Fujifilm FinePix S1600 digital camera
FujiFilm's FinePix S1600 left a lot to be desired during our tests
- Impressive 15x zoom with fast and smooth focus
- Unimpressive image and video quality, manual settings are confusing
Bottom Line
Despite the impressive 15x optical zoom, the Fujifilm FinePix S1600 failed to impress us. During our tests, images were plagued with noise and chromatic aberration, and we found the camera difficult to use.

The FujiFilm FinePix S1600 is a 12.1-megapixel, 15x super-zoom digital camera. It has a few pros and a whole lot of cons. Put it this way: if the S1600 was your significant other and you were weighing up whether or not to end your relationship by creating a list of things you loved and hated, you'd have pretty solid grounds to sever all ties and put yourself on the market for a better camera.
The FinePix S1600 is solidly built but retains a compact frame (indeed, users with large hands might find its size bothersome). It takes four AA batteries, which sit in the handgrip.
Atop the S1600 sits the zoom rocker, which surrounds the shutter button. Below the zoom and shutter sit burst mode and face detection buttons, which are handy to have so close to the shutter release. Rather than a power button the S1600 has a switch, which seems logical as it sits close to the shutter release; this eliminates the risk of accidentally turning the camera off when trying to take a photograph. A program dial is next to the pop-up flash.
A mini-USB port can be found on the right side of the S1600; next to the LCD screen on the rear are navigational buttons and extra mode options (like macro), and a handy framing button. This button gives you the option to crop an image to various sizes in landscape or portrait orientation before taking the actual photograph. The 3in LCD screen does a poor job of displaying images, even if you adjust its brightness.
You can shoot by using the LCD screen to frame your photos or switching to the built in electronic viewfinder. We definitely favour using the screen, as the viewfinder is ghastly to look through; it's almost like watching delayed security camera footage (but in colour). The viewfinder is awkward to use: it's a little small, and if you don't line your eye up perfectly you'll end up seeing blue and red lines around your subject. To line your eye up properly, you'll need to squish your face right up against the LCD, which is uncomfortable and can leave marks on the screen. A protruding eye cup would definitely go a long way to making it more comfortable to use.
Our main concern with the FinePix S1600 is the overall image quality of photos. The FujiFilm FinePix S1600 delivered mixed results in our tests. Shooting in auto mode produced grainy, noisy, and all round unpleasant photographs in a variety of lighting conditions. Manual mode will definitely give the most pleasing results, but this reduces the camera's ease of use for novice photographers. We found adjusting the S1600's manual settings awkward; you need to press the +/- button make changes to the aperture and shutter, but to get a faster shutter you have to press down instead of up. For a beginner, or even a seasoned user of manual modes, the button configuration takes some getting used to.
This photograph was taken using auto mode in a well-lit environment, yet digital noise and pixel distortion are clearly visible
Photographs taken in manual mode also have flaws. Chromatic aberration is present in almost all photographs, and when it's not present there is unpleasant digital noise.
At first glance there's not much to complain about, except that the lens vignettes slightly.
When you fully zoom in, chromatic aberration (purple and green fringing) is clearly visible
Another annoyance factor was the camera's speed during our tests. It takes long time from switching the camera on to actually being able to take a picture. The interface is slow and sometimes the camera seemed to take quite a while to process an image.
The main selling point of this camera is its 15x super zoom. It has a 28-420mm focal range, and it zooms relatively quickly and smoothly. We found this to be the most impressive feature that the S1600 has to offer. You can really bring distant subjects very close (although you'll need a steady hand to get decent shots); we noticed that the camera could quickly focus and adjusted to changes in lighting when going from one zoom level to another.
The yellow patch in the top image represents the fully zoomed area in the bottom image
Video can be recorded at up to 720p and at 30 frames per second. Overall, videos are fuzzy and noisy. Audio quality is also disappointing: when zooming in you actually hear the internal zoom motor plus an almost static mash-up of everything going on around you.
The S1600's AA batteries add a bit of weight to the body, but the benefit is that you can always purchase more batteries if you run out of power while you're out and about snapping away. You can also purchase rechargeable alkaline replacement batteries. We would have preferred a compact lithium-ion battery, however. In the end it was the image quality we were most disappointed with: we found the S1600 to be an awkward super-zoom camera to use, and during our tests images suffered from a lot of chromatic aberration and noise.

