Mail to my teacher!

Hi Sonia! ðŸ˜Š
Today I want to talk with you about my dreams. I am not a dreamer person who is not aware of reality but I have some little dreams that I keep in secret. My biggest dream is to be a singer, can live of the music and transmit emotions, feelings to the people who listen to me. Since childhood I have liked singing and I have always practiced singing for my own. Always I have sung Beyonce's songs because they are the songs that best suit my voice.
I don't want to be like Madonna or Ariana Grande, for example, because they not transmit nothing with their songs. I want to be like Matt Corby because he is a marvelous songwriter and he transmits a lot with his  songs full of emotion. 

I appreciate that is too difficult, if not impossible, that in the future I will can live of the music. But maybe the prosperity is just around the corner!

Siege Highlights Security Used in Abortion Clinics

Everything happened like in a movie. The police were heavily armed. They entered the clinic in order to reduce the armed man and release all those trapped inside. Officers stationed outside the clinic  they helped their fellow through the cameras of the clinic, managed to see how events unfold on the inside and help their fellow.

John Suthers is the mayor of the city and he could see where the suspect was. The officers knew where people were refugees inside and they knew how and when to intervene to rescue them.  The clinic has already taken strong preventive security measures. It has a very advanced camera system, a supply of bulletproof vests and a "safe room", which was useful to safeguard the life of a woman.

Abortion clinics need to take extraordinary security measures that aren’t necessary for other health care facilities. That can include bulletproof glass and safe rooms, as well as cameras and lighting and security protocols.The staff of the clinic abortions was well prepared for such occasions, and this way they saved a lot of lives. There was also a security guard at the door, but heleaved finished their turn.

The president of the clinic Ms. Cowart said the shooter had never gone beyond the waiting room and says that the employees helped to save many lives taking them to the back of the clinic. Planned Parenthood officials declined to discuss their security measures in any detail, for fear of giving tips to would-be attackers. But they said the measures were extensive. 

Since 1977, 8 doctors and medical staff of abortion clinics have been killed by anti-abortion movement. There Have Been an additional 17 Attempted murders, 42 bombings, 186 arson attacks and many Thousands of violent or other illegal acts Threats Against abortion clinics.


Personal Opinion
These things should not pass and these things would not happen if the law of US arms changed. It is not safe for anyone to whichever (and I refer to this murderer psychopath who kills for prejudices) can get a weaponI also believe that although the United States generally have a reputation for being a developed country, most of its states are living with a mentality rooted in the past.

Scientists identify people most likely to benefit from statins

This article tells the study that investigate which profiles are best suited for treatment with stanines.

The recommendation to "The American Heart Association 2013" about the use of stanines and about how much is prescribed. Researchers at the University of Washington have found that studying genetics can know that people can benefit from therapy against cholesterol.

In a study published in the journal "The Lancet" carried by scientists they was investigated the risk of heart attack among nearly 50,000 people . Sex, age, cholesterol levels, smoking and diabetes precedent to designate the group of individuals into account.

“There is ongoing debate over which individuals should be allocated statin therapy to prevent a first heart attack,” study author Nathan O. Stitziel, a Washington University cardiologist and human geneticist. “Genetics appears to be one way to identify high-risk patients.” Stitzel say that more research is needed to confirm the results.

“Regardless, we can at least say that patients with a high genetic-risk score appear to benefit more from statin therapy because they’re starting at a higher baseline risk, even controlling for all the clinical measures we routinely examine.”

The study authors analyzed 27 components of the DNA of each individual to calculate their genetic risk. They claim that these 27 components are related to coronary heart disease.

The American Heart Association and the American College of Cardiology said in 2013 that statins could be prescribed to an estimated 33 million Americans without heart disease who have at least a 7.5 percent risk for heart attack or stroke within the next 10 years.

Ask Well: How Many Miles a Week Should I Run?


Surprisingly few miles. With only five or six miles a week, our health can improve markedly. People who run this distance weekly are underweight  and less likely to be obese than people who doesn't run this distance.


With only one or two runs a week that last one hour each the purpose is achieved. Running a few additional miles it would be worthwhile if the person wanted to control their weight and thus afford to eat more calories. You can also run more miles if you want to be a more experienced runner.

Running more than an hour a day could be dangerous, as they may increase heart problems.


Personal Opinion
Running is very beneficial to health. It is the most complete exercises. But keep willpower to do it. Running is not like playing tennis: in tennis there is no breaks, and doesn't involve too much movement. Instead, when it's practiced footing must keep a steady pace and above all don't stop running, even if it hurts. This is what it costs more and I think this is the reason why people do not practice running so often.

Black Artists and the March Into the Museum


The painter Norman Lewis never complained of racism in the American art world. Before he died of cancer in 1979, he made a prediction: He said it would take around 30 or 40 years that this situation become normalized. Lewis was right. This month has been opened the first extensive survey of Lewis.

After decades of ignorance towards the works of black artists, american museums are catching up group togehter the most significant works to collect the history of african american art. Before, when you went into a museum oneself would think that there were only two black artists worldwide. But now slowly trying to change this reality.


In the 200 Elliot Bostwick David became chairwoman of the department of his art at the Museum of Fine Arts, Boston . When he arrived there were only two works that came from African Americans throughout the museum. She made the process to change this situation got underway. The historians showed how a discussion about African-American art is inseparable from a discussion of American art. One can’t exist without the other.


Thelma Golden, the current director of the Studio Museum in Harlem, says that this action for group afroamerican modern art doesn't have to be a fad, but a vital part of American art.


Personal Opinion
It seems right has been become aware of the value of African-American art and has taken the initiative to do a search for the most relevant African paintings. It seems right that has been become aware of the value of African-American art and has taken the initiative to do a search for the most relevant African paintings. It is important to continue like that and black artists occupy the most important areas of each museum next to white artists.

