Toronto Used Yamaha Outboard

The List - Reflections on the new contest for the award of the Plaza de Las Ventas (6 of 7)

It is time to realize. Considering how far has been the management, which said the former Pliego, what has taken shape, what should be the objectives to be achieved in Sales ... Assuming that probably the most realistic model is the indirect management through concession touches to establish what should be the minimum content of the new Terms and Conditions. And for this we must focus on the key areas which should be the obligations of the concessionaire and the criteria scales of its bid.

As for the obligations of the concessionaire, I think that in addition to other instrumental character (address space conservation, reserve a number of entries to the Royal Family, the Community and the City, etc..), the main obligations in bullfighting should be: 1

. Organize Feria de San Isidro . This show should be a minimum of 0:01 up to sixteen celebrations and begin between 10 and 14 May. Of these festivities 1 should be a bullfight, another a celebration on horseback and the rest bullfights. In each bullfight, at least two of the three swords should be among the top twenty last year's ranking and / or included in a list of five swords prepare each year Taurinos Affairs Center of fighters of special interest that are not among those twenty. In the case of heifers and the shank, the three speakers should be in the top six last season's roster and / or included in a list of two bullfighters and two rejoneadores be developed by the Center Taurinos Affairs with the same criteria mentioned in For the bullfighters (these lists, in the case of bullfighters and rejoneadores only be developed if there tenderers outside the top six so warrants). For the purposes of novilleros would count the first six who had not taken the time to celebrate an alternative to the herd concerned. From the herd, at least fifty percent would be among the ten best of the season (considering as such those to which more ears is cut in squares first.)

2. Organize a full program of cultural activities and dissemination of the Party during the same days of the Feria de San Isidro , coordinating both own that they could organize associations, companies and agencies. Establish a communication program of the Feria de San Isidro and such activities.

3. Organize mini- Community Fair, a fair four or five festivals, which are held on the first day of the month May (including, where appropriate, one of the last days of April), comprising in all cases 1 and 2 May. Should have three heifers and one or two bullfights. In each of them, at least one of the alternate should meet the requirements set for the Feria de San Isidro.

4. Organize Fall Fair, a fair for four to six bullfights to be held continuously in the mid / late September or in two alternate weekends on those dates. At least 20% of the murderers should meet the requirements set for the Feria de San Isidro.

5. Organize celebrations all other Sundays and public holidays between the second Sunday in March and October penultimate , of \u200b\u200bwhich 25% are heifers and the rest of bullfighting. The employer would have the power to replace the celebration of one of the Sundays and public holidays celebrations in mini-fairs to organize, provided that each month has at least two Sunday celebrations (except in March and October should have at least one in each of them.) Between the date of commencement of each of these Mini-Fairs and completing any other fair or Mini-Fair has been held mentioned above (or the date of completion of each of these Mini-Fairs and the start of any Fair or other Mini-Fair to be held later) must be a minimum three weeks. In any case, Palm Sunday, Easter, August 15 and October 12 must be bullfights, festivals and above the monthly minimum specified.

6. Provide a certain number of animals for students of the School of Bullfighting , organize seven young bulls without picks in localities of the Community of Madrid and propose measures for improving the training of students and the opening of the fans ( annual cycle of lectures for students of the School is open to amateurs, training in which fans can participate, mechanisms to disseminate the celebration of students' education, etc.)..

7. Organize and open to the public in the Plaza area should provide Taurinos Affairs Center and put the successful bidder, a library and a video taurine, an annual program of activities.

8. The remaining auxiliary obligations included in the previous Statement, such as exposure of the bulls in Batan, recording the festivities, fans access section, routine maintenance of the plaza, etc.

9. Economic regime : (i) the fee would be closed (I think it could be 3,750,000 per year) and (ii) the maximum price would be the current entries with annual increases of half the previous year's CPI, except in the case of San Isidro festivities that would have a price 30% higher than current prices and would increase annually by the CPI.

