Snoopy is an extroverted beagle with a Walter Mitty complex. He is a virtuoso at every endeavor at least in his daydreams atop his doghouse. He regards his master, Charlie Brown, as "that round-headed kid" who brings him his supper dish. He is fearless though prudently cautious about "the cat next door." He never speaks- that would be one human trait too many- but he manages to convey everything necessary in facial expressions and thought balloons. A one-man show with superior intelligence and vivid imagination, he has created such multiple personalities as: Joe Cool, World War I Flying Ace, Literary Ace, Flashbeagle, Vulture, Foreign Legionnaire, etc.

Dear Son, Im writing this letter slowly because I know you cant read fast. About your father - he isnt looking for a job anymore. Now he has a lovely job. He has 500 men under him - he cuts grass at the cemetery. Your uncle Patrick drowned last week in a vat of whiskey in the Dublin Distillery. Some of his workmates tried to save him but he fought against them bravely. They cremated him and it took three days to put out the fire. I went to the doctor on Thursday and your father went with me. The doctor put a sort of small tube in my mouth and told me not to talk for five minutes. When your father realized what had happened he offered to buy the tube from the doctor. It only rained twice this week, first for three days and then for four days. Monday was so windy that one of the chickens laid the same egg four times. We had a letter from the undertaker last week. He says he isnt going to wait anymore. If the payment on your Grandmothers plot isnt paid in seven days, up she comes! Your loving Mother P.S. I was going to send you five pounds but I had already sealed the envelope.

A man was reading the paper when an ad caught his eye: $500 Porsche! New! The man thought that it was very unusual to sell a Porsche for $500, and he thought it might be a joke, but thought it was worth a shot. So he went to the lady's house and sure enough, she had an almost brand new Porsche. "Wow!" the man said. "Can I take it for a test drive?" Unlike what he expected, the man found that the car ran perfectly and took it back to the lady's house. "Why are you selling me this great Porsche for only $500?" "My husband just ran off with his secretary, and he told me I could have the house and the furniture as long as I sold his Porsche and sent him the money." Japanese researchers develop synthetic paste for teeth

LONDON - Treating early tooth decay could become easier and less painful thanks to a new discovery by Japanese scientists. Researchers in Japan have developed a new synthetic tooth enamel that can repair early tooth decay without the need for drillings and fillings. The crystalline white paste can reconstruct enamel without removing the decayed area. It repairs small cavities and helps prevent new ones. We have shown that our synthetic material can reconstruct enamel without prior excavation, Kazue Yamagishi, of the FAP Dental Institute in Tokyo, said in a report in the science journal Nature on Wednesday. Dentists usually treat cavities by removing the decayed area and filling the hole with a resin or metal alloy. But it is not ideal for small cavities because healthy tooth is also removed to make the filling stick. The scientists tested the new paste on early decay in a lower premolar tooth. After examining the tooth with an electron microscope they found the paste integrated with the tooths natural enamel. But the researchers warned the paste should not come into contact with the gums because it could cause inflammation due to its high concentration of hydrogen peroxide.

Post-World War I and the Great Depression (19181940) Following World War I, the U.S. grew steadily in stature as an economic and military world power. The aftershock of Russia's October Revolution resulted in real fears of communism in the United States, leading to a three-year Red Scare. Prohibition agents destroyed barrels of alcohol in Chicago, 1921. The United States Senate did not ratify the Treaty of Versailles imposed by its Allies on the defeated Central Powers; instead, the United States chose to pursue unilateralism, if not isolationism. In 1920, the manufacture, sale, import and export of alcohol was prohibited by the Eighteenth Amendment to the United States Constitution. The "Prohibition" encouraged illegal breweries and dealers to make substantial amounts of money selling alcohol illegally. The Prohibition ended in 1933, a failure. During most of the 1920s, the United States enjoyed a period of unbalanced prosperity: farm prices and wages fell, while industrial profits grew. The boom was fueled by a rise in debt and an inflated stock market. The Wall Street Crash of 1929, the Dust Bowl, and the ensuing Great Depression led to government efforts to restart the economy and help its victims with Franklin D. Roosevelt's New Deal. The recovery was rapid in all areas except unemployment, which remained fairly high until 1940.

BNDES

Even if the automobile is one of the most powerful symbols of the American Dream, the recent war in Iraq led many people to question the countrys dependence on oil. It wasnt the car itself which came under attack from environmentalists so much as some of the most wasteful models. The massive SUV, or Sports Utility Vehicle, which is a truck on wheels, rather than a car, is a particular object of hate: the Hummer, for example, gives you as little as 12 miles per gallon, whereas a Toyota Prius can do 52 and this led the Union of Concerned Scientists to observe: If everybody in the US who drives an SUV drove a car instead, we could cut out Middle Eastern oil imports entirely.

