Have you ever thought about the effects that the red tide has in our planet? If you have not, then here are
them for you.
By: Daniela Vicencio

A Group of sea Experts paid their attention in the study of the red tide for knowing its ef-
fects in the Human organism.

What is red tide?

Red tide, how commonly are known the flowers of microscopic seaweeds, is the
increase of little seaweeds that sometimes can provoke changes in the color of
water.

In our country exist this kind of seaweeds but, that are highly poisonous and this
has not a known antidote. The human poisoning happens through consumption of
sea products; the poison attacks to the nervous system, so exist serious risk to die if
the medical attention is not opportune.

That’s all, thanks to Daniela for her article about red tide!

Do you believe in ghosts? Well, now one of our readers will tell us about them, what they are and another
interesting, supernatural information about these entities.
By :Michael Contreras

For thousands of years, people have been wondering if ghosts are real or not, or if there is something else after death,
and even about the purposes that ghosts have for staying in this world…Anyway, for all of you that have heard the
term ‘ghost’ there is some information that I would like to clarify, including of course, as many details as possible about
them.
First of all, ghosts are believed to be more than dead people, because if they were just that, there would be no topic to
talk about. Being in another dimension does not make you a ghost, what makes you become one of them is to come
back to the world of living and let your presence be known for them. Ghosts often send us some signs of their
presence, for example, they can move an object, provide a fleeting glance, come to us in our dreams, and whisper to us
even though we are not able to see them. They are souls that have something to show, do or say to us.
What is so important for them that they cannot rest even when they are in the afterlife? I think there are many
reasons. For some people, it is about unfinished business. For others, it is pure love. They simply do not want to let go
that person or that thing that they loved when they were alive, or maybe they have an important message to
communicate. There is no doubt that there is something strong inside them that makes them want to come back to
this kingdom. I think that the same applies to the living as well. Why do we, as living, adhere to thoughts of those who
have passed away, even to those that are still living? I am sure it is for many of the same reasons that ghosts do. Just
because we leave this dimension does not mean we stop being human in our thoughts and desires. What we are here
is what we take with us. The same love, fear, and desires do not finish when we do…
Demons and Angels

There are many kinds of ghosts, and this is something interesting that we have to talk about too, because If we adhere
to theory, ghosts are deceased humans that come back in order to communicate something important, while demons
and angels are not of earthly origin. Both are known to have stronger powers than an average ghost. You will find, for
example, a demon more capable to move objects and possess the human body, just as you will find an angel more
experienced inspiring and eager to help the suffering human condition than a ghost.
At this point, you maybe are wondering why a demon would be stronger than a ghost, or deceased human. Depending
on our viewpoint, we can understand why angels, that are blessed with powers from higher dimensions are stronger
than deceased humans, but why a demon? In fact, why this kind of entity if we are of the same cosmic fabric? The
answer maybe lies in the word ‘Experience’ and by saying this, I mean that they have been in that territory for so much
longer. When we cross over, it is relatively new territory for many souls. For demons and angels, that is their long
explored habitat and home. The demon is cunning and the angel enlightened. As an example, you can think of these
entities as a good or bad adult (Angel or Demon) dealing with an inexpert child (ghost).
They have the experience that we lack, and are full of tricks (demons), or miracles (angels) of which either inspire or
frighten us. Ị also think that miracles and tricks are intrinsic in us too, but they are more commonly accessible and
producible by these beings because this is what they have been doing for many life-times.
Our abilities and faults are just a microcosm of theirs; we are just students, while they are the teachers that try to
catch our attention…

Thanks To Michael for his interesting article!

Everytime that she did it,
All were in agreement,
In how weird was the blond girl's sneeze!

There was a nice teacher of English,
And I was her student some time,
When I called her 'Miss Carmen'
She told me 'Firefighter'
And we always started to laugh!
----------------------------------------
There was a cute girl with a humor,
That was changing and weird like a rumor!
Everytime she was angry,
'Let's see' was her warning,
which calmed down the cute girl with bad humor!
----------------------------------------
There was a nice girl in a class,
That appeared to be always angry,
When I told her 'You are grumpy'
She said 'Not a harpy'
That amazing nice girl of my class...

There was a small man that in Chile,
Had a conduct that was always greedy,
Every time he saw food,
He started to chew,
Which disgusted the people in Chile!
—————————————-
There was a fat man used to bother,
And repeat the whole day 'Hello brother',
If you committed a mistake,
He gave you a headache,
Which delighted the fat man used to bother!

There was a tall man with a beard,
That was as long and black as his hair,
He did not like the meat,
and at times could not see,
For his face that was full with his hair!
----------------------------------------
There was a nice girl in whose heart,
Love was always an important part,
If she saw any guy,
Was all day in her eye,
Which brought joy to her passionate heart!
----------------------------------------
There was a strong man with a skill,
To produce a huge burp that might kill,
Could be heard by all town,
Or a building break down,
Which scared the people around!

Whose face was like as a saucepan
He asked an asked for a dog,
But he could not see in the fog,
That poor man with weird face of Japan…

There was an old lady with a hat,
who said ' I love all the cats',
She sings and jumps every day,
When her sister dance a ballet,
The poor crazy woman with the hats as a cat...

Who only wanted to pass the exam,
She plays and sings everywhere,
As a kid without underwear,
That crazy student with the eyeglass...

Online games are popular in the world, and of course, in our lives, they have so many users around the
world, that every year we can see more and more of these games on the internet. Our reader, Salvador
Contreras, wanted to write about the most popular one, World of Warcraft (WoW)

The Fantastic MMORPG. World.

By: Salvador Contreras

For a long time people have played videogames during their childhood, perhaps they could never
imagine that nowadays, technology is so advanced that allows you to play with another person in real
time.

These are called massive online games, more known as MMORPG; in this case players assume a role of a
particular character in a fantasy world and can take control of that character’s action. These kinds of
games have become one of the most popular games around the world because they allow to play with a
real person who actually lives in another country, but in the virtual world they are close each other.
One of the most popular MMORPG game is World of Warcraft more known as ‘WoW’, is a videogame
developed by Blizzard Entertainment Company. This is the fourth game established in the fantastic
universe of Warcraft that was for the first time introduced by ‘Warcraft: Orcs and Humans’ in 1994.
In this game you are located in the fantastic kingdom of Azeroth. With more than 11 million monthly
subscriptions whose virtual players can choose play character either the horde or the alliance, after that
you can choose four different races for example human, elf, and so on.
Second you have to decide what kind of character you want to be, a warlock, priest, rogue, paladin and so
on. Sounds interesting, doesn't it? Each one with different skills that you can discover when you increase
your level, and play with other fighting with monsters of different levels and strength, some of them with
diabolic skills.

Third, WoW is essentially endless. In spite of the fact that the game has a final level, the experience does
not end once you have completed it. There are other important challenges and strategies that you can
learn. The game’s developers are often updating the game and adding new material and important
content related with some quest and battles which you can win points of honor. This ensures that its
world is changing and expanding every moment. The constant stream of new players also keeps the game
community varied, as there are always new characters to meet.
Finally, World of Warcraft is a fantastic game and it is easy to play and learn the different
abilities.
Go for it! And enjoy playing with people of this entire amazing virtual world.
For The Alliance!!!!
