I took this while we were at one of the temples we visited in Bali... they were really curious about my camera and didn't mind me taking photos of them .... really cute ...
Watched a movie on StarMovie this afternoon , “The Ron Clark Story,” that stars Matthew Perry in the lead role.
After watching this movie , I googled " Ron Clark " .... and have found out the foloowing information

Ron Clark has been called "America's Educator." His work with disadvantaged students in rural North Carolina and in inner-city Harlem garnered worldwide attention, and he was invited to the White House on three separate occasions to be honored by the President and Mrs. Clinton.
Ron has authored two books that have become extremely popular in the education profession. His first book, The Essential 55, is a New York Times Best Seller and is currently published in over 25 countries and in its 11th printing of over one million copies.
Most recently, Ron is devoting the majority of his time to opening a school in Atlanta for students from low-wealth areas. The Ron Clark Academy will truly be unique as it applies a curriculum that is based on travel around the world. Each year the students will journey on international adventures, and by the time they are in 8th grade each child will have visited every continent.
I didn't get to watch the film from the beginning ..... would like to rent a DVD to watch it again or I think I will just get his book - The Essential 55 , which seems to be an interesting book .....
