Największe zwycięstwo Portugalii w historii drużyny

Ronaldo, który nosił koszulki klubowe piłkarskie portugalskiej drużyny, był nieobecny ze względu na kumulujące się zawieszenia spowodowane żółtymi kartkami. Bruno Fernandez wystąpił do przodu i poprowadził drużynę do zwycięstwa 9:0 nad Luksemburgiem w szóstym meczu, zdobywając największe zwycięstwo w drużynie historia.

Dołożył trzy asysty i strzelił jednego gola w meczu, stając się największym wkładem w zwycięstwo zespołu. Inacio, Gonzalo Ramos i Jota w stroje piłkarskie strzelili po dwa gole w meczu. Pozostałe dwa gole Portugalii zdobyły odpowiednio Horta i Felish. To zwycięstwo pozwoliło portugalskiej drużynie utrzymać niepokonany rekord w rundach kwalifikacyjnych i obecnie prowadzi w Grupie J z 18 punktami, strzelając jednocześnie 24 gole i tracąc zero bramek. W następnej kolejności portugalska drużyna zmierzy się z drugą w grupie Słowacją, która zgromadziła obecnie 13 punktów. Luksemburg zajmuje trzecie miejsce z 10 punktami, podczas gdy Bośnia i Hercegowina oraz Islandia zajmują czwarte i piąte miejsce z 6 punktami, a Liechtenstein znajduje się na samym dole i nie zdobył jeszcze gola.

Portugal handhaaft een ongeslagen record

Ronaldo, die de goedkope voetbaltenues van het Portugese team droeg, was afwezig vanwege opeenvolgende schorsingen vanwege gele kaarten. Bruno Fernandez stapte naar voren en leidde het team naar een 9-0 overwinning op Luxemburg in de zesde wedstrijd, waarmee hij de grootste overwinning in het team behaalde. geschiedenis.

Hij droeg drie assists bij en scoorde één doelpunt in de wedstrijd, waarmee hij de grootste bijdrage leverde aan de overwinning van het team. Inacio, Gonzalo Ramos en Jota in voetbaltenue clubs scoorden allemaal tweemaal in de wedstrijd. De andere twee doelpunten van Portugal kwamen respectievelijk van Horta en Felish. Door deze overwinning kon het Portugese team een onverslaanbaar record behouden in de kwalificatierondes en leidt momenteel Groep J met 18 punten, terwijl het ook 24 doelpunten scoorde en nul doelpunten tegen kreeg. Vervolgens neemt het Portugese team het op tegen het Slowaakse team dat op de tweede plaats staat in de groep, dat momenteel 13 punten heeft verzameld. Luxemburg staat op de derde plaats met 10 punten, terwijl Bosnië en Herzegovina en IJsland op de vierde en vijfde plaats staan met 6 punten, terwijl Liechtenstein onderaan staat en nog moet scoren.

Portugal routs Luxembourg in record 9-0 win without suspended Ronaldo Portugal didn't need Cristiano Ronaldo to rack up its biggest-ever win in a competitive game. A 9-0 rout of Luxembourg in European Championship qualifying on Monday was achieved without Ronaldo, who was suspended because of an accumulation of yellow cards in earlier Group J games. In the absence of the five-time world player of the year and record scorer in men's internationals, Goncalo Ramos, Goncalo Inacio and Diogo Jota all scored twice along with goals for Ricardo Horta, Bruno Fernandes and Joao Felix in the Algarve. It was a satisfactory aspect that, being 4-0 or 5-0 up, the team kept playing the same way as if it was 0-0, Portugal coach Roberto Martinez said. "When you get that, it shows you the values of the players and that the respect toward the team is essential that was really good to see. The 38-year-old Ronaldo missed a great chance to add to his haul of 123 international goals but there'll be four more opportunities in a group that Portugal is dominating with six ... https://www.business-standard.com/sports/football-news/portugal-routs-luxembourg-in-record-9-0-win-without-suspended-ronaldo-123091200181_1.html

As US schools resume testing, large numbers are opting out (AP) Standardized tests are returning to the nation’s schools this spring, but millions of students will face shorter exams that carry lower stakes, and most families are being given the option to forgo testing entirely. With new flexibility from the Biden administration, states are adopting a patchwork of testing plans that aim to curb the stress of exams while still capturing some data on student learning. Some of the nation’s largest districts plan to test only a fraction of their students as many continue to learn remotely. In New York City, students must opt in to be tested this year. In Los Angeles, most students are not being asked to take state exams this year. Other districts are scaling back questions or testing in fewer subjects. As in the past, parents are polarized. Some are demanding tests to get a sense of their children’s progress. Others see no need to put their children through that kind of stress.

Their Own Private Idaho: Five Oregon Counties Back a Plan to Secede (NYT) Political divisions in Oregon can to a great degree be measured by a river, the Deschutes, which winds its snaky, circuitous way through the state’s midsection. The river divides the high prairies of the eastern half—agricultural and politically conservative, largely—from the wetter, woodier western half, which has long been more populated and more liberal. The statewide shutdown orders that accompanied the coronavirus pandemic last year deepened those divisions, crippling businesses at a time when some rural counties had few cases. The protests and riots over race and police conduct in Portland, the state’s largest city, widened the gap further still, and the defeat of former President Donald J. Trump, who won most counties but still lost the state by a big margin after President Biden’s strong showing in the cities, capped off a litany of frustrations. This week, all of that led thousands of east-bank residents to a single resonant but highly improbable word: secession. A majority of residents in five eastern counties said in nonbinding votes that they would like to leave Oregon and join with their more like-minded conservative neighbors further east in Idaho. “Those of us in rural Oregon are written off,” said Mike McCarter, a retired agricultural nursery owner who has led the secession drive.

