The
International Consumer Electronics Show (CES) is a trade
show held each January in Las Vegas, Nevada, and is
sponsored by the Consumer Electronics Association. It is
a trade-only show and is not open to the general public.
At the show, many previews of products are introduced,
or new products are announced. The show is held at the
Las Vegas Convention Center with additional venues used
for specific specialties. The CES is now considered one
of the major technology-related trade shows, following
the cancellation of Comdex. The annual International
Consumer Electronics Show starts January 8th,
and is traditionally as much a boisterous celebration of
all things technology as it is a trade show. To learn

Elvis Presley Birthday Celebration 2009 |
Thursday, January 8 - Sunday, January 11 |
|
|
Elvis
Aaron Presley (January 8, 1935 - August
16, 1977; middle name sometimes written
Aron) was a cultural icon, who is
commonly known simply as "Elvis", "The
King of Rock 'n' Roll" or "The King". In
1968, he returned to live music in a
television special, and performed across
the U.S., notably in Las Vegas.
Throughout his career, he set records
for concert attendance, television
ratings and recordings sales. He is one
of the best-selling and most influential
artists in the history of popular music.
Health problems, drug dependency and
other factors led to his death at age
42. Learn more about Elvis
