|I caught the premier of Gotham last night.
|someone needs to erase frank miller from history
|im tired of the dark knight
|Frank Miller has nothing to do with the show.
|Anyhoo, it's pretty banal so far.
|yeah and allan moore had nothing to do with the watchman movie
|That's an insane comparison.
|lol well im just saying. frank miller created the dark knight imp
|Even so, he did really good work before the Sin City movie turned him into a bizarre parody of himself.
|Year One motherfucker.
|lol i thought you were referencing the movie
|i was like
|frank miller wrote that? well that changes everything
|but alas
|i dont care about his boring noir superhero crap
|Minus his hooker fascination, obviously, because that shit had literally nothing to do with the plot.
|And Year One was a Batman arc, dingus. XD
|yeah i know:P
|pales in comparison to the movie Year One
|Uh, hardly.
|It was a funny movie, yea.
|greatest least successful allegory
|But Batman going up against regular old gangsters is always the best Batman.
|meh im over batman
|millionaire superheroes cannot be sympathetic to me
|Eh, I don't think that you're supposed to sympathize with him. He's the Hercule Poirot of comics.
|i mean. i dunno. that doesn't really work when you make him a superhero
|All his best stories are fair-play mysteries.
|yeah but you can have a great fairplay mystery without having an annoying nonsensical benevolent millionaire main character
|You can, but that character is a connecting thread.
|Once again, similar to Poirot.
|yeah.but that is true regardless of the character
|that is the entire nature of comics
|Wait, what?
|How is that the entire nature of comics?
|The point of making your character a detached rich person is to string together otherwise unrelated mysteries into a cohesive narrative.
|the nature of comics is that the character is the throughline.
|Which is exactly why characters like Poirot, Mrs Marple, and to a lesser degree Holmes (who was not technically wealthy, but had powerful benefactors) work so well.
|naw man. having a good character is what makes those work well. not having a character at all
|The wealth or connections allow you to hand wave logistics, and the detachment allows you to treat each story as a jumping-on point for new readers, because they are less likely to dwell on older continuity that way.
|yeah i understand the ingredients
|There's a reason why 'aloof and asocial' are pretty much the only defining features of every major mystery series protagonist.
|well yeah. bt that doesn't mean every combination of those qualities produces an effective leading character
|They're all the same, dude.
|naw man
|they are similar
|Yea, to an alarming degree.
|nuance is everything
|You can take any one of their mysteries, give it to one of the other protagonists, and end up with the exact same story with slightly different dialogue.
|In fact, Christie did exactly that with Poirot. Like, all the time.
|She would re-write completed stories to include the character at her editor's behest.
|yeah i mean that can all be true and batman is a lame character
|Then re-write him out of the stage versions.
|And the story was almost totally the same.
|i mean. miller is no christie. and its not just about fair play, they may be the thrust of the story, but again, nuance is everything
|And I think you're just burned out on an otherwise fine character due to what they call 'Wolverine publicity'. Batman is just 'guy solving crime with spy gadgets'. He isn't even characterized consistently between mediums.
|thats part of my issue
|i dont care about his stories
|and the character is dumb
|i mean his detective stories use his millionaire-ness to handwave constantly that don't make sense
|i mean. poirot's wealth was used logically
|to handwave
|where batmans wealth is used to handwave things that CANNOT make sense
|Like what?
|tHe second batman movie come to mind immediately
|he's rich so therefore he knows how to do things
|is the main issue
|i mean the dark knight rises was hilariously bad
|is rises the second one?
|the second one
|so dumb
|And that's never been his thing. He doesn't know stuff because money.
|no he knows stuff because he trains and is a superhero adaptability.
|these are things he has/is able to do because he is rich
|the second one is the really bad movie
|so dark knight...? what what's the second one?
|i mean the whole boat thing
|not to mention the first one is retarded
|only saving grace is its villains
|Dark Knight was the second. Dark Knight Rises was the third.
|thought the second one had a sub
|oh well
|same shit as transformers. only difference is, batman isn't as transparently stupid as transformers
|movie wise i mean
|Batman knows what he knows because he spent his adolescence training. The exact field of training varies from origin story to origin story.
|right. because of his wealth
|Dude, no.
|He doesn't have his wealth while training because he ran away.
|just because his wealth wasn't the direct means of his transportation doesnt mean its unrelated
|He gets to wherever it is he goes to, and then either lives as an urchin or gets taken in by a mentor.
|right and the reason he gains powers from this is because he is actually wealthy
|I don't follow.
|Yes, he's technically wealthy, but spends over a decade without access to said wealth.