The $200-a-week package tours from the north of England have not begun to descend on San Antonio Bay, which resembles a mini-Miami Beach on the Spanish Mediterranean. Ibiza owes its life to tourism. When holiday makers from Europe began flocking to the arid and impoverished island 30 years ago, they saved it from collapse. Their dollars helped compensate for the stagnant salt, fishing and agriculture industries. But to tourism grew too much, too fast. Ibiza became synonymous with sun, sex and sangria. Thousands of young Europeans descended upon the island each summer, threatening to destroy the local culture and the people's peaceful life. Now the island is fighting back. The government is desperately trying to take tourism in a new direction, by inviting more capital from up-market tourists and promoting cultural tourism to attract selected groups of culture-hungry tourists so as to avoid the damaging effects of uncontrolled tourist trade. It is also setting high standards for hotels and restaurants, and forbidding new construction close to the water.

In 1980, at 38, I was a U.S. citizen and a self-made telecommunications millionaire. By 1990, I was 47 years old and nearing the end of nearly a decade back in India as leader of a controversial but largely successful effort to build an Indian information industry and begin the immense task of extending digital telecommunications to every corner of my native country, even to villages like the one where I was born. That effort persists today at an increased pace, but it remains controversial. Some of the controversy has centered on me and my methods. Most of it focuses on the efficacy and logic of bringing information technology to people who are in global terms the poorest of the poor. Common sense and accepted thinking about economic development have long held it ridiculous to supply Third-World villages with modern technology. What subsistence farmers need is not high-tech science and complex systems, the argument goes, but basic literacy, disease resistant cereals and oilseeds, that is, all the "appropriate" technologies that the unsophisticated rural poor can use and understand. For me, modern telecommunications and electronic information systems are appropriate technologies even in those regions of the world that still lack adequate water, food, and power. The reason is simply that modern telecommunications is an indispensable a id in meeting basic needs. Wouldn't a telephone help a poor community if a natural calamity, like fire or flood, happened? Technology can eliminate cultural barriers, affect economic inequalities, even compensate for intellectual disparities. In short, high technology can put unequal Pgina 21

ANIMAL MAGIC Most animals have a better sense of smell than humans. Dogs, for example, are renowned for their acute sense of smell a hunting dog has around 220 million sensory cells, 35 times more than a human. Horses also have highly developed noses, to make up for their poor eyesight, and fish and water mammals also usually have a good sense of smell. Sharks, in particular, can detect fresh blood at great distances. Smell can ensure the survival of the species male silkworm can locate a female five miles away by her specific aroma. Some animals, however, cant smell at all. Most underground animals have an acute sense of vibration, but cannot detect any scent.

NIGHT MOVES No one knows why some people sleepwalk. But it tends to run in families and is much more common in children than in adults. Although sleepwalkers are usually able to guide themselves through doors and down stairs, they are infallible and can quite easily hurt themselves by walking into things. It is difficult and not advisable to wake a sleepwalker. Usually the best idea is simply to guide them back to bed. According to Dr Hanning, the people most likely to sleepwalk and to sleep talk are those who tend to be more deeply affected by outside events such as horror films and disturbing news stories. This may well explain why children are more prone than adults.

NUTRITION BARS: NOT WHAT THEY CLAIM Many of the high-priced nutrition bars Americans wolf down arent what they seem, a new study says. The gadflies at consumelab.com, a private organization that evaluates health and nutrition products, tested 30 bars for level of fat, carbohydrates, proteins, cholesterol and sodium. Only 12 conformed to their labels claims. Half had up to 20 grams more of carbs, including sugar. The lab says people should be skeptical of any bar claiming to have fewer than 15 grams of carbs. Four bars had at least twice as much sodium as claimed. Two had more overall fat, and four had up to three times the listed levels of saturated fat. But dieters rejoice: all calorie claims were accurate.

CIGARETTE SMOKING DELAY CONCEPTION Women who want to get pregnant delay their chances by about two months if they smoke tobacco, a study finds. The study clearly shows a link between smoking and fertility problems, says Marcus Munafo of the Institute of Health Sciences at the University of Oxford in England. The study included 569 women smokers, ex-smokers and those who had never smoked with an average age of 29. On average, smokers took two months longer to conceive, but the scientists found no difference between women who had never smoked and those who had quit at least a year earlier, says the report in the Journal of Biosocial Science. In addition to delaying conception, smoking during pregnancy is linked to higher infant mortality, an increased risk of respiratory infection and lower-weight babies, scientific studies have shown.

