"...There's a cautionary tale here for all those conservatives -- libertarian, reformist, anti-cronyist -- who like to argue that a more principled and politically-successful Republican Party would necessarily have a less cozy relationship with big business and the rich," Ross Douthat wrote in his New York Times autopsy of the Cuccineli/McAuliffe Virginia gubernatorial race.
Douthat accurately nails the challenge of anti-crony conservatives (or as I like to call them, Tea Party members). The Republican primary in Virginia pitted Cuccinelli, a more anti-crony conservative, against Establishment Republican Bill Bolling. Douthat calls Bolling more "business-friendly," but I'm pretty sure that means Bolling was willing to offer subsidies and deals to special interests. Bolling's willingness to pay-for-play would likely have garnered more campaign donations and a win for the Republicans in Virginia as McAuliffe outspent Cuccinelli by boat loads.
This is a real mess, and one we libertarian-minded (or anti-cronyism, I'm going to adopt that term) conservatives need to figure out, and we'd better do it soon. Those in the political class theorizing that the divide in the Republican Party is all about social issues are dead wrong. The current fight for the soul of the GOP is about cronyism, pure and simple.
Until recently, it's been a fairly quiet "family conversation," to borrow a term from Johnson County Republican Chair Ronnie Metsker. The gloves are about to come off.
Consider for example, a giant empty field with a few construction trailers on it in Manhattan, Kan. It's supposed to be the site of the National Bio and Agro-Defense Facility (NBAF) at Kansas State University. In the old days, we'd all just sit back and expect our Congressional delegation to bring home the bacon. The feds promised $404 million in matching funds to build the defense facility, but now the project sits on hold as Congress fights over the budget.
The weird thing is that Sen. Pat Roberts, a K-State alumnus, and Sen. Jerry Moran, WHO LIVES IN MANHATTAN, are completely mum on the topic. They're in a tight spot, expected to bring home pork chops while cutting the budget. What better way to get the Kansas delegation on board with a spend-y budget than to use the NBAF as a bargaining chip? There's a lesson here about federal money not being free, but that's not the point.
So Moran and Roberts are already elected and in Washington feeling the heat. Neither offered comment to the Kansas City Star about the NBAF project-delay. There are lots of contractors and hopeful Manhattanites looking to score jobs and cash from the NBAF and their support for Roberts and Moran will dry up if this project is moth-balled.
But what about political candidates who promise to keep the federal budget in check? What about those anti-crony candidates who promise NOT to make special deals and government giveaways? Where do they find the cash to run a campaign for office?
That's really the question. You'll note that some traditional Republican constituencies are pulling away from the party's base. The best example would be the U.S. Chamber of Commerce and other Chambers offering blanket support to "immigration reform." They want cheap labor, and consequences to the country and her citizenry be damned. This break may be the split that kills the GOP.
Their support for immigration reform is short-sighted. While a wealth of cheap labor may temporarily provide economic benefits, over time, those immigrants will change the face of our economy in ways that I don't believe Chamber members have carefully considered. It means lower wages for everyone, including business owners, over time.
It pains me to say it, but even the Kansas Chamber should be questioned. They are on board with the push to open our borders.
Any candidate that receives the support of the Chambers of Commerce should be carefully considered. If there's another conservative option, that candidate should get your vote and a whatever cash you can spare.
Unfortunately it is coroprate welfare on the Republican Establishment Right and social welfare on the Democratic Socialist Left. And founding father constitutional individual liberty and freedom collapsing in the Middle! The Republican Primary is THE election to take back our founding priniciples and without that accomplishment the Republic is Lost!
Think of it as 2 armies facing each other: 1 has self-interested union and government people who will give their time and money and the other side has self-interested corporate welfare people and the grassroots who only want an honest, limited, efficient government unimpeded by public-private cronyism. These grassroots people will NOT sacrifice for the few corporate self-interests. Therefore, the Repubicans will lose or not do near what they could so that a few asses can get into the public trough. Many Democrats will win because the selfish, short-sighted Chambers of Commerce would rather rip off taxpayers just like the union and government whores.

Penn State Guard Jamari Wheeler Announces Transfer To Ohio State
By Colin Hass-Hill on March 30, 2021 at 9:00 pm @chasshill
Joseph Maiorana – USA TODAY Sports
OSU Basketball
Ohio State didn't have to leave the Big Ten to make a roster addition.