10. Fertilizers : subscribers, to keep your subscription, should renew subscriptions each year for the Mini-Community Fair, the Feria de San Isidro and the Autumn Fair. For any other celebration will have preference in the acquisition for several days before putting on sale to the general public locations. (You will notice that in the fifth inning of this series indicated the possibility of being obliged to acquire some fans additional fertilizer. I think that despite reduced the Feria de San Isidro celebrations of the 23 previous Pliego 16, at increased prices by 30% San Isidro and establish a fixed fee of less than three bidders offered by the previous contest, is likely to reached equilibrium and the possibility of benefit of any contractor. Bullfighting Affairs Center should perform this analysis and, otherwise, the fee should be adjusted or set such mandatory subscribers an additional payment from the fairs to be organized, with the disadvantage of having to close before removing San Isidro subscriptions for the subscriber chooses.)

11. Television : rights TV broadcasting would be negotiated jointly between the concessionaire and Taurino Affairs Center, to be distributed 70% / 30% of revenue. For the assignment of these rights will take into account general information on television taurine chain or group that you belong to spread out the festivities.

with these obligations, the tenderers should make their offer to materialize the following, which would be subject to baremación:


A. Feria de San Isidro. In response to the quality of programming proposal: increase the number of tenderers of the first level with respect to compulsory repetition of shapes, combination of figures with unusual encastes bulls, etc. 25%

B. Cultural programming and broadcast media general information on the celebrations of the Feria de San Isidro and these cultural activities to be held during the same: 20%

C. Mini-Community Fair, Fall Fair and the rest of the season. In response to the quality of programming proposal: increase the number of tenderers of the first level with respect to compulsory repetition of the figures, celebrations with bulls encastes unusual (best with a certain level bullfighters) etc. 30%

D. Television. Agreement with a television (broadcast nationally, or as widely as possible taking into account the allotments of DTT) for information broadcast bullfighting in general news. The agreement relates to information taurine, at least, between March and October and not be limited to Madrid and / or the Feria de San Isidro, but the season in general, with special attention to the most important fairs of the season in Spain and France. To be assessed 9% taking into account the diffusion of the chain and the timing and quality of the information he wants.

E. School Bullfighting. activities to enhance the activity of this and to facilitate the participation of amateurs in their activities. 8%

F. Library Organization Taurine, Video Management and other cultural activities. assess quality of supply schedules to facilitate access to the fans, activities aimed at the younger, broadcast on general media and online activities. 8%

G. Canon. As indicated, there will be a closed canon to be paid by the contractor, so the economic aspect is not being valued.

H. Experience. experience is not being valued. Be required to tender a minimum experience in the management of first and second places at least 10 years under the previous criteria Pliego. But having this experience, having more is not being valued. (Actually it would be interesting to recognize also the experience in organizing events of great social relevance, but may not be the contest that.)

I. Dissemination of the Contract Documents. Once the award is made public the full contents of all bids in regard to areas A to G listed (no scripts or documents establishing the personality of the contractors, their solvency, finance data or Social Security, etc..) and the valuation of each of them by the Board of Trade.

Half Wigs For White Women

Reflections on the new competition for the award of the Plaza de Las Ventas (5 of 7) Exposure

In the previous post, probably the most important of the seven in this series together with that publish in a couple of days, I set out what are the goals that I believe should be pursued with the Plaza de Toros de Las Ventas. This is a basic consideration because only by defining these objectives can be determined what the best management system to achieve (something to which dedicate this post) and elements to be included in the Statement (issue I'll discuss in the next post, as I say, the other central part of this analysis). The management system and the Statement, in short, are not isolated, but something to be decided once it is made explicit what are the objectives to be achieved.

For reasons I fail to understand, much of the debate from fans in recent years has focused on the management model. Many advocates of management "concerned" that was used during part of the years of Lozano, to replace the existing franchise model. In my view, however, the management system is not more important. In fact, I would say is almost irrelevant. No matter how it is managed, but for what it is managed. If management implements a model of interest, but it is managed with the same criteria for the last fifteen or twenty years will not have won anything. And if it is managed through a concession system, but it makes a Statement to invite achieve the goals I set out in the previous entry, bids are evaluated according to these criteria and is appropriate monitoring of compliance by the concessionaire statement and its offer, the grant will be a system as good as any.

I think when it comes to management "interested" or models such as Santander, Vitoria and the French some places, what they really mean is that fans and management must exercise initiative and work to control and prevent the employer to rid your whim. I have my doubts, however, that it would work in Madrid. These systems can work if what is done is to ensure a fair more or less extensive, but limited. Apply for a place with a season as varied as I think Madrid would greatly complicate management. In addition, the plaza in Madrid there are some fans (probably much more organized that they are) who have a vision of the party tremendously biased against the figures, targeting a very specific kind of bull ... That is, a vision that, if imposed, I think it would extremely difficult to enjoy the bulls in Madrid and meet the goals to which we referred in the previous post.

