"The Hindus recognized six principal varieties of taste with sixty-three possible mixtures ... the Greeks eight .... These included the four that are now regarded as fundamental, namely 'sweet,' 'bitter,' 'acid,' 'salt.' ... The others were 'pungent' (Gk. drimys, Skt. katuka-), 'astringent' (Gk. stryphnos, Skt. kasaya-), and, for the Greeks, 'rough, harsh' (austeros), 'oily, greasy' (liparos), with the occasional addition of 'winy' (oinodes)." [Buck]

Hermitage Museum Amsterdam, Netherlands
Amsterdam 1018 DP, Netherlands
Tel: 31 20 530 87 55
Website: www.hermitage.nl
The Hermitage museum in St. Petersburg has been loaning art and historical artifacts to Amsterdam exhibitions for years, although it wasn't until 2004 that a permanent space near the Amstel River was designated to house the treasures. The first phase, some 5,300 square feet of galleries in a 17th-century building redesigned by architect Hans van Heeswijk, has presented two shows from the mother ship each year. On June 20, 2009, doors will open upon a greatly expanded Hermitage Amsterdam, with an entertainment complex that includes a restaurant, terrace, concert hall, and landscaped courtyard garden. The opening show, At the Russian Court, will run until January 31, 2010, and will feature more than 1,800 works. Thereafter, the museum plans on two large-scale temporary exhibitions each year.
Open daily only during exhibitions. Call ahead or check website for details.
Negen Straatjes, Netherlands
Website: www.theninestreets.com
In the heart of the Western Canal Belt, "the Nine Streets" are a tic-tac-toe board filled with small, specialized home, fashion, and art boutiques. At Laura Dols, vintage organza party dresses look ready to float out the door and table linens are hand-embroidered with garlands of candy-colored flowers (6-7 Wolvenstraat; 31-20-624-9066; www.lauradols.nl). Two doors down, the long-running H. J. van de Kerkhof, which opened for business here in 1938, is stocked with only the trimmings—silk ribbons, bows, and a taxonomy of tassels (9-11 Wolvenstraat; 31-20-623-4666). Continue down Wolvenstratt across the Keizersgracht canal to browse Mendo's oversized fashion, photography, and graphic-design books—themselves a study in flawless taste (11 Berenstraat; 31-20-612-1216; www.mendo.nl). A block to the north from Mendo's, de Weldaad is filled with the recovered detritus of old canal houses, such as end-irons, Delft tiles, and neoclassical busts (1 Reestraat; 31-20-627-0077; www.weldaad.com); if you're shopping for something richer, but lighter, head south a block to stock up on green-tea chocolates and Dutch butter cookies from Pompadour patisserie and tearoom (12 Huidenstraat; 31-20-623-9554).
Albert Cuypmarkt, Netherlands
Amsterdam, Netherlands
People speak of this street market in superlatives: longest-running (since 1904), largest (several long blocks), most diverse (dozens of ethnicities), and that's just for starters. From 9:30 am to 5 pm Monday through Saturday, street stalls and shops sell fresh fruit and fresh fish, exotic herbs and exotic pets, umbrellas and underwear. Signs reading "Hollandse Nieuwe" announce that it's the season for herring, the quintessential Dutch street food (dangle it over your mouth and gradually lower it). Another reason to visit: The market is still frequented more by locals than tourists.
Noordermarkt, Netherlands
The best place for watching classic Jordaan bohemians, this canal-side market sits on a square at the foot of the Noorderkerk, one of Amsterdam's oldest, most austere churches, and does double-duty. On Saturdays, neo-hippie farmers and foragers sell organic produce and cut off wedges of prime artisanal Gouda from wheels bigger than tractor tires. On Mondays, the textile vendors take over, shaking out bolts of fabric (sold by the meter), and filmy lengths of jewel-toned saris alongside hawkers of antiques, clothing, and bric-a-brac.

Website: www.miauw.com
If historic canal-side hotels, such as the Ambassade, let you pretend to be a Golden Age burgher, Miauw Suites makes you feel like a contemporary Amsterdammer living in your own stylish apartment in the bohemian Nine Streets district. The hotel's co-owner, fashion designer Analik Brouwer, meets you in the ground-floor exhibition space and hands over your keys. While the four guest rooms vary in size (there are two suites and two bedrooms), they all have the same impeccable accents: pillowy white duvets, sandstone or limestone bathrooms with heated floors and cascade showerheads, a ready-to-use iMac on a little wooden desk, Diptyque candles, fresh flower bouquets, and a well-edited stack of DVDs (Brouwer's partner, Rene Eller, is a director). The rooms are all also surprisingly affordable: A 300-square-foot bedroom with private bath is $210; the top-floor White Suite ($350) comes with a fully equipped kitchen, separate bedroom, and long combination dining/living area punctuated by a gray Cubist couch and Persian rug. The long bank of windows overlooking the Keizersgracht is alone worth the tariff.

