Drama, Romance
The life of tragic jazz great Bix Beiderbecke is given the a clef treatment in Warner Bros. Young Man With a Horn. Kirk Douglas plays the Beiderbecke character, here named Rick Martin. An ace trumpter player, Martin is one of the few white musicians to flourish in the black-dominated jazz scene of the 1920s. Chafing against the dullness of the respectable orchestras for whom he works, Martin finds at least two kindred spirits in the forms of torch singer Jo Jordan (Doris Day) and piano player Smoke Willoughby (Hoagy Carmichael). He rises to popularity with his own group, and along the way falls under the spell of wealthy jazz patroness Lauren Bacall. After marrying Bacall, Martin begins neglecting his music and turns more and more to alcohol. When he skips one of her fancy parties to attend the funeral of his mentor Juano Hernandez, Bacall angrily smashes all his jazz records, effectively ending what was never a very solid relationship. Crawling into a bottle, Martin loses his touch with the trumpet-a heartbreaking sequence, in which he goes to pieces in the middle of the pop standard With a Song in My Heart. Unlike the real Beiderbecke, who died of alcoholism at the age of 28, Rick Martin is rescued by his faithful friends Day and Carmichael. Kirk Douglas' trumpeteering in Young Man with a Horn was effectively dubbed by Harry James, while jazz pianists Buddy Cole and Jimmy Zito make uncredited soundtrack contributions. The film was adapted by Carl Foreman and Edmund H. North from a novel by Dorothy Baker.~ Hal Erickson, All Movie Guide

Dwight Howard has come to LA with high expectations of winning a ring that he's never won. Same goes for Steve Nash and both are respected as high value players who could (at least Nash) will end up in the hall of fame.
So to say no one will ever go through what the heat went through is bogus. I don't buy that assessment/argument one bit.

Awesome! Hopefully the majority of us are right and Balt wins in, but I have a feeling this is going to be like one of those WWE prediction contest in which the mass opinion of what is going to happen, doesn't.
Anyone wanna call the score?
I'm saying 28-24 for the Ravens.

Light feast #3
Birch table lamp
Adam picked up the Basisk table lamp recently and incorporated it into a nice piece of birch he found. I love it!
He says, "All I did was saw the birch level with a miter saw, drill a 12mm hole through the middle and inserted the light fixture. I also sanded the top and added felt to the bottom."
See more of his birch lamp on flickr.
Light up with music
Maxd spotted a discarded Ikea Tertial when he helped his sister move. He salvaged it and added a set of speakers to it. Adds a whole new meaning to Light and Sound.
See his Tertial speaker lamp instructions or Maxd's other hack, a bedpost alarm clock and lamp.
Handsfree music stand with light
Laura rehacked a version of the handsfree music stand (made from an Ikea desk lamp). This version adds a lamp onto the stand for instant lighting. She says, "I actually used two Ikea lamps in the process. I disassembled one lamp from its arm. Then, I took the metal clip base off of another metal lamp (can't find it on the site anymore), and screwed the loop at the bottom into the metal arm. Then I screwed a clipboard into the side of the arm."
Skimra light show
Erin, aka Lilybee, who did the gorgeous Bug Table a while ago is back again with a simple light hack. "It's a lamp I've made using the Grundtal lamp base and Skimra Shade," she says, "it has cut outs that cast light onto the wall and ceiling, in a sort of (not terribly exciting) light show. Weirdly enough it also features bugs."
See her step by step instructions here.
Suspended aquarium lighting
Marc while shopping at Ikea came across these rails in the clearance section and decide that they were perfect for suspending some lighting over his aquarium.
Marc says, "I think they were intended as drawer pulls or maybe refrigerator handles. They were only .49, and using a hacksaw, I was in business.
They were too long for what I needed, so I cut off about 3″ from one end. Then I drilled holes in the Sheetrock so that I could pass these through. On the backside, I placed a board with holes drilled just the right size so they would be fit snugly. They are almost impossible to move, which was my goal. The board was screwed to the Sheetrock with Sheetrock screws. The light fixture isn't heavy, so I knew the rails could handle this task, and the board plus Sheetrock on both sides of the wall would keep it from drooping over time.
The hardest part was feeding the steel cabling through the holes in the handles, originally intended for threaded screws. It was pushed in one hole, passed through the rail into the closet area, then back into the other rail and out the other hole. Using fishing line and a tiny bit of electrical tape, a friend and I were able to fish it through after two attempts. Then the light fixture was secured to that cabling. Now I can not only adjust the height by shortening the length of wire, but I can keep the light level since it is on a single loop of wire.
A Cellula chandelier look-a-like
I've also added Christie's version of the DWR Cellula Chandelier to a similar lighting hack. Scroll down that post to view her instructions.

