I bet you didn't know I'm an art buff. I bet you didn't know I was nearly given an art scholarship in grade school. I bet you don't care. Moving on, the fact that a movie concerning one of my favorite artists of the twentieth century ever existed and I hadn't known of it until now was infuriating to say the least. Munch was one of the greatest painters to ever live, yet another tortured man who gave way to his inner demons and reflected that on the canvas. Sure, the concept of having this avant-garde film be shot as a faux-documentary set in the time of Munch's life, having interviews with his family, and having the camera man walk around them while they talk, is utterly original and rather brilliant, but Watkin's portrait of Munch is far from ever perfect.
It's extremely difficult to create a film centering on any sort of artist. Films that profile artists are hardly ever capable of providing us with insight in to these people's work and art with a balance. Either they focus too much on the work and we lose all essence of the person, or we focus too much on the melodrama and not enough on the creative process. In all of the film's running time of three and a half hours, we're given both, but both aspects sadly end up weak. The peeks in to Munch's home life are cold and un-involving with acting that is cardboard, while his art is approached with slight insight presenting us with the creative process only briefly and then having the narrator explain to us what the painting means. Meanwhile, the director's methods are surreal, yet interesting. And admittedly, it takes some getting used to until you discover what he's attempting with this method.
He poses "Edvard Munch" as a semi-documentary/film about the artist. The camera man tapes the family discussing politics and arguing, looks at Munch painting his portraits of death around him, Munch and the family are often looking towards the screen, and the narrator—who reads from Munch's diaries—explains the situations before us. Munch's life, through misery, and poverty, was also a cold life which he reflected in his paintings. He was never close to his brothers and sisters, and lost his mother to a debilitating disease when he was young. Watkin's direction is possibly the most appealing aspect of "Edvard Munch". It's shocking that no one else has ever really approached a bio-pic with this sort of semi-modern angle very much, especially in the age where reality television is so popular. Though the goal is quite noble with an honest and original attempt at profiling an artist, the end result is drawn out in to alienating elements that keep this from ever becoming the masterpiece I'd heard so much about.

I have heard both David Wilkerson and Nicky Cruz speak in reallife and they both had a such a great impact on my life. My husband and I have spent 20 years helping drug addicts and prisoners. The books and movie are awesome and to see what God has done with Teen Challenge too is awesome, so many have been set free and healed through Jesus. David will be sadly missed but we'll meet in Heaven.

Looking for some advice on carrying while carrying. I've been in the practice of EDC lately, wherever legally possible, so not my office...sadly. But After finally getting things settled on my home purchase i"m looking to start dating again.
my issue is...VA requires you to open carry anywhere that alcohol is served. So this means any restaurant i'd take someone out to...i have to show my gun. Now while I obviously need whoever I'm dating to accept the fact that I will be carrying a gun on my person whenever legal, I think most women would tend to find it LESS freaky if a guy doesn't have a gun on his hip for their first date.
How are others dealing with that? The option is be up front...and when meeting people online most likely that won't result in any follow up date...or not carry? Which based on the stabbing at a GREAT local bar last night...this is not an attractive option.

Argan Oil in Capsules
Using Culinary Argan Oil in Capsules for a Health Supplement
Which Works Best Pure Culinary Argan Oil or Capsules?
What benefits does taking pure Argan Oil in capsule form contain?
The Benefits of Argan Oil for Health
Supporting research and articles
Why Argan Oil is used for Nutritional Supplement
In Morocco Argan Oil is not used in Capsule form for a nutritional supplement. This is because an Argan Oil capsule can only contain as little as 1ml of active oil which is much less than the dose required for treating Arthritis, High Cholesterol and Heart Disease.
How Much Oil Do You Need To Take?
In Morocco about 15ml ( about 1 Tablespoon ) of pure oil is eaten or added to food when it is taken as a supplement. This is the same amount that was used in recent research studies into the effects of Argan Oil. You would need to take about 15 to 20 Capsules to get this dose so clearly taking pure oil will be easier.
Buying pure oil is also more economical than buying capsules. A 200ml bottle of Organic Culinary Argan Oil is equivalent to about 200 capsules but costs only 0.00. A typical price for 200 capsules is 0.00.
How Long Do You Need Take Argan Oil Supplments For?
Research studies discovered that benefits where detected within 3 weeks with the full course of treatment lasting, on average, 60 days. A full treatment dose requires about 450 ml of pure oil per month.
If you want try Culinary Argan Oil supplement for a long term then there is a 400 ml ( 400 capsule ) special offer. This is just 0.00 with free delivery. Click here to buy this special offer.
Learn more about supporting research into using pure Argan Oil as a supplement by reading our articles listed below.
What are the Benefits of Eating Argan Oil for Health?
There is a lot written about Argan Oil in capsules and the health benefits so is Argan Oil healthy to eat? There are two varieties Cosmetic Argan Oil and toasted Culinary Argan Oil. It is the Culinary Oil that is used for eating, cooking and as a nutritional supplement.
It is the rich bio chemical mix if nutrients that give Argan Oil its properties. It has twice the anti oxidant vitamin content of Olive Oil, is super rich in vegetable Omega fatty acids, Phytosterols, Saponins, anti inflammatory compounds and antibacterial compounds.
This is why Culinary Argan Oil, like other nut oils, is used in Morocco for cholesterol reduction, cardiovascular disease treatment, Arthritis, BMI control and weight loss. So how much culinary Argan Oil in capsules or pure liquid Argan Oil was used in research?
How many Argan Oil capsules should to used?
2×6.76fl oz Culinary Argan OilCulinary Argan Oil has a Delicious Nutty Flavour. Use 10 to 15ml per day for nutritional supplement.
13.53fl oz Argan Oil for Eating
There have been a number of studies into culinary Moroccan Argan Oil to investigate how much oil needs to be eaten and what the benefits of pure Argan Oil or Capsules are for health. As discussed above research into the use of culinary Argan oil in the Moroccan diet has revealed cholesterol reducing effects, chemo preventative effects, uses for weight loss, Diabetes, Arthritis and cardiovascular disease.
To test this health supplement researchers used about about 15 ml of pure oil for 60 days. This is the equivalent of about 15 capsules per day depending on the capsules used. For information about how eating nuts will your extend life expectancy we recommend watching the video on this page.

