My Emviroment.

La Cañada´s forest in near my home many neighbours go for

a wolk there, I like to wolk my dog Neo, but very carefully,

because he likes to pursue rabbits.

We can see there a lot of rubbish from people´s homes

or from his reforms.

Nobody fines them, and this rubbish is a danger, because

it can start an important fire.

Although the Natural Park is a pribately owned, the

City Council of Paterna should keep the forest clean,

paying cleaning services or assisting voluntary

brigades.

I would go to clean although I never soiled.

The fires of this summer!

The summer with two great fires in the Canary Islands began. Later those of

Greece and soon in Castellón. Those of Greece with the misfortune of human losses.

In La Vallesa forest, two small fires, the last one in the middle of August, that affected 5.000 m2 ( 200 of them of forest land ). And it´s that

every year, in summer, and taking advantage of winds the west, is some

unscrupulous one that tries to burn the forests of any site, and thus to take

advantage of the lands wich no longer they serve for anything, to construct leaned and to

fatten its pockets with real estate sales that report much money to their owners.

Luckily, La vallesa forest already it´s a Nature park, proteged ofiicially by the

State, but to wich all we have obligation to protect.

A boat sunk in Ibiza!

July 10th, the merchant "Don Pedro" sank near the coast of Ibiza.

Broken cracks of this boat removed to the surface their fuel. Quickley

10 tons took shelter of fuel, but ttree beaches were closed by the spill

of the ship and they had to put burriers anticontamination to try to res-

train the fuel.

As many we know, Ibiza is an island specially characterized by its

tourism, for misfortune of wich it was called on to see excellent

stained beaches of black liquid to then covering borders and sand,

would be a horrible vision.

Figueretas, Embossa and Talamanca beaches were in danger

their tourism because the spill could cause a serious danger for the

natural resources or for the health of peoples.

As opposed to stained Ibiza and its coasts it is the island of Formentera,

and just opposite the beach it is Illetes beaches, with its white sand and

spectacular blue waters, that I like to see when I go in summer. This year

I was in August and I had the luck of wich the spot of the spill, that the

winds and tides of this summer, as soon as they arrived until there.

Inundation!

My father likes fiction science;
He reads many books and he likes fiction science films.
But tris summer the fiction has made reality, because the strong rain provocated
in United Kingdom inundations.
Cloudbursts on July 20th were followed by a Sodden weekend, leading to the highest
water levels in 60 years.
Up to 6.500 houses and 1.500 firms in Gloucestershire, Oxfordshire and Berkshire
were flooded as the rivers Severn and Thames burst their banks.
Several people died.

St. Valentine´s Day is the world´s holiday of love.

Celebrated on Fevruary 14th. Hundreds of years ago in England,

many children dressed up as adults on Valentine´s Day.They went singing from home to home by example:

Good morning to you, Valentine;

Curl your looks as I do mine...

Two before and three behind,

Good morning to you, Valentine.

St. Valentine became the patron saint of lovers. The date

was marked by sending poems and simple gifts such a flowers.

Sahara peopLe!

Western Sahara is a territory of Africa whose process of decolonitation

was interrupted by the abandonment of the process by Spain in 1976,

the saharaui people was into the hands of Morocco.

In order to solve the conflict of the Western Sahara it is necessary to

know how that after 16 years military of war and conversations with

the United Nations, the only base of a dialog is within the legality and

right to the self-determination and independence of the saharaui people.

After thirty years of military ocupation of the territory and necessary

exile, all the saharauis families live divided by a wall on 2720 kilimeters

protected with soldiers, antipersonal mines, barbed wire.

Its the "wall of the shame", getting up in 1980 to isolate the Western

Sahara and to prevend the referendum of self-determination and

this to spoliate the natural wealth of teritory being created civil saharauis

victims. The Polisario front organized the resistence front the invades

until in 1997 they negotiated with representatives of Morocco, and

thanks to the United Nations and James Baker, seem to have unblocked

the situation.

The important thing now is that a good process is obtained and to

continue with the material and humanitarian AID.

William Shakespeare!

Biography:

Shakespeare was born in 1564, probably on April 23 and he died on 1616

( like Cervantes ). At age 18, William Shakespeare married Anne Hathaway,

with her, he had three sons. Shakespeare lived in Stratford twenty years;

the next 25 years as an actor and playwright in London, and the last five

retirament back in Stratford. In 1596 his son Hannet died at the age of

eleven. But he became one of the partners in the " Globe Theatre ".

When Queen Elizabeth died in 1603 Shakespeare´s popularity

continued uninterrupted.

Shakespeare´s Plays:

Hamlet, Macbeth, Othello, Romeo and Juliet, King Lear, Antony

and Cleopatra , A Midsummer Night´s Dream.

Shakespeare on Film:

I have seen " Romeo and Juliet" ( 1996 ) with Leonardo Di Caprio

as Romeo. I liked very much because this film is a creative vision

in a way of actuality, in a moder city, with a feud between the two

entities of Montague and Capulet.

And I have seen " Much Ado About Nothing" ( 1993 ), by Kenneth

Branagh. I liked Kenneth Branagh´s romance with Emma Thompson,

it was funny ( I have this film at home ).

-Shakespeare is considered to be the greatest writer in English Literature.

The English language owes a great debt to Shakespeare because he

invented more words and expressions.

the green house effect!

The causes of heating: the activities of the man contribute to the climatic change observed by the scientists.

1- Responsability of the man: the increase of the temperatures is due to the increase of gases of greenhouse effect. This heating is attributed to the man from last the fifty years.

2- More gases of greenhouse effect: the nitrous carbone dioxide and oxides that come from the production of electricity in thermal, generarion of energy in great industrial plants, motorized vehicles, and porestacion.

3- Increasing concentrations of CO2.

4- A new power model: The nuclear energy.

The scientific evidences:

1- Increased of 0,74 degrees, is the increaseed of temperature in the last century.

2- the causes of the heating mainly by gas concentration of green house effect emited by it burns it of combustivles fossil ( coal, refuel and natural gas ).

3- The ascent of the level of the sea by the heating of the water and defrosting in Greenland.

The impact on the planet:

1- Extreme meteorological conditions.

2- Cyclones of greater intensity.

- to fulfill the protocol Kioto´s. And that great the emergent countries (Chinese, India, Mexico, Brazil, South Africa ) as well as EE.UU and Australia, are comitted to reduce to gases. And individual gestures of all the citizens of the world.

..Pump in Madrid!

December 30th 2006, in Madrid a pump exploded in a van.

That happened in airport´s parking (Barajas), it had caused

the two ecuadorians dead, the first mortal ETA´s victim since

Maig 2003. After murder government confirmed that

the peace process to get the peace in Basque Country, stayed

broken. Only ETA stayed a way, stop the violence, saied Interior

Minister.

Battereed women!

Violence is an increasing problem in our society.Battered women

deserbe a special focus, and themselves are the primary victims,

but the secundary victims are their children.

One point of intervention to break this cycle of violence would

involve interrupting domestic violence against women.

In our society, wife battering is linked to male dominance and cultural

norms that tolerate domestic violence. Because of findings like

"Jacquelyn Campbell" (anthropologist) an argument exists that,

at the institutional-state lebel, part of problem is that legislatures

are composed primarily of men, who are influenced by a culture

that they see to women as objets of possession. In Spain, there´s

an Instituto de la Mujer (Women´s Institut), for help to the battered women.

But I think that it must have a change in our society.
