The time has come for this international business blogger to bid you farewell. While working on this and brewha-ha has been fun, it has also taken a lot of time from my law practice and our blog, erblawg.

The US has been a leader in financial markets for quite a while now. Unfortunately, as anyone interested in international business knows, that may well be changing considerably. Why? Well, necessary deregulation combined with some archaic laws which remained led to a veritable regulation-phobia, and most everybody involved was making too much money to care. […]

Either way, they’ve changed the laws to make sure Alitalia will live on, although whether it will be a healthy life remains to be seen. Given the tough […]
So, while working on my last post, I found a cool tool I didn’t mention - it’s the National Atlas. You can click on a state and show its cities, counties, population, or even bodies of water. In fact, you can even display levels of arsenic in ground water, if you’d like, and you can […]
This blog isn’t really about politics, but a recent statement about Republican Vice Presidential candidate Sarah Palin struck me.
