Images With No Comments - Part II

Lorena's last post remind me a video I had in one of my blogs. Here you have. Watch, observe, think about, know and defend.

Images With No Comments

Norbert Rosing is a German photographer and he was in Hudson Bay in Canada when he saw a big polar bear near his dogs. He was afraid of it because he thought it was going to be the end of his dogs but the polar bear only wanted to play with them. I think pictures are beautiful and they represent a big lesson for us. Enjoy these beautiful pictures!!

How to Post a Comment?

From time to time people in class ask me about how to post a comment on the blog. You have several possibilities but I'm going to comment on you the easiest. At the bottom of every post you have something like this:

What you have to do is click on "X comentarios" and a pop-up will appear. A pop-up is a little window ;) . Going back to the previous image, imagine we click on "0 comentarios". The pop-up to appear would be this:

What you have to do now is click on the option "Nombre/URL" and something like this will appear:

Now fill in the field "Nombre" with any name you want to you. The field "URL" is optional as you can see. This field is useful for people who, for example, have a web page. Imagine I fill in these fields. It would stay something like this:

The only thing you have to do now is to write your comment above. If you want, you can also write the comment first and do what I have explained later. The last thing to do is click on the button "Publicar Comentario". Do you want to practice it right now? Leave a comment ;) .

Moral: Practice makes perfect.

Why Do You Have to Learn English?

Among my hundreds of emails to read, I came across this video. Pay attention because one day you could be in the same situation...

Have a nice day.

My First Post

Hi everybody!!!

I write just to say hello and to compose my first article on this blog. I don't have anything special to comment because my weekend has been too bored.

Anyway I want to talk you about two websites that I discovered and can be very useful for all of us.

The first one is about phone calls. As I may you know, when, as a customer, you phone to a number started by 900 you are paying a higher rate tan normal. Well, these lines are normal lines and have an equivalent number NOT started by 900. So, if you call to this equivalent number you'll pay a standard rate. And the question is "how to know the equivalent telephone number?". If you visit the site www.nomasnumeros900.com you can look for the cheap phone number. You only have to write the number started by 900 and click "Buscar". If you're lucky the site will return you the equivalent number but maybe the database doesn't have this 900 number. In this case I'm sorry. Anyway it's better to try.

The second site I wanted to talk you about was another blog that is called www.laelite-pirate.blogspot.com. I think it's very interesting. There's plenty of tvo series to practise our listening and oral comprehension in a funny way.

Well, nothing else. Thank you to Peter for creating the blog and encourage everybody to write something.

P.D.: I'm listening a fantastic song that I recommend you. "I'm yours" of John Mraz.

Dedicated to Juanma

Last wednesday, practicing conversation in class, Juanma told me something about two little kittens that touched him. I don't remember the story exactly but, from my old files, I ve just recovered a video to dedicate it to him. Enjoy it Juanma!

The Plot

Two people raised a lion cub and he was named "Christian". He became very big to be kept for those people, so they decided to let him in freedom to live as a wild lion.

One year later they travelled to the natural reserve where the lion was. They were told that the lion wouldn't remember them. The video was taken in the moment they met.

Get your own opinion.
