Maicon acorda às 6h30min, vai ao banheiro, escova os dentes com Close up, se arruma, toma café e sai para o trabalho. Ao chegar, cumprimenta seus amigos, vai para sua sala, liga seu notebook e verifica se mouse está funcionando. Logo em seguida, conecta-se à web e olha sua caixa de e-mail. Então, dá início ao expediente. Depois de um tempo, é hora do almoço e decide variar o cardápio: hoje não vai ao restaurante de self-service. Assim, se dirige a um pit dog perto de seu escritório. É um trailer de fast food que serve sanduíches; para acompanhar, pede uma Pepsi light. Terminada a refeição, Maicon decide ouvir um pouco de música que ele salvou em um pen drive. Então, vai até o carro – uma SUV 2020, recém adquirida -, para uma sessão do melhor rock n’ roll. Logo percebe que está na hora de voltar ao trabalho. No caminho, passa por um outdoor e nota que uma loja de um dos shoppings da cidade está anunciando jeans a um preço muito bom. Decide ligar para a esposa, Jenifer, e contar a novidade. Ela diz que já havia visto e achado tudo muito fashion, mas muito caro.  Um pouco depois, ele chega ao serviço para a segunda parte do expediente. Ele trabalha com marketing. Por volta das 4h30min, já é hora do coffee break. Maicon vai ao Barranco’s bar, uma lanchonete, e pede um hot dog com muito ketchup. O rapaz encontra um amigo tomando Red Bull, mas decide não a fazer o mesmo, pois ficaria muito agitado. Terminado o dia de serviço, volta para casa, encontra sua esposa preparando o jantar, a cumprimenta e vai tomar banho. Fica irritado, pois o shampoo mal deu para lavar o cabelo. Depois, assistem o Big Brother na TV e seu filho mais novo pede para jogar videogame em seu Playstation, mas Maicon diz que já está tarde para jogar.

In Ireland, the song was number one for one week, in New Zealand the song spent five weeks at number one, and in Germany it was six weeks at number one.

Japanese Emperor

    A Japanese emperor has abdicated for the first time in more than 200 years. Emperor Akihito stepped down from the Chrysanthemum Throne on April 30 after 30 years of being the Japanese monarch. He made way for his son Crown Prince Naruhito to become the new emperor. Akihito decided to step down because of his health. At the age of 85, he has been visibly slowing down for the past few years. He has also had a couple of health scares. He believes his son is now better able to carry out the duties of emperor. Emperor Akihito will be remembered for using a personal touch to bring his people together after many national disasters. He continually visited people after earthquakes, tsunami and other tragedies.

    The new Emperor Naruhito became the 126th emperor to ascend the throne of the world's oldest monarchy. Naruhito, 59, spent two years studying at Oxford University. His wife, the new Empress Masako, studied at Harvard University and worked as a diplomat. A traditional ceremony took place as part of the historic handover. In the ceremony, Naruhito received a sacred sword, a jewel and official seals that date back thousands of years. The ceremony took place in the middle of a ten-day Japanese holiday. The traditional Golden Week holiday was extended to allow people to celebrate the new emperor. Millions of Japanese were glued to their TVs and smartphones watching the historic event.

CRIMINALS HAVE SMALLER BRAIN SIZE, SAYS STUDY


        A new study has found that antisocial people are more likely to have smaller areas of their brain. Researchers said criminals' brains had a different structure to the brains of people who followed the law. The study is published in the journal "Lancet Psychiatry". Researchers used data from 672 people born in 1972-73. They looked at records of the people's antisocial behaviour between the ages of seven and 26. At the age of 45, the researchers scanned the people's brains. Eighty of the people had a history of criminal and antisocial behaviour from being early teenagers. Researchers found that the areas of the brain linked to emotions, motivation and behaviour control were smaller in the long-term criminals' brains. 

        Professor Terrie Moffitt, a co-author of the research, said the research could help doctors understand what is behind long-term antisocial behaviour. She said the antisocial people in the study may have behaved badly because of their brain structure. She said: "They are actually operating under some [disability] at the level of the brain." She added that because of this, we needed to care for these people in a kinder way. Lead author Dr Christina Carlisi said: "Differences in brain structure might make it difficult for people to develop social skills. This may prevent them from engaging in antisocial behaviour. These people could benefit from more support throughout their lives."
