Thanks to sexist inheritance laws, she's now a Countess in England and lives in a 14th century castle that has money problems. That's a long way from one of Tino's house parties! How did she manage it? I'll tell you.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>You see, she met this rugby dude in Vegas who happened to be Charles Courtenay, the son of the Earl of Devon. They eventually got married and had kids. Meanwhile, back on the 4,000 acre family estate called Powederham Castle, said Earl was having money troubles, struggling to upkeep the property. One source of income was hosting civil ceremonies, which brought in £200k a year. But that dried up after his license was revoked for denying a gay couple because their marriage was \"objectionable to his Christian religion.\" He then had to resort to \u003ca href=\"http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/uknews/6094363/Earl-sells-family-heirlooms-to-fund-upkeep-of-castle.html\" target=\"_blank\">selling heirlooms\u003c/a> to make ends meet. And then he died.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Earl's estate and title now belong to his only son. His three daughters, all older than their brother, get bupkis because ovaries. And now the artist formerly known as Rayanne gets to be called the Countess of Devon and her two young children are a Lord and a Lady. And everyone lives happily ever after...except for the new Earl's sisters.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp> \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>Sorry to bum you out with this tale of patriarchy.

Thanks to sexist inheritance laws, she's now a Countess in England and lives in a 14th century castle that has money problems. That's a long way from one of Tino's house parties! How did she manage it? I'll tell you.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>You see, she met this rugby dude in Vegas who happened to be Charles Courtenay, the son of the Earl of Devon. They eventually got married and had kids. Meanwhile, back on the 4,000 acre family estate called Powederham Castle, said Earl was having money troubles, struggling to upkeep the property. One source of income was hosting civil ceremonies, which brought in £200k a year. But that dried up after his license was revoked for denying a gay couple because their marriage was \"objectionable to his Christian religion.\" He then had to resort to \u003ca href=\"http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/uknews/6094363/Earl-sells-family-heirlooms-to-fund-upkeep-of-castle.html\" target=\"_blank\">selling heirlooms\u003c/a> to make ends meet. And then he died.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Earl's estate and title now belong to his only son. His three daughters, all older than their brother, get bupkis because ovaries. And now the artist formerly known as Rayanne gets to be called the Countess of Devon and her two young children are a Lord and a Lady. And everyone lives happily ever after...except for the new Earl's sisters.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

(He doesn't own the airstrip, the public school, and a handful of fields.) What he does own is some 425 feral cats, all residents of the Lana'i Animal Rescue Center, which exists on 3.5 acres of Ellison-managed land. Though the ranch was founded in 2008, before Ellison bought the island, the facility now receives veterinary and accounting support from the Peninsula Humane Society in Burlingame.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"http://www.buzzfeed.com/andrewdalton/welcome-to-larry-ellisons-cat-island#.jkZBdA30e\" target=\"_blank\">The whole piece is well worth a read\u003c/a> -- the pictures alone are amazing -- but our favorite part is that the unabashedly ostentatious Ellison has no desire to acknowledge his feline-philia.\u003c/p>\n\u003cblockquote>\u003cp>Although he has yet to visit the sanctuary himself, Ellison’s relationship with his own cats was remarkable enough to deserve two mentions in his 1997 biography \u003ci>The Difference Between God and Larry Ellison\u003c/i> (subtitle: “God Doesn’t Think He’s Larry Ellison”). Ellison’s biographer, journalist Mike Wilson, relays a story told to him by Ellison’s first wife, Adda Quinn. When Ellison’s cat Yitzhak died, Quinn said, he “took off two weeks in mourning. He was nonfunctional.” In another anecdote, Ellison tells Wilson he once returned home to find out his cat Clio died while he was out of town on business. Ellison had the cat’s body exhumed so she could be buried under her favorite tree. When BuzzFeed News reached out to Ellison for comment about his feelings towards felines, especially those on Lana’i, an Oracle rep declined to comment.