PilotOnline.com: national & world News for Hampton Roads, Va., from The Virginian-Pilot:
EXCERPT  |   " ... And digital photo retouching: The tools of artifice, once accessible only to professionals, have gone democratic. Now manipulators by the millions can use something called a "clone tool" to erase blemishes, unwanted features and entire people. With the tap of a smartphone touchscreen, you can make an image taken seconds ago look like a "vintage" snapshot from a 1972 Polaroid or a 19th-century tintype. A few years back, HP even came out with a camera that had a "slimming feature," allowing you to choose just how much girth you wanted to remove for Facebook or the family album.

But it is in entertainment - a realm custom built for artifice - that this notion plays out most broadly ..."

"Maybe, just maybe, we're all a little tired of being tricked, be it great trickery or be it small trickery," says Virginia Lee Blood, a musician and singer in Nashville, Tenn.

More than that, though, are we setting up unrealistic expectations about the world, piece by tiny piece? How could that boring slice of real cheese be any good if it's not bright orange and doesn't "pop" with artificial Cheetos flavor? How can you be satisfied with your romantic partner when every smidgen of media in the checkout line hands you ridiculously unattainable images of human perfection? And how can you persuade a young girl who wants to grow up to sing like Beyonce that, yes, with practice and hard work she might belt out the national anthem at the inauguration or sing in a Super Bowl halftime show one day - if such performances turn out to be not entirely what they seem?

Let's Create a Singularity with our American Solidarity

Retrieved from FWD :: FWD Emails by D2R2 and the Herd

Sept. 11, 2009

We have a little less than one month to get word across our great land and into every community of the United States of America.

The Program:
On Friday, Sept. 11, 2009, American flags will be displayed outside every home, apartment, office and store in the USA.

Every individual has the duty to display an American flag on this eighth anniversary of one of our country's worst tragedies.

We shall do this in honor of those who lost their lives on 9/11. We will show respect to their families, friends, loved ones -- who continue to endure pain. Also, for those who today are fighting to guard our borders, those on foreign lands preserving our freedom, we rasie the colors that do not run.

In the days, weeks and months following 9/11, our country was bathed in American flags as citizens mourned the incredible losses and stood shoulder to shoulder against terrorism.

Sadly, flags have not been flying. Patriotism pulls Americans worldwide through tough times; attacks further galvanize us in solidarity. Lets Create a Singularity with our American Solidarity...

Our American Flag is the fabric of our land and community shared by all. Fly your flag on 9\11 and don't let your light shine any less brighter; we prevail over terrorism of any kind.

Action Plan: Here's what we will do:

1. Forward this Statement to everyone you know. Take a moment to think back to how you felt on 9/11; let those sentiments guide you.

2. Fly the colors, our American flag, of any size on 9/11. Honestly, make it a priority to do so on this day.
