Hi,
I was pleased to find out that the selling of grades which my kid had reported
was a stunt. Even more pleased that it was to teach about one of the metaphors
I was going to excoriate your staff with.
I was trying to figure it out. Walking the dog before my kid told me of it, I overheard
others of similar age asking each other if it were legal to sell grade. What the heck? I thought.
Later, my kid explained the full horror.
Was it budget desparation? The math didn't work. Cultural deprivation? A trial run? Was my kid making it up?
Even if he misunderstood, what had he misunderstood? And the misunderstood idea itself was a hazard.
I started to think of ways to express my disgust. I recalled the indulgences, how one could
buy one's way out of eg wars, jury, etc. (Not that I think conscription of any form is
constitutional.. nor subscribe to the sins the indulgences forgave..)
So tonight, I find out, when I ask, that it was to teach about indulgences.
I'd only caution against my other suspicion: a nonconsensual ethics test. But, I was delighted to find that
all is well in Irvine.

The mother of slain teen Trayvon Martin wants to trademark her son's name in the slogans, "I am Trayvon" and "Justice for Trayvon," according to two petitions filed with the United States Patent and Trademark Office.
"I am X" and "Justice for X" are memes, beetch.
And, commercializing is crass.

The real question is now: Who is Trayvon Martin and why did he jump George Zimmerman?
Maybe he was paranoid. He was kicked out of school for bringing narcotics in.
http://abcnews.go.com/US/wireStory/family-pot-linked-trayvon-martin-suspension-16004126#.T3Cl3DEgffg
He was 17, impulsive, trained in violence (football), and obviously not the Golden Boy his parents lied about.
Most cannabis users, are not inclined to violence. Cf. ethanol. But for all psychotropics, its the individual, not the material.

Obama's son would look like Martin? No, Obama is Irish/Kenyan. Martins parents are obviously slave imports from a different region of africa.
So Obama's son wouldn't be a 6'3 footballer who starts fights.
But given Obama's foreign policy, perhaps Obama is more right than he realizes --his son would *act* like Martin. And get the appropriate feedback ---kinda like the US is getting overseas...
An armed society is a polite society.

saw this
If the giant football player initiated violence against some neighbor talking at him, insteasd of leaving and/or telling him to f-off, does he not expect self-defense with whatever is handy when he attacks said questioner?
The football player had behavior problems at school; came from a broken family; not surprising he should be impulsive and violent. The shooter was nearly killed by the brute who attacked out of paranoia. GZ is a hero. Evolution wins.

"But the newly released police calls paint Andy Zelinko of Irvine as a man obsessed with law and order, with the minutiae of suburban life, and with black males."
Zelinko is a well documented war pornographer.
And expired cop.

So a guy watches an unfamiliar giant football black male act suspiciously in a neighborhood with a huge robbery rate.
The guy questions Trayvon Martin. No physical contact, just words. Yaba yaba. You never have to talk to anyone, just provide a DL if you're driving. We are citizens not livestock.
Trayvon Martin attacks George Zimmerman. Initiates force. Starts violence. Attempts a lethal blow to the face, etc.
George Zimmerman defends himself with whatever is handy.
Now Trayvon Martin is a golden saint; never mind his problems at school, broken family, towering football figure. F that. George Zimmerman is a hero, like Bernie Goetz.
Initiators of force are subject to evolution.
Also works for nations, hows that Occupy Iraq and Invade Afghanistan working out for ya?
Say what you want; touch me and you die. Its simple.
Impulsive, violent "children" learn that assault is
not a joke.
Buy ammo now, for the riots when GZ is exonerated.
