Vivaldi translation: Not everything you think can be said. But much of what is said can be reevaluated, and at a later time, improved.

– Think of the weight of your words .

Nem tudo o que você pensa pode ser dito. Mas, muito do que é dito, pode ser reavaliado, e num momento posterior, melhorado.

– Pense no peso de suas palavras .

Biden gets 40 judges confirmed in first year, double Trump’s number | Washington Examiner

President Joe Biden is moving at twice the pace filing vacancies in federal court than his immediate predecessor during his first year in office, but the Democrat has a long way to go in catching up to Donald Trump’s total first-term number.

With the Senate confirming a raft of judicial nominees late Friday into early Saturday, Biden’s 2021 total was brought to 40 federal court nominees confirmed, which is 21 more than the 19 Trump had in 2017.

Connecting With West Africa’s Plant-Based Past – The New York Times

Ms. Osuchukwu runs Plant Food Federation, a website focused on plant-based approaches to Nigerian cuisine, and she is one of many cooks in West Africa and the diaspora navigating the experience of being vegan in a culture that holds certain ideas about food close. She is also part of a growing number of people trying to confront a misconception that it is difficult — and even limiting — to eat a meatless diet using West African ingredients.

On the contrary, Ms. Osuchukwu, who is originally from Calabar, in southern Nigeria, said that there are many ingredients available across the country that can be used to adapt traditional dishes for a plant-based diet, like sliced ugba, a fermented oil bean seed, which steps in for dried and smoked fish in native rice and in abacha, a salad of shredded cassava, red palm oil and fresh herbs.

“People always ask me know how I handle being vegan or plant-based in Nigeria because they believe we don’t have food diversity here,” she said, “and I always look at them like, ‘No, actually, we have more food diversity locally, right here, than in many different parts of the world.’ ”
