Ponerology and psychopathy
Ponerology (see ponerology and Political Ponerology) is the scientific study of evil and its genesis, and its most important finding is that psychopaths play a main role in causing the suffering and inhumanity seen in the world at present and throughout history. Psychopaths (see psychopathy) are born without conscience and lack the ability to ever develop one. They are completely unable to empathize. Often charming and convincing, they act as intraspecies predators – preying on others in the interest of their own greed for power, status, money, and pleasure.
The field of ponerology has its roots in mid-20th century Eastern European clinical psychology. As such, its terminology sometimes differs from the modern, mainstream terminology of psychopathology and psychiatry.
- See psychopathy (ponerology) for more information
Unlike the typical Hollywood portrayal, psychopaths are not necessarily serial killers, nor do they necessarily even do something for which they can be thrown into prison. With their ruthlessness and talent for manipulation, the more 'successful' of psychopaths easily climb the societal ladders of business, politics, religion, etc. – generally at great cost to others throughout their sphere of influence. In our present world, psychopaths have formed a pathocracy – rule by a pathological minority – and the overall state of the world, including politics, reflects this.
This phenomenon is nothing new – it seems to be a repeating pattern throughout human history. Like a parasite, a psychopathic minority can feed off of the resources of others as long it doesn't grow too large: as long as the host population survives, it is a successful evolutionary strategy. While civilizations repeatedly rise and fall under the influence of psychopaths, humanity lives on, and so do the pathological few who immediately set out to rebuild their power over others whenever the existing structure crumbles.
Ponerology distinguishes between several types of genetically inherited psychopathy; essential psychopathy corresponds to the modern definition of psychopathy, while other types have somewhat different characteristics. All types involve a deficiency of conscience and empathy, and due to their particular deformed ways of psychologically relating to others, exert a destructive influence.
- See characteropathy for more information
Ponerology also studies other types of (in more mainstream terminology) personality disorders, and their effects on others including their role in the genesis of evil.
- See pathocracy for more information.
Pathocracy means rule by a pathological minority – ultimately, psychopaths take the top positions in such a system. The Western world has turned into a pathocracy on the largest scale – with a center of power in the USA and some of its most closely allied nations, the hold of which has spread around the world through 'globalization'. This system inflicts great suffering worldwide in the interest of the greed of the unscrupulous few.
The overall result, in modern history, of the immense influence of psychopaths on the state of the world – as observable all around us – is described in the politics and pathocracy series of articles.

Support World Humanitarian Day Through Mobile
Today, August 19, is the inaugural World Humanitarian Day, which recognizes all humanitarian personnel who have worked to assist people affected by emergencies and those who have lost their lives in the cause of duty. The organizations involved include partner UN agencies, the Red Cross and Red Crescent Movement, and numerous intergovernmental and nongovernmental organizationsAccording to the UNHCR, Last year 260 humanitarian aid workers were killed, kidnapped or seriously injured in attacks, the highest yearly toll on record. The average number of attacks in the last three years has been three times the level of the previous nine years.
Some key messages provided by the UN state that while much has been achieved, the challenges faced by many millions of people around the world are still formidable, and the need for principled and effective humanitarian action is greater than ever.
Humanitarian needs are growing faster than our ability to deal with them. Long-running and intractable conflicts are still exacting an unconscionable toll on civilians. Natural hazards are becoming increasingly severe and frequent. The international humanitarian community is facing new threats generated by the combined effects of global mega-trends: climate change, chronic poverty, the food and financial crises, water and energy scarcity, migration, population growth, urbanisation, pandemics.
Those who support the humanitarian cause can help the charities below by donating $5 through their mobile phone-
UNHCR- The UN Refugee Agency: Text SWAT to 20222 to give $5
UNICEF- The United Nations Children's Fund: Text ZEROto 864233 (UNICEF) to give $5
These mobile donation campaigns are powered by mGive, with 100% of the donation funds passed to the organization.

