How teachers are pushing our children towards into indoctrination with the extreme liberal politics today.

Today a majority of teachers are devout Communists that are trained by the government who is only interested in indoctrination rather than education. A majority of teachers are devout Communists who are only interested in indoctrination and the paychecks rather than education.  It seems that technology is replacing common sense and teaching for one thing. That one thing is indoctrination. Public school teachers and private school teachers  are indoctrinating our children by "their education standards". The educational system has removed common sense and good judgement from everyday life. People have lost all common sense. Not good.
The teachers of the educational system have instilled such fear into the people to the point where now most of us live in a constant state of fear and paranoia due to extreme indoctrination caused by the teachers and government.

It's really very shameful!! American people, wake up and retake our country! Take the United States back!

Touhou video game series still popular.

Touhou is an online video game created by ZUN from Japan/China created/released in 2005 and is still very popular today in 2016. Touhou is a video game based off of Japanese mythology and folklore. Not to mention mystery as well. Since its inception in 2005, the Touhou video game franchise has spun off a series various video games of the Touhou name over the years.

Touhou's community problem-solving model leads Touhou to be a successful multi-player online game even though it's mostly a one player game since its inception. It's the need for the community to band together to solve a problem. Not only is the gameplay complicated but you would need more than 3 players to beat this online web browser video game alone. Touhou is based off of teamwork efforts when it comes to the gameplay portion of this video game. The Touhou video game alone solely relies on the gameplay mechanisms and strategic play. Strategic play is the most important term to understand in video games such as this one. It's really the gameplay mechanisms that draw players to play this strategic video game called Touhou.

Touhou has risen on the wave of fandom. The Touhou video game series has an extremely large underground following similar to Strikes Witches and Street Fighter fandom once upon a time. The game developers for Touhou have followed the Pokémon model along with Street Fighter. Touhou is kept up opened enough for fans to fill in a void with their fanart and incredibly crazy metaphoric stories. That is where the snowball effect comes into place. But then again given the theme with the OVERABUNDANCE of uniforms in such fashion, one is not going to be surprised.

Touhou has a huge cast of characters that playable to choose from during gameplay. Notable characters of the Touhou video game franchise are Fujiwara no Mokou, Patchouli Knowledge, Sanae, Keine Sensei, and Yuugi among others. The Touhou video game has a selective wide-range array of characters with lovable traits, perks, quirks, and personality that are truly unique. The weirdness gets very disturbing.

To sum it all up, Touhou is a social game that is known as an online video game with a mystery folklore vibe. The developers seem to want to fuse their fetish for cute girls in quirky uniforms.

Kantai Collection is a fictional military action genre-based web browser game created by Kadokawa Games. The Kantai Collection game is available in Japan only. Kantai Collection is one of those military action genre video games that are currently the rising trend in the Japanese technology makes in regard to video games. All you otaku fans and weeaboo teitoku's out there will love this video game!

Not only is the gameplay complicated but you would need more than 2 players to beat this online web browser video game alone.

The way the Kantai Collection video game is setup is very similar for to Strike Witches video games with military strategic play. This game along solely relies on the gameplay mechanisms and strategic play. Strategic play is the most important term to understand in video games such as this one. It also helps in real life too. You feel being a part of it whenever reach some achievement from it certain at some point. It's really the gameplay mechanisms that draw players to play this strategic military action video game. That's what makes Kantai Collection unique among other browser games. Kadokawa Games had set up Kantai Collection similar to the facebook video game system monetary model.

Kantai Collection has risen on the wave of fandom. The Kantai Collection series has an extremely large underground following similar to The Grateful Dead fandom once upon a time. The game developers at Kadokawa Games have followed the Touhou model where it is kept up opened enough for fans to fill in a void with their fanart and incredibly crazy metaphoric stories. That is where the snowball effect comes into place. The fanservice and pantyshots are commendable. But then again given the theme with the OVERABUNDANCE of serafuku. I'm not going to be surprised.
Kantai Collection has a huge cast of characters that playable to choose from during gameplay.
The Kantai Collection video game has a selective wide-range array of characters with lovable traits and personality that are truly unique. There are even oppai loli in some cases in the video game and anime.

