Sweet Lolita (or Ama Lolita) is a Japanese fashion type that is characterized by light-colored, modest, cute-appearing dress with a lot of lace and frills. This is typically limited to Japanese teen and young adult women, but rarely guys may adopt this style too. The true sweet Lolita (as contrasted with the Gothic Lolita) tends to favor white or pink base colors with floral embroidery and concentrate on looking as sweet and cute as possible. The fabric used may consist of not just solid colors but floral and fruit prints, resulting in an appearance that is extremely sweet and like Victorian little girls. The character Momoko in Kamikaze Girls (Shimotsuma Monogatari) is an example of someone who is the true sweet Lolita.

The “Duke of Marlborough Effect” was mentioned by Richard Dawkins to refer to the increase in masculine libido that results from experiencing a victory, whether directly or vicariously. This was so-named from an entry in the Duchess of Marlborough’s diary, “His Grace returned from the wars today and pleasured me twice in his top-boots.” Male athletes tend to experience elevated testosterone levels before a contest; those who win tend to maintain afterwards those elevated testosterone levels, but the testosterone levels of losers drops dramatically afterwards.
There will likely be a lot of canoodling in Old Boston now that the Red Sox have won the Series due to the Duke of Marlborough effect and the subsequent release of proper Bostonian inhibitions.

Parkinson's law is an administrative principle that states that work tends to expand in relation to the time available for its completion. From C. Northcote Parkinson, a professor of the University of Malaysia, who first wrote of this law. While Parkinson, like Laurence J. Peter, apparently wrote his book as a satire on administration, unfortunately it turned out to be true.
It's a sad rule of corporations, and universities are not exempt, that the administrative apparatus tends to expand with time. Unfortunately, this is accompanied by stasis in what is accomplished. Parkinson's law holds true.
