En la víspera de la Hispanidad, me he acordado la gran cantautora peruana, Chabuca Granda. P.S. María Dolores Pradera popularizó su canciones en España. P.S. 2 En una fiesta con ella en Barranco (mi barrio de Lima), Paco de Lucía descubrió el cajón peruano, y lo «flamencalizó».

LAs air quality has improved significantly over the last 20 years. But yes the clarity during COVID was amazing and what can be.

This is west LA, the place I was born. That haze you see isn’t fog. It’s the exhaust from the millions of vehicles Angelenos depend on to get around. For all of the decades i’ve spent here, it has been a constant. We live it, we breathe it, we add to it every time we leave our house. During the pandemic, when traffic stopped briefly, we saw what the world could look like. Clean air, clean views, clear skies. It’s my hope that we can one day get back there again and heal Los Angeles. Ubiquitous autonomous electric vehicles are our best shot at doing that. And yet the oil industry, and the unions, the auto dealers, and the politicians have managed to convince most people that EVs are bad and evil and the oil and gas companies are good. I want to see the Tesla and EV communities come together to finish the job. With autonomous electric vehicles a much brighter future is in reach. It’s a chance for my future children to not grow up in a haze of exhaust like I did. A real shot, after a long period of impossibility. There are many people fighting to stop or slow down this future, but if we work together we will outnumber them.

The original camera negative is power, not judgment. Access to the original negatives and modern colour tools does not automatically guarantee a faithful restoration.

Pienso exactamente lo contrario. Como memorial me parece espectacular: el tamaño te hace entender la dimensión de las torres y las cascadas aportan dignidad y serenidad. No me parece dejar la herida abierta si no más bien resignificar y seguir adelante sin tapar ni olvidar.

Can I just say… I despise this. Just two open wounds in downtown Manhattan that we failed to rebuild. We could’ve built a beautiful 9/11 memorial and still built back the twin towers bigger and better than before. Instead we have these gaping holes, a monument to the weakness and incompetence of the people running NYC. Honor the victims and REBUILD.

Si tienes diez minutos para conmemorar el 25º aniversario del 11-S, este vídeo es un chorro de luz en medio de aquella tragedia y de tantas cosas que han ido mal desde entonces.
Every year on or right before 9/11, we show this video to our students. It’s not only powerful story-telling, it’s a reminder to a younger generation about how life altering 9/11 was for those of us who lived it. It’s only 10 min #themanintheredbandana

Lost in translation a 23 ans, et le monde qu'il décrit n'existe plus. C'est un monde que j'ai connu et dont je suis nostalgique. À l'époque, vivre à Tokyo pour un non-Japonais c'était vivre dans un monde hors du monde, coupé de tout. Ce mélange d'altérité radicale et d'anonymat de la foule attaquait jusqu'à la conscience de son propre être. Et croiser une autre âme errante dans Tokyo créait des relations immédiates et intimes. Aujourd'hui il n'y a plus vraiment d'endroits coupés du monde, car l'on est toujours à une visio de son foyer et des gens qui nous sont familiers. Et la grande partie de notre vie qui se déroule désormais en ligne nous suit dans toutes les géographies. La langue elle-même n'est plus la même barrière. Je me souviens encore des cartes tentaculaires du métro tokyoïte où il n'y avait pas un seul caractère latin auquel se raccrocher. Aujourd'hui presque tout est traduit en anglais, et une app permet de traduire ce qui ne l'est pas. En 2003, tu pouvais payer ton taxi avec ton téléphone à Tokyo et cela avait un côté futuriste. 23 ans plus tard, c'est banal. À l'époque, aussi, la vie y coûtait très cher, et cela tenait le tourisme de masse éloigné. Je pouvais passer des semaines à Tokyo sans rencontrer un seul occidental. Aujourd'hui ils sont par paquets de 10 dans le moindre métro. Il y a même un mouvement où de plus en plus en plus d'Américains vont s'installer à Tokyo, pour profiter des prix de l'immobilier plus bas qu'à NY ou SF, d'une ville parfaitement sûre, de milliers de restaurants et bars qui battent n'importe quel lieu américain, bref pour profiter de la meilleure ville du monde, ce que Tokyo reste, malgré tout. Mais je reste étreint par une sensation de paradis perdu pour toujours. Peut-être le dernier du genre.

Los ayuntamientos de España y su guerra sin cuartel contra todo lo bello. Otra muestra de lo que se hace a nivel municipal cobijados en el manto de la ignorancia y la absoluta falta de transparencia. Esto le han hecho al miramar de Tarifa. La broma salió por 200.000€

Nos ha dejado una leyenda. Julio Iglesias se despide de su gran amiga y compañera, Dolly Parton, a través de sus redes sociales. Recordemos que ambos grabaron juntos "When You Tell Me That You Love Me" en 1994 para el álbum Crazy. Rest in Peace, Dolly.

In 1988 Dolly Parton pulled every 7th and 8th grader in Sevier County into a room and told them to pick a buddy. She made them sign a contract.. if BOTH graduate, she hands you both $500. One fails, nobody gets paid. The county dropout rate went from 35% to 6%. She handed out the checks herself. In 1989 she offered $500 to every kid in the county who wanted to go to the local college. When Gatlinburg burned in 2016, she sent 900 families $1,000 a month for six months. You've probably heard that part. Here's the part you haven't: The fund raised more than expected, so she showed up in May and handed every one of those families another $5,000 on top. Then she quietly put $3 million into the recovery group that handles the years after the news trucks leave. She built her county an entire hospital. She played a benefit concert in 2007, Dollywood and the Stampede matched it, and LeConte Medical Center opened in 2010 with a birthing unit and a women's center in it. In 2022 she started covering 100% of tuition, books, and fees for Dollywood employees. Full-time, part-time, AND seasonal. In 1991 she paid for a bald eagle sanctuary because the birds couldn't be released back into the wild, no press release. And when Hurricane Helene came through here in Western North Carolina, she wrote a personal check for $1 million and her companies matched it. She didn't owe North Carolina anything, but she helped us anyway. She started the Imagination Library because her daddy couldn't read or write. Before he passed, he told her it was the most important thing she ever did. Rest in Peace, Dolly 🇺🇸
