Marge Simpson makes cover of Playboy
Marge Simpson -- the blue beehived matriarch of America's most loved dysfunctional family - is Playboy magazine's November cover, the magazine said on Friday.

Playboy said the cover and a three-page picture spread inside was a celebration of the 20th anniversary of the "The Simpsons" and part of a plan to appeal to a younger generation of readers.

Gaza zoo replaces zebras by painting donkeys
Gaza City zookeepers have found a creative way of drawing crowds to their dilapidated zoo - by painting their donkeys. The Marah Land Zoo's only two zebras died of hunger earlier this year when they were neglected during the Israel-Hamas war. The popular animals were too expensive to replace, so the keepers decided to design a pair of donkeys with black and white patterns instead. Ahmad Barghouti says a professional painter used French-manufactured hair coloring to make the donkeys look like zebras.
GLOSSARY
Zookeeper= zelador do zoo; Drawing crowds= atrair multidões
