Nobody Asked Me But:
Old Peculier Crime Writing Festival
Harrogate, England July 17-20
If you are a fan of crime fiction, would this not be a great book festival? The name is so delightful, so --- British.
Returning to my topic of three days ago, education, here are my thoughts on the three attributes of a great and successful teacher. He or she:
1. Is deeply caring about kids,
2. Has passion for what he or she is doing.
3. Has expertise in her or his subject(s).
ON THE LAKERS – YESTERDAY AND TOMORROW
Actually it was the day before yesterday when they were crushed by the Boston Celtics. What happened? They were out-defended, out-shot and, most importantly, out-toughed. Once more the more aggressive team won. The Celtics wanted it more.
However, we should not lose sight of the fact that the Lakers had a near-great year. They are young and, if Andrew Bynam returns whole, the future is theirs. This is not to say they should stand pat. It is time to move the wonderfully talented, woefully inconsistent Lamar Odom. A package of Odom, Luke Walton and Vladimer Radmanovic for an aggressive, highly-skilled, great shooting small forward would help them take the next step. That and:
A COMMITMENT TO PLAYING EXCELLENT DEFENSE!
