Praise as good as cash to Brain

CHICAGO (Reuters) - Paying people a compliment appears to activate the same reward center in the brain as paying them cash, Japanese researchers said on Wednesday.

They said the study offers scientific support for the long-held assumption that people get a psychological boost from having a good reputation.

"We found that these seemingly different kinds of rewards -- a good reputation versus money -- are biologically coded by the same neural structure, the striatum," said Dr. Norihiro Sadato of the Japanese National Institute for Physiological Sciences in Okazaki, Japan.

"This provides the biological basis of our everyday experience that personal reputation is felt as rewards," Sadato said in an e-mail.

Sadato's team studied 19 healthy people using a brain imaging technique known as functional magnetic resonance imaging, or fMRI.

In one set of experiments, people played a gambling game in which they were told one of three cards would yield a payout. The researchers then monitored the brain activity triggered when the subjects got a cash reward.

In a second set of experiments, people were told they were being evaluated by strangers based on information from a personality questionnaire and a video they had made.

The researchers then monitored reactions to these staged evaluations -- including when the subjects thought strangers had paid them a compliment.

Life's Perspective

One day, the father of a very wealthy family took his son on a trip to the country side with the purpose of showing him how poor people lived.

They spent a couple of days and nights on the farm of what the son would consider a very poor family.

On their return trip, the father asked his son, "How was the trip?"

"It was great, Dad."

"Did you see how poor people live?" the father asked.

"Oh yeah," said the son.

"So, tell me, what have you learned from the trip?" asked the father.

The son answered:

"I saw that we have one dog and they had four.

We have a pool that reaches to the middle of our garden and they have a creek that has no end.

We have imported lanterns in our garden and they have the stars at night...

Our patio reaches to the front yard and they have the whole horizon.

We have a small piece of land to live on and they have fields that go beyond our sight.

We have servants who serve us, but they serve themselves.

We buy our food, but they grow theirs.

We have walls around our property to protect us; they have friends to protect them."

The boy's father was speechless.

Then his son added, "Thanks Dad for showing me how poor we are."

Isn't perspective a wonderful thing? Makes you wonder what would happen if we all gave thanks for everything we have, instead of worrying about what we don't have.

Appreciate every single thing you have in life, especially people around you !

Mind-Boggling

Found this one in my mailbox this morning; Thanks to the courtesy of Fun & Fun Only, this illusion is like nothing I've ever seen before.


Did you take a close look at the picture? let me tell you it is not animated. Your eyes are making it move.To test this, stare at one spot for a couple of seconds and everything will stop moving. Or look at the black center of each circle and it will stop moving. But move your eyes over to the next black center and the previous one will appear to move after you take your eyes away from it.... Weird ???

Hello Entrecarders

Hello Entrecard friends, please care to spare a minute or two for me, I'd like to have a word with you. For the past 10-11 days I've been pretty seriously dropping 300 cards everyday, and to read atleast 1/3rd of the articles and yet promote my new site( and second entrecard) hardly leaves me any time to manage or modify my dropping list. Sorry to all those who've been consistently dropping on me and yet aren't getting any return drops; as I said I was busy what with end labs approaching and all that. So I thought better of it today and started writing this post, for the same reason I've changed the place of my widget, hoping that powerdroppers may find this post in the pursuit of my widget.


Those who have remained my regular droppers but haven't been getting my drop/blog watch in return kindly comment at the end of this post, giving me your entrecard url and your blog url. I promise you I'll add you to my dropping list within 3 hours. You can as well mail me or message me on the Entrecard in-house message system; I'll act promptly. Thanx for being a loyal dropper.

Killer Bear? I'm just a big teddy, really!

(article originally published in the newspaper Dailymail )

It was a chance encounter that could have ended with flying fur and bloodshed in the snow.

Wildlife photographer Norbert Rosing was taking pictures of a team of huskies in Canada's frozen north when a polar bear gatecrashed the party.

Along with dog handler Brian Ladoon, Mr Rosing watched helplessly as the bear and one of the dogs approached each other.

1 - This floe ain't big enough for the both of us: The bear gives the husky a stare that says beware

2 - Watch out, I'm a southpaw: The dog cowers as his adversary threatens to land a knockout blow

3 - On second thoughts, you're not so bad: A nuzzle with the muzzle clinches the peace deal

4 - Go on, give me a (bear) hug: The new friends enjoy a cuddle

5 - If I lie here long enough I might even get a tickle on the tummy: The bear is playful, the husky is a little bemused and the handler (out of shot) is extremely relieved
