...The question posed for this week’s discussion is what I would consider a mixed bag. While I feel that similarities between the partners would make for a stronger relationship I do not feel that we need to seek out our copies. What it really will boil down to is the couple’s ability to adapt and accept differences and to not see them as weaknesses but rather opportunities for growth (Olson, 2009). Paula Abdul, I realize that this dates me a bit, had a top twenty hit in 1988 titled "Opposites Attract" which has found some basis in sociological research. In an article found in Psychology Today this issue of why those who are different are drawn together is discussed, "Opposites, or perhaps more accurately, “complements” do attract...And while this can create some interesting challenges for most couples, these differences are actually the source of what is considered by many to be the source of the most important aspect of any successful relationship: chemistry" (Bloom and Bloom, 2014). This chemistry is what initiates an interaction that could lead to a lasting relationship. Those who are just like us tend to limit our ability to grow and adapt, which is needed in a healthy relationship. The PREPARE/ENRICH program allows couple to see where they have strengths but more importantly is shows where they can grow and then leaves it to the couple to decide if they are willing to work at it. When a couple leans on existing strengths in times of stress while striving through Christ-like...

...Both Jay Wadhwa and I wrote about American Idol, and its influence on today’s music scene. Although I agree with many of his points, I think his focus was far too narrow, and omitted the show’s impact on the music industry as a whole. While he makes many fair points, I think he needed to shift his thesis to center more on the music itself. Jay spends most of the essay focusing on the charitable work that the show has done. He mentions Simon Cowell helping to donate over $200 million to homelessness and poverty. Jay makes note of how powerful and influential Cowell and the show’s creator, Sam Fuller, have become. He even mentions how American Idol as a show helped aid New Orleans after the Hurricane Katrina disaster. These points are all accurate, and indeed important. However, the only thing Jay says regarding the music industry is that its reputation is boosted when its celebrities do charitable things. He neglects to include how the music scene and the musicians themselves are affected, and how the way we view music has been affected. In the first body paragraph, I feel that he spends far too much time describing Sam Fuller. While certainly relevant to American Idol, Fuller’s influence is more relevant to the entertainment industry and comes more from his wealth than his musical background. Facts such as which celebrities he manages are mostly irrelevant. Instead, he should have spent more time on describing how Simon (as well as Randy and Paula, the other two judges) have...

...LeBron James spent two days trying to figure out the right words. An assistant jotted some ideas on notecards, which were ignored. So when the moment came to deliver his MVP acceptance speech, James spoke emotionally about family, charity, history and what the Miami Heat organization means to him. And he finished with a flourish. "Heat nation, we have a bigger goal," James said. "This is very overwhelming to me as an individual award. But this is not the award I want, ultimately. I want that championship. That's all that matters to me." James accepted his third NBA MVP award Saturday, making him the eighth player in league history to win that many. The others — Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, Michael Jordan, Bill Russell, Wilt Chamberlain, Larry Bird, Magic Johnson and Moses Malone — all have won NBA titles. On Sunday, James resumes that quest. "He's going to get his," Heat President Pat Riley said. "He will get his championship. And there might be a lot more there, too." James received 85 of a possible 121 first-place votes from a panel of sports writers and broadcasters who cover the league, with fans on NBA.com combining for one vote. He earned 1,074 points, topping Oklahoma City's Kevin Durant (889 points, 24 first-place votes), the Los Angeles Clippers' Chris Paul (385, six first-place votes), the Los Angeles Lakers' Kobe Bryant (352, two first-place votes), and San Antonio's Tony Parker (331, four first-place votes).
