Prime property prices soar 6% in a month as pound plummets
- Wealthy foreign buyers given boost as pound slumps
- Kensington and Chelsea sees 6.2 per cent monthly rise in asking prices
- Asking prices up in London by average of 1.9pc since Feb
Published: 18 March 2013
The sudden slump in the value of the pound has given the central London property market a dramatic boost at the start of the spring "buying season", according to a report out today.
Sterling has fallen by about seven per cent since the start of the year, making London property far more affordable to wealthy foreign buyers armed with dollars, euros or Chinese yuan.
Sellers are in the strongest position in the most desirable areas of central London, with Kensington & Chelsea seeing a 6.2 per cent monthly rise in asking prices to £2.32 million, up 15.8 per cent on the same time last year, according to property website Rightmove.
Westminster properties came to the market in March priced at an average of £1.58 million, up 5.8 per cent in a month or 14 per cent in a year.
The biggest annual rise was 16.8 per cent in Hammersmith and Fulham, where average asking prices breached £1 million for the first time.
Across London, average asking prices are 1.9 per cent higher than in February, at £496,298, and nine per cent higher than last year.
Although there is no guarantee that asking prices will be achieved, the sharp upward trend suggests a strong "sellers' market", with vendors and agents confident of finding buyers at higher prices.
The upward pressure on prices has been intensified by a shortage of homes on the market at the start of the peak buying season.
Rightmove director Miles Shipside said: "London's housing market continues to forge ahead, with seller pricing power still holding up in spite of the nine per cent jump seen in the last 12 months.
"Overseas buyers transferring their dollars or euros into sterling have found their buying power boosted since the beginning of the year. Many new-build developers have been mining this rich seam of overseas cash very successfully.
"While it is all a question of timing, some of these buyers may feel they currently have a window of opportunity that may push out some local buyers looking for a new home this spring."
However, the steep rises will dismay would-be first-time buyers who have been holding out for a slump in the property market to give them a better chance of scrambling on to the property ladder.
The only boroughs where asking prices have slipped in the past month are Brent, Haringey, Tower Hamlets, Bromley, Sutton, Enfield, Croydon, Bexley and Barking and Dagenham.

The Flaming Feet and Other Essays: The Dalit Movement in India
D.R. Nagaraj
In this volume of sixteen essays, D. R. Nagaraj, the foremost non-Brahmin intellectual to emerge from India's non-English-speaking world, presents his vision of the Indian caste system in relation to Dalit politics—the Dalit being a self-designation for many groups in the lower castes of India. Nagaraj argues that the Dalit movement rejected the traditional Hindu world and

