it doesn't have to be something EPICALLY newsworthy, something every second kid is gonna have a picture of when you rock up at school..... there is conflict all around us, in all sorts of scales-- think about the consequences of changing ratings of programs, of train stations breaking down and forcing commuters to be stranded, think about conflict within one's self ---take anyone with an eating disorder, familial conflict strikes when their loved one is so helpless, natural disasters......conflict is all around us you can flick through any newspaper whether national or local and you can find examples. just try not to make generalisations, especially the comments about the workplace beneath that photograph, how do you know they are envious, mistrusting, etc. ? but apart from that, your ideas are fantastic, elvin.lam1, you really have got the gist of what you need to be focusing on, just tie up those ideas and it'll be perfect, start a conflict scrapbook for the year's work and keep adding to it throughout 2012!
