Project Work – 10th C

Thumbs up for football Barça vs Bayern, an epic game!

- Since 1802

Last Wednesday, a lot of people weren´t expecting to experience the end of an era. Barça was humiliated by Bayern München in their own stadium, Camp Nou. The final result was 0-3 because Bayern has dominated the game. Bayern opened hostilities at 48’ minutes with the goal scored by Robben, an amazing goal! Then, Barcelona lost temper which led to a goal by Pique into his own net (72’ minute). The last goal (77’minutes) was scored by Müller, a great heading goal! Barça was eliminated from Champions League. Nobody was expecting this huge result. The team of the decade was hit by a great opponent whose aim has always been to win. Marco Selas & Paulo Ferro


Person of the year: The anonymous citizen

It wasn’t easy for us to decide who would be person of the year but after days of discussion, cups of coffee and a few scratches we finally came to a conclusion: NEWS 4 YOU person of the year is the anonymous citizen, it can be you, it can be me. The fact is that anyone with a mobile phone or a digital camera can have an important role in today’s world, he/she can even influence the course of events. We see that every day on television, on the internet, even On newspapers and magazines. If we think about what has recently happened in Boston, you can see how important this

anonymous citizen was. He took pictures both of the suspects and the victims, consequently, he contributed for a better perspective of what had happened, helped the authorities to find the guilty ones and helped the mass media to do their work. We had already seen this in other occasions, for example when there is an accident or a natural

disaster. There is always someone with a camera ready to capture the event and share it with the world. There is only one risk: to be watching doesn’t mean to become a paparazzo. Privacy is still important and so, no one wants to see a picture of him/herself in an intimate situation.

There is always a line. Stay on the side of what is true and essential.

Review of the film Magic Mike Magic Mike is a comedy-drama film which was released on June 29th in 2012. The main character is Magic Mike (Channing Tatum), who is a male stripper, there are others mates at Xquisite Strip Club like Adam (Alex Pettyfer) and Ken (Matt Bomer). The plot is about the lifestyle of this group of friends, and Magic Mike’s love story with Brooke (Cody Horn). Although Mike works as a stripper he has big plans. The club is owned by Dallas (Matthew McConaughey), who dreams about creating an "empire" of strip clubs. Mike soon meets nineteen-year-old Adam who has recently been fired. Mike takes Adam under his wing and encourages him to begin stripping at Xquisite. Then, Mike is introduced to Adam's sister Brooke and, despite his on-and-off relationship with a woman named Joanna (Olivia Munn), he falls in love with Brooke and promises to look after Adam. Adam falls further into the excessive lifestyle of the Xquisite dancers, using drugs and having sexual encounters with many clients. When Dallas tells them about his plans of moving their act to Miami, Mike talks to his girlfriend and confides her that he is tired of that lifestyle and wants to get a small furniture business. However, the bank declines his loan application and Mike realizes that he has to stay in the business to keep on paying his bills. Adam begins using drugs regularly. A few days later, Mike and Adam perform for a private party and they get in trouble for leaving a package of drugs, worth $10,000. When the show at the club is over, Mike and Adam take drugs and go to another club. The next morning, Brooke finds Adam on the floor and gets really angry with him, blaming Mike for failing to protect her brother (as he had promised). She breaks up with Mike. Later on, Mike ends up paying Adam's debt. Mike decides he's had enough and leaves the club driving away to end up at Brooke's flat, where he tells her he is through with stripping. After realizing Magic Mike isn't coming back, Dallas invites Adam to replace Mike as the front man of the dancers. Then Adam calls his sister to tell her that Mike had paid off the drug dealers for him. Brooke feels touched , talks to Mike, they forgive each other and decide to begin a relationship. In our opinion, although the ending is a little disappointing, since Adam is stuck in the business, it’s a great film because it’s funny. That’s why we totally recommend it. Ana Sofia & Tatiana


WHAT?!?! Tattoo mania or style, we tried to understand what’s going on…The majority of teens want to make a tattoo. This is because they have a special reason to do one or just because they find tattoos beautiful. Girls like butterflies and hearts. Boys prefer skulls and flames. But the problem is the addiction they cause. Let’s take an example: the famous UK band One Direction… It all started with one tattoo just for fun and now: Harry Styles has 42 or 43 tattoos, Zayn Malik has 37, Louis Tomlinson has 8, Liam Payne has 3 …Some fans, the famous directioners, are really worried about it. They wonder: “is this just for fun or did it become an obsession?” They must know that some diseases, such as skin cancer, are caused by tattoos ink…Our advice is that they should pay attention to what they are doing before it’s too late…
