Review: As the Wicked Watch by Tamron Hall

As the Wicked Watch by Tamron Hall My rating: 3 of 5 stars Susan Dalian (Narrator) did a good job of reading this, but I would have liked it better had Tamron Hall used her own voice. Still, it was too real for me. I really don’t like murder mysteries. Why can’t mysteries be more than that? Why make murder an everyday occurrence when, if you think about it, there are a lot of mysteries to look…

_____________________________________________

Name- Angel

Nicknames- Ange

Gender- Male

Age- 15

Date of Birth- May, 3rd

Height- 4'4'' (He smol)

Species- Blue Angel Slug (also known as Blue Dragon, Sea Swallow, or Blue Glaucus)

Weapons/Abilities- Ange is immune to poison/venom. He is able to absorb them to then use against foes. Venom is stored within pockets on his head and body, usually mixing with other toxins. Angel can then attack either using the cerata along his tail, his body, or fingertips (he can discharge at any time). Angel can manifest cerata on his head and back, which are translucent (and kinda glowy at night). Angel is able to breathe underwater.

Personality- Adventurous and loves to explore the unknown. Usually a true neutral, but also somewhat of a carefree goof. He prefers to sleep in the day and have fun at night (though being a mutant, that’s pretty much the life lol unless humans and mutants are co-existing somehow-). Ange isn’t much of a fighter, but can defend himself if he needs to.

I really don’t have much of a background for Angel, but he was stolen from an traveling aquarium that made international tours. He stung his captor and fell into a puddle of mutagen before getting swept into the ocean where he lives in a cozy little cave in which the only entrance is from underwater.

Voice- Susan Dalian (Voice of Haku from Naruto) Other/Facts- - IRL Blue Angel Slugs, like other slugs, are actually hermaphrodites. - Blue Angels store venom from other organisms, primarily Jellyfish (the Man O'War/ Blue Bottle mainly), in their cerata ( the 'fingers', they have 84 total) which is combined with other venoms (creating a super venom? I guess). - They float upside-down in the ocean in order to camouflage from predators or to hunt. Their backs, a silvery gray and a patterned blue underside. Though, for Angel, he's primarily blue with white spots. -Ange can't stand overly salty foods and prefers softer foods in general. He cannot stand spicy food at all.

___________________________________________________

The moment I saw a Blue Angel picture for the first time, I HAD to mutate it lol

I'm not sure where he'd fit in exactly, but he is a Next Generation character. Originally, I was gonna make his eyelashes glow too but, I think he's glowy enough-

Angel- TamaChan221

TMNT- Kevin Eastman

An anonymous bidder has agreed to pay a record $4,567,888 at an annual charity auction to have a private lunch with Warren Buffett, the billionaire chairman of Berkshire Hathaway Inc.

The winning bid, which was submitted during a five-day online auction on eBay that ended Friday night, was nearly one-third higher than the previous record $3,456,789 bids in both the 2012 and 2016 auctions.

Proceeds benefit the Glide Foundation, a charity in San Francisco's Tenderloin district that serves the poor, homeless or those battling substance abuse.

Buffett, 88, has raised about $34.2 million for Glide in 20 annual auctions, which began in 2000 and moved to eBay in 2003.

His first wife Susan, who died in 2004, introduced him to Glide after volunteering for the charity.

"Mr. Buffett is thrilled. We just spoke with him," Glide President Karen Hanrahan told Reuters after the auction ended. "Mr. Buffett is committed to continuing the auction as long as he's able. He has been a thought partner in thinking through Glide's future, and how to set it up for the next 50 years."

The winning bidder and up to seven friends can dine at the Smith & Wollensky steakhouse in Manhattan with Buffett, who says he will discuss anything apart from his next investments.

This year's auction drew 18 bids from five bidders.

The top bid would also be enough to buy 15 Class A or 23,137 Class B shares of Omaha, Nebraska-based Berkshire, whose more than 90 businesses include auto insurer Geico and BNSF railroad.

Past auction winners have included hedge fund manager David Einhorn of Greenlight Capital in 2003, and Ted Weschler, now one of Buffett's portfolio managers at Berkshire, in 2010 and 2011.

Glide's budget goes toward providing roughly 2,000 free meals a day, shelter, HIV and Hepatitis C tests, job training, and children's daycare and after-school programs.

"What it means to us as an organization: It's huge," Hanrahan said, referring to the auction. "It's going to help many many thousands of people in this city."