|his wealth establishes his character as one thing. which sheds to become to a more powerful person. which is a pretty gross message.
|Sorry, what? I can't parse that.
|regardless of batmans adolescent origins. he always has the same true beginning. a wealthy orphan
|he sheds this wealth to go training. but these two things are not actually related
|Not intrinsically. Although he most often goes some place that encourages an unfettered or even ascetic lifestyle.
|so he runs away. typically great distances. his wealth, despite him having relinquished it, is still the caveat that explains his teenage self travelling to different masters.
|So you might say that his training may have included philosophies that preclude an attachment to wealth.
|lol you might have trouble backing up that argument lol
|No, his wealth isn't how he gets around to different masters. His wealth gets him out of the country. From there he is on his own.
|same thing
|Also, he rarely does a globe travelling thing. Most versions, he studies under one mentor, becomes the best at the one thing, and goes back.
|yeah far distance. not distances
|batmans growth is an illusion that justifies his bloodlust
|By then, he views his wealth as a tool to facilitate vigilantism, and relies on confidants to supply him with whatever he wasn't trained in.
|all of his 'origin' is about justifying his violence as a tool to fight violence.
|and he is able to use violence because of his wealth
|his training, in story is attempted to be separated from his wealth.
|Eh, only Millar's Batman was characterized by 'bloodlust'.
|but it doesn't work that way. isn't magically no longer wealthy because his training under some weird master
|which is what my problem is
|Yea, but that was a fresh take on the character once-upon-a-time.
|fresh =/= better
|It was certainly better than the post-66' series Batman from the 70s. XD
|meh debateable
|just as one note. at least it had some value in it in the form of humour
|and julie newmar
|No, that was the 66' series era Batman. The Batman that existed between the end of that show and DKR was a clusterfuck of terrible attempts to boost the comic's sales back up to what it was when the show was out.
|well that sounds actually worse than millars but. that doesn't push millar into being a good book for anything but art
|i mean
|id rather have batman aquasuit and a batmobile that splits apart instead of christian bale growling retarded one liners to himself.
|Millar actually took a very realistic take on the character (besides the obscene levels of punishment everyone can take in fights). It was the post-Millar's imitators who made things ridiculous.
|well i disagree
|i mean
|it is more 'realistic' to the personality choices. frank has fairly consistent characterization
|still absolutely ridiculous
|and obv the imitators are worse
|they are imitating shit.
|that might actually make them better than millar
|i mean thats a joke. millar tries to have some sort of introspection on the absurdity of batman
|but that doesn't make batman no longer absurd
|He didn't try to make him not absurd.
|i know.
|thats the problem
|instead of fixing the absurdity
|he just monologues about being absurd
|He tried to justify the absurdity by portraying Bruce Wayne as seriously mentally ill.
|Thats an utter copout
|That's an absurd statement.
|Bat man has always been mentally ill saying it outlook doesn't somehow give it more value
|Out loud*
|It's no more a cop-out than any other deconstruction of absurd genre conventions.
|No, he absolutely has not.
|Lol. Well not I if you leave an understanding of mental illness from sitcoms and movies
|Leave =have
|Only Millar's and Morrison's depictions of Batman include any sort of actual mental illness.
|I would describe the fundamental aspects of batman as being inarguable markers of mental illness
|I would also stipulate that mental illness is a continuum on which all of humanity falls. And what is socially considered an illness is that which interferes with normal productive behaviour
|See watchmen
|I mean only Millar and Morrison's Batman are definitively diagnosable.
|Including a reference to mental illness is not the litmus test for being mentally ill
|All batman are diagnosable
|Not really.
|Which is especially true if you use time an appropriate dsms
|Yes really. Millar batman is only special in the sense that people who use crazy to describe mental illness are able to diagnose him
|Are able to diagnose him
|yeah. i have a hard time believing anyone with a DSM in hand would have difficulty diagnosing any iteration of batman
|Millar's Batman has whatever the fuck they used to call 'sociopathy'. His version of the character is very consistently portrayed as such.
|sociopath is not a psychological diagnosis
|it doesn't exist in psychology. it is a legal diagnosis
|at any rate. thats worse
|because that is evidence that millar really doesn't understand mental illness.
|which makes him an even worse candidate for the explicit portrayal of a mentally ill batman
|Yea, but there 'a a specific personality disorder that is colloquially referred to as sociopathy in television and movies.
|That's the one that Miller's depiction has.
|reread that sentence
|following a legal guidebook to characterise your main character as a specific type of legal classification
|What the fuck are you even saying?
