A Photograph that I like


First I am going to comment to you that when I was a child I liked to take pictures and to be inside them, but now not. In my home there are many pictures because to my family likes it, the reason, save the recollections. I think that it's very good.
Now I'm going to comment about a photography that I like.
Searching for Internet I found this photography. Like you can see, there are two cows in the middle of the meadow. The really important thing in this picture is to see the content and the context that was taken the photography. The context of this picture is the Indian society (in this century) and in this society the cows are sacred, for this reason they are so well elegant.
Why is the Cow sacred in India? Because it is considered as Goddes of Wealth ¿Why? Because they provide milk which helps sustain life, life of adults and children. The by-products of the milk and yoghurt were an integral part of their daily diet.
For me it's amazing to see that in this culture, these animals are so important, What do you think? This picture was taken by an Italian photographer called Francesco Tosi.

A CAREER-RELATED WEB SITE


Hi everyone! Today I come to speak you about this Internet site: Http: // sociologiac.net/ It's a very interesting blog of sociology called " contemporary Sociology ". It was created by a sociologist, he currently lives in Mexico, he is called Christian Hernández. In this page you can find current topics with real facts that they are described from a sociological perspective, also there is information of famous sociologists and it gives information of the career in the rest of the world. The contents are diverse and they are directed or created to sociologists or to sociology students because the language is very specialized and the topics aren't of common interest. But, there are topics for the general people, they are small articles without depth and just can be used like guide to have a minimal knowledge about the topic and the sociology.
It' s important that sociology has these Internet sites to give the knowledge to everybody.

Mp3 player forever


The Mp3 Player is my favorite piece of technology. I use this instrument all the time in all places, obviously when I have time to do it. Before, nine or eigth years ago, the people were listening to music using the "disc man", this instrument working with one Cd and their size it was similar to Cd, so it was bigger than the Mp3 player of today. I had a Disc Man, I love it, always I was doing my own Cds for listen my favorite music, like... It's relative, my past it can be a very very darkness place, but I was listening to U2, Depeche Mode, The Cure and latin rock like Soda Stereo.

The Mp3 player of today is such a so good invention because it has a small size, it doesn't needs Cd and generally it doesn't use battery. Now, for example, I can put it in my pocket without problems, really it's a instrument very comfortable. But, this instrument is in progress, now, for example, there are instruments like Ipod or Iphone, they have a lot of aplications and in the future probably they will have more, but I never will change my mp3 for nothing.
Usually, I use this instrument in public places like the street. Generally, I use the mp3 player when I travel about this grand city, when I'm bored in any place or, sometimes when I'm studying.

Introduction

Hi, my name's Pablo. I'm 20. I'm from Castro, Chiloé. My born city is located in the South of Chile and it's a beautiful place. A lot of people arrive to Castro, they are tourists and visiting my city finding landscapes. In Castro is my family, they are my father, my mother and my little sister, Jocelyn, she has only eight years and is an important person in my life.

Currently I'm studying sociology in Chile's University, I'm in the third year. To study Sociology is necesary it have responsability to read and capacity to analize the society seeing the norms.

In my life I'm interesting in playing some sports like soccer and chess, I try to play all weeks with my schoolmates. Since the secundary I play those sports and I feel that they are interesting forms to take care of your body and mind.

In my free times I watch movies and I play computer games. My favorite movie is The Godfather, the first, of Marlon Brando and I think that it's the best movie of the history because there' are strong emotions, fear and blood.

I spend a lot of time doing homeworks or reading difficult texts, they are necesary activities but not always is funny do that.

¿What I hate? Mmm... some things like travel into Transantiago, it have pets (only I like the virtual pets) or sing (I sing so bad)
