  • I have heard that the fims employed to design a school are often the same ones that do prisons, maybe because it has to deal with the same requirements. Lots of people, shower and toilet facilities, revocable access areas.

    The last 10-15 years in Western Canada though they have empoyed some stylish modern designs. In some cases too modern. Some looked amazing, lots of light, high ceilings, natural elements, etc but the architects forgot teachers need to store a lot of materials and the classroom had zero storage areas, as did rest of school. They ended up using the theatre stage as a storage zone. Which had to be cleared out for plays.

    Are you new to this world? Or just a youngling? While Wii wasn’t a high power console, it exploded from easy of pickup and play games, and a good set of add on devices to expand its use. I.e. for lightsabre games or bowling it had a Gyros plugin to install into the wand controller so it couldcalculates rotations in space. The balance board was used for tracking your weight from things like step workout, or you could use it for ski games, or balance challenges.

  • You won’t stop those that really want to gossip, judge and probe into peoples lives.

    The method I used to express I’m not interested when they continue to engage, beside the obvious method of not engaging in it and not talking behind peoples backs, was to say:

    Small minds talk about people, average minda talk about events, and great minds discuss ideas.

    Then they can sit with that and figure out if they want to take the insult of being a small mind.

    I also found that when there is the office Joke teller that just tells annoyingly lame jokes, that when they approach you and tell a joke, then reply with:

    I heard Jokes are a prop for people who aren’t inherently funny.

    They won’t approach you again :)
