newspapers are a thing of the past dabatebase
Around 1440 German inventor Johannes Gutenberg invented one of the most important and influential inventions of the second millennium, the printing press, and it was from the advent of this technology that the newspaper was born. Newspapers went from strength to strength and they became an important part of democracy. George Washington in 1788 stated that:
“For my part I entertain a high idea of the utility of periodical publications; insomuch as I could heartily desire, copies of ... magazines, as well as common Gazettes, might be spread through every city, town, and village in the United States. I consider such vehicles of knowledge more happily calculated than any other to preserve the liberty, stimulate the industry, and ameliorate the morals of a free and enlightened people.” 1
In the 21st Century, however, with the availability of other forms of media, such as TV and the Internet, the once highly important newspaper entered a state of significant and rapid decline in many places across the world with readerships entering a seemingly never-ending downward spiral. This has left many commentators to suggest that newspapers are a thing of the past, Phillip Meyer in The Vanishing Newspaper suggests, by extrapolation of current trends, that by the first quarter of 2043 the newspaper industry in the US will be completely extinct. Others suggest, however, that this is overstating the decline of newspapers, it could be suggested that there will always be a demand for printed word despite the current decline, for example in the UK on the 26th October 2010 the first daily newspaper to be launched for 24 years hit the shelves and as of April 2011 the “I” newspaper had a regular readership of over 160,000 2 suggesting that perhaps that some demand still exists.
What is most certainly true of newspapers today is that they are, in the developed world at least, losing their readerships, however, does this necessarily mean that there is no longer a place for them in the modern media landscape, are newspapers dead or are the rumors of their death greatly exaggerated?

Can't resist the online sales? By Morgan Quinn
If you are struggling with online shopping
compulsion, here are some tips to help combat the problem:
Block Internet access to your favorite
sites.
You can restrict your computer from
accessing certain sites by blocking them on your preferred browser. You can go
through the entire operating system or network router, or you can use
web-filtering software to automatically block them for you. A service like
OptenetPC acts as a bouncer between your computer and the Internet; it completely
blocks you from accessing certain sites. Simply pick which kind of sites you
want to block (shopping, pornography and violence are just a few options), and
let a friend choose the password so you won’t be tempted to disable it.
Delete shopping apps from mobile devices.
Shopping apps are particularly dangerous
for all consumers – not just addicts. Just visit a site like appcrawlr.com and
read the reviews on the most popular shopping apps. You’ll see testimonials
like, “My online shopping addictions is totally optimized by this app,” and
“I’m starting to think convenience is contributing to my shopping addiction.”
And that’s exactly right – shopping apps
make it way too convenient to spend money online. There is little opportunity
to contemplate purchases, and the trigger for the addiction is right at your
fingertips – it often takes just one or two clicks to complete a sale. Delete
any and all shopping apps from your mobile devices. You don’t need them.
Retrain your brain.
Retail therapy is very real. A study last
year from the University of Michigan Ross School of Business showed that going
shopping and choosing to buy something actually reduces sadness in people. And
another 2013 survey of 1,000 adults by The Huffington Post found that 1 in 3
people shop to deal with stress.
Instead of relying on retail therapy to
lift your mood, teach your brain to seek out a different experience. What
emotion is driving the compulsion? Are you feeling sad or out of control? Are
you just looking for a thrill? Identify the negative feeling, and look for an
alternative solution. Many experts and recovering addicts recommend
self-soothing techniques such as exercising, calling a friend, writing, reading
a book, repeating positive affirmations or even volunteering for a charity to
beat the blues.
