Risk Taking Researcher
Chapter 13-15
The Red Scarf Girl is a novel based on the cultural revolution. The key person that is always mentioned in the book is "Chairman Mao" or "Mao Zedong." So the things that I am going to research about are those two things.
The Chinese Cultural Revolution was a political-movement that took place in China from 1966 to 1976. The idea was set by Mao Zedong, the Chairman of the Communist Party of China and that time period. There were two main things that he wanted to achieve from this movement which are: Imposing Maoists in the party, and to enforce communism by removing capitalists, traditional and cultural elements of China. The movement was not a success, and impacted the country's politically, economically, and socially. In 1966, Mao insisted that the revisionists had to be removed because they were supposedly trying to restore capitalism. So to do this, youths formed Red Guard groups, and many senior officers were killed. And in the same time, Mao's personality Cult grew bigger. Many people suffered abuses including public humiliation, arbitrary imprisonment, torture, sustained harassment, and seizure of property. After the death of the military leader, Lin Biao, the active phase ended. However, the real endpoint was when the Gang of Four got arrested, and reformers led by Deng Xiaoping ended the Maoist reforms.
The most important person in this movement was Mao Zedong, the former Chairman of the Communist Party. He was a Chinese Communist and the founder of the People's Republic of China. He is from a wealthy family in Hunan. Mao adopted a Chinese Nationalists outlook in early life because of the many events that took place at that time. In 1949, he found PRC, which was controlled by the communist party. In 1966, he launched the Cultural Revolution. He is considered as both a great leader, and a dictator. Mao died on 9 September 1976.

Wikipedia has the common definition:
"A mood is a relatively long lasting emotional state.
Moods differ from simple emotions in that they are less
specific, less intense, and less likely to be triggered by
a particular stimulus or event."
Being more global, moods can mask feelings, which are sometimes more intense and often more fleeting. Feelings tend to come and go with greater rapidity and more visibility.
Either feelings or moods can be a problem for teens. My use of the term mood can be understood to reflect feelings that are both short and long term, embedded in or that occur separately from specific moods. I define these terms this way because with teenagers, feelings quickly become emotions, which precipitate out moods-but all this can occur more rapidly than in non-teen groups, hence they sometimes all start to look alike.
Parents have to deal with their teenager's moods, because we all know teenagers have exaggerated moods. This is a nice way to say sometimes teenager's moods are more intense than in "normal" people. The word "drama" comes to mind.
For all of us, at times, moods trample reasoning and compromise
behavior. When is a teen's mood out of the ordinary? The answer depends upon the parent's judgment, just as much as the teenager's experience. Normally, a little fluctuation of mood happens to all of us. In teens, the range of ups and down is slightly extended; that is, they sometimes are a little more "up" and sometimes they are a little more "down." But ups and downs, even if a little expanded in range, do not normally undermine function. Usually, this is your teenager's way of getting your attention, expressing feeling misunderstood, expressing
misunderstood feelings, etc. While slightly unstable moods make dealing with teens more challenging, eventually the moods subside, and "normal" functioning prevails. If this is the case, your teenager's moods are fine.
When teenager's moods deteriorate and stay that way, its time for intervention. Mood destabilization is a sign of pathology, which can be caused by many things. Teens experiment a lot at this age, that being another hallmark of individuation. If in their poor judgment state teens choose to use drugs, lots of very bad things might happen, the first of which are "flame outs." You will more than notice big changes in teen behavior, characterized by emotional volatility. But also beware of sudden withdrawal and excessive quiet. These signs are equally suspect.
The scope of this article is too narrow to warrant a discussion of teen drug use. But parents should not overlook this possibility and they should address it at its first occurrence. The same is true when
considering alcohol use, which is rampant among teens. I consider alcohol to be a "liquid" drug, but a drug nonetheless. Teenagers will put up quite an argument to justify their substance ab/use, debating the merits of smoking pot vs. drinking wine with dinner. Be prepared.

