Films anf cinema

I really enjoy the films and go to the cinema. But I haven’t gone for a time, because I have to do a lot of things for the university. I like a lot of kid of films like: comedy, drama, epic, war, etc. But there is a film I really love: the notebook, the film starts in a nursing home with an older man reading to an older woman (she has Alzheimer), whose memory is slipping from her more and more every day. He reads the story of two lovers Allie (Rachel McAdams) and Noah (Ryan Gosling) who meet in the south at a carnival, they spend the whole summer together but Allie is forced to move and go to college although she was willing to give it up for Noah. Seven years pass and Allie meets and falls in love with a soldier. When seeing Noah's picture in the paper, Allie is drawn back to him. They spent a few days together and she doesn't want to leave. Allie has to chose between her fiancé and Noah. The most emotion part she had herself written their story in the notebook with the instructions for Noah to "Read this to me, and I'll come back to you." In the final part a nurse finds them in bed together, having both died peacefully holding each other's hands.
I have seen this film two times, and I want to see it again because I love it, I think this film make me remember my grandmother, and it makes me think like the love between two people can be so great. I totally recommend this film, in fact with my college friends we comment a lot the film and we reached the conclusion: how this kind of love can exist? And we thought: I really want to live something like this. For all this things You must see this movie!

Fossil Ardi reveals the first steps of the human race Thursday 1 October 2009 15.30 BST

In the last time a new discovered had revolution the Paleoanthropology and it become in the most important regarding human evolution in the past century. Some researchers (White et al) found the remains of a female who lived and died at the dawn of humanity have been uncovered in Ethiopia, giving the clearest picture yet of the origin of our species. These skeleton is the oldest remain from a human ancestor ever ­discovered, belonged to a female who walked on two legs but was adept at climbing trees and moving through the forest canopy some 4.4m years ago. The researchers named the skeleton Ardi, belongs to a new species Ardipithecus ramidus and may be the earliest human ancestor ever discovered that was capable of walking upright. The investigation shows Ardi stood four feet (1.2m) tall and weighed a little under eight stone (50kg), making her similar in size and weight to a living chimpanzee. But many of Ardi's features are far more primitive than those seen in modern apes, suggesting chimpanzees and gorillas have evolved considerably after they split from the common ancestor they shared with humans. Measurements of Ardi's skeleton reveal she had a brain the size of a chimp's, but very long arms and fingers, and opposable toes that would have helped her grasp branches while moving through the forest. The discovery of Ardi provides vital clues about the earliest human ancestor that lived at the fork in the evolutionary road that led to humans on one side and chimps on the other.

Santiago

I born in Santiago but all my childhood I lived in country near Rancagua. I lived there in my grandfather’s large farm, with my uncle, grandmother, relatives and my sister. I lived there until I was 5 years old and then we moved to Santiago. I have been here since I was five or six years ago when I began the school.
So I can say: I live in Santiago most of my life, however, I don’t know very well the city on many occasions I have missed in different places like: city center and independecia. But in Santiago there are typical places for foreigner tourist visit like Santa Lucia hill; Farellones and El Colorado (ski centers) and San Cristobal hill.
A foreigner tourist should take a city tour with an agency or on their own, with this activity he can know the typical places from Santiago, and if he like one place a lot, he can he can return by his account. In the night he could go out to a pub or discotheque, and know the night in Santiago. Is very important find a good place to stay, because there are places to much noisy and dirty, and for a comfortable stay is important find a quiet hostel or hotel and a good location, like providencia, because there you are in a central place where everything is accessible.
If I were a foreigner tourist I must visit in Santiago:
o Santa Lucia hill: is a small hill in the downtown. Its first use by its conquerors was as a point of reconnaissance, or a lookout in the years of the Conquista. I think this is a very important place in Santiago for the architecture and history.
o San Cristobal hill: is a hill in northern Santiago and the peak is the second highest point in the city. At the peak, there is a church with an amphitheater. Cerro San Cristóbal houses Santiago's largest public park: Parque Metropolitan. This place is enormous and there you can do many activities like: go to the zoo, climb the hill walking or cycling and make barbecues.
o Ski centers: near Santiago there are two important ski centers like: Farellones, Valle Nevado, Lagunillas, La Parva and El Colorado. In these places there are restaurants and hotels where you can eat and stay. I think these are beautiful places where you can practice ski and/or snowboard and have fun.
o Plaza San Enriquez: is place where you can find a lot of discotheques. I think in this place you can know how the night is in Santiago, and enjoy the night with very good music.
o The Concha y Toro Winery: This is a wine tour. I think these is important is considering that Chile is a country that exported wine and there are many vineyards.
