    They rose up like men. We saw them. Like men they stood.

    We shouldn’t have been anywhere near that place. Like most farmland outside Lotus, Georgia, this here one had plenty scary warning signs. The threats hung from wire mesh fences with wooden stakes every fifty or so feet. But when we saw a crawl space that some animal had dug—a coyote maybe, or a coon dog—we couldn’t resist. Just kids we were. The grass was shoulder high for her and waist high for me so, looking out for snakes, we crawled through it on our bellies. The reward was worth the harm grass juice and clouds of gnats did to our eyes, because there right in front of us, about fifty yards off, they stood like men. Their raised hooves crashing and striking, their manes tossing back from wild white eyes. They bit each other like dogs but when they stood, reared up on their hind legs, their forelegs around the withers of the other, we held our breath in wonder. One was rust-colored, the other deep black, both sunny with sweat. The neighs were not as frightening as the silence following a kick of hind legs into the lifted lips of the opponent. Nearby, colts and mares, indifferent, nibbled grass or looked away. Then it stopped. The rust-colored one dropped his head and pawed the ground while the winner loped off in an arc, nudging the mares before him.

    As we elbowed back through the grass looking for the dug-out place, avoiding the line of parked trucks beyond, we lost our way. Although it took forever to re-sight the fence, neither of us panicked until we heard voices, urgent but low. I grabbed her arm and put a finger to my lips. Never lifting our heads, just peeping through the grass, we saw them pull a body from a wheelbarrow and throw it into a hole already waiting. One foot stuck up over the edge and quivered, as though it could get out, as though with a little effort it could break through the dirt being shoveled in. We could not see the faces of the men doing the burying, only their trousers; but we saw the edge of a spade drive the jerking foot down to join the rest of itself. When she saw that black foot with its creamy pink and mud-streaked sole being whacked into the grave, her whole body began to shake. I hugged her shoulders tight and tried to pull her trembling into my own bones because, as a brother four years older, I thought I could handle it. The men were long gone and the moon was a cantaloupe by the time we felt safe enough to disturb even one blade of grass and move on our stomachs, searching for the scooped-out part under the fence. When we got home we expected to be whipped or at least scolded for staying out so late, but the grown-ups did not notice us. Some disturbance had their attention.

    Since you’re set on telling my story, whatever you think and whatever you write down, know this: I really forgot about the burial. I only remembered the horses. They were so beautiful. So brutal. And they stood like men.

    Woman in India admits poisoning six family members with cyanide

    Murders took place over 14-year period and each victim ate a meal prepared by the killer


    A woman in the southern Indian state of Kerala has confessed to poisoning six members of her family over a 14-year period by adding cyanide to their food.
    Police began investigating earlier this year when the brother-in-law of 47-year-old suspect Jolly Thomas became suspicious that she may have forged his parents’ will. 
    Authorities discovered that Thomas had been at the scene of all six deaths, and that each death had occurred after eating a meal she had prepared. Up to that point the deaths had not been treated as suspicious because of the timeframe.
    Thomas, a popular member of the community in Kozhikode, was allegedly motivated by wanting control of the family finances and property, police said.
    According to police, the first poisoning was of Thomas’s mother-in-law, who died in 2002 after eating mutton soup. In 2008, her-father-in-law died, followed by her husband in 2011, who police said died after eating rice and curry. An autopsy conducted on his body at the time confirmed poisonous substances in his stomach, but police treated his death as suicide.
    Thomas’s husband’s uncle was then allegedly given coffee laced with cyanide as punishment for insisting that a postmortem be carried out on his nephew.
    In 2014, police said Thomas killed the two-year-old daughter of her dead husband’s cousin, Scaria Shaju. The cousin’s wife was then killed in 2016. A year later Thomas and Shaju married.
    Shaju told police he had no idea that Thomas was behind his wife and daughter’s death, but he has been arrested along with a third person.
    On Friday, police exhumed remains from the local cemetery and said that they confirmed cyanide poisoning in each of the deaths. On Monday, they said Thomas confessed to all the murders.

