How To Remove Mold From A Sonicare Toothbrush

Trend: The search for stability and meaning

I have always wanted one of the three man trying very own questions: Who are we? Where are we? Where are we going? This trend has the right occasion. Multiple options coupled with stress leads to disorientation. People today are looking for clues as intangible as in the material sense.

found in various forms of the church, in spiritual groups or sects people hold. Religions are searching for meaning in the so popular because they offer a ritual and a regulatory framework by the life going. Furthermore, they manage to give an idea of what we are and what life is for life.
celebrities to be proud of, and "fishers of men" is how Madonna and Britney Spears are the Jewish Secret Doctrine Kabbalah. Tom Cruise, John Travolta and Juliette Lewis borrow Ron Hubbard and his theory of knowledge - Scientology her voice. Richard Gere as a friend of the Dalai Lama represents the Tibetan Buddhism . Even the Catholic Church in Mel Gibson found one in Hollywood for his faith entering celebrities.

The origin can also offer support and meaning. It is researching for her own roots. It will send to know for sure where you come from. Memorials, family crests, etc. again find attention.

found less deep advice for everyday life, such as horoscopes, fortune cookies and reading maps, its source and veracity of a secondary Role-play.

far away from religion and philosophy, we observed in consumer behavior and the quest for meaning. There is talk of the power of the brand. With today's plethora of call options, the brand creates trust. It facilitates and accelerates the selection process. The defensive consumer (see Trend 4) is very picky. He is looking for brands that embody the company's philosophy in all facets and authentic act. Preference is given to brands with a long, scandal-free history, such as Nivea or Haribo.

Finally, a mundane example of the trend of the search for stability and meaning. There will be people who gather daily at 17.55 clock in front of the screens, to a series called "Forbidden Love " view. The body is already conditioned the extent that the hunger feeling begins precisely at this time. This series said people know what they do from Monday to Friday at this time. This provides stability, it makes sense?

Explain Biological Interrelationships

second Digression: swarm intelligence

"phenomenon, wherein communication within a social community of intelligent behaviors of all individuals [...] up."

This definition is found in wikipedia.de under "collective intelligence," commonly referred to as swarm intelligence. In the animal world we find this phenomenon in Ants, bees, termites, and fish. Core characteristics of a swarm are flexibility, dynamics and time-limit. The individuals state-forming animals act as independent as possible. Are you in the fulfillment of collective tasks, however, very focused.
result for the individual three principles of action:
  • Move up toward the central point of those who are in your environment.
  • Move you away if someone gets too close.
  • Move up in the general direction of your neighbors.
Since 2000 the concept of swarm intelligence in social and future research will be applied to humans. The Internet allows for collective intelligence necessary media structure. Ants communicate via pheromones, bees about the waggle dance and the man on the Internet.
A negative example for the self-organization of the swarm when people are terrorists. You work for a common cause, and each individual for themselves sometimes for years as independent as possible and the swarm of internal and external communication via the Internet.

Other examples of collective intelligence, Google and Wikipedia are; Wikipedia as a free encyclopedia on the Internet, especially so, since contributions can be created at any time or from any review.

Prof. Wippermann, Founder of the trendy offices in Hamburg, describes in an interview with the online magazine "The Present" possible consequences of swarm intelligence are formed themed, object-oriented schools - also known as communities. Personal communication is losing value. To engage in a club or a party is no longer attractive because of the purpose limitation. Using swarm intelligence can achieve personal goals more quickly, the Community objectives into the background. This is just one scenario. The full interview with Prof. Wippermann be found at http://www.diegegenwart.de/ausgabe44/wippermann.htm

The majority is smarter than the individual. This Cunning results from different countries of origin and areas of competence. A striking example is the "Who Wants to Be a Millionaire." In public surveys, the hit rate is 91% and the Jokers of the telephone, in which a man is consulted, who seemingly familiar with a topic is only 65%.
The individual is dependent on feedback, so-called social proof. At this point we have reached the purpose of trend portal and many blogs - the opinion of the clever fishing majority.

I have treated the issue as a digression, since it will have far-reaching consequences than a "traditional" socio-cultural trend. I'm looking forward to your views on topic.

The Words Of The Celtic Riddle Song

11th Trend: Bad Taste

"Take no drugs have no unprotected sex and do not be violent - leave it to me all better!" Eminem

bad guys from America, like Eminem in this country have long found imitators in Bushido and Sido masked man. All that is evil provokes, and relates to the bad taste is attributable to this trend.

Bad Taste has a magical attraction such as Marilyn Manson this year at Rock am Ring. Despite the pouring rain did not want to take people to experience the horror suspenders bearing rocker to perform live, while the "brave" REM headlining the first sign of rain the sheltering roof at the track visited.

Yet what spills over from America for there? Pamela Anderson was in September at the Haus der Kunst in Munich at the opening of the exhibition " Pam. American icon" by nude photographer Sante D'Orazio. In this exhibition she lasciviously lolling topless on artificial turf and is shown leaning only in a printed panties with a dollar sign on the wall. That sex is sold are not a new motto. Whether the end justifies the means in this case, must decide for themselves.

Then there's the comics, the bad taste bears by designer Peter Underhill. It is unusual in Teddy Bears Situations: the bear as an exhibitionist with a coat and nothing underneath, the bear in straps, the bear under the lawnmower etc.
These bears are not really in the category of "evil" to settle, as they themselves act as bad bears at most thoughtful, as Traderjob also the strange phenomena of America - my opinion.

you know shapes and appearances on the edge of good taste? If so let me know!
