  25. Brazil: Babaçu Nut Breakers in the Bico do Papagaio By Marcelo Silva The warm waters of the Rio Araguaia join up with the cold waters of the Rio Tocantins in the center of Brazil. The two rivers joining together shape the outlines of a beak, more precisely a parrot’s beak, which explains its regional name, Bico de Papagaio. This very region gained international notoriety for the violence of its conflicts around its land in the 1970s and 80s as well as for being the largest scene of land plundering in the world. While theu husbands were engaged in the fight and occupying the land, the women supported their families by practicing a primitive type of activity that still exists today, that is breaking babaçu nuts. These women are known by the name of babaçu nut breakers in the Bico do Papagaio. Thgy lead an exhausting daily life as they are confronted by all sorts of difficulties in the quest to gather just enough money to buy one kilo of rice and one of sugar at the end of the day.

  28. Coughing Kitties Maryann Mott Feline asthma isn’t a new disease. It was first described in scientific literature more than 90 years ago, says veterinarian Philip Padrid of the Family Pet Animal Hospital in Chicago. Nicki Reed, a veterinarian at the University of Edinburgh’s Hospital for Small Animals, says that when a coughing cat is brought to the clinic, she must first establish if the cause is an infection, asthma, or something more sinister, like a lung mass. To do this, Read usually performs an x-ray, takes a lung fluid sample, and conducts a bronchcoscopy — an examination that uses a flexible microscope inserted into the cat’s airway. Most of the time, asthma is a mild disease, Reed says. But in some cases cat's lungs collapse or their ribs fracture due to difficulty in breathing. “I think if we can identify asthmatic cats quite early and get treatments on board to suppress their cough, then hopefully we can avoid them coming to such extremes,” she said.
