Welcome Janice from Brazil and all new members!

Janice:
I'm from Brazil as well. If you want something translated take a look
at the UCPEL site (look for Antonio Rocha da Costa). Thereis a pdf
file with a basic content that is very useful. Any doubts you may mail
me in private and I'll give you directions, ok?
Best Regards
