The West won the world not by the superiority of its ideas or values or religion … but rather by its superiority in applying organized violence. Westerners often forget this fact; non-Westerners never do.

The most fundamental problem of politics is not the control of wickedness but the limitation of righteousness.

I'm stuck waiting out the seniors' award ceremony in a special education classroom for an hour. Had enough of this when I went to UT for my cousin.

I didn't know you worked in education. And being in here isn't all bad- the people around me are quiet or ignorable and I get to go on the computer.

No.

Sports Med is a college level course offered at my high school. If you're involved in sports and know what a Certified Athletic Trainer (ATC) is, they major in Sports Medicine or some fancy name meaning Sports Medicine.

Is it a class where you learn about medical issues related to sports? Though, I'm not involved in sports personally and I don't know what an ATC is.

Basically that yeah. Athletic Trainers are people schools hire to care for injuries in student athletes. Depending on the injury, athletic trainers can provide care and save student athletes on medical bills or maybe not. If the injury is beyond their legal restriction to care for, they'll call 911.

I was good when I got time to aim at the basket, and I always tried to block. But the PE teachers told me not to block the girls so forcefully.
