Tropigoth, a movement to reinterpret the tropics, beach culture, the sunny areas of the world, and anything near an ocean in a gothic manner. Taking direct inspiration from the Caribbean World & Gulf of Mexico, Tropigoth is a throwback to an earlier era, when this tropical world was full of mysticism, occult cultures, voodoo, the celebration of the dead, transgressive, and fantastic in Dia de los Muertos and carnival and otherwise a darker interpretation of the floral and festive.

2023.06.04 17:47 bingo0619 Mediterranean Shore Excursions, Celebrity Infinity

Just got back from 11-day Mediterranean cruise on Celebrity Infinity. Thought I would share what we did and what learned and liked since this gets asked about a lot. Hope it's helpful :)
FYI-We prefer doing food and wine activities over sightseeing and touristy stuff, I will try to add things I heard from other passengers re: things we did not do. I am going to put he tour provider for each excursion for those who might want to book direct. Also, we sacrifice cabin class for good food and more expensive excursions to stay within our budget.

Barcelona- We embarked here and spent a few days prior. We were not prepared for the jet lag as we flew overnight and had one quick layover. We arrived midday and napped, but our schedules were off. I would recommend trying to stay up as long as you can and sleep at night, your normal time. Barcelona is seven hours ahead of the Midwest, where we live. Nevertheless, we rallied our middle-aged asses and had and an amazing time.
I pre purchased skip the line tickets for La Sagrada Familia and Parc Guell on separate days. We went at our scheduled time and did not wait. We stayed on Las Ramblas and took cabs there and walked back. Many people did hop on/off and that worked well. We also went to La Boqueria Market and bought little things from many stands and sampled a lot. Very fun and cool experience. Did a DYI tapas tour I put together on my own from just research. We did not know this, but Elton John was performing when were there and we got to go, which was amazing! Coldplay was also performing there so the city was crowded.
We stayed on Las Ramblas, which was close to the port, but I would recommend staying more inside the city. Our hotel was okay, clean, but not many amentities. Suited our purposes, but was loud some nights. Cabs and food are relatively cheap and easy.

Day 2- Marseille- We did a walking food tour through Shore Excursions Group since the Celebrity one was sold out. This was operated by a company called Do Eat Better Experience. There were six of us, the other 4, not on cruise. Was a four-hour tour and worth it. Went to places I would not have known about. Guide was ok, but not very interactive. We had a great time with the other couples.
We got off early to walk around before the tour which met at 11:30. However, shops and cafe's do not open up till later. I would recommend sleeping later and going into port later, if you dont have an excursion booked. By the time our excursion was over, the towns were buzzing. We took a cab from the port and back, but you can take a bus or shuttle, I believe. Very nice day.
Day 3-Nice (Villefranche)- We did a tour through Celebrity, called Destination highlights, Nice and St. Paul de Vence Village. This was operated by Intercruises Shoreside and Port Services. We tendered super quickly. This was great day and included a lunch at a Michelin starred restaurant and a wine tasting at Cave Bianchi in Nice. We also had plenty of free time to explore each place. The formula 1 racing was in Monoco so there were Ferrari's, Lambo's and other racecars all over the place. We were allowed to look and take pics which was cool.
The lunch and wine tasting were phenomenal. The beach at Nice was gorgeous and if we would have known we would have brought our bathing suit and towels to go there, rather than walk around in the town. You can easily take a cab there and go on your own without doing an excursion. This was an all-day tour. So were back on the ship in time to relax and eat in MDR and chill for the night. It was a great, great day. I will say the people and guides were not as friendly and helpful as in other places, but it's not really an issue and doesn't ruin anything, we just didn't expect it. Our guide in Nice as a little on the unprofessional side, but, to each their own.

Day 4-Florence/Pisa (La Spezia), Italy- We booked a tour through Celebrity called, Destination Highlight: Coast of Cinque Terre and Portovenere, operated by Aloschi Brothers. Our guide was absolutely incredible, probably the best one we have had. her name was Duna in case you ever do this privately. We had individual small receivers and ear buds so we could hear her perfectly. We started in Portovenere where there is the famous Church of San Pietro. Just amazing and stunning views. The town is charming, and we walked and sampled. Did not buy much, just some food to take home.
We then took a boat ride up the coast and ended at the last of the Cinque Terre Villages, Monterosso. I am so glad did this over the three-village tour by bus. The boat ride up the coast was just amazing, and I assume this villages were similar. Gorgeous village. Rather than fight the crowd we hiked up a steep hill to the just incredible Porto Roco hotel and ate an incredible seafood and pasta lunch. The views were fabulous, and we had it to ourselves. Great meal. There is also a small, but beautiful beach at Monterosso you can hang out on. This was our favorite day.
We did the Chef's table on Celebrity that night which was otherworldly. A lot of eating and drinking this day. Incredible day!
Day 5- Rome (Civitavecchia) We were never going to Rome, no desire to travel there and deal with the crowds. I booked a private car from We Love Italy to go wine tasing in Tuscany. We had a husband-and-wife couple, Paulo and Nicola driving us, and it was great. They were absolutely lovely, and it was a pleasure and privilege to be with them, so kind and generous. They have an open invitation to stay with us if they ever visit. They also took us to a village and beach in Capalbio and for lunch in Manciano-Saturina. Again, amazing food and wine. The boat left late so we had lots of time.
I heard Rome was not as crowded as some thought and some of our shipmates actually got a glimpse of the Pope at the Vatican, which is so special.

Day 6-at Sea- up by 7 :( and got a spot and the hot tubs after breakfast. Stayed by the pool most of morning, it was great weather. Lots of activities to do but we chilled. We did the Mixology class offered by Celebrity which was a blast. We were bartenders at Martini bar for a few hours learning to make and serve cocktails. So, so fun and crew and guests were great.
Day 7- Valletta, Malta: We did an excursion from Celebrity called, Destination Highlight: Seaside towns of Vittoriosa and Marsaxlokk. Operated by Sam Mifsud and Sons. The tour was so so, the best part being a trip for wine and food tasting. Do you guys sense a pattern? It was rather boring, I should have researched better on this one. The fishing village, Marsaxlokk was a basic tourist trap with a makeshift market and nothing open. Vittoriosa was nicer and where the restaurant was. They did set up a nice area and what was served was good. I think doing more on your own or going to Gozo or Limoncello tasting would be good. I looked after and there are some excursions that looked way better.
Day 8-at Sea- Very chill day. We did the Blendique Wine Class and the World Wine Tasting which we have done before. Both super fun with great people and crew. We did not eat much or go to pool.
Day 9- Santorini, Greece-We did an excursion through Celebrity called, Small Group Discoveries: Island Wine Tasting Experience, operated by Rhapsody Travel. Tendering ashore was organized and quick. Went to three wineries on the island and had food at each. Also visited black sand beach and red sand beach. the latter of which was spectacular. Very nice tour with not a lot of people. This also included our cable car tickets down. We ate lunch at a restaurant on the water, which I forgot the name, but it was good. There were 8 other ships there, so it got crowded, we left after lunch and waited a very reasonable hour for the cable cars down to the tender spot. Up tp this point it was nice day.
Due to something very upsetting I witnessed in the town, not cruise related, I will never, never, ever step foot on Santorini again. Not necessary to discuss as it was personal to me, and I don't want to cloud anyone else's experience or opinion.
We watched the famous sunset from the top deck and it did not disappoint. We avoided the very long lines to get back to ship at night.
Day 10-Mykonos, Greece: We did a Celebrity excursion called, Small Group Discoveries: Mykonian Cooking Experience, operated by Rhapsody Travel. People, I cannot tell you how great this was. We went to a private home or spiti. There 14 of us. Teta was our host and the home own. So gracious and generous. We learned so much and all interacted and prepared an authentic lunch and sat down to eat. She prepared dessert as well. It was around 4 hours. She was incredibly gracious and generous. Probably the second-best day we had. One of the best excursions we have ever done. I would do it again for sure.
We walked around Mykonos after and had ANOTHER lunch at a restaurant called Promenade that was great. Very fresh seafood and authentic food. This a was very nice town, we loved it. There was a very small church with a blue dome, (others had different colors) that was open and it was beautiful inside. It was right by the water. I'm not Greek orthodox or even religious, but I got chills. I small prayer of thanks to my G-d for giving me this experience. I would 100% come back to Mykonos.
We bought beautiful piece of art from a local artist and owned studio called, Triciclo. It was really our only big purchase. We don't really but T-shirts, magnets, etc.
Day 11-Athens: I had transfer and we went right home. :(

This was a beautiful, beautiful cruise. I could not have asked for better experiences.
Celebrity tendering was fast and organized and easy. This who had excursions at applicable ports met and left by group with 30 minutes of docking. Those who had tickets to tender without a Celebrity excursion got called overhead by group and left from a different deck, also fast.
Quite a few of the guide said Celebrity tender the quickest and best. They mentioned other line by name that were not good, but I don't be negative or worry someone else, so I won't mention specifics.
My other suggestion for Celebrity would be to pick excursions that are "Small Group Discoveries", or "Destination Highlights". These seemed to be a better experience.
Happy and safe cruising everyone!!

2023.06.04 17:27 intruder221 es normal no poder olvidar nunca las ofensas mas graves que me han hecho?

hace 11 años en el 2012 un tipo al que nunca habia visto estaba en la casa de mi vecino ayudando con unas remodelaciones yo un dia iba pasando por ahi y me quede unos segundos mirando lo que hacian, pero el me vio y salio a confrontarme porque alguien le habia dicho que yo molestaba a su abuelo, el estaba todo intimidante, yo lo analice bien, lo detalle, un tipo corpulento, calvo, con tatuajes, de aspecto rudo, pense seguramente sabe algun estilo de pelea, asi que no hice nada, dias despues el se presento en mi casa a disculparse conmigo porque le habian aclarado que yo no molestaba a su abuelo, y desde entonces el tipo me empezo a respetar, pero yo quede resentido no lo puedo olvidar, cada vez que lo veo pienso en aquel dia y me perturba ese pensamiento, al principio yo queria vengarme, queria matarlo, hacerle algo que le hiciera arrepentirse de haberme confrontado, son 3 las personas que me han amenazado o confrontado y no los olvido si los veo aunque ya se les haya pasado y hagan como si nada, yo lo recuerdo y mientras hablo con ellos estoy pensando en lo que me hicieron, hace 6 años un tipo me advirtio que no mirara a su hija y quede muy resentido ese dia mis amigos siguieron hablando y bromenado pero yo estaba aislado sentado pensando en lo que me hizo ese tipo, yo estaba en crisis muy inquieto pensado y pensando sin poder superarlo, dias despues el tipo vino como si nada y hablaba conmigo pero yo lo via con los mismos ojos las cosas ya no eran iguales lo primero que venia a mi mente fue lo que me hizo, al final los psiquiatras me pusieron medicinas y ahora estoy calmado ya no hay pensamientos obsesivos ni ira descontrolada.