really nice !!
How do you come up with this stuff? lol
That birch lamp is amazing! I'm stealing the idea! Great blog!
Next time you're threading wire, use a pipe cleaner. Bend it in half if the hole is wide enough and use it like a needle.
Amazing Lighting fixtures looking very modern & stylish !!
that aquarium is AMAZING
Really loving the birch lamp base. When I get my own house I'll try and remember that idea and do it. The shapes and slits in the lampshade is also a nice idea. I'm all for furnature that creates a natural mood like that. Good job.
I'll come back and look out for those simple and rustic ikea hacks. Keep it up!
Love the fish tank!!
Neat blog!!
Best wishes, Kimme
I like the aquarium light the best. That is ingenious. Did you design and build the aquarium too?
car buff
I like the 'soldering station' in Picture number 4…
Any chance we could get some details on that?
O I'm loving that suspended aquarium lighting! I may just have to replicate it myself!
I love the lamp by Erin! I'm gonna try to do the same thing;)

Guardians of Middle-earth: Arathorn gameplay video
Guardians of Middle-earth released today on the Xbox 360 (PS3 release was yesterday), and matches are in full swing. GoMe is a console MOBA; consider it the League of Legends of consoles. So while I write my review of the game, here is a video of a full game I played today as Arathorn.
Arathorn, the father to Aragorn, is a Warrior with a ranged basic attack -- a pretty cool combination. His abilities are:
- Staggering Shot - Ranged stun that deals ability damage.
- Dunedain Blade - Swings his blade in an arc, dealing damage over five seconds and slowing enemies.
- Chieftain's Focus - Melee attack that does ability damage and provides an attack speed steroid
- Ranger's Strike - Arathorn's ultimate strikes enemies in front of him for high burst damage, slows them, and then enters Arathorn into stealth for a short duration.
I will be making a guide on how to play Arathorn and how I prefer to build him. Until then, enjoy the game.

Doesn't work. Look at how chavs and uneducated idiots are spreading across the world.
Well, I think if you just ignore them, they'll go away
As am I, but the two are not mutually exclusive. I can care about both.
I'm far more concerned about the war crimes and human rights abuses being committed by Israel—crimes that actually compare to the Nazis—than I am about some muppet making a tasteless gesture.
Posted 18 March 2013 - 14:44
My opinion is that people need to stop being so sensitive about World War II. If the team wants to be tough then by all means drop the player but a lifetime ban seems incredibly excessive. I mean, we're not talking about somebody publicly endorsing Hitler here; in fact he distanced himself from fascism (whether he is sincere or not isn't really that important). I'm far more concerned about the war crimes and human rights abuses being committed by Israel—crimes that actually compare to the Nazis—than I am about some muppet making a tasteless gesture.

