Can Internet change the world for the better?

Internet is taking the main role in the evolution of the 21st century. A new era has appeared where Internet has started to be accessible for all population. The question is: can it change our world for the better?

The main conflicts that Internet produces are two: the loss of privacy value and that some information quality is questionable. However, we can only consider valid the first point against it because it is seen that TV and radio information is sometimes censored and manipulated by governments or the economic powers. That's why we can consider Internet more objective, because we can view different points of view, always knowing which sites are reliable. Moreover, Internet allows us to get information that we want where and when we need it, a part from the knowledge that we have in every moment about what is happening around the world.

To conclude, Internet is changing radically the world for the better although the privacy is being secluded of what we consider important.

18 YEARS OLD

It recently was my eighteenth birthday and, of course, was very special for me... at least, the first day of my eighteen. The truth is that I have done practically nothing that I couldn’t do before since my birthday; I only have signed a lot of papers for change my bank accounts.

I know I will see the main advantages in few weeks (I hope) when I get my drive licence. This is what I wish the most at this moment because I am tired of depending of my parents every time that I want to go to a place, especially when we go to party. In these occasions, I expect that I will notice my eighteen too; even more when the rest of my friends are also adult... but, nothing more.

We celebrate days that are equal than the anterior days or the day after. However, the conclusion where I want to arrive is not that we do silly things (that we do); the conclusion of all of this is that we would have to celebrate things more often, never minding the date, because the truth is that we live too stressed and we don’t value things like we would have to do it.

Curling - the new rock 'n' roll after the Sochi Winter Olympics?

The Winter Olympic Games, which have had place the last month, have been quite famous and quite polemical. What refers to sportive activity, a sport practice has featured above the other ones: Curling. Since the Olympics, there have been a lot of curling arrangements around the world to promote this sport and, what is more important, a lot of people have been attracted by it; people who even didn’t know that it exists.

This news has caught my attention because I am one of these people who have discovered the sport during the Olympics and now I think it is very interesting. I don’t mean that I didn’t know that this sport existed, but I knew nothing about the sport; in fact, my prejudices made me think that it was a stupid sport. This is what we often think the ones who practice majority sports like football or basketball. Sport is culture and every sport has got its own values, its difficulties and its personalities. For this reason, I consider really important to know and practice different sports and don’t judge unknown sports too quickly.

US planning full Afghan pullout, Obama tells Karzai

President Barack Obama has warned hisAfghan counterpart Hamid Karzai that the US may pull all of its troops out ofhis country by the year's end. Obama want to make a deal between Afghan to dothe process pacifically and without any accident but the president Hamid Karzaihave refused to do it because he don’t believe in what Obama says.

All that means a little bit more peace, of course, are good news. What cross through my mind is really different. In my opinion, this important and very valued act is only a way for the United States to clean their own public image in front of the rest of the world. They will need a lot of more gestures and a lot of years of good actions if they want to convince me and a big part of the rest of the world that they have stopped to cause war and big conflicts only to get oil and to make the country richer and richer, which is what they have done since they arrived to America. A lot of people know what USA have done to get oil but most of the people can’t see this because they only see a cool country with cool people that are on the top of the world. I think it is necessary to cure this blind people and make them know what really are United States of America.

Neymar: Barcelona pay £11.2m in tax fraud case but deny offence

Barcelona has been punished for tax fraud by the Spanish government and will have to pay 13,5M€. The reason of this punishment is that there are irregularities in the contract of Neymar, the football Brazilian star, where Barça paid theoretically over 50M€.

Knowing that I am a Barça supporter, anyone can thing that I comment this news to defend my club. This is not true, even thought I don’t want to criticize only F.C.Barcelona.

Football moves big quantities of money; every day these quantities increase. The example of Neymar contract is only this, an example, because all big teams try to avoid paying the maximum money possible. The reason why they do that is that they think football is above the law, and this is society’s fault, like most of the issues.

What I want to criticize is that people are happy if their team staff government taxes if is with the objective to win more games and more championships... and they are not conscious that, when they do that, they are staffing to all of us. However, people are conscious that politicians have to be punished when they are corrupt.

When football clubs staff to all of us, we have to penalize them, like we do when politicians do it.

Feminism

Pride and Prejudice has a representation of the feminism in Elisabeth even though the novel was created in the 18th century. It is true that she does not say it and surely she does not consider herself a feminist but the way she acts, giving respect and valuing herself, is not typical for a girl in the 18th century.

Feminism is not a bat concept like sexism is. The thing is that feminism has borned to fight against sexism, a social issue that is associated with past. Thanks of feminism; society in developed countries has done big advancements. We can see it in the advertisements, in the governments, in the law... However, there is a long way in front of us if we want to eliminate definitively the sexism. If I have said some places where we can see the improvement, I have to say too that we still can see the sexism in these places: the cleaning products are always announced by women, the governments are more represented by men and we can still see some prejudices associated with people sex.

To conclude, feminism has been a positive movement and we need it to stay in our society if we want to continue advancing and we don't want to return to the past.
