The next step toward the law school came with a groundbreaking ceremony at the site – the corner of 15th and Acklen avenues – and the announcement that it will be called the Randall and Sadie Baskin Center. “This is the single largest commitment that I have ever made in my life,” said Randall Baskin, Brentwood-based founder of the Conti- nental Life Insurance Co. He and his wife are longtime friends of Belmont, and Randall Baskin has served on the board of trustees. The Baskins provided a $7-million leadership grant that will go toward the program and the building, which is expected to cost $32 million and will open in fall 2012. The first students will begin in Fall 2011 and will use other classrooms at Belmont while the Baskin Center is completed. Projections are for the school to have 100 students to start in 2011. Students will be added each year to reach a capacity of about 350. “They successfully will be creating a new law school in this state for the first time in many, many years,” Nashville Mayor Karl Dean said at the groundbreaking ceremony. “It is a very positive step for Nashville.” The city is also home to Vanderbilt University Law School, estab- lished in 1874, and Nashville School of Law, established in 1911. For the moment though, the school will not try to compete with other law schools. “Being a new school, we’ll have to work our way up the system,” Belmont College of Law Dean Jeffrey Kinsler said. “Nashville was a big draw for the law school because of a better lifestyle than bigger, crowded cities,” Kinsler said. “The Christian mission [of Belmont] has also been a plus.” The law school’s outreach for diversity shows 20 percent racial and ethnic minorities in admissions to date. Current admissions data also shows that 60 percent are female. Kinsler said he also expects signifi- PhotoS by Dulce torreS cant faculty diversity. “We don’t typically get international students but we will have Groundbreaking for the Randall and American diversity,” he said.

  • Idioms-And-Expressions.Pdf
    Idioms and Expressions by David Holmes A method for learning and remembering idioms and expressions I wrote this model as a teaching device during the time I was working in Bangkok, Thai- land, as a legal editor and language consultant, with one of the Big Four Legal and Tax companies, KPMG (during my afternoon job) after teaching at the university. When I had no legal documents to edit and no individual advising to do (which was quite frequently) I would sit at my desk, (like some old character out of a Charles Dickens’ novel) and prepare language materials to be used for helping professionals who had learned English as a second language—for even up to fifteen years in school—but who were still unable to follow a movie in English, understand the World News on TV, or converse in a colloquial style, because they’d never had a chance to hear and learn com- mon, everyday expressions such as, “It’s a done deal!” or “Drop whatever you’re doing.” Because misunderstandings of such idioms and expressions frequently caused miscom- munication between our management teams and foreign clients, I was asked to try to as- sist. I am happy to be able to share the materials that follow, such as they are, in the hope that they may be of some use and benefit to others. The simple teaching device I used was three-fold: 1. Make a note of an idiom/expression 2. Define and explain it in understandable words (including synonyms.) 3. Give at least three sample sentences to illustrate how the expression is used in context.

  • The Complete Stories
    The Complete Stories by Franz Kafka a.b.e-book v3.0 / Notes at the end Back Cover : "An important book, valuable in itself and absolutely fascinating. The stories are dreamlike, allegorical, symbolic, parabolic, grotesque, ritualistic, nasty, lucent, extremely personal, ghoulishly detached, exquisitely comic. numinous and prophetic." -- New York Times "The Complete Stories is an encyclopedia of our insecurities and our brave attempts to oppose them." -- Anatole Broyard Franz Kafka wrote continuously and furiously throughout his short and intensely lived life, but only allowed a fraction of his work to be published during his lifetime. Shortly before his death at the age of forty, he instructed Max Brod, his friend and literary executor, to burn all his remaining works of fiction. Fortunately, Brod disobeyed. Page 1 The Complete Stories brings together all of Kafka's stories, from the classic tales such as "The Metamorphosis," "In the Penal Colony" and "The Hunger Artist" to less-known, shorter pieces and fragments Brod released after Kafka's death; with the exception of his three novels, the whole of Kafka's narrative work is included in this volume. The remarkable depth and breadth of his brilliant and probing imagination become even more evident when these stories are seen as a whole. This edition also features a fascinating introduction by John Updike, a chronology of Kafka's life, and a selected bibliography of critical writings about Kafka.
