The 2013 matric results were released today and were available in various newspapers and online. Perhaps in the 60's people need to scour the papers to discover their matric results. But, we're living in the 21st century, people, and there are now at least half a dozen tech-savvy, private ways to find your marks. I don't get why the tradition remains for the national papers to splash the names of every matriculant who made it.
I finished Grade 12 before the age of SMS and websites, yet I remember feeling uncomfortable at having everyone's results published for all the yentas to see. It's not that I was afraid of people seeing my maths or history results, because I was headed to the rabbinate regardless. But, I winced at some of my peers having their "just passed" news broadcast for all to see.
In those days, I felt for the guys who weren't the academics, but would be judged against a yardstick that they weren't wired to achieve. Some of them graduated school mentsch cum laude, but there was no column in the papers for that.
Last week, I raised this issue on my radio show, in person and on social media. I fielded a wide spectrum of opinions- from those who feel that publishing marks motivates students (in that case, we should surely publish the results of medical and law school as well, no?) to those who felt it placed undue pressure on kids who aren't top academics. I'm with the second group.
I have some serious reservations about the matric-mark-madness that steals front page news and radio headlines.
Don't get me wrong, I'm all for celebrating achievement. Students who sweat blood for two years and crack top grades deserve their piece of limelight as much as their parents deserve the nachas. But, what about the kids who don't make it? And are marks the only measure of school achievement that we should celebrate?
Firstly, getting good marks doesn't guarantee that you've gained knowledge and much less so that you've learned invaluable skills like critical thinking. I know people who burned their textbooks after each exam, which made a clear statement that no school rote-learning would accompany them into adulthood. My matric class produced some great religious leaders, businessmen and even a rocket scientist. Most of us didn't use the matric syllabus to get us there.
Last week, one fellow shared how he had failed an exam because his answers, although correct, didn't match the way they had been set out in the lecturer's notes. Now, there's a sound educational tactic.
I was schooled on the Talmudic model, which is open-season for questions and debates and nothing is so just because it says so. We were encouraged to challenge our teachers and spent most of the day studying in pairs, which means we argued over just about every line of the information we studied. We weren't taught information; we were taught thinking.
I'm afraid that making the goal at school the marks you get might undermine the point of education. If a student knows how to present the "required answers" (thanks to having worked on "past papers" and having been coached in answering styles that address "what the examiner is looking for"), we don't yet know whether or not the student knows how to use her brain.
And, even if we assume that the system does get the students to think, is that the end-goal of education?
Education that motivate youngsters to achieve good marks teaches them nothing at all. I have no doubt that there have been abusive husbands, dishonest stockbrokers and infamous criminals who achieved excellent marks at school. Schools are surely meant to cultivate minds, actually, cultivate people, not to push results.
Education isn't intended for just for brains, but for humans. At the end of an educational process, the whole person should emerge improved, not only their intellect. Parents and teachers should partner to instill in children values, respect, tolerance and kindness at the same time that they share information with them. Schools that churn out academic stars who don't look up from their smartphones to greet their parents, have no clear definition of integrity and have not been trained to share with or tolerate others (like the less "smart" members of their own class) have failed.
I hope that next year sees the matric results limited to student-number-protected access on the Education Ministry's website. Let the papers find something else to sell in early January. And how refreshing it would be to have schools boast about graduates who have been personally enriched, who are socially responsible and balanced people, rather than just showcasing sharp-minds.

If you haven't already figured, I don't need even the slightest excuse to wax eloquent about our proverbial journey away from home. So not too long ago, when TheGalNextDoor asked me to do a guest post for her blog, talking about life in Goa and what it means to me, I grabbed the opportunity. And because it is interesting to live in a place that is otherwise seen as a tourist destination, where people have make fleeting visits filled with indulgence and merry-making, often creating memories that make them want to ensure that what-happens-in-Goa-stays-in-Goa, I thought it would be nice to talk once again of how Goa became home. And because I have come to know TGND's blog as that place where I go revitalise my Bangalore memories, I thought it would be a nice place to juxtapose my life there/then with the here/now.
