In the case of Pisces, you are a compilation of all eleven signs that run from Aries through Aquarius, and adding your own perspective is said to make Pisces the sign of ultimate wisdom, faith, and hope. It is interesting to note that the ancient astrologers wrote that each sign builds on the contributions of each of the signs that came before it. Sagittarius rules the intellectual probing of dogma of religion, while Pisces rules pure belief that accompanies religion, which springs from the heart. The fruits and other provisions that had been carefully canned in the pantry or frozen for future use months ago are now low, the reason Pisces is associated with the concept of fasting and for going off alone for meditation, prayer, and all things spiritual and religious that lead to enlightenment. By the time we get to Pisces, we find ourselves hoping spring is within reach, even though Mother Nature has given us no sure evidence that it is right around the next corner. ![]() Pisces is considered the last sign of the zodiac, symbolizing the depths of winter with the following sign, Aries, as the first, symbolizing the start of spring. If you are a Pisces man, you wear a great deal of black so you don’t have to think about how you will dress each morning. Shoes are extremely important to Pisces-she has many pairs of designer wear, for Pisces rules the feet-but usually will wear the same pair day after day, as those will be her most comfortable. Your overall style is soft, with feminine fabrics often made of silk or chiffon, layers of transparency, or evening dresses with romantic, sweetheart necklines or interesting sleeves. ![]() You also might enjoy mixing elegant, carefully chosen vintage clothes into your wardrobe for individuality. When it comes to dressing, a Pisces woman will add her own special touch, often blending high- and low-clothing to create an unstructured and flowing look. You may also be drawn to social work, nursing, psychology, therapy, as well as not-for-profit charity work, fundraising, and other areas where you feel you can make a difference to individuals one-on-one.Ĭreative, imaginative, compassionate, selfless-you are one of a kind. ![]() Pisces rules non-verbal communication, the reason so many Pisces work happily as artists, musicians, dancers, sculptors, poets, makeup artists, costume designers, photographers, and filmmakers and in other areas of the arts. Later, when you are ready, you will unveil your projects and astound others with your originality. You are reserved and somewhat quiet, so others often underestimate you, but you don’t mind-this allows you to follow your own agenda as you fly under their radar. Highly intuitive, at times even prescient, you can often say something that the person you are with is thinking but had not said, a skill that always surprises friends and disarms critics. ![]() Scientists say strong emotional intelligence is what separates and elevates humans from other mammals, so proudly wear your heart on your sleeve. As a Pisces, your large and expressive eyes give away all that you are feeling. Other signs cannot begin to match the emotional intensity and capacity for compassion that is part of you, dear Pisces. ![]() ![]() ![]() The restyled plug-in hybrid SUV is very fuel efficient and that should be its top selling point.

Then I was in a small group of economists who believed we were moving to a new era of low inflation and was struck by how long it took market thinking to adjust. When the inflation environment changes, expectations can adjust slowly. It is quite possible that inflation in many western economies, including the US, euro area and the UK, may settle at a higher level than before the pandemic, and above the 2 per cent where markets always seem to expect inflation to return to. If so, expect more policy pressures and market volatility. Markets may thus no longer be able to rely upon monetary policy as being the inevitable shock absorber, where rates are cut in response to economic weakness or financial stress. This is in addition to central banks shrinking their balance sheets. Future monetary policy neutrality points to the need for real positive interest rates. The second key issue warrants more attention. ![]() So further rises look likely, with recession possible. In contrast, the Bank of England lacks any credibility and so has not been able to pause. The Fed’s credibility allows it to pause. But it will raise rates if its aggressive tightening to date does not curb core inflation. There is considerable policy tightening in the pipeline that will slow the economy. Rising inflation expectations and tight labour markets are feeding wage growth and companies appear able to pass on higher costs, thus maintaining or boosting profit margins.ĭespite criticism, the US Federal Reserve was sensible to pause. However, second-round inflation effects are feeding into core inflation in economies such as the UK. The initial drivers of this global inflation bout have been reversed, namely supply-side factors and lax monetary policies. The persistence of core inflation is keeping central banks in the west cautious. It has seen inflation ease to a 25-month low of 4.25 per cent but policy is on hold. While many countries are likely to have seen policy rates already peak, central banks are reluctant to signal easing. The UN’s measure of food prices is 22.1 per cent below its March 2022 all-time high.Ĭhina, which maintained a prudent monetary policy during the pandemic, has just eased and is likely to cut its reserve requirement ratios for banks again, providing liquidity. Globally, headline inflationary pressures are easing. Tightening through higher policy rates could end soon. One is where rates will peak and whether central banks have done enough to curb inflation. The end of cheap money is the dominant issue, driven by the need to restore anti-inflationary credibility to policy. Markets will need to factor this in fully. Not now, but once we see where core inflation settles. That is, policy rates will need to remain higher than inflation for some time. There needs to be a prolonged period of positive real interest rates in western economies.

