The Barça - Madrid

This match is very speciaal for the people who are from spain, because it represents the battle between two life styles and two ways of thinking that has been in all our history, and this match makes us to remember why we are here and why we are different between people from our country.
This world event, for me, it's the return to the middle age wher the catalans were fighting against the Spain like lions. When I see this match, I feel like a lion fighting against the enemy for show what's my place here. It's a feeling that I can't explain it better, because it's special and exciting.

Ghost Rider

Ghost rider it's a very good film with very good actors, and it's about a mith, I don't know if exists, of the bounty hunter of the demon. The demon use the debility of a person who needs help for have a servent for kill his enemies.
I think that it's agood film and the graphics and the special efects, like the fire, are very well. It's a film like some oters, but it has something in his story that make it so good for me. I have to say that the films where there are acction, and above if it's original action, I like them so much and I cannot close the TV or stand up and go out, they are my favourites.

Mandarin Fish

The mandarin fish it's a small and brightly-colored fish from the south of Australia. It's one of the two animals with blue colouring because of cellular pigment. They are slow when they move and they usually live in the reefs.
I've kown about this beauty animal in a TV documental an I was surprised for his variety of colours and the first time that I've seen it I think that it seems the rainbow, with so much colours and brightness. The mandarin fis has become one of my favorites animals, for his slow movement and his brightly and colourful scales.

Paper books are dead?

It's true that in our society we try to make the things easier with the technology but I think that there are some things that we cannot replace for the technology and modern things.
Paper books aren't dead and they would never die. When you go to a bookshop you can look for what is about the book and if there are special things like exercises, in the book that you need with only a feew seconds, and the way of buy it is faster than the e-books because this ones you have to download them.
Secondly, the paper books are easy to use and also we cannot leave them and use modern technologies (e-books) because are new things and the traditional ones are boring. If we make a change like this, in my opinion, we have to do it because it makes the live more comfortable not because we seem important and rich.
To sum up, I would say that the paper books won't die and are more practical than the e-books and the modern technology don't have to replace the traditional things only because are the future, the tradition, it's also the future and if we understand this we could make a better world.

A world without cars

This new is about a revolutive suggestion and this mades it more impirtant. The new it's a suggestion for a futurist world where the people don't go with cars, they go by bicycle. I think that this imaginative world is not possible because the people who have to do long distances for go to work, to the school, go shopping or also go with the friends, they prefere the faster way to go there.
In my opinion, we live in a stressful world where the things have to be done at the same time and without mistakes, and we don't permit to our body and our mind to relax and forget the things.

Jazz- classical fusion

The news is about a two big pianists from different kinds of music that are playing together the piano and they learn things from the other and also they change their music. The two artists are very happy for learn new things from the other and they enjoy so much playing new kinds of music.
I think that the music is an important way for transmit feelings and to send a message to the people. This two great pianists, in my opinion, know this and they also know that with one kind of music, you can't do anything, because your music is listened by the population who thinks that it's interesting your music, but if you take some things from other music, you can be listenned by more people and you will arrive to more persons that maybe your music can help them.


Pianistic meeting

The end of course

This year we have to work more, that the other years since the subjects are much more difficult and put much more work to us to give. In these dates the nerves that we spend more difficult in order to approve of those subjects that we find them also influence for us a lot. The nerves can still be more betrayers when what you play is the course. Therefore I make a request to the teachers in order to that they reduce the work to be able to study more calmly for the examinations of passing. Tank you a lot!

Dance of the bees

The evolutions of the bees in the dance brief of two things: the pollen and the nectar. For this method, the working bee that has found a source of jar food, without abandoning the beehive to point out to their partners non alone the direction of the food, but also the distance that it have to search. How, minor is more far away the number of turns that she makes in his dance. The angle of the dance on the beehive briefs the sun of the respect direction. His dance transmits an information that for us a mystery is still the form in that they receive the message.

The old age

Many times when we go to the high school or stroll for the streets, often we see to the grandparents who go out to sunbathe and walk. What boring have to be to arrive at the final of the way of the life without knowing what to do, with the only ilusion of eat, sleep an go out to stroll? I think that it would be a lot well that their relatives and friends from time to time to break down their daily routine and cheer the day with different things. I believe that we should respect our grandparents all together because often we forget some and all values that they have taught us keep on the cupboard.