usually i would agree, however there has been a rise in facisim and the dangerous right in europe, i mean you only have to look at the BNP and EDL in the UK. I would crack down on this sort of thing as it will breed and people will start think it's ok doing it whenever they want.
The guy admitted he was doing it to support the Golden Dawn political party, so it wasn't just some innocent gesture. Frankly, IMO he got what he deserved. Turning your back to a problem will not make it go away. The Holocaust happened 2 generations ago and people are forgetting just how horrible it was.
I still don't understand the idea of why the Nazi symbol, the salute, or anything that goes along with it, is considered bad and frowned upon.
How was the Nazi army different than any other throughout all of history? I'm not saying that they didn't do bad stuff, but I'm sure there's been worse.
The British and the USA probably slaughtered more people than the Germans did. How come no one frowns upon that?
The Americans go in to countries whenever they feel like it and just start slaughtering people all the time and no one thinks nothing of it.

Miami-based itineraries are planned through the first half of 2014, alternating between the Disney Wonder and Magic.
Hotel Director James Willoughby said the cast and crew is enjoying Miami's cultural mix, as well.
"We also see this incredible opportunity to take these four- and five-night cruises based in Miami," Willoughby said. "The idea of having Grand Cayman, Cozumel as options and having Nassau and Castaway Cay as options, Key West, they're great ports. Four- and five-day cruising is so successful for us, and we love it. We can offer so much in that short time period. It makes you feel as if you've been away for a week. Our guests are loving it. It's so simple."
My family and I started our adventure with a short drive to the Port of Miami, which offers ample parking for $20 a day within walking distance to the main check-in building. We checked our bags outside so we could explore the ship luggage-free and have lunch while our stateroom was being prepared. Our room was ready by 2 p.m., so we had a chance to relax before the sailing-away deck party with all my kids' favorite Disney characters.
The staterooms are designed with families in mind — split bathrooms with two sinks and a bathtub, spacious closet (we fit our double stroller and one suitcase), bunk bed that tucks away in the ceiling, etc. — and many have private verandas.
Guests are put on a dining rotation on the Wonder's three family restaurants, with either a 5:45 p.m. or 8:15 p.m. seating. The servers move with you as you rotate restaurants each night, which makes your experience more personal.
"Get to know your dining room servers because they are incredible at connecting with families," Willoughby said. "We're talking about cultural learning.
The Disney Wonder's three family restaurants include Triton's, based on "The Little Mermaid," Animator's Palate, which has black-and-white décor when you arrive and changes to color by the time you leave, plus an appearance by Mickey Mouse, and Parrot Cay, a Caribbean-themed eatery. There is also a range of quick-service dining options that open at different times throughout the day and night. The freshly made pizza at Pinocchio's Pizzeria was our family's favorite nighttime snack.
Parents, your experience won't be complete without a date night. Take advantage of the ship's fantastic children's programs, and head to Palo, Disney Cruise Line's signature adult-only restaurant serving unforgettable northern Italian dishes. Reservations are required; I recommend making your reservation as far in advance as possible because spots fill up fast; the same goes for the Flounder's Reef Nursery (for infants to age 3).
The night of our reservation, we dropped off our daughter, 1 ½, in the nursery, which is impressive both in its security and quality of care, and then took our 4-year-old son to the Oceaneer Lab, where he went "to infinity and beyond" taking part in space- and science-themed activities. The Oceaneer Club across the hall is themed to Peter Pan's Never Land, and there kids can climb on a pirate ship, play dress-up, do arts and crafts, watch movies and more. Kids are given trackers, so the counselors — who must meet certain training requirements/certifications prior to being hired — can keep track of your children at all times. Both the Oceaneer Club and Lab are for kids ages 3 to 10. Teens and tweens can hang out in either the Vibe or Edge, which both have activities and spaces to just chill.
"Walt Disney said, 'I would rather entertain and hope you learn something than educate and hope you were entertained,'" Abbott said. "In the youth activities program, I want them to learn, and I want them to be entertained because they are on vacation … but I want them to take something away, and I want them to educate their parents."
While in Key West, we took the Old Town Trolley or Conch Train Tour, a 90-minute sightseeing tour that takes you to many of the area's famous landmarks and historical sites. You have the option of getting off the train at one of its stops to explore and then hop back on another train (they come by every 15 minutes). You can either book the tour through Disney or buy tickets at the train station, which is a short walk from the ship.
For Nassau, we booked a Disney shore excursion — the Seaworld Explorer Semi-Submarine tour — since we were not familiar with the Bahamas. Our group met on the ship, and a guide led us to the proper dock. We hopped on one boat, where we received a tour of Nassau Harbor on our way to the semi-submarine boat, which took us to the marine park at Athol Island. We went downstairs in the vessel to view fish and sea life in three reefs.
Castaway Cay was our last— and favorite — stop.
"Castaway Cay remains our No. 1 rated port all over the world," echoed Abbott, adding that families love the aspects of safety and fun in a remote Bahamian island.
Willoughby said the weather is beautiful year-round, and families "just have fun all day long and relax, too."
There are many rental and activity options, including a stingray encounter, glass-bottom boat rides, snorkeling, kayaking and more. We rode bikes around the island, floated in the serene, aquamarine waters on inner tubes, made sand castles and enjoyed a barbecue lunch (food is included at Castaway Cay).