Yes I support, however, to establish a transparent and continuous communication between the Administration, the manager and fans (both directly and through various partnerships). Much more than to involve them all in management.

must remember also that, in essence, the management "interested" is nothing but a system that does is that the Administration and the employer share the financial risk management. And I have no clear that the Administration involved in the result is good economic management to achieve the stated objectives.

In my view, in short, the award scheme is a good system, provided that the statement is adequate to achieve the above objectives, the amount of the charges is a reasonable amount and not decisive for the award, the Administration comply with control and monitoring function of the Statement and the offer of the bidder and establish formal communication channels between the Administration continued, concessionaire and fans.

The problem for me, not in the management model, but in realizing the objectives to be achieved. And from there develop a Statement that rewards and encourages the achievement of those objectives. To that will spend the next entry.

Funny Birthday Invitation Titles

Espartinas Reflections on the new competition for the award of the Plaza Las Ventas (4 of 7)

In the previous post, after review of the surprising award of 2006 that led to Taurodelta to manage the Plaza de las Ventas Plaza we explained how this poster is pretty bad throughout the season, Feria de San Isidro a manifestly improvement and social impact in decline. Despite which is still a very good deal for the Community and to the management company. We indicated, therefore, that the Community needs to seriously consider before drawing up the new statement, what are the objectives sought in the management office taurine. For these objectives is to which we dedicate our thoughts today.

When referring to the Statement of 2006 we said something that many sound like a strange technicality, but that is crucial: that the competition held to choose the manager of the Plaza de Las Ventas was a contest for the management of public service Exploitation of the Plaza de Toros. Ie the Madrid bullfighting considered a public service (as may be supplying water or cleaning the streets). If this is so, what is essential in this "service"? What the Community must ensure that the people of Madrid? By continuing the comparison with water, does that ensure that there is water in every home, quality water, a water at a certain price ...? And in bullfighting, what? Is it that there are many festivals and celebrations there very good, although less? Is that the prices are very low or have celebrations of interest, although prices are higher? Is that any torero to fight in Madrid for a niche or that only those who have proven their worth debut in Sales?

The answer to this and many other questions that will determine the Bid to be done. Or vice versa, the statement is made demonstrate what has been the answer given to these questions, it has made them or not Taurinos Affairs Center. And it is evident that in the minds of every politician and every fan is a different model of what it considers to be the Plaza de Las Ventas.

what I state now, for me, these objectives, briefly explaining each:

  • In my view, the Feria de San Isidro should be best show of the season. Fair where all posters are posters auctioned, where the figures repeated several evenings, where are the best herds in their best bulls (with the best, not the biggest or the most ostentatious). Fair would have to be made for every afternoon afternoons were big win. Then you can be or not. But we all know that there are combinations that further ensure the success than others. In San Isidro all combinations should be signs to justify any fan made five or six hundred miles. Obviously this implies making an Feria de San Isidro of no more than two weeks. And it would be fair too expensive. Having less festivities I think there should be no problem to upload the entries in this show a significant percentage compared to current prices (but only raise the prices of these runs, not the rest of the season).
  • La Feria de San Isidro should have an absolute impact in Madrid and throughout the world for its bullfighting during those days. Should be out in all media for taurine activity and parallel activity to be organized. Would be presented these days the best books bulls. Conferences should have distinguished intellectuals Fiesta enthusiasts. Should have high-level art exhibitions in galleries art. Would have concerts and events related to the field taurine (from flamenco dance through film presentations, etc.).. Should have awards at the highest level and would bring together the best of society. Should have culinary activities, entertainment, tourism, ... related to the world of bullfighting. La Plaza de Las Ventas and its surroundings should be a sign of the best I have in relation to bullfighting: You should plant stands, booths, tents, ... to get people closer to the world of bullfighting. There and in El Batan, which is expected to recover to expose the Bulls, who have classes practices for fans, kids activities, open activities of the School of Bullfighting ... During these fifteen days should be possible to spend all day with bullfighting activities, with the best bullfighting activities. And the company managing the arena should be responsible for coordinating everything and making a communication effort that would bring these activities to the general public through television, radio, internet, newspapers, etc.
  • The rest of the season should make posters achieved much better than the current signs of the now customary in San Isidro, probably. Should be given freedom to the employer to organize the season within certain limits. For example, you could make four or five mini-exhibitions of five or six festivals each. But mini-exhibitions that were linked in any way (or close) to San Isidro, or each other. It would be concentrating on certain points that advertising and communication, the Plaza could be active for longer, but that does not overshadow the San Isidro Fair should be the major center of bullfighting throughout the year. Looking to secure some income could be required for subscribers to keep their subscription, would be required to acquire, in addition to San Isidro, the Fall and one of these shows (for which all should be advertised together, for fans, in view of the posters opt). In this way, they ensure a minimum income standard and opens the space to interested viewers can go to runs of some interest to those now can not go by how hard it is to get tickets in San Isidro. Why not do, for example, a fair of fighters "artists", one of the herds in different spigots, another non-English bullfighters, ...? Madrid has to be square-season, but not with absurd signs every Sunday, but a consistent and attractive.
  • the extent possible, should avoid sales outside the square of the opportunities for the bullfighters. The bullfighters come to Madrid must be the best in the circuit, not to play heads or tails being in the profession if they are lucky and do something to keep the possibility of fighting one or two heifers each season.
  • same happens with the bullfighters alternative, although in this case it can be inserted into various posters bullfighters that are not in the circuit, but it is proven their worth and, for various reasons, fight little (if Juan Mora Victor Harbour, Manolo Sanchez, Luguillano, ...). To the extent possible, should be put to livestock to give a chance to win.
  • Sales must be a place where you see the best of livestock and where they see the variety of livestock. To do this, and you have to put it bluntly, is to lower the requirement on the fine appearance of the bull. You have to make a bull come with a rennet appropriate to their mating, and within the herd should come to consider what the farmer is more likely to attack, not to be larger, have more stock or whatever enmorrillado cornalón or more.
  • Sales must be an open plaza throughout the year to bullfighting, the fans and the general public. You have to energize the Museo Taurino, must be organized consistently and be better known cultural activities performed in the square, should open the library and video library that apparently are planned and could become a meeting point for fans throughout the year. If you also have a café where you deliver video TV bullfighting much better.
  • have to open the School of Bullfighting fans and link to the management of the Plaza de Las Ventas. The success of the introductory courses for amateurs show that they (are many) who want to be in contact with this world and learn more about him. Why not enable a space, as apparently exists in the Square Valencia, so that one day a week, on Friday, fans can go and fight bulls games? Why not organize an annual conference for the kids in the school that is also open to amateurs?
  • activities should be organized bullfighting come true for children and youth.
  • needs to improve web site sales, and build a true channel of communication with fans.
  • have to change the band, although this does not touch during slaughter, when sounds should sound like a real band (such as Seville, Malaga, Valencia, ...) and not as a brass band.
  • Although terms of the Community of Madrid and not conducting an activity of taurine, a serious study should be done to make the place more comfortable and to prevent rain or wind hamper the holding of shows. It is clear that this is a listed building and the number of subscribers makes it difficult to find solutions (in many cases would reduce the capacity), but it sure can move forward on solutions that are technically feasible and should be implemented to achieve if we give the Party's prestige and respect they deserve.

This is my vision of what I think should be the management public service operation of the Plaza de Toros de Las Ventas. This and other things. And according to these criteria must be decided what the best management system (management concerned, direct management committee taurine, grant ...) and how it developed the Bid, in case they are not direct management. To that will spend the next two innings.

Shifting Oxygen Hemoglobin

Reflections on the new competition for the award of the Plaza de Las Ventas (3 of 7)

in the previous post we reviewed the Statement that governed the 2006 contest. What happened with that Statement? Basically two very important things: that there were only three companies to manage the world's largest space and that the award was a major scandal and issued to the company that was recognized more experience with a difference brutal in this section compared to the other two bids. But one thing.

The 2006 competition were three bids: Simon Casas (Toreart), Thomas Whole and Taurodelta (Choperitas), which was quite remarkable considering that in 2004 there were eight companies that attended. Specifications may discourage the potential candidates or beyond the Pliego, who had considered that there were few real options.

