Come and join us on this great world of postcards! You are invited to send us a postcard of your favorite place. Just follow the instructions:

1. Imagine that you are at your favorite place in the whole world;
2. Take another look at the types of postcard senders (The Culture Vulture, The Joker, The indecisive type, The Arty type, The totally tasteless type) on page 74 of Inside Out, and try to identify yourself with one of them;
3. Based on your previous decision, search the web (Flickr, Google Images,Google Maps, your own picture files, other sources) for a great picture (or a selection of pictures) of this place.
4. After finishing the "image" work, write a postcard message describing how you're spending this time at the place. Remember to mention what's best about the place, how long you're staying and how much you miss your classmates.

Thank you in advance!

The citizenship pocket manual

Just outstanding!
Words fail me to describe the quality of such a great report issued by the Brazilian Veja Magazine on its issue # 2137.
Under the title of "Pequeno Manual de Civilidade", the report describes the little advantages of some underestimated virtues, along with analysis from famous sociological cientists.
I would like to recommend its reading to everyone, so all of us can get excellent explanations about important concepts such as honor, integrity, politeness, tolerance, self-control, honesty, among others, all of them so important for the making of a good citizen.
Don't miss it!
