Please Help: The Over-seas University I Want To Study Through Doesn’t Offer Student Loans?

They are located in Australia and do not offer any financial aid for non-Australian residents.
They are not affiliated with FAFSA, or Sallie Mae.
Does anyone know of any private loan options I could try?

Biology Help. Speciation?

1)Sometimes, many related species evolve from a single species in a relatively short period of time. This often happens as the ancestral species has the opportunity to adapt to new environmental niches. Which of the following terms is NOT relevant to this process?
A)adaptive radiation
B)cladogenesis
C)divergent evolution
D)All of the terms are relevant.
2)Geographically isolated populations become separate species when
A) they have been separated for ten or more generations.
B)their markings become distinct.
C)they are no longer able to interbreed.
D)their skeletal structures become distinct.
3)According to the biological species concept, the termspecies has been defined as a group of organisms that canbreed with one another in a wild, free-ranging condition to producefertile offspring. For which of the following would this concept bemost difficult to apply?
A)lizards
B)plants
C)sponges
D)B and C
4)Speciation is the process by which new species arise. Speciation does not result from which of the following?
A)geographic isolation
B)reproductive isolation
C)genetic divergence
D)species interbreeding
5)Allopatric speciation is a form of speciation that occurs when populations become geographically isolated from one another. Geographic isolation may occur when
A)continents drift apart.
B)a mountain range separates formerly connected populations.
C)the range of a species is limited by loss of suitable habitat.
D)all of the above
6)Which of the following is an example of adaptive radiation?
A)the 13 different species of finches Darwin found on the Galapagos islands
B)the new species of rhea that was found on the opposite side of the river from the older species of rhea
C)the fact that dogs and coyotes can interbreed to produce fertile offspring
D)the observation that small populations have a greater opportunity for genetic changes
7) Under which of the following conditions does adaptive radiation occur?
A)A population invades an island that contains a number of unexploited niches and variation in environmental conditions.
B)Members of a population are isolated from other members of the population, either by geographic isolation or reproductive isolation.
C)A geographical barrier is removed between two populations that were originally one population.
D)A hybrid of two populations breeds successfully with a member of one of the parent populations.

Independent Contractor Agreement Question?

I’m a sales manager for independent authorized AT&T dealer for direct sales where I hire my sales reps as a 1099 and they get paid on a commission basis.
I have a rep who recently started with me who quit another office where he did the same thing. The problem is the previous company is stating he signed a contract where he could not worth with any AT&T affiliated companies for 1 year within a 100 mile radius or else they would sue him.
It seems like a complete scare tactic to avoid competition swiping up disgruntled workers. In my understanding the only legal way this could be done is if the company compensates the former worker for the time stating he cannot work for another company and if he does, then he is subjected to being taken to court in violation of the money compensated to him for agreeing to do so.
Does anyone have any knowledge on this? He’s a young smart guy and it seems he’s just being bullied.
Also, if it is wrong is there any legal action that can be taken against the other company?
Thanks in advance!

ELECTING A PERSON WITH NO COWS IN A COW TOWN; IF THE TOWN ONLY HAD 10,000 COWS NO WAY ? AFTER THERE IS 1 MILLION COWS MAYBE FUN HUH? It is usually difficult to practice anti-competitive practices unless the parties involved have significant market power or government backing. Monopolies and oligopolies are often accused of, and sometimes found guilty of, anti-competitive practices. For this reason, company mergers are often examined closely by government regulators to avoid reducing competition in an industry. Although anti-competitive practices often enrich those who practice them, they are generally believed to have a negative effect on the economy as a whole, and to disadvantage competing firms and consumers who are not able to avoid their effects, generating a significant social cost. For these reasons, most countries havecompetition laws to prevent anti-competitive practices, and government regulators to aid the enforcement of these laws. The argument that anti-competitive practices have a negative effect on the economy arises from the belief that a freely functioning efficient market economy, composed of many market participants each of which has limited market power, will not permit monopoly profits to be earned…and consequently prices to consumers will be lower, and if anything there will be a wider range of products supplied. Some people[who? ] believe that the realities of the marketplace are sometimes more complex than this or similar theories of competition would suggest. For example, oligopolistic firms may achieve economies of scale that would elude smaller firms. Again, very large firms, whether quasi-monopolies or oligopolies, may achieve levels of sophistication e.g. in business process and/or planning (that benefit end consumers and) that smaller firms would not easily attain. There are undoubtedly industries (e.g. airlines and pharmaceuticals) in which the levels of investment are so high that only extremely large firms that may be quasi-monopolies in some areas of their businesses can survive. Many governments regard these market niches as natural monopolies , and believe that the inability to allow full competition is balanced by government regulation . However, the companies in these niches tend to believe that they should avoid regulation, as they are entitled to their monopoly position by fiat. In some cases, anti-competitive behavior can be difficult to distinguish from competition. For instance, a distinction must be made between product bundling , which is a legal market strategy, and product tying , which violates anti-trust law . Some advocates of laissez-faire capitalism (such as Monetarists , some Neoclassical economists , and the heterodox economists of the Austrian school ) reject the term, seeing all “anti-competitive behavior” as forms of competition that benefit consumers.