Sure, some songs are juvenile, but the music exposed me to a new art form (rap) and a different way of thinking-it was a wondrously formative experience for a sheltered suburbanite. To this day, Eminem's "The Eminem Show" remains one of my favorite albums. My friends and I would secretly play the CD, giggling at swear words we knew we weren't supposed to hear. I remember the "explicit" sticker and the sense of danger that came with owning that album. So, like any curious kids, my friends and I procured an Eminem CD, explicit label and all. I had not heard of Eminem before a classmate complained of his CD being confiscated. Growing up, I remember the parents in my town were overly concerned with preventing their children from listening to Eminem. Over time many have come to see the "Tipper sticker" as a failure, as the tag has allegedly fostered a forbidden fruit effect (people want what they can’t have). N.W.A's "Straight Outta Compton" was the first album to receive a "parental advisory" tag, primarily driven by the controversy surrounding the song "F**k the Police." Despite the label's initial intent, the warning sticker unintentionally functioned as a form of marketing, with kids seeking out the record to understand the fuss surrounding its content. Final Thoughts: The Forbidden Fruit Phenomenon Ice Cube's masterpiece is not an upbeat song (by any means), though it effectively portrays life in an underprivileged part of the United States. ![]() Ice Cube's music very explicitly details the ever-present threat of violence, even while the protagonist enjoys a day free from brutality, drama, and struggle. Consider Ice Cube's "Today Was a Good Day," a song about a single day of peace and satisfaction in the rapper's otherwise chaotic life in South Central LA. Rather, artists often use explicit content to explore difficult subject matter or portray certain aspects of life realistically. This evaluation isn't simply the product of a few curse words. Our data also reveals explicit music to be less positive than non-explicit works. These same themes do not perform well in, say, shopping malls, convenience stores, bar mitzvahs, and elevators. Genres like rap, hip-hop, and pop music often involve themes of nightlife, romance, or adult experiences-content that performs well in clubs and dance festivals. While mature content doesn't inherently lend itself to dancing, suggestive music often plays in dance-focused spaces catering to adult audiences. The Rise of Explicit Songs in Popular MusicĪccording to our data, explicit music scores higher on danceability. So today, we'll explore the rise of explicit music, the artists and genres most responsible for producing explicit works, and the musical composition of mature content. Since then, and despite Tipper Gore's best efforts, explicit songs have become a mainstay in popular music. Thus, the concept of "explicit music" was codified. After two months of congressional hearings, the PMRC and the music industry agreed on an "Explicit Lyrics: Parental Advisory" label for obscene albums. Tipper was so enraged that she and several other wives of politicians, known as the "Washington Wives," formed the Parents Music Resource Center (PMRC) to advocate for a music rating system that would inform parents about explicit content. For those who haven't heard "Darling Nikki," the song details the musician's encounter with a so-called "sex fiend." Why, you ask? Well, Tipper Gore made the mistake of listening to Prince's "Darling Nikki" in the company of her 11-year-old daughter. ![]() Before Tipper Gore, there was no "explicit music." Those unaware of Tipper Gore (or her political activity) may be surprised to learn that Al Gore's wife (Tipper) once launched a national campaign to curtail the distribution of obscene music. ![]() ![]() ![]() it can adjourn for the session Synonyms & Similar Words Relevance varieties. 63 other terms for key points- words and phrases with similar meaning. act class, course of instruction, course of study, course.

While you're passively standing there moping īut the moment the penny is up in the air, No-not so that chance shall decide the affair The best way to solve the dilemma, you'll find, ![]() Whenever you're called on to make up your mind, In his book titled Grooks, the Danish poet Piet Hein included a poem entitled “A Psychological Tip” which relates to the Freudian Coin Toss. By analyzing your reaction, you may realize that you actually knew the choice that you wanted to make all along! Ask yourself: Am I pleased? Am I disappointed?” This method of flipping is sometimes called the Freudian Coin Toss. Allegedly, Freud would then say “Look into your own reactions. When faced with someone who was struggling to make a decision, Freud would sometimes suggest that they flip a coin. In fact, it is said that Sigmund Freud himself realized this phenomenon and used it to his advantage. In this scenario, instead of letting the coin decide, you may want to go with the choice that you now realize you really wanted. Sometimes, however, you may find that you’re disappointed with the result. Flipping a coin can be very useful in these situations. People are often faced with difficult decisions between two choices. Sometimes even scientists will flip a coin to determine the order of listed authors for use in academic publications. ![]() In politics, a flip is sometimes used to determine an election in the event that two candidates receive the same number of votes. Many sports, such as football (both American and non-American versions), eSports, cricket, tennis, and fencing, flip a coin to determine which team goes first in a match, or to determine a winner in the event of a draw. Today, the practice of coin flipping can be found all over the world. Players would then flip the shell in the air and call the correct side, just like we do now! The other side of the shell would remain its original color. It is believed that players would cover one side of a shell with a black or very dark brown substance called “black pitch” - a resinous goo which is obtained from trees. While the actual origin of the coin toss is up for debate, many historians believe it originated in Ancient Greece. “Pile” comes from a Middle English term which means “reverse of a coin.” In Peru, the game is called “face or seal,” even to this day! In ancient China, the game was known as “ship or head.” This is because ancient Chinese coins were minted with a ship on one side and a head on the other. Later in history, the British called the game “cross and pile.” At the time, many coins depicted a cross on one side. The outcomes of those flips were considered to be legally binding. During this time, flips were utilized to make some very serious decisions, including those related to criminality, property, and marriage. Julius Caesar himself endorsed the coin flip in 49 BC when he began minting coins which depicted his name. During this period, Romans called the game “navia aut caput,” which translates to “ship or head.” This is because some Roman coins had a ship on one side and the head (or “bust”) of the emperor on the other side. Metal coins were first manufactured as early as the 7th century BC, however, the first accounts of the practice of coin flipping can be found in ancient Rome. ![]() |
