(ESCOLA NAVAL - 2017) Which is the correct way to complete the paragraph below? A change of habits In recent years, dairy milk alternatives made from almonds, soy, cashews and coconuts in popularity. Many people consider them more nutritious than cows milk. Some people them because they have a milk allergy or lactose intolerance. Others choose them for environmental reasons or because they want a vegan diet. Some just like the taste. Cows milk once one of Americas most iconic beverages. But now Americans less of it.

(Esc. Naval 2017) As the Olympics Approaches, a Lesson in Overcoming Adversity Bert R. Mandelbaum, MD July 20, 2016 Ive known a lot of athletes who qualified for the Olympic Games __________ injuries. But I know of only one who is qualified because of an injury. Cliff Meidls story captures the spirit of the Olympics. In November 1986, Cliff, a 20-year-old electrical cables with a jackhammer. An estimated 30,000 surged through his body, exploding bone and cartilage from the inside all the way up to his head. To put that into perspective, electric chairs use only 1500 2000 volts for executions. So its safe to say that Cliff should have died. And he nearly did. His heart stopper. Paramedics were able to get it going again, but they had to resuscitate him on the ways to the hospital. As part of a team with renowned plastic surgeon Malcolm Lesavoy, MD, and others, I got to work reconstructing Cliffs legs. Our best hope was to avoid amputation. But very quickly, we noticed something else going on something that had nothing to with our expertise. Through every step of his painful rehabilitation, Cliff grew more and more determined. He never complained. He just asked, Whats next? Before he had even finished the rehabilitation, Cliff started paddling various watercrafts. The days spent on crutches had already strengthened his upper body, and he took naturally to the sport. The same year in which he was injured, he began competing in canoe and kayak events, and in 1996 he qualified for the Olympic not the Paralympic Games, the Olympic Games. Four years later, in Sydney, Australia, I was overseeing the sport medicine team at the Olympic soccer tournament. I was sitting in the stands during the opening ceremonies when Cliff walked into the Olympic Stadium carrying the Star and Stripes. Its a long-standing tradition for delegations of athletes to select one among their number to bear the flag, and the choice often symbolizes some extraordinary accomplishment. I had no idea that Cliff would be selected. So when he strode into the stadium with a normal gait, I nearly broke down. Moments like that reinforce what I have always believed: that sport can bring out the best in us all. The Olympic Games () are devoted to celebrating the human capacity to improve body, mind, and soul. They are about taking part not necessarily about winning. Cliffs peers in the US delegation of 2000 recognized that when they elected him to bear the nations colors. He never won a medal at the games, but the spirit with which he overcame adversity inspired all of them. The Olympic motto faster, higher, stronger can help our patients realize that the real victory is the win, within. The Win Within: Capturing Your Victorious Spirit is the name of the book I wrote to show people that coming back from adversity is part of our heritage that we as human beings are more adapted to adversity than we are to success. Adversity is the engine of unimagined opportunity. It can unleash our energy and stimulate our will. It moves us to succeed. If I dont have food, I have to go get some. If Im cold, I have to build a shelter. I remind patients who dont participate in sports that they have the heritage of athletes. We all have the genes of pursuit-hunters who survived by running down their prey and running away from their predators. Thats why even now, in 2016, when we go out and take a run, we feel good. We get an endorphin surge and our lipids go down. Our hearts and brains become clear. The life on sport and sport of life are interlinked. Exercise is our birthright; its our legacy; its why we are here. We no longer have to fear saber-toothed tigers or cave bears. Bu when you look today at how people can be successful in 2016, its by avoiding the predators in our urban life: overeating, inactivity, and smoking. Ad its by rising to meet adversity.

(Esc. Naval 2017) Too many third graders cant read this sentence 9 Feb. 2017 Editors Picks Two-thirds of U.S. third graders face challenges that will impact their future, including academic struggles that could lead to dimmer academic and career prospects. Sadly, only one in three U.S. students demonstrates reading proficiency at the end of third grade. This has alarming consequences for these children, and for our country. A report released today from the Business Roundtable (BRT) shed light on this troubling trend in American education, and advises business leaders on how they can help put more children on a path to success. () Ive heard it said that before third grade, students are learning to read, while after third grade, theyre reading to learn. Grade three is a crossroads in a lifes journey. If youve read this far, then you understand why is so important. Not enough of our young learners can say the same. I encourage you to read the BRT report. As you read, please consider ways to help our schools and our teachers keep students on paths to bright futures. Leave your comments below Michael Jonas Really, all I read was blabla wa wa wa. Are you Charlie Browns teacher? If we cant understand our children who are crying out for help and direction, then there is a something wrong with you. Please go back and check yourself! They are worth so much more. Rick Shire Thanks for sharing. With two young children, I increasingly think about the importance of early childhood education. Pre-k care is far too inaccessible, ultimately magnifying from the earliest stages of life. Tom Frank What exactly is education? Academic education doesnt make someone a better person or even a better employee. I would guess that anything we learn in the education process is at the most 10% useful to us as people. Education should teach academia but also life skills such as budgeting, EQ skills, languages etc., all the elements to be a successful person and not necessarily a successful professional.