According to Glide, these bidders have won its auctions:

2000: Pete Budlong, $25,000

2001: Jim Halperin and Scott Tilson, $20,000

2002: Jim Halperin and Scott Tilson, $25,000

2003: David Einhorn, Greenlight Capital, $250,100

2004: Jason Choo, Singapore, $202,100

2005: Anonymous, $351,100

2006: Yongping Duan, California, $620,100

2007: Mohnish Pabrai, Guy Spier, Harina Kapoor, $650,100

2008: Zhao Danyang, Pure Heart Asset Management, China, $2,110,100

2009: Courtenay Wolfe, Salida Capital, Canada, $1,680,300

2010: Ted Weschler, $2,626,311

2011: Ted Weschler, $2,626,411

2012: Anonymous, $3,456,789

2013: Anonymous, $1,000,100

2014: Andy Chua, Singapore, $2,166,766

2015: Zhu Ye, Dalian Zeus Entertainment Co, China, $2,345,678

2016: Anonymous, $3,456,789

Os 5 assuntos que vão movimentar o mercado nesta sexta-feira

Os mercados devem encerrar a semana com mais um dia de volatilidade e estresse nas bolsas de valores. Na Ásia as bolsas despencaram com o aumento do número de casos do coronavírus na Coreia do Sul e o medo de uma crise econômica mundial.

As bolsas europeias abriram em baixa, com o avanço da doença na Alemanha e na França, enquanto nos Estados Unidos, que chegaram a 233 casos na manhã de hoje, empresas como o Facebook e a Microsoft recomendam aos empregados que evitem sair de casa e trabalhem em home office.

Hoje termina em Viena a reunião da Opep, com a Arábia Saudita defendendo um corte de 1,5 milhão de barris na produção diária de petróleo. No Brasil, o Banco Central já marcou para a manhã de hoje leilões de swap cambial para conter a alta do dólar. No noticiário corporativo, o Pão de Açúcar vendeu 43 imóveis para o fundo TRX, negócio avaliado em R$ 1,25 bilhão. Empresas como Hering, Santos Brasil, Natura e B3 publicaram balanços.

1.Bolsas mundiais

As bolsas da Ásia fecharam hoje em queda forte, com um sell-off atingindo até Tóquio, onde o índice Nikkei-225 recuou mais de 3% mas depois reduziu um pouco a queda. As bolsas de valores da Europa abriram em baixa, com Milão despencando mais de 3%, enquanto os futuros de Nova York estão negativos.

O número de casos do coronavírus superou 98 mil, informou na manhã de hoje o mapa interativo do Hospital Johns Hopkins, de Baltimore (EUA). Na Áustria, a Opep termina sua reunião de dois dias com a Arábia Saudita defendendo um corte de 1,5 milhão de barris de petróleo na produção diária. A Rússia ainda não se manifestou. Com isso, no mercado de commodities, o petróleo WTI cai a menos de US$ 45 na mínima; brent fechou abaixo de US$ 50 pela 1ª vez desde meados de 2017. Já o minério de ferro recua e reduz ganho semanal com receio sobre coronavírus e metais caem em Londres.

”O foco está na disseminação de coronavírus para fora da China e realmente os mercados não vão se estabilizar até vermos algum tipo de pico”, destacou Susan Buckley, diretora-gerente da QIC, para a Bloomberg TV.

Veja o desempenho dos mercados, às 7h19 (horário de Brasília):

Nova York *S&P 500 Futuro (EUA), -1,54% *Nasdaq Futuro (EUA), -1,68% *Dow Jones Futuro (EUA), -1,40%

Europa *Dax (Alemanha), -2,79%% *FTSE (Reino Unido), -2,35% *CAC 40 (França), -3,43% *FTSE MIB (Itália), -3,36%

Ásia *Nikkei (Japão), -2,72% (fechado) *Kospi (Coreia do Sul), -2,16% (fechado) *Hang Seng (Hong Kong), -2,32% (fechado) *Xangai (China), -1,21% (fechado)

*Petróleo WTI, -1,79%, a US$ 45,07 o barril *Petróleo Brent, -1,94%, a US$ 49,02 o barril

**Contratos futuros do minério de ferro negociados na bolsa de Dalian fecharam com queda de -2,18%, cotados a 650,000 iuanes, equivalentes a US$ 93,73 (nas últimas 24 horas). USD/CNY= 6,9348 (+0,11%) *Bitcoin, US$ 9.113,50 +0,45%

2. Indicadores econômicos

No Brasil a Anfavea – Associação Nacional dos Fabricantes de Veículos Automotores, deve divulgar pela manhã a produção de veículos novos em fevereiro – um termômetro de como anda o consumo de bens duráveis.

Nos Estados Unidos, o Departamento do Trabalho divulga às 10h30 o payroll e a taxa de desemprego de fevereiro. A estimativa é de criação de 175 mil vagas, segundo consenso Bloomberg, enquanto a taxa de desemprego é de 3,6%; ainda saem dados de balança comercial e estoques no atacado.

3. Dólar em alta

Após o dólar atingir uma nova máxima histórica, chegando a R$ 4,66 mesmo após o Banco Central oferecer US$ 3 bilhões em leilões de swap, a autoridade monetária anunciou a oferta de mais 40.000 contratos nesta sexta-feira, equivalentes a US$ 2 bilhões.

Na véspera, questionado sobre a alta do dólar, o ministro da Economia, Paulo Guedes, que “isso era perfeitamente previsível”. Em seguida, ensaiou uma lista de explicações: “Tem o coronavírus, a desaceleração global, incertezas… O que vocês (imprensa) estavam dizendo há um ou dois dias? Que está um caos, que o presidente não se entende com o Congresso, que não está havendo coordenação política, toda hora tem uma bomba… Se está havendo todo esse frisson, o dólar sobe um pouco.”