Lili's book review for the day
I'm very much enjoying reading Ben Goldacre's latest book I Think You'll Find It's a Bit More Complicated Than That, even though most of it is material from Goldacre's newspaper column in the Guardian, some of it quite old. I love the way the book kicks off with a piece that asks a serious question about the scientific credibility of the loud, emphatic and often-repeated pronouncements of Professor Susan Greenfield about the supposed dire effects of computer use on the brain development of children. With the greatest politeness Goldacre places Greenfield's controversial idea outside the arena of credible scientific debate. I am so fed up with seeing that bigmouth in heels popping up on Australian television and Australian speaking engagements, so it is gratifying to see a good hard questioning of this public nuisance given a position of prominence in Goldacre's book. I can only hope that people from the Australian Broadcasting Corporation might come across it. Another publicity-seeking English academic who has been a target of my attentions at this blog is discussed in the book, in an investigation of a "bizarre" and embarassing matter concerning autism and a media report that appeared to go against the consensus of science. Can you guess who that English autism researcher might be? Yes, in this book Goldacre writes about Baroness Greenfield and also Professor Baron-Cohen.
I'm pleased to read just about anything Goldacre writes, because he is a journalist and writer in an entirely different class than most. There are plenty of people (mostly men) out there who like to think of themselves as hard-headed skeptics or rationalists, but their critical scrutiny has definite limits. They love to ridicule the usual targets of the scientifically smug: new agers, homeopathy, anti-vaccination campaigners, but they show no interest or awareness of the many crises of credibility within conventional medicine, and they love to quote textbook accounts of how they believe science works, without acknowledging the many scandals and fundamental problems that are coming to light in academic research, including conflicts of interest, research fraud and failures of peer review. If these people were true skeptics, they would see and acknowledge problems wherever mere humans make claims to know how to heal and to know how diseases and human bodies work. Ben Goldacre comes fairly close to meeting my high standard of what a true skeptic should be, and he's not just an armchair knocker, he is a qualified doctor and academic with a high-powered career, so he certainly does not argue from ignorance. Goldacre is great and it is a unique service to humanity that he writes books, a blog and newspaper columns, but in my eyes he could definitely do better.
I do not recall ever seeing Dr Goldacre questioning the labels and the basic concepts in medicine and psychiatry that are so controversial among elite academic and medical researchers and non-professionals alike. Researchers such as Gordon Rugg and Sue Gerrard, as well as the man in the street, have questioned the value of "autism" as a diagnosis or a way of categorizing people, while Goldacre writes about autism in much the same way as any other medico would. Countless critics such as former politician and teacher Dr Martin Whitely, and the bloke in the street, have questioned the application of ADHD as a label for children, but I don't recall ever seeing Goldacre go down this path in his writing. Professor Peter Gotzsche, who is no less than a co-founder of the Cochrane Collaboration shares Goldacre's serious concern about the quality of research and government regulation pertaining to commonly-used prescription drugs, but Gotzsche takes an important step beyond Goldacre's campaigning in his assertion that mental illness is over-diagnosed, a belief that many people with no medical education would agree with, based on their common sense and personal observations alone. A passionate advocate of evidence-based medicine and careful research, Goldacre's focus is exceedingly sharp but disappointingly short-sighted. He's all about designing the study properly and reviewing the literature to standards of excellence, but I don't see him asking too many questions about the assumptions and definitions behind the study's premise. All the same, his books are 100% less frustrating to read than the work of all of those "skeptics" whose main motivation to write or speak appears to be a misogynistic joy in taking the mickey out of harmless old ladies who believe in Reiki healing. Dr Goldacre's humanity and civility shine through all of his work, and this alone is a pleasure to read.

Thanks for the recommendation! I've just finished reading the book, and thoroughly enjoyed it. A good reminder of just how much complete rubbish there is out there.

Glad you liked it Tomas!
What would the world look like if there were more folks like Goldacre, and they had some clout, I wonder. There's a chapter in the book intended to educate educators about evidence-based practice. Considering that I've only partly successfully tried to explain to qualified librarians working in public libraries around these parts what the Cochrane Library is and why it is important and useful and why they should promote it to their readers, the idea of our local cup-cake munching teachers and school principals conceiving and conducting randomized controlled trials or systematic literature searches looks like science fiction to my eyes. I guess you've got to have a dream, to make a dream come true..........

