- Betty Edwards' famous book, Drawing on the Right Side of the Brain, contains a wonderful series of exercises for those who are convinced they can't draw. I only picked it up after I'd read Edward de Bono's Serious Creativity and discovered that creativity is a learned skill, not something that you're 'born with' (or without). Edwards' book taught me that drawing is also an acquired skill. Or, to be more precise, it's an 'unlearning' skill, because it requires you to defeat our natural inclination to view objects as series of icons (a left-brain 'shorthand'), and instead view them as lines, shades and spaces (a right-brain abstraction). The reason we think we can't draw, says Edwards, is that when we try to draw, our left brain gets in the way, telling us that what we're drawing when we draw a face is two eyes, a nose, a mouth etc. |

- Many Iraqis sought credit for assassination try No one is sure who pulled the trigger in the 1996 assassination attempt on Uday Hussein, but as political parties emerge in postwar Iraq and angle for power, whoever gets credit can bank on the prestige it will bring. |

- J ai fait un rêve étrange cette nuit. Un rêve tellement étrange et agréable, irréel, où je me suis retrouvée dans un autre monde . Je me souviens de presque tous les détails de ce rêve, alors je tiens à l écrire. J ai déjà fait des rêves de ce genre, qui se sont perdus quelque part, dans les tréfonds de ma mémoire, et je le regrette. Celui-ci va rester sur mon joueb et je pourrai m y replonger à loisir, lorsque j aurai besoin d évasion. |

- D après The Observer (nouvelle reprise par le Courrier International) les réponses de 5.000 jeunes filles anglaises à un questionnaire publié sur un magazine pour adolescentes mettent en évidence que plus de 9 sur 10 d entre elles « considèrent que c est le rôle du mari de les entretenir, et 97 % ne sont pas d accord avec le fait que peu importe qui gagne le plus dans le couple, pourvu que l on soit heureux ». A une écrasante majorité, elles confirment qu elles préfèrent compter sur leur partenaire plutôt que de poursuivre une carrière. Même si 43 % d entre elles envisagent de continuer leurs études et d'obtenir un diplôme universitaire, le mariage est la priorité absolue pour une jeune sur quatre. Les filles d'aujourd hui veulent se marier vers 25 ans. |
