Despite recently calling for the abolishment of the Environmental Protection Agency, asking for speedy implementation of offshore drilling in the Arctic, and favoring a policy of loose restrictions on coal mining, potential 2012 presidential candidate Newt Gingrich has repeatedly recognized the threat of global climate change in the past.
According to the New York Times, in 2007 Gingrich indicated to PBS that he would "strongly support" a carbon dioxide cap-and-trade system. The former House Speaker affirmed:
"I think if you have mandatory carbon caps combined with a trading system, much like we did with sulfur, and if you have a tax-incentive program for investing in the solutions, that there's a package there that's very, very good," he said. "And frankly, it's something I would strongly support???"
Moreover, in 2008, Gingrich was featured in a commercial with then House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, urging Congress for immediate action on climate change. In the 30-second advertisement, Gingrich stated, "???we do agree, our country must take action to address climate change."
Gingrich's duplicitous policies on energy seem to follow any way the wind blows.

The immigrant´s Self being is constituted of its experiences and relationships gathered at the beginning of their journey living abroad from their home country. Thus any immigrant is subjected to continuous process of transmutation and resilience. This research emphasis the construction of the Brazilian female student´s identity as a temporary immigrant, living in Portugal and specifically in Coimbra. The research is framed in a student campaign, "Lista Reset à AAC", developed in the academic year of 2013/2014 with topics such as xenophobia, sexism, racism and homophobia. The research also attempt to evaluate the On-line campaign repercussion and its relation to the Brazilian student´s self-identity. Theoretical framework on immigrant social construction and immigrant theories were built upon authors such as Stuart Hall (1980), Morley (2001), Vermeulen (2001), Portes (2004), Ferin (2012) and Santos (2013). In order to understand the Portuguese media and young Brazilian profile it was used authors such as Baudrillard (2011), Canclini (1995), Appadurai (1996), Deleuze & Guattari (2000), Orozco (2001), Ferin & Santos (2006) and reports. The 14 answers for the On-line interviews spanning different ages were used to establish life path, personal details and migrational path. Further more the On-line data from Google enable to evaluate the campaign repercussion. 2016-08-15T14:15:22-07:00 http://portuguese-diaspora-studies.com/index.php/ijpds/thesis/view/200 Ethics and aesthetics of irony in José Rodrigues Miguéis's fiction 2015-04-30T08:21:04-07:00 Georges Da Costa Etudes du monde lusophone, Université Sorbonne Nouvelle – Paris 3

José Rodrigues Miguéis (1901-1980) leaves Portugal in 1935 and, despite several attempts to come back, he spends most of his life in the United States. This exile, mostly due to his political activities against the Salazar regime, will deeply influence his fictional work. Indeed, on the one hand, his ethical concerns as an activist strongly riddle his narratives which very often obey a global literary strategy with an educational intention where classical and satirical irony is a tool of choice. On the other hand, he regularly shows a critical attitude towards the self and towards the real and often stages his doubts and questionings through another irony, romantic and modern, using literary techniques pointing out a reflexive relationship to creation. The paradox constituting any irony – to say at the same time adhesion and detachment – is thus exacerbated by the presence of those two contradictory ironies, often in the same work. This study aims to prove that the particular nature of the Migueisian fiction lies in the simultaneous presence of those two ironies: a fiction considered as a playground characterized by ambiguity, where the writer plays with the conventions of literature, with genres, with the character/narrator/author categories that he tends to mix up all together and, above all, with the autobiographical dimension, which really plays a predominant role. The classical irony and the romantic and modern one then reveal themselves as the two literary faces of the same identitary drama, that of an exiled writer who wishes to be and is, above all, Portuguese. 2015-04-30T08:21:04-07:00 http://portuguese-diaspora-studies.com/index.php/ijpds/thesis/view/199 The Portuguese Language in Trinidad and Tobago: A Study of Language Shift and Language Death 2014-05-18T21:03:27-07:00 Jo-Anne Sharon Ferreira Modern Languages and Linguistics, The University of the West Indies, St Augustine
September, 1999

