a twist: please don’t come to brasil
What I’m about to say might offend some people and if you believe I am wrong feel free to elaborate on how and why and message/ask me.
I don’t know that remodeling a stadium is wrong. I mean yes it’s horrible that people are starving on the streets but the same thing happened in Puerto Rico. In 2010 Puerto Rico held the Latino Americano Olympics. So our governor decided to decorate, clean and remodel the entire city where the majority of events was happening and even build a few new things, such as the velodrome an entirely new athletic stadium (totaling more than 35 million) and others. But it was an investment. People were amazed at all the work put into it. And no surprise tourism went up. And it stayed up. The reason why it stayed up is because people saw how great Puerto Rico was and many people returned. Take it from a country who’s what I like to call a prostitute. (Prostitute in the sense that all we do is make Puerto Rico look pretty to have foreigners bring us money. We really don’t have any other source of income other than tourism) But if people are forming protests over an investment, why would people come back?
Apart from the recent police workings it seems to me that Your government currently isn’t bad. 40 million Brazillians out of poverty within the same governor doesn’t sound bad to me. It also sounds like the investments will be on the more long term side. If you stop it now, they’re going to pick it up again next year for FIFA and if you stop it then they’re going to pick it up AGAIN for the 2016 olympics. Like I said, an investment. If you manage to gain more money than you spend, (which with the many events and usage the stadiums/whatever else they’re building, sounds like you will) then the government will be able to use that for more new things FOR THE PEOPLE. That’s the way things work. You invest and make more money. I’d start protesting if you don’t see results after the confederation cup. (seeing as how it’s still going on I don’t see why you would need protesting when all the income hasn’t come in yet).
I did read what I could find from the news papers, maybe I’m being lied to, maybe people are overreacting. Maybe I just woke up on the asshole side of the bed this morning. But I’m willing to be told wrong. I’m willing to be corrected. So if my opinion is “wrong” then feel free to ask/message me about it. (I know I’ve been angry about misconceptions for Puerto Rico, so I don’t blame you if this makes you angry. Just know that I’m willing to reason.)

Genome Sequence of the Domestic Dog
Followup to “Canine Evolutionary Tree”In this phylogenetic tree the branch colours identify the red-fox-like clade (red), the South American clade (green), the wolf-like clade (blue) and the grey and island fox clade (orange). Complete explanation …
_____________________________________from Lindblad-Toh, Lander et al, Genome sequence, comparative analysis and haplotype structure of the domestic dog [Nature 438, 803-819 (8 December 2005)].
Man’s best friend, Canis familiaris, occupies a special niche in genomics. The unique breeding history of the domestic dog provides an unparalleled opportunity to explore the genetic basis of disease susceptibility, morphological variation and behavioural traits. The position of the dog within the mammalian evolutionary tree also makes it an important guide for comparative analysis of the human genome.
The history of the domestic dog traces back at least 15,000 years, and possibly as far back as 100,000 years, to its original domestication from the grey wolf in East Asia. Dogs evolved through a mutually beneficial relationship with humans, sharing living space and food sources. In recent centuries, humans have selectively bred dogs that excel at herding, hunting and obedience, and in this process have created breeds rich in behaviours that both mimic human behaviours and support our needs. …
With the exception of human, dog is the most intensely studied animal in medical practice, with detailed family history and pathology data often available. Using genetic resources developed over the past 15 years, researchers have already identified mutations in genes underlying 25 mendelian diseases. …
Our key findings include:
- The evolutionary forces molding the mammalian genome differ among lineages, with the average transposon insertion rate being lowest in dog, the deletion rate being highest in mouse and the nucleotide substitution rate being lowest in human.
- Comparison between human and dog shows that 5.3% of the human genome contains functional elements that have been under purifying selection in both lineages. Nearly all of these elements are confined to regions that have been retained in mouse, indicating that they represent a common set of functional elements across mammals.
- Sets of functionally related genes show highly similar patterns of evolution in the human and dog lineages. This suggests that we should be careful about interpreting accelerated evolution in human relative to mouse as representing human-specific innovations (for example, in genes involved in brain development), because comparable acceleration is often seen in the dog lineage. …
