It took me awhile to locate this because it is so hard sometimes searching for old documentation. (Under read more, so feel free to ignore. I'm just rambling about Indiana graduation requirements.)
But I managed to find the graduation requirements for Indiana in the 80's from a State Standards Update Report. And maybe I'm just being biased, but it seems stupidly easy to graduate up to the new regulations being introduced which would have started for the Party's graduating class. Like I get that the man was not school-smart in any way, but why was Eddie struggling? Like could he not get through the electives? Like my mom, who fucking struggled in school and had to do so much remedial and makeup work just to get her credits don't get me wrong, managed to graduate easy in 87 (In Texas, but their requirements were similar). I had at least double, if not more, of all those credits (minus electives) at my graduation. I must just be on a level academically where I just don't get it because I don't understand how he was thinking he still might not graduate after six years.
But a regular four years then of a 7 school period day was 56 credits. Some schools did have 6 school periods in a day still then, but that is still 48 credits. He had to have been failing all but one or two of his classes a semester to still be in school (usually only one).

hey hey shay! this is late but i wanted to thank you for the tags you wrote on my promo post!! it made me smile ;w; i love when my friends use both pronouns for me waahhh ALSO I DIDNT KNOW YOU LIKED NEO TWEWY???? what are your favorite character moments for everyone if you have any?
Thank you for the ask!!! :D and yeyeye of course! im glad to make my good friends smile C:
and YEAH i do! i didn't play the original, but you can thank @izabellwit's fics, especially all that's left in the world, for getting me invested in the characters. Then when NEO came out, I decided to hit up some playthroughs since I didn't have a switch, and. g-ddamn i was in love.
like the story FUCKED unequivocally but i got sucked in primarily because of the voice work, especially since most of the cast (VAs for Rindo, Nagi, Beat, Neku, Sho, Rhyme, Coco, Shiba, Tsugumi and Hishima) haven't really been in any projects on this scale that I can tell (besides for other TWEWY stuff and KH3D for the veteran characters). Even tho Neo TWEWY isn't like a huge pop culture phenomenon by any means, I'm still hoping this turns into a breakout role for them. Like if this doesn't pay off for Paul Castro Jr, Bailey Gambertoglio, Miranda Parkin, Crawford Wilson, Jessie David Corti, Andy Hirsh, Ashley Rose Orr, Shaun Conde and James Austin Kerr? I'm rioting, they ROCKED this fucking game.
And then on top of that, there's some fucking amazing VAs with history in the industry. Xanthe Huyn as Kuon, Xander Mobus as Tanzo Kubo, Nicolas Cantu as Hazuki and Aaron Spann as Joshua. All of them do phenomenally and it makes me so happy to see them here. Skylark, Kirk Thornton and Robert Buclotz did some damn good work on production and voice direction too, like, you can really tell the voice direction is on point when the entire cast is consistently hitting their vocal mark. Helps that they have some damn charming writing to go off of too.
Anyway uhhh sorry for rambling about VA stuff, ummmm, character things.....Nagi was an eternal delight, and I had the biggest dumbest grin whenever she was on screen. It's impossible to pick a specific favorite moment, she's just a delightfully unhinged weirdo and the loser girl bisexual representation we absolutely needed. Coco was similarly fucking delightful, I like fully came into this game expecting to hate her cause she shot Neku but. it took about two seconds of her being on screen before I forgot that completely and decided I loved her character. As far as actual moments though...tbh the entire last hour of the game was just fucking golden. Shiki showed up and I pogged out of my mind, the entire ensemble came together to fight off the noise, fucking JOSH arrived and was just as big of a condescending asshole (affectionate) as he always is, the protags used all of their powers in unison, the final boss fight was perfectly badass and then everything got wrapped up nice, and that final moment with Shoka getting grumpy at Rindo for not checking his inbox, just....amazing. All golden. I couldn't stop grinning.
But as far as favorite moments? Rindo and Haz's conversation nearly brought me to tears, holy shit.
Haz: "What makes [Shibuya] so special? Why fight so hard to protect it?"
Rindo: "I dunno. It doesn't feel very special right now."
Rindo: "I'm going back. I'm going to save the city and my friends. Without them, all of this means nothing. Shibuya isn't special without them here!"
lost my entire shit it was amazing. g-d what a fucking character moment. rindo's the best, love that kid.
#anyway uh djfgbj sorry this is so fucking long djhfbgjhb#i have normal thoughts and feelings about this game#neo twewy

