NYtimes : Clinton Ends Africa Tour in Cape Verde

U.S. officials say Cape Verde could serve as a model for other African nations as it has held numerous free and fair elections and has taken measures to ensure accountability and transparency in government."

Expresso: "Se não querem ouvir os EUA, pelo menos olhem para Cabo Verde" - Hillary Clinton
Hillary Clinton frisou que o seu périplo de nove dias por sete países da África subsariana terminou justamente em Cabo Verde para "mostrar aos outros países que a administração Obama acredita que o futuro de África passa pela boa governação".

Algum kusa...

Faz por esta altura 40 anos desde que foi tirada a famosa fotografia, que fez capa do disco Abbey Road, dos Beatles.

Podem ler mais no site da bbc: Revisiting Abbey Road 40 years on e no wikipedia: Abbey_Road_(album).

Num álbum cheio de coisas boas deixo-vos esta, que é das que gosto mais:

Something
(by George Harrison and the Beatles)

Something in the way she moves
Attracts me like no other lover
Something in the way she woos me
I don't want to leave her now
You know I believe and how

Somewhere in her smile she knows
That I don't need no other lover
Something in her style that shows me
I don't want to leave her now
You know I believe and how

You're asking me will my love grow
I don't know, I don't know
You stick around and it may show
I don't know, I don't know

Something in the way she knows
And all I have to do is think of her
Something in the things she shows me
I don't want to leave her now
You know I believe and how
