Charles Aznavour
Jag gissar att fantastiske Aznavour, idag över 90 år gammal, inte gör några sångframträdanden längre.
Deux tziganes, sans répit,
grattent leurs guitares,
ranimant du fond des nuits
toute ma mémoire
Sans savoir que roule en moi
un flot de détresse,
font renaître sous leurs doigts
ma folle jeunesse
E kh raz, is cho raz, is ch mnaga mnaga raz
e kh raz, is cho raz
is cho mnaga mnaga raz
Jouez tziganes, jouez pour moi
avec plus de flammes
afin de couvrir la voix
qui dit mon âme :
Où as-tu mal ? Pourquoi tu es malade ?
T'as mal la tête mais,
bois un peu moins aujourd'hui
tu boiras plus demain
et encore plus après demain
E kh raz, is cho raz, is ch mnaga mnaga raz
e kh raz, is cho raz
is cho mnaga mnaga raz
Je veux rire, je veux chanter
et souler ma peine
pour oublier le passé
qu'avec moi je traîne
Allez, apportez-moi du vin fort
car le vin délivre
oh, versez, versez m'en encore
pour que je m'enivre
E kh raz, is cho raz, is ch mnaga mnaga raz
e kh raz, is cho raz
is cho mnaga mnaga raz
Deux guitares en ma pensée
jettent un trouble immense
M'expliquant la vanité
de notre existence
Que vivons nous ? Pourquoi vivons nous ?
Quelle est la raison d'être?
Tu es vivant aujourd'hui, tu seras mort demain
Et encore plus après demain
La la la ekh
en is ch, is ch, is ch mnaga mnaga mnaga eh
en is ch raz, ch mnaga mnaga raz
Quand je serais ivre mort
faible et lamentable
et que vous verrez mon corps
rouler sous la table, alors...
Alors vous pourrez cesser
vos chants qui résonnent
mais en attendant, jouez,
Jouez, j'ordonne!
La la la ekh
en is ch, is ch, is ch mnaga mnaga mnaga eh
en is ch raz, ch mnaga mnaga raz ! (x3)
The two guitars
Two gypsies without taking a break
are scratching on their guitars
From the depth of nights they revive
All my memories
Without knowing there's inside me
A big flood of distress
They bring back with their fingers
My youth of craziness
Hey, once again, play it once again
Again and again and again and again
Play it again
Play gypsies, play for me
With more passion than that
To drown out the voice
That speaks to my soul
Where are you hurt, why are you hurt ?
Ah you have a headache
But drink less today, you'll drink more tomorrow
And even more the day after tomorrow
Hey, once again, play it once again
Again and again and again and again
Play it again
I want to laugh and sing
And drink to cover my pain
To forget the past
That I'm carrying
Come on, bring me strong wine
Because the wine releases me
Oh, pour it, give me even more
So that I can get drunk
Hey, once again, play it once again
Again and again and again and again
Play it again
Two guitars throw in my thoughts
An infinite distress
As explaining the vanity
of our existence
What are we living, why do we even live ?
What is the reason to be alive ?
You live today, tomorrow you'll be dead
And even more dead the day after tomorrow
Hey, once again, play it once again
Again and again and again and again
Play it again
When I'll be dead drunk
Weak and pathetic
And that you'll see my body
Rolling down under the table
So then, then you can stop
Your resonating songs
But until that keep playing !
Play, it's my order
Hey, once again, play it once again
Again and again and again and again
Play it again
Marie Laforet (som idag är en gammal tant på nära 80 vårar)
Viens, viens
viens, viens, c'est une prière
viens, viens, pas pour moi mon père
viens, viens, reviens pour ma mère
viens, viens, elle meurt de toi
viens, viens, que tout recommence
viens, viens, sans toi l'existence
viens, viens, n'est qu'un long silence
viens, viens, qui n'en finit pas.
je sais bien qu'elle est jolie cette fille
que pour elle tu en oublies ta famille
je ne suis pas venue te juger
mais pour te ramener
il parait que son amour tient ton âme
crois-tu que ça vaut l'amour de ta femme
qui a su partager ton destin
sans te lâcher la main.
