gates defends it. he predicts that one day north america will be independent in this letter, which in 7074 -- were not near were most of americans are in support of independence but he is predicting it in 1774. and in this letter he says however politically and artfully princes may endeavor to distinguish man from man, true merit with the discerning few will ever be preferred to mere nobility. he never really gets past this idea of the fundamental corruption in british society that elevates men of birth as opposed to men of merit. so war breaks out in april of 1775. lexington and concorde. he is not surprised. he's been predicting this since the coercive acts reached america in the spring of 1774. when he hears about lexington and concord come he visits george washington at mount vernon, who he knew from his time in the french and indian war in washington is trying to put together an army. he needs experienced officer so we advocates for gates and once gates to get a position of leadership within the n

i think gates of 1980s is a very different than the gates we know of today. most ceos are humans too. they don't just have our virtues they also have all of our faults. and that can include giving to temptations for easy from possibly unethical sources. another theme that jumped out at me a lot of our work at cei focuses formal institutions and institutions. think of those the rules of the game. the way the regulatory process is structured, the separation of powers, or the way our system is built. those are and a lot of our work focuses on those formal institutions as they exist, how we can improve them. your book focuses on institutions, but it's more about informal institutions. personal relationships. gentlemen's agreements. that sort of thing. could it be that a lot of we tankers are missing out on something very important? yeah, i think what you're at is really the intangibles. and one of the points i make in the power of the is this idea that if there are two companies or two industries who are conflicting with one another on an important issue, they ba

i think the voice of language is uh, was something that the one would not expect from bill gates. what we have to understand is, is billy digs the has of a tricky relationship with india. that tricky relationship. but goes along because all the to hacks that he lyrics want is as the phone done in a successful field of microsoft, we give the leverage into move fiction, look, society to create. and the other is to the villain melinda gates foundation, which has done a lot of growth around around for a long trophy on one side, and then medical research and those sort of things. and some of the experiments that bill and when the data foundations ran in india. so within the yard, around 20082009, we've the moving, it feels that it was better depths of 675 old women, which well i've got a lot of bad name for, for the phone basin and eventually that they were uh, uh, bang from running medical experiments, now off the call, we'd, as you rightly sort of billing, meaning that the good foundation way and add the add, the people think that there are lots of very few purities surrounding what

one of the meme projects he took an interest in is called elon gate. elon gate made me rich.aul posted this video about elon gate�*s fans in the mavericks club which gives his fans exclusive content. as word spread, excitement for elon gate grew. after his video to the maverick club, the price of elon gate went to an all—time high. it remained at this price for hours before large holders of the token began to sell, crashing the price. we cannot be sure of logan's intention before he sent the video to the maverick club. new meme coins were launching daily so few people thought to ask why logan paul was promoting these seemingly worthless coins to his fans but that changed with dink doink. logan endorsed the project to his over 6 million twitter followers injune 2021. the effect was immediate. it encouraged his fans to buy. how much did you invest in dink doink? i think in total a little over $3000. early investors in dink doink helped push the price of the token up by over 400% injust four days. does that celebrity factor, having people like logan paul attached to this, give y

over the next couple hours, most of the rain will still be north of the golden gate bridge. so mainly impacting the north bay. and then as it starts to slide towards the southeast, it really breaks up. and then south of the golden gate bridge will only get showers, light showers off and on throughout the evening. and then tomorrow we get a break during the day, but during the afternoon hours we'll start to see some light rain move through the bay area once again. and then monday night. late monday night is when our storm level two arrives. so rainfall estimates really vary wildly. in fact, you'll notice just a few hundredths of an inch in parts of the south bay san jose, maybe four hundredths of an inch. and right now they're only at about 80% of normal. but you'll notice above the golden gate bridge, that's where we can see over half an inch, maybe even up to an inch in some of the higher elevations of some of the north bay mountains. santa rosa, possibly 6/10 of an inch, and they are already at over 200% of normal san francisco, about 4/10 of an inch. so that's what you ca
