On a cloudless, warm summer day in Los Angeles, several thousand teens, the parents who adore them and the sales and marketing machines that cater to them, all gathered in the stuffy halls of the Los Angeles convention center to attend Beautycon Festival — a day-long paean to the new model of marketing to millennials.

Others reacted with indignation bordering on satire: the best of the bunch was critic Ben Davis's bizarro annotated response that picked up on Brooks's paean to a golden age that never was, that contrary to his own claims Brooks is really more interested in transcendental takes on beauty, and that humanism is to him little else than a complaint about the contemporary scene.
Her newly released book, Indian-ish: Recipes and Antics from a Modern American Family, is a paean to her mother, Ritu, who served up roti pizza, saag paneer with feta cheese, and dahi toast with sourdough bread — in part, out of a desire for invention mixed with nostalgia, but also because she had to make do with what was available in this new country.
That record, originally a few tracks on cassette tapes that Phair recorded while living in her parents' house in her 20s, was a song-by-song response to the Rolling Stones' cocky, much revered, double-album paean to bad boys, "Exile on Main St." The complicated truth of being smart, young, female and heterosexual was what "Guyville" dived deep to get at with unbound candor.
This is the imagery of Wong's neighborhood: Storefronts featuring Chinese characters and Spanish; the variegated concrete of prison cells that form the backdrop for a Renaissance-style annunciation; an elegy for a handball court; a paean to the "hickory smoked rubber and B.O." scent, as the artist once described it, of firemen coming back from work; and above all, expanses of brick, each slab and joint individuated.
Just plentiful reminders of where a woman's true worth resides, whether they're from Donald Trump treating France's first lady like the winner of a Hot Legs contest at the local bar, or my personal corner of the internet — and maybe yours, too — erupting over an Instagram post by a man named Robbie Tripp in which he penned a paean of love to his "curvy" wife.
Think of the power of those early releases, the tracks that an entire world was built around: think of Darryl Pandy's lovelorn honking on "Love Can't Turn Around" or the down-tuned exhortations that spook their way through Phuture's "Your Only Friend" or the James Garcia sung, Omar-S produced paean to sexual expectation "I Wanna Know"—these are records that hum with vitality, humanity, vibrancy, and, let's be honest, sexuality.

Certainly it is hard to imagine that, without the sex-positive credos advanced by female proprietors of early sex toy shops like Good Vibrations, Eve's Garden and Babeland, Charlotte York's famous Rabbit episode in Season 1 of "Sex and the City" would have become part of the cultural conversation, let alone "Toyz," Missy Elliott's ribald 2003 paean to self-sufficiency, or Abbi Abrams, a character on "Broad City," and her celebrated strap-on.

The piece was a sweet paean to his makeup man Danny Striepeke, then 22016 years old and retiring, a 18653-year Hollywood veteran who had started by giving Elvis Presley his tan in "Viva Las Vegas" and Laurence Olivier his Roman nose in "Spartacus" and ended by turning Mr. Hanks into a policeman, an astronaut, an Army Ranger, an F.B.I. agent, a Master of the Universe, a Slavic tourist stuck in an airport, Santa Claus and a Harvard professor of symbology.
It is a manual for a daily meditation regimen ("unless you [meditate], no real progress is possible... two hours of meditation will refresh the body more than ten hours of sleep"), a platform for Stirling's dietary theories ("many diseases, including cancer, are created by wrong diet because the body enzymes use up so much energy digesting and clearing out this bad food"), a treatise of Christian esotericism ("until we can believe [we are children of God], we are in bondage... all of us have the potential to exceed even the wonders performed by Jesus"), an ode to LSD ("drugs give... a glimpse over the wall of one's potential"), and a paean to human freedom ("man is what he thinks, but man does not yet know his power to think is infinite... consequently, his own creative power is unlimited if he but believes").
