I remember when I was a kid, we used to play with robots; a toy that had a light and some nice motions to it. At the time I never thought that one day robots could be used in big and very sensitive operations. I always asked myself the question of how much can robots be useful for humans. Continue reading

Mobile phones & me!
Hey everyone!
This time I’m going to write about my experience with mobile phones. I’m not the best person to talk about technology, so I’ll skip that part and just talk about the use of mobile phones.
I had one which was actually very cool. It was smaller than my palm and it had a touch screen and a very easy menu to use. It didn’t have any crazy or fancy applications and the battery lasted for almost 5 days. I ‘d always forget where I had put the charger. Continue reading
Sport Cams
If you are one of those people who want to record action moments in your life, skating, track, trails, mountains, sky, speed or even under water HD quality, then this is what you need. A Sports Camera.

One of the main companies is “Gopro” and the second is “Kodak”. Each brand has its own advantages and disadvantages. Continue reading

Why should we participate in sport activities?
During the last couple of years, the technology has developed so much, that almost every person’s everyday life is connected to computers somehow. Many young people prefer to stay home and play video games, instead of going out and doing some physical activity. People from all ages spend hours surfing the internet, because they have some free time after a busy day at work. Continue reading
The world of 3D
3d image design – Constantinos Christoudias
As technology evolves so does software . You’ve probably noticed that the most successful movies that recently came out are 3D movies (3d modelling). In addition 3D games are becoming the only option of gamers nowadays.

“That Summer”
Ant1’s new television drama series called ‘That Summer’ started airing on TV this October. Its story is based on the tragic events that happened in Cyprus in 1974. Its aim seems to be to show people the pain, suffering and struggle the tragic events triggered throughout the life of a 7 year old girl that had to live through it and unfortunately was left without a father. She is reminded of the Turkish invasion every year on the 20th of July when she hears the civil defence sirens, and this is where her story begins. It is a very emotional series that awakens the past for many Cypriots that lived through those events but it also recreates events for many Cypriots who were not yet born when they actually happened. Continue reading

My Fall Semester 2012 – A success story!
The fall semester finally started a few weeks ago. You may wonder why this semester is so different than all the others and why I am writing about it.
Well for me the whole year is going to be different. Usually here at Unic you are allowed to have 5 courses per semester unless you are in your final year, then you can have 6, and according to everyone with that amount of work it is very hard, especially in the Law Department. Apart from that you need quite a high GPA in order to be entitled to have an extra course. Continue reading
