Costa Rica: Vice President Biden's Brother Involved in Guanacaste Golf Project
Costa Rica
Vice President Biden's Brother Involved in Guanacaste Golf Project
By the A.M. Costa Rica staff
Developers of the Guanacaste Country Club said that construction would begin in December for a Jack Nicklaus Signature Golf Course. The announcement came from Craig Williamson, a principal in ERA Real Estate in Latin America, and Frank Biden, the brother of the current U.S. vice president. They said that the golf course, when it is finished, will host a Jack Nicklaus Academy of Golf
Biden is a fund-raiser with a religious group that does social work in Latin America. He also said he is a friend of Nicklaus' son Steve.
The Guanacaste Country Club is a 2,500-acre development which focuses on sustainable development technology and social responsibility, according to the two developers. Williamson is chairman of the Green Building Council of Costa Rica. He and Biden were last in the news two weeks ago when they said they were seeking to use the Green Building Council chapters to promote sustainable building practices and socially sensitive development in Latin American countries.
The project location is west of Liberia and the international airport there. It is inland from the Gulf of Papagayo. Developers say the trip by vehicle is just 15 minutes.
Said Biden: “Part of my regular work week involves visiting Nicklaus headquarters in Florida. I am a personal friend and business associate of Jack’s son Steve who, along with all his brothers, is a partner in the family business. I know the pride they take in their work and the responsibility they feel toward their dad and the family. I know
how proud they are of our commitment to the environment and the local community in Costa Rica. Helping us make this project something spectacular is a matter of pride for the whole team. It may sound old-fashioned, but it is the only way I want to do business.”
In a statement, Biden identified himself as president of Cygnus International LLC. He also is a major fundraiser for Hands in Hands Ministry in Louisville Kentucky. In November he was in Belize where Hands in Hands hopes to apply U.S. AIDS funds to the epidemic there. The charity also provides pediatric aids relief, building homes and providing scholarships for the poorest of the poor, Biden said.
"There is also a great and growing demand for sustainable homes as environmental awareness and energy prices rise" Williamson said in the release. "We are filling that demand by using the latest technology and techniques to create an eco-friendly community in this slice of paradise. Sustainability is the natural and only future option in society, and consumers and investors alike are coming to that realization. I've always held that doing well without doing good is an aimless pursuit, so I want to do whatever we can to move society in this direction sooner rather than later."
The project is in the pre-sale stage now, said the release. Also planned are tennis courts, swimming pools, a children's play park, fitness center and a restaurant and lounge with an outdoor patio.
The enviornmental arm of the Ministerio de Ambiente, Energía y Telecomunicaciones approved the project April 20, according to a resolution posted on the project's Web site.

Biden is a fake, and he no longer works at Hand and Hand Ministries. His actions speak louder than his words...

3- JACK MILLER -who steals from others, even close friends - who rats out others, even close friends, for small personal gain
4- JACK MILLER -has some major issues. He is a fool, he is a complete retard. Though the common douchebag thinks he is accepted by the people around him, yet is completely ignorant to how pathetic he appears to others.
5- JACK MILLER, Horny, selfish, and immature in nature, doesn't care about a girls feelings and will do anything to get laid. Possibly a cheater or a rumor-spreader, hated by the female gender. You are nothing but a schmuck.
6- JACK MILLER -yet never catches on to the fact that he comes across as a total loser. He fancies himself a ladies’ man, yet tends to be a joke to all but the most naive of women but only succeeds in his own mind. Who comes across as a wannabe overcompensating for his insecurities.
7- JACK MILLER -is a douchebag will often bring his SLR to bars to take pictures of good looking girls (with or without their permission), perhaps pretending to be a professional photographer. He will try to be in as many photos as possible (often posing with his arms around total strangers or his friends’ girlfriends) and post them on his personal websites in an effort to convince his online community that he is a big time bar-star. He is also likely to boast about his "conquests" (usually exaggerated or fabricated), failing to realize that this only serves to impress fellow douchebags.