After an absence, New England’s ticks are back—and hungry (AP) A late-summer drought virtually eliminated ticks in parts of New England but they’re back with a vengeance this spring. Dog ticks, which do not carry Lyme disease like deer ticks do, have been especially active since early spring in Maine, New Hampshire and Vermont. And people who’ve been getting outdoors because of the pandemic are discovering the arachnids on themselves and on pets. The busy spring for ticks has been sending more people to the emergency room in Maine. Maine Center for Disease Control and Prevention reported 176 tick-related emergency department visits for the week that ended May 16. Last year, there were 91 tick-related ER visits in the same week. “Tickborne diseases remain a serious threat in Maine,” Maine CDC said in a statement.

COVID-19 deaths in Latin America surpass 1 mln as outbreak worsens (Reuters) The death toll from COVID-19 in Latin America and the Caribbean passed 1 million people on Friday, according to a Reuters tally, with the pandemic worsening in the part of the world with the highest per capita death rate. From the dusty highlands of Bolivia to the Brazilian metropolis of São Paulo, the pandemic has swamped underfunded healthcare systems after spreading fast across nations where many people survive hand-to-mouth and have been unable to enter lockdown. With cases falling in Europe, Asia and North America, and flat in Africa, South America is the only region where new infections are rising rapidly on a per capita basis, according to Our World in Data.

Lula Starts to Rekindle Old Magic in Brazil Souring on Bolsonaro (Bloomberg) They came by the dozens in solicitous clusters from the left but also the center and right to a Brasilia hotel suite this month. They smiled and fist-bumped. They tweeted. The man whose attention they were seeking, Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva, received them, pope-like, surrounded by exhilarated aides. Lula, the Brazilian shoeshine boy who founded the Workers’ Party, became an epoch-defining, wildly popular president, then was jailed for corruption and cleared by the supreme court, is emerging as the main challenger to President Jair Bolsonaro in next year’s election. As the country of 212 million reels from the death toll and upheaval caused by Covid, driving down Bolsonaro’s approval to 24%, interviews with a dozen political leaders indicate that Lula, who was president from 2003 through 2010, is rapidly uniting a vast chunk of the political spectrum around his expected candidacy. As his Workers’ Party president, Gleisi Hoffmann, said in an interview, after pressing for more vaccines and aid to the poor, “Our main role is to organize as many forces as possible to face the greatest evil that is Bolsonaro.”

BBC faces questions of integrity after Princess Diana report (AP) British broadcaster BBC, seen as a respected source of news and information around the world, is facing questions at home about its integrity following a scathing report on its explosive 1995 interview with Princess Diana. Britain’s justice secretary said Friday that the government would review the rules governing oversight of the BBC after an investigation found that one of its journalists used “deceitful behavior” to secure the interview and the corporation obscured this misconduct for 25 years. Princes William and Harry, Diana’s sons, excoriated the BBC late Thursday, saying there was a direct link between the interview and their mother’s death in a traffic accident two years later as she and a companion were being pursued by paparazzi.

Bienvenidos! Tourists invited to rural Spain to save dying villages (Reuters) Instead of the traditional sand and sea holidays, foreign tourists are invited to enjoy the charms of the Spanish countryside, Prime Minister Pedro Sanchez said on Saturday, launching an ambitious plan to save Spain’s dying villages. The 10 billion euro ($12.18 billion) plan aims to save rural life in a nation where 42% of villages are at risk of depopulation compared to a European Union average of 10%. From Monday, Spain will open up to tourists from outside the European Union deemed low-risk for coronavirus, notably Britain and Japan, who will not be required to show a negative test. The left-wing government plans to increase internet access in rural areas, improve transport routes, offer grants for young entrepreneurs and small businesses and launch a rural Erasmus educational scheme. Sanchez said that Spain’s 47 million people occupy just 12.7% of the land, compared to 67.8% of the territory populated in France and 59.9% of German territory.

2 separate China quakes cause damage; 3 dead, dozens hurt (AP) A strong, shallow earthquake shook southwestern China near the border with Myanmar, killing at least three people and injuring more than two dozen, while a separate, more intense quake early Saturday collapsed a bridge and caused other damage in central China. The first, 6.4 magnitude earthquake hit Yunnan province late Friday. The second 7.3 magnitude quake occurred hours later in the southern part of Qinghai province, about 1,000 kilometers (621 miles) to the south, according to Chinese measurements. While no deaths have been reported so far in Qinghai province, the quakes tore up roads and bridges, with one collapsing completely, broken into segments.

After the Cease-Fire, Gaza Wakes to a Sea of Rubble (NYT) The skies above Gaza and Israel were silent for the first time in 10 days on Friday night, after a truce between Israel and Hamas, the militant group that runs Gaza, took effect early Friday. But while Israel could quickly rebound, with the authorities reopening roads around Gaza that had been closed during the conflict, the scale of the destruction in Gaza will not allow a return to normality for some time. Central thoroughfares in Gaza City looked like a dystopia. A sea of rubble, several yards high and dozens wide, spread across several streets, blocking half their breadth. A vast crater filled a wide intersection, a burst sewage pipe gurgling at the bottom. A burned-out white car, hit by an airstrike this week, remained on the same spot at the seaside traffic circle where it was struck, forcing drivers to edge around it. Israeli airstrikes killed more than 230 people, destroyed more than 1,000 housing and commercial units, rendered more than 750 uninhabitable, and displaced more than 77,000 people, according to tallies compiled by Gazan officials and the United Nations. Seventeen clinics and hospitals were damaged, as well as three major desalination plants, power lines and sewage works, leaving 800,000 residents, or nearly half the population, without easy access to clean drinking water, the United Nations added. More than 53 schools were damaged.