Lara + substandard gameplay = franchise, like the blood and guts from Mortal Kombat + substandard gameplay = franchise. There's no way that Mortal Kombat would be a franchise if it had the same MK gameplay, but the same look as Street Fighter 2 rather than being a gorefest... I mean just look at all the 16-bit fighters that didn't have a gimmick like that but did have substandard gameplay. How many of them turned out to be franchises?
Uncharted has the gameplay and the storytelling. If it had little to no story whatsoever, mediocre gameplay, and the same male lead, it probably wouldn't be a franchise. In that case, if you took out the male lead and put some boobalicious chick in skimpy/tight clothing, it would have a better shot at being a franchise.
A lot of it has to do with timing too. Mortal Kombat was released at a time where ultraviolence wasn't common in games. The original Mortal Kombat predated Doom by over a year, and came out just a few months after Wolfenstein 3D did... that's how far back we're talking about. Violence is certainly more common in games today. Lara is a bit of a mixed bag. I don't think female leads were ultra common back then. Further divide that by skimpy clothing and massive tits, and stick it in a style of game that wasn't common at the time(or maybe perhaps the expansiveness of the game, plus gameplay perspective), and it becomes somewhat unique. To me it was the gimmick more than anything that made those games franchises that still live on today.

FORT WALTON BEACH — After months of research, engineering, tinkering and writing, a group of local college undergraduates can say they have engineered one of the greatest student-made projects in the world.
University of West Florida Emerald Coast students Nathaniel Eubanks, Chris Hayes, Vadim Ilin and Andrew Potter recently placed first in the international Myron Zucker Undergraduate Student Design Contest for their project, "Design of a Solar Array Positioning Controller."
Ilin, 31, said they built a device that follows the sun or any other light source so it autonomously gets energy no matter where it's at.
"It was challenging for sure," the Fort Walton Beach man said. " … It was very interesting to see all the different topics we covered in our curriculum coming together for this project.
"I still can't believe (we won.) We didn't expect it. We knew we had a good project, but this contest was an international award."
Muhammad Rashid, an advisor for UWF's Emerald Coast and Pensacola campuses, said the team's work wasn't something they simply put together. Students in his program work for two semesters to develop their projects, from conception to creating the packaging for the final product.
"I was not surprised when our nominations won," said Rashid who submitted two projects in the contest, which placed first and second. "I was expecting at least one of them to place. We do so much work on it that the projects are good quality."
Rashid said students present updates on their progress in the first semester and work with a mentor in the second semester.
At the end of the second semester, each group of usually two to four students present their project to their class, instructors and other faculty.
The winning teams will receive their awards in October at the Industry Applications Society's annual meeting in Orlando. From there, Rashid said the possibilities are endless.
"Our students are dedicated to high quality," he said. "They graduate and get jobs with top companies like Motorola, GM and the military, or they go on to get their graduate degree from great schools like Georgia Technical Institute or the University of Florida.
"We believe our program provides a quality education and gives our students opportunities to use those skills in life."

