During his short ten-year painting career, he produced more than 800 oil paintings and 700 drawings, but hesold only one of them in his lifetime.At the early age of sixteen, Van Gogh started to learn art dealing and had worked in the Hague, London, and Parisuntil 1876. Disliking art dealing, Van Gogh began to isolate himself and became a minister. But in 1880, he wasdismissed by his superiors and became poor. Then he began to draw. He understood the limitations of learning byhimself, so he went to Brussels to study drawing.In 1881, he went to the Hague and produced his first masterpiece, The Potato Eaters, in 1885. He then attended anart school in Belgium. Inspired by the paintings of Peter Paul Rubens at the school, he was soon off to Paris, where hemet Gauguin and found Impressionists like Camille Pissarro. Van Gogh established his personal style of painting duringhis two years’ stay in Paris.Tired of city life, Van Gogh left Paris and rented a house in Arles in the south of France.

He came from England. Aston began playing soccer when hewas a young boy. In 1936, when he was 19 years old, he hurt his ankle and stopped playing soccer. He decided to becomea referee and qualified as one in the same year. In 1946, he became the first referee to wear the black uniform with whitetrim that later became the standard for referees.As a soccer referee, Aston made an important contribution to the sport.

Every player understands what the yellow and red cards mean.Aston said he got the idea while stopping at a traffic light. He was driving home from a 1966 World Cup match. Inthat game, a German-speaking referee didn’t make his disciplinary calls clear. Some of the players could not understandhim and had confusion in mind even after the game. So Aston came up with and pushed for the idea of showing a yellowcard for an official warning and a red card for an ejection.

Plant andanimal breeders have developed organisms that provide better sources of food than the original varieties. Corn is a grassthat produces its seeds on a cob. The original corn plant had very small ears that were perhaps only three or fourcentimeters long. Through selective breeding, varieties of corn with much larger ears and more seeds per cob plant havebeen adapted to produce other kinds of corn, such as sweet corn and popcorn.Animal breeders also have had much success. The pig, chicken, and cow of today are much different animals fromthose available even 100 years ago. Chickens lay more eggs, dairy cows give more milk, and beef cattle grow faster. Allof these improvements raise our standard of living. One interesting example is the change in the kind of hogs that areraised. At one time, farmers wanted pigs that were fatty. The fat could be made into lard, soap, and various other products.As the demand for fat products of pigs declined, animal breeders developed pigs that gave a high yield of meat andrelatively little fat. Today, plant and animal breeders can produce plants and animals almost to specifications.

There are good and badhorror movies, and a good horror movie is easily distinguished from a bad one. A good horror movie, first of all, has bothmale and female victims. Both sexes suffer terrible fates at the hands of monsters and maniacs. Therefore, everyone in theaudience has a chance to identify with the victim. Bad horror movies, on the other hand, tend to concentrate on women,especially half-dressed ones. These movies are obviously prejudiced against half the human race. Second, a good horrormovie inspires compassion for its characters. For example, the audience will feel sympathy for the Wolfman’s victims andalso for the Wolfman, who is shown to be a sad victim of fate. In contrast, a bad horror movie encourages feelings ofaggression and violence in viewers. For instance, in the Halloween films, the murder scenes use the murderer’s point ofview. The effect is that the audience stalks the victims along with the killer and feels the same thrill he does. Finally, everygood horror movie has a sense of humor. In Dracula, the Count says meaningfully at dinner, “I don’t drink wine,” as hestares at a young woman’s juicy neck. Humor provides relief from the horror and makes the characters more human. Abad horror movie, though, is humorless and boring. One murder is piled on top of another, and the characters are justcardboard figures. Bad horror movies may provide cheap thrills, but the good ones touch our emotions and live forever.