All bad news, so the markets tanked 513 points! The sell off wiped out the gains for 2011. I swear if I find someone who votes for Obama in 2012, I'll end up in jail!............ I read this somewhere, so bear with me. It goes something like this...... "You voted for Obama in 2008 to prove you weren't a racist. Vote for someone else in 2012 to prove you're not stupid!" ........This just in off the wire.........Sarah Palin has been offered $4 million to pose in Playboy! ............Michelle Obama has been offered $75 dollars to pose in National Geographic........... In other news......KFC used to have a Hillary meal that offered 2 small breasts and two large thighs. Now KFC is offering the "Obama Cabinet Bucket"......it consists of nothing but "Left Wings and a butt".......in more news...........
woooooooo hoooooooooooooarty::fest30::banana::lmao: can't wait for the rest of it to go down the drain, maybe that will kick off the revolution III.:smokin:
thats right, no one wants it. let's all go vote for another loser...you pick the party. lets just keep this thing going on further in the toilet, lets watch as things erode all around us. let us all shimmy on up to the voting booth like good folks, lets all get shafted by the politicians, lets all welcome all them illegals that are flooding the country, lets all just turn in our guns and ammo to the gummint cause we don't need them. Life Liberty and the Pursuit of Happiness, just a quaint idea of another time. go ahead enjoy things, i am praying for the Revolution III.
Well tell me how you feel about that revolution when you have to shoot at a national guard soldier flying Ol' Glory on his arm because he's shooting at you following orders while you're going on your revolution. Also tell how it feels when you can't go down to the grocery store tomorrow and you have to find someone way to gather food without breaking curfew and risk getting shot at. We'll see how that revolution feels then.
Some people are blaming the Republicans for this. That's like blaming the guys manning the lifeboats on the Titanic instead of the captain................ tom
Every politician kissing the behind of a lobbyist is at fault. Democrat or Republican, it does not matter.
The politicians stopped representing the people that elect them a long time ago. It's a sad commentary when little old gray haired grannies are telling me "The soap box doesn't work anymore, neither does the ballot box. The only thing left is the cartridge box."
They who can give up essential liberty to obtain a little temporary safety, deserve neither liberty nor safety-Benjamin Franklin
I'm 55! I don't care if I die tomorrow ensuring that my kids and grandchildren still have a way of life and a country to live in, and for! I'm willing to do whatever it takes to insure that my offspring and my grandchildren don't starve or learn a foreign language to exist. If I have to band with a few million Tea Party folks to get my point across, so be it! I didn't serve in the U.S. Navy because I didn't have anything better to do! I just wanted to give back to my forefathers who served and gave the ultimate sacrifice to ensure that the American way of life was passed on through each generation! It's past time to act! It's probably too late, but marching on Washington and showing solidarity can't hurt! ....... I know we owe the Chinese a gazillion dollars, but what happens if we flip them the bird? Do you honestly believe that they would attack us? 55% of our manufacturing comes from China! If we were to shut down all that manufacturing they'd go bat-chit crazy and have an unemployment and starvation rate that would cause the Chinese to overthrow their own government! Trust me, China ain't gonna call our bluff! In the mean time, we need to get Americans to start thinking of something bigger than their wallet!........ It amazes me that the UAW wants a pay raise when the whole world is going to chit! Is this the rank and file or the union bosses talking????? ...... I've been out in 112 degree heat, working most of the day since 0515 AM.......... I want some latitude here! I'm sure Obama has something to do with the weather, stock markets, and the general disposition of the average American! I worked up a sweat just typing this!
We'll see where all this talk gets us when it's nut cuttin' time. We'll see how everyone feels when they have to throw their sights down on someone and shoot them. I'm prepared and ready, hope you all are that want violent revolution.
If that national guard soldier is following orders to shoot civilians and oppress the people of this nation in order to allow the immoral idiots in office to continue to move to bring this country to its knees, then that soldier is no better than those guys in office. I don't want it to happen, but if it does, I will defend the purpose of this country the way I see what is right. That is the right for every person in this country to persue freedom and liberty. That is for the government to keep their mits out of my business. That is for myself and those I care about to not be scared to do the right thing. Again, I am not a violent person, but I will shoot at tyrants if the time comes. I may lose sleep at night after the fact, but I can reassure myself that those who wish to control the population through over-governing, through force...they are evil and deserve their fate. I will weep for those who fall at my side, but will not allow their deaths to be in vein. Should the time ever come, I will fight to the end for the freedom of our people and the sovereignty of our nation. Evil does not deserve to prosper and when push comes to shove, I believe more people than not will realize that.
Yep-a-Doodle The people are smarter than the politicians. The only thing that happened was that the Republicans caved to the liberal interests wanting another two point five trillion in debt to keep up their spending. Bravo to the people. If you see my new thread the New York Times has put Congressional disapproval at 82% which is the highest ever since the polling started. I just wish the elections were tomorrow.
And I will do the same, but to sit here and WANT revolution, is stupid, and childish. Revolution, which is violent, is war. It's bloody, dangerous, and people die. To praise revolution is stupid, and no body wants it but if it happens it happens.
There are those of us who have served in the military, during Viet Nam, who were raised in a time when this country was considered to be the banner bearer for Liberty. This country is no longer the symbol of Liberty it once was, and it angers us to see what is happening to our home. If a social uprising and/or violent shooting revolution against our tyrannical gubmint, would give us a better chance of restoring Liberty to this once great nation, then I say, "BRING IT ON!" We are ready. Like anything else in life, it is a GAMBLE. There is no guarantee that conditions will improve. However, if we continue to allow our gubmint to follow the same path they have done for the last 100 years, we ARE GUARANTEED that conditions will get much worse. World War III will be the congress criminals' ultimate "solution" to the economic problem. War is ALWAYS the "solution" for a dying empire that has spent itself into oblivion. The CHANCE of Liberty is the exact same CHANCE that our Founding Fathers faced when they wrote the Declaration of Independence, 245 years ago. Are we so much more valuable, as individuals, than they were, that we don't have to risk our lives to insure Liberty? A "Yes" answer to that question earns you a future of indentured servitude for you, your heirs, and the rest of the population of the world. The markets of the world have shown that they have no faith in the US gubmint. Why should we?
The two party system of the current government is really looking like 3 card monte. They keep trying to draw your attention one place, while the other two cards are gouging the America public while they are not looking. When the current issue is "solved", the card is switched to a different card to what they want you to watch. The Lib Fib is a pro 3 card monte dealer, and he has the brainless steamed media to help him shift focus where he needs it. Now that the fake default didnt happen, the focus will either shift to some sort of military maneuver, a scandal, or the Lib Fib and his family will be on vacation...yet again. Any takers?

