A woman that remembers everything! News Flash

They are some things that confuse the scientist....and this thing that confused them is a 40 year old woman that remembers everything. She remembers everything of the events that happened in her life and as well news that are very old. This woman wrote a letter to a scientist called James McGaugh, which is a scientist specialist in memories of the University Of California. So he realist that this woman can remember everything that happened every days life. This scientist sent a letter that it was writing that when he was telling her a date of any date and any year she was remembering everything.. like how it was the weather, the name of the date as well everything that happened tat day in the news or anywhere else in life. Unfortunately everybody when they saw the letter they were so impress. So the Scientist James McGaught wanted to discover with his group what causes these happen.
Until now from six years ago they didn't found anything what causes ti for example when the woman sent the letter. Unfortunately the scientist was still in thinking...Now he is for sure what abilities this woman has. He believe that the cause that this woman remembers everything is that for her for sure it was something special. He said that she remembers things that he doesn't know. One question that he asked her was to tell him the dates that the old scientist told her before six years. Also she remembered a date that the very top scientist arrived first to Germany and he was shocked because he didn't remember it his self''as well he was a scientist too''!! One of the abilities that they got from their search is that this woman separates, to columns the events that are happening.As well when she was small she wanted her things to be in one place and she was getting agree when her mother was moving them from one place to another.But still these cause doesn't explain hoe she can remember them still!
The next step that the scientist will do is to exam with different ways her mind but still there abilities of knowing what causes it will b difficult. But doctors and as well scientist build a new way that they will discover it. So i and different people are waiting for their news!

News Flash! (Man bites police, his 'dangerous dog' runs away)


The Portuguese newspaper Diário de Notícias reported that a man bit a police officer following a fight over a "dangerous dog".
A 35-years-old man was walking his Pit Bull Terrier in Cova da Moura on Sunday, 10:15 am, when two police officers stopped him for not having a harness and muzzle on his dog.
The man refused to identify himself and proceeded to threaten the officers with his dog, turning the animal loose upon them. The dog raned away.
The police officers then attempted to get the man who fought back with them, breaking one officer's finger and biting the other on the wrist. Both then went to the hospital by the Metropolian police.The man, yesterday, has been placed under house arrest while police continue to search for the missing pooch.
The authorities have been cracking down on "dangerous dogs" since 2004 when legislation went into effect targeting the breeds "Argentinean Dogue, Pit Bull Terrier, Staffordshire Bull Terrier, Rottweiler, Inu Tosa and other dogs that have been crossed with these breeds." 2 Portuguese law compels such dogs to be walked on a leash no longer than 3 ft. by persons no younger than 16 years old. They must also carry identification papers and wear a muzzle. (The dogs or the humans?)

Twister!

Hi My name is Antonia and i am a meteorologist From Dundee Univercity of Scottland. I saw a movie called Twister that i Liked a lot and i wanted to tell you some things about it.
Twister was made in 1996 and it was directed by Jan de Bond and written By Michael Christon and Anne-Marie Martin. The story is about a girl that lost her father during a tornado. These girl with the name Joe when she grow up she was still feeling sad about her loved people that died in these tornado so as the years past she becomes a meteorologist a storm cheser.Beacuse she wanted to find out with her friends the invection of hel,ping people least at least some minites before the tornado comes. I liked these movie beacuse they were some staff that i do as well as my job but in the movie they dont do very real things and that bothered me alot for example when they were showing the tornados they were like moving very slowly and that in a reality a tornado moves very fast and they keel people very quiqly , but their anfortunatly it showd the opposite but i steel like it!

