Old Main Page (César Editoras)

Foundation And Beginning Years
In the year of 2010 Duarte founded César Editoras, with the purpose of distributing revolutionary material alongside some other co-workers and friends. The company was establishing a new era in the way art was spreaded. In the same year, following its foundation, César Editoras announced its first work, in book form: P, A R.

The company lacked personnel to acomplish its goals and a month after being founded, André Lazarra was hired, to provide ortographic accuracy and other services. César Editoras agreed on a basic salary for the next 10 years,  not expecting the company to be unsuccessful as it is today. Over the years, it was estimated that André Lazarra would earn about 50 to 70 % of all of the company's earnings. It was never thought within the firm to fire the Linguistic Consultant, because his services were of the utmost importance for any project the company had, and because he was the cheapest César Editoras could have ever wished for. Also, the compensation fee to fire André so soon would be bigger than any money ever obtained by the company. And so began the first financial crisis.

Before the official release of P, A R in the Fall of 2010, the company found its first Head Quarters (HQ), in a cheap, yet central location: Beco Do Julião, in Lisbon. At first it was never quite clear whether the staff would stay inside the abandoned building or outside. Now it is well known that the HQ is inside. The building offered everything the company could want in the beginning years. A room, doors, brick sealed windows and a good localization. Beco Do Julião was shortly replaced in 2014 by Boqueirão Do Duro due to a Financial Crisis, but was re-inhabited in the same year.

First Book
P,A R was then released. Not being well distributed, a classic and timeless feature in every single César Editoras' publication, the book was set for an initial printing of 5 copies, being more publicated according to further demand. There were no more copies printed. With this work, the company was trying to create a faithful public and brand recognition. With an intriguing title and a modest fee of 0,16 euros, all copies were sold in a matter of days, but after being read, there were not placed any more orders. The release was considered a success. As of 2014, besides the script kept by the company, there are known to be 1 or 2 existing copies of the book. The remaining ones were presumably lost or destroyed. The current value of a single copy is 25 euros, depending on the condition

Second Book
After the doubtly successful release of P, A R, César Editoras urged to announce a new release to keep the company present in everyone's minds. A strategic release.

Without having money enough to provide said service, due to the lack of profit or even gain obtained from the previous book, in late November the company announced its second book: Breve História De Um Violador, a book exploring the life of a 30 year old male immigrant who returned to his home-country (Portugal) in order to live the rest of his days in the pleasantest way possible, using the large sum of money won by his parents, through their hard work. This work is highly charachterized by karma related events and a high shock value action. The story line is quite understandable, only the charachters' actions aren't which might make the book quite disturbing for most readers. The book was set to be released in February 2011.

Release Issues
After its completion, the book was put through many dencency tests that evaluated its contents and that would determine whether it should be released or not. Unfortunately, the anxiously awaited Breve História D U V was turned down due to "Excessive use of graphic themes. (And the fact that) The book's central idea is disgusting and murders every single word of the portuguese language. This work makes the reader want the portuguese Inquisition to return. It gives us a huge lack of welness sensation and in long term serious and unwanted effects will eventually show up". This official review made the book illegal for printing and selling in Portugal. But shortly after the decision, André Lazarra discussed the freedom of speech with the judge and although the book is still considered "As inhumane as the Holocaust", one single copie was allowed to be released, at any price, if it met the following requirements: It must be sent/sold to an undisclosed single person and it must never be in public space. The conditions were harsh but the company believed in its work. The failure of these regulations would imply serious fines and the destruction of the book. Ignoring its financial status, César Editoras agreed.

Consolidation And New Direction: The Famous Year of 2012
It wasn't until 2012 that César Editoras "left the books on the shelf". Two new, different projects were in the order of business.

Noronha
Throughout the infamous year of 2011 César Editoras had several meetings regarding its future and its survival. In one of these, the CEO decided he should write a more serious and mature book, that would win back the public's lost respect. Thus Noronha was born.

This new book was not announced at first, when it was devised. Only in October 2011 was the release date and title revealed. And on the 21st of January the launch ceremony was being held.

Being written during the entire year of 2011, many thought was put into it. As a satire, Noronha was never supposed to lose the characteristic funny side César Editoras always had. Nevertheless, the story line dealt with less graphic and grotesc situations, and more with attitudes and behaviours of a recently enriched family trying to live up to its financial status. The book told the story of a disfunctional upper class portuguese family that was caught in a snowball effect after a series of bad decisions and situation-worsenings. The family follows a typical cliché attached to a rich traditional family: The children showed very little academical effort, believing that their parents money would grant them a comfortable life. Although they seem to be educated and well mannered, the reader understands since the beginning that that's not the case.

The cover is admittedly a nonsense joke, being an image of an explained and subtitled cooling system. It doesn't have any different meaning.

Distribution And Receptio
The Launch was held in a small room in Lisbon with about 15 attendants. It took 4 to 5 minutes and in the end all first 3 copies were sold at a 1,50 euro price. After a first week in the César Editoras HQ's shelfs, the book had already sold circa 6 copies. It was a success the company had never experienced. The books were always sold through the staff being delivered in person, although the service required the buyer to move instead of the seller. After enough copies were sold some were given as gifts, in order to promote even more the company.

The reception was good overall, mainly because of the new direction and most critics praised the maturation of the company regarding its work and the way it was delivered. An estimative says the 30-paged book had an 55 overall rating given by all its evaluators. The characters were considered very unique in their own way and "doomed alone, and hilariously more doomed together". A famous armenian wrote that "Noronha's characters seemed like a coliseum in which they must kill each other to survive. I didn't believe in the beginning that any of them was going to survive!". This quote is unverified information.

An interview with a family member was also made, but never released to the general public.

Confidentiality Requirements
As a safety measure, and because the previous release did not work out well, César Editoras asked not contractually its buyers to keep the book to themselves and other known authorized owners. This strategy allowed César Editoras to have a moderate, yet desirable impact in the portuguese literature scene at the time, without having trouble with Justice again.

But, as expected, some breaches were known not long after Noronha's release. These breaches were acknowledged by the company with an uneasy face expression and a Gin And Tonic. Fortunately, most "breachers" were friends of the company's members making the situaton controllable.

Sequel
A sequel to Noronha was thought, and it was set for release in July 2013, but a conflict with side projects and a huge loss of creativity made it impossible. Also, as stated by Duarte in early 2014 "A sequel to Noronha was started with a working title, but soon enough I realized that what I was writing could never match what had been done before and I wasn´t enjoying it. Furthermore, Mesinha De Cabeceira and other projects got in the way. All in all I believe Noronha had closure, even though the reader felt that it could have easiliy continued. One never knows..."

Musical Investment
Right after the end of the promotional tour of Noronha came the Easter brake, a period of rest to the staff of César Editoras.

But soon enough the company would see itself wrapped in a branch that would grant it further and bigger success: Music.

While on a family retreat, and 5 months after having heard of a band that would stay with him for a long time, Duarte picked up a guitar and started learning the art. He learnt the basic chords and conciliating his satirical and nonsensical writing, he decided to compose a song. In less than an hour, around midnight he wrote in his ipod the lyrics to a song that would later that week be in the mouths and heads of many people who listened, for the best and worst possible reasons. H A S É D, the first single of the later released album Mesinha De Cabeceira, was first sung alongside a singing cousin in a room with about 15 people. Some had to leave before the end. The performance was praised but the song was considered too long and repetitive. The necessary trims concluded the final version, present on the album. A second song, Carlos E Maria Do Mar was finished 2 days after the first single, on the 8th of April 2012. This song was not performed live so soon as H A S É D, because Duarte did not want to give high hopes to the general public, during an experimental phase of César Editoras' career.

Thus began the first of two new directions César Editoras would take.

Por Portugal A Fora
In June, after the end of the school year César Editoras' staff took a break from all the planning and failed brainstorming done in the previous 3 months.

