I look at myself as an audience member. I still love movies, and I still go and sit in the back of the big dark room with everybody else, and I want the same thrill.Samuel L. Jackson
I've spent several years in Hollywood, and I still think the movie heroes are in the audience.Wilson Mizner
If it's a good movie, the sound could go off and the audience would still have a perfectly clear idea of what was going onAlfred Hitchcock
Movies are not about the weekend that they are released, and in the grand scheme of things, that is probably the most unimportant time of a film's life.Quentin Tarantino†
Too rarely do most of us focus on our real inner beauty and our inner strengths. Do you recall watching "boy meets girl" movies? As the boy and the girl struggled through thick and thin, you hoped and prayed the whole time that everything would work out. He went to war, she left home, he came back, she was gone, he found her, her brother told him to get lost, she told him to get lost, and all the time you hoped that they would live happily ever after.Andrew Matthews
It seems distinctly an understatement to hold that each all-day visitor to the forest derives as much pleasure form it as he would derive from a 2-hour motion-picture show. I have estimated that in the United States approximately 250 million man-days a year are devoted to forest recreation. If the admission price to a movie averages 25 cents, this gives the annual American forest recreation a value of $62,500,000. This is the minimum that people probably would pay for the privilege of using the forest if the price were asked. The incidental fact that people have to pay for admission to the movies and do not usually have to pay for admission to the forests does not mean that the outdoor recreation is any less valuable.Bob Marshall
I tell you one of the great things about this movie is, with all that`s going on around the world right now, it`s just good to go to a movie where you don`t have to think too hard, just have a good time, and relax and be crazy.Blair Underwood
The powering thing behind the movie was to capture the feeling of being alone and going back to Kentucky and getting walloped by a sense of family I hadn't realized was so much in place.Cameron Crowe
The British are so incestuous. They pass around partners like they're passing popcorn at a movie.Cameron Diaz
A movie camera is like having someone you have a crush on watching you from afar -- you pretend it's not there.Daryl Hannah
The challenge for me is still to do something that hasn't been beaten into the movie going consciousness. Otherwise what am I in it for?Johnny Depp
Multiplicity was a movie that tested really well. People seeing the movie really liked it, but then the studio could not market it. We opened on a weekend with nine other films.Harold Ramis†
Karate is a form of martial arts in which people who have had years and years of training can, using only their hands and feet, make some of the worst movies in the history of the world.Dave Barry
Movies can and do have tremendous influence in shaping young lives in the realm of entertainment towards the ideals and objectives of normal adulthoodWalt Disney
The power and influence of a movie star is curious: I didn't ask for it or take it; people gave it to me. Simply because you're a movie star, people empower you with special rights and privileges.Marlon Brando
Movie critics have complained that the movie lacks coherent vision. The fault may not be Stone's. We know what [Alexander] did, and it continues to astonish us, but we don't know how or why he did it...Stone suggests some noble purpose for Alexander's mad, bloody tromp across Asia. He and his historical consultant shared a need to give meaning to a meaningless conquest.Eugene N. Borza
I get offered so many bad movies. And they're all raging queens or transvestites or Martians.David Robert Jones
There's only one thing that can kill the movies, and that's education.Will Rogers
In 1990, the MPAA introduced the NC-17 rating to provide an outlet for legitimate adult fare non-pornographic motion pictures with content deemed too strong for the under-17 crowd. The first movie released with an NC-17 was Henry & June, whose financial failure was widely blamed on the new rating. After that, all potentially-lucrative films receiving an NC-17 made the cuts required by the MPAA to earn an R. Now, in 1995, there's Showgirls, the most significant test of the NC-17's commercial viability to date. Helmed by Paul Verhoeven (Total Recall, Basic Instinct) and written by Joe Eszterhas (Jagged Edge, Basic Instinct), this movie is going into wide release with the adult rating. Too bad it's one of the worst films of the year.James Berardinelli
Being a movie star, and this applies to all of them, means being looked at from every possible direction. You are never left at peace, you`re just fair game.Greta Garbo
Fiction is one of the few experiences where loneliness can be both confronted and relieved. Drugs, movies where stuff blows up, loud parties -- all these chase away loneliness by making me forget my name's Dave and I live in a one-by-one box of bone no other party can penetrate or know. Fiction, poetry, music, really deep serious sex, and, in various ways, religion -- these are the places (for me) where loneliness is countenanced, stared down, transfigured, treated.David Foster Wallace

