– MEDIA magazine names Al Gore Person of the Year. Huh?

– Without a review, Revlon has moved it $200 million from Carat to Initiative. Well, that’s gotta suck for Carat.

– Yet another anti-advertising group fights the proliferation of outdoor advertising. The problem with all these groups though is that they use the same techniques all other advertisers do which simply adds even more to the already ridiculously cacophonous level of marketing litter.

The Oprah Magazine tops this year’s AdWeek Magazine 2007 Hot List. Rounding out the top ten are Real Simple, US, More, Teen Vogue, Glamour, Allure, Wired, Martha Stewart Living and The Economist.

Psychology says people who struggle with self-love don’t actually hate themselves — they’re operating with a nervous system that was trained to interpret self-criticism as protection, and kindness toward themselves triggers the same alarm bells that kept them safe when when they were small
