CHANGING LAWS

The government plans to introduce a new law which will mean that the students, will go to school on Saturday mornings in order to improve the level of education.

In the first place, In my opinion this would have positive for our education consequences but it won't be a good idea for teenagers.

It probably improve our lever in all the country.

I think that this is unfair because on Saturday, teachers should work and the state will pay you more. And now, this is not good knowing we are in crisis. Ther is an alternative method to achieve the government's aims that approved a new law.

Finally, the alternative methods about the plans to introduce school on saturday are with internet or like always, going to the school. The results shoudn't be agreed for guys.

I'm organizing the visit of the drama group “de 7 a 9” from Mieres (la Garrotxa) that are coming on Monday.

They arrive at 11a.m. Here in the school by bus. First, they're going to do a presentation and then we bring them to visit the school. They are going to have some free time because they'll be tired for the trip.

At half past one, we have lunch in the school's ground. If it would rain, we're going to have lunch inside the school.

In the afternoon, we're going to visit the town and go shopping.

Finally, in the evening while we are cooking dinner, they're going to walk around “la Draga” to see the lake and later, we all have dinner there.

That's all! I hope that you will come. Se you on Monday.

David Guetta (The world's Number One DJ)

French dance music was not a major export until David Guetta appeared. Meet the superstar DJ who's making the world dance!

David Guetta always wanted to mix music. At age 13, the French teenager mixed his first albums at home, and at 14 the started organizing parties in his home. He thought: "I want to be a DJ - I don't need to be good at Maths!"

In 1984, at only age 17, David got a job as a DJ in a club in Paris. HE soon got a reputation for being a good DJ with a talent for mixing music. 

Early success

For David GUetta, the journey to international fame waws slow. In 1996, he started to DJ in clubs on the Sapnish island of Ibiza. Then he released compilation albums of his club hits and started making his own records. His two albums JUst a Little More Love (2002) and Pop Life (2007) were hits in Europe.

International star

David had difficulty getting fans in the USA, however. This changed when David produced the hit single "I Gotta Feeling" by the Black Eyed Peas in 2009. The same year, his own album, One Love was an international hit too. Suddenly, everyone wanted to work with him!

Friends...

Today, David's club night in Ibiza is famous around the world. He goes there on his private jet and stays in his luxury villa: it's the sort of place you see in a James Bond film. That is because David is now a superstar DJ: he plays dance festivals to 80000 fans, earns more than 3 million euros a year and makes albums featuring stars like Rihanna and Flo Rida. 

-...and enemies

But David has critics too. Electronic music purists say that he is too comercial, that his music is too simple and that he has no talent. His club nights are criticized for being too elitist. HIs title "producer" is also ambiguous: it's not clear if he has financed a music project, written the music or just mixed it. 

Confidence is everything

David Guetta doesn't agree with the critics: "Our sound is taking over the plante," he says. But he doesn't have to defend himself. David knows that he has created a sound that in instantly recognizable. HE is the first person to combine the roles of DJ, producer and solo artist so successfully. Nobody can "produce" succesful modern pop like David GUetta can. That is whay the Frenchman has the title of world's Number One DJ!

Happy Easter from the White House

Every Easter, the American President invites 30000 people to his garden to hunt for eggs:it's called the Easter Egg Roll. There's a giant Easter Bunny, and President Obama's family and other celebrities read stories to children.