Letter from the Director
Jim Augerot
by Jim Augerot
Reflection and transition are in the air this fall as we think back to the dramatic events in the Soviet Union in the second half of 1991, and look forward to what is to come in the next 20 years in the field of Russian, East European and Central Asian studies. I encourage you to read Dan Waugh's article "The Train Car on the Siding: Central Asia and the 1991 Coup" as well as a collection of memories from faculty and alumni who provided us with glimpses of where they were and how they reacted to news of the attempted coup of 1991. We also want to draw attention to the remarkable contributions of Stephen Hanson, Bob Huber and Carol Vipperman to our field and to relations with the REECAS region. Finally, we are proud to say that despite the 46.53% cut to Title VI funds for the 2011-2012 academic year, our commitment to the region remains strong and we are continuing to provide new courses, less commonly taught languages and FLAS fellowships as well as to host community events and educator workshops.
We are pleased to welcome three new faculty to REECAS: Drs. Julie Gralow, Devin Naar and Adam Kozuchowski. Dr. Julie Gralow is head of medical oncology at Seattle Cancer Care Alliance and on faculty at the UW Medical School. She has been working in our region since 1997, and since 2003 has held biennial Breast Cancer Advocacy Programs in Eastern Europe and Central Asia to help foster and support the breast cancer outreach movement throughout the region. Devin Naar just joined the UW this fall as the Marsha & Jay Glazer Assistant Professor in Jewish Studies. Professor Naar's research interests include the Balkans and Ottoman Empire. Adam Kozuchowski is this year's visiting Fulbright Lecturer from Poland and you can read more about him in this newsletter.
REECAS faculty continue to publish fascinating manuscripts. We would like to congratulate Glennys Young (The Communist Experience in the Twentieth Century: A Global History Through Sources), Barbara Henry (Rewriting Russia: Jacob Gordin's Yiddish Drama) and Galya Diment (A Russian Jew of Bloomsbury: The Life and Times of Samuel Koteliansky) for their hard work. Despite the cuts, the Ellison Center continues to host events and workshops for educators. This fall we have been fortunate to have talks by the US Ambassador to Mongolia Jonathan Addleton, Czech economist Tomas Sedlacek and a book talk by Glennys Young. We have co-organized the two-part Master Teacher Workshop "Europe's Muslim Populations: Historical Contexts and Contemporary Challenges from East to West" with the Center for West European Studies. We look forward to upcoming visits by Marian Rubchak from Valparaiso University and Deputy Chief of Mission Maciej Pisarski from the Polish Embassy. Finally, please mark your calendars for the 18th Northwest Conference for Russian, East European and Central Asian Studies on Saturday, April 21 at Evergreen State College in Olympia, Washington.
As many of you know, after more than 20 years of teaching and service at UW, Stephen Hanson left Seattle this summer to take a new position as vice provost for international affairs and director of the Wendy and Emery Reves Center for International Studies at the College of William and Mary in Williamsburg, Virginia. His legacy at UW will live on through his contributions to building and endowing the Ellison Center.
We would also like to recognize the contributions and dedication of Carol Vipperman, founder and president the Foundation for Russian and American Economic Cooperation (FRAEC). For 22 years, FRAEC advanced US-Russian relations through building community and economic ties between citizens of both countries. Through working with citizens, governments, businesses and other organizations, FRAEC brought people together, fostered productive new relationships, inspired new ideas and narrowed the gap between the US and Russia. We wish Carol the very best in her future endeavors.
It is with great sorrow that we write of the passing of Robert Huber on Tuesday, June 7, 2011 following a brief battle with cancer. Bob was a wonderful friend and partner of the Ellison Center. He was a dedicated advocate of advancing scholarship on our region and his presence will be missed by students in the classroom and colleagues around the world. His contributions to the field are numerous and it was an honor to have him as member of REECAS faculty for the past five years.
In addition to his teaching, Bob served as President of NCEER for thirteen years, supporting post-doctoral research on the social, political, economic, environmental and historical development of Eurasia and Central and Eastern Europe. He also served as a Senior Consultant for Social Science Programs to the American Councils for International Education: ACTR/ACCELS, and Editor of the policy research journal, Problems of Post-Communism. His own publications included Soviet Perceptions of the U.S. Congress: Impact on Superpower Relations, and (co-edited with Donald R. Kelley) Perestroika-Era Politics: The New Soviet Legislature and Gorbachev's Political Reforms, as well as several articles and special studies on Soviet foreign policy and the Russian national security establishment and on the post-Soviet Russian parliament. In recent years, he had been involved in a multi-year research effort to write the institutional histories of the major national research organizations in the field of Eurasian and East European studies.
A memorial reception for Bob Huber has been scheduled for Friday, November 18 at 7:30pm, at the Omni Shoreham Hotel in conjunction with the ASEEES conference in Washington, DC. The event has been graciously co-sponsored by NCEER and IREX. Dr. Dan Davidson of American Councils and Dr. Stephen Hanson of William and Mary will speak at the event.
We hope you will join us in recognizing the contributions of these individuals who have all left an impressive legacy of knowledge, advocacy and inspiration. Their tireless work inspires us to build on their efforts by continuing to strengthen the Ellison Center and the place of REECAS in scholarship and policy-making. And while we are recognizing such service, I want to especially recognize the work of our Staff, Associate Director Marta Mikkelsen, Assistant Director for Outreach Allison Dvaladze, and Program Coordinator Mark Di Virgilio, without whose personal commitment and diligent labors we would be lost.
And finally, we would like to extend a warm welcome to our new class of incoming REECAS students and our visiting scholars from Ukraine, Belarus and Azerbaijan (see newsletter interviews to learn more about these interesting guests). We are looking forward to a new year filled with exciting lectures and public events.

London Irish have boosted their front-row options with the loan signings of Michael Mayhew and Davy McGregor.
Mayhew, the 26-year-old New Zealander, makes the short-term switch to the Exiles from RFU Championship leaders Newcastle Falcons.
Mayhew made nine Premiership appearances for the Falcons last season, however the hooker has seen Rob Vickers make the No 2 jersey his own this season.
Falcons director of rugby Dean Richards said: "It is a great opportunity for Michael to get some game time under his belt and it will give him valuable experience."
Mayhew will be joined at the Exiles by former Ulster, Rotherham and Plymouth hooker McGregor.
The 22-year-old, who has been capped by Ireland at Under-20s level, arrives on loan from National One side Coventry.

Good Points
Fairly small, fairly light, easy to use.
Bad Points
No clock, lacks many features, primitive looking screen.
General Comments
I've had this phone for a year now, and it's okay. I've never had any trouble with it, and for basic fuctions it does everything I could want. In particular, the method of inputting punctuation and special characters into text messages is by far the best I've come across (better than Nokia, for example). However, it lacks an on-screen clock, games and interchangable fascias, which although not major problems are quite annoying. Another problem is that the phone displays only the number of people you send and receive SMS from and to, not their name as well - this can get confusing when you receive an SMS from someone and you don't recognise the number. Overall this is an okay phone, but now dated so I'll probably upgrade to a better Siemens phone such as the C35 or S35.

