Alas, a promised means of escaping Glenn Beck and the gay frogs (according to Darryn) has met a timely and unsurprising demise. Mars One Ventures, the corporate arm of the project that set out to colonise the red planet, has revealed to have been declared bankrupt by a Swiss court.

The listing was filed back in January but only now uncovered thanks to an eagle-eyed Redditor. A civil court in the City of Basel, where Mars One Ventures is based, declared the company insolvent in a January 15 ruling. Mars One creator Bas Lansdorp later confirmed this to Engadget, explaining that while the for-profit entity had indeed run out of cash, the non-profit Mars One Foundation was still active despite a lack of investment, and would continue to loo…

These are interesting times for Irish books retailer Eason, which this week asked the High Court to formally approve its plan to pay a 60 million special dividend to shareholders.

The grand old retailers plan is to free up close to 100 million in capital by completing the sell-off of a 13-strong portfolio of properties, including some of its own stores that would be sold on a sale-leaseback basis.

If approved by the court, the scheme, devised by chairman David Dilger and managing director Liam Hanly, would see it reduc…

Its no secret that to many California consumers, this winters Chapter 11 bankruptcy filing by Pacific Gas & Electric Co. looks as phony as a $3 bill.

Thats because bankruptcy filings are intended to protect companies and individuals whose financial survival is threatened. There is no evidence this states biggest utility is in such deep trouble right now.

Yes, PG&E has other kinds of trouble. It was convicted of criminal negligence in the 2010 San Bruno natural gas pipeline explosion that killed eight persons. A federal judge supervising the companys probation in that case accuses the company of killing people. It faces myriad lawsuits claiming it caused much of the damage done by the massive wildfires of the last two years.

But with a re…

A man ordered to pay Sh18 million compensation to the family of a businessman he killed in road rage has lost bid to be declared bankrupt.

Albert Mbogori, who served 14 months in jail for manslaughter, had pleaded with the court to declare him bankrupt because he didnt have cash to pay the award.

He killed Edward Benjamin Rahedi. In 2009 the court had awarded the family of Rahedi Sh12 million in pain and loss of dependency. The sum earned interest and now stands at Sh18 million.

Mbogori had said as a result of serving the jail term, his business went down and subsequently closed.

He relies on his wife, a teacher with a monthly salary of Sh355,000. He promised to conduct a fundraiser to pay Rahedis family if declared bankrupt.

Mr Justice Denis McDonald said the woman, a public servant in her 40s with net monthly earnings of some 2,900, is separated fr…