Nevertheless, and also during a work related pause, a new idea was placed on the table. Based on a well known portuguese entertainment program, César Editoras started writing a One-Episode Season of Por Portugal A Fora, a program in which the presenters would visit a singletown and make jokes around it, mixing culture with sordid statements. The 30 minute episode was recorded with two collaborators whose identity shall not be revealed, due to contract obligations. These two people were essential to the whole project, giving ideas, acting and producing the final film.

After being recorded in a weekend's time, the footage was brought to Lisbon to be organized and arranjed in César Editoras' studios in Beco Do Julião. It took about a month to finish the movie and to promote it as well. On September 2012 it was being aired in the city where it was recorded.

Secrecy Regarding The Footage
Because the company was afraid it was stealing the idea from a well known Network, the show was aired only once, being made available for download in 2014 only to certain regions of Portugal. The download is no longer available. The secrecy was kept through a low profile marketing and no advertising whatsoever. The main laughing target of the show's jokes were the people who watched it. It was never known what cities were used to create the program and there were no reports of the César Editoras' recording sessions.

Income And Reception
Although the audience was very little and mainly friends with César Editoras, the income generated was considered good by the company, even though it was never publicly announced.

Very little money was put into producing the movie, but it was considered by one critic in the audience as "a perfect late evening short satire to make me live better with myself. Most jokes were seriously offensive, and some were private. Overall it was well balanced and I would see it again". The same critic noted that the elder attendance did close their eyes at least once, in order to avoid inevitable shock. A single person in the audience was quite disturbed with the result and said that we "have problems and (you) are mentally challenged".

Mesinha De Cabeceira And First International Success
It was right after the first single (H A S É D, 2012/04/06) was released that Duarte started writing material to his, at the time, unnamed album, when he arrived in Lisbon.

Some lyrics were written faster than others, as A Sinfonia D P V and 16-12, and others were perfected and late arrivals, like Conteúdo Por Assimilar or Eu Não Quero Comer A Sopa. Urinol, one of the album's most famous songs and also a true fan's favourite was composed when the author was abroad. Very few songs were written under these circumstances. Urinol is still considered by Duarte as "an extremely unsettling moment of inspiration".

Recording Process
All of the 15 songs present in the album were recorded in a old USB Mic which gave the first edition of the music a very raw, yet unclear sound, which made the listeners slighltly disappointed given the expectations at first. To compensate for the lack of sound quality of the album, César Editoras released in January 2014 a new Re-Recorded version of the first 13 songs of the album with the last untouched two as "Mesinha De Cabeceira Regravado". This "new" album contains newly arranged versions and clearer sound, as well as some songs recorded in one take only, making them sound as if they were played during a rehearsal.

Every single song was recorded with an Esteve Classical Guitar in two different rented studios.

The recordings took about 7 months to finish, due to the new songs entering the album and also new ideas for the pre-existing ones that changed these over time. Many songs were interrupted by César Editoras' personnel, creating funny moments and also a huge lack of patience by the artist to keep on recording (see: Ode À Promiscuidade (Versão 2)). Duarte recorded about half of the initial version accompanied by another member of César Editoras, who laughed so many times he was kicked out of the project and was not awarded any payment for his previous work on the recorded songs. Out of respect his or her name was not disclosed.

Songs' Themes And Reception
The first César Editoras produced album approached a wide range of sordid and ridiculous themes. Many songs were written about nonsensical situations in a satirical way, filled with irony and many setbacks as these progress. Most tracks make references to shock value topics like human genitalia and waste. The lack of emotional bonds (Ode À Promiscuidade/Por Outra Mulher/IMC/Pequeno Enfarte Do Miocárdio, or the excess of these (Ipod (Versão 2)) are extremely present. The human relationship is always seen as something complex, nasty and joke worthy in this album. Many critics to female behaviour were the central theme to some of the most iconic songs of the album: Carlos E Maria-Do-Mar and Ode À Promiscuidade. On the other hand, earlier songs, written when the author only knew one or two basic chords, such as Ámen or 16-12 are very simple and straighforward lacking a clear joke, being therefore, the song the joke itself. These are very short and repetitive songs that usually are skipped when listening to the album. But after a big wave of human degradation, the album ends with a childish, yet mildly heavy tone. Eu Não Quero Comer A Sopa speaks of a spoiled child who would do anything to be able not to eat his soup. The catchy chorus resembles a street protest chant, reminding some listeners of a kid hitting the table with fork and knive protesting against the food he's served. Conteúdo Para Assimilar tells us the story of a child that realizes, for the right and wrong reasons, that having skipped school was a bad idea. In the end, he promises himself to activate more alarms in the morning in order to wake up with more ease. After an irrelevant cover comes O Trajecto, considered by many as the best quality song in the album. The absence of significant lyrics might be the reason. The song follows a basic guitar fingerpicking and a strumming one for 1:19 minutes, ending with the iconic sentence that gives the song its name.

Mesinha De Cabeceira's reception was considered reasonable. The album was considered by various Media Instituitions as "Very original but showing lots of room for improvement". The edgy lyrics caused a mix reception among the buyers. As expected, the record did not do well among women. Some songs were considered "unnecessary fillers, as 16-12, Conteúdo Para Assimilar and A Mamã Fez Um Bolo" but the general reviews regarded the album as "something that will take many years to have closure and from which we would wish the distance would be bigger. All in all, just like Chernobyl".

The album was as well a very important release to the foreign audience of César Editoras. It sold an unknown amount of copies in Niger, a country that was always very fond of the company's work. Citing André Lazarra: "I don´t know how many copies were sold, or if they were shipped. I only care whether we were recognized outside our little cage we call Portugal. If this acknowledgement requires getting infected with Malaria, I must warn you that given all that I've been infected with, I must now be immune to every challenge Africa brings."

Tudo O Que Não Entra Há De Sair: A Inverosímil Colectânea De Lados B
Translating "Everything Not Coming In Will Come Out: The Incredible Collection Of B Sides", was a 7-copies-limited album released in early September 2013 containing all B Sides that did not make the album and also alternative versions of Mesinha De Cabeceira's Ode À Promiscuidade, Ámen, IMC and a cover featuring Shaýro of Editors' Munich. A live cover version of "Oração De São Pedro" is also on the album (Track 7), due to the fact that Duarte knew the song but not the lyrics when it was played. After having started reading the lines he had to interrupt the song and questioned its misleading and ambiguous lyrics which leaded to a mix reaction of the crowd. Whether it was on purpous or not was never revealed, but in an interview a few months after the incident, Duarte said that "the song still gives me goosebumps and I can never detach myself from the obvious pedophile second meaning present in the song. Go read the lines!". There are two Instrumental songs and, counting with Oração De São Pedro, there are three live ones, that were never studio recorded: Sons Da Cidade and a fan favourite The Kugelschreiber (meaning The Pen, also refered to as A Caneta. This song was written while Duarte was abroad. It was only played live twice as of 2016).

The collection was not charged, and was only awarded to early buyers of the main album. Some other buyers asked César Editoras to resume the production, but it was useless. In 2014 César Editoras offered some clients the option to buy this album but the interest had vanished.

One original copy is known to exist by the company.

Por Portugal A Fora 2 ; End of 2013
In middle 2013, circa 1 month after the release of Mesinha De Cabeceira, the second episode and "the last of the triolgy" of Por Portugal A Fora was announced. Being eagerly awaited by the elite crowd who watched it, the episode was shown once on the first week of September at midnight.

Although it was considered funnier, clearer and better structured, the audience was strategically less and César Editoras did not try to profit with the release. The show was regarded by André Lazarra as a "mere 'thankyou' to our dearest fans and a way to express our gratitude through an unique and unmatched experience". The show was hosted in the exact same venue the first episode was and aproached the same topics and themes.

Early Writing And Planning
Immediately after the end of September of 2012, the second episode of Por Portugal A Fora begun being written. Many jokes and important aspects were written during almost a year (Until June 2013) making the episode well fundamented and not leaving anything out.

