A US filmmaker who lay trapped beneath Haiti’s earthquake rubble for nearly three days survived in part thanks to a medical application installed on his iPhone, he told a television station Thursday. this article is basically talking about the hatie situation and how many people continue to die everday. i think that this is tragic but cant be changed. I feel horribly for all of these people that have lost their lives or their loved ones lives.

Blog #85 – Who were the major award winners names and categories at the Golden Globe awards on January 17, 2010?  http://www.cnn.com/2010/SHOWBIZ/TV/01/15/golden.globes.list/index.html?hpt=Sbin

There were many award winners in the golden globes, but i think thatthe most satisfying of all was Avatar. Avatar was named one of the best movies of all time. But i think what stood out for me the most was that johney depp won actor of the decade. I thought that this was well deserved on depp’s part and am so very glad he got this honor

Blog #84 – Read the following article.  What did you learn about the video game Call of Duty?  http://ca.news.finance.yahoo.com/s/13012010/2/biz-finance-activision-blizzard-says-call-duty-crossed-1-billion.html

 I didnt learn anything new, the truth is this game is the most popular game in the world today. i think that every boy i know has at least tried the game if not own it and are adicted to it. I think there are positives and negitives to this article, the positives are it keeps people from doing bad things and keeps them occupied, but games like this also makes boys fantisise about being in a war and making them more and more violent in my opinion.

Blog #83 – Read the following article.  Why are Jay Leno and Conan O’Brien attacking/taking aim on each other?  http://ca.news.yahoo.com/s/capress/100114/entertainment/us_tv_late_night_

they were attacing eachother because O’Brien said he wasn’t willing to move the “Tonight” show back a half-hour to make way for Leno. this obviously made leno mad, and therefore leno attached back saying, “Seven months!” Leno said. “How did he get that deal? We only got four.” the feud went on and on. Hopfully these boys will pull it together to help the ratings go up

Blog #82 – Read the following article about a magazine name change?   What did you learn?  http://ca.news.yahoo.com/s/afp/100112/oddities/canada_media_sex_offbeat

i learned that it is a great possibility that a winnipeg magazine might have to rename  intself because the name is sometimes slang for aa womans gentiles. i think this is very stupid, this magazine started in 1920, this term was obviously not slang back then. there must be lots of things that have changed since 1920 but i think that it is absolutly obserd that they would have to change the name for such a silly reason.

Blog #80 – Watch the top ten viral videos of 2009:  http://www.time.com/time/specials/packages/article/0,28804,1945379_1945171,00.html?cnn=yes   Which do you think are the top 3 and why?

My favorite by far is the wedding, i think that this wedding was very creative and funny, the best part was that no one expected that to happen they expected a traditional wedding. the second i think is susan boyle. I think that this video just goes to show how you can NOT judge a book by its cover. Susan boyle is a major inspiration. the third one is  the boy who got drugged in the detist, this is just simply funny.
