Italy vs. America

We all think that we get all our style from Milan but that’s a lie. While visiting in Italy we discovered that it’s exactly the opposite. When you look through those glass windows, all you see is black, white, and a pinch of tan. But in America, when you glance through the windows you see color, color, and of course a little dark.
In Italy the stuff is small and plain. We aren’t saying that the stuff is bad…it’s just different. A very common thing to see in a shop window is a black and/or white dress, with a small pearl bracelet. But if you look at how people really dress in Italy, they don’t wear exactly what’s in the shop window, but it is just like one color, example: blue shirt, blue jeans, white tank, white skirt, etc.
America’s style is VERY different. It’s all about BIG, BOLD, and of course COLOR! Everything you see in a shop window is big and bright, and makes you want to come in. When you walk in side you see two things…one: a modern version of the 80’s…two: colors everywhere. We pile acessories like beads on a necklace. A normal outfit is a ruffled purple top with white jeans, and colorful pumps.
So if someone ever says to you, “Italian and American styles are like exactly the same” tell them to think again. Say to them, “Though each style is unique and totally different, they both know how to dress”.
Now that you know the difference you should probably tell people, so they aren’t ‘off’. So let’s review: Italy has mostly darker plainer, (but still cute) stuff. America has big, bright, bold, bulky, colorful, and most definatley not plain styles.

when did America get so fat

The Big Lie About Diets:
I often wonder; when did America get so fat and why did the rest of the English speaking world follow?  Nobody seems to remember a time when most people were slim. I am sure there are people who believe we have always been predominantly fat.
I am not sure precisely when I first wondered; when did america get so fat?  Like most people I was slow to notice. But unlike most people, I do remember when and how it began.
When self proclaimed experts try to create a truth out of false statements, all they have to do is repeat it often enough, to enough people to make it a fact. That is unless somebody speaks up and proves otherwise.  Sometimes, by then it can be too late.
If no one intervenes these same false statements move from facts to dogma.  Usually that means nobody dares to challenge it.  By that time, there is often no one left who can remember how the dogma came to be or, who started the myth in the first place.
The only thing that will expose false dogma is the courage to shine a bright light on it and demand the proof. Even then, that may not be enough. You see, such a challenge is usually up against overwhelming vested interests.
To give you an example: About eight years ago the CSIRO, the most respected science research facility in Australia, decided to do the first ever, serious, scientific study of diets and dieting.
Three years later, they published a paper which, amongst other things, made the excessive use of cereals and grains the reason why diets were making people fatter instead of slimmer. They said if you eat correctly, as people once did, by instinct, few people would need to diet. There was an immediate outcry of abuse from nutritionist.  It was supported by the cereal and diet food manufacturers.
The CSIRO retaliated by publishing their own diet book on how to get slim and to stay that way.  The nutritionists, who already had regular spots on TV and columns in newspapers, went on a massive publicity campaign to vilify the CSIRO and their evil, misguided results.  They claimed their own research proved that a healthy balance diet, as developed by their own research proved theirs was the only way for people to lose weight and become healthy.
It seems the CSIRO had finally had enough. A spokesman appeared to make a brief statement. I do not remember the words he used but it went something like this: We are a highly respected, scientific research facility. We have done three years intensive study on diets and dieting and our findings have been published in the appropriate journals.  If anyone has reason to dispute our findings and can show evidence, I suggest they publish their own findings.
This was a big reality check for nutritionists because they would have suddenly realized that the dogma on which they base their philosophy does not have a leg to stand on.  For thirty [...]