On an extremely fragile piece of paper many jokes were written. This page, known for being quite simple looking, yet very important was soon enough employed in the alignment of the ideas and sketches.

Many jokes and bits were also written in loco.

Parting Ways
Against expectation, in June, it was revealed by César Editoras that a crucial member resigned from shooting the second episode days before the shooting itself. Without heartfeelings, the two main members decided at first to cancel the show, having then decided to do it anyway. A correct decision.

The former member was nevertheless mentioned in the credits as one and was also credited for his previous worked, since this second episode would be the last one of the trilogy.

Shooting
The shooting of this episode occured during one weekend, having been completed in under 10 hours. The good planing and work rate, as well as the will to get the show out helped the cast to do one of the most memorable works of their lives.

Just as in the first episode, an iPod Touch was used to record everything. This time it was held horizontally instead of vertically, providing a better view to the viewer, who now did not see two black stripes in the television, alongside the video itself.

Production
The final touches were taken place in Lisbon, in Beco Do Julião, where, for one week, many processes were held. This consisted in the montage of course, the alignment, the captions and also the musical side of the episode. Against expectation once again the show lasted 28 minutes, roughly the same duration as the debut one. However, due to its quality (compared to the previous) the viewership thought it was slighlty shorter. A well timed compliment.

There were no legal consequences deriving from the non-authorized shooting and the music's copyright infringement.

Reception
As expected, the audience's reception was not negative, but unexpectedly, it was quite positive. The 28 minute episode felt shorter and was aclaimed, also due to the fact that it was made only by two of the three initial members.

Although it faced some rough opinions, mainly coming from the subjects of jokes, the approval rate was nearly 70%. Lazarra said afterwards that "the fact the episode aired so late at night (Midnight) might have had an influence on the people's patience towards the show".

Some of the new segments gave Por Portugal A Fora 2 a new lump of fresh air, showing therefore a big difference in format relatively to the former episode. As Duarte explained "this episode does not centre itself so much in the town, but in the people. That had a nice impact on the audience. They felt a part of the story, even though we were constantly mocking them".

Also, the final segment, in which old and funny photographs of the audience involved were shown accompanied with a string driven tune, ended the trilogy perfectly, as if, after so many jokes, peace was finally made in the form of an homage to the subjects.

Beginning of 2014
The beginning of the 4th year of age of César Editoras was met by great expectation, arising from the fact that the public believed its members were on the crest of a wave of ideas and inspiration. Indeed they were, albeit these ideas and isnpiration did not pay off.

New Recording Gear
In order to attain the wanted level of quality, César Editoras invested, in late 2013, 50 (fifty) euros in a newmicrophone, that would provide the songs less background noise and a better, clearer sound. This microphone was used in the recording of the whole Amor De Mãe and also in the recording of Mesinha De Cabeceira Regravado, which is a high quality new recording of Duarte's first album, released in early January of 2014.

Mesinha De Cabeceira Regravado
It didn't take long for the new gear to be put to use. In about a week and a half, the last of December plus the first days of January, Duarte re-recorded the 13 first songs of Mesinha De Cabeceira, as well as new material.

These recording not only had better quality, but also new elements, such as lead guitars, bass, backing vocals and also better timing. The only clear down side was the ocasional sound discrepancy in the song's tiers.

Many songs were merely betterly recorded: Tracks 1,2,4,5,9,10,13. The others were slightly changed, the biggest difference being shown in Pequeno Enfarte Do Miocárdio, track 11. Songs 14 and 15, "A Mamã Fez Um Bolo (Cover)" and "O Trajecto" respectively were not changed because on the first Duarte "did not have any intention of hearing that song again" and the latter he thought that "the background noise ...(remembered him)... of rain".

The album was not really made available, but one copy was given away to a relative.

Trivia: The album was the first work to be exclusively conducted by one singular member of César Editoras.

Amor De Mãe's Early Stages
The second album of Duarte was due to be released in the Spring. According to the author it was going to be "fuller and more professional, as well as less direct and childish". Its work began right after the release of Mesinha De Cabeceira, and at that time, Duarte already had some songs he would feature on his future work. These songs did not make the first album due to incompletion. The album's name was revealed on the 9th of May of 2014.

Recorded December the 23rd of 2013, Aborta A Criança was the first single to be released to promote Amor De Mãe, made public on the 11th of March. First composed to be a filler on the early setlist of Amor De Mãe, the song soon became one of Duarte's favourites, enough to be awarded the first single's position. The reception was very positive, previewing a very successful second album. Called "catchy and energetic" by fans and being called "quick and imediate enough for us to forget its meaning" by critics, Aborta A Criança was the biggest highlight of Amor De Mãe.

The Official Website
On the 23rd of April 2014 César Editoras launched its first fan-service platform on the internet, its official website. This new step brought César Editoras' work closer to its clients and fans. Several updates to the site were made throughout its existence to provide the reader the best experience possible. The website's goal is to let the average person keep up with the many adventures and projects César Editoras is usually envolved in, many of these leading the company to great losses of money and legal consequences. The main writers areAndré Lazarra and Duarte.O Gomes, during his time at the company was charged with minor updates and legal or schedule issues. The design is mainly done by Duarte and the final touches are the work of André Lazarra. The columns were organized by o Gomes.

Instagram Account
Albeit never being a renown artist, but a pragmatist, André Lazarra suggested it was a good idea to embellish the website's updates with photographs. Because no one but o Gomes had the time to find the most beautiful photographs to fullfill this new idea, all of the latter was left to him. Being self considered as a modern human being, the intern lawyer came up with the idea of starting an Instagram Account, which, according to him was "a great way to broaden César Editoras' already wide range of action". He added that "Instagram is an ever growing place where people go to find the weirdest things like love and harassment compensations. I believe our schemes match everything these people are doing". Nevertheless a huge setback was bound to happen. After its first week in business, the account already had around 10 followers, mainly people known by the company. However the profile was open to anyone with Internet connection and a first look from Lazarra was enough to make the account private. It was stated by the Linguistic Consultant that César Editoras' "activities are not to be shown to the whole wide world. Not because these are revolutionary, but because most of them are not fully legal. Also the open status makes it look free. We do nothing on those terms and the lack of availability to the public will most certainly cause its access to be desired more". As of 2015 the account had 14 followers. The account was opened on the 22nd of May. As of September 2015 the account had 19 followers, the 20th being in deep negotiations.

Facebook Account
It took some time for César Editoras to understand it would be free to create accounts on many social networksand on e-mail sending platforms. In the web the website was more than enough broadening for César Editoras. Although being severely denied, rumours stated that César Editoras had been paying an online company to own its own blogger page, the official website.

So this way, on June the 13th César Editoras proudly announced its entering on the "most prolific social network in the world". The first ever message, or the introduction also said that César Editoras' goal would be of "broadening our and your (the client's) horizons, in order to promote a better client-company relationship and information". These sentences were written by André Lazarra. On June the 15th, that is, two days later the comapny announced the ending of the recently created page, claiming it was "not ready for an adventure of this dimension" and adding that the dissolution was not budget related. The webpage, according to the message, could not be immediately ended, and for that reason a one week period would have to be awaited in order for the page to be entirely decomissioned. One month later a new message, written by o Gomes, appeared on the long forgotten César Editoras' Facebook account stating that the page could not be dissoluted for César Editoras' "presence on this social network is of too much importance to us (Facebook) to allow such an action". The message was clear when it came to blaming someone for forgetting to erase the page, albeit this time it was not an outsider but an insider, André Lazarra. The last topic regarded in the text was Amor De Mãe, which o Gomes stressed "was extremely delayed". Since that day, said page has been relegated to a background information platform, not having any kind of exclusivity compared to the other social networks César Editoras is in, being only broader and more accessible. The main manager is Duarte, after him being André Lazarra. O Gomes, before his passing away, was also active in this front. The profile photo is César Editoras's logo, visible on this Wikia and the background image is one of the many André Lazarra's mystery pictures.

