Why is repeating the same old fashion school?

Fashion has certainly come a long way. Clothes these days have become a great combination of aesthetics and function. You may think as such because of the progress that we have maid in the clothing sector, it would not look back at our past. As a matter of fact, as usual, has a way to deny what everyone thinks. Today, we all see a resurgence of fashion popular styles of the past. It seems that the old-school fashion is back.

First of all, what is the old school of fashion? Well, it is fashion from 1970s-1980s. Old school fashion is being led by teenagers and young adults aware of fashion today. Old school fashion is not determined only by clothes. Old school is evident in fashion accessories, hairstyles, and even in the attitude of young people today. However, the question is why? Because it is fashionable to old school return?

There are a number of reasons why people are bringing back the old school of fashion. First of all, the charm of the past has started with the television. You realize that people who are bringing back the old school of fashion are the ones who grew up watching replicas of these shows as happy days? We are also the same generation who love watching that TV show based on the past as Show that 70.

Come to think of it, we are exposed so very trendy old-school in other media. Think of movies: there are those who have enjoyed watching the movies of old shows as Starsky and Hutch, Charlie's Angels and other films that have been resurrected from death camp TV old to the new life of cinema.

Well, i mean certainly brought the fashion revival of old school. It was the spark that created the fire. The question, however, is what powers the flames? The truth is that people like the old school of fashion. It looks good and helps you to reconnect with a past that was not as complicated as the world today. The reason why the old school of fashion is constantly gaining in popularity is the fact that, once it has been reintroduced in society, people found that they really liked it.

Old school fashion is also very popular due to the fact that there is just something that is so sexy. Old school fashion is designed to show the beauty of the human body. Fitted shirts and pants, cool models and drawings, these are trademarks of the past which have no real young.

Another reason, why people think that the old-school fashion is so cool is the fact that, combined with today's technology, comfortable fabrics, designs of old-school can be quite informal and yet at the same time.

So why is old-school fashion return? Well, some people would see as a metaphor for us trying to retrieve a past that never really belonged to us. It can also be a metaphor for trying to extract the best out of the past. You see, when the old-school fashion was brought into this century, we have never really brought all the bad memories with it. Old school fashion could be a great example of recapture the past good or bad could be a metaphor for selective amnesia. You decide.

Are We Just Harvesting Rotten Apples?

I think every reasonable person in this country agrees that education in America is a mess. The debate over education instead revolves around what or who is to blame and how to fix it.

The easy scapegoat is always poverty but in reality the biggest problem is complete mismanagement on the part of the government. The federal government has shown time and again they are not to be trusted with our childrens' education. Almost every time Secretary of Education Arne Duncan opens his mouth, I feel nauseous. Yesterday in the Washington Post, Duncan authored an OpEd on school reform where he discussed the failures of No Child Left Behind (NCLB) and various other areas the government has failed to fix education with its tinkering. His solution? More tinkering, naturally.

What's especially troubling is both parties seem to accept federal government oversight as the answer to our education problems. While government officials involved in education claim states should have more flexibility to manage their education systems, federal requirements on food and funding certainly limit a state's ability to govern its own education, not to mention the ridiculous use of standardized testing that forces teachers to teach to a test rather than the needs of their specific class. Duncan claims Republicans and Democrats alike want to "fix NCLB" but why fix something that never worked in the first place? Forget about fixing it, get rid of NCLB altogether. Does NCLB (or it's replacement, the Elementary and Secondary Education Act) contain anything that makes bad teachers accountable? Does it effectively deal with the problems caused by teacher unions? Does it provide for better parental choice? Does NCLB or ESEA allow the state to decide what's best on a local level so they can deal directly with specific problems in each district? Does it hold bad parents accountable? The answer to most, if not all of these questions is "no" and our education crisis won't be repaired until those issues are addressed successfully.

None of this is meant to trivialize the negative impact poverty has on education. Poor students certainly have a greater socioeconomic burden to overcome but of all the problems in our education system, poverty is the easiest hurdle to overcome. You don't need money to study or help your kids with homework or take advantage of a teacher's willingness to spend extra time with a struggling student.

In her opinion piece yesterday, Valerie Strauss placed a large amount of blame not only on poverty but also upon all of us who are not impoverished. The fact that most people with children are struggling to raise their own kids was lost on Strauss as she pointed a finger at them for not caring enough about other peoples' kids. Yes, there are a lot of families living in or at near poverty levels but where is all the money for entitlement programs going if not to feed, clothe and house these poor families? How much more are Americans expected to give to others outside their household?

The song and dance over poverty being the root cause of poor education needs to come to an end if we are going to realistically and successfully deal with the problem. Lots of poor kids with the proper parenting still perform well in school. It is a parent's responsibility to work with their kid's teachers to insure he or she is learning in school.

