responded by donating money in a gesture that is at once benevolent and

发帖数: 70028 | 14 有人说，“One Take（一次过）”现场专辑这种音乐形式，中国只有蔡琴、林志炫这样的老将敢玩。所以当27岁的张靓颖推出制作成本超过三百万元的现场专辑《倾听张靓颖》时，行内行外大吃一惊。在接受羊城晚报记者专访时，张靓颖表示，这张试水之作只是一场充满了新鲜感的“考试”。
【身份：歌手】
“真正好歌很少被当作神曲”
尝试“One Take”这种音乐形式，新生代歌手中张靓颖还是第一人。“我很喜欢挑战，原地踏步让我没有成就感，我需要给自己新鲜感和动力，其实任何事情都一样，爱情也需要新鲜感才会有提升。”张靓颖坦言，专辑的录制是对自己现场能力的一次“考试”。至于能给自己打多少分，她自信地说：“可以说这一次没有留下遗憾。虽然我的表现比预想差一点，但录音无可挑剔。”
与上一张主打性感舞曲的《改变》专辑不同，《倾听张靓颖》主打复古和回归音乐本身、追求音乐质感的概念，这一点与今年的格莱美霸主阿黛尔（阿呆）有点不谋而合。谈到阿呆，张靓颖颇为欣赏：“她的外形不是很亮丽，但她的创作和声音展现了内心的美，让人很感动。现在很多大牌歌手都是包装型的，但好的音乐本质才是真的强大。”

01. 家政女王斯图尔特在做股票经纪人
在其名字在全美家喻户晓之前，玛莎·斯图尔特(Martha Stewart)在华尔街做了五年的股票经纪人。在此之前，她还做过模特，客户包括联合利华、香奈儿等知名品牌。“当时华尔街很少女性职员……”斯图尔特接受PBS纪录片系列《MAKERS》的采访时说，“我从来不认为自己会不胜任自己的工作，我想做股票经纪人的经历让我想到了很多。”1972年，斯图尔特离开华尔街做全职母亲。一年后，她成立了一家家庭餐厅公司。

我在中国敬酒的痛苦经历/Toast in China
大概每隔一年，我和家人都会回中国过暑假。每次回国，我们都很开心。我们去不同的地方玩儿，我学了很多新东西。我们既参观了中国的著名景点，也到一些鲜为人知的小地方去旅游。所有的这些旅游经历都让我感到很快乐。
总的来说，中国人比美国人讲究正式的礼仪。具体来说，去中国的餐馆或亲戚家赴宴，比在美国要紧张多了。我，身为中国人的后裔，会比很多人更容易适应中国习俗；但作为一个外籍人，要想完全理解中国文化和礼仪几乎是不可能的。2011年我和家人回国时，我有过一次失败的敬酒经历。这次回国，我依然担心在某个正式的晚宴上，我还得向宾主们敬酒。因为我的中文口语并不能应用自如，敬酒时我总是惊惶失措，不知说什么才好。
这次我们回国六星期，假期已过了四分之三时，我很幸运一直没有人让我敬酒。可在中国逗留的最后几周内，难以避免的敬酒事件终于又来了。有一天... 阅读全帖 |

1775年法国大众新闻业的“投石党运动”
于艳茹
摘要
传统新闻史认为，旧制度时期的法国新闻业处于严格的书报审查制度之下，因此在1789
年革命前没有发起过对旧制度的攻击。然而，新研究表明，1775年，法国大众新闻业曾
经在政治上突然变得激进化。这一现象与一批涌入新闻业的受挫剧作家有关，更与当时
新君即位、莫普改革失败和高等法院被恢复等政治事件密切相关。但是，激进的新闻业
不久便遭到官方镇压，重新被纳入王权书报审查制度控制之下。到了1779年，一切归于
沉寂。然而，这次昙花一现的新闻自由还是对岌岌可危的旧制度造成了沉重打击。

The Decline and Fall of the American Empire
By Alfred W. McCoy
December 11, 2010 "The Nation" - - A soft landing for America 40 years from
now? Don’t bet on it. The demise of the United States as the global
superpower could come far more quickly than anyone imagines. If Washington

发帖数: 1749 | 40 共产党开大会的时候都要唱国际歌，蛮雄壮的，但是为什么中文国际歌只采用了原版国
际歌的第一、二、六段呢？因为第三、四、五段是这样唱的
第三段
压迫的国家、空洞的法律，
苛捐杂税榨穷苦；
富人无务独逍遥。
穷人的权利只是空话，
受够了护佑下的沉沦。
平等需要新的法律，
没有无义务的权利，
平等！也没有无权利的义务！
（重复副歌）
第四段
矿井和铁路的帝王，
在神坛上奇丑无比。
他们除了劳动，
还抢夺过什么呢？
在他们的保险箱里，
劳动的创造一无所有！
从剥削者的手里，
他们只是讨回血债。
（重复副歌）
第五段
国王用烟雾来迷惑我们，
我们要联合向暴君开战。
让战士们在军队里罢工，
停止镇压，离开暴力机器。
如果他们坚持护卫敌人，
让我们英勇牺牲；
他们将会知道我们的子弹，
会射向我们自己的将军。
（重复副歌）

threats against President Bush.
Meanwhile, a Pennsylvania man says he'll fight disorderly conduct charges
stemming from his arrest during Bush's visit to that state last week.
In the South Dakota case, Richard Humphreys, of Portland, Ore., was arrest... 阅读全帖 |

Generations pay off debts through slavery
Uttar Pradesh, India - An army of workers, their faces encrusted with
dust, toils beside a story-high pile of unfired bricks. They are helping
build a new India that appears to be leaving them behind.
From sunup to sundown they spend their time pouring wet mud into molds,
lugging them to the kiln, fir... 阅读全帖 |

The NHK is saying that the chance of getting aftershocks bigger than M7.0 is

Supermarkets and kombinis in central Sendai are emptied out today, but I

I'm just going out to help out people in Higashi Nibancho school in central
