The finest old manuscripts are no longer the exclusive domain of scholars and wealthy collectors. Now, thanks to Octavo Corp. of Palo Alto, California, anyone with a computer and CD-ROM drive can enjoy priceless works by Galileo, Shakespeare, Ben Franklin and other greats exactly as they appear in the originals - complete with watermarks, worn pages and wormholes. Says Richard Kuhta, librarian of the Folger Shakespeare Library in Washington: "You can do everything but smell the book". What's more, readers can instantly search these digital copies, unlike the originals, to find a word or phrase. Co-founded by Adobe Systems chief executive John Warnock, an avid rare-book collector, Octavo has so far published 15 titles. Others soon to come include Lewis Carroll's Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland and the Wycliffe New Testament (the first English translation). Octavo CD- ROMs are available at

The Lass of Aughrim (version 2)

to my fellas in short story
(i liked this version much more, although the lyrics might not match)

A traditional Irish song in the film: The Dead (1987), based on the same name story in the book "Dubliners" by James Joyce

If you'll be the lass of Aughrim
As I am taking you mean to be
Tell me the first token
That passed between you and me

O don't you remember
That night on yon lean hill
When we both met together
Which I am sorry now to tell

The rain falls on my yellow locks
And the dew it wets my skin;
My babe lies cold within my arms;
Lord Gregory, let me in

‘Robocop’ to The Rescue

Beijing tries new tactics for protest control

WHO CAN FORGET THE IMAGES OF 1989, when country-bumpkin Chinese

soldiers in rumpled uniforms gunned down students on Tiananmen Square?

It won’t happen that way again. On the anniversary of the June 4 crackdown,

unrest is simmering across China, and Beijing has unveiled a modern new look

and tacit new rules for what is now the capital’s elite corps of antiriot police.

Here’s the strategy:

Buy peace if you can. When 2,000 metalworkers who had not been paid in

up to two years blocked highways and clashed with police in the “Rust Belt”

city of Liaoyang in May, authorities retreated. Quiet returned after the deputy

mayor promised that wages and pensions would be paid soon.

Let others do the dirty work. Since last summer, devotees of the banned

Falun Gong sect have come from all over China to stage silent protests in

Beijing. Now Beijing is asking provincial police to come to the capital and

round up their own locals.

Smother student protests with kindness. Last month 2,000 students

began protesting an alleged cover-up of the rape and murder of a female

student at Beijing university. Authorities banned a memorial service, then

reversed themselves and devoted a corner of the campus to commemorations.

If all else fails, scare ‘em. Last week Beijing unveiled black high-tech

armored uniforms, imported from France at up to $2,700 apiece. The

futuristic “Robocop” riot gear provides “head-to-toe protection,” according to

the state-run Beijing Evening News. They resist water, flame, “even Molotov

cocktails.” But if it comes to that, the new strategy has fallen short.

Newsweek June 12, 2000

01 De acordo com o texto,

a) as autoridades enfrentaram o protesto dos 2000 metalúrgicos com austeridade.

b) Beijing está pedindo que a polícia da província venha até a capital e prenda os manifestantes.

c) a China se recusa a utilizar métodos modernos de combate a motins.

d) a China pretende combater os protestos estudantis com violência.

e) o governo chinês bloqueou estradas para impedir os manifestantes metalúrgicos.

02 Segundo o texto,

a) as autoridades chinesas organizaram um serviço memorial em homenagem à estudante

vítima de estupro e assassinato.

b) a seita “Falun Gong” é bem vista pelo governo chinês.

c) o governo chinês pretende punir os rebeldes que se manifestaram contra a seita “Falun Gong”.

d) na comemoração de 4 de junho a paz reina no território chinês.

e) as autoridades dedicaram um local do “campus” para as comemorações

03 De acordo com o texto, 2000 metalúrgicos:

a) manifestaram-se contra as condições precárias de trabalho.

b) reivindicaram aumento salarial.

c) protestaram por não receberem salários há dois anos.

d) foram gravemente agredidos pelas autoridades chinesas.

e) protestaram contra a jornada de trabalho.

04 Assinale a alternativa que corresponde à voz passiva da frase “Authorities

banned a memorial service…”.

a) a memorial service is banned.

b) a memorial service has been banned.

c) a memorial service is being banned.

d) a memorial service was banned.

e) a memorial service was being banned.

05) Se na frase: “ the new strategy has fallen short.” Estivesse no plural, os itens sublinhados ficariam:

a) Inalterados

b) News strategies have

c) New strategys has

d) New strategies have

e) News strategies have

How about you?

AGORA PASSARAM DOS LIMITES!!

Os militantes do Hamas, através da Al-Aqsa TV, copiaram um Mickey Mouse para passar mensagens às CRIANÇAS que APARENTEMENTE incitam-nas à resistência armada!!
Isso eh mesmo o fim do mundo!!
Bem, digo aparentemente pq as legendas em inglês que aparecem no video são de uma agência/ONG Israelense (Memritv.org), ou seja, é preciso ter cuidado pq a fonte é parte interessada na disputa. Especialistas da CNN demonstraram que algumas frases não estão corretamente traduzidas para o inglês tornando assim partes da tradução mais tendenciosas e perigosas do que realmente parecem.
Agora, convenhamos, usar programas e ícones infantis para incitar as crianças à luta armada, violência, ao consumo de fast-food, armas brinquedo, salgadinhos, show dos RBD (oops!), brinquedos totalmente descartáveis, etc, é simplesmente BRUTAL! Que bom que aqui no Brasil nossas crianças estão livres de tudo isso...

ou será que não...

Hometown Bagdad

copied from: http://healingiraq.blogspot.com/

Adel, one of the Hometown Baghdad Iraqi videobloggers, recklessly hides a video camera in his bag and goes out to film the deserted, rubbish littered streets of his neighbourhood, a Sunni stronghold in Baghdad. The guy deserves a medal for this. If he were caught sneakily filming like that by insurgents or militias, he would be executed on the spot for being a suspected "spy" for either side.