The blah Canal Crowne Hotel was taken over by Carlton Hotel Collection, a NetherlandsUK boutique chain, and reopened in May 2004 as a far nicer prospect. Instead of relying on high design as so many other new places in the Dutch capital do, it's taking a shot at being the coziest, comfiest hotel in town. In fact, the design is fine too, taking its cue from the early-20th-century building itselfa former bank on the Vijzelstraat "Golden Bend" of the Herengracht Canaland riffing on H.P. Berlage's Amsterdam School and Frank Lloyd Wright. It all ends up looking homey in a vaguely Art Deco way, especially in the lounge, called "The Living," with its leather chairs and brass lamps, and in "The Kitchen," with its checkerboard tiled floor, pine dresser, and giant old-fashioned range. Breakfast (included) is cooked to order in "The Kitchen," and guests are encouraged to hang out there and in "The Living," where all drinks and snacks are free. Contents of your minibar and unlimited Internet and movie channels are gratis as well. Right there, they're onto a good thing, and the website has incredibly low last-minute deals. Who needs a spa anyway?

Review: DJ Player provides a full suite of digital tools for your music collection
Mix, match, and control your favorite tracks from your iOS device.
DJ Player is more than just another iOS DJ app--providing additional tools that others in the same genre do not, and making it possible to create a number of effects on your iOS device. While the full suite of tools can create an intimidating series of menus on your phone's screen, those who master the controls can create some truly impressive tracks.
Unlike other apps in the genre, DJ Player starts on the music loading screen, which to be honest, makes a lot more sense. Drawing from your Music App (though it will not load anything in iCloud or that has DRM on it), the app works quickly and efficiently to load music into your mixing booth so you can mix it to your heart's content. The first time you see the interface, if you're not a trained DJ, you may be a bit overwhelmed, but all of the options are clearly labeled and fairly easy to use. The results can be varied of course, as is the case with any musical instrument; but with recording and playback options, you can practice and improve your sounds with time. It's a very well designed system in that way.
DJ Player has many of the same limitations of other mixing apps, but it also goes beyond them, providing what could easily become a portable digital lab for musicians and producers testing out new sounds. It obviously cannot replace a studio but it does a fair job of providing enough options for those who are dabbling to create some amazing sounds.

This is a detailed story of the band The Smiths by a clearly ardent fan that would certainly be of interest to other fans of the band (like myself), but also to anyone following the history of indie music. They are such an English band, and the author details many locations and subtexts that may not be readily apparent to those who are not native Mancunians or familiar with British pop culture and local history. He talks about all of the band's influences and shows the reader where they fit into musical history. This is a really thick book of 704 pages covering the span of the band's life, so there's a lot of detail here, considering they were only together for 6 years.

"Me before You: a novel" by Jojo Moyes
Me before You is the story of Louisa Clark, and Will Traynor. "Lou" is a small town British girl, living with her zany family, and a waitress in a small Tea Shoppe. She answers an ad in the paper for a companion to a young man, and is hired for her likability and cheerfulness. Will, who was once a very active man, had an accident and is now a quadriplegic. His depression and sorrow are understood, but his mother would like him to live life in a different way. What follows is a combining of heart and soul, as these two unlikely people share their lives careening toward an unbelievable ending.
"The Last Runaway" by Tracy Chevalier
In the early 1850's Quaker sisters, Honor and Grace Bright, set sail for America. They begin a journey to Ohio where Grace will marry Adam Cox, a Quaker, who has settled near Oberlin, Ohio. In Pennsylvania Grace contacts Yellow Fever and dies. With the help of strangers, Honor continues to Ohio. Her arrival, instead of her sister Grace, is an unwelcome surprise to the small Cox household. While Honor struggles to adapt to the Quaker Community in America, she, unwittingly, becomes involved with the Underground Railroad. Once again, Tracy Chevalier has written an informative and compelling historical novel.