Honor Killings

Honor Killings

Honor Killings is: the murder of a family or a clan member by one or more fellow family members.The ireporters concerning culture practices in the family that they are towards woman indicated that honor killings had been reported in Egypt, Jordan ,Lebanon ,Morocco ,Pakistan ,Punjab, Syrian Arab Repablic, Turkey, Yemen and other Mediterranean and Persian Gulf countries.These killings result from the perception that udefense of honour justifies killing a person whose behavior dishonor their clan or family.During 2002 in Pakistan it is estimated that 245 woman and 137 men were killed in the name of Karo-Kari in Sindh. The estimated amount of people that died in a year are over 5,000 people woman and men.
Honor suicides is a recent phenomenon of Honour suicides that occurs in Turkey. In this situation there have been many cases when people order or pressure a woman to kill herself beacuse maybe this may be done so people avoid penalties of murdering her. In Iraq woman in Diyala were forced into honor suicides.
In 2005 in Europe six Muslim woman she was killed by her brother because she didnt wanted to stay with her hasband of forced of marriage. South Asia is one of the worst reported continents for honor killings.Honor Killings it doesn't have laws so it is not a law in some countries but as in my opinion i dont think it should be like that.There are a lot of murders and killings in the world for many reasons, i think everybody should try to do something abou it and expecially the person who has the most power beacuse now the newas are reporded everywere and this affects many people aswell as tourist that come for holidays maybe they can be involved in this situation of Honor Killings.

Anticipation Guided Response- Shabanu

Anticipation Guided Response- Shabanu

1)It is possible to experience love at first sight

I disagree because you can say to them that you love them if iyou knoiw him well and if you know his personality. Some people look at them and they say they are good for them but as you keep kmowing him well then you realise that what you were thinking it was wrong.

2)Two strangers stuck on an island together could learn to love each other.

I disagree because you dont know jthis person and aswell you dont know what kind of person she/he maybe are . And aswell maybe you dont have the same characteristics with him or her or maybe you have nothing in common.I think that you should pick someone that you spoke to him and know him from before.

3.) It is a good thing to sacrifice your happiness for other people.

I agree because maybe some people want to be happy beacuse maybe the way that they live or their life is much lower than yours and i think in my opiunion that is good to give to them something or love.

4.) Women in your society are free citizens.I agree and disagree because beacuse some people in many countries do whenever they do like for example England but i disagree beacuse in my opinion everybody should not be free and they should follow the laws.

The Outsiders

The Outsiders
I like better the book . Reading a book I relax and i feel very comefortable. By reading I understand more the story than watching and listening to it. Watching a movie makes me feel very tired and sleepy. The book gives me the apportunity to read at any time whenever I have time. I can carry it in my bag enen if I travel . Also I find that if there is something I dont understand I can go back and read the pages I want again. Through reading books can also improve my knowledge on good vocabulary and dictation. Reading a book I can get in detail all information of the story but watching a movie of the same story I find ouit that a lot of content is deleted. It is not that I dont like movies but books are my best friends whenever I go. They are valuable to me and other people can read them after me and for the years to come. Like the Outsiders.

Pets - fashion

Pet fashions have become big business. A year or two ago pets were fashion accessories (a la Paris Hilton), but now they have fashions of their own. Major retailers now produce lines of clothing and accessories for dogs and other pets and sell them at upscale boutiques in New York City...

A story!

It was last summer when all the family dicided to visit Egypt it was a fantastic idea for all of as.
The trip did not take long but i have already imagined and lived there touring with Mr Ali our tourist guide.
I found myself near the river Nile. I have studied about it and i new quite a lot about it but Mr Mohammed an egyptian man looked amazed.
This river my young girl has been the life of egypt for years. It always fed us and our children. It is the source of life. I asked him what was he wearing on his head and he said that was a part of the egyptian dress. After that i found myself into a big race car no.8 and i went to the pyramids. I met a knight called Hassan and he tried to stop me approching the pyramids .<>he said and stood looking at me very strictly . <> I asked him <>. She looked to me like chinese or egyptian and she was holding a big bag full of treasure. The knight got very angry and shouted <>
< I woke up and i was suprised with my dream Mr Ali said to me thatwhat i dreamt of eas true and that egyptians believed in after life that is why their treasure was burried with them and their bodies were preserved.
It was then time for me to go round amd learn more about Egypt and its civilisation..!!!
