Spurs keen to strengthen strike force with move for England man Rodriguez .
Gino Peruzzi attracting interest from QPR .
Championship clubs queuing up for Huddersfield's Adam Clayton .
Burnley keen on Mallorca captain Emilio Nsue .
Swansea defender Neil Taylor could be on move to Premier League rivals .
Newcastle midfielder Dan Gosling set for Bournemouth switch . | Tottenham will launch a bid for Southampton striker Jay Rodriguez in the coming weeks. Although the England forward is recovering from surgery on the anterior cruciate ligament in his right knee, the White Hart Lane club are convinced he will be back in action before the end of the year. Southampton have already fielded bids of £25million from Manchester United for Luke Shaw and £20m from Liverpool for Adam Lallana and are now braced for Tottenham's opening gambit for Rodriguez. Earning his Spurs? Jay Rodriguez is a summer target for Tottenham . In good form: Rodriguez scored 17 goals for Southampton before his season was cut short by injury . The 24-year-old was in excellent form for Southampton prior to his injury scoring 17 goals and was pushing for inclusion in Roy Hodgson's World Cup squad. Tottenham, who could yet appoint Southampton coach Mauricio Pochettino as their new manager, want more homegrown players to blend with the large influx of foreign players they invested heavily in last summer. Some of those will go, with Romanian centre-back Vlad Chiriches, Erik Lamela, Etienne Capoue, Roberto Soldado and the more established Jan Vertonghen all attracting interest - predominantly from Italian clubs. Rodriguez can play from the left of the attack or behind a main striker and his pace and intelligence gave Southampton a cutting edge that had hem pushing for European contention at one stage of the season. They face a difficult summer and will be fighting off more bids with Calum Chambers, Morgan Schneiderlin, Victor Wanyama and Dejan Lovren all subject to interest from Premier League rivals. Reunited? Mauricio Pochettino and Rodriguez could both be at Spurs next season . Hammers eye move for defender Peruzzi . West Ham are showing an interest in Catania right-back Gino Peruzzi. The 21-year-old was due to sign for Sunderland last summer but the club pulled the plug on the deal as he had failed to recover sufficiently from a knee ligament operation. Argentina international Peruzzi had flown to England and agreed personal terms but medical reports meant Sunderland did not want to take a chance and a £5m move from Velez Sarsfield was put on hold. Peruzzi, however, went on to prove his fitness and secured a move to Italy for £4million. Hammer time: Catania's Gino Peruzzi (left) is a target for West Ham . He has gone on to play 22 games this season but was sent off for a second bookable offence at the weekend. Manager Sam Allardyce will hold a meeting with co-chairman David Sullivan tomorrow about the club's summer plans and will also find out about his own future. If the club wish to change manager it may mean Peruzzi will stay in Italy. Allardyce has been looking for around six new players and is also considering the likes of Norwich City's Robert Snodgrass, AC Milan striker M'Baye Niang and Southampton target Aaron Cresswell at Ipswich Town. One-time Allardyce target Josip Drmic at Nuremburg has signed for Bayer Leverkusen. Norwich, Cardiff, Wolves and Boro keen on Huddersfield's Clayton . Huddersfield are struggling to hold on to highly-rated midfielder Adam Clayton. The former Manchester City trainee has 12 months left on contract and is attracting a lot of attention from rival Championship clubs after another impressive season in which he was voted Huddersfield's player of the year. Wanted man: Huddersfield's Adam Clayton celebrates scoring is attracting interest from a number of clubs . Huddersfield rejected a £1million offer from Brighton in January for a player they bought from Leeds for £350,000 in 2012. They want him to stay but the 25-year-old is ambitious and Brighton remain keen while Norwich, Cardiff, Wolves and Middlesbrough also have an interest. Burnley set to move for Mallorca captain Nsue . Premier chance: Burnley could move for Emilio Nsue . Burnley could be poised to allow Real Mallorca captain Emilio Nsue to finally realise his Premier League dream. The 24-year-old was due to sign for Arsenal in 2009 only for personal tragedy to shatter his hopes. The former Spain U21 international had had his medical and was due to discuss terms with Arsenal when news came that his father had collapsed and died. Nsue cancelled the move to be with his grieving family and returned to Mallorca. The highly-rated right winger was part of Spain's European Championship U21 winning squad in 2011 along side Juan Mata and David de Gea but has since opted to play for Equitorial Guinea in tribute to his late father. Nsue, however, is now ready to make his mark in England and Burnley are among those to have shown interest with the possibility he can leave Mallorca for free. West Bromwich Albion have also shown an interest. Sunderland, Spurs, Southampton, West Ham and Hull keen on Swansea's Taylor . Swansea defender Neil Taylor is in demand this summer as well as teammate Ben Davies. The left-back who was the subject of a failed £4million bid from Fulham in January, is weighing up his next move ahead of a summer of change at Swansea. Taylor, who has started 18 games this season, is keen to be playing more regularly and will discuss his future with Swansea boss Garry Monk over the coming weeks. In demand: Neil Taylor could leave Swansea this summer . The 25-year-old has two years left on contract but has interest from Sunderland, Tottenham, Southampton, West Ham and Hull City. Gosling set for Bournemouth move . Dan Gosling is expected to sign for Bournemouth over the coming days. The Championship side made their first approach for the Newcastle midfielder in March and are proposing a long term contract to persuade the 24-year-old to move back to the south coast. Gosling, who began his career at Plymouth, has failed to reach his potential following his acrimonious move from Everton to Newcastle. He made 24 appearances this season including a loan spell at Blackpool where he scored