Real estate investing is the way to go to if you want to earn huge profits since prices of properties have increased dramatically over the years. Now the downside of this is that fewer people are able to afford the good ones since their prices have gone from inexpensive to prohibitive in the past three years or so.

And when foreclosures are consistently on the rise, the opportunity to cash in on them has also greatly increased.

It marked the decline of absolute monarchies, the rise of secular and democratic republics, and the eventual rise of Napoleon Bonaparte. This revolutionary period is crucial in understanding the transition from feudalism to modernity in Europe.

June 3, 2024 Anti-Semitism Letter Sent to MIT President Kornbluth and MIT Cor...Levi Shapiro
Letter from the Congress of the United States regarding Anti-Semitism sent June 3rd to MIT President Sally Kornbluth, MIT Corp Chair, Mark Gorenberg
Dear Dr. Kornbluth and Mr. Gorenberg,
The US House of Representatives is deeply concerned by ongoing and pervasive acts of antisemitic
harassment and intimidation at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). Failing to act decisively to ensure a safe learning environment for all students would be a grave dereliction of your responsibilities as President of MIT and Chair of the MIT Corporation.
This Congress will not stand idly by and allow an environment hostile to Jewish students to persist. The House believes that your institution is in violation of Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, and the inability or
unwillingness to rectify this violation through action requires accountability.
Postsecondary education is a unique opportunity for students to learn and have their ideas and beliefs challenged. However, universities receiving hundreds of millions of federal funds annually have denied
students that opportunity and have been hijacked to become venues for the promotion of terrorism, antisemitic harassment and intimidation, unlawful encampments, and in some cases, assaults and riots.
The House of Representatives will not countenance the use of federal funds to indoctrinate students into hateful, antisemitic, anti-American supporters of terrorism. Investigations into campus antisemitism by the Committee on Education and the Workforce and the Committee on Ways and Means have been expanded into a Congress-wide probe across all relevant jurisdictions to address this national crisis. The undersigned Committees will conduct oversight into the use of federal funds at MIT and its learning environment under authorities granted to each Committee.
• The Committee on Education and the Workforce has been investigating your institution since December 7, 2023. The Committee has broad jurisdiction over postsecondary education, including its compliance with Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, campus safety concerns over disruptions to the learning environment, and the awarding of federal student aid under the Higher Education Act.
• The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is investigating the sources of funding and other support flowing to groups espousing pro-Hamas propaganda and engaged in antisemitic harassment and intimidation of students. The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is the principal oversight committee of the US House of Representatives and has broad authority to investigate “any matter” at “any time” under House Rule X.
• The Committee on Ways and Means has been investigating several universities since November 15, 2023, when the Committee held a hearing entitled From Ivory Towers to Dark Corners: Investigating the Nexus Between Antisemitism, Tax-Exempt Universities, and Terror Financing. The Committee followed the hearing with letters to those institutions on January 10, 202

instrument, until the contrary is proved.
5. Types of Negotiable Instrument:
The negotiable instruments can be classified into two types
Negotiable by Statute
Negotiable by Custom or Usage
Negotiable by Statute:
Section 13 of the Negotiable Instrument Act states only three kinds of negotiable instruments viz. promissory
notes, bills of exchange and cheques. These are instruments by statute.
Negotiable by Custom or Usage:
These are instruments which gained the character of negotiability by the usage or custom of trade. In India,
Government promissory notes, banker’s drafts and pay orders, hundis, delivery orders and railway receipts for
goods have been held to be negotiable by usage or custom.

The negotiable instruments can be classified under this category are

7. Promissory Notes:
According to Sec. 4 of the Act, a promissory note is an instrument in writing containing an unconditional undertaking,
signed by the maker, to pay a certain sum of money, only to or the bearer of the instrument.
The person who promises to pay in writing is called the maker of the instrument.
The person to whom it is payable is called the payee.
Characteristics:
1.In Writing:
The instrument must be in writing. In this context, writing includes writing with pen, pencil, typewriting or print.
2. Promise to Pay:
There should be an undertaking or promise to pay. A mere acknowledgment of indebtedness is not sufficient to constitute
a promissory note.
8. 3. Unconditional:
The undertaking or promise to pay must be unconditional. Any condition in promise will make it invalid.
4. Signed by the Maker:
If the instrument is not signed by the maker it is incomplete and is not valid. It is just not sufficient to have the
signature. It is essential that the mind of the person signing should accompany the signature.
5. Certain Parties:
The instrument must clearly show who the maker of the instrument is and who the payee is. A promissory note
made payable to the maker himself is a nullity. But if it is endorsed by the maker to some other person or endorsed
in blank it becomes a valid promissory note.
9. 6. Certain Sum of Money:
The amount payable on the promissory note should be certain and should be specified in the promise.
7. Promise to Pay Money Only:
An instrument containing a promise to pay something other than money or something in addition to money, cannot
be a promissory note.
8. Bank note or Currency Note is not a Promissory Note:
Though there is a promise in the bank note or currency note it is not considered as a promissory note because it is
money itself.
9. Formalities:
Certain formalities like number, date place etc. are found in all instruments though they are not essential. But it is
necessary that it should bear the stamp required under the Indian stamp Act 1899
10. 10. Payable on Demand or After a Definite Period of Time:
The promissory note should state when it becomes payable. The term “On demand’ means that it is payable
immediately.

order, signed by the maker directing a certain person to pay, a certain sum of money only to or to the order, of a
certain person or to the bearer of the instrument.”
Parties A bill of exchange has three parties viz. drawer, drawee and payee. A person who makes the bill is called

the “payee”. If the drawer does not pass on the instrument to somebody, he himself will be the payee.