My Feedback thread!!
I'd like one too, I don't actually mind the new design
New 52 He-Man is cool
WISHLISTKarg ~ Crita ~ Despara ~ Fang-Or ~ Kittrina ~ Darius ~ Sorceress of Serpos Teela ~ Lodar ~ Hunga The Harpy Great Black Wizard ~ Staghorn ~ Lady Slither ~ Artilla ~ Ra-Jarr ~ Major Header ~ Vultak ~
Crimson Fury ~ Kex Queen ~ Hawke ~ Red Beast ~ Angast ~ Delora ~ Quakke ~ Lord Masque ~ Zilora ~ Three-Beast Robowoman ~ DC He-Man ~ DC She-Ra ~ DC Stratos
I am in support of his new look as well. I can roll with the change..for the most part, and I dont mind his new look at all.
Yeah I like the look too. I as well wouldn't mind an out of sub additional figure of him!
200X fan? Classic fan? What does that mean? I'm a MotU fan!!!
Maybe DC and Mattel could collaborate and produce one for SDCC. A friend pointed out that the issue with the new costume debuts in July.
When I saw the press release, I thought: perfect sdcc extra.
A Want List of Sorts: Saurod, Buzz-Saw Hordak, Dragstor, Perfuma, Dare, Point Dread & The Talon Fighter, Prahvus, Veena, King Chooblah, Flying Fists He-Man, Terror Claws Skeletor, Snake Mountain, Filmation Variants, Roton, and all the other POP & NA characters.
Like the design, hate the current story line.

HELL NO!!! In NO WAY do I EVER want to see this new 52 He-Man in classics as a figure variant EVER!
...HATE these new character designs, and these new comics storylines!

Hurry up and make this damn figure!!! I'll take two. I like the design personally.
You don't stop playing because you grow old you grow old because you stop playing. George Benard Shaw.
I'd rather have the original New 52 He-Man and I'd get a New 52 Teela and Despara.
But that new armor? Yeech!

The Cloak and Dagger Evil-Lyn Thread
Sagitar (Jetlag) Horde Wraiths Azdar Belzar Chazdar Cloak and Dagger Evil-Lyn 200X Teenage Prince Adam 200X Teenage Teela 200X Sorceress General Rattlor (MYP) 200X King Randor and Queen Marlena 200X Battle Armor King Randor and Battle Armor Queen Marlena Ice Armor He-Man WMD Roboto
I'm all in for a New 52 He-Man! Took me some time to get accustomed to the new design but I dig it! He'd be a great out of sub figure like Spirit of Hordak..minus the surprise sale of course.
Yellow cross He-Man or "I just Stole Ironman's lower Torso Armor" He-Man? I'll take the first one not the second one.
FINALLY!! GLIMMER IS IN MY SHELF!! Now I need a Crita!! Crita is to Mara what Evil Lyn is to Teela. If we ARE getting Mara, then we NEED Crita.
I'd be up for New 52 He-Man. I'd also take Teela and The Sorceress.
Not to sound like a creepy cheerleader for Uki, but it's nice to know there is at least one person on this forum who is extremely positive & friendly all the time. I don't think I could be that nice even if you paid me. If we ever give out awards for "forum member of the month", Uki gets my vote. -Mr. Shokoti
Boo52 He-Man.
If you told me that this was a Prince Adam variant, I would be on board 100%!!!
And I know He-Man does has various versions and looks but maybe this has to fester for a while for me to say.... maybe!
'Tis the wind and nothing more.....
I like the fun Idea of a up date . Maybe new powers...New is can be good. Hoping for the best. Long Live He-Man!!!!!
I support most figure wants, but I can't support "Cosplay Ironman" He-Man. I would much prefer the higher anticipated He-Man and Adam figures:
- 200X He-Man
- Savage/Barbarian/Jungle He-Man/Oo-Larr (the one from the first mini-comic)
- Snake Armour He-Man
- Ice Armour He-Man
- 200X, young Prince Adam
- Jetlag Prince Adam
- Slime Pit He-Man
- Anti-Eternia He-Man
All of those He-Man/Adam figures are much more interesting and appealing, in my opinion. The ONLY figure I want out of this new comic (so far), is Despera. It would be cool to get a Nolar Blak head to put on a one of our Royal Guards and the head Skeletor spoke to, but as for FULL figures, just Despera. The New 52 He-Man reminds me of the terrible Snake Hunter He-Man. *shudders*
Take part in Illumina Day! Let people know who she is and help get her in MOTUC.