First impression on unpacking the Q702 test unit was the solid feel and clean, minimalist styling.
Anthony Grifoni
For work use, Microsoft Word and Excel programs pre-installed on the device are adequate for preparing short documents.
Steph Mundell
The Fujitsu LifeBook UH574 allowed for great mobility without being obnoxiously heavy or clunky. Its twelve hours of battery life did not disappoint.
Andrew Mitsi
The screen was particularly good. It is bright and visible from most angles, however heat is an issue, particularly around the Windows button on the front, and on the back where the battery housing is located.
Simon Harriott
My first impression after unboxing the Q702 is that it is a nice looking unit. Styling is somewhat minimalist but very effective. The tablet part, once detached, has a nice weight, and no buttons or switches are located in awkward or intrusive positions.

Parks Canada
Home > National Historic Sites > Lachine Canal National Historic Site > What's New
Montreal (Quebec), October 5, 2015 – Parks Canada wishes to inform the public that the water level of the Lachine Canal will be lowered starting on October 19, 2015 for annual maintenance.
Water levels will remain low until the end of the inspection and maintenance work on the canal's structures.
Following extensive comments and ideas on the proposed canal lockage fee, Minister Kent announced on May 14, 2013, that Parks Canada will freeze recreational lockage fees along Canada's historic canals for three years at 2008 levels.
More information
The Lachine Canal's path is maintained from April 15th to November 15th each year.
The Lachine Canal National Historic Site's path was ranked third among the world's top urban cycling trips by the American magazine TIME.
Read the article
The Lachine Canal path was inaugurated in 1978. Part of its route follows the former towpath built when the canal opened in 1825. This path was used by horses that towed or pulled dismasted sailing vessels between Lachine and the Old Port.

OMG my dream come true!! I would love to try for the casting if still looking =) Please please feel free to contact me!
I would love to be part of this company, and if possible come to an audition if you are still looking! This is one of my ambitions, and I would be happy to be involved! BIG, BLONDE, AND BEAUTIFUL!!!
I would love to try for the casting. Modeling is a passion of mine. I'm very photogenic (camera ready at all times). Looking forward to hearing from you. Thanks
I'm interested in plus size modeling, I have no experience in modeling expect being in pageants in junior high & high school. However, modeling is something I've passionate about & eager to do. I'm ready for a career change in Plus size modeling. I'm looking forward to hearing from you.
Thanking you in advance!
I'm interested in plus size modeling, I have no experience in modeling….. But modeling is something I've always had a passion for about it. I'm ready for a career change in Plus size modeling. I'm looking forward to hearing from you.
I am interested in modeling. I have complete strangers come up to me and say that I have beautiful eyes. My eye color is hazel with dark black pixie hair cut. I am interested in becoming a model for Lane Bryant. Thank you for your time and consideration into my inquiry about modeling for Lane Bryant.
Leah Rodriguez
I would love to model for Lane Bryant, I am passionate about fashion. I am known for my ability to leave a lasting impression, serving charisma, character, confidence and a lot of style. This opportunity would be a dream come true and I hope to hear from you soon.
I am an aspiring full figured model. I am interested in participating in the Lane Bryant model call. Will there be a model call in 2014? Please provide me with more information.
Thank you!
Good to hear from you Mike. I always know excatly what to write to get you to pipe up, right? Reasonable people can disagree on these rankings, but Syracuse did just lose AT HOME to Pitt by DOUBLE DIGITS. I understand the Kansas-Cornell analogy by we all know Kansas would beat Cornell 9 out of 10 times. That's the definition of a fluke. Can we say that about Pitt-Cuse? I don't think so. Let me see more and then I will adjust accordingly. As for West Virginia and Villanova, I've had them 1-2 in that order since October and I see no reason to change that right now. Nova losing to Temple in one of those crazy Big 5 games (where upsets are commonplace) doesn't upset the apple cart in my mind. Again, it'll all play out. I actually enjoyed Boeheim's postgame after Seton Hall, even his potshot at the media about OOC schedule strength (at least the quotes were interesting and usable). Much better than the normal blah-blah-blah you get from a lot of the other guys. Bitter, the point about last year's Big East is how it was the deepest league ever. Obviously no league was better at the top than those mid-80s Big Easts. If it makes you feel better the next time it comes up I will put an asterisk and a footnote making this distinction. Piratefocus,I've been beating the drums for Fero Hall as you know, but he is way too small to play center in the Big East. Have you seen the size of the postmen on the other teams? Big John is a space-eater and is useful in short spurts (alas, his knees have robbed him of the rest). Fero has to beef up big-time before he can hold his own at center for any reasonable lengths.
I would love to be the New Face or lane Bryant clothing line, I am a dedicated consumer for many years now. So if selected, Not only would my dream come true, but I can inspire others like myself. Please contact Me! if Any opportunities comes my way.
I look @ the models in the Lane Bryant Catalog and I know, I just know myself and my daughter would be sooooo freakin perfect for them! My daughter, Danielle is now 21 and a size 16/18. She has the most beautiful eyes! Beautiful long hair and such a beautiful smile! She smiles all the time! She has roscia on her cheeks and the pinkish tint looks so natural. Her and myself do not wear makeup. When we do its very little. We both have been blessed with pretty skin.
I"m 43 and do not look my age. I have long long like down to my waist long hair, very full and pretty. I have brown eyes but lighten up w/ some green tints depending on what I wear. I'm a size 18/20. I know in my heart that my daughter and myself would be P E R F E C T as a plus size model! We are plus size but still have the curves and the moves and the look! Here's to us! Bless or Be Blessed!
I am very interested in modeling for your organization. I shop at Lane Bryant all the time and it would be awesome to model for them too.
Please feel free to contact me via email at email@example.com or 504-289-8824. I would love the opportunity to promote Lane Bryant's clothing. This would be an experience of a lifetime for me!
Since when did a size 6 become plus size?? I would love to be a model for Lane Bryant. I have always wanted to. I'm very pretty and self confident. But I am size 20/22 pants and 18 for tops.
I'm so interested in this opportunity