|is not only offensive to the human being at its basis(being that mental illness is a human continuum that no human isn't on). but also lazy
|the word sociopath in movies doesnt refer to a separate but equally formal ideal of human personality
|it is used because of media using it in its an official form without explanation
|explicitly portraying 'mental illness' is the laziest thing i can imagine
|in terms of writing a character
|not to mention
|that legal sociopathic people don't follow some schematic
|it works comparing tendencies
|when a tendency becomes counter-productive to survival of yourself or others.
|sticking to some made up idea of a model of personality
|is lazy, stupid, dishonest and ineffective
|What the fuck does the legal definition of sociopath have to do with anything? Like I said multiple times, it's supposed to be whatever that personality disorder everyone refers to as sociopathy.
|but my point is there is no such thing
|there is no other sociopath
|its an epithet used on characters who do not have ANY empathy.
|which is not even how legal sociopathy works(which is where the word comes from, and what movies are referring to)
|Yes, there absolutely is. There is a real personality disorder that people refer to erroneously as sociopathy *all the time*.
|that does not mean that that personality is real. in fact if you follow the etymology of the word and look at the applications that fit your definition you will find there is no consistency besides a total lack of empathy. which again, is not a real thing
|if anything the 'real' disorder you refer to is what people call others who appear to not respect their needs and wants and self
|which again.
|is not an actual thing
|it is an assessment of another that is based absolutely on your own interactions with the person
|or your observations of their interactions
|which i shouldn't have to say, is not the same thing as a person's thoughts or psychology.
|sociopath doesn't mean that person isn't empathic (which is the media implication of the term)
|it means, that person isn't empathic to me.
|or, i don't feel empathy from that person
|which objectively could be seen as a personal disorder, and not something wrong with the assessed
|Dude, can you voice chat?
|anyway my point is you can't say miller's batman is mentally ill, and say this is so because he is a sociopath
|I didn't.
|you say he is mentally ill
|that his mental illness is 'media' sociopathy
|I said he had whatever the fuck personality disorder is that people always refer to as sociopathy.
|I can't for the life of me remember what it's actual name is.
|right and i'm trying to explain to you, that there isn't a personality disorder there
|you can't base a diagnosis on how you feel you are being treated
|diagnosis of mental illness is a joke/mess in real life medicine
|there is barely consistency when its important.
|So you are saying that whatever that personality disorder is doesn't actually exist?
|no im saying, that sociopathy in media doesn't refer to a personality disorder
|it refers to a similar characterization.
|that is neither indicative or not of any mental illness
|its a shortcut to make you feel a certain way about a character without actually justifying that feeling.
|any consistency among those characterized as sociopaths is coincidence
|because, in a movie, when they call a character a sociopath
|they aren't referring to a real person.
|so they cannot be referring to a real personality disorder
|now, you'll find in non0fiction the term is used
|an invented character's personality quirks cannot be said to represent a real personality
|only an approximation of interactions with a personality
|Dude, actual sociopathy is not what I'm talking about.
|yes i know
|but you can't just ignore it
|Ignore what?
|since the media use of the term COMES from the legal term
|that sociopathy is a word with a meaning outside of fiction
|i get that you are not referring to legal sociopathy
|but fiction sociopathy does not refer to anything
|I'm not. That's specifically why I mentioned that it wasn't sociopathy, but rather whatever that personality disorder that is always labeled sociopathy.
|it is used inconsistently and often incompatibly
|and i'm saying
|that the personality disorder labelled as sociopathy is not a personality disorder.
|because.. its not a personality disorder. the words comes from a specific legal meaning. used in media enough until the technical term is irrelevant to its use.
|it becomes a term used to describe a person without any knowledge of their psyche or motivations
|the term, in media, is used on people. not who have a different personality disorder, but whose personality clashes in an unfavourable way with otherwise important characters. or in order to establish an important character as an antihero
|when used in media
|it doesn't refer to a group of people with a specific personality
|so saying hes the mentally ill batman because he has not-sociopathy is a juvenile assessment
|I don't understand what the fuck you're saying. What does the term sociopath have to do with anything beside the fact that it is often mistakenly applied to the thing I'm thinking of?
|copy and replace the word sociopath with THING and the argument still makes sense from my perspective
|so i am confused
|whether you call the traits called sociopathic, sociopathic or not is irrelevant
|what im saying is that mysterious disorder that is called sociopathy in movies, is not a disorder
|there is no commonality
|And he's not 'the mentally ill Batman'. He's the Batman portrayed as having that specific personality disorder.
|the specific personality disorder that people in movies call sociopathy but isn't sociopathy?