Boko Haram Leader, Responsible for Chibok Schoolgirl Kidnappings, Dies (WSJ) Abubakar Shekau, the fundamentalist warlord who turned Boko Haram from an obscure radical sect into a jihadist army whose war with the Nigerian state has left tens of thousands dead across four nations, has died, according to officials, mediators, phone calls intercepted by a West African spy agency and internal intelligence memos seen by The Wall Street Journal. His death, which Nigeria’s military has erroneously reported at least three times before, was confirmed by five Nigerian officials who detailed how he detonated a suicide vest during a confrontation with rival insurgents to avoid being taken alive. It removes one the world’s most brutal and effective terrorists, who plunged four nations, including Africa’s most populous, into a religious war. Globally, he was best known for kidnapping nearly 300 schoolgirls from the town of Chibok on the night before their final exams.

Volcano erupts near Congolese city of Goma; residents flee (AP) Congo’s Mount Nyiragongo erupted for the first time in nearly two decades Saturday, turning the night sky a fiery red and sending lava onto a major highway as panicked residents tried to flee Goma, a city of nearly 2 million. There was no immediate word on any casualties, but witnesses said that lava already had engulfed one highway that connects Goma with the city of Beni in North Kivu province. Mount Nyiragongo’s last eruption, in 2002, left hundreds dead and coated airport runways in lava. More than 100,000 people were left homeless in the aftermath, adding to the fear in Goma on Saturday night. “We are already in a total psychosis,” resident Zacharie Paluku told The Associated Press. “Everyone is afraid; people are running away. We really don’t know what to do.”

Fungi (Scientific American) We are likely to think of fungi, if we think of them at all, as minor nuisances: mold on cheese, mildew on shoes shoved to the back of the closet, mushrooms springing up in the garden after hard rains. We notice them, and then we scrape them off or dust them away, never perceiving that we are engaging with the fragile fringes of a web that knits the planet together. Fungi constitute their own biological kingdom of about six million diverse species. Fungi break rocks, nourish plants, seed clouds, cloak our skin and pack our guts, a mostly hidden and unrecorded world living alongside us and within us. That mutual coexistence is now tipping out of balance. Fungi are surging beyond the climate zones they long lived in, adapting to environments that would once have been inimical, learning new behaviors that let them leap between species in novel ways. While executing those maneuvers, they are becoming more successful pathogens, threatening human health in ways—and numbers—they could not achieve before. Surveillance that identifies serious fungal infections is patchy, and so any number is probably an undercount. But one widely shared estimate proposes that there are possibly 300 million people infected with fungal diseases worldwide and 1.6 million deaths every year—more than malaria, as many as tuberculosis. Just in the U.S., the CDC estimates that more than 75,000 people are hospitalized annually for a fungal infection, and another 8.9 million people seek an outpatient visit, costing about $7.2 billion a year. For physicians and epidemiologists, this is surprising and unnerving. Long-standing medical doctrine holds that we are protected from fungi not just by layered immune defenses but because we are mammals. That may have left us overconfident.

Teatro no Brasil

O teatro em terras brasileiras nasceu em meados do século XVI como instrumento de catequese dos Jesuítas vindos de Coimbra como missionários e índios. Era um teatro, portanto, com função religiosa e objetivos claros: evangelizar os índios e apaziguar os conflitos existentes entre eles e os colonos portugueses e espanhóis. O primeiro grupo de Jesuítas a desembarcar na Bahia de Todos os Santos, em 1549, era composto por quatro religiosos da comitiva de Tomé de Sousa, entre os quais o padre Manuel da Nóbrega. O segundo grupo de missionários chegou à então Província do Brasil no dia 13 de julho de 1553, como parte da comitiva de Duarte da Costa. No grupo de quatro religiosos estava o jovem José de Anchieta (1534-1597), então com dezenove anos de idade.

A população estimada de 57 mil habitantes era composta por colonos, muitos deles criminosos, e índios em sua maioria de vida nômade. Os jesuítas mantinham os indígenas em pequenas aldeias, isolados de dois terríveis perigos: a vida desregrada e a escravidão impostas pelo homem branco explorador e o consequente retorno ao paganismo. A tradição teatral jesuítica encontrou no gosto dos índios pela dança e pelo canto um solo fértil e os religiosos passaram a se valer dos hábitos e costumes dos silvícolas – máscaras, arte plumária, instrumentos musicais primitivos – para as suas produções com finalidades catequéticas.

Tematicamente, essas produções mesclavam a realidade local (tanto de índios quanto dos colonos) com narrativas hagiográficas (vidas dos santos). Como toda espécie de dominação cultural prescinde um conhecimento da cultura do dominado, o Padre Anchieta seguiu o preceito da Companhia de Jesus que determinava ao jesuíta o aprendizado da língua onde mantivessem missões. Assim, foi incumbido de organizar uma gramática da língua tupi, o que fez com sucesso.

