RoboBee powered by soft muscles
First flight of a microrobot with soft actuators
By Leah Burrows, SEAS Communications
(CAMBRIDGE, Mass.) — The sight of a RoboBee careening towards a wall or crashing into a glass box may have once triggered panic in the researchers in the Harvard Microrobotics Laboratory at the Harvard John A. Paulson School of Engineering and Applied Science (SEAS), but no more.
The Wyss Institute's and SEAS robotics team built different models of the soft actuator powered RoboBee. Shown here is a four-wing, two actuator, and an eight-wing, four-actuator RoboBee model the latter of which being the first soft actuator-powered flying microrobot that is capable of controlled hovering flight.

Researchers at SEAS and Harvard's Wyss Institute for Biologically Inspired Engineering have developed a resilient RoboBee powered by soft artificial muscles that can crash into walls, fall onto the floor, and collide with other RoboBees without being damaged. It is the first microrobot powered by soft actuators to achieve controlled flight.
"There has been a big push in the field of microrobotics to make mobile robots out of soft actuators because they are so resilient," said Yufeng Chen, Ph.D., a former graduate student and postdoctoral fellow at SEAS and first author of the paper. "However, many people in the field have been skeptical that they could be used for flying robots because the power density of those actuators simply hasn't been high enough and they are notoriously difficult to control. Our actuator has high enough power density and controllability to achieve hovering flight."
The research is published in Nature.
To solve the problem of power density, the researchers built upon the electrically-driven soft actuators developed in the lab of David Clarke, Ph.D., the Extended Tarr Family Professor of Materials at SEAS. These soft actuators are made using dielectric elastomers, soft materials with good insulating properties that deform when an electric field is applied.
By improving the electrode conductivity, the researchers were able to operate the actuator at 500 Hertz, on par with the rigid actuators used previously in similar robots.
Another challenge when dealing with soft actuators is that the system tends to buckle and become unstable. To solve this challenge, the researchers built a lightweight airframe with a piece of vertical constraining thread to prevent the actuator from buckling.
The soft actuators can be easily assembled and replaced in these small-scale robots. To demonstrate various flight capabilities, the researchers built several different models of the soft actuator-powered RoboBee. A two-wing model could take off from the ground but had no additional control. A four-wing, two-actuator model could fly in a cluttered environment, overcoming multiple collisions in a single flight.
"One advantage of small-scale, low-mass robots is their resilience to external impacts," said Elizabeth Farrell Helbling, Ph.D., a former graduate student at SEAS and a coauthor on the paper. "The soft actuator provides an additional benefit because it can absorb impact better than traditional actuation strategies. This would come in handy in potential applications such as flying through rubble for search and rescue missions."

An eight-wing, four-actuator model demonstrated controlled hovering flight, the first for a soft-actuator-powered flying microrobot.
Next, the researchers aim to increase the efficiency of the soft-powered robot, which still lags far behind more traditional flying robots.
"Soft actuators with muscle-like properties and electrical activation represent a grand challenge in robotics," says Wyss Institute Core Faculty member Robert Wood, Ph.D., who also is the Charles River Professor of Engineering and Applied Sciences in SEAS and senior author of the paper. "If we could engineer high performance artificial muscles, the sky is the limit for what robots we could build."
Harvard's Office of Technology Development has protected the intellectual property relating to this project and is exploring commercialization opportunities.
This paper was also co-authored by Huichan Zhao, Jie Mao, Pakpong Chirarattananon, Nak-seung, and Patrick Hyun. It supported in part by the National Science Foundation.

I was beyond thrilled to stumble upon Good Gravy Bakes at Smorgasburg on a recent Sunday morning. Super-talent Beth Kellerhals is baking up sky-high Southern biscuits, and they are swoon-inducing.
I've been a tremendous fan of Beth's creations ever since her days dreaming up wildly creative desserts for Chef Roy Choi's restaurants (see: Kogi, A-Frame, and Sunny Spot). This gal knows her way around flour, sugar, and butter.
All of Good Gravy Bakes' wares begin with the same classic biscuit. Tall, flaky, and tender—it's the platonic ideal.
Our first biscuit came slathered with house-made blueberry lavender jam and a dollop of basil whipped cream ($5). We initially weren't sure quite how to dive in, but quickly figured out that head first with abandon was the only way to go. Sweet and rich, yet light and satisfying, this was a breakfast the entire family could get behind.
Our second biscuit was equal parts sweet and savory: peach butter with peach jam and thin slices of salty prosciutto. The combination of flavors and textures was totally unexpected and wholly delightful.