On the 15th of March 2016 César Editoras was criticized for changing its cover photo to "Hitler smiling". In its defense the comany stated that its meaning was never literal and that "the biggest oppression could illustrate one of the biggest freedoms" (that of speech). The picture was later changed.

Wikia
During the first weeks of December André Lazarra tested the possibility of introducing César Editoras to a Wikipedia platform. The long, extremely burocratic and rigorous process lead the linguistic consultant to settle with another platform: Wikia. This one never asked questions as to César Editoras was indeed a licensed company or if its doubtful legality could be supported by it.

December the 7th marked the official announcement of the project, that still stands today. André Lazarra remains the sole creator and contributor, due mainly to his unbiased views and scary good writing skills.

The Hiring Of O Gomes
O Gomes' hiring followed a law suit César Editoras faced in June 2013, when it organized an illegal concert inside NOS Primavera Sound, a portuguese Summer Festival from which they were immediately expelled. The lawyer was needed and, being an intern, he received no wage.

O Gomes was also handy when it came to organizing Summer Festival's gigs. For more information regarding the intern lawyer, please follow the link in the title.

Singles
The second single taken from Amor De Mãe was presented digitally to the public on May 9th of 2014, roughly six months before the album's release. This single was received with the same amount of good will the first was. Its simpler structure and complexity made "Hacka-Me O Coração" (Translated: Hack My Heart) an instant classic. The song featured a fast paced rhythm guitar accompanied by two lead ones whose presence was new to many fans. The original version, that is, the single version is reverb heavy and its equalization is questionable, being sometimes difficult to hear clearly some lead guitar bits. This situation forced Duarte to record a new version with better sound and the same structure, released only on the official album. The latter version was criticised for lacking Hacka-Me O Coração's original power.

The third single was not supposed to be released at first, for Amor De Mãe originally was to be released during the summer. On the 7th of August it was announced that the album´s release date would be postponed again, this time to mid Autumn. The recordings would be held once again in early September (7th or 8th). Due to this new delay, César Editoras released, as compensation, a new single, "Jorge Ritto", that was not very well received, when compared to the previous releases. The wait for the new album was perhaps the main reason. Nevertheless the single brought a new never seen before approach inside César Editoras. Being released digitally only, the company realised it could include more than one song to spike the fan's interest. Two new songs were added, including Jorge Ritto (2013 Version), an early version of the song whose sound quality was still quite primitive.

Festivals
Amor De Mãe´s Marketing Campain did not only materialize through Summer Festival gigs, but also through a Fall Tour. The Summer Festival's Season (unofficially called "Mother's Love Tour"), as the name indicates was entirely constituted by Festivals, while the Fall Tour or "Outubrno: O Tour De Promoção Final De Amor De Mãe" was focused on cities and venues.

Summer Festivals (Mother´s Love Tour)
From 5th of June until the 30th of August 14 concerts were delivered: 4 in June, 4 in July and 6 in August. Between 11th of the last Tour's month and the 30th the Tour was interrupted to give way to a trip César Editoras did to Asia, called "Viagem Às Ásias" (Translation: Asian Trip).

The first gig happened in Porto, in a Festival called NOS Primavera Sound. For the concert was ilegally done, César Editoras' staff were expelled from the location and sued, thus o Gomes' hiring. In FMM Sines Duarte played from 03:00 AM until roughly 04:15 AM without any kind of attendance except the security forces, who, in order to fullfill their job's obligations were the only people in front of the stage. After realizing there were no security measures to be applied, the two men turned around and watched the concert until the end. 18 songs were played. In Mêda 2014+ only two songs were played, due to the fact that Duarte made non recommended puns during his first songs, all of these related to the town's name, that resembles a swear word in portuguese. The puns were repeated many times with no positive response whatsoever from the crowd who was waiting for the next act. Soon enough the stage was on fire and the concert was cut short. Although only two songs were played, this was one of the highest receiving attention moments of the Summer Festivals César Editoras was in. Due to the hurry on the moment of leaving, César Editoras had to catch a ride to Montemor-O-Novo on the side of the road. On Hapi Holi, another festival Duarte played in, o Gomes was sucked into the crowd, after invading the stage, robbing the microphone and criticizing the acid-driven crowd, whose responses were to positive to his liking. After his comments were met with the same approach, he jumped onto the crowd punching everyone he could, being eventually sucked and never seen again for some days. The concert was played in its entirety, all 12 songs.

Outubrno: O Tour De Promoção Final De Amor De Mãe
Throughout October Duarte played 15 concerts throughout Portugal, playing in the Northern and the Southern regions, as well as the centre.

The biggest improvement regarding this tour was the proximity of the fan to the artist, for the concerts only included Duarte and no one else. The biggest new feature was the band that followed Duarte on the road. The musician hired three other ones and formed a band with whom he played Amor De Mãe's songs' Full Band versions and also newly arranged Mesinha De Cabeceira ones. The setlist was 17 songs long and remained unchanged for the whole tour. The song that gives the name to the album, "Amor De Mãe", was first played in the first October tour date, in Coimbra.

THE TRIP
To be financially able to engage on a trip of this dimension, César Editoras stated it had "compromised their next 10 years", mortgaging o Beco do Julião and therefore moving to Boqueirão do Duro. The company also claimed it had received "external funds". Whether these were legally obtained or not was never discussed. André Lazarra added that a big part of César Editoras lay with Amor De Mãe's release success.

Along with the CEO, went André Lazarra and a reported young biologist. The said biologist was allegedly on a verbal contract. O Gomes was only announced to be part of the voyage when the first update was delivered, reinforcing his role of a very discredited member of the company.

Purpose
The trip meant new horizons would open to the company, and the latter chose Asia as its target. Considered as an ever growing market, the countries visited offered many business opportunities and cheap and sometimes work-violating conditions César Editoras embraced dearly.

The other goal this Asian Trip beared was the one of a transe stage, from which César Editoras' members would likely obtain abilities to guide their company into more successful land.

Updates
During the member´s stay in Asian territory, two updates were conducted, on the 16th and the 27th of August of 2014, a few days after leaving for the first one and afew days after returning for the second.

The first update confirmed the member's safety after a long travel and this one seemed to have been taken in a relaxed fashion, for o Gomes apparently harassed many plane stewards along the way. The company was warned of the shock the Asian culture could have on it, but, after all, this "shock" only corroborated an idea César Editoras had had for many years: "Asia is Asia and André Lazarra enjoys minors". This illegal pleasure coming from the company's linguistic consultant was quite common in the visited region and it is believed to have had expanded. Although the company's purpose was not to commit illegal tradings of minors, it did some volunteering and helped some local and inexperienced fishermen. The message also stressed the big differences regarding the huge emerging cities and the beautiful and untouched forests and landscapes. As claimed by César Editoras "Gangrene looks like a hobby here and the sale of outdated fruit is something alike the old senegalese strategy of puting the product one hand away from your face. The fact that all traders would insist in talking in their own language with tourists surprisingly worked with André Lazarra"

The second update, also longer, focused mainly in Singapore and finished with the following sentence: "Vietnam was nice". After understanding that everything the company enjoyed (Child Work and Copyright Infringement) would become illegal when entering Singapore, o Gomes managed to brake the inside window of the Boeing carrying the company's members. This incident occured during the only first class plane trip the company had planned. After the braking, the intern lawyer was whipped accordingly. André Lazarra was impressed with the night "being longer than the day", refering to the importance of nightlife in Singapore. Because littering is also punished by law, the company did not let some taiwanese women fall and saved therefore "1000$" in expenses. The stay in Singapore was openly considered to be of mere leisure, perhaps for it was the last location to be visited before returning to Portugal. All in all the city was summarized in questioning fashion: "A clean city, and dirty women. What more could one ask for?".

