♬ Marlene Dietrich: Reheating A Man's Sins For Breakfast


WWOZ: "Marlene dietrich was proficient on the saw, slept with at least 3 Kennedys, her favorite breakfast was hotdogs & champagne, and said...'once, a woman has forgotten a man she should never reheat his sins for breakfast...but then what is the blues if not reheated sins?'" 10/2/11, 2:25 pm

♬ Pata Pata, Mama Afrika

Mama Afrika ~ Miriam Makeba

Zenzile Miriam Makeba (4 March 1932 – 9 November 2008), nicknamed Mama Africa, was a South African singer and civil rights activist.

In the 1960s, she was the first artist from Africa to popularize African music around the world. She is best known for the song "Pata Pata", first recorded in 1957 and released in the U.S. in 1967. She recorded and toured with many popular artists, such as Harry Belafonte, Paul Simon, and her former husband Hugh Masekela.

Makeba campaigned against the South African system of apartheid. The South African government responded by revoking her passport in 1960 and her citizenship and right of return in 1963. As the apartheid system crumbled she returned home for the first time in 1990.

Makeba died of a heart attack on 9 November 2008 after performing in a concert in Italy organised to support writer Roberto Saviano in his stand against the Camorra, a mafia-like organisation local to the region of Campania.

Elis Regina & Tom Jobim ~ Waters Of March / Águas de Março
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g3oNSFQVzNM


Elis Regina & Tom Jobim
(All following information reprinted from link below)
Águas de Março
É pau, é pedra,
é o fim do caminho
É um resto de toco,
é um pouco sozinho
É um caco de vidro,
é a vida, é o sol
É a noite, é a morte,
é um laço, é o anzol
É peroba do campo,
é o nó da madeira
Caingá, candeia,
é o Matita Pereira
É madeira de vento,
tombo da ribanceira
É o mistério profundo,
é o queira ou não queira
É o vento ventando,
é o fim da ladeira
É a viga, é o vão,
festa da cumeeira
É a chuva chovendo,
é conversa ribeira
Das águas de março,
é o fim da canseira
É o pé, é o chão,
é a marcha estradeira
Passarinho na mão,
pedra de atiradeira
É uma ave no céu,
é uma ave no chão
É um regato, é uma fonte,
é um pedaço de pão
É o fundo do poço,
é o fim do caminho
No rosto o desgosto,
é um pouco sozinho
É um estrepe, é um prego,
é uma conta, é um conto
É uma ponta, é um ponto,
é um pingo pingando
É um peixe, é um gesto,
é uma prata brilhando
É a luz da manhã,
é o tijolo chegando
É a lenha, é o dia,
é o fim da picada
É a garrafa de cana,
o estilhaço na estrada
É o projeto da casa,
é o corpo na cama
É o carro enguiçado,
é a lama, é a lama
É um passo, é uma ponte,
é um sapo, é uma rã
É um resto de mato,
na luz da manhã
São as águas de março
fechando o verão
É a promessa de vida
no teu coração
É uma cobra, é um pau,
é João, é José
É um espinho na mão,
é um corte no pé
É um passo, é uma ponte,
é um sapo, é uma rã
É um belo horizonte,
é uma febre terçã
São as águas de março
fechando o verão
É a promessa de vida
no teu coração
Waters of March
A stick, a stone,
It's the end of the road
It's the rest of a stump,
It's a little alone
It's a sliver of glass,
It is life, it's the sun,
It is night, it is death,
It's a trap, it's a gun
The oak when it blooms,
A fox in the brush,
A knot in the wood,
The song of a thrush
The wood of the wind,
A cliff, a fall,
A scratch, a lump,
It is nothing at all
It's the wind blowing free,
It's the end of the slope,
It's a beam, it's a void,
It's a hunch, it's a hope
And the river bank talks
of the waters of March,
It's the end of the strain,
The joy in your heart
The foot, the ground,
The flesh and the bone,
The beat of the road,
A slingshot's stone
A fish, a flash,
A silvery glow,
A fight, a bet,
The range of a bow
The bed of the well,
The end of the line,
The dismay in the face,
It's a loss, it's a find
A spear, a spike,
A point, a nail,
A drip, a drop,
The end of the tale
A truckload of bricks
in the soft morning light,
The shot of a gun
in the dead of the night
A mile, a must,
A thrust, a bump,
It's a girl, it's a rhyme,
It's a cold, it's the mumps
The plan of the house,
The body in bed,
And the car that got stuck,
It's the mud, it's the mud
Afloat, adrift,
A flight, a wing,
A hawk, a quail,
The promise of spring
And the riverbank talks
of the waters of March,
It's the promise of life
It's the joy in your heart
A stick, a stone,
It's the end of the road
It's the rest of a stump,
It's a little alone
A snake, a stick,
It is John, it is Joe,
It's a thorn in your hand
and a cut in your toe
A point, a grain,
A bee, a bite,
A blink, a buzzard,
A sudden stroke of night
A pin, a needle,
A sting, a pain,
A snail, a riddle,
A wasp, a stain
A pass in the mountains,
A horse and a mule,
In the distance the shelves
rode three shadows of blue
And the riverbank talks
of the waters of March,
It's the promise of life
in your heart, in your heart
A stick, a stone,
The end of the road,
The rest of a stump,
A lonesome road
A sliver of glass,
A life, the sun,
A knife, a death,
The end of the run
And the riverbank talks
of the waters of March,
It's the end of all strain,
It's the joy in your heart.


Note: You will note that the English translation is longer than
the original Portuguese version. Jobim added lyrics to the
song when it made the transition to English. If you speak
Portuguese, you will also notice that some of the English
lyrics bear no resemblance to the original lyrics. For example,
the beautiful fourth stanza more properly translates to "It is
wood that resists the wind, the falls of the riverbank, it's the
profound mystery, it's wanting or not wanting." You can find
more faithful (but perhaps less lyrical) translations, such as

this one or this one. In each case, however, both the original
lyrics and translations are flawed. Regarding the original lyrics,
trust those offered at the
 Jobim fan site (which are the ones
offered on this page). 
This translation is a little better,
(and you can read about the results of selecting the best
Brazilian song of all time ... guess first, of course).
Regrettably, no translation can do justice to the original lyrics.
You've just got to learn Portuquese

Welcome Women To 2011!

Dear Women's Holistic Health & Natural Healing Friends,

A new year is upon us!

I hope that 2010 wrapped up gently for you and has already, given way to a beautiful start of 2011. One, of many, delights to our group is the desire we all share to make ourselves, and the world around us, the healthiest and happiest possible.

In this light, I invite (and encourage!) you to post blessings and wishes for 2011 on our group wall. A belief in sharing love is one of the most powerful ways to manifest blessings.

Wishing all in Women's Holistic Health & Natural Healing group, and in the world around us, a prosperous, bountiful, harmonious, womanny 2011.

Thank you for being you.

XOhmm,
~Jennifer ♥
