Libra

Libra is the only inanimate sign of the Zodiac and many astrologers regard it as the most desirable of all the zodiac signs. People who are born under this sign are the most civilized of the 12 zodiac signs and are often very good looking.They have elegance, charm and good taste, are naturally kind, very gentle, and lovers of beauty, and harmony.Libras also crave peace and balance in their lives and are sensitive to the feelings and needs of others. It is said they make you feel better for being with them. They hate cruelty,viciousness,vulgarity,rudeness,fake ppl, and conflict.They try to avoid conflict at all costs,but in an argument they will try to win at any cost. They are great debators which is why they make great lawyers.It is said that Libras can insult you without even you realizing you've been insulted.

liberal education

Taking classes that you will never need in life, taught by professors who think that their class is ALL you need in life.

I'm going to be a lawyer, but my Geology 101 professor's syllabus makes me believe he is under the impression we are all going to be rock scientists. Liberal education at its finest.

libidinal investment

An attachment of strong, intense emotional energies to an issue, person, concept, etc., in such a way that one pays special attention to issues surrounding it and one reacts strongly to discussions and changes affecting it. Includes, but is not limited to, sexual and sublimated sexual attachments.

The term is psychoanalytic in origin and is widely used in cultural studies.

Right-wingers often have a strong libidinal investment in the idea of authority, so that they experience threats to authority almost as if they are threatened personally. This may be due to an Oedipal fixation in which their sense of personal identity fuses with that of the father, as threatening authority-figure, so as to enable the repression of castration-threat anxiety.

Artistic liberties

A favored term of filmmakers who create films based on or around a historical event/person/era that holds little historical accuracy, usually for the sake of making the film seem more interesting than the reality it's based on, and by extension, possibly drawing in larger crowds and making more money at the box office.

Such extensive artistic liberties were taken with Sofia Coppola's "Marie Antoinette" that it was booed at Cannes.

When George Hickenlooper was questioned as to why his '06 film, "Factory Girl", had been panned so severely by Warhol scholars, he spoke of his artistic liberties taken with the film.
