A Hawaii woman in a wheelchair has filed a lawsuit against American Airlines after she says
she was forced to crawl onto a plane. Theresa Purcell says she informed the airline prior to
her flight that she would need a wheelchair ramp to get on the plane. When she arrived at
the gate, agents told her that they couldn’t set up a ramp shortly before the plane’s
departure.

A wonderful sting
a poem by David P. Leverett
This feeling is like a wonderful sting.
I want this feeling to hold me captive.
I wouldn't give this up, not even for all four seasons to be spring.
It doesn't need to be masked as attractive,
This unstable beautiful pain is mine, its what I want, what I need!
My happiness continually gains,
This is great. Something this good cannot be greed!
I'm glad to leave them, I found a better lain.
This I intend to keep.
No one else can have it, its mine!
Its mine when I'm awake, its mine when I'm asleep!
What's going on. This feeling is no longer a straight line.
I'm trapped in this bind, I no longer feel fine,
and now, I'm alone without a sign.

Junk food doesn't only make you fat, it makes you lazy 
According to a recent study by researchers at the University of California Los Angeles, a
diet rich in processed food and fat leads not only to excess weight but also to less
motivation. 
Researchers found that rats on a junk food diet were significantly fatter than rats on a
healthy diet. But the rats with the unhealthy diet also were less active and mentally
slower. 
"Our data suggest that diet-induced obesity is a cause, rather than an effect, of laziness.
Either the highly processed diet causes fatigue or the diet causes obesity, which causes
fatigue", says lead researcher Aaron Blaisdell. 
Adaptado de: FIRGER, Jessica. Junk food makes you lazy, not just fat, study suggests.

Why do men have Adam’s Apple*? 
 
Actually, both men and women have Adam’s apple. In medical terms the Adam’s apple is
called a thyroid cartilage. The reason a man’s Adam’s apple is larger than a woman’s is
because his (1) larynx is larger to accommodate his (2) longer vocal cords. By the way, it (3)
is men’s longer vocal cords that give them (4) deeper voices. A second reason, which (5)
female readers may not like, is because women have more fat in their (6) necks, which hides
their (7) Adam’s apple. 
 
The name Adam’s apple was taken from the Biblical story of Adam and Eve. As the story
goes, a piece of the apple that Eve had given Adam to eat became lodged in his (8) throat.
From then on, Adam and all his (9) male descendants had an enlarged larynx as a symbol of
Adam’s shame.

Rethinking the rework cycle 
 
Abstract 
How to manage a project effectively in order to achieve the proposed goals? The managers
need to understand the dynamic of the projects in order to take the right decisions. One good
way to understand this dynamic is by means of understanding a model of a project. This
paper reviews the Cooper's rework model, with a different perspective. We will analyze the
role of clients and suppliers in the project. 
 
Key Words: Rework, Systems Dynamics, Project Management. 
 
1. Introduction 
Cooper´s pioneer article on rework cycle (Cooper, 1993-a) brought a new understanding of
the fundamental aspects of project management. The rework model was successfully used
as basis of development of complex systems dynamics simulation software. Those software
were used to model complex projects (Cooper, 1997) from many different fields, like as
shipbuilding, aerospace, software systems, power plants. They were very useful to help the
managers to have a better understanding of the problems that projects were facing and to
bring to surface their mental models and, hence, to take important decisions. The main goal
of this article is to present another view the rework cycle. The core of the modified rework
cycle model is detailed and the role of the clients and suppliers in the rework model are
discussed. 
 
2. Cooper´s Model: a starting point for the discussion of the rework cycle 
Cooper´s article made clear the importance of rework in projects. It shows that part of the
work that was considered done has defects, and those defects will remain undiscovered for
some time. When the rework is discovered, it joins to the work to de done, creating delays
and additional costs to the project. This model is quite good and broad and it is indeed very
useful to develop systems dynamics models (Figure 1). 
 
However, this model doesn’t show the role of the clients and suppliers in the rework cycle. 
Next topic, it will be presented a new approach for this model in order to cover those aspects.

'Primitiveness' in Language 
 
'Primitive' is a word that is often used ill-advisedly in discussions of language. Many people
think that 'primitive' is indeed a term to be applied to languages, though only to some
languages, and not usually to the language they themselves speak. They might agree in
calling 'primitive' those uses of language that concern greetings, grumbles and commands,
but they would probably insist that these were especially common in the so-called 'primitive
languages'. These are misconceptions that we must quickly clear from our minds. 
 
