Ingredientes:
=============
1 kg de polvilho doce
sal a gosto
água
manteiga
Instruções:
===========
Coloque o polvilho numa vasilha, junte o sal, cubra com água. Deixe que o polvilho desça outra vez para o fundo da vasilha e escorra aquela água.Ponha um guardanapo limpo sobre a massa para que ajude a enxugar. É preciso que o guardanapo encoste na massa.
Depois de meia hora, troque o guardanapo. Faça isso até que o polvilho possa ser como que cortado por uma colher. Vira uma massa, seca mesmo (às vezes se pode usar até 4 guardanapos)
Leve ao processador de alimentos, utilizando o botão pulsar. Aperte o botão até que fique soltinho. (Ou passa na peneira)
Pegue uma frigideira rasa, coloque para aquecer. Coloque uma quantidade da massa que dê para todo o fundo da frigideira e espalhe com uma colher. Mal comece a dourar, vire e asse do outro lado. Assim que sai do fogo, você passa manteiga, dobra em dois, em forma de meia lua. Também pode rechear com coco ralado. Nesse caso, sirva coberta com um fio de leite condensado.

If you meet Robert Fisk, stone him
They started by shaking hands. We said "Salaam aleikum" peace be upon you then the first pebbles flew past my face. A small boy tried to grab my bag. Then another. Then someone punched me in the back. Then young men broke my glasses, began smashing stones into my face and head. I couldn't see for the blood pouring down my forehead and swamping my eyes. And even then, I understood. I couldn't blame them for what they were doing. In fact, if I were the Afghan refugees of Kila Abdullah, close to the Afghan-Pakistan border, I would have done just the same to Robert Fisk. Or any other Westerner I could find.
...
I guess at this point I should thank Lebanon. For 25 years, I have covered Lebanon's wars and the Lebanese used to teach me, over and over again, how to stay alive: take a decision any decision but don't do nothing.

Standby. You're on the air.
Buenos noches Senores y Senoras. Bienvenidos.
La primera pregunta es: Que es mas macho, pineapple o knife?
Well, let's see. My guess is that a pineapple is more macho than a knife.
Si! Correcto! Pineapple es mas macho que knife.
La segunda pregunta es: Que es mas macho, lightbulb o schoolbus?
Uh, lightbulb?
No! Lo siento, Schoolbus es mas macho que lightbulb.
Gracias. And we'll be back in un momento.

It was Cobb Anderson who built the "boppers" - the first robots with real brains. Now, in 2020, Cobb is just another aged "pheezer" with a bad heart, drinking and grooving an the old tunes in Florida retirement hell. His "bops" have came a long way, though, rebelling against their subjugation to set up their own society an the moon. And now they're offering creator Cobb immortality but at a stiff price: his body his soul ... and his world.