But, I napped from 8:45ish til 11. Which has to count for something, right?
Tonight was one of those nights where I just could not stay awake. Before taking the long(ish) nap I cat napped several times while watching the evening news. Actually, since I can't say I remember much between hanging up the phone with my mom around 8 and actually turning off the lights at 8:45, I can probably roll back that start time on the nap by a bit.
Naps, are good. Sleep is good. Being perpetually awake til 1 am or later, well, that's bad.
I've read an abundance of articles about how to get better sleep - set a routine, only use your bedroom for sleep, don't watch TV in bed, etc. The problem is, I pretty much live in my room. Sure, there are other rooms in my apartment, and I'll occasionally spend an evening reading or watching TV from the living room but... 90% of the time that I'm home, it's spent in my room.
Changing the things that could (would?) impact my sleep habits means changing my life habits as a whole. And, well, we all know just how well I do with change.
For tonight, I'm still chalking this one up as a win as I may not have gone to sleep before midnight, but I still got sleep prior to midnight. And that my friends, is what they call a small victory.

EBSCO: EBSCOhost RSS Feed and Search/Journal Alert Upgrades
According to David Rothman, the policy needs some tweaking, as it requires users to "access" the feeds within a week of creation, and they must remain "active" or they will be deleted.
Sadly, this makes no sense, and the people at EBSCO seemed to have missed the point of feeds. I will have to look into this further, especially since I currently have four feeds from EBSCO databases, and would really hate for this to be deleted without warning.

EBSCOhost RSS Feed and Search/Journal Alert Upgrades

"As long the EBSCOhost user adds the feed to an aggregator within one week of its creation, it will not expire, unless the aggregator does not automatically update results (extremely unlikely) supplied by the feed for two months." Bloglines has this to say about updates: "Currently, Bloglines checks sites once an hour for updates." So I'm not really sure this is a problem--am I misunderstanding something?

Rain, Rain, Rain
After three days of rain, I was able to get into the garden again this evening to rescue two of my irises, which had fallen over, and plant a few foxglove and oriental poppies that I bought at Skillin's. Tomorrow, I get to pick up the two rain barrels I ordered from the city water department -- too late to collect all this rain, of course, but it'll hopefully be a good investment.

