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."

S&P downgrades India outlook to negative
25 April 2012, by Penny MacRae (AFP)

Excerpt:

Standard & Poor's on Wednesday downgraded India's credit outlook to negative as a weakening economy and gaping fiscal deficit put the country's prized investment-grade rating at risk.

The agency maintained India's rating at BBB-, but warned it faces at least a one-in-three chance of losing its status if its financial situation worsens.

The "BBB-" is one notch above "junk," which carries an increased risk of default and would see India having to pay higher interest rates on its public borrowing.

"India's investment and economic growth have slowed and its current-account deficit has widened, resulting in a weaker medium-term credit outlook," S&P credit analyst Takahira Ogawa said in a media conference call.

"We are revising the outlook on the long-term ratings on India to negative."

Asia's third-largest economy is battling stubborn inflation, the widest budget deficit of all major emerging economies, a weak fiscal position and slower growth on the domestic front.

Uncertainty in global markets and Europe's long-running sovereign debt crisis have added to the pressures.

----

India's fiscal deficit was 5.9% of GDP in the fiscal year ended on March 31, swelled by social spending programmes targeting the country's hundreds of millions of poor.

The government hopes to trim the deficit to 5.1% of GDP this year, but analysts are sceptical given the government's record borrowing plans.