How we started and what next?
Our core team has molecular biology background. In 2012 we both joined with Lab of Cancer Biology, in the University of Tartu, established by cancer biology professor Tambet Teesalu. He brought in phage display method, a powerful technology to find biomolecules that bind strongly and specifically to biological targets. Routinely it was used to find biomolecules that target specifically cancer tissue to reduce side efects of cancer drugs. We used the same technology to find biomolecules that bind strongly to hair.
We can build safe and mild, water-based permanent hair colours without the need of solvents, oxydative hair dyes, ammonia and peroxide. At the moment we are also developing efective multimodal hair care product that simultaniously gives volume, protects from UV, dirt and water.

Today's Reveal Answer: Escapee
Themed answers each include the letter sequence SKP (sounds like "ESCAPEE"):
39A Fugitive who, phonetically, is "hiding" in certain letters in 17-, 21-, 52- and 61-Across : ESCAPEE (sounds like "SKP")
17A Lines at the office? : DESKPHONES
21A Willing to accept danger : RISK-PRONE
52A Lowest acceptable offers, in stock market lingo : ASK PRICES
61A President between John Tyler and Zachary Taylor : JAMES K POLK
1 Nothin' : NADA
"Nada" is the Spanish word for "nothing". "De nada" translates literally from the Spanish as "of nothing", and is used to mean "you're welcome" or "don't mention it". The French have the same expression "de rien", also translating to "of nothing" and used the same way.
5 Hula ___ : HOOP
Wham-O was founded in 1948, with the company's first product being the Wham-O slingshot. Since then, Wham-O has marketed a string of hit toys including the Hula Hoop, Frisbee, Slip 'N Slide, Silly String, Hacky Sack and Boogie Board.
20 Sandwich shop : DELI
The word "delicatessen" (or "deli" for short) came into English from the German "Delikatessen". The Germans borrowed the word from French, in which language "délicatesse" means "delicious things (to eat)". The term's ultimate root is "delicatus", the Latin for "giving pleasure, delightful".
26 Tidbit from Friskies : CAT TREAT
The Friskies brand is known today as a cat food, although it was first introduced as a dry dog food in 1930.
30 Typical physique for a middle-aged guy : DAD BOD
A "dad bod" is a man's body that is softly rounded. Well, that's the description I like to use …
34 Baseball hitter's stat, for short : RBI
Run batted in (RBI)
35 Brief role in a film : CAMEO
Even in my day, a cameo role was more than just a short appearance in a movie (or other artistic piece). For the appearance to be a cameo, the actor had to play himself or herself, and was instantly recognizable. With this meaning it's easy to see the etymology of the term, as a cameo brooch is one with the recognizable carving of the silhouette of a person. Nowadays, a cameo is any minor role played by a celebrity or famous actor, regardless of the character played.
38 Core muscles, in brief : ABS
The abdominal muscles (abs) are more correctly referred to as the rectus abdominis muscles. They might be referred to as a "six-pack", or even a "ten-pack", in a person who has developed the muscles and who has low body fat. In my case, more like a keg …
41 Only four-term prez : FDR
Since the days of President George Washington, there was an informal tradition that a US President could hold office for two terms, but would not run for a third. Franklin D. Roosevelt was the only president to break with this tradition. President Roosevelt was elected to office four times, and died a few months after starting his fourth term. It was President Roosevelt's decision to ignore the term limit tradition that led to the adoption of the Twenty-Second Amendment of the Constitution, which provides that "no person shall be elected to the office of President more than twice".
44 "The Hate U Give" heroine : STARR
"The Hate U Give" is a 2018 film that is based on a 2017 novel of the same name by Angie Thomas. Both the film and novel center on the aftermath of a police officer shooting an unarmed teenager.
46 Sound system : STEREO
Monophonic sound ("mono") is sound reproduced using just one audio channel, which is usually played out of just one speaker. Stereophonic sound is reproduced using two audio channels, with the sound from each channel played out of two different speakers. The pair of stereo speakers are usually positioned apart from each other so that sound appears to come from between the two. Quadraphonic sound (4.0 surround sound) uses four audio channels with the sound played back through four speakers that are often positioned at the corners of the room in which one is listening.
50 ___ de cologne : EAU
Back in 1709, an Italian perfume-maker moved to Cologne in Germany. There he invented a new fragrance that he named Eau de Cologne after his newly adopted town. The fragrance is still produced in Cologne, using a secret formulation. However, the terms "Eau de Cologne" and "cologne", are now used generically.
58 Rice-shaped pasta : ORZO
Orzo is pasta that has been formed into granular shapes, much like barley. And indeed, "orzo" is the Italian word for "barley". Orzo is also called "risoni", meaning "large rice".
60 Orson Welles's "Citizen ___" : KANE
In the 1941 film "Citizen Kane", the newspaper magnate Charles Foster Kane builds himself an immense and opulent estate on the Florida coast called Xanadu. Xanadu boasts a Venetian-style canal, complete with gondolas, and a well-stocked zoo. There is also a championship golf course. The estate was inspired by the real-life Hearst Castle, a California mansion owned by William Randolph Hearst.
Orson Welles is perhaps best-remembered in the world of film for his role in 1941's "Citizen Kane". In the world of radio, Welles is known for directing and narrating 1938's famous broadcast of "The War of the Worlds", a broadcast that convinced many listeners that the Earth was indeed being invaded by aliens.
61 President between John Tyler and Zachary Taylor : JAMES K POLK
James Knox Polk was the 11th US President. Polk is known as a president who delivered on promises that he made during his election campaign. He left office after serving only one term, as he had promised the voters, and then contracted cholera on a goodwill tour of the South. Polk died at only 53 years of age, the youngest age for any president to die in retirement. He also enjoyed the shortest retirement of any president, at only 103 days.
