    To those of you who have taken the LSAT:

    You don't need a class. Buy prep books from Princeton Review/Kaplan (from amazon or your bookstore, etc.) to review their tips/tricks and then just practice practice practice. I think you can also get some actual previous LSATs from lsac.org to practice with. The LSAT is all about...

    Please keep this civil... African Americans vs. Africans

    African slavery was very different before the African slave trade came about. Nothing like chattel slavery. See, e.g. Olaudah Equiano's writings. And at first the Portuguese would capture their slaves and that likely would have continued if the Africans hadn't stopped the Europeans and...

    I can't seem to stand up for myself.

    The best thing to do, honestly, is to ignore it. You just won't be as fun to pick on if you don't give them a reaction. Will it continue for a few times after you start ignoring it? Yes. But it will stop after that. They'll move on to someone else that they can get a reaction out of. That's...

    Car Accident Legal Question

    For Car A to be liable its actions have to be the "but for" and "proximate cause." "But for Car A running into Car B, Car B wouldn't have hit Car C." That's probably true. Proximate cause is a little more complicated (see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Proximate_cause), but in my opinion, Car...

    So, my 6 yr old daughter is an EXCEPTIONAL swimmer.

    I was in a somewhat similar situation when I was around that age, but with gymnastics. If you were on the team, practices were 4 hours every day after school. Honestly I don't remember the decision making process very well, but I do remember that I had a lot of sway. What we ended up doing...
