My street

This is my street. I live in the plantatio in a small town near la cañada.
Streets around me are long and wide but many are in very poor condition or are not numbered well.
The environments that surround me are a restaurant, the main street and a pharmacy.
We have a soccer field near but this neglected and only months to when summer arrives and the paty begin from here.
Also next to my house there is a small forest, but now this fence so that it can retain and do not burn.
The school is close to my house just slow 5 minutes.
in the Plantatio restaurant the two bus stops or going to la cañada subway or paterna. The subway is a problem here because they spend every 1 hour.
The plantatio is a quiet place where they usually do not have much noise but if there are some rob in this area. In my house when I was a child came to rob.
This is my street and my area where I live.

podcast

A podcast is a digital media file, or a series of such files, that is distributed over the Internet using syndication feeds for playback on portable media players and personal computers. A podcast is a specific type of webcast which, like 'radio', can mean either the content itself or the method by which it is syndicated; the latter is also termed podcasting. The host or author of a podcast is often called a podcaster. The term "podcast" is a portmanteau of the name of Apple's portable music player, the iPod, and broadcast; a "pod" refers to a container of some sort, and "cast" to the idea of broadcasting.

BULLING

Bullying is the intentional tormenting of others through verbal harassment, physical assault, or other more subtle methods of coercion such as manipulation. There is currently no legal definition of bullying.
The effects of bullying can be serious and even fatal. About 85% of bullying victims suffer long term psychological damage and stress related disease later in their lives.
There have been many examples of people dying as a result of bullying. Victims of bullying either commit suicide or are killed by their bullies. There are also cases of death occurring as an indirect result of bullying, such as bullies or other people killed by victims of bullying.


CIBER-BULLING
Cyberbullying occurs in electronic space. According to Canadian educator Bill Belsey, it:
"involves the use of information and communication technologies such as e-mail, cell phone and pager text messages, instant messaging, defamatory personal Web sites, blogs, online games and defamatory online personal polling Web sites, to support deliberate, repeated, and hostile behaviour by an individual or group, that is intended to harm others".Bullies will even create blogs to intimidate victims worldwide.

The Sahara has one of the harshest climates in the world. It has many strong winds that blow from the north-east. Sometimes on the border zones of the north and south, the desert will receive about 25 cm of rain a year. The rainfall happens very rarely, but when it does it is usually torrential when it occurs after long dry periods, which can last for years. Daytime temperatures can be 58 °C.

Saint Valentine refers to one of several martyred saints of ancient Rome. The feast of Saint Valentine was formerly celebrated on february 14 by the Roman Catholic Church until a revised calendar was issued in 1969, pursuant to the Second Vatican Council.His feast day is July 30 in the Eastern Orthodox Church.
His birth date and birthplace are unknown. Valentine's name does not occur in the earliest list of Roman martyrs, which was compiled by the Chronographer of 354.

mall rats

i think it's a fantastic film because it shows an informal life that you can't see every day in tv.

the director for being the most important has a little paper in the film.

the film is abaut the live of frikies in a grand store with many adventures.
it's a very funny film and enterteining and I recomend it to everybody.

opinion of director->

Kevin: I think Mallrats is very funny. I'm on your side. It's a movie that's very dear to my heart, but it went right in the shitter. When you do a movie like Clerks, then a movie like Mallrats that goes right in the shitcan, everyone says, "Ha ha, wiseass." So rather than subject yourself to that, you steal their thunder by saying it first.
There's this infamous moment where I was on stage giving an award away with Laura Dern, and I opened up by saying, "I want to take this time to apologize for Mallrats. I don't know what I was thinking." It was said in a very tongue-in-cheek fashion; it was a joke. But some people thought it was serious. Roger Ebert, in his review of Chasing Amy, said, "He started out with a great movie called Clerks, then followed up with a movie that was so bad that he apologized for it."

spain

Different cultures have settled in the area of modern Spain, such as the Celts, Iberians, Romans, Visigoths, and Moors. For just over five centuries, during the Middle Ages, large areas were under the control of Islamic rulers, a fragment of which survived as late as 1492, when the Christian kingdoms of Castile and Aragón completed the 770 years long process of driving the Moors out.
The historical peoples of the peninsula were the Iberians and the Celts, the former inhabiting the southwest part of the peninsula and along the Mediterranean side through to the northeast, the latter inhabiting the north and northwest part of the peninsula. In the inner part of the peninsula, where both groups were in contact, a mixed, distinctive, culture was present, known as.

interchange with carcasson

the past Thursdays 8 of March came to Spain our friends from carcasson to spend a great week with us.

the truth is that this interchange is a fantastic experience since few schools you have the oportinidad to make it.

the week transcurried of this form:

Friday:

we went to the school and later we went to see the exhibition of (ninot). later we went 2 hours to the oceanographic one and ate in the city of the arts and sciences, and in the evening we went by in (la cañada)

Monday:

we went to the albufera that we had planned a trip in boat on the albufera but it could not be since the time I do not let it do.

Tuesday:

Wednesday:

we went to see the (mascleta) and we ate by valence, in the evening we made a great celebration of goodbye.