Jamari Wheeler, a Penn State Nittany Lion for the past four years, announced his decision to join the Buckeyes via transfer on Tuesday evening.
The 6-foot-1, 170-pound guard will play one season of basketball in Columbus. He'll utilize the extra year of eligibility offered by the NCAA in response to the coronavirus pandemic after playing four years in white and blue.
The Wheeler File
Year: Senior
Size: 6-foot-1, 170 pounds
Pos: Guard
School: Penn State
Stats: 6.8 points, 4.2 rebounds, 3.5 assists per game last season
Across four seasons with Penn State, Wheeler played in 127 games, starting all but seven games he played in the final three years of his time in State College, Pennsylvania. He averaged 6.8 points, 4.2 rebounds and 3.5 assists in 31.2 minutes per game with a shooting split of 39.9/35.7/62.9 as a senior in 2020-21. Wheeler is thought of as a quality distributor – with approximately a 2-to-1 assist-to-turnover rate each of the past three years – and a fine outside shooter. He improved his 3-point percentage drastically between his first two years (14.3 percent and 18.2 percent) and last two years (38.9 percent and 35.7 percent).
Much of the reason he gained notoriety over the past several years – and the main reason the Buckeyes targeted him in the transfer portal – was due to his defensive prowess and competitiveness. Wheeler managed at least 1.3 steals per game every year with Penn State, including 1.8 per game as a senior. His steal rate of 3.2 percent ranked 114th nationally and was higher than any player's on Ohio State's roster. After beating the Nittany Lions by 10 points in February, head coach Chris Holtmann specifically mentioned Wheeler (and forward John Harrar, who's also in the transfer portal) for his competitiveness, calling him a "warrior."
Each of the past two years, Wheeler was an All-Big Ten Defensive Team selection.
Wheeler opted to move on from Penn State to play a fifth season of college hoops when he entered the transfer portal on March 16. Along with the Buckeyes, UNLV, TCU, Wright State, Morgan State, and Tulsa reportedly contacted him.
Now a guard at Ohio State, Wheeler joins a backcourt that's also set to feature fifth-year Jimmy Sotos, fourth-year Duane Washington Jr., second-year Meechie Johnson and first-year Malaki Branham.
Fastest player in the country?

Neymar In Tears As Di Maria's Goal Secures Copa America Cup For Argentina
The Brazilian star wanted to congratulate his friend for fulfilling a lifelong dream
Neymar found Lionel Messi moments after Brazil's 1-0 defeat in the Copa America final on Saturday night and gave the Argentina forward a congratulatory hug.
The former Barcelona team-mates remain great friends off the pitch, so Neymar wanted to salute his tournament rival even as he still had tears in his eyes from the loss. Later, the duo sat next to one another on the field to talk.
Neymar had struggled with physical challenges from defenders during the match as Messi earned his first senior international tournament triumph.
How did Argentina win?
Angel Di Maria burst past the Brazil back line and chipped a shot over the head of Ederson in the 22nd minute.
Neymar and Co. then found it difficult to create chances, with Richarlison coming closest to an equaliser in the second half.
"First we have to congratulate our opponents especially for the first half when they neutralised us," centre-back Thiago Silva told reporters.
"In the second half there was no contest - only one team tried to play football, the other just wasted time as we knew they would. It's not an excuse, we didn't do what we had to, principally in the first half."
Neymar had put together a phenomenal tournament before losing in the final, scoring two goals and delivering three assists, but that won't ease the pain of falling just short of Copa America glory after watching injured from afar when Brazil won in 2019.
James Drake 9:09 pm, July 11, 2021
Poor Neymar. What a cry baby. Do a "Google" search for him and all you get are stories about him rolling around faking injury and whining. Peter-Drake

Hopkins-Jones Undercard: Final Thoughts
Share All sharing options for: Hopkins-Jones Undercard: Final Thoughts
Since I didn't go too much into the PPV undercard last night in the Hopkins-Jones recap, let's do that now.
Jason Litzau TD-7 Rocky Juarez
This wasn't the exciting fight it could have been. It went the fight's other potential way: Juarez and Litzau were both tentative, and neither of them ever really opened up. Litzau was booed pretty heavily by the audience after the fight, which I thought was rather unfair to him. I had him leading 67-66 on my card when the fight was stopped, and I feel he deserves the win. The crowd was probably booing so much because they thought Litzau wasn't a warrior or didn't have a Spartan heart!!! or whatever, but the doctor stopped the fight, not Litzau. His eye was nearly swollen shut and he probably couldn't see much. Litzau may not be the all-action guy he has a reputation as being (that has really slowed down after his two bad losses), but he's not a wimp, either. I felt bad for him having to soak in boos he really hadn't earned.