Buenos dias gente, ya que ustedes son los que saben, me gustaria saber que opinan de esto. Tengo 24 años, trabajo fijo y estoy ahorrando para un autito, en este momento cuanto con 2500 dolares. Con mi papa nos metimos en un plan de yaris a 84 cuotas. El plan esta 100% binificado el patentamiento y tuvimos 3 cuotas sin interes. Lo que estamos haciendo es pagando miti miti ya que mi viejo me lo regala :) La idea era sacarlo el año que viene, ya que en marzo estimo tener 8 mil dolores y el tipo me dijo que con eso ya lo licitaba.
Ahora los detalles, hay una cuota “pura” que el valor es menor y es el que t toman cuando licitas.
Yo quiero saber si en lo que me meti esta bien, yo puedo afrontar las cuotas y la verdad es que me parece una buena forma de invertir mi plata ya que necesito un auto y con lo que tengo se que no llego. Gracias y saludos estimados

2023.06.04 16:36 loucosporbichinhos Gato Bengal: Saiba mais sobre essa raça incrível de felino!

Gato Bengal: Saiba mais sobre essa raça incrível de felino!
Gato Bengal: Saiba mais sobre essa raça incrível de felino! O gato Bengal é uma raça relativamente nova de gato doméstico, criado através do cruzamento de um gato doméstico com um gato-leopardo asiático.
Essa raça única de gato é conhecida por sua aparência exótica, personalidade distinta e comportamento único. Neste artigo, vamos explorar a história, o comportamento, a personalidade e as características físicas do gato Bengal.
História do Gato Bengal
O gato Bengal foi criado pela primeira vez em meados da década de 1960 por Jean Sudgen, uma criadora de gatos de Londres, Inglaterra.
Ela cruzou um gato doméstico com um gato-leopardo asiático (Prionailurus bengalensis), que é um gato selvagem encontrado na Ásia.
Sudgen estava interessada em criar um gato que tivesse o visual de um gato selvagem, mas com a personalidade e o comportamento de um gato doméstico.
Após décadas de cruzamentos seletivos, a raça do gato Bengal foi finalmente reconhecida pela Associação Internacional de Gatos em 1991.
Desde então, a popularidade do gato Bengal cresceu significativamente e agora é uma das raças de gato mais populares em todo o mundo.
Comportamento
O comportamento do gato Bengal é uma das características mais distintas dessa raça. Esses gatos são conhecidos por serem altamente ativos, brincalhões e curiosos.
Eles têm muita energia e precisam de muita atividade física e estimulação mental para se manterem alegres.
Os gatos Bengal são extremamente inteligentes e podem ser treinados facilmente, o que os torna uma ótima escolha para donos que desejam um gato que possa aprender truques e comandos.
Esses gatos também são altamente sociais e gostam de estar perto de seus donos. Eles são conhecidos por seguir seus donos pela casa e gostam de receber atenção e carinho.
Além disso, os gatos Bengal são muito vocalizantes e têm um miado distinto que é mais parecido com o som de um gato selvagem do que com o miado de um gato doméstico.
Eles também são muito brincalhões e gostam de perseguir brinquedos e jogar jogos de perseguição.
Personalidade
A personalidade do gato Bengal é uma das razões pelas quais essa raça é tão popular entre os donos de gatos.
Esses gatos são conhecidos por serem afetuosos e amorosos com seus donos, mas também têm uma personalidade forte e independente.
Os gatos Bengal são extremamente leais a seus donos e podem ser bastante protetores em relação à sua família. Eles podem ficar territorialmente agressivos se sentirem que sua casa ou seus donos estão sendo ameaçados.
No entanto, com a socialização adequada e a introdução gradual a novas pessoas e animais, os gatos Bengal geralmente são amigáveis e gentis.
Além disso, os gatos Bengal são muito curiosos e adoram explorar. Eles podem escalar facilmente objetos e são conhecidos por saltar alturas incríveis.
Essa habilidade pode ser um desafio para os donos de gatos Bengal, que precisam ter cuidado ao escolher móveis e objetos em suas casas.
É importante fornecer arranhadores e outros objetos para que esses gatos possam expressar seus comportamentos naturais de escalada e arranhão.
Além disso, os gatos Bengal são conhecidos por serem gatos muito limpos e cuidadosos com sua higiene pessoal. Eles passam muito tempo lambendo seus pelos e são bastante exigentes em relação à limpeza de sua caixa de areia.
Características físicas
A aparência do gato Bengal é uma das suas características mais distintivas. Esses gatos têm uma aparência exótica e selvagem, com pelagem macia e brilhante, geralmente em tons de marrom, preto e cinza.
Eles têm manchas, listras e rosetas que se assemelham à pelagem do gato-leopardo asiático.
Os gatos Bengal têm um corpo musculoso e atlético, com pernas longas e patas grandes. Seus olhos são grandes e redondos, geralmente em tons de verde, amarelo ou ouro.
Eles têm orelhas pequenas e arredondadas, e suas cabeças são ligeiramente maiores em relação ao corpo.
Esses gatos têm um tamanho médio a grande, com peso variando de 4 a 7 kg para fêmeas e 5 a 9 kg para machos. Sua expectativa de vida é semelhante à de outros gatos domésticos, geralmente variando de 12 a 16 anos.
Cuidados com a raça
Os gatos Bengal não requerem cuidados especiais em relação à sua saúde, mas precisam de atenção especial em relação à sua dieta e atividade física.
Eles são animais muito ativos e precisam de muita atividade física e estimulação mental para manter-se saudáveis e felizes.
É essencial fornecer brinquedos e jogos que permitam que os gatos Bengal sejam ativos e se exercitem.
Os proprietários também devem fornecer arranhadores e outros objetos que permitam que esses gatos expressem seus comportamentos naturais de arranhão e escalada.
Além disso, a dieta do gato Bengal deve ser balanceada e saudável. Eles precisam de uma dieta rica em proteínas, e os proprietários devem evitar alimentá-los com alimentos processados e ricos em carboidratos.
Por fim, a higiene pessoal do gato Bengal é importante. Eles precisam de banhos regulares e de cuidados com sua pelagem, especialmente durante as épocas de muda de pelo.
Eles também precisam de cuidados regulares com suas unhas e dentes para garantir sua saúde e bem-estar geral.
Gato Bengal filhote
Os gatos Bengal são uma raça de gato exótica e encantadora, conhecida por sua aparência distinta e comportamento ativo e afetuoso.
Os gatos Bengal filhotes são particularmente adoráveis e fascinantes, com suas listras ousadas e personalidades curiosas.
Nos próximos parágrafos, vamos explorar tudo o que você precisa saber sobre os filhotes dessa raça, desde sua aparência e temperamento até suas necessidades.
Aparência do Gato Bengal Filhote
Os gatos Bengal filhotes são notáveis por sua aparência exótica e única. Eles possuem uma pelagem curta e densa, com listras contrastantes em marrom, preto, laranja ou creme.
Seus olhos são grandes e expressivos, geralmente em tons de verde ou amarelo, e suas orelhas são pontudas e alertas.
Uma das características mais marcantes dos gatos Bengal filhotes é sua aparência de filhote de leopardo. Eles são frequentemente comparados a pequenos leopardos, graças às suas listras ousadas e olhos grandes e redondos.
À medida que crescem, sua aparência distinta se torna ainda mais pronunciada, tornando-os um dos gatos mais fascinantes e atraentes do mundo.
Temperamento
Além de sua aparência distinta, os gatos Bengal filhotes são conhecidos por sua personalidade curiosa e afetuosa. Eles são animais incrivelmente ativos e enérgicos, com um espírito brincalhão e exploratório.
Eles adoram correr, pular e brincar, e são particularmente adeptos a jogos de busca e captura. Os gatos Bengal filhotes também são animais muito inteligentes e independentes.
Eles são capazes de aprender truques e comandos facilmente, e adoram interagir com seus donos.
No entanto, eles também valorizam seu espaço pessoal e independência, e podem ser um pouco teimosos ou desafiadores em certas situações.
Com cuidados adequados e atenção regular, os gatos Bengal filhotes podem se tornar companheiros amorosos e leais para seus proprietários.
Eles são animais incrivelmente afetuosos e gostam de estar perto de seus donos, frequentemente seguindo-os pela casa e procurando atenção.
Necessidades
Como qualquer outro gato, os gatos Bengal filhotes exigem cuidados e atenção adequados para manter sua saúde em dia.
É essencial fornecer-lhes uma dieta balanceada e saudável, com alimentos de alta qualidade e nutrientes adequados. Além disso, é preciso fornecer-lhes água fresca e limpa regularmente, para garantir que estejam sempre hidratados.
Os gatos Bengal filhotes também requerem estímulo físico e mental adequado, para manter seu bem-estar. Eles adoram brincar e explorar, então certifique-se de fornecer-lhes brinquedos e áreas de jogo seguras.
Além disso, certifique-se de passar tempo suficiente brincando e interagindo com eles, para mantê-los ativos e engajados. Outra parte fundamental dos cuidados com os gatos Bengal filhotes é a higiene e cuidado com sua pelagem.
Como mencionei anteriormente, os gatos Bengal filhotes têm uma pelagem densa e curta, com listras contrastantes.
É crucial escovar sua pelagem regularmente, para remover qualquer sujeira, pelos soltos e manter sua pelagem saudável e brilhante.
Além disso, é recomendável banhar o gato Bengal filhote ocasionalmente, usando produtos de limpeza específicos para gatos, para remover qualquer sujeira ou detritos da pelagem.
Também é necessário lembrar que os gatos Bengal filhotes são animais muito sociais e precisam de interação regular com outros gatos ou com humanos.
Se você está pensando em adotar um filhote dessa raça, considere adotar dois gatos para que possam brincar e interagir entre si.
Caso contrário, certifique-se de passar tempo suficiente interagindo com eles, brincando e fornecendo o estímulo necessário.
Além disso, é importante manter seus gatos Bengal filhotes atualizados em seus exames de rotina com um veterinário.
Isso inclui vacinações e testes regulares para detectar problemas de saúde potenciais, bem como visitas regulares para check-ups gerais. Isso ajudará a garantir que seu gato Bengal filhote esteja saudável ao longo de sua vida.
Criação responsável
Se você está considerando adotar um gato Bengal filhote, é preciso lembrar que esses animais são uma raça exótica e, portanto, devem ser criados com responsabilidade e cuidado.
Infelizmente, alguns criadores podem tentar tirar proveito da popularidade desses animais, criando gatos Bengal filhotes em condições desumanas ou negligenciando sua saúde e bem-estar.
Ao procurar um criador de gatos Bengal filhotes, certifique-se de fazer uma pesquisa cautelosa e escolher um criador respeitável e ético.
Isso inclui verificar a reputação do criador, visitar suas instalações pessoalmente e perguntar sobre o histórico de saúde dos gatos Bengal filhotes.
Também é essencial lembrar que adotar um gato Bengal filhote é uma responsabilidade a longo prazo. Esses animais podem viver até 15 anos ou mais, e exigem cuidados e atenção regulares durante toda a sua vida.
Certifique-se de estar disposto e capaz de fornecer esses cuidados antes de adotar um gato Bengal filhote.
Gato Bengal preço
Em geral, os gatos Bengal de linhagem pura, com pedigree e padrão de pelagem de alta qualidade, podem custar de R$ 3.000 a R$ 15.000 ou mais.
Já os gatos Bengal de linhagem mista ou sem pedigree, geralmente são mais baratos e podem ser encontrados por preços a partir de R$ 1.000 a R$ 2.000.
Conclusão
O gato Bengal é uma raça única de gato doméstico que tem crescido em popularidade nos últimos anos. Esses gatos são conhecidos por sua aparência exótica, personalidade distinta e comportamento único.
Eles são altamente ativos e curiosos, exigindo muita atividade física e estímulos para se manterem contentes.
Os gatos Bengal são animais leais e afetuosos com seus donos, mas também têm um espírito independente que pode ser desafiador para alguns proprietários.
Eles exigem uma quantidade significativa de atenção e interação, mas também valorizam sua independência e espaço próprio.
Como qualquer outra raça de gato, o gato Bengal requer cuidados e atenção adequados para manter seu bem-estar.
É fundamental fornecer-lhes uma dieta balanceada e saudável, estimulação física e mental adequada, além de cuidados com sua higiene pessoal.
Embora os gatos Bengal possam ser mais ativos e exigentes do que outras raças de gato, eles também são animais incrivelmente inteligentes e afetuosos.
Com os cuidados adequados e a interação regular, eles podem se tornar companheiros amorosos e duradouros para seus proprietários.
Se você está procurando por um animal de estimação ativo e afetuoso, o gato Bengal pode ser a escolha perfeita para você.
No entanto, é preciso lembrar que a adoção de um animal de estimação é uma decisão importante e deve ser considerada cuidadosamente.
Certifique-se de pesquisar a raça e entender suas necessidades antes de tomar a decisão de trazer um gato Bengal para casa.
Com sua aparência exótica, personalidade distinta e comportamento único, o gato Bengal é um dos gatos mais fascinantes e encantadores do mundo. https://loucosporbichos.com.bgato-bengal/?feed_id=71&_unique_id=647ca14f5b5d4