viens, viens, maman en septembre
viens, viens, a repeint la chambre
viens, viens, comme avant ensemble
viens, viens, vous y dormirez
viens, viens, c'est une prière
viens, viens, pas pour moi mon père
viens, viens, reviens pour ma mère
viens, viens, elle meurt de toi
sais-tu que jean est rentré à l'école
il sait déjà l'alphabet, il est drôle
quand il fait semblant de fumer
c'est vraiment ton portrait
viens, viens, c'est une prière
viens, viens, tu souris mon père
viens, viens, tu verras ma mère
viens, viens, est plus belle qu'avant
qu'avant, qu'avant, qu'avant, qu'avant
viens, viens, ne dis rien mon père
viens, viens, embrasse moi mon père.
viens, viens, tu es beau mon père
viens, viens, laaa lala
viens,viens, lalalalaalala
Come, Come
Come, come, it's a prayer
Come, come, not for me, my father
Come, come, come back for my mother
Come, come, she's dying to see you
Come, come, so everything may start again
Come, come, without you life
Come, come, is nothing but a long silence
Come, come, which never ends
I know very well that this girl is pretty
That for her, you're forgetting your own family
I'm not here to judge you
But to bring you back
I heard that her love has taken hold of your soul
Do you think it's worth the love of your wife?
Who shares your fate
Without ever letting go of your hand
Come, come, mother in September
Come, come, painted the bedroom
Come, come, just like before
Come, com, you slept there
Come, come, it's a prayer
Come, come, mot for me, my father
Come, come, come back for my mother
Come, come, she's dying to see you
Did you know that Jean started school?
He knows the alphabet already, he's funny
When he pretends he's smoking
He really looks like you
Come, come, it's a prayer
Come, come, you're smiling, my father
Come, come, you'll see that my mother
Come, come. Is more beautiful than before
Than before, than before, than before, than before
Come, come, don't say anything, my father
Come, come, kiss me, my father
Come, come, you're handsome, my father
Come, come, lala lala
Come, come, lalalalala
For Weight Loss, Less Exercise May Be More
But there is encouraging news about physical activity and weight loss in a new study by researchers at the University of Copenhagen. It found that exercise does seem to contribute to waist-tightening, provided that the amount of exercise is neither too little nor, more strikingly, too much.
To reach that conclusion, the Danish scientists rounded up a group of pudgy and sedentary young men, a segment of the population increasingly common in Denmark, as elsewhere in the world. The volunteers, most in their 20s or early 30s, visited the scientists’ lab to undergo baseline measurements of their aerobic fitness, body fat, metabolic rates and general health. None had diabetes, high blood pressure or heart disease and, while heavy, they were not obese.
The men were then randomly assigned to exercise or not. The non-exercisers, who served as controls, returned to their former routines, with no change to their diets or sedentary ways.
A second group began 13 weeks of almost daily moderate workouts, consisting of jogging, cycling or otherwise sweating for about 30 minutes, or until each man had burned 300 calories (based on his individual metabolic rate).
A third group tackled a more strenuous routine of almost hourlong workouts, during which each man burned 600 calories.
The men were asked not to consciously change their diets, either by eating more or less, and to keep detailed daily food diaries throughout the 13 weeks.
On certain designated days, they also were asked to don sophisticated motion sensors that would measure how active they were in the hours before and after exercise.
At the end of the 13 weeks, the members of the control group weighed the same as they had at the start, and their body fat percentages were unchanged, which is hardly surprising.
On the other hand, the men who had exercised the most, working out for 60 minutes a day, had managed to drop some flab, losing an average of five pounds each. The scientists calculated that that weight loss, while by no means negligible, was still about 20 percent less than would have been expected given the number of calories the men were expending each day during exercise, if food intake and other aspects of their life had held steady.
Meanwhile, the volunteers who’d worked out for only 30 minutes a day did considerably better, shedding about seven pounds each, a total that, given the smaller number of calories that they were burning during exercise, represents a hefty 83 percent “bonus” beyond what would have been expected, says Mads Rosenkilde, a Ph.D. candidate at the University of Copenhagen who led the study.
That impressive weight-loss windfall for the light-duty exercisers “was a bit of a shock,” he says.
And it’s not completely clear from the experiment’s additional data just why participants in that group were so much more successful at dropping pounds than the other men.
But there are hints, Mr. Rosenkilde says. Food diaries for the group burning 600 calories a day reveal that they subsequently were increasing the size of their meals and snacks, although the additional caloric intake wasn’t enough to explain the difference in their results. “They probably were eating more” than they jotted down, Mr. Rosenkilde speculates.
They also were resolutely inactive in the hours outside of exercise, the motion sensors show. When they weren’t working out, they were, for the most part, sitting. “I think they were fatigued,” Mr. Rosenkilde says.