What active ingredients are in Argan oil and Capsules?
Both culinary and cosmetic Argan Oil are rich in these healthy nutrients ( Argan Oil contains twice the Vitamin E Anti Oxidant and GLA content of Olive Oil ) but we do not think that the tiny amours of Argan Oil in a capsule would give any noticeable benefit.
Some capsules are advertised as containing Argan powder. We have never seen this in Morocco and do not know what you would create this from. In this case we would recommend you get a certified analysis of the content of these capsules.
The main nutrients causing interest in culinary Argan Oil for use in capsules are:
Triglycerides, Sapponins
Omega 3 and 6 Essential Fatty Acids
Triterpenes, Sterols
Carotenoids, Arganine
Squalene & Phenolic Compounds, Vitamin E
Gamma Linoleic Acid – (GLA)

Life perhaps would have been different if actor Imran Khan had had a son. But with a newborn daughter, Imara Malik Khan, he's all for being a doting, possessive and indulgent father.
Tag Archive for Imran Khan
Is Imran Khan Scared Of His Baby Daughter!
Imran Khan Is Back In Business With Ileana D'Cruz
So Imran Khan is finally out of his paternity leave. Blessed with a daughter, the doting father is ready to get back on the sets and don a new character. First on his list is Saali Kuttiya which is now called Katti Batti.
A Nikhil Advani film, it also also stars Ileana D'Cruz opposite him. Now it is not known yet what is the nature of the plot, but rumours suggest it is a romantic story. It might start rolling by the end of June or first week of July.
The film apparently was on hold all this while because of Imran's paternity leave. In fact, when the tentative title Saali Kuttiya was announced, it created a lot of ruckus. It was not only unusual but also objectionable. With a name change and the hero back in the team, Nikhil seems all set to start the film.
Imran lost out on many projects in last couple of months, Milan Talkies changed hands from him to Varun Dhawan. He also stepped out of Vikramaditya Motwane's Bhavesh Joshi which went to Sidharth Malhotra. He is getting increasingly replaced by the new crop of actors and so this seems the right time to be back in business. What say people?
Imran, Avantika name daughter Imara Malik Khan
Imran Khan And Avantika Malik Christens Their Baby As Imara Malik Khan
Imran Khan And Avantika Malik who became parents to a baby girl on June 09, 2014 have named their daughter Imara Malik Khan.
"It's a Swahili name, which means strong and resolute," says a proud father Imran Khan.
Imran stated that it was Avantika, his wife, who found the name. "She was doing all the work. Initially, I was quite hesitant because I felt it sounded like Imran, and it seemed egocentric. But then it came to a point where I didn't like any other name," added Imran Khan.
Imran Khan is the newest addition to the list of Bollywood actors who have turned father recently. Imran and his wife Avantika, who got married in the year 2011, became proud parents to a baby girl who was born on June 09, 2014.
Friends close to the couple say that the baby looks like a mini Imran. Interestingly, Imran had mentioned that he'd be happy to have a baby girl. The happy father looked elated cradling his little daughter in his arms as he posed for the shutterbugs when Avantika was discharged from the hospital.
Talking about how life has changed ever since he has become a father, Imran said, "It feels different the second you see the baby. I just looked at Imara and I crumbled and fell. Had it been a boy, somewhere, I think I would've been okay. This is a father-daughter thing. I looked at her and I thought, my life is over now. All my life, I will be on my knees and running after her."
Here's wishing Imran, Avantika and Imara all the happiness.
Imran-Avantika Name Baby Imara Malik Khan
Imran Khan, who has recently turned a Father to a sweet baby girl, seems to be a whole new person. The actor's daughter has been named 'Imara Malik Khan'.
Imran can't take his eyes of his little angel and has it all sorted when it comes to her. The actor recently admitted to a popular daily that he has full experience in changing the diapers and bottle feeding already. Ask how and he states that he has already done the same for Aamir Khan's kids.
Imran Khan & Avantika Malik With Their New Born Baby
The actor, who is obsessed over his six day old daughter, has also got a camera installed in the baby room so that the actor when not with her can still keep a tab on his little one through his phone.
Looks like, Imran Khan has some amazing parenting lessons for everyone. Take a bow, now that's what we say is being an ideal dad!

