I was going to say the same thing. It is one of the most developed and well-run countries in Africa. Made the most of their arrangement with DeBeers over the years to mine diamonds there and has well run animal conservation programs that include hunting big game.

At first, I was onboard with it being Zelda. But now I think that’s too obvious. Leaning towards Okufu now. Also, as others have noted, it would be nice to deal with Rupert somehow now that Anthony Head has died.
I think it’s obvious it’s Zelda. The camera panned to her right after Rebecca said Rupert. And she’s the obvious one anyway. On another topic, I generally like Tracy Ullman, but like others have noted, I don’t like Zelda as a character and that is one on many reasons I find season 4 a big disappointment n
Pans, almost exclusively cast iron or carbon steel, unless it is some acidic food. Pots, a mix, depending on the circumstances. Probably mostly steel, but also enameled cast iron and cast iron.

Sherman Act is not a slam dunk. While the NCAA is clearly a monopoly and has been found so by courts in the past, the SEC is just one conference among several. May be more difficult to prove the SEC has monopoly power, especially with a recent history of teams moving conferences.

Maybe--assuming the TV rights holders also don't ask for a reduction in their payments or sue for breach of contract.

Not necessary to avoid dish soap with cast iron these days. Dish soap today is much more mild than in the past. It will not remove or harm the seasoning unless you really scrub. I give my cast iron a quick rinse, wipe with a soapy rag and then rinse and dry, followed by a minute or two on the burner to ensure it is fully dry before storing. No need to put any additional oil coating before storing on a well-seasoned pan. Just wash (with dish soap) and dry. Every couple of years I re-season. That's it.

Maybe I'm the minority but I'm not really liking it so far. SPOILERS-MAYBE
Sure, some funny moments here and there, but the story lines and the humor seem so forced. Rebecca's now boyfriend is not an addition. I thought his acting and storyline were good in season 3. So far, he is a doormat and they're doing nothing to develop his character or really explore their relationship. The shareholder meeting was cliched and not that funny. Roy has shown no growth since Season 3. Back to being his gruff self with no depth and following Keeley around like a hurt dog. I'll stick it out I guess but I have no enthusiasm for where these stories might be going. The show needs a good foil like Rupert and so far, I don't see one.

Mick Jagger, Freddie Mercury, Elvis. Not rock, but I would still throw in James Brown.
He's gone from we'll only accept unconditional surrender to complete capitulation that the Iranians refuse to accept because they believe they can get more. Worst negotiator ever!!!
I try to avoid CCP surveillance tools. Nobody should be on TikTok!
Those fields will be filled with marijuana plants in no time!! I read an article years ago that vineyards in California were worried that legal weed wound displace them.
Lawrence of Arabia has an intermission. I've seen the movie many times on my home theater but never in a traditional theater. Was awesome! And the intermission was much appreciated after a large drink!

I heard they wanted him back but Phil Dunster had other commitments he couldn't get out of.
United Airlines is a private company, and at least for now, they can do what they want whether its a smart business decision or not. The question is whether they will still be able to act as a private company when our baby skinned narcissist president threatens to sic the DOT on them. Trump's need to stamp his name on everything is creepy and redolent of a third world banana republic.
The top 1% earn around 23% if income in the country and pay 44% of federal taxes. That's 1% of the population paying almost half of all federal taxes. The top 10% pay over 70% of total Federal taxes. The bottom 50% of the country (half the population) pay 3% of Federal taxes. Some supposed failure to tax the rich is clearly not the problem.

Trump is at heart an appeaser. Both with Putin and with Iran. He should have long ago have told Iran there is no linkage between Israel/Hezbollah and our conflict with Iran. He should have said we consider Hezbollah a terrorist organization and it would be wise for Iran to cut ties and settle the conflict with us. Instead he allows Iran to link the two conflicts and then encourages Hezbollah to lob missles into Israel knowing that Israel would have to respond and Trump would take Iran’s side. They’re playing him like a fiddle!

I'm open to you showing evidence of this. Chris Wright (Trump's energy secretary) said to Congress yesterday that he was unaware of it being true.

He snuck out 100 million barrels of oil under their noses.
I call BS on this. The only evidence is a statement from Trump. Has anyone else in the administration, in the military or from any Gulf nation confirmed this? I'm going to need more than Trump's ramblings at this point.
Poche’s is not good. And your cousin Johnny just got like his fourth DWI arrest. Surely he’s going to jail. I second Marfa’s and Napa Flats for more casual. Republic or Christopher’s for more formal. Cousin Johnny does have a decent Italian restaurant-1860 Italia. Food is good but don’t go there to have a conversation. It’s very loud.