Once a living language in Trinidad, Portuguese is no longer considered by its speakers and their descendants to be vital to their existence. The Portuguese speech community became vulnerable to language imposition from the wider society, and Portuguese itself has been fully displaced by English. The process of language death spanned two to three generations, resulting from the intertwining of psychological and social causes – particularly member core values, and the pressure of assimilation. The Portuguese language survived in only a few Trinidadian families which are the products of twentieth century immigration, or in which each generation had at least one immigrant. An analysis of the community's history and demographics serves to show unstable levels of immigration, as well as social mixing that took place through intermarriage. Linguistic change and loss ultimately resulted from such intermixtures, and the community was left exposed to the linguistic norms and values of the outer society, which it adopted to the neglect of its own. Lexico-semantic and phonological analyses of the language spoken by creoles show evidence of language atrophy in progress, compared to the language brought by the Madeirans. The few lexico-semantic domains that remain are now disappearing. The informants exhibit varying levels of knowledge of the language. The analysis shows systematic linguistic changes, including regular patterns of reduction, as well as isolated changes at the individual level. Within the contact situation, English was perceived as the language of power, prestige, and possibilities for advancement, which militated against language maintenance in the Portuguese community. The low social status of the original migrants was passed on to the language which was also locally devalued. Language attitudes, in combination with socio-historical factors, are the causes of the shift to English and of the death of Portuguese in Trinidad and Tobago. 2014-05-18T21:03:27-07:00 http://portuguese-diaspora-studies.com/index.php/ijpds/thesis/view/198 Four writers being political on their own terms : feminist, class and cultural identity discourses across continents (Mia Couto, Jose Saramago, Clarice Lispector, J.M. Coetzee) 2013-05-25T14:39:49-07:00 Irene Marques Modern languages, University of Toronte
May, 2005

This study is a discussion revolving around three different issues: class, feminist and cultural identity discourses (the latter in relation to race, nation, colonialism and economic imperialism). I analyze works by four different writers: the Mozambican Mia Couto, the Portuguese Jose Saramago, the Brazilian Clarice Lispector and the South African J.M. Coetzee. My intention is to demonstrate that all these four writers are political in the sense that they bring to the forefront important issues pertaining to the power of literature to represent, misrepresent and debate issues related to the postcolonial subject, the poor Other, and the feminine subject. The second section, entitled "The Deeper Politics of Agency in Lispector and Cotezee" addresses two works by the aforementioned writers and aims at illustrating how they are also political, but in a different way. Here the focus of analysis is on the meta-discursive as the main politics of agency. I show how Lispector and Coetzee use their novels as the site to question the limits of the power of narrative representation. On the one hand, I argue that due to class and racial differences, the narrator/implied author cannot represent the poor and coloured Other accurately. On the other hand, I argue that because language is a medium that potentially imprisons the individual in artificial, constructed categories linked to power structures---a medium always polluted by socio-political ideologies that often discriminate against one group (or quality) in favor of another---the writer has no possibility of telling the ultimate truth about the narrated subject through conventional, discursive, narrative strategies and thus needs to resort to paradoxical narrative strategies such as silence, music, poetic language, and ambivalent metaphors. The theoretical approach used for my analysis is multifaceted relying on post-colonial, feminist, Marxist, psychoanalytical, Levinasian, Heideggerian, Buddhist and various language theories. The use of different theories serves to illustrate how different theoretical traditions (from West, East, North and South) share several commonalities. Specifically, I point to some of the commonalities between Western psychoanalysis, Jungian psychology, ecriture feminine, Levinasian, Irigaraian and Heideggerian philosophy, Buddhism and African epistemologies. The first section, entitled "The Bolder Politics of Agency in Couto and Saramago" addresses the politicality of two works by these writers: Couto's collection of short stories Contos do Nascer da Terra ('Stories of the Birth of the Land') and Saramago's novel O Ano da Morte de Ricardo Reis ('The Year of the Death of Ricardo Reis'). In this section I argue that Couto and Saramago take a bolder political stand vis-a-vis socio-political concerns, when compared with Lispector and Coetzee. I suggest that the former are politically more direct in their works than the latter in the sense that they seem generally to see their writings as a medium which can more or less fairly represent and critique the reality of the oppressed person, be it the colonized/postcolonial subject, the woman, or the poor Other. 2013-05-25T14:39:49-07:00 http://portuguese-diaspora-studies.com/index.php/ijpds/thesis/view/197 A Emigração Clandestina do Sotavento do Algarve para Marrocos Durante o Estado Novo 2013-05-25T14:39:30-07:00 Maria do Livramento Dias Faculdade de Ciências Humanas e Sociais, University of Algarve

