Pieces - Sum 41

I would like to share with you a song called Pieces, from the Canadian band, Sum 41. The band's members are: Deryck Whibley, Jason McCaslin, Steve Jocz and Tom Thacker. The band is called Sum 41 because it was created 41 days after the beginning ot the summer.

My favourite part of the song is:

This place is so empty
My thoughts are so tempting
I don’t know how it got so bad
Sometimes it’s so crazy that nothing could save me
But it’s the only thing that I have

If you believe it’s in my soul
I’d say all the words that I know
Just to see if it would show
That I'm trying to let you know
That I’m better off on my own

I tried to be perfect
It just wasn’t worth it
Nothing could ever be so wrong
It’s hard to believe me
It never gets easy
I guess I knew that all along

If you believe it’s in my soul
I’d say all the words that I know
Just to see if it would show
That I'm trying to let you know
That I’m better off on my own





I discovered this band not a long ago, one friend of mine sent a video of them to me and I really liked their music. I' ve been listening to Sum 41 since that moment. Another song that I love is With me.
I hope you like it! :)

Vaccines

What's a vaccine?
A vaccine is suspension of dead or weakened micro-organisms which is introduced in our bodies to produce antibodies against the infectious agent. So that when this micro-organism is inside your body you have defences against it and you will not suffer the disease.

The first vaccine.
In 1796 a British doctor, Edward Jenner (1749-1823), discovered the first vaccine which was against the human smallpox. His experiment consisted of introducing the virus of a cow in a 8 year-old child and some weeks later Jenner introduced the human virus to the same child but he didn't suffer the disease.

Types of vaccines.
- Vaccines of weakened micro-organisms: They produce a sub-clinical way of the disease like for example the vaccines against the smallpox or the hepatitis.
- Vaccines of dead micro-organisms: They also produce antibodies to defend our organism from the future infection. For example: the flu and the typhus vaccines.
- Vaccines of toxins produced by infectious agents: The immunization is produced by the weakened toxins because our organism produces antibodies against them.
- Vaccines obtained by genetic engineering: Using the recombinant DNA technology, it is possible to produce vaccines in bacterium cultures genetically modified.

Influenza vaccine.
Flu is an infection that each winter affects to 10-20% of the population, and in some cases it can be lethal. There is a vaccine against flu and it is usually supplied to people who are more likely to suffer the infection. The groups of people that are in risk are:
- Health workers.
- People with respiratory illness.
- Heart patients, people with renal diseases or diabetics.
- Old people.
- People who receive treatments with immunosuppressives.

My interview to Piqué

A few days ago the Spanish football team played in my city and I had the opportunity to interview my favourite football player: Piqué.
Of course, the first question I asked him was about his new girlfriend, Shakira. I wanted to know how they had met and when.
He answered that the first time he had seen her was at the end of one of his matches and she has said to him that he had played very well. They had started to go out together then and two months later he had asked her out.
As I had not much time to ask him questions I could only ask him one more question and it was if he thought they were going to be the winners of the Champions League and he had no doubts about it, he was really sure of that because they were a great team and all of the players were in their best moment, they played very well all together and they got on very well too.