Strauss claims we "demonize teachers," unfairly blaming them for a child's poor performance. She is only partially correct here. Most people don't blame teachers in general for education problems but rather place the blame on bad teachers and the system's refusal to dismiss these bad teachers. Teacher unions have consistently fought to weaken teacher appraisal, protect tenure, and even fight against a bonus award program that reward teachers financially for higher performance. All this has done is place more burden on good teachers while protecting bad teachers and ultimately doing a massive disservice to our students.

Strauss also supported pay increases for teachers, prioritizing national pre-kindergarten classes, and increase funding for public schools. Naturally she offers no suggestions on just how we afford these increases though I guess she expects those careless Americans she referred to at the beginning of her article to foot the bill via increased taxes.

Poverty is certainly a problem in our country and there's little doubt that poor kids will have a harder time in school. With that understanding, parents should know they will have to work harder and longer with their kids. School administrators will have to create curricula that has the flexibility to cater to students from a variety of socioeconomic backgrounds. Teacher unions need to work at protecting good teachers and allowing schools to weed out the bad ones via teacher evaluations. And government needs to step aside and allow all of the parties listed above to do their part without burdensome limitations.

Marketing Class

From Fox News to local news to Time Magazine, the topic of advertising in schools is being debated all over the country. Yet, if you walk through any school in America you'll see kids with the latest technological gadget, the most current cell phone, and designer (or at least imposter designer) bags. These are not children who have been shielded from commercials or the products they advertise. Why then is there a growing debate across the nation revolving around corporate advertisements on school property?

In a time of school cut-backs and teacher layoffs, money is desperately needed in many public school districts. Advertising dollars have been a Godsend to many struggling schools, with administrators saying the advertisements provide the much needed funds to keep vital programs alive and good teachers employed in these tough economic times. On the opposite side, critics are claiming our schools should not be in the business of promoting brand names to our impressionable, young children. Who's right?

There are a limited number of options for funding public schools and obviously the current method is broken if schools are so hard up for cash. Local property taxes are a major source of funding for schools but state funds are another big source of support. Money on the state level comes from a variety of sources, such as sales and gasoline taxes. The only way to get more money from these sources is to raise taxes or cut other programs. Another option is for the school to make more money or cut costs. School fundraising raises enough to buy new uniforms for the band or football team but not enough to keep teachers employed. That's where the ads come in and, if you asked me (which you didn't but since you're reading this you are kind of enough to entertain my opinion), ads are a great way to get money.

Corporations are happy to pay a fee to plaster buses, lockers, and cafeterias with advertisements promoting their brands and services. Some schools have offered up their roof for billboard space, advertising to the passengers of low flying planes. In my opinion, there is no real down side to this. Corporations become moderately invested in a school, perhaps making them more likely to offer charitable gifts and donations to the school, and the school gets a shot of some necessary funding...keeping the very necessary teachers they may have laid off otherwise.

In most cases, these kids are going home from school to watch tv or surf the internet. They are going to the mall with their friends. In other words, they are not being harmed by a few more ads at school. However, if they lose their favorite teacher (or their least favorite but most effective one), they could be having some harm done. I think funding an education is far more important than pretending our kids are not already living in a commercial world. I don't believe in redistribution of wealth but I do believe that a good education should be a top priority of any community. If funding that education comes from advertising dollars, so be it. It beats having a bunch of uneducated kids who've managed to avoid seeing a few more advertisements during their day.

Kata Ganti Bahasa Arab Dhamir

ضَمِيْر Dhamir atau "kata ganti" ialah Isim yang berfungsi untuk menggantikan atau mewakili penyebutan sesuatu/seseorang maupun sekelompok benda/orang. Dhamir termasuk dalam golongan Isim Ma'rifah.

Contoh:
أَحْمَدُ يَرْحَمُ اْلأَوْلاَدَ
= Ahmad menyayangi anak-anak
هُوَ يَرْحَمُهُمْ
= Dia menyayangi mereka

Pada contoh di atas, kata أَحْمَدُ diganti dengan هُوَ(=dia), sedangkan الأَوْلاَد (=anak-anak) diganti dengan هُمْ(=mereka).

Kata هُوَ dan هُمْ dinamakan Dhamir atau Kata Ganti.

Menurut fungsinya, ada dua golongan Dhamir yaitu:

1) DHAMIR RAFA' ( ضَمِيْر رَفْع ) yang berfungsi sebagai Subjek.
2) DHAMIR NASHAB ( ضَمِيْر نَصْب ) yang berfungsi sebagai Objek.

Dhamir Rafa' dapat berdiri sendiri sebagai satu kata, sedangkan Dhamir Nashab tidak dapat berdiri sendiri atau harus terikat dengan kata lain dalam kalimat.

Dalam kalimat: هُوَ يَرْحَمُهُمْ (= Dia menyayangi mereka):
- Kata هُوَ (=dia) adalah Dhamir Rafa', sedangkan:
- Kata هُمْ (=mereka) adalah Dhamir Nashab.
