Talking about traditions and life styles.
TRADITIONS Traditions are a set of cultural patterns inherited from a generation earlier. Between tradicione we have: FESTIVITIES the party bosses, a pattern is a saint who is regarded as the intercessor and advocate in the heaven of a nation, place, craft, activity, class, or person. Among the festivities we can mention: Festivities in honor of the Savior of the world (San Salvador, capital of El Salvador) The procession of palms: The feast is celebrated on May 13 in Los Planes de Renderos in honor of the Virgin Mary the most popular and colorful festival of the town called Cultural Fair flowers and palms or simply palms procession in honor of the Virgin Mary, festival by a Brotherhood of flowers and palms. Every year panchimalco people gather to celebrate the procession of palms which indicates the beginning of the rainy season. A panchita lies along the route of the procession passing through the main streets of panchimalco.
The Procession of Jesus Captive: The ritual of the procession of Jesus Captive patron of Zacatecoluca turned 115 years: why Catholics went out in Pilgrimage Church of Calvary and from there toured the different neighborhoods of the city. The platform, which bears the image and being loaded on the shoulders of a hundred devotees image, THEN celebrations A Mass of thanksgiving and then a dawning, closing of esta form the festivities in the neighborhood El Calvarias, Zacatecoluca, in honor of Jesus Cautivo. The procession of the image, which is cede the last Sunday of January each year, turned 116 years of tradition. Captive Jesus is carried on the shoulders, especially during the Tour of streets, avenues and neighborhoods of the town, by a hundred devotees like Faithful penance for miracles conceived by the Holy. Other, Quality always penance accompany During Barefoot Travel image; Some more, in special women, UN They put white robe on his forehead and Others make "candles" up to two meters in height and four inches thick to last them for 24 hours of travel. Other more he was given robes to the image.
In whole tradition of El Salvador One of the typical Main eat son.
TYPICAL FOODS: Pupusas: Is A thick corn tortillas handmade which is filled with one or more of the following ingredients: cheese, pork, squash, beans or cheese loroco. Also is the revolt with mixed pupusas, cheese and beans, pork pupusas son The typical food More widespread in El Salvador probably because of its low cost and established tradition from generation to generation ingredients.
Chilate: The chelate is a native of Central America beverage prepared from chili, roasted corn and cacao and that he usually added anise, pepper, ginger and cinnamon. Chilate served hot and is taken with sweets like donuts or nuĂŠgados.
TAMALES: is a generic name given to several indigenous origin American dishes usually made with cooked corn dough. In our country there are two types of corn tamales and corn dough. The Corn wrapped in husks from the same plant and beans can's take them in and the dough are wrapped in leaves orchard (mattes banana or banana) can be sweet or salados.los also two types are shown in the pictures.
.
CHICHARRON cassava: Cassava with pork rind is a typical dish of El Salvador and Honduras for their preparation is cooked cassava with a little salt until soft. It is served with seasoned cabbage, tomato sauce and Greaves.
Totopostes: This snack is made from corn and has become a tradition. Its development is handmade and has been passed from generation to generation. Corn, butter, margarine, salt and sweet tied is the ingredients used in the manufacture of these typical snacks from the east. After cooking the corn, grind and prepare the dough is shaped hands and ready to be cooked on a handmade oven, where they receive fire up to three hours.
TRADITIONAL GAMES: The Capirucho: The Capirucho also called: bearing, ticayo, emobote.Es a toy juggling generally composed of a wooden shaft attached by a rope to a golden ball. Way to play: It can be played individually or collectively. The game consists of the stick inserted by clicking on Capirucho as many consecutive times. If you fail you lose the turn.
The spin: It is a wooden toy consisting of a top shaped like a diamond accompanied by a rope. You should wrap the rope around then and give a boost pointing to the ground. Here are some tricks to play and enterers with spin:
The marbles: The marble is a small sphere of glass, clay or parts of ceramics. In this game you can participate in group and so demonstrate your skill and accuracy this is a way to play:

2- About different means of transportation
Transport infrastructure consists of the fixed installations including roads, railways, airways, waterways, canals and pipelines and terminals such as airports, railway stations, bus stations, warehouses, trucking terminals, refueling depots (including fueling docks and fuel stations) and seaports. Terminals may be used both for interchange of passengers and cargo and for maintenance.
