Civil societies can only thrive when damaging stereotypes are broken down. The difficulty is that stereotypes are sometimes hard to recognize because they are fixed beliefs. Learning to identify stereotypes is one of the first steps we must take to build a civil society. All of us face peer pressure when confronted with a joke which puts down a certain minority. It takes courage to raise objections to these jokes and pejorative names and to actively fight the prejudice and bigotry which they foster. It is important to stand up against injustice, and fight the discrimination, stereotypes, and scapegoating which have served as the precursors to persecution, violence, and genocide. After identifying stereotypes, we can work toward eliminating them from society. When stereotypes are eliminated, it will be easier to acknowledge and appreciate individual differences. When we live in a society that is open to cultural diversity and that values the contributions of all society members – regardless of cultural and ethnic backgrounds, race, life styles, and belief – we will be one step closer to living in a civil society.

[...] Black Friday, which has traditionally been the moment to flock to stores for steep discounts, and which has
evolved to also include major online sales events for retailers like Amazon, Best Buy and Walmart, is not all that it is
billed to be. We asked J. D. Levite, the deals editor of the product recommendations website The Wirecutter, for some
data on just how beneficial the deals are on Black Friday – and the answer was not encouraging.
Year round, Mr. Levite and his team track product prices across the web to unearth discounts on goods of all
types, from gadgets to kitchenware. They also look at whether the product is high quality and durable based on their
own testing and other reviews, and whether the seller or brand has a reasonable return or warranty policy. By those
measures, Mr. Levite said, only about 0.6 percent, or 200 out of the approximately 34,000 deals online, which typically
carry the same price tags inside retailers’ physical stores, will be good ones on Black Friday. “There are just more deals
on that day than any other day of the year,” he said. “But for the most part, the deals aren’t anything better than what
you’d see throughout the rest of the year.” [...]

SODA’S NEW THREAT
Sure, soda can rot your teeth and make you fat, but that’s not all. Sugary drinks may increase your risk of heart
disease, especially if you’re a heavy guy, say scientists from the University of California at Davis. In the study,
overweight people who drank a fructose-sweetened beverage with a meal saw their triglyceride levels spike three
times as high over 24 hours than people who drank a glucose-sweetened beverage. Triglycerides are fats in your
blood, and high levels are thought to boost heart-disease risk. Your liver converts fructose to triglycerides, causing the
spike, says study author Karen Teff, Ph.D. Most fruit juices also contains fructose, so dilute apple juice with equal parts
water.

Technology plays a key role in teenage romance from initial encounters to eventual break-ups, says a US
study.
Teenagers rarely meet online but do use technology for flirting, asking out, meeting up and parting, American think
tank, the Pew Research Center, found. A survey of 1,060 US teenagers aged 13 to 17 revealed that technology brings
them closer but also breeds jealousy. "Digital platforms are powerful tools for teens," said Amanda Lenhart, lead author
of the report from Pew. "But even as teens enjoy greater closeness with partners and a chance to display their
relationships for others to see, mobile and social media can also be tools for jealousy, meddling and even troubling
behaviour."
Digital romance, broken down
Of the 1,060 teenagers surveyed: • 35% said they were currently dating and 59% of that group said technology made
them feel closer to their partner • For boys who were dating, 65% said social media made them more connected to a
significant other while it was 52% for girls • 27% of dating teenagers thought social media made them feel jealous or
insecure in relationships • 50% of all teens surveyed, dating or not, said they had indicated interest by friending
someone on Facebook or other social media and 47% expressed attraction by likes and comments • Texting is king -
92% of teens who were dating said they texted a partner, assuming the partner would check in with "great regularity" •
Jealousy happens, but not as much as flirting does - 11% of teenage daters reported accessing a partner's online
accounts and 16% reported having a partner asking them to de-friend someone What gets discussed during all those
frequent social media enabled check-ins? According to the survey, it is mostly "funny stuff" followed by "things you're
thinking about" as well as other information such as where they are and what their friends have been doing. And forget
having to meet up to resolve a conflict - 48% of dating teenagers said that could be done by texting or talking online.
Online tools, with their accessibility and ease of use, also showed some signs of giving this group relationship anxiety.
Females are more likely to be subject to unwanted flirting and 25% of teenagers surveyed said they have blocked or
unfriended someone because of uncomfortable flirting. And 15% of teenage daters said a partner had used the internet
to pressure them into unwanted sexual activity.
'More than emojis'
Nearly half the respondents admitted to concentrating on their phone ahead of their partner when together with 43% of
dating teens saying that had happened to them. "I don't think this survey reveals much that is surprising. But it is
affirming. Humans are social animals and we build tools to connect with each other,"wrote Julie Beck, an associate
editor at The Atlantic news site, of the survey's findings. "It's not all heart emojis all the time, no, but the tools that
facilitate relationships facilitate all aspects of them, good and bad. "Connecting with others is scary, hard, sometimes
dangerous, but usually, hopefully, good. The teens get it."