two goals and has made four starts for Newcastle since returning in February. Heading south: Dan Gosling is set to join Bournemouth . QPR keen on midfielder Sammir . Queens Park Rangers are planning ahead for the summer by watching Getafe midfielder Sammir. The 27-year-old was born in Brazil but has been capped by Croatia and holds a Croatian passport. An attacking midfielder, Sammir rose to prominence at Dinamo Zagreb where he replaced Luka Modric and scored 46 goals in 173 games. Heading to England? Getafe's Jorge Sammir is being watched by QPR . He joined Getafe in February but is interested in a move to England with Getafe three points above the relegation zone with one game left. QPR are expecting a high turnover of players this summer regardless of whether they go up or stay in the Championship. Sammir, full name Jorge Sammir Cruz Campos, is affordable at around £3million. Blow for United as Reus commits future to Dortmund . Marco Reus has seemingly ruled out a summer move to Manchester United by insisting he is staying with Borussia Dortmund. United were poised to bid for the 24-year-old who has a release clause of £27.5million. Yet in an interview with Kicker-Sportmagazin, he said: 'It's safe to say I will be playing for Borussia Dortmund also in the 2014/2015 season. Staying put: Marco Reus says he is staying at Dortmund . 'Basically I do not need to stress all the time that I am feeling great being with the club. As far as leaving (Borussia Dortmund) that is no issue for me, and I am not affected by it (the transfer release clause).' |

to maintain Federal control of Fort Sumter. Free and enslaved African Americans were barred from being soldiers in the Confederacy. However, after Williams' older brother died of fever, the 10-year-old Williams took his brother's place as a Confederate officer's "boy." He ran errands for the soldiers but he was never mentioned in the remembrance of Confederate soldiers. Williams acknowledges this in his memoir: "And here I must admit I wore the 'gray.' I have never attended any of the Confederate reunions. I suppose they overlooked my name on the army roll!" Williams' childhood home on Guignard Street was destroyed by the Great Charleston Fire on December 11, 1861. This fire destroyed many of the main landmarks such as the Charleston Circular Church and Institute Hall where the Ordinance of Secession was signed, and Williams remembered it to be the biggest blaze he would ever see in Charleston. Remembering the event in his memoir, Williams describes how "the sparks seemed to rain down as we ran." Thus, Williams' memoir serves as an eye-witness account of the chaos and fear created by the Great Fire. After the War Once the Confederates surrendered, life in South Carolina changed dramatically for Williams and his family. They were reunited under one roof; Alexander Williams and his family resided on Princess Street in Charleston for many years. Williams' account of this era includes reflections about the "Black Code" or laws passed to restrict civil and social rights of freedmen. He wondered why, at least in his time when writing his memoir in the 20th century, one did not hear much about this, saying that perhaps "somebody is ashamed of it." In 1876, Williams' employer asked him to vote for General Wade Hampton. Williams chose not to vote in the election at all, even though he heard the General speak: "Our only desire he said, was to save our dear old state from utter ruin. Then, raising his right hand to heaven he said these very words as near as I can recollect, "If I am elected governor, I swear to God that not one right or privilege that you now enjoy shall be taken from you!" Williams also noted that many of the promises that General Hampton made did not come to fruition and that, in fact, acts of disenfranchisement and Jim Crow laws were being enacted against blacks during this era. Sometime in the 1880s, Williams moved to Vermont (he appears to have moved initially to Springfield VT) and soon sent for his second wife and children (several from his first marriage and perhaps some step children or children from his second wife)to join him. While not much is known about his life in Vermont, he and his eldest daughter Susan show up in the 1910 census, living in Lebanon, NH where they worked as servants for the Carter family. In Vermont, both worked for author Thomas H. Thomas. They were listed in the 1920 United States Federal Census, living in Windsor with the Thomas Family. Williams appears to have moved to Cambridge, Massachusetts in the 1920s with his daughter Susan, who married an African-American lawyer/dentist named William Alexander Cox. Cox was also heavily involved in the National Negro Business League. Autobiography After an illness weakened Williams' eyes and he feared going blind, he decided to record events from his past. He was also motivated in writing his memoir by the desire to remind future generations of African Americans of the cruel experience of slavery, a reason disclosed in the memoir's preface: "It is a remarkable fact that very many of the immediate descendants of those who passed through the trying ordeal of American slavery know nothing of the hardships through which their fathers came. Some reason for this may be found in the fact that those fathers hated to harrow the minds of their children by the recital of their cruel experiences of those dark days.... While it is sweet to forgive and forget, there are somethings that should never be forgotten. If this humble narrative will serve to cause the youth of my people to take a glance backward, the object of the writer will have been attained." Williams' memoir, written in | the time. During his early childhood, his mother and older brother worked with her owners while he remained in his grandmother's care because he was too young for any practical use. Williams held some good memories of his early years, saying that of the family that enslaved him and his relatives, they were "of all slave holders, the very best." The younger children had almost all of their time free to play. Early on, Williams would play with the neighbor's white children, and later with other black children on the plantation that to which