RIO FAVELAS CRIME CLAMPDOWN<br />
Brazilian security forces occupied one of the biggest slums in Rio on Sunday.<br />
The operation was part of a major<br />
clampdown on organised crime ahead of<br />
the 2014 World Cup and the 2016<br />
Olympics.<br />
Authorities in Rio launched a fresh<br />
attack on organised crime by taking over<br />
the Mangueira slum close to the city's<br />
famous Maracana Stadium.<br />
MÓDULO 3<br />
TEXT<br />
Around 800 police and Special Forces occupied the slum without firing any shots.<br />
The vast majority of residents co-operated fully with the authorities; they want their<br />
community pacified and free of drug dealers.<br />
The police had pre-announced the raid, a strategy that gives criminals the chance to<br />
leave the area rather than being confronted in densely populated areas. Rio's authorities<br />
are making an effort to win the trust of those living in the slums who after decades of abuse<br />
have got used to seeing the police as their enemy.<br />
Brazilian Navy soldiers patrol in an operation against drug<br />
dealers at Mangueira slum in Rio.<br />
The Mangueira is the 18th slum in Rio to be reclaimed by the authorities. But there<br />
is still a lot to be done. With hundreds of slums known as "favelas" still in the hands of<br />
organised criminals, drug dealers have vast areas in which to hide and thrive.<br />

Do you ever get angry at people<br />
walking slowly in front of you? If you do,<br />
you might be suffering from Intermittent<br />
Explosive Disorder (IED). A University of<br />
Hawaii professor, Leon James, has studied<br />
people’s emotions as they walk along busy<br />
streets in New York City. He discovered<br />
that many people have “serious problems”<br />
when someone walking at a snail’s pace in<br />
front of them impedes their progress. Dr James, a psychology professor, called the condition<br />
“sidewalk rage”. James is developing a Pedestrian Aggressiveness Syndrome Scale (PASS)<br />
to measure the different levels of sidewalk rage. It measures 15 different behaviors that<br />
indicate sidewalk rage. These include muttering to yourself, bumping into other pedestrians<br />
on purpose, glaring, and walking too closely to other people.<br />
Dr James’ research found that tourists are those most likely to cause IED. They are<br />
the slowest walkers, at an average of 1.16 metres per second. IED sufferers should easily<br />
be able to spot tourists and change course to avoid any chances of getting angry. Next<br />
slowest are smokers, cellphone users, and people with bags. These walk between 1.27 and<br />
1.3 metres per second. The fastest walkers, at 1.4 metres per second, are those who listen<br />
to music. New York resident Jim Redman said he was shocked when he found out about<br />
the research. “That’s me!” he said. “I get sidewalk rage every day. I can’t stand it when<br />
people walk so slow in the city. I have no patience with them,” he added. Mr Redman<br />
confessed that he also showed signs of IED in his home when his children slow down his<br />
journey to the bathroom.<br />

BILINGUALISM<br />
Residents of the European Union<br />
(EU) are becoming better and better at<br />
languages. Almost 50 percent of the EU<br />
population reckon they can speak at<br />
least one foreign language very well,<br />
with that figure rising to nearly 80<br />
percent for students. To celebrate its<br />
linguistic diversity and bilingual,<br />
trilingual or multilingual capabilities, a<br />
special day is set aside in the EU. September 26 is the European Day of Languages. The<br />
day’s website cites a Slovak proverb that says: “The number of languages you speak is the<br />
number of times you are human”. This aims to encourage all Europeans to brush up on and<br />
advance their language skills. The website predicts that Europe’s young generation “will<br />
fully contribute to enriching Europe’s multilingual society”.<br />
The results of the “Eurobarometer” survey put Luxembourgers at the top of the<br />
language ability list. An amazing 99 percent of the Luxembourgish population is at least<br />
bilingual. Those with the poorest language skills are the Hungarians (29 percent) and British<br />
(30 percent). The survey also shows that English is the most widely spoken foreign<br />
language, used by more than a third of the population. It is followed by German (12<br />
percent), which has for the first time usurped French (11 percent) for the second spot.<br />
European enlargement to incorporate former communist countries has elevated Russian to<br />
fourth place – tied with Spanish. The EU spends $36 million a year on language programs.<br />