Justin Bieber and Ariana Grande Use an Award Show to Speed a Comeback

In this article the author explains his opinion on the performances of Ariana Grande and Justin Bieber in the 2015 AMA's.

During his performance everyone forgot the immature behavior of Bieber, or Ariana caught saying "America sucks." But it was demonstrated that these two stars went after her performance of "Over" to "Comeback". 

This kind of shows have always served as second chance for those stars who wanted to re-emerge as Britney Spears, Miley Cyrus ... Jayne Charneski, an audience and consumer strategist, he says that these phenomena are caused by social networks.                                                                   Ariadna Grande  




Bieber assault a neighbor's house and attacked by pulling raw eggs. He was also caught for drunk driving and he resisted to be arrested, so many people ask his deportation to Canada. Since these incidents, Justin has begun to change his attitude. 


 Justin Bieber



He has called his album "Propose" (which contains songs with such subtle titles like "Sorry", "Life is worth living" or "Love Yourself") and he has ask for forgiveness to his fans for his behavior at concerts, via Twitter.

But they worth anything these artists come clean on Twitter if they do not have an album to back them up. "Even When These kids are bad, They are not really that bad"


Personal Opinion
Fame has spoiled Justin Bieber and soon It will spoil Ariana Grande. Both are very talented but they have failed to control the fame and control their personal life, and that it is taking its toll especially to Bieber.

Oral Presentation



Our oral Presentation about Google

I think I've improved over last year because I get less nervous and I speak more fluid and clear. But I really fails pronunciation and have to try to look less of the script. In the next presentation I will work more to fix these failures:)

My say

Instagramers 

In the recent years Instagram has become a fashion reference portal for boys and girls all over the world and a bussines too. 

Many boys and especially girls have created accounts on Instagram where they upload photos of what they do, about places they go to eat and above all to show that ourtifs take daily.

Many stores give away pieces of clothing to these instagramers or itgirls/itboys so they post pictures with it and promote it in exchange for money. It is the same with the trendy restaurants or anything that they wear or do.






One example is Dulceida. Aida Domenech is a girl who lives in Barcelona. She has a fashion blog, an account in Instagram and in Snapchat and a youtube channel. I followed her 2 years ago and she always has a surprise to his followers.

 But Aida isn't like the others instagrams because she is natural and fun, and she doesn't consider herself superior to the other people for have achieved the fame. 







After being always heterosexual, two years ago she met a girl and fell in love with her. She didn't had fear to announce she was a lesbian, where in a very superficial world like is the fashion world is difficult to do.


My say

Future

In this my-say I wanna talk about the future. How disturbing can be the future. We don't know anything about it. What if we knew that the future holds? For example, who will be the love of our life or what will be the cause of our death? 

Always I have believed that not aknowlege the future is a great advantage because it's the only way we can enjoy the moment and assess what we have without thinking about when we will lose it. 

Each builds his destiny making the way towards that they want or desire. For instance, If I want to meet the boy of my life, first I have to fight against the obstacles to achieve my goal, but there will always be a component that does not depend on you, but the destiny. 

I think the secret to a prosperous and successful future is to build the way towards your goal and always be positive and persevering and especially never lose hope.

My say

Black Friday 

Next November 27 Black Friday is celebrated. Here in Spain this consumer tradition is not well established but in United Estates It's an excuse to buy wildly and uncontrollably. There, during that day all big department stores and stores impose very high discounts to their products. For customers, these discounts represent an enormous claim. They come to the shops hours before the opening making huge queues at the doors of the shops to get the best discounts.

Once started Black Friday, women and men throw out under the most lowered products, under the bargains, fights arise to achieve this desired product,  the store turned upside down, people are stampeded on... It is a spectacle that proves that the human species can sometimes be quite ridiculous.

With this video you can make a slight idea ...




It really Black Friday is a very good and brilliant marketing idea. Get wonderful discounts near christmas mobilize thousands (no exaggeration) in front of the doors of big department stores and these buy and consume endlessly has much merit.

But Black Friday also shows how degrading it can become consumerism and the desire to buy unnecessary things. As someone can step on a person and pass over him just to get a lowered television seems pathetic and makes me rethink the limits of our stupidity.

My say


The Volunteering




Volunteering has not been very present in our lives. We can blame the social model we have instilled all along our education: everyone must strive for their individual results and enjoy the achievements alone, and always expect a reward in exchange that has been made, given or worked. But I thank these "anti-system" his altruistic work. What's wrong with working in exchange for their own personal satisfaction?

Aside from volunteer camps, What we can say about the volunteers of soup kitchens, those who dedicate their time to people who have no money not even to pay for the light, which can hardly sleep under a roof, all victims the bloodthirsty economic crisis. In the four years that the crisis has been present in our lives, the amount of these volunteers has increased precipitously. Supply and demand, I guess: it increases poverty and consequently increases the number of volunteers.

I think that number should continue to rise and more people should join in volunteering because it never hurts to give, and give in exchange for a simple "thank you" is not negligible.

Writing exam: The role of women in Dorian Grey book

The role of women in Dorian Grey book

Women have ever had a ridicul role in our society. They are always destined to clean, to make dinner, to look after the kids... But when they try to improve in their work, they become rejected.

These issues are biggest mistake of our mentality. Women have been born with the same abilities than the men, but women have not the same opportunities because they always were in a second place.

In the story It does not appear any important and intelligent woman. The only one who appears is Sibyl, who is ridiculized by Dorian because she lost her talent. That shows the trust in women have pelople in this age and how much we have changed. Also we have a lot of work to do to reach the gender equality. Some examples are the difficulty that women can get a promotion in work or the sexist stereotypes.