|that doesnt make sense
|because the personality disorder that people in movies call sociopathy isn't a personality disorder
|people in movies are called sociopaths-while-being-something-that-isn't-a-sociopath so frequently and with such little consistency that is not even possible to draw a model based on empirical study of these characters
|so to say he has that disorder
|is nonsensical
|because movie sociopaths are alternately bipolar, depressed, suicidal, homicidal, schizophrenic
|which ADT?
|The disorder I'm thinking of is APD
|well now we are back at the beginning
|apd is not what is characterized in batman. it is simply the closest approximation for his group of traits, that is listed in the DSM
|Yea, fair enough.
|a good rule of thumb is if a fictional character says its a 'disorder' or 'dysfunction' or 'disease' ignore it.
|I think that's a silly distinction to make, but whatever.
|well, i think its importance is paramount considering the state of mental medicine in the world
|Nobody in universe as far as I know actually says it, but Miller's Batman is very clearly portrayed as such.
|yeah. i maintain that is absurdly lazy writing.
|following the DSM in order to portray a character with a 'mental illness' should mean you aren't allowed to publish things anymore
|i mean thats like all the words in call of duty being arabic
|when they speak urdu in afghanistan
|though maybe thats a little too harsh.
|For portraying a protagonist afflicted with mental disorders ?
|i object to that question
|mental disorder is a continuum on which all of humanity falls.
|if you want to write mental disorder. and you have to look at the dsm to do it. simply, don't
|or rather
|and you have to follow the dsm
|dsm is actually a great study guide for writing characters because it will help you understand just how much possibility there is human psychology.
|How else would you portray a disorder you don't have yourself?
|but its also bad because it makes you think that a given collection of traits equates to a problem greater than the sum of its parts, when mental disorder is the opposite of that
|No. That's stupid.
|if you can't imagine how one of your tendencies can be exaggerated into becoming counterproductive and bad for your survival.
|hell quit writing at that point
|or at least, don't expect me to read or respect your work
|That's silly. Just because you don't have personal experience with something doesn't mean you shouldn't write about it.
|but that is the flaw
|That's exactly why writers do research.
|thinking you don't have experience with mental illness
|mental illness is a continuum on which all of humanity falls
|what some people call disorder
|is a universal trait in different measure
|What does that have to do with anything.
|it has everything to do with writing 'mentally ill' characters
|if you don't understand that.
|that you don't understand mental illness enough to be writing about it
|or rather
|you don't understand mental illness enough to use it as characterization
|Yea, everyone has some sort of experience with mental illness, but that doesn't mean you have experience with the specific set of symptoms you wish to portray.
|if you already know the symptoms you want to portray then looking at the dsm isn't going to help you at all
|It absolutely does.
|the dsm is about matching symptoms to a diagnosis
|if you already know the symptoms what do you need to know what the dsm calls that collection of symptoms?
|why do you need to know..
|there aren't a lot of good reasons to use the dsm as a reference for character writing if you already know the symptoms you want to portray
|You may not know *every* symptom, perhaps just the more common or spectacular ones. You may also want to know the symptoms of common comorbid disorders.
|you can learn, other common symptoms that show up. and you can learn what doctors call a given collection of symptoms. thats it
|if you know the symptoms.
|the dsm does not have information of value
|if you don't know the symptoms. you are looking at the dsm to characterize a character with a specific disorder which almost any psychologist will tell you is a fools errand
|Yea, and?
|and you end up with a gross caricature like miller's batman
|I don't see what that has to do with anything.
|which. albeit, is unfortunately on the better end of the spectrum of mental illness writing
|but thats a comment on the state of comic writing. not the skill of millar
|defining a character through textbook traits of a personality disorder, won't make an accurate portrayal of a person with a personality disorder. by virtue of the DSM being the resource you is important, you betray your lack of understanding about its contents
|-is important
|the resource you use*
|Millar's Batman was a consistent and nuanced character. He was hardly a 'gross caricature' until All-Star Batman and Robin.
|yeah i know
|thats why miller's batman, is unfortunately, on the better end of the spectrum
|its better than pretty much any other tripe of similar nature from the big two comics companies./
|despite still being tripe from the big two comics companies
|That's an unfair assessment. The big two may be very firmly low-brow, but 'tripe' is beyond harsh.
|pulpy lowbrow shit is what they SHOULD be doing
|putting another violence-fetishizing white male asshole in charge of a want-it-to-be-highbrow arc is the problem
|That's really not a huge issue in modern comics, dude. That accurately describes the stuff we grew up with, but excessive violence doesn't really fly any more.
|replace violence with nerd.
|statement still true
|That's just... No dude. The industry has always catered to nerds.