2023.06.04 16:18 PabloCT1138 El rechazo...

Como andan mis queridos? Cada tanto suelo postear algúna que otra situación, de las que nos suele pasar a todos en algún momento.
El tema a discutir o, mejor dicho, charlar es el siguiente: Muchos de los posts que andan por los otros foros hablando sobre el rechazo se centran en la parte rechazada.....bien.... mis ganas son las de conocer sus historias o posiciones, esta vez, el lado del rechazador.
Para ser lo más claro posible: No me refiero a un rechazo de una cita de app, o de alguien que viste una vez y ya no ves más (o sea, un random)... me refiero a un rechazo donde es más que probable que te cruzes a esa persona rechazada; sino todos los dias, al menos dos veces por semana ( e insisto, no cuenta las presencias virtuales, cof cof redes sociales cof cof).
Yo tengo mi historia, pero la voy a contar ( aunque no es muy larga) si les interesa.
En lo posible me gustaria leer historias de rechazador, no de rechazados ( todos lo fuimos tambien en algún momento), la idea no es que sea un rant, sino el conocer como somos ante esa situación, que es sumamente incómoda.
Gracias ( PD: No! no me gusta hacer textos cortos jajajaja)

2023.06.04 14:26 notevencrazy99 A perenidade do setor de energia da bolsa no Brasil está em cheque. Sim, incluindo as transmissoras.

Introdução
O setor de energia no Brasil tem três áreas principais de atuação das companhias. São elas: geração, transmissão e distribuição. A empresa de geração produz energia, em grande parte em usinas ou plantas centralizadas em determinadas localizações propícias para isso, onde foram criadas hidrelétricas ou plantas eólicas, por exemplo. Desse modo, essa energia precisa viajar até a população, onde as transmissoras transportam a energia até infraestrutura de distribuidoras, que então transportam a energia pelos últimos quilômetros até residências, comércios e escritórios. Hoje todos os players do mercado de energia listados em bolsa, tem seus modelos de negócio e valuations sustentados por esse modelo.
https://i.imgur.com/mSY8go0.png
MMGD
Nesse cenário, entra a MMGD (Micro e Minigeração Distribuída), que nada mais é do que o consumidor gerar sua própria energia e muitas vezes ainda devolver o não utilizado para a rede em troca de créditos. Isso acontece principalmente pela utilização de painéis fotovoltaicos, com participação de 93% nessa expansão.
“A modalidade de Micro e Minigeração distribuída (MMGD) surpreende com seus números a cada ano. Em 2020, pela primeira vez, a tecnologia fotovoltaica distribuída liderou a adição de capacidade instalada no ano, com 2,5 GW instalados, superando os números de todas as outras tecnologias, inclusive de geração centralizada. Em 2021, a modalidade de MMGD continua se desenvolvendo em ritmo forte, havendo ultrapassado a marca de 6 GW no primeiro semestre do ano. A qualidade dos recursos energéticos nacionais, as elevadas tarifas finais de eletricidade e um modelo de compensação de créditos extremamente favorável tornaram o investimento em geração própria bastante rentável no Brasil. Isso levou não apenas consumidores residenciais, mas também produtores rurais, redes varejistas, bancos e indústrias a investirem em sistemas de MMGD nas modalidades local ou remoto.” - Plano Decenal de Expansão de Energia 2031
A EPE estima que a MMGD chegue a 17% da capacidade instalada em 2031, um crescimento de 16,5% a.a.
https://i.imgur.com/mozfTPj.png
A EPE ainda estima a Taxa Interna de Retorno desses investimentos em MMGD por parte do consumidor, que atualmente variam entre 15-30%, com projeção para ficarem ainda mais atraentes à medida que os custos dos painéis caem e os custos de energia sobem com novos investimentos do setor pelos players atuais. As margens de lucros dos vendedores de painéis fotovoltaicos devem cair com o tempo, à medida que esse mercado não tem fortes barreiras de entrada, tornando o preço para o consumidor final ainda mais atraente.
https://i.imgur.com/hMEaDaK.png
Futuro
Por dados da própria EPE, temos estimativas de R$300bi em novos ativos de geração e R$100bi em novos ativos de transmissão para os próximos 10 anos (crescimento de 2% a.a). Mas onde isso vai parar no longo prazo?
Os painéis fotovoltaicos são economicamente viáveis e tem uma taxa de retorno muito alta. O contra-argumento poderia ser de que o brasileiro médio não tem o capital para fazer esse investimento em sua residência ou pequeno comércio. Porém, o governo já fala em incluir esse tipo de tecnologia no programa Minha Casa Minha Vida.
Além disso, concessões de mais de 20 distribuidoras vencem a partir de 2025. E ainda não estão claras as regras para renovação, mas o governo já fala de “contrapartidas sociais”, incluindo sobre o tema de eficiência energética. O que impede o governo de impor às distribuidoras em algum momento que elas mesmas financiem painéis solares para parte da população?
Os painéis fotovoltaicos em MMGD tendem a crescer e não parece ter nada para pará-los, e pior: Eles são mais eficientes ao meio-dia, o horário com mais sol, justamente o horário em que a demanda por energia atinge o seu máximo durante o dia. Hoje esse pico é o principal produto “vendido” pelas empresas de energia, pois o governo precisa criar concessões atraentes o suficiente para remunerar o capital de projetos que estejam suficientemente dimensionados para suprir os picos.
Sobre o horário da noite, sem sol, o que acontece quando as baterias estiverem totalmente funcionais e economicamente viáveis. Sistemas como Tesla Powerwall do Elon Musk?
E quando no longo prazo essas tecnologias permitirem que o consumidor possa ter 100% da sua demanda energética suprida por sua própria infraestrutura. Sem mesmo a necessidade de se conectar as linhas de distribuição. Os custos de toda nossa infraestrutura de energia vão ser repartidos aos demais consumidores que ainda se conectam no grid, e portanto aumentar seus custos, e portanto aumentar a atratividade de investir em se desconectar do grid? Ou nós, acionistas, vamos contar com a ação e protecionismo do estado para nos proteger e punir economicamente os donos de sistemas MMGD? Nenhuma das alternativas me parece perene.
E se isso tudo se realizar, o que acontece com a percepção do mercado sobre esse setor e nossas empresas, e portanto seus valuations? E o rating das empresas de energia? E a percepção de risco dos bancos financiadores desses empreendimentos e portanto o custo de dívida das empresas? Me parece o início de um ciclo desvirtuoso.

2023.06.04 14:14 rodrigl Medinices

Só em 2017 Medina declarou 40 mil euros ganhos em comentários na TVI e CM.
 
Para não pagar IVA e pouco IRS Medina abriu atividade como 'criação artística e literária'. Será que, não me chamando Medina, as Finanças aceitam que o meu trabalho também seja criação artística? O software que faço tem mais de arte do que fazer comentários na televisão.
 
O Director da TVI que lhe arranjou esse tacho é Sérgio de Figueiredo, com quem a CML (de Medina) fez um contrato de 13 dias por ajuste direto por 30 mil euros e depois deu um 'apoio' de 350 mil euros à empresa do filho. Depois quis dar-lhe um contrato de 5800 euros por mês, mas como fez muito barulho teve que cancelar.
 
Soube-se agora que a CML contratou um assessor a quem pagou 10 mil euros, e que preparava os comentários da TVI do Medina.
 
Medina só tentou desmentir esta ultima parte, porque o resto são factos, contratos assinados.
"Não contratei assessoria específica às minhas participações na comunicação social"
 
Reparem no "assessoria específica" :D ou seja ele não diz que não fez a CML pagar coisas particulares dele. Até porque parece haver mails que provam isso.
Diz que o contrato não foi só para isso. Ou seja basta dizer que o tal assessor também preparou um discurso como presidente da CML e já pode dizer que não foi "assessoria especifica aos comentários"

2023.06.04 14:10 Colt_Leasure Have you ever heard of The Triangle Game?

