I think its really great and really scary because of the jump, and the lesson ive learned from this is that if you keep practicing so much that you wil do great later on.

Marvin Goldstein
Goldstein began musical training at age 9, and by 18 was awarded a music scholarship to Tel Aviv University School of Music. He then began to get his  Bachelor and Master of Music degrees at Florida State University in Tallahassee. His excellence was achieved because of the trainin when he was small and all those practice hours payed off. Technology could have impacted Marvin in which he could have been really famous and the songs would have probably be different.
 
Reflection:
In this example the excellence achieved was that practice makes perfect and if you keep on pursuing your dream that one day it will come just dont give up on it. The lesson of life that I learned from this is that if you practice everyday growing up older and oler that you would master something that you wouldnt think you would hvae mastered.

Computer Science Inovations

These are the 15 newly Computer Science Inovations:
  • ATMs
  • Digital photography/videography
  • Social networking via the Internet
  • Online shopping/ecommerce/auctions
  • Email
  • Mobile phones
  • PC/laptop computers
  • Bar codes and scanners
  • Bio fuels
  • GPS systems
  • Internet, broadband, WWW (browser and html)
  • DNA testing and sequencing/human genome mapping
  • Fiber optics
  • Non-invasive laser/robotic surgery (laparoscopy)
  • Anti-retroviral treatment for AIDS
A Computer Science Innovation I would like is Antiretroviral treatment for AIDS, the Antiretrovial drug helps maintain control of the AIDS virus and help so it wouldnt spread anymore.
This would impact a good amount of people that have AIDS and it would solve people from being scared of people judging them because of some virus that isnt contagious. Ithink this innovation is great and will help out alot of people.
