Cathing Fire: I am not a big reader but i am reading the hunger games right now and i love the style of writing it catches you in the simplest of moments but it is easy to follow. I would like to finnish the series and that would mean reading this book.
Mocking Jay: This is also in the series that i would like to finnish
HP: The Chamber of Secrets: i want to read this because i have seen all the movies and read the first book but i feel like i wont be a ture fan until i have read all of the books.
A Game of Thrones: i am watching the telivision show right now and i absolutely love it, the fact that main characters are constantly killed off is a different style of writing than i have ever seen but i love it.
A Feast for Crows: i am watching the telivision show right now and i absolutely love it, the fact that main characters are constantly killed off is a different style of writing than i have ever seen but i love it.
A Storm of Swords: i am watching the telivision show right now and i absolutely love it, the fact that main characters are constantly killed off is a different style of writing than i have ever seen but i love it.
Clash of Kings i am watching the telivision show right now and i absolutely love it, the fact that main characters are constantly killed off is a different style of writing than i have ever seen but i love it.
A Dance with Dragons: i am watching the telivision show right now and i absolutely love it, the fact that main characters are constantly killed off is a different style of writing than i have ever seen but i love it.
The Adoration of Jenna Fox: The thing that drew me to this book origionaly was the cover, yes i know dont judge a book by its cover but i read the back and the story is verry interesting, it manages to make a mystery without any initial action witch sounds really cool.
Cut: this book is all about people who cut themselves, it has always interested me how and why people would do this and this is the book that will help me understand as it follows a girl in an institution that cuts herself.

“The death of the pc is apon us”
are words that a few of us never want to hear including me. Even though it will
come some day all I can do is hope that it does not come soon. Sadly we are one
day closer to that becoming true. Yesterday
amd, one of the leading processor manufactuars stock droped to a 3 year low of $2.89.
The reason it droped? Well amd made a statement saying that they did not think
that the handheld and tablet market would hit them so hard and they did not get
ready for it.
I still
believe that the pc has several years ahead of it nomatter what tablet comes
out. I say this because as of right now I see tablets and any other handheld
device as nothing but web browsers, I see them as nothing but “overrated crappy
all in one pc’s”. The true processing power will always be in a desktop
personaly, unless a new micro technology comes out verry soon.
Can our generation accomplish anything?
People often question our
generation and ask will we ever acomplish anything, anything other than
videogame highscores and most tweets in a day. Well I do believe that we “meliniums”
will acomplish something. In fact yesterday we did, Felix Baumgartner broke several world records. He set the
record for the “Highest Maned Baloon Flight”, “Highest Freefall Distance” and
the “First Human To Break The Sound Barrier”. I am not personaly man enough to
acomplish what he did but he is just an example to what our generation can
acomplish.
By his side as the lead
commander was Joe Kittinger the person who held the prevous records. Though joe
will not try and break felix’s record he was proud that someone could have done
it. Once felix landed in joy he sat on his knees and gave a fist pump. Felix
said this “I would love if there was a young
guy sitting next to me asking what my advice is, wanting to break my record.”

The Death of CD
Do you still use CD's? Technology enthusiast that are old enough to remember the date the first CD's came out can never agree on a date so just like in the article "After 30 years, is it time to bid farewell to CD's" we are going to say October 1, 1982 on that day Billy Joel released 52ND street. It was the first CD to be released on the market. On that same day Sony released the CDP-101, the first CD player to hit the market. It sure has taken awhile but CD's are finally dying on the market.
I believe it already has to a certain extent., how many people do you know or see that walk around with CD players, i know that i don't in fact i have about 12gb of music alone on my iphone. That's all you do see people with these days, ipods, iphones, androids, tablets, and various mp3 players. the average person now downloads their music from various sites including itunes, zune, beatport and amazon. there is only a few things that places like that lack and that is DRM free and excellent music quality. i still buy Cd's from time to time if i want to make a rip of it with almost perfect quality, and if i buy a CD i can burn that on any computer i want!
I also believe one of the biggest industries that use Cd's are video games, no they do not use the average CD-RW or DVD-RW but a CD is a CD weather it is Blueray or any other type. that doesn't mean that the video game industry is perfect either, they still have their faults and one of the biggest competitors to console games is steam. buy it download it anywhere and never have to worry about scratches. more than likely that is where the next generation of gaming is coming to anyways. Movies is also a big CD industry, i personally don't know anybody who buys there movies through itunes or amazon and i also don't. If i want to buy a movie i will buy a physical copy at walmart.
No matter how big these industries are the matter of the fact is that the cd aspect of them all is dying, it wont be around for much longer. Gartner in the last half of 2011 predicted that the 15billion$ market would fall a huge 5billion$ in 2015 so no matter how much you like them they are going just like VCR's.
