Sabrina Sato deixa barrigão de fora em ensaio da Vila Isabel; veja fotos

29 October 2026 at 11:08

A apresentadora Sabrina Sato, 45, marcou presença no ensaio de rua da escola de samba Unidos de Vila Isabel, no Rio de Janeiro, na noite da última quarta-feira (28). Rainha de bateria da azul e branco da zona norte carioca, ela mostrou o samba no pé e deixou o barrigão de gravidez à mostra.

Para acompanhar o evento, a majestade investiu em uma fantasia composto por top e calcinha com aplicações de búzios, conchas, pedras e franjas metalizadas. A criação foi assinada por Victor Hugo Matos, conhecido pelo trabalho artesanal ligado à folia e que já trabalhou com nomes internacionais como Katseye.

Em 2027, a agremiação vai levar para a Marquês de Sapucaí o enredo “Torto Arado – Sobre a Terra Há de Viver Sempre o Mais Forte”, inspirado no romance homônimo de Itamar Vieira Junior.

Criado pelos carnavalescos Gabriel Haddad e Leonardo Bora, em parceria com o pesquisador Vinicius Natal, o desfile acontece no domingo, 7 de fevereiro, sendo a quarta e última escola a se apresentar pelo Grupo Especial.

O próximo ano também será especial para Sabrina, que será enredo da Herdeiros da Vila, escola de samba mirim ligada à Unidos de Vila Isabel.

Com o título batizado de “Na coroa da Herdeiros, brilha Sabrina!”, a ideia, assinada por Sidney Rocha, promete contar a trajetória da ex-BBB a partir do olhar de uma menina do Morro dos Macacos, onde está localizada a quadra da agremiação mãe, em que a influenciadora é rainha de bateria.

Quando a IA deixa de ser uma ferramenta e começa a mudar o negócio

29 October 2026 at 00:06

Experimentar e transformar são coisas diferentes. Uma equipa automatiza relatórios, outra cria um assistente para clientes e outra testa agentes de IA. Cada iniciativa pode gerar valor, mas a sua soma não é, por si só, uma estratégia de IA.

A adoção da IA nas organizações tende a evoluir por etapas. Primeiro, transforma tarefas: a análise fica mais rápida, o conteúdo mais barato e o trabalho administrativo mais simples. Depois, transforma workflows: as tarefas recombinam-se, as responsabilidades alteram-se, e as pessoas passam a supervisionar processos parcialmente executados por máquinas. A terceira etapa é a estratégica: a IA muda a forma como os clientes pesquisam, escolhem e compram e, com isso, o modelo de negócio pode começar a mudar.

O retalho é um bom exemplo. Durante décadas, empresas como a Amazon ganharam força ao reunir descoberta, comparação, transação e entrega. Os agentes de IA podem voltar a separá-las. Imaginemos um consumidor a pedir a um agente de IA: “Encontra-me os melhores ténis de corrida até 150 euros, compara as opções e compra o melhor par.” O retalhista continua a ter o produto e a assegurar a entrega, mas outro ator passa a influenciar o momento mais valioso: decidir o que comprar. Isto já tem peso económico: o tráfego enviado por IA para retalhistas cresce rapidamente, e a própria Amazon já investe fortemente em compras com agentes.

A questão vai além do uso interno nas empresas: os líderes têm de perceber como a IA pode mudar a relação com os clientes, que atividades se tornam commodities e onde estará a vantagem competitiva.

Escalar a IA exige, por isso, responder a três perguntas: onde pode a IA melhorar a eficiência hoje? Que workflows devemos redesenhar a seguir? E que partes do modelo de negócio poderá a IA transformar amanhã?

Aqui a conversa passa da tecnologia para a estratégia. Os líderes têm de decidir que capacidades querem manter internamente, e quais “comprar”, onde o julgamento humano continua a ser indispensável, e que posições no seu ecosystem não podem perder.

As competências também contam. Saber escrever prompts já não chega: é preciso saber quando confiar na IA, quando a questionar e como combiná-la com o julgamento humano. Enquanto Diretor Académico do The Lisbon MBA Católica|Nova, vejo-o refletido no ensino da gestão: a IA deve servir não só para aumentar a produtividade, mas para desafiar os alunos, enquanto líderes, a questionar resultados, comparar alternativas e justificar melhor as suas decisões. Compreender a tecnologia é importante, mas a sua maior responsabilidade será redesenhar organizações e decidir onde a IA deve, ou não, transformar o negócio.