I'm all for this variant. It's a great re-design for contemporary comic book fans.
I want a new 52 sub

I'll pass. I don't like any of the current DC designs or characterisations for MOTU.
Get rid of the armor under the armor. Get rid of the hip protectors and for goodness sake get rid of the ugly pants. Then sure....I'll take one. I'm ok with the sword & like the chin/knee armor. But maybe it should be more of a durable leather.
Check your local WEATHER here & enter zip.
Go Big Red!!!
I still want one!!!!!!!!!!
I'd like one as well. I don't like variants for the sake of selling a new figure but if they are able to work it into a storyline then I'm all for it.

Midwest Living Review
The artwork, paintings and glassware share one thing in common at We Gallery: Everything is beautiful.
Small but well-stocked, the We Gallery surprised us with its offerings. Silk scarves and colored glass bowls mingle with framed artwork, glassware and jewelry, and prices start low. We found kitschy plastic business card holders for $11 and three-dimensional origami stars for $14. With two sisters guiding the gallery's vision, items lean to feminine sensibilities -- everything here is pretty. An adjacent room hosts makeshift art shows featuring local artists, although the gallery features artwork from artists around the nation. On a shop hop through Akron's artsy side, or a lazy stroll after a visit to the nearby art museum, it's a pleasant stop that'll bring out the girly-girl in you.

Fill in the Blank - What the World needs now is __________ ?
The World is shaped by our common aspirations and it is through our everyday actions that we provide tacit approval to our reality.
Try to answer this question objectively and share your thoughts to help co-create our Future.
Jun 26 2012: A lot of people aim to change the world however in my most humble opinion the world doesn't need to change it just needs to be treated better.
Jun 26 2012: Hi Helena!!!
Nice to see you:>)
In my humble opinion....I agree...:>)
Jun 26 2012: Hi Colleen!
Long time no see. Nice to see you too. :-)Jun 27 2012: Wow that is a good thought, Helena!Jun 27 2012: Hi Helena,
In addition to some rehabilitation and therapy, yes, the world should be treated better. =)
Jun 30 2012: Hi Derek,
Yes, indeed. :-)Jun 30 2012: Wow, nicely said, and very succinctly, too. That needs to be made in an advertising catch phrase. My first thought was to make it into a bumper sticker, but that seems too cheesy and rather counter productive.
But still, well said!
And to Derek: yes, Mither Earth could do with some long sessions on the couch, she's been through amiserable couple of millenia!

"less US and THEM thinking".Jun 24 2012: emotional literacy and more empathy. Also, some therapy. =)Jul 9 2012: What the world needs is a history lesson. We need to look back at civilization, reflect, and advance forward.

