Top 10 Most Expensive Colleges of 2012

Posted by Unknown 0 komentar
When looking back at the previous year we see it was packed tight with many world-changing and country-changing events. Several dictators were removed from power, troops were pulled out of a 9-year war, and—here at home—public venues all over the country were inhabited by Occupy Wall Street protestors. Among those protestors sprung a separate but related group, called the Occupy Student Debt campaign. This group of current, former, and would-be students is upset over the crippling high student loan costs imprisoning the younger generations. Heartbreaking student loan debt stories are being uploaded to the protestor’s websites every day and threats of a collective default still loom over our financial system’s head. Perhaps it’s time to look at the cost of colleges and try to take a step in these debtor’s shoes.

 
Costs Keep Rising

In 2007, five years ago, only one college had a total annual cost of over $50,000. Today, student loans of $50,000 or more are required for 111 individual colleges—19 of which are over $55,000.

According to Campus Grotto, a national college news website, Sarah Lawrence College of New York tops the charts for the most expensive college in the country. Sarah Lawrence College, a liberal arts college, has topped the lists for the most expensive college for four years in a row now. At nearly $60,000 a year, students may find their debts difficult to pay off considering liberal arts degrees yield an average salary of $43,609 according to a study done by the National Association of Colleges and Employers.

The most expensive colleges for the 2011-2012 undergraduate school year according to Campus Grotto’s list are:


College

Cost

1.       Sarah Lawrence College

$59,170

2.       New York University

$56,787

3.       Columbia University

$56,310

4.       Harvey Mudd College

$55,998

5.       Eugene Land College

$55,890

6.       Claremont McKenna College

$55,865

7.       Wesleyan University

$55,706

8.       Bard College

$55,617

9.       Barnard College

$55,566

10.   Trinity College (CT)

$55,450

At $50,000 a year for undergraduate studies, students are looking at paying the equivalent of a mortgage in student loan debt by the time their Bachelor’s is acquired.

How is Price Determined?

These prices are composed of three factors: tuition, related fees, and room and board.

Tuition is the cost schools require students to pay as an admission’s cost. Some states, such as California, have no tuition (technically), but that’s often offset that with higher fees.

Related fees include the extra costs for facilities, technology centers, and lab materials. Certain majors and individual courses often carry additional charges depending on the materials and facilities needed in order to teach the necessary coursework.

Room and board plays a huge part in the cost of college and is often unrelated to the college itself, but instead relies on the location of the institution. For instance, New York University is ranked 91st in tuition, but when room and board is factored in to the equation, it jumps to the second most expensive college in the nation.

Top 10 Most Expensive Shoes in the World 2011

Posted by Unknown 0 komentar
It was no coincidence that most of the world’s most expensive luxury products hit the market within the last 10 years. It was a time of unprecedented growth and wealth building.
But over the last few months, the global economy meltdown has hit everyone like a gory car accident.
Even the Donald Trumps of the world are losing their shirts… and perhaps they’ll be looking to unload their shoes too, if they own any of these symbols of conspicuous consumption.

Top 10 World’s Most Expensive Shoes

#9: Diamond-Encrusted Custom Nikes

Price tag: $50,000

Specs: 11 carats of chocolate-colored diamonds outline the “swooshes” on a pair of Nike “So Cal” Air Force 1 “Supreme Max” runners
#9′s Claim to Shoe Fame: One of the only two menswear shoes represented in the top 10. They were purchased by Outkast’s Antwan “Big Boi” Patton.
The Nike limited editions were customized with the fancy colored diamonds by Laced Up owner Ernel Dawkins and C Couture boutique owner Rita Patel.

#8: Slippers Worn by Indian Prince

Price tag: $160,000

Specs: Rare slippers encrusted with rubies and diamonds were once worn by the Indian prince Nizam Sikandar Jah of Hyderabad in the 18th century.
#8′s Claim to Shoe Fame: In January 2006, the jeweled slippers were stolen from the Bata Shoe Museum in Toronto, Canada.
A few days later they were recovered thanks to an anonymous tipster. Experts examined the shoes and believe no damage had been done  “though there is evidence the shoes have been worn”. A 35 year old man was arrested in connection to the robbery.

#7: Stuart Weitzman’s “Diamond Dream” Stilettos

Price tag: $500,000

Specs: Shoe designer Stuart Weitzman and jeweler Kwiat partnered to create these stilettos adorned with 1,420 brilliant-cut Kwiat colorless diamonds weighing over 30 carats and set in platinum.
#7′s Claim to Shoe Fame: Anika Noni Rose, aka “the other one” in Dreamgirls, got her chance to shine at the Oscars in 2007 when she wore Stuart Weitzman’s “Diamond Dream” strappy sandals on the red carpet.

One pair is in the Smithsonian; another was stolen in 2005 from the Judy Garland Museum and has yet to be recovered.
The last pair to come up for sale was in 2000, when it was sold at auction by Christie’s for $666,000.

#5: Stuart Weitzman “Retro Rose” Pumps

diablocody1mshoesc.jpgSpecs: Two diamond roses, fixed to 1940s-style dusty gold high heels. More than 1,800 Kwiat diamonds weighing 100 carats were used to make the roses.
#5′s Claim to Shoe Fame: Every year, fashion footwear king Stuart Weitzman picks a new and rising star, a “Hollywood Cinderella”, to wear his latest multi-million dollar shoes to the Oscars.
In 2008, he selected screenwriter Diablo Cody to wear the $1M heels known as the “Retro Rose” down the Academy Awards red carpet.
Ms. Cody initially agreed to wear them but later backed out after critics questioned her “Indie”, anti-Hollywood cred for participating in a glamorous publicity stunt. She opted to wear an unnamed brand instead.

Accompanied by three bodyguards, the shoes paled in comparison with the $27 million dollar necklace she also wore to the awards show.

#3′s Claim to Shoe Fame: In 2003 Stuart Weitzman created the “Ruby Slippers” in anticipation of another breakthrough starlet wearing them to that year’s Academy Awards. His inspiration was the original ruby slippers worn by Judy Garland as Dorothy, otherwise known as #6 in our list.
However Mr. Weitzman ended up cancelling his shoe’s appearance. His spokesperson Jane Weitzman stated…”we pulled the ruby shoes we were planning to show off at the Oscars out of respect for those fighting in Iraq.”

The most often used letters in the English language

Posted by Unknown 0 komentar
An alphabet is a standard set of letters—basic written symbols or graphemes—each of which represents a phoneme in a spoken language, either as it exists now or as it was in the past. There are other systems, such as logographies, in which each character represents a word, morpheme, or semantic unit, and syllabaries, in which each character represents a syllable. Alphabets are classified according to how they indicate vowels:

 This depends, to a great extent, on the sample size and the type of text that is analyzed. Here is one result:
