WALTER SCOTT ASKS...
SHARONOSBOURNE
Sharon Osbourne, 62, has become a media
darling since first appearing on MTV’s
The Osbournes in 2002. Since then,
she’s served as a judge on America’s
Got Talent, appeared on NBC’s
CelebrityApprentice and is
currently one of the hosts of the CBS
weekday chat fest The Talk.
It’s a new year, and you’ve lost 25
pounds on the Atkins diet. “Losing
25 pounds, especially at my age,
takes longer than when you’re in
your 20s, 30s and 40s.”
Which of the accomplishments
Osbourne with
of your children (Aimee,
husband Ozzy
Kelly and Jack)
Email your questions for Walter Scott to [email protected].
have made you
the proudest?
“I’m proud of my kids no matter what, whether they have successful careers or they
don’t. I am proud of them as human beings because they’re good people.”
How are you and Ozzy taking to being grandparents of Jack’s 2-year-old daughter,
Pearl? “It’s the best. It’s been a gift to us, and I want to be as healthy as I can because
I don’t want to be left out of the fun. I want to be a part of what she does.”
What about The Osbournes returning to TV on VH-1? “It’s an update on what we’re all
doing now, how the family has grown, looking back on the way we were and the way
we are now. We hope to do about six to eight episodes, and then, in another five years,
give another glimpse.”
You’ve always been very outspoken. Do you ever regret some of the things
you say? “I don’t want to hurt people with my opinion, so if I hurt people, it’s not
something I intend to do. I like to be outspoken. I’m not afraid to say anything.”
Q: After six years on
Modern Family, how does
Eric Stonestreet feel
about playing Cam?
—Justin M., Tulsa, Okla.
A: The Kansas City, Kan.,
native, 43, is still having a
great time as the quippy
gay partner on the hit
Wednesday-night ABC
sitcom. And when the
show’s not filming, he
gets a chance to explore
movie roles. Coming
up, Stonestreet is in the
thriller The Loft, opening
Jan. 23, in which he plays
a character who drinks
too much and cheats on
his wife. “I thought it was
a good opportunity to play
a darker guy,” he says.
Q
Tell me about
Allen Leech
from the movie
The Imitation
Game. He looks
familiar.
—Timothy O., St. Louis
A: If you watch Downton
Abbey, you’ll recognize
Leech as Tom Branson,
Lady Sybill’s estatemanager widower in
the hit Sunday-night
PBS series. The Killiney,
Ireland-born actor, 33,
originally planned to be
an architect (“for my
parents,” he says), but
abandoned that plan
to study acting. He was
also in HBO’s
Rome and
Showtime’s
The Tudors.

Ebola (and zombies and crashing meteors)
should be the least of your worries this
year. Here’s why—plus what you should
really be biting your nails about.
4 | JANUARY 18, 2015
© PARADE Publications 2015. All rights reserved
SAUL HERRERA/ISTOCK PHOTOS
L
ast fall, when Ebola came to town, it was
as if the entire nation had a conniption.
On Sept. 30, the Centers for Disease
Control and Prevention confirmed that
a Liberian citizen visiting family was sick
with the deadly virus. Within weeks, more
than half of adults believed there would be a
widespread outbreak of Ebola within a year.
Others were scared stiff, glued to the glow
of their news-spewing screens like deer in
headlights, drowning in dread even as expert
after expert calmly explained that to become
infected with Ebola requires a series of unfortunate—and very-unlikely-in-Hometown,
U.S.A.—events involving bodily fluids and
open wounds. In fact, so far
there have been only nine other
cases of Ebola in this country,
and among those, just one
death—hardly a zombie-esque
outcome. The thing that was really “catching” was fear.
Sociologists often refer
to fears shared by a group as
“moral panics.” The Holocaust and 9/11 were certainly
legitimate reasons for large
groups of people to be afraid.
But some pretty silly stuff has
triggered mass panic over the
years. In 1878, for example,
a New York Times editorial
suggested that Thomas Edison had “invented too many
things” and that “something
ought to be done to Mr.
Edison, and there is a growing conviction that it had better be done with hemp
rope.” Around the same time, folks were
up in arms about the danger of “selfish and
unsocial species of warfare which two of a
company carry on for hours together.” The
evil activity in question? Chess! (Take that,
Minecraft!)
So, why, despite our lofty perch on the
evolutionary tree of life, do we of opposable
thumbs and logic-capable minds break into
en masse sweat in response to things that are
as likely to harm us as reindeer are to fly?
SURVIVAL OVER COMMON SENSE
It turns out that when it comes to fear, our
superior brains are no more superior than,
well, a reindeer’s—or even a bacterium’s.
“The human brain is a survival machine,
not a figure-it-out computer,” says risk perception expert David Ropeik, author of How
Risky Is It, Really? Why Our Fears Don’t Always Match the Facts. “After you wake up in
the morning, its primary job is to get you
safely to bed at night, not to get good grades
or discover something.”
To do this, the brain relies on what neuroscientist Dr. Joseph LeDoux, author of The
Emotional Brain: The Mysterious Underpinnings of Emotional Life, refers to as
OMG!
“threat-trigIs that GLU
gered defense