he moved. However, Sam makes sure to clearly indicate, "There is nothing good to be said of American slavery. I know it is sometimes customary to speak of its bright and its dark sides. I am not prepared to admit that it had any bright sides, unless it was the Emancipation Proclamation issued by President Abraham Lincoln..." In his early childhood, while the four white children Williams played with were at school, Williams was taught how to read and write by the three unmarried white ladies who were most likely part of the family that enslaved Williams' father. He was taught using only one book, which he called "Thomas Dilworth's," referring to A New Guide to the English Tongue by Thomas Dilworth. From the book, Williams claims he learned about grammar, weights and measures, ciphers, and morals. In addition, Williams describes the popular use of slates for his lessons, as well as his fascination with fable illustrations that instructed what was moral and what was not: "...such as that of the man who prayed to Hercules to take his wagon out of the mire; of the two men who stole a piece of meat; of the lazy maids and of the kindhearted man who took a half frozen serpent into his house." He also states many slaves were punished for being found in possession of the schoolbook, though the reward of mastering the book was being considered a "prodigy of learning" within the slave community. Of his owner, Williams stated: "Mr. Ward was what was called a 'good master.' His people were well-fed, well-housed, and not over-worked. There were certain inflexible rules however, governing his plantation of which he allowed not the slightest infraction, for he had his place for the Negro... His place for the Negro was in subjection and servitude to the white man." Williams alludes to his master's classism, pointing out that his white supremacy ideology did not extend to all whites and that there were some he would have barred from slaveholding. Ward, like many other slaveholders, asserted his role as owner and enslaver with a paternalistic view. He provided well for his slaves while demanding complete obedience. Ward, for example, took care to always know their whereabouts by insisting he authorize any departure from his land and as Williams depicts in his memoir, Ward had no qualms about punishing those slaves he felt defied him. As a boy, Williams learned to ride horses from one of his enslavers. Williams states, "He taught me to ride, and when I could sit my horse well 'bare-back' he had a saddle made for me at the then famous 'McKinzie's' saddlery, sign of the 'White Horse' at the corner of Church and Chalmers Street." This training to ride was not wholly unique to Williams' experience. In fact, enslaved people were essential to the world of horse racing in the American South. Jockeys and trainers were commonly enslaved people. Despite limited privileges, these enslaved horse riders were still subjected to the realities of being slaves in a slave society. Williams never became a formal jockey, however, and of this he says the following: "Possibly Mr. Dane had 'views', concerning me for he owned several fast horses, but before I was old enough to be of practical service, 'Sherman came marching through Georgia.'" During the War Williams recounts his arriving in Charleston one day to find that "men were going about the streets wearing blue cockades on the lapels of their coats." This was his first realization that there was a war going on, though the effects (amazingly high prices for everything and the disappearance of many of the young men to go fight) had been felt for a while. Williams recounts the conversations between other enslaved men and women at this time regarding the impending war and their support of the Union officer General Robert Anderson, who defied the Confederacy by trying to maintain Federal control of Fort Sumter. Free and enslaved African Americans were barred from being soldiers in the Confederacy. However, after Williams' older brother died of fever, the 10-year-old Williams took his brother's place as a Confederate officer's "boy." He ran errands for the soldiers but he was never mentioned in the remembrance of Confederate soldiers. Williams acknowledges this in his memoir: "And here I must admit I wore the 'gray.' I have never attended any of the Confederate reunions. I suppose they overlooked my name on the army roll!"

Can you give me suggestions to deal with anger? | I find exercise works wonders - it really does.\n\nI've been in the same position of having things sometimes that just set you off...I tend to think it's a lot of stress that's built up to flashpoint - then triggered. \n\nIt might be tempting to tackle the problem while you are mad...but don't...it'll make it worse.\n\nInstead...go for a walk. Not just around the block, but a nice long walk. Don't have to powerwalk or anything, and don't have to go anywhere in particular, just go for a wander...I sometimes just wander around for a couple of hours at a time and it feels a lot better...you'll expend your energy through your legs, not your mouth that way... :-) \n\nSometimes if you're really upset though, walking just isn't enough - you really need to work harder to let it out. In those cases, I sometimes swim laps of the pool - it's great for your fitness and it'll literally cool you down! Plus you'll work your whole body hard - so you'll feel better. Or if you need some more cathartic release, squash is great too... :-) don't play it as a game necessarily but go to your local sports centre, hire a racquet and court and just belt the ball around until you feel better! \n\nDo you have an open wood fire? Even if it's summer, I find that getting some blocks of wood and chopping them up with an axe or woodsplitter is a great release - good exercise again, it achieves a task and the force required really lets out your anger. \n\nThe big benefit of exercise is that while you're getting your anger out, you're also getting fit...so it's a double benefit. Some people suggest things like watching TV or even yelling it out but I think that isn't as effective...watching TV is too passive, while yelling will stress you more...\n\nHope this helps! :-) \n\nBelieve me, it works. |