In TGND's words (and sometimes pictures too!) I see a view of Bangalore that I have long forgotten. I love her candid and heartfelt stories about life in the garden city and everything distinctly-Bangalore: markets, gardens and flowers blossoming around! And more often that not her posts give me that strange tug in my heart followed by a flood of memories from a different time and place and invariably I come away feeling light and cheerful that the Bangalore I once knew still has the potential to be a fabulous and vibrant city for some.
From a former hardcore Bangalorean, I think I've become quite the self-proclaimed Goan today and so my post for TGND is about how the journey turned my life around. so go take a look and tell me what you think!

How to Choose the Best Glass Rigs
As you probably know, there are different alternative methods that are coming up for taking tobacco and its products, most of these methods are much more beneficial than smoking. Some of the two most popular methods that people have been using to take tobacco products is the use of the bong and the glass rigs, although the glass rigs have been known to have more benefits. If you're considering to use glass rigs, it is important to understand that there are a number of factors that are very important to help you choose the best glass rigs possible. Most of the glass rigs are usually available in many head shops in the world, whether it is at physical locations or at online locations. Glass rigs are usually sold at different prices because there are different varieties and a number of factors that are used in the making. However, although the amount of money that you'd be spending on the glass rigs is very important to consider, even more important is to look at the different specific features of this glass rigs that you be buying.
One of the first factors that you have to consider when you're thinking about buying glass rigs is the size of the mouthpiece of the glass rigs that you're going to buy.This is a very important factor because it's going to determine the level of enjoyment that you will get from using the dabs glass rigs, you should always buy the ones that have the smallest mouthpieces. Glass rigs also matter in size, you should be very considerate when you're buying the glass rigs that you want to use. If you do a comparison therefore, you would realize that the smaller kinds of glass rigs are usually much more beneficial and much more effective at helping you enjoy the tobacco as compared to the larger kinds of glass rigs that are available in the industry.
The next factor that you supposed to look at when you're thinking about buying glass rigs is the issue of water filtration depending on the place that you're going to use the glass rigs. Waterless glass rigs are usually more much more beneficial compared to other kinds of glass rigs and this is simply because, they offer you the option of convenience meaning that you can easily be able to carry them around. When choosing the glass rigs, it is also very important for you to consider using the glass rigs that have percolators because these are going to be effective in preventing you from taking in smoke from tobacco which can be harmful to your health.

An Interview with Fredi Trammell By Rev. Crystal Schmalz
Fredi Trammell an author, pastor's wife, mother, grandmother, and long-term servant of Jesus Christ began her ministry at the age of fourteen. To some, Fredi would not have been the "best" candidate for ministry, because she didn't come from the typical "good family" and ideal lifestyle. Fredi was raised by her grandmother, didn't come from the "normal" two parent two children American dream family, was not rich, and her high-tech church transportation consisted of shoes and feet that walked a mile each way to and from church. She was what we term "the bus kid."
As I interviewed Fredi, she told me about what I saw as sacrifices that she had made for the kingdom of God. She was quick to tell me and adjust my thinking when she said, "You don't count it as a sacrifice; you count it as a blessing." As I heard these words I was completely engaged into what she was saying, because I come from a generation which doesn't prize work, and sees everything as a sacrifice. It isn't about what we can give to God, but it is about what he can give to us. I was humbly put into my place as I listened to her words of wisdom. Her life story began to meld into my own, and I could see the Lord at work in this interview. I was being mentored by her life story. I didn't schedule this interview; I never planned on getting to know her, it just sort of happen. Her booth was right next to my booth at a Ladies retreat, and somehow just as Paul spoke about the steps of the children of God being ordered in Romans 8, I felt my steps being ordered by his holy and mighty presence.