Brazilian former President Michel Temer was hit with more graft charges on Friday, just a day after being charged in a separate corruption case, according to federal prosecutors. Brazil's former President Michel Temer arrives at his home in Sao Paulo, Brazil March 25, 2019. REUTERS/Amanda Perobelli Temer, who left the presidency at the end of 2018, was arrested last week as part of an investigation into kickbacks on a nuclear plant’s construction contract involving the Brazilian subsidiary of Swedish consulting firm AF Poyry (AFb.ST), along with engineering firms Engevix and Argeplan. Temer has since been released and denies wrongdoing. AF Poyry has said it would not comment on an ongoing investigation. Engevix and Argeplan did not reply to requests for comment. Federal prosecutors charged Temer and his former energy minister Wellington Moreira Franco of taking part in a bribery scheme related to the Angra nuclear power plant complex on the Rio de Janeiro coast and other state firms. Moreira Franco has also said he is innocent. Last week, prosecutors said the graft at Angra was one aspect of a “criminal organization” that Temer had run during his four decades in public life, which received or arranged upward of 1.8 billion reais ($462.53 million) in bribes. Temer, 78, served for two years as Sao Paulo state’s prosecutor general starting in 1983. In 1985 he was elected to Congress, where he served until becoming former president Dilma Rousseff’s vice president in 2011. He took over as president after Rousseff was impeached in 2016. Temer’s Brazil Democratic Movement party long held sway over key appointments in Brazil’s largely state-run energy sector, including nuclear power plants. Work on Angra 3, the third nuclear power plant planned in the Angra complex, has advanced haltingly since 1984 and has long been on the radar of graft investigators. The complex is run by Eletronuclear, a unit of state power holding company Centrais Eletricas Brasileiras SA, known as Eletrobras. Temer is the second former president to be arrested in Brazil’s unprecedented anti-corruption push since 2014. Former President Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva is in jail serving over 12 years for a corruption conviction. On Thursday, Temer was charged with corruption on allegations of using a middleman to procure a suitcase full of cash from controlling shareholders of the world’s largest meatpacker, JBS SA. In 2017, security cameras captured video of a former Temer adviser, Rodrigo da Rocha Loures, running out of a Sao Paulo restaurant carrying a bag with 500,000 reais in cash. Plea-bargain testimony by two executives of JBS holding company J&F Investimentos SA implicated Temer and others in a bribery scheme and led prosecutors to accuse Rocha Loures of being a middleman for Temer, which the former president denied. Rocha Loures, who also denied the charges, is awaiting trial.

A Justa

Aracy M. de Carvalho Guimarães Rosa (1908–2011) Em 1938, entrou em vigor no Brasil a Circular Secreta 1.127, que restringia a entrada de judeus no país. Porém, entre os anos de 1936 e 1942, seu trabalho no escritório de expedição de passaportes permitiu que Aracy Moebius de Carvalho ajudasse muitos judeus alemães a conseguirem vistos para o Brasil. Com a ajuda do cônsul-adjunto e escritor João Guimarães Rosa, com quem viria a se casar, Aracy contrariou o governo brasileiro e colocou seu trabalho em risco ao omitir o “J” nos passaportes dos judeus que a procuravam. Segundo ela mesmo testemunhou, chegou a alojar judeus em sua própria casa nos dias anteriores ao embarque no porto de Hamburgo. Aracy permaneceu na Alemanha até 1942, quando o Brasil rompeu relações diplomáticas com aquele país e passou a apoiar os Aliados. Aracy e Guimarães Rosa ficaram juntos até a morte deste, em 1967. Em 1982, a brasileira foi agraciada pelo Yad Vashem com o título de “Justa entre as Nações”. | - Joás Inacio חסידי אומות העולם

Brazil elects far-right president Jair Bolsonaro

Brazil elects far-right president Jair Bolsonaro Brazil elects far-right president Jair Bolsonaro https://ift.tt/eA8V8J

SAO PAULO — In some of his first words to the nation as president-elect, far-right politician Jair Bolsonaro has promised to defend the constitution and unite a bitterly divided populace.

His left-wing rival immediately vowed to mount a vigorous opposition, while rights groups warned against a rollback of civil liberties.

That juxtaposition underscored that the end of the election was not the end of acrimony and that myriad challenges lay ahead for Latin America’s largest nation.

Bolsonaro appeared to try to allay those concerns Sunday night, saying he would “pacify” Brazil following a race that revealed deep divisions and was repeatedly marred by violence. The candidate himself was stabbed and almost died while campaigning in early September, and there were numerous reports of politically motivated violence, especially directed at gay people.

“This country belongs to all of us, Brazilians by birth or by heart, a Brazil of diverse opinions, colours and orientations,” he said, reading off a sheet of paper in a live television address.

But in a sign of the challenges ahead, the hashtag EleNaoEMeuPresidente — HeIsNotMyPresident in Portuguese — was the top trending topic on Twitter in Brazil on Monday morning.

Blessed be the fruit…#PrayForBrazil #EleNaoEMeuPresidente pic.twitter.com/3xeTjyLzA2

Bolsonaro’s victory moved Brazil, the world’s fourth-largest democracy, sharply to the right after four consecutive elections in which candidates from the left-leaning Workers’ Party won.

Like other right-leaning leaders who have risen to power around the globe, Bolsonaro built his popularity on a mixture of often outrageous or offensive comments and hardline positions. And, like many, he is sure to face stiff pushback from groups concerned that his strong views will lead to policies that threaten democratic institutions.

Bolsonaro has frequently disparaged women, gays and blacks, praised torture and killings by police, and has said he would name military men to his Cabinet.

He often took to Twitter to lambaste the rival Workers’ Party as unethical and dangerous. In recent weeks, Brazilians were bombarded with WhatsApp messages that condemned Workers’ Party candidate Fernando Haddad, often making outrageous claims.

BRASIL! 🇧🇷👍🏻

— Jair Bolsonaro 1️⃣7️⃣ (@jairbolsonaro) October 28, 2018

Ultimately, Bolsonaro’s messages resonated with Brazilians hungry for change: He got just over 55 per cent of the votes Sunday, compared to right under 45 per cent for Haddad.

Haddad promised a fight while saying he would respect the country’s institutions.

“We have the responsibility to mount an opposition, putting national interests, the interests of the entire Brazilian people, above everything,” Haddad said in a speech to supporters. “Brazil has possibly never needed the exercise of citizenship more than right now.”