responses”—
the clammy
hands, goose
bumps, weak
knees and
other sensations that we
associate with
fear (see Your
Body On Fear,
page 6).
These defense responses have nothing to do with
reason. The
part of the brain that detects danger, the
amygdala, is simply a switch that flips on
so that the body can react—ASAP—to a
potential threat. Because of its location in
the brain, it receives sensory information
before the prefrontal cortex, the thinking
part of the brain, explains Ropeik. That
means that the body will go into fightflight-or-freeze mode before our minds can
make sense of what’s going on. More importantly, it means that it’s only human to
experience so-called irrational fear. If we
didn’t, we wouldn’t be here.
FEAR THIS,
NOT THAT
What scares people the most isn’t identity
theft, terrorist attacks, earthquakes or even
clowns. It’s walking alone in the dark.
That’s according to the Chapman University
Survey on American Fears, a nationwide poll
of 1,500 adults released last October. The
survey also confirmed that our fears often
don’t match reality. Take crime: “People are
scared of serial killers and pedophiles,
when they should be focused on domestic
violence,” says Dr. Christopher Bader, who
led the study. In other words, the odds show
we’re more likely to be victimized by someone we know than a Dexter wanna-be.
The survey also found that even when a fear
is well founded, folks are often unlikely to
prepare for it. The majority of those who live
in areas where the risk of natural disasters
is high admitted to not having emergency
kits, says Bader. Clearly, we’re not very good
at evaluating risk, so here’s an unofficial
roundup of what we shouldn’t worry about in
the coming year—and what we should.
Fear this…
Flu

Domestic violence
Serial killers, pedophiles

Of course, news outlets stoke the fire
of collective fear. “The media loves to
tap into the fear response because it
doesn’t engage with the rational
mind. Scary headlines and disturbing images are captivating,” says sociologist Dr. Margee Kerr, whose
book Scream: Adventures in the Upside of Fear comes out in October.
Adds Dr. Christopher Bader, a
professor of sociology and the lead
researcher of the Chapman University Survey on American Fears (see
Fear This, Not That, page 5): “People
often don’t realize that when
they’re watching the news they’re
watching the worst possible scenario. That’s why it’s news: A serial
killer gets airtime because he’s rare,
not because serial murders are on
the rise.”
There are good reasons to try to
reign in the alarmist amygdala. It’s
one thing to experience an isolated
scare—say, the sight of an oncoming car swerving into our lane. We
need our innate defense responses
to make us physically capable of
steering clear. Fear is the caped
crusader who swoops in, saves the
day, and then disappears once the
danger is past. But it takes about
four hours for the body to recover
completely from fright and settle
into a normal, healthy state. When
it doesn’t, fear can morph into
chronic stress and anxiety, prolonging defense responses like elevated
blood pressure, suppressed immune
system and out-of-whack hormone
levels. “Chronic stress impairs fertility and memory,” adds Ropeik.
“It interferes with neurotransmitters associated with mood, which
may increase the risk of clinical
depression. Suicide rates in America have tripled, and an intellectual
case can be made that there’s a connection.”