CVS/pharmacy is midway through its annual Project Health campaign and plans to hold hundreds more free wellness events in major cities over the next few months, with changes brought by health care reform being a key focus.
Retail News Breaks
WOONSOCKET, R.I. – CVS/pharmacy is midway through its annual Project Health campaign and plans to hold hundreds more free wellness events in major cities over the next few months, with changes brought by health care reform being a key focus.
The drug chain said Thursday that more than 375 Project Health events — Proyecto Salud in Spanish — will be held at CVS stores during September, October and November in 10 cities, including Atlanta, Chicago, Dallas-Fort Worth, Detroit, Houston, Los Angeles, Miami, New York, Philadelphia and Washington, D.C.
Several events will also be held across Ohio in October. Project Health events will also be held at select CVS/pharmacy locations in Puerto Rico.
By the end of 2013, more than 770 Project Health events will have taken place, delivering more than $15 million of free health screenings to multicultural communities nationwide since the initiative's launch in March.
Focused on promoting preventive health care, Project Health offers a range of free health risk assessments, including blood pressure, body mass index (BMI), blood glucose and cholesterol screenings, as well as smoking cessation counseling. Children age 7 and older can participate in screenings with parental consent.
CVS said that in September, representatives from Get Covered America will be available at Project Health events to inform consumers about the new health insurance marketplaces and their coverage options under the Affordable Care Act health reform law. Health insurance experts will also be available at Project Health events in October and November.
"We know that our Project Health events are a great way to reach customers who may not have health insurance. In fact, about 45% of past attendees were uninsured," Helena Foulkes, executive vice president and chief health care strategy and marketing officer for CVS Caremark, said in a statement. "As a pharmacy health care provider, we have a responsibility to help our patients make informed decisions about their health care, including the new health care coverage options available to them. Increased access to health care coverage will improve health outcomes and is in line with our purpose of helping people on their path to better health."
After Project Health participants are screened, CVS then helps them through on-site consultations with bilingual (Spanish/English) nurse practitioners or physician assistants, who analyze results and refer those requiring further medical attention to no-cost or low-cost medical facilities nearby or to their primary care physician if follow-up care is needed. CVS pharmacists also are available to conduct one-on-one medication reviews and answer patient questions.
Last year, about 160,000 people were screened through Project Health events, according to CVS.
"By increasing access to vital preventive care through Project Health events," Foulkes added, "we are not only helping patients identify chronic conditions they may be at risk for, we are also arming them with the tools they need to take charge of their health and ultimately lead healthier lives."

The Chicago Cubs now head on down to L.A. for a four-game tilt against the best team in the National League, the Dodgers. Isn't it sweet that the Cubs' get a home and home for four games against the Dodgers this year? A refresher on the series preview here at Bleacher Nation:
The idea is to hook you up with the bare minimum of what you need to know about every series this year. That way you can look like a genius, hardcore fan in front of all your friends, with minimum effort. Oh, and there will be pictures of hot chicks, too.
We're Going Streaking
Well, you know the story on the Cubs – lose, lose, lose, and lose some more. A horrific stretch has seen them fall from first place in the Central to six games out in just over a week. The Cubs managed just one win against the Padres, and it's not as if a four game set against the Dodgers is going to be the salvo.
The Dodgers are probably in their worst stretch of the year, going 10-16 over the past month. It's hard to believe, but the Giants and Rockies are now closer to the Dodgers in the West than the Cubs are to the Cardinals in the Central.
Game Times and Broadcasts
- Thursday, August 20 at 9:10 CT on WGN.
- Friday, August 21 at 9:10 CT on CSN+.
- Saturday, August 22 at 3:10 CT on FOX.
- Sunday, August 23 at 3:10 CT on WGN.
Expected Starters and Lineups
These lineups are likely to be, well, wrong. But they'll be close.
Starters: Tom Gorzelanny (5-2, 5.24), Randy Wells (9-5, 3.01), Ted Lilly (9-7, 3.42), Ryan Dempster (6-7, 4.28)
- Fukudome, CF
- Bradley, RF
- Lee, 1B
- Ramirez, 3B
- Soriano, LF
- Soto, C
- Baker/Fontenot, 2B
- Theriot, SS
- Pitcher
Starters: Jeff Weaver (5-4, 3.71), Randy Wolf (7-6, 3.43), Charlie Haeger (0-1, 3.86), Chad Billingsley (12-6, 3.70)
Lineup (the Dodgers' moves literally daily, so, yeah…):
- Rafael Furcal, SS
- Russell Martin, C
- Andre Ethier, RF
- Manny Ramirez, LF
- Casey Blake, 3B
- Matt Kemp, CF
- James Loney, 1B
- Orlando Hudson, 2B
- Pitcher
Hot or Not and Whom to Watch
Every Chicago Cub with a bat is going to need to step up in this series. The Cubs miss the Dodgers' best starter, Clayton Kershaw, so they need to take advantage. Further, hopefully Ted Lilly's excellent first start back from the DL was simply the first of many.
Good God the Dodgers have an absurd lineup. It reminds me, top to bottom, of how I felt about the Cubs' lineup last year. There is not an easy out until you get to the pitcher – and mathematically, if everyone gets a hit but the pitcher, I think that may lead to some runs.
Series She-View
And now the best part of the preview: if the teams were represented by beautiful women, who would they be, and what would the match up look like. I thought long and hard about who would represent the Cubs this year. Given the fact that she's thrown out the first pitch, sung the Seventh Inning Stretch, probably likes the Cubs – oh, and the fact that she is a level of hot commensurate with the Chicago Cubs' ability, I've chosen supermodel Marisa Miller. You're welcome.
For the Los Angeles Dodgers, this is easily the most difficult decision of the year. Some teams are hard because there are no attractive women associated with the team/city. For the Dodgers, it's the exact opposite.
I would like you to name one attractive woman that does not have at least some connection to Los Angeles. Just one. Can't do it. I promise.
So it's all up to me. I'm going to start with a limiting factor: I'll restrict this one to women who actually live in L.A., not just work there. Last time, I went with "reality" star Audrina Patridge.
Say what you will about the Hills (guilty pleasure, sigh…), but getting to stare at hot chicks in bikinis with your wife sitting right there, under the guise that you're spending quality time together watching shows you both like… well, that's just a damn good plan.
But we're going to change it up this time – though sticking with the Hills theme. This time, we'll go with the new star of the Hills. You remember her from Laguna Beach (you don't? oh…), the very hot Kristin Cavallari.