But most surprising was the award, in which transparency was also not the strongest, albeit through from different sources juicy conclusions can be drawn.

The final baremación 81'41 Taurodelta total points scored by the Toreart 80'30 (Simon Casas) and Thomas 74'33 Integer.

Of the various criteria, the determinant was the "experience", which got 15 points Taurodelta (by being granted 97 years of experience), and 5'10 of Torart (39 years of experience) and 1.5 Whole Thomas (18 years of experience). That is, regardless of point of experience, Toreart (Simon Casas) had obtained 75'2 points and Taurodelta Thomas 72'83 Integer (current manager) 66'41. Or put Otherwise, the current manager won the competition by 1.11 points, but if he had not taken account of the experience (or had not been taken into account as it was made), points were lost 8'79.

In the economic section was the best of Thomas Whole, which tendered 5,409,000 euros (25 points), 5,200,000 euros bid Toreart (24'3 points) and Taurodelta 5,175,000 euros (23.92 points) . In any case, all offer around 50% over minimum royalties established by the Community.

For programming taurine, Toreart scored 20 points, Thomas 19 and Taurodelta Integer (current manager) 17'75 points.

In summary, Plaza de Las Ventas was awarded a huge difference in the value of "experience" in managing arenas of one candidate (Taurodelta) than the other two. And that candidate, however, was who offer was worse in all other sections (and, in particular, in the programming for taurine).

That award was pretty discussed can be seen in the media of those days. Available, for example, what he said Zabala de la Serna, which said The Confidential or monograph devoted El Toro Association, association that as you know the followers of this blog you have no particular sympathy, but I must admit that from his view, often biased, they continuously monitor what happens in Las Ventas.

is clear that the Community and in particular Ignacio González, Director responsible for these matters in Madrid, has no special sympathy for Simon Homes, which has filed numerous complaints and lawsuits against him. But it also seems clear that the best offer that was presented in 2006 (in terms of programming, cultural, media, etc.) Was not the winner. I'm not saying that the award was legal or not, first, because for such an analysis should have many more data available to me and, second, because the Judgement of High Court in Madrid November 19, 2009, endorses the legality of the concession, and we must assume that it is. What I am saying is that, beyond the legality of the grant, contract award was made allowing the Plaza only gerontocratic criteria and regardless of what was the most imaginative offering, which offers the best posters, a more balanced season or increased social and cultural impact the festival.

What has happened from 2006 to here is a result of this Statement and this award. It happened that, with differences between some years and others posters San Isidro are very bad and constitute a group that would not get paid more than 10% of the square at any location in Spain or France, and Madrid is maintained only by inertia groups. That although he had tried to cut the Feria de San Isidro, in practice the whole remains a tired month of bull because it was attached Anniversary Fair, Fair and crowned best overall subscribers buy because if you do not lose the figures that would like to see in San Isidro and not outside it. The rest of the signs of the season are an absolute disaster (except for Palm Sunday and Easter, which effectively has improved greatly in recent years, and August 15 has improved, but less).

More and more fans are not more than six or eight runs throughout the Fair and the rest given away or leave them at home. They calculate what they would entail a payment of those runs in another city and see how the price of San Isidro is equivalent but not in more than half of the festivities.

On the other hand, the social and cultural impact of the celebration of the Feria de San Isidro in Madrid and in the general media is becoming less and are disappearing daily radio talk shows, specials in the newspapers and many other bullfighting activities led to many homes throughout the month of May ten or fifteen years.

In the economic section, the Community of Madrid is much more money than you thought and that, therefore, intended to bullfighting, as explained very well Los Toros XXI Century. But both common and company get delicious benefits for a constant fertilizer San Isidro and the costs of signs for each Sunday are ridiculous, and between foreigners passing through Madrid (Chinese and Japanese, mostly) and unrepentant fans, income is earned enough to offset these costs (and win or lose only some money, as appropriate).

Madrid has, therefore, management based on the inertia of a subscription which is still renewed year after year and fill the space that allows one month each year, despite signs art infamous and unfortunate results. And the Feria de San Isidro has no social importance in recent years. Madrid Square is a landmark of the season, or for bullfighters and for the fans, although occasionally (very occasionally) is holding the miracle and see a bullfight and not be seen in any other place .

