To live the longest and healthiest life possible, get smarter. Institute for Health Metrics and Evaluation (IHME)
data show that past a certain threshold, health and wealth are just weakly correlated. However, overall health is
closely tied to how many years people spend in school. Mexico, for instance, has a fifth the per capita gross
domestic product (GDP) of the United States, but, for women, more than 50 percent of the latters schooling.
In line with the trend, Mexicos female adult mortality rate is only narrowly higher. Vietnam and Yemen have
roughly equivalent per capita GDP. Yet Vietnamese women average 6.3 more years in school and are half as
likely to die between the ages of 15 and 60. Economic growth is also significantly associated with child
mortality reductions, but the magnitude of the association is much smaller than that of increased education,
comments Emmanuela Gakidou, IHMEs director of education and training. One year of schooling gives you
about 10 percent lower mortality rates, whereas with a 10 percent increase in GDP, your mortality rate would go
down only by 1 to 2 percent.

A wave of anger is sweeping the cities of the world.
The protests have many different origins. In Brazil people rose up against bus fares, in Turkey against a
building project. Indonesians have rejected higher fuel prices. In the euro zone they march against austerity, and
the Arab spring has become a perma-protest against pretty much everything.
Yet just as in 1848, 1968 and 1989, when people also found a collective voice, the demonstrators have much in
common. In one country after another, protesters have risen up with bewildering speed. They tend to be
ordinary, middle-class people, not lobbies with lists of demands. Their mix of revelry and rage condemns the
corruption, inefficiency and arrogance of the folk in charge.
Nobody can know how 2013 will change the world if at all. In 1989 the Soviet empire teetered and fell. But
Marxs belief that 1848 was the first wave of a proletarian revolution was confounded by decades of flourishing
capitalism and 1968 did more to change sex than politics. Even now, though, the inchoate significance of 2013
is discernible. And for politicians who want to peddle the same old stuff, news is not good.

J. K. Rowling to pen first novel for adults

Author J. K. Rowling has announced plans to publish her first novel for adults, which will be very different
from the Harry Potter books she is famous for.
The book will be published worldwide although no date or title has yet been released. The freedom to explore
new territory is a gift that Harrys success has brought me, Rowling said.
All the Potter books were published by Bloomsbury, but Rowling has chosen a new publisher for her debut into
adult fiction. Although Ive enjoyed writing it every bit as much, my next book will be very different to the
Harry Potter series, which has been published so brilliantly by Bloomsbury and my other publishers around the
world, she said, in a statement. Im delighted to have a second publishing home in Little, Brown, and a
publishing team that will be a great partner in this new phase of my writing life.

Tomorrow,

Nobody'll dare
Say to me,
Eat in the kitchen,

Besides,

And be ashamed.

In (1)Higher Education, a Focus on Technology By STEVE LOHR
The education gap facing the nations work force is evident in the numbers. Most new jobs will require more
than a high school education, yet fewer than half of Americans under 30 have a (2)postsecondary degree of any
kind. Recent state budget cuts, education experts agree, promise to make closing that gap even more difficult.
The Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation, the William and Flora Hewlett Foundation, and four nonprofit
education organizations are beginning an ambitious initiative to address that challenge by accelerating the
development and use of online learning tools.
An initial $20 million round of money, from the Gates Foundation, will be for postsecondary online courses,
particularly ones tailored for community colleges and low-income young people. Another round of grants, for
high school programs, is scheduled for next year.
Just how effective technology can be in improving education by making students more effective, more
engaged learners is a subject of debate. To date, education research shows that good teachers matter a lot,
class size may be less important than once thought and nothing improves student performance as much as onon-
one human tutoring.
If technology is well designed, experts say, it can help tailor the learning experience to individual students,
facilitate student-teacher collaboration, and assist teachers in monitoring student performance each day and in
quickly fine-tuning lessons.
The potential benefits of technology are greater as students become older, more independent learners. Making
that point, Mr. Gates said in an interview that for children from kindergarten to about fifth grade the idea that
you stick them in front of a computer is (3)ludicrous.
(1) higher education: educao superior.
(2) postsecondary: termo que se refere aos cursos feitos aps o high school ou, no modelo educacional
brasileiro, o Ensino Mdio.