Fredi told me about her history of salvation and ministry. Fredi's hunger for the Lord continued to grow as a child, and at the age of fourteen Fredi was filled with the wonderful gift of the Holy Spirit. Immediately she felt compelled to enter into the ministry. Fredi began to preach on street corners the gospel message as she played the guitar and crowds gathered around to hear the good news. By the age of eighteen she was travelling out, preaching revivals, and doing the ministry that God had called her to do. She received her first license as an unmarried woman in Arkansas just before she was twenty. As the years progressed Fredi was married, had four children, and her ministry became "diversified" as she so tenderly put it. Throughout the years Fredi has been involved in children's ministry, has written eleven books, has worked alongside her husband as he pastored several churches, and has never lost the zeal and passion for souls that was once birthed in her through the Holy Spirit. Fredi told me "No matter what church I have been in, I have felt compelled to do something for the Lord."
The ministry of Fredi Trammell inspires all those who hear her story, because she was willing to be a minister outside of the walls. For Fredi, ministry wasn't a title, but it was a calling.
Sister Fredi Trammell passed away in December of 2013. I hope she will always be remembered for the wonderful woman of faith she was. Her commitment and life to Jesus Christ should inspire each of us to be and do all we can for the kingdom.

Maybelline Baby Lips Berry Crush Review
Instant impact of winter can be seen on lips and skin. Majorly Lips-dry chapped. Lip balms become a necessity. The options available in the market make me go for almost every other lip balm over the counter. Also the variants like lip butters, lip mask, lip scrubs. But nothing can replace the ease and convenience aspect of a lip balm. Here I am with Maybelline Baby Lips Berry Crush Review.
Maybelline Baby Lips Berry Crush Review:
1.Packaging of Maybelline Baby Lips Berry Crush
This tinted lip balm by Maybelline comes in a plastic bullet type of packaging. Besides that, the bullet looks very funky with the font printed on the tube. Most importantly it is travel-friendly, can be easily located as the color of entire tube is like the product inside it.
2.Price of Maybelline Baby Lips Berry Crush:
INR 190 for 4.5 g.
3.Product Description:
Maybelline Baby Lips Berry Crush is a tinted lip balm with a deep berry tint. The tint is so light that it won't cover the pigmentation of lips but it is just used as a lip balm. It can also be used under lipsticks.
4.Maybelline Baby Lips Berry Crush Review: My Experience:
The product comes in a cute funky printed candy like bullet. I have used it on my daughter's lips and it gives you a soft and smooth feeling on lips. The fragrance is like cherries and it leaves a gloss like effect on your lips. It glides on lips very easily though it has a buttery texture. Lips feel soft, nourished as it has a moisturizing effect on lips.
Seems like it cannot cover pigmented lips as it is a translucent shade that leaves a glossy effect on your lips. While it may not cover dark spots on lips, there are other variants available by Maybelline with good pigment.
The formula is smooth, hydrating, because of which it has a good staying power. This can be used as a daily lip product, because of the shimmer particles in it you can apply this for a day brunch look as well.
Furthermore, the SPF control in this product protects your lips from harmful UV rays. In addition, this product does have a mild berry fragrance to it but it does not stay for long or bother much, it disappears on the application.
5.Maybelline Baby Lips Berry Crush swatches:
6.Pros of Maybelline Baby Lips Berry Crush:
- Firstly it is extremely moisturizing
- Very light on lips
- Also heals chapped lips
- Long staying power
- Lips feel soft and supple
- Furthermore, it has SPF 16
7.Cons of Maybelline Baby Lips Berry Crush:
- I don't have any
9.Do I recommend buying Maybelline Baby Lips Berry Crush?
In conclusion, because of the hydrating and long-lasting power, this product is my favorite. Most noteworthy it has SPF 16 in it to protect your lips from harmful UV rays. Therefore I would definitely recommend this Lip Balm for all age group even kids too. I just love to use this lip balm with a hint of color with a buttery soft texture.

A home funeral happens when a loved one is cared for at home after death, giving family and friends time to gather and participate in planning and carrying out after-death rituals or ceremonies and preparing the body for burial or cremation by bathing, dressing and laying out for visitation. Some nursing homes, for example, may allow the family to care for the deceased after death, and more religious committees are housing and caring for the dead. Support and assistance to carry out after-death care may come from home funeral educators or guides, but their goal is to facilitate maximum involvement of the family and friends in the funeral process.