In a sign of how tense the race got, Haddad did not congratulate Bolsonaro and only on Monday morning did he wish him luck.

“I wish him success,” he wrote on Twitter. “Our country deserves the best.”

Presidente Jair Bolsonaro. Desejo-lhe sucesso. Nosso país merece o melhor. Escrevo essa mensagem, hoje, de coração leve, com sinceridade, para que ela estimule o melhor de todos nós. Boa sorte!

— Fernando Haddad 13 (@Haddad_Fernando) October 29, 2018

Amid the celebrations by Bolsonaro’s supporters, there were also reports of some clashes between his backers and opponents.

Among international leaders congratulating Bolsonaro was U.S. President Donald Trump, who tweeted Monday that he had “a very good conversation” with Brazil’s president-elect.

“We agreed that Brazil and the United States will work closely together on Trade, Military and everything else!,” Trump tweeted. “Excellent call, wished him congrats!”

Had a very good conversation with the newly elected President of Brazil, Jair Bolsonaro, who won his race by a substantial margin. We agreed that Brazil and the United States will work closely together on Trade, Military and everything else! Excellent call, wished him congrats!

— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) October 29, 2018

The judge who oversaw many of the cases in Brazil’s massive corruption investigation also wished Bolsonaro well.

“It is important to enact, with dialogue and tolerance, reforms to improve the economy and the integrity of the public administration, as well as restoring the population’s confidence in the political class,” Judge Sergio Moro wrote in a statement.

The rise of Bolsonaro, who cast himself as a political outsider despite a largely lacklustre 27-year career in Congress, parallels the emergence of hard-right leaders in many countries. But his extreme messages were rendered more palatable by a perfect storm in Brazil: widespread anger at the political class after years of corruption, an economy that has struggled to recover from a punishing recession and a surge in violence.

In particular, many Brazilians were furious with the Workers’ Party for its role in the graft scheme revealed by the “Operation Car Wash” investigation, which uncovered billions of dollars in bribes paid to politicians via inflated construction contracts.

Haddad struggled to build momentum with his promises of a return to the boom times by investing in health and education and reducing poverty. It didn’t help that the man who appointed Haddad as the party’s candidate, former President Luiz Inacio da Silva, is serving a 12-year sentence for a corruption conviction.

Bolsonaro’s candidacy raised serious concerns that he would roll back civil rights and weaken institutions in what remains a young democracy. He has frequently disparaged women, gays and blacks, and said he would name military men to his Cabinet.

Within minutes of his victory being declared, international civil rights groups expressed concerns. Human Rights Watch called on Brazil’s judiciary and other institutions to “resist any attempt to undermine human rights, the rule of law and democracy under Jair Bolsonaro’s government.”

Steve Schwartzman of the Environmental Defence Fund warned that Bolsonaro’s promises about the environment would be “dangerous to the planet.”

Bolsonaro has repeatedly said he would pull Brazil from the Paris agreement on climate change, though last week he backed off on that. He has also promised to cut environmental regulations and make Brazil friendlier to international investors.

The past few years in Brazil have been exceptionally turbulent. In 2016, then-President Dilma Rousseff of the Workers’ Party was impeached and removed from office on charges that many on the left felt were politically motivated. The economy suffered a two-year recession and is only now beginning to emerge, with growth stagnant and unemployment high.

Dozens of politicians and executives have been jailed in the corruption investigation.

Many observers had predicted a newcomer would emerge to harness the anti-establishment anger. Instead, support coalesced around Bolsonaro, who at the margins in Congress painted himself as just the strong man Brazil needed to dismantle a failing system.

Bolsonaro has promised to crack down on violent crime and drastically reduce the size of Brazil’s state. But many of the details of his positions remain unclear since he has largely conducted his campaign via blasts on social media. After he was stabbed, he declined to debate Haddad and gave interviews only to largely friendly media who rarely asked tough questions.

“Tomorrow we start a new country,” said Mario Marcondes, a 61-year-old pilot who gathered with other supporters outside Bolsonaro’s house. “This was like a soccer game, a dispute that is over. Now we will all know to unite.”