Agora, vamos mapear o texto abaixo e descobrir o seu tema principal: The widespread destruction of tropical rainforest ecosystems and the consequent extinction of numerous plant and animal species is happening before we know even the most basic facts about what we are losing. Covering only 6 percent of the Earth's surface, tropical moist forests contain at least half of all species. The abundant botanical resources of tropical forests have already provided substantial medical advances; yet only 1 percent of the known plant and animal species have been carefully examined for their medicinal potentials. Meanwhile, 2 percent of the world's rainforests are irreparably damaged each year. Scientists estimate that, at the accelerating rate at which rainforests are now being destroyed, as much as 20 or 25 percent of the world's plant species will soon be extinct. Approximately 7,000 medical compounds prescribed by Western doctors are obtained from plants. These drugs had an estimated retail value of US$ 43 billion some years ago. Seventy percent of the 3,000 plants identified by the United States National Cancer Institute as having potential anti-cancer properties are characteristic of the rainforest. Tropical forest species serve Western surgery and internal medicine in three ways. First, extracts from organisms can be used directly as drugs. For maladies ranging from persistent headaches to lethal contagions such as malaria, rainforest medicines have provided modern society with a variety of cures and pain relievers.

Ingls Secondly, chemical structures of forest organisms sometimes serve as models from which scientists and researchers can chemically synthesize drug compounds. For example, the blueprint for aspirin comes from extracts of willow trees found in the rainforest. Neostigmine, a chemical obtained from the Calabar bean and used to treat glaucoma in West Africa, also provides the blueprint for synthetic insecticides. However, the chemical structures of most natural drugs are very complex, and simple extraction is usually less expensive than synthesis. Ninety percent of the prescription drugs that are based on higher plants include direct extractions from plants. Finally, rainforest plants provide aids for research. Certain plant compounds enable scientists to understand how cancer cells grow, while others serve as testing agents for potentially harmful food and drug products. Tropical forests offer hope for safer contraceptives for both women and men. The exponential growth of world population clearly demonstrates the need for more reliable and effective birth control methods. Worldwide, approximately 4,000 plant species have been shown to offer contraceptive possibilities. The rainforest also holds secrets for safer pesticides for farmers. Two species of potatoes have leaves that produce a sticky substance that traps and kills predatory insects. This natural selfdefense mechanism could potentially reduce the need for using pesticides on potatoes. Who knows what other tricks the rainforest might have up its leaves? http://www.ran.org/info_center/factsheets/05f.html 1995-2003 Rainforest Action Network

PETS PROVIDE HEALING FOR THE XXI CENTURY By Margrit Oyens The Umbrella , Vol. X, Novembro de 2004 In an interview given by Dr. Tennis Turner, president of the International Association of Human-Animal Integration Organizations (IAHAIO) and professor for veterinary science at the University of Zurich, he stated that the company of cats and dogs is essential to human quality of life. He has been trying to convince authorities, from ministers of health of First World countries to leaders of small South African communities, to invest in programs of Animal Assisted Therapy (AAT). Dr. Turner has stated that the company of pets benefits not only those physically or mentally ill, but also all ordinary human beings, regardless of their family income. It is good not only for the health of the individual but for public health as well.

Imagine a normal citizen, meaning someone healthy who needs some kind of therapy. The presence of a pet can lower his/her blood pressure, which is one of the reasons for a pet guardians better quality of life, one year after having a heart attack. Another explanation is obvious and applies to all guardians of dogs who wish to guard against heart disease: more daily exercise due to the necessary dog walking. Pet guardians generally have a lower level of cholesterol and are therefore less prone to heart attacks. A study published by the British Journal of the Royal Society of Medicine shows that pet guardians are less likely to be bothered by small health problems and enjoy a better quality of life than people who have no pets. Companionship animals are also of help to children, both at home and in school. They augment childrens self-esteem, improve their integration with other children and increase their performance in school.

1. When we use the present perfect tense we are saying that a finished action or event is connected with the present. When we say that something has happened we are thinking about the present and the past at the same time. What is Ted doing? He is looking for his key. He has lost it. I cant go to the park with you because Ive broken my leg. (my leg is broken now) Susan has had a baby. Our cat has died. 3. The present perfect is also used to give the idea of completion or achievement. The maids finished all the housework. Have you done all your homework? I have mastered my English. My mechanic has already fixed my car.

3. The present perfect can be used when we are referring to a period of time continuing up to the present. Have you ever seen the movie Lethal Weapon? Im sure weve met before. Hes never apologized for anything in his life! Has Bob come yet? Yes, and hes already started to make trouble. Have you told the whole story to Peter No, I havent told him yet. 4. It is also correct to use the present perfect to say that something has happened several times up to the present. Ive been to Canada once/twice/three times. Ive already written ten e-mails to Anna and she hasnt answered me yet. How often have you been in love in your life? 5. It is common to use the present perfect to say how long a present situation has lasted. Ive been a student since 1984. Theyve studied hard for years. How long have you been a teacher? Ive been a teacher for seven years. NOTES

Paul Auster was born in Newark, New Jersey on 3 February 1947. He is a contemporary American novelist of Jewish origin.

In 1959 his parents ... a large house in their town's most prestigious neighborhood.
