Indian Universal Truths #2 7)There Are No Unemployed Artists If a vehicle hauls anything - from hay to humans - it is decorated to the fullest degree. Indian trucks, taxis, rickshaws, peditaxis, even ox carts are covered stem to stern in slogans, initials, pictures, floral designs, and pinstripes. Usually all at once. No space is left undecorated. Even the windshields are bespangled until the barest minimum space is left to operate the vehicle to a passable degree. Trucks, the masters of the road, in particular have taken the artform to the highest levels. We've seen trucks from every state looming up to us, passing us or heading directly towards us for hours on end, so have a pretty good idea what's out there. Some advice for aspiring truck artists: Know your canvas. For most truck artists it is the standard brown flatbed truck the size and roughly the same shape as a Mack truck in the US. Atop of said truck is a headboard like crown that should depict the nickname of the vehicle or home town in large multicolored script. Immediately below that is more text but in one of the local languages and I haven't the foggiest what that says. Maybe it's a translation of the first. You'll have to ask around. All around the edges of the windshield should be stripes, huge intials of the drivers, maybe even illustrations in cut vinyl of saints, prophets, holymen or even Jesus. On the grill it is customary to have large, rainbow-colored floral motifs, lotus flowers, flying monkeys, or scroll work designs. The entire grill should be pinstriped in every color of paint the shop has. No scrimping. The bumper should have a pithy description of the driver's such as, "Road King" (very popular,) "Water King,""Super Fast,""King of the Road," or the trump card - "King of the Kings." The sides, where possible, should be decorated also. "Diesel" should be stenciled on the gas tank with decorations following the same theme as the front grill. The mudflaps are good for stencils of praying hands, flowers, elephants or the popular devil's face with extended tongue. I think he wards off demonic flat tires. The back of the truck is wonderful for getting across a message to the world considering you'll have a large and attentive captive audience behind you as take up both lanes on the "highway". The irony won't be missed on those in the rear of your lumbering, black-smoke-beltching beast with such progressive phrases as, "Save Rain Water" and "Trees = Life". While the obvious "Black Smoke Lungs Choke" will leave folks scratching their heads wondering if you are "for" or "against". You may score more good samaritan points with the topical "Stop Aids" or "Help Childrens" or the like. This is good place to get creative so don't hold back. Interspersed amongst the politicking it is a good idea to give immediate instructions to those behind you. No truck can be road-ready without "Stop & Proceed" or "Please Sound Horn Please" in large dayglo type. 8) The Same Words Mean Different Things Britain was here mucking about for almost 300 years unchecked. The locals were finally able to rid themselves but were stuck with remnants of the English language. Since all the local languages are equally Greek to us, it was confusing when English words in use in India suddenly didn't mean the same thing from one town to the next. It was as if someone was playing a trick on us. For example, "hotel" in Kerla and Tamil means "hotel". In Telugu it means "restaurant." If you want a hotel you have to ask for a "lodge." "Meals" is a term for a rice based all encompassing dinner, like a Hungryman from Swansons. It is great to order in a restaurant as you get 15 different cups of stuff to mix with your rice. Leaving Tamil and entering Telugu, we have learned to ask for "Thali". In the tourist paradise of Kochi, the phrase "As you like" meant that "I have heard your request, understood it, and am now off to complete it for you." In Chennai it meant "I won't tell you the price for this cab ride and just keep saying 'As You Like.' There is an outstanding chance that if you pay whatever you think it's worth I'll get way more money out of the deal." We had to literally threaten to jump out of a cab unless we got a price. Cab drivers will do anything to be your driver for your entire stay, camping out in their car outside your hotel, just for chance to fleece you royally. In Tamil "Autos" are autorickshaws and "rickshaw" is a bicycle rickshaw. I have no idea what they call the footpowered rickshaws. In Telugu cars are "autos" and autorickshaws are "mini-taxis". There are "4 in all" and "7 in all" sizes of autorickshaws unlike the rest of Southern India although they seem to pack in how ever many they like. 9) Techo is Music to Eat By There hasn't been a restaurant to date that wasn't blasting the most insipid Euro-Techno loudly. Today was the first day we entered a restuarant and they were playing something with local Indian flair. It was our hotel restaurant which surprised us greatly as they hadn't deveated from the norm prior. We weren't there 2 minutes before they switched to the techno. I went so far as to comment on how the previous music was so nice and ask what it was. Our waiter had no idea and kept smiling. Maybe the idea is that you'll eat faster and get out. 10) To a Westerner India Looks Swishy Public displays of affection are strictly forbidden...unless you are men. In a culture where marriages between a man and a woman are rarely for love, the long-lasting emotional relationships in our life, as a man, are with other men. Men aren't allowed to touch women publically if the women were ever seen outside, which they aren't. For men, holding hands, walking with arms around shoulders, riding on a tiny moped, 3 to a seat is quite normal and occuring every 5 feet in India. This cultural norm is expressed by males from the smallest boys to the oldest men. They are sitting in parks, under trees, seemingly cuddling to our Western eyes. There are male beauty parlors everywhere with no female versions that I've seen. Men can where nail polish here. Their bars are all men listening to Euro dance music from the mid-Eighties. They put vinyl slogans on their cars such as "Flamboyant". There are billboards all over town with hunky, nearly naked men selling tiny briefs with the headline, "Prepare To Be Assaulted." Homosexuality is illegal in India. Acting like it isn't. cheap oem software buy software