The Brazilian Beef Scandal and the Future of US Grass Fed Beef Dr. Mercola By Dr. Mercola Worldwide, we're seeing strong growth in organics and grass fed farming. As of 2016, the organic food sector accounted for 5.3 percent of total food sales in the U.S.1 We now also have a brand-new grass fed certification by the American Grassfed Association (AGA), which is the highest certification you can get for dairy, beef and poultry, including chickens, sheep and goats. In short, we're seeing a radically increased demand for healthier foods. A lot more people now know about the drawbacks of factory farmed beef and dairy, and are aware that when herbivores are grazed naturally, without hormones, antibiotics and other drugs, you end up with a healthier product. Unfortunately, the current food system still leaves a lot to be desired. Built around efficiency and profit, inevitable quality and safety deficiencies are par the course. International trade agreements also protect profits over safety and consumer ideals. While traceability is key for food safety, country of origin labeling (COOL) was rejected by the World Trade Organization (WTO) for being "discriminatory." In other words, you're not allowed to know where a food comes from simply because that might influence you to buy or not buy, depending on your preferences. The ramifications are presently evident in the beef industry, where tainted beef is being exported around the globe while local ranchers struggle to compete with bottom-priced imports. US Suspends Brazilian Beef Imports On June 22, 2017, the U.S. suspended imports of fresh beef from Brazil,2 the fifth largest beef exporter to the U.S. For the past two years, Brazil's Federal Police have conducted an investigation into the country's beef industry. According to investigators, Brazilian food inspectors accepted bribes, falsified sanitary permits and allowed expired meats to be sold. Nearly 1,900 politicians also received bribes to the tune of $186 million over the course of a few years, including former presidents Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva and Dilma Rousseff. Dozens of federal food inspectors have now been placed under arrest, and J&F Investimentos, the holding company of JBS SA, one of Brazil's largest meatpackers and a prime suspect in the corruption investigation, has agreed to pay $3.2 billion in fines.3 According to the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA), since March, 100 percent of Brazilian meat imports have been inspected before being allowed into the country. Normally, 1 percent of meat imports are turned away. In the case of Brazil, 11 percent were refused, equating to about 1.9 million pounds of beef.4 Among the problems discovered during inspection were abscesses in the meat — a problem Brazilian deputy agriculture minister Eumar Novacki claims is due to rare adverse reactions in some cattle to vaccines that prevent foot-and-mouth disease; reactions that pose no risk to public health.5 Not everyone's buying this excuse, though. As reported by Reuters:6 "The Agricultural Ministry's linkage of the abscesses to vaccines was questioned by some experts. Vaccines for foot-and-mouth disease are the No. 1 vaccines used in animals worldwide, said James Roth, director of the Center for Food Security and Public Health at Iowa State University … Roth said 'any injection into an animal might rarely produce an abscess' if the needle is dirty. However, '[I]f abscesses are showing up in the meat, there has to be a failure in the slaughter plant because those should be caught and removed' …" EU Struggles With Tainted Meat and Animal Feed The European Union (EU), which has also stepped up inspections of Brazilian beef, reports rejecting shipments due to the presence of E. coli. The Brazilian health inspectors' union, Nacional dos Auditores Fiscais Federais Agropecuários (ANFFA), blames the systemic failures on staffing cutbacks. While the number of meatpacking plants have doubled since 2002, the number of health inspectors has declined from 3,200 to 2,600 in that same time.7 Meanwhile, in March, the Brazilian government announced it will cut the Agriculture Ministry's budget by another 45 percent. But E.coli-tainted meat from Brazil is not the only trouble found in the EU. Chinese-made riboflavin (vitamin B-2) supplements for use in animal feed have also been found to contain genetically engineered (GE) bacteria, which is illegal in the EU. Making matters worse, the GE bacteria in question confers resistance to a number of different antibiotics, including chloramphenicol, used for infections such as meningitis, plague, cholera and typhoid fever.8 The tainted supplements first came to light in 2014. As reported by Independent Science News:9 "[R]iboflavin is now frequently produced by commercial fermentation using overproducing strains of GE bacteria. According to EU biosafety regulations, no GMO bacterial strain, nor any DNA, is allowed to be present in commercial supplements. However, the contaminated sample of riboflavin contained viable strains of the genetically modified organism Bacillus subtilis. The researchers cultured and tested the contaminating bacterium and subsequent DNA sequencing showed it to be a production strain. Further testing showed it to contain genomic DNA conferring resistance to the antibiotic chloramphenicol. In addition, the strain contained DNA extrachromosomal plasmids with other antibiotic resistance genes. These conferred resistance to the antibiotics ampicillin, kanamycin, bleomycin, tetracycline and erythromycin. Correspondence between German diplomats, Chinese authorities and the company subsequently established that these antibiotic resistance genes constituted key differences between the strains the company claimed to be using … Only the erythromycin and chloramphenicol resistance genes were acknowledged by the producer. Whether the altered strains had been used intentionally or were inadvertent contaminants is still not clear." Where Does Your Beef Come From? In all, the U.S. imports beef from 22 different countries totaling over 3 billion pounds in 2016. Australia, Canada and New Zealand top the list of countries supplying beef to the U.S., followed by Mexico and Brazil.10 Rank Country Total pounds imported 2016 Rank: 1 Country: Australia Total pounds imported 2016: 767 million Rank: 2 Country: Canada Total pounds imported 2016: 718 million Rank: 3 Country: New Zealand Total pounds imported 2016: 613 million Rank: 4 Country: Mexico Total pounds imported 2016: 493 million Rank: 5 Country: Brazil Total pounds imported 2016: 152.7 million When it comes to grass fed beef, as much as 80 percent is imported, most of which comes from Australia. Brazil is also a significant source of grass fed beef. A little-known fact that hides the country of origin is that as long as a piece of imported beef passes through a USDA-inspected plant, it can be labeled as a "Product of the USA." In other words, by importing entire carcasses and processing them in a U.S. facility, the imported meat suddenly becomes American. Even the USDA beef checkoff tax is being used to promote imported beef rather than U.S.-raised beef11 — this, despite the fact that the checkoff program12 (a mandatory program that requires cattle producers to pay a $1 fee per head of cattle sold) is supposed to be used for research and promotion of beef to benefit and support American cattle ranchers. Considering the steady growth of grass fed ranching in the U.S., why are we still importing the vast majority of it? One of the main reasons is because Australia and Brazil can produce it at a lower cost, as their climate allows for year-round grazing. In fact, in Australia, grass fed is the norm; 70 percent of the cattle there are raised on open pasture.13 According to a recent report by the Stone Barns Center for Food and Agriculture, "Back to Grass: The Market Potential for U.S. Grassfed Beef,"14 accurate labeling is imperative to "ensure that consumers are getting what they think they're buying." Not only may you be buying imported beef without knowing it, the grass fed beef you're buying may not be as wholesome as you expect it to be, thanks to weak standards. As noted by Jill Isenbarger, CEO of Stone Barns Center:15 "The U.S. market for grass fed beef has grown at 100 percent per year for the past four years, yet consumers don't realize that much of this beef is coming from cattle that haven't actually spent the whole of their lives on open pasture, eating real grass." Pasture-Raised Versus Grass Fed It's not easy being a consumer in today's food landscape. Labels that seem self-explanatory enough sometimes mean something else entirely, or nothing at all, as in the case of the "all-natural" label, which is basically meaningless and used as a marketing ploy more than anything else. When it comes to grass fed beef labels, there's plenty of confusion to go around, as well. As explained in the "Back to Grass" report:16 "The clearest distinction between grass fed and conventional beef occurs at the finishing stage. Grass fed cattle remain on pastures and are finished on a diet of predominantly grass or other forages. They grow