SURVEYS, STUDIES & SUCH
A new study from Kazakhstan suggests that art classes may do more than spark creativity — they can boost focus, memory, and even reshape values. Researchers followed 127 college students, splitting them into 2 groups: one stuck to regular coursework, while the other added weekly art sessions in painting, music, and cultural history. After a semester, the art group showed stronger concentration, sharper recall, and a dramatic rise in creativity, jumping from “low” to nearly “high.” They also placed greater importance on kindness, achievement, and caring for others and the environment, suggesting art fosters both academic growth and personal development.

BIG SCREEN-LITTLE SCREEN
Charlie Sheen, who is promoting his new memoir and a Netflix documentary about his tumultuous career, now claims he’s been celibate since getting sober in 2017. In “The Book of Sheen”, released Tuesday, the “Two and a Half Men” star wrote that there’s “not enough room in my car” for dating right now. In a recent interview, he shared that he hasn’t had a girlfriend in almost a decade, prompting the interviewer to ask if that meant he’d been celibate. His answer: “If I don’t have a girlfriend and I’m not paying for it, then I think the math is pretty simple.”
Prince Harry and King Charles III have reunited for the first time in over a year. The Duke of Sussex was spotted arriving at the King’s London home, Clarence House on Wednesday for “a private tea.” The pair chatted for almost an hour, much longer than the 30 minute meeting they had the last time the duke visited his father. The father and son had not met in person since February 2024, following Charles’ announcement that he was being treated for cancer.
Netflix is expanding the delightfully macabre world of “Wednesday”. After stealing scenes in the first 2 seasons of the hit series, ‘Uncle Fester’ is getting his own spin-off. Fred Armisen, who plays Uncle Fester, broke the news during an appearance on “The Tonight Show”. When Jimmy Fallon asked about rumors of spinoff, Armisen was quick to confirm, saying: “We’re working on it… It’s fantastic… It’s amazing.” He offered no further details, which suggests the project is in the early stages of development.
DID YA KNOW!?
A rainbow on Venus is called a glory. Appearing as a series of coloured concentric rings, these are caused by the interference of light waves within droplets, rather than the reflection, refraction and dispersion of light that makes a rainbow.

OF THE DAY
According to a study, Americans are considered the coolest people in the world.
Pickleball isn’t just North America’s fastest-growing sport — it’s a full-blown addiction. Nearly 20 million people played in 2024, and doctors say the resulting surge in injuries proves players just can’t quit. Orthopedic surgeon Dr. Timothy Charlton calls pickleball “a drug,” and tells of patients with bones sticking out of skin still asking, “When can I get back on the court?” Achilles ruptures, torn menisci, and fractured wrists are the most common injuries, especially among retirees who play for hours like they’re chasing a high. One Beverly Hills patient even ditched her medical boot for $3,000 YSL wedges so she wouldn’t miss matches. Another was so focussed on having her paddle color match her shoe color that she neglected the basics of proper fit. Doctors warn that proper court shoes, stretching, and warm-ups are the only safeguards against getting hurt – but because for some, the game is “a drug”, the craving to play pickleball outweighs common sense.

WEIRD NEWS
The idea of paying for the chance to make friends might seems like a strange one, but in Toronto, a growing number of companies are offering the service, with the aim of helping people expand their social circles. Platforms such as 222, Groupvibe, and Timeleft use personality tests to match participants and then organize curated activities, from group dinners to outdoor hikes. Members can pay per event or opt for a monthly subscription with unlimited access. 222 launched in the city this summer and now runs 6 events weekly, while Groupvibe operates in more than 50 cities worldwide, drawing hundreds of participants each month. Attendees say the structured environment makes people easier to approach and friendships easier to form, especially in a city where loneliness is common. Psychologists note the services can help rebuild social skills, though the pay-to-participate model may carry some risks.