Meanwhile, Juarez was cheered, which I found just as puzzling, but also assume has something to do with the crowd assuming Juarez was gaining momentum (he might have been), and that Juarez deserved to have the fight finish. But if the boos were at all because the fight itself was pretty dull, I blame Juarez before I do Litzau. Why would Litzau storm at a guy who's a better inside fighter than he is, who can punch, when Juarez wasn't going to make him do that?
As always, Rocky Juarez came into the fight saying, "I know I start slow, I need to start quicker." But he didn't do that. After the fight, he said he was planning to turn it up in the last few rounds. He had the eighth, ninth and tenth rounds to turn up the heat, and sure he could have knocked out Litzau, but why not attack earlier? Litzau has in the past shown a willingness to completely abandon a smarter boxing style to trade bombs, and it's gotten him beaten down. This win for Litzau is by far the biggest one he has on his sheet now. I don't want to say Rocky Juarez "let him" win, because that's too far, but Rocky Juarez genuinely didn't do much to stop Litzau from winning this fight.
Juarez is now 28-6-1 (20 KO). He is 0-4-1 in title fights (0-5-1 if you count the interim title fight he had with Humberto Soto). He's now lost to Litzau, who is a big step down from Barrera, John and Soto. Where does he go? What does he really offer anyone? I know it was heat of the moment and post-fight interviews aren't always much to care about, but Juarez seemed unsure whether or not he wanted to be in the stepping stone or gatekeeper position that he probably is now. To be honest, if he has the desire to keep going, it wouldn't be the worst thing for him to do. Juarez still has the power and ability to knock off overconfident, potentially overhyped guys on their way up, and then he's back in the mix.
But he's never going to change his style. I'm done being frustrated as a fan of Rocky Juarez. He is what he is, a good guy and a good fighter who most of the time is his own worst enemy in the ring. Given the lack of depth at 130 pounds, Jason Litzau (who I still don't feel is top 10 or too close to it in that division) could very well get a title shot if the Square Ring people try to find one for him.
Sergio Mora TKO-7 Calvin Green
Calvin Green was never going to win this fight, but damned if he didn't try. At 5'8", he was clearly fighting overweight against Mora, who is a legitimate middleweight -- not a big one or a strong one, but a middleweight. And Green was also clearly out of his depth in terms of talent. But the Texas club fighter came to his first-ever televised fight on a mission. He was going to knock Sergio Mora out.
It didn't happen, but hats off to Calvin Green for not just accepting a rollover position for the former junior middleweight titlist and "Contender" winner. Green brought the fight to Mora. Problem was, he just wasn't big enough to hurt him, so eventually Green worse himself out, and Mora took full control of the fight. Sergio seemed in the middle rounds of the fight to get that he could let Green punch himself out for two minutes, then storm on him in the final minute of the round and leave a big impression. It worked, and eventually Green all but fell into the corner and referee Russell Mora stopped the bout, which was a good call. Green was upset because he wanted to finish the fight, but it was a proper stoppage.
Mora probably could use another tune-up fight, and one that comes soon. Even if it's just a fight with a decent journeyman on Fight Night Club, Mora needs to stay more active. I have never been a Sergio Mora fan, but when he's on his game, he's a tricky, awkward guy and a tough out for just about anybody. When he was set to fight Kelly Pavlik last year, I thought Pavlik would win, but that Mora would give him some trouble. Mora's still just 29 and hasn't taken a lot of punishment in his career, so there's still a chance for him to win some titles and make some money. Golden Boy will get behind him if they can, I reckon. That's up to Sergio now. How bad does he want it? I think by signing on to fight Pavlik last year, he showed us that perhaps he's past that stage of his career where he flubbed a Jermain Taylor fight over location and wound up drawing Elvin Ayala instead, which threatened to all but remove him from the relevant boxing scene. But he came back, beat Vernon Forrest, and turned his career around. He's still got a window, but it's smaller than it was before. It's on him to do something now.