more slowly and are typically slaughtered at 20 [to] 28 months of age. Meat from these animals is usually sold with a grass fed label approved by the [USDA] and sold into niche grass fed beef markets for a premium. However, the USDA's allowance of partial grass fed claims (e.g., '50 [percent] grass fed') and the absence of a requirement for on-farm inspection for grass fed claims mean that not all beef sold with a grass fed label necessarily follows these production standards. Some cattle are kept on pasture through the finishing phase, but their diet is supplemented with grains; these animals are 'pasture-raised' but not 100 [percent] grass fed. A striking development in recent years has been the emergence of 'grass feedlots,' where cattle are fed grass (often in the form of grass pellets) in confinement." The following graph illustrates the main differences between pasture-raised, pure grass fed, conventional and "grass feedlot"-type beef: Source: Back to Grass: The Market Potential for U.S. Grassfed Beef Why Authentic Grass Fed Beef Matters Getting clarity on this issue is important because these differences result in significantly different types of meat and environmental impacts. Mounting research shows regenerative grazing methods: • Improve human health by producing healthier meats. Compared to conventional beef, grass fed beef has: ✓ Significantly better omega-6 to omega-3 ratios ✓ Higher concentrations of conjugated linoleic acids (CLAs) ✓ Higher levels of antioxidants ✓ Better taste ✓ Lower risk of E. coli infection ✓ Lower risk of antibiotic-resistant bacteria • Improve animal welfare: Grass fed cattle are healthier and require few if any drug treatments • Protect the environment: Regenerative grazing systems help restore grasslands, build soil and protect water supplies, whereas the concentration of manure in and around feedlots pollute air, soil and water • Sequester carbon in the soil, thereby improving soil quality, offsetting cattle methane emissions and helping to mitigate rising Co2 levels in the atmosphere The report goes on to issue four specific action items to strengthen the U.S. grass fed beef industry: Focus on producing high-quality, pastured and grass-finished beef year-round. To do this, seasonal finishing products need to be made available across all regions of the U.S. Training and technical assistance is also needed Create stronger standards for the grass fed label and brand-building campaigns to educate consumers about American-raised grass fed beef Improve scale and aggregation in the grass fed supply chain, especially at the grass fed finisher level, to improve efficiency Build "well-managed, scaled-up finishing systems to produce grass fed beef at low cost." Doing so could bring grass fed beef closer to conventional feedlot beef prices Cattle Ranchers Fight for Country-of-Origin Labeling As mentioned earlier, the WTO ruled against the use of country-of-origin labeling back in 2014, saying COOL impeded trade between the U.S., Canada and Mexico, creating a "detrimental impact on the competitive opportunities" for Canadian and Mexican livestock. At the time, the American Meat Institute and North American Meat Association said:17 "The WTO decision upholding Canada's and Mexico's challenge to the U.S. COOL rule comes as no surprise. USDA's mandatory COOL rule is not only onerous and burdensome on livestock producers and meat packers and processors, it does not bring the U.S. into compliance with its WTO obligations. By being out of compliance, the U.S. is subject to retaliation from Canada and Mexico that could cost the U.S. economy billions of dollars." The USDA subsequently scrapped COOL in 2016, but now, ranchers are suing the USDA to reintroduce it, arguing the USDA's change violated the Meat Inspection Act, which requires slaughtered meat to be clearly marked if it comes from a country other than the U.S. By no longer requiring imported meats to be properly labeled, imported meats have been allowed to be sold as U.S. products, thereby misinforming consumers, putting national producers at a disadvantage and jeopardizing food safety. The lawsuit was filed by Public Justice on behalf of the Ranchers-Cattlemen Action Legal Fund, United Stockgrowers of America and the Cattle Producers of Washington. Public Justice attorney David Muraskin told Fox Business News:18 "Consumers understandably want to know where their food comes from. With this suit, we're fighting policies that put multinational corporations ahead of domestic producers and shroud the origins of our food supply in secrecy." Know Your Grass Fed Labels Ideally, the best way to ensure you're getting exactly what you pay for is to buy directly from a trusted farmer. Many are more than happy to give you a tour and explain the details of their operation. Your next best option is to know your labels. The American Grassfed Association (AGA) recently introduced much-needed grass fed standards and certification for American-grown grass fed beef and dairy,19 which will allow for greater transparency and conformity. Prior to this certification, dairy and beef could be sold as "grass fed" whether the cows ate solely grass, or received silage, hay or even grains during certain times. As reported by Organic Authority:20 "The new regulations are the product of a year's worth of collaboration amongst dairy producers like Organic Valley as well as certifiers like Pennsylvania Certified Organic and a team of scientists. 'We came up with a standard that's good for the animals, that satisfies what consumers want and expect when they see grass fed on the label, and that is economically feasible for farmers,' says AGA's communications director Marilyn Noble of the new regulations." AGA Grass Fed Standards Are Head and Neck Above the Rest The AGA grass fed logo is really the only one able to guarantee that the meat comes from animals that have: Been fed a 100 percent forage diet Never been confined in a feedlot Never received antibiotics or hormones Been born and raised on American family farms (remember, a vast majority of the grass fed meats sold in grocery stores are imported, and without COOL labeling, there's no telling where it came from or what standards were followed) There are a few other grass fed labels as well, but none are as comprehensive or as strict as the AGA's. These include: • Certified Grassfed by AGW (A Greener World):21 This standard is an addition to the Animal Welfare Approved standard for cattle, sheep, goats and bison. Animals can only be fed grass and other forages from weaning until slaughter, and animals must be raised on range or pasture for the duration of their lives. No growth hormones or sub-therapeutic antibiotics are permitted. The AGW grass fed label is available in the U.S. and Canada. • Pennsylvania Certified Organic (PCO) Grass-Fed: This label has standards for the kind of plants cows can eat. The following feeds are not allowed: grain or grain byproducts; corn kernel or corn kernel byproducts; cake or meal foodstuffs; concentrates; food processing byproducts or waste; small grain or corn allowed to mature past the vegetative state and sprouted grains. PCO certification is an optional add-on certification for operations that are also certified organic under the USDA National Organic Program.22 Why Most Grass Fed Labels Cannot Be Trusted The AGA standard officially launched in February, a month after USDA's Agricultural Marketing Service (AMS) rescinded its official standards for the grass fed beef claim.23 This means the USDA no longer has any grass fed standards for producers to follow. The USDA's Food Safety and Inspection Service (FSIS), which approves meat labels in general, still approves grass fed label claims. However, producers of grass fed meats are free to define their own standards! According to the AGA, "FSIS is only considering the feeding protocol in their label approvals — other issues such as confinement; use of antibiotics and hormones; and the source of the animals, meat, and dairy products will be left up to the producer." In other words, a producer of "grass fed beef" could theoretically confine the animals and feed them antibiotics and hormones and still put a grass fed label on the meat as long as the animals were also fed grass at some point. The take-home message here is that, unless it's an AGA grass fed label, you really won't know what you're getting. No other grass fed certification offers the same comprehensive assurances as the AGA, and no other grass fed program ensures compliance using third-party audits. Remember: Don't Overeat Meat, Even Organic American Grass Fed While most people enjoy eating animal protein and find it delicious, it is vitally important to remember to avoid eating too much. The literature is fairly clear that those who eat excessive amounts of animal protein will die prematurely, even if it is the highest quality American grass fed organic. It would be wise to limit your serving size to 2 ounces if you are a small woman or child, or 4 ounces for a large male, and only eat it a few times a week. Intakes above this are likely to activate the mTOR pathway and may have unhealthy consequences.