Star retains BWF rights in India
Star India, the prominent Indian broadcaster, has renewed its rights deal with the Badminton World Federation.
The broadcaster is understood to have picked up rights to leading BWF events over the next four-year cycle, which runs from 2018 to 2021.
The BWF is working with Infront, the Wanda-owned international sports marketing agency, on the sale of media and sponsorship rights to its major events in an eight-year deal that runs until 2025.
Star's previous four-year agreement with the BWF expired in December last year and as the broadcaster failed to immediately agree a new deal some BWF events were absent from its programming at the beginning of 2018.
However, Star's parent company 21st Century Fox did agree individual tie-ups with Badminton England and the Badminton Association of India to show this month's All-England Open and the 2018 India Open Super Series respectively.
For the first time, the BWF is working with just one agency on both its media rights and sponsorship sales after a competitive invitation to tender in 2016. Infront replaced rival IMG, which sold the BWF's media rights from 2014 to 2017, and the Singapore-based Enterprise Sports Group, which marketed the sponsorship packages.
Meanwhile, Star has signed up Future Group, the Indian retail brand, as the latest associate sponsor of its coverage of this year's Indian Premier League, the popular Twenty20 cricket competition.
The list of associate sponsors now comprises: AMFI, the mutual funds company; Asian Paints; Dream 11, the fantasy sports games; MakeMyTrip, the travel website; Parle Products, the snacks company; Polycab, the cable manufacturer; Vimal Pan Masala, the chewing snack brand; and Future Group.
Reliance Jio, the Indian mobile phone operator, is on board as one of the co-presenting sponsors of Star's transmissions, alongside mobile phone maker Vivo and soft drinks giant Coca-Cola.
Star claims to have signed up 34 sponsors for coverage of the competition, with matches taking place from 7 April to 27 May.

So, we loaded up at the end of last week and drove out to the Smoke in the Spring BBQ Contest in Osage City, Kansas.
After we arrived, we bought around $20 dollars of BBQ Bucks and walked around. They had a good map of all the Teams that were participating in the Taste of Osage. We ate some really great food! One of the standouts was an apple cinnamon sausage from Cygneture Barbeque. If you ever have the chance to try it, don't pass it up!
The Smoke in the Spring contest was great. All the teams were close together and it felt like a big family party where everyone was having a good time! I really liked they way they set it up so the Teams could make a little money and where people could try all the great food the teams put together!
I highly recommend that you go to these events with your family to enjoy some great food and family time!

I have never taken on the task of creating one of these pumpkins, but this year I go all into. I painted the body and eye. I used foam to make hie teeth and pupil. I even ordered a pair of lime green tights online to make some arms and legs. MUCH to my disappointment, this is what I found when I came in this morning. I only wish I could somehow make a puff of smell jump out of the blog so you could truly appreciate the experience I had this morning as I walked in. I guess it's just not meant to be for my class to submit a pumpkin...Unless of course some reader out there wants to recreate this masterpiece by Thursday morning at 8:00!

4. The respondent No. 1, being the father of the minor and the respondent Nos. 2 & 3, being the paternal grandparents of the minor have filed the guardianship case from which this petition arises, against the petitioner being the mother of the minor.
5. The contention of the Senior Counsel for the petitioner/mother is that since under Section 6 of the Hindu Minority and Guardianship Act, 1956, the natural guardian of a male Hindu minor, as the minor in the present case is, is the father and after him the mother, the petition by the respondent Nos. 2 & 3 grandparents does not lie.
6. The Senior Counsel for the petitioner/mother has in this regard drawn attention to Githa Hariharan v. Reserve Bank of India, I (1999) DMC 337 (SC)=II (1999) SLT 138=(1999) 2 SCC 228 and Nirali Mehta v. Surendrakumar Surana, AIR 2013 Bom. 123.