I feel that I would be a good face for Lane Bryant during its seasonal modeling for causes such as the Susan Komen Foundation, St. Jude, March of Dimes etc. for I want my face to mean more than another pretty face. I want to help the self esteem of other young ladies with issues of weight and loving themselves in the eyes of others and their counterparts. I am more than ready to be "THE FACE" for your company
I love LB's clothes and I love your message even better. It's long overdue and so important to help empower women of all shapes and sizes to feel confident and beautiful. I would be proud to participate in such a great cause. Thank you for considering me.

In this tutorial i am going to show you guys how to hide files or folders using command prompt. Manually hide/unhide folders without using any softwares. You can even create a batch file for this. See how to unlock hidden files.
This is quick and easy .
1)Go to run and type "cmd"[without quotes] and press ok.
2)Type **attrib c:xyzabcd +h +s**[without **] and hit enter.
This will hide folder abcd located at c:xyz.
3)To unhide the folder just change the "+" sign with "-"
**attrib c:xyzabcd -h -s**
and hit enter.
ATTRIB = This command allows the user to change the properties of a file/folder.
c:xyzabcd = Path of the folder.Change this with the path of the folder you want to hide.
[+ ,-] = "+" sign adds the attribute to the file while "-" removes the attribute from the file.
h = Hidden file attribute.
s = System file attribute.
So you just saw how to hide files and folders and how to view hidden files and folders.

The Flyers had full command of the first period, out-shooting the Sabres 16-2 and getting the period's lone goal, from defenseman Braydon Coburn in the final minute of the period.
On a faceoff in the right circle in the Buffalo end, the Flyers' Claude Giroux set up to take the draw against Buffalo's Paul Gaustad. A false start led to Giroux getting kicked out of the circle, replaced by Danny Briere. It worked out for the Flyers, however, when Briere beat Gaustad cleanly, winning the puck straight back to Coburn at the point. Coburn took a couple strides to his left and sent a shot on net that appeared to glance of the glove of the Sabres' Mike Grier. Ryan Miller couldn't react to the re-direction and the puck slipped between his pads with 18.5 seconds left.
The Sabres' second shot of the period came 9:08 into the period, meaning they went the final 10 minutes-plus without a shot. That included the period's only power play, when Briere was sent off for boarding Rob Niedermayer.
On the recovered-player front, Flyers defenseman Chris Pronger played 12 shifts totaling 6:37 -- all at even strength.
That's already more than the 4:33 he played in Game 6. He had one shot -- the game's first -- and three blocked shots.
For the Sabres, Derek Roy started the game -- his first since Dec. 23 -- and played 11 shifts totaling 6:54. He didn't have a shot, but went 2-for-5 on faceoffs.
Jochen Hecht, in his first game back from an upper-body injury, played eight shifts totaling 5:05. He was a minus-1, but had one hit and two takeaways.
The second period's about to get under way, so back to the game we go.

MOON and SOURCE CODE director Duncan Jones posted in twitter a couple of teases concerning the WARCRAFT film.
The first tweet was an image of the Epic Weapons "World of Warcraft: Doomhammer Replica". It was placed on Duncan's table by Stuart Fenegan.
Duncan Jones said: "Producer Liberty Stu put this on my table while I was writing the other day. Not sure if it was a gift or a threat!"
When Blizzplanet asked Duncan Jones whether he was writing scenes from the WARCRAFT film's script today, he responded: "Absolutely!"

