The art of happiness
Nearly every time you see him, he's laughing or at least smiling. And he makes everyone else around him feel like smiling. He's the Dalai Lama, the spiritual and temporal leader of Tibet, a Nobel Prize winner, and an increasingly popular speaker and statesman. Why is he so popular? Even after spending only a few minutes in his presence you can't help feeling happier. If you ask him if he's happy, even though he's suffered the loss of his country, the Dalai Lama will give you an unconditional yes. What's more, he'll tell you that happiness is the purpose of life, and that “the very motion of our life is towards happiness". How to get there has always been the question. He's tried to answer it before, but he's never had the help of a psychiatrist to get the message across in a context we can easily understand.

Cyberbullying is harassment through electronic means such as telephone text messages, social media such as Facebook and Twitter or online blogs and bulletin boards. In normal bullying, students are given a daily break from the torment as bully and victim each go to their separate homes. But for victims of cyberbullying, there is no reprieve, as the abuse enters into their private lives. In the US, there are at least 44 states that have anti-bullying laws on the books. While only six of them use the actual word “cyberbullying", 31 others have laws that specifically mention “electronic harassment".
Prosecution in the UK is a little more difficult. While all schools are required to have anti-bullying policies in place, cyberbullying itself is not named as a criminal offence. Offenders in the UK would have to be charged under various other laws, including the Protection from Harassment Act of 2003. This makes prosecution much more difficult.
Authorities agree that in order to stop cyberbullying, there has to be parental involvement. Parents need to be vigilant about their children's access to technology. They should monitor their children's use of social media, especially children under the age of 14. Bullies are not going to simply disappear, but parents can go a long way in protecting their children from being bullied. Go! English, ano II, n. 14 (fragmento).
De acordo com o texto, nos Estados Unidos, alguns estados têm leis específicas para assédio via meios eletrônicos. Já no Reino Unido, a instauração de processos contra praticantes de cyberbullying é mais difícil porque
Adicciones y broncas: ¿Por qué dejé Facebook?
Pese al indudable éxito de la marea azul de Facebook, algunas personas optan por un mundo menos conectado. “Yo lo dejé porque era increíblemente adictivo y perdía muchísimo tiempo", explica Sonia (nombre ficticio), una médica madrileña de 35 años. En cada visita los usuarios de la red suelen pasar 20 minutos en media.
Las personas que deciden abandonar el lugar suelen argumentar parecidas razones: pérdida de tiempo, relaciones superficiales o falta de privacidad. La última parte es en la que la red social ha avanzado más, en gran parte obligada por las autoridades de diferentes países. Desde hace un tiempo, el usuario tiene más opciones sobre qué quiere compartir y con quién.
“En mi caso hubo un motivo concreto, una bronca con un familiar muy cercano. Después del enfado, fui a excluirlo de la lista de amigos. Pero, en el momento de hacerlo, me sentí ridículo al reparar en lo enganchado que yo estaba a esa red y pensé que mejor me eliminaba a mí mismo. Suena a broma pero ocurrió así", explica Alberto (nombre ficticio), que afirma que se mantiene en otras redes, como Twitter, por motivos laborales.