Here are the highlights from Tuesday's Headlines on Dennis & Callahan with Kirk Minihane, John Dennis and Gerry Callahan. To hear the segment, go to the Dennis & Callahan audio on demand page.
A California woman tried to slide down the chimney into the house of a man she had met online and dated a few times. Genoveva Nunez-Figueroa, 30, was arrested Sunday after screaming for help when she got stuck. Firefighters needed about two hours to free her, and she later was arrested for illegal entry and providing false information.
"How many times does this have to happen every year for somebody to realize you can't break into somebody's house sliding down their damn chimney," Dennis said.
"Weren't you like 8 years old when you realized that there was stuff in the way?" Callahan said. "I mean, you saw plenty of Christmas shows that Santa could get down there, but after like fourth grade you realized you couldn't do it."
The man said Nunez-Figueroa had tried to break into his home before, climbing on the roof.
Said Dennis: "They went out on six dates and then he said, 'Uh, I've had enough, I don't want to see you anymore.' And she said, 'No, I'm going to be up on your roof.' "
Said Callahan: "She didn't want to try like a window or a basement door?"
– Former White House intern Monica Lewinsky gave her first public speech Monday at a conference in Philadelphia and talked about her 1990s affair with President Bill Clinton and the public humiliation she endured when it was revealed.
"Sixteen years ago, fresh out of college, a 22 year old intern in the White House — and more than averagely romantic — I fell in love with my boss in a 22-year old sort of way. It happens," Lewinsky said. "But my boss was the president of the United States. That probably happens less often. Now I deeply regret it for many reasons, not the least of which is that people were hurt. And that is never OK."
Lewinsky said she is striving to end cyberbullying, claiming that she was the first person to have her reputation destroyed via the Internet.
Said Callahan: "I'd rather be with the chick in the chimney."
Here are the highlights from Monday's Headlines on Dennis & Callahan with guest host Jerry Thornton, John Dennis and Gerry Callahan. To hear the segment, go to the Dennis & Callahan audio on demand page.
– Keene State College students ruined the New Hampshire town's annual pumpkin festival this weekend. The unruly students held out-of-control parties at or near the event, threw things and destroyed property. Police in riot gear responded with tear gas.
In the end, 30 people were injured and at least 12 were arrested.
"What do you do at Pumpkin Fest?" asked Callahan. "Other than smash windows and break bottles over people's heads, what do you do at Pumpkin Fest?"
Replied Thornton: "This is the kind of thing that gives riots a bad name, because there are good riots. I would say the Boston Massacre was for a good cause."
"I would think that if you're going to riot at a pumpkin fest, it would include smashing pumpkins on the ground, right?" said Dennis.
Asked Thornton: "What was the point of this? Was it anti-pumpkin? Were they being denied pumpkins? Are their pumpkin rights being infringed upon? … I could get behind that if they said there's too much pumpkin spice."
– A Hopkinton bus driver was arrested Saturday night for operating under the influence after he transported the high school cross country team home after a meet. It was 59-year-old Robert Murphy's third drunk driving arrest.
"He was driving a school bus and he's already had two [OUI arrests]?" asked Callahan.
"It was 10:30 p.m., it wasn't like he was going to school in the morning, and had a couple of mimosas," Thornton said. "How are you going to keep a school bus driver sober at 10:30?"
– An Ohio kidnapping victim of 11 years answered questions in front of a live audience for the first time since she was released from captivity a year ago. Michelle Knight went as far as to forgive her captor Ariel Castro, saying Castro only held her because he had a disease.
"I'm in the wrong profession," Thornton said. "I want to be a therapist. And no matter what somebody comes at me with, I'm just going to say it's a disease. His disease happens to be rape, torture, beating the girls that he impregnates so that they'll miscarry."
"[Knight] had five miscarriages when he was impregnating her and beating her for 11 years," Callahan said incredulously. "But she forgives him."
Here are the highlights from Friday's Headlines on Dennis & Callahan with Kirk Minihane, John Dennis and Gerry Callahan. To hear the segment, go to the Dennis & Callahan audio on demand page.
– A friend of Boston Marathon bombing suspect Dzhokhar Tsarnaev is on trial for lying to FBI investigators about his presence in a University of Massachusetts-Dartmouth dorm when two other friends removed potential evidence from the room. Robel Phillipos claimed that he was too high on marijuana to understand what was going on in the dorm.
To help Phillipos' case, former governor Michael Dukakis came to his defense as a witness. Dukakis said he is a family friend of the Phillipos.
Said Callahan: "A kid, who's claiming that he was too stoned to know what was going on. … How could you testify for the character of a guy who's claiming he was too stoned to know what was going on?"
"Even if I thought the kid was OK I wouldn't testify for him," replied Dennis. "I guess they subpoenaed [Dukakis], though, right? He had no choice."
Dukakis said he took a young Phillipos to the Democratic National Convention in 2004.
"If you're a young boy, and you have the chance to hang out with Michael Dukakis, and go to the Democratic National Convention, how do you turn that down?" asked Minihane.
"More than ever, I want this kid to get 20 years," said Callahan. "Dukakis will visit him, right? Sit down and have long conversations with him. … [Phillipos] has to get convicted."
– Hunter Biden, son of Vice President Joe Biden, was discharged from the Navy after he tested positive for cocaine in a drug test from last year, according to a report crediting a source close to the situation. Biden joined the Navy Reserves two years ago as a public affairs officer.
"It's not his fault they named him Hunter," said Dennis. "Doesn't it go bad generally when you're named Hunter?"
"I think he's got a good defense here, he was too high on coke to know that he was doing coke," Callahan said sarcastically. "It could work."
– An Arizona radio show argued earlier this week about the Oakland Raiders' brand. Ron Wolfley, one of the hosts on the Doug & Wolf Show, argued that the Raiders still are a highly valued franchise. Doug Franz, one the other hand, said he felt Oakland is not relevant to the younger generation.
The argument was so heated that it nearly led to a full-out brawl between the two hosts.
The hosts ran a clip of the shouting match and were surprised by the argument.
Asked Dennis: "Is he suggesting that the Oakland Raiders are one of the great remains, one of the great brands in the world? … Oh my God, this guy's out of his mind."
– The movie "Fury" starring Brad Pitt in a World War II tank brigade opens in theaters Friday. It will be Pitt's second war movie in the last decade, as he also had a major role in "Inglorious Bastards."
"I hope it's half as good as the trailers," said Callahan.
"The reviews are pretty good, so it's encouraging," replied Minihane. "It's looks like it's actually pretty good."