PlayStation Vita
What can a Vita do?
- Back To:
- Board List

- Topic Archived
Can I download any games from the other Sony systems? I understand that it has remote play, but I don't own a PS3. Are there any other cool features that it has? I found a place selling used ones for $120, so it's got me interested. | |
It can play PS1 and PSP games if they are on PSN (and work on the Vita). If a PSP game used the face buttons for aiming, you can use the second stick to aim, which helps a lot. In theory, if you have a PS4, you can use it like the Wii U pad. Probably. In theory that was supposed to be the case with the PS3 and PSP, but Sony couldn't bother to do it for most games, though it was enabled on hacked PS3s. | |
whatever games listed as PSVita in PSN stores (PS1 and PSP games) --- PSN ID: Gogunners23 | |
PS1, PSMini, PSMobile, PSP and PS4 games. And PS3 games coming via cloud next year. --- "Honour and death go together like hotsauce and my balls" | |
MeatwadMontana posted... Of course it can play Vita games, but what else? Youtube. transfer data wirelessly like pictures while gaming xD Can multi task with Web + Youtube + full game. PS+ is a hell of a service for someone who wants to test the VITA. Some games allow you to play your own mp3 in the background while actually playing the game. Fast PS Store access compared to PS3 xD | |
As mentioned, Youtube. If you do any Youtube, I still don't see any commercials on my Vita's Youtube even after the update, unlike mobile versions. No need to click "Skip ad". So the best choice of Youtubing to me. Multi-tasking a guide or walkthrough or FAQ such as from here on GameFAQs or on a Youtube video is nice. Not a necessity, but it's highly convenient to only need one device in front of you and not reach for a computer or laptop or your phone. That last item j2zon2591 mentioned is so true. I always wish I could access the PS3 store's full content from my Vita and initiate a remote download from within the Vita's store to my PS3. That would be convenient. The PS3 store feels so sluggish compared to the Vita's store app. You can also Netflix, Facebook, and Twitter with such apps on a Vita. Just about everything can do those now, but it's still worth mentioning if you use them though. The Netflix app is a little sluggish (except during videos), but does support Close Caption if you're hearing impaired or in a loud area without good headphones or otherwise need them. Facebook app isn't great either, but if you want functionality beyond the mobile Facebook site then it's useful. Even though not every PSP game is available on the Vita's store, the number of games available is huge. If you've never played any PSP games, then you'll have a rich and huge library of games to play/buy beyond the Vita's native games. And PS1 games too. --- PSN: Jongjungbu | |

Dear Friends,
This is the first post that I have written since my arrest almost 2 years ago on Jan 23, 2013. Words cannot begin to articulate the depth and breadth of my gratitude to God, friends, family, the jury and last but not least my incredible legal team at Breen & Pugh Attorneys at Law. Todd Pugh has been an amazing attorney throughout this ordeal. I want to thank all the people who supported me throughout this difficult time. Your encouragement helped me immensely. I apologize for not writing sooner, but every time I sat down to write I was overcome with emotion. Your cards, prayers, calls and gifts have sustained me through one of the most difficult times in my life.
My marriage, friendships, family and faith were tested to the extreme. However, I can honestly say that God's presence is very real even in a post-modern high tech saturated society He has given me strength, endurance, courage and peace in the midst of great uncertainty and what looked like insurmountable odds. His truths of protection are found throughout the ancient texts and His faithfulness has been lived out through the love of my husband, children and friends who have been the source of maintaining my sanity during this ordeal.
On my bulletin board I have the following verse that guides everything I champion "Speak up for those who cannot speak up for themselves, for the rights of all who are destitute. Speak up and judge fairly; defend the rights of the poor and needy." Proverbs 31: 8-9
I can testify to the fact that there is hope and healing in the midst of injustice, pain and hardship. I can also testify to the truth that faith, hope and love are more than just an overused saying on a plaque. Instead, they are life sources that when truly lived out build bridges and help create real community. I believe that there are no wasted tears and that our pain becomes a pathway to help others live freely and love fiercely. Was it cosmic coincidence or Divine design that helped merge my past and present to bring about another story of hope just when I needed it? Six months after my arrest World Vision was on our doorstep documenting how one woman helped save my life during the height of the Vietnam War. I share this side story because it was a reminder to me that faith is more powerful than fear, we are all connected, people are worth protecting and one person can make a difference.
I am still processing the impact of all that has happened, grieving what was taken and celebrating all that is still good. Psalm 91 along with the writings of the acclaimed Buddhist monk, Thich Nhat Hanh, have been my meditative anchors that have helped me begin each day with hope that what is unseen is more powerful than what is seen. Namely, that with God nothing is impossible. True Freedom comes from within. Truth is worth defending and Justice is worth fighting for.
Live Freely, Love Fiercely

Hey all-- I just began EDCarrying yesterday and am using a MTAC holster with my G23. Though I realize it's leather and will take a bit of time to conform, I felt whenever sitting down and simply walking around it felt a little uncomfortable. Right now I have the belt clips at an odd configuration (bottom hole in the front, #2 hole from the top in the back) trying out different ones and such for feel, but I wanted to find out what works best for you?
I am likely still overly concerned about being made and would like the holster to fit comfortably (likely at 3:30 or 4) while revealing as little of the firearm as possible. As you may notice I have a CTC laser grip on the gun too, so I can't have it sit too low or the belt might hurt the laser (or something like that, I'm sure).
Any input is appreciated, thanks all!