John Tyler was the tenth President of the US, and the first to take the office on the death of the incumbent. Tyler's predecessor was President William Henry Harrison, who was in office only 32 days before he died of natural causes. For a while there was a little confusion about the wording in the constitution that covered such an eventuality. There was an argument made that Tyler would continue as Vice-President but would assume the responsibilities of the office of President, in effect as "Acting President". However, Tyler proceeded as though he was taking over as President and took the oath of office in his hotel room in Washington. Soon afterwards, Congress declared that Tyler was indeed President, although many continued to dispute the fact. Many of President Tyler's opponents referred to him as "His Accidency". His term in office ended in 1845. When the Civil War began in 1861, Tyler sided with the Confederacy and was even elected to the Confederate House of Representatives for the 3rd District of Virginia. President Tyler passed away only a few days after taking his seat in the House. His death was the only one in presidential history that was not recognized in the nation's capital, as he sided with the Confederate States.
Zachary Taylor won the 1848 election to become the 12th US president, and the first president to hold office without a political resume. Taylor was a career military man, known as "Old Rough and Ready" Taylor. He died only 16 months into his term, apparently of gastroenteritis. Given that rumors of poisoning persisted over the decades, his body was exhumed in 1991 and tissue samples were checked for signs of foul play. Nothing out of order was discovered, although rumours still persist.
64 Furniture retailer founded in Sweden : IKEA
The IKEA furniture chain was founded by Ingvar Kamprad in 1943, when he was just 17-years-old. IKEA is an acronym standing for Ingvar Kamprad Elmtaryd Agunnaryd (don't forget now!). Elmtaryd was the name of the farm where Ingvar Kamprad grew up, and Agunnaryd is his home parish in Sweden.
65 Disney's "Little Mermaid" : ARIEL
In the 1989 Disney animated film "The Little Mermaid", the title character is given the name "Ariel". In the original fairy tale by Hans Christian Andersen that dates back to 1836, the Little Mermaid is given no name at all. There is a famous statue of the unnamed Little Mermaid sitting in Copenhagen Harbor, in Andersen's homeland of Denmark.
66 Actress Swenson of "Benson" : INGA
Inga Swenson is an American actress. Her best known role was "Gretchen Kraus", the German cook, and later housekeeper, on the TV show "Benson". Swenson also appeared in a couple of episodes of "Bonanza" playing the second wife of Ben Cartwright (Lorne Greene), and mother of Hoss Cartwright (Dan Blocker). This was despite the fact that in real life, she was actually 4 years younger than Blocker!
The sitcom "Benson" originally aired from 1979 until 1986 and starred Robert Guillaume in the title role. The character Benson DuBois was introduced to the world as the butler to the ultrarich Tate family in the comedy series "Soap".
67 Small salamander : NEWT
Salamanders are lizard-like amphibians found all across the northern hemisphere. They are the only vertebrate animals that can regenerate lost limbs.
68 Handicrafts e-tailer : ETSY
Etsy.com is an e-commerce website where you can buy and sell the kind of items that you might find at a craft fair.
3 Clichéd place to be marooned : DESERT ISLE
"Cliché" is a word that comes from the world of printing. In the days when type was added as individual letters into a printing plate, for efficiency some oft-used phrases and words were created as one single slug of metal. The word "cliché" was used for such a grouping of letters. It's easy to see how the same word would become a term to describe any overused phrase. Supposedly, "cliché" comes from French, from the verb "clicher" meaning "to click". The idea is that when a matrix of letters was dropped in molten metal to make a cliché, it made a clicking sound.
7 Hyatt alternative : OMNI
Omni Hotels & Resorts is headquartered in Irvine, California and has properties in the US, Canada and Mexico.
9 Fettuccine sauce : ALFREDO
Alfredo sauce is usually associated with the Italian dish called fettuccine Alfredo. The sauce is made from Parmesan cheese and butter, and is named for the Italian restaurant owner Alfredo Di Lelio. Di Lelio's nephews still own and run a restaurant in Rome called "Il Vero Alfredo". Here in the US, we often add other ingredients to the basic cheese and butter recipe. The name "fettuccine Alfredo" won't be found on a menu in Italy today, and instead one can order "fettuccine al burro".
10 Angel's wear : HALO
The Greek word "halos" is the name given to the ring of light around the sun or moon, which gives us our word "halo" that is used for a radiant light depicted above the head of a saintly person.
28 Some chain theaters : AMCS
The AMC theater chain used to go by the name American Multi-Cinema Inc., hence the initialism "AMC".
33 Annual Louisville event : DERBY
The first Kentucky Derby took place in 1875, and is a race modeled on the Epsom Derby in England and the Grand Prix de Paris (now called the "Prix de l'Arc de Triomphe"). As such, the Kentucky Derby was run over 1½ miles, although in 1896 this was shortened to 1¼ miles. The winning horse is presented with a very elaborate blanket made of red roses, and so the Derby is nicknamed "Run for the Roses". The race is held on the first Saturday in May each year, and is limited to 3-year-old horses.
36 Gem with a play of colors : OPAL
An opal is often described as having a milky iridescence known as opalescence.
40 Love god : EROS
The name of Eros, the Greek god of love, gives rise to our word "erotic" meaning "arousing sexual desire". Eros was referred to in Latin as both "Amor" (meaning "love") and "Cupid" (meaning "desire").
47 Kind of board with letters printed on it : OUIJA
The Ouija board was introduced to America as a harmless parlor game at the end of the 19th century, although variations of the board date back to 1100 AD in China, where it was apparently used to "contact" the spirit world. The name "Ouija" is relatively recent, and is probably just a combination of the French and German words for "yes" … "oui" and "ja".
53 Japanese beverage often served hot : SAKE
We refer to the Japanese alcoholic beverage made from rice as "sake". We've gotten things a bit mixed up in the West. "Sake" is actually the word that the Japanese use for all alcoholic drinks. What we know as sake, we sometimes refer to as rice wine. Also, the starch in the rice is first converted to sugars that are then fermented into alcohol. This is more akin to a beer-brewing process than wine production, so the end product is really a rice "beer" rather than a rice "wine".
59 Gymnast Korbut : OLGA
Olga Korbut is from modern-day Belarus, but was born during the days of the Soviet Union. Korbut competed for the USSR team in the 1972 and 1976 Olympic Games. She was 17 when she appeared in the 1972 Munich Games, and had been training in a sports school since she was 8-years-old. The world fell in love with her as she was a very emotional young lady, readily expressing joy and disappointment, something that we weren't used to seeing in athletes from behind the Iron Curtain. Korbut immigrated to the US in 1991 and now lives in Scottsdale, Arizona.
63 Krazy ___ (comics character) : KAT
"Krazy Kat" is a successful comic strip that ran from 1913-1944 and was drawn by George Herriman.

