Wednesday

Well today was WARK Wednesday, so inspired by a friend I decided to go to the local Sainsbury's, purchase a tin of chocolates and proceeded to give them away just outside Clifton Down Shopping Centre. Which was surprisingly difficult really...

One woman responded with "What's the catch?", most responses were "No thank you" but a good few seemed to be able to get past any suspicions and take the free chocolate.

Even the security guard, who came and asked me "Do have permission to give away free chocolate?" to which I surprisingly answered "No", seemed most amiable and even accepted a chocolate after I had moved away from the entrance and onto the pavement area. Hurrah!

Do something nice today!

Everyone needs a little encouragement from time to time, so maybe today as you read this you could think about doing something nice for somebody.

It doesn't have to be a big thing, it could be something seemlingly insignificant but enough to make somebody's day... it doesn't take much to...

- hold a door open for somebody
- make a donation to charity
- take the time to take to somebody and actually listen to them
- make someone a cup of tea and deliver it to them with a smile


So go, go, go...

"my kid could paint that"

In the span of only a few months, 4-year-old Marla Olmstead rocketed from total obscurity into international renown – and sold over $300,000 dollars worth of paintings. She was compared to Kandinsky and Pollock, and called “a budding Picasso.” Inside Edition, The Jane Pauley Show, and NPR did pieces, and The Today Show and Good Morning America got in a bidding war over an appearance by the bashful toddler. There was talk of corporate sponsorship with the family fielding calls from The Gap and Crayola. But not all of the attention was positive. From the beginning, many faulted her parents for exposing Marla to the glare of the media and accused the couple of exploiting their daughter for financial gain. Others felt her work was, in fact, comparable to the great abstract expressionists – but saw this as emblematic of the meaninglessness of Modern Art. “She is painting exactly as all the adult paintings have been in the past 50 years, but painting like a child, too. That is what everybody thinks but they don’t dare to say it,” said Oggi, the leading Italian weekly. Through no intention of her own, Marla revived the age-old question, ‘what is art?’

Concerns that 'in-person' social-networking could corrupt children

"A controversial new teenage social-networking trend is emerging across the country, causing alarm amongst parents and community leaders. Rather than using the safety of computers or mobile phones to talk to each other, young people have started meeting up in person to chat, listen to music, share photographs and even form relationships"