7. I have drawn attention of the Senior Counsel for the petitioner/mother to Section 8 of the Guardians and Wards Act, 1890 and under which the proceedings from which this petition arises has been filed which entitles the person desirous of being, or claiming to be, the guardian of the minor, or any relative or friend of the minor to apply to the Court for order appointing him/her to be the guardian of the minor. I have enquired from the senior Counsel for the petitioner/mother, as to how the respondent Nos. 2 & 3, being the grandparents, can be ousted at the threshold and whether not the contentions as urged are to be decided at the final stage only.
8. In this respect I may notice that the respondents, in the petition seeking guardianship of the minor, have pleaded that considering the welfare and future of the minor, the child should remain in the custody of the respondents, as the respondent No. 2 being the paternal grandmother is a house wife and remains at home and the respondent No. 3 being the paternal grandfather is also a retired person and remains at home and the respondent No. 1 being the father of the minor, though working at Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia visits Delhi often and the respondents are better equipped to look after the minor than the petitioner/mother.
9. It has further been enquired from the Senior Counsel for petitioner, whether not the Guardianship Court, at the preliminary stage, cannot decide whether the claim of the respondents is correct or not.
10. In fact, the Senior Counsel for the petitioner/mother has herself drawn attention to para 13 of Nirali Mehta (supra) which lays down that in determining who the guardian of the child would be, the welfare of the child is the prime aspect which would come up for consideration and a legal guardian can be given custody or access as interim or as ancillary reliefs.
11. No particular passage of either of the judgments cited, which disentitles the grandparents during the lifetime of the parents to apply for guardianship of the minor, has been shown. It thus cannot be said that a petition by the grandparents, during the lifetime of the parents or of either of the parent, is not maintainable. It is a different matter that the Guardianship Court, at the final stage may come to the conclusion that the guardianship and custody of the minor should be jointly with the parents or with either of them, in preference to the paternal grandparents and the father.
12. The Senior Counsel for the petitioner/mother then draws attention to para 20 of Nirali Mehta (supra) where it is held that for any person other than the parents of the child, the guardianship would be considered only in their absence and their rights are similar to those under Section 3(2) of the Children Act, 1989 of United Kingdom.
13. The same also does not amount to holding that the guardianship claim of grandparents is not maintainable in life time of parents.
14. Moreover this is not a case where it is the grandparents alone who have sought custody against the mother of the minor. It is the paternal grandparents along with the father, who have applied to the Guardianship Court and no argument has been made of the prejudice if any which will be caused to the petitioner/mother, if the guardianship case continues with the grandparents being parties thereto along with the father of the minor.
15. In Rosy Jacob v. Jacob A. Chakramakkal, 1973 (SLT SOFT) 596=(1973) 1 SCC 840, it was held that in considering the question of welfare of the minor, though due regard of course has to be paid to the right of the father to be the guardian and that there is a presumption that a minor's parents would do their very best to promote their children's welfare, but if the custody of the father cannot promote their welfare, then he cannot claim indefeasible right to their custody, merely because there is no defect in his personal character and he has attachment for his children. It was further held that merely because the father loves his children and is not shown to be otherwise undesirable, cannot necessarily lead to the conclusion that the welfare of the children would be better promoted by granting their custody to him. Similarly in Gaurav Nagpal v. Sumedha Nagpal, I (2009) DMC 523 (SC)=IX (2008) SLT 197=(2009) 1 SCC 42, it was held that the paramount consideration of the Court in determining the question as to who should be given custody of a minor child is the welfare of the child and not rights of the parents under a statute for the time being in force or what the parties say.
