Germanwings co-pilot wanted to destroy the plane


The Airbus 320 from Barcelona to Duesseldorf hit a mountain in the Alps, killing all 144 passangers and six crew, after an eight-minute descent.
Andres Lubitz, the germanwings co-pilot, appeared to want to destroy the plane. The black box say that the co-pilot was alone in the cockpit. 

During the travel, the pilot, Patrick S, goes to the WC and let the co-pilot alone in the cockpit. When he return the door was closed. Nobody heart anything inside the cockpit. They try to open the door but they couldn't. Eight minutes later the plane crashed in the Alps. 

There's no indication that the co-pilot became physically ill or suffered a stroke.

Madonna and Avicii

Madonna

33 years after her debut single, Madonna has released her 13 th album, Rebel Heart. Both Avicii and Kanye West worked on it. There's a gospel choir, piano, guitar and reggae too! The songs have religious references, and the album cover is designed to shock. Madonna hasn't changed at all! 







Avicii

Avicii's mixing skills have made him the most famous young Swede of the moment. He released his first album, True, in 2013, and it was a big hit. Fans are still dancing to it, although Avicii released two new singles recently, new album, called Stories, is coming out soon. More of Avicii's mixing magic!

What everyone should know about... Taylor Swift

There's a good chance that you don't know much about Taylor Swift, because she's never been big in France. In which case, you maybe just looked at her picture and saw another banal American pop singer.
Wrong.
Or may be you know about her because of her relationship with Harry Styles from One Direction, in which case you've also probably heard lots of rumours about her "crazy love-life". 
Wrong again.
So let me tell you what you probably don't kow: Taylor Swift is very possibly the most impressive singer-songwriter of our time.
This is someone with such a natural talent for words that she won a national poetry contest in the USA at the age of nine. By age 12, she'd written 350 pages of a novel, but then a computer repair-man taught her how to play three chords on a guitar and she became obsessed by music. 
"I could say things in songs that I wasn't brave enough to say in person" she told The Times newspaper recently. "I xould turn them into a metaphor, into a chrous, and then, for some reason, those emotions  made more sense to me".
A year later, she was signed by Sony as their youngest ever songwriter. In fact, she later moved to the small independent label, Big Machine Records. After all, you can't get everything right at age 13, can you?
High school was a barrier to concentrating on her music, naturally, but what could she do? Well... complete her last two years of study in a single year at home. Obviously.
Are you staring to revise your opinion of her a little yet?

The surprise



This Saturday was my 16 th birthday. My friends decided to invite me to the cinema and then for a snack. But on Friday they called me to tell me that they won't come because they have  a basketball match. So I spent the day with my mum in Barcelona, buying something for me. It was great but I was a little disapointed. At 7 o'clock we arrived home. When I opened the door, I saw all my friends and they shouted: "Surprise!". so they hadn't forgotten and it was a great night!

Last weekend

Julia

Last weekend I didn’t do a lot of things. I woke up at 10 o’clock. Then I had breakfast and I went to play tennis. When I arrived home, I had lunch and I stayed on the sofa watching TV. At 6 p.m I went to the cinema with some Friends. It was fantastic.

On Sunday morning I went with my parents to the beach. We stayed there for 5 hours. When we came back, I watched a film with my sister and we went to bed at 12 o’clock. I was a great weekend.

Cultural exchange

Hi Laura
