A  SPECIAL CHRISTMAS POST
FOR YOU



A little time more and we will be on Christmas hollydays. Oh, yes! Christmas is the best time in the year: you are at home with your family and enjoy a lot. Really, It is important because Jesus has been born, but we think other things, like the presents. But, anyway... 
Of course, Santa Claus mustn't be absent...




And the Three Magic Kings can't be missing either. They are great people because I know them. They get things out of nothing, like Doraemon.



You know, they are coming. If you have been a good person they will give you the things you want (the presents), but if you have been a bad person, they will give you things you hate (carbon).
So, I wish you the best in Christmas. Be happy and have good festivities. Merry christmas and a happy New Year!!








Merry Christmas



Hello, have you written your Santa's card yet? I have just done it. I will show it to you:

The domestic violance is a type of  physical or psychological violence against any person. This domestic violance affects negativelly to their social physical and psycological.





Types of violence:
                            

                                                            Physical abuse and domestic violence






When people talk about domestic violence, they are often referring to the physical abuse of a spouse or intimate partner. Physical abuse is the use of physical force against someone in a way that injures or endangered that person. Physical assault or battering is a crime, whether it occurs inside or outside of the family. The police have the power and authority to protect you from physical attack.








Emotional abuse: It’s a bigger problem than you think.

Despite what many people believe, domestic violence and abuse is not due to the abuser loss of control over his or her behavior. In fact, abusive behavior and violence is a deliberate choice made by the abuser in order to control you.



Violent and abusive behavior is the abuser’s choice


 Despite what many people believe, domestic violence and abuse is not due to the abuser loss of control over his or her behavior. In fact, abusive behavior and violence is a deliberate choice made by the abuser in order to control you.



         The cycle of violence in domestic abuse



Cycle of violence



  • Abuse – Your abusive partner lashes out with aggressive, belittling, or violent behavior. The abuse is a power play designed to show you "who is boss."

  • Guilt – After abusing you, your partner feels guilt, but not over what he's done. He’s more worried about the possibility of being caught and facing consequences for his abusive behavior.

  • Excuses – Your abuser rationalizes what he or she has done. The person may come up with a string of excuses or blame you for the abusive behavior—anything to avoid taking responsibility.

  • "Normal" behavior – The abuser does everything he can to regain control and keep the victim in the relationship. He may act as if nothing has happened, or he may turn on the charm. This peaceful honeymoon phase may give the victim hope that the abuser has really changed this time.

  • Fantasy and planning – Your abuser begins to fantasize about abusing you again. He spends a lot of time thinking about what you’ve done wrong and how he'll make you pay. Then he makes a plan for turning the fantasy of abuse into reality.

  • Set-up – Your abuser sets you up and puts his plan in motion, creating a situation where he can justify abusing you.

THE RACE

Sebastian Vettel has rounded out the 2013 season, taking his ninth victory in succession at the Brazilian Grand Prix.
Vettel was joined on the podium by team mate Mark Webber, who finished his last ever grand prix in second place to record the fourth Red Bull one-two of the season. Fernando Alonso rounded out the top three for Ferrari.
At the start, it was Nico Rosberg who jumped from the second place on the grid into the lead. The Mercedes driver’s lead was short-lived as Vettel easily caught and passed his compatriot at the end of the first lap.
Having been passed by Vettel, Rosberg began falling backwards through the field. First Alonso, then Webber caught and passed the Mercedes, before Rosberg allowed team mate Lewis Hamilton through for fourth.
On lap three, Romain Grosjean’s Renault engine expired, ending the Lotus driver’s race and season and leaving a thick plume of white smoke across the track. Thankfully, the field made it through without any further incident.
Webber was soon on the back of Alonso, passing the Ferrari on lap 13 to make it a Red Bull one-two at the front of the field, with a gap of around ten seconds separating them. But Webber’s efforts were rendered moot at his first pit stop, as the team were slow to replace his left-rear tyre, allowing Alonso to retake second.
The battle between Lewis Hamilton and Felipe Massa for fourth place was brought to a swift conclusion when the Ferrari driver was given a drive-through penalty for crossing the white line at pit entry.
Suddenly, on lap 47, there was drama as Valtteri Bottas and Lewis Hamilton collided in the braking zone of Descida do Lago, ending the Williams driver’s race on the spot and forcing the Mercedes to cruise back to the pit lane on three wheels. Hamilton was later given a drive-through penalty for causing the collision.
Jenson Button took McLaren’s best result of its forgettable season with a superb drive from 14th to fourth. 




 Grosjean´s Lotus Renault engine expired and the car  is leaving a thick plume of white smoke across the track.
