Hello today I bring you my opinion article about the Philipines Typhon, which destroy all of the cost of Philipines.

I think that we can help the people from Philipines sending food and materials for do houses, because practically the Typhon have destroyed all of the cost of Philipines.
But I think too that this problem would be solve if in Philipines they built the houses with the typical form to evite being destroyed by the typhon. With the form i mean the typical estructure for evite this.

So in Philipines they have a very grave problem that is this:
In a "desarroyated" country, you can't have this problems of organitacion, because the governement knew that they'll have a Typhon two days ago, but they didn't say anything to the people from Philipines.
I know that in Philipines they've a very important problem with the homeless or poor people but if you know that you'regoing to have a Typhon attack, the minimun that you can do is saysomething to the people who don't know this.

My conclusion is that if you can say to the people who depend on you to know that a Typhon is going to attack your country say it.
I agree with sending food and all of this but the others countries only are going to send food etc... when  the problem is fresh, my question is ¿Why don't you send materials and food after or before that this problem happened?

So this is my opinion I hope you like it.

My trip to the Costa Brava

Hi today I will tell my trip to the Costa Brava so let 's begin .
First I went to the apartament it was very large, with great views , and the pool and beach were 2 minutes . Almost did the same plan every day , this plan was first to see a nice town or village that were recommended in the guide, then eat in that town , going to the beach and then go to the pool. The cities that  we saw were these : Torroella de Montgri , Pals, Besalu, Figueres , l' Empordà and L' Escala. The cities I most liked were Besalu i L' Escala. And I also liked the Salvador Dalí Museum in Figueres .
Now I will say you L' Escala and Besalu which are the two towns that have impressed me most as I said before .
Besalu Girona is a small town , halfway between Olot , Figueres, Banyoles ( other very nice people ) , which originated in the tenth century castle about Besalu . From that time the Jewish baths are preserved , the church of the Monastery of St. Peter and St. Julian, the house Cornellà , the church of San Vicente and above the bridge fortified entrance to the villa , buildings that together form a unit monuments of great historic interest , and in 1966 , declared a National Historic-Artistic and now , has been proposed to be declared World Heritage Site .
L' Escala is a small fishing village on the coast of Alt Empordà , just in what they call the Costa Brava Girona : small coves (many of them accessible only by boat ) , coarse sand beaches , deep edge (no having to walk a mile before you reach the water waist , five foot steps and you usually lose ) , rocky cliffs ending in the sea , deep green pines bending under inclement winds tortuously.

Biographies:
Frank Capra:
Born in Sicily under the name of Francesco Rosario Capra, the director emigrated to the United States at the age of six years. Once there, Frank began his studies at the California Institute of Technology and became obtaining the degree in chemical engineering.
Capara began his career in silent films, beginning to work as a writer for comic short films of Hal Roach and Mack Sennett. But seeing his great talent, great comedian Harry Langdon required its services to address some success as Man Cannon and Long Pants.
The thing with Langdon did not end too well and the director entered a new phase with a contract at Columbia. After some projects with these studies, the great consecration of Capra came in the film It Happened One Night which won five Oscars, including best director and best film, and it was a blockbuster.
From here Capa specialized in a genre style social comedy, his best known films are Lost Horizon, Mr. Deeds, Live as you! and Mr. Smith.
Finally Frank Capra died in La Quinta, California of a heart attack when he was  sleeping at the age of 94.




 Cary Grant:
Born to a poor family in his youth he joined a theater group with which toured the United States in 1920. After emigrating to this country, worked in several Broadway theater companies, with uniform success.
In 1932 rolled This is the night, his first film, in which he played a supporting role but that was the beginning of a brilliant career. During the following years he became one of the leading actors in Hollywood, especially thanks to his aristocratic bearing and his talent for comedy. Bringing Up Baby (1938) by Howard Hawks, and The Philadelphia Story (1940), George Cukor, both played by Katharine Hepburn, were the two films that launched him to stardom.
 The many films in which he participated during these years include The Awful Truth (1937), The bride was it (1940), Suspicion (1941), Arsenic and Old Lace (1944), Notorious (1946), Monkey Business (1953), to Catch a Thief (1955) and With North by Northwest (1959). In the 1960s he starred in Charade (1962), Stanley Donen, and Three's Company (1966), Walters. He retired in 1966 and in 1970 received an honorary Oscar for his entire career.