Vehicles traveling on these net Works may include autom贸viles, bicycles, buses, trains, trucks, people, helicopters, watercraft, spacecraft and aircraft. Operations deal with the way the vehicles are operated, and the procedures set for this purpose including financing, legalities and policies. In the transport industry, operations and ownership of infrastructure can be either public or private, depending on the country and mode.
Passenger transport may be public, where operators provide scheduled services, or private. Freight transport has become focused on containerization, although bulk transport is used for large volumes of durable 铆tems. Transport plays an important part in economic growth and globalization, but most types cause air pollution and use large amounts of land. White it is heavily subsidized by governments, good planning of transport is essential to make traffic flow and restrain urban sprawl. A fixed-wing aircraft, typically airplane, is a heavier-than-air light vehicle, in which the special geometry of the wing generates lift. A gyroplane is both a fixed-wing and rotary-wing. Fixed-wing aircraft range from small trainers and recreational aircraft to large airliners and military cargo aircraft. For short distances or in inaccessible places, helicopters can be practica.
Rail transport is a means of conveyance of passengers and goods by way of wheeled vehicles running on rail track, known as a railway or railroad. The rails are anchored perpendicular to railroad train consists of one or more connected vehicles that run on the rails. Propulsion is commonly provided by a locomotive, that hauls a series of unpowered cars, that can carry passengers or Wright. The locomotive can be powered by steam, diesel or by electricity supplied by trackside systems. Alternatively, some or all the cars can be powered, known as a multiple unit. Also, a train can be powered by horses, cables, gravity, pneumatics and gas turbines. Railed vehicles move with much less friction than rubber tires on paved roads, making trains more energy efficient, though not as efficient as ships.
Human powered transport, a form of sustainable transportation, is the transport of people and/or goods using human musclepower, in the form of walking, running and swimming. Modern technology has allowed machines to enhance human power. Human-powered transport remains popular for reasons of costsaving, leisure, physical exercise, and environmentalism; it is sometimes the only type available, especially in underdeveloped or inaccessible regions.
Although humans are able to walk without infrastructure, the transport can be enhanced through the use of roads, especially when using the human power with vehicles, such as bicycles and inline skates. Human-powered vehicles have also been developed for difficult environments, such as snow and water, by watercraft rowing and skiing; even the air can be entered with humanpowered aircraft.
Rail transport is where a train runs along a set of two parallel steel rails, known as a railway or railroad. The rails are anchored perpendicular to ties (or sleepers) of timber, concrete or steel, to maintain a consistent distance apart, or gauge. The rails and perpendicular beams are placed on a foundation made of concrete, or compressed earth and gravel in a bed of ballast. Alternative methods include monorail and maglev.
Water transport is movement by means of a watercraft—such as a barge, boat, ship or sailboat—over a body of water, such as a sea, ocean, lake, canal or river. The need for buoyancy is common to watercraft, making the hull a dominant aspect of its construction, maintenance and appearance. Water transport between this, boat.
Vehicle is any non-living device that is used to nove people and goods. Unlike the infrastructure, the vehicle moves along with the cargo and riders. Unless being pulled by a cable or muscle-power, the vehicle must provide its own propulsion; this is most commonly done through a steam engine, combustion engine, electric motor, a jet engine or a rocket, though other means of propulsion also exist. Vehicles also need a system of convertĂan the energy into movement; this is most commonly done through wheels, propellers and pressure.
3- About seansons and weather.
Seasons The four seasons vary significantly in characteristics, and can prompt changes in the world around them.
The passing of a year can bring a marked change in the weather and the surrounding environment. The four seasons — winter, spring, summer, autumn — can vary significantly in characteristics, and can prompt changes in the world around them. Let's take an overview of these four separate periods.
Spring
In the spring, seeds take root and vegetation begins to grow. The weather is warmer, and often wetter. Animals wake or return from warmer climates, often with newborns. Melting snow from the previoalong waterways. [Related: 6 Signs Spring Has Sprung.
Summer. In the summer, temperatures may increase to their hottest of the year. If they spike too high, heat waves or droughts may cause trouble for people, animals, and plants. Rainfall may increase in some areas. Others may receive less water, and forest fires may become more frequent. [Gallery: Stunning Summer Solstice Photos.
Autumm. In the autumn, or fall, temperatures cool again. Plants may begin to grow dormant. Animal might prepare themselves for the upcoming warmer regions to
Winter Winter often brings a chill. Some areas may experience snow or ice, while others see only cold rain. Animals find ways to warm themselves, and may have changed their appearance to adapt.