    TEXTO 2

                                              VI

          Para entenderes bem o que é a morte e a vida, basta contar-te como morreu minha avó.

          — Como foi?

          — Senta-te.

          Rubião obedeceu, dando ao rosto o maior interesse possível, enquanto Quincas Borba continuava a andar.

          — Foi no Rio de Janeiro, começou ele, defronte da Capela Imperial, que era então Real, em dia de grande festa; minha avó saiu, atravessou o adro, para ir ter à cadeirinha, que a esperava no Largo do Paço. Gente como formiga. O povo queria ver entrar as grandes senhoras nas suas ricas traquitanas. No momento em que minha avó saía do adro para ir à cadeirinha, um pouco distante, aconteceu espantar-se uma das bestas de uma sege; a besta disparou, a outra imitou-a, confusão, tumulto, minha avó caiu, e tanto as mulas como a sege passaram-lhe por cima. Foi levada em braços para uma botica da Rua Direita, veio um sangrador, mas era tarde; tinha a cabeça rachada, uma perna e o ombro partidos, era toda sangue; expirou minutos depois.

          — Foi realmente uma desgraça, disse Rubião.

          — Não.

          — Não?

          — Ouve o resto. Aqui está como se tinha passado o caso. O dono da sege estava no adro, e tinha fome, muita fome, porque era tarde, e almoçara cedo e pouco. Dali pôde fazer sinal ao cocheiro; este fustigou as mulas para ir buscar o patrão. A sege no meio do caminho achou um obstáculo e derribou-o; esse obstáculo era minha avó. O primeiro ato dessa série de atos foi um movimento de conservação: Humanitas tinha fome. Se em vez de minha avó, fosse um rato ou um cão, é certo que minha avó não morreria, mas o fato era o mesmo; Humanitas precisa comer. Se em vez de um rato ou de um cão, fosse um poeta, Byron ou Gonçalves Dias diferia o caso no sentido de dar matéria a muitos necrológios; mas o fundo subsistia. O universo ainda não parou por lhe faltarem alguns poemas mortos em flor na cabeça de um varão ilustre ou obscuro; mas Humanitas (e isto importa, antes de tudo) Humanitas precisa comer.

          Rubião escutava, com a alma nos olhos, sinceramente desejoso de entender; mas não dava pela necessidade a que o amigo atribuía a morte da avó. Seguramente o dono da sege, por muito tarde que chegasse à casa, não morria de fome, ao passo que a boa senhora morreu de verdade, e para sempre. Explicou-lhe, como pôde, essas dúvidas, e acabou perguntando-lhe:

          — E que Humanitas é esse?

          — Humanitas é o princípio. Mas não, não digo nada, tu não és capaz de entender isto, meu caro Rubião; falemos de outra coisa.

          — Diga sempre.

          Quincas Borba, que não deixara de andar, parou alguns instantes.

          — Queres ser meu discípulo?

          — Quero.

          — Bem, irás entendendo aos poucos a minha filosofia; no dia em que a houveres penetrado inteiramente, ah! nesse dia terás o maior prazer da vida, porque não há vinho que embriague como a verdade. Crê-me, o Humanitismo é o remate das coisas; e eu, que o formulei, sou o maior homem do mundo. Olha, vês como o meu bom Quincas Borba está olhando para mim? Não é ele, é Humanitas...

          — Mas que Humanitas é esse?

          — Humanitas é o principio. Há nas coisas todas certa substância recôndita e idêntica, um princípio único, universal, eterno, comum, indivisível e indestrutível, — ou, para usar a linguagem do grande Camões:

          Uma verdade que nas coisas anda,

          Que mora no visíbil e invisíbil. 

          Pois essa sustância ou verdade, esse princípio indestrutível é que é Humanitas. Assim lhe chamo, porque resume o universo, e o universo é o homem. Vais entendendo?

          — Pouco; mas, ainda assim, como é que a morte de sua avó...