An Appreciation of the Life and Work of Joanne Kyger
The bio in the back of On Time, Joanne Kyger’s collection of poems written between 2005 – 2014, describes her as, “One of the major women poets of the SF Renaissance.” That is, of course, correct, but I would make a case for removing the word “women” from the sentence. While I’m sure the intention of including that gender signifier was to emphasize the importance of her position as a woman in what was largely a man’s world/boy’s club, its placement before “poets” in the sentence diminishes rather than enhances her standing. It reeks of “pretty good for a girl” condescension, unintended as that may be.
Joanne Kyger was one of the major poets of the San Francisco Renaissance coterie, period. She was a woman. She was a woman who, despite operating in what was largely a man’s world/boy’s club, became a major member of that club. But even that SF Renaissance signifier, while more accurate than the Beat Generation designation emphasized in her New York Times obituary and useful in placing her in time and place and lineage, seems unnecessarily limiting. In his introduction to As Ever, her selected poems released in 2002, Kyger’s longtime friend and fellow poet, David Meltzer, says of the atmosphere in the late ’50s when they first met:
“It’s important to remember (or realize) that those days were before literary academicians freeze-framed them into ‘movements or ‘generations.’ The slickest, surest way to defang dissent and creative doubt is to accept it and (ugh) incorporate it into glossy narratives circulated throughout institutional castle culture. (A big irony many tapdance around.) Even then, Joanne was a thoughtful and thinking (and self-effacing) poet of deep innate knowing. Her early work was distinctly complex, personal, and resistant to expectations.”
So how about something like this: Joanne Kyger was a thoughtful and thinking and self-effacing poet whose distinctly complex and personal work made her a major figure in the SF Renaissance/Beat Generation orbit. That self-effacing quality is what gives poems such as “Town Hall Reading With Beat Poets” and “Bob Marley Night Saturday Downtown” and “Fact Checking” their charm. Her poems are at once deep and learned yet casual and conversational. They are also often quite funny. She comes across as a poet who took her poetry seriously while not overly-concerned with being taken seriously herself.
There is more to her poetry than self-deprecating humor, of course. A great sense of reverence is on display throughout her work when engaging with mythological themes, her Zen Buddhist studies, interactions with the natural world, and considerations of the lives and deaths of friends. From the poems in her first book, The Tapestry and the Web, published in 1965, to the late work collected in On Time, Kyger’s writing displays a marvelous way of finding the mythic in the mundane and revealing the mundane in the mythic. Here is how “Pan as the Son of Penelope,” probably her best-known poem, begins:
Refresh my thoughts of Penelope again
Just HOW
solitary was her wait?
I notice Someone got to her that
barrel chested he-goat prancing
around w/ his reed pipes
is no fantasy of small talk.
More the result of BIG talk
and the absence of her husband.
In his thought-provoking essay, “The Great(ness) Game,” David Orr discusses how Elizabeth Bishop’s stature has risen posthumously while her friend Robert Lowell’s once-towering reputation has been in decline. It would not surprise me to find Joanne Kyger’s stature ratcheted upward by a similar recalibration of reputations in years to come while those of some of her better-known male peers and predecessors in the SF Renaissance/Beat pantheon are demoted. As a stunningly lovely, yet delicate, voice like Billie Holiday’s or Karen Dalton’s would be difficult to hear when a big booming voice like Pavarotti’s was bellowing nearby, so, too, a subtle poetic sensibility, like Joanne Kyger’s, can get drowned out when there’s a big personality like her friend Ginsberg Howling nearby. Not to mention Duncan and Spicer and Snyder and Whalen and McClure and Berrigan and others. She moved in serious circles.
But life is life and death is death. Reading the books of dead poets after their time has passed and their legends have cooled is a different thing than reading the living. Sometimes the poet of the moment isn’t a poet for the ages. Tastes change and change again. Who knows what the literary landscape of the late Twentieth and early Twenty-first Centuries will look like to readers a hundred years hence. In his essay, Orr quotes a passage from J. D. McClatchy wondering about how Bishop could be claimed as the favorite predecessor poet of contemporary poets as varied as John Ashbery, James Merrill and Mark Strand. Orr takes a stab at an answer: “It’s possible, one might answer, because Bishop was a great poet, if we take ‘great’ to mean something like ‘demonstrating the qualities that make poetry seem interesting and worthwhile to such a degree that subsequent practitioners of the art form have found her work a more useful resource than the work of most if not all of her peers.’” I predict that Kyger’s work will be similarly deemed a useful resource by poets to come.
The Times obituary includes Kyger’s poem “Night Palace” but, for some reason, they did not format the poem, which was composed in projective breath units and spaced on the page in the composition by field manner, as written. That’s a shame. The spacing, in large part, makes the poem the poem it is. It’s not unusual to come across poems laid out in the composition by field manner for which reformatting them with a standard left margin justification doesn’t detract much from the poem. Sometimes it’s little more than ornament. This is not the case with “Night Palace,” a fine example of how much emotional information can be conveyed by spacing and placement on the page in the hands of someone who fully understands the approach.
Her poem “Elegant Simplicity” written May 22, 2007 ends:
Demons are more or less human in appearance
Monsters are more animal like
The first soul or spirit
that resides in a person is immortal
The second soul is the animal spirit
you acquire at birth
with a real counterpart
animal spirit
roving around in the world.
If it dies, you die
That’s it.
Joanne Kyger’s real counterpart animal spirit died in March of this year, so that was it, but her poetry will live on and, I suspect, gain greater prominence in the years to come.