Ismayl Sillakh TKO-2 Daniel Judah
Judah is not as durable as he used to be, but Sillakh is the real deal. He fights with precision -- he's a good puncher, likes to target the body, has a useful cockiness about him ("swagger," you might call it), and fights smart, too. He got cut in this fight, not in a good place, so he came out in the second round to rid himself of this fight, and busted Judah out of there at 0:49 of the second frame. He's got the killer instinct.
Now what's left to find out is what he can take, mentally and physically. Judah had nothing in the ring last night, really, and while he was a big step up for Sillakh, there are more steps to take. I'd call Sillakh a blue chip prospect, but there's still a lot to learn about him. Eventually, no matter how good you are, you find yourself in with someone who can take your shots and bring some back to you. Sillakh hasn't met that guy yet, but he will. Sometimes it happens on the major stage, sometimes it happens in a club somewhere. But it'll happen, and then we'll know more.
Frankie Gomez TKO-3 Clayvonne Howard
Despite the insistence of Joe Tessitore and Doug Fischer, Howard was no real test for Gomez. Yeah, he fought kinda hard, but he didn't fight that hard, and obviously the 18-year-old Gomez was way too much for him. Gomez also weighed 140 on the scales, with Howard at 134. That's two different weight classes. It means nothing (Gomez was going to beat him no matter what), but this was just your run of the mill pro debut for a touted prospect.
Gomez is an East Los Angeles product, same as Oscar de la Hoya and Sergio Mora. He drew comparisons in our live thread last night to Juan Diaz, a relentless guy with little fear. We'll see how that translates as he moves up, but he's definitely someone to watch.
Ray Narh TKO-2 Angel Hernandez
Narh was supposedly going to fight Breidis Prescott last year, but didn't. Like Prescott, Narh is a tall (5'10") lightweight with a punch but not a whole lot else. I think he'd probably beat Prescott, though. At 31, he's not a prospect or anything like that. The Ghanaian has been a pro for nine years and it's time to get a move on. He blew past Hernandez, but then he should, and he's been blowing past guys on Hernandez's level for a while now.

Smith said offensive lineman Michael Moaga and linebacker Trevon Spencer were among leaders in spring practice, heading a group of 11 seniors.
The team developed a sense of accountability throughout their workouts in the spring.
Smith said Moaga was the team's best offensive lineman coming out of spring and assumed a larger role than was expected of him. That larger role included the possibility of playing as a defensive end because of how well he runs.
Moaga is just one of the players that Smith sees playing multiple roles in an attempt to alleviate depth problems.
Last season's starting quarterback, Ora Johnson, might or might not perform at multiple positions but brought versatility to the one he played in 2015. Johnson, a junior from Bryan Station, rushed for 381 yards and passed for 892 last season.
Smith's mind has also run wild with possibly implementing a two-quarterback system, or even having Johnson play on both sides of the ball as a wide receiver/defensive back combo.
Another player who gives the team options is Reginal Harris. The senior running back racked up 878 total yards last season and proved he can be a weapon either lining up in the backfield or in the slot.
Those choices will decide whether the team achieves its lofty goals. Smith wants to send the senior class out as winners, and challenges his team to shoot ever higher.
When: Sept. 3, 11:45 a.m.

The Great Trump Tax Mysteries: Is He Hiding Loopholes, Errors or Something More
feedback.pdxradio.com forums › feedback.pdxradio.com forums › Politics and other things › The Great Trump Tax Mysteries: Is He Hiding Loopholes, Errors or Something More
This topic has 1 reply, 1 voice, and was last updated 5 years, 4 months ago by Andy Brown.
An investigation into the G.O.P. candidate's finances—the extensive deductions he could claim, the F.E.C. filings from his Scottish and Irish golf resorts, and his declarations to the British government—reveals a disturbing pattern of mistakes, hype, and contradictions.
Trump isn't nearly the real-estate player he once was, particularly since some of his companies went through high-profile bankruptcies in the early 1990s. In a ranking of New York condominium developers last September, for instance, Trump didn't even make the top 20.
Many bankers don't lend to Trump now, burned by what some call "Donald risk," a reference to the fact that some Wall Street banks have been left with pennies on the dollar through some of his maneuvers.