Author Irene Little to Appear on TV Show, 'Good Morning Texas' Irene Little, The Book on Addiction
NORTH DALLAS, TEXAS (May 14, 2019) – Dr. Irene Little, author of The Book on Addiction, will appear on WFAA morning show, Good Morning Texas, Wednesday, May 22, 2019.
Dr. Irene Little has established her expertise in the field of addiction through more than 20 years working with both adolescents and adults. Dr. Little, who recently published The Book on Addiction, is on a mission to combat the pandemic of drug abuse flooding our country. In the Book on Addiction, Irene discusses how to instill and sustain harmony in the home and has already been released for sale on Amazon.com and bookonaddiction.com.
According to Dr. Little, author and founder of Access Counseling Group: "The book is a parent's guide to restoring structure and sanity to their home. Parents will learn about addiction and how a person's behavior tells you what you need to know and what you need to do to improve boundaries and expectations. Parents of children with addiction often experience confusion, despair and frustration with how to help their child. Parenting a child, whether an adolescent or young adult, can be challenging but parenting a child with addiction can be perplexing and downright overwhelming. What worked for other children in family does not seem to work for this one. There is a reason for that. Parenting differently is required for children who are wired differently. This book will help you understand the differences in thinking, feeling and responding to limits and boundaries. Simply, it is an instruction on how to reclaim sanity and serenity in your home."
Dr. Little and her team are actively exploring partnerships and opportunities to disseminate The Book on Addiction in an effort to help as many families as possible who are struggling with and battling with addiction. For more information on Dr. Little, The Book on Addiction and/or Access Counseling Group, please contact Amanda Hall, PR Agent.

