Each year on February 14th, many people exchange cards, candy, gifts or flowers with their special “valentine.” The day of romance we call Valentine’s Day is named for a Christian martyr and dates back to the 5th century, but has origins in the Roman holiday Lupercalia.

A positive mind anticipates happiness, joy, health, and favorable results.
With a positive attitude we experience pleasant feelings, and we visualize the results we want to achieve. Negative thoughts, words and attitude bring up negative and unhappy moods and actions.
Put your heart and soul into everything you do, always.
We wish you a Merry Christmas; We wish you a Merry Christmas; We wish you a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year. Good tidings we bring to you and your kin; Good tidings for Christmas and a Happy New Year.
Oh, bring us a figgy pudding; Oh, bring us a figgy pudding; Oh, bring us a figgy pudding and a cup of good cheer We won't go until we get some; We won't go until we get some; We won't go until we get some, so bring some out here
We wish you a Merry Christmas; We wish you a Merry Christmas; We wish you a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year.

Nelson Mandela was born in 1918. He spent 27 years in prison (from 1962 to 1990) for trying to overthrow the pro-apartheid government. After he left prison, he worked to achievehuman rights and a better future for everyone in South Africa. He became President of South Africa in 1994, and retired in 1999. Nelson Mandela died on 5 December 2013 following a lung illness. OVERTHROW = ACHIEVE = LOGRAR, ALCANZAR Nelson Mandela became famous for his long fight against bad government and racial prejudice. He became a hero to people all over the world. As South Africa's President, he was respected for his courage and wisdom in bringing people together to live in peace. COURAGE = VALOR WISDOM = SABIDURÍA Nelson Mandela is known as "Madiba," which is the name of the Xhosa tribe to which he belonged. It is considered an act of honor to refer to somebody by the name of his tribe.
A South African chain store has laid on one of the most touching tributes to Nelson Mandela we've seen in the past week – and it was in the form of a flash mob.
Woolworths teamed up with the Soweto Gospel Choir, who posed as shoppers and store workers at the Parkview store in Johannesburg.
This song was written during Mandela's incarceration as a call for his freedom.
Asimbonanga [we have not seen him]
Asimbonang' uMandela thina [we have not seen Mandela]
Laph'ekhona [in the place where he is]
Laph'ehleli khona [in the place where he is kept]
Asimbonanga
Asimbonang 'umfowethu thina [we have not seen our brother]
Laph'ekhona [in the place where he is]
Laph'wafela khona [in the place where he died]
Sithi: Hey, wena [We say: hey, you]
Hey, wena nawe [Hey, you and you]
Siyofika nini la' siyakhona [when will we arrive at our destination]

BACH: Who did what with a hammer, chisel and nails, why?
MONDAY, OCTOBER 1, 2012
Jorge Piedra, 2º BACH B: Dashrath Manjhi built a passage on a hill, to reduce the distance from his village to the nearest town 75km because his wife died due to the fact that there wasn't any hospital in their village. Steffi Lomba Vrouenraets, 2º BACH A:
This is the story about Dashrath Majhi.
Dashrath Majhi was married with a woman who got ill and died. She died because she couldn´t go to the doctor. The nearest town with a doctor was 70 Km away and it was very difficult to go there because there was a hill between his village(Bihar,India) and his town.
So, Dashrath,frustrated,began to cut the mountain with a hammer,chisel and nails,working every day for 22 years. He decided to make a road cutting the hill to prevent more deaths in his village.
