NEWS: The mother who drank 24 cans of Red Bull a DAY - but cured her addiction with hypnosis

Ms Weatherill lives with boyfriend Phil Evans, 27, and four children aged between three and 14. He started drinking Redbull 2005 while studying, but in 2009 he noticed that I was completely hooked on this drink. I could not take anything without it. In 2010 it took 24 cans a day to care for their four children and stay awake at night to study to finish the race.

Eventually I could not do anything without this drink before drinking. He was wrong, had palmitacions, was depressive. Was taking half the lethal dose of caffeine. She finally decided to do something about the problem after she realised the constant need for the Red Bull was severely damaging her health.

But, incredibly, she claims she was completely cured of her addiction after a single session of 50 minuts with cognitive behavioral hypnotherapist David Kilmurry on April 11.

I think this drink is dangerous because produce a lot of addiction and also theirs components are entirely artificials and very harmful to the health. Some Europeans countries have banned this drink.

She was lucky, because any person could have died. People must understand that these drinks are like a drug and the health department should review and ban these types of drinks.

Sarah Weatherill, 31, was so addicted to Red Bull she drank 24 cans a day leaving her lethargic, depressed, suffering heart palpitations and constantly anxious

Advantages and disadvantages of being famous

Today a lot of people want to be famous because they have everything they want: a lot of money, cars, mansions, etc. The big majority comes from TV and magazines... But that doesn't mean they be happy.

On the one hand, being famous it is great because they have resolved your life. There are differents kinds of celebrities, there are people to live very well, they have a lot of money almost without to work, but there are also celebrities that have studied and have achieved everything by themselves.

On the other hand, being famous is also bad, since at all times follow you the paparazzis and at the end so much money also cause problems. A lot of celebrities are hooked on drugs or alcohol. Moreover, many of them do a lot off cosmetic surgery and are deformed.

In conclusion, I wouldn't like being famous because I don't like to be controlled all day, and can not to do anything without that all the people are informed.



NEWS: Microsoft to stop producing Windows versions

Jerry Nixon, a Microsoft development executive, said in a conference speech that Windows 10 is the last major revision of the operating system. There will be a Windows 11. He says that this is a positive step, but it does have some risks, now Microsoft will have to work hard.

They will not stop working, on the contrary; now they have a great challenge and a lot of work. He said that Windows is not paralyzed and will move forward again.

To date were forced to offer new updates and technologically speaking it's good not because it is better to change and follow other ways to create innovative technology.From now on Windows will be delivered as a service bringing new innovations.

I think commercials are technical and that the company is very smart and efficient and everything they do to make more money.

Surely from now to continue using Windows 10 you have to pay a subscription. I think this news is a business strategy.

I will live with two friends in an apartment in Girona. The university is also very expensive and I want to help my parents.

But now my priority is study a lot for approve all the exams and get a good mark of the selectivity exams, to enter in the degree that I want.


NEWS: Japan: Zoo sorry for naming monkey after new princess

The Takasakiyama Zoo, in southern Japan, put the name of Charlotte to the first female macaque monkey of the year. They put this name as a tribute to the princess of the British royal family. It is a tradition to put a name to the first newborn macaque monkey each year. And it is through a public vote.

This caused many complaints to a lot of people that they considered disrespectful to the British royal family. So the zoo has apologized on its website and they still thinking of renaming the monkey.
I think it is a beautiful tradition and anyone must not break this tradition. It is a popular vote therefore, in my opinion; the zoo must not rename the monkey, because the majority has decided in this way.
I do not think that it is disrespectful, quite the opposite. I think the people are very much exaggerated and the zoo can not to do attention to these people.

NEWS: Burnt-out passenger ferry to be towed to Valencia port

The ferry called Sorrento caught fire 20 miles from Mallorca with 156 people on board between passengers and crew. On April 28 the evacuation was a success. The captain gave the order to evacuate the ferry on lifeboats, but now the more worrying is that the ferry carried 740 tons of fuel that can represent an ecological disaster.

Now the Sorrento is it around 100 nautical miles from the coast of ValenciaThe operation to transport it to port will be very risky because is necessary to try that the fuel does not leak into the sea. The Public Works Minister Ana Pastor had said that the government’s priority was to ensure that the ferry will not contaminate the Mediterranean coast.