I liked a lot the film, and is very funny. The english is not difficult but they speak very fast.
 My favorite scene is a very funny scene, I think the funniest of the film.

In this scene the star or main character Cary Grant tries to know what happens with the person who is in the drawer and the aunts of Mortimer  say it like something obvious and like it isn’t important so is very funny. In this scene we know why there is an ad in the entrance of the house that says if there is anyone who want a place for live go to this house. My favourite sentence in this scene is this:

Mortimer-Do you wish to tell me how he died?

Aunts-Oh, Mortimer, do not be so nosy. That gentleman died because he drank a glass of wine that had poison

Mortimer-And how had poison in the glass?

Aunts-We put it in the wine because it tastes less. In the tea has a very special taste

Diference between at the corner and in the corner

In the corner of is used when referring to a concept of closed space.
At the corner of and on the corner of are used to indicate an open space, say street or park.

Examples:
The tree is at the corner of the street.
The tree is in the corner of the street.

Diference: In time, On time

"On time" means exactly at the appointed time, either before or after:
Sentences:

 The match begins at 4:30. I will be there on time. El partido empieza a las 4.30. Yo estaré allí puntual (llegaré a las 4.30, ni antes, ni después)

 The bus leaves at 3. I will be there on time.  El autobús sale a las 3.00. Yo estaré allí puntual (justo a las 3.00)
 "In time" means with a lot of time before anithing begins.
Sentences:

 The match begins at 4:30. I will be there in time. El partido empieza a las 4.30. Yo estaré allí con tiempo (llegaré antes de las 4.30)

  The bus leaves at 3. I will be there in time. El autobús sale a las 3.00. Yo estaré allí con tiempo (antes de las 3.00)

Night Without End

Night Without End

An airplane crash lands on the Greenland ice cap far from its usual route after flying in a seemingly erratic fashion. A scientific research team based near the crash site rescues the surviving passengers and takes them to their station. The team finds that one passenger and most of the flight crew are dead with one of the pilots to be shot in the back. The only means of contact with the outside world, a radio set, is destroyed in a seemingly accidental manner.

With not enough food for everyone and no hope of rescue, the leader of the scientific research team, Dr Mason, decides that they must set out for the nearest settlement.

They lift a lot of adventerures, because a group of criminals were founding them. But one day they manage to catch up the criminals near the shore where a trawler waits for the criminals. But the intervention of navy, on information from Captain Hillcrest, frightens off the trawler. The criminals are surrounded here and after a bitter hand to hand combat between the protagonists and the criminals, the mechanism and the hostages are rescued.

My favourite protagonist was DR. Mason because I liked his determination and his control of the situacion.

I liked the book, it is good, but it’s difficult for read and at the beginning I missed the weft.

Alistair MacLean, the son of a Scots Minister, was brought up in the Scottish Highlands. In 1941, at the age of eighteen, he joined the Royal Navy; two and a half years spent aboard a cruiser were to give him the background for 'HMS Ulysses', his first novel, the outstanding documentary novel on the war at sea. After the war he gained an English Honours degree at Glasgow University, and became a schoolmaster. In 1983, he was awarded a D. Litt. from the same university.

Maclean is the author of twenty-nine world bestsellers and recognised as an outstanding writer in his own genre. Many of his titles have been adapted for film - 'The Guns of the Navarone', 'Force Ten from Navarone', 'Where Eagles Dare' and 'Bear Island' are among the most famous.