New Nightline: David Westin Speaks
ABC News prez David Westin talks to the AP's David Bauder about tonight's premiere:
> On the post-Koppel changes: "Most programs, if they stay around for a long time, take on a structure imparted by the anchors. So when you change the personality, you have to make changes in the program. Ted is a very strong example of that, but he's not unique."
> On the old format that focused on a single story every night: You have two choices — either you ignore them altogether, or you stretch. If you go away from the ironclad commitment to the single topic, it gives you more flexibility to cover the stories that you think really matter to people."
> On his emphasis on being live at 11:35pm: "I certainly wanted to make sure we were totally responsive to being on the news, and that's hard to do when you've taped the program at 6 (o'clock) in the evening and people have largely gone home."
> On concerns that "the clock is ticking:" "I've been getting no pressure in that regard. The only pressure for us is putting on a really good program and succeeding. If we do that, we're fine. If we don't do that, we shouldn't be fine."


text: Massa says Red Bull problems a boost for other teams 2 February, 2014 Felipe Massa Felipe Massa ended the final day of testing at Jerez fastest of all, and afterwards said that he would be worried if he were a Red Bull driver, but he admitted that it's refreshing that the World Champions are not two seconds faster than everyone else. When asked by TotalRace about Red Bull's problems, Massa said, "I'd be worried, but at least they have some problems this year and are not two seconds faster than the others, as they were in some places in last year." "They're having some problems and when we do not see Red Bull in front all the time it ends up being positive for others," he added. Massa, who moved from Ferrari to Williams for this season, completed 133 laps in the all navy blue FW36 of which 86 laps were completed on day four in Spain. As for topping the timing sheets, Massa responded, "It's always good to be first, but it is still only the beginning. There were teams who did more laps than us…" (GP247) Subbed by AJN.

Its easy to disable GRUB menu at startup but if anything goes wrong with update/upgrade in future, you will have to use LiveCD/USB to boot.
Open /etc/default/grub file with root privileges and set timeout value to 0. Save file and execute update-grub command.It is amazing what you can accomplish if you do not care who gets the credit.

Showing 11 through 13 of 13 reviewsGurkha Grand Age
"Very disappointed"Gurkha Grand Age
I bought a 5-pack of these and my first smoke was an amazing struggle for cigar in this price range. I found myself sucking like vacuum to get the smoke out it and it stayed that way through the whole smoke. The wrapper cracked as I went through it and it just seemed like it didn't generated much smoke. All-in-all a very disappointing smoke. Hopefully the others in the pack will be better. But it seems I could spend a lot less and get a better smoke.Paul K in Mukwonago, WI September 30, 2010
"A very enjoyable smoke."Gurkha Grand Age
This is a really smooth cigar with nice flavor throughout. These Grand Age are a long smoke with medium strength.Bill in Moline, IL March 10, 2010