Aftermath
Having been extremely expensive and arguably the biggest endeavor put to practice by César Editoras, it would be naturally expected that this Trip would have brought a very positive reward. Unfortunately nothing but business experience and cultural connections were taken from the Asian Trip.

This journey was soon forgotten for Amor De Mãe was very delayed and expectation, which was at this point relatively high, had begun to decrease following the countless unsuccessful release dates before the final one, the 7th of November 2014.

Final Recordings
After coming back from the mentioned trip, the crew took a one week vacation before restarting Amor De Mãe's recording sessions, in September the 7th. That day the company released a statement confirming the recordings had begun and claiming they would be ideally over on the 20th day of the same month. Also a Booklet was mentioned as a possible part of the final album.

Likewise Mesinha De Cabeceira, a B-Side album would be released roughly one month after the main one. On September the 14th 11 songs were presented as a possible non-organized line up of said album. "Aborto: Uma Lufada De Ar Fresco", the B-Sides album´s name and setlist was finally revealed on the 29th of September. The album was constituted by 12 songs, 10 of which were completely new, 1 of which was Caso De Banho´s reprise (1:45 min) and another was an acoustic session of the song "Amor De Mãe", lasting over 10 minutes. One song, track 9, is instrumental, being track 8 a collaboration with Shaýro. The B-Sides album´s recordings were held during and after Amor De Mãe´s ones".

Outubrno: The Final Amor De Mãe´s Promotion Tour
Following the conclusion of the recordings in September, Duarte, the CEO, toured Portugal only, to promote his album, whose final date (7th of November) was announced on the 20th of October 2014. The tour included important cities such as Coimbra and Porto as well as some "minor ones" such as Oleiros and Macedo De Cavaleiros. The tour was "not a replication of Mother´s Love Tour", held in the summer. Being apart from festival season, the tour focused on intimacy, having been delivered in small rooms and, for the first time in César Editoras life, with side musicians to give the album's vibe a listen. 15 cities were presented with the tour, not having occured anything as serious as in the Summer Tour.

Art And Ilustration
While Duarte toured throughout October, the other César Editoras' members stayed in Beco Do Julião in order to take care of the imagery of Amor De Mãe. This caused the album´s release to be postponed to 7th November of 2014. The release date was announced on the 20th of October.

The Booklet idea was around for a lot of time and it was put to practice for the first time with Amor De Mãe's release. The 14 paged book contained background-imaged lyrics, as well as some of the technical aspects of the album, such as musicians, production, copyrighting, and thanking.

The cover art is the artist's face in a hazy and blueish environment, while the background image, where the tracklist appears, is in Singapore, presumably taken during the Asian Trip. Besides the album's and artist's name, César Editoras' logo is also present. Every illustration bears meaning. The selected images are mainly either quite dark or shiny, for contrast makes the lyrics readable. Two songs have no considerable lyrics (Tracks 11 and 12) because the first one's lyrics are merely its name and the second is instrumental. Track 12's image space is used for the technical aspects. According to César Editoras, besides two photographs taking place in Singapore, three (two are the same image (yet modified between them)) take place in Sweden, 4 in Portugal, being the remainder's locations unclear, but likely Portugal as well.

First Listen/Digital Release
A first listen was held the night the album came out. Only two authorized long term fans of the company were able to hear Amor De Mãe first hand.

Commemorating and remebering clients of the album's release, two tracks were released digitally: Tu Não És O Meu Filho (later released in the B-Sides album) and Jorge Ritto (Versão Substancialmente Alternativa) (a non officially released substancially alternative version of Amor De Mãe's Jorge Ritto)

In Portugal
The commercial success in Portugal was, against expectation, none. No copy was sold and one was offered. This represented a major blow to César Editoras' confidence given that Mesinha de Cabeceira was such a well received album in the country.

Abroad
Fellow country Niger was once again faithful to its status of a big César Editoras supporter. In terms of overall sales, it reached 2nd place with 16 total copies sold.

Uzbekistan was placed 1st with around 250 copies sold, due to André Lazarra's part-time job as a news presenter in a russian separatist show.

In third came USA, with 3 sold copies.

André Lazarra explained that USA's sales perhaps resulted in a mistake-buy through e-bay, stating that "there's nothing worst than buying non illustrated items (on the website)". The linguistic consultant also thanked the good people of Niger and Uzbekistan for not understanding Duarte's lyrics.

Reception
Apart from the floppy release in Portugal, the album was considered as an important step in Duarte´s still young career. "An easy to catch sound alongside interesting rhythms makes for a good listening experience". Others said that the author "hasn´t got a clear genre. It feels he is trying to conciliate his old sound with a rockier one, creating some akward moments". Regarding the divise "Carrinha De Gelados" a reviewer from Niger stated that "the song recalls Mesinha De Cabeceira but the first of its three parts looks a mess for it sounds plain wrong". The new sound was divisive, yet the production value was highly praised: "The sound quality manages to surprise us. A good effort for these songs are not imaginable with the old noisy background sound Mesinha De Cabeceira used us to".

Amor De Mãe charted in 3 countries: 1# in Niger and Uzbekistan. 9336# in the USA. It did not chart in Portugal, against expectation.

Beginning
After the Amor De Mãe´s flop César Editoras did not have anything to turn to, in order to balance the loss of income.

As if predicting the album´s lack of success, André Lazarra, the Linguistic Consultant revealed a project of his own, on which he had been working silently for some time. His stage name, Emerge-Me! was then known. No hesitation was put in place. César Editoras soon, on the 18th of November of 2014, that is 11 days after Amor De Mãe´s release, announced André Lazarra´s project´s first single: "Esventraras-Me".

Means And Recording
To release and widely distribute the single and future album, César Editoras backed André Lazarra´s creation of a Bancamp account. Thus begun what Duarte still considers to this day as "Plan B".

The recordings took 3 months to finish, mainly because when the intention of releasing another record was announced along with Emerge-Me´s first single, André Lazarra had roughly 5 songs ready. An EP was not on the cards.

Release And Reviews
On the 25th of February of 2015 Emerge-Me´s first album, "Emerge-Me!" was released digitally on Bandcamp. The date was fairly polemic, given that o Gomes had commited suicide the day before. The 9 Track album was made available for download for 10 euros, being nevertheless, each song available for 1 euro only. The album runs for half an hour, being filled with some very short songs (i.e. "Suspiro Maligno", "Carrega-Me") and some very long tracks (i.e. 13 Minutos de Misericórdia e Compaixão). The album is fully instrumental but "every song has a theme and thus a mood". These themes vary from the most daily situations such as a postcard sending to the most sentimental such as deceit caused by love. The genre can also be difficult to take, for it´s alternativeness makes songs seem non-shaped and badly constructed. Also, many songs were either improvised or didn´t "deserve a second take". According to Lazarra, this attitude makes the tracks sound "rawer and more human. Fails also transmit an idea of the persona´s suffering whose human condition allows him to feel the worst emotions available on earth".

Emerge-Me! received an average review rating of 2 stars in 5. It was described as "nothing new nor good nor impressive. It must have been reocorded in a day´s time." Other reviewers were not so harsh, saying that "André Lazarra is lucky for now he can only improve". The best review the album had was centered in the songs´ theme-mood relation: "The songs do feel what their titles suggest. Track one is confusion-filled, while "Recebi Informações No Balcão 2" does really take time to end and patience to withstand it".

Concerts
André Lazarra refused to perform live, for he "was not able to perform unless the subjects of his songs were punishing or inflicting him". In a statement released through the official website, Lazarra claimed he could not play any song, such as "Carrega-Me" if he was not being indeed carried. He could not play "A Filha Do Pastor" if the sight of the shepherd´s daughter was not bestowed upon him. This attitude makes the songs present in the album a bit more unique, for these represent the exact way the author wants them to be, and therefore his emotions. One fan wrote on his own social network account that this option taken by Lazarra was only a record-selling technique. Apparently it was not, for only very few records were sold.