16. Though both the aforesaid judgments are in the context of warring parents but what is abundantly clear therefrom is that it is not as if the parents alone have a right to the custody and / or guardianship of the minor and no other person can stake a claim. Here, the father of the minor along with his parents is seeking guardianship of the minor and their claim to such guardianship is pitted against that of the mother of the minor. The father of the minor, in conjunction with his parents, has to be given a chance to prove that the custody and guardianship of the minor with them is better than that with the mother. The father of the minor cannot be deprived of an opportunity to prove the same. In fact in Gaurav Nagpal (supra) it was also held that though the provisions of the special statutes which govern the rights of the parents may be taken into consideration, there is nothing which can stand in the way of the Court exercising its parens patriae jurisdiction arising in such cases and that the absolute right of parents over the destinies and the lives of their children, in the modern changed social conditions, must yield to the considerations of their welfare as human beings so that they may grow up in a normal balanced manner to be useful members of the society.
17. I am thus unable to agree with the Senior Counsel for the petitioner that the petition of the grandparents for guardianship of their minor grandson, in the lifetime of the parents, has to be thrown out at the threshold.
18. Mention may also be made of (i) Budhulal Shankarlal v. An Infant-Child, AIR 1971 MP 235 (DB) where custody of the minor was given to the foster parents as opposed to the natural father; (ii) Vegesina Venkata Narasaiah v. Chintalapati Peddi Raju, 1971 APLJ 123 (DB), where custody of the minor was allowed to remain with the grandmother; (iii) A.V. Venkatakrishnaiah v. S.A. Sathyakumar, ILR XXIX 1979 Kar. 334 (DB), where custody and guardianship of the minor was allowed to be retained by the maternal grandparents; (iv) Babu Ram v. Keshwa Chand Joshi, AIR 1978 P & H 174, where custody of the minor was granted to maternal grandparents instead of father; and, (v) Baby Sarojam v. S. Vijayakrishnan Nair, I (1994) DMC 79 (DB)=AIR 1992 Ker. 277 (DB), where custody of the minor was granted to maternal grandparents as opposed to father.
19. Even otherwise, no case for interference in exercise of jurisdiction under Article 227 of the Constitution of India with the order of the Guardianship Court of dismissal of the applications aforesaid is made out.
20. Dismissed.
No costs.
Petition dismissed.

(Corrects date consultations end to Sept. 6 from Sept. 5 in first bullet and paragraph 4.)
* Deadline for U.S.-China tariff consultations on Sept. 6
* Nike falls after boycott gains traction on social media
* Facebook drops 1 pct after brokerage downgrade
* Trade-sensitive Caterpillar, Boeing fall
* Futures down: Dow 0.28 pct, S&P 500 0.15 pct, Nasdaq 0.29 pct
By Shreyashi Sanyal
Sept 4 (Reuters) - U.S. stocks were set to open lower on Tuesday, as declines in heavyweights such as Nike and Facebook added to worries over trade negotiations between United States and other major economies, following the Labor Day weekend.
Nike dropped 3.1 percent in premarket trading as calls for a boycott of the sportswear giant gained traction on social media after it chose Colin Kaepernick as a face for adverts marking the 30th anniversary of its "Just Do It" slogan.
Facebook fell 1.4 percent after brokerage MoffettNathanson downgraded the social media giant to "neutral" from "buy" citing revenue growth deceleration.
A fresh round of U.S tariffs on $200 billion worth of Chinese goods are expected to take effect after a public comment period ends on Sept. 6.
U.S. President Donald Trump has told his aides he is ready to impose the tariffs as soon as the public comment period ends, according to a Bloomberg report last week.
Talks between Canada and the United States to renegotiate the North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA) ended on a sour note on Friday, but officials set plans to resume their talks on Wednesday.
Despite the looming tariff threats and trade uncertainties, the major U.S. indexes closed higher in August, with the Nasdaq posting its largest monthly gain since January.
"This has more to do with the fact that the markets have had a strong run in the past two to three weeks and it is normal for people to take a little bit of profits off the table," said Robert Pavlik, chief investment strategist and senior portfolio manager at SlateStone Wealth LLC in New York.
The dollar rose nearly half a percent against a basket of major currencies as trade concerns escalated.
Shares of trade-sensitive Caterpillar and Boeing slipped 0.6 percent.
Verizon fell 1.23 percent after a Barclays downgrade to "equal weight".
