Learning.

In the article the things not to learn in school, the past years of school has taught some of the facts not to be learned. Such as you only need to get a seventy, the saying D is for diploma isn't true. You do a seventy percent at your job you will be let go. The school system is flawed in that aspect as it will let you slide by with just doing seventy percent of the work. In any other place it will get you flunked or fired. I can do better in school its just actually doing the work. my schedule is go to school then to work then home and then sleep and repeat. So i am preoccupied with other things other than doing a good job in school. I do the work but flipping through the pages looking for every answer is not possible time wise. I need my "me" time. The other lessons not to learn i didn't learn because i never noticed them. Ive said that they cant flunk all of us, but i used it as saying for something else, not school.

storytelling

The people of today are begining to really feel the meltdown of the economic situation. They are cutting back on buying things they want and just buying the things they need to get by. People are losing their homes and having to rent while going through this time in history. Our family is cutting back on everything. From water to going to place where we normally go. Times are tough, but they cant last forever. People are resiliant. A few of the things we have changed is the amount of water we use, to the trips to town to buy food. We make a trip or two into town to purchase food but other than that it is to home and work and the doctors so we dont miss work. So we have quit basicly all activities that are not nessacary. Its quite depressing, when you get done paying the things you have to have and you have very little to spend on things you want or short of need like new boots.

Piracy law cuts internet traffic

Sweden's new policy - the Local IPRED law - allows copyright holders to force Internet service providers (ISP) to reveal details of users sharing files. " The intellectual property of people can be sent and received using things such as BitTorrent sharing sites. Along with things such as music and video. Sweden's new law is designed to stop file sharing. It is the same as stealing. An xmen movie has been leaked on the Internet before the movie has been completely finished. So that's is millions in profit sales down. If the US enforces a law that is like this it will affect many people. limewire is very popular, the people who are charged with illegal file sharing will be many.

Playing again....allowed?

I think that if someone is convicted of a crime that is in professional sports. Such as Michael vice with the NFL. that they should be banned from returning to professional athleticism. If you or me commit a crime such as dog fighting on that scale we wouldn't be able to return to our original job, and we would have a hard time finding a job that will be willing to hire us.
Vick is nearing the end of his 23 month sentence in prison on dog fighting charges. after that he will move to home confinement by may then by July 20 he will be able to join the NFL again. Though it is unknown weather or not Rodger Goodell will allow his return to the NFL.

The possible return of Vick to the professional world is bound to raze some protest from PETA and other animal rights activist groups, along with some unhappy fans.
The players of the profesinal world are role models to kids, vick has set a bad example to kids. The fact that they are somewhat famous makes somepeople think that they can get away with almost anything. They cant.

PETA is looking for more that an apology from Michael Vick; the organization wants him to submit to a brain scan to see if he has psychopathic tendencies. If Vick denies the test he may not be allowed to join the Leauge again.
The one thing that Vick might find true is that the anmails he treated so badly are the most willing to accept him.

Education and Assimilation

I think that what they did through the 1980s, the schools generally pulled immigrates out of the mainstream classes for at least an hour or two each day for “English as a Second Language” courses that were largely focused on basic English and vocational training would help a lot. The high school American student knows more about America than a immigrate knows, the American student has had a jump start of common sense that the immigrate hasn't had. which turns out to be around 15 years of knowledge. The classes that students take, such as history, will ask questions such as what did the Bolshevik revolution cause in the US? The red scare. The American student knows more about foreign history than a immigrant knows about American history. Which they are a part of.

I think that one thing we can do to help an immigrant assimilate is to give him time to adjust to English classes. Such as have him that a remedial English course such as a lower grade than the high school level. once he becomes familiar with English in that level start advancing him until he has a basic idea of whats going on and then start moving him to the high school level. Another thing we could do is have a set time for them to get out of the mainstream of high school and take a class they are comfortable with to help them grow and feel more comfortable in high school.

one of the things i think that's holding people back from assimilating is that people are somewhat raciest, when asked why the immigrates didnt have friends with the mainstream high schoolers they say "people who cursed at them while they were working at McDonald’s, or an employer who cheated their father of his wages, or a student who told them to stop speaking Spanish on the school bus." when asked why the mainstream dont assosicat with the immigrants they mention "a worker who did not finish a job their parents had paid for, or a line of pregnant women at the clinic where their mother works, or a gang member who stole a friend’s books."