Anyway, as these satirical definitions of common words (created by the fine folks at Sad and Useless) prove, sometimes a creative interpretation is actually more accurate than the "real" definition we know.

Re-imagining the Web portal
Web portals had their heyday in the early 1990's. Remember Lycos, Alta-vista, Yahoo, and Excite – portals which had neatly partitioned the web into compartments for e.g. Autos, Beauty, Health, and Games etc. Enter Google. It had a webpage with a single search bar. With a single stroke Google pushed all the portals to virtual oblivion. It became obvious to the user that all information was just a "search away". There was no longer the need for neat categorization of all the information on the web. There was no need to work your way through links... [More]

Cloud Computing: Show me the money!
A lot has been said about the merits of cloud computing and how it is going to be the technological choice of most enterprises in the not so distant future. But the key question that is bound to keep cropping up in the higher echelons of the enterprise is whether the cloud makes good business sense.

The promise of the cloud is the unlimited computing power and storage capacities coupled with the pay-per-use policy. This makes the cloud particularly irresistible for hosting web applications and applications whose demand vary periodically.

Though the cloud provides resources on-demand a badly designed application can hog resources and prove to be extremely expensive in the long run.

The Canadian Press - ONLINE EDITION
Magnotta preliminary hearing nears end with final testimony this week
MONTREAL - If Luka Rocco Magnotta is ordered to stand trial, it should be on a charge of second-degree murder and not first-degree, one of his lawyers said Monday.
Luc Leclair told court he intends to make final arguments to that effect later this week as Magnotta's preliminary inquiry wraps up.
Magnotta, 30, is charged with first-degree murder in the death of Chinese engineering student Jun Lin. He has pleaded not guilty and opted for trial before a judge and jury. A trial likely wouldn't be heard until 2014.
The Crown says only one more witness might appear at the hearing. After closing arguments, a judge will have to decide whether Magnotta's case should be sent to trial.
On Monday, the proceedings resumed after a two-week break. Witnesses included Montreal's Dong Dong Xu, a man described as a good friend of Lin's, as wel as people who appeared from Vancouver via a video link.
Xu answered questions from Crown and defence lawyers as Magnotta listened impassively.
Xu, 30, attempted to have a publication ban placed on his identity, but the judge dismissed the request.
The Vancouver witnesses included a Canada Post employee and a police constable.
Also, the court heard from two witnesses each from St-George's School, an all-boys school, and two from False Creek Elementary School.
Both are located in Vancouver.
More than 30 witnesses have been heard so far. Prosecutor Louis Bouthillier only plans to call one more, from France. However, it remained nebulous whether the individual would be called.
Testimony from witnesses who were expected to testify via video link from Germany has been cancelled. The defence says it won't hear any witnesses.
None of the evidence can be published because of a court-ordered ban.
In addition to first-degree murder, Magnotta is also facing four other charges related to the case: committing an indignity to a body; publishing obscene material; criminally harassing Prime Minister Stephen Harper and other members of Parliament; and mailing obscene and indecent material.
Lin's father attended the brief afternoon hearing.
Quebec court Judge Lori-Renee Weitzman is hearing the case. Any trial would take place in Quebec Superior Court.

