FAMILY LIVES WITH LIONS

This news is about a man who hosts two lion pups because the zoo where they were taken care of did not have enough money.
At first, as the pups needed their mother's milk, the man who took them took them every night to the zoo, where the lioness was.
When they grew up, they no longer needed their mother's milk and began to eat meat.

In my opinion, the fact that this man welcomed and cared for these puppies so well is very kind and, moreover, being considered dangerous animals.
I think people who fear having a lion as a pet should not be afraid because if you have that lion as a baby and you are used to being a domestic animal, it will grow and act like a dog or a cat. they can be intimidating because of their size and origin but in that case they will not be dangerous.

AFGHANISTAN PEACE TALKS

The Taliban´s leadership has agreed to a temporary cease-fire.

It will give the US and the Taliban about a week to work out a peace agreement, which would end the 18-year war in Afghanistan. As a condition, the US wants assurances that the country will not harbor terrorist groups.

In November, Donald Trump said that the US will reduce the number of US troops in Afghanistan from around 12,000 to 8,600, but the US will not leave Afghanistan until there is a deal or a total victory of the US.

Personally, it seems good to me that they decide to reach a peaceful agreement, if everything is solved by speaking things people understand each other better, they would be happier and there would be fewer conflicts, problems and poverty

COCKROACH FARM IN CHINA

A long-time lover of creepy crawlies, a 32-year-old Chinese man got the idea for a cockroach farm after a friend who worked in a pharmacy told him about the use of bugs as a cheap source of protein and medication.The man gave up his job and moved to the country to live among the bugs.

I think it is good to have a cockroach farm / business since it uses them for medicine but I also believe that it has negative parts such as hygiene, they are not hygienic animals and can become a focus of infections and if the quantities are not controlled they can become pests

I think it's good that they do it as long as it is with control and hygiene

BLACK

Black is my favorite color and I have decided to make my world about it since it is an interesting color that dislikes many people.

When I say that my favorite color is black or when always dressed in black most people are surprised.

So then I leave some information about this color:

In western societies "black" is almost always used with negative connotations. There are several reasons for this, but the most widely accepted is that the night throughout history has been a negative and dangerous human experience. Another possible explanation is that the spots are more visible on a pale background, and contrast with a cultural concept of "purity"

In conclusion I think that black should not be considered as a color related to sadness, death ... since it is a very beautiful color and with a meaning of purity.

Not because I like black I am gothic or sad and I don't like death, quite the opposite, I am very happy and I like colors and luminosity.

NEW YEAR RESOLUTIONS

A New Year's resolution is a tradition, when the year is ending people thing about things that they want to do or do better for the netx year and be happier.

STUDIES

Now I'm finishing 4th ESO with scientific electives because before I had another idea of ​​science and wanted to study scientific baccalaureate and psychology but when I started biology ang physics this year my idea changed radically. Now I want to study humanistic baccalaureate but my current problem is very difficult for me to get over the sciences subjects, anyway I will pass "scientific" 4th ESO and then I will do humanistic baccalaureate. After that I want to study sociology and human resources at the university.
I choose that baccalaureate because I like philosophy and arts, literature and that kind of things.
I think I did wrong when I chose sciences but everybody makes mistakes. Now I have to study a lot and do a lot of things to pass but it's okay. However,  when I finish this I will be proud of myself and I will be very happy to start studying things I like a lot.

'Man is not truly one, but truly two': duality in robert Louis Stevenson's Strange Case of Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde.

This article was written by Greg Buzwell and it was published on 15 May 2014

'Curator Greg Buzwell considers duality in Strange Case of Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde, exploring how the novel engages with contemporary debates about evolution, degeneration, consciousness, homosexuality and criminal psychology.'

About evolution and degeneration, Dr Jekyll was a good man but Mr Hyde was evil. 

Double lives and misleading appearences, double-consciousness just as the differing appearances of Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde play upon the theories emerging from Charles Darwin’s work, so their differing personalities explore contemporary debates about moral behaviour and the possible plurality of human consciousness.Jekyll ,homosexuality and blackmail were frequently linked in this period.