1
We underestimate the trials the dead have gone through.
This obvious mistake leads to avoidable missteps in life. It is still all too common.
When my Grandfather passed away, I inherited a house in the mountains. The view was breathtaking. It had a sweeping vista of infinite pine trees. The place was nowhere near as large as the properties surrounding it.
It was a summer home for him and my Grandma. The interior of it contained many of his items. This included tobacco pipes, cabinets of obscure teas, and cupboards of whiskey bottles.
One Saturday evening I went through the attic and found a dozen stacks of boxes. The majority of them remained unlabeled. Several contained pulp paperbacks and stacks of old photos. Towards the end of his life, he gave up his old pastimes of hunting and fishing. He stayed at home and watched old game shows instead.
I tried to clean the roof space in one day. I found myself unable to complete it before tiring and going to bed.
The next morning I resumed the activity. It was no longer about trying to declutter the area and fill it with my own possessions. It was now a way to learn more about the man.
All I knew about his reputation was how he had served in World War II. My family told me how he was as short on words as he was on patience.
I found an old newspaper article, dated 1983. There were other period pieces around it. The topics varied. This included the US invasion of Grenada and the debut of Cabbage Patch Kids dolls. A device known as the mobile phone received a mention.
Yet what caught my attention was the first piece. I brushed aside cobwebs to find it buried underneath a pile of cardboard with burnt edges.
The picture was of my Grandfather, Roy Davies. He held a check for fifty thousand dollars. This was an amount I later found out equaled to one hundred and fifty two thousand in today’s money. The mystery of how he could afford the place he gave me was no longer one worth pondering.
The wall behind him had an illustration of a ramshackle house on a hill. The title of the write-up was NORTHERN CALIFORNIA MAN WINS IN THE PILOT FOR NEW SHOW ‘THE TRIANGLE GAME.’
I read the five hundred word account. It detailed how he flew to Los Angeles to be a participant in an allegedly syndicated program. There were two other people he competed against. The editorial feature did not go into detail about what the goal of the game was. How to win or get disqualified was unknown to me. Still Still, my Grandfather walked out a much richer man before he flew back home.
It did mention the couple he played against, a man called James Grover and a woman named Daisy Francis.
I flipped the article. I found were words written in orange ink with a marker on the back, CC ENVELOPE EXIT.
I searched online for the triangle game. I found variations on the pastime ‘I Spy’ first. Players would spot triangular items in their immediate vicinity. I discovered a few board games, along with IQ-related quizzes.
No information was available about a television broadcast.
2
It took almost a month of research to find where James Grover lived.
I managed to find his house by paying for a background checking website. He had gotten a criminal charge for running a red light in front of a cop. Otherwise his record was clean. That single infraction allowed me to find him since it put him in that specific database.
I stood outside his red brick house in a suburb. It was a Wednesday afternoon in a neighborhood located in an upscale part of Illinois.
Frost caked the lawns near the heated sidewalk I stood on. I imagined the place to be serene in the summertime, even if it was a vacant-seeming region now.
A stretch of abodes stood before me without their lights on. Nervousness coursed through me. The idea of having traveled all this way for the information to be wrong made me anxious.
I walked along the concrete pathway towards his front door. I stepped on a creaky porch. I set aside my awareness of the likely pending disappointment and knocked.
A shuffling of feet was on the other side of the entrance. as well as A remote control clicked as the volume of a television blaring a news report got turned down.
He answered. The man fit the correct age range I calculated he would fall into. He wore a flannel jacket and slacks, He had on a blue pair of slippers. His gray mustache bristled as he saw me.
“James Grover?” I asked.
“If you’re trying to sell me something I’m not interested.”
“I’m very sorry to bother you sir, and I promise I won’t take up much of your time. I’m here to ask if you would be willing to let me ask you a few questions about something you might know about. See, I make documentaries for a living, and I have concluded that you might be able to help me.”
I could not take a good photograph when asked, but it was a stringent falsehood I conveyed well in the moment.
In reality, I was a podcaster. The term documentarian, though not as modern, seemed more legitimate. Especially to an older gentleman.
“Alright,” he said after a moment’s hesitation. “What are you making a movie on? Also, where’s your film crew?”
“I gleaned that you were the type to prefer remaining anonymous. The conversation‘s recorded. This will be with your consent, of course. The subject I want to discuss with you involves the triangle game.”
Grover took a few steps away from the threshold and broke eye contact with me as his lips pursed. His eyes wandered over to the corner of his living room, and he brought his gaze back to mine.
“Why do you want to know about that?”
“Because I can’t find anything about it anywhere,” I said. “I’ve even been to the National Archives of Game Show history in search of it. It’s as though it never existed. I know it did because I found this article.”
As I brandished the piece of writing to him, his eyes bulged as he focused and scanned the text.
“Ahh,” he said as he took in a deep inhalation, “I remember that man. Tell you what, come on in. Would you like some coffee?”
I took a seat in one of his recliners as I asked him a few generic questions about his life.
James spent a considerable time of his youth in North Lawndale, one of the rougher places in Chicago. He escaped his impoverished upbringing by pursuing a career as an inventory clerk. He worked his way up to management in a warehousing company.
“I beat the odds in a big way,” he said as he folded his hands and sat across from me.
“So, what can you tell me about your experience on set that day? Do you know about anything that happened post-production?”
“They made us sign contracts where we would promise not to talk about what we went through with anyone. Still, I’m at the point where I’m not very worried, or I don’t think I should be. I was much younger then, about your age. I lived at the boxing gym and had dreams of going pro. Of course that didn’t happen, but when I wasn’t training I was drinking and doing stupid things that young men do. Bar brawls I didn’t deserve to get away with but somehow did. My mother watched a lot of game shows. Without my knowledge, she submitted my name for consideration to become a contestant. She thought it would make me a better person if I had some kind of hope for helping the family. One besides crushing peoples noses for a living.”
“How did she hear about it?”
“I have no idea. I wish I asked her.”
“How did you find out you were going to go on?”
“Back then, everything was a phone call, so that’s what we got. They flew me out there, I took a taxi to get to the set. It was not a traditional studio. The place was closer to a factory with a fake space ship built inside of it. In the center of the room was a neon triangle with the same spaciousness of a house.”
“How was the game played?”
“Before it started, they told us to write down three things we were good at. I put boxing, organizational skills, and running. Daisy listed hers as poker, math, and long distance swimming. Roy - that was his name, the person in the picture you showed me - put outdoor survival, shooting, and cooking. We would stand at each point of the triangle. We’d get asked a question by the host, and we had three minutes to answer it. If we got it right, they gave us a reward being able to attack one of the other two people using the skill sets we put down. The goal is to make the other two quit by getting enough questions correct. Of course, we went into the game blind to the rule set. Otherwise I may have chosen the most aggressive ability imaginable. Roy won because he chose aptitude with a firearm, which trumps any martial art, whether I like it or not.”
James lifted his pant leg and showed me a scar above his knee.
“At least he was kind enough to not make it a fatal blow,” he said.
I showed him the words written on the back of the newspaper clipping. He shrugged and told me he was unaware, dismissive of it as someone’s scrapped note.
I asked him if he remembered the name of the host or could give me a physical description.
“I don’t remember anything about what we called him, if he even told us what he went by. His hair was black and a pompadour style. He wore a purple suit with a bright orange tie.”
“Two last questions,” I said. “Do you know what happened to Daisy, if she’s still alive? Also, do you recall the address of the place where they filmed the game?”
“I wrote to Daisy twice a year before she vanished. We did have one conversation over the phone, and she told me that bad luck was going to follow the losers of that pilot. There was no media coverage about her passing that I ever saw. As far as the location, sure. I wrote it down in a journal I kept with me even when I traveled. I used to keep track of my workouts and diet regiment back then. Let me grab it.”
3
The location where the Triangle Game took place four decades earlier stood in a squalid part of the city.
I passed the ruins of the old LA zoo on my way to the spot. I contemplated how the sight I was about to take in could not get any stranger. I was wrong.
The building was five stories, but the front only had a trio of stained glass windows. Bullet holes surrounded the casements. The place had a nave roof and flying buttresses on both sides. Multi-colored graffiti littered the outside.
It sat in a neighborhood filled with homeless people who slept on benches.
I went there mid-afternoon. I approached the front and found two locked doors. I scaled around back. I stepped over heaps of trash in the process, and saw an opening in the form of a hole large enough to crawl into.
A surge of adrenaline hit me me as I belly crawled through. I was taking a bet on how there were no cameras, guards or residents who would make a scene out of my trespassing.
It is amazing the rules one will bend for the sake of new content on social media, I opined as I made way into the space.
I turned on the flashlight of my phone and saw nothing but an enormous dusty chamber made of concrete.
I moved into the next room. A hoarders lifetime supply of broken antiques sat. Spray painted devil-horned faces grinned from the ceiling.
What caught my attention the most was a camera’s tripod. It stood alone in the far left corner.
I approached it to get a better look. I kicked aside a bunch of cans. As they clattered away, I looked down and saw a pointed tip of something drawn on the ground.
I removed most of the trash by shoving the majority of it aside and saw what was underneath.
The large triangle, which took up most of the flooring in the chamber, was still there after all these years.
In the center of it was a thin line of blood. I crouched down and peered at it.
The fluid was still wet, and a horrid stench met me. I gagged and recoiled, and in my backing away, my shoulder bumped against a dusty and discarded shelf.
Gunfire rang out.
I did not know if it was outside or near me, but I did not wish to find out. I exited the way I came in with a relentless sprint and drove as far away as I could.
4
A year later, I was finally wrapping up my recording of the podcast. I titled it ‘Three Ways to Die.’
While the name of the series was quite sensational, I felt the story merited a bit of clickbait. I had no followers and was unsure of how it would perform.
I reasoned that giving the story any publicity I could would help me find the lost piece of media. Even if it was on the cutting room floor of that very space I had to leave.
I went to call Grover, to try and collect an email address so I could send him the pre-uploaded production.
A woman answered.
“You’re looking for my father. He lost his life six months ago. Someone killed him. I would appreciate it if you got rid of this number.”
She ended the call less than a second after the last word. She wrote me off as an insurance agent looking to take advantage of a grieving family member.
I paced around my room. Although I did not know him well, I had come to like him, and his gruesome end was not one he deserved. I researched crime news to find out what had happened to him, to no avail.
The newspaper piece I had collected that fateful day sat at the edge of my desk.
I lifted it towards me and flipped it over again. I stared at the words — CC ENVELOPE EXIT.
The sentence was nonsensical. I had applied my own meanings to the gibberish phrase. Like it was a cryptic and silly way of saying ‘outgoing mail.’
I do not know whether it was desperation, a creative inclination or an admixture of both. I decided to run it through an anagram generator I had searched for on the web.
It came up with many phrases, some of them surreal, but the one that popped out to me was EXPECT VIOLENCE.
My stomach turned as I realized how my own personal investigation yielded nothing. I opened the window and was soon exposed to some fresh Sierra air, which was therapeutic but not curative.
I decided to take a long walk. I had been sedentary over the last week due to intensive editing. I figured a jaunt would help me smooth a few psychological knots things out.
I slid my closet door open to try and find a pair of sweat pants.
The sound of thunder reverberated outside. I stared out to find the sky had become overcast.
The closet door creaked even louder than I could remember it having been before.
Orange ties hung on the rack, and a triangle painted a pastel green was visible behind it.

The picture was of my Grandfather, Roy Davies. He held a check for fifty thousand dollars. This was an amount I later found out equaled to one hundred and fifty two thousand in today’s money. The mystery of how he could afford the place he gave me was no longer one worth pondering.
The wall behind him had an illustration of a ramshackle house on a hill. The title of the write-up was NORTHERN CALIFORNIA MAN WINS IN THE PILOT FOR NEW SHOW ‘THE TRIANGLE GAME.’
I read the five hundred word account. It detailed how he flew to Los Angeles to be a participant in an allegedly syndicated program. There were two other people he competed against. The editorial feature did not go into detail about what the goal of the game was. How to win or get disqualified was unknown to me. Still Still, my Grandfather walked out a much richer man before he flew back home.
It did mention the couple he played against, a man called James Grover and a woman named Daisy Francis.
I flipped the article. I found were words written in orange ink with a marker on the back, CC ENVELOPE EXIT.
I searched online for the triangle game. I found variations on the pastime ‘I Spy’ first. Players would spot triangular items in their immediate vicinity. I discovered a few board games, along with IQ-related quizzes.
No information was available about a television broadcast.