«With this study paper it is my intention to contribute for a better knowledge of the algarvian society during the period of the « Estado Novo», exploring one of the aspects that characterize it best: the clandestine emigration. One should always bear in mind that this is a complex and contradictory theme, for which precise statistical data is needed. This obstacle has contributed for the depths of the study of this social issure which has been cycling and constant throughout history. Migration associated to smuggling exits along the borders of countries since remote time in history, and has originated a link among individuals and communities which has allowed them to survive through rough periods in history. This link has expanded to the «Sotavento Algarvio» areas for reasons of social and economical nature, which led me to analyze several criminal procedure files from 1933 to 1974, during the «Estado Novo» period, from the judicial districts of Vila Real de Santo António, Tavira, Olhão and Faro. In these procedures the accused had different social roles, some were «illegal emigrants» who went to Spain, Morocco and Gibraltar, because they lacked working and subsistence conditions in their country and found a job in those countries similar to the one they had where they used to live, that is to say, jobs related to agriculture, fishing and blue collar jobs in construction, canned goods industry and similar. Others were «recruiters» who dedicated to the crime of alluring clandestine emigration, and others were called «engajadores» and they allured and transported emigrants illegally. This analysis is completed with the political, economical and social contextualization with the identification of the origin and destination of this illegal emigration, and with the relation of other aspects such as smuggling and borders. The migrations are still a major key factor for the changing process and social evolution, and are thus a theme that conducts to fascinating paths of social and anthropological research.» 2013-05-25T14:39:30-07:00

New research conducted at the University of Oregon shows that people who believe in a loving and merciful God are more prone to cheat than those who believe in a punishing God. Psychologists Azim Shariff and Ara Norenzayan said their research suggests a belief in a forgiving God will not necessarily stop undergraduate students from cheating on exams. To test the theory, the psychologists set up an experiment where they told students during a math test that a software glitch would allow them to see the answer unless they pressed the space bar almost as soon as they saw the question.
Shariff said, overall, the study found no difference in cheating between believers and non-believers, but the main difference was what kind of god a person believed in. He added, "What we found is that those people who see God as a more punitive, angry, vengeful God, they tend to—in a laboratory-based cheating measure –they cheat a lot less, whereas people who believe in God as a comforting, loving agent, forgiving agent seem to cheat more."

Credit Suisse: Bullish on Gold
- Details
- Monday, 15 August 2016 16:53
The analysts of precious metals at Credit Suisse are among the most bullish on gold. How they are keeping the fire going.
Gold has appreciated about a third so far this year – forcing a great many research units of banks to reevaluate their recommendations for the precious metal.
The analysts at Credit Suisse (CS) have done so with great enthusiasm. The raised their target price for an ounce of gold for the coming two years.
Bold Recommendations
The bank's analysts expect the ounce to costs $1,500 by the spring of 2017. In April, their estimate still was $150 lower. Gold currently costs $1,350 per ounce. CS precious metals experts were already bullish – and now they are upping the stakes further.
Their newest recommendations seems particularly bold: the bank made buy recommendations for various gold mine shares. These securities not only are notoriously volatile. They also have increased substantially over the past months, some of them by more than 200 percent.
This suggests that they are already overbought.
Cost Cuts, New Reserves
But CS still sees potential for the shares of Barrick Gold, Newmont Mining, Yamana Gold, Agnico-Eagle Mines and Alamos Gold.
CS expects for the mentioned companies either a round of cost cuts or the exploitation of new reserves of the precious metal, according to a report on «24/7 Wall Street».

About Us
Lutheran Foundation of Texas (LFOT) was founded in 1960 in response to a donor whose desire was to give a tract of real estate to the Texas District of The Lutheran Church – Missouri Synod (LCMS). Since then, we have grown into a full-service planned giving foundation managing $41 million of assets held in more than 400 accounts. We operate as a charitable, non-profit, tax-exempt ministry. Through our mission we help individuals and families, congregations, and agencies provide planned gifts to Christian ministries and other charities. In 2015 we distributed $1.8 million for that purpose.