Mapping Indic scripts is difficult as Braille has a unified script
Braille, with its raised and flat dots, is somewhat similar to the binary world of computers. A Braille letter is composed of a cell which has a maximum of six raised or flat dots. This means that you can map up to 64 characters in Braille, including the space.
For English, after accounting for 26 letters, 10 numbers and the space, you have 23 permutations left to accommodate punctuation, and diacritics.
Printing Braille texts
It is quite difficult to print Braille texts manually because of the time taken to print each character. In the beginning, Braille texts were printed using a slate and a stylus. In 1951, the Perkins Brailler, a Braille typewriter with seven keys, was invented by David Abraham. It has since evolved to include features such as audio feedback for the typist. Braille embossers, the equivalent of electronic printers, have also simplified the process producing Braille texts. While the more expensive ones can print up to 2,000 pages an hour, the humbler versions may print around 200 pages a minute. The embossing process involves pressing pins onto one side of a sheet of paper. Some of these printers can also accept typed input from a QWERTY keyboard, which, when used with suitable Braille simulators, can type in Braille. Several of these Braille simulators can be found on the Internet through a simple search.
Bharati Braille
In India, Bharati Braille has mapped Indic scripts to Braille letters. It has a unified script, which means that consonants with the same sound are mapped to the same Braille character, irrespective of the language they come from. For example, Ka in Devanagari and Tamil are mapped to the same Braille character. This means that you cannot have a bilingual text without explicitly specifying the change in language every time. Most Indic languages have more than 60 characters because of the large number of vowels, consonants and characters arising from the combinations of vowels and consonants. If we include Indic numerals, the number of characters may be more than the available number of Braille characters. This makes it difficult to map each of these characters to a unique Braille grid. Thus, the same Braille character may be used to print a letter, a number and punctuation, with the number and the punctuation having special prefixes to differentiate them from letters.
While online Braille transliterators are aplenty for English, the same is not true for Indic scripts because of the lack of sensitive research in this direction. One such transliterator to map letters in Devanagari to Braille has been started by the team of Pooja Saxena and Nirbheek Chauhan. The project was started by the duo when they realised, according to Ms. Saxena's blog, that the only Indic transliterators on the Internet were "proprietary and prohibitively expensive". The transliterator, a FOSS project, can currently convert Devanagari texts to Braille while efforts are on to transliterate texts from other Indic languages to Braille. You can contribute to this project by visiting bharati-braille.

Lee to Host Honor Choir
Friday, February 01, 2013
On Friday and Saturday Feb. 8-9 approximately 100 high school students will be on the Lee University campus to participate in the annual Honor Choir. Every member of the choir was selected by a high school director to represent their school on the collegiate stage.
The event will culminate in a performance Saturday at 3 p.m. in the Conn Center. In addition to the Honor Choir, the Lee University Choral Union, conducted by Dr. Cameron F. LaBarr, will give its own music performance. An ensemble from Lee's Opera Theatre, directed by Mr. Jimmy Frost, will also perform a scene from their upcoming production of Gilbert and Sullivan's "The Gondoliers."
The students will rehearse choral music under the direction of School of Music faculty members William Green, Cameron F. LaBarr and Loralee Songer. The students are grouped into a men and women's choir to study, rehearse and eventually perform their own musical selections, with the entire group coming together for a mixed choir experience.
Much of the students' time on campus will be spent learning and preparing their pieces during intense training sessions with the Lee faculty.
Dr. William Green is a professor of Choral Music, conducts the Lee University Chorale, and serves as Dean of the School of Music. Green is active nationally and internationally as a guest conductor, adjudicator and clinician. He has presented workshops throughout the United States, as well as in Central America and Israel, and most recently conducted Lee's Festival Choir at the 2013 Presidential Inauguration.
Dr. Cameron F. LaBarr joined the Lee faculty in fall 2011 as an assistant professor of choral music and director of Choral Union. LaBarr was recently awarded a fellowship to attend and participate in the Salzburg Global Forum for Young Cultural Leaders in Austria, selected as one of 50 attendees from a pool of candidates from around the world.
Dr. Loralee Songer, the director of Ladies of Lee, is an assistant professor of music at Lee University. Songer is active as a vocal recitalist with performances throughout the United States and abroad. She won first place at the Regional National Association of Teachers of Singing (NATS) in 2008 and 2010 and has used her extensive experience to teach at scholastic conferences across the nation.
The concert is open to the public and free of charge.

Mark Morris puts his creative twist on a 'new,' less tragic 'Romeo & Juliet'
"Romeo & Juliet, On Motifs of Shakespeare" opens July 4 at the Bard College Summerscape Festival. The evening-length work will tour to Berkeley, Calif.; London; Urbana, Ill.; Norfolk, Va.; and Lincoln Center, N.Y.; during the 2008-09 season.
How did this project come to your attention?
Simon Morrison found the manuscript and told Bard College about it. It was brought to my attention in 2006 when I was getting an honorary degree from Bard. Leon Botstein [the president of Bard] mentioned it to me. Bard is sponsoring the re-creation. Leon Botstein is conducting the American Symphony Orchestra. We have a lot of other sponsors, including my company.
What intrigued you about it?