At 8:50 a.m. ET, Dow e-minis were down 73 points, or 0.28 percent. S&P 500 e-minis were down 4.25 points, or 0.15 percent and Nasdaq 100 e-minis were down 22.25 points, or 0.29 percent.
Advanced Micro Devices gained 1.5 percent and Qualcomm was up 0.9 percent after brokerages upgraded the chip stocks.
Data from the Institute for Supply Management on national factory activity index is expected at 10 a.m. ET. (Reporting by Shreyashi Sanyal in Bengaluru; Editing by Shounak Dasgupta)

" I'm Too Sexy " is by Right Said Fred, the Ivor Novello Award-winning British band. The song was written by Fred Fairbrass, Richard Fairbrass and Rob Manzoli.
The group was formed in London in 1989 by brothers Fred and Richard Fairbrass with Rob Manzoli joining as a guitarist in 1990.
Rob co-wrote " Get Sexy " by the British girl group Sugababes and also co-wrote many of Right Said Fred's most popular songs including " Deeply Dippy " and " Don't Talk Just Kiss ".
Production for the single was by TommyD ( Tommy Asher Danvers ) the British producer, songwriter and mixer. As a producer, he has worked with artists including Catatonia, KT Tunstall and Corinne Bailey Rae. In his songwriting career, he has worked with many of the biggest names in music including Kylie Minogue, Janet Jackson, Noel Gallagher, Kanye West, Jay Z, Beyoncé and Adele.
" I'm Too Sexy " was released on the 15th of July 1991 by record labels Tug ( UK ) and Charisma ( US ) and taken as the group's debut single from their debut album, UP.
Right Said Fred was named after the novelty song of the same name by actor Bernard Cribbins, the song was written by Ted Dicks and Myles Rudge. The 1962 single which reached number ten on the UK Singles Chart was inspired by workmen trying to move a Grand piano.
" I'm Too Sexy " is about men who are over-confident about their own sexiness and the fact they think they are too sexy for many things. The inspiration for the song came about when the brothers worked as Gym instructors at the Dance Attic, a London dance studio. They noticed how the males spent their time posing, so after borrowing £1500 ( pretending to buy a car ), they set about recording their debut single.
The group had a demo made as a rock track which came to the attention of Guy Holmes, the founder and CEO of Gut Records along with Intermedia promotions. He is best known for discovering some of the most prominent artists including U2, Duran Duran, Jesse J and David Guetta. He is also the man behind the Crazy Frog ringtone to music hit single.
In an interview with the British newspaper The Independent Guy recalled the first time he heard the song " I heard that coming back from a night out with this very cute girl I fancied – who didn't fancy me, unfortunately. She was sitting drunk on the back seat and said she managed a band. She put the cassette in and there was 'I'm Too Sexy,' an awful rock demo version. It was clear it would make a great dance record though. Radio One loved it, but no major would touch it. I thought bollocks to them and put it out myself – it sold six million singles and five million albums. "
The song was a commercial success for the group. In the United States, it reached Number One on the Billboard Hot 100 Chart and spent a total of thirty-five weeks on the chart there.
In the United Kingdom, the song reached a peak of number two. It equalled the previous record for the most weeks at number two held by Father Abraham's " The Smurf Song " in 1978.
" I'm Too Sexy " was held back by Bryan Adams with his single " ( Everything I Do ) I Do It for You ". Right Said Fred spent ten weeks in the Top Ten and a total of seventeen weeks on the UK chart.

text: Every new morning is a new beginning of our life. Every day is a completed whole. The present day should be the boundary of our care and striving (Matt. 6:34; Jas. 4:14). It is long enough for us to find God or lose God, to keep the faith or fall into sin and shame. God created day and night so that we might not wander boundlessly, but already in the morning may see the goal of the evening before us. As the old sun rises new every day, so the eternal mercies of God are new every morning (Lam. 3:22—23). To grasp the old faithfulness of God anew every morning, to be able—in the middle of life—to begin a new life with God daily, that is the gift that God gives with every new morning….Bonhoeffer