fear
Sound, smell, visual image or other
stimulus is captured.
Stimulus hits amygdala, which
registers danger (skipping thinking
part of brain).
Heart pumps blood to arms and legs
more quickly and forcefully, priming them
to fight or flee, and causing a rise in blood
pressure. Blood flow may increase by as
much as 400 percent!
The extra tension in your poised-for-action
legs can literally cause you to shake in
your boots.
Breathing speeds up to get oxygen into the
lungs, where it’s picked up by blood and
delivered to muscles.
Adrenal glands release chemicals such
as epinephrine and cortisol into the bloodstream, triggering a variety of defense
mechanisms.
Hair on arms and legs stands up, a
reflex that probably made our hairier
ancestors look bigger and scarier. Now
this trick just results in goose bumps; it’s
why you might describe a horror movie as
“hair-raising.”
Perspiration picks up when you’re scared
in case you need to fight or run, causing
clammy hands and a sweaty brow. As
it evaporates, it cools you down.
Eyes seem to pop out of your head.
Eyelids widen and pupils dilate so
you can see as much of your surroundings as possible.
The rush of blood to the arms and legs,
leaving other body parts cold, creates the
sensation of chills up the spine.
Messages from the part of the brain that
prevents the bladder from letting loose
(the frontal lobe) may be overridden by
the limbic system, which controls the fear
response. The result: an urgent need to
pee—or even an accident.
When the body’s in crisis mode,
digestion shuts down since it’s not
necessary while fighting or fleeing. This
can cause“butterflies” in the belly, nausea
and diarrhea.
The immune system goes on break in
order to reorganize itself to fight infection.
(One reason you’re more likely to get sick
when chronically stressed.)
The parts of the brain responsible for
short-term memory, concentration and
rational thought go on hiatus while the
focus is on saving your own hide.
Dry mouth results when fluids in the
body are diverted away from areas where
they aren’t needed to participate in the
fear response. Throat muscles tend to
spasm in the face of danger too, which is
why it can be hard to swallow.
It’s unlikely you’ll be able to pluck a car
off a pinned pedestrian, but because you’re
so pumped for action, you may be able
to tap into reserves of muscle strength
that you can’t otherwise.

how media lights the fear fire
rying too much or not enough.
Ropeik calls this the risk perception gap. “Folks who are
afraid of flying will drive instead, which is statistically
riskier. That’s worrying too
much,” he says. “On the other
hand, people will text while
behind the wheel, which is not
worrying enough.” Irrational
fear can also lead to dangerous
social choices, Ropeik adds.
“We spend more money for
research on cancer than on
heart disease, which is a bigger
threat, because heart disease
doesn’t scare us as much. That’s
because cancer kills in a prolonged and painful way. We
aren’t just afraid of becoming
dead, we’re afraid of how we
become dead.”
Sometimes moral panic is a
self-fulfilling prophecy. “When
we become afraid of a space,
we often create a space to be
afraid of,” Bader says. “If a
park is wrongly rumored to
harbor dangerous drug dealers,
all the regular visitors to that
park stay away—and eventually drug dealers will move in.”
This doesn’t mean, of course,
that all fears are unfounded.
Many legitimate fears simply
don’t feel immediate enough to
tickle our amygdala. It also
doesn’t mean that we’re
doomed to become slaves to
the things that scare us.
Watching less TV news would
help, says Kerr—or at least
remembering that it’s designed
to entertain as well as inform.
So would learning to give facts
more weight in decision-making, says Ropeik. “When fear
sets in, try to let your rational
brain have a voice. If you do,
your choices will be healthier.”

Give the winter
blahs the brush-off
with this nifty coffee-table book, Tiki
Pop ($41, Taschen),
a warm Polynesian
wind that traces
america’s fascination with Pacific
culture. Did you know:
• The word tattoo originated in Tahiti?
• Hawaii gets more visitors in 10 days
than Tahiti gets in 10 years?
• There are no poisonous snakes
or insects in French Polynesia?
• In Tahiti, a taire (the national
flower) behind your ear to the
left side means you are “taken,”
but on the right means you’re
“looking”?

Ask Marilyn
By Marilyn vos Savant
our house has a forced-air
heating and cooling system,
with registers in each room
and a thermostat in the
hall. For the best efficiency,
is it better to leave all the
registers and doors open
for the air to circulate? or
should we close them in
rooms we aren’t using?
—R.H., Klamath Falls, Ore.
It’s usually better to leave
everything open. Good airflow is a critical element in
the design of a heating and
cooling system. When you
change that design by closing
off registers or doors, you
may choke the airflow of the
system, making it work
harder to maintain the
temperature you set. (Air is
still being sent to the supply
registers, but it can’t get
through.) If the registers are
adjustable, use this feature
mainly to fine-tune airflow in
rooms that you find are getting
too warm or cool for comfort.