2015: Beginning
2015 was bound to be a quiet year for César Editoras. The company had failed its primary target of profiting through Amor De Mãe and had spent a considerable quantity of money in the Asian Trip, although it sawn a small influx of cash, the result of the Summer Festivals and other concerts.

The release of André Lazarra´s self titled album Emerge-Me! marked the company´s biggest action in the first half of the year.

O Gomes Was Sexually Assaulted
The first happening of the year was a first indication of what would happen a couple of months later. O Gomes, the intern lawyer was severely and sexually assaulted inside Beco do Julião. At first a blood stain caused uproar amongst the members who claimed they did not know what it was. After finding the stained wall André Lazarra was instructed by the authorities to install a surveilance camera the same day. The measure caught o Gomes trying to clean the said stain at night. Facing this disturbing turn of events, Lazarra went to the police station afterwards, having helped in arresting o Gomes`. The intern lawyer did not utter a confession and, being the sole suspect of a crime, was put behind bars for the night. Not enduring the penalty nor the pain of his untreated anus, o Gomes confessed he was molested by a hobo who had already harassed him with a rotten sausage. The intern lawyer had to show the guards his extremely disfigured anus in order to support his claims. A blood sample was compared to the stain in the wall and these matched. The intern lawyer was released at 23:00 of Tuesday and was offered a proctal surgery to be conducted the next day. After being released, o Gomes was trapped in Parque Eduardo VII by "a 2 and a half meter black man" who destroyed the unfortunate César Editoras` employee. His pain made him call an ambulance who drove him to the hospital. O Gomes claimed he did not feel his anus and it was explained to him that the latter was no more. At half past midnight a prosthesis replaced his damaged and nonexistent body part. Because he underwent the surgery before the legally offered one, he had to pay the hospital bill. César Editora´s take on the happening was a simple acknowledgement, stating that "this situation is one we never thought would not happen".

The Fight Of Ourique
Lasting three stressfull days, The Fight Of Ourique was a battle between the César Editoras` members and several hobos who invaded the company´s HQ. It all began when Viktor Khazyumhov, the cleaning man, shot a romenian intruder with a 12-Gauge shotgun. After the incident, the other company members were left shocked and rapidly exited the HQ through the front door. When the latter was opened, other several hobos were trying to get in, following their companion who was now in many places inside Beco Do Julião. Being understandably upset. these forced their way inside the building and started creating chaos. Viktor Khazyumhov was found drunk and asleep above his gun. The members had to wait until the cleaning man started giving signs of conscience.

The second day of the unsettling battle started at midnight. There were about 6 hobos inside the HQ, not counting with the one who was shot. According to the company´s members, it was difficult to differentiate the eastern-europeans. The portuguese speaking ones allegedly ate the rotten corpse of the deceased one and were called "pussys" by the others. At 3 o`clock in the morning a baby was heard crying. After some whining a big flesh sound was heard and the crying stopped immediately. No conclusions were ever taken. Although having awaken at 7:00 in the morning, the César Editoras employees did not want to disturb the puke covered drunk whoose gun was finally removed from under him only to threaten the invadors. At 17:00 Khazyumhov got up grabbed his 12-Gauge and took matters into his own hands.

O Gomes` Suicide
In middle February o Gomes wrote a side note in one of the Website´s Updates, in which he told the reader he felt miserable working inside César Editoras, and that he did not believe he would "be working the rest of his days in this opressive company". This confession was decorated with another, then one in which he confessed he was an alcoholic. Saying he would spend his "wage in Dimple", a whisky brand tells us he was already drunk at the time of writing, forgetting he had a wage, something his colleagues knew he always wanted, besides being only an intern.

In late February he spoke publicly once again, this time through César Editoras´ Instagram Account. He said "weird times are coming. Should I remain in this Hell I´m in or dive into the empty universe of the Unknown". He added "How to escape, that is, if my escape is viable, dignified or a way out properly? The more hazy I become, the more answers I need and less I get. Will I escape, and if so, on time?" This extremely disturbing confession was ingored by his colleagues and essentially almost everyone he knew. André Lazarra stated "he should´nt have done it through Instagram. We have around 14 followers". O Gomes was entering the last stage of his terrible depression and, quoting him, "even worse life".

His death came, suprisingly enough, as a surprise to everyone at César Editoras. His neglecting was mainly the reason. At this point in his life, where César Editoras was only preparing Emerge-Me!´s debut album and quite free of work, o Gomes was seldomly called to work and was uninterested in it. No one would ask about him or think of him, as recalled by Duarte. "He was not needed at that moment, but as an intern, every minute is important and he could have come to work if he wanted", said Lazarra.

The 24th of February marked o Gomes last day on this earth. After writing his final thoughts with a "brilliant and confusing analogy", as stated by César Editoras´ CEO, called "Hi, It Is o Gomes Again", o Gomes was never seen again and it was never known how he decided to remove his life. It is also not confirmed to this day if he did indeed perfrom suicide. As a last note, o Gomes used an interesting piece of sarcasm, ending his suicide note with "????/??/??-2015/02/24", insinuating that his colleagues did not know absolutely nothing about him, not even his birth date.

And so o Gomes´ short yet very interesting and full time at César Editoras came to an end, as did his "unbearably pointless life".

????/??/25-2015/02/24

Emerge-Me!
André Lazarra's project's self titled album was released on the 24th of February, albeit having been scheduled for December.

9 Songs comprised the album, which lasted roughly less than half an hour. Fully instrumental, the album's genre is, according to Lazarra himself "hard to define, but experimental would be an acceptable term". One or Two-Minute songs were Lazarra's formula, albeit the last song reaching the 13 minute mark, being allegedly ironically named 13 Minutos de Misericórdia e Compaixão ("13 Minutes of Mercy and Compassion").

The first single, Esventraras-Me, was released shortly before the album and, likewise the full release, was poorly received, merely acknowledged.

The album, which was recorded mainly in one take was as well written in a very stressing environment, since its goal was to overcome Amor De Mãe's previous failure. The lack of rearranging of some songs, combined with some last minute decisions made the whole Emerge-Me! experience very raw and in some ways gruesome. A polarized division of the audience was imminent, if any audience whatsoever was bound to exist.

Emerge-Me! was put on sale for a price of 10 euros, never having been bought.

Concerts
André Lazarra was reluctant in giving in to playing live, for he felt he was "robbing" his crowd. Some say he was avoiding the lack of the latter, and prefered not to be humiliated, some say this was the last dig o Gomes had at Lazarra.

In his own words: "How could I perform Odisseia Por Entre As Talhas Do Teu Coração if I no longer believe in love? How will I play Esventraras-me, if I no longer feel betrayed by God, being his inexistance obvious? (...) Could I truly afirm inside Meo Arena that I had received informations on Balcon 2?"

And so on, Lazarra argued that his live performances were never going to match his studio recording. Some say that, given his rush put into making the album, soon enough he forgot how to play the songs he himself created.

Little Things And Fabrício's Hiring
On the 17th of March 2015 a job opening for the intern lawyer position was opened, after the loss of o Gomes on the 24th of the previous month. A sensasionalist announcement beared all requirements. Not only requirements were shown, César Editoras' "What You Must Know" Compilation was put at the apllicant's disposal. Very few applications were received, mainly because the applicants were able to read "the small letters instead of the big and appealing ones" (These small letters refered to the events that had happened witho Gomes in February). And was is widely known, Fabrício Tinga was the hired candidate, whose history will be thoroughly examined up front.

On the 30th of March of 2015 César Editoras reached its 100th message on the official website.

On the 7th of April César Editoras announced that André Lazarra, in no way sponsored by the company had been working for two weeks on a Gastronomical project: The Zomato Account. Its purpose was for César Editoras to become closer to its "Foodies" (a term the company openly detests) readers. On an unregular basis Lazarra posts comments and ratings on restaurants he went to, usually writing large texts on his expereiences. One of the most common reasons for bad reviews is the lack of quality beer or the existance of an overpriced one. A section of the website is dedicated to Lazarra's project, that, as of October 2015 had made the Linguistic Consultant a Level 4 Foodie, with 8 followers.

