We need leaders who think of the kids’ welfare and provide playgrounds and after school activity centers for our youth–instead of engaging in alcoholic consumption and other vices to numb their pains and frustrations. Our youth need real leaders to give them the reasons to dream. We surely need people who can revitalize our archaic educational system and make our students more competitive in the international arena.
The nation is hungry for leaders and people whose statements will inspire progress and economic momentum. Look, we live in a country that doesn’t produce anything. We even import natural salt and toothpicks, but we worry about turning a Presidential Palace into a museum? What is the economic purpose? Sadly we live in a country that doesn’t even own a viable research and development facility or our own ‘Silicon Valley’ yet we’re hooked on turning everything into museums. Any plans?I want to know! If you stand on the steps of the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York and look across the street, you’ll have a small chance of glimpsing the world’s richest person.[link widoczny dla zalogowanych].
On Thursday Mexican telecommunications tycoon Carlos Slim Helu, who is worth $53.5 billion, bought the Duke-Semans mansion, a beaux-arts townhouse directly across from the Met, for $44 million, public records show.

He bought the property from the descendants of its original owner,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych],[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], tobacco mogul Benjamin N. Duke, in 2006, paying $40 million.

Still, folks liked to show off-they just had to find a discreet way to do it. The basic tobacco set had four parts: the tonkotsu, or tobacco container; the kiseru, or pipe; the kiseru-zu-tsu, the pipe sheath; and the ojime, a pierced bead that served as a toggle to anchor the sheath to the container. Using these basic forms, artisans fashioned sets from every sort of material.[link widoczny dla zalogowanych] online.
The wealthy could buy sets made of silk,2011 USA version marlboro cigarettes wholesale,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], ivory,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], glazed leather, or lacquer. They were products of elegant design and were small enough to be inconspicuous. The tonkotsu of the middle class were more fun. They embody what the West calls folk art and what the early 20th-century aesthetician Yanagi Soetsu defined in a word he coined as mingei,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], literally “people art.” Yanagi wrote that mingei should be “unself-consciously handmade and unsigned for the people by the people, cheaply and in quantity…[with] no obtruding personality in them.” Tonkotsu fairly meets the description, except possibly for the personality part, because the maker’s sense of humor does shine through.
