According to Janet Polivy and Peter Herman, at University of Toronto, many people fail in reaching their personal-development goals because they have unrealistic expectations about the speed, amount, ease, and consequences of attempts at self-change—a phenomenon they call “false hope syndrome.”

According to their theory, first, people are motivated to adopt a difficult, or even impossible, personal growth goal (e.g., “I want to be thin”). After some initial progress, they ultimately don’t reach it. But after failing, they interpret their failure in a way that makes it seem like it wasn’t inevitable; for instance, the failure was a result of just not working hard enough. So they convince themselves that with a few minor adjustments, they can still achieve success. Finally, with renewed determination, but with only minor changes to their plan or their expectations about the rate of change, they set out again, propelled by their hope for the future, only to once again be disappointed. This cycle can continue forever.

The first step to making real, lasting personality adjustments, then, it seems, is to be critical of any self-development program that touts instant, or even radical, change. Just as it takes many years to develop patterns of thoughts, feelings, and behaviors, it will take some time—perhaps many years—to alter them. But the good news is that change is possible.

Letter to the New York Times: New Palestine Party: Visit of Menachem Begin and Aims of Political Movement Discussed To the Editors of the New York Times: Among the most disturbing political phenomena of our times is the emergence in the newly created state of Israel of the “Freedom Party” (Tnuat Haherut), a political party closely akin in its organization, methods, political philosophy and social appeal to the Nazi and Fascist parties. It was formed out of the membership and following of the former Irgun Zvai Leumi, a terrorist, right-wing, chauvinist organization in Palestine. The current visit of Menachem Begin, leader of this party, to the United States is obviously calculated to give the impression of American support for his party in the coming Israeli elections, and to cement political ties with conservative Zionist elements in the United States. Several Americans of national repute have lent their names to welcome his visit. It is inconceivable that those who oppose fascism throughout the world, if correctly informed as to Mr. Begin’s political record and perspectives, could add their names and support to the movement he represents. Before irreparable damage is done by way of financial contributions, public manifestations in Begin’s behalf, and the creation in Palestine of the impression that a large segment of America supports Fascist elements in Israel, the American public must be informed as to the record and objectives of Mr. Begin and his movement. The public avowals of Begin’s party are no guide whatever to its actual character. Today they speak of freedom, democracy and anti-imperialism, whereas until recently they openly preached the doctrine of the Fascist state. It is in its actions that the terrorist party betrays its real character; from its past actions we can judge what it may be expected to do in the future. (...) Discrepancies Seen The discrepancies between the bold claims now being made by Begin and his party, and their record of past performance in Palestine bear the imprint of no ordinary political party. This is the unmistakable stamp of a Fascist party for whom terrorism (against Jews, Arabs, and British alike), and misrepresentation are means, and a “Leader State” is the goal. In the light of the foregoing considerations, it is imperative that the truth about Mr. Begin and his movement be made known in this country. It is all the more tragic that the top leadership of American Zionism has refused to campaign against Begin’s efforts, or even to expose to its own constituents the dangers to Israel from support to Begin. The undersigned therefore take this means of publicly presenting a few salient facts concerning Begin and his party; and of urging all concerned not to support this latest manifestation of fascism.

Jean Harlow and Marie Dressler in Dinner at Eight (George Cukor, 1933)

Cast: Marie Dressler, John Barrymore, Wallace Beery, Jean Harlow, Lionel Barrymore, Lee Tracy, Edmund Lowe, Billie Burke, Madge Evans, Jean Hersholt. Screenplay: Frances Marion, Herman J. Mankiewicz, based on a play by George S. Kaufman and Edna Ferber. Cinematography: William H. Daniels. Art direction: Hobe Erwin, Fredric Hope. Film editing: Ben Lewis. Music: William Axt. 