\u003c/p>\u003c/blockquote>\n\u003cp>What gives, Larry? If you somehow don't think it's macho to come out as cat person, you're sorely mistaken -- even the \u003ca href=\"http://www.nytimes.com/2008/10/05/fashion/05cats.html?pagewanted=all&_r=0\" target=\"_blank\">\u003cem>New York Times\u003c/em> says it's okay now\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>All in all, it just seems uncharacteristic for a guy who doesn't seem embarrassed about \u003cdel>constantly and blatantly overcompensating for something\u003c/del> owning a boat so big he \u003ca href=\"http://blogs.wsj.com/wealth/2007/07/26/ellisons-new-yacht/\" target=\"_blank\">can't dock it anywhere\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\n",

In May, Forbes listed him as the third wealthiest human in America and the \u003ca href=\"http://www.forbes.com/sites/chasewithorn/2015/03/02/forbes-billionaires-full-list-of-the-500-richest-people-in-the-world-2015/\" target=\"_blank\">fifth-wealthiest human in the world\u003c/a>, with an estimated net worth of $54.3 billion to his name.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>What does he do with all that money? Well, he's given some of it to Harvard, donated to hospitals, and helped fund the Israel Defense Forces. He also owns several airplanes, including multiple military aircraft, and a handful of the world's largest yachts. He's been called the world's most avid \u003ca href=\"http://www.wsj.com/news/articles/SB10001424052970203499704576625341289900796?mg=reno64-wsj&url=http%3A%2F%2Fonline.wsj.com%2Farticle%2FSB10001424052970203499704576625341289900796.html\" target=\"_blank\">trophy-home buyer\u003c/a> (we tried counting how many houses he actually has for the purposes of this post, but quickly grew tired and gave up. It's more than 40. One is a villa in Japan).\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>What we didn't know about Ellison until this week: Like Dr. Evil, Freddie Mercury, and Taylor Swift before him, the Bay Area's resident plutocrat is \u003cem>really\u003c/em> into cats.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Over at \u003ca href=\"http://www.buzzfeed.com/andrewdalton/welcome-to-larry-ellisons-cat-island#.seAGW5jAQ\" target=\"_blank\">Buzzfeed\u003c/a>, SF writer Andrew Dalton paid a visit to Lana'i, Hawaii's sixth-largest island, 97 percent of which Ellison purchased in 2012. (He doesn't own the airstrip, the public school, and a handful of fields.) What he does own is some 425 feral cats, all residents of the Lana'i Animal Rescue Center, which exists on 3.5 acres of Ellison-managed land. Though the ranch was founded in 2008, before Ellison bought the island, the facility now receives veterinary and accounting support from the Peninsula Humane Society in Burlingame.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"http://www.buzzfeed.com/andrewdalton/welcome-to-larry-ellisons-cat-island#.jkZBdA30e\" target=\"_blank\">The whole piece is well worth a read\u003c/a> -- the pictures alone are amazing -- but our favorite part is that the unabashedly ostentatious Ellison has no desire to acknowledge his feline-philia.\u003c/p>\n\u003cblockquote>\u003cp>Although he has yet to visit the sanctuary himself, Ellison’s relationship with his own cats was remarkable enough to deserve two mentions in his 1997 biography \u003ci>The Difference Between God and Larry Ellison\u003c/i> (subtitle: “God Doesn’t Think He’s Larry Ellison”). Ellison’s biographer, journalist Mike Wilson, relays a story told to him by Ellison’s first wife, Adda Quinn. When Ellison’s cat Yitzhak died, Quinn said, he “took off two weeks in mourning. He was nonfunctional.” In another anecdote, Ellison tells Wilson he once returned home to find out his cat Clio died while he was out of town on business. Ellison had the cat’s body exhumed so she could be buried under her favorite tree. When BuzzFeed News reached out to Ellison for comment about his feelings towards felines, especially those on Lana’i, an Oracle rep declined to comment.\u003c/p>\u003c/blockquote>\n\u003cp>What gives, Larry? If you somehow don't think it's macho to come out as cat person, you're sorely mistaken -- even the \u003ca href=\"http://www.nytimes.com/2008/10/05/fashion/05cats.html?pagewanted=all&_r=0\" target=\"_blank\">\u003cem>New York Times\u003c/em> says it's okay now\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