Jun 29 2012: common sense
- +4
The more I hear from people, and people in power, the more shocked I become. Look at this excerpt from the texas republican platform 2012.
"We oppose the teaching of Higher Order Thinking Skills (HOTS) (values clarification), critical thinking skills and similar programs that are simply a relabeling of Outcome-Based Education (OBE) (mastery learning) which focus on behavior modification and have the purpose of challenging the student's fixed beliefs and undermining parental authority"
...are you joking me??
We need a healthy dose of common sense among voters.
Jun 29 2012: How much fun is this answer, S Greco!Jun 30 2012: WOW ! That's frightening ! It's unbelievable such words can be written in 2012, it looks like an inquisition statement of the late 12th century! I may have lost all humor, but to me such thoughts, if applied, are a crime against humanity..

Anyone knows how to, but is not allowed to, because he doesn't "own" the earth..
What the world needs now is to un-own itself ! (that would free itself)

Jun 27 2012: a complete system re-format.
- +4
It's not that democracy doesn't work, or capitalism doesn't work, or whatever else doesn't work. It's that ALL systems become inefficient and corrupt over time. Like any other machine they occasionally need to be taken apart, inspected, cleaned thoroughly, and have some of their parts replaced.
Jun 28 2012: Social systems, even if perfect working utopias and well intentioned from the start (a tall order in and of itself), breed around the controls keeping them utopias --just like diseases breed around antibiotics.
- 0
Now what that says about mankind and utopias --and their 'controls' (which give utopias existence at all)-- is left for the reader.
Jun 29 2012: The original Utopia had slaves as a perfectly normal part of its society, because the author could not imagine a society which could function without them. What is possible that we are now failing to imagine?Jul 14 2012: @Lee Miller.
I agree. History shows how every system is overturned at some point. tribal leadership, city-kingdoms, states in one form or another. Fortunately it seems that each overturn gets less and less violent! Perhaps as a rule between reboots, we should construct the society to be as dynamic, modular and flexible as possible ?

1. ..Education.
The human brain are extremely faulty. We have 200+ biases at work all the time, we have numerous perception issues, and everybody is on autopilot 95% of our lives. This is imho the main reason we have trouble moving on. We all need to know when and why we loose rational thinking, and how to remedy that.
2. ..No money.
This sounds insane at first, but i cant find a single big problem that doesn't stem from, or are heavily influenced by our use of money or lack thereof. Money is nothing more than a basic tool to distribute what is necessary for us to have a good life. Money as is today doesn't seem to work anymore. With our current technological level, there are literally hundreds of different ways to distribute our basic nessesities, cooperate and contribute to this world. The need for money is all in our minds, ..and it must go..
3. ..To accept and embrace difference.
Laws of Chaos seem to apply to us. we are all different, will always be different, and nothing we say or do will change that. We need only a few common basic rules for how to communicate, prevent/resolve our conflicts and then lean back and marvel at the diversity. Tree-hugging thoughts? Not at all - this IS our future and it's coming to a theater near you ;-)
How wonderful it could be.. ..thanks for asking the question.. i feel all fired up now :)Jul 14 2012: What the World needs now is an awareness of an experiment we did in Biology class. The result of that experiment is the statement; "Any species in a closed environment with an unlimited supply of food will have a predictable exponential population growth and will cease to exist (mass extinction) as a result of pollution". I agree with a lot of the other world needs but for me this statement trumps everything. Japan's tragedy was and is causing extreme pollution in Japan and around the world. Contrast that with the Japanese invention of a new wind turbine that is more efficient than nuclear energy. The turbine structure is large, white and elegant. Humans are more natural than they are intelligent. HopeJul 13 2012: What the world needs now is a new political movement that is not influenced by big corporations. As long as there are political parties that are influenced by corporations that aim to make a profit by imposing their will on politicians there will be no hope, no peace, no openness and no unlimited innovation.
So what the world needs is political reform. Reform and new ideas that suit this world and its needs better.
Jul 13 2012: I totaly agree with you, but I must add the fact that emerging corporations are one of the many causes, which are pulling people out of poverty throught developing nations of ASIA.Jul 14 2012: Care to write it up for us? You're like the guy who says no to every place that is suggested to go to for dinner but doesn't offer any suggestions himself.

