100 word reflection

1.4 If you were a doctor developing the technology to clone humans, how would you answer the following questions?

a Where would you conduct your cloning of humans?

b What kinds of people would you clone?

c What is more important: cloning the first human ever, or creating a healthy cloned child?

d Would you want the world to know about your experiments, or would you want to keep them a secret?

Since we don't know what will happen when cloning a human, we should get some information about it, and how clones react, then see how it improves onwards. In terms on who I would clone then that would pretty much resemble who would want to be cloned, you can  always get test subjects for what you want.

I don't really know what's better to be honest. But I think if creating a healthy cloned child can be more secure then that can give us information on how to clone a human adult correctly. I would give out the information obtained.

TKR Test Fix

27, January 1975.
 Dear Diary:

Today was a splendid day, my son finally proved me wrong and demonstrated not only to me, but to all Kabul what he's capable of.
Finally, the day came, and the Kite tournament was about to begin, people were getting ready and there were OVER A HUNDRED KITES! It was beautiful, I was already feeling my son was one of the good ones in the Cattle. We, and by we I mean Rahim Kahn and myself, talked about our predictions and came to the conclusion that Amir was going to get easily into the top 20. The tournament started and and after a few minutes, many kites were already on the ground, I was continuosly following Amir's, impressed by the way he controlled his kite, it was as if he could feel it like another part of his body, at that moment I had a strong feeling he was going to win and the term "Kite Master" came into my mind. The moment finally came and Amir had cut the last kite, I was (and am) so proud of him! He's shown and proven how good he can be. I saw Hassan running the last kite while Amir kept staring at me, I caught this glance as an "I hope I did fine"; for some strange reason I didn't see Hassan until several hours later but I believe Amir took good care.

In the end I truly see my son different now, it is like a different feeling, a feeling of worthiness and proudness combined, something I'll never forgive.

New Zealand Geography

New Zealand Culture

Culture from New Zealand is very different from the one we present, except for one impressive thing, the Maoris and the Easter Island people. The Maoris present really similar dances and language compared to the Easter's, in fact, 75% of the language is actually the same (according to host family). Leaving those aside, the New Zealand culture is very respectful for everything, You can't see any graffitis on the streets, everyone, and even the lower class people have good education. In other words, it is a cleaner place. As another fact, this culture was inherited from the British Culture in many aspects such as language. One of their national anthems is the Great Britain's "God Save The Queen" (they have two different national anthems of equal status, being the other one "God Defend New Zealand"), other small cultural aspects, and even left-handed driving (as my family calls it). In terms of sports Rugby is the most played sport along with Cricket. The New Zealand Maori dance, called Haka, is a visual representation of how the Maori's prepared for fights, it is nowadays performed in several events and most recognized from, rugby matches played by their national team, the All Blacks.

What is it like to be a New Zealander?

Being a new zealander doesn't differ much from a Chilean's life, this is a broad topic but I'll center it on a student's life. I've come across some differences during this 3 weeks but mainly lived the same way as always. During the week in order to get to school I need an hour to get ready, which is basically the same. What changes is how I get to school though, in New Zealand mostly every student catches the school bus in order to get to school, school starts at 8:30. Once in school, each student has their own schedule, so they are able to have classes with higher grades by just asking. Throughout the day people move through normal classes, taught just the same way as in Chile, until they go home (time depends on the school you are in). New Zealanders like to do outdoor and indoor activities such as going to the cinema or playing Rugby. Teenagers mostly play Rugby in New Zealand, being the most popular sport followed by Cricket, a sport that's similar to baseball. Even though other sports such as football or tennis aren't very popular, they are stilled played but by less people.

Alleviating Poverty (Fairtrade)

Many people nowadays don't know about the existance of Fairtrade, which is something important to know about as a way to alleviate poverty. Fairtrade is a Non Governmental Organization that helps people with less resources and a good business oportunity.
In other words, Fairtrade looks for people with something they could generate a lot money with, but don't have the resources to do so, then they help them by exporting it. For example, they've approachen people in africa who have big farms, in order to help them get their business working along the globe. This is in my opinion a very good idea, since it isn't just giving them money, but helping them get what they deserve, and getting more people jobs, therefor opportunities. Fairtrade offers a quite variety of products so far, such as gold, most vegetables, honey, and others. In order to know if a product comes from this NGO, you can check if it has the Fairtrade logo in it, if it does, you're directly contributing to people with less resources.
Concluding, the Fairtrade NGO is a very good approach to get your business going if you want to internationalize your products, the only thing you are required is high quality, other than that, it benefits you in many ways, in my opinion FairTrade is something that should be more well-known, so that people buy more of its products to help them.