Thursday:

Thursday to 15:00 began their trip towards carcasson.

fallas

Formerly, much time would also be spent at the Casal Faller preparing the ninots for puppets or dolls¡l. During the week leading up to 19 March, each group takes its ninot out for a grand parade, and then mounts it, each on its own elaborate filled cardboard and artistic monument in a street of the given neighborhood. This whole assembly is a falla.
The ninots and their falles are developed according to an agreed upon theme that was, and continues to be a satirical jab at anything or anyone unlucky enough to draw the attention of the critical eyes of the fallers (the celebrants themselves). In modern times, the whole two week long festival has spawned a huge local industry, to the point that an entire suburban area has been designated the City of Falles. Here, crews of artists and artisans, sculptors, painters, and many others all spend months producing elaborate constructions, richly absurd paper and wax, wood and styrofoam tableaux towering up to five stories, composed of fanciful figures in outrageous poses arranged in gravity-defying architecture, each produced at the direction of the many individual neighbourhood Casals faller who vie with each to attract the best artists.

DrAcUl*

Between 1879 and 1898 Stoker are business manager for the world-famous Lyceum Theatre in London, where he supplemented his income by writing a large number of sensational novels, his most famous being the vampire tale Dracula published on may 1897. Parts of it are set around the town of Whitby, where he was living at the time. While Dracula is famous today (due in large part to its 20th century life on film), it was not an important or famous work for Victorian readers, being just another potboiler adventure among many. Throughout the 1880s and 1890s, authors such as H. Rider Haggard, Rudyard Kipling, Robert Louis Stevenson, Arthur Conan Doyle, and H.G. Wells wrote many tales in which fantastic creatures threatened the British Empire. Invasion literature was at a peak, and Stoker's formula of an invasion of England by continental European influences was by 1897 very familiar to readers of fantastic adventure stories.

MAGIC*

Peter Adkison first met with Richard Garfield to discuss Garfield's new game RoboRally. Adkison was not enthusiastic about the game, as board games are expensive to produce and difficult to market. He did enjoy Garfield's ideas and mentioned that he was looking for a portable game that could be played in the downtime that frequently occurs at gaming conventions. Garfield returned later with a prototype he had been working with on and off over the last few years under the development name of Mana Clash. Adkison immediately saw the potential of the game and agreed to produce it.
Role-players were enthusiastic early fans of Magic, but the game achieved much wider popularity among strategy gamers. The commercial success of the game prompted a wave of other collectible card games to flood the market in the mid-1990s. Many of them were poorly received and failed both commercially and in popularity while others were considered equal in gameplay quality, stature, and popularity to Magic: The Gathering.
In 1996, Wizards of the Coast established the "Pro Tour", a circuit of tournaments where players can compete for a top prize of US$40,000 for a single weekend-long tournament. Sanctioned through the Duelists' Convocation International, the tournaments add an element of prestige to the game by virtue of the cash payouts and media coverage from within the community. The system is similar to those used in golf, tennis and other professional sports. The company publicizes good players who win frequently in order to create a "star" system; the stars are offered as inspirations to which other players aspire.
In 2002, an official online version of the game was released. While unofficial methods of online play existed beforehand,Magic: The Gathering Online quickly became a success for the company thanks to its rules enforcement, feature-rich environment, and accessible nature.

xmas in spain

In Spain it is a very festive time at Christmas. On Christmas Eve, as the stars come out, tiny oil lamps are lit in every house, and after Midnight Mass and Christmas Dinner, streets fill with dancers and onlookers. There is a special Christmas dance called the Jota and the words and music have been handed down for hundreds of years. They dance to the sound of guitars and castanets.
Children think of the Three Wise Man as the gift bearers. Tradition has it that they arrive on January 6th, the date the Wise Men gave gifts to Jesus.

The Spanish especially honor the cow at Christmas because it is thought that when Mary gave birth to Jesus the cow in the stable breathed on the Baby Jesus to keep him warm.

greenhouse effect

The greenhouse effect is the rise in temperature that the Earth experiences because certain gases in the atmosphere (water vapor, carbon dioxide, nitrous oxide, and methane, for example) trap energy from the sun. Without these gases, heat would escape back into space and Earth’s average temperature would be about 60ºF colder. Because of how they warm our world, these gases are referred to as greenhouse gases.

A tropical cyclone is a warm storm system fueled by thunderstorms near its center. It feeds on the heat released when moist air rises and the water vapor in it condenses. The term describes the storm's origin in the tropics and its cyclonic nature, which means that its circulation is in the Northern Hemisphere and clockwise in the Southern Hemisphere. Tropical cyclones are distinguished from other cyclonic windstorms such as nor'easters, European windstorms, and polar lows by the heat mechanism that fuels them, which makes them "warm core" storm systems. Depending on their location and strength, there are various terms by which tropical cyclones are known, such as hurricane.

The greenhouse effect is important. Without the greenhouse effect, the Earth would not be warm enough for humans to live. But if the greenhouse effect becomes stronger, it could make the Earth warmer than usual. Even a little extra warming may cause problems for humans, plants, and animals.
