it was reported (mostly in the British press) around the time of the shooting and also when the grand jury refused to indict the guy.
best guess: maybe the police or prosecutor purposely biffed the case (weird that it took months to get a result from a grand jury)

also i have to imagine that there are also effects on the supply side: because of all these consumer trends, a higher percentage of ad spending has shifted to non-TV media, and that means companies aren't paying big bucks to auteur creative directors for high-quality TV spots as frequently

i mean i get falling in love with a place and idly wondering "what if i just moved right here, to this specific lovely neighborhood, right on the water?"
but then i don't whine and cry like a child when south beach, venice, dubrovnik, marbella, or st bart's turn out not to pencil out

they did, but even though the size of the position was over $400 million it still represented less than 1% of the total portfolio

"no, see, the fact that i engage in randomly frothing over zionist conspiracies everywhere whether or not they have any basis whatsoever in fact just makes me VERY SERIOUS about anti-zionism! how could you ever think that being so confidently loudwrong about this topic suggests i'm anti-semitic??"

all of these things can be true:
-bill ackman should not be managing harvard's money
-hedge fund-type strategies are usually ripoffs for their investors
-benchmarking the returns of a risk-attuned institutional investor like an endowment, pension fund, etc against the stock market is dumb

i think you could fairly argue that SF *is* unique for the proximity and accessibility that the main hotel district has to historically blighted neighborhoods. miami, boston, manhattan, vegas, DC, even LA don't really have it.
the point is still silly for other reasons, though

until the 1990s, sure. by 2013 hunter's point wasn't *that* dangerous.
plus it's not like there are any hotels there anyway - the players aren't wandering around bayview for fun. someone might claim "well uh maybe they stayed at the airport hotels" but it's more likely they were in union square

it really is wild. do they apply these same standards to learning how to stain your deck or grow tomatoes or bake a layer cake?
doing it badly at first is an integral part of the process! you can't learn and understand any craft without lots of screwing up!

it's overblown but that's irrelevant to the point anyway, which is that the "american dream," as amorphous and vague a concept as it is, gets quickly understood *even by immigrant populations* as a social compact that abundance is something you only "deserve" with diligent labor. uncut puritanism.

congress makes the law. then the executive branch's lawyers get to work and rewrite the law however they want to commit their preferred abuses. congress cannot say boo about it or the executive branch will charge them.

and yes, i get the obvious objection: "buh not everyone in congress agrees that the behavior is illegal/unconsitutional - that's contested!!"
okay, then why isn't the illegality of leaking the info *also* contested and thus consequence-free? real cool how this calvinball game works!

you can find plenty of examples like this of americans taking pleasure in food - american christianity wasn't a monolith and even laura ingalls's massachusetts ancestors were likely anti-puritans - but there's no denying that puritan views on (not) enjoying life run real deep here even today

briahna is well-off (and also kind of an idiot). she probably just gets food delivered most of the time, but ignorance has never stopped her from spouting off on a topic before so why should it stop her now!

you could use it in like half of things where you'd usually just season the dish with regular salt. i saute brussels sprouts and then finish them with fish and some freshly squeezed lemon juice; there's no law that says it only works with vietnamese dishes or sad homemade pad thai or whatever

and fish sauce keeps for months in the pantry, so it makes no sense to be like "i'm not buying it because that is an ingredient only for Events".
you can use it literally every time you stir-fry!
