Us folks in Los Angeles, or even America, like to think that we're king turd of shit hill when it comes to international cuisine at fair prices. Because we are. But, we can't sit still, because other cities are catching up.

Quetzaltenango, Guatemala has a range of cuisines.

I don't feel so special anymore.

A classic clip:

Clayton Holton is going to die without pot. He's going to each of the candidates and putting them on the hot seat, then posting videos.

Huffpost has a thing about him.

He even laid down some insight into pain and anger, and oxycontin. He said oxycontin (aka, hillbilly heroin) got him angry for no reason at all. Thing is, regular pain also gets you angry and depressed, and your body releases natural "drugs" to ease the pain, and these drugs are similar to heroin. There might be a connection.

This is a set of templates for creating Hipster PDA cards. The OTT files are blanks, and the ODT files are templates with information.

The "hipster pda" (I hate that name) is just a small stack of index cards held together by a steel clip or steel ring. It's basically a 50 cent notepad, but made of more durable paper.

To use the template, print a blank onto regular paper. Take some clear packing tape, and tape over the top line of each card, so the entire line is covered. Take two smaller bits of tape, around 2/3" long, and tape down a blank index card by the corners. Don't tape over the whole corner - just try to get maybe 1/4" of it. Now, feed this whole thing back into the printer.

Fill up a card with some information, and then print it. Here's my current template. It's a little grungy.

A year ago, an article about longitudinal testing of teaching exposed me to some new ideas. Recent web searching has turned up other articles. These generally refute the value of assesment tests like those mandated by No Child Left Behind, and point to a more effective use of testing to improve teaching.

Who grenaded his commander.