Guedes disse também que o câmbio preocupa quando sobe rápido, mas, para isso, o Banco Central (BC) atua. “Está provendo boa liquidez”, comentou. O ministro também afirmou que empresas que remetem recursos para fora do País também influenciam a cotação do câmbio.

4. Coronavírus no Brasil

O Brasil tem 8 casos confirmados do coronavírus, com destaque para o fato de que houve a transmissão local da doença em pelo menos um caso. Seis casos foram confirmados em São Paulo, 1 no Rio de Janeiro e 1 no Espírito Santo. No Distrito Federal, um paciente aguarda contraprova. Duas pessoas contaminadas em São Paulo têm relação com o primeiro caso registrado no país, de um homem de 61 anos que voltou de Milão, no Norte da Itália.

Por conta do surto de coronavírus, Jair Bolsonaro suspendeu viagem à Polônia, Hungria e Itália, segundo aponta o Estadão. Contudo, o presidente se reunirá com Donald Trump neste sábado (7), durante sua viagem aos Estados Unidos.Segundo o porta-voz da presidência, Otávio Rêgo Barros, “esta visita servirá para reforçar os vínculos com um dos principais estados americanos, que abriga uma comunidade de quase 400 mil brasileiros”.

5. Noticiário corporativo

O Grupo Pão de Açúcar (PCAR3) assinou um acordo para vender 43 imóveis para a gestora de fundos TRX. A transação tem o valor de R$ 1,25 bilhão e inclui combinações de aluguéis das lojas por 15 anos. Os imóveis pertencem ao grupo e neles funcionam supermercados e hipermercados das três bandeiras, Pão de Açúcar, Extra e Assaí.

Ainda em destaque, o Conselho de Administração da CVC anunciou o pedido de renúncia apresentado pelo CEO Luiz Fernando Fogaça, com efeitos a partir de 30 de março de 2020, sendo certo que até tal data o executivo continuará no exercício de suas funções de forma a contribuir no processo de sucessão. “Para ocupar a posição de Diretor Presidente da Companhia, o Conselho de Administração aprovou a indicação do Sr. Leonel Andrade. Leonel Andrade foi Diretor Presidente da Losango, da Credicard e da Smiles Fidelidade, ocupando por 15 anos o principal cargo de gestão dessas empresas”

Já B3 (B3SA3) Natura (NTCO3), Hering (HGTX3) e a Santos Brasil (STBP3) publicaram balanços na noite de ontem. A operadora da Bolsa brasileira B3 fechou o quarto trimestre de 2019 com lucro líquido de R$ 732,9 milhões, o que representa uma alta de 25,7% sobre o mesmo período do ano passado.

The price for lunch with Warren Buffett: $3,300,100

(Reuters) – An anonymous bidder has agreed to pay $3,300,100 at auction to have a private lunch with Warren Buffett, the billionaire chairman of Berkshire Hathaway Inc.

The winning bid came near the end of a five-day online auction on eBay to benefit the Glide Foundation, a San Francisco charity that serves people who are poor, homeless or battling substance abuse.

It was the third highest price in the 19 years Buffett has offered lunch, near the record $3,456,789 bid in both the 2012 and 2016 auctions. This year’s auction drew 136 bids from just six bidders before ending on Friday night.

The auction helps cover Glide’s $20 million annual budget, which goes toward providing roughly 750,000 free meals, shelter, HIV and Hepatitis C tests, job training, and children’s day care and after-school programs.

“Glide really takes people who have hit rock bottom and helps bring them back,” Buffett said in a statement.

Buffett, 87, has raised $29.6 million for Glide through the 19 auctions.

His first wife Susan, who died in 2004, introduced him to Glide after volunteering there. The Reverend Cecil Williams, 88, Glide’s charismatic co-founder, remains a minister at its affiliated church.

“The $3.3 million is an extraordinary gift, not just the money but the fact that Warren Buffett lends his name and reputation and shines a light on the work Glide does,” Glide’s president, Karen Hanrahan, said by phone. “Demand for our services is skyrocketing, in this city of innovation and wealth.”

The winning bidder and up to seven friends can dine with Buffett at the Smith & Wollensky steak house in Manhattan.

Buffett will discuss anything apart from what he might invest in next.

Ted Weschler, a hedge fund manager, paid a combined $5.25 million to win the 2010 and 2011 auctions, and later joined Berkshire as one of Buffett’s investment managers.

Berkshire has more than 90 businesses in the insurance, energy, food and retail, industrial, railroad, real estate and other sectors, and also invests in companies such as Apple Inc, Wells Fargo & Co and Coca-Cola Co.

According to Glide, these bidders have won its auctions:

2000: Pete Budlong, $25,000

2001: Jim Halperin and Scott Tilson, $20,000

2002: Jim Halperin and Scott Tilson, $25,000

2011: Ted Weschler, $2,626,411