1Guard me, O Ěl, for I have taken refuge in You.
2I have said to יהוה, "You are יהוה, I have no good beside You."
3As for the set-apart ones who are on the earth, They are the excellent ones, in whom is all my delight.
4The sorrows of those who run after another one are increased; I would not pour out their drink offerings of blood, Nor take up their names on my lips.
5יהוה is the portion of my inheritance and my cup; You uphold my lot.
6Boundary lines have fallen to me in pleasant places; Indeed, a good inheritance is mine.
7I bless יהוה who has given me counsel; My kidneys also instruct me in the nights.
8I have set יהוה always before me; Because He is at my right hand I am not shaken.
9Therefore my heart was glad, and my esteem rejoices; My flesh also dwells in safety.
10For You do not leave my being in the grave, Neither let Your Kind One see corruption.
11You show me the path of life; In Your presence is joy to satisfaction; At Your right hand are pleasures forever.

Interested in Romania?
We'll send you updates with the latest deals, reviews and articles for Romania each week.
You may also be interested in these hotels within five miles of Romania:
Topics include Dining Scene, For Foreign Visitors & more!
By all means be aware of these scam artists, expect 90% of them to make you a raw deal. Taxi drivers in Bucharest will try everything to squeeze every single cent out of you. The taxis are all Dacias which are Romanian cars and the quality is very much questionable, not talking about the safety. Consider yourself lucky if you can buckle up..
Look at the Km rate on the outside of the car and make sure that is actually what they are charging.
Avoid going into taxi in a crowded area during nightfall, that is where they pick up passengers where they say there is a special night rate or minimum three times the normal rate, which can go up to 10 times the normal rate. Just walk a little bit further and you will get a taxi with the normal rates.
If you don´t have local currency (Lei) they will try to scam you with the idea that it is illegal to use other currencies. That is BS of course, so do the calculations yourself and offer them what is fair.
If you are taking a taxi from the airport to the city, don´t use the taxis in the que just outside the terminal or all the guys who will approach you in the arrival hall offering you a ride into town. Walk just a little further down the road from the terminal and you´ll get a taxi with normal rates. Expect everyone to cheat you.
If you are a male traveller and alone the taxi drivers will offer you Romanian girls, most likely they are working for a prostitution rings.....

"What is 'effectiveness' in a family?" asks author Steven R. Covey. He promptly answers with four words: "a beautiful family culture." Building this culture is the primary theme of Covey's parenting guide, a manual based on concepts introduced in his blockbuster, The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People. Covey, a New-Age business guru and leadership authority, has consulted with the world's top corporate and political leaders, but closer to home he is the father of nine children. Here, Covey reinterprets each of his now famous "habits" (Habit 1: Be Proactive, Habit 4: Think Win-Win, Habit 6: Synergize) to apply to parenting and family-life issues. Covey suggests writing a family mission statement, implementing special family times and "one-on-ones," holding regular family meetings, and making the commitment to move from "me" to "we" as techniques to improve family effectiveness. Covey is a brilliant storyteller. By weaving the voices and anecdotes of his wife and children with his own inspirational and informative stories, exercises, and parables, he has created a book with something for all parents interested in enhancing the strength and beauty of their own families. --Ericka Lutz --This text refers to the Hardcover edition.
A personal-development guru, best-selling author, and father of nine, Covey has done it again. Here he espouses the same seven habits to live by as he did in The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People (S. & S., 1989), but this time the focus is strictly on the family. While his message is not new, it is written with sincerity and simplicity, and even the most career-driven individual should feel passionate about family after reading this book. Covey contends that all families get off track, mostly because they don't know where the track is headed. The remedy: develop a sense of destination. As in Effective People, each chapter here explains the significance of one of the "habits," illustrated by personal stories. Chapters conclude with practical suggestions for putting the habits into action. At times hokey, at times virtuous, always thoughtful and enlightening, this book is recommended for all libraries.

5.0 of 5 stars
The academics at Michigan were top notch. I received excellent mentoring from professors, and had the opportunity to interact with them both inside and outside the classroom. There are a number of small classes that allow students to focus on specific areas of the law that interest them. Seminars present a wonderful opportunity to engage in a personal give and take with professors and other students, and represent a very nice change of pace from the more traditional coursework. There is also the chance to conduct original research and independent study.
I lived "off campus," but just a block or two away from the law quad. Ann Arbor is a great place to be a student--safe, with lots of great restaurants, and, of course, Michigan football.
Michigan has excellent scholarship opportunities, including a full scholarship plus stipend (the Darrow Scholarship).

