Gorillaz “El Mañana” Dir. Jamie Hewlett and Pete Candeland Gorillaz are without a doubt my favorite virtual band comprised of animated apes, so it’s nice to see an interesting and dramatic video for the five thousandth (okay, fourth) single from “Demon Days.” It’s also nice to see that Gorillaz are all about teaching important life lessons: although it may seem cool to live in a windmill on an island floating through the clouds, the lifestyle has its drawbacks...
...help. While November's unrest and arson attacks affected many suburbs around Paris, the town of Issy-les-Moulineaux to the south of the French capital was largely spared. There, Mayor Andr? Santini has bet heavily on technology infrastructure in a successful bid to attract international firms such as Hewlett-Packard and Cisco Systems. He's also used technology to interact more openly with Issy's 63,000 residents. Issy was the first French town to start an Internet-based local TV service, and last December it held an online election for councilors for Issy's four districts. Candidates campaigned...
...Crimson’s only second-teamer named yesterday. Harvard’s honorable mentions went to senior wide receiver Ryan Tyler, senior tight end Kelly Widman, and junior linebacker Ryan Tully, along with three sophomores: quarterback Liam O’Hagan, defensive end Brad Bagdis, and safety Doug Hewlett.

Six other Brown players were named to the first team. Yale tailback Mike McLeod was named Rookie...
Another fact unknown to most corporations: minority women feel a powerful need to give back to their community, says Hewlett. That leads so many of them--fully one-third of survey respondents--to take on social-outreach activities. The more hours they put in on the job, the more time they devote to volunteerism. Many take on leadership roles in their volunteer work, learning and honing skills that translate directly back to their jobs. But they downplay or even hide their volunteerism, sensing tacit disapproval from bosses. "It's not the opera or a charity, which the corporate world recognizes...
...prejudice about behavior and appearance. According to the study, 42% of minority women executives at large companies feel they're expected to look, sound and act like white men; 34% of minority men and 29% of white women feel that way. The study calls that pressure "style compliance"; to Hewlett, it's "bleached-out professionalism." African-American women struggle most with perceptions of their behavior; 30% feel they are seen as "troublemakers." Jennifer Braxton, 31, held a communications job at a prestigious Philadelphia think tank. But her exuberant manner at meetings took her white male bosses aback. Other minorities...
