The document discusses how Antoni Gaudi used various plants in his architectural designs. It provides examples of how he incorporated palms, marigolds, oranges, strawberries, grapes, watermelons, wheat, cypress trees, mushrooms, sunflowers, cacti, and daisies into buildings like Park Guell, Casa Mila, Casa Vicens, and La Sagrada Familia. Photos show ornate details inspired by these plants, like palm-shaped fences and columns, fruit-shaped spires, mushroom-shaped fireplaces, and ceilings and columns decorated with daisies.

Poor people living in difficult conditions can easily produce fresh food by gardening on sacks. It can be recommended to create tunnels with drought-tolerant Navajo willows to improve the gardening conditions (shadow, air humidity). More yield equals less poverty and less desertification.

Popeye, como quase todos conhecem, é um personagem clássico dos quadrinhos, criado por E.C.Segar em 17 de janeiro de 1929, portanto, completando 85 anos, e adaptado para desenhos animados em 1933 pelos irmãos Dave e Max Fleischer.
É um marinheiro carismático que está sempre tentando proteger sua namorada Olívia Palito, das garras de seu inimigo Brutus.
Quando come espinafre, Popeye fica forte e confiante, podendo vencer qualquer desafio, tendo sua força equiparada e superior até ao poderoso Superman.
Tem até uma vila em homenagem a ele: a Popeye Village, também conhecida como Sweethaven Village, é um grupo de rústicos e em ruínas edifícios de madeira localizados em Anchor Bay, no canto noroeste do Mediterrâneo, na ilha de Malta.
Foi construído como um set de filmagem para a produção de 1980 - live-action - característica musical do filme Popeye, produzido pela Paramount Pictures e Walt Disney Productions e estrelado por Robin Williams.
Hoje, é aberto ao público como um museu a céu aberto e um complexo de entretenimento familiar.

June 3, 2024 Anti-Semitism Letter Sent to MIT President Kornbluth and MIT Cor...Levi Shapiro
Letter from the Congress of the United States regarding Anti-Semitism sent June 3rd to MIT President Sally Kornbluth, MIT Corp Chair, Mark Gorenberg
Dear Dr. Kornbluth and Mr. Gorenberg,
The US House of Representatives is deeply concerned by ongoing and pervasive acts of antisemitic
harassment and intimidation at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). Failing to act decisively to ensure a safe learning environment for all students would be a grave dereliction of your responsibilities as President of MIT and Chair of the MIT Corporation.
This Congress will not stand idly by and allow an environment hostile to Jewish students to persist. The House believes that your institution is in violation of Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, and the inability or
unwillingness to rectify this violation through action requires accountability.
Postsecondary education is a unique opportunity for students to learn and have their ideas and beliefs challenged. However, universities receiving hundreds of millions of federal funds annually have denied
students that opportunity and have been hijacked to become venues for the promotion of terrorism, antisemitic harassment and intimidation, unlawful encampments, and in some cases, assaults and riots.
The House of Representatives will not countenance the use of federal funds to indoctrinate students into hateful, antisemitic, anti-American supporters of terrorism. Investigations into campus antisemitism by the Committee on Education and the Workforce and the Committee on Ways and Means have been expanded into a Congress-wide probe across all relevant jurisdictions to address this national crisis. The undersigned Committees will conduct oversight into the use of federal funds at MIT and its learning environment under authorities granted to each Committee.
• The Committee on Education and the Workforce has been investigating your institution since December 7, 2023. The Committee has broad jurisdiction over postsecondary education, including its compliance with Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, campus safety concerns over disruptions to the learning environment, and the awarding of federal student aid under the Higher Education Act.
• The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is investigating the sources of funding and other support flowing to groups espousing pro-Hamas propaganda and engaged in antisemitic harassment and intimidation of students. The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is the principal oversight committee of the US House of Representatives and has broad authority to investigate “any matter” at “any time” under House Rule X.
• The Committee on Ways and Means has been investigating several universities since November 15, 2023, when the Committee held a hearing entitled From Ivory Towers to Dark Corners: Investigating the Nexus Between Antisemitism, Tax-Exempt Universities, and Terror Financing. The Committee followed the hearing with letters to those institutions on January 10, 202