          — Não há morte. O encontro de duas expansões, ou a expansão de duas formas, pode determinar a supressão de uma delas; mas, rigorosamente, não há morte, há vida, porque a supressão de uma é a condição da sobrevivência da outra, e a destruição não atinge o princípio universal e comum. Daí o carácter conservador e benéfico da guerra. Supõe tu um campo de batatas e duas tribos famintas. As batatas apenas chegam para alimentar uma das tribos, que assim adquire forças para transpor a montanha e ir à outra vertente, onde há batatas em abundância; mas, se as duas tribos dividirem em paz as batatas do campo, não chegam a nutrir-se suficientemente e morrem de inanição. A paz, nesse caso, é a destruição; a guerra é a conservação. Uma das tribos extermina a outra e recolhe os despojos. Daí a alegria da vitória, os hinos, aclamações, recompensas públicas e todos os demais efeitos das ações bélicas. Se a guerra não fosse isso, tais demonstrações não chegariam a dar-se, pelo motivo real de que o homem só comemora e ama o que lhe é aprazível ou vantajoso, e pelo motivo racional de que nenhuma pessoa canoniza uma ação que virtualmente a destrói. Ao vencido, ódio ou compaixão; ao vencedor, as batatas.

          — Mas a opinião do exterminado?

          — Não há exterminado. Desaparece o fenômeno; a substância é a mesma. Nunca viste ferver água? Hás de lembrar-te que as bolhas fazem-se e desfazem-se de contínuo, e tudo fica na mesma água. Os indivíduos são essas bolhas transitórias.

          — Bem; a opinião da bolha...

          — Bolha não tem opinião. Aparentemente, há nada mais contristador que uma dessas terríveis pestes que devastam um ponto do globo? E, todavia, esse suposto mal é um benefício, não só porque elimina os organismos fracos, incapazes de resistência, como porque dá lugar à observação, à descoberta da droga curativa. A higiene é filha de podridões seculares; devemo-la a milhões de corrompidos e infectos. Nada se perde, tudo é ganho. Repito, as bolhas ficam na água. Vês este livro? É Dom Quixote. Se eu destruir o meu exemplar, não elimino a obra, que continua eterna nos exemplares subsistentes e nas edições posteriores. Eterna e bela, belamente eterna, como este mundo divino e supradivino.

    (ASSIS, Machado de. Quincas Borba. 18. ed. São Paulo: Ática, 2011. p. 26-28.)

    TEXTO 5

                                 Raios de sol ao meio

          Mais uma vez ele aparecia na minha frente como se tivesse vindo do nada. Seus olhos eram grandes e negros e pareciam ter nascido bem antes dele. Suas espinhas se agigantavam conforme o ângulo de que eram vistas. Sua orelha era algo indescritível. Além de orelha ela era disforme, meio redonda e meio achatada nas pontas. Ela era meio várias coisas. Uma orelha monstro. A boca era alguma coisa que só estava ali para cumprir seu espaço no rosto. Era boca porque estava exatamente no lugar da boca. E era a segunda vez que ele me mobilizava. Mas no conjunto de elementos díspares reinava uma sensualidade ímpar que me tirava de mim sem que eu soubesse navegar no outro que em mim surgia. De mim não sabia entender o que emanava para ele em toda a sua estranha vastidão de patologia visual. No meio sol da meia-noite as coisas se anunciaram e antes que a madrugada avançasse a lua em sua metade escondida ardeu com um olhar malicioso e sorriu.

