Besides JFK or Franz Ferdinand?

I don't need an incredibly expensive one, I just want one to create new melodies or make new versions of classical songs I like.

I remember that the Ministry had something had to do with it. But someone had sent them, right?

I was creating my account in Pottermore from my BlackBerry and when they asked me for the human confirmation (the weird letter that you have to write below) it kept kelling me that it was incorrect, this means that I can't create my account! I kept trying for nearly an hour, and I still can't do it.

What can I do?

I’m outstanding in every class, except in math. I take particular classes, I study my *** off for the exams but I still fail them. I am scared to fail the report card because I already failed a class last year (World History) and my parents were angry at me for ages. If I fail again I don’t know what will happen, I try so hard to raise my grades but I can’t and I don’t know what else to do! What my parents think about me is very important for me, they don’t care about how much effort I put in a class, they just care about me passing it with excellent notes, and I’m frustrated.

What can I do?

Literature is characterized by its capacity to touch people, there are so many books that I've read that have given me chills. But what does Harry Potter have that makes it so powerful in people's lives? My main question is: Why Harry Potter and not others?

Considering Moody, who died during this departure

"Pienso que sólo debemos leer libros de los que muerden y pinchan. Si el libro que estamos leyendo no nos obliga a despertarnos como un puñetazo en la cara, ¿para qué molestarnos en leerlo? ¿Para que nos haga felices, como dice tu carta? Cielo santo, ¡seríamos igualmente felices si no tuviéramos ningún libro! Los libros que nos hagan felices podríamos escribirlos nosotros mismos, si no nos quedara otro remedio. Lo que necesitamos son libros que nos golpeen como una desgracia dolorosa, como la muerte de alguien a quien queríamos más que a nosotros mismos, libros que nos hagan sentirnos desterrados a los bosques más remotos, lejos de toda presencia humana, algo semejante al suicidio. Un libro debe ser el hacha que rompa el mar helado dentro de nosotros.”

Wait, before you answear please read this. I am making an essay about Harry Potter, if it's just for children or not. So I have arguments that say that it can also be good for adults to read it, but I also need arguments that say it is JUST for children.

Does anybody think that Harry Potter is just for children? If you do, why?

I have to make an essay about any kind controversial topic (abortion, rape, gay marriage, mainstream music, etc., whatever I am interested in) and give my opinion about it. This is one of the most important tasks that I will have in my high school history, I have to start this month and hand it in December (yeah, huge reserch). Can you help me to pick a topic?

I wanted to make about abortion, rape or gay marriage, but they won’t let me because those are way too common topics. So these are my ideas:

The Tunisia Effect (Egypt, Lybia, etc.)

Harry Potter (it really is controversial)

Social Networks

I really am desperate so if you have any other ideas can you help me please?

I had a tumblr account, but people from my school started following me (i don't want them to follow me) so I created a new one. But now a couple of them are following me again. What can I do to make them unfollow me? Blocking the user is useless, because that deprives me from their posts but that doesn't deprive them from mine.
