I look through several webs that Pope's was accused for cover up several priests who had done sexual abuses to youngers, and then, they say that Pope can't go to testify in the courts because He has immunity because he's a State's Boss. There are lots of uncovers that members from the Catholic church had done sexual abuses, and the Pope's ignores that and continues his Holly celebrations without explanations.
I have a dramatic question: If the priests are good, and several priests do this sins, how we can trust with the Pope's power and choose him for one of the most powerful persons at the world?
I think that's a topic which the society has to solve early because the "power" is focusing in several persons who don't really need it and shouldn't have it. For example, Bill Gates is the most rich man in the world, who gave the posibility to have a computer in all the houses, but did she made the same effort than the amount of his money?
Then, we can state that all the persons are fallible and they have their imperfections and their talents, but not for it we can impose the character down the law. For the same reason, a person who have lots of relationships with law's people, he couldn't go to the prison (it remembers me Al Capone)
In short, I'm against this type of policy and I will make to come Pope to testify and do explanations about this cases of sexual abuses...
Science experiments are really uncomfortable to be decided and putted on the good hand or in the bad hand. Firstly, I want to make a question which we will answer at the end: Are the experiments good for the health or are they only curiosity of the human’s mind?
On the one hand, the experiments can help with the medicines development and also it can improve the scientific instrumental. For this, Dr. Frankenstein made an experiment which could help the medicine and give live to the dead persons who had just died.
On the other hand, the experiments on dead bodies don’t show any type of respect for the dead persons, because Frankenstein took some parts of different bodies and he united all of them, and then, The Monster wasn’t really happy to be alive. Although, the experiments usually takes places on animals, who suffer this immoral experiments and they finish dieing without dignity.
To finish my comment, I want to say that they have to control the experiments on living being bodies and also they can practice this experiments only if they are moral experiments and accepted for the dead persons giving a part of their body for the medicine development.
The PowerPoint was ok, and also the music which set the type of the presentation. I think it was really OK to wear the typical necklace because it helped a lot to capture the attention of the occasional students...
It also helped our self because we were really stressed and then, when we could realise that we shocked with all the people and they were listening us, then we were more relaxed and chattier.
I think we were watching the audience most of the time, and if it's not it was for highlight some aspects of the PowerPoint...
The structure of the PowerPoint could be better because it was a bit mixed and it could complicate the understanding...
The content was OK for my pleasure because it was about interesting things of the Country although the History doesn't like to all of us.
The language wasn't bad but it could be better, because there were some words which were repeated all the time... There were the pronunciation and the intonation which were so bad because I was really nervous and I couldn't be concentrated with the pronunciation, although I searched it in internet and I practised it...
The first people to come to Hawaii were Polynesians from MarquessasIslands, in fifth century. They came with catamarans, their typical transport of multihulled boat.
At tenth century came the Tahitians who introduced the social order, religion and traditions.
The first king of Hawaii was Kamehameha I, and he united all the islands of Hawaii and established the Kingdom of Hawaii in 1810.
Festivities
The New year opens with the Merrie Monarch Festival, which consists in a Hula competition, the typical dance which has place in April.
In March, there’s the Lei Days which give place to the Handmade Leis Competition. The leis are the typical flower necklaces which we wear on.
Then, in June we can take place in the biggest festivity of Hawaii, the Day of Kamehameha, the king who I mentioned before. They dress the statue of Kamehameha and also there is a flower parade on floats and canoes. They use autochthones flowers for all the decoration and dresses.
Then, in summer we can visit the Aloha Week in September, which contains lots of cultural events and canoes races with traditional music.
In December we can visit the famous surfing competition Eddie Aikau Memorial Big Wave Classic, with waves rising up to 6 metres! Sure I won’t try to surf a wave with this dimensions.
Interesting Places:
Hawaii is divided in various islands, like we had just seen.
Oahu, the most important islands is where we can visit the capital of Hawaii, Honolulu, and the famous beach of Waikiki.
It’s one of the islands which absorbs most of the tourism. There’s the NorthCoast where we can practice surf and also we can visit Nu’uanu Pali, the place which look like heaven… There we can see fantastic views over clives splashed by waterfalls.