So far as we can tell, all human languages are equally complete and perfect as instruments
of communication: that is, every language appears to be as well equipped as any other to
say the things its speakers want to say. It may or may not be appropriate to talk about
primitive peoples or cultures, but that is another matter. Certainly, not all groups of people are
equally competent in nuclear physics or psychology or the cultivation of rice or the engraving
of Benares brass. But this is not the fault of their language. The Eskimos can speak about
snow with a great deal more precision and subtlety than we can in English, but this is not
because the Eskimo language (one of those sometimes mis-called 'primitive') is inherently
more precise and subtle than English. This example does not bring to light a defect in
English, a show of unexpected 'primitiveness'. The position is simply and obviously that the
Eskimos and the English live in different environments. The English language would be just
as rich in terms for different kinds of snow, presumably, if the environments in which English
was habitually used made such distinction important. 
 
Similarly, we have no reason to doubt that the Eskimo language could be as precise and
subtle on the subject of motor manufacture or cricket if these topics formed part of the
Eskimos' life. For obvious historical reasons, Englishmen in the nineteenth century could not
talk about motorcars with the minute discrimination which is possible today: cars were not a
part of their culture. But they had a host of terms for horse-drawn vehicles which send us,
puzzled, to a historical dictionary when we are reading Scott or Dickens. How many of us
could distinguish between a chaise, a landau, a victoria, a brougham, a coupe, a gig, a
diligence, a whisky, a calash, a tilbury, a carriole, a phaeton, and a clarence? 
 
The discussion of 'primitiveness', incidentally, provides us with a good reason for sharply and
absolutely distinguishing human language from animal communication, because there is no
sign of any intermediate stage between the two. Whether we examine the earliest records of
any language, or the present-day language of some small tribe in a far-away place, we come
no nearer to finding a stage of human language more resembling animal communication and
more 'primitive' than our own. In general, as has been said, any language is as good as any
other to express what its speakers want to say. An East African finds Swahili as convenient,
natural and complete as an East Londoner finds English. In general the Yorkshire
Dalesman's dialect is neither more nor less primitive or ill-fitted to its speaker's wants than
Cockney is for the Londoner's. We must always beware the temptation to adopt a naive
parochialism which makes us feel that someone else's language is less pleasant or less
effective an instrument than our own. 
 
This is not to say that an individual necessarily sounds as pleasant or as effective as he
might be, when using his language, but we must not confuse a language with an individual's
ability to use it. Nor are we saying that one language has no deficiencies as corn-pared with
another. The English words 'home' and 'gentleman' have no exact counterparts in French, for
example. These are tiny details in which English may well be thought to have the advantage
over French, but a large-scale comparison would not lead to the conclusion that English was
the superior language, since it would reveal other details in which the converse was true.
Some years ago it came as something of a shock to us that we had no exact word for
translating the name that General de Gaulle had given to his party - Rassemblement du
Peuple Francais. The B.B.C. for some time used the word 'rally', and although this scarcely
answers the purpose it is a rather better translation of 'rassemblement' than either of the
alternatives offered by one well-known French - English dictionary, 'muster' and 'mob'. 
 
The more we consider the question, then, the less reasonable does it seem to call any
language 'inferior', let alone 'primitive'. The Sanskrit of the Rig-Veda four thousand years ago
was as per-fect an instrument for what its users wanted to say as its modern descendant,
Hindi, or as English.

Man is covered with bees 
 
For most of us, this is the stuff nightmares are made of – being covered head to toe with
bees, 1.1 million bees! 
A Chinese man set a new world record on Monday by covering himself with 109.05 kilograms
of bees. 
Gao Bingguo, a 55-year-old from the Shandong Province of China has been a beekeeper for
over 30 years. He was helped by his fellow beekeepers who poured large balls of bees from
hundreds of hives to his body. In order to attract even more bees, they attached a dozen
queen bees as well. In an hour, bees weighing 109 kilos had covered him, breaking the 83.5-
kilo record set by another Chinese beekeeper, Zhang Wei. According to experts, 10,000
bees weigh approximately one kilo, so it's estimated Gao’s body was covered by about 1.1
million bees. Not to be tried at home!

Wearable Books 
 
Traditionally, authors use words to create emotions in their readers. Researchers at
Massachusetts Institute of Technology have created a new wearable book to enhance this
experience. It allows the reader to feel the protagonists emotions physically. Using a
combination of sensors, the book triggers vibration patterns through a special vest. The vest
also contains a personal heating device to change skin temperature and airbags, which
tighten or loosen it. Its the first ever book that can give the reader a virtual hug.