What are the applications of microprocessors in daily life?
General Computing Microprocessors commonly used in general computing tasks include those embedded in your laptop or desktop computers. These microprocessors are responsi…ble for the core computing processes of your computer, such as calculation and data transfer. �Signal Processing Microprocessors are also used as "signal processors" for decoding radio signals and digital signals, such as those used in digital televisions. Moreover, microprocessors used in signal processing allows people, from different parts of the world, to talk and see each other via their computer screens using small video cameras, which are usually embedded with microphones. �Real-Time Computing In real-time computing systems, microprocessors are embedded in security devices such as the anti-lock braking system (ABS) that are widely used in modern automobiles. The microprocessor detects motions and changes, that are relative to the surrounding or environment of the security device and sends signals that correspond to the changes that it detected.

What are the applications of science in daily life?
Pretty much anything you do has some science underlying it. For instance, the computer on which you asked this question, as well as the Internet, are products of science. Yo…ur radio, television, gamebox, and telephone are as well. Using many of these devices does not require a knowledge of much science any more, however. Although to use a telephone, for instance, you have to have an understanding of logic, numbers, and geography (area codes), and setting up a gamebox requires a basic understanding of some principles of electrical and mechanical engineering. There are other so many in daily life where your knowledge of science is applied directly: Applied Mathematics: * Using a calculator * Calculating a tip in a restaurant in your heand * Measuring ingredients or dimensions Economics: * Banking * Writing checks * Drawing up a budget/determining what you can afford * Paying income or sales tax Applied Physics: * Cooking * Baking * Working out Applied Cartography/Orienteering * Choosing routes to drive, walk, or ride a balk * Determining locations using addresses or milestones * Hiking * Using a map Applied Semiotics or Linguistics * Deciphering signs and symbols everywhere in life * Deciding how to punctuate or write human speech * Reading books or magazines Nutritional Science: * Preparing food and making decisions on what is good or bad to eat Medical Science: * Self-medicating (e.g. taking an aspirin or acetaminophin, etc.) * Understanding potential interactions of over-the-counter products (e.g. knowing not to mix DayQuil or NyQuil with Tylenol, cough syrup, or antihistamine) * Bandaging and basic triage (treating pimples, cuts, burns, bruises) * Taking a temperature * Stretching and preparing muscles for exercise * Knowledge and application of proper hygiene * Knowledge of diseases and how they are transmitted (e.g. flu, cold, chicken box, STDs, etc.) * Knowledge of birth control and disease prevention Sociology: * Understanding how to behave in certain contexts * Knowing what kinds of behavior to expect from others * Understanding rules of etiquette and politeness in different contexts * Following and understanding political discussions or news reports * An awareness of how the individual fits into larger and larger groups of people Psychology: * Taking measures to improve one's own or someone else's mental health (e.g. exercise, relaxation, stress management, etc.) (MORE)
Application of matrices in daily life?
In computer based applications, matrices play a vital role in the projection of three dimensional image into a two dimensional screen, creating the realistic seeming motio…ns. Stochastic matrices and Eigen vector solvers are used in the page rank algorithms which are used in the ranking of web pages in Google search. The matrix calculus is used in the generalization of analytical notions like exponentials and derivatives to their higher dimensions. One of the most important usages of matrices in computer side applications are encryption of message codes. Matrices and their inverse matrices are used for a programmer for coding or encrypting a message. A message is made as a sequence of numbers in a binary format for communication and it follows code theory for solving. Hence with the help of matrices, those equations are solved. With these encryptions only, internet functions are working and even banks could work with transmission of sensitive and private data's. (MORE)