Trading Human Health For Profit
Through time we have settled quite comfortably on Earth and taken its resources for our own use and necessity. For some people, now and in the future, this is not even an option. Why? Because corporations and institutions like governments prefer to have a good economic standing for themselves rather than take care of human health. Minorities have always been discriminated against in every aspect, and one devastating way this takes place is through environmental racism. A few of the ways African American and Hispanic communities have been affected are through: lead poisoning in children, air pollution, contaminated fish consumption, location of municipal landfills and incinerators, and toxic waste dumps (11). These minority communities are disproportionately affected by these factors and are victims of redlining and gentrification. Large companies purposefully build dangerous sites near these communities as if their health was inferior in some way. In the areas with the most polluted air in the United States 71% are African American, 50% Latino, and 34% White (7). This is not incidental. In the late 20th century legislation to fight environmental racism came into action, but it has not been enough since minorities are still the most affected by these hazardous situations. Large corporations take advantage of their political and economical vulnerability and limit their mobility, reduce neighbourhood options, diminish job opportunities, and decrease choices for millions of Americans (7). This is a clear example of the system “trading human health for profit” (6). This calls for environmental justice for people now and in the foreseeable future.
Environmental justice ranges from the past, present, and future generations. This “set of obligations the members of one generation may owe to people of other generations” is called intergenerational justice (518). Prioritizing profit over human health comes into play here once again. The current capitalist society exhausts earth’s resources for immediate consumption and commodity, but does not envision how this might affect future generations and their accessibility to such resources. As research has shown, they will not have the same opportunities and lifestyle as the one we know today because of this. Philosophers have debated if people that do not yet exist are even worth defending. Other skeptics have argued if ecosystems and species even have rights since they do not possess conscious interests (520). In the reading an example that does a good explaining why intergenerational justice and environmental justice is logical and essential is that one does not push a boulder down a mountain because of the potential people that might be below. Even though these people might not be there or do not exist currently, it is logical that one does not do this because of the risk of hurting someone (521). This example ties together intergenerational justice and why it does make sense. Andrew Dobson proposes a way to encourage and persuade people into treating the environment right with his idea of “ecological citizenship.” This term emphasizes that this is a global matter that transcends national borders (324). His proposal focuses on asymmetrical globalization. This means the disproportionate damage ‘developed’ countries have made to the environment (325). It is important to prioritize the wellbeing of the environment over profit as a whole since we are all interconnected.
So how should we treat the land? Through established land ethic. Land ethic is resources’ right to continued existence in a natural state (204). There has to be “love, respect, and admiration for the land” in order for this to actually happen (223). To create this sense of appreciation towards the land, ecosystems, and species, natural deficit has to stop (Louv). Exposure to nature has numerous natural benefits for human health, so to see profit as superior brings even more detrimental effects. There have been studies in landscape planning and recovery tracking that point to psychological, emotional, and health benefits to humans. Patients in hospitals with windows that face nature have had less needs for medication and faster recoveries than those who are facing brick walls (110). According to Edward O. Wilson this comes from an “innately emotional affiliation of human beings to other living organisms,” or biophilia (109). Coming from our past as hunter-gatherers and our usual contact with nature, it has proven to be beneficial to human health.
All of these issues pose a threat to human health at any point in time. Urbanization, business as usual, and the capitalist system threatens, not only nature in itself, but human health. This anthropocentric view is a powerful view as many tend to react more intensely when our future is compromised. It brings out the need and emphasis of intergenerational environmental justice. Only because these humans do not exist yet it does not mean we should not fight for their quality of life. There are many ways to start change, and more importantly, cultural change. David Orr writes a powerful article about what education should be for. He describes six myths that have made us ignorant and arrogant to things we have yet to learn. The way education is formatted has limited the knowledge we are able to achieve if we keep working for it. Orr mentions how successful people are no longer needed, but instead it “needs people of moral courage willing to join the fight to make the world habitable and humane” (Orr). I agree with him that this is the most effective way to spread the message and create cultural change for a better future. We need to understand that we never stop learning and use what we learn for the benefit of everyone.
Question: Does Aldo Leopold’s mention of women as property, albeit referring to past perspectives, diminish his credibility and appeal? Was it a good idea to mention this in his piece?