4.8 of 5 stars
Classes are taught by some of the smartest people you'll ever meet. Faculty always have open doors and frequently take students out to lunch or invite them over to their homes. As with other top schools, classes are usually more theoretical than practical, but practical skills can be honed in a number of different ways--Michigan offers many clinics, externships, etc. that all help students to get outside the classroom. Classes are not competitive AT ALL. Students happily share notes and outlines and there's never any hesitation to help a student in need. This goes back to the "playing nice with others" requirement that the Admissions Office is looking for. Everyone knows that they're smart, so there's no need to make a show of it. And everyone knows they're going to have a job when they graduate, so there's no pressure to be in the top x% of your class.
I can't imagine being happier anywhere else. Students at Michigan are surrounded by lovely people, which really goes a long way toward making law school as pleasant an experience as it can be.
Michigan is looking for the top students in the country, but they seem to focus heavily on finding students who will fit into the Michigan environment. Being insanely smart is important, but it's also important to play nice with others and to be someone that your fellow students will want to spend time with. As with any top school, responding to additional essay questions can benefit your application, when done well. Applicants should take every opportunity to show the file readers that they have a good personality to go along with their stellar GPA/LSAT score.
classes were wonderful. my professors were extremely engaging, and eager to involve students in class discussions as well as discussions outside of class. professors regularly enlisted students as research assistants, so if you were interested in a particular area of the law, it was easy to get more one-on-one experience working directly with the professor. there were a very broad array of classes to choose from, including the traditional law classes, as well as classes not so traditional (i.e. sexual violence and the law, blood feuds)
ann arbor is an amazing place to be a student. there is a ton of culture, things to do, different professional schools around (business school, med school, etc) so you're constantly engaging with other students outside of the law school. There are a ton of places to go out to eat, and the feel of the community is inspiring, you leave ann arbor with a real sense of pride and love for the university.
My professors were very intelligent, accomplished scholars who really engaged students in class and were willing to communicate with students outside of class as well. Several professors literally wrote the book on their class subject--the restatement or the most widely used treatise or a textbook. Michigan instills a real sense of collegiality among the students and the competition among them is minimal. I felt like I left Michigan with a stellar legal education.
Ann Abror is a great town to live in, no matter your marriage or family status. It is a great place for single students and equally great for married students and students with families. I felt very safe in Ann Arbor. The police would e-mail crime alerts anytime something happened in Ann Arbor and it was comforting how infrequent they were sent.
Both theory and practical; probably more theory than a lot of other places have (and most of us were happy with that). Class sizes generally small after the first year. Fairly collaborative/supportive atmosphere as law schools go. Faculty very approachable, supportive, willing to help.
Cost of living is low. Great down, great campus. Small town, so very safe. Easy access to a major airport. School facilities are all very good (and will be better after the ongoing construction, the inconveniences of which were well managed by the administration).
LSAT, a pretty standard application with a couple essays. No interviews.
You'd have to ask the dean of admissions, who actually runs it.
Quality of classes are great - good mix of theoretical and practical classes. Michigan offers a wide variety of classes taught by exceptional academics as well as practicing lawyers, some of whom fly in from Los Angeles or New York just to teach classes. Michigan prides itself on a collaborative environment: students strive to do their best, but always with a helpful hand. Whenever someone 's computer crashes, another helpful student is always there, offering outlines or class notes. Michigan's study abroad opportunities are exceptional. Students have the option of studying in London, Hamburg, and Tokyo, to name a few; as well as spend a semester doing an externship in Geneva, South Africa,, London, and more. If there isn't a program at a student's location of interest, students have the option of creating their own externship program. Michigan is extremely accommodating in this regard.
The Lawyers Club, Michigan Law's dorm system, is in the self-enclosed law quad and provides for beautiful view of the quad and a 2-minute walk to classes. The dining hall food gets old, but it is worth the food boredom to meet fellow law students from other sections you might otherwise not have the chance to meet. The Lawyers Club is an especially attractive option for 1Ls, as the convenience to classes and the library are incredible, and the opportunity to meet other students provides for a fun and enjoyable introductory year to law school.
Standard application process, though Michigan does invite students to submit additional short answers/essays to Michigan-tailored questions. In this way, the law school can gauge one's level of interest in Michigan and their fit for the law school.
The Socratic method is definitely still used in all 1L classes as well as in a few upper level classes. Most of my post 1L classes were smaller "seminar-style" classes which were less rigorous than a 1L class but in which the professors were able to bring out enough genuine participation without having to use the Socratic method, which was always much appreciated. I never found Michigan Law to be a competitive place, even during 1L. I was always a collaborative student that shared outlines and studied in groups for exams and found that there was lots of that going on around me. People don't talk about grades I found, except occasionally with friends.
Wonderful! The Lawyer's Club is a perfect place to spend 1L year; a decent cafeteria and great opportunity to make friends with many of your 1L classmates right away. It's also a stone's throw away from the library and classes so you have everything you need! Off campus rent and the cost of living in general in Ann Arbor is very reasonable; you can $600-800ish a month for a nice apartment walking distance to campus and less for a room in a house or anything farther than walking distance. Ann Arbor is a perfect college town so there's lots of great cheap food very close to the law school as well as all nightlife options. I always felt very safe on and off campus.
Michigan definitely seems to look at all the usual factors in admissions. I found that current students don't talk very much at all about what their LSAT scores or other qualifications were, but based on the few LSAT scores that I did know of among my friends, it seemed like Michigan has slightly broader range in scores among current students than other top schools. The application I remember being pretty straight forward, with the essay questions being fair. I didn't receive financial aid but know that a few of my friends with financial aid offers from other schools were able to easily talk about them with the admissions office and sometimes successfully negotiate a larger aid package than initially offered. I found out about my acceptance for fall semester quite early, which was nice, I remember earlier than most other schools I had applied to.
I was more impressed with Michigan Law than I imagined I would be. Everyone admitted to Michigan is extremely smart and capable. Our professors, with a few possible exceptions, are excellent teachers. The exceptions are highly intelligent but need to learn how to teach. All of our classes are based more on theory than practial study -- Criminal Law is the exception. The Socratic method is used in a mixed method -- usually a mixture of volunteering and cold calling. Professor JJ White is the only professor to use it in its purest form -- from my experience. The faculty is very impressive -- if they haven't written the case book they have a special and unique knowledge of that area of the law they teach. Michigan Law is not a cut throat school but it is highly competitive. For the most part people are nice to each other but sometimes people have done things to reflect their dislike of others. Its the exception but I'm glad I do not go to a more competitive school -- this is enough for me. I would say my biggest problem with Michigan Law (and probably lawyers in general) is the self-centeredness factor. Near, there is a belief that everyone is God's gift to the world. I think at other places each indivdual thinks they are are better gift than the person next to them. Its a difference and it helps but its still comfortable for me. I wish we were more humble. Workload is a lot but very managable.
The cost to live in the Lawyer's Club is a bit much and I was not pleased with the lack of help during move-in and move-out. Overall, I think the Lawyer's Club is a nice place to live but I definitely think its for the best that they are renovating the place. Facilities are great for the most part and I think they will get even better with the new additions.
I decided to finallly attend law school in July 2009 and wanted to apply for that year's cycle. Unfortunately, I had little done to achieve that end. No valid LSAT score, no letters of recommendation, no essays. I took a LSAT prep class through Kaplan and immediately began writing my personal statement. I wrote the diversity and Why Michigan supplemental one page essays. After taking the LSAT at the end of September 2009, I completed my application and submitted it in October 2009. I had a lot of help with the application process from an application adviser I had through my undergrad institution -- the University of Michigan. I was quickly accepted to Michigan State, Wayne State and U of D Mercy law school. I received full scholarship offers to Michigan State and U of D. I received at 50% offer to Wayne State. I decided to attend Michigan State, if I did not get into Michigan Law. Fortunately, I did and I get to stay blue!
Academics at Michigan are top notch. The professors and staff are outstanding, and true leaders in their respective fields, often having written the textbooks used in the class, whether the class is at Michigan or elsewhere around the country.
Quality of life is top notch. Ann Arbor is a fascinating city in the best state in the country.
Applicants must submit LSAT scores and recommendations, which can be done through LSAC/LSDAS. There are plenty of scholarship opportunities. There is not a separate application that must be initially filed for at least some of these opportunities, though one may be required at some point in the process.

