The author of this article typed "My students are" into Google. Read what happened and the author's remedy.
To start off, I would like to mention I have been in the teaching field for quite some time now (to be exact, 22 years) I teach spanish (freshman through senior year) and there's a particular female student in my senior class who I feel has a crush on me. Now, I had students crush on me throughout the school years, but as I age, I have to admit it ...See MoreTo start off, I would like to mention I have been in the teaching field for quite some time now (to be exact, 22 years) I teach spanish (freshman through senior year) and there's a particular female student in my senior class who I feel has a crush on me. Now, I had students crush on me throughout the school years, but as I age, I have to admit it is very flattering especially if the girls are attractive. Unfortunately, it is inappropriate and extremely distracting to see an attractive girl batting her eyelashes at me and smiling when lecturing a class. Her attempts to get a response from me are very subtle, so I am not sure how I am going to handle this. She talks with witty sarcasm throughout the entire lecture (usually trying to tease me) e.g I put on a movie with spanish subtitles and I paused it when a female character was interacting with a male and asked what she was saying. So she tries to interpret and goes, "I ...am.... ready... for ...you" and looks at me....while the whole class bursts into laughter. Another e.g. I ask the class how many macho men there are in the room and her reply was, "just one.....YOU"...I went beet red. I have to admit i'm guilty of making up pet names and teasing her myself. (I have no inappropriate intentions whatsoever) I feel a little infatuated with her but she is making this twice as difficult. Any words of advice? how should I go about talking to her about this? When I tell her (in front of the class) "stop making fun of the old man" she says, "old man? you don't look a day over 35" with that sly smile of hers.
Just to get a clear picture.... when I tease her I usually say, "where's husband number 8" and "you'll marry a rich old man, then bury him and put the money in the bank' or if a bunch of spanish words are written on the chalkboard, i point on bella and ask here to spell it out for me. I don't consider that out of line. I am clearly just being friendly (she is 18)

A 'footprint' is a good metaphor for our individual impact on the social or natural environment.

Ode to a Simple Louisiana Army National Guardsman
He was gettin’ old and paunchy, And his hair was fallin’ fast; And he sat aroun’ the Legion Tellin’ stories the past.
Of a war that he had fought in And of deeds that he had done; In his exploits with his buddies, They were heroes every one.
And ‘though someti...See MoreOde to a Simple Louisiana Army National Guardsman
He was gettin’ old and paunchy, And his hair was fallin’ fast; And he sat aroun’ the Legion Tellin’ stories the past.
Of a war that he had fought in And of deeds that he had done; In his exploits with his buddies, They were heroes every one.
And ‘though sometimes to his neighbors His tales became a joke; All his buddies listened closely, For the knew whereof he spoke.
But we’ll hear his tales no longer, For ole’ Carl has passed away; And the world’s a little poorer, For a Louisiana National Guardsman died today.
He won’t be mourned by many, Just his children and his wife; For he lived a very ordinary Quite and simple kind of life.
He held a job and reared a family, Quitely goin’ on his way; And the world won’t note his passin’, ‘Though a Louisiana National Guardsman died today.
Just an ordinary soldier, One who offered up his all; Was paid off with just some medals And perhaps a pension small.
It’s so easy to forget him, For t’was so long ago He enlisted in the Louisiana Army National Guard And off to battle he did go.
Yes, he was just a common Louisiana National Guardsman From the ranks a-growin’ thin; But his passin’ should remind us We may need his type again.
Since we did not do him honor, While he was here at home to praise, Then at least let’s give him homage At the endin’ of his days.
Perhaps just a little headline In the paper that might say: OUR COUNTRY IS A-MOURNIN’ FOR A LOUISIANA NATIONAL GUARDSMAN DIED TODAY!
[In memory of Sgt. Carl Leckband, who served in the Viet Nam War and who for years suffered from Post Traumatic Stress Disorder following his combat experiences; and also posted in honor of the past and present Members of the Louisiana National Guard, including General Leonard Pauley, Col.

Say It in Latin!
by Hardy Parkerson
The Roman Law with us doth still abound And as your Tulane knowledge you expound, NON SIBI SED SUIS to Judges you can tell; And ‘though some Judge may tell you go to Yale, What’er you say in Latin sounds profound.
