UNESCO World Heritage Sites

   World Heritage Sites are locations deemed to be of cultural or historical benefit for humanity by the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization (UNESCO). By including sites on its World Heritage list, UNESCO hopes to ensure their continued preservation.
    The criteria for inclusion in the list cover a range of possible categories: 

 Many World Heritage Sites are locations that have played a major role in the world’s cultures or civilizations. Some of them may in fact be the last remnants of a people who have since disappeared.
 UNESCO also celebrates sites that represent key periods in human history, such as innovations in town planning or technological breakthroughs.
 Places may be included as examples of individual genius. This may be a building of prime architectural importance or a location connected with the creation of a major work of art.
 Not all sites are man-made, however. They could be an area of outstanding natural beauty, or geological significance, for example, as the site of a fossil discovery.
 One further objective is to celebrate biodiversity. A site may play a vital role in the development of an existing ecosystem. Those which provide habitats for endangered species are particularly strong candidates for inclusion in the UNESCO list. 
Based on the text, judge the item.

Being proclaimed a World Heritage Site can help to preserve biodiversity.

“THE GRAND TOUR OF THE GARDENS

      You must see for yourselves that it will be difficult to follow Peter Pan’s adventures unless you are familiar with the Kensington Gardens. They are in London, where the King lives, and I used to take David there nearly everyday unless he was looking decidedly flushed. No child has ever been in the whole of the Gardens, because it is so soon time to turn back. The reason it is soon time to turn back is that, if you are as small as David, you sleep from twelve to one. If your mother was not so sure that you sleep from twelve to one, you could most likely see the whole of them.”
(BARRIE, J. M. Peter Pan in Kensington Gardens. New York: Charles Scribner’s Sons, 1910, p. 1)

I. Quem conhece os Jardins de Kensington é capaz de compreender a história de Peter Pan;

Leia o trecho introdutório de uma grande obra de Jane Austen e responda o que se pede:

“It is a truth universally acknowledged, that a single man in possession of a good fortune, must be in want of a wife. However little known the feelings or views of such a man may be on his first entering a neighbourhood, this truth is so well fixed in the minds of the surrounding families, that he is considered the rightful property of some one or other of their daughters. ‘My dear Mr. Bennet,’ said his lady to him one day, ‘have you heard that Netherfield Park is let at last?’ Mr. Bennet replied that he had not. ‘But it is,’ returned she; ‘for Mrs. Long has just been here, and she told me all about it.’ Mr. Bennet made no answer. ‘Do you not want to know who has taken it?’ cried his wife impatiently. ‘You want to tell me, and I have no objection to hearing it.”

O texto seguinte servirá de base para responder à questão.


(1º§) The ivory-billed woodpecker, along with 22 other species of birds, fish, mussels and other wildlife, is set to be declared extinct and removed from the endangered species list, US wildlife officials announced Wednesday.

(2º§) "For the species proposed for delisting today, the protections of the (Endangered Species Act) came too late, with most either extinct, functionally extinct, or in steep decline at the timing of listing," the US Fish and Wildlife Service said.

(3º§) "The circumstances of each also underscore how human activity can drive species decline and extinction, by contributing to habitat loss, overuse and the introduction of invasive species and disease. The growing impacts of climate change are anticipated to further exacerbate these threats and their interactions," the wildlife agency said.

(4º§) Interior Secretary Deb Haaland underscored that while a variety of specific factors contributed to each species' demise, "the story arc is essentially the same - humans altered their habitat in a significant way, and we couldn't or didn't do enough to ultimately change the trajectory before it was too late."

(5º§) But the interior secretary suggested the extinction of these species can be a "wake-up call" for humans to take action to prevent extinction and protect biodiversity.

(6º§) "With climate change and natural area loss pushing more and more species to the brink, now is the time to lift up proactive, collaborative, and innovative efforts to save America's wildlife," Haaland said Wednesday in a statement. "The Endangered Species Act has been incredibly effective at preventing species from going extinct and has also inspired action to conserve at-risk species and their habitat before they need to be listed as endangered or threatened.

(7º§) "We will continue to ensure that states, Tribes, private landowners, and federal agencies have the tools they need to conserve America's biodiversity and natural heritage."

BIG CAT ATTACK


(1º§) Farmer Pedro Vaz Ferreira was out hunting on Saturday with his two sons in the rural area of Portel, Brazil when he was savaged by the big cat.

(2º§) The feline's brutal attack left the 67-year-old in a serious state of health - as he reportedly suffered a partially disfigured face, some broken cheek bones and went blind in one eye.

(3º§) His two sons, Davi, 32, and 25-year-old Josue witnessed as the elderly man and animal even tussled for a few minutes. Davi told the news outlet O Liberal: "The three of us were in the forest, but it just attacked him. "The most serious wound is on his face. It broke the bones in his face, his nose, it blinded him. "He lost his vision instantly. It pierced his eye with its nail." Shortly after the attack, one of Mr Ferreira's sons reportedly killed the jaguar with a machete.

(4º§) Mr Ferreira's relatives took him by speedboat to the Hospital Wilson da Mota Silveira in Portel. He remained there in a serious condition until Monday, when he was transferred to a larger hospital in Ananindeua - 200km away.

(5º§) Jaguar attacks are considered rare in Brazil, as experts have cited them as the least likely of all big cats to kill and eat humans.

(6º§) Recently, another Brazilian was attacked by an alligator - but managed to make a lucky escape with only a bite on his arm. The daredevil had decided to go for a swim in a popular tourist destination, the Lago do Amor in Campo Grande - ignoring warning signs that a lake was infested with the predators.

(7º§) In July, another Brazilian's fate was not so fortunate as he was mauled to death by a shark after walking into the sea to pee. The victim had reportedly been drinking with friends before he entered the water and was fatally bitten by the vicious animal.

Impact of Point-of-Care Technologies on Healthcare

by Impelsys Admin | Apr 25, 2019 

     Point-of-Care Technologies is a set of technologies used at the location of patient care helping improve healthcare outcomes. Blood glucose monitors, urine dipsticks, pregnancy tests, rapid strep tests, rapid HIV tests, hemoglobin level tests are common examples of PoCT. In the past few years PoCT have advanced and the field is showing strong growth, as evidenced by new clinical or consumer products research and development directions. The widespread use of this set of technologies is driven by healthcare emphasis shifting towards greater healthcare awareness, precision treatment, optimization of patient management process, and chronic disease management − combined with advances in electronic devices and information technology. 

   Point-of-care technologies add to the effectiveness and efficiency in healthcare delivery. PoC devices provide critical information to clinicians assisting in the management of patient care. Point-of-care technology enables diagnosis at home, in the hospital, in an ambulance, or in the field; it effectively delivers high quality of life care at the patient’s bedside, or in the corner of a consulting room, doing away with procedures that require an entire laboratory and long hours to arrive at a proper diagnosis.

   Point-of-Care procedures involve faster and leaner processes as testing is done on bedside and fewer steps are necessary to produce the result.

These are some of the advantages of PoCT:

− They eliminate the need for processing and aliquoting, transporting the specimen to the laboratory, and communicating results back to the clinical staff.

− Faster access to test results allows for rapid clinical decision making, enabling more appropriate treatments and interventions.

− They require smaller sample volumes than those needed for traditional laboratory testing.

− They can also help reduce the frequency of testing errors like inappropriate sampling errors, errors during preparation or packaging of samples, and patient misidentification.

− The fact that PoCT is often performed by the individual providing care to the patient may help decrease post analytical errors due to incorrect transmission of test results.
