Education & Reference - 27 January 2007

Thailand's Transport Minsiter has admitted that some airlines were afraid to use Bangkok's new Suvarnabhumi Airport after several flights scheduled to land were diverted to another airport, reported yesterday.
Debris was found on a runway and the diversions came amid rising concern about the condition of taxiways on which scores of cracks have been found.
"This has started to affect the country's image and some airlines are afraid to use Suvarnabhumi due to safety fears," said Transport Minsiter Theera Haocharoen as she inspected the affected taxiways.
This Nation said this was the first time an official had publicly acknowledged the problem of the damaged taxiways.
Since opening last September, the airport has been dogged by operational problem including a faulty baggage handling system and slow check-in services.

I graduated from H.S. in 2001, since then I have been in and out college. I have always wanted to go to law school but I didn't want to spend alot of time or money on school. I started taking classes for nursing. Well I came to my senses and decided to just focus on finishing school and then applying to law school. My problem is that now I have about 2 1/2 more years of undergrad to bring up my GPA and take the LSAT. Would it matter that I didn't do so well in the first two years of undergrad? I'm currently 24 now and I'm going back to school this coming fall. I want to take about 16 credit hours and come out with a really high GPA. Is this even possible. I'm thinking about majoring in business with a minor in finance or major in political science with a minor in criminal justice. Any thoughts on how to better my chances of getting into a good law school. I'm in NC now and if I don't pull up my GPA or get a high LSAT score, then I have to go to North Carolina Central University.

Hi everyone,i live in Australia but English is not my first language.Hope any aussie friend could help me with this.
I was watching an actress interviewed by some guy.

"Why did you chose to leave that role?You were so successful in playing that in the past."The interviewer asked.

"I don't know.I just feel like a bit of a sharleton(?)."The actress said.

I am really confused.I've look it up in the dictionary,but apparently there's no such word called "sharleton".I know I probably spell it wrong.But how does this word really spell and what exactly does it
mean??

I've applied but have heard mixed reviews, with some people saying there are disruptive students there. I would like to attend as it's quite near me, and I'm married and want to stay at home to keep the fees down, and not leave my husband! Any comments most welcome.

when i check the pronunciation of words in dictionaries , the letter "S" behaves so strangely that it is often pronounced as "Z".
for example, it is pronounced as "Z" in the words "because" and "please" , "cause", "is", "was", etc
for "course", "class", it is "S".

are there any general rules on determining in what cases it is going to be "Z" ?

if possible, please give me some rules on when to pronounce it as "Z" when the letter is used to represent plural.