In his 92-page financial disclosure to the Federal Election Commission (F.E.C.) in July 2015 and in a second, 104-page disclosure last May, in both of which he calls himself "President of the United States of America" (Hillary humbly calls herself "Candidate for President"), he lists at least $1.5 billion in hard assets. Of this, a minimum of $787 million is in hotels and real estate such as Trump Tower, in Manhattan. There are also 16 golf-related businesses valued at more than $550 million, aircraft worth at least $58 million, $6 million in vineyards, and $4.3 million in entertainment ventures. These are lower-bound numbers: categories include "over $50 million," with no upper limit. (The main purpose of these disclosures isn't to build a full picture of a candidate's finances but to identify conflicts of interest.) Trump claimed to me that his net worth is "much more than $10 billion…. I don't know how much more." A Trump press release in July 2015 also claimed his net worth was "in excess of TEN BILLION DOLLARS," though Fortune in May estimated it at $3.9 billion, and Bloomberg News reckoned it at $2.9 billion last July. (Michael Bloomberg, by comparison, is worth $45 billion, according to Forbes.)
Some might say that Trump's single-minded pursuit of money is just a red-blooded example of the American way. Whether or not this is so, his may not be the qualities one seeks in a president. "The president has a duty of loyalty and care to the United States," said Susan Pace Hamill, a professor at the University of Alabama School of Law and Honors College and an expert in tax avoidance for small businesses. "He or she is a fiduciary to the public. Donald Trump is a deal-maker for himself. There is not a fiduciary bone in his body. This is generally acceptable in the rough-and-tumble world of business but is not remotely in the universe of what you want out of a public official."
The plot thickens. Linked In billionaire co founder Reid Hoffman has pledged up to $5 Million for veterans groups if Donald J. Trump agrees to release his tax returns before the Oct. 19 presidential debate.
Candidates are not required to release their returns, but if Mr. Trump fails to do so before the election, he would be the first major-party presidential nominee in four decades to withhold them. This has fueled speculation that Mr. Trump's returns would reveal facts about his wealth, charitable donations, business relationships or tax arrangements that might be politically damaging.
The returns might resolve questions about Mr. Trump's own charitable giving. The Washington Post has reported that the candidate has exaggerated the amount he has donated to veterans groups over the years.
http://www.nytimes.com/2016/09/14/us/politics/linkedin-hoffman-trump-tax-returns-veterans.html
drumpf exaggerate? Couldn't be. Of course, if it was good enough for drumpf to use this tactic on Obama it sure is good enough to put more pressure on drumpf to release his taxes. Oh, that's right! Even the donald has said if he releases his taxes he will lose. Newsflash: He's going to lose anyway.

Buying land in Bolivia is incredibly easy in theory. Once the papers are produced proving title a search is performed to make sure there are no outstanding loans or mortgages on the property. Then a document is drawn up with the owners agreeing to sell and the buyers agreeing to buy, it is notarized and once the money is handed over, so are the deeds to the land.
The oblong plot consists of just over 10 acres of land giving us plenty of scope to create a recreational hacienda. It is bordered on one of the short sides by a public access dirt road and a steep slope leading down to a ditch on the other. The steep slope will be terraced to form a campsite and an orchard. The long sides of the oblong slope down from back to front facing north (don't forget we're in the southern hemisphere) with two knolls at the high end giving sites for the main building and the cottage.
and New Mexico adobe architecture.
From the public access road there will be a large gate in a 2m high adobe wall with a drive leading to a parking area. South of the gate will be the site for the septic field.
The main building will be a large two storey building with a reception office, restaurant, lounge bar, kitchen, library/internet room on the ground floor with private accommodation upstairs. We might end up living 'above the shop' but in the meantime we are building a separate cottage to move into asap. If we like it enough, it could be our permanent home, if not it will be a guesthouse for friends/family or rental accommodation.
Built into the slope in front of the main building will be an as yet undetermined number of interlinked but individual guest suites with terraces and courtyards, with a large swimming pool to one side.
Other buildings will include a cinema, a gym, an arts and crafts studio and a toilet/shower block for the camp site. Also a stable as we are hoping to have a couple of horses.
We are contemplating acquiring a few chickens, raising a few pigs and possibly some llamas and alpacas.
Apart from many courtyards with flowers and trees a fruit and nut orchard is also on the cards, as is a large veggie and herb garden.
The realization that I needed a project to fill the void left by my decision to set aside my sea-going adventures led me to South America and to Bolivia. I knew that the sale of my little cottage in France would only yield sufficient funds for a project in one of the poorer countries so when I returned to South America in late 2008, my first try out was in Ecuador. A small but perfectly formed country with coastline, mountains and jungle, it seemed to fit the bill, but a steadily increasing stream of disgruntled North Americans looking for a cheaper place to live not too far from the USA had driven property prices up. I wasn't interested in being part of a large ex-pat community, preferring to integrate into South America in all its parts. I spent a couple of months in Cuenca, going to Spanish school and looking at property but nothing inspirational was within my budget, so it was back to Bolivia with Ed in early 2009.
