“A morte de Sebastião foi testemunhada, declarada, documentada por múltiplas fontes, e oficializada por um juiz português. Seu corpo foi recuperado e identificado no dia 5, enterrado, desenterrado, verificado e trasladado umas 3 vezes — duas só dentro do Mosteiro dos Jerónimos. Mas quem garante?”

Brasil muda posição sobre banir plásticos e se aproxima de produtores de petróleo
País não apoiou nenhuma das propostas que regulamentam a produção do material
Rumo à COP30: “O Brasil também tem sido criticado por negociadores de diferentes blocos por uma postura opaca e confusa, de acordo com pelo menos onze delegados de países em desenvolvimento e também desenvolvidos, além das nações mais afetadas pela poluição plástica.”

Após STF exigir transparência, comissões da Câmara aprovam emendas em menos de um minuto e sem revelar padrinhos
Presidente da Câmara, Hugo Motta defendeu em reunião com representantes dos colegiados mais velocidade para os repasses
O ótimo dessa matéria de O Globo é dar nomes a vários bois.
“A Comissão de Integração Nacional, presidida pela dep. Yandra Moura (União-SE), foi ainda mais rápida. Foram apenas 8 segundos para aprovar as indicações, também ainda desconhecidas. O colegiado tem um caixa de R$ 1,181 bilhão neste ano.”

Câncer de pulmão cresce entre mulheres e não fumantes e acende alerta entre cientistas (Notícia de presente)
Efeitos da poluição ambiental são apontados como uma das principais causas para aumento da doença entre não tabagistas
“Tabagismo de segunda mão é mais maléfico para mulheres porque elas parecem ter menor capacidade de reparar danos feitos ao DNA por essas substâncias. O mesmo [vale para] poluição ambiental. Há uma diferença entre os sexos nesses mecanismos de reparo, mas ainda não sabemos o porquê.”

A touch of poetry in Parliament
The advent of televised parliamentary sessions was like a ray of accessibility that pierced the thick cloud of political opacity.
Poetry, by its very nature, is metaphorical and concise, conveying layers of meaning in relatively few words carefully chosen by the poet. When I employ poetry in my speeches, I seek to harness the power of metaphor and emotion to communicate ideas that would require hours of prose and be dry.”

Outro detalhe é que a matéria precisa usar vídeo de agência de notícias TURCA já que Israel impede jornalistas de documentar o conflito. (O que vem é de jornalistas palestinos trancados lá dentro.)

Trump Family–Backed World Liberty Financial Sets Up $1.5 Billion Crypto Treasury
World Liberty Financial has struck a deal that will turn a little-known company into a vehicle for betting on the price of its crypto coin.
“The funding from the World Liberty Financial investment is being used to buy the product of World Liberty Financial: the token. What you are effectively doing is building a holding company whose sole objective is to create a treasury that can inflate the market capitalization of WLF's token.”

This is how the new BLS reports will look like: “The reports, which cover 198 countries and territories over the whole of 2024, have seen significant details cut, with many sections removed and country entries often half the length, if not far shorter, compared with previous years.”

No experts in the room: Donald Trump to meet Vladimir Putin after loss of Russia specialists
Reduction in federal workforce has hollowed out the number of knowledgeable officials in Washington
‘“It’s safe to say that Trump does not have a single policymaking person who knows Russia and Ukraine advising him,” said Eric Rubin, a former career diplomat who served as US ambassador to Bulgaria during Trump’s first term.’

“How many zombies do you know?” Using indirect survey methods to measure alien attacks and outbreaks of the undead
Andrew Gelman∗ George A. Romero† 12 Mar 2010
Abstract
The zombie menace has so far been studied only qualitatively or through the use of mathematical models without empirical content. We propose to use a new tool in survey research to allow zombies to be studied indirectly without risk to the interviewers.
“We originally wrote this article in Word, but then we converted it to Latex to make it look more like science.”