É também, por isso, que o número de projetos-piloto deixa de ser uma boa medida de maturidade, se não for acompanhado de uma estratégia clara. A vantagem duradoura não será das organizações com mais pilotos, mas das que avançarem deliberadamente das ferramentas para os processos e destes para as escolhas de modelo de negócio.

As ferramentas continuarão a mudar. A verdadeira tarefa estratégica é perceber o que deve mudar com elas, e o que deve permanecer distintivamente seu.

Theodoro é o novo muso do Salgueiro para o Carnaval 2027

28 October 2026 at 15:27

A escola de samba Acadêmicos do Salgueiro anunciou, nesta quarta-feira (28), o influenciador Felipe Theodoro como novo muso da agremiação para o Carnaval de 2027. Essa é a primeira vez que o criador de conteúdo ocupa o posto na folia.

Sabrina Sato será enredo de escola mirim no RJ para 2027

28 October 2026 at 12:46

A apresentadora Sabrina Sato, 45, será enredo da Herdeiros da Vila, escola de samba mirim ligada à Unidos de Vila Isabel, no Rio de Janeiro, para o Carnaval de 2027.

Com o título batizado de “Na coroa da Herdeiros, brilha Sabrina!”, a ideia assinada pelo carnavalesco Sidney Rocha, promete contar a trajetória da ex-BBB a partir do olhar de uma menina do Morro dos Macacos, onde está localizada a quadra da agremiação mãe, em que a influenciadora é rainha de bateria.

Em comunicado, Sabrina compartilhou a importância de ter sua história contada na Marquês de Sapucaí. “Eu estou muito emocionada porque a Vila faz parte da minha vida de verdade. São quinze anos vivendo a escola, a quadra, a comunidade e tudo o que acontece muito além do Carnaval. Eu sempre digo que ali encontrei uma família”.

Sato começou sua história na Vila Isabel em 2011, quando assumiu o posto frente aos ritmistas da Swingueira de Noel. Em 2020, no entanto, ela assumiu o título de rainha da escola. Um ano depois, em 2021, Sabrina retornou oficialmente ao posto de rainha de bateria, mantendo-se na função desde então.

“Chiesi a Tomba perché dopo gli sci non facesse altro. Disse che aveva dedicato la vita allo sport e non voleva fare lo scemo in giro con cose che non gli competevano”: così Gioele Dix

24 October 2026 at 10:30

Cosa resta quando i ricordi si fanno più labili? E come si fa a tenere stretti fatti e parole, quelli lontani come quelli di ieri? Se lo chiede Gioele Dix nel suo nuovo spettacolo, “Arrivato a questo punto”, in tournée nei teatri italiani. L’attore affronta con leggerezza un tema che leggero non è: la memoria e i suoi improvvisi vuoti.

Il suo personaggio prova a rimettere insieme chi è partendo dal suono: musiche, voci, persino rumori di fondo che appartengono alla sua storia personale. Il percorso è fatto di slanci e inciampi. Si va da una barzelletta rimasta a metà ai racconti del padre, scampato all’Olocausto. Nel mezzo, voci umane ed effetti sonori si intrecciano, con sinfonie delicate che convivono con ronzii fastidiosi.

Ne nasce un’indagine interiore intensa e ironica, in cui lo spettatore può riconoscersi e, forse, trarre anche un po’ di conforto. Lo spettacolo è inoltre un omaggio al teatro stesso, arte antica che sa far vedere senza ricorrere alle immagini, e senza abusarne.

“Vorrei essere meno inquieto. Ma soprattutto meno pigro: la mattina, per me, è come se dovessi scalare una montagna; il pomeriggio mi sento in piano; la sera scendo con gli sci sulla pista nera” così si presenta l”attore a Sette de Il Corriere della Sera.

Il ricordo va alla caricatura di Alberto Tomba per la Gialappa’s Band: “Curiosamente, pur essendo lui un personaggio all’apparenza molto spavaldo, è riservatissimo, e infatti dopo che smise di sciare non fece altro. Una volta gli chiesi il per- ché e lui rispose che aveva dedicato la vita allo sci e che non voleva fare lo scemo in giro con cose che non gli competevano”.

E ancora: “I Gialappi mi avevano contattato lo scorso anno per GialappaShow, ma poi non se ne è fatto nulla. Però ho preso parte al docufilm di Walter Veltroni che racconta la loro storia”.

