Andy, I couldn't agree more... that "face painted dude" is one interesting fellow... I like him too.

Yes. What a great idea to stimulate the students. We use a lot of video too to motivate, it sure beats reading books! (although they have their place too of course!). Compliments of the season and look forward to networking/working with you all next year. In New Zealand the students have gone on their summer breaks and are not back until the first week in February...

In China, there is also an interesting thing they do but I'm not sure what it is called. What they do is, men wear masks similar to the make up in the opera. They sing and they suddenly turn their face back then forward again for about 2 seconds and the mask is different. They can change the mask I think 7-10 times.