Wigan set to bid for Chelsea midfielder George Saville . | By . SIMON JONES . Victor Wanyama wants to follow Mauricio Pochettino from Southampton to Tottenham. The Kenyan midfielder made it clear his week that he felt Saints should have done more to keep the Argentinian boss. Wanyama has benefited under Pochettino's coaching where he has been used as a defensive screen in midfield and has notably reduced the number of goals Southampton concede when in the side. Earning his Spurs? Victor Wanyama (left) may follow his former boss Mauricio Pochettino to Tottenham . And could use Suso as part of deal with Sevilla . He joined for £12million last summer and has struggled to settle though Pochettino has become a key figure in his career. Tottenham have question marks over the future of Chelsea target Paulinho, Sandro and Etienne Capoue who are both being considered by Napoli . Wanyama said: 'I learnt a lot from him, he taught me more and that's why I have grown as a player and there is a big difference compared to when I was at Celtic. Talking to Capital Sport, he added: 'He played a big role in my career development. 'I wanted him to remain because he had the passion for the club and I think the owners should not have let him go because the team can do better next season. It's a big blow because he had good connection with the players.' Gone: Mauricio Pochettino left Southampton to take charge at St Mary's this week . Southampton already have offers for Luke . Shaw and Adam Lallana while Jay Rodriguez, Dejan Lovren, Morgan . Schneiderlin, Calum Chambers and Rickie Lambert are all attracting . attention from other clubs too. Southampton's board cannot afford to let . all of them go despite the temptation and that could affect Wanyama's . hopes. The 22-year-old had also been the subject of interest from Manchester City earlier in the season but they have been looking at other targets and a move to White Hart Lane would be his ideal. Southampton chairman Ralph Krueger said: 'We are in control of all the player transfers. All the top players are under long term contracts. Any transfers that take place will be under our terms. We will decide the terms to potential transfers in and out of the club. 'We will involve the manager. That is important for everybody to know. That's why we have been able to not agree to any transfers to date, because we have control of the situation, and anybody who is saying anything else doesn't understand that we are in a strong position with the Saints.' Erik Lamela will not be allowed to leave Tottenham on loan but the club are willing to sell for around £25million. That's the information being . circulated around Italian clubs at the moment and was reported on Sky . Italia on Thursday. Lamela's fortunes may change though under the tutelage of . Mauricio Pochettino, who knows the player well. Spurs misfit . Roberto Soldado remains keen to go with Atletico Madrid very much in the . frame. They have an interest in Romelu Lukaku but the Chelsea striker . is understood to be reluctant to go to Spain. Franco Baldini's role at Tottenham remains under question. Ending their White Hart pain: Erik Lamela can leave Spurs for £25m, while Atletico want Roberto Soldado . Manchester City have taken encouragement in developments with Mehdi Benatia at Roma. Sportsmail reported City's interest in Benatia earlier this month as an alternative to Eiaquim Mangala of Porto who has declared a desire to join Chelsea. Benatia, 27, is facing a fine from his club after an outburst in the Italian papers regarding the club's contract offer. The France-born Morocco defender said: 'I never said I want to leave. But Roma have not kept their promises. They had told me that they would make me a new contract offer if I had a great season. 'My agent is doing his job, I could go away but I could also stay and finish my career in Roma. But I was disappointed (with the new wage offer), I deserved more respect. 'I have received an unacceptable proposal, less than €3million per season. I replied that I would not sign it. Developments: Manchester City target Mehdi Benatia is unhappy with Roma's contract offer . 'I'm in love with Roma, I'm very fine here but my mistake was to be too correct with the club and too honest.' Regarding speculation about him leaving, he added: 'I only said that anyone dreams of teams like Real, Bayern and City. 'My agent is doing his job, I could leave but I could also stay and finish my career in Roma. But I was disappointed (with the new wage offer), I deserved more respect.' City remain interested in Malaga goalkeeper Willy Caballero also as competition for Joe Hart with Costel Pantilimon ready to look at a new club with Arsenal among those to have shown interest - although they have a few names on their list. City are also understood to be exploring the possibility of . signing David Villa for their New York City franchise. Villa, 32, has . just won the Spanish league title and is looking at his next challenge. City's franchise will be ready next year and they are recruiting big . names now. Carles Puyol and Xavi have also been mooted with . both players keen on the MLS project. Sportsmail revealed that David . Beckham was keen to get Xavi involved in his Miami franchise but that . may be too far ahead for the 34-year-old. Xavi is due to hold . talks over his future with new coach Luis Enrique prior to making his . decision.

The . 20-year-old is in the final year of his contract Stamford Bridge and . they are ready to sell rather than loan him out again. Saville had a . successful loan spell at Brentford last season and Uwe Rosler has kept . him mind ahead of his plans for the Championship next season. The German is keen to stay at the DW Stadium and build for promotion again after going so close this year. Saville . is also attracting interest from Wolves and Chelsea would be looking . for around £750,000 with the price eventually rising to £1million. Road to Wigan: Chelsea's George Saville, here on loan at Brentford, is wanted by Uwe Rosler at the DW . Former Liverpool and Oldham . goalkeeper Dean Bouzanis will return to Australia after signing a . two-year A-League deal with the Western Sydney Wanderers.

