The globalization

The globalization in a phenomenon that makes the world more similar in general, there are the same things around the world, as a chain of fast food, the architecture and more things like that.
This phenomenon have some advantages like an easy communication and travel is more practice and simple.
But for example, who want to travel in a different country for see the same things you have in your's? Maybe is more practice but not more exiting, quite the opposite, it's bored and the experience is poorest.
I think that with the globalization the cultures tend to loose importance and eventually all the cultures can be reduced at one in general and that's something that can make poor our world.

Film review

The gods must be crazy.

A very funny story that contrasts the modern civilization with the old customs and habits. It's our society satiritzated in a very funny way. It's a good movie to watch with all the family if you want to laugh.

The pilot of an airplane that's overflying the desert of kalahari, throw an empty bottle of coca-cola that falls in the village of a primitive tribu. First, they think that the bottle was an object of the gods. It was so usefull fot take water, for mill and do a ot of usefull things, but after a few days they began to have fights for have the object and there was only one. So the boss of the tribu decided to return the strange object to the gods, and then he began a long travel in that is gonna cross his way with humans of the civilitzated world and finnaly he became a hero saving some people with another men, an occidental friend he makes in the way to return the object to the gods. They both fall in very strange and funny situations and had very fun reactions.

It's a very old (1980) and simple film did with no much resources but the quality is in the plot.

Wise quotes 2

Hi, those are two more wise quotes which makes you think...

“It's the questions we can't answer that teach us the most. They teach us how to think. If you give a man an answer, all he gains is a little fact. But give him a question and he'll look for his own answers.” 
― Patrick Rothfuss, The Wise Man's Fear.

I completely agree with this quote and the Idea that transmits. If you only get an answer, your exercise of thinking finishes there and you gains only a little part, but you didn't learn how to think for your own and If you don¡t learn you will be depending of the others forever and also the process of think is always rewarding and more important than the question in essence.  



“Words are pale shadows of forgotten names. As names have power, words have power. Words can light fires in the minds of men. Words can wring tears from the hardest hearts.” 
― Patrick Rothfuss, The name of the wind.

I agree with this quote, specially with the second part. There are a lot of people that thinks that the words are only words and just as they disappear of the view or the ears they become nothing. But the words transmits ideas and this ideas remain in the minds of the people and are able to do anything.

Extreme BMX red bull rampage

HI, I like the extreme sports and I watched a crazy and amazing video and I want to comment it.

It's about a BMX contest, the competitors have to drives his bike in a very dangerous route, it's a wild rampage but is for this that it's so exiting. There are a lot of contests of this kind but the bests are ever organized by Red Bull and between all the contests I know the one witch is in this video is the best and the most spectacular. There are parts of the circuit that when yo see it you think that it's part of the landscape and you think: -wow if someone falls in this drop surely dies-. But the question is that is not part of the landscape but part of the circuit and they descend it so fast. Well I admire the rider's courage and this is something that I'll never do, you have to be crazy and have a complete control of your bike.

Urban surfing

Hi, what a better moment for talk about the summer and envy the sunny and crasy days? So let's gonna talk about a crazy activity for do the next summer!

Urban surfing consists in extend an impermeable canvas in a slope in the street, drench it with water and sllide on it with some air cushion. I think that it's so fun and amazing. Its also a bit dangerous because if there are more people sliding after you they can hit you at the end but anyway is not to dangerous and it worth it. I want to do it at least one time in my life, I think that if I can I'll do it with a surf table or a cocodrile air cushin. There you have a video for have an idea of what I'm talking about.

Paintball in Afghanistan

This is the complete new

My summary of the new

People of afghanistan wants to live haply and change the memories of war, so the want to change the war for the paintball. They say that the paintball it's a friendly game because you shoot colorful pellets and nobody dies. And the aim of this  game is not to kill all the enemies but to capture their flag. This game is becoming popular between the teenagers of Afghanistan. Tey think that playing this game they become more friendly and less agressives.

Opinion

I do not think that the paintball will improve the life of the Afghanistan people because I don't agree with that this game is friendly, in fact it makes you more agressive and this game is teching you how to fight in the real life. And also it encorages the new teenagers to battle and makes they feel comfortable with guns in tha hands and it seems that shoot our friend is something normal.

