  • Relatório Social Infraero | 2004 Infraero Social Report
    Relatório Social Infraero | 2004 Infraero Social Report 1 MENSAGEM DO PRESIDENTE Infraero atingiu, em 2004, sua meta social de desenvolver A pelo menos um projeto em todos os aeroportos que adminis- tra, um marco histórico para a empresa que registramos neste relatório. São 67 ações que atendem a mais de 21 mil pessoas em todo o Brasil. Números inexpressivos em relação ao que gostarí- amos de fazer e às necessidades do país, mas bastante relevantes ao refletirem o engajamento dos funcionários da empresa, aos quais gostaria de agradecer e dedicar este feito. Por trás de cada ação, há a atuação obstinada de funcionários da Infraero, que se dispõem a estender suas jornadas de trabalho num terceiro expediente, em sábados e domingos para ajudar pessoas que sequer conhecem. Abstêm-se do convívio com as suas famílias para se dedicarem a outras, cujas vidas de priva- ção acompanham da janela do escritório sem nunca se acostu- marem ou se conformarem. Um trabalho desinteressado, cuja única gratificação está na esperança de poder contribuir para a construção de uma sociedade mais justa e igualitária. Esta é a principal semente do Programa Infraero Social, desen- volver a solidariedade e fomentar o inconformismo com qual- quer tipo de pobreza e desigualdade. É mostrar que a Infraero não é feita apenas de concreto. É feita de pessoas e, principal- mente, de corações. Carlos Wilson Campos MESSAGE FROM THE PRESIDENT nfraero achieved, in 2004, its social goal of developing at Ileast one project in all the airports that it manages, a historic landmark for the company that we record in this report.

  • Page 1 of 5 Interview: Civil Aviation Minister Wellington Moreira Franco
    Interview: Civil Aviation Minister Wellington Moreira Franco --“I am certain our airports will be ready to handle the World Cup.”— Brazil’s airports will be ready for the soccer World Cup, to be hosted in 12 Brazilian cities starting June 12, but not in accordance with every detail of the government’s original plan for the event. At least one airport will be serviced by temporary facilities. Another will have a contingency plan in place in the wake of a recent power blackout. Longer term, Brazil’s government needs to speed up work on expansion and technical upgrades at some of its airports while simultaneously moving ahead with an ambitious program of private concession auctions. These were the messages from Civil Aviation Minister Wellington Moreira Franco at a recent meeting with investors and reporters. Excerpts follow: • On preparations for the soccer World Cup: “I am certain our airports will be ready to handle the World Cup. I’m confident we won’t have another blackout at Rio’s airport, like the one on April 18, during the World Cup. There’s no risk of blackouts at other Brazilian airports.” • On the blackout at Rio de Janeiro’s international airport: “The airport administration blames the electric company and the electric company blames the airport administration for the blackout. I’m going to make sure there are no more misunderstandings of this nature. Together, the airport administration and the electric company are going to iron out a contingency plan. It’s not that difficult. We’re not going to tolerate another blackout.” • On construction delays at Fortaleza’s airport: “Work (to expand capacity) at the Fortaleza airport is far behind schedule.

  • Following the Trail of the Snake: a Life History of Cobra Mansa “Cobrinha” Mestre of Capoeira
    ABSTRACT Title of Document: FOLLOWING THE TRAIL OF THE SNAKE: A LIFE HISTORY OF COBRA MANSA “COBRINHA” MESTRE OF CAPOEIRA Isabel Angulo, Doctor of Philosophy, 2008 Directed By: Dr. Jonathan Dueck Division of Musicology and Ethnomusicology, School of Music, University of Maryland Professor John Caughey American Studies Department, University of Maryland This dissertation is a cultural biography of Mestre Cobra Mansa, a mestre of the Afro-Brazilian martial art of capoeira angola. The intention of this work is to track Mestre Cobrinha’s life history and accomplishments from his beginning as an impoverished child in Rio to becoming a mestre of the tradition—its movements, music, history, ritual and philosophy. A highly skilled performer and researcher, he has become a cultural ambassador of the tradition in Brazil and abroad. Following the Trail of the Snake is an interdisciplinary work that integrates the research methods of ethnomusicology (oral history, interview, participant observation, musical and performance analysis and transcription) with a revised life history methodology to uncover the multiple cultures that inform the life of a mestre of capoeira. A reflexive auto-ethnography of the author opens a dialog between the experiences and developmental steps of both research partners’ lives. Written in the intersection of ethnomusicology, studies of capoeira, social studies and music education, the academic dissertation format is performed as a roda of capoeira aiming to be respectful of the original context of performance. The result is a provocative ethnographic narrative that includes visual texts from the performative aspects of the tradition (music and movement), aural transcriptions of Mestre Cobra Mansa’s storytelling and a myriad of writing techniques to accompany the reader in a multi-dimensional journey of multicultural understanding.

The USD 62,56- million project will include lengthening and rehabilitation of the runway, the installation of new navigational aids, and enlargement of the passenger terminal. About USD 44 million will be used for the maintenance and rehabilitation of the runway and to extend it by 615 meters (2,000 feet). This will enable the airport to receive heavier and larger aircraft such as the Airbus 330. It will open the airport not only to flights to and from neighbouring countries but also to countries as far away as Peru. The project will be completed in February 2020 and is part of a larger program to upgrade the nation’s airports (see next article below).