Premier League and Championship clubs are keeping a check on St Patrick's Athletic winger Christopher Forrester. Scouts are expected at Friday night's game in Dublin with Derry City and the 21-year-old is understood to be the main attraction. Everton and Sunderland have a long-held interest but West Ham and Leeds have also checked on his progress.

from you, you are less likely to compare yourself to that person (Hypothesis III). He next hypothesized that there is a unidirectional drive upward in the case of abilities, which is largely absent in opinions. This drive refers to the value that is placed on doing better and better. (Hypothesis IV). Next, Festinger hypothesizes that there are non-social restraints that make it difficult or even impossible to change one's ability and these restraints are largely absent for opinions. In other words, people can change their opinions when they want to but no matter how motivated individuals may be to improve their ability, there may be other elements that make this impossible (Hypothesis V). Festinger goes on to hypothesize that the cessation of comparison with others is accompanied by hostility or derogation to the extent that continued comparison with those persons implies unpleasant consequences (Hypothesis VI). Next, any factors which increase the importance of some particular group as a comparison group from some particular opinion or ability will increase the pressure toward uniformity concerning that ability or opinion within that group. If discrepancies arise between the evaluator and comparison group there is a tendency to reduce the divergence by either attempting to persuade others, or changing their personal views to attain uniformity. However, the importance, relevance and attraction to a comparison group that affects the original motivation for comparison, mediates the pressures towards uniformity (Hypothesis VII). His next hypothesis states that if persons who are very divergent from one's own opinion or ability are perceived as different from oneself on attributes consistent with the divergence, the tendency to narrow the range of comparability becomes stronger (Hypothesis VIII). Lastly, Festinger hypothesized that when there is a range of opinion or ability in a group, the relative strength of the three manifestations of pressures toward uniformity will be different for those who are close to the mode of the group than for those who are distant from the mode. Those close to the mode will have stronger tendencies to change the positions of others, weaker tendencies to narrow the range of comparison, and even weaker tendencies to change their own opinions (Hypothesis IX). Theoretical advances Since its inception, the initial framework has undergone several advances. Key among these are developments in understanding the motivations that underlie social comparisons, and the particular types of social comparisons that are made. Motives that are relevant to social comparison include self-enhancement, maintenance of a positive self-evaluation, components of attributions and validation, and the avoidance of closure. While there have been changes in Festinger's original concept, many fundamental aspects remain, including the prevalence of the tendency towards social comparison and the general process that is social comparison. Self-evaluation According to Thorton and Arrowood, self-evaluation is one of the functions of social comparison. This is one process that underlies how an individual engages in social comparison. Each individual's specific goals will influence how they engage in social comparison. For self-evaluation, people tend to choose a comparison target that is similar to themselves. Specifically, they are most interested in choosing a target who shares some distinctive characteristic with themselves. Research suggests that most people believe that choosing a similar target helps ensure the accuracy of the self-evaluation. However, individuals do not always act as unbiased self-evaluators, and accurate self-evaluations may not be the primary goal of social comparison. Self-enhancement Individuals may also seek self-enhancement, or to improve their self-esteem. They may interpret, distort, or ignore the information gained by social comparison to see themselves more positively and further their self-enhancement goals. They will also choose to make upward (comparing themselves to someone better off) or downward (comparing themselves to someone worse off) comparisons, depending on which strategy will further their self-enhancement goals. They may also avoid making comparisons period, or avoid making certain types of comparisons. Specifically, when an individual believes that their ability in a specific area is low, they will avoid making upward social comparisons in that area. Unlike for self-evaluation goals, people engaging in social comparison with the goal of self-enhancement may not seek out a target that is similar to themselves. In fact, if a target's similarity is seen as a threat, due to the target outperforming the individual on some dimension, the individual may downplay the similarity of the target to themselves. This notion ties closely to the phenomena in psychology introduced also by Leon Festinger himself as it relates to the diminishing of cognitive dissonance. One does not want to perceive oneself in a way which would downplay one's original belief upon which one's self-esteem is based and therefore in order to reduce the cognitive dissonance, one is willing to change the cognitive representation of the other person whom one compares oneself to, such that one's own belief about oneself remains intact. This effectively leads to the comparison of apples to oranges or psychological denial. Later advances in theory led to self-enhancement being one of the four self-evaluation motives:, along with self-assessment, self-verification, and self-improvement. Upward and downward social comparisons Wills introduced the concept of downward comparison in 1981. Downward social comparison is a defensive tendency that is used as a means of self-evaluation. When a person looks to another individual or group that they consider to be worse off than themselves in order to feel better about their self or personal situation, they are making a downward social comparison. Research has suggested that social comparisons with others who are better off or superior, or upward comparisons, can lower self-regard, whereas downward comparisons can elevate self-regard. Downward comparison theory emphasizes the positive effects of comparisons in increasing one's subjective