%% Please add only lampshaded, discussed or conversed examples.
->''His mom is dead, his dad was missing and presumed dead, he's running around with a military organization...it's not exactly conducive to therapy--and, of course, because its TV, therapists dont exist.''
-->--'''Connor Jessup''' on his character Ben Mason from ''Series/FallingSkies''
In most fiction, there are ''no'' official systems in place to protect those who are psychologically vulnerable. Nobody is ever concerned that the kid who watched their parents die might be considering suicide, [[FreudianExcuse homicide]], or [[Franchise/{{Batman}} fighting crime]] [[Series/{{Dexter}} without due process]]. Fiction is full of [[BunnyEarsLawyer Bunny-Ears Lawyers]] but this will be ignored so long as they're not [[AxCrazy crazy with axes]].
This trope isn't saying the solution to every mental problem is to go to a head shrink; merely that there is an extreme amount of GenreBlindness regarding traumatic experiences, probably for the sake of convenience and drama. Remember, FictionIsNotFair in regards to characters.
Can be a JustifiedTrope, as you can hardly ''expect'' a rag-tag band of rebels in an oppressive dystopia to open up to a potential informant and a historical setting may predate therapy altogether. That being said, protesters in the [[RealLife Occupy movement]] have sometimes provided free healthcare systems which can include mental health care. Presumably a therapist [[TheHerosJourney must show some form of solidarity to be trusted]].
May be an EnforcedTrope out of a belief that [[DysfunctionJunction fiction's more interesting that way]], because the writers think poorly of psychiatry--or maybe because the characters belong to a culture which places the responsibility for an individual's mental state on their [[ParentalAbandonment family]] and [[LonersAreFreaks friends]].
SisterTrope of AdultsAreUseless.
!! Related Tropes
* AllTherapistsAreMuggles: If the character is involved in TheMasquerade and can't confess their trauma over fighting cyborgs or vampires to a therapist without ending up [[BedlamHouse locked up]] and "treated" until they're [[GoAmongMadPeople exponentially more screwed up]].
* DysfunctionJunction: For stories (or works) where a main plot of the story is that those ''entire'' characters being cast are ''crazy''.
* PsychoPsychologist: They're making the situation worse.
* TheShrink: If a character does go to a therapist but the therapist is unskilled, condemnatory, or otherwise problematic, see TheShrink; versions 1 and 2. If this trope is averted when the character goes to a good therapist and gets the help they need, see TheShrink; version 3.
* TherapyIsForTheWeak: If the character has been offered therapy, but rejected it.
In the case of children, there may be overlap with SocialServicesDoesNotExist. Can also overlap with TheCobblersChildrenHaveNoShoes.
%% Please add only lampshaded, discussed or conversed examples.
[[folder:Anime & Manga]]
* [[http://www.mangareader.net/all-rounder-meguru/47/8 Lampshaded]] in ''Manga/AllRounderMeguru'' as part of a critique of Japanese beliefs in stoicism over therapy.
* Lampshaded in an episode in the English dub of ''Anime/DigimonAdventure02''. When Ken (who joined after a HeelRealization, having been the most insane villain they'd faced yet - yes, surpassing the MonsterClown) suggests that Wormmon talk to a therapist about his problems, Wormmon asks why ''he'' didn't talk to someone before [[VideoGameCrueltyPotential becoming the Digimon Emperor]]?
* Unintentionally {{Lampshaded}} in ''Anime/RebuildOfEvangelion'' when a character comments "those kids are our last hope, who knows what they're going through?" Many HumongousMecha series feature characters who clearly have flagrant psychological issues which are inexplicably overlooked so long as they are good pilots, which naturally never lasts for long.
* Strikingly averted in ''LightNovel/KyoKaraMaoh'', in which Ken Murata was sent to therapy as a child to help him [[spoiler:cope with his PastLifeMemories and assert his own personal identity]]. He comes out of it reasonably well-adjusted, considering, and remains friends with his therapist.
[[folder:Comic Books]]
* Parodied in ''ComicBook/WhatIf'' v2 #2, where Comicbook/{{Daredevil}} murdered the Kingpin and went insane with guilt. While he's running around, he bumps into [[NinetiesAntiHero the Punisher]]. When he sees just how broken Daredevil's become, Castle actually recommends a psychiatrist and offers to take him there personally.
* [[JustifiedTrope Justified]] in ''ComicBook/TheWalkingDead''; so far, no member of the group past or present has been a therapist. For all we know, there might not be any therapists left.
** Lampshaded by Sergeant Ford in issue 61.
[[folder:Fan Works]]
* Lampshaded in an author's note for the ''Anime/MaiHime'' fanfic ''[[http://www.fanfiction.net/s/4004316/1/Windows-of-the-Soul Windows of the Soul]]'':
-->''Sometimes I wonder whether it would be easier if I just had Shizuru see a psycologist. The problem being, how does she say "I have a huge guilt complex over killing scores of people with my summoned demon named after the legendary Kiyohime" without being put in an asylum? Perhaps the First District has specialized psycologists. Oh, wait. She blew them up. That's what she's guilty about.''
* ''Escape From The Hokage's Hat'' has a subversion. While Tsunade helps Naruto deal with his issues, she only tries to help when Naruto ''allows'' her to considering how stubborn he is. She does however lament that it would've been nice to have a Yamanaka along to help but since 2 of them where involved in brainwashing Naruto, the clan is on her shitlist at the moment.
* ''Fanfic/ADifferentDursleyFamily'': {{Averted|Trope}}. Petunia met one when she realized she was letting her jealousy towards Lily affect the way she treated Harry.
* Subverted in ''Film/TheWorldOfHenryOrient''; when Marian first hears her new best friend Valerie leaves school early every day to see a psychiatrist, she thinks it's this shocking thing, especially when her mother and her mother's best friend Boothy act shocked when they hear the news. However, it turns out the only reason they were shocked is because of how young Valerie is (13 or so), and both of them each saw a psychiatrist briefly after their respective divorces.
* Played with in every way in Bujold's ''Literature/VorkosiganSaga''. The main character is from Barrayar, a feudal militaristic culture where one is expected to go through hell and get over it without complaints and ''definitely'' [[ThereAReNoTherapists without therapy]], but his mother is from Beta Colony, a high-tech hyper-sophisticated and modern world where all is well-regulated and therapy is the normal response to any trauma or psychological issue. The trope is inverted in the first book for both worlds: Cordelia's awesome Betan therapists refuse to believe she is actually sane and wasn't brainwashed into falling in love with the enemy and she ends up having to run away, while it's revealed that Barrayaran therapy of the kind [[spoiler: Bothari]] went through is possibly [[MindRape worse]] [[LaserGuidedAmnesia than]] the original trauma. In later books the trope is played straight (and Lampshaded by Cordelia repeatedly), especially where Barrayar is concerned. But it is thankfully averted for [[spoiler: Mark]] after a book or two, because he [[TykeBomb really]] [[MindRape REALLY]] [[SplitPersonality needs]] it.
* Dr. Lense in the ''Literature/StarfleetCorpsOfEngineers'' series has a serious case of PTSD from the Dominion War, but specifically chose assignment to the ''[=DaVinci=]'' because the ship's complement is too small to have a counselor aboard. When Captain Gold finds out her performance as CMO is slipping, he tells her she can work out her issues with him as a sounding board or he'll have her downchecked for duty and booted off the ship pending a full psych workup.
* ''Literature/TheRedVixenAdventures'': On Foxen Prime anyways, foxens are supposedly more mentally stable on average than humans so they have very little experience helping those who do develop mental illnesses, House Darktail has to import a psychologist from Earth to help Sallivera with the trauma inflicted by her abusive ex-husband.
* Averted in ''Literature/VampireAcademy''. At first, Rose, Eddie, Christian and Mia just resume normal life after [[spoiler:watching Mason die]], but then Rose is sent to therapy after she starts seeing [[spoiler:Mason's ghost]]. She discovers that it's not PTSD, as she was told, but a side effect of being shadow-kissed.
[[folder:Live Action TV]]
* Some police procedural and military themed series try to avert this trope with special episodes focused on the main characters being forced to attend mandatory counseling sessions to determine whether they are fit for duty.
** ''[[{{Series/PersonofInterest}} Person of Interest]] has the unique distinction of being both a standard procedural and an arc-based SciFi PostCyberpunk CrimeDrama series at the same time. When Reese goes to therapy in Season 4 [[spoiler:as part of his police detective cover identity]], his therapist is unable to properly treat his ChronicHeroSyndrome because of the secrets he has no choice but to harbor.
*** Also of note is the first therapist shown in the series [[spoiler:isn't a therapist at all but is instead a psychopath hacker in a cover identity.]]
* Averted in ''Series/{{Garo}}'''s first season, and justified in the sequel. When Kaoru dreams about her father's picture book at the start of the series, she regularly visits a therapist who helps her to explain this dreams, and helps her with the weird things she suffers since discovering the existence of Horrors. The justified during the second season comes from the fact that [[spoiler:the therapist was actually the BigBad of the first season and tried to sacrifice Kaoru to bring the end of the world]], which explains why she may not have desire to try therapy any time soon.
* Completely averted by ''Series/{{MASH}}'', in which Sidney Freedman is a recurring Type 3.
* ''Series/{{Merlin}}'': JustifiedTrope in the case of Merlin. This is maybe a thousand years before therapy was even invented. In fact, Merlin himself may have had to invent therapy out of necessity to deal with everything he goes through. He's basically taken on the role of therapist to all of his friends (FridgeBrilliance as to why he [[BecameTheirOwnAntithesis grows more manipulative and darker over the series]]; he shoulders A LOT of baggage).
* A surprising aversion in ''Series/{{Continuum}}''. Mostly, there's an implied AllTherapistsAreMuggles in play; the protagonist is from the future, so if she tried to talk about her problems, she'd get locked in an asylum. That's exactly what happened to another time traveler (though in fairness, he really was crazy, as evidenced by the fact that he didn't see anything wrong with chatting about being from the future). The aversion comes into play when Kiera strikes an officer in anger, and she finds out that her cybernetic AugmentedReality implant has a therapist AI ''built-in''. He's briefly an inversion of AllTherapistsAreMuggles; he doesn't believe that they're really in the past and assumes she's had a psychotic break, but when he can't contact headquarters, he tables that issue and moves on to her real problems.