The video game Kantai Collection teaches us about history and culture of Japan. That's what the importance of Kantai Collection is. The Japanese take huge considerable amount of pride in their nations history. The Japanese have a huge amount of pride in their country as well. Despite the dark negative side of Japanese history, the citizens of Japan are very receptive to this video game. Many historic references are made in this video game.

As history tells us in textbooks, Japan was badly damaged during both World War 1 and World War 2 by the US Navy. The Americans weren't as fixated on decisive battle as the Japanese were with their military doctrine until 1937. That's when the United States had gotten involved. The Japanese and Americans had died on that small island from many bombshell blasts, nuclear explosions, and bombs planted in by the US Navy. Japan drove into resource starvation. The place has been fixed up since 1945. The regrowth of Japan was just starting in 1946.

The Kantai Collection video game has numerous references to US Allied units including the IJN naming conventions, such as Avenger, Helldiver, and Hellcat aircraft and katakana ship class naming, and the calibers/technical specifications of The weapons being used are 5", 8", 16" guns, and 21" torpedoes. However these types include some IJN hybrid aviation battleships. These weapons were heavier and more advanced than the Americans expected from the Japanese in 1941. The US Navy deployed their Iowa class ships quite often though. Technology was still new in Japan. The "Big Ship, Big Guns" concept was the battleship-centric strategy.


To sum it all up, Kantai Collection is a social game that is known as a strategic military action video game. This video game came at the right place at the right time. So we have had Strike Witches, Uppote, Girls und Panzer, and now this. Kadokawa Games developers seem to want to fuse mecha military hardware with their fetish for cute girls in sailor fuku school uniforms. Think of Kantai Collection as a knockoff of Strike Witches and Girls und Panzer mixed within together.
I hope you all comprehend and understand.

What really happened to the Austin State School - Farm Colony.

Austin State School - Farm Colony (better known as the Travis State School) was a living center that was operated as a farm colony, work facility, and educational facility for the mentally retarded citizens of Texas operating from 1933 to 1996 for which in part was totally operated by Texas Mental Health Mental Retardation (TX MHMR & Texas Board of Control) via Texas Government. The institution taught the mentally retarded how to be self-sufficient. Travis State School itself was located at FM 969 and Decker Lane 8 miles east of Downtown Austin located near the Colorado River.

A Texas State Legislature meeting was held for a decision on what to rename the Austin State School. It was due to reforms in healthcare along with mental health that the name of this institution was changed. To reflect this change, Austin State School - Farm Colony was renamed to Travis State School in January 1961. The farming operations did not cease due to mental health care reforms in the 1960's due to popular belief as many believed.

Farming operations at the facility slowly ceased in January 1961 due to the fact that the farm colony was a total failure. The farm colony could not produce enough to maintain for the patients at the institutions. Farming operations ceased due to lack of attention and criminal negligence. Despite that, the farming colony operated until 1974.

The reasons why Austin State School - Farm Colony ceased operations was due to revisions in the Fair Labor Standards Act of 1974 and the oil recession of the 1970s that greatly effected the United States economy.

Texas Government discovered the free labor residents and inmates provided was considered somewhat exploitive especially for the high functioning residents. High functioning residents were assigned to take care of low functioning residents. The State of Texas could not afford to pay residents and inmates as workers. So residents and inmates worked for free This in turn was a violation of the Fair Labor Standards Act of 1974.

The courts ruled in 1974 residents and inmates in these institutions run by the State of Texas (federal, state-run, or otherwise) were entitled to protections under the Fair Labor Standards Act. This was a tragedy for some of the residents and inmates residing in these institutions. They had no sense of purpose and had idle time sitting on the ward. Despite that, state run programs were still readily available.

Recent revival of codpieces surfaces.

In the 2010s era, it seems that the codpiece has made a revival in the United States and in countries across Europe. The codpiece has made a return in counter-culture clothing fashion. Especially in Gothic culture. I have seen a recent news stories on the revival of the codpiece from BBC magazine and other newspapers so far. This is not the first time there has been a revival in codpieces! Black Panther Eldridge Cleaver had once attempted to revive codpieces back in the mid-1970s.