The blackbird

The Trichampions

Now I wil talk about a special football team that his game has travelled all over the world making enjoy to the world. I think that you know wich team is it, if not i will say it to you in the final of this post.
Well this team came of doing a couple of bad seasons that went to do changes in the staff. The most important change was the trainer, the board said goodbye at the last trainer, that has done a good work the previous years winning the champions and some leagues, this was a moment for changes and the board put the trainer of the squad of the team at the head of the team. They have also sign some good players of others teams, but the revelations was at the players who were or has been at the squad of the team, this players have done that the new team was better that the others.
But this new project was a little bit youngerand we don't have so many confiance with them, and in the begininng of the season we could confirm our distrust because they didn't start it very well but immiedelty they started to play and win game after game and they have give to us, the supporters, the enjoyment of look our team playing with the superiority of a Saint. In this season we have done lots of historic things but the best thing was the humilliation of our principal rival in his stadium, this was a satisfaction of being part of an spetial team like this. But this was only the begining of the great things. The next week of this match the team has played the first final that he has win, the Cup final. But this was only the begining because the same week they have win the league without playing his match,but this was nothing the best thing was still arriving. The Champins, the third of the history of this club, was the final of the supporters prties and the conclusion of the best season that the club has done in his history.
Well I think that you know wich team is, if not, you aren't of this world but now you will be part of this special world, the team is the great team of FC Barcelona

In 1956 Ernesto has initiated the training in guerrilla war under the control of the Spanish colonel Alberto Bayo Giroud at the mess of Chalco (Mexican state), there the Che has stood out in the military training and turned into one of the leaders of the group. Between the 20th an 24th of June of 1956 the Che, Castro and the Mouvement of 26 July were arrested by the Mexican police. In the prision the Che confessed that he was communist, that they were preparing themselves to realize a revolution in Cuba and that he was partial to the armed revolutionary fight in the whole Latin America. Because of this Fidel, when he was liberated, went to Cuba where he realized negotiations with the mexican police for liberate the Che. The Che was a tolerant and a kind person, in the revolution he evited some executions and he heal the enemies injuries.

This competition is divided on four phases, the regular season, where participate 24 teams, the Top 16, with 16 teams, the quarterfinal round and the final four. The first phase consists on four groups with six teams in each group.

Liverpool

Now I will talk about a football team: the team that will eliminate the R.Madrid from the champions leage, one team with the best fans all over the world and with one of the best stadium of the world. I think you know wih team is but if not this team is the Liverpool. His coach is Rafa Benitez and this team is considered one of the bests teams of England.The stadium is Anfield and, always, all the fans sing his anthem that is one of the most popular anthems of football teams. His anthem is the famous "You'll never walk alone". Liverpool, surnamed the reds, was founded by John Houlding for different echonomical problems with the other city team the Everton. Liverpool has supported two big dissasters: one in the Champions Leage finals where some english hooligans provoqued a landslide that killed 39 persons of the other team, the other disaster was in the semi-finals of the English Cup where 96 fans of Liverpool died crushed. But these big disasters didn't stop the Liverpool, because in his list of victories there are 5 Champions Leagues, 3 UEFA cups, 18 leagues, and lots of national cups.

Foreign Languages

As you know, in the exam we've to do a writting about the foreign languages. Well, me, I don't know what I've written in it, but anything related with the foreign languages. Now I will try to do a littel explanation about it for do the writting as you have done.
Learn a foreign languages are one of the best cultural things that we can do in our lives because with different languages we can communnicate with the persons of other countries, and also understand them. The foreign languages are also important fo go on holidays and make possible that in the different hotels , restaurants, bars, museums, or otherpublic places understand you and that the holidays go well.
The problem that the languages have is that you need to spend a lot of money and time for learnt it well and to be able to have a conversation with more facilities or more difficulties. One of the other prooblems of the languages is that you, maybe, could mix the different languages between theirselves and this makes that you don't know any language completly well.
The different languages are some tools for have more culture and also for know different cultures and also different people from all over the world, and also for understand the different problems between some cultures.

NASA

Well, now I will talk about an organization that do the most important missions in the space. Nasa was formed in 1958 by the National Aeronautics and Space Act, and it's resposible for the space program and for the long-term civilan and military research. It was created because, in 1957, the sovietics launch the first satellit (Sputnik 1), this called the attention of United States and after several months of debat, they decided that they need a new federal agency to control the non military activity in space. In 31st January 1958, the NASA, launched her first artifitial satellit. After this succesfull launch there were others, but the most important was the Apollo project, that wants to land humans on the Moon and return them to the Earth. The first mission was Apollo 1 that was not any result, because all the astronauts died during an experimentally simullation where a fire was generated in the command module. After this they do some unmanned tests: Apollo 8 and Apollo 11, that their objectives were orbiting the Moon, and returned photographs. On July 20, 1969 the NASA tried a new expedition for land humans on the Moon with Apollo 11, their creew members where Neil Amstrong and Buzz Aldrin, this expedition achieved his objective and these two astronauts were the first humans that have put the here feet on the Moon.
An other great thing that the NASA has done is the skylab, the first space station that United States launched in orbit.
After two great events, the NASA has done lots of spacial missions for explore the Space an for know if there are some live in som place, the last mission launched by the NASA is the Kepler on March 6 at 22:49:57 from Cape Canaveral, Florida.