Wise quotes 1

I want to comment the next quote that I read in a book of Partick Rothfuss.

“When we are children we seldom think of the future. This innocence leaves us free to enjoy ourselves as few adults can. The day we fret about the future is the day we leave our childhood behind.” 

I think that is the best way to describe the passage of the childhood to the adolescence. I like it because it's so simple and surprisingly true because in fact, when you live completely unworried about your future you are innocent and yo enjoy the moment, and it's that that we all do when we are children. And when one starts to ask himself ¿what I'm be doing next?, ¿who is be going to take care of me when I become an adult?, ¿I really become an adult some day?  he discovers that the life was more difficult that he think, and that the world is not be going to be ever the same.

It's the answer at the question that I had up to I read it, ¿when is that I started to leave my childhood?, and puff! there I have the answer.

The best age of the life

Hi readers, in class we had learned how to say the different ages of the life in english and we had to do a podcast explaining what is for us the best ages and why. So there is my podcast.

THE PODCAST

The footgolf

The new

Summary:

A sport make in 2009 proves a hit in Spain. It is the footgolf, a cross of football and golf and this game is played with a stadard-sized football and kicked towards an oversized hole and a flag-pin.

It was an european touranemt in that the winner was a man from Amsterdam. He said that he wants taht the footgolf became a professional sport. He also said that is possible because the sport of throwing darts was 15 years unnoficiall but finnaly it became an official sport and the players of this sport travel around the world and win money.

Comment:

I immediatly click in this new when I saw it, i think this sport is a very funny idea. After see a few videos in internet of this sport I want also to play it, it seems so fun!

I aso hope that soon we can see the footgolt as an official sport.

I thnick that this sport had some advantages. Fisrt of all, the footbal is a bit "rude" and in the footgolf it gains some style and it becomes less agressive. In the footgolf you have to have a better control of the ball and it's also an improvement. The golf is a bit boried and you need a lot of sticks, in the footgolf you only need a standard-sized football and the game becomes more interesting and funny.

NEW TRAILER OF STAR WARS EPISODE VII

Hi, yestarday the Disney company launched to youtube the trailer of his big project: the seventh episode of the Star Wars saga. I'm a fan of Star Wars and I want to comment the trailer. Well, the trailer it's only about one minute and a half, nut there are many things to comment, so let's go.

First of all in general it seems that  they had been working hard because it can be saw in the effects they putted in the trailer and a lot of things.

But they had changed something that it's, in my opinion, a big error: they had changed the light saber and had putted a small and horitzontal segment of sword just up to the handle of the sword making a cross as the medieval swords. This is terrible because it'll gonna change the way of fight of the jedi and the sith. It was more elegant and futuristic.

Well, based in that I saw in the trailer the episode seven has not the Star Wars style that the other films had, it seems a common film of space opera, as one more between a lot of others. But in general, I think that is gonna be a great film.

This is the trailer, watch it and let me know your opinion ;)

Suspected al-Shabab militia have killed 28 people on a bus in Northern Kenya, officials say.

Summary of the new:

Yesterday in northern  Kenia, a band of the Somai militant group al-Shabab have killed about 28 people (that they were normal and innocent pople) that was traveling in a bus.

The criminals got off  to the bus all  the passengers there were and after that, its blieved that they asked to the travellers to recite some passages from the Koran. Then the criminals took the persons that aren't musulmain and killed they. Between the victims there were four kenyan public servants, police officers.

Abdullahi Abcirahman, the Arabiya Wars Representative told that this place has been suffering similar attacks during the last month and the asked to extraorinary security but they haven't because the governement ignored they.

OPINION:

I thin that it's a prove of that there are a lot of governement security fails, and and there are incompetent persons deciding the important things in the states. This kind of terrorism is knowed by every one, and if the governement had recieved warrings it had to to something.

It seems that the Arabiyan Terrorist is increasing, I do not now who I can feel if I was living in places like that, places in that the civils had not the guarantee of be safety.

FAIRY TAIL

Chapter 1-THE BEGINNING

Once upon a time, in a place called Wetroofstood in that the rain happened frequently, there was a twelve years old child called Peter who lives in a country seat. Peter was a very intelligent and inquisitive boy.

