Ben and Nathan break down the newly released U.S. News law school rankings, including an initial error that caused some confusion. They explain why slight shifts in rankings—like Cornell dropping out of the Top 14 or the new Top 17—shouldn't heavily influence your law school choice. Instead, they stress applying broadly and focusing on schools with the best scholarship offers and employment outcomes.A listener asks if retaking the LSAT is worth it after being rejected or waitlisted by all her top schools. In Pearls vs. Turds, they assess a tip about highlighting adverbs in reading comprehension, noting that understanding their role matters more than marking them up. Then, they offer guidance on handling unanswered questions after timed sections. And what's the deal with Pace Law School? Study with our Free PlanDownload our iOS appWatch Episode 502 on Youtube0:30 – The New U.S. News Rankings (and a Bit of Confusion)Ben and Nathan unpack the latest U.S. News Law School Rankings, which briefly included an incorrect list due to an initial error. A four-way tie at 14th place has turned the usual Top 14 into a Top 17. Their main point: minor ranking shifts shouldn't drive your decision. Focus instead on applying broadly and choosing the school that offers the best mix of scholarship money and job prospects.15:29 – Is It Time to Retake the LSAT?A listener waitlisted or rejected by all her top-choice schools asks for advice. Ben and Nathan agree she should retake the LSAT and reapply. They warn against accepting the steep “waitlist prices” schools often offer. Their advice: apply to at least 10 schools to maximize offers, but don't count long-shot “reach” schools in that total.26:36 – Pearls vs. Turds: Should You Highlight Adverbs?This week's tip suggests highlighting all adverbs in reading comprehension. While adverbs can shape a passage's meaning, the Demon still advises against highlighting. It can become a crutch that replaces real understanding. What matters is grasping their impact, not marking them. Verdict: a pearl—with some polishing.32:30 – What To Do With Unanswered QuestionsA student using the Demon method—focusing on one question at a time and ignoring the clock—asks what to do with leftover questions once time runs out. Ben and Nathan suggest reviewing the questions he attempted and missed first, then finishing the remaining ones untimed, treating them like regular drilling.35:34 – What's the Deal with Pace Law SchoolThis week's What's the Deal With is prompted by former FBI Director Kush Patel leaving Pace Law School off his official bio. Ben and Nathan highlight common concerns with schools like Pace, including conditional scholarships and limited employment outcomes. They also caution against being swayed by marketing claims like “number one ranked environmental law program” and encourage students to focus on scholarship offers and job prospects.1:02:51 - Word of the Week - StruthiousIf the reckless disregard standard... served merely as a substitute for willful misconduct—to prevent the defendant from "deliberately blinding himself to the consequences of his tortuous action"—section (b)(3) would be redundant since section (b)(2) already covers such struthious conduct.

SEASON 5 Episode 6# We loved talking with Nancy - she relays the most incredible experiences in a calm, matter of fact way. Her life journey has carried her from rational law and business practice through to the paranormal, psychic and mediumship, and the unexplainable beyond. Nancy is an attorney, specialised in securities litigation, who became a psychic detective, spiritual medium, remote viewer trained in military-style CRV and ARV, medical intuitive, and paranormal investigator. She works with law enforcement and victims' families on missing persons/homicide cases. Nancy teaches psychic development and mediumship classes, lectures on topics including psychic work, paranormal investigation, remote viewing, and ufology with a focus on comparative linguistic studies of alien languages. A former CBS radio show host of "Hot Leads Cold Cases," Nancy has appeared frequently on internet, radio and TV. She is a magna cum laude graduate of Princeton University and an honors published Law Review graduate of Pace Law School. Nancy also founded a local environmental group and sits on her local government.Nancy did not start out her life as a "psychic" - she became psychic through years of training! She is a firm believer that psychic ability is a natural human trait that most of us lose in a kind of mental trade-off as we develop our cognitive, linguistic, intellectual abilities. Consequently, as Nancy demonstrates in her book "Psychic Intuition," psychic ability can be re-learned by all of us. It is a trainable skill. The book takes the reader on a fascinating journey into the fields of neuroscience, psychology, language and psychic phenomena. The book is intended to bridge the gap between skeptics and believers.She became fascinated with the topic of alien communication after a major sighting of a football-field-sized UFO in 2011, and subsequently received a number of electronic-sounding communications over the phone along with her daughter who also witnessed the event. Her book "How to Talk to an Alien" represents a ground-breaking journey into the field of alien communication, spoken, written and telepathic based upon case historiesNancy's books Nancy's website : The Skeptical Psychic original music by: BabygreenFind & Support - Off World Link and your own non-physical potential... ko-fiSupport the Show.Support the Show.

