INDONESIA TSUNAMI: DEATH TOLL RISES TO NEARLY 1,350

THE 7.5-MAGNITUDE QUAKE STRUCK JUST OFF THE CENTRAL ISLAND OF SULAWESI, SETTING OFF A TSUNAMI THAT ENGULFED THE COASTAL CITY OF PALU.

AS TENSIONS AND NEED RUN HIGH, POLICE HAVE BEGUN GUARDING SHOPS AGAINST LOOTERS.

THE BBC'S JONATHAN HEAD IN PALU SAW POLICE FIRING WARNING SHOTS AND TEAR GAS ON TUESDAY AS PEOPLE TRIED TO TAKE SUPPLIES FROM ONE SHOP.

"AFTER DAY TWO THE FOOD SUPPLY STARTED TO COME IN, IT ONLY NEEDED TO BE DISTRIBUTED," HE SAID. "WE ARE NOW RE-ENFORCING THE LAW."

§   A TOWN SMASHED TO PULP IN MINUTES

§   AERIAL SHOTS OF DEBRIS AND SURVIVAL AFTER TSUNAMI

HUMANITARIAN RELIEF CONVOYS ENTERING THE CITY ARE ALSO BEING ESCORTED BY SOLDIERS AND POLICE.

IN A SEPARATE INCIDENT, A VOLCANO BEGAN ERUPTING ON THE SAME ISLAND, SULAWESI, ON WEDNESDAY.

MOUNT SOPUTAN IS ABOUT 1,000KM (600 MILES) AWAY FROM PALU, AND IT WAS NOT IMMEDIATELY SEEN AS A THREAT TO THE AID OPERATION.

EVERYONE WANTS TO GET OUT. MOST CAN'T AND ARE HAVING TO ENDURE ANOTHER DAY WITHOUT POWER AND LIMITED DRINKING WATER. IN THE TOWN SQUARE PEOPLE PATIENTLY WAIT IN LINE TO REFILL WATER BOTTLES.

THOSE THAT CAN MAKE IT HERE RECEIVE TWO MEALS A DAY, FROM A COMMUNITY KITCHEN RUN BY VOLUNTEERS AND GALLON OF WATER TO BATHE IN.

FIRST EXOMOON MAY HAVE BEEN FOUND

First 'exomoon' may have been found 
     BY VERUSKA - ADM 3

Astronomers have announced the possible discovery of the first known moon outside our Solar System.

This "exomoon" is not like any in our cosmic neighbourhood: it's the size of Neptune and orbits a planet the size of Jupiter - but with 10 times the mass.

The object was observed using the Hubble telescope.

 Astronomers David Kipping and Alex Teachey 

But they say that further observations are needed to understand the distant planetary system.

"We've tried our best to rule out other possibilities such as spacecraft anomalies, other planets in the system or stellar activity, but we're unable to find any other single hypothesis which can explain all of the data we have," said Dr Kipping, from Columbia University in New York.

To date, astronomers have discovered more than 3,500 exoplanets - worlds orbiting stars other than the Sun.

This is exactly what the researchers saw: "The location, shape and depth of this event appear consistent with a Neptune-sized moon transiting in front of the star," said Dr Kipping.

About 3.5 hours after the planet's transit ended, the Hubble telescope recorded a second smaller dimming of the star's brightness, which indicated a moon "trailing the planet like a dog following its owner on a leash," according to Dr Kipping.

The researchers also had to remove artefacts from the Hubble data and used computer models to work out how different scenarios fit with the observed data.

MUSIC AND STUDY

Music during the study BY Sergio Pasamon from 2nd bto

Nowadays, studying with music is a controversial topic. Some people affirm that It´s impossible to memorize with such as big noise while others claim that IT improves the capacity of concentratING. And, In my opinion, music is fantastic for studying.

My parents are more and more surprised because  I study with music, PARTICULARLY pop music and they think that I can´t do the homework in a right way but It´s false! Some universities studies explain that you memorize quicker and, what´s more, you generate more creative ideas.

To sum up, every student would HAVE TO listen to music and decide if they love it or they don´t. If you want to try it, I recommend Mireya Bravo´s songs.

POEM TO THE MOON.

ON THE 26TH SEPTEMBER, THE PUPILS WERE READING POEMS IN DIFFERENT LANGUAGES. MY STUDENTS FROM SECOND BACHILLERATO CHOSE THIS ONE. 

BY GARCIA LORCA. ( TRANSLATED)

The moon came into the forge
in her bustle of flowering nard.
The little boy stares at her, stares.
The boy is staring hard.
In the shaken air
the moon moves her amrs,
and shows lubricious and pure,
her breasts of hard tin.
"Moon, moon, moon, run!
If the gypsies come,
they will use your heart
to make white necklaces and rings."
"Let me dance, my little one.
When the gypsies come,
they'll find you on the anvil
with your lively eyes closed tight.
"Moon, moon, moon, run!
I can feelheir horses come."
"Let me be, my little one,
don't step on me, all starched and w