L'articolo “Chiesi a Tomba perché dopo gli sci non facesse altro. Disse che aveva dedicato la vita allo sport e non voleva fare lo scemo in giro con cose che non gli competevano”: così Gioele Dix proviene da Il Fatto Quotidiano.

A Ph.D. led me to my dream job at Intel. At age 41, I started an MBA because I realised I was still missing key skills.

  • Mihirkant Upadhyaya has a Ph.D. and more than 10 years of experience at Intel.
  • But at age 41, he embarked on gaining another degree to level up in his career.
  • Upadhyaya says that doing an MBA equips him with skills that AI lacks.

This as-told-to essay is based on a conversation with Mihirkant Upadhyaya, 42, who works at Intel and lives in Oregon. The following has been edited for length and clarity. Business Insider has verified his employment and education.

After studying computer engineering for my bachelor's, I pivoted into physics.

Two master's degrees and a Ph.D. in nanoscale science and engineering later, I got my dream job in the semiconductor industry at Intel in 2015.

As my career evolved, I realized I also wanted to do an MBA to step up my game.

My Ph.D. gave me relevant skills to take on the workforce

During my Ph.D., I focused on a semiconductor manufacturing technology called EUV lithography. I was excited to work at Intel because it does both chip design and manufacturing, so I knew I'd get a good overview of the chip-making process.

You don't need a Ph.D. to work in semiconductors, as there are so many areas outside the lab you can work in, like finance and legal.

On a personal level, though, having a Ph.D. helped me feel prepared to step into the workforce. It gave me discipline and the ability to be comfortable with ambiguity. My research mindset and technical background gave me the confidence to take ownership of outcomes and tasks.

There were definitely moments where I had self-doubt doing a Ph.D. You watch your peers go on to earn big bucks after their bachelor's and master's while you live on a modest stipend. However, the experience shaped me into who I am. I'd say I'm more patient, sharper, and more resilient.

I reached a stage where I felt I needed more education to thrive in my job

After about five years in research and development at Intel, I moved into supply chain roles, which have involved managing relationships and negotiating contracts. At this point, I realized I was missing certain skills.

My current role has a greater emphasis on executive communication and financial analysis. When I presented to an executive team, my manager had to step in on a number of occasions to get the room to respond, making what I was saying more high-level using business-driven terms. I also didn't quite understand certain things when I worked with the finance teams on contract negotiations.

To step up my game, I started a two-year hybrid MBA course in September 2025, alongside my full-time job. It was energizing to get back to the classroom at age 41.

I take one week off a quarter to do in-person sessions, and the rest of the time I'm doing online learning three days a week. My company is partly funding this, which is useful since MBAs can carry a $100,000 price tag.

By the time I've finished my MBA, I'll have done nine years of postgraduate study, investing an estimated $100,000 into that education, aside from scholarships and tuition waivers. Without question, it's been worth it. I haven't pursued the degrees to accumulate credentials, but to serve my career at various stages of my life. The MBA is addressing a concrete skills gap I identified after years in my industry.

I believe higher education is helping me become more irreplaceable in the age of AI

The AI boom made me take a hard look at what I bring to the table. I saw that some of what I did could eventually be automated. That realization was humbling.

Instead of trying to compete with what AI is already good at, I wanted to strengthen the areas where I knew it fell short. AI is great at processing and analyzing information. It has scale and speed, but it lacks the truly insightful judgment that a person can gain from years of learning a skill.

In my previous role at Intel, I found that AI couldn't tell me how to troubleshoot issues involving new or custom-made equipment because the context was so unique to my situation.

Meanwhile, in my current role, while AI could probably help me generate financial models, it can't read the room, build relationships, or have synergy with another person. My MBA course benefits me in this regard because we do lots of group activities, even online through Zoom, where we can interact with each other.

I think that in the age of AI, finding a field you really care about, becoming an expert in it, and staying curious to keep learning can help you become irreplaceable.

Intel declined to comment in response to a request from Business Insider.

Trump’s EPA Allows Bayer/Monsanto to Choose Their Own Regulations on Deadly Herbicides

24 September 2026 at 02:49

Health Impact News

Earlier this year I reported how President Trump issued an executive order mandating domestic production of glyphosate-based herbicides for use in agriculture and the military.

See:

Trump Issues EO to Produce More Glyphosate Herbicide in the U.S. After Bayer Settles Cancer Lawsuits for Hundreds of $Millions

Then, just a few days later, I reported how the current U.S. Farm bill is seeking to give legal immunity to Bayer for harm caused by glyphosate.

