possibly the worst...article....ever

OK, it might not be the worst ever but I just read an article in Relevant (I know, serves me right) that might just be the worst I've ever read in that magazine. Not only is the position of the article one I don't like (it's an article about birth control), the quality of the piece is pretty bad and incredibly inconsistent with the voice and tone of the magazine. I got the impression that it sort of slid by the eyes of the editors...or maybe it was intentional, it will definitely stir the waters. Too bad because the issue of birth control is a good topic for young Christians to think about and discuss.

Robert Downey Jr. Pictures - 67th Annual Golden Globe Awards - Press Room - Zimbio

via zimbio.com

I'm normally not one for fawning over celebrities or paying much attention to awards (I'm married to an actor, it takes the allure out of the industry pretty quickly) but I really enjoyed Downey in Sherlock Holmes and I'm glad to see he won a Golden Globe for it...and he's pulled himself out of a very dark place and I admire that.

Pepsi: Refresh Project - Interactive (video) - Creativity Online

No Pepsi at the Super Bowl? Here's where you'll find it.

Pepsi is skipping out on the Super Bowl to invest in this socially-conscious social media push. Pepsi's "Refresh Everything" campaign asks consumers to think up ideas that will make the world a better place, promising $20 million in grant money to fund the winning causes.

Starting on January 13, visitors age 13 and up can upload their ideas to refresheverything.com. On February 1, voting will open to the general public, who will decide which ideas deserve funding. The $20 million will be divvied up into grants of $5k, $25k, $50, and $250k. After the January session, submissions will be accepted for the rest of the year for the first half of each month or until 1000 ideas are received, with voting to take place from the 15th.
