[OOC: More Police Squad! This time I actually found a way for discussion to happen based on it. Class Info Post.]

The Tick was standing at the podium at the front of the class as the students walked in.

"Hello, class! Turn your essays in to Rory."

"Today, we'll be talking about another case from Police Squad.( Class 12 )

"Today, we're going to discuss limiting reagents. I know this stuff seems tedious but it is vital when doing lab work. You don't want unbalanced solutions. Trust me when I say that there is no need to live through an explosion."

"There will be a test next Tuesday. Study."

The TV is once again in pride of place, and there's a different selection of snacks and soda.

"Okay, today, we're going to be watching Time Team: Live in Canterbury," Daniel explained. "Time Team is a popular British show, which deals with the process of field archaeology in the UK.

A bit of background on Canterbury. It's a cathedral city in south-east Kent. It's home to the Archbishop of Canterbury, who is the primate of the Church of England.

In Latin, it was known as Durovernum Cantiacorum, and it lay at the junction of roads from three of their ports; Regulbium (Reculver), Dubris (Dover) and Lemanis (Lympne)

The Cathedral was where Thomas a Becket was murdered in 1170. After this, Canterbuy became a major pilgrimage site, which lead, or leads," Daniel looked slightly confused at the tenses. "Chaucer to write The Canterbury Tales.

Okay, I think I've talked enough."

The lights were dimmed, and the show started.

Rory wandered in after ACJ and curled up behind the desk.

The library is here. There are books. There are even pretty girls to help you find them.

[ooc: ~~And while Rory is here except for 4th and 7th periods, her player will be AFK until 1:30 or so EST~~. I'm here now!]

( Foreign lit lecture )

After he is done leading both classes, he makes a special announcement:

"On Tuesday, we will have a special guest, Professor Chaucer. He will be lecturing both classes on the works of Dante Aligheri. It would serve you well to use this long weekend to become at least noddingly familiar with the works of Dante."

"We are now transitioning to the language of cats.

The cat, also called the domestic cat or house cat, is a small feline carnivorous mammal of the subspecies Felis silvestris catus. Its most immediate pre-domestication ancestor is the African wild cat, Felis silvestris lybica. The cat has been living in close association with humans for at least 3,500 years; the Ancient Egyptians routinely used cats to keep mice and other rodents away from their grain, and also believed that cats were sacred to the goddess Bastet. The history of the domestic cat may stretch back even further, as 8,000-year-old bones of humans and cats were found buried together on the island of Cyprus. Because the domestication of the cat is relatively recent, cats may also still live effectively in the wild, often forming small colonies. The cat's association with humans leads it to figure prominently in the mythology and legends of several cultures, including the ancient Egyptians, Vikings, and Chinese.

The unique sound a small cat makes is written onomatopoeically as "meow" in American English; "meow" or "miaow" in British English; "miaou" or "miaw" in French; "miao" in Mandarin Chinese and Italian; "miau" in German, Spanish, Finnish, Lithuanian, Polish, Croatian, Romanian and Portuguese; "miau" or "מיאו" in Hebrew;"miyav" in Turkish; "mjäu" in Estonian; "mowa'a" in Arabic; "nyaa" or "nyan" in Japanese; "meong" or "ngeong" in Bahasa Indonesia; "ngiau" in Malay; "nyau" in Swahili; "yaong" or "nyaong" in Korean; and various ways in other languages. The cat's pronunciation of this call varies significantly depending on meaning. Usually cats call out to indicate pain, request human attention (to be fed or played with, for example), or as a greeting. Some cats are very vocal, and others rarely call out. Cats are capable of about 100 different vocalisations, compared to about 10 for dogs. And that is only the vocal language that humans can detect; when combined with gestures and other means of expression, cats have a vocabulary and culture that nears that of many humans."

Consider this all the next time you encounter a feline. I am playing a documentary on jungle cats with subtitles, so that you may learn to recognize their language."

"Miss Hopeless-Savage, Miss Matthews -- I will expect you in my office on Wednesday to discuss next Thursday's class."

Sex Cultures: 6th Period

"First of all, I would like to thank you all for your wonderful presentations on Tuesday. I was pleased with all of your work."

"For our class today, we're going to study something a little bit different. The course is called Sex Cultures, but there must also, logically, be a state on the opposite side of that spectrum.

So... No-Sex Cultures. Today, we'll take our virgin plunge into the world of chastity, abstinence, celibacy, and asexuality.

Now, I am not going to ask for technical definitions when we discuss these ideas in class ~~because I like my brain unbroken, kthx~~, as we are going to function using the most base, widely accepted interpretations.

And instead of lecturing you this afternoon, I'm going to give you this handout, and I want you to pick one name ~~save Hamlet wtf~~ and write a quick reaction to their presence on the list. Hand it in before you go. Thank you."

Current Mood: good

"Today we talk more about developing the message," Josh said, "which you might remember we talked about way back during the third week of classes." He looked around the room. "With the scary message grids and that whole thing?"

He smiled. "Today, I want you to take the specifics of what you have learned about your condidate--his three big accomplishments, which are conveniently enough, due today--" he pointed at his inbox,"--and see if they fit in with what you had thought of as effective message. If not, decide if the message needs to change, or if you need to find examples that better reflect the image you want to project for the candidate."

He pointed at random. "Rory, how many days until the election?"

"Today we're going to review what we've learned so far in anticipation of your upcoming midterms. Do you have any questions that you'd like me to go over? I'll have study guides for you next week."

[ooc: sorry for posting so late, RL got the best of me and I don't have the energy to come up with real lectures today.]

"My apologies for missing class on Tuesday," Camulus says at the beginning of class, looking, well, gloaty and satisfied and generally on top of the world. "I am sure that Phoebe took very good care of you in my absence. She was to lead you in a discussion of the role of women in Arthurian legends and in events of the time. Today I'd like you to connect what you have learned of the Grail and of Grail quests with the women of the stories - Guinevere and Isolde, for example."

He stands and reaches for his notes to continue lecturing. "Guinevere was, of course, the wife of Arthur and the eventual cause of the downfall of the Arthurian court. She was won by Arthur in a game of drunken darts with King Iubne of the leprechauns." He blinked and looked down at his notes. "What? No. No, she wasn't. How did that get in there?" He scratched something out, frowning. "Queen Guinevere seems to have been selected for Arthur as a shining example of womanhood, and often their wedding is downplayed, as is her role at his death. Despite being married to King Arthur, Guinevere is desired by most of the prominent figures in the Arthurian legends, especially Perceval, Launcelot, Mordred, and Mickey Mouse." He paused again. "No. Not Mickey Mouse." He scratched something else out on his notes, then scanned down a few lines, scratching out a few more things, practically scowling now.

"So what does this have to do with Grail quests?" he continued, determined, after trying a few more sentences and finding his notes to be wrong, wrong, wrong. He went on about how both the women and the Grail were sought after because of the purity that they represented and the prestige they conferred on the knights, starting and stopping and growing increasingly irate as they were still wrong, wrong, wrong. And he began to get suspicious, suspicious, suspicious.

"Launcelot was the only one to never acheive - orgasm?!" With a snarl, Camulus flung the now-crumpled sheaf of notes to the ground and stomped out of the class, bellowing, "ORLIN!"