Medasin - Musical Artist and Producer
"Four years ago, chill-beat boss Medasin was anything but laid back and in control. He was struggling with his mental health, addicted to drugs, running with an aimless crowd, digging a hole and throwing his ambitions into the hazy abyss. His parents, his teachers, and his well-intentioned friends couldn't tell him anything he'd bother to hear.
Only Irene had the magic words that could make his musical soul stop and listen. Irene was his intensive outpatient program counselor at Access Counseling Group, her rehab facility in Plano, Texas. For some reason, Irene was able to convince the would-be producer that his life was worth more than escapism. Irene helped him see a future, one where he could focus his energies into his creative passions and make something beautiful. Today, he shares a 9-track album, a soothingly subtle exploration of feelings bigger than words allow. It's beautiful, and it's dedicated to her, Irene."

Heavy rain canceled the majority of on-track action Friday at Richmond International Raceway.
NASCAR Sprint Cup Series cars were in the midst of circling the 0.75-mile track for the opening practice when the skies opened up. The session ran for most of the alotted time, with Kevin Harvick topping the leaderboard at 129.069 mph with just more than 20 minutes remaining.
Sprint Cup Coors Light Pole Qualifying was scheduled to begin at 4:15 p.m. ET, but NASCAR announced shortly after 3:30 p.m. ET that it was canceled. By virtue of notching the best speed in the rain-shortened opening Cup practice, Harvick will start on the pole for Sunday's Toyota Owners 400 (1 p.m. ET, FOX).
Cup cars will have another shot at putting laps down on the short track Saturday at 10:30 a.m. ET (FS1).
Opening NASCAR XFINITY Series practice, scheduled from 12:30 p.m. to 1:55 p.m. ET, was canceled due to the wet weather. A second XFINITY practice was scheduled from 3-3:55 p.m. ET, but was also unable to be run.
XFINITY practice has been rescheduled for 9 a.m. Saturday. The lineup for each Dash 4 Cash heat was set per the rule book, which is owner points. Results from the heat races will set the lineup for the main.
There is a 40% chance of rain tomorrow.

    url <- a("Google Homepage", href="https://www.google.com/")
    output$tab <- renderUI({
      tagList("Access the page:", url)
    })
  })
)

How is it when executing shiny:

How I would like it to be:

A: Alternatively to Pork Chop's solution, you can insert a div element with a negative margin-top between the two elements you want to be closer:
ui = fluidPage(
  fileInput("data", h3("Excel database import")),
  div(style = "margin-top: -30px"),
  uiOutput("tab")
)

A: You can apply some style to it and adjust it using margin-top:
library(shiny)
runApp(
    list(ui = fluidPage(
        tags$head(tags$style(' #tab {margin-top:-30px;}')),
        fileInput("data", h3("Excel database import")), uiOutput("tab"),

