CANDLE IN THE WIND
"Candle In The Wind"
Goodbye Norma Jean
Though I never knew you at all
You had the grace to hold yourself
While those around you crawled
They crawled out of the woodwork
And they whispered into your brain
They set you on the treadmill
And they made you change your name
And it seems to me you lived your life
Like a candle in the wind
Never knowing who to cling to
When the rain set in
And I would have liked to have known you
But I was just a kid
Your candle burned out long before
Your legend ever did
Loneliness was tough
The toughest role you ever played
Hollywood created a superstar
And pain was the price you paid
Even when you died
Oh the press still hounded you
All the papers had to say
Was that Marilyn was found in the nude
Goodbye Norma Jean
From the young man in the 22nd row
Who sees you as something as more than sexual
More than just our Marilyn Monroe

MUSIC AND ART
Jacques Brel is the best singer I've ever heard. The song I prefer is "Ne me quitte pas"
Francis Bacon is one of the most important painters in UK, he died ten years ago in Madrid and
he represented the new expressionist movement in Europe.
After seeing these fotographs about a singer and an artist; tell everybody who are your favourite artists ( singer, actor, painter, writer...) adding a sample of their work and the reason why you like them.

TSUNAMI by gemma aleixandre
TSUNAMI
On December 26, in the 2004, there was an earthquake four thousand meters deep in the Indian Ocean, About 260 kilometres west of the coast of Aceh (Indonesia).
I think this catastrophe is a very important fact in history, because died many people, other people were wounded and it caused a huge damage.
The earthquake took place near the island of Sumatra, Because two tectonic plates, the Australian and Eurasian clashed, caused tremors throughout the region west.
This movement in turn displaced hundreds of cubic metres of water and generated a tsunami or tidal wave. The wave then spread throughout the Indian Ocean with an enormous speed. It caused chaos. At 9 degrees. For the next 15 minutes to 10 hours occurred multiple tsunamis.They reached 15 metres high that struck across the region on the Indian Ocean coast especially devastating parts of Indonesia, Sri Lanka, India and Thailand.
In Somalia (in Africa to 4100 km.'s Epicenter) there were such abroad effects thatcaused waves that have travelled the Pacific Ocean causing unrest in the tides of North and South America.
The consequences of the tsunami were:
-230,000 people killed, about 2 million will need humanitarian aid, and about 5 million have been left homeless
-Decreased tourism in these countries
-The earthquake also caused a slight alteration on the speed of rotation of the earth and cut the length of day by three microseconds.