I think that is a very important issue because in recent years in different parts of Spain, particularly in Galicia and the Canary Islands have passed similar acts that they are a very big ecological disaster.

If the fuel is spilled at the sea, apart of the destruction of the plants and animals of the sea represents an economic injury because the tourism in this affected area is very much damaged. The governments must do the necessary to find solutions to these accidents.



NEWS: Paws for thought over cryptic photo

The cat that goes stairs up or down depends on how you look.

After the photo of the dress that looked blue and black to some and white and gold the others, now a new picture has divided the opinions in internet.

The experts in animal morphology say that the body and the paws of the cat marks he goes up but if you look the construction of the stairs it can see very clearly that the cat goes down the stairs, well that's what the builders say.

First I would say that the first time I saw the picture I thought the cat climbed the stairs but after to read the news I changed my opinion and now if I set the eyes on the base of the ladder, I see that the cat downstairs.

I think that this news is very funny and the networks make everyone give their opinion on a subject so simple.

The main players are Vin Diesel, Paul Walker, Michelle Rodriguez, Jordana Brewster, Tyrese Gibson, Chris Bridges, Dwayne Johnson, Lucas Black and Jason Statham.

At the end of the film, they do a homage very exciting dedicated to Paul Walker.

Human rights questions

1. What are human rights?
The human rights are moral principles that describe certain standards of human behaviour, and are regularly protected aslegal rights in national and international law.

2. When and why were they created?
Human tights were created in 1948, because after spending the war, there was much poverty and many misfortunes and horrors that suffered all people, and because of this they created human rights.

3. How many human rights are there?
There are thirty human rights.

4. Which human right were you not familiar with?
I didn't know of the existence of this human right: Asylum and rest & relaxation.

Make a list of new words you hear, if any. Think of an example where this human right is respected and where it is violated.
I chose the human right of worker's rights because I think that is very important that all of people have a good job with a living wage. This human right is very important because there every countries that don't comply this right, for example in  Africa or in countries in South America.

NEWS: Motorway thieves steal French jewls

An armed gang of thieves seized 9m. € in jewels in FranceA group of 15 hooded thieves seized the vehicles on the A6 motorway at Avallon at 220 Km near of Paris with some form of gas and later the lorries were found abandoned burned and complete emptyThe lorries had been carrying diamonds, others jewels and works. Now the police have been searching in the region and the neighbouring areas.

This isn’t the only theft in the recent years. Some of the most important have been, for example, the year before, when a gang of thieves wearing women’s clothing and wigs stolen a lot of jewels on a Harry Winston store in ParisAnd this year in the Cannes film festival were two separate robberies, including the theft of a necklace of 1,9m.€.


I think the crisis and unemployment do that every day there are more robberies, but I think that these types of thefts are expert people and the big majority comes from organized armed groups. The only thing you can do to combat this problem is to put more and more security and alarms.


In my opinion this Thieves are experts and trained to steal and they have very specialized equipment.

NEWS: All aboard! Hulk the world's biggest pit bull

The dog Hulk with only 17 months old with a weighing of twelve and a half stone (175 lbs), he is believed to be the world's largest pit bull. He is almost three times bigger than a normal Pit Bull Terrier.

The owners: Marlon and Lisa Grennan, from New Hampshire, say that your dog is very big and tall but he is very gentle like a nanny dogs. Each day he eats 4lbs of ground beef.

And while he admits his dogs are trained for aggression and power, he says the criticism is usually from people who live in safer environments with no need for protection. And why should somebody else live in fear if they don’t have to.


It is true that the called dangerous breeds of dogs have very bad reputation and it requires attention to their education but I think the problem is not with the dogs. Normally the problems are with the owners.

Usually these dogs if they are healthy they aren’t dangerous for reason of the dog breed. These dogs are more corpulent, they have more strength and a lot of strength but that does not mean they are dangerous.

This case is doubly complicated because this dog is of a dangerous breed but also has a extraordinary dimensions, but he is very good for the family and to the children, so it shows that the stereotypes are not always true.