What if gang violence in America could be reduced just by talking? Professor and activist David
Kennedy talks with Ben Crair about his new book, Dont Shoot, criticism of his plan, and the economics
of gangs.
In 1995, David M. Kennedy went to Boston on behalf of1 Harvards Kennedy School of Government to study
violent crime. Like many American cities at that time, Boston was suffering a wave of homicides. After linking
up with a special Boston Police Department task force, Kennedy and his team recognized that most of the
killing was the work of a small handful of identifiable gang members. Rather than locking them all up, they
tried something new: They met with the gang members and community leaders, offered them assistance in
getting off the streets, and warned them that, if any single gang member committed another murder2, they would
crack down3 on the entire group. Crime dropped almost overnight, and Kermedys Operation Ceasefire, as it
has come to be known, has been implemented in more than 70 cities, addressing issues from gun violence to
drug markets to juvenile robberies. Now, Kennedy recounts his experiences in a new book, Dont Shoot: One
Man, a Street Fellowship, and the End of Violence in Inner-City America.

Missing Out: In Praise of the Unlived Life is Adam Phillips's 17th book and is a characteristic blend of literary
criticism and philosophical reflection packaged around a central idea. The theme here is missed opportunities,
roads not taken, alternative versions of our lives and ourselves, all of which, Phillips argues, exert a powerful
hold over our imaginations. Using a series of examples and close readings of authors including Philip Larkin
and Shakespeare, the book suggests that a broader understanding of life's inevitable disappointments and
thwarted desires can enable us to live fuller, richer lives. Good things come to those who wait.

restless or bored or irritable, we eat, or we shop.

Time was, advertising was a relatively simple undertaking: buy some print space and airtime, create the spots,
and blast them at a captive audience. Today its chaos: while passive viewers still exist, mostly we pick and
choose what to consume, ignoring ads with a touch of the DVR remote. Ads are forced to become more like
content, and the best aim to engage consumers so much that they pass the material on to friends by email,
Twitter, Facebook who will pass it on to friends, who will... you get the picture. In the industry, viral has
become a usefully vague way to describe any campaign that spreads from person to person, acquiring its own
momentum.
Its not that online advertising has eclipsed TV, but it has become its full partner and in many ways the more
substantive one, a medium in which the audience must be earned, not simply bought.

Analyze an advertisement
Peter Sells
Sierra Gonzales
Not all advertisements make perfect sense. Not all of them promote or imply acceptance of social values that
everyone would agree are what we should hope for, in an enlightened and civilized society. Some
advertisements appear to degrade our images of ourselves, our language, and appear to move the emphasis of
interaction in our society to (even more) consumerism. There may even be a dark, seamy, or seedy side to
advertising. This is hardly surprising, as our society is indeed a consumer society, and it is highly capitalistic in
the simplest sense. There is no doubt that advertising promotes a consumer culture, and helps create and
perpetuate the ideology that creates the apparent need for the products it markets.
For our purposes here, none of this matters. Our task is to analyze advertisements, and to see if we can
understand how they do what they do. We will leave the task of how we interpret our findings in the larger
social, moral and cultural contexts for another occasion.
It is often said that advertising is irrational, and, again, that may well be true. But this is where the crossover
between information and persuasion becomes important; an advertisement does not have to be factually
informative (but it cannot be factually misleading).
In a discussion of what kind of benefit an advertisement might offer to a consumer, Jim Aitchison (1999)
provides the following quote from Gary Goldsmith of Lowe & Partners, New York. It sums up perfectly what it
is that one should look for in an advertisement. The question posed is Is advertising more powerful if it offers a
rational benefit? Here is Goldsmiths answer: I don't think you need to offer a rational benefit. I think you
need to offer a benefit that a rational person can understand.

Although robots have made great strides in manufacturing, where tasks are repetitive, they are still no match for
humans, who can grasp things and move about effortlessly in the physical world.
Designing a robot to mimic the basic capabilities of motion and perception would be revolutionary, researchers
say, with applications stretching from care for the elderly to returning overseas manufacturing operations to the
United States (albeit with fewer workers).
Yet the challenges remain immense, far higher than artificial intelligence obstacles like speaking and hearing.
All these problems where you want to duplicate something biology does, such as perception, touch, planning
or grasping, turn out to be hard in fundamental ways, said Gary Bradski, a vision specialist at Willow Garage,

JUST 10 YEARS INTO A NEW CENTURY, MORE THAN TWO-thirds of the country sees the past decade as
a period of decline for the U.S., according to a new TIME/Aspen Ideas Festival poll that probed Americans on
the decade since the tragic events of Sept. 11, 2001. Osama bin Laden is dead and al-Qaeda seriously weakened,
but the impact of the 9/11 attacks and the decisions that followed have, in the view of most Americans, put the
U.S. in a tailspin that the country has been unable to shake during two administrations and almost 10 years of
trying.
ACCORDING TO THE POLL, ONLY 6% OF MORE THAN 2,000 Americans believe the country has
completely recovered from the events of 9/11. Some of this pessimism can be tied to fears of more terrorist
attacks. Despite the death of bin Laden, most Americans think another terrorist attack in the U.S. is likely.