The experts cited by the site say there are at least two and perhaps more species involves -- large green stink bugs (family \u003ca href=\"https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pentatomidae\" target=\"_blank\">Pentatomidae\u003c/a>) and some much smaller critters called seed bugs (genus \u003ca href=\"http://www.arizonensis.org/sonoran/fieldguide/arthropoda/nysius.html\" target=\"_blank\">Nysius\u003c/a>).\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The latest Burning Man post on the Six-Legged Apocalypse calls on participants to remember the event's \u003ca href=\"http://burningman.org/culture/philosophical-center/10-principles/\" target=\"_blank\">principle \u003c/a> of Radical Self-Reliance: \"Burning Man encourages the individual to discover, exercise and rely on his or her inner resources.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>As I said at the outset, one almost feels sympathy for those at the mercy of the seed bug's probing proboscis. Then you encounter what might be called Radical Self-Righteousness.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>You need look no further than the comments responding to Curley's original bug post to see that not everyone in the Greater Burning Man Enlightenment Sphere is on the same page.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>One \u003ca href=\"http://blog.burningman.com/2015/08/building-brc/a-second-generation-and-yeah-those-bugs/#comment-1239737\" target=\"_blank\">commenter complained\u003c/a>, perhaps more than a bit plaintively, that the reported Bug-nado might ruin a trip she has made a big sacrifice for:\u003c/p>\n\u003cblockquote>\u003cp>I am not a rich girl, I went broke to come to the festival and be at the whim of the desert… But being that I have paralyzing, allergic reactions to bugs I am disheartened to know that the money I’ve spent to burn will now be spent hardly being able to move.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>I hope BM does something to get rid of these bugs, because it’s going to be a very painful trip for me. I will still find my way through, however, without complaint. I can’t afford to have thrown my last $1200 down the drain.\u003c/p>\u003c/blockquote>\n\u003cp>You might imagine all the empathy that comment provoked in the Enlightenment Sphere. \u003ca href=\"http://blog.burningman.com/2015/08/building-brc/a-second-generation-and-yeah-those-bugs/#comment-1239798\" target=\"_blank\">For instance\u003c/a>:\u003c/p>\n\u003cblockquote>\u003cp>The origin of the event isn’t to pander to peoples sensitivities. Read the first timers guide please to help reassess your perspective. As a physician with allergy specialization having paralyzing disability from insect stings is unheard of. If you used your last $1200 to come to a non-life sustaining event, I’m more concerned about your safety overall moving forward in the universe. We are guests on the playa, it’s not for us to destroy nature for our comfort....\u003c/p>\u003c/blockquote>\n\u003cp>One other commenter \u003ca href=\"http://blog.burningman.com/2015/08/building-brc/a-second-generation-and-yeah-those-bugs/#comment-1239700\" target=\"_blank\">pointed out\u003c/a> that people who are worried about bugs should relax, bring lots of \u003ca href=\"http://www2.epa.gov/insect-repellents/deet\" target=\"_blank\">DEET\u003c/a>, and remember that Black Rock Desert is toxic by nature.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"You are breathing respirable glass and uranium dust,\" the commenter said. \"DEET’s like a rubber band wound next to a shotgun hole.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>No -- that and the 27,000-some vehicles out at the end of what amounts to a dead-end road -- not my idea of a party. But as others have pointed out, those desert bugs ought to be welcome as part of Burning Man's philosophy of Radical Inclusion.\u003c/p>\n\n\u003c/div>\u003c/p>",