Video Believed to show Ghonim arrest.
The video comes from a demonstration of journalists in Cairo. At minute 1:04 as the secret police arrive and seize a man believed to be Wael Ghonim and take him away. While there is not yet confirmation that this is Wael, it looks like him – and is quite an example of how the security forces under Mubarak operate.
Ghonim is the head of marketing for Google in the Middle East and North Africa and has been missing since the date this footage was shot by Sky News (UK).
Global Voices provides a timeline:
On Twitter, friends express concerns for Egyptian blogger and Google Middle East staffer Wael Ghonim, who has been missing since Thursday. Ghonim, who studied in Cairo and is now Head of Marketing at Google's UAE office, had tweeted his intent to be at the January 25 protests:
Despite all the warnings I got from my relative and friends, I'll be there on #Jan25 protests. Anyone going to be in Gam'et Dewal protest?
Ghonim, who spoke at a recent Al Jazeera forum on Internet freedom, tweeted throughout the demonstrations on January 25. On the 26th, following the ban on Twitter, he expressed anger at the censors in a tweet that would become a "top tweet":
A government that is scared from #Facebook and #Twitter should govern a city in Farmville but not a country like #Egypt #Jan25
On the 27th, he asked followers to pray for Egypt, noting his own fear for the day's events. Since then, his Twitter feed has been silent.
The LA Times reported two days ago that the April 6 protesters have appointed Ghonim one of their spokespeople:
There is widespread speculation that Ghonim, who is Google's head of marketing in the Middle East and North Africa, is being held by Mubarak's government, though the government hasn't confirmed holding him.
On Thursday, a leader of the 6th of April opposition group told CBS reporter Khaled Wassef that the protesters in Cairo's Tahrir Square had elected Ghonim the group's spokesman. Tahir Square has been the scene of violent protests recently, with pro-Mubarak supporters having attacked thousands of anti-government demonstrators.
According to CBS, the 6th of April group told Wassef that if the government leaders want to talk to the group they need to talk to Ghonim.
There are reports circulating on twitter that he is in custody but due to be released soon.
Here's another version of the video showing just the arrest portion. The arrest
Remember that Ghonim is one of untold numbers who have been seized and are being held and likely tortured by the Mubarak regime.

