Banned Russians : The Option

The Russian athletes,

now banned from any international competition,

may have the one and only option open to them.

Which is : hold their own competition

if only to prove to the world

that the Russians

(whether clean or unclean)

can out do better than the others.

Sad to say.

The Target?

The shooter at the Orlando gay club

may be gay

and if this be true he may have two motives:

the first motive is to redeem himself and his Islamic family

of the fact that he was gay.

And the second motive:

to get at the one person for his

unrequited love.

Whom did he shoot at first?

Was he there at the club?

Which motive holds more water?

IAAF Suspends Russia

IAAF bans Russia from the coming Olympic Games

because of doping in the past.

Without Russia competing means

there will be some monopoly of the medals.

 This implies that the Games

will not be international in structure.

This being so, it demeans the merit

of the medals that will be awarded.

The IAAF announced that Russian players who are “clean”

may compete

as long as they do not do this under the Russian flag.

This implies that there actually are Russian players

who qualify but are banned just the same

because they’re Russians.

Is God A Homosexual?

Is God a Homosexual?

Wait a minute, waaait a blasted minute!

Going back to the portrait that is the GENESIS.

There is seen Man, Woman, Snake, apple, and tree.

We forget the most important entity in that picture.

And that is GOD!

Of course He cannot be seen

He is the Invisible Presence.

And even if He can be seen

He cannot be painted nor portrayed.

Because He is GOD.

If any other entity could claim to be apart from

Man, Woman, Snake, Apple, and tree

 and still be present in the picture

It would be GOD.

If such is so, then GOD is a homosexual

Because He is different from all of these

And still can be present.

GOD is not Man, nor Woman, nor Snake, Apple, and Tree

And be still there.

Ergo he is a homosexual.

But why would GOD proclaim HIS Difference only now

When we have to re-proclaim His personages

From The Trinity to The Foursome?

Like

God The Father,

God The Son,

God the Holy Spirit,

And God the Ecce Homo!.

 

(this certainly cannot be gospel)

Doctor Assisted Dying

This is in Bill C-14 being debated in the Canadian Senate.

This would imply that it is legal and moral

to commit suicide via the medical doctors.

There would be four sides to have a voice in this bill,

the legal side, the medical doctor’s side,

the subject petitioner’s side,

and the side of the immediate kin of the subject petitioner.

The legal side represents the community

and will safeguard the legal and moral side by

laying down prerequisites and requirements

for the act.

The medical doctor’s side will have to follow

the legal aspect of the action by laying down

the reasons to justify the action.

The subject petitioner should give full consent

as determined by soundness of mind

and deteriorating body.

The immediate relatives should be in full consent

and full participation with all the

other sides in the completion of the act.

The public actually should not have anything to do with this.

While this may not be considered as an individual’s right,

it may still be considered as an individual’s last wish.

The Mexican Judge

Trump in negative publicity again

when he made a personal displeasure

against a Judge that will hear the case against him.

Of course the American public would call him

a racist after this.

Anybody else would.

But again he shoots from the hip.

He probably was giving out the reason

why the judge should exclude himself from the trial

for reasons that HE MAY Be BIASED.

Trump, through his defense lawyers,

should have been the ones to voice out the protest

against this judge, in front of this judge.

But Trumped quacked out loud himself.

On the other hand, with all the publicity

about his Mexican heritage being aired out,

the judge himself should have removed himself

from the trial, this being the most honorable

and unbiased thing that could be done

by an American judge

who is faced by accusations of being impartial.

The Greatest

Muhammad Ali

Everybody says he was the greatest.

He still is.

With all the tributes and accolades he has been getting,

I can say only one thing.

Muhammad Ali

He is one person whom I find

very, very difficult for me

to consider as black apart!

He belongs.

Some people do not like me,

More than half the files were deleted from the Control Panel.

I have started to restore them.

I guess I have to change some venues.

Gorilla Shot Dead

You know the facts already.

I don’t have to tell you.

Besides I am generalizing the topic.

Let it be “Animals Shot Dead”.

We humans have been cruel to animals.

We may not realize but we really are cruel to animals.

We beat them, we ignore them, we leave them there to die.

Our indifference to animals make us cruel.

Think about it this way:

The only thing that prevents us from treating them better

is that they are unable to communicate with us.

They understand us by way of reading our gestures,

and listening to how loud we talk to them,

or waiting for us to touch them as a sign

that we are cognitive of their presence and their needs.

If they do learn to communicate with us,

imagine how much protests would we hear from them

and the nature of their complaints against us.

Let us therefore learn how to communicate with animals.

The gorilla that was shot dead may haver been

too much annoyed when nobody understood

that he was merely protecting the child,

and that there was too much noise being made in the process.

Talk to animals and your pets with a gentle touch

and they will respond with eyes that talk.

LIBOR Scam

A federal Appeals Court in New York City has reinstated lawsuits against 16 of the world’s largest banks, including the Royal Bank of Canada, alleging they colluded to manipulate a benchmark interest rate.

The 2nd U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals in Manhattan on Monday restored the lawsuits, which had previously been dismissed by a lower-court judge.

The lawsuits were brought by people who bought investments sold by the banks that were based on a key lending rate known as LIBOR, an acronym for London Interbank Offered Rate, with evidence the banks were lying about and rigging in their favour.

A previous judge had dismissed the lawsuits because he said the LIBOR setting process was collaborative rather than competitive. That judge also found any manipulation of the rate did not cause investors anti-competitive harm.

But a new judge disagreed with that Monday, and reinstated the suits.

“Appellants sustained their burden of showing injury by alleging that they paid artificially fixed higher prices,” Circuit Judge Dennis Jacobs wrote for a three-judge appeals panel.

LIBOR is a lending rate that is the basis for hundreds of trillions of dollars worth of consumer loans and savings rates around the world. It’s a number, calculated and released daily by banks in London, that is supposed to show the rate at which they are lending money to each other for the short term.

 

The banks are alleged to have lied about their internal rates to put the LIBOR rate at a more favourable level for them. That would move other interest rates for consumers and businesses higher or lower than otherwise should have been.

“A LIBOR increase of one per cent would have allegedly cost the Banks hundreds of millions of dollars,” the judges said in the ruling.

Rigging the rate cost the bank’s customers — large institutions named in the lawsuit such as the University of California, and cities such as Baltimore, Houston and Philadelphia — billions over the years, money they are now trying to recoup.

The financial stakes of reinstating numerous pricey lawsuits for damages are huge. As the judges’ put it in their decision: “Requiring the banks to pay … damages to every plaintiff who ended up on the wrong side of an independent LIBOR?denominated derivative swap would, if appellants’ allegations were proved at trial, bankrupt 16 of the world’s most important financial institutions.”

Individual lawsuits could still be thrown out, but Monday’s ruling means they must all be reconsidered on a case-by-case basis.

In addition to the Royal Bank of Canada, the following banks are named in the suits:

  • Royal Bank of Scotland.
  • Bank of America.
  • Société Générale.
  • UBS.
  • Barclays.
  • Citigroup.
  • Credit Suisse.
  • Deutsche Bank.
  • HSBC.
  • JPMorgan Chase.
  • Norinchukin Bank.
  • Rabobank.
  • Portigon.
  • Bank of Tokyo-Mitsubishi.
  • Lloyds.

Worldwide, those banks and others have already paid more than $9 billion in fines related to LIBOR rigging, and almost two dozen people have been charged in relation to the story. The Financial Conduct Authority, a regulator that governs banking institutions in London, has said it will look at better ways of calculating the rate in the wake of the scandal.

A lawyer for the banks says they’re considering the ruling.