well-being. For example, it has been found that breast cancer patients made the majority of comparisons with patients less fortunate than themselves. Although social comparison research has suggested that upward comparisons can lower self-regard, Collins indicates that this is not always the case. Individuals make upward comparisons, whether consciously or subconsciously, when they compare themselves with an individual or comparison group that they perceive as superior or better than themselves in order to improve their views of self or to create a more positive perception of their personal reality. Upward social comparisons are made to self-evaluate and self-improve in the hopes that self-enhancement will also occur. In an upward social comparison, people want to believe themselves to be part of the elite or superior, and make comparisons highlighting the similarities between themselves and the comparison group, unlike a downward social comparison, where similarities between individuals or groups are disassociated. It has also been suggested that upward comparisons may provide an inspiration to improve, and in one study it was found that while breast cancer patients made more downward comparisons, they showed a preference for information about more fortunate others. Another study indicated that people who were dieting often used upward social comparisons by posting pictures of thinner people on their refrigerators. These pictures served as not only a reminder of an individuals current weight, but also as an inspiration of a goal to be reached. In simple terms, downward social comparisons are more likely to make us feel better about ourselves, while upward social comparisons are more likely to | comparison process. Proxy model The proxy model anticipates the success of something that is unfamiliar. The model proposes that if a person is successful or familiar with a task, then he or she would also be successful at a new similar task. The proxy is evaluated based on ability and is concerned with the question "Can I do X?" A proxy's comparison is based previous attributes. The opinion of the comparer and whether the proxy exerted maximum effort on a preliminary task are variables influencing his or her opinion. Triadic model The Triadic Model builds on the attribution elements of social comparison, proposing that opinions of social comparison are best considered in terms of 3 different evaluative questions: preference assessment (i.e., "Do I like X?"), belief assessment (i.e., "Is X correct?"), and preference prediction (i.e., "Will I like X?"). In the Triadic Model the most meaningful comparisons are with a person who has already experienced a proxy and exhibits consistency in related attributes or past preferences. Three-selves model The three-selves model proposes that social comparison theory is a combination of two different theories. One theory is developed around motivation and the factors that influence the type of social comparison information people seek from their environment and the second is about self-evaluation and the factors that influence the effects of social comparisons on the judgments of self. While there has been much research in the area of comparison motives, there has been little in the area of comparative evaluation. Explaining that the self is conceived as interrelated conceptions accessible depending upon current judgment context and taking a cue from Social Cognitive Theory, this model examines the Assimilation effect and distinguishes three classes of working Self-concept ideas: individual selves, possible selves and collective selves. Social Affiliation When individuals are in an ambiguous and confusing situation, they affiliate with others to gain the information they need. However, the type of person they choose to affiliate with depends on factors such as anxiety, embarrassment, and the perceived knowledge the other individual possesses. Misery Loves Company When in a situation that induces anxiety, individuals typically choose to affiliate with others. In a study conducted by Schatcher (1959), women were told they were participating in a study investigating electrical shocks. Participants were in either the low anxiety condition, participants were told the shock would be a tingle and the room had no electrical equipment, or a high anxiety condition, participants were told the shock would hurt and the room contained a lot of electrical equipment. The participants were then asked if they wished to wait alone or with others. More participants in the high anxiety condition, two-thirds, chose to affiliate than the low anxiety condition, one-third. Misery Loves Miserable Company A high anxiety situation increases affiliation. However, participants are more likely to affiliate with individuals who can give them information about the anxiety inducing information and face the same threat as them. This finding was investigated by increasing anxiety in all participants by putting them in a room with a lot of electrical equipment and informing them that the shock will hurt. The participants were then divided into two conditions: The similar condition where they could wait with others who were awaiting shocks and dissimilar where they could wait with others who were awaiting a meeting with their professor. Sixty percent of the participants in the similar condition affiliated, while none of the dissimilar participants did. Embarrassed Misery Avoids Company Embarrassment can decrease affiliation in some situations, even when the situation is ambiguous and confusing. The effect of embarrassment was investigated by assigning participants to one of three conditions. The fear condition involved a room containing electrical equipment and sexual information sheets. The ambiguous condition involved a room containing boxes filled with forms. The embarrassment condition involved a room containing sexual devices and paraphernalia. As expected, those in the fear condition affiliated the most, followed by those in the ambiguous condition. However, those in the embarrassment condition spend affiliated very little, despite the anxiety the situation induced. Media influence The media has been found to play a large role in social comparisons. Researchers examining the social effects of the media have used social comparison theory have found that in most cases women tend to engage in upward social comparisons with a target other, which results in more negative feelings about the self. The majority of women have a daily opportunity to make upward comparison by measuring themselves against some form of societal ideal. Social