Sandberg: Speak up, believe in yourself, take risksBy Sheryl Sandberg, Special to CNNUpdated 11:26 AM ET, Mon March 18, 2013Just WatchedSandberg: Upside for men in 'Lean In'replayMore Videos ...Sandberg: Upside for men in 'Lean In' 05:39Story highlightsSheryl Sandberg: Men still rule the world, and we need to talk about gender issuesShe says there are remarkable stories of women overcoming obstacles to successSandberg created organization to focus on helping women find paths to successShe anticipates day when half the homes are run by men and half the companies by womenMy hope in writing "Lean In: Women, Work, and the Will to Lead" was to change the conversation from what women can't do to what we can. We need a national conversation that examines the barriers that hold women back and prevent us from achieving true equality. Additionally and just as importantly, we need personal conversations among us all -- managers and employees, friends, colleagues, partners, parents and children -- where issues about gender are discussed openly. The blunt truth is that men still run the world. Of today's 195 independent countries, only 17 are led by women. In the United States, where our founding creed promises liberty and justice for all, women constitute just 18% of our elected congressional officials. Since the early 1980s, educational achievement has steadily increased for women, while leadership in the workplace has plateaued. A meager 21 of the Fortune 500 CEOs are women. Women hold about 14% of executive officer positions and 16% of board seats. The gap is worse for women of color, who hold just 4% of top corporate jobs, 3% of board seats and 5% of congressional seats. Even more distressing, the percentage of women at the top of corporate America has barely budged over the past decade. This means that when it comes to making the decisions that most affect us all, women's voices are not heard equally.Just WatchedLaura Bush: My girls help othersreplayMore Videos ...Laura Bush: My girls help others 01:21PLAY VIDEOHow do we change this? As I wrote in "Lean In," women are held back by many institutional barriers: sexism, discrimination, a lack of flexibility and a U.S. public policy that lags behind that of most developed nations. But women are also held back by stereotypes that persist and remain self-fulfilling. By talking openly about the challenges that women face in the workplace and at home, we can work toward solutions together. We can't ignore the subject any longer. We need to talk and listen, debate and learn, evolve and take action.Work, family and 'leaning in': 7 families trying to make it workTo help address these issues, I co-founded Leanin.org, a global community dedicated to encouraging women to lean in to their ambitions. In addition to providing educational videos (such as "Negotiation" and "Creating a Level Playing Field"), Leanin.org also allows women to come together and share stories of how they have been able to overcome obstacles to pursue a goal. Men, too, offer stories of how they mentored and supported female colleagues, friends and partners during key career moments. The stories are fascinating. Not every story will speak to everyone, but viewed collectively they illuminate and connect.One of the most remarkable stories comes from Marie Tueller, who bravely and beautifully writes about how she found the strength to testify against her rapist in court even though he had threatened her life and the life of her child. This courageous testimony put him in jail for 31 years without possibility of parole. Another story that I've read over and over comes from Kelly Wickham, an assistant principal in Springfield, Illinois. Pregnant at 15, Kelly persevered to graduate from college, become a teacher, earn a master's degree and take on greater and greater responsibilities at work. As she says, "In my second year of [graduate] classes, a professor asked why I wanted to become a principal. I responded that leadership found me, and I wasn't going to shy away from it any longer."Former first lady Laura Bush opens up about her deep concern for children after the tragedy of 9/11 and her work to comfort their fears. Photographer Me Ra Koh found that photography helped heal her pain after a miscarriage. Sen. Mazie Hirono of Hawaii talks about how her mother worked two jobs to support her children. As the senator explains, "I was not born into wealth, power or political legacy, and my path to the Senate was improbable as any."These stories are about women finding their voice and their strength. And while the situations vary wildly among the Lean In stories, a few messages resonate throughout: Speak up. Believe in yourself. Take risks. If your dream is to be a firefighter and you're in law school, you can make it happen, as Brenda Berkman describes in her inspiring story. It took her five years and a major lawsuit that challenged the New York City Fire Department's discriminatory hiring practices to do it, but she made her dream come true.Not all the stories are about leaning in. As I discuss in my book, there are times when it makes sense for us to lean back. Musician Nancy Kuo writes about working as hard as she could, piling on gig after gig, until she decided to track down a father she never knew. The search ended up changing her life: "I'm not moving as fast anymore, and have found by slowing down, I actually have time to work on my most important relationship -- the one I have with myself."These stories are full of strong emotions. I urge you to go to the site and find the ones that resonate with you.Do you fear public speaking? You might be interested to know that you share that fear with Sandra Jurado, the 22-year-old national youth president of the League of United Latin American Citizens. And, surprisingly, with actress Reese Witherspoon. Ursula Burns, chair and CEO of Xerox, shares a powerful story about her experience. She writes, "I was raised by a wonderful mother in the rough and tumble public housing projects on the Lower East Side of Manhattan. Many people told me I had three strikes against me: I was black. I was a girl. And I was poor. Mom didn't see it that way. She constantly reminded me that where I was didn't define who I was."We can each define ambition and progress for ourselves. The goal is to work toward a world where expectations are not set by the stereotypes that hold us back, but by our personal passion, talents and interests. I look forward to the day when half our homes are run by men and half our companies and institutions are run by women. When that happens, it won't just mean happier women and families; it will mean more successful businesses and better lives for us all. Follow @CNNOpinion on Twitter.Join us at Facebook/CNNOpinion.

