You can't flip the channel in China more than twice without landing on a show built around the variety show format. It may be focused on kids, teens, or the adult, but this format is without a doubt the most popular in the country. It can best be described by this "SAT-esque" saying:Variety shows are to China as sitcoms are to America.Wikipedia defines variety shows as:"A variety show or variety
This from the Messenger-Inquirer by way of KSBA:It is easy to become cynical about Kentucky's high school graduation rate, even though the picture is improving.After all, in this day and age of ever-higher demands for an educated work force, when close to 30 percent of students do not graduate from high school either on time or at all, we wonder what the future holds for those individuals.We also
This from USA Today:SEATTLE (AP) — Comparing graduation rates from one state to the next or even one school to another can be as difficult as trying to help your children with their math homework: everyone has their own way of coming up with an answer.That challenge is expected to go away within the next five years, but not without more pain, aggravation and money.U.S. Education Secretary Margar

MENTAL STATUS: "Excited". Can't wait to see the kiddo in her little graduation cap.Today is not the last day of school, but it is graduation day--or as the school likes to call it, "closing program" day. Ugh.

The graduation day is getting closer and closer. Does anyone have any idea on how to celebrate it? Or do we just go our own ways after the ceremony. I've been thinking of creating full length video (let say 1 hour) recording all the memories we shared for the past 4 years. Then, I've wondering what songs are best played in the video. Anyone got any suggestion? Hey, this is not an easy task, you kn

And the reason for the cancellations is good. Matt and I have a humble little room reserved at the Western Inn at the Chesterfield Spiritualist Camp. It's close and cheap and peaceful. It's on the National Historic Registry (or something). We are going to rediscover ourselves and maybe have lovely sex along the creekside (before all those damn mosquitoes hatch and if it doesn't fucking rain). No one will be there. No one wandering around the tomb that houses a painted statue of Jesus and always one or two lit candles. No one wandering around the totem pole or all the stone busts of enlightened past leaders. There will be no one at the hotel's front desk. We'll have to find our own key. Sadly enough, the Sunflower Inn is closed. The last time we stayed there, we liked to pretend t