It felt so good to be back in what is sometimes known as 'the Tibet of the Americas' - Lake Titicaca, soaring mountains, jungles thick with wildlife, arid deserts and vistas of dazzling white salt flats to the horizon. In Bolivia there is a feeling of authenticity where life and culture have continue unchanged for centuries, juxtaposed with 21st century additions such as internet, mobile phones and huge 4 x 4 jeeps fueled with LPG.
The climate is near perfect for me - spring-like temperatures of around 25C all year, although with the high altitude the sun is fierce and it feels more like 30C. June and July are the coldest months, but only at night when temperatures can drop to near zero. So it is possible to sunbathe during the day and enjoy a chimney fire at night. The rainy season runs from November to March, but Sucre doesn't have a lot of rain, so the skies are rarely grey for long.
Bolivians are friendly and helpful, calm by nature but extreme party lovers. Ed and I have received so much kindness as we start to integrate into their world - they are both puzzled that we should want to live so far from our country and delighted that we are so enamoured of Bolivia. There are a few ex-pats in Sucre, mostly European - some of them are running hostals, restaurants and bars, others founding or working in volunteer projects.
A large part of our decision to live in Bolivia is to assist others less fortunate. On a very basic level it is possible to give very little but to make a huge difference to someone - sharing food with the old or disabled on the street or putting in time at one of the local centres for street kids. Leaving generous tips for the restaurant staff who earn so little, and paying above the average wage for workers.
Of course, I could never have taken on such an ambitious project without Ed. His ability to take a design and transform it into a physical reality is well known to our friends and family. But this is the first time we will be working as a team to build ourselves a home and a business.
We have spent many hours walking the land, looking at the rise and fall of its contours - the position of the sun at different times of day, the direction of the prevailing wind. Evenings are spent researching adobe architecture online, earth building construction techniques, doodling on drawing pads, and brainstorming eco-friendly ideas that will keep our carbon footprint on the land as small as possible without compromising comfort.
The stones that cover the land will be used for stem walls to support the adobe bricks that will form the structures of the buildings and the perimeter wall. Adobe, or mud, is a common building material in regions that have low rainfall, and is also more able to withstand seismic shocks. Although the countryside is dotted with small mud houses, adobe has also been used for some of the most architecturally complicated and grand colonial architecture in the city of Sucre.
Our intention is to use passive solar heating as a natural resource by positioning all the buildings to face the sun. One of the main attractions in building with adobe for is its ability to absorb heat from the sun during the day and store it at night. We will have an unlimited supply of mud from excavating the foundations of the buildings and perimeter walls, underground water cisterns and the swimming pool.
Around about my birthday in June of last year I remember saying that my dream would be to build a house high on a hill with views all around.
I was in the process of selling my home in France with a view to relocating to South America. Earlier that year I had fallen for a large dilapidated colonial house for sale in the centre of Sucre, Bolivia, and was hoping to return with enough funds to purchase and, with Ed's help, to restore it. The idea was to create a home, incorporating guest accommodation and a bar/restaurant.
Returning to Sucre in February of this year, I found that the global economic crisis had not affected property in Bolivia - in fact the price of the colonial ruin had increased to a level beyond my means. Still feeling enamored of the country and the Sucre area in particular, the decision was made to rent an apartment and keep an eye out for other possibilities.
Anyone who has spent any time in a South American city knows of the downsides. In Sucre black smoke pours out of the city buses (exported polluting rejects from Japan) as they climb the hilly streets. The pavements are crowded with street sellers and pedestrians, with the choice of staying out of the road and getting body bumped or stepping into the road and risking one's life in the traffic. One morning I woke to the sound of impatient taxi drivers honking their horns and irritating car alarms and longed for silence laced only with birdsong. It was no good - I just wasn't cut out for living in the city.
Then I remembered my dream - the land around Sucre inclined from hills at 2,700 meters to mountains at 4,200 within 2 hours drive south. A visit to a local estate agent produced details of a large section of rural terrain for sale 20 minutes south of Sucre. I went up to view it, thinking I would only need a couple of acres, but once i arrived my horizons expanded to match the view. The sky was endless, with 360 degree vistas towards hills and mountains. The land sloped gently to the north - an ideal position south of the equator.
