deiyezooger: Maybe if they didn’t have to cram all that info in such a short period of time, they would be better students. A longer school year would mean a longer time to absorb info. Even if they don’t have the zitz fleish, you could incorporate vocational work in the curriculum. PS I am also in favor of extending the school day too.
First, usb is a communication and power protocol. It can be used in many ways. Its just a cable style with power that runs through it.
Now,
USB key drives use highly advanced flash memory. There is only so much you can pack on to a little card.
A USB external drive is just that. A hard drive that connects to your computer with a USB cable. That is, it doesn’t need to be plugged into the wall for power like say an old printer. The electrical power to the drive as well as its communication comes from the cable to the computer.
I disagree with the whole school calendar i general. There should be no huge breaks in school at all. Not even for the summer. That summer “vacation” was instituted back when we were a primarily farming nation. Heaven knows why we still keep it. Yes, kids need a break. But smaller breaks over the course of the year would be much much better. As it is, kids have to cram to keep up with all the info their brains have to hold. Wouldn’t it be better if we had year round schooling, with say 4 well placed breaks about a week at a time? Less time for kids to do mischeif. less time to bum out, Less time to forget all the stuff they had learned all year. OK, so maybe a longer break in the summer or whatever. the point is, More school = smarter more well prepared kids.
Mewho, Hatzolah in NY has gobs and gobs of cash. And people falling over themselves to donate ambulances. Give it to a smaller division like Elizabeth or Passaic.
Even aniyim have an obligation to give tzedakah. I think that this proves the point that its not the amount, its the physical act of “giving” no?
