Adios Benedetti

An incredible writer died yesterday. He is Uruguayan, or better, he is latinamerican.
His books and poems were always present in the school, but it is one of those authors that crossed the borders of school assignments and took a permanent place in your life. I copy here two of his beautiful poems.

Táctica y estrategia
Mi táctica es / mirarte / aprender como sos /quererte como sos
mi táctica es / hablarte / y escucharte / construir con palabras / un puente indestructible
mi táctica es / quedarme en tu recuerdo / no sé cómo ni sé / con qué pretexto / pero quedarme en vos
mi táctica es / ser franco / y saber que sos franca / y que no nos vendamos / simulacros / para que entre los dos / no haya telón / ni abismos
mi estrategia es / en cambio / más profunda y más / simple
mi estrategia es / que un día cualquiera / no sé cómo ni sé / con qué pretexto / por fin me necesites.

Hagamos un trato
Compañera / usted sabe / puede contar / conmigo / no hasta dos / o hasta diez / sino contar / conmigo
si alguna vez / advierte /que la miro a los ojos /y una veta de amor /reconoce en los míos /no alerte sus fusiles /ni piense qué delirio /a pesar de la veta /o tal vez porque existe /usted puede contar / conmigo
si otras veces / me encuentra / huraño sin motivo /no piense qué flojera /igual puede contar /conmigo
pero hagamos un trato / yo quisiera contar /con usted
es tan lindo / saber que usted existe /uno se siente vivo / y cuando digo esto /quiero decir contar /aunque sea hasta dos / aunque sea hasta cinco / no ya para que acuda / presurosa en mi auxilio / sino para saber / a ciencia cierta / que usted sabe que puede / contar conmigo.

Amazons 2008 in picasa



I got time to upload some photos from the trip to the amazons last year. There are some photos that need to get additional light and better contrast (that'll come later), but in general you can get an idea of the trip.

The album is in picasa.

Spring photos

Lately I've got few time for uploading photos to this blog and to Picasa... Picasa's last album was 200805!! that's almost a year ago, and there are many many nice photos I would like to publish... Specially the last weeks I've been a bit crazy taking photos of the blooming trees and flowers during their spring wake up. Anyhow, I'll try to catch up. :)

Second paper accepted for publication

I got an e-mail from the editor of Med. Phys. saying: "I am pleased to inform you that your revised manuscript, referenced below, has been accepted for publication ...". without any "However" or "Nevertheless"!!! :) :D :D :)

The last flower before the summer sleep


It's a fact that my plant likes autumn and winter. Now it's preparing to sleep till next autumn, or as they say, it will take a long siesta... :)