Do you backpack or hike often? What about camping? We used to camp a ton when I was little and I was always the first one booted from the campers into a tent. The tradition of camping has been such a memorable one that now having children of my own I want them to enjoy the same great experiences I had as well as form those great memories and traditions for our own family. That being said we get our family outdoors as much as we can find the time (and the money).
Even though my life revolves around technology, I think we all need to be put back in our places a bit and learn how to take care of ourselves, each other, and the planet WITHOUT it. I also truly believe we need to start teaching our children how to survive without all the luxuries they have become accustom to - you just never know what could happen in the future.
In saying this, I recently discovered a pretty cool gadget which is there to help you prepare for the outdoors, being without power, and traveling light. The ITechor Camping Stove Cookware is absolutely perfect for the outdoor traveler. Made of aluminum alloy and stainless steel, the camp stove is durable and burns extremely clean. The high-energy ceramic piezoelectric ignition system helps light without frustration and of course in situations where you might be without matches.
This tiny stove collapses and folds into an even more compact design for easy transport and storage. It easily fits into a backpack and for our family of five, it is small enough to add to our bags without taking up much room for an efficient camping trip. The silicone tube cover protects from burns when it needs to be moved or packed up in a hurry. We will be taking this camping with us this Spring but for now it is being stored in our emergency kit for those "just in case" scenarios.

Home / Professor named 2019 Outstanding Researcher at School of Science and Engineering
Professor named 2019 Outstanding Researcher at School of Science and Engineering
Benjamin Morris today@tulane.edu
During spring award season, each new year is an opportunity to celebrate the year's progress and achievements. On April 4, the Tulane School of Science and Engineering (SSE) honored 2019's outstanding alumni; on April 11, SSE continued the season by honoring mathematics Professor Mac Hyman with the 2019 Outstanding Researcher Award.
This award, now in its 13th year, honors faculty who have made exceptional contributions both to their individual field of study through publications and funding recruitment, as well as to the mission of the university by teaching and mentoring students. Other criteria, such as professional honors, editorial distinctions, scientific board memberships, and patents are also considered.
Hyman, currently the Evelyn and John G. Phillips Distinguished Chair of Mathematics at Tulane, earned his BS in mathematics and physics from Tulane in 1972, later completing his PhD in math and computer science at New York University. With 10 edited books and over 250 research publications to his name, Hyman is an expert on mathematical modeling and its relationship to physical and biological systems.
"Mac [Hyman] ... embodies what SSE at Tulane is best at: crossing schools and disciplines in order to tackle problems facing global society today."
Dean Kimberly Foster
Brian Mitchell, interim associate dean, introduced Hyman.
"Mac joins a list of very distinguished awardees," he said, remarking later, "Tulane is fortunate to have gifted scholars like Mac that work across disciplinary boundaries, tackling some of the grand challenges facing our communities."
Much of Hyman's research explores how mathematical equations and models can help us understand, anticipate, and respond to the spread of disease. Fittingly, as part of the awards ceremony, Hyman delivered a lecture entitled "Don't underestimate the impact that mathematics can have saving lives," an illuminating, cross-disciplinary discussion of his work.
Dean Kimberly Foster presented Hyman with the award.
"Mac is a standout researcher," she said, "and embodies what SSE at Tulane is best at: crossing schools and disciplines in order to tackle problems facing global society today."

Hammer Museum Welcomes New Board Members
The Hammer Museum at the University of California, Los Angeles, has added Larry Jackson, a music industry executive who currently serves as global creative director at Apple Music, to its board of directors, the museum's governing body. The addition of Jackson brings the number of board members to twenty-two.
Collector and philanthropist Carla Emil, the founder of C Project—a nonprofit that strives to bring performance-based art experiences to San Francisco—and Joel Lubin, the cohead of the Motion Picture Group at Creative Artists Agency, have joined the institution's board of overseers, which offers guidance on the development of the museum's programs and collection.
"The past few years have brought exciting developments to the Hammer, and this momentum is reflected in the appointment of Larry, Carla, and Joel to our boards," said Marcy Carsey, chair of the board of directors. "We admire and heartily welcome their expertise and creative energy." Museum director Ann Philbin added: "Larry, Carla, and Joel are forward-thinking leaders in their respective worlds of music, art, and entertainment, and I'm thrilled that their ideas and talent will be helping to shape the Hammer's future."

