Someday try fresh bay scallops wrapped in bacon, they have to be bay scallops and not sea scallops and they will melt in your mouth. 😉 Until you put a fresh conch that has just been diced up with all the fixins for a refreshing powerful conch salad, you haven't had one of the most tongue tingling, mouth smackin' good eatin' experience in your life yet. I'm willing to try anything that has walked or crawled or swam or flew at one time or another...LOL! 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So again, a $1000/yr a family would not be insignificant. You are entitled to believe what you want. No harm no foul. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know in Naples Florida there’s a couple New England seafood restaurants , Bills is one of them on 41 headed towards Marco island,that have there seafood expedited over night but as far as bay scallops, we only catch them once a year around October and November when the season opens. 😉 Oh, okay. Thanks, Fred. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pretty much anything wrapped in bacon gets two thumbs up👍👍 Fresh figs stuffed with goat cheese, wrapped in proscuitto and then thrown on the grill until crispy. Drizzle with honey and it's heaven!!! Sorry, y'all made me hungry...LOL 1 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's not what I believe it's a matter of record. Iraq's annual oil revenue is approx $100B dollars. It varies with the price of oil of course but it's in that neighborhood. It's not $100B dinar. That's nothing. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Theseus Posted August 3, 2018 Report Share Posted August 3, 2018 (edited) On 8/2/2018 at 11:33 AM, happygilmores said: I just don't see how 10 percent of the current oil revenues spread out to 37.2 million Iraqis is going to make any real difference. But what do I know! Oky first the article talks aboutt a funding account to be setup six months after the signing of the law. Second, just becuse the account gets ten percent of revenues does not mean that is what the Irqis receive on a whole. Lastly, the fund is what the Irqis get paid from but no where in the article does it state when they will get paid. This Iraq dont assume they will get but anytime soon.

Popular Post pokerplayer Posted August 16, 2018 Popular Post Report Share Posted August 16, 2018 Today at 13:30 2018/7/31 10:02:43 AM Parliamentarians and economists and the Iraqi street are expected to sign on September 5, the date of announcing the activation of the law of the National Oil Company, which set 10 percent of the sales of oil to put in special funds for distribution to the Iraqis. To abide by the date stipulated by the law, to restore confidence between the street and the government, especially that the law will give each citizen a share of the oil of his country. The law of the National Oil Company includes a clause that the Executive Authority must implement six months after its approval by the Chamber of Deputies. The law entered into force on 17 April last after it was published in the official newspaper. On 5 March, Which gave each Iraqi resident within the country a share of oil deducted 10 percent of total sales. The MP for the province of Basra, Abdul Salam al-Maliki, the government to «respect the date provided by the law, most citizens are convinced that any law benefit from it financially initiated and not work, which will increase internal tension». Maliki said in a statement that «the law is a national achievement distinctive, and almost the best for the Iraqis since 2003, as will give each Iraqi share of the oil of his country in a fair and clear». He stressed that «the provisions of the law can reduce poverty rates and increase the welfare of the citizen and strengthen the national spirit and the sense of equality for all». "This law does not include Iraqis abroad. Therefore, it will be considered an invitation to the return of our children from the expatriates and immigrants. Our country is poor, but the conditions forced citizens to travel, along with the mismanagement and occupation, and resulting in chaos and corruption that led to unsatisfactory results for the people." As for the conflict of law with other laws, Maliki said: "It will not conflict with any other law such as petrodollars or oil licenses and oil investment agreements with foreign companies, because it is a deduction of 10 percent of the proceeds of selling oil in the United Nations Development Fund for Iraq, The transfer of funds to the Central Bank, which will distribute the amounts in the form of shares on behalf of every citizen ». And the quotas of oil-producing provinces, Maliki said that «the budget and in agreement with the Prime Minister granted provinces producing under the Petrodollar 20% will be devoted to the fulfillment of debts or allocations that have not been implemented during the past years with the actual quota of 5 percent for each barrel product, will be allocated service projects to productive provinces and develop their reality Al-Omrani, Al-Khademi and others. " "The National Oil Company has allocated a fund for generations, and the shares in the national company is not bought or sold because it belongs to the citizen, a law that would achieve economic benefit for the Iraqi people," said a member of the former oil and gas committee. The law required the Kurdistan region to hand over the quantities of oil produced in its fields to the national oil marketing company «Sumo», otherwise they will not be given to the residents of the region ».
