How To Say The Weather In Spanish
Posted by Wynn Geary onSo lets learn a few weather possibilities.
Hace* firo = it's cold
Hace calor = it's hot
Hace sol = it's sunny
Have viento = it's windy
Está* nublando = it's cloudy
Está húmedo = it's humid
Está lloviendo = it's raining
Está nevando = it's snowing
Here are some flash cards for you to memorize
There is also temperature associated with weather, there is a basic template for telling time, it's easy as long as you know the numbers in spanish.
If you are just saying the temperature...
____ grados
for example,
40 degrees = cuarenta grados
20 degrees = veinte grados
etc.
If you don't quite have it yet don't worry heres an instructional video.
You are on vacation in Mexico and you are trying to plan which day to go on a hike, but all the weather stations
Are in Spanish, how do you know what day is going to be
nice enough to go on your hike.
Scotus Blog Case Judulang v. Holder
Posted by Rafiq Robinson in AMGOV-003 onThe constitutional question that comes into play here is one that it seems like a lot of people in the court and outside of the court are confused about and that is the tenth amendment. The tenth amendment is the amendment that so closely deals with immigration but when I researched more the constitution never discusses immigration it brings in the concept of immigration. Also to clarify the tenth says that this would be a state problem to deal with so I don't entirely know why this case is being challenged on the grounds of the constitution.
The main argument that Judulang had was that before the ruling by the BIA in 2005 in Matter of Blake and Matter of Brieva-Perez, he or any lawful permanent resident could apply for relief for any conviction even one such as voluntary manslaughter. He tried to get the law rationally reviewed under the Equal Protection clause but could not. He also says that when they ruled and change their practices it was contradictory and represents a retroactive change in the law.
The only real arguments that the U.S. made in this case were that section 212© relief is only available when there is a similarity between the reason they are being deported and the reason they are being removed. They also tried to invalidate his case against the board showing a change in law and that it should be reviewed.
I am almost sure that this case will go in favor Judulang because the U.S. has minimal success in convincing the supreme court justices of anything and also the supreme justices seem to ask questions that seem look in favor of Judulang.

Why I Write
Posted by William Johnson in ENG3-007 onOr to reveal the story of another?
I write to show the fantasy
And the writing on the walls
The stories of the bloodstained hands
And the bullets flying through castle walls
I write to show the truth
And see through murky lies
Recalling the horrors of a war
And the bullets that grazed my head.
The collapse of the U.S and the U.S.S.R. alike
The fall of the Berlin Wall to the great Stock Market Crash
And even the plague and famine
That spread across all lands.
I write to show the story
Of the conquered and the desolate
The stories of the many
While I live on through them
Antigone Feature Article
Posted by Rick Kinard in ISMS-004 on“Creon’s ideas may go against the ethics of the society. It may
even go against some of the bases in our religion. The simple fact it that Creon
is king and has the right idea about how kingdom should be run.” – Rich Man
“Creon has taken it upon
himself to go against the gods those who’s power and authority surpass his own.
Showing such an act of dishonor to the gods will bring about their wrath
on the city.” – Peasant
“Antigone took a stand by burying the body of Polynieces
when everyone else fold under the Kings commands. Honestly in a day or two I
myself was planning to go out a burry a few bodies. If no other took up the
job, I feel I would as if it were my duty to.” – Anonymous

Pacific Operators Offshore, LLP v. Valladolid
Posted by Douglas Wallace in AMGOV-004 onIn the case the Pacific Operations attorney had some key points and highlighting key components of the case. He emphasized the wording of the OCSLA workers compensation act which states that the accident was to happened on the OCS. The rest of the speakers basically try to dump off the compensation to different acts.
My opinion is, this case shouldn't be a case. OCSLA is pretty clear and simple. However the way that all the Justice are handling it, it makes it seem like Pacific Operations will lose. They seem to be over-sensitive and they just shoot down what the speakers say by bringing up irrelevant points.

Quater to SPANISH
Posted by Naihema Powell in SP1-007 onHalf-Past Learning In Spanish!
Telling time is an important part of life, if you
go to Peru, or any other Spanish speaking country and say “What time is it”
they will look at you like you have 3 heads. You need to say;
·
¿Qué hora es? à ((Ke - Orra – ssss))
this means What time is it.
·
The appropriate response would be Son Las à It is followed my
the time.
|
Son las dos Son las tres Son las cuatro Son las cinco Son las sies Son las siete Son las ocho Son las nueve Son las diez Son las once |
It is 2 o’clock It it 3 o’clock It is 4 o’clock It is 5 o’clock It is 6 o’clock It is 7 o’clock It is 8 o’clock It is 9 o’clock It is 10 o’clock It is 11 o’clock |
When it is 12 o’clock we don’t say Son las doce,
even thought that IS an option. A lot of Spanish speaking people just use
medianoché or medîodia. Medianoché for 12AM and medîodia for 12AM.
|
Media Cuarto menos |
Half an hour A quarter minus |
When you see any of the previous ^^^ in a time
telling sentence like the following:
Son las media ocho. It means à It is 8 thirty
Son las nueve menos cuarto à It is minus 15 of
nine. Meaning is 8:45.
If you see cuarto in a time telling sentence
WITHOUT menos in front of it that just means its 15 minutes after ___Blank___
Ex: Son las cuatro y cuarto à It is 4:15
NOTE: how 4 is CUATRO and a quarter is CUARTO ..do not confuse to two!
CompuCredit Corp. v. Greenwood - Shelby Harcher
Posted by Shelby Harcher in AMGOV-004 onThe main issue in this case is that, under the CROA, consumers are allowed to sue, but forced arbitration was usually used. The National Senior Citizens Law Center and AARP claim that CROA is protecting it's costumers and that they know that they can sue and take the steps necessary to do so and that the document itself prevents companies from being able to force arbitration. However, others feel differently. Credit repair scams happen all the time. High fees are usually charged and arbitration is usually used. I'm not sure what's going to happen with this case, but I believe that companies are going to be looked after more, making sure that they follow the CROA and don't force arbitration. Under the Constitution, it states that all people have the right to a jury of their peers, and being forced to have an arbitrary, doesn't seem fair at all. I believe that the Supreme Court will rule in the favor of the consumers.