It took almost a month of research to find where James Grover lived.
I managed to find his house by paying for a background checking website. He had gotten a criminal charge for running a red light in front of a cop. Otherwise his record was clean. That single infraction allowed me to find him since it put him in that specific database.
I stood outside his red brick house in a suburb. It was a Wednesday afternoon in a neighborhood located in an upscale part of Illinois.
Frost caked the lawns near the heated sidewalk I stood on. I imagined the place to be serene in the summertime, even if it was a vacant-seeming region now.
A stretch of abodes stood before me without their lights on. Nervousness coursed through me. The idea of having traveled all this way for the information to be wrong made me anxious.
I walked along the concrete pathway towards his front door. I stepped on a creaky porch. I set aside my awareness of the likely pending disappointment and knocked.
A shuffling of feet was on the other side of the entrance. as well as A remote control clicked as the volume of a television blaring a news report got turned down.
He answered. The man fit the correct age range I calculated he would fall into. He wore a flannel jacket and slacks, He had on a blue pair of slippers. His gray mustache bristled as he saw me.
“James Grover?” I asked.
“If you’re trying to sell me something I’m not interested.”
“I’m very sorry to bother you sir, and I promise I won’t take up much of your time. I’m here to ask if you would be willing to let me ask you a few questions about something you might know about. See, I make documentaries for a living, and I have concluded that you might be able to help me.”
I could not take a good photograph when asked, but it was a stringent falsehood I conveyed well in the moment.
In reality, I was a podcaster. The term documentarian, though not as modern, seemed more legitimate. Especially to an older gentleman.
“Alright,” he said after a moment’s hesitation. “What are you making a movie on? Also, where’s your film crew?”
“I gleaned that you were the type to prefer remaining anonymous. The conversation‘s recorded. This will be with your consent, of course. The subject I want to discuss with you involves the triangle game.”
Grover took a few steps away from the threshold and broke eye contact with me as his lips pursed. His eyes wandered over to the corner of his living room, and he brought his gaze back to mine.
“Why do you want to know about that?”
“Because I can’t find anything about it anywhere,” I said. “I’ve even been to the National Archives of Game Show history in search of it. It’s as though it never existed. I know it did because I found this article.”
As I brandished the piece of writing to him, his eyes bulged as he focused and scanned the text.
“Ahh,” he said as he took in a deep inhalation, “I remember that man. Tell you what, come on in. Would you like some coffee?”
I took a seat in one of his recliners as I asked him a few generic questions about his life.
James spent a considerable time of his youth in North Lawndale, one of the rougher places in Chicago. He escaped his impoverished upbringing by pursuing a career as an inventory clerk. He worked his way up to management in a warehousing company.
“I beat the odds in a big way,” he said as he folded his hands and sat across from me.
“So, what can you tell me about your experience on set that day? Do you know about anything that happened post-production?”
“They made us sign contracts where we would promise not to talk about what we went through with anyone. Still, I’m at the point where I’m not very worried, or I don’t think I should be. I was much younger then, about your age. I lived at the boxing gym and had dreams of going pro. Of course that didn’t happen, but when I wasn’t training I was drinking and doing stupid things that young men do. Bar brawls I didn’t deserve to get away with but somehow did. My mother watched a lot of game shows. Without my knowledge, she submitted my name for consideration to become a contestant. She thought it would make me a better person if I had some kind of hope for helping the family. One besides crushing peoples noses for a living.”
“How did she hear about it?”
“I have no idea. I wish I asked her.”
“How did you find out you were going to go on?”
“Back then, everything was a phone call, so that’s what we got. They flew me out there, I took a taxi to get to the set. It was not a traditional studio. The place was closer to a factory with a fake space ship built inside of it. In the center of the room was a neon triangle with the same spaciousness of a house.”
“How was the game played?”
“Before it started, they told us to write down three things we were good at. I put boxing, organizational skills, and running. Daisy listed hers as poker, math, and long distance swimming. Roy - that was his name, the person in the picture you showed me - put outdoor survival, shooting, and cooking. We would stand at each point of the triangle. We’d get asked a question by the host, and we had three minutes to answer it. If we got it right, they gave us a reward being able to attack one of the other two people using the skill sets we put down. The goal is to make the other two quit by getting enough questions correct. Of course, we went into the game blind to the rule set. Otherwise I may have chosen the most aggressive ability imaginable. Roy won because he chose aptitude with a firearm, which trumps any martial art, whether I like it or not.”
James lifted his pant leg and showed me a scar above his knee.
“At least he was kind enough to not make it a fatal blow,” he said.
I showed him the words written on the back of the newspaper clipping. He shrugged and told me he was unaware, dismissive of it as someone’s scrapped note.
I asked him if he remembered the name of the host or could give me a physical description.
“I don’t remember anything about what we called him, if he even told us what he went by. His hair was black and a pompadour style. He wore a purple suit with a bright orange tie.”
“Two last questions,” I said. “Do you know what happened to Daisy, if she’s still alive? Also, do you recall the address of the place where they filmed the game?”
“I wrote to Daisy twice a year before she vanished. We did have one conversation over the phone, and she told me that bad luck was going to follow the losers of that pilot. There was no media coverage about her passing that I ever saw. As far as the location, sure. I wrote it down in a journal I kept with me even when I traveled. I used to keep track of my workouts and diet regiment back then. Let me grab it.”

The location where the Triangle Game took place four decades earlier stood in a squalid part of the city.
I passed the ruins of the old LA zoo on my way to the spot. I contemplated how the sight I was about to take in could not get any stranger. I was wrong.
The building was five stories, but the front only had a trio of stained glass windows. Bullet holes surrounded the casements. The place had a nave roof and flying buttresses on both sides. Multi-colored graffiti littered the outside.
It sat in a neighborhood filled with homeless people who slept on benches.
I went there mid-afternoon. I approached the front and found two locked doors. I scaled around back. I stepped over heaps of trash in the process, and saw an opening in the form of a hole large enough to crawl into.
A surge of adrenaline hit me me as I belly crawled through. I was taking a bet on how there were no cameras, guards or residents who would make a scene out of my trespassing.
It is amazing the rules one will bend for the sake of new content on social media, I opined as I made way into the space.
I turned on the flashlight of my phone and saw nothing but an enormous dusty chamber made of concrete.
I moved into the next room. A hoarders lifetime supply of broken antiques sat. Spray painted devil-horned faces grinned from the ceiling.
What caught my attention the most was a camera’s tripod. It stood alone in the far left corner.
I approached it to get a better look. I kicked aside a bunch of cans. As they clattered away, I looked down and saw a pointed tip of something drawn on the ground.
I removed most of the trash by shoving the majority of it aside and saw what was underneath.
The large triangle, which took up most of the flooring in the chamber, was still there after all these years.
In the center of it was a thin line of blood. I crouched down and peered at it.
The fluid was still wet, and a horrid stench met me. I gagged and recoiled, and in my backing away, my shoulder bumped against a dusty and discarded shelf.
Gunfire rang out.
I did not know if it was outside or near me, but I did not wish to find out. I exited the way I came in with a relentless sprint and drove as far away as I could.
4
A year later, I was finally wrapping up my recording of the podcast. I titled it ‘Three Ways to Die.’
While the name of the series was quite sensational, I felt the story merited a bit of clickbait. I had no followers and was unsure of how it would perform.
I reasoned that giving the story any publicity I could would help me find the lost piece of media. Even if it was on the cutting room floor of that very space I had to leave.
I went to call Grover, to try and collect an email address so I could send him the pre-uploaded production.
A woman answered.
“You’re looking for my father. He lost his life six months ago. Someone killed him. I would appreciate it if you got rid of this number.”
She ended the call less than a second after the last word. She wrote me off as an insurance agent looking to take advantage of a grieving family member.
I paced around my room. Although I did not know him well, I had come to like him, and his gruesome end was not one he deserved. I researched crime news to find out what had happened to him, to no avail.
The newspaper piece I had collected that fateful day sat at the edge of my desk.
I lifted it towards me and flipped it over again. I stared at the words — CC ENVELOPE EXIT.
The sentence was nonsensical. I had applied my own meanings to the gibberish phrase. Like it was a cryptic and silly way of saying ‘outgoing mail.’
I do not know whether it was desperation, a creative inclination or an admixture of both. I decided to run it through an anagram generator I had searched for on the web.
It came up with many phrases, some of them surreal, but the one that popped out to me was EXPECT VIOLENCE.
My stomach turned as I realized how my own personal investigation yielded nothing. I opened the window and was soon exposed to some fresh Sierra air, which was therapeutic but not curative.
I decided to take a long walk. I had been sedentary over the last week due to intensive editing. I figured a jaunt would help me smooth a few psychological knots things out.
I slid my closet door open to try and find a pair of sweat pants.
The sound of thunder reverberated outside. I stared out to find the sky had become overcast.
The closet door creaked even louder than I could remember it having been before.
Orange ties hung on the rack, and a triangle painted a pastel green was visible behind it.

2023.06.04 13:03 FelicitySmoak_ On This Day In Michael Jackson HIStory - June 4th

On This Day In Michael Jackson HIStory - June 4th
1970 - "The Love You Save" by The Jackson Five enters the Billboard Soul Singles chart where it will peak at #1 and remain there for 6 weeks
1984 - Michael is on the cover of US magazine

https://preview.redd.it/mupw1cqdcv3b1.jpg?width=194&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=22341f64768e6df605942a9ad15af47ffbab0207
1990 - Thousands of Michael Jackson fans pour onto the grounds of St John's Hospital and Health Center in Santa Monica, Los Angeles to support Michael who was admitted last night suffering from severe chest pains.
Doctors today ran a battery of tests to find out what ails him.
“He’s undergoing several important tests today,” said Jackson spokesman Bob Jones. “I don’t think it was a heart attack. He just experienced some discomfort. He had been feeling bad the past two or three days.”
2009 - Michael attended rehearsals and goes to Dr Klein’s in Beverly Hills
2013 - Jackson v AEG Trial Day 23
Katherine was at court with Austin Brown.
Paul Gongaware Testimony
AEG cross
He was asked about Michael's final two rehearsals at Staples Center. Gongaware couldn't recall details about the first one. He said he wasn't particularly attentive about Jackson's health & appearance. This was the 1st rehearsal after Jackson missed one 4 days earlier. Gongaware said Michael rehearsed on June 23rd. "He was fine," Gongaware described, saying his understanding was that Michael was okay. Gongaware said he wasn't being specifically attentive on the 23rd because he didn't think there was a problem with Michael. Michael rehearsed on Jun 24th. Gongaware watched "Thriller" in its entirety, it was the 1st time they were using costume. He said Michael seemed fine.

