The Final Problem
This case starts in London in 1891. On day Holmes arrived to Whatson house and his frien notice that Sherlock loos lile very tyred and worried, so he ask him the reason why he`s worry and if he could help him. Sherlock said to whatson that he discovered tha criminal mind behind all the crimes in London, the name of the criminal was "Professor Moriarty", he was a very important professor in university and one of the most intelligent persons that Holmes has ever met, in fact Shelock Holmes considered him as his equal in intelligence.
Shelock told to Whatson that he had been able to find evidence about moriarty crimes, but there was a little problem, Moriarty has dicovered that!!!, and now Moriarty was trying to destroy Holmes that why he asked to Whatson for going with him to Europe and of course whatson accepted. Thay satarted the trip and went to the train station, but there thay saw to a strange man who was chasing them but fortunately he couldn`t catch the train on time.
Finally they arrived to Swisserland adn both decided to satay there ultil the police catch Professor Moriarty. They walk for a little tie and foud a hotel to stay there,so after this they decide to go for a walk near to a waterfalls. When they arrived to the waterfalls a little boy gave letter to Watson, in the letter said that a British woman was very sick in the town so she was asking for madical help. S whatson retuned to the hotel meanwhile Holmes wait for him.
When Watson arrives to the hotel he realice that there was no sick woman thre so he returns as fast as he can to waterfalls but he only find a letter of Holmes saying good bye to his best old friend.
In my point of view this was one of the most interesting chapters in the all book, because for a momentet I thougth that Holmes was died, but at the same time It`s not clear how was his death. and obviously without the main character there is no reason to continue the book. Fortunately Holmes was death just for a Chapter!!!!

Book Report
The Speckled Band
This book was written by Sir Artur Connan Doyle, in this book he retails a lot of unsolved cases which he solved with the help of his best friend Watson.
The Speckled Band story retail us how a youn woman called Helen Stoner goes to visit to Holmes looking for help. She lives in a big house with her stepfather because her mother and sister died a time ago. But now she is worry about herself because the last days her stepfather`s behavior has been strange.
Holmes looks very interested in the case, so he asked to Helen about her sister`s death. Helen says that her sister was about to get marry and that both of them ( Helen and her sister) should recive a part of the money that her mother left when she died, but Helens said that a few days before wedding her sister died in a very strange way and the last words that she told were "it was the Speckled band!".
After hear all the story Holmes and Watson went to Helens house just to see what was happening. Holmes was very impressed about what he found inside the bedrooms: there were a ventilator, and a useless bell-rope!!!. So Holmes told to Helen that she would stay that nigth in her room meanwhile Holmes and Whatson stay in Helen`s sister room quiet in the darkness waiting for something......
Suddenly they heard a terrible noice, it comes from Roylott`s room (helen`s stepfather), Holmes went to see what was happening and he saw that Roylott was sitting in a chair, helding in his hands a lenght of rope and around his neck there was a snake!!!!!
So that`s the way that they discovered how Roylott`s had killed t his daugther without been discovered.
This chapter was very interesting because at the begining of the case maybe I could imagine that Roylott was the murderer but there were a lot of things that made the case unsolved and completely misterious. I really liked that way that the author of the book retails the stories, because at the time that Holmes and Whatson are looking for clues and trying to solve the problem, you are making your own conclussiòns in your head and sometimes I would like to be with them ad help them to solve the case.

I´ve heard this following new, that in Mexico goverment are developing a progressive policy that allows children born in jail to stay with their mothers until they're six years old.
I really don´t know if this is a good idea because this means children are going to live among convicted with murderers and drug dealers and this maybe could be unhealthy for the kid, but in the other hand the child will live with his or her mother and for this simple fact it sounds good. I don´t know if this policy is going to be acepted but I think that the govermenten have to think hard about all the advanteges and disadvantages about rice a kid in jail enviroment.

The last monday happened something very relevant, i´m talking about the earthquake in China, I heard that there are about 15 thousand died people, a lot of desapeared peolple. The earth quake was 7.9 ° richter, the most affected places were cities where were living students, so there are a lot of young people affected.
There are just 85 survivors. A was lintening that in the zone need a lot of things like food, water, drugs, and helicopters because all the roads were destroyed and they can´t transport what they need.

I´ve heard a new about all changes that are happening en the enviroment because of the pollution on earth, water, air, etc. The scientists talking about that in a few years all the planet could be a caos becouse of this reason, they predict a war between diferent countries cause the water is not going to be enough.
I think that nowadays this is one of the most important topics, because for a long time we have been wasting all the natural resources on earth, and what is more we don´t care about all the damage we have caused, and now we´re suffering consecuences of all this.