Was McCain Right to Oppose Equal Pay For Women Bill?
John McCain opposed a bill today, which would have given women suffering pay discrimination more time to sue their employers. Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton both supported the bill, which was defeated by Senate Republicans.
McCain said:
I am all in favor of pay equity for women, but this kind of legislation, as is typical of what's being proposed by my friends on the other side of the aisle, opens us up to lawsuits for all kinds of problems. This is government playing a much, much greater role in the business of a private enterprise system.
McCain also said that what women really need is access to education and training, not access to the court system.
Do you agree with McCain? If employers are not susceptible to lawsuits, do they have any incentive to close the pay gap? If women can't realistically turn to the courts to stop pay discrimination, something that does happen in the US, where can they turn?
POPSUGAR, the #1 independent media and technology company for women. Where more than 75 million women go for original, inspirational content that feeds their passions and interests.
From the NYT The impact of the decision [in the Ledbetter case] on women may be somewhat limited by the availability of another federal law against sex discrimination in the workplace, the Equal Pay Act, which does not contain the 180-day requirement. Ms. Ledbetter initially included an Equal Pay Act complaint, but did not pursue it. That law has additional procedural hurdles and a low damage cap that excludes punitive damages. It does not cover discrimination on the basis of race or Title VII's other protected categories.So there was another way for her to seek redress but it required a little more footwork and would only entitle her to be paid back what she should have been paid rather than allow her to seek a large damages claim. Also interesting to note is that the $3,000,000 awarded her by a jury was reduced to $360,000 by the judge in that trial. And then Ginsburg's opinion:
Notably, the EPA provides no relief when the pay discrimination charged is based on race, religion, national origin, age, or disability. Thus,... the Court does not disarm female workers from achieving redress for unequal pay, but it does impede racial and other minorities from gaining similar relief.So, while this is being portrayed as a hit to women, it looks like it's actually more of a hit to minorities and other discrimination classes. The more I read about this, the more questions I have. I'm having a hard time finding real specifics about this bill. From what I gather, it was seeking to redefine a pay discrimination event as a paycheck rather than a pay decision. But, what does that mean...? Than you can only sue for damages seen on each paycheck in the charging period? Or, that you can sue for damages over the entire perceived discrimination period so long as you have at least one paycheck in the charging period? I'm becoming more torn in my opinion here. I do think you have some responsibility to mitigate the problem. I don't think it's appropriate to allow someone to sit in a job they feel is paying them unfairly for a decade or more because they know they can sue as soon as they leave. So, I can see why it makes sense to say, look if you are being discriminated against, get up and bring that to the attention of the courts immediately. At the same time, it seems to me that given the nature of pay - nobody knows anybody else's pay - and how slow and small pay discrimination can start off, Congress needs to improve it's initial Equal Pay Act. I don't think I support this particular improvement, but I would like to see another attempt.