The Gas Laws: An Introduction
This article is a review of basic gas laws and how they relate to each other in the ideal gas law.… (MORE)
Gas Laws in Chemistry
In chemistry, the relationships between gas physical properties are described as gas laws. Some of these properties are pressure, volume, and temperature. These laws show how …a change in one of these properties affects the others. The gas laws in chemistry are: Boyle's Law, Charles' Law, the Combined Gas Law, Avogadro's Law, and the Ideal Gas Law. Another less used gas law in chemistry is the so-called Gay-Lussac's Law.English chemist Robert Boyle discovered the relationship between volume and pressure. This relationship is called Boyle's Law. Boyle's Law states that the volume of a gas and its pressure are inversely proportional. This means the more volume a gas has, the less pressure it will experience.The French mathematician and physicist J. A. C. Charles quantified the relationship between the volume and temperature of a gas. The law he formulated is called Charles' Law. Charles' Law states that the volume of a gas and its temperature in Kelvin are directly proportional. Charles was very much into the study of gases, and to further his research, he even ascended in a hydrogen-filled balloon.The Combined Gas Law in chemistry is a combination between Boyle's Law and Charles' Law. It is used whenever both variables of temperature and pressure change. While Boyle's Law shows how pressure and volume are related at constant temperature, Charles' Law shows how volume and temperature are related at constant pressure. Combined, these two define gases under two different sets of conditions. The Combined Gas Law formula includes all three variables: volume, pressure, and temperature.In the Combined Gas Law formula, P1 is the initial pressure of a gas, V1 is its initial volume, and T1 is the initial temperature of the gas in Kelvin. On the right side of the equation, P2 is the final pressure of a gas, V2 is its final volume, and T2 is the final temperature of the gas in Kelvin. Obviously, this gas law combines the previous two, Boyle's Law and the Charles' Law, as all three variables are present. The Combined Gas Law only applies when the amount of gas is constant.Avogadro's Law states that the volume of a gas and the amount of the gas in moles are directly proportional. Avogadro's Law assumes constant temperature and pressure. This means that when the amount of gas increases, its volume increases as well. If the number of gas particles increases at constant pressure and temperature, then the particles must occupy more volume. Together with the Combined Gas Law, Avogadro's Law forms the ideal gas law.The Ideal Gas Law claims that the variables of pressure, volume, temperature, and number of moles in a gas are interrelated. The Ideal Gas Law is hypothetical, but it applies to many real gases. Emile Clapeyron first proposed this new idea in 1834. The Ideal Gas Law contains within it the simple gas laws, such as the Avogadro's Law, Charles' Law, and the Boyle's Law. An ideal gas is a hypothetical gas in which collisions between atoms and molecules are elastic, and no intermolecular attractive forces occur. An ideal gas has three variables: absolute pressure, volume, and absolute temperature. The Ideal Gas Law is an approximation to the behavior of gases under various conditions, and therefore it has limitations.The formula of the Ideal Gas Law is PV equals nRT. On the left side of the equation, "P" stands for the gas pressure in atmosphere, and "V" is the volume of the gas. On the right side of the equation, "n" represents the Avogadro's number in moles, "R" is the ideal gas constant, and "T" stands for the temperature of the gas temperature in Kelvin.These are the gas laws used in chemistry to describe the behavior of gases in regard to three of their physical properties: pressure, temperature, and volume. It may seem complicated that so many laws were needed, but they do explain each other. They can even be used instead of another, which shows how accurate they actually are. The main gas laws in chemistry are: Boyle's Law, Charles' Law, the Combined Gas Law, Avogadro's Law, and the Ideal Gas Law.There is another gas law in chemistry, the so-called Gay-Lussac's Law. This law states that the temperature and pressure of a gas are directly proportional if the volume remains constant. The French chemist and physicist Joseph Louis Gay-Lussac made this discovery in 1808. However, it is also speculated that the idea belonged to Guillaume Amontons, a French inventor and physicist.