Book Review: The Shadow Lines By Amitav Ghosh
39 comments:
I like the 'liqueur chocolate' bit. I admire Ghosh's ability to research his material in depth and presenting it to the reader. I haven't read this one but now after seeing this post, I think I need a dose of Ghosh. It has been long since I had one. Thanks Seeta for this reminder. Now, got to get some Ghosh.ReplyDelete
And, yes, you have indeed done justice to the novel.
Joy always,
Thanks Susan :) I agree, the amount of research he puts in his books is overwhelming, I have found that to be the case with most acclaimed Authors too.I guess this is one of the reasons why I am not very delighted with the kind of Fiction that is flooding the Indian markets today.Delete
So this one is a must-pick then :) Now, you know how not-very-fond-of-reviews I am ! Yet I not only took the pain to read it, but also comment, which means you have done a splendid job of "doing justice" to this one. Like how Kushwant Singh said "This is how language must be used", I will say, "This is how reviews must be written". Please take it as high praise as it comes from someone who absolutely detests reading reviews in any form.ReplyDeleteReplies
Oh yes.. I do know how much you dislike reviews so your comment and the fact that you enjoyed it makes me go over the moon :)Delete
Frankly though I called it a review, it's really not one, I just put down what I felt about the book. :)
I don't know when I will get some decent tie to sit with a book and I have been adding books to my list of must read. Adding this one too. I liked your comparison of this with chocolate. :)ReplyDeleteReplies
It did remind me of chocolate. When I began reading it, I wondered about where it was going and then when I completed the book, I kept thinking about it :PDelete
If not this, do try and read one of his works... this is probably one of the shortest so it should be easier to fit this in your schedule :)
Nice review Sita. Currently reading his 'The hungry tide' and loving it. He is a master of his craft.ReplyDeleteReplies
I must add it to my must-read list since you have lavished glowing praises on the book. I do appreciate books with detailed plots and especially those where loose ends are neatly tied later. Will look forward to reading this one. Like Sid, I detest reading reviews too. Some of them get so technical, long-winded and crazy especially for someone who hasn't read the book that they drive me insane. So yes, this one was a breather :D.ReplyDeleteReplies
I love his work, the research that goes in is mind blowing.. you know, his passion for the written word shows.. and I understand your feelings about reviews :) I have reduced them mainly because of the reasons you mentioned.. they confuse me about the book completely. So glad you found this one to be better :)Delete
Reminds me of his Sea of Poppies. Amitav is a master story teller when it comes to detailing and depth. Having lived abroad adds to his nuanced eye. Loved the liqueur chocolate analogy.ReplyDeleteReplies
Absolutely.. Suspense, Mystery and Genre's of the likes are such that an Author can get away with as long as there is enough twist and turn to it. Work like the kind Amitav does, it all depends on the narrative, the detailing and the depth to which he takes us... and many a times I feel the real skill lies in such work.Delete
Thanks Alka, it was a liqueur chocolate for me :)
Great write-up! Writing is a talent, and it must not be wasted. As with everything that we had been entrusted, we should let it grow and share it with the world.> self development planReplyDelete
this one seems to have everything.. and since you use khushwants's lines this aught to be a good bookReplyDelete
nice review
I guess Kushwant Singh's line is the clincher for this one :)Delete
- AnonymousJune 18, 2014 11:20 AM
I loved his Hungry Tide.Will pick this up surely. BTW I love reading/writing reviews and you have done absolute justice to this book which moved you so much:)ReplyDeleteReplies
Thanks Sridevi, I have read your reviews and loved them. So coming from you, this is a compliment for me :). If you liked Hungry Tide, trust me you will like this one. It was one of his first...Delete
Seeta, you have done a great job with this review. In a way I think it is less of a review but more of what you felt about this book, which makes it a wonderful read in my view :) Though for some time now I haven't been much into fiction but I have always wanted to read Amitav Ghosh, have read him only in bits and pieces here and there, it seems like this book maybe a good one to start with.ReplyDeleteReplies
You are absolutely right Beloo. It is less of a review and more of my thoughts flowing on the book. To write a review I would have to look at it with a critique outlook.. but I am somehow not able to look at some books in that manner, this is one of them. Do try and read him, he is one of the best Indian Authors around.Delete
That was a great review - a review that gives one a foretaste of how it would be to read the novel.ReplyDeleteReplies
I realized after penning it down that I hadn't really analyzed the book, instead I had just penned my response to it.. which like you said gives a foretaste of what to expect :)Delete
Shadow Lines was the Amitav Ghosh book I read and its been nearly 25 years now and he still remains my favourite author.ReplyDeleteReplies
Luck you Purba... i think despite this being one of oldest works it is one of his best. Given the new breed of authors cropping up in India, I am glad we have an Amitav aroundDelete
- AnonymousJune 20, 2014 9:27 AM
Amitav Ghosh is a master novelist and I have become his firm fan after reading Sea of Poppies. I felt rather bad when it ended.Would love to read this one too ! You have presented it very well and I loved your simile of the liqueur chocolate.ReplyDeleteReplies
read this one Ash, if you liked Sea of Poppies, I am sure you will enjoy this one.. it is one of his oldest and one of the bestDelete
That is such a descriptive and in-depth review, Seeta! Kudos! :)ReplyDelete
Loved it!Replies
Thanks Bhavya.. when I read what I had written I realized it flowed better as my thoughts than an actual review :)Delete
I read it a long time back, I remember I enjoyed it but I can hardly recall much now :( Such is human mind.ReplyDeleteReplies
You are so busy travelling lady! :)Delete
Have just completed his 'The Glass Place', and your wonderful review makes me feel like reading this one too at the earliest..!ReplyDeleteReplies
I clicked through indiblogger to read this review as this book is one of my favourites too. His childhood description of the Calcutta riots and the sense of displacement woven through the story is something very intriguing. You must read 'Imam and other stories' by him as in one of those short memoirs he has described the sikh riots in Delhi too.ReplyDelete
Somehow my favourite amongst his work is Calcutta Chromosome for many reasons, may be because I have been in research :-)Replies
Many bloggers ask me why I review books I have read when the Author hasnt commissioned them to me.. i tell them I review or rather pen my reaction to the book for the sheer love of the book and not because someone has asked me to... now I can tell them that doing these reviews puts me in touch with like minded people like you :)Delete
Glad you stopped by Sangeeta, I echo your words about this book.
Nice :).. Liquor chocolate, I couldn't have hoped for a better comparison :)ReplyDeleteReplies
Many told me that... it was the first thing I could think of when i sat to pen this down :)Delete
Wow! Looks like a gripping tale, Seeta. What lovely words in the excerpts you have shared! He's is one of the finest writers....ReplyDelete
Nice review. Even I wanna enjoy this liqueur chocolate :)