Think differently. In order to improve, you must be willing to change. Progress won't come by turning to the past. Develop new ideas and be innovative. Success often comes through change.
Focus on relationships. It is important to remember that you are selling your ideas. In order to do this successfully, you must have good relationships with others. People around you must 1- know you, 2- like you and 3- trust you.
Learn to work smarter instead of harder. At times, changing how you work may become necessary. It is possible to accomplish the same amount of work in less time when staying focused. Being focused on your goals will create a habit of working smarter.
Communicate, listen, and persist. Others will see and observe your communication skills. Their judgment will determine if they want to work with you. It is important to become an excellent communicator, a better listener, and develop persistence. Success starts with you.
Focus on success. Remember to be positive. Positive thinking often precedes success. You can accomplish your greatest desires if you focus on success.
If you desire success, look for opportunities where you can apply innovation in your life. In the ever-changing world that we live in, individuals make choices to either adapt or stay stagnant. True leaders understand and make the changes necessary to become successful.


Salvador Dalí's body remains the same as it did 28 years ago, when he was buried after his death. "His mustache remains intact, marking 10 and 10, as he wished. It is a miracle". These are the words that have spoken with emotion Narcís Bardalet, the person responsible for embalming the famous painter almost three decades ago and that this morning has attended the exhumation of the corpse.
This embalmer was convinced that "there would be Dalí for a long time", and today he has proved it. "The mustache persists, and it is for centuries," he has condemned.
The forensic team that took part in the exhumation works of the artist Salvador Dalí on Thursday night extracted some hair, nails and two long bones. Samples that, once carried out the genetic tests by a demand of paternity, will be restored to preserve the "integrity" of the body of the deceased.
The secretary of the Gala-Salvador Dalí Foundation, Lluís Peñuelas, explained at a press conference at 08:00 am this Friday to give details of the operation carried out between 20:00 hours this Thursday and Almost 01:00 am this Friday to extract biological samples in the litigation opened by Pilar Abel.
The foundation has considered the exhumation of the mortal remains of the Ampurdian genius to be "totally improper", and has stressed that the judicial decision is not motivated and has no foundation.
Peñuelas explained that the situation "has been uncomfortable" and that it has "grieved much". He added that the works of extraction of samples have been able to carry out "without any remarkable incident" and has guaranteed that the exhumation has been able to carry out "preserving as far as possible the intimacy of the teacher".
The group of technicians who have carried out the work was formed by three forensics and one assistant, and three people of the funeral service. Also present at the time of exhumation were members of the judicial delegation, as well as representatives of the Generalitat and the State.
Between 22:20 and 23:40 is when the most delicate work has been done. That is when the zinc lid that sealed the coffin has been removed and the biological samples taken. The Foundation has already requested that the samples removed – by nail, nails and two long bones – be returned once analyzed so that it can "rebuild the whole body again".
It is in this sense that Narcís Bardalet has said that, surely, "Dalí will be the only people to be buried three times: one when he died, another tonight after the exhumation, and a third when they return the samples." Indeed, Lluís Peñuelas explained that once the biological remains to be analyzed are returned to Figueres, the painter's tomb will be reopened, "in a private act", to rebuild the corpse.

Woman's sexuality encompasses sexual identity, sexual function, and sexual relationship. It is modulated throughout life by life and reproduction-related events, health, relationships, and socio-cultural variables. The ageing process and menopause are two potent contributors of female sexual dysfunction.
The lecture focuses on premature menopause as an amplified paradigm of the complex impact menopause can have on women's and couple's sexuality, with a prolonged perspective on postmenopausal years.

