Describing Photographs

                      

In this picture I can see some kids having fun as they are playing with water guns in a poor place.

In the foreground is the water that splashes after being launched for the water guns, and also a boy hiding of the water behind his water gun.

In the middle is a girl and 2 boys also playing with water, the boys are on a wall,with his water guns.

In the background is another boy on the same wall, also with his water gun, I see also some poor houses in a narrow passage. 

According to what I see in the picture I can conclude that they are some children of low social class and you see that the houses that are behind are ancient and destroyed by time, other evidence that are of low social class its that they like to have fun with water pistols, which is currently hardly used because they prefer to use the technology. Despite all this looks like fun without having many things.

 

"The real meaning of Tattooing"

 

"Tattos go beyond art and fashion; they reflect deep-rooted cultural and ethnic heritage"

"The real meaning of Tattooing"

I agree with the thesis,because in many cases it is thought that tattoos are a symbol of beauty and meaning do not understand any more than look pretty in the body,but this goes far beyond, in many parts of the world especially in tribes and ancestors used tattooing was to define a hierarchy or to scare the enemy in the battles, is a form to identificate and win respect between the people of theirs cultures . 

For example the Maori tribe in New Zealand used the tattos to scare the enemy and in signal of respect,the person that have more tattos it means that have more experience than the other of his culture,they start tattoing the childrens at 8 years old and they modified, as you have more experience and more power in the tribe.

At present in some neighborhoods, usually in people marginalized populations tattoos to mark their territory or to identify within a specific group, also this tatto gives you importance  in this crew(group of people of that neighborhoods).

Also currently tattooed on people to remember a deceased relative or friend, to always carry in your skin, lightening somehow have lost pain.

That's why tattoos go beyond a simple art or a way to make drawings on your skin, there may be people who are tattooed only for its beauty but originally the tattoos they had a more important undertone that beauty.

My birthday in Southafrica

Dear diary,

Today was a very special day, today celebrated my birthday in south africa, was very entertaining, everything was new to me, it all started when I woke up in the morning, staying family took me to see the statue of Nelson Mandela, was very interesting learn the story of Mandela, a president who helped a lot to the country. Then I took a tour of the savanna, it was exciting, I saw many lions, but all the more shocking was to see the elephants so close to me. Finally in the evening we ate together at a restaurant, the food was good, but I prefer the Chilean lol. There I sang happy birthday and gave me the shirt of the South African rugby team. It was a very good birthday, all very different than it is usually in my country Chile, a great experience celebrating a birthday on a completely different culture. It was a very good birthday.

Cutting of trees a constant problem in Chile

Sebastian Merino, Green Reporter
Tuesday April 30,2013

Viña del Mar - The constant cutting of trees in Chile worries CONAF(National Forestry Corporation), there are over 20 companies engaged in the cutting of trees,in 10 years the trees will disappear.This affects not only biodiversity but also directly affects quality of life of all the inhabitants of Chile


The numbers are worrying Chilean forests, in recent years the growth of trees has decreased by 25% due to the constant cutting of trees, used without any restriction or law regulating this practice.

The CONAF have made of his displeasure by sending a letter to 12 of the most important companies that cut trees in Chile. This letter is mainly spoken of the damage they are causing to the environment by over-exploitation of their companies, and the damage it could cause in the future not only to the flora and fauna, human beings also due to decreased photosynthesis and accumulation of CO2 in the air.

Ignacio Alberto Puch Carcamo, environmental expert at the University of Chile said: "The indiscriminate cutting of trees is a serious problem that affects society gradually nature is destroyed by the misuse and exploitation of human beings".Cristian Mena, the manager of "Trees Mena SA" defended saying: "Our company has all the necessary permits and experts in the field to have a good performance without going to bring any law."

CONAF called on all volunteers to present this Friday, May 2 at Cerro Aconcagua to make a massive tree planting in order to end the deforestation. Enough will they be laws regulating cutting trees in Chile? or how will implement reforms necessary to protect our biodiversity is affected daily by these companies do not have any kind of conscience?.

Brave New World

1)The chapters 1,2 and 3 are very important for the development of the novel, because here it makes clear that the babies are born in vitro and how are classified.

2)The information in these three chapters is a description, because it is described principally like it is this world and his practices with the babies.

Video:Science and Technology

1)The video speaks on the danger that exists in the technology(dvd,tablets,touch screens) and the science          (investigation of diseases) because EE.UU it does not possess the sufficient money to finance them, and this country is one of the bigest producer of technology and science.

2)The ''fiscal cliff'' is a great threat of the science and technology of U.S, this also concerns in the growth of the work.

3)It was lowering the production of the technology, because The United States is one of the major producers, also decrease the science because The United States possesses big advances.For all these reasons are going to be less jobs.

4)I agree, because we must continue improving the advances in the science and in the technology and without the help of United States this is impossible.

5)No, the government of Chile does not have the money needed for the production of technology and for research, we are dependent on more developed countries.
