During the first week of November 2025, meteorologists started tracking the strengthening of winds that moved across the southern coast of Brazil. However, what most people didn’t expect was that it would turn out to be one of the most damaging extratropical cyclones the region has experienced in years. By the time the storm made landfall, neighborhoods were underwater, power lines lay tangled in the streets, and entire communities were cut off from the rest of the country. 

We are finally heading into December, so toss out your pumpkins and skeletons and dust off your trees and mistletoes — Christmas season has finally arrived. As we move towards the end of the year, the sound of holiday songs starts to flood the streets, malls start to crowd with eager family members buying gifts, and all products on supermarket shelves get replaced by panettone. Oh, how good it feels to be back to the best time of the year! Holiday spirit has truly started to

Have you ever walked into a room, or been in a situation that you feel you have already experienced? Science calls this sensation Déjà vu, and it might be more common than you think. According to the doctor Drauzio Varella, more than 70% of people have, or will experience Déjà vu at least once in their lives. The term Déjà vu in french means "already seen”, which is science, describes one of the most fascinating mysteries of the human mind, with no one until now knowing exact

This holiday issue could not be complete without the mention of a beautiful event, celebrated by a variety of members of our EABH community: Hanukkah.  The word Hanukkah - sometimes spelled Chanukah - means “dedication” in Hebrew. According to the Hebrew calendar, Hanukkah is an eight-day festival celebrated by the Jewish community around November or December.  This holiday celebrates the rededication of the Second Temple in Jerusalem. During the second century BCE,  the Sele

Recently, in December 2023, a law was ratified, making Black Awareness Day an official Brazilian national holiday. November 20th marks one of the most significant dates in the long  lasting and resilient fight against oppression experienced by the black community in Brazil.

COP 30 will be held from November 10 to 21, 2025, in Belém, the capital of Pará. This is the first time Brazil will host a COP, although the idea of the COP was first conceived during Rio-92.  The COP is one of the most important conferences that determines the international direction of climate change measures, bringing together national governments, local authorities, businesses, civil society, and experts to build consensus and accelerate action.

Christmas is a celebration of Jesus Christ’s birthday. If that's the case, how does Santa fit into  the narrative? Santa Claus is known for being a symbol of Christmas: a cheerful old man with red clothes that brings gifts to children who’ve behaved well  throughout the year. However,  he has not always been portrayed as such. The name “Santa” comes from  Saint Nicholas, a Greek bishop born 280 AD in the region that is now Turkey. Nicholas came from a wealthy family and rece

MMA is a rapidly growing sport in 2025, and the biggest organization of this sport is the UFC (Ultimate Fighting Championship). Throughout all of its history, Brazilians achieved a winning record with various champions and ranked fighters. Amongst them are Charles (Du Bronx) Oliveira, Alex (Poatan) Pereira, Alexandre (The Cannibal) Pantoja, and Johnny Walker. Although the sport’s popularity was rising on the global stage, the performances of Brazilian fighters had been disap

Recently, there have been multiple reported cases in Brazil of people intoxicated by a substance called methanol after ingesting alcoholic beverages.

The primary ingredient found in alcoholic beverages is ethanol, which sources the effects of alcohol consumption.

More than thirty years later, Vale Tudo  is back, and it feels like Brazilians have traveled back in time. The remake of the telenovela, aired by Globo since March of 2025, has been captivating both those who watched the original version and those who are discovering it for the first time. It is intriguing, but also remarkable, that a story created in 1988 remains so relevant in 2025. It makes us wonder: Why does a plot about power, ambition, and morality still hold our atten

It is not new information that Israel and the Palestinian people have been in conflict, as their war has been going on for more than a century. The real question is, why?
