In the following years, I continued implementing my magic for educational purposes in the schools where I taught. Then I felt the need to create a practical method for motivating students in their schools, and I created Educational Magic. It made me think of other educators, and I wondered… Could magic help schoolteachers? How would the students react? What techniques and tricks should a teacher use in class, and parents at home? Then I noticed the students’ attention and motivation for learning increased. When I first started lecturing as a teacher, I would occasionally do magic tricks. Sadly, a lack of motivation for learning is nowadays very common with most children and in most schools. If they made the classes fun for us, we were more motivated and we had the desire to go to school. It was fabulous having classes with them, we had such a great time together! They knew that first they needed to capture our attention. The teachers I remember best from my childhood are the ones who made their classes more fun for me. Teaching with Magic got him nominated for the Global Teacher Prize. For example, the 1998 American Godzilla film is often referred to by fans as GINO, or “Godzilla in Name Only.Xuxo Ruiz is a teacher and magician who found that by mixing both his passions he could be more helpful to children and teachers all over the world. RINO is not the only popular use of the “in name only” acronym though. RINO also sees colorful wordplay (e.g., RINO hunter, or Republicans trying to stop the election or reelection of alleged RINOs).Ī less common Democratic party counterpart is DIABLO, or “Democrat in All But Label Only.” For whatever reason, the term DINO (“Democrat in Name Only”) has never really caught on. References to RINOs often use actual rhino images, riffing on the Republican elephant mascot. It’s also sometimes used more broadly to attack any conservative another conservative disagrees with. RINO is sometimes used of politicians considered too far-right of the mainstream Republican party, as Dole called Cruz in 2016. The charge is often issued when a Republican shows a willingness to compromise with Democrats or deviates from the party line on more hardline issues (e.g., climate change or reproductive rights). Common enough in some circles to be written like its own word ( Rino), RINO is mainly used in political speech, journalism, blogging, and social media by conservatives to criticize fellow party members, especially office holders, for not being true Republicans.
