Teachers have successive waves of nonsense crammed down their throats by people who are completely out of touch with what will work in a classroom. Part of the problem is the insistence on ‘integrating’ students into the classroom for social reasons without a fraction of the resources to enable the teacher to actually teach the rest of the class. Another ridiculous situation is having 30 students without enough English to be in an ESL class: The teacher is expected by admin to ‘cover the course’ anyway. Never mind that they may be barely literate in their own language and every one of them needing their own 1 on 1 personal assistant.
I am fond of Zdzisław Beksiński the Polish surrealist. He did one of a beautiful elevated canal that I have as a desktop background on my computer. Beksiński claimed, “I wish to paint in such a manner as if I were photographing dreams”.
Fat is likely less of a problem that all the sugar we eat, especially the (unnatural) high fructose corn syrup that is in so many things now. Until I learned about that stuff, I thought it odd that A & W was bragging about using cane sugar in their root beer.