Codpieces have made revivals in places such as Medieval Renaissance fairs, Hot Topic, Fascinations, AnimeExpo, ComicCon, AnimeCon, retail stores, and other market festivals that are known to be out there as well. Historian nerds and the otaku have been idolizing this codpiece underground for quite some time now.

Historical clothing called the codpiece was first created and introduced to the continent of Europe in the country island of Crete somewhere in the 1400s.
The codpiece was worn by men who were kings that belonged to royalty such as King Henry VIII. At first the codpiece was only available to royalty in the 1500s. Men wore these tights to cover their legs. Now the tights men wore were nothing like the pantyhose women wear today. Apparently the tights covered the les but not the genitals. So in order to cover their manhood, men began to wear a codpiece.
Right now, codpieces are being sold in specialty clothing stores. So the codpiece is not extremely extinct.

Income inequality in the United States of America revealed.

United States of America is the known chosen land of the free. All you need is common sense to realize that you are not truly free as an American citizen. It helps to have some money.
Many American citizens are underpaid and overworked. So many American citizens consider their pay to be low in terms of income. That's just the reality though. The perspective of an average American citizen who is considered a modern day slave by society. In the eyes of many American citizens, income equality is income inequality. The average American citizen is a modern day slave. Only those who are rich will succeed. Those who are poor are deemed as failures. Those are the norms in such ideology imposed by American culture and society. Politics and culture play huge roles inside income inequality and income equality in the United States of America.

How the Inuit Native American Indian tribe were productive in their textile culture.

The Inuit and Inuvialuit in Canada and coastal Alaska were noticeably recognized as productive people. The Inuit and Inuvialuit in Canada and coastal Alaska were noticeably recognized as the first documented ethnic people to make tailored garments and tailored clothing too at that. Each Inuit region had developed their own styles and tribes people could tell where someone was from by looking at their clothing. In Inuit ancient times, Inuit clothing was used to protect tribes members from weather and from spirits. To this day, Inuit clothing and textile is still popular in Canada and coastal Alaska today.

What conditions a potato is best for consumption.

It all depends on the condition of the potato. When a potato is covered by dirt and with blemishes, it's sometimes usually not safe to eat. The potato skin can get in the way of eating when it comes flavor of food. Never eat dirty potato skins as there could be hidden bacteria on potato skin as well as the potato itself. Eating a dirty potato could cause a symptom of having diarrhea or other illness. When a potato is covered by dirt and with blemishes, it's best to peel the potato so appearance isn't all messed up. Small potatoes have thin skin and don't need peeling. Of course this depends on the condition of the potato. Some people will say and think, "Why even peel a potato? Just wash it, chop it, and be done! Just wash it and chop it."

Biography of Vernon Leroy Smith.

Vernon Leroy Smith was born at the King's Daughters Hospital in Temple, Texas, US to William Thurman Smith and Lillie Earl Davis Smith on the date of June 3, 1946. His family had a military background from which his father, William Thurman Smith, had come from. He was the baby of his family with 5 older brothers and 1 sister into a family of 8 people.

When Vernon was a year old, his parents discovered something was psychologically wrong with him. He wasn’t acting the ways as most children did. His behavior started becoming strangely erratic to unusual. They took Vernon to a neurologist. The neurologist told his parents that Vernon had down syndrome often referred to back then as mental retardation. He was later diagnosed with mental retardation at 2 years old.

Vernon Leroy Smith was known a special needs child with mental retardation whom had requiring special schooling and care to those in the community who knew him very well. Of course as Vernon grew older and larger, his family became unable to care for him and had no choice but to put him into a state-run mental health institution. The best place they could find for him was Travis State School located east of Austin, Texas. Vernon resided there at Travis State School for 4 short years from 1960 to 1964 until his time of death.

Vernon was always wanting to come home to his family as he felt his family abandoned him when they enrolled him at Travis State School. He felt unloved, unwanted, and out of place when he lived at Travis State School. Despite Travis State School having the best trained staff who were well caring, he had still felt out of place. His family made many trips visiting him at Travis State School when he was a resident there.  His first attempt to run away from Travis State School was in 1961. He was later recaptured and lived out the remainder of his life at the Austin State School - Farm Colony then later known as Travis State School. This however, would not be the only attempt that Vernon would try to escape from the institution. He attempted to escape the institution over 4 times.