Even though the land was pretty barren, covered with rocks, a few small trees and some vicious low growing thorn bushes, I could see its potential. With all the land there would be more than enough to build a home - a recreational hacienda to share with world travellers who wanted a change from the crowded cities of South America. It would be a huge undertaking, but with Ed's agreement to project manage, I felt confident that we could pull it off.
It would be called Sky Hacienda.


Seems like a pirate kid would be raised a lot more pirate-y.
Sounds like they ARRR doing the best they can.
Oh-ho! Pirate Pun! Lovin' it!
I wish you would do a pirate week. That would be one of the greatest weeks ever. You ARRR amazing.
The little kid bugs always crack me up for some reason.
And I agree… a pirate week would totally rock!
The eyepatch is so he can push somebody with lunch into a dark boiler room, and see well enough to take the lunch while the poor victim can't see that his lunchables are being stolen.
Worst part about pirate parents? Endless pirate puns!
ROFLMAO at that last panel. If you want a good laugh, select Pirate English as your Facebook language. Hilarious.
I'm not gonna lie, that actually sounds kinda awesome.
… and the pun for the win! Love the writing on all these strips.
I would love bag lunches full of rum!
Ah! You made an "arrr" joke! I love you.
Altogether excellent. The pirate puns arrrrr endless.
I think this has to be my favorite one yet!
"Scallywags" Is now my favorite word.
And I'd prefer grounding to walking the plank, thank you.
I'm just going through all the comics I didn't manage to keep up with recently and had to laugh when I saw this one since I live in Cartagena in Spain 😛 No pirate should try to plunder this town or they'll find thesmselves against an army of anarchists and corrupt police officers.
So basically, the kid in the last panel is the TF2 Demoman.
An eye-patch and a bottle of rum.

In business it is incredibly important that you have a clearly defined target market. At Motate Media, we feel the best way to define a target market is through culture. Usually, people think of "culture" in connection with ethnicity or nationality. However, culture just describes a flexible "circle" that we draw around a specific group of people with unique commonalities and similar characteristics. Sometimes people use the term "sub-culture" to express this idea.
Your target market is comprised of a specific culture or cultures. While much has been written about the importance of considering your target market, there is little about how to actually do this. We have identified six "key factors" that will help you identify your primary and secondary target market. The more specifically you can describe your target market in these areas the more clearly you will be able to design effective strategies to reach them.
Where people live is important in defining their culture. However, this is more specific than national boundaries. In the United States, New England is much different than the Northwest. Portland is very different than Salt Lake City. Every country has regional distinctives. Having a clear understanding of where your customers are is a good start.
Another key factor is age. Are you trying to reach children or retirees, teenagers or young parents? Different age groups will necessitate very different approaches.
Often overlooked is the difference between urban and rural audiences. Is your target market primarily in cities, suburbia, or rural communities?
Men and women think differently. Often, depending on your product/service, you might realize that you deal more than the other.
Language is another key factor that helps us to define the culture of our target market. Sometimes we mistakenly combine this with geographic location, but language and location may not correlate in the ways we first think.
Lower, lower-middle, middle, upper-middle. upper… every culture divides communities into different classes or sections.
This key factor is added to make sure we do not leave any significant commonality out. Often our target market is united by a similar interest or hobby. An example of this would be a "strong political affiliation" to a specific political party. This may have no direct relation to your product/service, but it may prove useful for a more effective marketing strategy.
Reaching your target market is important for the success of your business. These key factors will help you define your target market. Understanding your target market is also important for your website and online presence. The next step is designing specifically for your target market. This is where our team is unique (and awesome). For a limited time we are offering our Target Market Design Analysis for only $39.00. Click here for more information.

Attorney Dragana Djordjevic » Blog » Decision on the acquisition of company and its legal effect
Decision on the acquisition of company and its legal effect
Provisions of the Companies Act shall regulate concept and types of status changes, as well as procedures for conducting status changes, registration, and legal consequences of registration of status changes.
A company in a status change – the transferring company reorganizes itself to the effect that it transfers assets and obligations to another company – the recipient company, while its members acquire shares, i.e. stocks in that company.
The acquisition represents a type of status change.
One or more companies may be acquired by another company by transferring all assets and obligations to that company, whereby the acquired company dissolves without undergoing liquidation procedure.
