Discoveries of oil off Brazil's coast were cited as justifications for increasing Brazil's navy. While the oil finds will almost certainly increase Brazil's future prosperity, the US sought to turn the strategic dialogue in Brazil away from fantasies that another country — potentially the United States — would try to seize the oil fields to a productive discussion of energy security and the importance of maintaining freedom of the seas. The April 2008 announcement of the reactivation of the US Fourth Fleet caught Brazil by surprise and provoked much negative commentary. Even many Brazilians not prone to accept the wild-eyed theories of U.S. intentions to invade the Amazon suspected that the announcement, coming as it did on the heels of President Lula' s announcement that Brazil had discovered more oil off the Brazilian coast, could not have been a coincidence.

"There is nothing the internet likes more than rumours about Apple products. In the last few days, specifically, it was rumours about the possible appearance of an iWatch. The frenzy of speculation was sparked by an article written by interface expert Bruce Tognazinni, who argued that a watch would "fill a gaping hole in the Apple ecosystem" and herald a new phase in how we interact with technology. The article offered no proof that Apple was working on a watch - or that the device that was rapidly christened an iWatch was even a timekeeper. But the story - true or not - offers a fascinating insight into the rapidly emerging field of wearable computing."