Putnam: "Was he engaged?"
Gongaware: "Yes"
Putnam: "Any physical issues?"
Gongaware: "No, I didn't see any, He did a good rehearsal"
On June 25th, Gongaware got a call from Randy saying he had a call from DiLeo asking him to go to Michael's house because something was going on. As Randy got to Michael's house, an ambulance was leaving and Randy followed it to the hospital. Gongaware said. "I didn't know what was going on"
"At that point I was apprehensive because I didn't know what was happening." Gongaware said he didn't hear anything for a while, so he called Randy to see what was going on and he said Michael had died. "I was in shock," Gongaware recalled. "The artist was gone, he just passed away. How did this happen?!". Gongaware said he no idea what caused Michael to die, never contemplated the idea of Michael Jackson dying. Gongaware talked very matter-of-factly about the day Jackson died. Gongaware said he questioned how it happened. "I called Kenny right away and told him. He was at Staples Center," Gongaware recalled. "The atmosphere at Staples was very somber."
After Michael's passing, Gongaware said they had to shut down production. He was then involved in Jackson's memorial service.
As to why This Is It was happening in London, Gongaware explained it was Michael's best market. "We didn't know how strong it would be." Putnam asked Gongaware if AEG considered a tour in the US. "No, he had all those child allegations flying, it was the wrong thing to do" he said.
Gongaware: "He didn't tour very often, I don't think he liked it very much. There were lots of things he would rather be doing". Michael never did "meet and greet, according to Gongaware
The exec said Michael came out with the phrase "This Is It" because this was the last tour he was going to do.
Michael only agreed to 50 shows, but Gongaware said AEG Live was interested in more
Gongaware said the Dangerous tour lost money due to cancellations. He said he thought HIStory nearly broke even. Gongaware worked on Dangerous, HIStory" and one Jacksons tour back in the 80s. Michael's primary concern was not making money off his shows, Gongaware said. His primary concern was with the art, the performance
"This Is It was supposed to be spectacular", Gongaware said. He would be doing 8-10 shows a month, so about 3 a week.
Gongaware said he never saw Michael take drugs. Aside from drug use in 93, Gongaware said he didn't have any other knowledge of his using drugs. "He was lively, engaged, he seemed happy," Gongaware said about Michael
Putnam asked Gongaware about the day he thought Jackson was impaired after an appointment with Dr. Arnold Klein. The questions prompted a sidebar. He said Jackson "wasn't quite the same" but didn't testify about Jackson's demeanor in detail. He was told Michael was at Dr. Klein's office. Gongaware said he was not familiar with the doctors who treated Michael. Putnam announced be had no more questions at this time
Jackson redirect
In response to Panish questions, Gongaware said This Is It was only the second tour that AEG Live would promote and produce
Panish asked if the exec was concerned about Michael.
"I certainly wanted him to do well".
Panish: "Were you concerned about his children and his family, sir?"
Gongaware: "I was concerned about him"
Panish: "How about his family and children, sir?"
Gongaware: "I supposed. I was focused on Michael"
Brian Panish asked Gongaware a couple different ways if he was concerned about Jackson's mother & children. Gongaware looked up toward the celiling and then said he'd thought about it and he was concerned about Jackson's mom & children
"I believe he was a good father," Gongaware said about Michael Jackson.
Panish: "Did you know he was a great son to his mother?"
Gongaware: "I believe he was"
Panish asked if Gongaware ever called Katherine Jackson to express his condolences. The executive said no. Gongaware said he also didn't think that he sent Katherine Jackson or Jackson's children a condolence card.
Panish: "After Michael died, did you ever send a card to his mother?"
Gongaware: 'I don't think so"
Panish: "Did you ever call her to express your condolences?"
Gongaware: "No"
Panish asked Gongaware several questions about the executive changing elements of his deposition testimony. "I believe I testified truthfully," Gongaware said. "I don't believe I changed my testimony substantially."
Panish then started pointing out what he said were inconsistencies in Gongaware's testimony
This led to questions about whether Gongaware was mistaken when he wrote in an email that AEG was paying Conrad Murray's salary. Gongaware said he didn't necessarily think he was mistaken. He also said he didn't remember writing the email. As to the email Gongaware wrote that AEG, not Michael paid Dr. Murray. Panish asked again if Gongaware recalled writing this email. He said no. Gongaware said he spent 2 days with his lawyers preparing for his deposition, one-two hours discussing the email about AEG paying Dr. Murray. Panish pointed out several answers Gongaware gave on his deposition and the changes he asked to make to the transcript after meeting with attorneys. Panish said Gongaware changed his testimony several times as a result of meeting with AEG's attorneys. Panish said Gongaware also changed his testimony again while on the stand and under oath. Panish tried to impeach Gongaware, which is a legal way to call into question the witness' credibility.
Later in the case, the judge will instruct the jurors that if they think a person lied, they may disconsider part of all of his testimony. As to the email about AEG paying Dr. Murray, Panish pointed out that Gongaware changed his answers several times throughout his testimony. One time he said the email was shorthanded, normal course of business and didn't really think it was a mistake. Yesterday, Gongaware answered the same question saying he was mistaken when he said AEG was paying Dr. Murray. Gongaware explained he thinks he said the same thing but different ways. Gongaware was also asked about a key email he wrote that has come up several other times during the trial. Talking about Murray, he wrote:
We want to remind him that it is AEG, not Michael who is paying his salary. We want him to understand what is expected of him

Panish: "Do you have any idea why you might have written that AEG is paying his salary?"
Gongaware: "No. I mean, I was mistaken there. We weren't going to pay his salary. We would have advanced the money on Michael's instructions"
Panish then asked Gongaware about Lou Ferrigno and whether he was an employee of AEG Live. Gongaware said no, reiterating his previous testimony that he made a deal with Ferrigno. He said Ferrigno would have been an independent contractor. Panish asked whether Ferrigno had a contract with AEG Live. Gongaware said he didn't know. Panish asked Gongaware if he hired Lou Ferrigno to be Michael's trainer. "I made a deal for Michael," Gongaware said. Ferrigno was an independent contractor, Gongaware said he didn't know whether Ferrigno was submitting bills to his office.
Panish: "So you stiffed Lou Ferrigno, you didn't pay the Incredible Hulk?"(Everyone in the courtroom laughed out loud)
Gongaware: "I don't know how he would get paid, if he would submit bills or not"
Panish said Gongaware testified yesterday that he was not concerned with Michael because he was working out with a trainer. Today Gongaware testified Michael was going to work out with Lou Ferrigno. Gongaware said he didn't know whether Ferrigno had an independent contract agreement or not and if he got paid. Panish inquired about AEG only paying people with fully executed contract. Gongaware said he didn't know the status of Ferrigno's contract. "I don't know specifically when Mr. Jackson saw trainers, but I believe he was seeing trainers," Gongaware explained.
Panish: "He was seeing Lou Ferrigno to be in the next Incredible Hulk?"
Gongaware: "I don't think so"
Panish said Gongaware testified he was not concerned about Michael because he was working out with Lou Ferrigno. He said he didn't say that.
"When he was sick on June 19, I didn't know what was happening," Gongaware explained. "After that, Michael was great."
Panish asked whether he ever received Conrad Murray's contract. Gongaware, when shown an email from June 16, 2009, that included Murray's contract, said he didn't generally read contracts. "Dr Murray wasn't supposed to get paid. If Michael would've signed the deal, Dr Murray would've been paid for his work in London," Gongaware said .
Panish: "You didn't have time to ready budgets, you didn't have time to read contracts, right?"
Gongaware: "I didn't read budgets early on"
Panish asked if Gongaware had any document to prove that Dr. Murray was told that anyone else, but AEG, was paying him. Gongaware didn't recall.
Panish: "Did you have anything in writing saying it was Michael, not AEG, paying Dr. Murray?"
Gongaware: "I don't know"
Gongaware said he believed Dr. Murray signed one version of the contract, but doesn't know whether the one showed to him was it. Gongaware said he knew of no document that said his company's payments to Conrad Murray were actually part of a loan to Michael. Gongaware, on the stand for the sixth day, said he didn't know what Murray assumed about who was paying him.
The jury was shown an email from Timm Wooley, the AEG accountant on Jackson's This Is It concert series sent Murray June 6, 2009:
"I am sorry for the long delay in getting this to you, but I hope that, with your input and comments, we can dispose of the agreement quickly and arrange for payment of the May & June fee installment"
Gongaware testified that although he made the deal with Murray, and that the contract was emailed to him in 2009, his court appearance was the first time he had seen it. Gongaware repeated his contention as he has throughout his testimony, that "He was working for Michael Jackson. He wasn't working for us" The contract shown to the jury said it was between AEG Live and Murray. The contract also said Murray was to "Perform the Services reasonably requested by Producers" (AEG). Trell testified earlier that this was one of several mistakes in a draft that would have been cleaned up in the final version
Panish: "You expected Dr Murray, just like Ferrigno, to get paid for services provided to AEG right sir?"
Gongaware: "He wasn't working for AEG"
Gongaware said he was tasked to make the deal, determine compensation for Dr. Murray.
Panish: "If he was Michael's personal doctor, why hire him?"
Gongaware: "I think he wanted to set up the payment. I was told to negotiate his compensation"
Panish asked Gongaware about his contention that Jackson was always able to perform and nail shows when necessary Gongaware repeated he believed when lights went on, Michael was always there. Panish pointed out Michael canceled several shows on the Dangerous tour. The lawyer cited several shows over Jackson's career that he missed: Bangkok, South America and the need to move a couple in Mexico City.
Panish then asked Gongaware about Dr. Stuart Finkelstein, who the lawyer kept referring to as Gongaware's friend of 25 years. Finkelstein, a possible witness in the trial, was on the last leg of the Dangerous tour before it was canceled. Gongaware said Dr. Finkelstein is now a drug addiction specialist. "There were two occasions where he (Dr. Finkelstein) told me he treated Michael, but never talked about Demerol or injections," Gongaware said. "I believe he's mistaken," Gongaware said if Dr. Finkelstein gave deposition to the contrary.
Panish: "Did Dr. Finkelstein tell you he put MJ on a 24 hour morphine drip?"
Gongaware: "No"
Gongaware denied that Finkelstein told him that he thought Jackson was suffering from a prescription drug addiction. He also denied that Finkelstein told him that another doctor on the Dangerous tour was giving Jackson Demerol shots. Dr. Forecast, from London, was Michael's doctor treating the artist during Dangerous tour
Gongaware said he was never alarmed about Jackson's health and said he saw him as being well
Panish: "Is safety paramount to AEG live?"
Gongaware: "Safety should always be expected"
Gongaware said he didn't know if there was a person in charge of safety at rehearsals

Panish: "In your opinion, this is a baseless, shakedown lawsuit?"
Gongaware: "I don't understand the merit in it"
Panish: "You answered interrogatories in this case blaming everything on Mrs. Jackson?"
Gongaware: "I don't recall"
Panish: "Did you sign anything in this case saying that Mrs. Jackson was trying to extort money from AEG?"
Gongaware: "I don't recall"
Regarding whether Jackson's children suffered a loss after their father's death, Gongaware said:
"I believe they suffered a great loss"
Gongaware agreed that the best recollection of what happened in 2009 is the emails, but said he remembers from his head too.
"He was always amazing," Gongaware said about Michael.
Gongaware: "I thought he was great"
Panish: "Despite Bugzee saying he was deteriorating in front of his eyes?"
Gongaware: "My eyes told me differently"
Gongaware said the demand for tickets to Michael's memorial service was huge, comparable to the demand for the This Is It tour. Gongaware said the amount of people still in line to buy tickets for This Is It could've sold out 100 shows. (ABC7)

Panish: "Do you remember what you said Elvis died of?"
Gongaware: "Heart ailment"
But Panish recalled Gongaware giving a different answer earlier on, saying he believed it was prescription drugs
Gongaware was asked about extending the This Is It tour. He was shown emails from promoters wanting Michael concerts in India, Australia. Gongaware said he would have liked the "This Is It" tour to continue, but they only had agreement for 50 shows. On 3/18/09 -- asking about MJ going to India for the show, Phillips responded:
"Thanks, Thomas. Michael will definitely be heading your way"
Gongaware said he thinks they were making plans in case Michael said ok, let's go. Email on 3/17/09 from Phillips:
"We have a 4 year plan that includes Australia, however, we have to finish London first.
Gongaware, who didn't like Australian's promoter, responded:
"Over my dead body. But let's see what he says before I p**s on his parade."