Review : Swiss Manager is a system utility, providing task manager, file manager and system information services. The freeware Swiss Manager is an essential addition to your UIQ3 phone! Major features: Management of running programs (task information, task switch, task exit). Release memory by exiting all running programs at once, optionally when closing the flip or after idle time. Navigation throughout the phone''s drives and their entire file system. File management (copy, move, delete, rename). Displaying the amount of free memory and disk space. Useful system information (device characteristics, system uptime, battery level, IMEI number, etc.). Since I've some problems with Swiss Manager Pro and the 'key', I realise to look for the same applications. I found Swiss Manager UIQ. It's freeware so it means we don't need its license key. So far, the differences between this app and SMP (Swiss Manager Pro) that I've known is the level of the Memory reclaim. In this freeware, it only have 2 levels of memory reclaim beside the SMP have 3 levels. Download : here buy software cheap oem software

I submitted the following article to the Australian Maths Teacher Journal in 1994 but it was rejected for publication. The note I received back said that my students hadn't really achieved much learning in Fractions. I still think this was a very worthwhile Project and that the reviewer didn't take into account all of the meta-learning that happened. The approach used is still relevant today but it does require a high skill level for the teacher in a variety of areas - programming skills and managing a complex learning environment. The article also includes a comprehensive explanation of the "instructional software design project" approach which was pioneered by Idit Harel and Seymour Papert and which still draws positive reviews today. Anyway, the era of paper journals is over. I can publish what I want. You, the reader can ignore, critique or praise. Education Software: Designed by Kids, for Kids - link to full article written by Bill Kerr in 1994 Abstract Students at the Year 8 level used LogoWriter software to design computer screens to teach Year 3/4 students Fractions. Students were set the task of doing transformations between words, symbols and pictures using LogoWriter. They recorded their experiences in a journal and identified problems they encountered and solutions to those problems. They helped each other solve problems in Fractions, design and computer programming. Outcomes from this learning sequence included expressive writing about mathematics, improved scores in a Fraction test, improved fluency in Logo programming, improved self management skills, increased cognitive resilience (overcoming frustration and not giving up), improved time management, and increased faith by the students in their own thinking patterns. Students remained motivated and interested in the Fractions topic for a 7 week block using this approach. The culture of mathematics was perceived by the students to be different and more interesting than traditional textbook maths. Some students dropped in at recess and lunch to work on their projects. The final combined software product is a useful piece of educational software that can be utilised by other teachers for diagnostic purposes as well as being an exemplar of what can be achieved with LogoWriter when it is used in this way. Conclusion Teachers face the task everyday of how to make their subjects relevant and interesting to their students and this is seen to be a particular problem with maths. One way to look at this is from the point of view of objects to think with. The teacher and students co-construct a learning environment that is replete with "objects to think with". These "objects" include: The challenge of teaching others and designing screens for this purpose using Logowriter The structure of fractions and their transformations (words, symbols, pictures) Other students, eg. best friends, class experts, the Year 3/4 students Teacher (Is he/ she approachable, friendly and skilled?) Journal reflections Taken together these objects represent the ISDP (Instructional Software Design Project) Harel and Papert (1990) argue that some materials are better with regard to the following criteria: appropriability (some things lend themselves better than others to being made one's own) evocativeness (some materials are more apt than others to precipitate personal thought) integration (some materials are better carriers of multiple meaning and multiple concepts) When used in the way described above LogoWriter is a most effective learning medium to think about Fractions and Design according to these criteria.

I'm not sure what to blog about, so I'm going to ramble. This isn't necessarily out of the ordinary, right? First of all, I've been thinking about some positive qualities I'd like to develop related to a quote in that Maryknoll magazine I mentioned for Independence Day about different ways of looking at people. Basically, the story was about a missionary priest of a village feeling obligated to do something to punish a parish member who had divorced or otherwise cheated on his wife for another woman. The rest of the community, although in no way approving of the unfaithfulness of the man, felt little inclination to ostracizing or otherwise punish "the adulterer". The priest learned that his parish members took a holistic view of the man, weighing his contributions to society over his personal shortcomings and spiritual crimes, while he himself was fixated on the negative. WWJD? Obviously, it depends on circumstances and consequences. My take on this is more general. While pessimism is a terrible philosophy in general, optimism isn't necessarily the cure. The priests parish members didn't necessarily try to just look for the good in a person, so much as looking at the whole picture. To do that, one should merely control their emotions. If something about someone really bothers me, I tend to get fixated on it and allow it to irrationally dominate my impressions of him/her, masking positive qualities. And, having heard the Dalai Lama talk last Sunday, emotion, be it love or hatred (yes, strong word) cripples reason. My original hope for myself, however, was indeed to look for the best in people--to see their potential and help them realize it, even if they don't see it themselves. SOURCE: Procrastination : /
