Bad Company
Contrary to speculation that singer Paul Rodgers named the band after the Jeff Bridges film Bad Company, Rodgers stated in an interview with Spinner.com that the idea came from a book of Victorian morals that showed a picture of an innocent child looking up at an unsavoury character leaning against a lamp post. The caption read "beware of bad company".[5]

Hsieh is first and foremost an innovative entrepreneur who has been in the home mortgage industry for over 30 years. After selling his last business to LendingTree, Hsieh saw the need for a tech-enabled consumer lender that offered something different than the banks and lenders at the core of the mortgage crisis. As the internet took off and with the future of online lending beginning to grow, Hsieh created LoanDepot; today, the company is considered the second-largest nonbank lender in the United States.
The player follows the story of Preston Marlowe, a recently transferred member of the US Army to the "B" company of the 222nd Army Battalion, known by many as "Bad Company" due to it being a conglomerate of "all the insubordinates, hell-raisers and troublemakers that won't fit in any other unit". Preston fights alongside Samuel Redford, Terrence Sweetwater, and George Gordon Haggard Jr. against the Russian Army, the Middle Eastern Coalition and the Legionnaire Mercenaries.
On what was supposed to be Redford's last mission before retirement, the squad is sent to move through more Russian territory when they find a house with the Legionnaires' insignia on a sign in front, Acta Non Verba - Latin for "Action, Not Words". Haggard sends Marlowe inside to check out the house. There, Marlowe finds the first case of gold. The squad had been given orders to destroy fuel and missile storage facilities and to then meet up with a US Armored Division and escort them into the Russian-held city of Zabograd. Bravo-One Charlie is sent ahead to clear the pass of anti-tank missile launchers and to escort the tanks to the other side of the town where the main assault is to take place. The squad is then sent to destroy a Russian radio outpost before they call for reinforcements, but they are too late as the call is made and more Russian forces arrive. Just then, a rocket is heard hitting a US tank nearby, to which Mike-One-Juliet sends the squad to defend it from the enemy reinforcements until more US forces arrive. Mike-One-Juliet then sends them to a harbor full of suspicious activity and says that if they do a good job, she could get them out the company and in to a better unit. They arrive at the harbor, but find that it is full of mercenaries. The squad, led by Haggard and the thought of gold, fight their way through, but after checking the bodies, find nothing. They then spot some trucks and watch them drive away. As they go, a bar of gold drops out of the back and they become determined to follow them and retrieve the gold.
Many of the maps in Battlefield: Bad Company are large to accommodate the many vehicles used on them. With the added ability of destructible environments, every building, tree, wall, etc. can be destroyed as the engine allows 95% of the world to be destroyed. The other 5% that cannot be completely destroyed are internal walls of buildings, buildings themselves, and certain terrain types such as large concrete docks or water. Battlefield: Bad company features a total of twelve maps.
Dalrymple is at his most gripping in detailing the various palace intrigues which were so fatal to the Indian regimes the Company Sahib encountered, throwing light on the oft-neglected support of new, predominantly Hindu banking and business elites, who backed British rule and financed their war machine against oppressive Muslim and Maratha warlords. Dalrymple rightly singles out the joint-stock company as the most revolutionary idea imported by the Company. By the 1780s Bengal had recovered the prosperity and stability that made it the envy of the rest of India and the basis of British military dominance.
John Lagrotteria, a shoe company sales rep who hired Cullen to cook for 14 in his Annapolis home, said it was the most stress-free party he and his wife have ever thrown because they didn't have to do a thing except talk to their guests.
The tab for a dinner for 12 starts at $1,170, and the company has taken off. Now Cullen and his wife Bonnie are also taking guests on the road. They'll travel to a Tuscan villa for seven days in October. The $2,688-a-person trip is already sold out. Next March, he'll be strumming his guitar aboard a tall ship in the Caribbean as he and his guests island hop to spots like Nevis and St. Barts.
You can't blame Jindal for being mad. But will he ever acknowledge that "compassionate hearts" were not sufficient to coping with this catastrophe? Did he ever ask BP how prepared it was for something like this? Or was he just counting on the company's "enterprising spirit"?
So there you have it: "Do something!" citizens shout to a government charged with protecting the environment in and around a Gulf of Mexico that is nobody's private property. Yet the government, it seems, can't do much of anything because the means of containing this unprecedented anomalous event are entirely in the hands of a private company. It was trusted to know what it was doing with complicated equipment that, it turns out, BP either didn't understand very well or was willing to use recklessly.
"Deregulation" is wonderful until we discover what happens when regulations aren't issued or enforced. Everyone is a capitalist until a private company blunders. Then everyone starts talking like a socialist, presuming that the government can put things right because they see it as being just as big and powerful as its tea party critics claim. 041b061a72
