Entertainment 

Anything that causes enjoyment. Requires an audience, or there is no one to enjoy it. That which is enjoyable varies from audience to audience, so the precise definition of entertainment is a variable dependent upon the audience.
There is no entertainment on the planet Venus because there is no one to enjoy what ever is happening there.

If it wasn't for some very strange people, most of what is on television would not be entertainement.

Entertainment Tonight 

An entertainment show with no morals in regards to who they report about. They treat others' misery as if people want to know about it ("What is Martha Stewart doing now in jail? We've got the EXCLUSIVE details!!"). A sad show that needs to be taken off the air, and is a prime example of the stoicism in media today.
Entertainment Tonight is now running a story of how the parapalegic Terry Schiavo is supposedly bulemic right now. How dare they try to gain from a living person who is currently suffering.

The striver is an interesting phenomenon that is seen across college campuses. In essence, the striver is an over-achiever who comes from a working or middle class family. He may be an immigrant. He may have been a slacker in HS who was "born again" into an academic wunderkind. Or he may just be an over-achiever who is keeping at it.

The striver is willing to sacrifice his social life at the expense of Phi Beta Kappa and Summa Cum Laude. The striver is the guy who stays at the library long after you are gone. The striver is the guy who takes 30 credits/semester and considers anything below an A/4.0 failure. The striver doesn't work on campus, he is too busy finding ways to pad his resume instead of working retail or workstudy. The striver lets his grades pay his education by applying to ten scholarships a year.

The striver is a future Soros/Fullbright/Rhodes/Gates/Marshall/etc. fellow. The striver lives to study. For the striver, their fun comes from the rewards they expect to receive in return for their diligence. Be it Law School, B-School, academia, or politics. The striver seeks to find the American Dream through academic success.
Anthony was a striver. He transfered from a TTT to an IVY and graduated in 2 years. He studied his ass off and went to Penn Law. He got a Biglaw offer. But lost it all because of an unmoderated mesasgeboard.

Successful strivers:
- Barack Obama
- Harold Koh
