After the airline pilot had managed to land the planeinto Wellington airport  — albeit bumpily — following a descent through exceptionally heavy weather, she came out of the flight deck to bid the passengers farewell as they gratefully left the plane  on their way back to terra firma. The most memorable comment he received was from a little old lady who asked him politely whether he would pleas...

I have spent a fortune at that shop over the years. I used to be annoyed that everything came in multiples, however as whatever it was used annoy my boys intensely, it usually took several or many tries before we were even in with a chance. In this particular instance I have his Occupational Therapist to thank.

This is especially handy at the pre-reading stage of child development. A child's favourite colour can be used to aid a parent in the smooth running of home life, or if not smooth, then certainly less bumpy. If you are blessed with multifarious children, colour coding may bring a little sunshine into an otherwise rainbow existence.Ideally, as a parent, a child’s colour choice should be guided by adult wisdom. Better still, if you can aim for primary colours, although that only works if you have three children, red, blue and yellow. Other, secondary colours, may be adopted if your paint pot palette runneth over with children. If you are forced to accept tertiary colours, then you need all the help you can get!Some unfortunate children hav...

Is it something about the colour red which is supposed to attract men? Apparently so according to a University of Rochester study. A groundbreaking study by two University of Rochester psychologists to be published online Oct. 28 by the Journal of Personality and Social Psychology adds color—literally and figuratively—to the age-old question of what attracts men to women. Through five psychological experiments, Andrew Elliot, professor of psychology, and Daniela Niesta, post-doctoral researcher, demonstrate that the color red makes men feel more amorous toward women. And men are unaware of the role the color plays in their attraction. a Girls, it’s true - Red Enhances Men’s Attraction to Women (Source:...

More specifically, what do your salads look like? If you say green, you might not be getting all the health benefits you can. Colours -- deep reds, yellows, purples, oranges -- are full of important nutrients that you might not be getting from plain old lettuce. One colour is especially good for you: berry red. Full of antioxidants, vitamins and oh-so-tasty, berries can be a great addition to salads, main dishes and pretty much anything else. Thought I like them on their own. My other favourite coloured produce includes bell peppers, eggplant, carrots, mangos and watermelon.
