A quick definition of Maine:

Maine has laws to control unwanted messages and calls. These laws include rules for commercial emails and spam, telemarketing and phone solicitation, and unsolicited fax advertisements. Maine also has a "Do Not Call" registry where people can sign up to avoid telemarketing calls. Additionally, there are laws against unfair trade practices.

A more thorough explanation:

Definition: Maine has several laws and regulations in place to control unwanted solicitation and spam across various forms of communication. These include:

  • Commercial Email and Spam: The 2003 Act to Control Internet 'Spam' prohibits the sending of unsolicited commercial emails, and is codified at Maine Revised Statutes, Title 10, Part 3, Chapter 224 (§ 1497).
  • Telemarketing & Telephonic Anti-Solicitation: Maine has several laws in place to regulate telemarketing, including prohibitions on automated telephone solicitation (codified at Maine Revised Statutes, Title 10, Part 3, Chapter 225 (§ 1498)), and number blocking by telemarketers (codified at Maine Revised Statutes, Title 10, Part 3, Chapter 225 (§ 1499-A)). Maine also maintains a "Do Not Call" Registry to allow residents to opt out of telemarketing calls (codified at Maine Revised Statutes, Title 10, Part 3, Chapter 225 (§ 1499-B)).
  • Faxes, Texts, and Other Media Anti-Solicitation: Maine prohibits the sending of unsolicited fax advertisements (codified at Maine Revised Statutes, Title 10, Part 3, Chapter 223 (§ 1496)).
  • Unlawful Trade Practices: Maine's Unfair Trade Practices Act (codified at Maine Revised Statutes, Title 5, Part 1, Chapter 10 (§§ 205A - 214)) prohibits a wide range of deceptive and unfair business practices, including those related to solicitation and advertising.

For example, if a company sends an unsolicited commercial email to a Maine resident, they would be in violation of the Commercial Email and Spam law. Similarly, if a telemarketer uses an automated system to call Maine residents without their consent, they would be in violation of the Telemarketing & Telephonic Anti-Solicitation law. These laws are in place to protect Maine residents from unwanted and potentially harmful solicitation.

I told my family I won’t get any decisions until 2025 so they wouldn’t bombard me hahah
no i think there should be a Law School combine with all new drills except there is still the 40 yard dash
and a sub 4.5 gets you into any t14
LSAT can be one of the drills

@ClockworkBlue: I feel like most people could train for the 40 for the same amount of time as they do the LSAT and get close to sub 5 which would be equivalent to a 167+
