Ps the signup sheet isnt so bad if you do weights too, just plan to workout for half an hour beforehand. Do you know how far around that track is? I've heard both .1 miles and .25 miles

evilweasel posted:Do you know how far around that track is? I've heard both .1 miles and .25 miles Roughly 1/10th of a mile (160m). Anyone that says a quarter-mile (aka full track length) is an idiot and thinks they run a lot faster than they actually do. Ok maybe not an idiot since they go there, but very bad at math and exercise. (Insert bad-at-math-law-joke) TheBestDeception fucked around with this message at 00:36 on Sep 16, 2010 |

Saw a '10 grad selling Nooks at Barnes and Noble. Don't feel quite as bad about my small firm job paying less than half of the big firm salary. It's amazing how many people I get to correct when they congratulate me on my job by saying "At least you won't work nearly as many hours."

I taught Facebook and privacy there last year, teaching some janus-faced precedent tomorrow morning. Just finished making my presentation, which is basically all cribbed from pages 70-76 of Bramble Bush and Mensch's chapter on the history of mainstream legal thought from The Politics of Law

Was doing a favour for a friend of mine who was representing another friend in an employment case which had gone to trial. He was basically representing the guy pro bono and the dude wouldn't have been able to afford anyone else. His career has been entirely as a commercial solicitor. I don't think he's seen the inside of a courtroom since he was admitted. Anyway, I was just helping him out with some of the legal stuff, and giving advice on how to cross, and sat in with him for the first day (he was giving his EIC). Highlights included: - The first day he objects to the opposing barrister for asking leading questions during cross-examination. I was sitting next to him taking notes and felt like sinking into the ground. - He was repeatedly pulled up by the presiding Commissioner (it was a commission, not a court) for badgering witnesses, arguing with witnesses, asking irrelevant questions and repeatedly interrupting witnesses. Surprisingly, I think the Commissioner was leaning to us by the end of the trial. Sympathy maybe?

yesss my 1st edition Hints on the Trial of a lawsuit arrived the entire section on female witnesses is better than I imagined "be careful of the quiet, modest female witness, for this is the type that is usually 'loaded if goaded'" The section on juries wasn't as racist or classist as I expected - I assume naturally there were simply no blacks to worry about in jury pools evilweasel fucked around with this message at 03:35 on Sep 17, 2010 |

Good thing I took this thread's advice and scheduled all pass/fail or zero attendance policy! grrr...how were you able to determine the attendance policies in advance? Since none of my professors have taught the same course from one year to the next, it's been impossible to tell. Regardless, thanks for reminding me to preorder...attendance policy or not, I'm going to be pretty scarce.

I would not want to get arrested for fraud in China, even for a nice dinner and some cash.