I found an amazing longan drink recipe that cured my insomnia. It's so simple and delicious that you can make it anytime you feel anxious or stressed out.
There are only three ingredients needed, five cups of water, three and one half ounces (100 grams) of dried longan and salt to taste. I use rock salt but you can substitute sea salt if you prefer.
All you do is bring the water to boil, add the dried fruit and reduce it to a simmer for ten to fifteen minutes until the fruit is soft. Then add salt to taste and serve warm.
Some people prefer to drink it cold and I've heard that others like to strain the fruit and eat it separately, but I like mine hot with chunks of warm fruit all in the same cup.

"Thank you for helping change my life. Thanks to your recommendations for the Skin Rejuvenation Plan, my skin looks healthy and clear. Every time I look in the mirror I am amazed. I have recommended American Laser Skincare to all of my friends and will continue to do so. I believe in your services and results."
"The skin tightening services from American Laser Skincare improved the look and feel of my skin. The fine lines were minimized and I looked 10 years younger after just 3 treatments. I would recommend this service to anyone looking for an alternative to surgery."
I was concerned going into my treatment that I would be able to achieve the results I was hoping for. After just 4 treatments I noticed a significant change around my eyes, helping look and feel years younger. I am going to follow up with a series of fotoFacial treatments, can't wait to enjoyy the results.

text: "Enthusiastic and involved" are two words that only begin to describe the force of nature known as alumna Sally Bjorkman '83. A spirited volunteer, her alumnae involvement with Alverno includes more than 20 years working as a volunteer assessor and participating in various alumnae committees, including work as a past president of the Alumnae Association. Today her mission is to encourage others to share of themselves and get involved. Volunteering has always been important to Sally, but it was retirement in 2004 that put that interest into overdrive. Her current passion is the Mad Hot Ballroom and Tap, or MHBT, dance competition that occurs in Milwaukee in May. The Ballroom event involves local 5th and 6th graders from primarily low income schools in Milwaukee's central city. Milwaukee's Danceworks instructors provide tap and ballroom instruction twice a week for ten weeks, which lead up to a program-wide exhibition and competition at the Bradley Center. The classes work to improve the kids' attendance, academic performance, grades and behavior. They also work to teach problem solving and communication skills, and to instill the values of education and lifelong learning. Sound familiar? Sally's connection to the group started when she met and became friends with Deborah Farris, Danceworks' Executive Director. "What she's trying to do for children struck a chord with me," remarked Sally. For Sally it touched on what she believes about lifelong learning and responsibility to local community, values that were fortified by her Alverno education. This new connection with Dancewoks involved Sally's participation as a volunteer for last year's event, but for this year she has bigger dreams. She would like to see Alverno alums have a real presence at the event in May. And she's willing to put her money where her mouth is, so to speak, by heading up an Alverno volunteer team. The event in May, date to be determined, needs over 200 volunteers. The shifts for the event are either two or four hours and include jobs as varied as manning (or womaning as the case may be) the information or check-in tables, working as a green room attendant, or for the athletic, dashing around as an information runner. There are also ongoing opportunities to work with kids in the classroom. "We [Alverno] are known more outside Milwaukee for our accomplishments than we are in the city," comments Sally. She sees the Mad Hot Ballroom and Tap competition as a great opportunity for alums to contribute to the greater community and have fun. Being retired herself, she has a special call to fellow alumnae retirees: "Retired alums can have the joy of being connected to the community, because we have the energy, enthusiasm, and experience to share." Take Sally up on this call. She can be reached by e-mail at firstname.lastname@example.com. And for more information on Danceworks and the Mad Hot Ballroom and Tap event go to www.danceworksmke.org. |

| PDF - Published Version Download (447Kb) | Preview |
This paper introduces an oversampled subband approach to linearly constrained minimum variance adaptive broadband beamforming. This method is motivated by the considerable reduction in computation over fullband implementation and resulting large computational complexity when fullband beamformers with high spatial and spectral resolution are required. We present the proposed subband adaptive beamformer structure, discuss the advantages and limitations of it, and comment on the correct projection of the constraints in the subband domain. In a simulation, the proposed subband structure is compared to a fullband adaptive beamformer, highlighting the benefit of our method.