10 Ways To Use Beer In Your Daily Life
Beer can give cocktails a sharper, tangier, and more refreshing bite than the bubbles from soda. Experiment with flavors you know already go together, like Mexican (corona and… margarita flavors), Irish (guinness, whiskey, cream, and mint), or Southern (bourbon, rosemary, and lager). The best part is that there is always beer left over to have after the cocktail.If you have all three, you should probably just move. But if it's just one type, leave a bowl of beer out (or a bucket for mice and cockroaches). They'll all be attracted to the smell of brew and then either get stuck or drown inside. It's a cruel way to go, but it's better to drown drunk in beer than writhing in cyanide or arsenic.Write down a list of everything you think is good in the world. Then, add beer batter to all of them and be amazed at the potential for good in this universe. Beer batter makes everything better. Honorable mentions go to fried avocado, shrimp, onion rings, chicken, and hot dogs.Mussels, clams, and even shrimp all benefit from a good beer steam of equal parts beer and water. Just be careful not to use the super cheap stuff. The impurities can transfer to the seafood and give the meat a bitter, soapy taste. If you use darker, heavier beer add a little extra water to avoid stickiness.Rub some beer in your hair before lying outside in the summer. The beer will prep your hair to receive natural highlights from the sun. Some people use lemon or lime juice for this, but beer can be a bit easier on your scalp's skin. Be prepared for a rainbow of natural brightness.Beer is slightly acidic and thus can make a great meat tenderizer as a marinade. Leaner cuts that are usually on the tougher side can benefit the most from a 24-hour beer soak. Be sure to poke holes in the meat to help the marinade get to the center of the cut. Put all of the usual herbs you want to flavor the meat with as well. It might be tempting, but remember to not drink the marinade.Beer can be a great tool for staining or cleaning and maintaining wood. Its slight acidity paired with carbonation helps it to reach deeper into the grain without covering up any of the wood's natural pattern. As you would assume, the darker the beer, the darker the resulting stain will be.Grab a hoppy IPA and prepare to drink away the stress. Yes, three or four drinks of any kind can take the edge off, but the extra hops in certain beers can have a vasodilation effect on your blood vessels and lower your blood pressure. Some people just drink a hops tea to do the trick without the alcohol, but these people are the kind of people who would remind the teacher that she forgot to assign homework.Adding beer in place of water in your pancake recipe can bring a burst of flavor to your flapjacks as well as make them twice as fluffy. Try this technique in matzo balls as well to add a huge zing of flavor to your chicken soup. Even baked goods like donuts and bread can benefit.If you feel like getting weird in the privacy of your own home, soak your feet at the end of the day in a bowl of half beer and half peppermint tea. This will have an incredibly cooling, reviving feel that will melt away any soreness and help with odor-control problems as well. (MORE)

