How the Year of the Woman Actually Set Women Back In the past few weeks, Sarah Palin has been variously described as a diva who engaged in paperwork-throwing tantrums, a shopaholic who spent $150,000 on clothing, a seductress who provocatively welcomed staffers while wearing only a towel, and a “whack-job”—contemporary code for hysteric. Worse, she was accused by a suspiciously gleeful Fox News reporter named Carl Cameron of not knowing Africa was a continent, of being unable to name the members of NAFTA, indeed of being unable to name the countries of North America at all. (“But she can be tutored,” Bill O’Reilly told Cameron, as though speaking of a small child.) More significant than the dubious origins of these leaks, or the fact that the campaign that cried “sexism” at every criticism of its vice-presidential nominee was engaging in its own misogynistic warfare, is the fact that all of the allegations were so believable. It’s hard to get too worked up on Palin’s behalf, of course; she was complicit in her crucifixion.

Journal of Experimental Social Psychology - Don't you know that you want to trust me? Subliminal goal priming and persuasion Abstract We investigated the effect of goal priming on the processing of a persuasive message. Before reading a persuasive message about tap water consumption, participants were subliminally primed (or not) with the goal “to trust”. Research highlights ► Subliminal priming of the goal “to trust” enhanced the persuasiveness of a subsequently displayed message. ► Participants primed with the goal of trusting evaluated more positively the message and its source. ► Primed participants also expressed more behavioral intentions in line with the message. ► The goal “to trust” is a general goal that can influence information processing and persuasion.

Buying a Car | Gradspot.com Unless you live in a public transportation-friendly city, having a whip could be the only thing that saves you from losing your job and spending your Saturday nights stuck at home watching Skinemax.

The monthly payment should not exceed 12-15% of your after-tax income. Use this calculator to figure out how much car you can afford. Narrow down the field by examining your needs (good gas mileage, 4W drive) versus your wants (DVD player, captain's seats).

Volkswagen Jetta Few small cars have the following of the Volkswagen Jetta, one of the company's best-selling models in the United States. The name, says VW, refers to the Atlantic jetstream, "combined with the luxury and power of a modern jetliner." For much of the Jetta's recent history, this small sedan and wagon has appealed to buyers with its upscale design and strong turbocharged engines. The latest Jetta steps away from this approach somewhat -- it's now cheaper but less distinctive -- but new or used, the Jetta should be a solid pick. Current Volkswagen Jetta The Volkswagen Jetta is VW's more affordable sedan. There are five trim levels available: base, S, SE, SEL and TDI. Besides the engine, these upper trims have access to more standard and optional features like heated front seats, Bluetooth and an iPod interface. In reviews, we haven't been overly impressed with the current VW Jetta. Used Volkswagen Jetta Models The current, sixth-generation Jetta debuted for 2011.

Health - Hans Villarica - Study: The Objectification of Women Is a Real, Measurable Phenomenon Both male and female subjects in a recent experiment perceived near-naked men in sexualized ads as human beings, but could only see attractive women as objects. PROBLEM: Women's bare bodies are on display in billboards, movie posters, and many other kinds of ads. Though plenty of studies have looked at the ramifications of this pervasive sexual objectification, it's unclear if we see near-naked people as human beings or if we really do view them as mere objects. METHODOLOGY: Researchers led by Philippe Bernard presented participants pictures of men and women in sexualized poses, wearing a swimsuit or underwear, one by one on a computer screen. RESULTS: The male and female subjects matched the photos similarly. CONCLUSION: People objectify women in sexualized photos, but not men. SOURCE: The full study, "Integrating Sexual Objectification With Object Versus Person Recognition: The Sexualized-Body-Inversion Hypothesis," is published in the journal Psychological Science.

The real ‘Linsanity’ has a dark past — and a devious future | Shutdown Corner (Getty Images) The alleged "Worldwide Leader In Sports" woke up Saturday morning, only to find that it needed to wash an entire farmhouse full of eggs off its big, dumb face. ESPN's epic and well-discussed faux pas -- putting a "Chink in the Armor" headline on a story about New York Knicks point guard Jeremy Lin -- was an embarrassment of fairly colossal proportions, especially since the network had spent most of its previous two weeks living off the name of the Asian-American basketball player who had been on quite the impressive run. ESPN's Saturday apology wasn't rehearsed, but it sure read as if it was. Last night, ESPN.com's mobile web site posted an offensive headline referencing Jeremy Lin at 2:30 am ET. The headline was removed at 3:05 am ET. To end that statement, ESPN's Kevin Ota said this: We again apologize, especially to Mr. The real problem, of course, isn't that ESPN made a bunch of stupid remarks. Some lucky lady in NYC is gonna feel a couple inches of pain tonight. Yikes.
