"I don't think that being a strong person is about ignoring your emotions and fighting your feelings. Putting on a brave face doesn't mean you're a brave person. That's why everybody in my life knows everything that I'm going through. I can't hide anything from them. People need to realise that being open isn't the same as being weak."

- Taylor Swift

Some great "Paradigmatic" thinking about divergence (and the distinctions between smart and educated and enlightened).

Standardised testing designed to pick up differences in learning (and deficiencies, sometimes, in teaching) - now it creates them?

Uses for a paperclip potentially infinite.

Silos!

Loved the bit in the first video about how Ken might have been a soccer player.

"Engage people in the full process of who they are". [Educating the Heart and Mind].

Like the catering industry...? Chicken nuggets have nothing to do with chickens, more with gold and the batter.

Quality of Excellence has nothing to do with food.

Different and Great! And may your tonsils stay in your throat.
