YOUNG CRIMINALS

2007-05-23T09:02:00.000-07:00

Human societies have established rules and laws whose violation is always penalised in different ways depending on the gravity of the offence committed. People think that offenders are anti-social human being who can be rehabilitated through punishment.

Cities are producing a lot of tense relationships and there is a process of dehumanization. Young people are bombarded with movies, TV series and ads about fashionable cars, motorbikes and clothes which the normal teenagers cannot buy and they can feel frustration and they begin stealing little things to past big things.

I don’t want to say that stealing cars or clothes aren’t crimes, but is easier to catch a young thief and send him/ her to prison than study the reasons why young people commit these violent acts.

Teenagers are received less discipline than older people because their parents are too busy to worry about what their children do in the streets with their friends. Perhaps we should look at to real causes of child crimes and try to correct them.

POLLUTION

2007-05-23T07:15:00.000-07:00

We breathe polluted air, our cities are noisy, dirty and crowded and our rivers run with filthy water. Industry is the main guilty of this pollution. Industry ejects its smoke into the atmosphere and causes the acid rain and pours its waste into rivers. Industry manufactures products which reduce the ozone layer and threaten the environment.

Government controls and international agreements bind industry to clean up its acts and they bind it to manufacture ozone friendly products: deodorant sprays, refrigerators and air-conditioning.

Human being is the second principal guilty on a small scale, but with little acts we can produce less pollution, our planet is degraded and we must dedicate all our energies to its rehabilitation and eventual salvation.

DOLPHINS

2007-05-19T16:26:00.000-07:00

Dolphins have become a popular attraction at zoos in recent years. They are more interesting than lions, tigers, giraffes and seals because they are livelier and perform tricks, like circus animals. But although they are more willing to cooperate with the trainer than other animals in capacity, they get bored if they are asked to do the same trick twice. This is one reason for believing that they are very intelligent.

Dolphins are regarded as the friendliest creatures in the sea and stories of them helping drowning sailors have been common since Roman times.

We realize that they are better organised and their society is more complex than people believe. They look after other dolphins when they are ill, they care for pregnant mothers and protect the weakest in the community, as we do.

Some scientists have said that dolphins have a language, they communicate with each other with a non-verbal system of communication.

These animals are mammals as us, and they are intelligent too, but they are better adapted to their environment than we are and they find food more easily.

HAVE A CHILD

2007-05-19T15:35:00.000-07:00

All couples in the world want to have a family, when these children have to come is a very difficult question. Some people think that when you are young it’s the best. Nevertheless, having children while young has both advantages and disadvantages

On the plus side, the parents have more patience and they are physically very well.
For example, when a child isn’t quiet and wants all attention for him/her, when the baby runs all the time, when he/she doesn’t want to go to sleep, and he/she stays awake all the night and the parents can’t sleep. Moreover, their children are healthier than old parents’ children. In fact, young parents are helped by their families. On top of that, they will be young grandparents too, and they will be able to enjoy their grandchildren.

One disadvantage is that, the parents don’t have much money and they spend much time at work and the children stay with their grandparents or nursery school or babysitter. Normally these children have more love, for those people, than their father. Another point is that, young people, usually, are very immature and they aren’t conscious of their children. What is more, the young parents cannot go out with their friends, because they have got a child, and they can reflect their feeling among couple or among parents and child.

To sum up, although some people think that the young of today are ready for all, at this moment, the reality is that there aren’t well-paid jobs, flats are very expensive and the rent on the apartments are pretty dear too. In our society there are a few young parents, however there are a lot of mature years parents, because actually young people today want to enjoy life while they’re young and they have a child when they are about thirty.

THE QUEEN

2006-11-30T12:09:00.000-08:00

In class we’ve watched the Queen trailer, this film explain feelings and what happened inside the Royal family during the Lady Diana’s funeral.

The Queen is an old woman who thinks that the Royal family is an important statement and people have to respect because they are untouchable, and they’re never closer with their people.

The Queen, in my opinion, didn’t like Lady Diana because she was lover than her for her people, and she didn’t understand why.

I think that Lady Diana was cheated by her husband and his family, when she get married to Charles she was too young, and she thought that Charles fell in love with her and she believed in the fairy tales and Charles won the heart of Lady Diana.
The years passed and Lady Diana discovered that her husband had an affair with Camilla Parker and Charles didn’t fall in love for her and she understood that Royal Family knew Charles’ feelings before that they married.