In this scenario, the EU has to decide for the next contest, if you want to keep these inertia or want to raise an innovative Bid for Sales is the essential reference in the world of bullfighting and no-bull for a few days (there will be to see how) the May. For in those days outlining all the economic and cultural activity that exists around the festival. And for the rest of the season, the square is a place of interest and not for beginners or those seeking a last chance to catch the car in a race that has not taken off or is about to end.

will have to decide what are the goals to be achieved in the management of the Plaza de Toros de Las Ventas in the coming years. And it will dedicate the next post.

Vision Looks Like Kaleidescope



CINNAMON Limon
over a year ago I had in mind to make this recipe of polvorones but for one thing or another, I've been putting off until Christmas.

These days, as I had more free time, I used to pay off my debt and I loved the result. Well, actually, we love them all.

is incredible, but the recipe that I got at the time of the Onega blog is perfect, but it takes a while, it is not complicated.

The result has been so successful that I will not wait for next Christmas to repeat the recipe.

CINNAMON Limon



750 gr flour 325 gr
lard

140 g of icing sugar (I've ground the coffee grinder)

1 tablespoon ground cinnamon

1 shot


anise Zest of ½ lemon


40 g toasted sesame seeds and a tad more to decorate



first thing we do is to toast the flour. I've roasted in a pan, not having a big enough, I've been doing repeatedly. To this end, I put the heat to medium and I have been stirring constantly, until golden brown color has taken.

Be careful because if you are not careful you can burn quickly.

This is the most cumbersome of the recipe. Once we have the roux, the sift and set aside.

Using the coffee grinder grind sesame seeds (I would have bought a herbalist and forth and toast). Once the reserve ground.

Now in a bowl, put the lard and sugar glass. With a whisk, or disponéis hand if it does not, we beat the butter and sugar until mixture is creamy us. Incorporate cinnamon, lemon zest and continue mixing.

now incorporate the shot of anise and continue mixing. Now add the sesame seeds that we had booked. Mix again.

It is now incorporated toasted and sifted flour we had booked. Gradually. The dough has to be soft and tender. Make a ball and let cool in the refrigerator for one hour.

After the time, extend the mass with a rolling pin, leaving it plump. I've left you with 1 cm thick. Now with a pastry cutter cutting polvorones going and going, placing the baking sheet to which you previously have placed a parchment paper. Polvorones once placed in the tray, sprinkle them over a few grains of sesame. With a finger pressing the seeds going to be sticking to the dough.

While doing this operation, we preheat the oven to heat only the upper, 210 º C. Once preheated the oven, we introduce the polvorones and bake for 10 minutes.

The area is to acquire a light tan, if you see that they get too white boys, you can turn up the heat a tad baked.

is important that you do not slacken with time for polvorones not stay too dry inside.

These amounts have left me about 50 polvorones that have nothing to envy those who buy for Christmas.

Reflections on the new competition for the award of the Plaza de Las Ventas (2 of 7) Reflections

As stated in the previous post to address what can the future Pliego de Las Ventas is the first thing to note which says present and what has resulted. Today we board the first thing (you say) and in the next post what kind of organization of the Festival has achieved this Statement. Regarding what I said the current Statement was based indicate that a copy of the Statement available to me which I think is the final and full version, but I could not compare because, incredibly, neither the statement nor the Deal of the present contractor are on the website of the Plaza de Las Ventas, or the Community of Madrid (Centre for taurine), as would be desirable in the interest of transparency. Current Bid

is a concession for the management of the public from exploitation Plaza de Las Ventas. This means, essentially, that the development of bullfighting at Plaza de Toros de Las Ventas is considered a public service (as may be supplying water or cleaning the streets) and the management of this activity will be not directly by the Administration, but a private company (the concessionaire) to assume the obligation to perform under which indicates the Bid and its supply and assume the financial risk (ie, the profit or loss generated).

are not part of the grant the Bullfighting Museum, the Cultural Hall Taurine (rooms Antonio Bienvenida and "Antoñete"), the caretaker's house and premises Bullfighting Affairs Center. Yes they are included in the rights / obligations of the concessionaire's operation of the pads, bars and restaurants of the Plaza and the broadcasts of the celebrations.

non-bullfighting activities have a particular scheme is not relevant for this analysis.

The Madrid bear all expenses incidental to ownership of the property (including major works and repairs) and the dealer all the expenses of the management of bullfighting and routine maintenance.