About AFODENICThis loan is administered by AFODENIC, La Asociación para el Fomento al Desarrollo Nicaragua, a Kiva Field Partner based in Managua, Nicaragua. Founded in 1999, AFODENIC was created to promote the socio-economic and cultural development of sectors that are excluded from commercial banking. Integrating economic and human resources, AFODENIC offers affordable and adaptable financial services aimed at strengthening the family unit of their clients, who include students, producers, and micro- and small entrepreneurs from rural and urban areas.

Supporting a borrower through AFODENIC contributes to the pursuit of innovation in mitigating poverty in Nicaragua. Visit AFODENIC's partner page for more information.
Concurrent and Successive Loans
Our Field Partners often work with borrowers over a series of loans as the borrowers build credit, take out bigger loans, and expand their businesses. In order to make it easier for our Field Partners to post loans for borrowers who have been listed on Kiva before, we allow them to post successive and concurrent loans for their Kiva borrowers. This means that our Field Partners are able to post a borrower's second, third, etc., loan on Kiva without having to re-enter all of the borrower's information.
This borrower has been listed on Kiva before, so you'll see an updated loan description, as well as excerpts of the original descriptions from earlier loans. Most borrowers take out loans consecutively, meaning that they receive a second loan after having repaid the first. However, sometimes our Field Partners give out concurrent loans, allowing borrowers to take out one primary loan and a secondary "add-on" loan along with it. These "add-on" loans are typically smaller than the borrower's primary loan and serve a different purpose. Because Field Partners can now post loans as successive and concurrent loans, you will be able to track borrower progress over time and see the various ways a borrower is working with our Field Partners through funds from Kiva's lenders.