|it is a major problem that this is still the case
|because it doesn't cater to nerds
|it caters to male outcasts.
|which is not synonymous with nerd anymore
|Year, there's definitely a problem with hypermasculinity.
|and even if it were, would still be a stupid thing to be doing
|But there have also been huge strides to combat this thanks to people like Gail Simmone and the late Dwayne McDuffie.
|there have been people since the 30s who have been trying to take these strides. comics industry doesn't kudos for continuing to treat them the same way while now acknowledging they exist.
|for every gail simmone there are 20 rob liefeld's who worked for over a decade.\
|then again, seeing leifeld talk has warmed me on him lol hes pretty self-deprecating and aware that he can't draw
|for gail simmone there are 1000 frank miller's making personal jackoff copies of their own material
|I'm not going to say that they had it easy or anything, but you're a fool if you don't realize that things are so much better now than they were in the 30s.
|of course they are
|that doesn't mean they are good now though
|for a hyperbolic analogy. WWII wouldn't have ended if hitler had started imprisoning jews only, instead of imprisoning and killing them
|of course its better.
|you can see a womans name on a comic
|of course its still god awful though
|because that woman was just rich and white enough to be noticed.
|No, but things have come a long way. The fact is that now the grognards are getting called out on their shit tells me that we are nearing a tipping point. Especially now that those grognards are trying to fight back. They feel threatened now, whereas they never did before.
|the grognards have always been called out on their shit
|and they've always fought back against
|because feeling threatened is the only feeling they can embrace.
|the idea that the backlash is new is the best evidence for how little progress there has been.
|its great that some minor things have gotten marginally better.
|but talking about what's been done is a waste of time, when there is so much work still to do
|The difference is that the people calling out the idiots have exposure for their voice now. I don't doubt that people have always voiced concern over Wonder Woman covers that show gratuitous tits and ass or whatever. But now those voices are seen and heard by people other than the editor who decides which can Mail gets printed.
|yeah but those voices are heard to the chagrin of comic execs and grognards
|they are only audible because of the internet.
|where those in charge are absolved of responsibility by simply allowing those people to talk.
|which is itself a goddamn farce
|okay i think i'm reaching a critical mass of cynicism
|i gotta go smoke a joint
|theres gonna be an event horizon in my mind where all the positivity goes and is never seen again lol
|you can try to call me but if i cant play my game while i smoke i'm hanging up lol
|Comic execs are beginning to come around, though. There is a significant increase in depictions of women and people of colour in mainstream comics. And yea, a lot of it is exploitation genre stuff, but even that is coming around now.

Radio Shack, Hyundai tops among Pittsburgh ad execs (Video)

(Page 2 of 3)
The daughter just doesn't really care what her dad has to say. I could see my daughter and me having the same conversation in that VW. Equal parts absurdity. And humanity. That gets my vote this year."
Bryan Hadlock, executive vice president, chief creative officer, Marc USA:
"Humbly, I submit my two favorites. One, the Hyundai spot called 'Dad's sixth sense.' Great concept, great execution, great demonstration of a great feature of a great product. Two, the spot that ran immediately after the game for Esurance with John Krasinski. Great idea, simple, cheap creative, strategic, funny, smart and most likely effective."
Craig Otto, partner/creative director, Dymun+Co:
"My favorite of everything is a bit of a toss up between two players — Budweiser and Hyundai Genesis. I loved the Budweiser 'Best Buds' commercial. It represented the brand artfully. However, my pick this year has to go to Hyundai Genesis. Their 'Dad's sixth sense' commercial is pure genius. Seeing those fathers rescue their boys from imminent danger tapped into my paternal instincts. I not only saw myself in the commercial, I saw my dad in it too. The spot also managed to teach me something about the product. I had no idea that any car in the Hyundai's modest price range offered an emergency braking system. The spot managed to engage, delight and inform. That's quite a feat to pull off in 60 seconds."
Larkin Werner, partner/creative director, Wall-to-Wall Studios:
"I thought the self-deprecating humor of (Radio Shack's) ad was pretty bold. Not too many companies would have the guts to do this, acknowledge the fact that everyone thinks they're an antiquated brand. Basically saying, 'Hey everyone, we know we've been stuck in the past for the last 25 years.' The payoff was equally entertaining —a rush of '80s icons tearing up the store. Kudos to all the celebs willing to poke a little fun at themselves, too — Mary Lou, Ponch, Cliff, Kid, the Hulkster, Sgt. Slaughter, Alf. Now, about your name..."