Panish: "Did you ever see Michael under the influence of prescription medication in June 2009?"
Gongaware: "When he came back from Dr. Klein's office"
Panish: "Did you investigate?"
Gongaware: "No, he was coming from his doctor, I didn't think there was a need"

Panish: "Your goal was to have as many shows as possible?"
Gongaware: "I would've liked that"
Panish: "The more shows you had, the more money AEG would've gotten, right?"
Gongaware: "Yes"
Panish asked Gongaware if he had talked to Phillips since he'd been on the witness stand. He said he hadn't discussed the case. Panish then asked if Phillips was aware Gongaware said he was content with AEG Live being #2 concert promoter behind Live Nation. Gongaware said he's expressed his opinion that AEG Live doesn't need to be the #1 promoter
AEG recross
Marvin Putnam, in re-direct, asked Gongaware if he tried to give his best testimony possible in deposition. Gongaware said "Yes"
He asked Gongaware why he never sent a condolence card to Jackson's family. "I'm not good with cards", he said. He said the memorial service was how he wanted to honor the singer. Gongaware said he spent a lot of time thinking about Jackson after his death "What I did, I tried to put the memorial show together," Gongaware said. "I think it was the best thing for me to do, commemorate his life."
Memorial was at the Staples Center with 15,000 people, live fed to Nokia Theater with 5,000 people. Gongaware said he worked directly with Randy Jackson on the memorial. It cost over a million dollars, AEG and Michael's estate bore the cost. "I'm glad I did what I did," Gongaware said, adding memorial was shown to millions of people interested in Michael around the world
Putnam tried to rebut all the claims that Gongaware changed his testimony. Gongaware said he feels he hasn't changed his answers
Putnam also showed jury Gongaware's police statement. Panish had said his comment to police was different from testimony. Panish keyed in on whether Gongaware testified that it was five weeks or two weeks between his first two conversations with Conrad Murray. The police statement said Gongaware told detectives a few weeks separated the calls regarding Murray and the contract
Another document that defense attorney Marvin Putnam showed Gongaware was Lou Ferrigno's contract. Ferrigno's three-page contract designated him as an independent contractor. It was signed by AEG accounting exec Julie Hollander. Putnam showed an independent contract agreement with Ferrigno fully executed. Julie Hollander signed on behalf of AEG effective April 27, 2009
Putnam finished his examination of Gongaware by showing him Conrad Murray's contract. Putnam questioned Gongaware about Dr. Murray's contract. The exec said Michael had to sign it in order for it to be valid. Putnam showed Gongaware language in the agreement that said Michael Jackson had to sign the agreement for it to be a valid contract. Putnam also keyed in on language that said Murray was being engaged "on behalf and at the expense of Michael Jackson"
Jackson redirect
Then it was Panish's turn again. He said there isn't a date on the contract showing when Julie Hollander signed Ferrigno's agreement. Panish questioned Gongaware about whether Ferrigno's contract may have been signed after Jackson's death. Gongaware said he didn't think he sent any contracts to Julie Hollander after Jackson's death. Panish pointed out that Hollander was signing contracts after Michaelhad died. He asked to see the original contract.
Panish: "Lou Ferrigno was retained by AEG, right?"
Gongaware: "Yes"
Panish asked Gongaware whether he thought it would have been better for him if he had reviewed documents and e-mails before testifying. "I relied on the advice of my attorney," he said. "All this legal stuff, I don't understand it," he said. Gongaware said he expected his lawyers would act on his best interest and that he testified truthfully and factually in his deposition. Panish asked if Gongaware expected to be believed now when he wouldn't recall his answers in deposition. Defendant objected, judge sustained
Panish also repeatedly referred to the number of AEG Live defense lawyers in the courtroom. He was later admonished to stop mentioning them. Putnam had noted that Katherine Jackson's side was being represented by four law firms. Panish said he didn't care if Putnam brought it up
With that Paul Gongaware was excused, subject to recall if needed.
Randy Phillips Testimony
Phillips said he met with six attorneys to prep for testimony between 6-8 times over the last two weeks, probably for about 30 hours. Phillips said he went through a bunch of emails, probably 30, from the period in question. He also read his deposition.
Randy Phillips, the chief executive officer of AEG Live, disclosed that his lawyers advised company executives not to review old e-mails before testifying. "They felt it would be better if I went in without preparation," he said, referring to his lawyers. (AEG Live lawyer Marvin Putman said outside of court that the volume of documents they would have needed to review was massive, making it impossible for them to prepare. )
Panish asked Phillips whether he was eager to tell his side of the story. "I believe you called me as a witness, so I'm here," Phillips said flatly
Phillips attended two years of law school, but didn't graduate.

Panish: "Who's higher up than you at AEG Live?"
Phillips: "No one at AEG Live"
Panish: "You are the top dog, so to speak?"
Phillips: "Yes"
Phillips reports to an executive committee who would then report to Tim Leiweke. Phillips said he doesn't know why Leiweke left the company. Phil Anschutz now belongs to the executive committee.
Panish at one point asked the executive whether he was familiar with the music industry. "Familiar with the music industry? I was working in it," Phillips replied.
Phillips said he agreed with statements attributed to him and defense attorney Marvin S. Putnam that the case was a shakedown.
Panish: "Do you think this is an extortion, shakedown lawsuit?"
Phillips: "Yes or no answer? Yes"
Panish: "Did you sign a document under the penalty of perjury saying Mrs. Jackson aided and abetted Joe Jackson to extort money from AEG?"
Phillips: "It's possible, I don't remember. I wish you wouldn't keep calling it a baseless shakedown lawsuit"
Panish: "You believe this case is an extortion, correct?"
Phillips: "Yes"

Panish: "You told Mr. Ortega that AEG checked everyone out, including Dr. Murray?"
Phillips: "I wrote in an email to Kenny Ortega that I thought Dr. Murray had been checked out. I still do, to some extent"
Panish: "You said he was a great doctor?"
Phillips: "Because that's what I was told"
Panish: "Did you write an email that AEG checked everyone out?"
Phillips: "Yes, I did"
Panish: "That was not true"
Phillips: "In retrospect, not 100%.It's what I knew at the time"

Panish: "Isn't it true you said AEG live doesn't lose money, sir?"
Phillips: "Among other things I said"
Panish showed Phillips a Forbes article where he said AEG is about making money, since they are a business.
Phillips: "Live Nation is the largest concert promoter in the world"
Panish: "Do you like being number 2?"
Phillips: "Love it! I'd rather be a successful number 2"
Panish: "You don't want to be number one?"
Phillips: "Not if it means losing money"
Phillips said Mr. Anschutz told him he's happy being a number 2
Panish asked if it was true Phillips wanted to meet with Michael to tour in 2007. Phillips answered it was the opposite, they asked for a meeting.
Jackson lawyer Brian Panish, who has been previously told by the judge not to argue with witnesses, quickly tangled with Phillips. "Please don't argue with me because then I will argue back and get in trouble," Panish told Phillips at one point. "Then that's an incentive for me," Phillips joked (everyone laughed)

Panish: "Did you learn Colony Capital purchase note on Neverland?"
Phillips: "Yes"
Panish: "Is Barrack one of principals on Colony Capital?"
Phillips: "Yes"
On 6/13/08, Phillips sent an email to Colony Capital with a summation of plans for Michael for four years:
I caution you that Michael is not fast and a total perfectionist (needs to be controlled as much as possible)
Phillips said he was referring to Michael's spending

Panish: "Neverland was his beloved home, right sir?"
Phillips: "Hard to answer, because of the things Michael told me"
When the executive appeared to crack a smile, Panish asked if he thought the proceedings were funny.
Phillips:"No, I think it's tragic"
Panish: "Do you think any of this is funny, sir?"
Phillips: "No, I think it's tragic"
Tohme Tohme was a business associate with Colony Capital, who was also working with Michael. Panish asked if Phillips thought there was a conflict of interest with Tohme working for Colony and Michael. He said "No"

2023.06.04 10:34 SufficientAdagio914 What is the definition of an association “declared to be of public utility” in Article 2b) of Ley 49/2002, de 23 de diciembre, de régimen fiscal de las entidades sin fines lucrativos y de los incentivos fiscales al mecenazgo?

I suspect a registered association (in Andalusia) exists for fraudulent purposes. It operates as a real estate business and distributes all its profit to its associates. It’s clear to me that this is illegal according to art. 2.2 of Ley 4/2006, de 23 de junio, de Asociaciones de Andalucía.
I think it’s also illegal according to Ley 49/2002, de 23 de diciembre, de régimen fiscal de las entidades sin fines lucrativos y de los incentivos fiscales al mecenazgo, but I’m slightly unsure why art. 2b) of that law specifies it to apply to associations “declared to be of public utility”. I haven’t found a definition of what it means by this distinction (as opposed to an association not so declared). It implies it’s a yes/no question about whether an association has been “declared” to be of “public utility” (rather than whether its actual purpose is of public utility). Is there a specific registry which classifies associations as “of public utility” or “not of public utility”?
It seems like this should be more of a subjective assessment about the purpose and nature of the association. Aren’t all associations are of public utility, by virtue of their definition in the Spanish Constitution?
I’ve already reported this association 3 times to Agencia Tributaria and also to the public prosecution service and the court, during 2 years, but it still carries on regardless. How can I report this circumstance to the authorities so that they will act to investigate it?
Edit: I’ve found the definition of Public Utility associations! It seems that only associations with that designation can receive tax benefits, whereas the association in question has been reported to receive tax benefits