The men exercising half as much, however, seemed to grow energized and inspired. Their motion sensors show that, compared with the men in the other two groups, they were active in the time apart from exercise. “It looks like they were taking the stairs now, not the elevators, and just moving around more,” Mr. Rosenkilde says. “It was little things, but they add up.”
The overall message, he says, is that the shorter exercise sessions seem to have allowed the men “to burn calories without wanting to replace them so much.” The hourlong sessions were more draining and prompted a stronger and largely unconscious desire to replenish the lost energy stores.
Of course, the study involved only young men, whose metabolisms and weight-loss motivations may be quite different from those of other groups, including women.
The study also was short-term, and the results might shift over the course of, say, a year of continued exercise, Mr. Rosenkilde says. The men working out for 60 minutes were, after all, packing on some muscle, while the 30-minute exercisers were not. That extra muscle offset some of the vigorous exercisers’ weight loss in the short term — they sloughed off fat but added muscle, decreasing their net loss — but over the longer term it could amp up their metabolism, aiding in weight control.
Still, if the relationship between working out and losing weight remains complicated and tangled, one point is unequivocal. The men who were sedentary “lost no weight at all,” Mr. Rosenkilde says, so if you hope to shed pounds, “any amount of exercise is better than none.”
Nästa regeringsbildare
Idag inleder den nye talmannen Andreas Norlén sonderingarna för att hitta nästa regeringsbildare, efter att Stefan Löfven blivit avsatt som statsminister tidigare i veckan. Det är ingen lätt uppgift med ett valresultat som inte gav något block majoritet och en övervikt för de rödgröna med ynka ett mandat.
Genom samtal med alla partiledare (med början idag med Löfven) sonderar den nye talmannen, Andreas Norlén, vem som har förutsättning att bilda regering. Han lägger sedan fram förslag till ny statsminister.

Musik
"Ni hade idag gärna kunnat undvikit att spela upp Bo Lindes Pensieri sopra un cantico vecchio, op 35 och Dietrich Buxtehudes Passacaglia d-moll BuxWV 161. Har jag inte tillräcklig teoretisk utbildning i musikämnet för att få ut något av dessa två nämnda musikstycken utan istället kände stor olust vid lyssnandet?"
PS Lyssna själv på nämnda musikstycken (Youtube). Hemskt för öronen !
PS Ja visst hade jag kunna stänga av radion men nämnda
musikstycken blev intressanta därför att de i en sådan hög drag avvek från den i övrigt presenterade musiken.
The New York Times
The New York Times was founded in September 1851 in the city of New York by The New York Times Company. The daily newspaper is the second-largest in circulation and the largest circulating metropolitan newspapers with a weekly circulation of 2.1 million. It is also ranked 18th in terms of world circulation. The New York Times is considered as a "newspaper of records" within the media industry. The international version of the newspaper is known as The New York Times International Version. The New York Times is divided into three main sections, namely the news section (which includes both international and national news), opinion section (including editorials), and a features section (which includes art, fashion, movies, and food
Giving Malaria a Deadline
With a new genetic tool, scientists move a step closer to eradicating mosquitoes and the deadly diseases they carry.
A false-color scanning electron micrograph of an Anopheles gambiae mosquito. By using a method called a gene drive, researchers believe they can eliminate a population of disease-carrying mosquitoes within a dozen generations
Nicholas Wade Sept 24
Malaria is among the world’s worst scourges. In 2016 the disease, which is caused by a parasite and transmitted by mosquitoes, infected 194 million people in Africa and caused 445,000 deaths.
But biologists now have developed a way of manipulating mosquito genetics that forces whole populations of the insect to self-destruct. The technique has proved so successful in laboratory tests that its authors envisage malaria could be eliminated from large regions of Africa within two decades.
A team led by Andrea Crisanti, a biologist at Imperial College, London, altered a gene that disrupts the mosquito’s sexual development; the females become infertile but the males remain able to spread the debilitating gene to an ever-dwindling number of progeny. Dr. Crisanti found that laboratory populations of mosquitoes can be driven to extinction within 11 generations, he and colleagues report in Monday’s issue of Nature Biotechnology. Wild populations could be made to crash in about four years, according to computer models.
The technique involves equipping mosquitoes with a gene drive, a genetic mechanism that forces a gene of choice into all of an organism’s offspring. (Normally, sexual reproduction would pass the gene to only half the progeny.) Genes carried by a gene drive therefore can spread very rapidly through a population, which makes the technique both powerful and potentially dangerous. No gene drive has yet been released in the wild.