Diana explained this story in TV, people didn’t understand because Charles was falling in love with Camilla, she’s ugly woman and Lady Diana was kind, pretty and humane.

Diana died in a car accident and this story is still strange.

The Queen didn’t understand her people and these days Elisabeth had to think about the people expect from the Royal family.

ANASTACIA

2006-11-20T12:10:00.000-08:00

Hello.

I’m going to explain the biography of Anastacia, she’s a singer of America

Anastacia was born in Chicago on 17 September 1973. She came from a very artistic family because her father is a singer on the Catskills Hotel and East coast nightclub circuits and Anastacia’s mother is an actress who worked in musical theatre on Broadway. She has got a sister Shawn, who’s a masseuse.

When she was 14 years old, she moved to New York with her mother and sister, because her parents divorced. At that moment the doctors diagnosed her chronic intestinal illness Crohn's.
Anastacia graduated from the Professional Children’s School in Manhattan where she met Christian Slater and River Phoenix. She was the one girl who didn’t work while she studied.

Anastacia and her older sister went to dance at club 1018, a dance club in Manhattan, where someone saw her dance and Anastacia was a dancer in Salt-N-Pepa's music videos.

In 1999 she was a finalist in a program on TV, “The Cut”, she didn’t win but very important people began to want to work with her. In this year, Anastacia signed with Epic/Daylight records. Her first album, “Not That Kind”, was released in June of 2000. The song which shot her to fame was ”I’m Outta Love”. Anastacia is more popular in Europe than her country. The second work was titled “Freak of Nature”, which was also successful in Europe in 2002.

In January of 2003, Anastacia was diagnosed with breast cancer. The cancer was removed in March and in September she was recording her third album, which was titled Anastacia. The first single from Anastacia was “Left outside alone”, it was also successful in Europe and Australia in 2004.

In 2005 she recorded a new CD “pieces of a dream”, the best of her three albums.

I like this woman because she has got a black voice but she’s a white woman, and she sings pop music. My song is “Left outside alone”. I can sing this song everyday, whenever, I think that pieces of a dream is a fantastic CD and I like all songs

I hope you listen to her and like her music, then tell me anything about her music.

ME

2006-11-11T11:38:00.000-08:00

Hello

Now I’m going to talk about me.

I like going out with my friends, first have a dinner and talk about us and our life, afterwards we go to the bar, pub o disco, finally we finish in some house to drink a coffee, and then everybody comes back at home.

I always go out with my old colleges of high school, we studied in the same centre, we’re ten people seven of us we studied together, in our group there are two couples since the high school, and the rest they meet the other person o couple with the rest of the group.

At this moment all of us are married, there are two children a boy and a girl and two couple are expecting a baby now, only one couple don’t have baby.

I’m studying English because I feel like speaking different languages but now I have an opportunity. When I’ll finish English I’m going to study German because it’s difficult and like this challenge.

I like going to gym, I like running, swimming and toning up, but I only go to it twice a week.

In this moment in my life I want to study anything else, but I don’t know that, because there are different and interesting degrees for me: architecture, law and journalism, they are very different but I think that everybody has a various worries.

I’m hoping for a change in my life but this don’t has arrived and I think that I have to do something, I don’ like my job, and I need to do different things to feel well with myself ..

STEREOTYPES

2006-11-11T11:19:00.000-08:00

Around the world there are many kinds of stereotypes, about job, about nationality, about women, about men, horoscopes…this is, how in some ways, men order different things.

About the Spanish people, the people think that we are always eating and drinking paella with sangria, but we have got the best diet, the Mediterranean diet, and the best cava and wine.

The people of other countries think, women are wearing de faralaes and men are wearing the bullfighter’s costume, but in this country there are important fashion designers, and there are shops of famous foreign fashion designers too.

Another famous or typical Spanish thing is la siesta, everybody believes that every day every Spanish person or Spaniard has a siesta, but actually Spanish is a stressed country like other country around the world and we haven’t got time to have a siesta.

About bullfighting, many people think that we all like that, but in Spain there are many organizations that they’re fighting almost this activity, because they don’t like seeing suffer them.

The stereotypes are an easy way for give adjectives to others, but sometimes these are lies o half true.
