vom_marloweI reviewed Black Butler (anime version) at the Hooded U the other day. You can read about it here.
I have strep throat. Vicious, ugly, horrible illness. But now I have a Z-pack. We loves our Z-pack, precioussss. Preciouss, precioussss Z-packs. I've been only semi-conscious the past few days, but within four hours of taking the beautiful beautiful Z-pack, I am now feeling semi-human instead. I should have crawled my way to the doctor's office days ago, but I just felt too sick.
For those who enjoy learning about learning, I thought I'd mention that I've finally found another dog trainer who explicitly uses mimic techniques to train dogs (aka imitative learning). I used mimicry to teach the Pook a number of behaviors (including fetch--primarily, I would click/treat my mom for doing the behavior), and I was amused to discover that according to Science, this was not supposed to be possible. But now another trainer has developed a specific system built around social mimicry. It looks pretty cool, and I've popped for the DVD set off Dogwise. If there's interest, I'll review the DVDs when I'm done watching them (they're over 8 hours long, so the price tag is actually quite reasonable).