Indianapolis family loses second 16-year-old to gun violence
INDIANAPOLIS — When Carla Amos received a phone call on August 23 announcing that her nephew, Ameir Ford, was killed at the Washington Pointe Apartments in a drive-by shooting, it stirred up memories of the death of her own brother, the uncle Ameir would never know, 27 years ago. “It’s Stevie again. It’s Stevie again,” Carla remembers thinking. “Shouldn’t no parent have to go through what I seen my momma and daddy go through, what I seen my sister go through of losing a child to gun violence.” Read more here
Sadly, a family loses a second 16 year old due to gun violence in Indianapolis. Carla Amos got a phone call on the 23rd of August, announcing that her nephew, Ameir Ford, was killed at Washington Pointe Apartments because of the shooting. It stirred up a memory of the death of her brother 27 years ago. It’s so devastating to know a person who’s a family, a good kid, a happy joker, a handyman, a helper to mom, brothers, and sisters. The worst thing is that they know little about the murder that happened. What happened to Ford was very sad, and family members are left grieving for his death. While a family member has rested in peace, there’s no peace for the family left on earth, and it’s the saddest part. I hope shooting would stop, and the laws on bringing guns should be more regulated.
Indiana State Museum in Indianapolis, IN
The Indiana State Museum in Indianapolis, IN, is an excellent place to learn the history of Indiana from the age of mastodons and mammoths to the 21st century of science, arts, and culture. Families can enjoy the hands-on experience at the Naturalist’s Lab and learn stories in the cultural galleries. The Indiana State Museum is great for folks of all ages. The staff is available to assist the visitors, and they are all very friendly. This museum is fantastic, very educational, and super clean. When I went to the museum with my husband, we found over 500 000 artifacts covering the world's history, Americans, cultural history, and Indiana’s future. The museum is eclectic and an exciting adventure of the past, present, and future. I like that this museum offers a place to enjoy, celebrate, learn, investigate, remember, and take pride in Indiana's story in a global society.

He complemented that line
After three years of working at the Hobby House, Thomas joined the army. By volunteering instead of waiting for the draft for the Korean War, Thomas was able to choose his assignment.

The double shooting took place in July 2012, almost a year before Lloyd was killed.

“‘A Poor Excuse’,” Toronto Star. May 12, 1941. Page 2.
----
B Police Court, at the City Hall, Magistrate Browne
Pleading guilty to two charges of theft, F. Steele was remanded to May 20 for sentence. ‘He was caretaker of an apartment and failed to turn in money collected as rent,’ said Detective-Sergeant Koster.
‘I can only blame it on liquor,’ said Steele.
‘A poor excuse,’ said the bench.
Robert Birch pleaded guilty to two charges of obtaining $28 from two citizens by fraud.
Crown Attorney Malone read a lengthy record which included two five-year terms in U.S. prisons. ‘He is just a scoundrel, trading on unsuspecting persons,’ asserted the crown.
‘I am a married man with five children,’ said Birch.
‘You have not been much use to them for some years,’ replied the crown.
Judge O’Connell imposed six months on each charge to run concurrently.
Rev. Eric de Pendleton said Birch approached him early in April and told him a story. ‘I gave him $5. Later he said he had a job out of town and I gave him $10. He came back again with a cheque for $14 which I cashed for him. He said he would pay me the $15 I lent him at a later date. The cheque was no good,’ the pastor related.
As to the second charge, Det.-Sergt. Mosier said Birch met a young man and promised him a good job out of town. ‘Accused told him he needed $14 for union dues and got the money. The young man gave up another position and is now out of work.’ the officer testified.
William Smith and Edward Buckle, soldiers, up for sentence on a charge of taking a motor car without the owner’s consent, were placed on suspended sentence and probation for one year.

C Police Court, at the City Hall, Magistrate Forsyth
Arraigned on a charge of stealing a motor car, Thelma White, through her counsel, Frank Callaghan, pleaded not guilty. After a lengthy hearing, the court ruled evidence was too indefinite and marked the charge dismissed. The charge arose out of an automobile deal involving a finance company and others.

D Police Court, at the City Hall, Magistrate Prentice
William Orr pleaded guilty of careless driving, driving without a permit, and having liquor in his car. He was fined $23 and costs or 10 days on the first count, $10 or 10 days each on the others. He took the jail penalty and will serve 10 days.
P. C. Dyett said accused hit the rear of an auto waiting for a street car to unload passengers. The other car was shoved forward into the rear of the tram. ‘Accused had been drinking and was unsteady on his feet,’ the officer stated.
Frank Godzwan was fined $20 and costs or 20 days when he was convicted of permitting drunkenness. A joint charge against John Maryvalch was withdrawn.
Three of 20 people in accused’s home were drunk, stated P.C. James Henderson as Jessie Brooker pleaded guilty of permitting drunkenness. He was fined $50 or 30 days and his house on D’Arcy St. declared a public place.