What to Expect During the Law School Application Process
Deciding to attend law school is a major commitment in your life. The tuition represents a significant investment, whether you have been saving up for it or you plan to take o…ut loans to cover the bulk of the cost. Picking the right law school for your needs is very important, and the law school application process is complicated. Make sure that you are ready for each part of the process; the fewer surprises you encounter, the more likely you are to end up at the school of your choice.The good news is that you do not need to know the law before taking this test. The LSAT (Law School Admissions Test) does not measure what you already know about the law; instead, it measures your skills in areas that law school admission boards find essential for success in law school and in law practice. There are three types of multiple choice questions on the test: reading comprehension, logical reasoning and analytical reasoning. To prepare for the test, visit one of the many websites offering practice questions, and invest in review books. If the test still intimidates you, sign up for an LSAT review class. Most test preparation firms offer this in their suite of services.Most people who want to be a lawyer have a general idea of the sort of law they want to practice upon graduation. Research some of the law schools out there to see which programs have the best reputations in the types of law you want to practice. Also look at admissions requirements and deadlines, so that you have your paperwork in on time. If your dream law school has a GPA requirement that is above what you have, it's better to pick a different school. While the name on the diploma is extremely important for your first few jobs, it is the network you make that creates a lifelong difference in your career.It's true that you are looking for the very best law school to suit your needs. However, law schools operate the same way, poring through applications to find the best students to fill their classes. Sign up with the Candidate Referral Service through the Law School Admission Council website to get your profile in front of as many admissions counselors as possible. Elite law schools that you have not yet considered look through those databases, and if their admissions staff believes that you are a match, that school is likely to recruit you as a student.The law school application process is more of a closed system than applying to undergraduate school was. Credential assembly services allow you to consolidate your entire application into one report that you then send to the law schools in which you have an interest. That way your application makes more of a unified impression, giving admissions staff members the idea that you definitely want to attend their school.When you apply to law school, you make a decision that shapes the rest of your career. Make sure that you approach the application process with all of the professionalism with which you plan to approach your first position with a law firm.Consider on-campus law school visits, during your junior year as an undergraduate student, to better educate yourself both on specific law school programs and on the pros and cons of individual law schools. These visits aid you in developing a better grasp of what to expect during the law school application process. (MORE)

Essential Elements to Include With Your Law School Application
Admission requirements for law schools vary across the board, with each institution determining what qualifications a candidate must demonstrate. Nevertheless, there are certa…in elements that all candidates need to submit with their law school application. Without these crucial items, a law school cannot make an informed decision regarding a prospective student's candidacy.A well-written personal statement is the crux of any law school application. This is an essay that clearly explains a student's motivation for applying to law school. Candidates must use this opportunity to outline their unique capabilities and past experience for the selection committee. Upon completing this essay, it is essential to have the document proofread for grammatical errors and clarity.The Law School Admission Test is a standardized test that the Law School Admission Council administers several times each year. Many law schools have specific score requirements for prospective students. If the desired score proves difficult to obtain, candidates are eligible to retake the test two more times over the course of a two-year period.Many law students want to pursue a career in the legal field upon completing their undergraduate coursework. For this reason, would-be law students frequently obtain degrees in specific subjects, including history, English and political science. In most instances, however, law schools do not require candidates to have degrees in particular subject matters. This allows students with degrees in other specialties to apply to law school regardless of their academic history.A simple bachelor's degree is not sufficient evidence of a candidate's previous academic tenure. Instead, law schools generally require transcripts from undergraduate coursework. Many schools demand that candidates demonstrate a specific grade point average, whereas others solely verify that the students have no academic demerits on their records.Each institution sets its own requirements regarding the number of recommendation letters a student needs to submit with a law school application. These letters must come from former professors and academic advisers. Students must select individuals who have an intimate understanding of the candidate's academic history and are willing to vouch for the student's personal character.Completing a law school application is an important first step for a candidate who wishes to pursue a career as an attorney. Potential students need to spend plenty of time revising their school applications. This ensures that the selection committee has all of the information necessary to make a decision on admission.Carefully read, review and follow the rules and instructions for your selected law school's admissions process to the letter. A small oversight indicates to admissions that a career in law isn't for you. Also, don't forget to submit a resume with your application detailing your work history and community contributions. This is more effective than adding this information in your personal statement. (MORE)
Application of thermodynamics in your daily life?
1) All types of vehicles that we use, cars, motorcycles, trucks, ships, aeroplanes, and many other types work on the basis of second law of thermodynamics and Carnot Cycle. Th…ey may be using petrol engine or diesel engine, but the law remains the same. 2) All the refrigerators, deep freezers, industrial refrigeration systems, all types of air-conditioning systems,heat pumps, etc work on the basis of the second law of thermodynamics. 3) All types of air and gas compressors, blowers, fans, run on various thermodynamic cycles. 4) One of the important fields of thermodynamics is heat transfer, which relates to transfer of heat between two media. There are three modes of heat transfer: conduction, convection and radiation. The concept of heat transfer is used in wide range of devices like heat exchangers, evaporators, condensers, radiators, coolers, heaters, etc. 5) Thermodynamics also involves study of various types of power plants like thermal power plants, nuclear power plants, hydroelectric power plants, power plants based on renewable energy sources like solar, wind,geothermal, tides, water waves etc, 6) Renewable energy is an important subject area of thermodynamics that involves studying the feasibility of using different types of renewable energy sources for domestic and commercial use.