Joining Miss Liz for teatime is Kirsten Kay from Link To Humanity. She will be sharing on her 21 Day Challenge and the in and out on how it all got started. Grab your tea and join us: May 28th 4PM PST/ 7PM EST Kirstyn was born and raised in southern California, where she spent her childhood growing up on an acre of land that her grandfather had made into an urban forest of a variety of fruit trees. Her parents and grandparents were all teachers and helped instill in her an appreciation and love for being outside, valuing a good education, and giving back to the community.Kirstyn was truly fortunate to be able to study, volunteer, and even work abroad, while traveling to many amazing places around the world. She volunteered with the Earthwatch Institute in Barbados conducting research and educating locals on sea turtle conservation issues. Kirstyn also studied abroad for 6 weeks while backpacking through Belize during her college years, while obtaining her B.A. in Environmental Studies.Kirstyn then attended Pace Law School in New York, studying to become an environmental lawyer, but unfortunately became extremely ill with an autoimmune disease that forced her to drop out of law school and figure out a new path forward (she understands firsthand that not everything goes as planned and she has extensive experience with overcoming real life struggles on a daily basis). After taking some time to try to heal, Kirstyn then took an opportunity to live and work abroad for over 6 years in the Cayman Islands for Jean-Michel Cousteau's Ambassadors of the Environment, based at The Ritz-Carlton, Grand Cayman. Working as an educational leader within a major luxury hotel corporation presented her with a unique opportunity to inspire adults, families, and children to appreciate their environment around them and to share with them a new perspective of the role they play in creating a better world. Kirstyn also continued to volunteer with some incredible organizations as she assisted with the Blue Iguana Recovery Program and the Sea Turtle Conservation Program with the Department of the Environment in the Cayman Islands Kirstyn then returned to California to be closer to her family, where she worked as an Educational Assessment Coordinator for Loma Linda University, School of Medicine and most recently enjoyed working as a Resource Educator for the Riverside-Corona Resource Conservation District. Kirstyn developed and taught educational programs and attended community outreach events, where she shared resources and helped to educate the local public about sustainable practices.While Kirstyn has always put her whole heart into every job she has ever had, she still felt that she was not quite fulfilling her own personal life's aspirations. When COVID hit, Kirstyn found that she could no longer hesitate in taking action and decided it was time to utilize her various experiences to fulfill her own purpose by creating Link to Humanity. This has been a project in the works for some time, but watching the world become further and further divided, she knew she could not wait any longer to share Link to Humanity with the world. Through Link to Humanity, Kirstyn hopes to empower people to reconnect to each other and to their environment, instilling wonder and inspiring them to take personal actions to create a positive impact in our world and a more sustainable future, by living with purpose. To better understand what Link to Humanity means to Kirstyn and how a special moment involving frogs as a little girl changed her life forever please watch her video Part 1: Intro to Link to Humanity. #linktohumanity #21dayschallenge #humanity #onecupatatime #makingadifference #misslizteatime #unitedstates

Norm opens the second segment by reminding listeners of the several cases that the Supreme Court is set to rule on as its session comes to a close. In particular, Norm highlights the Dobbs case and its imminent impact on Roe v. Wade. What of the leaks? Justice Clarence Thomas has stated publicly that the Court has become something less than a collegial exercise of power and that as a result the Court is beginning to appear like the rest of our country, divided on issues that are extremely difficult to overcome. Norm then welcomes Dr. Michael Goldstein, candidate for Congress in Connecitcut's 4th Congressional District (https://goldsteinforcongress.com/). Goldstein has lived in Connecticut for 35 years and has been an opthamologist for most of his life. Goldstein went to Pace Law School later in life and an active medical physician. He recounts going to law school at night after spending all day in medical practice. Norm asks what has attracted Goldstein to running for Congress. Goldstein shares his background in advocacy at the administrative level from his early career in medicine and his realizations of what may be broken in healthcare that mimics the larger symptoms of American life today. Goldstein discusses his belief that Connecticut is still struggling to recover in earnest from the recession of 2008, and how the local political structure has failed to take advantage of Connecticut's natural assets in pushing it forward into economic and social prosperity. Dr. Michael Goldstein is challenging the incumbent, Jim Himes. Goldstein answers Norms questions as to the Himes political strategy, Himes' long tenure in Congress, and what Goldstein would deploy as a political agenda to be favorable contrast to Himes' time in Congress. One of Dr. Goldstein's primary competencies is the regulatory environment attendant to healthcare, and so he thus motivated to examine patient choice as a way to remedy declining outcomes and rising costs.

Intergenerational conflict has been and will always be an issue in the workplace. But as legal careers grow longer (many attorneys are working well into their 60’s and even into their 70’s), these issues become more pronounced. Simply put, law firms are now home to multiple generations of attorneys. Similarly, with the explosion of digital communication in the last 2 decades, there are larger differences in how younger and older lawyers prefer to communicate. In this episode, Kathleen Brady will be talking about how to navigate these differences. If you are a millennial, what should you expect from your baby boomer bosses? Where is the potential for conflict in how you communicate with partners at your firm. If you are a senior partner, what do you need to know about the younger attorneys in your firm. How can you establish better communication channels with this younger generation. Kathleen Brady is Director of Coaching for Preferred Transition Resources in New York where she provides career transition counseling and outplacement coaching to attorneys. She has 25 years of experience as a certified career/life management coach, author, and educator. Through her work, Kathleen helps lawyers identify and integrate their personal and professional goals. Kathleen began her career counseling law students at two law schools and later, she was responsible for recruitment and professional development at several major law firms. Kathleen is a past president of the National Association for Law Placement and a founding member of the NALP Foundation for Research and Education.

“Lincoln: The Constitution and the Civil War,” a traveling exhibition which opened at the Pace Law Library examines how President Lincoln used the Constitution to confront three intertwined crises of the Civil War—the secession of Southern states, slavery and wartime civil liberties. To celebrate the opening of this prestigious exhibition at Pace Law School, the Pace Law Library hosted Assistant Dean Mark Shulman in “What Abraham Lincoln Can Teach Us about Confronting National Security Threats in the 21st Century.” "Lincoln: the Constitution and the Civil War," a traveling exhibition for libraries, was organized by the National Constitution Center and the American Library Association Public Programs Office. The traveling exhibition has been made possible by a major grant from the National Endowment for the Humanities. Lincoln: the Constitution and the Civil War is based on an exhibition of the same name developed by the National Constitution Center.