It provides an annual fixed fee of EUR 3,366,000, which can be improved by the tenderers.

The Technical Specification includes main duties of the contractor, among which are the following:

  • Minimum length of the second season before last Sunday in March to October inclusive. Shows
  • binding on all Sundays and holidays in the season.
  • At least 23 young bulls with picks during the season.
  • San Isidro Fair begins on May 10 and is made on consecutive days of 18 bullfights, three heifers with picks and two on horseback.

The award criteria are as follows (in percentage):

  • 25% financial offer. The score for each bidder is 25 x A / M, where A is the amount bid by the tenderer and M which has offered the bidder who made the highest bid.
  • supply 24% taurine. Each bidder must explain in detail the first season and show the outlines of the next. Especially valued the inclusion of at least one killer in the top 15 rankings in each celebration of farming and prestige. 9% is assessed to all Mini-Fair Community, San Isidro and Autumn, 6% heifers increased promotional, 4% to enhance the festivities of the season and 3% to enhance the Palm Sunday, Easter, 15 May, August 15 and October 12, 2% other bullfights (trimming, comic-bullfighting events, etc.).
  • 15% experience. It values \u200b\u200bthe experience of the management team in first and second places at the rate of one point for each season in places 0.5 points on first and second positions, taking into account the three seasons that are required to be submitted to the contest do not count and that if one of the bidders than 15 points, gives the most gets the 15 points and prorate the baremación the rest.
  • 14% advertising plan, economic valuation and destination.

    8%
  • suggestions, proposals, pledges and contributions to the Bullfighting School of Madrid.
  • 5% improvement with other offers (proposals of security, accessibility, modernity and comfort, improvement works in the building, improvements to the bullfighting museum, etc.)..

This data set, most known, but are more robust when exposed together, I think it outlines some conclusions of some interest. In the next login remember what happened, what were the criteria determining the award and what has happened since then, but get there the reading of the Statement itself provides startling revelations. The first is that the whole experience and the financial proposal represent 40% of valuation. Then the programming of the Mini-Fair Community, San Isidro and Autumn is only worth 9% of the total. However, the advertising plan is valued at 14% (why would an advertising plan if San Isidro Las Ventas is full and no rewards at all an entire season with figures?).

also surprising 9% of the activities Fiesta promotion, rather than because it seems more or less, but because it mixed in the same bag the introduction of traditional festivities (trimming, etc.) with cultural activities and activities of young people face. Obviously, it seems a Statement that values \u200b\u200bcultural impact of the festival.

For the season, we present a Feria de San Isidro with 23 celebrations, is not required or encouraged the existence of cartels auctioned at the fair, and prevents the major bullfighters are not in this show, but in one that takes place next week, which is what has happened these years Anniversary Fair.

Regarding the set of the season bulls are required to hold celebrations on Sundays and public holidays are treated to enhance five specific dates (Palm Sunday, Easter, May 15, 1915 August and 12 October), but there is no incentive to have signs of interest in regard to bullfighter, bullfighters or holdings.

And finally, the prices are the same for all the festivities. Very low prices compared to any other place for celebrations and towering relevant perhaps to other posters who, outside Madrid, it would take more than a couple hundred fans at the box office, at most.

A Statement, in summary, based on experience and money, proposing a long Feria de San Isidro not have to be interested because it has inertia, and a season that has to be long, but may be perfectly innocuous.

Posters Printed On Foam Core

about the new competition for the award of the Plaza de Las Ventas (1 of 7)

expires this year the last of the extensions which they were entitled to the present managers of the Plaza de Las Ventas, which implies the need for its owner, the Community of Madrid, to decide on its future management. From various media and blogs bullfighting fans have begun to make some reflections on this process ( Los Toros XXI Century, for example, has started the debate about whether it is preferable to the grant, or other interested management Taurología system In its survey raises a question about the most important of the new Specification). Even some of the top fighters, at a recent lunch with the President of the Community of Madrid, were concerned by the new Statement that should govern the future contest, criticizing the high fees payable by employers (which no longer be a manifestation Somewhat surprisingly, the first coming of the bullfighters and not the business and second, because it does not say what is achieved with a reduced fee, if a greater benefit to the employer, better pay for fighters, of farmers, ... or a decrease in ticket prices, which remain desirable in almost all the bullrings, there is concern in Madrid, where prices are the lowest in Spain).