* Averted on ''Series/{{Friends}}''. Ross sees one when he's struggling with anger issues and both [[{{HilariouslyAbusiveChildhood}} Chandler]] and Monica mention that they've been to therapists and even discuss it in one episode.
-->'''Chandler:''' I hate having to see the shrink. He's always "oh, maybe people will like you better if you like yourself better". Who needs that?\\
'''Monica:''' You do!\\
'''Chandler:''' I know.
* Averted on ''Series/TheXFiles''; therapists of varying kinds are seen. Scully sees a therapist at least twice to discuss her problems. Mulder sees one to be hypnotized into remembering the events of his sister's abductions, and eventually takes Scully there to be hypnotized into remembering one of her own abductions.
* Averted in ''Series/{{Castle}}''. After Beckett is shot in the season 3 finale, she visits a therapist repeatedly over the course of the next season and it actually helps her a lot.
* ''Franchise/StarTrek'' tried to avoid this somewhat by instituting the position of "Ship's Counselor", but still ran into it on occasion. ''Series/StarTrekDeepSpaceNine'' and ''Series/StarTrekVoyager'' had excuses though: Ezri Dax was still in training when she was assigned as counselor, while Captain Janeway said in an early episode that ''Voyager'' hadn't been expected to need one (being that the mission they were ''supposed'' to have took place well within shouting distance of a major starbase, Deep Space 9).
* ''Music/{{Quadrophenia}}'' features the overlap with AdultsAreUseless. Jimmy asks a therapist, vicar, and his mother in the very second song, but it doesn't do any good.
[[folder:Video Games]]
* This trope is literal in ''VideoGame/{{Furcadia}}'' as psychology has not been invented yet and magic generally only heals the body and not the mind. Several of the gods in this setting are also insane (oh, and like to wander among the mortals...).
* Deconstructed in ''VideoGame/BlazeUnion''. We learn very early on that its BrokenHero, Gulcasa, has a lot of serious issues due to having been abused and abandoned by his parents, and he's only able to function because his childhood friends (who are also pretty much his adoptive parents) [[LivingEmotionalCrutch are there to act as amateur counselors for him]]. During the canon route of the game, Siskier dies, and [[TraumaCongaLine this is really only just the start]]. Gulcasa blames himself for everything, and winds up with a raging case of PTSD which [[FailureKnight makes him so terrified of failure]] that he stops hesitating altogether and starts acting much more stoically. His remaining childhood friend and mentor mistake his symptoms for Gulcasa losing his humanity, as [[FantasticRacism it was conveniently revealed that he's part demon]]. [[EtTuBrute And they try to kill him]], leaving Gulcasa a complete psychological wreck. The only people who even bother to try to help him have their own agendas, not to mention their own festering cesspools of mental-emotional trauma. In all likelihood, things wouldn't have gone [[KillEmAll quite so badly]] for Gulcasa and company [[YggdraUnion three years later]] if someone had just gotten the poor kid a competent grief counselor.
* Parodied in ''VideoGame/AlphaProtocol'' if Mike is played as a brutal, violent {{Jerkass}} to Madison. She'll ask him if he has ever sought professional help. He replies that he hasn't, because he ''killed'' all his therapists.
* Key to the plot of ''VideoGame/{{Kinder}}''; a running theme is that 'mind illnesses' are not recognized as a real problem in its world, instead attributed to things like "they're just lazy" or "they're just complaining for no reason." Naturally, this causes major problems. Yuuichi eventually states that there's probably worlds out there were 'mind illnesses' actually ''are'' recognized and treated more seriously.
* Interestingly averted in ''VideoGame/TheLastDoor''. There's buckets of crazy MindScrew and just plain terrible things happening to the protagonist, Jeremiah, but he has a therapist who seems very concerned about him. An interesting touch considering the story takes place in the 1890s where therapy wouldn't be as accessible as it is today.
[[folder:Web Comics]]
* In ''Webcomic/SomethingPositive'' there are many cases of this, sometimes lampshaded, but the one that stuck out most for me is when Davan never gets help after being raped by a woman he was attracted to. Sadly this is probably TruthInTelevision for many rape victims, especially male ones, and especially when the rapist is a woman.
** That example is possibly justified, given [[http://somethingpositive.net/sp02012003.shtml his in comic discussion]] of the subject. Sadly this attitude is also [[TruthInTelevision Truth in WebComics]] too.
* Played with in ''Webcomic/{{Spacetrawler}}''. The ''I.A. Starbanger'' does have a Therapy-bot, but he's terrible: his therapy consists solely of telling patients that their feelings are irrational. Eventually, Martina realizes that one of her crew desperately needs treatment for post-traumatic stress disorder, so she replaces Therapy-bot with a ''qualified'' therapist--the bartender bot.
* Played with in ''Webcomic/FreakAngels'' comics. Sirkka is the local equivalent of a psychologist and helps abuse victims and people [[MindRape mind raped]] by Mark. Her own love life, on the other hand, is a total mess. Other Freakangels [[DysfunctionJunction are not much better]] with the group consisting of TheOphelia, an IneffectualLoner, a KnightTemplar, a guy [[MyGodWhatHaveIDone driven crazy by his own guilt]], AGodAmI wannabe and a few other dysfunctional personality types. Some hide it better than others. At the end they all get a quick therapy from [[spoiler:Arkady]] of all people and [[spoiler: Luke]] is [[HeelFaceBrainwashing fixed]] on his own request. Even [[spoiler:Mark]] seems to be much more sane. It is implied that their problems [[EpiphanyTherapy didn't magically disappear]], but they will eventually get over their issues with some [[PowerOfLove love]] and hard work. Webcomic/FreakAngels are TrueCompanions after all.
* Zig-zagged in ''Webcomic/ALoonaticsTale''. There ''are'', in fact, therapists, they're even major characters in the comic, but they have a whole host of psychological issues all their own which may or may not prevent them from actually doing their patients any good (at least one is too apathetic to do his job, so he just medicates them into oblivion). On top of that, most of them reckon that, since they're therapists, they're immune to psychological disorders, and wouldn't need help even if they weren't.
* Averted with a vengeance in ''Webcomic/MaterialGirl''. As the story gets darker and the CerebusSyndrome kicks in, Noah's parents go from joking about taking him to a therapist to forcibly strapping him into the car and dragging him to one.
* Zig-zagged in ''Webcomic/BetterDays''. After Fisk [[spoiler:hits his principle with a baseball bat for trying to rape his mother]], the police officer who arrives on the scene gives Fisk the number of a child psychologist for him to meet with to deal with the trauma of the situation. The chapter ends with Fisk meeting the psychologist and, when asked how he feels, gives a very frank explanation of how he felt completely justified in what he did, even if he knows he shouldn't. The psychologist smirks and draws a dollar sign on her notepad, implying that she is just interested in milking money out of his case. Shortly after though, it's shown that Fisk is continuing with his therapy sessions and that they're very helpful in helping him deal with [[spoiler:being coerced into sex with Nikki, a young girl who was sexually abused by her father]]. The psychologist also helps out by [[spoiler:investigating Nikki's home life, learning that her dad is a wanted criminal, and having Sheila keep Nikki out of the way on the day the police plan to raid her home]].
[[folder:Web Original]]
* WebVideo/TheNostalgiaCritic used to mention going to a therapist a lot, but that stopped, probably because the character was getting more and more damaged and it was funnier that way.
** In fact, a running gag among multiple reviewers is their constant danger of insanity due to the bad things they are "forced" to experience. Plenty of reviews have gags where the reviewer pops "happy pills" like they were candy, chugs from a bottle of booze, or is forcibly restrained by men in white coats. Some have even tried to destroy the world in a bout of rage. [[TheSpoonyExperiment Spoony]] deserves special mention as a full-on insane convicted serial killer.
* This trope is {{deconstructed}} in ''Literature/FunnyBusiness'', in that the character who desperately needs psychiatric attention is [[StepfordSmiler hiding any indication that something's wrong]]. In other words, the only reason ThereAreNoTherapists is because the patient doesn't want to go to one, which is sadly TruthInTelevision for some victims of depression.
* Defied in ''Literature/{{Worm}}'' when Weld specifically requests therapy for the Brockton Bay Wards after the 8 Extermination arc, in which [[spoiler:Aegis and Gallant died during Leviathan's attack]].
[[folder:Western Animation]]
* Played with in ''WesternAnimation/WinxClub'': The Trix are sent to a place where they are supposed to be reformed, but it only manages to tick them off even more.
* Lampshaded in ''WesternAnimation/AsToldByGinger'' in an episode where Ginger becomes jealous of Darren's new relationship with [[AlphaBitch Miranda]]. Of course, she didn't technically '''see''' a psychologist.
-->'''Ginger:''' It's just that Dr Phonsfeelings said--
-->'''Darren:''' Whoa, you went to see a therapist?
-->'''Ginger:''' Not exactly. She was on Channel 9.
** Said TV psychologist appears in another episode and causes more problems when Ginger starts freaking out that her mother is still single.
** And inverted in another episode where Ginger is sent to the school psychologist because she writes a poem about a girl who wishes to disappear. Everyone assumes Ginger has suicidal intentions because of this, but she's actually fine.
* Zig-zagged in ''WesternAnimation/YoungJustice''. Black Canary is a trained therapist, and is shown having sessions with the teens after seriously traumatizing events. When Arsenal begins to suffer from serious issues that have interfered with their missions more than once Nightwing benched him, which is pretty much the same as telling him he's off the team until he can deal with his personal demons.
* Zig-zagged in ''WesternAnimation/AdventureTime''. Ooo is a [[CloudCuckooLand very strange place]] with a lot of [[CloudCuckooLander even stranger people]], but there actually ''are'' mental health services for those who need them. For a lot of the earlier episodes, however, this trope was played straight, with people such as [[TheMentallyDisturbed Lemongrab]] and [[IneffectualSympatheticVillain Ice King]] basically just being dealt with when they caused trouble and ignored when they didn't. Both of them have now been getting a lot more help.