comparisons have become a relevant mechanism for learning about the appearance-related social expectations among peers and for evaluating the self in terms of those standards. (Jones, 2001, P. 647). Although men do make upward comparisons, research finds that more women make upward comparisons and are comparing themselves with unrealistically high standards presented in the media. As women are shown more mainstream media images of powerful, successful and thin women, they perceive the "ideal" to be the norm for societal views of attractive. In recent years, social media platforms such as Facebook and Instagram have made this more widespread, since social media makes it easier to compare yourself to the "ideal". Some women have reported making upward comparisons in a positive manner for the purposes of self-motivation, but the majority of upward comparisons are made when the individual is feeling lesser and therefore evoke a negative connotation. Self-perceived similarities with role models on social media can also affect self-esteem for both men and women. Having more self-perceived similarities with a role model can help increase self-esteem, while having less can decrease self-esteem. Social comparison with peers on social media can also lead to feelings of self-pity or satisfaction. The desire for social comparison can cause FoMO and compulsive checking of social media sites. Criticisms Many criticisms arose regarding Festinger's similarity hypothesis. Deutsch and Krauss argued that people actually seek out dissimilar others in their comparisons maintaining that this is important for providing valuable self-knowledge, as demonstrated in research. Ambiguity also circulated about the important dimensions for similarity. Goethals |

the right-of-way of CR 8, which continues north towards Minetto. NY 176 meanwhile, proceeds east out of Bowens Corners, crossing a large farm in the town of Granby, where it turns to the northeast. The route becomes primarily residential after Chipper Road, while intersecting with the northern terminus of CR 55 (Jacksonville Road). After this intersection, the route becomes rural again, continuing northeast through Granby. Intersecting with the northern terminus of CR 14 (Ley Creek Road), NY 176 crosses a railroad grade and enters the city of Fulton. In Fulton, NY 176 gains the moniker of Curtis Street, becoming a two-lane residential street. NY 176 passes through four city blocks before intersecting with NY 48 (West First Street) on the shores of the Oswego River. This intersection serves as the northern terminus of NY 176. History When NY 176 was originally assigned as part of the 1930 renumbering of state highways in New York, it encompassed only its modern routing between NY 370 near Meridian and NY 48 in Fulton. The route was extended north through Fulton on NY 48, NY 3, 7th Street, and Whittaker Road to the Scriba hamlet of South Scriba, where it ended at a simple four-way intersection with modern CR 4. The northward extension of NY 176 was eliminated on April 1, 1980, as part of a highway maintenance swap between the state of New York and Oswego County. In the swap, ownership and maintenance of NY 176 north of the Fulton city line was transferred from the state to the county in exchange for maintenance of the portions of NY 3 and NY 34 between the Cayuga–Oswego County line and NY 104. NY 176 was truncated to its junction with NY 48 south of Fulton following the swap while the former routing of NY 176 between the Fulton city line and | of the route is at an intersection with NY 370 in the northeast part of the town of Cato, east of Meridian. Its northern terminus is at a junction with NY 48 in the city of Fulton. The route used to extend north from its current northern terminus to NY 3 three-quarters of a mile to the north and, earlier, to a northern terminus at County Route 4 (CR 4) in the town of Scriba, east of the city of Oswego. Route description NY 176 begins at an intersection with NY 370 in the town of Cato. NY 176 proceeds northwest through Cato as a two-lane rural roadway, passing several farms in each direction, along with a large pond. A short distance later, NY 176 crosses the town line out of Cato into Ira, remaining the two-lane farm road, but turning northeast. NY 176 runs near the shore of a large pond in Ira, crossing an intersection with County Route 38 (CR 38; Ira Hill Road / Lysander Road). NY 176 continues north through Ira, crossing several farms before crossing the county line into Oswego County. Now in Oswego County, NY 176 is in the town of Hannibal and immediately into the hamlet of South Hannibal. In South Hannibal, the route makes a gradual bend to the east at a junction with CR 7. South Hannibal consists of a few homes along NY 176 and CR 7, until NY 176 leaves the hamlet eastbound. Continuing through Hannibal, NY 176 becomes |

The station is located within a Quiet Zone, so all trains (including Utah Transit Authority's FrontRunner and Union Pacific's) do not routinely sound their horns when approaching public crossings within this corridor although they do sound their bells. Even though UTA's FrontRunner commuter rail line uses the same right-of-way through downtown Provo that is used by the California Zephyr, UTA built a separate station of the same name. That station is located one block east on the south side of the tracks. However, there is easy pedestrian access between the two stations and the UTA connecting intra-county and local bus routes. The FrontRunner provides commuter rail service north to Salt Lake City and Ogden, and stops in between. History The station is on the site of a previous station constructed by the Denver and Rio Grande Western Railroad in 1910. This building remained in use until 1986 when, increasingly dilapidated, it was demolished. The station was little more than a plexiglas bus shelter along the tracks until 2002, when it was replaced by three decorative shelters, one of which is mostly enclosed and heated. The new station opened 14 May 2002 and cost $120,000 with funds coming from Provo City, Amtrak, and a federal grant. In-kind contributions were also provided by Provo City. Beginning in 1983, both the Desert Wind (with service from Chicago to Los Angeles) and the Pioneer (with service from Chicago to Seattle) previously stopped at the Provo Station. Service by the Pioneer was dropped when that train was rerouted through Wyoming in 1991 (the train was later discontinued altogether in 1997). Service by the Desert Wind ended when Amtrak discontinued that train in 1997 (at the same time as the Pioneer was discontinued).

