Even Google Is Blocked With Apps for iPhone ...

Google which is the world’s famous search engine has been blocked with apps for iPhone. In this week, Google had submitted for review in hopes that they would be added to the company’s App Store, but Apple turned down two applications. The rejections of apps by Apple could dim the halo that has encircled the iPhone since it first became a lucrative platform for outside developers. The lengthy and opaque approval process required to get anything into the App Store has long been a source of frustration for iPhone developers and users alike.

Ephemera : anything short-lived.

The Celebrity who I always admire is Angelina Jolie who has got the best actor of Oscar of action movies. I have liked her since I watch her movie called “Tomb Raider.” I like her because when I watched her movie, I feel that she has so many talents to play the role of action movie. She looks beautiful, sexy, and smart at the same time. I have never missed her movie. The last movie was wanted I had been watching for five times. Even though she already had her baby, she still looks as the same.

I don’t want to be a famous because I love to have a private time for anyone who is my love. I don’t like other talk about me whether it is good or bad.

Yes, I do. In my mind, celebrity has always a good-looking when they go outside.

Kid Goes Into McDonald’s and Orders ... Yogurt?

Kid goes into McDonald’s and orders yogurt from The New York Times

The main idea of this article is American children trend to eat healthy foods than junk foods. Chicken nuggets, burgers, fries and colas remain popular, but soup, yogurt, fruit, grilled chicken and chocolate milk are on the rise. There are many restaurants which try to include the healthy foods in the meal such as, Burger King announced three new kids’ meals that include small burgers, sliced apples that look like French fries, reduced-sodium chicken tenders, calcium-fortified apple juice and fat-free chocolate milk. McDonald’s offers apples and yogurt, and Wendy’s kids’ meals include mandarin oranges. In addition, milk consumption is on the rise and colas are down.

The interesting detail that I have learned from this article is that it is better for many kids’ health if they can change every meal from junk food to healthy foods.

One vocabulary word and it's meaning in this article; Obesity: is a medical condition in which excess body fat has accumulated to the extent that it may have an adverse effect on health.