In January, Salon published a short essay by Geneen Roth on how she came to be ripped off by Bernie Madoff. Instead of portraying herself as the innocent victim of a nefarious con man, Roth takes the opportunity to ponder not only why she trusted someone with 30 years worth of savings, but what it was that she wanted deep down that led to that mindless trust.
For those who don't know Roth, she is a teacher and writer (When Food is Love) who uses her personal experiences with compulsive overeating to help others get over the same problem. Her approach differs from that of the 12-step program, Overeaters Anonymous, in that she doesn't believe in "forbidden foods" that you avoid in the same way that addicts must avoid alcohol or drugs. Instead, she feels that the very concept of "forbidden" causes overeating (something that's been borne out by research, incidentally) and that the solution is to listen to what your body really wants and eat it, but eat it mindfully (not mindlessly as we often do) -- paying attention to how it tastes and how it makes you feel, and to stop when it's no longer satisfying.
Roth found that when she began to do this, she initially gorged on all the "bad" foods that she always craved and tried to avoid, but before long actually wanted healthier foods, and that some of the forbidden treats weren't really that tasty, much less satisfying. She also suggests looking past behavior to emotion, to consider what it is we really want when we reach for a bag of chips or cookies – and speculates that often what we want is love.
Given Roth's work, it's not surprising that she finds something deeper in her loss to Madoff than most of the "victims" who have been quoted in the media. Roth risks the pain of self-inquiry to reflect on why she chose not just Madoff, but to pile up money in the first place:
Over and over again, I've asked myself: Why didn't I secure the most basic of all things -- shelter itself? Why didn't I pay off my mortgage? And if I don't engage in blame, I see the answer clearly: because I believed in something else more -- I believed in accumulating. And when you believe in accumulating, you see what you don't have, not what you have. My relationship to money was no different from my relationship to food, to love, to fabulous sweaters: I never felt as if I had enough. I was always focused on the bite that was yet to come, not the one in my mouth. I was focused on the way my husband wasn't perfect, not the way he was. And on the sweater I saw in the window, not the one in my closet that I hadn't worn for a year.
This quote reminded me of something I've heard from many people who've traveled to Third World countries. While noting the extreme poverty, they were shocked at how happy most people seemed – smiling and friendly, faces open to strangers in a way that you rarely see in the U.S., and perhaps least of all from our most affluent citizens (pay attention to how guarded the faces of the rich tend to be!).
I've also heard people from other countries reflect on their travels in the U.S. -- saying that for all the wealth and comfort that most Americans enjoy, they don't seem happy but instead tense and driven.
Like Roth, I have a simple and unoriginal answer to this seeming paradox: While people in most of the world focus on what they have, Americans focus on what they don't have.
Think about how often your friends, family and co-workers talk about the things they still want in life, what they want to buy or achieve or do, places they want to visit, adventures they wish they'd had, qualities they wish their partner possessed or things they think he or she should do, regrets over the choices they've made in their lives and what they'd do differently now.
Think of how often you hear people around you express envy, of everyone from their neighbors and co-workers to movie stars and moguls. "I'd kill to have her figure," "Their house is to die for" and "If I could get that, I'd die happy" are strangely common turns of phrase in our society – our desire for things that we don't have is so strong that we have to invoke death itself in order to express how important they are to us!
Research into how material wealth affects happiness is ongoing and not without contradictions (this Newsweek article has a good round-up of some key data) -- but here are some of the tantalizing conclusions that researchers have come to:
Once basic needs are met and the wolf is gone from the door, having more money doesn't really make people any happier. Contrary to what most people think, happiness is not incremental, ratcheting up with every dollar you make or accumulate.
People overestimate how much material gains will affect their feelings. There is a temporary boost when you get a raise or a new car, but it passes quickly and becomes "the new normal." The good news is that people also get over bad things faster and better than they expect they will. One theory is that every individual has a "baseline" or set point of happiness that they revert to with only temporary variations.
Satisfaction with one's material status is situational. The old saying about "Keeping up with the Joneses" is rooted in a truth about human nature. People compare themselves to co-workers, neighbors, friends and family and judge what they have based on whether it's more or less than those peers. Someone making $50,000 in a neighborhood where most people make $30,000 will feel more satisfied with their salary than someone who makes $70,000 in a neighborhood where most people make $100,000 – even though the latter person is making more money. In other words, it's all relative (sometimes literally, depending on your family).
This last piece of data may be the one that best illuminates the peculiar nature of American society. For no matter where we are, or how little money we ourselves have, we are always surrounded by images of wealth, on websites and TV, and in movies, magazines and newspapers. Wealthy people are photographed, written about, talked about and all but worshipped in our country.
Even if you think you disdain wealth, you can't avoid those images and the calibration effect they have. Just as movie stars and models set new standards for beauty (and appropriate weight), the wealthy in our country set new standards in our heads for what is not just desirable, but attainable.
I've come up with a term for this: I call it the "white teeth effect." Once everyone started whitening their teeth artificially, even naturally white but untreated teeth started to look rather yellow by comparison. Pay attention when you watch movies made 20 or more years ago – even the movie stars often have teeth that look shockingly yellow to us now. But what's changed? Only our perception of not just what is "beautiful" but what is "normal."
In a poor society, by contrast, you are surrounded by people who have little, and you're also probably not inundated with media images of wealth. So not only is everyone around you in the same boat, but you aren't seeing yacht commercials everywhere you turn.
It's often said that even the poor people in America live better than much of the world. They have access to social services, food programs, community assistance and taken-for-granted services that much of the world literally dies for, such as clean and sanitary water at the turn of a tap in their homes.
Years ago, when the small, independent film Boyz in the Hood came out, it was praised as a searing portrait of the unfairness and frustrations of the urban poor in America, a prescient explanation of the anger fueling the Rodney King/L.A. riots that exploded just a year later. But when the movie was released overseas, it was met with great puzzlement in many countries. These are poor people? But, they have houses, with bedrooms and bathrooms and nice stuff like TV's and stereos, and they're well-fed and well-dressed, and they're all driving cars that they own! What country is this where these are considered "poor people" and can I go there?
Of course, Boyz is also about racism, but the desire for a better material life, the type granted to middle-class Americans, is clearly fingered as a source of frustration to the people in South Central L.A. The gangs that maim and kill the young men in the neighborhood are pursuing the same American dream that's advertised to those who rank above them in the economic food chain. Just like their middle class and upper class fellow citizens, they want the fancy cars and jewelry and other things that will tell them that they are somebody.
This aspiration is one thing that rich and poor actually share in our country. In late 2007, the New York Times ran an article about the vast sums of tech-related wealth in Silicon Valley and how making a few million dollars a year there means you feel like a nobody, because you're surrounded by people who make tens or even hundreds of millions a year, at least in stock wealth (well, they did back when this article came out).
This seemingly irrational phenomenon can be seen in any wealthy enclave, from Hollywood to NYC, but it also bites close to home – how many people do you hear around you who compare their salaries or the size of their homes to that of their co-workers or friends or siblings? How much do the people you know focus on what they don't have?
How much does each of us do this, day after day?
And what would it be like if we just stopped, and focused on what we have?
I have been both well-off and poor, and I have always said that for me the best is to be comfortable and secure, no more, no less.
Brian and David, thanks!
Lisa, thanks and as some of my elderly relatives would say, "From your lips to God's ears."
OE, I'm a little familiar with Maslow because of teaching management classes eons ago but haven't ever read him.
We have to teach our kids not just right from wrong, but thankfulness instead of self-pity.
When my daughter was five, I lost my good paying job as an x-ray tech. Years later she asked what happened. Now grown, she says she is glad that she grew up poor because she did not get into the consumerism in the US. She is happiest in a canoe on a river or camping in the mountains. And she will be far more ready to weather any economic storms to come.
Thanks for this very much.
And those poverty stricken countries you speak of? I have lived in them and know from my own experience that what you say is true. As much as I enjoy my creature comforts, they do not make me MORE or LESS happy. The people around me and the QUALITY of love and love for life most certainly do. This should be required reading. Brilliant. If I had a hat on, I would be taking it off to you in respect. With apologies for the ramble, but your words resonate with me. Deeply. Very. Highly. Rated.
Greg, I think parental influence is huge. My parents were young adults during the Great Depression and boy, did they teach us to focus on our good fortune (and to save money!). and they had the real life experiences to tell us about and make us believe them.
Emma, thanks for the book rec! It's interesting that happiness is such a hot topic for books in North America these past several years (as is the fact that depression diagnoses have been skyrocketing for a decade or more) when we're so affluent.
O'Steph, that's so cool about your daughter! I have that thought about how I started in adult life, too -- it was years before I made more than just subsistence money and I actually think that was a good thing. I know how to live on very little - and to be happy with it.
Cartouche, my goodness! I don't even know how to respond to your extravagant praise. To quote the Cowardly Lion, "Shucks, folks, I'm blushin'." Thank you so much and I'm thrilled to have such a strong and thoughtful response from a strong and thoughtful woman!
Ben, I didn't feel sympathy for Roth until I read her essay. (I haven't felt sympathy for Madoff's victims in general.) I think the fact that she not only takes responsibility but uses the event to think about her own shortcomings is rare and impressive.
Palindrome, you and me both!! (I write to tell myself these things, after all.)
From the old Madison Avenue to Wall Street, to our celebrity-crazed culture our values have been trampled and manipulated to want more and bigger and better and richer and obscene accumulation.
Yet each of us knows, in our heart of hearts, that it's really all about the comfort zone, not the backstage pass or the private jet. We need to start thinking that way again.
If you want to slam greed, fine, I'm right there with you. But let's get serious. Let's start talking about deconstructing a system that rewards it - which means eliminating it, not the folly of "regulating" it. Asking me to be happy under Pharaoh's whip, well, that's a just a threat as far as I'm concerned.
Tarheel, I agree we're going to have to grapple with this -- and to me, it's the huge upside of the economic crisis. We need to confront our materialism and where it's led us. But it ain't going to be pretty, and a lot of innocent and poor people are already suffering because of all that's happened.
PBS ran an excellent series on happiness awhile back that reached a similar conclusion about the nature of our society. Turns out the same social and economic mobility that has opened up so many possibilities to us may be the very thing that also makes us unhappy! In other parts of the world where there are less opportunities for personal advancement, people are more accepting of their lot in life, while here in America, where anyone can become rich or famous, at least theoretically, it seems more like a personal failing when we're not one of the lucky ones. Even for those of us who feel we are above comparing cars, say, or flat screen TVs, we measure ourselves against others in a myriad of ways day in and day out -- it's built right into our nature. Heck, I'm already thinking "this post is so well done, why didn't I write it?" You've gotta laugh. I guess.
You know, I have tried to figure out why this post, which is nearly 3 months old, is getting so many hits in the past week or so - -I haven't found it referenced or linked anywhere on the web, but my search capabilities aren't the best. If anyone reads this and has any ideas, let me know!
The image of accumulation for its own sake reminds me of a scene in the book, The Little Prince, in which the Little Prince visits a planet where the sole inhabitor just sits at his desk counting and guarding his money...silly, absurd, purposeless.

