The Land Report’s 100 understand that owning a ranch is first and foremost an investment in a tangible asset that can grow and be passed on to future generations. Fay Ranches is an expert in recognizing and realizing ranch value. The supply of ranches is finite and decreasing and the demand is increasing. Ranches with profitable agricultural operations, exceptional views, unique water amenities or world class sporting opportunities are sought in today’s economic environment by savvy investors, expanding businesses, and families who value a genuine piece of the American tradition— room to roam. Helping others discover and claim the unparalleled and timeless gifts found on the lands of the American West is what we strive for every day. It is an honor to connect others with the open spaces, lifestyle, and values we hold dear. Fay Ranches is in the midst of the best year in the history of the company. We’d be happy to show you why.

    Testimony of Gene Kimmelman, Senior Director for Advocacy and Public Policy, Consumers Union Before the Antitrust, Competition Policy and Consumer Rights Subcommittee of the Senate Judiciary Committee On News Corp./DirecTV Merger June 18, 2003 Washington Office 1666 Connecticut Avenue, N.W. Suite 310 • Washington, D.C. 20009-1039 (202) 462-6262 • fax (202) 265-9548 • http://www.consumersunion.org SUMMARY Consumers Union1 welcomes this opportunity to testify before the Senate Antitrust, Competition Policy and Consumer Rights Subcommittee regarding the proposed merger between the News Corporation (“News Corp.”) and Hughes Electronics Corporation’s satellite television unit DIRECTV (“DirecTV”). Given the current concentration in the media marketplace, as well as the further concentration that will result from the Federal Communications Commission’s (FCC’s) recent relaxation of media ownership rules, we believe that the proposed merger between network and cable giant News Corp. and DirecTV, the largest direct broadcast satellite (DBS) service provider, will further increase prices for consumers and decrease the diversity of voices in the media marketplace. Today, consumers are not receiving the fruits that a competitive cable and satellite marketplace should deliver, and consumers are likely to suffer further harm if antitrust officials do not impose substantial conditions on the proposed deal between News Corp. and DirecTV. Since passage of the 1996 Telecommunications Act, cable rates have risen over 50%,2 and FCC data show that satellite competition is not creating downward pressure on cable rates. Despite the promise for more diversity from new technologies such as the Internet and satellite, a mere five media companies control nearly the same prime time audience shares as the Big Three networks did 40 years ago.3 Unfortunately, the market for news production and distribution is becoming more concentrated.

  • Women Cattle Drovers Discussion (Oct 1996)
    H-Women Women Cattle Drovers Discussion (Oct 1996) Page published by Kolt Ewing on Thursday, June 12, 2014 Women Cattle Drovers Discussion (Oct 1996) Query from Heather Munro Prescott Prescott @ccsua.ctstateu.edu 23 Oct 1996 A student asked me whether it was true that women were used as cattle drivers in the nineteenth century West. I told her I had never heard of this. Is it true? Query X-Posted to H-West Responses: >From Stan Gibson [email protected] 24 Oct 1996 ...I think the answer depends on what is meant by "cattle driving." IMHO, 19c women on the ranges were usually too smart to get entangled in long drives to shipping or sale points--if they did so, they probably were also too smart to boast about it, especially when they were aware of the hardscrabble wages offered. As for the 19c cowmen, there wasn't much reason to note the roles played by their unpaid womenfolks. Moving cattle from summer to winter pasture, and other short drives, however, were undoubtedly common--and probably acceptable--chores for ranchers' wives, daughters, and perhaps even the odd girlfriend. It must have been nice change from heating water on woodstoves, separating and churning, giving birth without nitrous oxide or spinal blocks, and just generally being "useful" back at the ranch. A day or two in the saddle, even today, is fun--and, from my observations recently, still fairly common on western ranches. I have also noted that the well-praised western male courtliness can have its limits, depending on the circumstances.

Vogel, Chair Professor John Zysman Professor T.J. Pempel Professor Stephen Cohen Fall 2010 Abstract Inside the Castle Gates: How Foreign Companies Navigate Japan‘s Policymaking Processes by Kenji Erik Kushida Doctor of Philosophy in Political Science University of California, Berkeley Professor Steven K. Vogel, Chair Multinational corporations (MNCs) are at the heart of today‘s global economy, but their effects on the politics of advanced industrialized countries have not been studied systematically. This dissertation analyzes the case of Japan, a country most likely to reveal foreign MNCs‘ influence. Japan developed for most of its history with an extremely low presence of foreign MNCs, but it experienced a dramatic influx from the mid-1990s, particularly in long-protected sectors at the core of its postwar development model of capitalism. The dissertation explains an observed divergence in the political strategies of foreign MNCs in Japan—disruptive challenges to existing policymaking processes and norms of government-business interactions, versus insider strategies, in which MNCs worked within established organizations and prevailing modes of policymaking.

  • 36 Kansas History DRUNK DRIVING OR DRY RUN?
    A Christmas Carol, which appears in Done in the Open: Drawings by Frederick Remington (1902), offers a stereotypical image of the ubiquitous western saloon like those frequented by cowboys at the end of the long drive. Kansas History: A Journal of the Central Plains 30 (Spring 2007): 36–51 36 Kansas History DRUNK DRIVING OR DRY RUN? Cowboys and Alcohol on the Cattle Trail by Raymond B. Wrabley Jr. he cattle drive is a central fi xture in the popular mythology of the American West. It has been immortalized—and romanticized—in the fi lms, songs, and literature of our popular culture. It embodies some of the enduring elements of the western story—hard (and dan- gerous) work and play; independence; rugged individualism; cour- Tage; confl ict; loyalty; adversity; cowboys; Indians; horse thieves; cattle rustlers; frontier justice; and the vastness, beauty, and unpredictable bounty and harsh- ness of nature. The trail hand, or cowboy, stands at the interstices of myth and history and has been the subject of immense interest for cultural mythmakers and scholars alike. The cowboy of popular culture is many characters—the loner and the loyal friend; the wide-eyed young boy and the wise, experienced boss; the gentleman and the lout. He is especially the life of the cowtown—the drinker, fi ghter, gambler, and womanizer. Raymond B. Wrabley Jr. received his Ph.D. from Arizona State University and is associate professor of political science at the University of Pittsburgh at Johnstown, Pennsylvania. The author would like to thank Sara Herr of Pitt-Johnstown’s Owen Library for her efforts in tracking down hard-to-fi nd sources and Richard Slatta for his helpful comments on a draft of the article.

Cowhands led the herds over miles of terrain to railroads where they could be shipped east. Life on the trail required hard work and long days. One cowhand described the cattle drive experience. I believe the worst hardship we had on the trail was loss of sleep. Our day wouldn’t end till about nine o’clock, when we grazed the herd onto the bed ground. And after that every man in the outfit except the boss and the horse wrangler and cook would have to stand two hours’ night guard.
