Teyujagua paradoxa is the name of a new species of reptile that lived 250 million years ago in southern Brazil and was identified thanks to a fossil skull, virtually complete and well preserved, found in the state of Rio Grande. 

The fossil was discovered in early 2015 by a team of paleontologists from the Federal University of Pampa on a rock Triassic (one of the three geological periods of the Age Mosezoica) found near the Brazilian city of Sao Francisco de Assis, as published today March 11, 2016 Scientific Reports, the Nature group. 

This discovery, which helped experts from the Federal University of Pampa (Brazil) and Birmingham (UK) "helps to clarify the initial evolution of the group that gave rise to dinosaurs, pterosaurs (flying reptiles), crocodiles and birds "she explains a statement. 

Teyujagua is a Guarani word that means fierce lizard and refers to a mythological beast called Teju Jagua, which is usually depicted as a dog-headed lizard. The Teyujagua was a quadruped, about 1.5 meters long, with curved teeth very sharp and serrated, indicating that their diet was carnivorous. 

Nostrils the top of the nose is placed, a typical feature of some aquatic animals or semi-aquatic, like today's crocodiles. Its natural habitat is believed to be the banks of rivers and lakes, where hunting amphibians and small reptiles. 

This is a very different fossil others of the same era, because their anatomy is halfway between the most primitive reptiles and the group called Archosauriformes, which includes all dinosaurs and extinct pterosaurs, with crocodiles and current birds. 

The discovery of this fossil is important because the Teyujagua lived after the mass extinction of the Permian-Triassic, which occurred 252 million years ago that wiped out 90% of the species and was probably triggered by a volcanic eruption of great intensity occurring in eastern Russia today. 

The Teyujagua provides new insights into how recovered and developed terrestrial ecosystems after the mass extinction. At that time, the Archosauriformes and their close relatives, as Teyujaguas were the dominant animals of terrestrial ecosystems and eventually led to the dinosaurs. 

Dr. Felipe Pinheiro, of the Federal University of Pampa said the discovery of this new species was "really exciting. Since I saw that beautiful skull for the first time on the ground, still almost completely covered in stone, we knew we had something extraordinary in hands". 

Once in the laboratory, the fossil exceeded the expectations of experts. "It featured a combination of features never seen before, indicating Teyujagua the only position in the evolutionary tree of an important group of vertebrates".

WorldWide Tech & Science. Francisco De Jesús.

Foxconn Electronics (Hon Hai Precision Industry) has finished preparations at its assembly lines for smartphones and tablet PCs in Brazil and is ready to kick off production.

Foxconn's investments in Brazil started in 2002 when the company acquired Finland-based Eimo Oyj and its production lines in Manaus, Brazil.

 As labor costs in China continue to rise, Foxconn has been seeking new production bases, and Brazil's rich labor resources and potential domestic demand have already become major attractions for Foxconn investment.

During the Lunar New Year, Brazil announced that the products manufactured by Foxconn will receive tax relief of 95% until 2014 and Foxconn has also agreed to use 4% of its net profits to invest in R&D in return.

As for rumors that Foxconn may establish panel plants in Brazil.

Brazil: Foxconn to invest US$12B in Brazilian venture

WorldWide Tech & Science.Francisco De Jesús.

Taiwan’s Foxconn – the manufacturer of the Apple iPhone and other high-profile devices - is reportedly poised to invest billions of dollars to expand its operations into Brazil.

According to a Bloomberg report, Brazilian President Dilma Rousseff said Foxconn could spend as much as US$12 billion over the next five to six years to expand production in the country, in what would be the Taiwanese company’s biggest investment overseas.

Foxconn spokesperson Louis Woo said the firm is giving “serious consideration” to further invest in the South American country but has yet to decide on details. Foxconn currently employs 1 million people in China, mainly at its manufacturing base in the southern city of Shenzhen, but wages are climbing, prompting the firm to look at alternatives.

Foxconn already has a Brazilian base where it assembles devices such as notebooks for Hewlett Packard. It is thought that the expansion of this facility and others in the country could create 100,000 jobs in South America’s largest economy. 

