			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>&#8220;Mens agitat molem&#8221; &#8211; Mind drives matter.<br />
This phrase from Eneida, the epic novel by Vergílio, is the first &#8220;mind teaser&#8221; from &#8220;Mensagem&#8221;, a book by Fernando Pessoa. The title contains some random (?) letters from Virgílio&#8217;s phrase &#8211; <strong>Mens ag</strong>itat mol<strong>em</strong>, giving a clue about the mindset behind this masterpiece.<br />
I&#8217;m a huge fan of this motto, since it&#8217;s a tricky &#8220;facelift&#8221; of the famous &#8220;Cogito ergo sum&#8221;. The major difference is the final goal &#8211; <strong>to act</strong>, therefore I am. </p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Gosto da forma como os mapas do metro de Lisboa foram pensados. Existe uma versão simplificada com as linhas e as estações sem referências de espaço, o que funciona relativamente bem pois o utilizador consegue criar uma ponte entre o seu mapa conceptual e os conceitos que o mapa pretende ilustrar.</p>
<p style="text-align: left;"><img class="size-medium wp-image-316  aligncenter" title="IMAG0086" src="http://www.nunoprospero.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2009/10/IMAG0086-300x200.jpg" alt="IMAG0086" width="300" height="200" /><br />
Da mesma forma, existe a versão sobreposta no mapa da cidade, em que se percebe que as linhas não são propriamente rectas, nem as estações distam o mesmo entre elas.<br />
O que há de comum nos dois mapas é a presença desta legenda, que foi actualizada em Setembro 2009, quando foi feita a ligação da linha vermelha, da Alameda a S. Sebastião:</p>
<p style="text-align: left;"><img class="size-medium wp-image-315 aligncenter" title="IMAG0085" src="http://www.nunoprospero.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2009/10/IMAG0085-200x300.jpg" alt="legenda mapa metro" width="200" height="300" /><br />
O que quer dizer &#8220;Mobilidade Reduzida&#8221;? Difícil? Impossível? Ou simples/facilitada? A iconografia está bem escolhida, mas a ideia a reter é o oposto do que está escrito. Basta ver que a versão em inglês faz mais sentido: &#8220;Step Free&#8221;.</p>