Winter is the cold season. Summer is the hot season, These seasons are often dry. Spring is the season between winter and summer. The air begins to warm in the spring. Autumn, or fall, is the season between summer and winter. The air begins to cool in the fall. Spring and fall are often wet.
Weather. Weather Clouds There are four basic types of clouds. High clouds, middle clouds, low clouds, and clouds with vertical developement. There are also clouds that don't fall into any of these groups. Low clouds are from the surface to about 6,500 feet and are usually composed of water droplets unless temperatures are several degrees below freezing. Clouds on the ground are called fog. Middle clouds range from about 6,500 feet to about 20,0000 feet. They are also mostly composted of water droplets unless temperatures are cold. High clouds are above 20,000 feet and are composed of ice crystals. Click the link to get the whole story on clouds
Weather - Dust Storm Dust storms are created by winds moving across an arid region. Many times a strong dry cold front is the mechanism that creates the dust or sand storm. As strong winds move across an arid landscape, sand or dirt is picked up from the ground. Sometimes the lighter dust particles can be lifted up to 20,000 feet high into the atmosphere. A classic example of this is a sand and dust storm that develops over the Sahara desert. Easterly winds may carry the dust particles across the Atlantic ocean to the Caribbean Islands or Florida. Severe sand and dust storms can obscure visibility to zero and last for days. Picture courtesy of NOAA, George E. Marsh.
Weather Freezing Rain / Ice Freezing rain - known as "ice" occurs when a thin layer of freezing or below
freezing air exists near the earth's surface. Typically this occurs when snow falls into warmer air changing the precipitation into rain.
Weather - Lightning Lightning is simply a discharge of electricity in the atmosphere. For a complete look at this interesting phenomenon, check the facts about lightning page.
Weather - Rain Rain is precipitation in liquid form. Liquid precipitation can occur as mist, drizzle, or rain. Droplet size differentiates the type that it is classified. Mist is generally 50-500 microns in size. Drizzle is .5 to 2 millimeters in size and rain is 2 millimeters to 1 centimenter in size. Rain is formed when condensation of water vapor occurs condenses into water droplets. Precipitation in the form of rain can be created in a number of different ways. First, two types of processes cause minute droplets to form rain drops. Collision coalescence is a process where tiny droplets gradually grow in size by bumping into each other and growing.
Weather Snow Snow is the accumulation of crystal snowflakes. Snowflakes are made as water ice crystalizes. The crystals may form in many different shapes dictated by the water content and temperature in the cloud as the snowflakes are forming. Snowflakes can take the shape of columns, dendrites, plates, needles and other six sided shapes. It is possible for it to snow several degrees above freezing if the air aloft is very cold and the above freezing layer is shallow near the ground.
Weather - Sun Sunny weather or clear skies is defined as less than 1/8 sky cloud cover. Mostly sunny skies is characterized by 1/8 - 2/8 sky cloud cover. Sunny skies many times are observed when a high pressure area is dominating the weather pattern. High pressure signifies a region of sinking air which tends to dry out the atmosphere resulting in less mositure to form clouds. Deserts are locations with sunny or mostly sunny skies due to high pressure systems influencing the weather pattern much of the year.
Weather Thunderstorm Thunderstorms are cumulonimbus clouds that produce thunder and lightning. Discover more about thunderstorms here. Thunderstorm photographs courtesy of NOAA / NSSL and Rich Johnson.
Weather - Tornado A tornado is a violently rotating column of air usually produced by severe thunderstorms. For much more about tornadoes, check out our tornadoes page. Tornado photographs courtesy of Jim Reed.
Weather - Wind Wind is air in motion in the atmosphere. Windy weather is caused by an imbalance of heating in the atmosphere. It can be caused from an imbalance from solar heating or a difference over a boundary such as a front. The uneven heating generates an unbalanced pressure field. Air from a high pressure area flows toward a region of low pressure to balance the pressure field. A wind vane points to the direction from where the wind is blowing from and an anemometer measures how fast the wind is blowing. The strongest surface wind gust was 253 mph on Australia's Barrow Island during Cyclone Olivia in 1996. The previous wind record was 231 mph set on top of Mount Washington, New Hampshire on April 12, 1934. Photographs courtesy of Rich Johnson and the Sydney Morning Herald.