Bloomberg notes that the country is already a manufacturing base for the likes of LG and Motorola, the latter building its Xoom tablet devices in Sao Paulo.

Dow Jones Newswires reports separately today that China’s ZTE has also recently signed an agreement to build a new facility in Brazil.

This news are confirming the rumor about it we posted before:

Xperia mini pro chega ao Brasil

Original post in Portugués, You can scroll down for the English and Spanish version:

PORTUGUÉS:
Primeiro foi o Xperia X10, depois o X10 mini e agora, finalmente, a Sony Ericsson completou a família. O Xperia X10 mini pro acaba de chegar ao Brasil com toda sua pequenez e também um teclado QWERTY físico.


Não era novidade que o mini pro chegaria poucos meses depois do mini. Na verdade, a Sony Ericsson já tinha feito o anúncio de que ele não devia demorar. Mesmo assim, não tem como não ficar empolgado. Com excelente desempenho para o seu tamanho, o mini pro era animador, mas dificultava a vida de quem tem dedos mais grossos. Ele só tinha um teclado virtual alfanumérico, ruim para fazer buscas e digitar endereços no browser. O teclado físico do mini pro agora torna a vida mais fácil e praticamente não altera a configuração do aparelho. Mas ainda precisamos ver, com testes, se o teclado desliza com firmeza, se as teclas dão boa resposta ao toque, se têm bom espaçamento etc.

Segundo o site da Sony Ericsson, o teclado deixa o smartphone pouca coisa mais pesado. Mais precisamente, 32 gramas. As medidas também mudam muito pouco. Enquanto o mini tinha 8,3 centímetros de altura por 5 centímetros de largura e 1,6 centímetro de espessura, o telefone com teclado tem 9 centímetros de altura, 5,2 centímetros de largura e 1,7 centímetro de espessura.

De resto, o sistema operacional é o mesmo dos outros Xperia: Android 1.6, a ser atualizado no final do ano. O processador Qualcomm de 600 MHz, a tela de 2,6 polegadas e a interface para integrar mensagens e redes sociais, chamada Timescape, também não mudam em relação ao mini. A câmera é de 5 megapixels, há Wi-Fi, 3G, A-GPS e um cartão microSD de 2 GB incluído.

Falando em preço, o mini pro custa 99 reais a mais que o mini custava em seu lançamento. Enquanto o mini tinha uma etiqueta de 900 reais, o mini pro sai por 999 reais (valor recomendado pelo fabricante). Agora, o mini sai por uma média de 800 reais desbloqueado e o mini pro já é encontrado em lojas a partir de 900 reais desbloqueado).

There was news that the mini pro would come just months after the mini. In fact, Sony Ericsson had already made the announcement that he should not take. Still, can not help but be excited. With excellent performance for its size, the Mini Pro was exciting, but it made life difficult for those with thicker fingers. He just had a virtual keyboard alphanumeric bad to search and enter addresses into your browser. The physical keyboard mini pro now makes life easier and practically does not change the configuration of the device. But we still need to see, with tests, the keyboard slides securely, if the keys give good response to the touch, so if they have good spacing.

According to the site of Sony Ericsson, the keyboard makes the smartphone little heavier. More specifically, 32 grams. The measures also change very little. While the mini had 8.3 cm high by 5 cm wide and 1.6 cm thick, the phone keypad is 9 inches tall, 5.2 cm wide and 1.7 cm thick.

Moreover, the operating system is the same from others Xperia Android 1.6, to be updated at the end of the year. The 600 MHz Qualcomm processor, the 2.6 inch screen and an interface to integrate messaging and social networks, called Timescape, also do not change over the mini. The camera is 5 megapixels, there's Wi-Fi, 3G, A-GPS and a 2 GB microSD card included.

Speaking of price, Mini pro costs 99 dollars more than the mini cost at its launch. While the kids had a tag of 900 dollars, your mini pro sells for 999 reais (manufacturer's recommended value). Now the mini sells for an average of $ 800 unlocked and the mini has been found in pro shops from 900 real unlocked.