Is 1. d4 Nf3 a good idea for black? It looks like it takes special care since this is a possible danger:
An example of terrible play, yes, but possible for a lower rated player. Perhaps 2... d5 was in order, leading into some sort of Scandinavian. 3... Nb4 or Ne7 still save the knight. After 3... Nb4 white can play a3 to chase the knight to inactivity on a6. 3... Ne7 seems better. It looks like it blocks the king side, but a fianchetto and Nf6 are an idea. I'm not sure that there is a way for white to smack black around then. It seems like a mirrored alkehine.
There are so many options open, but how does this look:
Actually, isn't this just the KID? So maybe Be2 instead so the knight can make it to d3?
I think that most people instead of e4 would play c4, where your best hope is transpose into the Tchigorin

On "Mini-Super Tuesday," 3 Senate Primaries Could Mark Bellwether for Midterm Elections
It's Mini-Super Tuesday, the biggest primary day of the 2010 election cycle. All eyes are on three key Senate primaries: Democratic incumbent Arlen Specter vs. Congress member Joe Sestak in Pennsylvania; two-term Democratic incumbent Blanche Lincoln vs. Lieutenant Governor Bill Halter in Arkansas; and on the Republican side, Secretary of State Trey Grayson vs. political newcomer Rand Paul in Kentucky. We speak to leading pollster Nate Silver of the polling analyst site FiveThirtyEight.com. [includes rush transcript]
Debating the Crisis in Thailand: Is Red Shirt Movement a Genuine Grassroots Struggle, or Front for Ousted Ex-PM, Billionaire Tycoon?
In Thailand, the government has rejected an offer by anti-government protesters to enter talks after a bloody week in Bangkok that has left at least thirty-eight protesters dead. Some fear the standoff could lead to an undeclared civil war. The protesters are mostly rural and urban poor who are part of a group called the UDD, the United Front for Democracy Against Dictatorship, more commonly known as the Red Shirts. We host a debate between Giles Ji Ungpakorn, a Thai dissident living in exile in Britain who supports the Red Shirt movement; and Philip Cunningham, a freelance journalist who has covered Asia for over twenty years.

Ben Carson: White Liberals Are Pretty Darned Racist
Color me shocked! White liberals being racist?
(Mediaite) On his radio show last night, Mark Levin had on newfound conservative "hero" Dr. Ben Carson to discuss all the lashings he's received from the "left-wing media" over his views on gay marriage and religion. While discussing his being a black conservative, Carson told Levin that, in his experience, white liberals are the "most racist people there are."
"They need to shut me up, they need to delegitimize me," Carson told the radio host while explaining why he believes the media has scorned him for lumping homosexuality in with unsavory sexual acts like bestiality and pedophilia.
Levin added that the doctor has been attacked by "white liberals" because he is a black conservative, to which Carson replied: "They are the most racist people there are. Because they put you in a little category, a little box. You have to think this way. How could you dare come off the plantation?"
He's entirely correct. Though, it's not just white liberals, but all liberals, but mostly the white's, who tend to be in positions of power in the Democrat party and the legacy media. They'll attack any minority and/or female conservative in a heartbeat and excuse any attack on said conservative in heartbeat. Notice that no one in the media or on the left attacked Justice Sotomayor for essentially saying the same thing as Ben Carson on gay marriage and in the same way. But, Carson is black and espouses a right side view, so they have attacked him since the national prayer breakfast.

I want to start a business with my four younger siblings. They are all minors, I'm the only one over the age of 18, but I'm having major debt problems at the moment. I'd rather get paid a salary than own equity.in the business that a creditor could potentially take.
So I want to know if there's a way I can somehow give my four minor siblings 25% equity each while I run a trust or some other legal entity which gives me the power to control their portion of the business until they reach the age of 18? Any advice would be greatly appreciated, thank you.
Your plan will not work. Whether you recieve a salary or own the business creditors can garnish wages and seize assets. Involving your siblings is not a good idea for various reasons. You really need to sit down with a business attorney in a face to face meeting to explore your options and your creditor problems. That is the best advice that can be given to you. A general forum like AVVO cannot give you what you really need.
you are borrowing money from them or they have doubt as to whether you are a legitimate buyer, they want to see your creditworthiness and income generating potential. Tax returns give them clues about these things.
Hope this helps.
Please remember to designate a best answer to your question.
Mr. Fromm is licensed to practice law throughout the state of PA with offices in Philadelphia and Montgomery Counties. He is authorized to handle IRS matters throughout the United States. His phone number is 215-735-2336 or his email address is email@example.com , his website for more tax, estate and business articles is www.sjfpc.com.
Attorney Fromm provides the best and most important advice we could give you. Your plan is bad for a variety of reasons and really wont work. There is a possibility of doing it but I doubt it will accomplish what you want and have significant legal costs.
