| ARTICLES RELATED TO Good | | | |  Good: Encyclopedia II - Luxury good - Market CharacteristicsSome luxury products have been claimed to be examples of Veblen goods, with a positive price elasticity of demand: for example, making a perfume more expensive can increase its perceived value as a luxury good to such an extent that sales can go up, rather than down.
Although the technical term luxury good is independant to the goods' quality, they are generally considered to be goods at the highest end of the market in terms of quality and price. Classic luxury goods include haute couture clothing, accessories, and luggage. However many markets have a luxury segment in ...

| | | | | Good: Encyclopedia II - Good Times - Two-parters Good Times, like many other Norman Lear series, was known for its use of the "two-parter" to draw viewers back to the show the next week. Although these story arcs usually played out over two episodes, some stories, like Willona adopting Penny from her abusive mother, took as many as four episodes to play out.
Here is a list of notable Good Times two-parters:
In the fall of 1974, J.J. celebrated his eighteenth birthday. Expecting art supplies from his father, he receives a sweater instead because the departm ...

| | | | | | Good: Encyclopedia II - Luxury good - Luxury Brands A luxury brand or prestige brand is a brand for which a majority of its products are luxury goods. It may also include certain brands whose names are associated with luxury, high price, or high quality, though few, if any, of their goods are currently considered luxury goods. The automobile manufacturer Hummer is an example of such a brand, as a Hummer automobile is considered a status symbol, even though none of the vehicles in the Hummer line-up meet the r ...

| | | | | | Good: Encyclopedia II - Good Times - Backstage tension Almost from the premiere episode, J.J., an aspiring artist, was the public's favorite character on the show and his frequently-invoked catch phrase "Dyn-o-mite!" became very popular. As the series progressed through its second and third year, however, Rolle and Amos, who played the Evans parents, grew more disillusioned with the direction the show was taking as J.J.'s antics and stereotypically buffoonish behavior took precedence in the storylines. Rolle was rather vocal about disliking the character of J.J. in a 1975 interview with Ebony ...

| | | | | Good: Encyclopedia II - Public good - The free rider problem Public goods provide a very important example of market failure, in which market-like behavior of individual gain-seeking does not produce efficient results. The production of public goods results in positive externalities which are not remunerated. Because no private organisation can reap all the benefits of a public good which they have produced, there will be insufficient incentives to produce it voluntarily. Consumers can take advantage of public goods without contributing sufficiently to their creation. This is called the free rider pro ...

Public goods game - Iterated public goods games.
"Repeat-play" public goods games simply involve the same group of subjects playing the basic game over a series of rounds. The typical result is a declining proportion of public contribution, from the simple game (the "One-shot" public goods game). When trusting contributors see that not everyone is giving up as much as they do they tend to reduce the amount they share with the group if the game is repeated to another round. If this is again repeated the same thing ...

| | | | | Good: Encyclopedia II - Public goods game - Implications The name of the game comes from economist’s definition of a “public good”. One type of public good is a costly, "non-excludable" project that every one can benefit from, regardless of how much they contribute to create it (because no one can be excluded from using it - like street lighting). Part of the economic theory of public goods is that they would be under-provided (at a rate lower than the ‘social optimum’) because individuals had no private motive to contribute (the free rider problem). The “public goods game” is designed to test this belief and connected theories of social behaviour.

The premise of the film is that Alexander Kerner's mother, Christiane Kerner, an ardent, though more practically-minded than ideological, supporter of the Socialist Unity Party of Germany falls into a coma shortly before the fall of the Berlin Wall, following a heart attack she suffered when she saw Alex being beaten by police who mistook him for an anti-government demonstrator. After eight months she comes out of the coma, but is very weak both physically and mentally, and doctors say that ...

| | | | | Good: Encyclopedia II - The Good Soldier - Plot summary The Good Soldier is narrated by the character John Dowell, one half of one of the two couples whose dissolving relationships form the core of the novel. Dowell tells the stories of those dissolutions, as well as the deaths of three characters and the madness of a fourth, in a rambling, non-chronological fashion that still leaves gaps for the reader to fill.
The novel opens with the famous line, “This is the saddest story I have ever heard.” Dowell explains that for nine years he, his wife Florence, and their friends Captain ...

| | | | | Good: Encyclopedia II - Good Friday - In Protestantism Many Protestant communities hold special services on this day as well. In the German Lutheran tradition from the 16th to the 20th century, this was the most important holiday. It was the prime day on which to receive Holy Communion, and services were often accentuated by special music such as the St. Matthew Passion by Johann Sebastian Bach.
Many Baptist and non-denominational churches do not celebrate Good Friday, instead observing the Crucifixion on Wednesday to coincide with the Jewish sacrifice of the Passover Lamb (which C ...

| | | | | Good: Encyclopedia II - Public goods game - Results The group as a whole does best when everyone contributes all of their tokens into the public pool. If everyone puts every token they start with into the pot then the group will extract the maximum total reward from the economists running the test. However, the Nash equilibrium in this game is simply zero contributions by all; if the experiment were a purely an analytical exercise in game theory it would resolve to zero contributions because any player does better contributing zero than any other amount regardless of whatever anyone else does ...