    TEXTO 7

          A gota que fez transbordar a caixa da paciência de vovó foi um casalzinho folgado. Cansada da algazarra, do som da sanfona, que por três dias e três noites vinha balançando os alicerces da Casa, vovó foi procurar refúgio na paz de seu quarto. Que paz que nada, ali também a festa rolava solta. Abismada, ela viu um casalzinho iniciando sua lua de mel, imaginem onde? Na cama de vovó! Pena que o urinol estivesse vazio. Furiosa, Ana Vitória pensou em apelar para o chicote. Depois seu pensamento voltou para os primeiros dias de seu casamento, lembrou-se da urgência que a fazia deixar tudo por fazer e ir atrás do marido no roçado. Viu a si mesma, viu os dois, ela e o marido, um casal corado e feliz se deitando debaixo de qualquer árvore. Dez meses após o casamento nasceu o primeiro filho, seguido de outros, um por ano. A leveza daquele início parecia tão distante, tão irreal. Uma lagrimazinha de saudade marejou seus olhos abatidos, rolou pela face cansada e foi morrer no peito murcho. Desanimada, ela pensou que nunca mais ia parar de ter filhos, de lavar bundinhas melecadas de cocô. Acabou deixando os pombinhos em paz, eles que aproveitassem a vida enquanto era possível. Mas avisou aos interessados que preferia perder um bom quinhão de suas terras a continuar convivendo com tamanha barafunda. Assim, a ideia remota da criação de um arraial foi posta em prática. Doações foram feitas e o terreno demarcado.

          As construções começaram a nascer com a rapidez dos cogumelos. Primeiro a igreja com a torre central, beiral duplo em madeira recortada em bicos. Paredes azuis, janelas brancas. Feinha a pobre igreja, mas nem por isso desprezada. Talvez sua maior virtude estivesse na singeleza, no aconchego. A igrejinha era o orgulho do povoado. Sobre o altar feito por um carpinteiro caprichoso, a imagem de um Cristo cansado, a cabeça pensa, o olhar vazio. Descascado, ensanguentado, provocava nos fieis uma piedade quase dolorosa. Foi nessa igreja que meus pais me apresentaram ao Nosso Criador.

    TEXTO 8

          Aos 60 anos, Rossmarc foi confinado na cadeia Raimundo Pessoa em Manaus, dividindo uma cela com 80 detentos. Dormia no chão junto de uma fossa sanitária. Para manter-se vivo usava toda a sua inteligência para fazer acordos com os detentos. Lá havia de tudo: drogados, jagunços, pseudomissionários, contrabandistas etc. Fora vítima do advogado. Com toda a lábia, nunca fora a Brasília defender Rossmarc. Por não ter apresentado a defesa, foi condenado a 13 anos de prisão. O advogado sumira, Rossmarc perdera o prazo para recorrer. Como era estrangeiro, os juízes temiam que fugisse do Brasil. O juiz ordenou sua prisão imediata. A cela, com oitenta detentos, fervilhava, era mais do que o inferno. Depressivo, mantinha-se tartamudo num canto, remoendo sua história, recordando-se dos bons tempos em que navegava pelos rios da Amazônia com seus amigos primatas.

          Visitas? Só a de Pássaro Azul. Mudara-se também para Manaus e, sem nada dizer a Rossmarc, para obter dinheiro, prostituía-se num cabaré. Estava mais magra e algumas rugas se mostravam em seu rosto antes reluzente, agora de cor negra desgastada. Com o intuito de obter dinheiro, tanto para Rossmarc pagar as contas de dois viciados em crack no presídio, como para as custas de um advogado inexperiente, pouco se alimentava e ao redor dos olhos manchas entumecidas apareciam, deixando-a como alguém que consumia droga em exagero. As noitadas no cabaré enfumaçado e fedorento deixavam-na enfraquecida. Mas não deixara de amar o biólogo holandês. Quando fugira do quilombola, naquela noite, jurara amor eterno e não estava disposta a quebrar o juramento.

          Enquanto Pássaro Azul se prostituía para obter os escassos recursos, Rossmarc, espremido entre os oitenta detentos, procurava desesperadamente uma luz no fim do túnel. Lembrava-se dos amigos influentes, de jornalistas, de políticos, e cada vez que Pássaro Azul o visitava, ele implorava que procurasse essas pessoas. Pássaro Azul corria atrás, mas sequer era recebida. Quem daria ouvidos a uma negra que se dizia íntima de Rossmarc, o biólogo que cometera crimes de biopirataria? Na visita seguinte, Rossmarc indagava:

          — E dai, procurou aquela pessoa?

