John Baptist de La Salle

Saint John Baptist de La Salle is the founder of the Institute of the Brothers of the Christian Schools, Patron of Christian Teachers. He had the first idea that all people should have access to education. Even though John the Baptist de La Salle had some bitter relationships with some members of the Church and even some bishops, he still continues to do his dream that all children will be given education. His style of education is featured instruction in the vernacular, students grouped according to ability and achievement, integration of religious instruction with secular subjects, well-prepared teachers with a sense of vocation and mission, and the involvement of parents.

INTRIST

I expect that INTRIST will be fun and interesting because my past subjects are not even though they are the major courses in BS-CS.

Revenge of the Sith

George Lucas has once again released his masterpiece "Revenge of the Sith" as part of the Star Wars movies last May 19, 2005. The movie is in the third part of the Star Wars story however, it was the last released. The story was simply the end of the Confederacy of Independent Systems or more commonly known as the Seperatists lead by Nute Gunray, the Viceroy of the Trade Federation, Count Dooku (Darth Tyranus), Count of Serenno and a Sith Lord, and General Grievous of the Droid Army, and the rise of the Empire by Chancellor Palpatine. It was also revealed that Palpatine himself is the Dark Lord of the Sith assuming the name Darth Sidious who apprenticed Darth Maul and Darth Tyranus; but soon apprenticed Anakin Skywalker to become Darth Vader. It was also the end of the Jedi when the Emperor ordered the Great Jedi Purge, or commonly known as Order 66. However, I find the movie... "bitin".