Snow removal puts state $6 million in hole
A Department of Transportation plow truck treats the road way at the Interstate 93 and Interstate 293 split in Manchester on Tuesday. (DAVID LANE/UNION LEADER)
The state budgeted about $39 million for winter maintenance but expects to spend about $45 million. Last winter totaled about $32 million for "a relatively mild winter," department spokesman Bill Boynton said Tuesday.
"As always is the case, we don't know how the winters are going to play out," Boynton said, noting last month ranked as the worst month in 20 years on a winter severity index that measures the effect of weather on maintaining roads.
Before Tuesday's storm, Concord already had 72 inches of snow this winter, 17.2 inches above normal.
At the same point last year, the city saw 48.9 inches compared to a normal 54.8 inches, according to the National Weather Service.
A fleet of 310 state plow trucks and 437 hired trucks cleared 4,600 miles of state-maintained roads Tuesday. A statewide storm typically costs about $565,000 for an eight-hour shift without overtime, including staff, equipment and salt. An eight-hour overtime shift runs $609,000.
Some crews in southwest New Hampshire were called out at 10 p.m. Monday.
Last winter's budget had more than $7 million left over, with some of that money devoted to tasks such as tree trimming and guardrail work in the summer, Boynton said.

How does Liam love Sophia? Let us count the ways! Read on to find out why Liam is so crazy about his childhood crush turned girlfriend, Sophia!
It's no secret that Liam Payne is totally smitten with his new girlfriend, Sophia Smith — but have you heard all the reasons why? Liam, 19, and Sophia, 24, go way back to their school days at St. Peter's Collegiate School in England, so they obviously have a long history and lots of shared experiences. The one thing they don't have is drama — and Liam likes it that way!
Liam Payne's New Girlfriend — Why He Loves Sophia Smith
After Liam,19, broke up with his on-again, off-again girlfriend of three years, Danielle Peazer, 25, in May, he was hoping his next love would be an "easy-going girl," according to Us Weekly.
It seems like Liam really lucked out with Sophia — his friends say she is very sweet and down-to-earth.
Sophia also understands how important One Direction is to Liam — she even flew 5,000 miles across the Atlantic so she could attend the band's final U.S. concert in Los Angeles on August 10.
Meanwhile, Liam's former flame Danielle had him contemplating leaving the band just so he could spend more time with her. That simply won't do!
It seems like Sophia is a much better fit for Liam.
Liam Payne Defends Dating Sophia Smith On Twitter
Unfortunately, not everyone is on board with Liam's new love, and Liam was not amused when his fans dissed his relationship with Sophia on Twitter. On August 21, he posted two intense messages about the hate mail he's received about Sophia on social media.
Liam and Sophia attended the premiere of the One Direction film This Is Us on August 20 and they looked so happy together. So it was a total surprise to read Liam's angry tweets the next day. Still, we don't blame him at all for defending Sophia at all — in fact, it's very honorable of him and it shows how much he cares about her.
"Always sad to get on here to read horrible stuff about someone you care about," he tweeted. Then he followed up that tweet with another that read: "There is that old saying tho if you ain't got sh*t nice to say then f**k you."
This was a strong message to send to his One Direction fans, but clearly Liam felt it was necessary.
It sounds like he really loves Sophia and he's willing to defend their relationship to the end!
What do YOU think, HollywoodLifers? Will Liam and Sophia's relationship be drama-free?

