how to spot a bastard by his star sign
AQUARIUS BASTARD
Aquarius is the most reasonable bastard you??ll ever encounter. He??ll even agree
he is a bastard. If he was born out of wedlock then he is one by definition, and
if you want to call him a bastard for other, more personal reasons, he??ll
certainly allow you your opinions.
And he won??t, like other bastards and real astrologers, dismiss this book as
amateur astrological crap. In his mind, every viewpoint gets a hearing, every
belief system has some legitimacy. To top things off, he??s likely to be
annoyingly good looking (well there goes your ability to remain objective).
Cuteness aside, open-mindedness and tolerance in a bastard has its own set of
problems. A very different set of problems than what you??re used to. In fact,
after years of dealing with men who don??t listen to you when the football, the
television or the fridge is on, you??ll be totally unequipped to deal with
Aquarius.
Standard forms of male manipulation (e.g. screaming like a banshee or carefully
planned sex deprivation) don??t work on Aquarius. He is more profound and more
complex than the average bastard. Whilst normal little boys were constructing
little Lego spacecraft piloted by little Lego spacemen from the planet Biffo,
Aquarius junior was delving into the mysteries of existence. True, he did it via
television and comic books, but his sincere intention to discover the deeper
meaning of life was there. The distressing thing is, he managed to find depth
and reality in The Brady Bunch and in the Bat Cave and will regale you with
their profundity.
Spending his formative years as a weirdo has resulted in the adult Aquarius male
holding radical beliefs. He doesn??t have to stick to one system of thoughts as,
say, the poor communists do. He can adopt an ideology to fit his mood and
situation. And he??ll be happy as long as it allows him to oppose some commonly
held belief ??? your belief in marriage, for instance.
Taking the opposing stance is the foundation of all his beliefs. And once everybody else is a radical, left-wing, feminist-seperatist-greenie-with-a-nose-ring, he??ll become more than conservatism is to do what everybody else is doing. He prides himself on his ???otherness??.

I see the same thing cbo your patient with their downside but they seems to have trouble with others. from my experience
Well, when I was looking at the preview for this thread, I was trying to guess what you would associate with aquasnoz and I thought of blueberry, so I guess I'll go with that. I'll have to think about other members...
Seraph and root beer came to mind, but I think that's a biased thought since his avi is brownish.

Good News... My friend and her pisces guy have been chatting.
He has made a few flirty comments.
She told him "sweet dreams".. He said about me?
She said yes.. I do have sweet dreams about you. He replied Nice.
I gave her a high five for playing it cool.
Sounds like things are taking a step in a good direction. You never know.

I mean it is easy to sit and come up with conspiracy theories that are not all that unlogical even with thin proof to back it but I would say in general a government always has to consider the future. And if we consider 'knowledge' to be 'power' and the population as a whole is less knowledgeable than other developed countries... one can only conclude that that means that the country eventually will or is in essence less powerful then other countries so to speak. No matter what your opinion or conspiracy theory is whether you buy into corporatocracy and that the real rulers are Big Business Owners... that they manipulate society so that only their offspring make it into the highest achieving schools to support a continual cycle of Economic Oppression... you just view it as corrupt politicians taking advantages anyway they can to take the tax money of the country to use to their advantage their is one problem with the theory....
If these supposed horrible evil people do in fact do what some may well think they do... How could it be logical that these evil people would not support a stronger education system within the boundaries of the country they reside in. Their children still have to learn to be strong intelligent Men and Women to run the Massive Corporations they have worked so hard to build.... or the eventually outcome will be their family losing control of their rightfully owned business to more cunning share holders.. I would think these people have egos to go along with their massive success they will want to leave a legacy no? Same goes for the children of the 'Corrupt Politicians'. I don't believe there could so many people that evil and corrupt that they would not even consider their own kids... not that their aren't those that exist but I'm speaking purely on the majority and not the minority.
Besides, poorly educated and weak offspring would make them look bad no?

But then why the following conundrum...
So, in general as it stands right now the US, the country with highest GDP of all other nations in the world 15.1 trillion in 2011...even china is behind by practically 10 trillion...
This high powered..and efficient country somehow ranks 14th out of 34 OECD countries for reading skills, 17th for science and a below-average 25th for mathematics (OECD stands for Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development).
How can this be?
Well their are a lot of contributing factors but one for damn sure is government funding and generally how it is funded..
-First of all are money is going towards a nationally based testing system in the attempt to keep a regular eye on how well our public teachers are performing overall.. but basing it purely on the performance of their students. Now, I will say a good teacher no matter what will always have an impact on any students performance BUT the learning and gathering of knowledge at the end of the day is still a self-motivated act that in no way can be completely blamed on any teacher ...and with the current system in no child left behind it really is.. and it's slightly unfair and not helping as much as it should. 'No Child Left Behind' enacted by George W. Bush's administration was considered groundbreaking at the time for it's promise to focus on individual student achievement and overall school performance BUT this law overtime has weaknesses and a lot of it has to do with our countries views as a society more than anything (but I will touch in that later). From a CNN opinion OP-E
The law's "Highly Qualified Teacher" requirements value tenure and credentials over an educator's ability to motivate students in the classroom. Strict mandates and funding restrictions stunt the development of innovative local education programs.

Our children deserve better than that. And how much help can this law help those coming from lower income families, the main group this law was partly put into action for, if it is going to help cater to lazier tenured teachers? The lower income children essentially it really benefiting much at all depending on the situation of course.... not all teachers who are tenured are bad teachers nor are all teachers bad.

-Secondly Our society as a whole has a misconstrued view on the profession of teaching and how much respect and or compensation a teacher receives. We do not attach much value if any at all to the profession of teaching. Mainly because we are a society of individual acheivement and excellence. While a teacher may be good they don't bring home the dough... there are those who would not be teacher just from the lack of respect for the job in general even despite the income. Teaching effectively and good is not an easy task like some might like to think. The subject matter may be easy to the more highly educated but just because you know so much does not mean you could teach the subject well... teaching is skill and not a very praised one in our country unlike other countries where students on average acheive much much higher then we do here in the US.
I think the only way to eleviate the quality of teacher problem is to make it more rigorious to be a teacher... and have higher degrees of education. As well as pass certification tests to ensure the knowledge and skills supposedly ascertained by the degrees earned macth the skills required to be an effective teacher. Even, possibly use the money we are using for all this rigourious testing of students and focus it more on testing the teachers of our country and also possibly using it to raise their salaries to make the profession more appealing to the more talented folk of our country... as at the end of the day money is more valued then the profession itself overall in this country. And this infact is to some degree how other countries approach it outside of the "money" suggestion which is more tailored to our society in motivating more people to want to be Teachers as it would seem the only way to add more respect to the profession would be to add $ signs to the salary you could potentially earn. Also, pay teachers better wages based on their performance rather than giving weak teachers and strong teachers the same salary.