Then, in the BigIsland, also named Hawaii, has a great geological power in the VolcanoesNational Park. Where we can practice diving and see most of the rests of the Old Hawaiian culture.
In Maui we can visit the Halekala Crater, which is appeared with a Moon Crater. It contains fantastic views of mountainous landscape and it has good conditions to practice windsurf.
Then, if we aren’t sure to visit all this things and we don’t want to meet with other tourists to feel the real relax of the PacificIslands, we can visit the NeighbouringIslands like the KiholoBay, where we can spend the day surrounded by lava and a black sands beach, frequently visited by giant turtles.
Also we can go to Hilo, situated on the wind coast of BigIsland which has approximately 3200mm of rain which makes a spectacle phenomena waterfalls which fall into the ocean.
Traditions:
Aina:
It could be the most important heritage of Hawaii. It consists about the respect for the earth, because it’s a present from God and they can take profit of it. In present days, they take care of the earth and they try to conserve the beautiful of it.
Ohana:
The old Hawaiians were really trusty to the importance of the family. All work was assigned to all the components of the family by the same way. They were really protectors between them and all of them contributed for all the tasks.
Now, in business situations, the Hawaiians can considerate impolite don’t ask about the family.
Hula:
It’s the hardest aspect of the Hawaiian’s heritage. It’s more than a style of dance. Hula explains a story with the canticles, gesture and movements. It’s danced to honour the God, to stand out success of a hero or to celebrate the earth’s beauty.
Art:
The old Hawaiians were skilful about Na Hana Noeau which means :
Work skilful and wise.
They also include this art to functional objects:
For example:
- The “Kapa” Is a fine material working with wauke’s wood. For example, this was used in blankets, “lava lavas” and “muumuus”. They take 8 hours per day to do copies of designs of this traditional art.
- “Lauhala” is an art which uses hala leaves which are used for lots of products from hats to carpets.
The typical music of Hawaii:
The Ukelele is the most recognized instrument of Hawaii and then, the less known are “ohe hano ihu”, a flute made with bamboo and the “ipu heke Ole”, a type of drum made with a pumpkin. It’s usually used in Hula dances, and the “ohe hano ihu” is now used in falsettos and also fro the reggae. It’s really fun to watch how they play this because they play it by the air-nose.
The Ocean is another abstract concept. It’s related with “Aina”, the love to the earth and it’s an important concept because Hawaiians love the ocean because they use it for their travels, their fishing and their pleasure. It’s another part of their life.
The film "Requiem for a Dream" makes a compilation of the human's feelings which consists in love, be loved, and the film makes a comparison of this between two points of view: the glory which they live in the beginning of the film, and the tragedy which finish with their lives in the final of the film.
This film makes reflect the observer about how he faces up his life and how he will react about the problems of the obsessions of this life. Also there are elements like drugs or dreams which makes more real this situation which we can put ourselves in their shoes.
This film made me reflect about which way I have to choose, because all of the young students like me could choose the wrong way like drug’s way, to don’t face up their problems and also be one more of this society without studies…
I’m sure it doesn’t help us with which ways we have to choose but I’m sure this film is really real and gives an example of a type of life which we want to avoid of it.
In all the days, the humanity has a fear to say what really thinks about all the things, and then they close their mind for fear of offending or for fear of the reaction from the people who they know.
In a near future, we could express with all of our sincerity, because there are people who struggle hard to get this now… It looks like a stupid thing, but that’s our expressivity which is hit by the seriousness and the fear, and we are all the time affected for all the things which we can’t say or we can’t do.
The global education had interfered in the mind of millions of students who will be the next society and they will think like they had been thinking in the years of their education… then, if the teachers don’t get involved in the lives of their students, how will they know the meaning of the things and the form to express themselves… that’s a point of view which more people won’t share with me because it’s radical but effective…
I don’t want to proclaim the chaos in our society, but we have to recognize we are so stressed and we don’t think in the values of this life. All of this has to change, in bit proportions but it has to change for our happiness...
