society, it is difficult to function
without what was, only a short time ago
considered a luxury, the cellphone. From
stay-at-home moms, running around doing
errands and delivering the kids to one
activity or another, to businessmen on the
go between meetings, to teenagers, and
pre-teens, needing to stay in contact with
their parents and friends, the cellphone is
today as much a necessity in modern living
as the land-line telephone was twenty-five
years ago.

The QWERTY, the
standard typewriter/computer keyboard
layout, little changed since its creation
by Christopher Sholes more than 130 years
ago, has now become the industry standard
for handheld mobile devises whose use is
promoted as a texting/emailing/web-browsing
product, shoving the phone pad and the
touch-screen, onto the road to oblivion.
Since the radial dial was supplanted by the
phone pad several decades ago, virtually every
telephone device has included the standard
phone pad layout, where anyone seeking to
re-create a word to transmit over the device,
had to use the cumbersome method of figuring
out what numbers meant what letters. The age of
texting, however, has now changed this, and the
necessity of a faster, easier method for
typing on a phone has changed the hand
held device layout forever.
Taking its name from the first six characters
in the far left of the keyboard's top row of
letters, the QWERTY keyboard is one of those
human inventions to not only survive for
generations, never replaced by a "better
mousetrap", but to have one rebirth after
another. Limited to limited typewriter use - by
secretaries, students, authors, and not much
more - for decades, the advent of the personal
computer gave new life, and almost universal
use. to the keyboard and the QWERTY, and then
the age of texting has done it again in the
last couple of years, exposing the QWERTY to
the need for typing on the
go. |

No Reason for
Hospital Cellphone Bans
|
So you walk into
a hospital, whether it's because you're
rushing a sick friend to emergency,
visiting your mother-in-law, or checking in
yourself for some scary procedure, what's
the first thing your see blasted all over
the wall? NO CELLPHONES!
Have you ever really thought about this?
Especially because virtually everyone you see
working there, from doctors, to nurses, to the
guy washing the floor, has a cellphone!
Well, the verdict is in, and it's garbage.
Hospitals have used this tactic for years, for
a variety of reasons, none of which have
anything to do with the functioning of medical
equipment, as they would deceitfully have us
all believe.
The journal Anesthesia and Analgesia
originally laid this to rest more than four
years ago, but yet, not only those signs, but
their demonic enforcement, persist.
The authors of the study found that not only
were early reports of cellphone interference
with medical equipment actually confined to
single-event incidents rather than related to
any wide-spread problems, but that the use of
cellphones among hospital personnel promoted
better and faster care for patients.
Interestingly enough, at the time of the study,
research showed that among anesthesiologists
surveyed, one-half of the doctors who admitted
that used cellphones in their hospitals, stated
that they did so despite the fact that their
hospital prohibited their use.
In another later study, these findings were
fully verified.
Mayo Clinic researchers, in a study published
in the March, 2007 issue of Mayo Clinic
Proceedings, found that normal use of
cellphones results in no noticeable
interference with patient care equipment. They
stated that 300 tests were
performed over a five-month period in 2006,
without a single problem occurring.
Noting that cellphone bans inconvenience
patients and their families, their explicit
bottom line finding: Hospitals should alter or
abandon their bans on cellphone use.
Cellphone bans in hospitals are "annoying, and
you're doing it for no reason. It's all
voodoo," says Roy Soto, an anesthesiologist at
Stony Brook University in New York and lead
author of the paper published in Anesthesia
and Analgesia. |
For many people,
when deciding on a choice for a cellphone,
the factors they consider are not reception
quality, likelihood of dropped calls,
internet access, ringtone availability, or
the like, but rather, the design and
aesthetics of the phone. For teenagers,
especially teenage girls, and many woman
from all age groups, phone colors, sleek
designs, and crystals, charms, and even
stickers, are what they look for in
choosing a phone.
For the younger set, Hello Kitty, Sponge Bob,
and SuperGirl charms, as well as translucent
and glow-in-the dark shells, abound, to
decorate your own phone and/or case. This part
of the new "industry" is hugely successful, in
particular due to the fact that such
decorations are usually replaced on a weekly
basis. Disney, of course, has cashed-in on the
trend, and offers leather and suede cellphone
cases with the embossed profile of Mickey
Mouse, and, of course, some with embossed
initial "D"s.
Some cellphone companies, cashing in on the
fashion trend, have commissioned apparel
companies and designers to produce cellphone
cases, wristlets, even purses, to be made for
their phone products. Of course, it did not
take a shove from the phone companies to
influence clothing and accessory giants to
realize they could cash in on their own. Want
crystal initials or designs on your phone?
Swarovski will be glad to do it for you, for
about $300.00-400.00.
Clearly, cellphones are now a fashion
accessory. |