Review: Sound like your favorite villain with Bane Talk Voice Changer BTVC
Hear and say all of your favorite Bane quotes from "The Dark Knight Rises" with the help of Bane Talk Voice Changer BTVC.
Bane Talk Voice Changer BTVC alters your voice to sound like the famous villain from "The Dark Knight Rises," making it fun if you are a devoted fan. Don't expect to sound exactly like him, though, as the app doesn't capture the character's signature nasal delivery unless that's how you talk into it, which is disappointing. It does make up for it with some prerecorded Bane noises and quotes.
Even though it can't change your voice in real time, Bane Talk Voice Changer BTVC can record up to 20 seconds of speech and change it. The app gets Bane's robotic gravel right, but it doesn't give your voice that nasal inflection for which Bane has become well-known. Instead, your voice ends up sounding more like Darth Vader. You can adjust the app to change the inflection, but most people will have to already do a good Bane impression to get the most of the app. The app does let you listen to a random Bane quote or Bane's bizarre meow grunt on demand, though. Setting up the app means agreeing to an obnoxious ad agreement and swiping through a 15-page Powerpoint-esque tutorial. Don't be surprised if you see parts of the tutorial popping up occasionally when you're using the app.
Bane Talk Voice Changer BTVC is not a home run voice-changing app on its own, but it doubles as a soundboard, which adds to its usefulness. Though it could be better executed, this application is most likely the best Bane-themed voice switcher you can currently find on Android. That makes it almost a must-download for big Bane fans.

