After 27 years of entertaining millions every morning, Sir Terry Wogan left the breakfast show on BBC Radio 2. Chris Evans, mostly known for his eccentric behaviour and bad boy attitude took over the golden microphone in January this year. Will he manage to woo Wogan's audience?
Chantl du Plooy investigates whether Chris Evans has what it takes to fill the legendary broadcaster's shoes.
The ultimate icon
After almost three decades hosting Europe's most loved breakfast show, Sir Terry Wogan has moved on to a different slot. The 71-year-old Irish presenter will host a new two-hour show on Saturdays, which involves performances from an 11-piece band in front of a 350-seat audience.

By now, everyone knows that there are ways to sell art work online. Artwork can be sold through online gallery portals, personal websites and auction sites. But how does a person make sure that his art stands out against all of the artists that are hawking their wares online?
Have an Offline Art Presence
Wait! What? Isn't the easiest way to sell artwork through the internet? Sure, the internet is a great way to get your artwork in front of most of the world, but not everyone loves the internet as much as you (and we) do. Submit your work to art fairs, craft wares and local art festivals. Teach an art class. Every sale you make or person you show your art to becomes a potential online customer as well.

You may use this as a lesson plan and give it to a friend you care about. When a friend gets off track and needs guidance, you can give him a dose of old fashion wisdom. Ma ma is a hero and no matter your age, she still has a big influence over you because ma ma knows best.
The problem occurs with your friend because he knows better, but he is not willing to do better. He is not willing to accept responsibility for any of his actions. One way of getting him to recognize that he has a problem is by writing him a “Ma ma said no!” poem.
Sample Poem:
Ma Ma Said No!
No! No! She said,
“Don’t touch that”

How many times have you come back from a trip disappointed with the images you’ve taken? How many times have you though to yourself “If only I’d been there an hour early. If only I’d known that event was on today”. While it is true that hindsight makes everyone smarter, and no one can control the weather, it is possible to maximize your chances of success just by doing a little homework.

Do you find yourself worrying all the time? Do you think that something bad is going to happen to you? If so, when you find yourself constantly living in fear, you need to pray more. Maybe you know of someone that fits this description, and you do not know how to handle the problem. If the problem is a serious one, you need to encourage the person to get professional help.
Regardless of whether the problem is minor or serious, you should ask your Heavenly Father to protect and keep you from any harm or danger. One way to remind yourself and others that you have nothing to fear is by writing yourself a poem on “He is There,” and sharing it with them.

To a friend or family member whom you just want to say, “thanks.” To let them know how much you appreciate the things that they have done for you. When someone does something for you that you cannot put a price tag on it, just say, “thank you.” You may not have money to give someone as a reward for solving an unusual problem in your life. Yet, there is a desperate need to show your appreciation by giving the person some type of recognition. One way to show appreciation to someone you consider a hero is by writing the person a “thank you” poem.
Sample Poem:
Thank You
Thank you for the many things you do
the friendship, love, and devotion too

Everyone needs to be inspired to continue to do their best in life. A touch of inspiration is simply receiving a little revelation from a person or thing that inspires. You can be inspired by a song, idea or anything that uplift your spirit. Inspiration could come from praying and meditating or from a letter or poem.
Are you currently on someone’s email list to receive your daily devotion to start your day? What happens if you miss a day of receiving your inspirational email? Do you consider it a good or bad thing? Others need to be inspired just like you do. You may continue to inspire others by writing poems similar to “A Touch of Inspiration.”