Spend every freaking hour building the future; a short intro to Plus Pool
When something's broken, you fix it. In 2011, three friends--Archie Coates, Jeff Franklin and Dong-ping Wong--had an idea: build a floating pool in the Hudson River.
This was the inception of Plus Pool, a floating public pool in the Hudson River that purifies river water. They did their research came up with a proposal and set it loose--the world responded. After a few days on Facebook, their plan was picked up by several online news publications and was shared many times. The demand was there; people wanted it to happen.
What it takes to execute
But what pushes a project like this? Such endeavors do not begin and end with an idea. According to Archie, designing the pool took only about four weeks. the majority of the project has been spent working through how to exactly install it..The skills required for completing are different from those required to design the pool itself. Much time is spent navigating stakeholders, fundraising, permitting… the list goes on. To Archie, this has been a super exciting challenge.
In NYC the current permitting system has two classifications: swimming pool (chlorinated) and bathing beach (free flowing). Getting approval takes time and relationships. Ultimately, the people who grant permits want projects like this to happen, but they need to make sure it's safe. For the past six years of the project, Archie and his team have been engaging government entities (primarily the Departments of Health and Environmental Conservation) that are responsible giving permits. What's cool, is these groups have actually become allies of the project, helping design and test parameters and being transparent about what they need for it to become a reality. Plus Pool reciprocates this transparent relationship every step of the way, informing the stakeholders of project updates. Even when things aren't looking good, it's important that everyone is on the same page. Ensuring that all key stakeholders were consistently informed took perseverance and time but the genuine relationships that have been built as a result were well worth it for the team.
How to kickstart
Plus Pool has been fortunate enough to execute two successful kickstarters: one in 2011 raised $41k and another in 2013 raised $273k. This is a testament to the desire of the public for greater interaction with our rivers. A project as bold and long-term as this one requires research, development and capital. The final installation will cost $20 million, an intimidating nubmer. But how do you eat an elephant? One bite at a time. Aside from raising money, one of the key fundraising goals was to recruit loyal supporters who would join them on their journey.
The 2011 kickstarter was launched to raise funds to do research on the pool's filtration system, which will use river water. The research will showcase the viability of using their 3 part filtering system. The team locked themselves in the room for months preparing for this kickstarter: building images, videos and finding out reward structures for donors.
In 2013, the team launched a larger, bolder kickstarter campaign. This time, the they spent about six months preparing. The goal was to install beta units in real river conditions. This time around the reward structure focused purchasing a filtration tile. A key part of this fundraising campaign was leveraging existing stakeholders to recruit more funders. This project was not just about a pool, rather a larger vision on how the public can engage natural resources. Along the way, many people became personally invested in the success of this project. A project like this depends entirely on its supporters. The team even called each and every one of those people and being genuine on what you're trying to accomplish, t.
So what does it take to complete a project like this? Perseverance.
"The reason why people don't do this every day is because: A) it's hard, and B) they're afraid of failure. For the first six years none of us were paid. If this is going to happen, you have to spend every hour on this. At this point, the only reason it won't happen is if we decided to stop doing it"
Special thanks to Archie and Kara Meyer of Plus Pool. To see more of the awesome work they are doing check out their site PlusPool.org

DULUTH, Minn. - Many asked if Duluth would plan a parade.
But in curling country, for the region's gold medal-winning sons, a Bridge of Brooms was more appropriate.
It was probably more emotional, too, with so many local admirers and future curlers honored to take part.
"Just to see the smiles on their faces when they won," said young Maya Lisi of Duluth, "I was just overwhelmed."
In the program at the Duluth Entertainment Convention Center, the athletes credited the other Minnesota Olympians who won gold with inspiring them.
"I can't tell you how much it fired every single one of us on Team USA up," said John Shuster.
After plenty of patriotic cheer – and cheers – each and every person who wanted to got to meet their new heroes.
And thank them.
"You guys, we're so proud of you, we're so happy," said one woman going through the autograph line.
"They said their medal wasn't just theirs," said Clare Schapman from Duluth. "It was everyone's.
The curlers say the most important thing they can do is grow the sport. And if the kids present in Duluth on Tuesday are any indication, Team Shuster deserves a gold for that effort as well.
"I like all the curlers," said one young boy. "They inspired me to do curling. And someday I might want to be in the Olympics too."
With all the new enthusiasm for the sport, curling clubs around the state say they're getting more calls than ever before.