Different changes in the F1 cars

In this new entry I will talk about the defferents changes introduced in the cars of F1. The most importants are three: the KERS, the tyres and the wings.
The KERS is a new system for recover the kinetic energy genereted by the car’s braking. This energy is stored in a battery. This energy will be available to the driver with a button on the steering wheel, the power gain is about 80 horsepower available just for seven seconds.
The tyres changes because the slick tyres returns and substitute the grooved tyres wich were the official tyres for ten seasons.
The other change is the front wings and the rear wing. The front wing becomes lower and wider and with adjustable flaps. The rear wing becomes taller and narrower.

Here you have a video where explain these things and some others.

Frankenstein: Film vs Book (differences)

I will talk about the differences between the film and the book of Frankenstein. Well, the first difference that we could see is that in the book the monster is going by sledge when he was pursuing victor, but in the film we can appreciate that the monster is going by feed. We can also see that in the film has suppressed one of the brothers of Victor because there is only one of them: William, and in the book there are two: William and Ernest. We can also see that in the film victor meet Henry in the University when in the book he meet him when he was younger. We also appreciate that in the book, the monster saves a girl from the river, but in the film, this it isn't. Another difference is that, in the film, the father of Victor dies for sadness, and in the book, is killed by the monster. The last difference that I've found is that in the film Victor give life to the body of Elisabeth when in the book it doesn't happen. Well I think that these are some differences, not all, but they are the only that I've found.

A Little accident

When I was young, I think I was six or seven years old, I had a little accident with a glass. Well I start with the beginig. It was a afternoon of summer, final of summer, and I was playing with my brother and my cousins in the courtyard of my house, and my small cousin and I were pursuing to my old brother and my old cousin, the big against the smalls was an injustice!! But finally they closed upinside the room and they left us outside. In this moment I felt angry and I want to enter inside any way. I tryied without violence but finaly I couldn't support it more and want to pushing the door with all my strengths, before continuing I have to say one thing the door was made with some glasses..., and I also want to push it by the little wood that there were, but my arms "patinar" and I crashed one glass, firs I wasn't hurt but the moment that I remove the arms to the crashed glass I have cut, with several hurts, the two arms after my mum come very fast and she took me to the hospital where the doctors sweded my left arm with fifteen stitches, the other arm was imposible to sweded because it wasn't any meet and you also colud see the bone. Now I already remember it like if it was yesterday and I also remember the blood how it went out of my arms, and when I remember it I laugh and I think that I haven't to go at class thfirst week of school.

Carnival

The carnival is a celebration that has came from South America. This celebration has been very famous all over the world. The carnival consist in a prucession in the village, or in the city wher the people dress in a different clothes and they, sometimes, make a float to put the drink or food o it.
This year, we dressed as tennis players ad at the last moment we've decided to make a simple float. This year we have gone to Sant Pere and Roses the frst week and the next week to Castelló and Empuriabreva wehere it was organised and to finish a lunch next to the pavillon, like every year.
I think that this year it wil be a bit different of other years, because the other years we dressed alone and we were ten in the group, but this year we've dressed with another group and there were a lot of people in it.

The Research Project

In this new entry I will talk about a project that we have to do for improve the batxillerat. This project it's done by a pupil helped with a teacher that the highschool has give it to him. This project is started in first of batxillerat and it has to be presenmted one year before, in second of batxillerat. Normaly the teacher give to us a list with some subjects for choose soeone, we can also do a proposition and if the teachers accept it we can do it. This is a very important project for the final mark of batxillerat and also because if you don't pass it you must repeat the batxillerat.

Catalonia

In this entry I will talk about a spetial thing for me, my real country. This isn't an official country now but I hope that in few years, no more than ten, it will be officialy and it will apear on the maps. This region is one of the most beautiful places and with a very important history all over the world. Catalonia is situated in one of the bests places of the iberian peninsula with the Pirineus on the north side and with the Mediterranean sea on the right side. His history is very important for the conquest of the majority of the Mediterranean sea and for one of the militar company of the almogavers, known by his skill and agresivity in the battle. I think that a terrytory, a culture, a language and a history like that have to be an independent country and show, without being submitted to other countries, this beautiful things.