I love how they try to make Danielle look bad trying to say she tried to get Liam to leave 1d when we all know damn to well she wouldn't. She been there from the start. So stop lying ppl. The reason y they broke up is because the hate she got from the fans and it hurt him seeing her hurt by the fans. Even Liam said that him self in a interview. So stop lying. Tbh I miss payzer so much I still ship. And ever since he been with her she changed him a lot N not in a good way either. He drinking a lot he being rube sometimes to ppl. Yeah he got both kidneys now but if he keeps drinking and partying with her and his so called friends (not 1d or Andy) then he gonna only have one kidney again or worse die from all the alcohol.

Magellan Health Services, Inc. And The Jed Foundation Raise Awareness About The Impact Of Bullying And Mental Health During Mental Health Awareness Month.
Every day, nearly 160,000 students skip school because they fear being bullied. Two out of three students have witnessed a bullying incident, and a quarter of students have been bullied themselves. The ubiquity of mobile texting and social media has allowed bullying to expand beyond the playground; more than half of youth admit to saying something mean or hurtful online. These bullying incidents all can lead to significant mental health issues, including depression, anxiety, substance abuse and, in the most tragic cases, suicide.
May is National Mental Health Awareness Month and Magellan Health Services is calling attention to mental health and bullying for its second annual Take Mental Health To Heart campaign. Magellan has partnered with The Jed Foundation, the nation's leading organization working to promote emotional health and prevent suicide among college students and young adults, to raise awareness about the mental health effects of bullying and encourage people to take responsibility for building a bully-free community. Throughout the month, Magellan and The Jed Foundation will share information about bullying from the perspective of the victim, the bully, parents and bystanders.
"Bullying cannot be tolerated anywhere, whether on the playground or at the office, nor should it be taken lightly when it occurs," said René Lerer, chairman and CEO of Magellan Health Services. "In our work with behavioral health specialists and youth everyday, we see the harmful impact bullying can have, yet it is 100 percent preventable. The 'cure' to bullying is establishing an expectation of respect and understanding in our own environment, and we're hopeful that our work on Take Mental Health To Heart with The Jed Foundation will demonstrate that we all have a responsibility to stop bullying in our respective communities."
"Bullying is everyone's problem. Our words and our actions – no matter how small – are powerful, and we need to work together in our communities to use those words and actions to show support, appreciation and respect, rather than to cause others harm," said John MacPhee, executive director of The Jed Foundation. "Promoting mental and emotional wellness is an important part of The Jed Foundation's mission, and we're delighted to be partnering with Magellan to call attention to the devastating effects of bullying and how they can be prevented."

Todd Mills (left), vice president of Elberta Crate & Box Co., Bainbridge, Ga., helps Shaun McKinstry, farm manager of JEM Farms, Belle Glade, Fla., unload crates of corn at the Sweet Corn Fiesta April 17 in West Palm Beach, Fla.
WEST PALM BEACH, Fla. — Nearing the peak of their season, Florida corn growers shucked, cooked and served to consumers crates of their commodity at the 11th Sweet Corn Fiesta.
The April 17 festival, which celebrates one of the region's leading crops, saw high participation, with corn shucking and eating contests.
"Every year this event has grown. The people just keep coming and coming," said Cindy McKinstry, event co-organizer and co-owner of JEM Farms, Belle Glade.
McKinstry said the event at the South Florida Fairgrounds' Yesteryear Village, helps promote the region's sweet corn to consumers who may not know that the county they live in grows a lot of corn.
"This is a great show," said Bryan Biederman, assistant sales manager for Pioneer Growers Co-op, Belle Glade. "It's a opportunity for us to bring the corn harvest from the field to the local community. It lets them know what we're doing in the western part of the county and brings awareness to the local community beyond the Glades about the spring corn that we produce."
The Florida Sweet Corn Exchange and the West Palm Beach County Farm Bureau sponsored the event.
Florida's sweet corn deal peaks in volume by mid-May and runs through late May.

