Chile to world championship
Chile has always has been a country that has not been very successful in sport internationally. Especially in football that is the world leading sport, so it is very competitive. Other countries in South America usually win us, as might say that Brazil is the best football team in the world. Argentina also has been an important country almost as much as Brazil, but lately has not fared well. Paraguay and uruguay are other strong competitors. While we are not so losers like Peru and Bolivia, the news that we classify the South African world puts us pretty happy. Usually we end up suffering and depending on the results of other matches. This time was different, probably because the work that has done Bielsa, without ignoring the players who have done a very good job too. The captain, Claudio Bravo has been a big support for his character and his abilities as a player. Arturo Vidal is an excellent defense on several occasions and scored goals, like Gary Medel. My favorite player is Orellana, better known as "green duende". He has suffered much for being where he is, and when nobody believed,he continued fighting and carry on. In Catholic uUniversity clubs or important as Colo Colo, did not admit because his short stature. Audax Italiano bring him a home, they accept and believed in him. Gave the possibility of giving all the tools emerge. So I like this player. recently his brother dropped in jail for drug traffic, and orellana dedicated the goal that he scored against Colombia. for the World Championchips I want to be with my friends probably do barbecues and drinking beer. I would love to go to South Africa but is very expensive, but being here is not a bad option. The idea is celebrate. Is just think positive.

The portus
a group of British archaeologists discovered a Roman theater in the south of Tibe river . First they found a navigation channel, with enclosures housing and gardens decorated with large columns. Archaeologists think that this port served as a resting point for Roman emperors. Called "Portus" this seaport, which is now removed from water by natural processes is being excavated by people from the University of Southampton, University cabridge and the British School of Rome. While there had been several digs in the area, no one had thought of the existence of this theater, only the archaeologist Rodolfo Lanciani in 1860 during the last major excavation on the site. Now, with the help of magnetic sensors, ground radar and metal probes, we could get a clear picture of the archaeological remains of the theater that has been dated to about the third century after Christ. Earle Greame notes that the area was used by a high official of the Roman state by luxurious materials used in construction and columns, has even come to think of that could be used by the Roman emperor himself. The grandeur of the theater also suggests that took place gladiatorial games, performances of naval or large animal fights. Another important finding within the site, is the head of a sculpture that may represent the hero Ulysses, who appeared at the time of Emperor Claudius, so we know that Portus was enlarged by Trajan in the second century AD. Archaeologists also believe that after the floods and the collapse of many Roman ships portus it became necessary to transport cereal flours create the Roman capital since that time Rome had grown and needed major ports such as Portus.
