In 1860, he published the History of the Railroads and the Canals of the United States, the grandfather of all investment publications.  It was the first major attempt to record the past and present operations of an entire industry and became the basis for what, in two years’ time, would become regularly published industry updates known as ____ Manual.

Stop Child Sex Tourism
    by Andrew Vachss

    Language—the most powerful weapon we humans have ever created. Sometimes, that weapon is used against innocent children. Take the term “Child Prostitution.” Journalists use it so often it has become part of our common language. But “prostitution” is the exchange of sex for money. Often called a “victimless crime”—in itself, a moronic statement—the public perceives the word “prostitute” as pejorative. Indeed, we call a person who “sells out” his/her moral convictions in exchange for personal gain a “prostitute”. The essence of “prostitution” implies consent. So when pedophiles talk about “child prostitution,” they (deliberately) further the lie that little children are “seductive,” that they “volunteer” to have sex with freaks…in exchange for cash that they never see. A despicable myth, lovingly nourished by the flesh-peddlers.

    Pedophiles want to sneak sexual exploitation into the “prostitution” continuum. If we allow the term “child prostitution” to gain a sufficient foothold in our language, we surrender ground to the enemy. There is no such thing as “child prostitution.” That term contradicts itself, “proving” a lie. This is child sexual exploitation, nothing else and nothing less. We need to change the language. We don’t change language with more language—we change it with behavior. And, sometimes, the highest form of behavior is what we don’t do…what we refuse to do.

    Perhaps you’ve heard—although if you relied on the American media, probably not—about the “war” against “kiddie sex tourism” in Southeast Asia, with [name of the country] being the main offender. Well, this hasn’t been anything close to a war—in a war, people shoot back. With your help, we propose to change all that.

    Not only is the foul “business” of kiddie sex tourism rampant throughout Southeast Asia, the “host countries” themselves have, by their conduct, proclaimed themselves proudly corrupt and profoundly evil. [name of the country] has been a safe harbor for predatory pedophiles from all over the world. But what [name of the country] has not been, up to now, is accountable. And that’s where you come in….

    What we need are warriors committed to force [name of the country]to change its ways. And our weapon of choice is BOYCOTT. We want Americans to boycott anything made or manufactured in [name of the country]. It sells its children like products. It traffics in the flesh of its own babies. For money. And the only thing that will stop it is the loss of money.

    Many products sold in America—from “figurines” fashioned from comics superheroes or cartoon characters, to video games, to sneakers, to dresses of ______ silk—are made in a country which is for many of its children, HELL ON EARTH.

    We want you to support the boycott personally and urge others to do the same. We want you to write about it, talk about it, sing about, upload it, paint it, sculpt it, soapbox it, editorialize it—whatever you can do to help bring the baby-peddlers down. The “Made in [name of the country]” label is a symbol of foul dishonor. It should be rejected by all consumers, not just those with children of their own. And the next time you hear someone use the term “child prostitution,” tell them the TRUTH!

    We want you to tell your friends to tell their friends. We want to have the world’s first “chain letter” that breaks chains! None of us will buy anything that says “Made in [name of the country]” on it.

    We can’t change a country’s morals, but we can sure as hell change its behavior. So Don’t! Buy! ______!—and tell them (all!) why.

    —Andrew Vachss

The Business Quiz

These quizzes are part of the TBQ Classic series

This is for private circulation.

TBQ –308

1) This town owes much of its identity to brass. For generations, the brass industry dominated the city, even as it created the city. Today, while the brass industry is a thing of the past, it is still known as the Brass City and the city’s motto, ironically, is still Quid Aere Perennius (What Is More Lasting Than Brass?). The city seal depicts the interior of a brass mill, an image that is almost indecipherable to modern eyes.

Its brass industry is traditionally considered to have begun in 1802 with the establishment of Abel Porter & Co., which eventually transformed into the Scovill Manufacturing Company. Its first generation of brass manufacturers did not set out to create a brass industry. Their initial goal was to produce buttons and clocks to be sold by peddlers as an alternative to farming, which was a limited success in this town. It is believed that the place turned to manufacturing because the quality of the soil here was too poor to sustain farming. Its early clock industry, begun by James Harrison in 1790, was intricately connected to clockmaking in Bristol and Terryville. Candace Roberts, daughter of Bristol clockmaker Gideon Roberts, was one of many young women hired by Harrison to paint the dials of his clocks.

The Scovill Manufacturing Company survives even today, along with the American Pin Company (established in 1846), the [City Name] Button Company (1849), and a famous watch company which was earlier named after the city’s name. Name the city/town and the watch company.