Jyoti Prakash Mondal, Kolkata, December 3, 2013 (Washington Bangla Radio): Kolkata will be getting the taste of inimitable style with the launch of the second store, Agni of designer Agnimitra Paul at Avani Riverside Mall. The new prêt store of the designer is a gift for the people living in Howrah and the surrounding areas from the designer.
"I have always wanted to come up with a store in this part of the city. The people in this part always had to cross the river to do their shopping. They are quite keen on going for designer clothes and hence I thought of opening up my second store here. The main attraction of this store is the fact that the clothing line is affordable and people will be able to make good use of it. Prices start from about two thousand rupees which is quite reasonable if you compare with the prices of clothes that I have in my other store" said Agnimitra Paul. The designer also stressed on the point that this store will break the notion that the designer clothes are too expensive and burns a hole in pocket.
The artistic allegory of the designer is pretty visible in the collection. The use of vibrant colors, the choice of fabrics are all eye catching. A mix of khadi, cotton, silk, organza, crepe has been used by the designer for the making of the clothes. Women wear consists of saris, kurtis, patialas, and accessories like bags and jewelry. The designer also plans to keep shoes in her store so that the client can get all the necessary things from the store. The section for menswear has shirts, pathan suits, dhoti and kurtas. The dresses available at the store are for the daily wear of the people. Intricate designs, juxtaposition of elegant embroidery and edgy fashion cuts makes the dresses appealing for the buyers.
The store is built in an area of 820 square feet. It boasts of an elegant interior design. The design has been done in the form of a prism, which separates the light passing through it into different colors. Agnimitra's signature Madhubani art style has also been inculcated on the walls and hand painted.
Actress Rituparna Sengupta was present at the new store launch event. Dressed in a multi colored mini skirt and a cream colored jacket, the actress looked sexy. The curls in her hair further highlighted her sexy look. "Agnimitra's deisgns are just fabulous. The way she creates new designs with the Indian textiles is mind blowing. She has designed for me in some of my films. I like her saris and the long dresses. They suit me well" said the actress.
Agni is the perfect place for those people who want to buy designer clothes at affordable prices. The store has a great collection for both men and women. Hence visit the store and get yourself dressed in some great designs by the ace designer.

I refuse to bore you by telling you how wonderful I am by ascribing to my name a bunch of flattering adjectives. I am sure that you have already found this too many times in other profiles. I believe that words are cheap, but actions speak much louder, so why bother? Let's cut to the chase and start with real stuff; I am very spontaneous and impulsive like taking an unplanned road trip on the weekend, to checking the new comedian or band in town. I am also okay with chilling and reading a good book or playing my guitar (oh yeah, I really suck at some strings) at home. I would describe myself as down to earth, stable, intelligent, goal-oriented, and can carry on meaningful conversations. I am somewhat old fashion; subsequently, I believe in meeting in person to see if there's chemistry or connection, so if you are looking for someone to exchange 22 emails with before you meet, then you are looking at the wrong profile. If you get to my profile before I get to yours, just say hello, and I will take it from there....

Seeking: Female 19 - 34 for Friendship
About Myself I am a passionate and somewhat complex man, a bit of an enigma. I am a crusader for truth, beauty and goodness. I rail and despise selfishness. I love peace and tranquility but will not countenance injustice. I follow my own conscience and do what I believe is right, whatever the consequence. I believe that the worth of a person lies, not in what he does or even in what he has, but in what he is. What others' say about someone has no bearing on me. I rely solely on personal experience. I like people, and value friendship. I make friends readily but not close friends easily. As a friend I am a loyal and compassionate. I am affable and resourceful, part philosopher, historian, an artist and a poet. I am free spirited and naturally good natured and sport a developed sense of humor. I have an active, eager mind, ever engaged in reflection and thought and intensely curious about the world around me. As a result, I am somewhat absent minded. I love and respect nature and am passionate about the preservation and fostering of the natural world. I love trees, and have been known to hug one on impulse. I look for beauty in everything; in nature, in people, especially for what's in their hearts, and in places and things I encounter along the way. I believe life IS about the journey and not the destination. On occasion in my journey, I have been unhorsed due to fortune and circumstance. And for a time have experienced depressive feelings and short lived despair. However, like the Phoenix, I have always reinvented myself and risen from my own ashes to venture onward.