WAR ON FOOD! Trump Administration Traitors Lobbying for Bayer to Poison our Food with Glyphosate

Now it is being reported that Trump’s Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) has allowed Bayer/Monsanto to choose their own regulations they are willing to abide by for another destructive herbicide, dicamba.

The Guardian has picked up this story.

US environment agency let Bayer pick regulations for destructive weedkiller, documents show

Environmental Protection Agency asked firm to choose rules it wanted for dicamba, then put the choices in a proposed federal rule

The EPA allowed pesticide giant Bayer to pick from a menu of regulation options for the controversial and destructive weedkiller dicamba, newly released internal agency documents show.

The documents provide an unusually clear look into the process of developing pesticide regulations, which is typically done out of public view.

It shows in detail how the EPA asked Bayer which regulations it wanted, received a response from Bayer, then put Bayer’s choices into a proposed federal rule.

Dicamba is drift prone and kills vegetation and crops for miles around fields where it is sprayed, and is linked to liver cancer and Non-Hodgkin lymphoma.

Courts have twice ordered it off the market because of its drift problems, but the EPA has re-approved it.

Full article.

If you want to learn more about the herbicide dicamba, here are a couple of articles about the history of the use of this dangerous herbicide in the U.S. that the EPA continues to allow:

Dicamba Drift Turned Neighbors Into Enemies. EPA Just Brought It Back.

Dicamba: Concerns about cancer and crop damage

It has been well documented that Trump’s EPA in his second term is run by former industry insiders and lobbyists from the very industry it is supposed to regulate. See:

Who’s Running Trump’s EPA?

Not only are they seeking to give legal protection to Bayer for their dangerous herbicides which have been ruled in the U.S. Courts to cause cancer and other diseases, they have also removed regulations for power plants that pollute the air so that data centers can be built very quickly to fuel the energy needed for more AI development.

These actions are being sold to the Conservative MAGA movement as necessary to roll back “climate change” regulations by “the liberals” which they claim are based on bad science, and hamper industry development.

But these actions have nothing to do with fighting back against the “climate change agenda”, and have everything to do with enriching the pockets of Trump’s friends in the industry who do not want to be regulated anymore for purely economic reasons that have nothing to do with the environment or the health of the U.S. population.

Americans from both sides of the political spectrum are now opposing things like these data center developments, so don’t fall for the partisan political games!

Know Where Your Food Comes From

It is getting more and more dangerous to purchase food from the big box retailers stocking commodity food. Your beef could be from Argentina from shipments that were rejected by China (source), and much of the food you purchase could be contaminated with chemicals that have been banned in most other countries and have been legally shown to cause disease in a court of law.

Your government here in the U.S. is NOT looking out for you! So you need to become a health-conscious consumer, and try to purchase food where you know where it came from and how it was produced.

My own online story, Healthy Traditions, provides options for food produced by small-scale family farmers where we have thoroughly tested it.

We are sourcing more and more of our food from outside the U.S., due to necessity. Starting this year, 2026, we are only purchasing grains from Italy, where their standards for food are far superior to the USDA national organics program.

We stopped participating in the USDA organic program years ago, due to the influence of Big Food that has watered down the standards and still allows trace amounts of herbicides and pesticides. See:

Big Food has Taken Over the USDA National Organic Program – Why I am no Longer Importing Certified Organic Food

Click or tap to expand.

We have consistently tested products in the U.S. that claim to be “organic” or “GMO free” and have routinely found these products contaminated with dangerous herbicides like glyphosate, and GMO DNA.

And they are not even violating USDA organic standards.

In Europe, and especially in Italy, if someone makes a claim to having a European organic certification and then those products are tested to be contaminated, they lose their license to sell, and face criminal charges, unlike the U.S.

Americans have no one to blame for the sad state of our food and food production here in the U.S., however, except themselves, because the American consumer still has the largest voice and the most influence when it comes to food standards.

But people buy in to the partisan political debates and falsely think they can just vote the right person into power to solve their problems.

The most effective way, however, to bring about change, is by voting with your dollars and where you spend your money.

This is the only thing that will affect change, but it takes a lot more effort to seek out ethical food producers in your community and support them instead. It is just so much easier to stop at the Big Box grocery stores where you can get all your shopping done in minutes.

Convenience has a price: and it may cost you your life.