2) From the 1880s to the 1930s, a provision was in place that allowed investors to avoid double taxation — paying taxes on both the corporate and individual level — because trusts were not taxed at the corporate level if income was distributed to beneficiaries. This was reversed in the 1930s, when passive investments were taxed at both the corporate level and as part of individual income tax. After 30 years because of the high demand for real estate funds, President Eisenhower signed the 1960 “X” tax provision qualifying “X”s as pass-through entities.

A company must distribute at least 90 percent of its taxable income to its shareholders each year to qualify as a “X”.

“X” are corporations that own and manage a portfolio of real estate properties and mortgages. Anyone can buy shares in a publicly traded “X”. They offer the benefits of real estate ownership without the headaches or expense of being a landlord. Unlike actual real estate property, these shares can be quickly and easily sold. And because you’re investing in a portfolio of properties rather than a single building, you face less financial risk. What is “X?”

3) Harley Earl (standing in this photo) developed and introduced the legendary Buick Y Job to display the latest developments and trends in engineering and styling.

It was the first car developed with an eye, less on commercial production than on gauging public reaction to new technologies and designs, thus adding a new jargon to automobile marketing. What’s the phrase?

4) The choice of the name was deliberate. The unique distinction of the authentic ___ Roussel hybrid flower is its ability to enrich the soil wherever it grows. Historic references reveal that the flower provided succor and relief to the people struck by the adversities arising out of a severe famine: those who consumed it overcame. The company was created by a former Associate Prof of Chemistry at BITS, Pilani. He worked with Khandelwal Laboratories, May & Baker and then started on his own by buying the trademark from Charak Pharmaceuticals. Name him and the company he founded in 1968.

5) This mascot for this company’s high-speed Internet service is being replaced by another of its mascot which the company uses for its cable-TV and phone services. This logo- the drawing of a human eye and ear is all part of a strategy to bring some newness to the brand. The soon-to-be-replaced mascot is a famous cartoon character who is the ornithological bane of Wile E. Coyote’s existence. Name the company and the mascot.

 

 

 

 

 

6) The abstract of this recently granted patent reads thus:
A system provides a periodically changing story line and/or a special event company logo to entice users to access a web page. For the story line, the system may receive objects that tell a story according to the story line and successively provide the objects on the web page for predetermined or random amounts of time. For the special event company logo, the system may modify a standard company logo for a special event to create a special event logo, associate one or more search terms with the special event logo, and upload the special event logo to the web page. The system may then receive a user selection of the special event logo and provide search results relating to the special event.

What’s it all about?

7) [Tata Question] Identify this product.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

8) He dabbled into his father’s shipping agency business before getting hooked on telecom. He started [X] Telecom, precursor to his flagship [X] Telesystems, in 1987. It began by distributing Apple Computers and desktop publishing systems and then moved into manufacturing push-button phones and became among the country’s first Internet service providers. He sold the business and latched onto telecom infrastructure. Today his [X] Group, a collection of seven companies, is a provider of network services to telecom firms in 44 countries. Identify him and the group, [X].

9) It was in 1856 that a tannery unit was established based on the use of vegetable tanning technique popularized by the East India Company. The finished products were used by the Army. This unique process and craftsmanship of producing them has been adopted by the small-scale tanners in Tiruchi and Dindigul areas in Tamil Nadu for over a century. Name this leather which received a GI recently.

10) Pay brand-new employees $2,000 to quit; Make customer service the responsibility of the entire company-not just a department; Focus on company culture as the #1 priority; Apply research from the science of happiness to running a business; Help employees grow-both personally and professionally; Seek to change the world Oh, and make money too . . . Sound crazy? It’s all standard operating procedure at an online retailer that’s doing over $1 billion in gross merchandise sales annually.

TBQ Classic Sample 16

Despite the fact that the meal itself seems to be a recent invention, the actual term “X” may be a bit older. The OED has found that the term dates back to at least 1837, with its earliest printed reference being found in the “Memoirs of the Life of Sir Walter Scott” by John G. Lockhart. Although the earliest known exact reference to seems to have appeared in the April, 1958, issue of The Times.
“X” consists of a platter of food which contains, at a minimum, bread, cheese, and pickled vegetables, typically onions. Usually other additions such as a green salad are included, along with apples, pickled eggs and beetroot, or even things like pate. The name and ingredients of the “X” are meant to evoke a bygone era.

The movie, “X,” is some kind of studied analysis of the media world in Margaret Thatcher’s England during the time of the Falkland Wars. The movie makes the claim that the “X” was actually an invention of a marketing campaign to encourage people to eat in pubs, not an eat-cheese campaign run by the Milk Marketing Board. Some believe “X” was actually the product of a marketing campaign organized by the Milk Marketing Board in the 1960s, the objective of which was to convince more people to eat cheese. What’s X?