In October 1964, Vernon ran away for good. Vernon had gotten himself into a meltdown about wanting to go home and be with his family. So he ran away from the school in an effort to go home Several days later, His body was found in the Colorado River from accidental drowning. He had water in lungs which he could not breathe from the asphyxiation from that. Vernon Leroy Smith had died in October 9, 1964.

This biography is a sad case about how those with mental retardation were kept hidden away by society and how families disregarded their feelings about their self-esteem. This is another case of how society has placed a stigma on mental retardation. Vernon Leroy Smith is no exception however.

Biography of Ida Oren Davenport.

Ida Oren Davenport was born in Wise County, Texas on the date of April 3, 1883. Ida Oren Davenport was the daughter of Thomas W. Davenport and Sarah S. Lispy. She was apparently born blind, but the family did not find out until later. They knew something was wrong with Ida. It was recommended by a doctor that Ida be institutionalized which was common at that time. Despite blindness being misdiagnosed mental illness. Ida was not mentally ill. She was just misdiagnosed. Ida's disability was being blind from birth. Her family sent her to live at Austin State School until 1938 when she died. She spent a remainder of her life at Austin State School.

Ida died in Austin, Texas on the date of November 7, 1938. She died of chronic laryngitis. Her death was very untimely. Her syphilis was another important illness that contributed to her death. At that time, there was no cure for syphilis whatsoever.

Ida Oren Davenport is a prime example case of misdiagnosed mental illness. Similar to Bernard Carabello.

MMA training in boxing.

MMA training is all about training to boxing. MMA training is about how to discipline your body and to focus your energy and mind in a positive place with full force training. To learn how to focus and discipline the body is the most important thing in MMA training. Focus on the opponent as you train your body during practice. Focus onto your punching hooks as you practice your jabs at your opponent. MMA training is a good way to start on boxing.

How building code laws effect musicians in Austin, Texas.

Due to recent noise ordinances building code laws being passed by Austin City Hall in the 2010s, it is hard for musicians and artists to perform live in downtown clubs on 6th Street. This hurts local businesses and musicians. Music cannot be played at the noise level louder than 60 dB as local noise ordinance permits. 70 dB on weekends as local noise ordinance permits. Sound ordinances are an issue that local Austin musicians face due to the high rise buildings and noise complaints from tenants living the new high rise condos. These big buildings in downtown Austin are now corporate buildings and condos. This doesn't hurt Austin somehow apparently.

The upsides of being a musician in Austin are gaining recognition, getting the exposure, and of course making money. The downsides of being a musician in Austin are dealing with noise ordinances, complaints from tenants living the new high rise condo buildings, and city council.

Hillcrest Farms history not forgotten.

Hillcrest Farms is a name many Austinites have forgotten. The name “Hillcrest Farms” does not ring a bell to the current Austinites of today. Only a handful of few longtime Austinites are aware of the name Hillcrest Farms. Hillcrest Farms is a name many longtime Austinites have forgotten. Inevitably Hillcrest Farms is one of Austin’s long forgotten institutions that has faded away with time. The Hillcrest Farms motto was “Stay where you are, we’ll bring it to you.”


In 1937, Harry L. Peterson started Hillcrest Farms in Del Valle, Texas less than a mile from the now Austin Bergstrom International Airport (ABIA). Hillcrest Farms Inc. started with just Harry L. Peterson and two employees in 1937. Hillcrest Farms had only one truck to work from and 22 cows and work with. Harry L. Peterson was the first milk producer to sell pasteurized milk instead of raw milk in the Austin, Texas area and in Travis County. 50 quarts of milk a day were produced by cows from the Hillcrest Farms in their early days of operation. In the early years, milk was poured into quart sized glass bottles for home delivery.

From a business standpoint, Hillcrest Farms originally intended to be a home delivery business in the beginning. Harry L. Peterson intended for Hillcrest Farms to be a home delivery business being that he already owned land set up in an agricultural setting in Del Valle, Texas. Hillcrest Farms was all home delivery.