I was shortlisted but not selected for the RA Summer Exhibition. The letter came yesterday. My goal was to go through the selection process which I did. I enjoyed the experience and will get a few days in London so I'm quite happy. I think they were looking for something more cutting edge than what I had to offer. We're planning to go to the exhibition and will no doubt enjoy it. Maybe I'll try again next year...maybe not.
Today is a beautiful day and I'm in the studio again. Juli will arrive about tea-time. They are dropping by en-route to Sunderland from Bel-Air and Paris.
My only instruction is to clear the dining room table, water the plants, make tea and arrange to pick up the stained glass that we've had repaired. I also expect to make a few calls and reply to some emails...maybe even visit a few blogs.
I thought I'd post now as I don't expect anything else to happen today and know things will be hectic later when the family arrive.
Q. How do I feel on this the 4th June?
A. Fortunate, happy and optimistic.
Q. What music blasts in the studio today?
A. Rod Stewart, Rodney Crowell, Mark Knopfler (sailing to philadelphia, Daniel Bedingfield, Imogen Heap, Ron Sexsmith, Dylan, Show of Hands.

Don't give up. Just because your paintings weren't accepted this year does not mean to say that they won't be accepted next year. Of course, if something more interesting comes along which diverts you, then that is different. But don't just stop. Perhaps I should pay attention to what I have just written to you, and keep on sending out my books to agents and publishers. So for us both: don't give up!ReplyDelete
Welcome home, Ken! I've missed popping in here so I was really glad to see that you are back for a while. I am going to have to steal that new word: Zombified. Love it!ReplyDelete
I agree with Vera. Don't give up. I love your artwork and the sense of light and inspiration I get from it. [And don't you give up either, Vera! :) ]
I don't know about not being cutting edge - I thought your paintings were lovely and are the sort of works I want to see when I go to a gallery. I know it makes me sounds dated and fusty but I'm not a fan of conceptual bollocky art installations - I like a scene to be recognisable. Still to be short listed is no mean feat and I reckon you can feel justly proud.ReplyDelete

Never mind a gallery Ken, any of your paintings would look just lovely on my wall!! I agree that you can be proud of being shortlisted.ReplyDelete
Sailing to Philadelphia is a favourite of mine too, particularly the version with James Taylor.
I regularly read your blog Ken, but my home computer for some reason has a google problem and it won't let me post a comment. I am using my husbands laptop in France at the moment, which has no such problem. Alas it's back to the UK tomorrow so it will be August before I next comment! Regards
I think your paintings are great. You are quite right in enjoying the "experience," better luck next time. And thanks for taking time off to visit my blog...:)ReplyDelete
I won't give up if you don't Vera...and I suspect you never give up. I'm lovin' your blog incidentally.ReplyDelete
Hi Randi and thanks. I usually use Frazzled but was so tired that I could only remember Zombified. When I get really tired I can't remember my grandkids names for a minute or two.
Hi Julie
I'm much the same as you with installation art although I do like the thought behind some of it. I also like some modern art but traditional painting is my favourite.
Hi GaynorB
I've just about worn out the Mason Dixon Line with JT. I've noticed today that I have TWO copies. How did that happen?
Hope you enjoyed France. I look forward to hearing where you visited but I guess I'll have to wait a while.
Thanks for dropping by.