We've all come across late night posts that are maybe not 100% tasteful, maybe some of are even guilty of this.
A couple of years ago Google added an optional feature to their Gmail service that wouldn't allow you to send an email late at night until you'd answered a couple of maths questions, thus potentially saving you from sending ill advised emails to your boss whilst under the influence.
Maybe FE could add something like that to the Forums to save some of our members from themselves...

"With any debate that has freedom to express the facts, invariably the people that have a minority view will be shown for the weakness of their argument.So why stifle a debate when the good guys (majority) will always win?"
Because by the time the good guys win the harm may already have been done.

"Or because it is not PC to allow the truth/facts to be told!"
It's perfectly OK for facts to be stated and the truth to be told, I've never said it was otherwise.
What isn't OK is when someone posts opinions and claims that they are fact, or when people take factual evidence and attempt to contort it to fit their preconceptions.
Race oriented discussions - for I assume that's what you meant - are sensitive at the best of times, but when they take place on a public access web forum people like me need to be particularly careful to ensure that nobody crosses the line. If I think it is crossed at any point I'll take action to rectify the situation.

I have a responsibility to ensure that we don't break the law, or allow people like you to do it.
Point out to me please, which statements I have made that break the law?
As for the rest of it, your lengthy diatribe directed towards me is no more than I anticipated. (and you accuse me of paranoia!)
However, that is the way things are and I guess that I either have to like it or lump it?
So, until the next time!

Lengthy diatribe, what lengthy diatribe? I simply responded to the points you made in your post. I suggest you look up the meaning of the word 'diatribe' and then review the paranoia situation.
I'm not pointing out any statements of yours that break the law because I didn't say there were any - you've invented that, as you seem to invent so many other things. What I actually said was that it was my job to stop you from doing it, and - so far - I have.

