News Forum - Pop singer Justin Bieber sells song rights for a cool US $200 million
You really have trouble comprehending don't you. I didn't say they were CEO's I said that you have some athelete not even a superstar earning more than a CEO but it is the CEO of a company who gets villified and not the third baseman hitting .231 that does. -

News Forum - Pop singer Justin Bieber sells song rights for a cool US $200 million
Yes there are, so but I am pointing deliberately to the top executives of the Fortune 500. These are the ones who receive negative comments about their compensation. They are the CEO's of America's largest corporations. No different than the 975 players in Major League Baseball. They have reached the pinnacle of their chosen occupation. There are tens of thousands of minor league and semi pro baseball players. But my comparison was between the Mike Trouts who got a $426 million dollar contract for playing center field. No negative comments. However let a CEO of a Fortune 500 company get a similar compensation package and the CEO gets villified. I don't have a problem with either. It is the marketplace dictating what a person is worth. -

News Forum - Asian woman arrested for pretending to be a student at US high school
From the instances I looked it's forging a government document It isn't murder but I don't think you can just shrug your shoulders at a 29yr old going to high school In a lot of the cases, they ended yo dating someone underage and I guess that is the big concern -

News Forum - The ‘bastards’ fight back – RTP catch Taiwanese starlet in a lie
This happened quite far from the area you described. This was between Rama 9 and Huay Kwang stations, and everyone who lives in that vicinity knows that it's the new "Chinatown". I hate to say it that it's far more likely the Taiwanese were mistaken for mainland Chinese by the police. -

News Forum - Foreign tourist under investigation for free climbing in southern Thailand
I was a serious, if not a particular talented, climber and mountaineer for many years in my younger life. I only 'soloed' on boulders, to avoid injury, but I free climbed, without aid , many routes in the UK and the Alps. I started my climbing at the end of the period when aided climbing became unacceptable on new and previously climbed routes and even one bolt placed at a crux could invalidate a new route in the minds of the climbing World, until some brave person free climbed it and removed that bolt. Your last sentence is right. Sport climbing is a whole new World to me and if it requires bolts to achieve it, then in my mind that is vandalism, but I'm old now and each generation makes its own rules. To me, leaving the rock as you found it, unprepared, no top roping and no pitons or bolts, only removable protection, is the purest form.