Reducing food waste would mitigate
climate change, study shows
April 7, 2016
Reducing food waste around the world would help curb
emissions of planet-warming gases, lessening some of the
impacts of climate change such as more extreme weather
and rising seas, scientists said on Thursday.
Up to 14% of emissions from agriculture in 2050 could
be avoided by managing food use and distribution better,
according to a new study from the Potsdam Institute for
Climate Impact Research (PIK). “Agriculture is a major
driver of climate change, accounting for more than 20% of
overall global greenhouse gas emissions in 2010,” said
co-author Prajal Pradhan. “Avoiding food loss and waste would
therefore avoid unnecessary greenhouse gas emissions and
help mitigate climate change.”
Between 30 and 40% of food produced around the world
is never eaten, because it is spoiled after harvest and during
transportation, or thrown away by shops and consumers. The
share of food wasted is expected to increase drastically if emerging economies like China and India adopt western food
habits, including a shift to eating more meat, the researchers
warned. Richer countries tend to consume more food than is
healthy or simply waste it, they noted.
As poorer countries develop and the world’s population
grows, emissions associated with food waste could soar
from 0.5 gigatonnes (GT) of carbon dioxide equivalent per
year to between 1.9 and 2.5 GT annually by mid-century,
showed the study published in the Environmental Science &
Technology journal. It is widely argued that cutting food waste
and distributing the world’s surplus food where it is needed
could help tackle hunger in places that do not have enough -
especially given that land to expand farming is limited.
But Jürgen Kropp, another of the study’s co-authors and
PIK’s head of climate change and development, told the
Thomson Reuters Foundation the potential for food waste
curbs to reduce emissions should be given more attention.
“It is not a strategy of governments at the moment,” he said.

In developing countries there are high levels of what is known as “food loss”, which is unintentional wastage, often due to poor equipment, transportation and infrastructure. In wealthy countries, there are low levels of unintentional losses but high levels of “food waste”, which involves food being thrown away by consumers because they have purchased too much, or by retailers who reject food because of exacting aesthetic standards.

‘Nazi-Hunters’ Come to Brazil After Hitler’s Accomplices

ANNA VIRGINIA BALLOUSSIER
SPECIAL ENVOY TO RIO
Steinz still “has hope” that he will find some of the people
responsible for the Jewish genocide during WWII still living.
The Third Reich fell apart 71 years ago, leading Nazis, low to top ranking, to escape to Latin America in mass. That stampede has been compared to the escape of rodents from a sinking ship -the “rat routes”.
Delegate Uwe Steinz, 58, still “has hope” that he will find some of the people responsible for the Jewish genocide during World War II still living.
After fighting organized crime and prostitution in his country, the German lives off “hunting Nazis”-and believes there is a fistful of them in Brazil.
Since 2009, as an employee of the Central Office of the State Justice Administrations for the Investigation of National Socialist Crimes, he has already made 14 trips to the National Archive in Rio. Among five million immigrant registration records, Steinz is searching for the registrations for Germans born between 1916 and 1931.
The information of those who fit the profile is sent to the headquarters in Germany, which verifies if the person served the Third Reich. He didn’t come to hunt the “big fish” of the SS, the elite squad of Nazis -older, they are probably no longer with us. His target is the “lower clergy”, such as camp guards and accountants.
The most famous one of them, Joseph Mengele, the “Angel of Death”, was a doctor in Auschwitz responsible for prisoner triage (forced labor or gas chamber). He died at age 67, in 1979, when he drowned in Bertioga (on the coast of São Paulo), possibly a victim of cardiac arrest. He was never tried.
There are more accounts of older Nazis in Brazil, like Herbert Cukurs (who rented paddleboats in Niterói) and Franz Stangl, employed at a Volkswagen factory in ABC Paulista.
Arrested in 1967, Stangl was extradited and was targeted for the death of 900 thousand people. “My conscience is at peace”, he said at the time.
