"A reputed city college seems to have taken the analogy of the ‘rules of the game’ a tad too seriously. PES Institute of Technology has come out with ‘infraction slips’ a la hockey’s green, yellow and red cards, and students in the ‘red’ category face suspension and a black mark on their certificates"

The Gift of A Lifetime in the Mail
"Marc Alexander promises his "angels" that he will pay it forward.
In the midst of a credit crisis, the 23-year-old had been rejected seven times for the $16,000 loan he needed to attend Kettering University this term.
But someone out there just couldn't stand to see the star senior quit college.
The anonymous letter came to Kettering's financial aid office just days after his story appeared in The Flint Journal -- enclosed was a $16,000 cashier's check.
Just one simple request from his secret donors: Pay it forward. "

Awesome movies on friendship
We watched couple of awesome and very touching movies on friendship this last weekend.
One was "Le ballon rouge" which tells the very cute story of a friendship between an young boy and a red balloon and the envy the world has over their friendship.
The second one, part of the same DVD, was "Crin blanc: Le cheval sauvage" (White Mane) which tells the story of friendship between an young boy and a rebellious horse and the envy of an evil ranch owner, whose tyranny drives the story to a tragic close.
