O português brasileiro ainda é a mesma língua usada em Portugal? Alguns especialistas argumentam que não. O idioma falado por aqui foi imposto aos indígenas por clérigos e disseminado na boca de uma população majoritariamente formada por marinheiros, artesãos e outros lusitanos pobres e marginalizados. Eles sequer sabiam ler e escrever. Com o passar dos…

Google partial translation: Is Brazilian Portuguese still the same language used in Portugal? Some experts argue not. The language spoken here was imposed on indigenous peoples by clerics and disseminated in the mouths of a population mostly made up of sailors, artisans and other poor and marginalized Portuguese people. They didn’t even know how to read and write.
Blue herons are pure magic! Elegant magic…
blue heron
This beautiful bird can be found at the edge of the pond, often sneaking through the long grass in search of frogs.
The heron stands tall and straight in its posture helped by its long legs. Slow to move unless it has to.
Colours of a purple-ish grey-blue separate the truly majestic-looking creature from other similar typed birds such as osprey and flamingos.
This huge bird has a massive wingspan and simultaneously looks elegant and cumbersome at the same time while trying to take off.
It furiously flaps its wide wings barely clearing the treeline as it flys away in an upwards path that does not allow much leeway for mistakes.
At times it will fly through the tree branches because it can not clear the treetops, yet it still manages to not crash into the leaves.
Always making seemingly hard work look easy, the heron eventually reaches…

Usted me gusta. La descubro en los poemas y en los textos que le dedico, en las letras y en las palabras que le escribo, y también en los pétalos de las flores que recolecto. Usted me encanta. La siento en la lluvia, cuando, loco y ocurrente, recibo incontables gotas que mojan mi cabeza, mi piel y mi ropa. Usted me fascina. Escucho su voz en la lluvia, en la sinfonía del mar y en los susurros del viento. Usted me cautiva. Cada encuentro e instante a su lado, es un deleite, un encanto. Usted me embelesa. Es tierra y cielo, rumor y silencio, ruta y destino. Usted es mi delirio. He aprendido, a su lado, que el amor se vive y se siente, se experimenta y se sueña, se cultiva y se disfruta. Usted late en mí. La percibo en mi alma, en mi vida…

ndia’s drug regulator has approved the world’s first DNA vaccine against Covid-19 for emergency use. The three-dose ZyCoV-D vaccine prevented symptomatic disease in 66% of those vaccinated, according to an interim study quoted by the vaccine maker Cadila Healthcare. The firm plans to make up to 120 million doses of India’s second home-grown vaccine every year. Previous DNA vaccines have worked well in animals but not humans. Cadila Healthcare said it had conducted the largest clinical trial for the vaccine in India so far, involving 28,000 volunteers in more than 50 centers. This is also the first time, the firm claimed, a Covid-19 vaccine had been tested in young people in India — 1,000 people belonging to the 12-18 age group. The jab was found to be “safe and very well tolerated” in this age group.
DNA and RNA are building blocks of life. They are molecules that carry that genetic information which are passed on from parents to children. Like other vaccines, a DNA vaccine, once administered, teaches the body’s immune system to fight the real virus. ZyCoV-D uses plasmids or small rings of DNA, that contain genetic information, to deliver the jab between two layers of the skin. The plasmids carry information to the cells to make the “spike protein,” which the virus uses to latch on and enter human cells.
ZyCov-D is also India’s first needle-free Covid-19 jab. It is administered with a disposable needle-free injector, which uses a narrow stream of the fluid to penetrate the skin and deliver the jab to the proper tissue. Scientists say DNA vaccines are relatively cheap, safe and stable. They can also be stored at higher temperatures — 2 to 8C. Cadila Healthcare claims that their vaccine had shown “good stability” at 25C for at least three months — this would help the vaccine to be transported and stored easily.