Review: Sufjan Stevens Delivers An Emotional Tour De Force With 'Carrie & Lowell'
Posted by brent80 on 7 Apr 2015 5 Apr 2015
Sufjan Stevens • Carrie & Lowell • Asthmatic Kitty • US Release Date: March 31, 2015
Tackling grief and its effects personally is a tough task. Many artists aren't brave enough to share something so personal and life altering in their music. That is not the case for indie singer/songwriter Sufjan Stevens, who delivers a truly chilling album about his mother's death, his relationship with her, and his relationship with his stepfather, Lowell. Carrie & Lowell instantly recollects Lost In The Trees' 2012 album A Church That Fits Our Needs – where front man Ari Picker's late mother was the centerpiece of the effort. Similarly, Sufjan Steven allows the listener into his raw emotions, making for a truly superb, moving listening experience.
From the start of Carrie & Lowell, it is obvious that Stevens has returned to more folk-oriented music. "Death With Dignity" is best characterized by its subtlety and restraint, something that couldn't be said of the lushly orchestrated Age Of Adz from 2010. Despite being less elaborately arranged, "Death With Dignity" has a similar effect to that bombastic effort thanks to the weight of its songwriting. The most chilling, notable lyric of "Death With Dignity" appears near the end as Stevens sings, "I forgive you, mother, I can hear you / and I long to be near you."
"Should Have Known Better" generally keeps the dynamics on the softer side of Carrie & Lowell with Stevens continue to embrace restraint, speaking upon his past, specifically his mother's exit from his life both as a child and in death. The last part of the track does break from the expected with dashes of electronic music added, increased rhythm, and a bump in volume.
"All Of Me Wants All Of You" maintains consistency and delivers one truly head-turning lyric, particularly given the fact it is Sufjan Stevens: "You checked your texts while I masturbated." Ultimately, it's another emotional reaction from Stevens in regard to the relationship/lack thereof he's had with his mother – one filled with strain, distance, and lack of closeness.
"For my prayer has always been love," Stevens sings on "Drawn To The Blood," finishing the line singing, "What did I do to deserve this?" Much like the majority of indie music or the work singer/songwriters, "Drawn To The Blood" is chocked full of a number references that suggest the Biblical, sinful and imperfect, and part of Stevens' personal life. To be such a brief song, "Drawn To The Blood" packs a mighty punch.
"Eugene" adds another piece to Carrie & Lowell – Lowell, his stepfather. He speaks kindly of Lowell, evidenced by lyrics such as "The man who taught me to swim, he couldn't quite say my first name / like a father he led community water on my head." Still, he returns back to his mother as he sings "I just want to be near you," and "Now I'm drunk and afraid, wishing the world would go away," referencing his delicate emotional state given his childhood and Carrie's death.
A couple of clever references standout in "Fourth Of July" – the idea of fire with "Tillamook burn" and "the Fourth of July" as well as the morbid truth, "We're all gonna die." Maybe most unique about "Fourth Of July" is how Sufjan and his mother seem to be calling each others sweet, endearing names, hence showing a deeper bond that hadn't come full circle on Carrie & Lowell.
"The Only Thing" is among the most unsettling listens of the effort, given Stevens' heightened depressed state. There is a suicidal element, as the grief of loss has truly overwhelmed him. "Do I care if I survive this?" he asks at one point, suggesting he can atone for his grief through his own death (or near-death).
Title track "Carrie & Lowell" continues to paint dark imagery, referencing Greek mythology (Erabus), Henry Purcell's Baroque Opera Dido and Aeneas ("When I Am Laid In The Earth"), and specific references to Eugene, Oregon including covered bridges. The portion of the song referencing the covered bridge is particularly chilling, definitely suggesting death or minimally enigma: "Under the pear tree / shadows and light conspiring / covered bridge, I scream…" "Carrie & Lowell" is among the best if for no other reason than Stevens' poetic, mysterious, and at times confounding songwriting.
The heaviest line of the somber "John My Beloved" recurs through the record: "There's only a shadow of me; in a manner of speaking I'm dead." The heaviness continues on p standout penultimate record "No Shade In The Shadow Of The Cross," among the most autobiographical. "I slept on my back in the shade of the meadowlark / like a champion," he sings, "Get drunk to get laid / I take one more hit when you depart." In other words, Stevens' mother's death has caused him to become rebellious, question his Christianity, and overall morality. This may be most apparent as Stevens sings, "There's blood on that blade / fuck me, I'm falling apart."
"Blue Bucket Of Gold" concludes Carrie & Lowell, and expectedly, it continues references to Biblical things. Notably, "Raise your right hand" has a great amount of symbolism, while "Lord, touch me with lightening" seems to suggest possible reaffirmation of his faith despite trials and tribulation. It is arguable Stevens suggests something else, but given the verse from which it hails ("Search for things to extol / friend, the fables delight me…"), it seems that Stevens is trying to rebound from shallower things like his rebelliousness and his affinity for mythology as opposed to embracing 'real life.'
Ultimately, Sufjan Stevens has constructed a beautiful album that expresses how he coped with grief in his life. The openness and honesty presented on Carrie & Lowell gives it an authenticity that so many albums lack. After listening, the listener gains a detailed portrait of Stevens' emotional state but more importantly, how someone deals and expresses sadness and overwhelming grief. Carrie & Lowell easily ranks among the best of albums of 2015.
