In search of a marvellous meat-free treat? I have found the perfect fungus | Adrian Chiles | The Guardian

I thought these delicacies were just a well-kept Croatian secret, but it seems ‘the chicken of the woods’ has been growing nearer to home all the time, writes Adrian Chiles

‘Not even modestly good control’: Fauci says US Covid cases 16 times too high to end pandemic | Anthony Fauci | The Guardian

“The endgame is to suppress the virus,” Fauci said. “Right now, we’re still in pandemic mode, because we have 160,000 new infections a day.” The seven-day average of new cases declined slightly from the previous week, to 140,000 cases, although it’s possible reported case numbers are low given two holidays this week. Rates this high make it impossible to return to some semblance of normal life, Fauci said. “In a country of our size, you can’t be hanging around and having 100,000 infections a day. You’ve got to get well below 10,000 before you start feeling comfortable,” he said.

Context, Thought, and Learning: ShiraDest Offers Project Do Better

It is crucial that we each help our society to become more fully inclusive for all of us today, and to come and work together, for all of us, right?  

I believe that attention to shared histories, as in DC, may provide part of an answer.  I started a note about that, a few years ago, in my book Stayed on Freedom’s Call:

” … When GWU shut down the Urban Law Institute, a hole was left in community legal services which the Cahn’s endeavored to fill.

They created the Antioch School of Law in 1972, each serving as “Co-Dean” of the law school.

This law school took a unique approach to training lawyers. First year law students were assigned to live with the clients for the first six weeks of the new school year while learning to do legal research, getting oriented to the city, and handling administrative…

Amazon To Cover 100% of College Tuition for US Hourly Employees – Slashdot

Amazon said Thursday it will offer to pay 100% of college tuition for its 750,000 U.S. hourly employees. From a report: The e-commerce giant is following the lead of other large U.S. companies who are dangling perks like education benefits or more pay to woo workers in a tight job market. Starting in January 2022, Amazon said it will cover the cost of college tuition, fees and textbooks for hourly employees in its operations network after 90 days of employment. It will also begin covering high school diploma programs, GEDs and English as a second language certifications for employees. Operations workers include employees in Amazon’s sprawling network of warehouses and distribution centers. The benefit will apply to hundreds of education institutions across the country, Amazon said. Amazon previously offered to pay for 95% of tuition, fees and textbooks for hourly associates through its career choice program. Rival retailers, including Walmart and Target, have also beefed up their education benefits in recent months. Target in August rolled out a program that covers the cost of associate and undergraduate degrees at select schools. Walmart in July said it would pay 100% of college

El encanto y la magia de las palabras

A usted

La magia de las letras consiste, quizá, en impregnarlas con un tanto de usted y de mí, de tal manera que, en las páginas del cuaderno de notas o del libro, otros descubran y sientan, al leerlas, la locura de un amor convertido en poema. El encanto de las palabras se basa, tal vez, en resumirla a usted, con todo lo que es y significa, cuando hablo de mí, y en sintetizarme al definirla. Somos uno y otro. El encanto de los textos, impresos o no, se debe, en parte, a que se trata de vivencias y de sueños, de ilusiones y de suspiros. de pausas y de capítulos. El sortilegio de nuestros poemarios se debe, creo, a que uno o cualquiera, al leerlos, adivina el nombre de usted y el mío. Cuando trazo una letra y…
