The troupe always included a vocal element, but Magda insists “it never crossed my mind to be a lead singer”. Yet she has recorded two albums with the Katende band. A nine-piece group, they fuse musica popular Brasilieira (MPB) with salsa, funk, and soca influences.

On my walk by McGehee today. Two of these doomed oaks are massive and likely greater than 150 years old. What a lovely space they’re about to destroy

...A wonder of rococo architecture, it commands a hilltop vista. Each year in January, devoted women in white clothing gather with brooms and buckets for a ceremonial "lavagem", or cleansing, of the church’s steps.

That's perfectly valid way for you balance your priorities. Good on you if you can afford that choice. But your personal preferences don't negate the economic reality that it is absolutely cheaper to prepare most of your meals yourself, compared to eating out most of the time.

It was a wicked big tragedy, but at least they went to meet their maker knowing there was nary a tomato in the entire deluge. That's got to be a source of consolation for their bereaved relations.

The Ironbound district in Newark, New Jersey has boasted a vibrant Portuguese-speaking population since the early 20th century. The influx from Portugal peaked in the 1950’s, but a lusophone vibe has been maintained by immigrants from Brazil, Cabo Verde, and other countries.

I hear what you're saying, but that is not my perspective. At all. To me, it remains the greatest American artwork of the 20th century, in any medium.

Never saw THE WIRE until 2026, when I binge-watched each season in rapid succession. By that time, I already knew - and loved- TREME . It amazed me that I was able watch Pierce and Clarke Peters running around Baltimore without thinking of their Crescent City characters. That's how good they are.