A (R)evolutionary Idea was discussed between members of the company, but its dubious moral character demanded a public referendum. The idea consisted of taking advantadge of seniors. Speculating, André Lazarra estimated that in the near future the 65% of the elderly would have access to the internet and, by creting a website faking weather reports, making them sensationalist, the targeted people would spend ridiculous amounts of time "glued to the screen". Thus César Editoras would profit on diaper and other senior related ads.

Fabrício's Hiring
Fabrício's arrival was announced on the 20th of April of 2015, one month after the vacancy was declared open. Fabrício, brazillian filled all established requirements, more or less. The company stated that it had not yet understood whether the new employee would behave as well, worse or better than O Gomes, who he was replacing. César Editoras also stated they were indeed going to fire him, which turned out to be true, and promised to inform the reader which legal branch would punish the "brazillian's thoughtless actions".

Fabrício's introduction was followed by some topics that would help the reader to understand and know better the new intern lawyer and brazillian. The birth place, age, habits (good and bad ones), and also his childhood and travel to Portugal comprised this list. Amongst the strangest topics were: Fabrício allegedly has drowned himself at least once in the adriatic sea, in tense situations he always pulls his revolver, has 15 half brethren and arrived in Portugal after successfully having clung to an airplane's landing gear. As with the former employee Fabrício received no salary, or did but it was 0 euros.

Fabrício's official first day was the following one, the 21st of April 2015. Fabrício arrived at the doorstep at 9 o'clock in the morning, but he was unaware of the company's work rituals, specifically the lack of it. He was lucky for Viktor Khazyumhov, janitor, decided to clean Beco do Julião that same day and was able to open the door to the new intern lawyer and brazillian, not having asked any questions nevertheless to Fabrício's amazement. Khazyumhov only pointed to the bathroom door and explained the new employee where he was supposed to go should he need to evacuate. Fabrício, showing the first traces of his character, took Viktor's words as an order.

Fabrício's fist contact with a César Editoras' employee happened when, at half past midday André Lazarraentered in Beco do Julião. Fabrício cordially adressed who he thought was the CEO and asked for guidance. Lazarra pointed toward the office and next to a desk, destined to Fabrício. Indifferent to Fabrício's questions ourr linguistic consultant kept working at his own desk organizing and stacking paperwork until the south american stopped trying to communicate with him. After 30 minutes of hard working paperwork Lazarra stared violently at Fabrício who stared back at him. After 2 minutes the stare ended, Lazarra got up, grabbed his things and left using Beco do Julião's back door. When the CEO finally arrived, at half past three in the afternoon, Fabrício, who had had nothing done, was informed that Lazarra had left paperwork on his desk for Fabrício to deal with them. Fabrício was agressively scorned for the first time at his new job, and, not wanting to lose his job, gave in to César Editoras' harsh requirements having spent the whole night working on what he should have on the previous day. After a rough first day Fabrício learnt the most important lesson any César Editoras intern lawyer has to understand: There are no clear tasks, the only one is to finish every single one that was left undone by other members and do every single one the other members did not want to do. All in all, do whatever the others do not want to, except what is exclusive to Khazyumhov, which includes cleaning colossal bum's diarrheas.

Fabrício's first big mistake happened only eight days after his start. Due to Lazarra's little time spent at the HQ Fabrício decided to use the linguistic consultant's computer instead of his due to his newer software, targetting mainly iTunes. Fabrício filled the library with "portuguese errors comprised" brazillian music, which made such an advanced piece of technology fail to withstand such retrograde garbage thoughts and shut down immediately. The computer had to be fixed and went away for some weeks. Fabrício's "shitty android" was confiscated and used to post messages online thereafter.

May and June
May started with an important event for every single César Editoras member. The crew went to Spain to attend a concert by Micah P. Hinson. César Editoras claimed it felt a connection with the musician, mainly due to the fact that the latter was once bankrupt and homeless, having later become a respectable musician. César Editoras hasn't still seen success through. It is, essencially, a pertinent comparison given the company's youth.

On the 13th of May César Editoras defended itself against alleged suggestions that it had provocated the earthquakes in Nepal. Nevertheless César Editoras showed a strong position against the country in question, stating that "it would be better to eliminate the country once and for all". All these allegations that the company was under heavy criticism haven't still be supported by evidence. It was also announced that Lazarra was at that moment working on his second album and also doing covers of Amor De Mãe's songs to be compiled and released as a bonus album. Tensions arose as Lazarra seemed to be on the verge of becoming César Editoras' number one musician.

The month's activity ended, before the company vacationed, with a poll bearing the goal of setting a new slogan for the company, resorting to public opinion. The message, posted on the 25th of that month received, as of 2016 19 views, a high standard for the website. The poll results would later reveal a similar care shown by the voters for César Editoras.

On the fifth of June César Editoras, through Lazarra, answered a question the company was stunned it was never asked: What is life like inside César Editoras. André Lazarra, not being the CEO (who could be biased), but the first employee to be hired was handed the task. The linguistic consultant based his explanation on the five years he had spent working for the company. Lazarra stated that without him the project would have never happened, but held himself responsible for most of the problems the company had underwent. After a brief introduction, on his position and relevance, André exposed what the question was begging: The whole César Editoras members constitute a core of friends who, treating each other merely on professional terms, produce negative outcomes bearing the lowest of expectations. The employees rarely see each other due to teh lack of work (back then, and now as well). Only Viktor Khazyumhov, janitor, and Fabrício, ex-intern lawyer would treat each other as equals. As was clear given earlier experiences the crew delegated all his endeavours to the latter. All relationships are simple, for they do not have to be complex, and whenever hardships arise, the intern lawyer position will always be open for someone to occupy it and be crushed under an gigantic and illegal work load.

César Editoras was on vacations from the 6th of June until the end of the month, its long summer vacations. The company took a trip to Berlin, with money that was not taxed. The reason was the necessity to build a more cohesive team and improve the mood and motivation for the next semester.

On the 30th of June André Lazarra bought Amor De Mãe's copyrights and intended to create an instrumental version of the album, which would, according to him would "maximize the songs' potential", by removing "its obliterating lyrics" and, in a way, "rewriting them".

July and August
The Company's new slogan was chosen by its readers through a poll conducted on the official website. The winner "César Editoras, for love is also parcially rape" was announced on the eleventh of July. The final slogan was only chosen on a second election, given that it was previously tied with "César Editoras, Pervertion's Skylight" at two votes each. When these met alone on the second poll the last was seriously injured when all five votes were against it. The second round's total quantity of votes was beat the first one by one. Thus, what some call an unfortunate situation was (s)elected.

On the 12th of the 7th month of the 2015th year Joaquim Orduras signed with César Editoras. The 33 year old poet signed for 5 years or two books. Orduras admited he had followed César Editoras for some time. "Few are the companies that work like this, for the work, not the profit. I admire its qualities and we both understand each other. I've visited o Beco once and it is just like it was described to me, the reader. It mirrors the qualities César Editoras demonstrates: Grace and a strong fall. With my first work I hope to honour the deal and concede the company and the reader the most magnificant experiences ever by them experienced".

