Burma The Silence Of The Monks

He was not the only monk to vanish. The few foreigners who have managed to enter Burma since the junta’s crackdown have noted how empty the country’s temples and monasteries seem. For centuries, Buddhist monks have been ubiquitous in Rangoon, Mandalay and other Burmese cities. Today, though they’re thought to number 400,000, they are far less visible. “What has happened to all the monks?” asks Shari Villarosa, charge d’affaires at the U....

Busch Has Matured After Days Of Ruffling Feathers Ticking People Off

Three-wide. Up against the wall. Onto the apron of the track. Busch didn’t care. He’d drive his car wherever he could to get where he had to go, and he didn’t care who he angered on the way. “Ruffling some feathers and pissing people off,” Busch says now with a laugh. That was the young Kyle Busch, the one who broke into the Sprint Cup Series with a lead foot and a hard head in 2005....

Business Going Up In Flames

In the months ahead much will be made of what happened at Cancun. Why did the talks fall apart, who won and who lost? There will be few clear-cut answers on the details, but odds are that a consensus will emerge on the larger importance of the failed summit. Cancun was a major setback for world trade, but it also exposes serious underlying problems in international economic cooperation, and represents just one symptom of decay in the leaderless global order....

Business Groups Scold Congress Over Stimulus Failure Say Trump Orders Not Enough

The U.S. Chamber of Commerce and the International Franchise Association (IFA) said the order signed on Saturday was “no substitute” for congressional action on the economy, adding that small businesses were being “hung out to dry.” They also called on lawmakers to set aside their “partisan priorities” in negotiations over the outline of the next COVID-19 relief bill, arguing that there was “no excuse” for inaction. In an emailed statement to Newsweek, the IFA’s VP of Government Relations and Public Affairs Matt Haller said: “We appreciate the administration taking steps to ensure unemployed workers will continue to make ends meet but unfortunately, due to congressional inaction, millions of small businesses remain hung out to dry....

Businesses Flee Illinois To Escape Blue State Stagflation Opinion

Perhaps the most famous purveyor of such fare, Portillo’s, began in 1963 as a humble hot dog stand in Villa Park, IL. It was founded by Marine veteran Dick Portillo and through hard work and terrific recipes, his business blossomed into a successful chain that now thrives as a publicly traded company on the Nasdaq. Recently the Illinois-headquartered company announced aggressive expansion plans—only, not close to home. In fact, Bloomberg News reports that this “beloved Chicago restaurant chain is looking outside Illinois for growth as population declines drive business elsewhere....

Byu S No. 14 Ranking Causes Upheaval Among College Football Gurus And For Good Reason

Notre Dame found a temporary home in the Atlantic Coast Conference (ACC) for a single season, and they have a full schedule of Power 5 teams. BYU, on the other hand, stayed independent, and had to schedule some lesser-known teams like UT-San Antonio and North Alabama....
