That has given me time, however, to peruse the net plenty and I read <a href=\"http:\/\/www.nytimes.com\/2008\/10\/09\/fashion\/09skin.html\">this<\/a> interesting article in the NY Times about a computer program that simulates what your face would look like \u201cperfect\u201d i.e., what the program has generated to be a perfect set of features. I\u2019ve read about a few of these computer programs before, that look to achieve facial symmetry, etc.; this program uses only \u201cslight\u201d adjustments so the person still looks like themselves.<\/p>\n<p>I\u2019ll admit, I\u2019m totally curious what my \u201cperfect\u201d face would be. But does this mean a future of people that go to the plastic surgeon\u2019s office, upload their face into the program and we all come out looking like each other? I know, my Twilight Zone imagination has run away with itself. But still\u2026interesting thought don\u2019t you think?<\/p>\n<p>Also saw <a href=\"http:\/\/www.sciam.com\/article.cfm?id=dressed-for-distress\">this<\/a> article in the Scientific American (yes, I actually like to read the SA), about a study on the effects of clothes on the mind, specifically, Bangladeshi teens attending London schools and how their assimilation into western wear, or lack thereof, affected their mental health two years later. It\u2019s about time people did a psychological study on how what you wear effects you.<\/p>\n<p>Read the stories, what do you think????<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"It\u2019s