          Para não magoar o amado, ela respondia que todos estavam muito interessados em sua causa. Dizia, entretanto, sem entusiasmo, com os olhos acuados e baixos, para não ver o rosto magro e chupado de Rossmarc. Entregava-lhe o pouco dinheiro que economizava, fruto da prostituição, e saia de lá com os olhos rasos d’água, tolhendo os soluços.

          Numa noite no cabaré, Pássaro Azul conheceu um homem gordo e vesgo, que usava correntões de ouro. Dizia-se dono de um garimpo no meio da selva. Bebia e fumava muito, ria alto, com gargalhadas por vezes irritantes. Entre todas as raparigas, escolheu Pássaro Azul, que lhe fez todas as vontades, pervertendo-se de forma baixa e vil. Foram três noitadas intermináveis, mas Pássaro Azul aprendera a administrar a bebida. Não era tola, como as demais, que se embebedavam a ponto de caírem e serem arrastadas. Era carinhosa com o fazendeiro e saciava-lhe todos os caprichos. Não o abandonava, sentava em seu colo gordo e fazia-lhe agrados fingidos. Dava-lhe mais bebida e um composto de viagra, e o rosto gordo se avermelhava como de um leão enraivecido. Então, ela o puxava para o quarto sórdido. Na cama, enfrentava como guerreira o monte de carne e ossos, trepando sobre suas grandes papadas balofas e cavalgando, como uma guerreira. O homem resfolegava, gritava, gemia, uivava, mas Pássaro Azul não parava aquela louca cavalgada.

    VEGAN VS VEGETARIAN – WHAT’S THE DIFFERENCE?

     

    By Alina Petre

         

        Vegetarian diets have reportedly been around since as early as 700 B.C. Several typesexist and individuals may practice them for a variety of reasons, including health, ethics, environmentalism and religion. Vegan diets are a little more recent, but are getting a good amount of press.

     

    What is a vegetarian diet?

     

         According to the Vegetarian Society, a vegetarian is someone who does not eat any meat, poultry, game, fish, shellfish or by-products of animal slaughter. Vegetarian diets contain various levels of fruits, vegetables, grains, pulses, nuts and seeds. The inclusion of dairy and eggs depends on the type of diet you follow.

     

    The most common types of vegetarians include:

     

    • Lacto-ovo vegetarians: Vegetarians who avoid all animal flesh, but do consume dairy and egg products.

    • Lacto vegetarians: Vegetarians who avoid animal flesh and eggs, but do consume dairy products.

    • Ovo vegetarians: Vegetarians who avoid all animal products except eggs.

    • Vegans: Vegetarians who avoid all animal and animal-derived products.

     

       Those  who do not eat  meat  or poultry but  do consume  fish are considered pescatarians, whereas part-time vegetarians are often referred to as flexitarians.

        Although sometimes considered vegetarians, pescatarians and flexitarians do eat animal flesh. Therefore, they do not technically fall under the definition of vegetarianism.

    Pluto should be reclassified as a planet, experts say

          The reason Pluto lost its planet status is not valid, according to new research from the University of Central Florida in Orlando. In 2006, the International Astronomical Union (IAU), a global group of astronomy experts, established a definition of a planet that required it to "clear" its orbit, or in other words, be the largest gravitational force in its orbit. […]
         Metzger, who is lead author on the study, reviewed scientific literature from the past 200 years and found only one publication -- from 1802 -- that used the clearing-orbit requirement to classify planets, and it was based on since-disproven reasoning.
         "It's a sloppy definition," Metzger said of the IAU's definition. "They didn't say what they meant by clearing their orbit. If you take that literally, then there are no planets, because no planet clears its orbit." […]
         Metzger said that the definition of a planet should be based on its intrinsic properties, rather than ones that can change, such as the dynamics of a planet's orbit. "Dynamics are not constant, they are constantly changing," Metzger said. "So, they are not the fundamental description of a body, they are just the occupation of a body at a current era."
        Instead, Metzger recommends classifying a planet based on if it is large enough that its gravity allows it to become spherical in shape. "And that's not just an arbitrary definition, Metzger said. "It turns out this is an important milestone in the evolution of a planetary body, because apparently when it happens, it initiates active geology in the body."
