adams does something good:

Hang on, the charity that does this is very clear that they just buy bundles of debt and they have no say over whose specific debt they're buying. That's why they can't have any kind of application process.

But then... how is the city means testing it? Are they instructing the charity to buy a bundle of debt, then investigating the individuals whose debt it is, then only paying the charity for the people in that bundle who qualify under their means testing?

.... are they just lying about it being means tested for some inscrutable reason?

Because just saying the words means testing gets their dicks hard.

They can wipe out 100 bucks of debt for 1 dollar cause it's loving worthless. The debtors are never gonna pay it and good for them. By now they gotta be experts on telling these collectors to gently caress off.

Pretty sad that we have a whole industry that revolves around harassing people over uncollectable debt, and the best recourse anyone can find is to pay bribes to the bag holders.

He plummeted 15 feet onto the stage and died

What was designed to be a celebration of success turned tragic when CEO Sanjay Shah, 56, and the company president, Raju Datla, 52, fell 15 feet in front of a packed audience at a party for employees of Vistex, a software company based in Hoffman Estates, Ill.

One of the highlights was an aerial show. A specially designed stage made of wood was elevated 20 feet above the concrete stage using a crane. Shah and Datla were in an iron cage.

They were supposed to be lowered, but the iron chain supporting the cage broke on one side, causing them to fall 15 feet onto the main stage.

A CBS affiliate in India reported that the accident occurred Thursday night with 700 people in attendance to mark Vistex Asia's successful 25 years in business.

THE POSSESSION OF WEALTH IS IN AND OF ITSELF A SIGN OF POOR VIRTUE. AS SUCH:

2 NEVER HIRE ANY RICH PERSON.
BY RULE 1, IT IS APPROPRIATE TO PRESUME THAT ALL DEGREES AND CREDENTIALS HELD BY A WEALTHY PERSON ARE FRAUDULENT. THIS JUSTIFIES RULE 2--RULE 1 NEEDS NO JUSTIFIC



Before each flight passengers will have the opportunity to pay for a stretch goal. If they reach the stretch goal the airline will let the passengers walk around and inspect the plane for 20 minutes before take off. The flight crew will offer to sell inspection manuals for a reasonable price during the inspection period.