It has always struck me as odd that Grand Hotel (Edmund Goulding, 1932) won the 1931-32 best picture Oscar, when Dinner at Eight, a similarly constructed all-star affair, was shut out of the nominations for the 1932-33 awards. Dinner at Eight is much the better picture, with a tighter, wittier script (by Frances Marion and Herman J. Mankiewicz, with additional dialogue by Donald Ogden Stewart) and a cast that includes three of the Grand Hotel stars: John Barrymore, Lionel Barrymore, and Jean Hersholt. Granted, it doesn't have Greta Garbo and Joan Crawford, but it has Jean Harlow and Marie Dressler at their best, and a director who knows how to keep things perking. (Cukor was, at least, nominated for Little Women instead.) It also has one of the great concluding scenes in movies, when everyone goes in to dinner and Kitty (Harlow) tells Carlotta (Dressler) that she's been reading a book, bringing the formidable bulk of Dressler to a lurching halt. (You've seen it a dozen times in clip shows of great movie moments. If not, go watch the movie.) Granted, too, that Dinner at Eight is not quite sure whether it's a comic melodrama or a melodramatic comedy, dealing as it does with the effects of the Depression on the rich and famous, with marital infidelity and suicide (both of them in ways that the Production Code would soon preclude -- as it would Harlow's barely there Adrian gowns). And there's some over-the-top hamming from both Barrymores. In fact, the performances in general are pitched a little too high, a sign that Cukor hadn't quite yet left his career as a stage director behind and discovered that a little less can be a lot more in movies. Nevertheless, it's a more-than-tolerable movie, and a damn sight better than the year's best picture winner, the almost unwatchable Cavalcade (Frank Lloyd).

Pourquoi les USA soutiennent-ils Israhell ?

Pourquoi Albert Einstein a-t-il dénoncé Israhell dans sa lettre au New York Times le 4 déc. 1948 ?

« Aux rédacteurs du New York Times :

L'un des phénomènes politiques les plus inquiétants de notre époque est l'émergence dans l'État d'Israël nouvellement créé du "Parti de la liberté" (Tnuat Haherut), un parti politique étroitement apparenté dans son organisation, ses méthodes, sa philosophie politique et son attrait social aux partis nazi et fasciste.

Il a été formé à partir des membres et des adeptes de l'ancien Irgun Zvai Leumi, une organisation terroriste, de droite et chauvine en Palestine. (…)

Un exemple choquant a été leur comportement dans le village arabe de Deir Yassin. Ce village, au large des routes principales et entouré de terres juives, n'avait pas pris part à la guerre et avait même combattu des bandes arabes qui voulaient utiliser le village comme base.

Le 9 avril (NYT), des bandes terroristes ont attaqué ce village paisible, qui n'était pas un objectif militaire dans les combats, ont tué la plupart de ses habitants : 240 hommes, femmes et enfants et ont gardé quelques-uns en vie pour parader en tant que captifs dans les rues de Jérusalem.

La majeure partie de la communauté juive a été horrifiée par l'acte, et l'Agence juive a envoyé un télégramme d'excuses au roi Abdallah de Transjordanie.

Mais les terroristes, loin d'avoir honte de leur acte, étaient fiers de ce massacre, l'ont largement rendu public et ont invité tous les correspondants étrangers présents dans le pays à voir les cadavres en tas et les ravages généraux à Deir Yassin. (...)

Les divergences entre les affirmations audacieuses actuellement faites par Begin et son parti, et leur bilan de performance passée en Palestine ne portent l'empreinte d'aucun parti politique ordinaire. C'est le cachet indubitable d'un parti fasciste pour qui le terrorisme (contre les Juifs, les Arabes et les Britanniques) et la fausse représentation sont des moyens, et un "État leader" est l'objectif. (…)

Les soussignés prennent donc ce moyen de présenter publiquement quelques faits saillants concernant Begin et son parti ; et d'exhorter toutes les personnes concernées à ne pas soutenir cette dernière manifestation du fascisme.

The Weekly Gravy #22

Well, that was a hell of a week, no? Gonna be feeling the effects of that for a while. I didn’t get a ton of movies watched this week, although less because of the news and more because I was out of town over the weekend and working most of yesterday. So I only have two major reviews this time, but they’re both pretty important films for this point in time—and they’re both really good! And we…
