Buitre Funds keep picking on Argentina
Ever-rising legal costs and the inherent uncertainty of commercial litigation and arbitration create problems for companies that Burford helps solve.

The Sun is Overheating
The outside temperature is near 40 C which kills my mood for work. My clients are furious but the times when I could work 24 hs in summer are gone. The antigovernment demonstrations are continuing on the streets. The government is not falling for the opposition's provocations. From the outside it appears as if Israel is in chaos, yet, paradoxically, my shares are rising.

Mysteries of the Human Female
Primitive societies were organized to encourage or force women to give birth, but modern societies liberated them from this issue. So the problem of population decrease is only partially due to the males that do not want to marry. Females are responsible for much of this phenomenon. And thanks to the pill, now they are able to avoid pregnancy forever.

Patriarchy
Veii (pic god) was the Southern City of the Etruscan nation, which was at permanent war with the Latin nation. Rome (16 km) was its nearest Latin settlement. After hundreds of years of hostility, Rome conquered and evacuated Veii. Rome had been burned down and impoverished by the Gaul incursion, so the plebeian population decided to abandon the city and move in mass to the vacant homes and fertile farms of Veii.

Los Agotes
“Al agote, garrotazo en el cogote” es un dicho popular de algunas zonas de Navarra que ilustra muy bien la gran discriminación que han sufrido los agotes.

JAHAZIEL
JAHAZIEL jə hā’ zĭ əl (יַחֲזִיאֵל׃֙, God sees). 1. One of David’s mighty men who joined him at Ziklag (1 Chron 12:4).
2. One of two priests appointed to blow trumpets before the Ark when David brought it to Jerusalem (1 Chron 16:6).
3. A Kohathite Levite who lived in the time of David (1 Chron 23:19; 24:23).
4. An Asaphite Levite who encouraged King Jehoshaphat of Judah and his army to fight against the Moabite and Ammonite invaders (2 Chron 20:14ff.).
5. The ancestor of a family of exiles who returned to Jerusalem (Ezra 8:5; 1 Esd 8:32; KJV, ASV Jezelus).
I had never noticed this Biblical name till watching Evangelical neighborhood churches in Gran Buenos Aires. Formal Catholicism has disappeared among the poor in South America, and the Evangelicals from South USA (White and Black) are winning believers. The pastors are independent entrepreneurs, some call themselves prophets, and use many Israeli symbols. They are ignorant but charismatic and have rhythm. They are pro-Israel.

"Unusual"
Ukraine supports 90% of anti-Israel decisions in the United Nations, said the Israeli Ambassador to Ukraine Michael Brodsky. "This is unusual considering Kyiv often turns to the Israeli authorities for various requests," he said. "If Ukraine sees Israel as a friendly nation and makes requests from it, then it needs to support us in the matters that are important to us just as Israel works with Ukraine on matters important to it."
In a UN vote in January on referring Israel to the International Court of Justice for its “occupation, settlement and annexation of Palestinian territory”, Ukraine voted against Israel in the draft and didn't cast a vote in the main round after its ambassador to Israel was summoned.
Timna and the Tribe of Ephraim
When touring Sinai (Then, it was ours!), stopped at the Timna mines and visited the underground galleries. That was forty-five years ago and already I was too fat for any exploration in that terrible heat. There were multiple holes that served as ventilation vents. At that time, the site was deserted and virgin, now development & tourism has ruined it. I took pictures but I am not going to search for them now.

A bad day at work
After two or three days of lazying off, I lost the work rhythm and have difficulties running again on the rails. I wake up too early or too late and am unable to get work done. I have a meeting next Sunday in Emek Hefer Industrial Zone and I have to arrive with the plans. We have been working on this 2000 square meters thingie since January 2021, the owner made dozens of changes and I made dozens of different updating. I spent the whole day trying to make an order and now, at 22.00 I am giving up.
We have a serious family issue, my wife is trying to get appointments in hospital laboratories, but they are busy till September, and we cannot wait, so in the end, we may have to pay a lot for private care. I am going to bed with these worries.
P.S.: Woke up at 2 AM and ate half a melon. I had an erection and masturbation. Being a very old man, I am a bit surprised. The closeness of young milfs in the supermarket upsets my hormonal balance.

A good day at the Bourse

Maybe we are starting to regain height
Today's TASE and NASDAQ markets show an advance in the two or three stocks I am invested in. ZIM received BUY recommendations from several analysts. Only yesterday they announced ZIM's funeral.
In Argentina, Rogelio Frigerio is the candidate for the government of Entre Rios province. The Rogelio I knew was a Marxist ideologist allied to President Arturo Frondizi. It appears he had purchased an estancia in the province. So much for his "desarrollismo" - a long-forgotten ideology proposing accelerated, Stalinist-style industrialization of the country. The man ended up as a landowner. The current Rogelio is his grandkid, a born landed aristocrat, a conservative estanciero. I am so old that am able to notice history's irony.

Why are we left behind?
From Yahoo: All three major stock benchmarks logged strong performances for both the year's second quarter and first half. The Nasdaq is up more than 30% since the start of the year, according to Yahoo Finance data. That represented its best first half of the year since 1983, according to data from Bespoke Investment.
TASE on the other hand has lost height. The Americans are leaving us far behind. The god of the Americans is stronger than our god. Why? It goes against reason and sense. It is this bitter demon Ehud Barak who is spoiling our mazal.