A child cannot sign incorporation or organizing documents of an organization. But they can receive a gift of a portion of a company. Unfortunately it is not a gift unless you give them the ability to control said item which is exactly what you do not want.
Even if you gave them control subject to their guardian having the right to sell the property you face a second issue. You want to have them pay you a salary. As the guardian of a child who owns a company you may not be the best choice as an employee (or manager). If the guardian makes an incorrect choice they would be breaching their fiduciary duty and would potentially be personally liable.
Also as Attorney Fromm alluded too how will your new company get credit? Usually new companies are required to be backed by personal guarantees. Your siblings are too young to provide such guarantees.
Also as guardian of the child now that you gave them an asset (the company) they have a duty to diversity their funds. Is your company a good investment for them? Does it expose them to liability as they get older?
The last but arguable most important line is you need a carefully drafted operating agreement to protect all parties and ensure that the your objective is accomplished.
If you were to finely toe this line, you are the most qualified manager, the company is a good investment, you give them a properly drafted gift, the operating agreement is carefully structured it would cost you easily 10k in legal fees (probably more). Now if you had 10k to spend on attorneys I doubt you would be looking to setup this type of structure.
Simply put this type of strategy is not economical or appropriate for your situation.
I will say first off that you must consult with competent local counsel with experience in business law and trusts and estates law (at the least) before you attempt anything of this sort. As the other answers suggest, you would be a fool to simply rely on answers you get for free here from strangers you don't know and whom you haven't hired to advise you.
That being said, although it would be difficult, complicated, and potentially expensive to set up something along the lines that you're considering, it could possibly be done. However, the likelihood of success will be crucially dependent on all of the facts and circumstances including such details like the particular business you want to set up, your available capital, any other potential investors, anyone who could be trusted to act as an independent, but friendly, trustee for your siblings' interests, and so on.
The bottom line is this, though: you could have full control over the day-to-day business operations without being an equity owner and could have protection against being fired or dismissed from your position with the company, the business could be structured to make it unlikely that your siblings would divest themselves of the business and sell it to a stranger whose interests were antithetical to you, but you would have to give up ultimate control over the entity conducting the business itself and that control would have to be exercised by someone independent from you with the power to act if necessary in ways contrary to your own interests. The key point here - and there is no guarantee that it would work with your particular circumstances - is that you cannot control what the equity owners can do, you can only have control over the operation of the business itself, and even then you must operate it for the benefit of the equity owners, not for your own personal benefit.
Any deviation from the plethora of limitations you would have to abide by could easily result in one of your creditors claiming that in substance the business is really owned by you and seeking a court order permitting that creditor to seize the business and sell or liquidate it to satisfy your debts. In closing I want to reiterate that what you intend to do is fraught with peril and upon a fuller analysis of the the facts it may turn out to be impossible to accomplish your intentions.
I would be more than happy to discuss your circumstances and plans in more detail; if you're interested you can reach me by email at firstname.lastname@example.com.

We had an early supper and enjoyed it. Lots of seafood choices, all fresh and hot. Bang-bang shrimp were great! Our waiter was great. He took good care of us with a nice smile. Would definitely go back.
The food was delicious! Waitresses were very attentive. If you go to dinner around 4:30 you can avoid long lines. Very clean restaurant.
Me and my husband ate here on our vacation last week...and were completely disappointed.We wanted to go to Crabby Mikes but the wait and line were so long so we went here which is right down the street.Big Mistake!...Very overpriced for what it is.Everything on the buffet is not very appealing and didntdidn't taste good at all.Food was either cold...
We visited Bennett's Calabash Seafood. It was your average buffet. Our waitress was nice. The price was $27.99 for me that wasn't bad for crab legs, shrimp and fish. However, I am not much of a buffet eater.
Seriously. It's a buffet. You get what you get. Some of it is good; some of it isn't. The crab legs were plentiful and always hot. The prime rib wasn't the best, but it wasn't the worst either. Good pecan pie though.The best part about our experience was our server. She was phenomenal. We had a party of 13 and...
The food was good. There is nothing great about it. It's an average seafood buffet. I don't eat that much but my husband always wants to eat at one every time we go to the beach. You do get crab legs with it for $27.99 so for some people it might be a deal.
The food and selection was awesome. Our server was very sweet and made sure me had everything we needed. Pecan pie was delish!!!!
More food than you could ever want including unlimited crab legs. Inside could use an update and more space but food was good, pricey but comparable to most Calabash buffets in the area.
The selection and variety was outstanding. Great service too. Loved the seaside decor inside as well.
