Property's worst enemy is theft: theft
makes property insecure. And unless property is secure, it can't be
accumulated and it is wasted. The increasing incidence of heists on
grain, Argentina's most valuable export, indicates that property rights
are becoming more insecure and that the economy only has one way to go:
down the tubes.

Summon the image of high tea and you'll
probably think of an afternoon gathering at a British country cottage or
perhaps rich socialites hosting a ladies brunch in New York.

One of the world's legendary investors
is upping his bet on Argentina's shale oil and gas industry in a show of
confidence for shale production in South America's largest
unconventional prize -- and a big boost for both supermajors and smaller
players making big waves in the heart of new discovery areas.
Despite years of economic turmoil and
political intrigue, the country is making it's case to be known as a hub
for technology, software development, and entrepreneurship. Somehow,
the technology industry has defied gravity to become a ray of economic
sunshine in a country that has grown accustomed to bad news.

South American political elites seem to
have jettisoned much of the high minded left idealism of past years in
favor of crass economic interests. In a somewhat outlandish turn of
events, Brazil has embraced Vladimir Putin, a figure who has desperately
sought to end his country's political and diplomatic isolation.

Lush green coffee plantations,
snow-capped volcanoes, game-rich safari plains and the rainforest
wilderness are just some of the extraordinary destinations just waiting
to be traversed on horseback.

Numerous thrillers and suspense writings
titillate us by hopping from country to country -- a la James Bond. But
let's take a look at some successful examples of exotic suspense
written by people who live where they write -- natives or expats.

The roots of Argentina's delusion of grandeur and
European-ness may be in the beliefs of Argentina's 19th century elites
who were, indeed, fantastically wealthy, although nobody else was.
The IMF's concern is hardly surprising
because if the New York court decision becomes generally accepted legal
practice, many countries face financial disaster now or in the future.

Most pools are cool, technically
speaking, but some are a whole heck of a lot cooler than others and
luxury hotels are home to some of the coolest.

In light of the history, Argentina seems like the last country one would expect to embrace Russia and Vladimir Putin.
Author, 'Revolution! South America and the Rise of the New Left'
From its security policy to suspicious, crony
nationalizations, and down to its corrupt officials still in office, the
Argentine president refuses to learn when she has lost. Without
admitting defeat, ideology is left naked to face undeniable reality.
Today this ideology is only useful to protect the corrupt and hide
scandals. Power is never eternal, and for Kirchner it is finally running
out.

Today, she was a poet, for she lived
many lives, today. She moved around the world and she remained still to
watch the world move. She lived between the lines of the novel she
carried.

Lebron's return to Ohio was far more
important then literally the one thing the REST OF THE WORLD cares most
about: soccer (futbol). Gotta love 'murica;)
These days, a soccer World Cup is a
multi-billion dollar project, with a number of financial "winners," such
as FIFA, and many losers, given the development priorities that are
sacrificed to build gleaming stadia. Does this also mean that one can
explain a nation's success at the cup largely by money?
