20081020 Charlie Rose


这个,电视上从中间看起的,很不错。抓过来再复习一遍。

    

John Doerr:美国人向中国借钱,去中东买石油,然后我们把它烧掉,我们把钱烧掉,排入大气层。(鼓掌),但是这种借,买和烧,每一步都得停止,下个十年我们必须停止这些,否则我们将来的危机会让现在这场经济危机感觉就象去公园散了一次步一样。

A conversation about leadership at the Harvard Business School centennial celebration with John Doerr - venture capitalist, Kleiner Perkins Caufield & Byers, Jeffrey Immelt - chairman and CEO, General Electric, Anand Mahindra - vice-chairman and managing director, Mahindra & Mahindra, Meg Whitman - former CEO, Ebay and James Wolfensohn - former president of the World Bank

Jennifer 8. Lee


她的中文名字叫
李竟8。刚开始在报上看到她的英文名字(Jennifer 8. Lee)中间名叫8,就觉得特好玩,后来得知她还真写一篇文章,题为“是的,8就是我的中间名”,大概是被好奇心重的人问烦了,呵呵。

以前并不知道她是华裔。后来看到她一篇写签语饼的文章,才知道她原来也是ABC,还对在美国的中国饭菜特别有研究。后来,她出了一本书,叫《签语饼的演变史》(
The Fortune Cookie Chronicles ),里面写的一些生活就是D曾经,正在或者将要经历的事情。我赶紧去买了一本,在D生日那天送给了他。

满有趣的一个女孩子,说话象打机关枪一样,还会说台湾口音的中文,罗斯节目给了她几分钟的自我介绍。她的书已经被她家报纸《纽约时报》列入畅销排行榜,替她高兴。

   


Jennifer 8. Lee , 31, is a New York Times reporter, blogger and author best known for her writing about technology, immigrants and contemporary culture. Lee's first book, The Fortune Cookie Chronicles -- which quickly climbed to the 26th slot on the Times best-seller list after its release in March -- documents her quest to understand the paradox of a food and an immigrant experience that is at once Chinese yet more all-American than apple pie. Lee graduated with a BA from Harvard in 1999.

韩裔大厨


韩裔大厨DAVID CHANG 的
这个姓,我估计应该是全,而不是MICHAEL CHANG的那个张。韩国人,还没听说有姓张的。总之,全大厨很牛很傻很可爱,看他和查理两个人边聊边笑的,时间过得很快,引几句:

--不喜欢FUSION FOOD这种说法。面条怎么啦,面条就不能算AMERICAN  FOOD 啦?我们用的所有原材料都是美国货。
--别人越说这不行那不行,我越想去试。一般我试了两三次,要不就成功,要不就停止。事不过三,我才不要做《白鲸》里面的那个船长,为了自己的骄傲和恐惧,让整条船下沉。
--“STAY FOOLISH,STAY HUMBLE。” 苹果的STEVE JOB偷走了我想说的话,哈哈。

当然,最牛的是,全大厨只有12个座位的面馆实行网上预定,严格按照先来后到的次序,无论你多有钱,多大牌,你都得去网上老老实实地排队,充分体现了美食面前人人平等的美国精神。全大厨兜售的服务也是真正的美国货,呵呵。

David Chang (born 1977) is a noted American chef. He is chef/owner of Momofuku Noodle Bar, Momofuku Ko and Momofuku Ssäm Bar in New York City.Chang attended Trinity College, where he majored in religious studies. Chang also attended the French Culinary Institute (FCI).

In 2003, Chang opened his first restaurant, Momofuku Noodle Bar in the East Village. In August 2006, Chang's second restaurant, Momofuku Ssäm Bar, opened a few blocks away. In March 2008, Chang opened Momofuku Ko, a 12 seat restaurant that takes reservations seven days in advance, online only, on a first-come-first-served basis, without regard to social status or income. The highly limited seating, along with Chang's popularity in New York, has caused a furor, generating frustration for both influential and ordinary people who have failed to secure a reservation.

Across the universe


导演Julie Taymor谈她的电影 Across the universe:

1)30多首BEETLE的歌串成的小故事,褒贬不一,不喜欢那些故事的人其实可以把它当成30几个MTV看。
2)BONO在里面轧一角,是卖点。
3)美丽的摄影和那些歌曲,值得收藏

个人生活比小说还五彩缤纷,他干吗要去写希特勒呢,写自己其实就够了:

Personal life

Mailer was married six times, and had several mistresses. He had eight biological children by his various wives, and adopted one further child. For many years, he had a house on the Cape Cod oceanfront in Provincetown, Massachusetts. Like many novelists of his generation, Mailer struggled with alcohol and drug abuse throughout his life. [4]

  • He was married first in 1944, to Beatrice Silverman, whom he divorced in 1952.
  • Mailer married his second wife, Adele Morales, in 1954. In 1960, Mailer stabbed her with a penknife at a party. While Morales made a full physical recovery, in 1997 she published a memoir of their marriage entitled The Last Party, which outlined her perception of the incident. This incident has been a focal point for feminist critics of Mailer, who point to themes of sexual violence in his work.
  • His third wife, whom he married in 1962, and divorced in 1963, was the British heiress and journalist Lady Jeanne Campbell (1929-2007), the only daughter of the 11th Duke of Argyll and a granddaughter of the press baron Lord Beaverbrook; by her, he had a daughter, Kate Mailer, who is an actress.
  • His fourth marriage, in 1963, was to Beverly Bentley, a former model turned actress. She was the mother of his producer son Michael and his actor son Stephen.
  • His fifth wife was Carol Stevens, whom he married in 1980, with whom he had a daughter Maggie Alexander, born in 1971. They separated one day after their wedding, and later divorced.
  • His sixth and last wife, married in 1980, was Norris Church (née Barbara Davis), a former model turned writer. They had one son together, John Buffalo Mailer, and Mailer informally adopted Matthew Norris, her son by her first husband, Larry Norris.

He appeared in an episode of Gilmore Girls entitled "Norman Mailer, I'm Pregnant!" with his son Stephen Mailer.

In 2005, he co-wrote a book with his youngest child, John Buffalo Mailer, titled The Big Empty. In 2007 Random House published his last novel, The Castle in the Forest.