or overspending in the short-term at the expense of longer term health and financial security outcomes. In addition, individual projections about the future tend to be inaccurate. When the future is uncertain they may overestimate the likelihood of salient or desirable outcomes, and are generally overly optimistic about the future, for example assuming that they will have more time and money in the future than they will in actuality. However research indicates that there are several ways to structure choice architecture to compensate for or reduce these biases. For example, researchers demonstrated improved decision-making by drawing attention to the future outcomes of decisions or by emphasizing second best options. In addition, limited time offers can be successful in reducing procrastination. Partitioning options and attributes The ways in which options and attributes are grouped influence the choices that are made. Examples of such partitioning of options include the division of a household budget into categories (e.g. rent, food, utilities, transportation etc.), or categories of investments within a portfolio (e.g. real estate, stocks, bonds, etc.), while examples of partitioning attributes include the manner in which attributes are grouped together for example a label may group several related attributes together (e.g. convenient) or list them individually (e.g. short running time, little cleanup, low maintenance). The number and type of these categories is important because individuals have a tendency to allocate scarce resources equally across them. People tend to divide investments over the options listed in 401K plans they favor equal allocation of resources and costs across individuals (all else being equal), and are biased to assign equal probabilities to all events that could occur. As a result, aggregate consumption can be changed by the number and types of categorizations. For instance, car buyers can be nudged toward more responsible purchases by itemizing practical attributes (gas mileage, safety, warranty etc.) and aggregating less practical attributes (i.e. speed, radio, and design are grouped together as "stylishness"). Avoiding attribute overload Consumers would optimally consider all of a product's attributes when deciding between options. However, due to cognitive constraints, consumers may face similar challenges in weighing many attributes to those of evaluating many choices. As a result, choice architects may choose to limit the number of attributes, weighing the cognitive effort required to consider multiple attributes against the value of improved information. This may present challenges if consumers care about different attributes, but online forms that allow consumers to sort by different attributes should minimize the cognitive effort to evaluate many options without losing choice. Translating attributes The presentation of information about attributes can also reduce the cognitive effort associated with processing and reduce errors. This can generally be accomplished by increasing evaluability and comparability of attributes. One example is to convert commonly used metrics into those that consumers can be assumed to care about. For example, choice architects might translate non-linear metrics (including monthly credit payments or miles per gallon) into relevant linear metrics (in this case the payback period associated with a credit payment or the gallons per 100 miles). Choice architects can also influence decisions by adding evaluative labels (e.g. good versus bad or high versus low) to numerical metrics, explicitly calculating consequences (for instance translating energy consumption into greenhouse gas emissions), or by changing the scale of a metric (for instance listing monthly cost versus yearly cost). Examples The concept of choice architecture exists in a number of fields. See for example the work of B. J. Fogg on computers as persuasive technologies; the concept of permission marketing as described by Seth Godin. Choice Architecture is also similar to the concept of "heuristics," or manipulation that changes outcomes without changing people's underlying preferences, described by political scientist William H. Riker. Choice architecture has been implemented in several public and private policy domains. Variants of the Save More Tomorrow Plan (conceived by Richard Thaler and Shlomo Benartzi), which has individuals commit in advance to allocate a portion of future salary increases to savings, have been adopted by companies to increase employee retirement savings. Lev Virine | preferences across consumers. There are examples of consumers faring worse with many options rather than fewer in social-security investments and Medicare drug plans As consumption decisions increasingly move online, consumers are relying upon search engines and product recommendation systems to find and evaluate products and services. These types of search and decision aids both reduce the time and effort associated with information search, but also have the power to subtly shape decisions dependent upon what products are presented, the context of the presentation, and the way that they are ranked and ordered. For example, research on consumer goods like wine has shown that the expansion of online retailing has made it simpler for consumers to gather information on products and compare alternatives, making them more responsive to price and quality information. Defaults A large body of research has shown that, all things being equal, consumers are more likely to choose default options. A default is defined as a choice frame in which one selection is pre-selected so that individuals must take active steps to select another option. Defaults can take many forms ranging from the automatic enrollment of college students in university health insurance plans to forms which default to a specific option unless changed. Several mechanisms have been proposed to explain the influence of defaults. For example, individuals may interpret defaults as policymaker recommendations, cognitive biases related to loss aversion like the status quo bias or endowment effect might be at work, or consumers may fail to opt-out of the default due to associated effort. It is important to note that these mechanisms are not mutually exclusive and their relative influence will likely differ across decision contexts. Types of default include simple defaults where one choice is automatically selected for all consumers, forced choice in which a product or service is denied until the consumer makes a proactive selection, and sensory defaults in which the choice is pre-selected based upon other information that was gathered about specific consumers. Choices that are made repeatedly may also be affected by defaults, for instance, persistent defaults may be continually reset regardless of past decisions, whereas reoccurring defaults "remember" past decisions for use as the default, and predictive defaults use algorithms to set defaults based upon other related behavior. One of the most commonly cited studies on the power of defaults is the example of organ donation. One study found that donor registration rates were twice as high when potential donors had to opt out versus opt into donor registration. However, the influence of defaults has been demonstrated across a range of domains including investment and insurance Choice over time Choices with outcomes that manifest in the future will be influenced by several biases. For example, individuals tend to be myopic, preferring positive outcomes in the present often at the expense of future outcomes. This may lead to behaviors like overeating or overspending in the short-term at the expense of longer term health and financial security outcomes. In addition, individual projections about the future tend to be inaccurate. When the future is uncertain they may overestimate the likelihood of salient or desirable outcomes, and are generally overly optimistic about the future, for example assuming that they will have more time and money in the future than they will in actuality. However research indicates that there are several ways to structure choice architecture to compensate for or reduce these biases. For example, researchers demonstrated improved decision-making by drawing attention to the future outcomes of decisions or by emphasizing second best options.