Decision on the Acquisition of Company
In a decision on the acquisition of company, the general meeting approves:
The contract on status change, if such a contract was concluded up to the date of holding of a session of the shareholders' meeting
The draft agreement on status change, if such an agreement was not concluded up to the day of holding of a session of the shareholders' meeting.
In case of a joint stock company, the decision on the acquisition of company is passed by a three-quarter majority of votes of the stockholders present, unless a higher majority is prescribed by the articles of association.
If, as a result of the status change, certain members of the transferring company are becoming the members of the recipient company, jointly and severally liable for its obligations, the decision on the acquisition of company may be rendered only with their consent.
The general meeting shall, concurrently with rendering the decision on the acquisition of company:
Adopt the amendments of the memorandum of association, i.e. articles of association in case of a joint stock company, if the company continues to operate
Adopt the memorandum of association of a company which is created in the status change, as well as the articles of association of that company, if it is a joint stock company
Adopt a resolution on the share capital increase, i.e. decrease depending on the type of the status change.
If the exchange of share, i.e. stocks in a different proportion is effected by a status change, the decision on the acquisition of company must contain a provision that it enters into force by issuing a written statement by the chairman of the board of directors, i.e. the chairman of the company's supervisory board, if the company has a two-tier management system, that all obligations of the company related to repurchase of stocks of dissenting stockholders have been executed in full in accordance with Articles 475 and 476 of the Company Act, i.e. that there were no dissenting stockholders, that each member of the transferring company agreed that the exchange of the shares, i.e. stocks in a different proportion is effected by the status change, except for the members of the transferring company that use their right to payment instead of acquiring shares, i.e. stocks in the recipient company in accordance with Article 508 of the Companies Act.
In case of a joint stock company, the decision on the acquisition of company shall contain a provision that it enters into force upon giving of a written statement by the chairman of the board of directors, as well as the chairman of the supervisory board, if the company has a two-tier management system, that all of the dissenting stockholders were fully paid up for the value of their stocks in accordance with Article 475 of the Companies Act.
An agreement on status change enters into force when the general meetings of all the companies participating in the status change adopt a decision on the acquisition of company approving it, i.e., on the day of the conclusion of that contract, if that date comes later unless the agreement envisages that it enters into force on a later date.
Contesting the Decision on the Acquisition of Company
Provisions of Articles 376 through 381 of the Companies Act apply when contesting the decision on the acquisition of company.
In the proceeding upon the action for annulment of the decision on the acquisition of company, the court shall set an appropriate period in which the respondent company shall eliminate the reasons for annulment, if such reasons can be eliminated.
The competent court shall serve the decision on annulment of the decision on the acquisition of company, after it becomes final, on the register of business entities for publication in accordance with the registration act. This judicial decision produces no effects to the rights and obligations of the recipient company in connection to status change which arose after entering into force of the legal consequences of the status change, and up to the day of publication of the final judicial decision in the register of business entities, and all the companies participating in the status change are jointly and severally liable for those obligations.
The decision on the acquisition of company may not be contested on the grounds of the determined ratio of the exchange of shares, i.e. stocks.

From August 1968 until early 1973, this T-39A Sabreliner was assigned to Bergstrom AFB, Texas, in support of former President Lyndon B. Johnson as he traveled to and from his ranch in nearby Stonewall. Originally designed for a crew of two with four passengers, this T-39A was retrofitted with a special VIP interior to accommodate six passengers and three crewmembers.
Following President Johnson's death in January 1973, this aircraft flew as a test bed for advanced avionics and communication equipment as part of the SPECKLED TROUT research and development program. Nicknamed "Speckled Minnow" due to its small size, this T-39A continued to serve as an executive transport for many government and Air Force officials until its retirement to the museum in October 1984.

The Private Debt Project and the Center for Household Financial Stability of the St. Louis Federal Reserve Bank are pleased to present here the papers from their conference on, "Tipping Points: Mapping and Understanding the Impact of Debt on Household Financial Well-Being and Economic Growth." The Conference was the first of two research symposia focusing on the economics of household debt in the United States. The overall purpose of this joint effort is to advance a better understanding of when debt reaches a "tipping point" for different households and for the economy as a whole—i.e., when it moves from being a positive contribution to household financial well-being to a negative drag on well-being and when it moves from making a positive contribution to economic growth to being a threat to growth.
