White Hair
One day a little girl was sitting and watching her mother do the dishes at the kitchen sink. She suddenly noticed that her mother had several strands of white hair sticking out in contrast on her brunette head. She looked at her mother and inquisitively asked, "Why are some of your hairs white, Mom?"
Her mother replied, "Well, every time that you do something wrong and make me cry or unhappy, one of my hairs turns white."
The little girl thought about this revelation for a while and then said, "Momma, how come ALL of grandma's hairs are white?"

We’re all time-deprived; it can be daunting to have to manage work, family, and the “spare” time we spend on the necessary evil we call networking. But networking doesn’t have to be so time-consuming. If you’re like most people, you have built your network haphazardly, connecting with anyone who will communicate with you. You probably have a hard time saying no to people. And as a result, people you barely know are probably making demands on your time and, like a true mensch, you may be accommodating them. But your undiscerning generosity may be self-defeating: by giving your time to fifty people rather than, say, five, you are making far less of an impact in the world than the sheer volume of your network would have you think.

DNA from Stone Age ‘chewing gum’ tells an incredible story

For the first time, scientists used 5,700-year-old saliva to sequence the complete human genome of an ancient hunter gatherer, as well as the world of microbes that lived inside her.

Are You a Narcissist? Identifying and Understanding Narcissism

Narcissism should not be confused with high self-esteem. Narcissists may have an inflated sense of self-importance or a heightened desire for attention, but that doesn’t mean they really feel good about themselves deep down.

Do they have an exaggerated sense of self-importance? Do they expect recognition or praise even when they haven’t earned it? Do they exaggerate their accomplishments? Do they have a sense of entitlement? Expect special favors? Feel envious of others? Act arrogant?

All of these traits are listed among the criteria for narcissistic personality disorder as it’s defined by the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (DSM-5

همیشه حرف های مفت( زر مفت) فراوانی در اطراف ما وجود داشته است و هم اکنون نیز وجود دارد

بیست(سی) سال پیش یک فیلسوف دانشگاه ییل سخنانی ایراد کرد که علیرغم عنوان غیرمعمولش چندان مورد توجه قرار نگرفت، سخنرانی ای با عنوان «درباره حرف مفت» . سال گذشته این سخنرانی در قالب کتابی ۶۷ صفحه ای با همین نام انتشار یافت و اما این بار اقبال فراوانی به آن شد در رده یکی از پرفروش کتاب های فلسفی در دنیای انگلیسی زبان قرار گرفت و همچنان نیز پرفروش باقی مانده است و نویسنده ۷۵ ساله آن «هری فرانکفورت» - استاد فلسفه دانشگاه- در حد یک مرشد معنوی مورد استقبال قرار گرفته است. اما چرا چنین شد؟
تصاویر ناسازگاری وجود دارند که بعضی از مردم نمی توانند در برابر گیرایی آن مقاومت کنند. مثلاً دیدن راهبه ای که در جامه رسمی اش دارد می رقصد آنچنان که در فیلم «خواهر اکت» با نقش آفرینی ووپی گلدبرگ می بینیم.
ما به خاطر آن که چنین رخدادهایی به طور معمول رخ نمی دهند به سوی آنها جذب نمی شویم، بلکه آنها به این خاطر توجه ما را جلب می کنند، که «نباید رخ بدهند».
بنابر این هنگامی که یک استاد هفتاد و هشت ساله فلسفه کتابی منتشر کند با نام «درباره حرف مفت» و کتاب در عرض تنها چند ماه به چاپ دهم برسد، شاید نباید خیلی هم تعجب کنیم.
هری فرانکفورت استاد ممتاز بازنشسته دانشگاه پرینستون نویسنده کتاب می گوید: «مردم از تصور این که یک استاد دانشگاه های نخبه آمریکا از چنین زبانی استفاده کند کیف می کنند... نمی توانم بگویم که استقبال شدید از کتاب غافلگیرم نکرد... واقعاً شگفت زده شدم.»
فرانکفورت ۷۵ ساله حق دارد که شگفت زده باشد. هر چقدر هم که اکنون رفتارهای ما بچگانه و بی معنی باشد، خیلی بی معنی تر از بیست (سی) سال پیش نیست که این متن برای اولین بار برای ایراد به عنوان سخنرانی نوشته شد.