Honduras Standoff Heats Up
TEGUCIGALPA, Honduras -- Ousted Honduran President Manuel Zelaya tried -- and failed -- to fly to this Central American nation on Sunday to reclaim his post, as clashes at the airport here appeared to lead to the first two deaths in the country's deepening political crisis.
Accompanied by a small flotilla of other Latin leaders and journalists, Mr. Zelaya flew to Tegucigalpa in a jet loaned by the Venezuelan government, and even circled the airport to the cheers of his supporters below, but had to abandon the attempted landing after the military blocked the runway with vehicles. Mr. Zelaya diverted to Managua, Nicaragua, and conferred with President Daniel Ortega, then followed the rest of his entourage to El Salvador.
Shortly before Mr. Zelaya's plane appeared over Honduras, thousands of pro-Zelaya protesters began to clash with army troops guarding the Tegucigalpa airport. Protesters, some wearing bandannas to cover their face, threw rocks at soldiers and tried to break through one of the fences surrounding the runway. Troops responded by firing tear gas.
At least one soldier appeared to fire live ammunition into the crowd, some eyewitnesses said. A cameraman for the Al Jazeera network filmed a youth apparently shot dead, lying in the street. Another man was also fatally shot, according to news photographers at the scene. Responding to the violence, the government pushed up its nightly curfew to 6.30 p.m. from 10 p.m.
Mr. Zelaya, in a live interview with Venezuela's state-run Telesur network as his plane was circling the runway, said it was too dangerous to land. He said he would likely return to Washington in the coming days to seek a solution to the crisis. "If I had a parachute, I would jump," he said.
When told of the deadly violence below, Mr. Zelaya blasted the provisional government. "This is a barbarity what is happening in Honduras," he said, calling on President Barack Obama to take more drastic measures against the interim government, including economic measures, to show that the coup couldn't stand. "Otherwise, it's the death of democracy in the Americas," he said.
Honduras Timeline
Journal Community
Mr. Zelaya, who was forced by soldiers at gunpoint to leave the country last Sunday, flew from Washington to Tegucigalpa along with U.N. General Assembly President Miguel d'Escoto Brockmann, Nicaragua's former minister for foreign affairs. Traveling in another plane was Argentine President Cristina Kirchner, Ecuadorean President Rafael Correa and Paraguayan leader Fernando Lugo, followed by yet another plane carrying journalists.
The other two planes appeared to have gone directly to El Salvador, landing in San Salvador shortly after Mr. Zelaya tried to land in Honduras.
Meanwhile, Honduras's interim leaders accused neighboring Nicaragua of deploying troops along the border. Acting Honduran President Roberto Micheletti said the troop movements were small.
But he asked Mr. Ortega as well as Venezuelan President Hugo Chávez, who has threatened to depose Mr. Micheletti if Mr. Zelaya isn't restored to power, to stop from any more threatening actions or words.
U.S. officials said they didn't detect any major movements by Nicaragua's army. Nicaragua and Honduras were Cold War enemies in the 1980s, when Honduras was used as a staging ground for U.S.-backed Contra rebels fighting Mr. Ortega's Sandinista government. Mr. Ortega, who is one of Mr. Zelaya's strongest backers, reportedly said there had been no troop movement.
Even as regional tensions flared, Honduras's provisional government signaled it would be open to talks on the crisis, but it underlined that any solution couldn't include a return of Mr. Zelaya to his post.
Deputy Foreign Minister Martha Lorena Alvarado de Casco told a news conference that Honduras would welcome a delegation from the Organization of the American States, which on Saturday voted to suspend Honduras from the body.
"We are waiting with open arms for any commission that wants to come," said Ms. Alvarado.
But she added that the next delegation would have to come without preconditions, denigrating OAS Secretary General José Miguel Insulza's attempt to reach a solution on Saturday.
U.S. officials said they expected Mr. Zelaya to return to Washington on Monday for more meetings with OAS foreign ministers.
Indications are "that the de facto government is offering some sort of dialogue," said a U.S. official Sunday before the deadly violence broke out. "We think this is positive, and this will be our immediate focus."
Mr. Zelaya, the son of a wealthy farmer who ran for office as a centrist, polarized the country when his politics took a left turn and he aligned his government closely with Mr. Chávez.
Honduras joined Mr. Chávez's trade pact, received cut-rate oil from Venezuela, and embarked on an attempt to use referendums to rewrite the constitution that critics say would have let Mr. Zelaya extend his term.
The vote was declared illegal by Honduras's Supreme Court, but the president vowed to press on. Last Sunday, the day the referendum was set to take place, soldiers stormed the presidential residence and seized the leader. Congress later swore in Mr. Micheletti, the president of Congress.
Honduras's acting leaders have said repeatedly they would arrest Mr. Zelaya if he managed to return, and have accused him of multiple crimes, from treason to drug trafficking.
In his interview with the Telesur network, Mr. Zelaya said, "Today I feel like I have sufficient spiritual strength, blessed with the blood of Christ, to be able to arrive there and raise the crucifix."
While thousands of his supporters responded to Mr. Zelaya's call and turned up at the airport to show their support, large numbers of Hondurans also are adamant they don't want the president to return.
Honduras's influential Cardinal Oscar Rodríguez, the highest-ranking Roman Catholic Church official in the country, had gone on national television Saturday to urge the exiled president not to come back precisely out of fear of deadly violence.
"We think that a return to the country at this time could unleash a bloodbath in the country," he said. "To this day, no Honduran has died. Please think about this because afterwards it would be too late."
Cardinal Rodríguez also criticized Mr. Zelaya, throwing the church's weight behind the provisional government. "The day of your swearing in, you clearly quoted the three commandments of the sacred law of God: Not to lie, not to steal, and not to kill," said the cardinal.