For many, home computers have become synonymous with Windows and Bill Gates, but therehas always been a loyal band of Apple and Macintosh users whose devotion to the Apple brand and its co-founder StevenJobs is almost religious.Steven Jobs and Steven Wozniak dropped out of college and got jobs in Silicon Valley, where they founded theApple Computer company in 1976, the name based on Jobs’s favorite fruit. They designed the Apple I computer in Jobs’sbedroom, having raised the capital by selling their most valued possessions—an old Volkswagen bus and a scientificcalculator. The later model, the Apple Macintosh, introduced the public to point and click graphics. It was the first homecomputer to be truly user friendly, or as their advertisements put it, "the computer for the rest of us." When IBM releasedits first PC in 1981, Jobs realized that Apple would have to become a more grown-up company to compete effectively. Hebrought in John Sculley, the president of Pepsi-Cola, to do the job, asking him, "Do you want to just sell sugared water,or do you want to change the world?" Sculley and Jobs began to argue bitterly, however, and after a power struggle, Jobswas reluctantly forced to resign.By 1996 Apple was in trouble due to the dominance of Windows software and the increasing number of PC clonesthat used it. Jobs, having had great success with his animation studio Pixar, was brought back to the ailing firm for anannual salary of $1, and the company gradually returned to profitability.Apple’s computers cost more than most PCs and have a more limited range of software available for them, but theirgreat appeal has been the attention to design, making Apple the cool computer company. The launch of the stunningmulticolored iMac in 1997, followed by the sleek new iMac in 2002, marked the end of the computer as an ugly,utilitarian machine and brought the home computer out of the study and into the lounge. As Steve Jobs put it, "Othercompanies don’t care about design. We think it’s vitally important."Apple’s fortunes were transformed again with the development of the iPod in 2003 and the iPhone in 2007, whichsoon became must-have gadgets that brought about a boom in Internet music sales and transformed the cell phoneindustry. And, of course, they were beautifully stylish.

Iwas constantly hearing the comment, “Jason’s not really your brother, is he?” Not being the particularly shy and reclusivetype, I would oftentimes meet a comment like that with raised eyebrows, and a “No, Jason comes from Mars, and I wasborn right here on the planet Earth.” My brother, Jason, and I were both adopted. Jason was born in Michigan and I, inKorea. Together with my parents we made a family. I can’t say that I am really offended when people see our familytogether and inquire about it. Education has done a lot to promote the idea that families are made in many ways. Still,there are times when I wish that it were not so obvious that we are different.It wasn’t until I was in my teens that I started to realize that I came from another country, another culture, and thatgiven different circumstances, my life would be completely different. I felt different for the first time. I felt unsure aboutwho I was and had a hard time resolving that. At first I denied my heritage; I wanted to be like everyone else. Fortunatelyfor me, I have the most wonderful parents in the world! They stood by me and when I finally was ready to explore myfeelings and needs, they were there to guide and share with me. From one extreme, I went to the other, and immersedmyself in learning about my Korean heritage and the history of my birth-country. Slowly I moved towards the middleground, and am now happily at peace with who I am. I want to say, however, that having a supportive and loving familywas essential in reaching the place that I now am.

A CEO who is a great cook still orders take-out, even take-out that is not as good as what the CEO can make.The cost of cooking is not just the grocery bill. 47Consider Jane Galt, the pseudonym of an accomplished journalist who blogs on economics and policy. 48 Sherecently blogged on the best kitchen gadgets. Her descriptions made us want to buy all of them—Jane writes very welland her passion for cool stuff is contagious. A visitor to the site commented, perhaps tongue-in-cheek, that the failure ofJane to be hired as a copywriter for a kitchenware catalog was proof that markets do not work well. 49 Jane remains ajournalist precisely because markets do work well—as good as she is at writing catalog copy, she is even better atjournalism. For Jane to become a copywriter for a catalog would be very costly even though she is very good at it. Ipresume the kitchenware makers cannot pay her enough to bid her away from her day job as a journalist.50 Just because America could make fabulous televisions does not mean we should have a television industry. Thecost of producing televisions means less of something else. It might be better to make that something else and trade withforeigners for televisions.
