article: " With respect to court opinions, obiter dicta are the thoughts or observations stated in a case that are not directly relevant to the outcome of the case. While these thoughts may not pertain to the case at hand, they do have the potential to inform or guide future court decisions. decision-making. Obiter dicta is also regularly referred to as simply "dicta." Obiter dicta can guide, inform, or enlighten future case reasoning, but they are not binding. This means that a future court does not have to follow any rule or observation made as obiter dicta in a previous court case. Rather, a court only need follow the rule of the case. Given that obiter dicta do not form a part of the reasoning of the case, subsequent courts can dismiss obiter dicta outright. Nevertheless, some obiter dicta have proven to be very influential in subsequent cases. Another commonly used term for obiter dicta is persuasive authority. Obiter dicta are not binding or mandatory authority for a court facing a similar case in the future. However, they can be used as persuasive authority or support for one's opinion on whatever matter they address. Whether or not a court will rely on obiter dicta in reaching a future decision is unknown. While some judges may utilize it to support a point or ruling, other judges may disregard it altogether. There is no requirement that judges use or even consider obiter dicta. Some of the more commonly used types of obiter dicta include "what if" scenarios, "we are leaving this issue open for the future" statements, analogies, illustrations, and hypotheticals. Courts may even use obiter dicta to make a very pedantic point, such as whether it is proper to use the term "attorney's fees" or "attorneys' fees."

Plug the remaining end of the cable into the charging port. Wait for the charging light to appear. Troubleshoot a failure to charge."
article: The cable that came with your Kindle is the cable you'll use to charge it. The USB end is the larger side of the cable, and resembles a rectangular connector. The other end of the cablethat is, the smaller sideis referred to as a "microUSB" connector, and it is oval in shape. The USB end of the cable should plug into one of the rectangular ports on your computer. Keep in mind that USB connections only fit one way, so if the cable's end doesn't fit into your computer's USB port, rotate it 180 degrees and try again. Not all USB ports support charging. If this doesn't end up charging your Kindle, you'll need to try a different USB port. You can also use the USB port on a power strip if you have one. The Kindle's charging port is at the bottom of the Kindle's housing; you should see a small, oval-ish port there. This end should fit both ways into the oval port at the bottom of the Kindle. Once your Kindle begins charging, an amber light will appear at the bottom of the Kindle, and a lightning bolt icon will appear in the battery meter that's in the top-right corner of the Kindle's screen. The light will turn green when your Kindle is fully charged. If the light doesn't come on after a few seconds, your Kindle isn't charging. There are a couple of potential fixes you can try: Try using a different USB port to see if you accidentally picked one that can't charge your Kindle. Force-restart your Kindle by holding down the Power button for 20 to 30 seconds.

Create a list of questions for your meeting. Compose a personal statement. Bring a pen, notepad, and updated resume to your meeting. Dress professionally."

If you meet someone with a good job in the industry you're interested in, or you have an acquaintance or manager at the firm where you're interning, you might want to conduct an informational meeting with them. An informational meetingalso known as an informational interviewis a conversation with a reference or acquaintance who can serve as a professional resource for you. You get to ask the person about their experience, their field, and any advice they might have for candidates trying to get into the field. When considering who to ask for an interview or whether or not to ask a specific person, try jotting down what you want to accomplish and what kind of information you're looking for. For example, are you interested mainly in strategic advice for application materials, or do you just want some general information about the field in order to determine your interest in a career in the industry? Answering these kinds of questions will help you determine who will be a good interviewee and whether or not a specific candidate will be useful to you. When asking a contact or acquaintance for an informational interview, you should mention the phrase 'informational meeting' or 'informational interview' explicitly. If you don't request this specifically, the person might show up expecting informal drinks or a friendly chat and then feel miffed or caught off-guard when you start asking serious questions. For example, if you've met someone at a party or networking event and chatted for a bit, say something like, "I have a lot of questions about the field and your experience in itwould you mind getting coffee some time and having an informational meeting with me?" If you don't have the chance to ask them in person, you can make contact via email or telephone. Just make sure to be concise and polite so that they don't feel burdened by the request. Though the person giving you an informational meeting might be glad to help you, they're still doing you a favor by giving you some time out of their work day. This means that you should make the meeting as convenient for them as possible, taking up no more of their time than 15-30 minutes. Check with your interviewee as to what time of dayfor example, during lunch break or after workand what kind of venuefor example, a coffee shop or their officethey prefer. You should also let them know that, while an in-person meeting would be great, a telephone or online conversation is also perfectly fine. This consideration shows that you're respectful of their time and happy to accept any modicum of help they're willing to dole out. Once you've set up a meeting with your contact, research their background as best you can. This will help you figure out how to approach them, as well as what information they can give you. For example, find out what career path they've followed and what their main projects and roles are currently. Asking specific questions will also show your interest and enthusiasm. Over-the-top flattery should be avoided, but something like, "My old manager said she learned so much about turning your passion project into a viable companyhow did you get started in the first place?" can grease the wheels and make your interviewee more likely to go the extra mile to help you out. Once you've identified your goals, draft a plan for the meeting that will accomplish these goals. Write down the questions you want to ask and put them in a strategic order. Warm up with general questions that show your curiosity, such as, "How did you get started in this field?" and "What kind of projects are you working on at the moment?" From there, move on to more specific questions, such as, "What qualifications or skills should I highlight in my application?" or "How should I prepare for an upcoming interview I have scheduled?" You don't have to read off of this agenda in the meeting if it makes you feel awkward, but you should bring it with you to check periodically and make sure that you don't skip anything you'd wanted to ask. Perhaps even more than seeking to glean information and advice from an informational meeting, you're trying to make a positive impression on your interviewee. You want to give your contact a brief summary of who you are, what makes you unique, and what you're interested in. This will make it more likely that they'll remember you later on if a relevant vacancy at their firm opens up or they meet someone who could be useful to you. In order to do this effectively, jot down a paragraph or a list of points about yourself that you can mention at an appropriate time during the meeting. This will help make your impression more memorable, as well as prepare you with answers to any questions your interviewee poses to you. One of the most important things you should do at an informational meeting is express interest in the person's advice and expertise. You can do this by coming prepared with pen and paper and taking notes during the meeting, as well as having an updated resume handy in case the person asks for it. These preparatory measures indicate that you're serious about the meeting at hand, respectful of the other's expertise, and professional about handling and processing new information. You probably don't need to wear a business suitunless you're meeting the contact at their formal, corporate officeto an informational interview, but you should wear something smart and put-together in any case. A sleek day-dress or well-pressed button-up and trousers will signal to your interviewee that you've got your life together and that you care about making a good impression. Avoid jeans, t-shirts, and scuffed sneakers in particular, as these garments can make it seem like you didn't even bother to interrupt your normal routine when getting ready to meet the contact.
