BLACK FRIDAY

23900DDF00000578-2853540-image-52_1417209329287.jpgLast Friday was the Black Friday, and it was a disorder in all the shops from US. The bargain hunters were accused to be like animals, because they fight to buy the products. The police was called  in to deal with mayhem and injuries in the shops. Also, there were three arrests. 
Sir Peter Fahy, from de police said that they were very dissappointed because the stores did not have sufficient security stuff in the shops.
There were a record number of hoppers  this days and they estimation there are going to be 518milion of euros.
The angry scense were in all the country and they cause to closed a lot of stores.

In my point of view, this have to be a big experience to live in London, but there were a lot of accident and it can be a bit dangerous. All the people very agressive because they want to buy a lot of things because there are a lot of sales. 


MOCKINGJAY

Last Friday was the premier of mockingjay, the third part of the hunger's game. I went to the cinema with my friends. First, we went to had dinner in a restaurant and then we went to saw the big film. 

The film elapse after the hunger's games were Katniss is in the district 13, where they live in the subsoil because the capitol extinction their district. In the place that they are, they are preparating to fight against to the Capitol. They need a person who have to encourage the others districts to fight and this symbol is Katniss. She accept but with a condicions, that they, first of all, have to rescue Peeta and the others guys that they were in the games. The problem is that Peeta was kidnap with the objective to kill Katniss. An other condicion is that she want to kill the president Snow.


DON'T LED BAD JUDGMENT GO VIRAL: 10 TIPS ON THE LAW AND SOCIAL MEDIA

The social media have changed our life for good and for bad. The social media brings the people together and facilates the social and busniess relationships. For use the socials media we have to have common sense and good judgment, without it, you can inadvertently  harm yourself and you could have social, financial and legal problems. The following is a list of 10 things that you have to take care before you post a video: 


  1. The things you say may have legal consequences: if you utter demaging untruths about a person, in Facebook or other social media, you may be liable for defamation.
  2. Get permission before using picture, articles, videos or content someone else produced: if you don't have permission you could may have copyright infringement. 
  3. Do not say or write anything on a social media site you do not want reoeated: be careful about what you say, because it can produce bad consequences. 
  4. Be careful about the pictures you post: because it can destroy your life.
  5. Don not use trademarks or copyrighted material without permission. 
  6. Watch out for spammers: because they could steal your identity. 
  7. Refrain from giving TMI: you can not say all that you do because they could steal in you house when you are in holidays, if you put it in the social media. 
  8. Assume what you say never goes away: you have to remember that what you say in this medias is going to be forever there.
  9.  Police constantly catch criminals by reading their Facebook pages.
  10. Assume people Google you and look at social media posts about you.
I think that the social media have very importance in our life because we are connected all day. But we have to take care about what we publish in it, in consequence of that it can produce bad things in the future.

5 MONTH OLD GIRL HAS BEEN BEST FRIENDS WITH SLOTH SINCE SHE WAS BORN

The family of Julia and Jason Heckathron have an unique domestic animal a sloth. Their daughter have live with this special animal since she was born. Also the family have a kangaroo, an anteater, a cat and serval sugar gliders that they adopted when the parents know that they were expectingthe baby. 
Julia thanks that it would be grate for them to grow up with the sloth. 

I think that it's a crazy thing to have these animals in their house with a baby, because they have to take care to their daughter and the animals and they have to spend a lot of time of it.

SWEET 17

Last Saturaday, was my 17 birthday. All started on Friday night, when my friends and I went to ate a kebbab in Sant Pere. When it was midnight, my friends says to me "happy birthday" and then we went to sleep. I was thinking, all the night,  that my friends didn't do nothing to my birthday, so I was very angry and I was crying all night. 
I woke up at 10 o'clock and it was the big day, the day when I did 17 years old. But the day was very sad, because the only thing that I did was going to the supermarket to bought the things to celebrate my birthday on Sunday. When I arrived home, my sister had preapred clues arround the house and in the last clue there was a present. 
At night, my parents, my sister and I we had to go to had dinner in a restaurant, but first we had to pass to leave a jacket in a bar for my sister's friend. So, we went there and my mum forced me to set off the car. I was so angry, because I didn't want to go there. When we where inside the bar, my mum and I, we went to a separate room and it was there, where I saw one of my friends from Barcelona. So, I went into the room and I saw all my friends and it was a great surprise for me. 
The next day, on Sunday, I played the first match from the season and we won, so I was very happy. In the afternoon, my family and I celebrated my birthday all together. 
That was my special weekend.

IS GOPO UNDER THREAT? HTC AND POLAROID REVEAL THEIR SEPARATE PERISCOPE AND CUBE CAMERAS TO SEIZE THE HANDHELD MARKET

Nowadays, the best camera in the market is the Gopro, a small camera that it can goes in the water and it's eassy to take away. But, Polaroid and HTC, they could make a camera that it could take the throne in this market. 

The Polaroin Cube, will be able for £89(114,41€) in October.  
It measures 3,8cm on all it's sides, can capture high definition video and can make images in a resolution of six megapixels. 

The device is splash proof, but if you want to submerge the camera, you have to put the waterproof casing
Also, it's magnetic, and it can attach in surfaces using an included clip.
In addition, it have  ntegrated a microphone and  LED light for the night. 

I think that it's going to be a big competence for de Gopro and this cameras can be more eassy to use. But, it can be more eassy to lose, because they are very small.

OUR PREZI:

REBEL SONG - WINGS (MACKLEMORE & RYAN LEWIS)


I was seven years old, when I got my first pair/ Jo tenia set anys, quan vaig tenir el meu primer par 
And I stepped outside / I hem vaig parar a fora.

And I was like, "Momma, this air bubble right here, it's gonna make me fly"/ I jo estava com, "Mama, aquesta bombolla d'aire que esta aquí, em farà volar"

I hit back-court and when I jumped, I jumped, I swear I got so high / Em va colpejar a la pista i quan vain saltar, vaig saltar, et juro que vaig arribar molt alt.

I touched the net, "Mom, I touched the net," this is the best day of my life / Vaig tocar la xarxa, "Mama, he tocat la xarxa", aquest és el millor dia de la meva vida.

Air Max's were next, / Air Max van ser els següents

That air bubble, that mesh/ La bomblla d'aire, aquelles malles

The box, the smell, the stuffin', the tread,/ la caixa, l'olor, farciment, els fils.

In school/ A l'escola

I was so cool/ jo era tan genial

I knew that I couldn't crease 'em/ jo sabia que no podia doblegar-les

My friends couldn't afford 'em/ Els meus amics no podien permetres les bambes.

Four stripes on their Adidas/ Quatre ralles en els seus Adidas

On the court I wasn't the best, but my kicks were like the pros/ A la pista jo no era el miller, pero els meus tirs som com de professionals.

Yo, I stick out my tongue so everyone could see that logo/ Jo, treia la meva llengüa per que tots poguesin veure el logotip.

Nike Air Flight, but bad was so dope/ Nike Air Flight, pero era dolent estava drogat

And then my friend Carlos' brother got murdered for his Fours*, whoa/ I després el germà del meu amic Carles va ser assesinat pels seus

See he just wanted a jump shot, but they wanted to start a cult though/ Mira ell només volia un tret de suspensió, pero ells volien comença un culte penso.

Didn't wanna get caught, from Genesee Park to Othello/  No volia ser atrepat, de Genesee Park a Othello.

You could clown for those Pro Wings, with the Velcro/ Podies fer el  boig per aquestes ProWings amb el velcro

Those were not tight/ Aquells no apretaven.

I was trying to fly without leaving the ground,/ Jo estava provan de volar sense aixecar-me del terra

Cause I wanted to be like Mike, right/ Perque jo volia ser com en Mike, clad

Wanted to be him,/ Volia ser ell

I wanted to be that guy, I wanted to touch the rim/ Jo volia ser aquell noi, Jo volia tocar l'aro

I wanted to be cool, and I wanted to fit in,/ Jo volia ser guai, i jo volia encaixar

I wanted what he had, America, it begins/ Jo volia el que ell tenia, América, aixó comença.

I want to fly/ Jo full volar

Can you take me far away?/ Em pots portar lluny?

Give me a star to reach for/ Dona'm una estrella per assolir

Tell me what it takes/ Diguem el que es necessita

And I'll go so high/ I jo aniré tan alt

I'll go so high/ Jo aniré tan alt

My feet won't touch the ground/ Els meus peus no tocaran el terra

I stitch my wings/ jo coseixo les meves ales.

And pull the strings/ I estirar les cordes

I bought these dreams/ Jo vaig comprar aquests somnis

That all fall down/ que tots ells cauen

We want what we can't have, commodity makes us want it/ Nosaltres volem el que no podem tenir, comuditat ens fa voler-los.

So expensive, damn, I just got to flaunt it/ Tan car, maleït, Jo acabo de pressumir

Got to show 'em, so exclusive, this that new shit/ Tinc que ensenyar-los, tan exclusiu, aixo es la nova merda.

A hundred dollars for a pair of shoes I would never hoop in/ Cent dollars per un par de sabates , jo voldria

Look at me, look at me, I'm a cool kid/ Mira'm, mira'm, jo soc un nen guai

I'm an individual, yeah, but I'm part of a movement/ Jo soc individual, yeah, pero jo soc una part d'un moviment.