Harry L. Peterson and Fred Barge became business partners in 1955. On June 1, 1956, Harry L. Peterson incoporated Hillcrest Farms as an agricultural business called Hillcrest Farms Inc. Hillcrest Farms was the
first dairy operation in Texas to equip a truck with a “milk tank” instead of cans. From then on, all Hillcrest Farms milk processors were to equip a truck with a “milk tank” instead of cans. 1969 was a peak year for Hillcrest Farms as that was the year more than 14,000 customers were served.

In 1970, Harry L. Peterson sold Hillcrest Farms to Jim Dobson and Brodie Keene. Tay Bond pledged $27,000.00 commission to Harry Peterson to be earned on the sale of property known as Hillcrest Farms to purchasers Brodie Keene and Jim Dobson in 1970. In 1970, Hillcrest Farms was also sold to Pure Milk.

In 1984, Jim Dobson and Brodie Keene sold a portion of their land to Del Valle ISD to build a school for which Hillcrest Farms would be named after for donating land. Hillcrest Farms was one of the last dairies in town to abandon real cream.

A small portion of Austin landmarks were named in honor of Hillcrest Farms. A Del Valle ISD school and road were named after the Hillcrest Farms both by the City of Austin and Del Valle. Such as Hillcrest Elementary School and Hillcrest Farms Road for example in this case.

In 2008, the City of Austin purchased several acres of land which was formerly owned by Hillcrest Farms to build a parking garage for Austin Bergstrom International Airport (ABIA) which is currently operated by FastPark & Relax. This parking garage was built to meet the demand of additional parking for ABIA. By 2012, several more acres of land were purchased from the former Hillcrest Farms.

As an agreement with the City of Austin, US Government, Austin Bergstrom International Airport, Travis County, and Texas General Land Office (GLO), associated parties came to terms resulting in an agreement allowing former part of the dairy land to remain undeveloped in as attempt of historic preservation. As a part of this attempt for historic preservation enacted by the City Of Austin, tourists entering and exiting ABIA can get a feel of agricultural lifestyle from 20th century Del Valle in Travis County. By remaining undeveloped, the dairy land will continue to operate in its natural habitat which is why you see longhorns cattle as you exit ABIA.


A small portion of Austin landmarks were named in honor of Hillcrest Farms. A Del Valle ISD school and road were named after the Hillcrest Farms both by Del Valle, Travis County, and City of Austin. The Hillcrest name is spread over Southeast Austin and Southeast Travis County.

• For instance, take Hillcrest Farms Road for example.

In 1975, Hillcrest Farms got a road named after the dairy called Hillcrest Farms Road also known as  Hillcrest Farms Rd. To the left of the road is additional parking for ABIA operated by FastPark & Relax. To the right is natural farmland with a herd of cattle. In 2012, Hillcrest Farms Road was renamed to Spirit of Texas Drive.

• For instance, take Hillcrest Elementary School as another example.

Hillcrest Elementary School (fka Hillcrest School) was named after the Hillcrest Farms. Hillcrest Elementary School was located on land Hillcrest Farms owned which is why the school has the name “Hillcrest”. In 1984, Hillcrest Farms sold land to Del Valle ISD to build a school. In 1985, after a bond program enacted by Del Valle ISD, Del Valle residents voted for the school district to build a new elementary school. 1985 was the year Hillcrest Elementary School opened.

The Hillcrest School sat in its original location from 1985 to 1998 on Crozier Lane right next to Baty Elementary School (fka Baty School). Hillcrest Elementary School was relocated to William Cannon Road in Southeast Austin in 1998 due to the City Of Austin’s Airport Noise Mitigation Program which was responsible for relocating 6 Del Valle ISD schools in order for the ABIA Airport to be built and to operate. In 1999 the school was demolished. Hillcrest Elementary School is owned and operated by Del Valle ISD.


The Hillcrest Farms were located at 736 Bastrop Highway, Del Valle, Texas, US 78617 now known as 2200 Spirit of Texas Drive, Del Valle, Texas, US 78617.

*[736 Bastrop Highway is now Spirit of Texas Drive.]
*[Hillcrest Elementary School and Baty Elementary School have been since relocated to another location due to the City Of Austin’s Airport Noise Mitigation Program.]