Gorleston girl Jessica-Jane Applegate is one of 10 contenders shortlisted for the BBC Young Sports Personality of the Year 2012.
Past winners of the award, announced to millions on a television show in December, include diver Tom Daley in 2007, 2009 and 2010 and footballer Wayne Rooney in 2002.
Last year's winner was golfer Lauren Taylor, who claimed the award after becoming the youngest winner of the Ladies' British Open Amateur Championship.
Jessica-Jane, 16, won gold at the Paralympics in London after setting a new Games record in the 200m Freestyle S14 final.
The nomination rounds off a special year that saw her enjoy a homecoming parade around the streets of Great Yarmouth on a road train, named Jessica-Jane in her honour, following her triumph at the games.
Last month she was the toast of the county when she was crowned Norfolk's sports star of 2012 in Active Norfolk awards held at the Forum.

So what we're left with is Danny DeVito struggling mightily to carry the picture. To his credit, he almost does it. It's a thankless role, but DeVito's caustic delivery of throwaway lines, such as "I've died and gone to Gomer Pyle's house," elicits more laughs than the material deserves. A lame plot twist is concocted to get DeVito onto the obstacle course, but the sight of the pot-bellied gnome risking his "jewels" rappelling down the face of a four-story tower is irresistible. Subtlety not being an issue here, Marshall milks scenes of a gaudily red-and- yellow-shirted DeVito schlepping about surrounded by platoons of troops dressed in olive drab for maximum fish-out-of-water effect.
At least Marshall's shots of recruits marching and doing calisthenics feel fresh and authentic. Chalk it up to the novelty of a woman director getting a close look at a formerly all-male preserve. The movie could have done with more footage like the brief mail-call scene, where a soldier casually but accurately flips letters to waiting soldiers with a flick of the wrist and a dash of body English.
Kadeem Hardison (A Different World's Dwayne Wayne), Lillo Brancato, Jr. (A Bronx Tale), and Mark Wahlberg (a.k.a. Marky Mark) lend some support as DeVito's students. None deserves major plaudits, but neither do they disgrace themselves. Hardison cracks wise throughout the film. Marshall makes no attempt to rein in Brancato's gratuitous impressions of De Niro in Raging Bull or Al Pacino in Scarface, but as obtrusive and unnecessary as Brancato's mimicry is, it is also funny. In a movie this undisciplined, anything goes.
Which brings us, of course, to Marky Mark. He plays a dumb redneck who enlisted in the army to see more of the world than his trailer park in Willacootchie, Georgia. Mark is a natural, especially at playing dumb. The cracker accent comes and goes, but he's a consistently convincing bonehead. And give him credit A he's willing to laugh at himself. His character is a wanna-be drummer who, as Hardison's character points out, has no rhythm. The skivvy model graciously hangs back while his fellow thespians ham it up during the "Hamlet Rap" number (cowritten by Wahlberg, who also performs three songs on the soundtrack). Mark sings only once, briefly, on-screen A comically mangling an a cappella rendition of "Achy Breaky Heart" while lathering himself up in the shower. Marshall's not a complete fool; she makes certain the coveted Marky Mark pecs are displayed in all their hardbody glory. It was a sound business decision A if Mark's acting didn't cut it, a quick beefcake shot couldn't hurt. After all, male directors have been asking the same of actresses since the dawn of cinema history. Fortunately Mark's acting is good enough that this requirement may not be necessary in the future. You have to pull for old Marky; after all, if Woody Harrelson can model Calvin Klein underwear in his movie, why shouldn't the toyboy rapper give Hollywood a shot? Turnabout is fair play. And they both have bright futures as dumb hicks.
In the end, however, neither Mark's muscle nor DeVito's delivery can save this waterlogged Renaissance Man from drowning in wave after wave of manipulative treacle. When the fort's commanding officer (Cliff Robertson in a power cameo) presents a medal to a DeVito student whose father died in Vietnam, the expression on Robertson's face takes a moment to decipher. Then it comes to you: It's the look of a seasoned swimmer watching helplessly from shore as a novice in over her head goes under for the third time.

text: Get a glance at these inspired wall clock "White & White" twisted by designer Vadim Kibardin from Russia. "The White & White timer designed by Vadim Kibardin is a contemporary 3D elucidation of the conventional digital clock. Not anything as well, basically time. In shady hours the light sensitive sensor changes the glow of the digits to a less intense white. " All of the digits are element of a single unit, and as the new title suggests, it switches between two shades of white.