The very first track off Machine Gun Kelly's "Black Flag" mixtape which is out now!
Quotable Lyrics
"Regrets collect like old friends
Here to relive your darkest moments
I can see no way, I can see no way
And all of the ghouls come out to play
And every demon wants his pound of flesh
But I like to keep some things to myself

CLOWN'S SECRET - An adventure game inspired by remarkable films of the silent age
Clowns Secret is a 2D adventure game based on classic movies of the silent age giving a modern touch to some of the most creative, profound and funny scenes ever created- daring to reimagine them and making them playable.
The player controls Hal & Halbert, two detectives that are investigating the reasons of the vanishment of wealthy women in the city of Tomainia. Hal is the younger one, impulsive and naive, his driven by emotions; Halbert is the older one, clever and calm, his arrogant and rather think than talk. As the player progress in the game he will find a lot of influences from old movies, most notably Mr. Charles Chaplin's work, what makes the ever changing Tomainia a city with huge diversity and with a lot of creative and humorous scenes. Through the progress of the game the player will cross a lake riding on a car, use parts of a lamp as a megaphone, fight a world champion boxer, meet a trainer of fleas, visit a house on a cliff almost falling, dress as a woman to flirt with pirates, see a man with a thin moustache play with a ball resembling the world globe, use the smallest parachute of the world and even dance a very famous dance between adventure games lovers; that and many other scenes that were written on the 100th page script.
As Clown's Secret has two characters as main characters- the scenes and puzzles could be written and divided around their distinctive personalities- expanding the possibilities of new and distinctive parts on the game and making of Clown's Secret a game that is always fresh, always funny and never boring. To be able to make an adventure game with two playable character be played in a dynamic way, we developed a gameplay system that is focused on the interaction with objects instead on the characters. When the player can interact with something in the game, an icon showing the face of the character, Hal or Halbert, and the action that is done on that object or person is shown over it- a system that makes something usually complex as an adventure game much more fast to be played and letting the players focus on what really matters: the story, the funny moments and the puzzles.
As the game is based on silent films it is all Black and White and has no text on it- in fact the dialogues are animations. Because of a design point of view we decided to put Gibberish on the characters, something that united with the animations of the dialogues bring some really laughable moments. And the music had to remember the beginning of the last century and the music of those movies, creating as a result a jazz married with silent film music - it's gorgeous!
Clown's Secret is inspired by classic movies, written for a new generation that didn't raised having contact with those films and may or may not know about them; and influence by old and new adventure games- like Monkey Island, Broken Sword and Machinarium. It's currently in full production for Windows, Mac, Linux, IOS and Android;
and has a release schedule for Q4- 2014.

A Tale of Two Brother : The Creation of Hal and Halbert
To have two controllable characters we consider to be an evolution in the notion of design of Clowns Secret. The end result was Hal and Halbert- two characters with distinctive exaggerated personalities, something that opened up tons of possibilities of new parts in the script and made the game much more fun to play.
Hal and halbert are key parts in Clowns Secret - the whole script was written around them.
We love them so much that we decided to talk about their creation, from the very first concept to how they were given names:
Hope you like it!
Luciano Rateke.
Movies started getting bad once talkies got popular. This looks interesting.
Thinking About Design- A Deeper view on the design of Clowns Secret
Design a game is something hard- one thing is play the game on the head, another one is play the real game. It takes a clear and open head to see problems in design and think about how to solve them. The design of Clown's Secret now is completely different than it was when we started working on it- we had to study, think and work truly hard in order to change it.
We loved the result!
We wanted to share this experience with you- "Thinking about design" tells about this process.
Hope you like it.

Instant buy for me. Hope to see many movies reference. And just one thing : marvelous art style ! You can thank your designer.
I want it now!! I'm loving the concept and art style and can't wait to see the finished game. It's like a breath of fresh air to see you guys making a unique game instead of match 3 or endless runner crap that we get bombarded with. Best of luck with your game and keep us posted.

Boston, 1963. Meet the charming, brawling Daley brothers. Joe is a cop whose gambling habits have dragged him down into the city's underworld. Michael is a lawyer, always the smartest man in the room. And Ricky is the youngest son, a prince of thieves whose latest heist may be his last. For the Daleys, crime is the family business—they're simply on different sides of it. Then a killer, a man who hunts women with brutal efficiency and no sign of stopping, strikes too close to the Daley home. The brothers unite to find the Strangler, a journey that leads to the darkest corners of Boston—and exposes an even deeper mystery that threatens to tear the family apart.

CORPUS CHRISTI - The suspect in the shooting of 2 Corpus Christi police officers is out of the hospital following treatment for a gunshot wound to his chest.
Travis Magill was slowly brought into the city detention center in a wheelchair. He still has a cast on his leg.
Last week, two officers went to check out a man acting odd on Congressional Drive. According to police, Magill quickly pulled out a pistol and shot both officers. Magill was hit when the officers returned fire. Other officers caught up with him down the road when he crashed a stolen police Tahoe into a utility pole.
The CCPD command staff credits Sr. Officer Amador Gonzalez with saving the life of Sr. Officer Michael Scott Goodman's. He made sure a tourniquet was in place for his colleague before tending to his own wounds.
Magill faces two counts of attempted capital murder on a peace officer and auto theft.

Right…. let me tell you about those cute chickens you see Belle feeding joyously while she sings :)
Chickens would consume my day if I allowed them. Have you ever observed them for a while? They are vicious scavengers, powerful, determined, yet not very bright. I would say it's all brute force. They arent the brightest of all creatures. Let me explain, the family here raises chickens. They used to roam as they pleased all over the place but