Comments about Moly Carb 10 in. 40T General Purpose Steel Circular Saw Blade:
This blade came standard on my HF table saw. After cutting and ripping many 2x4's to make 1x4's this blade is still sharp. This is an excellent blade and very good price.

District 186

Parents Angry School Stayed Open, District 186 Responds
Monday's ice storm didn't stop Springfield public schools from holding classes. But it also meant many school buses were late to pick up students. Parents complained of students waiting up to 45 minutes in the cold and freezing rain as buses maneuvered the slick roads. Many took to the district's Facebook page to hurl insults about the decision to keep school open.
Erin Predmore has two children who attend district schools. She told the school board there needs to be better communication from the district and suggested using a text-messaging service to update parents when buses are running late so kids can wait indoors as long as possible. "We don't all have the luxury of being able to put our children in our car that is already heated with leather seats ... to drive them to school ourselves, they can't all be car-riders. And in our city we need to recognize the need of all of the students," said Predmore.
Interim superintendent Bob Hill says he regretted keeping school open, and didn't realize how bad the ice would get when he had to make the call around 5:30 am. "My crystal ball was foggy ... All I can say is I was as distraught as everybody else was at 7:45 when I'm out in it - thinking about how late the school buses are and so on," said Hill. He said about 70% of students made it in.
The district has already used up its emergency days for the school year but Hill says that does not effect his decision on calling off classes. Most other area-schools were able to avoid having to make the decision as they were closed for President's Day.

This looks like it's going to be extremely trippy, but I love that - it's hard to complain that anime is all the same old tired tropes when there's completely off-the-wall stuff like this still coming out every so often. I'm excited to see the first episode! | |||

Dengeki Daisy GN 16
Dengeki Daisy's final volume arrives, but does it provide a sufficiently happy ending for those we care about?
― Few series, shoujo or otherwise, have consistently retained the air of excitement, tension, and romance that Kyousuke Motomi's Dengeki Daisy has over its sixteen volume run. While the story shifted from high school romance to technological thriller, essentially settling on a "romantic susp...

Yatterman Night Episodes 1-12 Streaming
Yatterman Night turns a classic children's show into a story of dystopian struggle, but a lack of consistency threatens to bring the show to its knees.
― Yatterman Night's a strange one. Technically a "sequel" to the 70s cartoon Yatterman, it's akin to 2013's Gatchaman Crowds - an anime that takes a classic children's show and reenvisions it as a heavier piece for a new audience. In Crowds' case, thi...

My Love Story!! GN 4
My Love Story!! is the shoujo romance for people sick of shoujo romances.
― The central conceit of this collaboration between High School Debut's Kazune Kawahara and Aruko for the first three volumes was that Takeo was such a big, muscular, unattractive guy that no one but Yamato could possibly want to date him.

The lasting appeal of these images can be attributed not only to the events and landmarks that they capture but also to the quality of the photography itself.