share, however, these bullfighters and the professionals and amateurs who are already in this debate, that the party has a clear stake in this contest for the future management of Las Ventas. And that, for various reasons. First, the Fiesta is under multiple attacks in terms of its moral legitimacy and social presence, but the answer is still accurate or consistent, and Las Ventas is a banner, well used, can demonstrate the cultural values \u200b\u200band broad acceptance of bullfighting among various sectors. Second, because in the current environment of crisis cut economic and celebrations, a place of season is more necessary than ever. Third, because even though common among the stands Ventena much fundamentalist, this is a place that can demonstrate how it can be a decent party and, while festive, recovering an eternal and bullfighters bullfighting otherwise would not be in the circuit (as happened in the late Juan Mora in last Autumn Fair). And fourth, because Madrid is betting on the Fiesta, its President is fully amateur, and is aware that what is done in the first place in the world is both reference and many other places thermometer.

So along different entries in the following days I will make my thoughts on what are the elements that, in my view, be taken into account when developing future and related Statement which was already reeling at the end of the last San Isidro in three different inputs ( Conclusions I , Conclusions II and III Conclusions ). I am aware that this is an exercise of little practical relevance for its partial nature and that which shall draw up tender documents will have in mind other factors and interests that do not have to match the fans (and, in particular with my vision of the festival), but if something arises here serves to sharpen debate and that the statement not be developed only with inertia, it would have helped. Also, having illusions costs nothing ...

The way to approach this debate, however, will be something different from what I've seen so far. Try to do it in six steps:

  • In the next post will talk about the current Statement: What is the management system that includes, what are the main obligations of the contractor and the criteria to select the employer.
  • Then we conducted a brief summary of what, in my view, this Statement has got to Las Ventas. That is, what items supply were relevant to the selection of the contractor and what is the management which has led the duties and selection criteria Terms and Conditions.
  • later what the mission will point out that, from my point of view, Sales must be in the fiesta. That is, what they should try to get the new competition.
  • defined the objectives, the discussion will address the various management systems, pointing what (which) is in my opinion the most appropriate to meet those goals.
  • After the management system will point out what might be the criteria Selection of contractor to help you choose who could best comply with these objectives.
  • And finally, I will make some general reflections (but not of less importance) on fertilizers, the facilities of the Plaza, ticketing systems, returns, etc.

How Can I Get Brazillian Wax Kid



Cod




The recipe I propose today is that those of us who like the cod we love as it respects a perfect texture and flavor of this fish. It is ideal to make when we have guests because it takes us time and allows us to dedicate ourselves to preparing appetizers, desserts or even assemble the table.

Cod


Serves 4.

1
desalted cod fillet
1.5 liters of virgin olive oil
4 cloves garlic

For the garnish:


6 medium onions 1 jet oil
olive Sal
1 bag of mesclun lettuce



To make this recipe, I bought the cod desalting and vacuum-packed but if you buy salted need to desalt prior to, during one and a half or two depending on the thickness of the loins, with several changes of cold water and always in the fridge.

place the cod in a deep bowl and cover with olive oil. Also added 4 cloves garlic, crushed with skin but with the blade of the knife. Enter

the tray in the oven heat up and down to 80 º C for two hours.

After two hours, we get from oven and drain the cod. We remove the skin and bones and have clean and sliced \u200b\u200bin the dishes that we will serve.

oil and let stand to cool. Once cool, found that, if we carefully with a strainer into a clean container, it will be easy to separate the oil from the juice that can be released during cooking cod. This oil, once cast, can be used for other preparations because it acquires a fishy flavor.

This way of cooking cod, low temperature and for a long time, avoid it and lose flavor and virtually no properties lost during the cooking juices. It also maintains an incredible texture and shrinkage in the product.

While cod cooked in the oven prepare the garnish.

This low place in a pan with a splash of olive oil, onions, peeled and cut into julienne strips. The salted and let simmer, covered, stirring occasionally, until onion is cooked in its own juice and get a golden brown color and sweet flavor, which contrasts perfectly with the touch salted cod.

Now assemble the dish with slices of cod, onion and mesclun lettuce before washing.

When serving dishes flavored lettuce with a sand salt and a drizzle of olive oil.