On the 17th Fabrício, the intern lawyer, was reprehended through the official website only. The observation, written by André Lazarra stated that "someone, working for a company who shows certain attitudes, as repugnant as the ones shown does not deserve to keep his job". It also included a reprimand to idle behaviours, "When the vacancy was opened (...) we never thought that, receiving 0 euros per month, it would be occupied by someeone lazy". It concluded: "During the following hours we'll be analysing his situtuation, that is extended to ours". The same message was, serving as a pressure instrument or not, used as well to remember o Gomes, ex intern lawyer who allegedly commited suicide in February. The text's credits were awarded to the whole company. In it factual words regarding the man's short experience were mainly utilized, but o Gomes was remembered as someone who accepted his fate as an abused intern lawyer at César Editoras, for he chose to work for it. This last bit was regarded as nostalgic, given the huge gap between the new and old employee. Not necessarily in terms of quality, because that was never something the company worried about, but in terms of ability to accept and promote the illegal labour conditions César Editoras ever so valued. We, at the company, do not believe Fabrício read our advice, our observation. Until today we cannot decide whether that was an improvement on his erratic behaviour or simply not. Whether Fabrício found a dillema or not we'll never want to know, for the intern lawyer was let go too soon. It is importnat to remeber that, at the time of his sacking, Fabrício was admonished for following through his schedule, what was badly seen by his superiors, for Fabrício did it even when there was no work, essencially, most of the his time. Because César Editoras expects its employees to have a crook-like attitude, deceiving your bosses is seen as a good quality, whenever it does not affect them strongly or is petty enough for it to be feasible. When these acts are discovered they can improve the employee's image in his superior's eyes.

Fabrício Fired, Lenocínio Baptista Hired
After some time of speculation and uncertainty, the most likely happened: Fabrício was let go. The latter did not change his behaviour towards his work after he had been warned through the official website. Fabrício entered a heavy argument with André Lazarra, linguistic consultant, and he was unable to state and defend his case because his superior wouldn't let him.

The explanation of the sacking is as follows: "During the few months Fabrício has worked for César Editoras he merely followed orders, badly, and removed cookies from the pantry that were not his. However one must praise the fact that Fabrício always met his schedule, independently of having or not work during those lost hours. (...) Fabrício does not fullfill the criteria César Editoras demands: Attaining mediocre results through minimal effort. Fabrício has shown a huge inability to understand the company's philosophy, by always meeting his schedule, strictly following orders (without contestation), yet incompetently, and by never entering in serious conflicts with his work colleagues, revealing a malleable and peaceful-making attitude.

On the day Fabrício was fired Lenocínio was immediately hired, in fact, in the same announcement. Of course Fabrício's sacking was for long foreseen, but Lenocínio's hiring brought once again questions regarding César Editoras' behaviour towards its employees. Some argue that Fabrício would have stayed with the company if it hadn't found Lenocínio Baptista.

Lenocínio is awarded no salary whatsoever.

On his motivation letter, allegedly written hurriedly on a piece of napkin, Lenocínio said his experience had saturated him and was now looking for something that could test him constantly and make him wonder whether his life was indeed worth living, and at César Editoras he saw this wonderful opportunity open itself to him.

About Lenocínio
Lenocínio is on his early forties and considers himself moderate and serene, adopting attitudes of rage and lack of control when the occasion deserves. He likes to take long walks on the Trafaria Beach, where everything is calmer and inhospitable. He stresses never having killed a child on the 25th of December of 1993. He is suspected of being an alcoholic and, like André Lazarra often attends services of dubious moral character. His musical tastes are varied but mainly classical music, which he listens to at the office on untold volume.

Numa Mercearia Em Monção
André Lazarra had been working for some time on his second album, due to be released during the Summer, under the linguistic consultant's stage name "Emerge-Me!". On the 16th of July it was announced that Lazarra's self-titled Emerge-Me´s successor was imminent. On the 22nd of July the album was announced, the release date being the 19th of the following month. 12 songs comprise the album, the 8th bearing the its name. "O Abade" was its first single and was released, just like the whole album, via Bandcamp. Numa Mercearia em Monção was recorded throughout some months and some "intense sprees". The album picks up where the latter was left. Acoustic Guitar is the main mea, yet less distortion and effects are used, except for the last track "O Frio E Rotativo Lar De Idosos", which follows the tradition Lazarra has set for his albums of releasing an experimental tune in his musical works. The album is freely available for downloading, for an imodest cost of 4 euros.

New Projects
César Editoras stated, on the 11th of September, that Por Portugal A Fora, a series stopped in 2013, was to be concluded through a third and final episode, due for September of 2016. Albeit bearing the serie's name, the third episode was not to be included in the same group the other two were in, for the latter comprise the Trilogy, while the new one could be considered as "a new season", even though it will only be formed by a single element. This third episode marks as well the return of the founding member who left the project in 2013 when the second and last episode of the trilogy was being conducted. It was also stated that this episode should be regarded as "scraps", for it will probably be the end of an eternal and timeless series, and all remaining material will have to fit into this one last video.

The Album Of The Year's account was started on the 15th of October of 2015 and is not managed mainly by any member, but every single one participates, writing reviews, and thus signing their publications, to indentify the expressed opinion. César Editoras' participation is more focused on rating albums, and creating a ranking on the best albums of all time (as well as some of the worst). Take into consideration that not all albums have been rated, for usually these ratings are discussed between the members before being posted. As of November 2015 the Best César Editoras' album of all time is considered to be Rain Dogs by Tom Waits.

On the 13th of December 2015 a poll was started in order to determine the "Most Outrageous Portuguese Name of All Time". After a disappointing campaign with no participation, on the 27th of January 2016, the name was chosen by a casting vote by César Editoras, whose initial endorsement, the name "Mauro", successfully won.

A Period Of Interventions
Throughout the remainder of the year César Editoras kept itself busy by intervening in Society through texts instead of direct action.

César Editoras' first crucial intervention occured on the 31st of October, when it seriously criticized Humanity in general but specifically the corrupted youth and its behaviours, believing that, given the way things are, "we're way past the rubicon".

The second Intervention was motivated by the unstable political situation Portugal faced in November, when what some might call a "Coup d'Etat" occurred. The company, not particularly enraged, held its widely known political position of a strong Right Wing controlling party. Therefore it was needed to divide the argument in two parts, "The Problem" and the "Final Solution". The Problem essentially consisted of the Outrageous Lie, which was inflicted to the voters and the Big Will Of Power, that left the accused bereft of dignity. All in all César Editoras predicted that nothing that happened would last long and the wrongful actions would end in political suicides and. An interesting metaphor was used, and is as follows: "The deputy now finds himself inside a car that has jumped and is in direct route to a building, while below a freezing river flows. The deputy has two options. Either he stays in the car and dies immediately or jumps to the freezing river, suffering a lot, yet saving himself". The Final Solution, proposed by César Editoras, would be naturally allowing an authoritarian leader the right to command the country, with an iron fist that would not allow such "baffooneries as these happen".

On the 17th of December the company made its last relevant intervention on a tender subject, rape. The company supported "Fat" Becky Cooper's idea that women who didn't want to be sexually assaulted should become obese and, therefore, undesirable. "At César Editoras we've worked from early on with the topic, having undertook many practical investigations on it. Thus, we will approach the contents we find helpful for the discussion". César Editoras defended that being called "assaultable" is a compliment and even though it could transpire weakness and a low self-esteem,"it is precisely that low self-esteem that impedes the victim to acknowledge the compliment". Continuing the company stated that a rapist should profit from his attack, no matter what punishment he knows he will be facing. Therefore, by attacking the victim and later being severely punished it is infered that the assaulter would not have done it if the victim were not deemed extremely valuable. Still, such a compliment is seen as a very rare situation by César Editoras, given that usually rape is motivated by "sleep, inebriation, fragility, mental incapacity, blind belief in in an all-powerful God, etc." Ending the argument in a personal note the company personally attacked "Fat" Becky Cooper for gaining attention on such a subject. On a side note, given the companies views on the subject, it can be argued, wrongly nevrtheless, that something has changed. Throughout the Intervention César Editoras states that even though it condemns these actions, it acknowleges that in one or another occasion it might have, unwillingly, provoked them or allowed them. In their words, "motivated" them.

Early Months
In January César Editoras planned many things, namely Por Portugal A Fora 3 and an Easter Album, filled with thematic songs.
