First we will have a look at some history of color.
1611 - Finland - The oldest known color system is credited to astronomer, priest and Neoplatonist Aron Sigfrid Forsius (1569-1637). In his color circle , between the colors Black and White, Red has been placed on the one side since the classical antiquity, and Blue on the other; Yellow then comes between White and Red, pale Yellow between White and Yellow, Orange between Yellow and Red.

I hope all goes well. And that reminds me, I was supposed to make an appointment some time this month. (Sigh) I never remember to make a January appt. Just July, when I'm out of school.

So the Oscar nominations are out. You have to scroll down to "Animated Feature" before you get to a film that I saw last year. I also saw nominees for Best Visual Effects, Make-up and Editing.
Basically, I saw "Cars", "the Illusionist" and "Pirates of the Carribean: Dead Man's Chest".

Ah, sounds like you need some chicken soup, lots of liquids and some rest.
We do have beautiful sunshine today. Have had most all of January. That part is normal for us. However, we usually have lots of snow, but not this year.
There are many wonderful links regarding color, and it is so important to us. I was intrigued with the Color Therapy link. All makes sense.
