acrizzletham & videgard hansson arkitekts | colorful apartment at humlegarden, stockholm
tham & videgard hansson arkitekts first starting point was to reestablish the well crafted quality of the once high-class turn of the century apartment (late jugend / art nouveau 1800/1900) that had been totally altered, and even for some time transformed into a hotel, leaving very few traces of the original.OH OH OH nononononono i want this

The word “vote” appears 36 times in the U.S. Constitution. The word “arms” appears only once.
But voting is MUCH more dangerous than owning guns! Why, if we let the wrong people vote, they could vote to restrict access to guns!
I have just tried to mark a bunch if work that has piled up because of reports pushing everything to the side. I was planning on getting through a bunch of worksheets and some bookwork done before nicely organising it into files and recording my evidence.
This is for my year 1/year 2 class
Sheet set one - done today. Basic number activity describing a 2 digit number in by tens/ones, count on, before/after, words/numerals etc. We have done it almost everyday for the last 3 weeks.
I look at the first one… unfinished despite lots of pretty colours and a picture around the ‘twenty-six’ written. I move on. Next one is neat and tidy and finished. I mark it happily and find there is no name so I cant file it or record it in any way. Put it on a pile to work out for later. After this it gets worse.
I decide that any with no names are crumpled and thrown at the bin, leaving a mess on the floor. Unfinished ones get a nice little reminder and the students can do it AS WELL as tomorrows number card.
I am finished the first set of sheets with only half the class completing their work in any meaningful way, 4 others with extra work to do and the rest with their work a crumpled pile on the floor.
All the other marking can go and get fucked because Its probably the same and its not like I havent GONE OVER NAMES ON SHEETS a million times. I have the class repeat it back to me, I have them physically put their finger where the name IS written - not where it is GOING to be written. And still no names.
At least it is better than their bookwork where I have to constantly write, in BIG RED LETTERS
STOP DO NOT GO PAST THIS PAGE!!! GO BACK AND USE YOUR PAGES!!!
because some of them are well over half way through a book spacing out work that could fit on the first 4 pages without even being messy.
But they did better in PE today and we had fun.
TL:DR
Kids and names on sheets, whats the deal?

“The other big issue is conformity. We have built our education systems on the model of fast food…There are two models of quality assurance in catering. One is fast food, where everything is standardized. The other are things like Zagat and Michelin restaurants where everything is not standardized. They’re customized to local circumstances. And we have sold ourselves into a fast food model of education, and it’s impoverishing our spirits and our energies as much as fast food is depleting our physical bodies.”

theimprobablefictionAs much as these kids drive me completely crazy sometimes, I’m going to miss them. A lot. It’s finally set in I only have a month left with them.
I feel like it’s this weird parent-like instinct that’s taking over. Sure, most of them are only five years younger than I am, but they still feel…

Answer: Muramasa: The Demon Blade (Wii)
Very Close Runner-up: Okami (PS2, Wii)This was a tough decision for me, but in the end, Muramasa won out. I really enjoyed playing this game for many reasons. I think that the fact that they made it a 2D side-scroller was a really interesting choice considering the gaming market today. The designs were impeccable and flawless, with many creatures adding new twists to classic Japanese lore.
I couldn’t get over the fact that when you bought food, you actually got to step through the eating. You get a nice, beautiful plate of octopus dumplings and get to tap your way through a few phases of the meal with A. I thought it was neat. Made me hunger for Japanese food. XD
But yes, and Okami is kind of self-explanatory. While many people play Japanese games, not many actually see the influence of the culture. Okami was a way to incorporate Japanese myth and legend into a /very/ well-animated and designed world. I love it just as much as Muramasa. That’s why it was so hard to choose.
