March 27, 2024, 12:55:24 pm Mark says: Shocked Shocked Shocked Shocked  When Hamas spokesman Abu Ubaida began a speech marking the 100th day of the war in Gaza, one confounding yet eye-opening proclamation escaped the headlines. Listing the motives for the Palestinian militant group's Oct. 7 massacre in Israel, he accused Jews of "bringing red cows" to the Holy Land.

September 24, 2017, 10:45:16 pm Psalm 51:17 says: The specific rule pertaining to the national anthem is found on pages A62-63 of the league rulebook. It states: “The National Anthem must be played prior to every NFL game, and all players must be on the sideline for the National Anthem. “During the National Anthem, players on the field and bench area should stand at attention, face the flag, hold helmets in their left hand, and refrain from talking. The home team should ensure that the American flag is in good condition. It should be pointed out to players and coaches that we continue to be judged by the public in this area of respect for the flag and our country. Failure to be on the field by the start of the National Anthem may result in discipline, such as fines, suspensions, and/or the forfeiture of draft choice(s) for violations of the above, including first offenses.”
September 20, 2017, 04:32:32 am Christian40 says: "The most popular Hepatitis B vaccine is nothing short of a witch’s brew including aluminum, formaldehyde, yeast, amino acids, and soy. Aluminum is a known neurotoxin that destroys cellular metabolism and function. Hundreds of studies link to the ravaging effects of aluminum. The other proteins and formaldehyde serve to activate the immune system and open up the blood-brain barrier. This is NOT a good thing."

Spanish banks' bad-loan ratio hits 18-year high
18 April 2012, Madrid (MarketWatch)
http://www.marketwatch.com/story/spanish-banks-bad-loan-ratio-hits-18-year-high-2012-04-18

Spanish bank's bad loans ratio hit a 17-year high in February, with the ratio topping 8%, the central bank said Wednesday.

The Bank of Spain data showed that 8.16% of the loans held by banks, or €143.82 billion, were more than three months overdue for repayment in February, up from 7.91% in January.

This is the highest percentage recorded since October 1994, and contrasts with bad debt levels below 1% of all loans in the years prior to the 2008 collapse of the country's property market.

Spanish Banks Gorging on Sovereign Bonds Shifts Risk
18 April 2012, by Yalman Onaran (Bloomberg)
http://www.bloomberg.com/news/2012-04-17/spanish-banks-gorging-on-sovereign-bonds-shifts-risk-to-taxpayer.html

Excerpt:

Spanish, Italian and Portuguese banks are loading up on bonds issued by their own governments, a move that shifts more of the risk of sovereign default to European taxpayers from private creditors.

Holdings of Spanish government debt by lenders based in the country jumped 26% in two months, to €220 billion ($289 billion) at the end of January, data from Spain’s treasury show.

Italian banks increased ownership of their nation’s sovereign bonds by 31% to €267 billion in the three months ended in February, according to Bank of Italy data.

German and French banks, meanwhile, have cut holdings of those countries’ bonds, as well as Irish and Greek debt, by as much as 50% since 2010 in some cases.

That leaves domestic firms on the hook for a restructuring such as Greece’s last month and their main financier, the European Central Bank, facing losses.

Like Greece, governments would have to rescue their lenders with funds borrowed from the European Union.

“The more banks stop cross-border lending, the more the ECB steps in to do the financing,” said Guntram Wolff, deputy director of Bruegel, a Brussels-based research institute.

“So the exposure of the core countries to the periphery is shifting from the private to the public sector.
