Terror and Romantic Movies


When people go to the cinema, they have many options to choose a movie. The most common are romantic and terror movies. Both kinds of movies are for different tastes. The principal differences are in the music, the character, and the emotions.

The terror movies are created to scare people most of the time, and it is a feature that people like. Also, the characters are extrange and crazy people that produce troubles in the film. And finally, when people are watching the movie they have a lot of feelings like fear, hate, desperation or cruelty that are used to capture the attention.

The other gender is the romance. The sound of music is very soft and relaxing, it creates an enviroment of peace. Usually the character of this kind of movies are friendly people, they feel calm and they achive to transmit the same to the public. Emotions like happiness, love and compasion are part of many feelings that people can feel.

As a conclusion, if you go to the cinema, you have to take considerations, and decide what you want to watch, but the most important is to have a good time and enjoy it.

Weapons of Mass Destruction


Biological, Chemical, Nuclear, Radiological are different kinds of weapons of mass destruction (WMD), each one with their dangerous and mortal effects. The end is the same: destruction, blood, dead… Many people think that produce them is a preventive plan to keep the global balance, however the planet could be destroyed with the use of these weapons.
No doubt, the economy is one of the more affected area, also is an unknown issue, but presumably is spending a huge amount of money, with this could sponsor social projects worldwide. It’s important to note that global military spending in 2009 increased to $ 1,400 billion; it’s amazing and depressing to see children with hungry, see crime on the streets, and see problems that could be eradicated with a small percentage of this money. The weapons demand significant amounts of money, and even more weapons of mass destruction, which due to their structure, require expensive materials and investigations that spends considerable resources. Besides these investigations produce impact on nature; in recent days there have been tense relationships between some countries that that build these weapons, the reason is that North Korea has been doing in their territory maritime practices, generating environmental disorder. But that’s not all, if we think about the damage that the world would be if an atomic bomb, a biological weapon, or any of the other is used, human and environmental destruction would be in great magnitude. The Japanese story for example shows how damaging could be these weapons, with the advance of technology, would be unimaginable destructive power.
Many believe that not everything related with the militia and its weapons of mass destruction, perhaps something good is that it creates a balance, specifically, the nations may think that if a country is armed in this way, you must do the same for not being helpless; also leaders could use these weapons because they fear such a response at the expense of equal or greater power.
Despite this seeming peaceable scenario, the history and the facts have had pronounced its verdict. No matter how WMD defenders have tried to justify, nothing can´t hide the victims, the wound and all the suffering linked by decades of bombing, proofs and demonstrations. Sadly, maybe the main desitions are out of our hands, but we can take a stand against this potential destruction and be radical. Let´s do it for the next generations, for the planet, for us…

Global Warming


Many talk of global warming, the consequences that is causing and will cause to our planet, the big problem is that we do nothing to reverse the things that are happening before our eyes, every day we receive emails of world consequences that are causing this problem, but we do nothing to change, every day we see how Mother Nature is punishing us, and we remain of arms crossed. Health authorities have warned the population because environmental quality is decreasing, and with it decreases the quality of life.
Today is more evident a problem, which is gaining strength for a long time ago, and is the environmental pollution. The types of pollution are many and all are important, but there is one more concern because they threatened to human life, it is water pollution. And this type of pollution is the alteration of natural features and this occurs because of human activities that are inappropriate in the treatment of water, making it unsafe in whole or in part daily consumption, or the support plant and animal life. All this because of many factors, such as: pull domestic and industrial solid waste, discharge of domestic sewage and industrial waste oils and courage of oil spills.
We all have a responsibility now, and conservation is one of the most important natural resources for human survival, water is indispensable to human life and it's time to do something to protect it and still enjoy it.

Qualities of a good parent


What’s a good parent? What’s the meaning of a good parent? Certainly is difficult to describe what or who is a good parent, the answer we can find in ourselves, in our own experiences; the way of life teaches us the many qualities that has a parent, the things that we can to receive of they. The love, the compression, the friendship, knows that a parent always will be for us unconditionally, supporting, helping. Today, I’m a father of a baby of 5 year old; and I discovered that is a task very complicated, the most important is to make a good person, reflecting the good values that it has been taught. Finally, I want to conclude saying, behind a good son, there is a good father.

The best presidential candidate for the 2010 PRESIDENTIAL ELECTION in Costa Rica


Who should to govern a nation? A work very complicated and certainly a candidate for the presidency of a country should be special, to combine multiple features that make a person be a leader and think of the development of the country; also his government plan gathers all the necessary to take out our country forward, for these and other reasons, we believe that the candidate Otton Solis is the best to govern, he has many qualities that you need a good president.

Otton is a leader and a determined person from a very young man decided to study economics, and earned his master's degree at the University of Manchester in 1978, is a person ready, he began his political career in the National Liberation Party (PLN) and was Minister for National Planning and Economic Policy, but in 2000 they decided to found a political party, giving citizens the option of believing in new ideas and was one of the leading politicians opposed to free trade with U.S.

He believes in development, but in a sustainable and equitable. This candidate supports everything related to environmental protection, to Citizen Action, the "development" is defined as the poverty reduction, and offers support to costarricans farmers.

We believe that our country suffered constant disappointments in politics, and we must take into account new parties, where leaders like Otton Solis, give us development, but without sacrificing the poorest people.