If you do not eat crab legs it is over priced! Shrimp was over cooked! Salad bar good! Baked potatoes need to be hotter. Desserts awful!

#093 How Churches Can Support Public Schools
in Education
The Watch D.O.G.S. (Dads of Great Students) Program is the largest school based father engagement program in the nation with over 4000 schools participating.
Live from Brunswick County, North Carolina, we will be talking to Pat Litzinger, Congregations For Children District Coordinator, Harbor District, NC Conference of The United Methodist Church. Many churches are reaching out to the public schools in their community outreach. Watch D.O.G.S. provides an opportunity to organizations within the school community including churches to serve local children without "re-inventing the wheel". Of course local school policy and practice dictates how this is managed, but the Watch D.O.G.S. program is a great foundation to build upon. We will also be joined by New Hanover County, NC Commissioner Jonathan Barfield and Top Dog Coordinator, Scott Diggs.
Each week, WatchDOGS Radio host Keith Schumacher and co-host Chris Danenhauer discuss how this program is impacting families and schools across our nation and in four foreign countries.

This broadcast is a call to repentance and prayer for all men, (and boys) who desire to participate in the will of God in these last days. This daily non-denominational, Christian intercessory prayer broadcast is being held for the purpose of restoring family and church order, spiritual growth and unity in the body of Christ.
In addition, our goal is to allow the Kingdom of God to manifest in our lives, as well as experience healing, revival in the end-time church, and obtain the faith to overcome; the daily cares of this world, the deceitfulness of riches, and the lust of things and pleasures of this life.

This is the first quilt I have ever made (or ever intend to make). My mother made me a quilt when I was 2, and I've cherished that thing until it fell apart (it lasted about 16 years), and I still have it. My son is 2 and is such a little blankie boy that I had to make this quilt as a symbol of my love for him. I love Monet, so I based the color palette off of one of his paintings using Palette Builder. There were just enough problems with making this that I will not do so again for a long time. I do much prefer garment sewing. I constructed the blocks on my Brother CS 6000-i, but the rest of the quilt (border, backing quilting, and decorative stitching) was done on the Viking Sapphire 875 that I got to borrow from work. I still think I'm going to go back and use yarn like my mom had to merge the layers together, but all-in-all, I'm happy with the result. I hope my son cherishes it forever.

Mammoth discovered in Mexicotags: archaeology, skeletons, Mexico, Mexico City
Picture a 30-year-old male, wandering the wilderness alone, far from his friends, seeking love. Let's call him Manny.
Picture him trudging from lake to lake in the Mexican mountains, having climbed nearly half a mile from his pals into the hills to the picturesque watering holes, in search of a mate.
Now flash forward some 12,000 years to modern day Mexico City, where residents of the suburb of Milpa Alto recently stumbled across the most complete mammoth skeleton ever found in the country, the National Institute of Anthropology and History announced Monday....

AUSTIN (AP) — Chevron Corp. has announced expansion plans calling for constructing a 1.7 million-square-foot office tower and creating 1,752 jobs.
Gov. Rick Perry announced Wednesday that Chevron is receiving $12 million from the Texas Enterprise Fund, a pot of money meant to attract outside businesses to the state.
Perry said the multimillion-dollar investment Chevron is making in Houston will open the door to significant opportunities for Texans and their families.
The fund was created in 2003 by the Legislature and has been used to convince various firms to expand in Texas.
Perry said the fund has now invested more than $498 million and helped close the deal on projects generating more than 69,000 new jobs and about $20.8 billion in capital investment statewide.

hello, tomorow i am participating in my first fide-rated tournament. its a blitz tournament. how should i prepare for this event?
thanks in advance.
If the tournament is tomorrow, I think you're past the preparation phase. Just get a good night's sleep and make sure to bring everything you need (including snacks). Make sure you know how to get there, and plan on arriving early.
Oh yeah, and good luck!
Yes, sleep tight and well. The last OTB tourney that I had, I sleept pretty late. The effect was I felt so dizzy and uncomfortable. You don't want that, I guarantee you.
I also get caffeine shot from a cup of coffee or a bottle of energy drink. It worked just fine for me, you might want to try that out.
thanks for the responses
you said i was past the preperation phase,, what could i have done earlier then?
Well, if the tournament was a few months away, I'd suggest deciding which openings you'll use as White/Black, and make sure you're very familiar with the ideas and tactics of the main lines. I'd also suggest playing a bunch of games at the same time control as the tournament games so you're used to that time control.
I guess he means that if you're gonna prepare for a tournament, you should not do that the night before.
i see, thanks all
