The document discusses different views on censorship. It argues that some level of censorship is acceptable for educating children by restricting inappropriate images and language.

The Future of TV - Innovation/Interaction
Hitachi unveiled a new gesture-controlled TV prototype at CES that allows users to control the TV through hand gestures without needing a remote control. The TV uses a camera and software to track hand movements and translate them into commands, such as using an open palm to pause playback or a twisting motion to change channels. The gesture control technology could make TV operation more natural and intuitive for viewers if Hitachi is able to refine the software and reduce lag times between gestures and responses.

Some of Jodi Picoult’s Critically Acclaimed Books
Jamie Simon-Wainick is a real estate agent based in New Jersey. She graduated summa cum laude from the University of Michigan with a degree in psychology. With nearly two decades of experience, she is a hard-working full-time successful realtor in the industry. As a hobby, Jamie Simon loves to read novels by Jodi Picoult.
Jodi Picoult is a contemporary novelist born in 1966. In her career as a writer, she has authored about 27 books and has sold over 40 million copies making her a best-selling author.
She is known for her unique writing style and her way of addressing problematic and often controversial issues. Her books have been described to be thought-provoking. One of her thought-provoking novels is "Nineteen Minutes," which she released in 2007.
In this thriller piece, a tragic mass shooting that lasts nineteen minutes takes place in a sleepy tiny town in New Hampshire. The story examines how the shook people of the town face the gruesome incident and how they all contributed to the disaster.
Another of her best-sellers is "Small Great Things,'' released in 2016. The novel borders on the topic of race and discrimination. In the book, an African American nurse named Ruth is charged with the murder of a newborn left in her care in the hospital's nursery where she works.
However, the twist in the story is that the child's parents were white supremacists who ordered her not to touch their child. There are back and forth arguments on her criminal liability for freezing when the child slipped into cardiac distress in this book. The thrilling trial in this book made it an immediate best-seller.

2. When referring to the patients who went to Cuba, it's better to say "American patients" rather than "American's ill persons" for clarity.
3. The word "theme" should be "them" in the sentence "18 thousand of theme died every year".
4. "Cuba's doctors" rather than just "doctors" to specify these were Cuban doctors.

The document discusses censorship in society. The author argues that mass media creates a false image of reality by avoiding controversial topics that could expose political corruption, economic scandals, or environmental disasters due to fears of losing advertising revenue. While democracies have laws against censorship, there are no laws against self-censorship in media. As a result, the public is kept in the dark about important issues and lives in a dream where the truth is not portrayed. The author sees self-censorship as a major problem but is unsure how to fight against it.

I am really looking forward to reading next novel of this author.” Paco Tolosa, The New York Times Book Review. “ This novel is one of the best latest reading we can find in bookshops. Surely, a delightful present for action lovers this Christmas. The author carries us into a story plenty of intrigue, murders and lies.” Eugenia Berto, The Washington Post. “ Anyone who enjoys amazing novels should rush into the nearest bookstore and pick up “The Firm”. The book is an exiciting legal thriller with the ability to entertain the reader until the last page.” Richard Fisher, The Times.
