Reading Journal

What i've read over the weekend was this one book my mom got me from Borders. Here is a quote from it. The title is "Fragile Earth, Views of a Changing World" It is a book from the editors of "Collin" some weird book company that i do not know of. The book is basically full of pictures and it shows the comparison of and how Global Warming has affected our environment and world. Here is a quote from the book itself " Turn on the television, read any newspaper-one cannot avoid stories of the major changes that are taking place on Earth. Hurricanes and tornadoes in the Midwest. flooding along the coasts, melting of polar ice caps. What's going on?

My opinion on the Media and perspective.

The media, could be anywhere, from New York to the desert. The media has a lot of power. They basically control the entertainment of common human households these days. Also these are alot of shoe brands. Computers are also one of the main contributors to the media. Due to very popular websites among teenage children, like MySpace, Youtube, Facebook, etc. I believe that the media these days has too much power, and due to the idioticity of many people that just basically fund the media to support some of their stupid items. But these is normal, since alot of people believe that the higher the price of an item, the better it probaly it is. And they also prefer quality over quantity. Here is a list of many shoe brands these days. I got this from Wikipedia.org

Reading Journal

This week, i've read an article, about an old woman who was savagely assaulted by a man, and while she was on the ground beggin for help, everyone else around her did not help. Because everyone else thought she was drunk, and i think that in england, it is very common to see people drunk at night. Here is the link to the article.

Reading Journal (3 Days before the POL's)

This week i read an article in a newspaper concerning the hotel attacks in Mumbai, India. There were some things that the news (CNN, AND OTHER MEDIA TV SHOWS) did not contain. For example, very explicit pictures were not released including one showing many dead victims on the ground in a bloodbath. And a picture showing an explosion on top of this Mumbai hotel. And the owner of this one hotel was also found dead, along with his 14 year old son, baby, and wife. And this concludes my reading journal for the week.

Here is the link for the article.