FUVEST<br />
The role of women in Spanish society has changed fast since the country became a democracy after General<br />
Franco died in 1975. He had swept away liberal reforms introduced in the 1930s, when Spain was a republic.<br />
For women specifically, these included a benevolent divorce law and certain property rights. In the 1930s many<br />
women played a big part on the left, often fighting side by side with men in the pro-Republic militias during the 1936-<br />
39 civil war. But after it the new regime, for the most part applauded by the church, put them back in the home as<br />
wives and mothers, with divorce forbidden and working outside frowned on.<br />
Change began in the 1960s when Spain opened up to tourists. Faced with competition from sexually liberated north<br />
Europeans, Spanish women “declared war on them, on men and on their elders”, in the words of Lucia Graves, author<br />
of “A Woman Unknown”, which recounts her life as an Englishwoman married to a Spaniard at the time. That aggressive<br />
self-assertion continues.<br />
<strong>No</strong>t wholly successfully. At universities, women students now outnumber men. A typical couple has one or two<br />
children these days, a far cry from the days when families of eight or ten were common. But Spanish women still<br />
face the problems of their sisters in northern Europe. Their progress at work is often blocked, their pay often lower<br />
than men’s.<br />

AIDS Spreading in CIS ‘Virtually Unchecked’<br />
1. GENEVA (Reuters) – The HIV/AIDS epidemic has exploded in Eastern Europe and Commonwealth of Independent<br />
States, posing the greatest health threat to youth in the region, the United Nations said on Wednesday. In a report,<br />
the U.N. Children's Fund (UNICEF) warned that the killer disease was spreading "virtually unchecked" into the wider<br />
population through heterosexual contact with injecting drug users.<br />
2. Russia and Ukraine account for nine-tenths of the estimated one million HIV/AIDS cases in the 27 transition countries,<br />
according to UNICEF's Social Monitor 2002. The figure, through 2001, compares to 700,000 a year earlier and<br />
420,000 in 1998.<br />
3. "HIV is spreading at a faster rate in some countries in the region than in any other part of the world," UNICEF said.<br />
"The HIV epidemic is the biggest threat to young people's health in the region...There is also little evidence that public<br />
interventions to halt the spread of HIV in the hardest hit countries have been sufficiently effective."<br />
4. Estonia has the region's highest rate of new HIV infections, with more than one in every 1,000 people infected in<br />
2001 – almost 20 times the average rate in the European Union, according to the report produced by UNICEF's<br />
Innocenti Research Center in Florence, Italy.<br />
5. In the CIS countries, a quarter of all officially registered infections between 1997 and 2000 were among women,<br />
suggesting increasing heterosexual transmission, it said. But awareness of the need to use condoms to prevent transmission<br />
remains poor in the region, where both the number of sex workers and injecting drug users is growing, it said.<br />
c) of every 1000 people infected with HIV/AIDS in 2001, one is from<br />
Estonia.<br />

Putting information into the hands of the people was among the original, lofty aims of the Internet – easy to forget<br />
amid the forests of e-boutiques and subscription – only sites. But an online encyclopedia – where all entries are written,<br />
maintained and vetted by Web surfers themselves – is trying to recapture those early democratic ideals. Called<br />
Wikipedia.org (wiki means “superfast” in Hawaiian and is also the name of the collaborative software upon which<br />
the site is built), the encyclopedia features more than 700,000 hypertexted articles on everything from “Anthrax<br />
(band)” to “Zeppelin.” That’s more listings than Britannica.com, Encarta.com and Encyclopedia.com combined.<br />
“My dream has been to put a free comprehensive encyclopedia at everybody’s fingertips,” says 37-year-old founder<br />
Jimmy Wales, who spends up to 12 unpaid hours a day maintaining the site. “It’s my obsession.” It has also become the<br />
obsession of thousands of others who contribute entries and programming time for free. The concept is as simple as it is<br />
ambitious: anybody can create or edit the articles, and the system relies on masses of users to catch mistakes and thus<br />
ensure the information is correct, comprehensive and up-to-date.<br />
