OBJETIVOS


El haber llevado a cabo la tarea de relizar un blog, fué al inicio difícil para mi, por diversas razones, y finalmente como todo lo que se realiza constantemente llega al punto en el que el supuesto es realizado sin considerarlo tedioso puedo darme el lujo de valorarlo completo... haha

Claro que le he dedicado tiempo al estar actualizando mis entradas y añadiendo imágenes, aunque me hubiera gustado agregarle otros caracteres como videoclips o simplemente mùsica, desgraciadamente desconozco la forma de hacerlo. También estoy consciente de los errores en mis entries y espero que mi simple blog cumpla los objetivos propuestos por el titular de la materia Juan Enrique Cabrales ahora me encuentro escribiendo la ultima entrada del blog que comprende al sexto semestre, al realizar el cierre me lleno de alegria, la cual se desborda por todo mi blog.

El haber contribuìdo al equipo de puntuales que forman el blog http://fifthelement2008.blogspot.com/ no me enorgullece tanto pero.... se que el trabajo que he realizado me es de gran ayuda como el profesor nos mencionò en diversas ocasiones....

Finalmente me despido y nos veremos por aquì de nuevo, ¿no es asì?












Correction Of KIND OF MUSEUMS.....


Museums are special places where people can collect and display fragments of their past, their dreams, and their perceptions of life.

You can find museums in different topics such as art, history, natural history, natural history, science and technology.

Museums may focus on a single topic like medicine, music or transportation; on a place or period of history or an special audience like children. Zoos, Aquariums, Arboreta, Botanic Gardens and planetariums are also special kinds of museums.

Technology museums are very interesting for me. There you can find useful instruments that help you to make your life easier. Another objective of this kind of museums is to understand the importance of technology in order to improve our lives.

Science museums are difficult to find in Third World countries, such as Mexico. A science museums uses the computer not as a video terminal, through which you see abjects of art, but as a screen of operations, an interface, which enables you to enter into a process of manipulation and transformation of images, texts and sounds.

Eye Color


Eye color is a polygenic trait and is determined by the amount and type of pigments in the eye's iris. Humans and animals have many phenotypic variations in eye color. In human eyes, these variations in color are attributed to varying ratios of eumelanin produced by melanocytes in the iris. The brightly colored eyes of many bird species are largely determined by other pigments, such as pteridines, purines, and carotenoids.
Three main elements within the iris contribute to its color: the melanin content of the iris pigment epithelium, the melanin content within the iris stroma, and the cellular density of the iris stroma.


Eye colors can range from the most common color, brown, to the least common, gray. Rare genetic specialties can even lead to unusual eye colors: black, red, and violet. Eye color is an inherited trait influenced by more than one gene, these genes are being sought using associations to small changes in the genes themselves and in neighboring genes.


The actual number of genes that contribute to eye color is unknown at present, but there are a few likely candidates. Iris color can provide a large amount of information about an individual and a classification of various colors may be useful in documenting pathological changes or determining how a person may respond to various ocular pharmaceuticals.


There are 3 true colors in the eyes that determine the outward appearance, brown, yellow and blue. How much of each color one has determines the appearance of our eyes color. The color of the eyes in turn depends on how much of these colors are present. For example, green eyes have yellow and some blue, making them appear green. Brown eyes appear brown because most of the eye contains the brown color.

Something About Cold Play


Coldplay are a British alternative rock band formed in London, England in 1998. The group contains vocalist, pianist and guitarist Chris Martin, lead guitarist Jonny Buckland, bassist Guy Berryman, and drummer/multi-instrumentalist Will Champion.


Coldplay have sold 40 million albums, and are also known for their hit singles, such as "Yellow", "The Scientist", "Speed of Sound", "Fix You", "Viva la Vida" and the Grammy Award-winning "Clocks".


Coldplay achieved worldwide fame with the release of their single "Yellow", followed by their debut album, Parachutes, which was nominated for the Mercury Prize. Its follow-up, A Rush of Blood to the Head , won multiple awards. The band's fourth studio album, Viva la Vida or Death and All His Friends, was produced by Brian Eno and released again to largely favourable reviews. All of Coldplay's albums have enjoyed commercial success.


Coldplay's early material was compared to acts such as Radiohead, Jeff Buckley, U2, and Travis. Since the release of Parachutes, Coldplay have drawn influence from other sources. Coldplay have been an active supporter of various social and political causes. The group have also performed at various charity projects such as Band Aid 20, Live 8, and the Teenage Cance Trust

COLOR GREEN

Green is a color, the perception of which is evoked by light having a spectrum dominated by energy. In the subtractive color system, it is not a primary color, but is created out of a mixture of yellow and blue, it is considered one of the additive primary colors. The complement of green is magenta; that is, a purple color corresponding to an equal mixture of red and blue light. On a color wheel based on traditional color theory, the complementary color to green is considered to be red.

The word green is closely related to the Old English verb growan, “to grow”. It is used to describe plants or the ocean. Sometimes it can also describe someone who is inexperienced, jealous, or sick. In America, green is a slang term for money, among other things. Several colloquialisms have derived from these meanings, such as “green around the gills”, a phrase used to describe a person who looks ill.

Several minerals have a green color, including the emerald. Animals such as frogs, lizards, and other reptiles and amphibians, fish, insects, and birds, appear green because of a mixture of layers of blue and green coloring on their skin. By far the largest contributor to green in nature is chlorophyll, the chemical by which plants photosynthesize. Many creatures have adapted to their green environments by taking on a green color themselves as camouflage.

Culturally, green has broad and sometimes contradictory meanings. In some cultures, green symbolizes hope and growth, while in others, it is associated with death, sickness, envy or the devil. The most common associations, however, are found in its nature.

Green is also associated with regeneration, fertility and rebirth for its connections to nature. Recent political groups have taken on the color as symbol of environmental protection and social justice, and consider themselves part of the Green movement, some naming themselves Green parties.

Classification essay (homework)


Museums are special places where people can collect and display fragments of their past, their dreams, and their perceptions of life.

There are many kinds of museums such as art, history, natural history; science and technology are the most familiar.

Museums may focus on a single topic like medicine, music or transportation; on a place or period of history or on a special audience like children. Zoos, aquariums, arboreta, botanic gardens and planetariums are also special kinds of museums.

*A technology museums are very interesting for me, there you can found useful instruments that helps you to make your life easier and another objective of that is to understand the importance of technology in order to use new equipment.

*a science museum are difficult to found, some people used to call a museum like third kind It uses the computer not as a video terminal, through which you view objects of art, a kind of digital carousal projector, but as a screen of operations, an interface, which enables you to enter into a process of manipulation and transformation of images, texts and sound.

· Note: This essay should be written in pairs as Teacher Cabrales says, but there is something wrong here. The problem is that I couldn’t found a classmate to compare my opinion about art. I’m so sorry….. and that’s the reason because of I wrote the essay individually
