La Escuela Técnica Roberto Rocca quedó preseleccionada en el top 10 de escuelas más innovadoras del mundo.

Por Alfredo Dillon

En la Escuela Secundaria Presidente Domingo F. Sarmiento, de Junín, el cuidado del medioambiente forma parte de la vida cotidiana: es una forma de “hacer escuela”. El reciclado, el compostaje, el ahorro de energía, el compromiso con los animales y la investigación orientada a construir un futuro sostenible no son proyectos aislados o esporádicos, sino parte de la rutina habitual de este colegio estatal, dependiente de la Universidad Nacional del Noroeste de la Provincia de Buenos Aires (UNNOBA). A punto de cumplir 6 años, la escuela despedirá a su primera…

SONG WITHOUT A MELODY

GONE SONG

Oh there’s going over the hill, Bill,

also going over the edge.

And then there’s gone, gone, gone.

Their memory of you is at thirty-two

or whenever they knew you last.

Hey hey.

It’s great to be poor

–yet let in the door–

but there’s a big traffic jam

at the eye of the needle.

So I’ll just sing this song and

toddle  along.  Gone, I’m gone.

Still the poor garbage man lingers,

While the auctioneer jingles

coins in his pocket and bangs

down  his gavel, shouting

“Going, Going, Gone!”

Ya think?  Hey hey.

Thoughts On Giving

bluejayblog

Dad used to say that you can tell if someone has a prosperous mindset if they are generous when they don’t have to be. He seemed to follow through on his words more often than not. Although he was not extremely wealthy in the conventional sense, dad picked up the tab for guests at restaurants and movie theatres. He often volunteered his spare time to help with other people’s projects. He practiced balancing thriftiness and extravagance to a high degree.

Dad grew up during the Great Depression in a part of North America that was afflicted by the Dust Bowl. People like dad who struggled through that double-whammy learned how to get by and stay alive in seemingly impossible conditions. Families helped one another and shared whatever resources they could. The sense of community was palpable.

While pondering generosity, I cannot help but think of people who devoted their lives…

Think before you think

On a mission

We human beings can recreate ourselves every day. So they say to think before you think.

What we think is our soul food. A positive and happy soul has more power and energy to respond to all situations.

Some of the self-questions to ask

1. Why this thought

2. Does it make sense

3. It’s self-created because of fear or

4. Someone told me something

5. Did I read something

6. Welcome and bye the thoughts that have no weightage.

Be a problem solver and its starts from your home oops your thoughts!

Promises, Promises!!!

Filosofa's Word

Over the past few years, I’ve noticed something about candidates’ campaign promises … they sound more like threats than promises!  Take, for example, Republican candidate Vivek Ramaswamy who says he will shut down the Department of Education and replace the FBI, IRS, and other agencies, though he doesn’t specify what he will replace them with.  Shut down the Department of Education???  That’s a threat, not a promise!

Ramaswamy also claims he will raise the voting age from 18 to 25 … how is that a promise?  The voting age was lowered from 21 to 18 by the 26th Constitutional Amendment in 1971, in part because it was seen as wrong that young men as young as 18 could be forced to risk their lives serving their country in the Vietnam War, but did not have a voice in the government they served.  Ramaswamy shows his ignorance in saying he…