Num dia de trevas Sem cor sem beleza A esposa querida Morreu, se apagou. Vivia sombria Imersa em tristeza No meio das águas E da correnteza Num dia de chuvas A morte a levou. A minha filhinha Mais nova e travessa A tia querida No braço a levou. Eu quase enlouqueço Ou perco a cabeça E as nuvens mais negras As trevas mais densas Aos poucos, aos poucos O tempo apagou. Meu filho mais velho Seguiu rumo incerto E a filha mais velha O vento a levou. Só resta no mundo Meu filho Roberto Roberto Ventura Que Deus me deixou. Porém, de repente, Num dia nublado Meu filho querido Saiu por aí Tocando uma flauta De bambu queimado O pobre inocente Tão triste e isolado Tocando uma flauta Saiu sem destino Sem rumo e sem fim. Agora pergunto Aos ventos que sopram Vindos do Himalaia Ou dos Pireneus Agora pergunto Cm os olhos molhados Dizei-me senhores Que é dos meus filhos? Dizei-me Senhor Onde anda Roberto Aquele meu filho Que andava calado E às vezes cantava Tão desconsolado Dizei me Senhor Onde anda Ventura Com a sua inocência Meu Deus, que tristeza! Eu morro de dor.

Amor de Peixe ❤️🐠 

Amor é uma palavra que na nossa cultura quase perdeu o sentido. Há uma história muito interessante, sobre o Rabino de Kotzk (Menachem Mendel, uma personalidade hasidica). Ele passou por um jovem, que estava claramente se deliciando com um prato de peixe que comia. Então, ele disse ao jovem: “Por que você está comendo esse peixe?” O jovem respondeu: “Porque eu amo peixe!” Ao que o Rabino lhe retrucou: “Ah, você ama o peixe e por isso você o tirou da água, o matou e o ferveu? Não me diga que ama o peixe. Você ama a você mesmo. E porque o peixe é gostoso, em sua opinião, você o tirou da água, o matou e o ferveu”. Muito do que se chama de “amor” é “amor de peixe”. E então… Um casal de Jovens se apaixona, os jovens se apaixonam, o que isso significa? Isso significa que ele viu nessa mulher, alguém que ele creu que poderia prover todas as suas necessidades emocionais e físicas, e ela sentiu que esse homem poderia lhe fazer o mesmo. Isso foi amor. Mas ambos estão olhando para as próprias necessidades. Não é amor um pelo outro. A outra pessoa se torna um veículo para a minha satisfação. Muito do que chamam de “amor” é “amor de peixe”. E um amor externo não é sobre o que vou receber, mas sobre o que eu vou dar. Havia um professor de ética, o Rabino Dessler, que disse que as pessoas cometem um erro grave ao pensar que você dá àqueles que você ama. Mas a verdadeira resposta é: você ama aqueles a quem você dá. E seu argumento é, que se eu dou algo a você, eu me investi em você. E já que o amor-próprio é algo natural, todos amam a si mesmos, agora que parte de mim está em você, há uma parte de mim em você que eu amo. Então, o amor verdadeiro é um amor que “dá”, não que “recebe”. (transcrito de um vídeo do Rabino Dr. Abraham J. Twerski)