   One day, he went to the fields around his village to collect som fruits. At a certain point when he was on top of an apple-tree collecting the apples he saw an old man that was bringing with him a mule loaded up with one basket in each side. They came from the nearby forest there was and were going towards the village. When the old man was under the tree he stooped waling and asked to Peter:

   ‘Good morning young child, if I was able to climb at this tree i’ll be happy to do it myself but years maked me weak, so I’m fear that I can’t. ¿Could yo take one of these juicy apples for me, please?’

   Peter remained a moment with nothing to say. In his village the foreigns weren’t  welcome and the manners of his neighbors teached him to be suspicious of foreigners. But there was something special in that one old men, he was not a simple traveling-trader. Maybe was for the tone of his voice, perhaps it was for his sincere smile or for his exhausted image. Maybe it was all at the same time, but Peter decided to do that the old men asked to him.

   Before Peter’s late response, the old man said thanks and added that a juicy apple was always welcome after a long day of walking. For a moment a bright of wisdom shone in the eyes of the old man. Peter’s curiosity get bigger. He climbed higer the tree and grab three of the best looking apples there were and he offred them at the elderly man. He was a very inquisitive boy, so he want to know more about this stranger senior.

   ‘Hi, I’m Peter, said the child in a friendly tone, ‘¿Who are you?’

   ‘It’s an interesting question Peter,- said the old man, -but  I had waste many years to         respond myself this question, and as you’ll understand I’m not going to say it easly.’ There was a moment of silence.  ‘But if you want, you can call me Thebe. It is the name thath my parent’s gift to me and the name that use my friends to address at me.’

   They started to walcking towards the village.

   ‘So..., you are saying that you have only a true name and the false one is the one that      uses the people for address to you?’ asked Peter.

   ‘Er..., yes... and... no.’ said the old men. ‘The both are names but one is more important.’

    Thebe seemed to be trying to find a better explanation, but finnally he surrended and said: -I’ts complicated Peter, but when you find out your’s you’ll undrstand me.

   ‘¡But I have a name yet!, and I like it!’

   ‘Of course yo do, but do you think that “Peter” defines exactly who are you?’

   ‘Er... no, I think no..- You can tell me my name?’

   ‘I can try it, and possible with the adequate time and a great effort i will say it to you more or less, but if I reveal it to you, I’m sure that you don’t will understand it. But I think I can say to you were to find it.’

   ‘You’ll do a great favor to me’

   ‘Oh, you merit it Peter, so listen and pay attention at that I have to say: in the other side of the mountains, throwing the Great river and the kngindom of our king, beyond the free countries, at the limit of the lukewarm lands, where the eart turns white and cold, there is a cave in that will be a person taht is the only one that can tell you exactly your real name.’

   ‘It’s a very long travel, but I want to know exactly who I am’ expressed Peter

   ‘Yes, it’s a long travel, I think It wil be enough.’ Said Thebe

   ‘¿Enough, what do you want to mean by saying enough?- said Peter- I don’t understand ...¿How can I understand it?’

   ‘Simply- reply Thebe, -You don’t need to-.’

They keep walking towards the village, Thebe was talking about the beauty of the sunset, but Peter was still thinking about his travel, and break Thebe’s bombastic description of the sunset with a question that gets him so worried since he known about his future travel.

   ‘Er... Thebe, I’m a bit afraid that I’m not ready to start the travel you had proposed to me, i cannot travel on foot all those days, I don’t have any horse or similars.’ Said a worried Peter.

   ‘Don’t worry abut that Peter.’ said Thebe ‘I had already talked with my mule and she agrees with me in that you’re gonna need her help more than me. I had past a lot of adventures with her, but I think that I cant quench her desire of adventures, so we  had decided that she will be with you as soon as I left you’

   ‘¿So, she can talk, she’s got a name?’ asked Peter

   ‘This has to be discovered by you my friend Peter, but i must say to you taht she is a very instintive animal, heed she’s signals and yo’ll be alwas safe.’

This was the encorauging awnser that said the old Thebe before dissapear at the same time that the sun finished to hidd after the mountains that had been seeing Peter growing up since he was a newborn, and something in the air announce a great change in Peter’s life.
