Did he fall or was silent?
By Ana María García Márquez
Kaufman (or should make, according to your suggestion, Garside marques?) Raised an issue that every now and again: that of the Castilian spelling reform, which would be primarily a reduction in alphabet.
I do not agree with this proposal. Those who support it argue that removing the letters that share the same sound you would write fewer errors. But it is also likely that the new system difficult to read. When we read, our eye can not see all the letters, but selects some on the basis of which we anticipate what is next. A system with few marks higher demand effort by the reader. Thus the disappearance of the homophones, which, if it says "The lady fell, we would have to appeal to the rest of the text to know if you closed your mouth or landed on the floor.
Finally, those who propose to simplify the spelling are suggesting, to put it simply, "written as it sounds." But ... Where does it sound? "We keep a z a s for both locals? ... Would it take a different spelling depending on local pronunciations? This enormously difficult written communication among English speakers.
would be desirable to use the enormous this reform effort would require to investigate why children have such difficulty spelling, what is the responsibility of society and school on the problem and what is the best way to solve it.

fat balance
Why women and not men, excess fat accumulated at the bottom? Is it an energy reserve for periods of scarcity? Not according to B. Pawlowski, University of Wroclaw. The explanation more plausible is biomechanics. This overload allows a better balance of woman's body during pregnancy and breastfeeding the baby, and thus promote mobility and the search for balance.
