Sad News

Last friday, our handball coach gave us a very bad news. He explaned that for work, he was forced to leave the club because he was going to live in Badajoz.  

This news has shocked the whole team. He already told me that he would go but it was not entirely sure and did not know when it would be. 

This coach has been the best I've had in my time as a player. He is a very demanding and tough person, but he does so in order to improve our performance. 

It was he who made us Champions of Catalan League of Handball two consecutive years.

This year, due to the multitude of players who have left the team, he did not expect these results,with young players, from an average of 18 years, winning all matches in the competition.

In conclusion, give him thanks for everything.

I hope to see him soon.

Jews, Muslims face increasing French discrimination, racism – Council of Europe- Human Rights News

SUMMARY

This news talks about France, a  country that discriminates  minority groups such as now the Gypsies, Muslims and Jews.
In France, Jewish and Muslims cemeteries are destroyed. For this reason, the  French President Francois Hollande  says that in this country is increasing a lot racism, and the nation will be destroyed because of this. 
Also note that there are other factors that trigger acts of discrimination in France, for example sexual orientation of an individual.

OPINION

This news makes reference to one of the most common problems that we find in the world, the discrimination, which is a human right that may not be violated.
Therefore,  belongs to the Human Right number 2, which says that everyone has the right and freedoms, without any kind of distiction ,like color, sex, language, religion ..

And I agree with this, because everybody should have equal rights and live in equality, after all we are all equal.

Biggest fall in April jobless for two decades

SUMMARY 

In April, Spain suffered the biggest drop in the number of people who are unemployed in the last 20 years.
The only sectors that offer jobs are industrialists, but they always looking for qualified personnel. And a lot of  people who are unemployed now, wait until summer to find work in hotels or restaurants, to get some money.

The percentage of unemployed is 23.78, which means that approximately a quarter part  of the population does not work.

OPINION

I think that unemployment is a serious social problem, since people acquire goods and services to meet their needs from the money they receive for their work... and if they do not have this money, they cannot meet these needs. 

A lot of people, when they lose their jobs , feel frustrated and failed to see that they cannot support their family.

For this reason, I hope that this country's economic situation will improve soon.

Nepal earthquake: UK agencies warn of serious disease after disaster

SUMMARY 

The earthquake that occurred in Nepal, was 7.8 degrees of magnitude,  7,500 people have died and 14,500 people are injured.
Because of this catastrophe, many people have been left homeless.
Contaminated water and poor sanitation could lead to cholera, dysentery and other waterborne diseases.
For this reason, the DEC agencies have organized shelters and have provided them with clean water, soap, blankets and mattresses.
Currently, most countries of the world are helping Nepal.

OPINION

Natural disasters are inevitable. In my opinion I think that the country has been  morally and economically destroyed. Now they have to invest a lot of money to get reform.
People don't know where live and for this reason  in the world there have been several campaigns of donation of money.
This, I consider it a good fact  because we are showing that cooperation between countries exists.