My movement told me be a consumer and I consumed it/ El meu moviment em deia que he de ser un consumidor i jo consumia.

They told me to just do it, I listened to what that swoosh said/ Ells em deien a mi que només ho fés, jo vaig escoltar el que va dir el xiulet.

Look at what that swoosh did/ Mira el que va fer el xiulet.

See it consumed my thoughts/ Mira que consumia els meus pensaments.

Are you stupid?, don't crease 'em, just leave 'em in that box/ Ets estúpid?no les dobleguis, només deixe-les a la caixa.

Strangled by these laces, laces I can barely talk/ Estrengulada per aquests cordons,

That's my air bubble and I'm lost if it pops/ Aquesta es la bombolla d'aire i jo estic perdut si es reventa

We are what we wear, we wear what we are/ Som el que nosaltres vestim, nosaltres vestim el que som.

But see I look inside the mirror and think Phil Knight tricked us all/ Pero jo veig que mirar dins del mirall i creure que Phil Knight ens va enganyar a tots.

Will I stand for change or stay in my box/ Jo voldria cadar-me per un canvi o em quedaré a la caixa

These Nikes help me define me, but I'm trying to take mine, off/ Aquestes Nikes m'ajuden a definirme, pero jo estic provan de trureme-la.

I want to fly/ Jo full volar

Can you take me far away?/ Em pots portar lluny?

Give me a star to reach for/ Dona'm una estrella per assolir

Tell me what it takes/ Diguem el que es necessita

And I'll go so high/ I jo aniré tan alt

I'll go so high/ Jo aniré tan alt

My feet won't touch the ground/ Els meus peus no tocaran el terra

I stitch my wings/ jo coseixo les meves ales.

And pull the strings/ I estirar les cordes

I bought these dreams/ Jo vaig comprar aquests somnis

That all fall down/ que tots ells cauen

It started out with what I wear to school/ Va començar amb el que jo porto a l'escola.

That first day, like these are what make you cool/ Aquest primer dia, com aquests son els que et fan guai.

And this pair, this would be my parachute/ I aquest parell, seràn els meus paracaigudes.

So much more than just a pair of shoes/ Molt més que un parell de sabates.

Nah, this is what I am/ No, aixo es el que sóc

What I wore, this is the source of my youth/ el que jo portava, aquesta es la font de la mega joventut.

This dream that they sold to you/ quest somni que et van vendre

For a hundred dollars and some change/ Per cent dollars i alguns de canvi

Consumption is in the veins/ el cosum és a la venda

And now I see it's just another pair of shoes/ I ara veig que és només un parell de sabates.







Opinon:

This song is protesting about the society. It's about, the people who wants to buy expensive things to show to the others.

FAIRY TALE

Once upon a time, there was a football player called, Gerard and a seamstres girl called Maria. 

Gerard went in a shop. There he went to find a suit. At that moment he saw a beautiful girl, at the same time he started to feel something for her.

Gerard waited for the girl outside of the shop, and when she closed it, they started to talk.

- Do you want something more? - she said
- Yes, what's your name? - he asked.
- Maria. What you need?
- One moment please, my phone is ringing. - he told her.
When Gerard finished to talk, he saw that Maria was gone.
A few days later, Gerard returned to the shop to take his suit. He ask for her and her workmates told him that she was free that day.
On the same night, they met in a disco and they started to talk and dance. At 4am, they left together outside and in there they saw a lot of paparazzis.
Next day in the morning, Maria saw her in the cover of the newspaper. When she went to the work, all the paparazzis stayed at her garden asking for Gerard and last night in a disco.
In the shop, she searched the number of Gerard and when she found it. Maria sent a whats app to him, to talk to her house, and Gerard invited in his house.
In Gerard's house:
- Wow! Your house is beautiful. - told Maria.
- Thanks, but could you see the newspaper? - ask Gerard.
- Yes, is for this reason that I come.
- Well, tha paparazzi began to gossip.
- OMG! But, this rumors can be true...
Maria left out the house and suddenly, Gerard ran to her and then they kissed.

--- A year later. ---
The happy couple, got married in July and we could see what really happened...

CVSPP

Last Saturday, I played a match of volleyball with my team Sant Pere Pescador Voleyball Club versus CV Figueres B. 
When it started, I felt very nervous because I played in a different position in the camp of the match. It was an exciting match. In the first part we won for a little difference of points ( 25-23). After, in the second, we won for more difference (25-14), in the third we lost for 21-25 because we were relaxed as we know that we were wining. Our coach was shouting to us because she knew that we could do it better. At the last part, we finally won (25-26).
It was the best felling of joy, we are very happy to have won our first match. 
This is us .