Jul 14 2012: Pirate party is a good start for instance :). Open policy, transparent government, reform of the patent and copyright system which are holding back innovation.
Also why should I say "how" it should be done. The question was "what" does the world need right now. I answered his question.
Jul 16 2012: I must admit that that is a technicality that you got me on, good sir. But, I believe that with such an open-ended response that has to do with working and changing things, not just adding a certain element of humanity, I thought that a more in-depth answer was implied.

Jul 14 2012: hi Sarah, i am in favor of your point. as we all know, the rapid development of technology like the Internet seems make people get closer to each other than before.for example, people from all over the worldl like us are able to interact with each other easily at any time, which is totally beyond our imagenation in the past. but at the same time we intend to ignore the people just around us, our neighours and even our family. i believe the friendly communications with the guys in our daily life will make us feel more comfortable and more happy. so pay more attention to community spirit is really a good way to help us deal with the increasingly pressure we face.Jul 8 2012: More economic equality.

I agree about your opinions about the society today and how its run with the power of money.However as Colleen has said, the society is made up of people,whom I think we should not try to change but help become aware of their 'own' selves therefore gain more people who actually question the current society along with its norms and rules.By doing so,we will have more people who wont accept money as a weapon of enslavement,willing to change the world into a place where the top priority is the preservation and the evolution of the human race as you have expressed very truthfully in my opinion.Jun 26 2012: Well said Beste:>)
What is the society made up of......people? How can the "society itself" change without people changing?
By changing ourselves, we can change the "crap of a one we live in currently", to something more appealing for all of us. "BE" what we want to "SEE" in our world. The ability to change is not "out there" somewhere. It is in each and every one of us, and it is a choice in every moment...seize the moment:>)
Hyun Kim
Jun 26 2012: Society is made not of people, but money. We live in a monetary society today, where the most amount of money enslaves the several with small amounts of money. We are blind to what society doesn't show us, or tell us about. Since you were so apt to point out the incorrect point that I was trying to make, let me rephrase the question, so it fits yours better. What the world needs now is a society that doesn't use money, but uses resources, innovation, and everything that we currently have available to us as humans to make our lives as humans, and the world, a lot better than it currently is. What we need is a world where the top priority is the preservation and the evolution of the human race, not a world where humans are suppressed by the few at the top with the most amount of money.

Jun 27 2012: Hyun,
I agree that money enslaves some people, and in some respects we are blind. I am all for a global society which incorporates people, nature and technology...everything that we have available to us...for the betterment of the whole world. I agree that what we need is a world where the top priority is the preservation and the evolution of people and our environment. I believe that it is people who have the ability to implement a plan such as you insightfully speak of.

I was very disappointed when the US Supreme Court ruled that we have the right to lie.
Lies are so important to every evil doer. Lies should be punished. Children need to learn that truth is a very rare and important factor in their lives. Without truth all sorts of mistakes and misjudgements will be made. When a child breaks something such as a vase, and says "I am sorry. I broke it." He should be noted as being truthful and even brave, if there could be a punishment. If he says "I didn't do it." He should be punished for breaking and punished again for lying. If he says "I didn't do it. She did!" He should be punished four times: For breaking, for lying, for false witnessing, and harming another person's reputation.
So much of our world is based on lies. Big lies, bigger lies, and wholesale falsehoods.
In war, the first casualty is the truth.
The idea of incorporation, the creation of a legal body to take the responsibility, is a lie that is damaging the whole world. The people who damage the sustainability of life on the whole planet bear no personal responsibility for the damage they are doing. The politicians who say whatever it takes to get elected never take responsibility when they do not carry through with their promises.
Truth is the key ingredient that is missing from the world today.
Jul 18 2012: Thank you Jon. You are right on. We cannot make good decisions when we don't have the facts. Logical reasoning will lead us to better decisions if we can get all the relevant verifiable facts.
