Sosa an autobiography of a pencil
Mercedes Sosa - The Voice of Hope: My life-transforming encounter
infelizmente esse livro não é uma biografia, é um tributo, uma grande declaração de amor da autora para a Mercedes Sosa, mas um do tipo que parece tentar se passar por biografia ao invés de se colocar como é. no caso, a autora menciona ser um tributo, ao mesmo tempo que diz que foram muitas horas de pesquisa e entrevistas, mas durante o livro, além de trazer muitas suposições, ao final descobrimos que partes narradas são pura invenção da autora, que acredita que soube interpretar o modo de pensar da Mercedes simplesmente por ter assistido horas de shows e entrevistas da artista - ela diz em certo momento que para se conhecer alguém, é preciso passar tempo com essa pessoa e foi o que ela fez, como se assistir alguém que já faleceu pela TV caracterizasse "conhecer" a pessoa e a partir disso, se achar no direito de narra junto com os acontecimentos, PENSAMENTOS da Mercedes que ela sentiu que fariam sentido tipo ? gente, achei bizarríssimo. apesar de ter uns esclarecimentos no final, achei super irresponsável, e até desrespeitoso, apesar de que parece que o filho da Mercedes, Fabián, deu o seu aval para a publicação. foi interessante só pq compila sim muitas informações factuais que eu, uma total leiga da vida da Mercedes, não sabia, mas qualquer um que saiba um pouco mais, só vai ser agregado com os delírios da Anette. agora prefiro ir atras de uma biografia de verdade

When I’m out in the field, I still use a pencil and a notebook to keep track of what I see. It’s a little old-fashioned, sure. I jot down species mostly using banding code abbreviations, that generally take the first couple of letters of the words in a species’ name. For single-word species it’s the first four letters. I’ll buy a Moleskine for note-taking at a local shop so I don’t have to bother going to a MALL (Mallard).
In terms of a newsletter topic, this could easily VEER (Veery) into corny territory and maybe there should be BANS (Bank Swallow) on this excuse for a post. But why not go with the FLOW (Flammulated Owl) and see what may COME (Common Merganser) of this idea.
Some of you may know that years ago, I got lost in the Canadian BUSH (Bushtit) while on a canoe trip. My friend and I thought about trying to wander on and on but that was a NOGO (Northern Goshawk). The final paddle of the trip was WAVI (Warbling Vireo), but we made it across the lake.
My first night in Chicago years ago, I went to a Thai restaurant in Uptown and ordered a spicy LARB (Lark Bunting) salad. This was around the time that SOSA (Solitary Sandpiper) was still starring for the Cubs. One of my favorite songs back then was Funkdoobiest’s “Oyé PAPI (Passenger Pigeon).”
Finally, when we had kids there was nothing left to do but sing “This Little PIGR (Pine Grosbeak) Went to Market.” As they got older, both girls got into LEGOs (Lesser Goldfinch); one of their favorite breakfasts remains EGGOs (Egyptian Goose). We’ve generally allowed for a laissez faire, EURO (European Robin) style of parenting, and that means they can do what they want. So far they haven’t shoved us into the OVEN (Ovenbird).
You might think that you CANT (Canyon Towhee) become an expert in birding, but if there is a WILL (Willet) there’s a way. I suggest a good pair of gloves so your hands don’t get cold in the SNOW (Snowy Owl). In pre-pandemic times I’d visit
&#;Why I&#;m Skipping the Pep Rally&#; by Simone and Katie
This Friday, I&#;m asking my mom for a note excusing me from pep rally. Here&#;s why. Pep rallies are loud, obnoxious, and exclusionary. The whole thing centers around the football team, which isn&#;t even good, while our math team competes and does well, and I didn&#;t even know we had a math team until last year. The different clubs and activity groups enter through one door and circle around the gym. When they&#;re done and seated, the football team enters through another set of doors, because they&#;re that special. FAVORITISM! The kings have arrived, and the crowd goes wild.
The pep rally recognizes a lot of clubs, but they aren&#;t recognized equally, and that&#;s the problem. All other sports and clubs are considered second to the football team, a sign of the favoritism toward male sports. Even the performing band falls victim to the chaos, as they can&#;t be heard while the seniors and freshmen engage in a shouting match across the gym. Pep rallies makes me hate my peers instead of love my school.

Did you know that hummus could also be spelt as hommus? I usually hate hummus but I am praisi