I would be too if i was a LAL fan LOL Definitely at least an interview, but i'm not disappointed with Curry. Now if only we could pry him away from BOS somehow and make him head assistant . . .
Now that is an interesting thought, but but he will not leave for another assistant's job. He and Doc might be the best combo coach in the league ...holding the Lakers to 36 points in the second after giving up 35 in the first qtr was a remarkable within itself. I like Doc's pre game, in game and post game comments "we are the better team, so just play like it" The Bulls should have held out too instead of going with Del negro. The Mavs still have an opening right??? He may wind up there if Cuban offers him the world and the C's let him interview/go.
They definately compliment each other. What Doc lacks in know how/adjustments Thibbodeou brings, and Doc's got the motivational thing down to a T. His contract situation was only for a year IIRC, but it's just wishful thinking. Mav's hired Rick Carlisle.
Oh yeah, I forgot about that hire.. hey you and I should have gone in the chat room earlier.., Kim was in there looking for conversation.
Phil's magic ran out. No he couldn't make players with half-skill sets like Turiat, Shasha, Farmar, Odom, etc. into champions. The fact that they are there shows how far Jackson is above his coaching peers and how far our staff (plural) was from mixing a championship blend. You can't give a team Garnett, Posey, and Allen, let them keep Pierce and not expect big trouble. The league went down to them--not surprisingly. The bar has been raised at least for another year until the big three show age. Joe has to get to work... We may have been the second best team in the league but we will not go forward without a change in the starting unit.
Yea, i saw that. I went into the chat once too and was the only one there LOL. Definitely next game, although i don't know when that is.
Pistons could have been in the Finals if not for laying an egg in Game 3 and choking away Game 6. What a shame. This is atleast 1 Championship they could and should have one.
I'm kind of expecting Boston to be the next fat-cat Detroit Pistons. We'll beat them in the ECF in six. Whipping smiley unrelated.
Alas, and it only took the Celts one quarter to make it all worthless. I was with you though, sitting there at the end of the first half thinking that there was no way Boston can win if they allow the Lakers to score 58 points in a half. We were right too, just didn't anticipate them only scoring 33 in the second half. No doubt the Celts can play some D, but they can score too, putting up 57 of their own in the second half. KG is being KG. Allen played all 48, shot over 50%, had nine boards, some assists and steals, and only one turnover. But, like against the Pistons, it was Pierce making the difference. Who could imagine that one day an NBA coach would look at his bench and say, "hey boys, we need to slow Kobe down this half. Pierce, you get on him and take him out of the game". It's his transformation that is making the Celtics what they are. Sure, some of KG must have rubbed off on him, but he still had to do it, all while playing on a bad wheel. Last night was the Lakers chance to make it a series and Pierce said no. He's the guy who must be thinking, sure, bring these guys in, but this is still my team and I'm going to be the one leading it. I for one didn't think he had it in him. I stand corrected. MVP when it matters.
Amazingly astute analysis of the series. SportsPickle.com - Bird, Magic Scoreless So Far in NBA Finals
Looks like Phil Jackson is another has-been coach who can go sit down next to Pop. Like the way he got a 24 point lead and then promptly blew it. I wonder if his players pulled the "Mutiny" ploy like Sheed and Billups did in game 6..........Our starters need to goooooooooo...
Notice how in crunch time, KG went right into the paint and attacked Gasol. Sheed should just watch a tape of the last 2 minutes of that game over and over. Shooting is cool too, but there are times when you need your big man to play like one.
I remember laughing my butt of when we had the 4 all stars a few years back and it was pierce that was paired with them on the court and he made mention of it to the effect that he was a piston for the day? or something like that... and saying you don't know the concept of det defense.... I take it back... with some real talent around him... he's a real good talent.... (wow i hated typing that)
It is tough. I'd written him off as a typical cash the checks and try not to worry too much kind of player. But to be fair, it might have been tough to get highly motivated with Fatoine as your running buddy.
And they got Posey for pratically nothing... He's a man with ring that still hungry for another...he may be a Robert Horry type?? Somebody check to see if sign a one year deal...maybe we can sign him this summer to replace that arvis bum..plus he can play D!!
And he's a better 3 point shooter than Hayes which is supposed to be his specialty. I'm getting sick watching the Finals. Why can't DET get there?
Game six comments Did anybody catch Kobe' post game comments...we pissed in the bed and the spot was so big, we could not even cover it with a big towel Trevor Ariza playing like a young allstar ..(just like Lee said he could )in the first half, but literally being nailed to the bench in the second half. Lamar Odom starting off the game 7 for 7 and then sitting on the bench for too long and not getting back in rhythm Ray Allen waiving off the screen in the end of the game and them blowing by both Sasha and Gasoft for the game clinching layup...and playing all 48 mins.. Did anyone see Sasha V...swinging and cursing at someone at the end of the game while he was sitting on the bench?? Obviously his emotions have got the best of him Laker radio guys are now saying that the conspiracy is in...this is Kobe's year...he wins the MVP, the gold medal and he leads the Lakers back with 3 wins to make the unbelievable come history making comeback...
Guys, JUST STOP IT Do not make me interested in this series or there will be hell to pay. (just kidding, the Loch Ness Monster couldn't make this series interesting for me)

Pulis hails defensive strength
01 Feb 2009 - 10:18:58
Stoke City boss Tony Pulis hailed his resilient defence after they kept Manchester City at bay in Saturday's 1-0 victory at the Britannia Stadium.
The Potters survived the first-half dismissal of Rory Delap to claim the points courtesy of a 45th minute goal from recent signing James Beattie.
"We showed tremendous resilience throughout, but in the second half we were outstanding," claimed Pulis.
"We work hard on our defending. We do a tremendous amount of work with our defensive eight against 11 in training because we know we will constantly be up against it against very, very good teams.
"I tell them, it's life, this is what you are going to have to do. You have to stick in there when we are put under pressure like that by very good players."
Meanwhile, Pulis had no complaints about Delap's red card, but hit out at the referee for failing to spot an earlier infringement.
Delap saw red for kicking the ball at Shaun Wright-Phillips in the 38th minute, just moments after the City winger had felled Matthew Etherington.
"As for the sending-off, I have no complaints about the decision because Rory should not have done what he did," admitted Pulis.
"But I am desperately disappointed with the decision seconds earlier not to penalise Wright-Phillips for his tackle on Etherington.
"He slid in and got nowhere near the ball. The decision not to penalise that was very poor, but I cannot condone what Rory did."