2023.06.04 10:21 blackkook22 Mi historia

Esta fue la primera vez que tuve un corazon roto asi que iniciaré a contar mi historia.
Todo comenzo un 23 mayo por la tarde donde me encontraba en la escuela ya que gracias a un mal comportamiento en la me habian castigado haciendo servicio en la por la tarde. En mi escuela existen dos turnos, matutino y vespertino. Justo esa tarde yo me encontraba mal no solo fisicamente sino tambien emocional ya que estaba teniendo muchos problemas en casa, escuela y personales y que digamos no sabia como sobrellevarlos asi que me diriji al baño para hecharme agua en la cara pero cuando iba entrando me encontre a una persona que parecia un niño, estaba apunto de gritar cuando dijo ey nono y pude reconocer que su voz era femenina y lo unico que hicimos fue reir por la confusión, desde ahi senti algo unico, algo que nunca habia sentido con una persona despues de ese corto y gracioso encuentro me diriji a la area asignada de mi castigo, estaba tranquila junto con una compañera organizando los materiales para los chicos de cocina cuando ella llego, verdaderamente me emocione y fue gracioso porque cada vez que nos mirábamos nos reiamos hasta que nos preguntamos nuestros nombres. Tenia muchas ganas de pedirle su insta pero me daba mucha pena y justo cuando lo iba a hacer ella me lo pidio asi que nos lo pasamos y durante el resto del dia nos seguimos viendo y hablando. Pronto llego la noche y le mande mensaje estuvimos horas hablando parecia que fueramos la misma persona y como si nos conocieramos de toda la vida, pasaron los dias y nos ibamos haciendo mas cercanas pero yo empeze a sentir algo mas que amistad que para mi era un conflicto ya que yo soy una chica y jamas habia dudado de mi orientación y gustos pero era algo difícil de comprender para mi ademas de que mis padres no lo comprenderian asi que decidi tenerlo en secreto y no decirle a ella lo que sentia, siempre que nos veiamos nos abrazabamos y esos abrazos eran unicos los cuales jamas queria que terminaran y eso para mi era raro porque no me gusta dar abrazos pero con ella era diferente, paso el tiempo y cada vez mas sucedian cosas eramos inseparables hasta que llego el dia de nuestro primer beso, aun lo recuerdo muy bien, fue en los baños ya que teniamos cosa de que nos vieran fue gracioso porque empezamos bromeando con darnos un beso hasta que lo hicimos, e besado a mas personas pero con ella era diferente el sentimiento , recuerdo esa sensación de calidez,seguridad y alegria era tan hermoso ese momento, obviamente nos separamos por falta de aire, mi reacción despues de eso fue muy gracioasa ya que senti que me descompensaba y ella rio, amaba su sonrisa . Las veces que nos vimos durante ese dia solo nos mirabamos y reiamos. Pasaron los dias y todo era normal pero ninguna de las dos decia lo que sentia por la otra asi que solo dejamos pasar lo del beso. Un dia llego y me dijo que habia vuelto con su ex,yo me senti rara pero no dije nada y simplemente le dije ey que bien y asi paso el tiempo yo trataba de ligar con otros niños pero no podia olvidar lo que habia pasado pero no me quedaba de otra mas que seguir, paso un tiempo y antes de salir de vacaciones nos dimos otro beso, como olvidarlo sus besos eran de lo mejor pero yo sabia que estaba mal porque tenia a su novia y justo a ella le molestaba que fueramos amigas pero yo estaba completamente enamorada. Recuerdo que un dia me puse algo peda y le confese que ella me confundia y que me gustaba y obviamente al dia siguiente me arrepentí de haber dicho tal cosa, ella por un tiempo fingió no recordar lo que yo le habia dicho, pero despues me dijo que si lo recordaba y que mi mirada me delataba cuando la veia, para mi ella lo era todo,era mi mundo, mi casa, mi sustento, lo cual estubo mal . Llegaron las vacaciones y seguiamos hablando y cuando me dio covid ella se preocupo mucho y durante ese tiempo termino con la que era su novia y me dijo y yo la consolé para que no estuviera mal porque verdaderamente la amaba, la ama tanto que estaba dispuesta a hacer lo que fuera solo por ella. Un día simplemente me dijo que le gustaba y que queria intentarlo conmigo ese dia fui muy feliz . Todo marchaba bien,era complicado vernos por el tema de mis papás pero verdaderamente la amaba y estaba todo el tiempo pendiente de ella , ella era mi prioridad. Ella se graduo pero aun asi iba a la escuela para verme en la salidas y yo era feliz, lo apreciaba mucho sentia que le importaba y que me amaba , era algo tan lindo lo nuestro, lo que siempre habia querido. Llego el 10 de Septiembre el dia donde nos veriamos de nuevo y tambien el último. Ese dia fuimos a un antro por el cumpleaños de una de nuestras amigas, esa noche fue muy especial, solo eramos ella y yo , era como si solo estuvieramos en ese lugar a solas sin que nadie nos interrumpiera, nuestros ultimos besos, nuestros últimos abrazos , la ultima vez que nos vimos, la ultima vez que me amo con todo su corazón . La primera semana despues de eso siguio normal,todo iba bien o eso creia, luego empezo a ver comportamientos fuera de lo normal, ella simplemente tardaba en contestar los mensajes y siempre ponia la excusa de estar ocupada por el trabajo y que siempre llegaba a dormir y ya, yo como una estupida enamorada le decía que entedia pero todo fue de mal en peor, un dia viendo mi insta me meti a su perfil y vi que no aparecian las historias destacadas lo cual era extraño pero decidi ignorar, al rato siguiente una amiga me presto su cel y puede ver que ella habia subido una historia con una chica y que a ella si le salian las destacadas pero a mi no, no quise pensar mal ni nada pero mis lágrimas salieron involuntariamente tanto que uno de mis amigos mas cercanos llego a abrazarme, trate de pensar que solo era una amiga pero ese sentimiento de intuición no me dejaba en paz, asi que decidi preguntarle a un amigo en comun que onda y el me dijo que al parecer solo eran amigas pero que si las había visto mas cercanas pero también decidi ignorar eso, ese mismo dia en la noche le escribí para preguntar le y nego todo diciendo que talvez habia sido el insta que habia fallado y que le habia pasado lo mismo con mi perfil y yo toda enamorada le crei y lo deje pasar, asi pasaban los dias y ella cada vez era mas ausente, hasta que segui viendo que me ocultaba cosas y me sentia mal porque no sabia que pasaba. Llego el dia en el que me enteré que ella ya tenia a alguien mas ese dia mi corazón se rompio y llore toda la noche, no queria que ella se fuera ya que era todo lo que tenia, lo unico que me hacia sentir bien, viva , feliz , ella era mi dependencia emocional. Ese dia le dije -ultimamente ya no se nada de ti, ni lo que te pasa ni siquiera se si has conocido a alguien mas pero solo te deseo lo mejor- ella inmediatamente contesto y me dijo perdoname e estado ocupada, la misma excusa de siempre y obviamente no dijo nada sobre lo que habia dicho en el texto tan largo que habia mandado asi que simplemente no conteste mas llore y llore ,mi corazón dolia , yo ya estaba mal no solo emocionalmente, si no que tambien fisicamente me veia mal, dos semanas estuve llorando todas las noches, sin poder dormir ni comer bien, me veia tan mal que las maestras me preguntaban si estaba bien y tuve que ocultar el como me sentía paso el rato y yo era incapaz de escuchar la música que me gustaba porque teniamos los mismos gustos , todo lo que a mi me gustaba me recordaba a ella, con ella era la unica con la que podia usar un corazón morado porque para mi era especial pero ahora no puedo usarlo, tuve que soltarla pero no podia , no queria borrar sus mensajes, nuestras fotos, dejarla de seguir no podia pero yo veia como ella estaba bien con alguien mas cuando yo no lo estaba y solo moria de amor y me ahogaba en un mar de lagrimas,solo queria que volviera. Un dia ella regreso volvimos a hablar y me dijo como estaba le dije la verdad de todo y ella solo pidió perdon y yo ilusamente le djie que la perdonaba porque ella era y habia sido importante en mi vida tanto que no podia odiarla pero volvio a estar ausente hasta que una noche me mando unos audios borracha diciendo que habia sido un error volver a hablar y que no queria lastimarme que si se habia enamorado pero que sabia que iba a ser dificil por eso hizo lo que hizo que solo volvia a cometer errores y se veian reflejados en mi, despues de escuchar esos audios quede destrozada e hice lo que simpre debi hacer borrarla de todos lados. Tuve un duelo muy grande no fue facil superar y dejar de llorar, tuve que aprender a que mi estabilidad emocional no debe depender de nadie,a que me debo de amar a mi y que primero soy yo Tambien aprendi que cuando algo no esta bien hasta ahi quedo, asi que ahora despues de mucho tiempo logré sanar mi corazón aunque lleve esa cicatriz imborrable es una experiencia que me ayudo a crecer y mejorar quizas no fue lo mas lindo ni agradable pero ahora se como continuar y sanar.

2023.06.04 10:12 Drastyan27 Saludé a mi vecino el muerto

Es la 1:33 am mientras escribo, estoy sentado junto a la mesa en mi casa disfrutando de un vaso con whisky acompañándolo con hielos y recordé una pequeña anécdota que me gustaría compartirles espero les guste.
Esto fue cuando yo iba en la prepa hace ya varios años, para ser exactos 20 años atrás vivía en la casa de mis padres y tenía una amiga que vivía cerca de ahí pues era una unidad habitacional, contarles de ella sería irrelevante ya que dónde quiero que nos concentremos es en sus papás, que, como en todas familias tienen problemas y aunque nosotros como hijos no lo entendamos en una relación que no funciona lo mejor es separarse, y así fue, sus padres se separaron y ella acepto irse con su madre a vivir a Cancún, cabe señalar que dónde vivíamos era en el Estado de México así que perdimos contacto ella y yo, su papá de ella vivía con un perrito al que le gustaba salir a jugar cada vez que el señor abría la puerta y salía , vivía en solitario era un hombre sin vicios marcados ya que de vez en cuando fumaba pero no siempre tampoco tomaba vino. Una vez de regreso a la escuela una cuadra antes de llegar a mi casa me encontré con el señor de frente y lo saludé un típico buenas tardes le dije ya que nunca hablé con el señor, recuerdo que venía vestido con un pantalón café y un suéter (a pesar de hacer mucho calor) en una mano venía sosteniendo su cigarrillo y la otra la traía guardada en la bolsa de su pantalón, al momento de saludarlo el me volteo a ver, sonrió y asentó con la cabeza sin decir una sola palabra y siguió su camino tranquilo, a mi se me hizo raro porque no traía a su perro que siempre ya que lo acompañaba para todos lados pero no pensé nada en ese momento así que llegue a mi casa y llegué hacer lo mismo de siempre, acostarme en el sillón a dormír. Ese mismo día pero ya en la noche uno de mis amigos fue a tocar a mi puerta para saber si iba a salir y también para contarme algo que me puso la piel chinita. Resulta que en la casa de ese señor empezó a salir un olor a gas muy tremendo y los vecinos pensaron que el señor había salido y dejo la llave del gas de la estufa abierta ya que tocaban para que abriera pero solo se escuchaba el perro ladrar pero nadie abría, así que decidieron forzar la puerta por seguridad para meterse a la casa y cerrar la llave por seguridad, cuando abrieron la puerta el perrito salió corriendo llorando y aturdido, los vecinos se dieron cuenta que el gas no provenía de la cocina sino de una habitación! Cuando ellos se acercaron a la habitacion se dieron cuenta que el señor estaba tendido en su cama en estado de putrefacción y le faltaba una mano ( probablemente el perro se la comió dijeron los peritos) el señor había fallecido de un ataque al corazón llevaba varios días de muerto , yo estoy seguro que lo ví en la tarde y me saludó no te creo le dije a mi amigo que automáticamente se hecho a reír ya que no me creía hasta que le dije como iba vestido y me dijo que esa ropa era la que el traía puesta al momento de levantar el cuerpo de repente dejo de reír y nos quedamos callados viéndonos sin creer lo que había ocurrido, eso fue lo que pasó he visto otros casos donde han pasado estas cosas ahora se que no solo es a mí, en fin mi vaso ahora está vacío y es hora de irme a dormir si te gusto no olvides en seguirme y darles me gusta a este tipo de anécdotas para seguir escribiendo más.