The passion narratives contain a little detail which I'd like to focus on: the high priest tears his own garments upon hearing Jesus blaspheme.GMatt's version (26:62–65 . . . c.f. GMark 14: 60–62)
"And the high priest stood up and said, "Have you no answer to make? What is it that these men testify against you?"
But Jesus was silent.
And the high priest said to him, "I adjure you by the living God, tell us if you are the Christ, the Son of God."
Jesus said to him, "You have said so. But I tell you, hereafter you will see the Son of man seated at the right hand of Power, and coming on the clouds of heaven."
Then the high priest tore his robes, and said, "He has uttered blasphemy. Why do we still need witnesses? You have now heard his blasphemy."
I first heard this story as a child and have always thought that this was an expression of righteous indignation on the part of the high priest, that it was a response to Jesus' blasphemy, and indeed, it is just that in the gospel narrative. However, I recently searched the Hebrew scriptures for instances where this symbolic gesture appears. It turns out that in the Tanach there are many places where people tear their garments, but in every single case this act is an expression of deep sorrow—(1 Samuel 15:22–23, and 1 Kings 11:29–35 for a couple of examples). Never is it an expression of anger or indignation.
So I come to yet another crossroad:
- Either the author of GMark was completely uninformed (or misinformed) about the meaning of this symbol in the scriptures . . . . . or
- He is deliberately coopting the symbol to add drama to the narrative (incorrectly though it may be)—to add injury to insult, so to speak.
Coincidentally, these were the same conclusions I came to in my previous open question #1. As in that post, the "question" is not really technically a question. The question mark lies instead in the anomalies involved in each. The question, in effect, is a general, "what gives?"

Bede Youth Adventure Project is for local young people aged 8 to 19. We've got activities throughout the year that are fun, thought provoking and challenging. There's a big emphasis on Adventure at Bede, plus we've got a music studio and bike repair workshop.
Monday Club: 6pm to 8.30pm term time for 16 to 19 year olds (up to 25 years for people with special needs).
Tuesdays: We have a new club for 8 to 10 year olds from 6pm to 7.30pm and a club for 11 to 13 year olds from 6pm to 8.30pm.
Wednesday Club: 6pm to 8.30pm term time for 13 to 16 year olds.
Thursdays: We go out on detatched Youth Work from our mini bus, contacting young people on local estates between 5pm and 8pm.
Each month we follow a four week programme:
1st Week – Planning
This is where you get to plan and choose your activities for the month including: issues you want to discuss, places you want to visit and skills you want to learn. Members must attend planning sessions before taking part in the other sessions.
2nd Week – Learn a Skill
Based on your earlier choices, you can learn something new like cooking, ice skating or go-karting, or writing job application letters.
3rd Week – Discussing the Big Issues
This is your chance to discuss the big issues affecting you and your friends. Sometimes we will invite experts like lawyers, careers advisers or health workers to join the discussion.
4th Week – Film night
This is when we watch a film you've chosen, usually linked with the big issue we've been discussing. We're usually in the club that night and enjoy food and refreshments whilst we discuss the movie.
Adventure Activities
Each year we go away for short residentials to activity centres in England or Wales. Last year we went to Hereford for adventurous activities including horse riding in the forests and gorges of South Wales.
We also do day trips and short adventure activities like dry slope skiing and indoor skydiving. See our YouTube clip to find out what indoor skydiving is like when our club members attended a session at Airkix in Basingstoke:
Kitchen Social – good things to eat and do
Over the next three years, the Mayor's Fund for London (a social mobility charity), aims to identify and help 330 community organisations across London develop a healthy food and social development offer during the school holidays. See what happened during the school holidays when Bede got assistance from the fund:

way overdue shout out to my SP!
In the hecticness of the holiday season and my unique ability to suck at life I photographed my secret pals last fab package and promply misplaced my camera. So, I'm left to rephotograph it and finally post. It was an amazing package that arrived just a few days before Christmas. She sent me an adorable "great yarns knit froends together" mug. And some delish Tazo teas. my pal is a mind reader because I recently quit caffeine and they had a great selection of herbal and decaf teas. I'm lovin the decaf chai. It also has some great caffinated teas taht i'll keep on hand for company. There was a great little bag stuffed with 3 skeins of handpainted merino yarns. I'm going to make socks with it once i try a few pairs with some less fabulous yarn. Can't wait!
There is also something that I cannot photograph even with the new camera. My SP is a baker. Well not by occupation i don't think but she or he (she i think)baked delsih choclate orange bread that was promptly consumed by my family this Christmas.
I also have a photo of thr handknit ornament she made for me for Christmas. So adorable. I'd love the pattern for next year.
