This week I taught a LaTeX course for the Student Chapter of Society of Petroleum Engineers at the University of Campinas.
ShareLaTeX
This is the fifth time that I taught a LaTeX course and the first time that I use ShareLaTeX in a course.

Ontem eu fui no shopping para comprar algumas coisas e aproveitei para passar no banco. Nessa agência, todos os terminais de auto atendimento possuem leitor biométrico (digital) e você só pode fazer qualquer transação após realizar seu cadastro biométrico.
