Hello February !

This year Random Acts of Kindness Week is observed February 11-17.

An act of kindness is a spontaneous gesture of goodwill towards someone or something - our fellow humans, the animal kingdom, and the kingdom of nature. Kind words and deeds come from a state of benevolence, generated by a core response deep within all of us.

You can find some ideas here, but if you've got a shovel and a strong back, it's the perfect time of year to dig in and help out your neighbors!

Peace,

Oscar Nominated Short Films
Back in the day while living in the West Village (NYC), each year I would make a point of seeing all of the Academy Award nominated Best Pictures.  It was so easy then, all I had to do was to walk out of my apartment a few blocks to find a screening of each film. Now, living in Newport, I'm grateful to walk to the Jane Pickens Theater-- where we will find several of the nominees this year, including 3 days of Oscar Shorts from 2/16-2/18-- but we'll have to cross at least one bridge to see a number of others. Below are links to the closest show times that I was able to find for each of the Best Picture nominated films... and the locations are:
