Starlings arrive?



 13/03/2009 21:00:21 Was confused with quantity of man with Pandit’s race around me yesterday. In Whitechapel, in Algate, in City – everywhere. All with friendly body language, flirting with me alone, with friends, nearby pubs, etc. Except, when I met, (another side of the street) at the front of London Metal Exchange, that, everybody knows shark called Robson Green, the xx from BBC’s Extreme fishing Programme, who by body-guards of macaroons resolved, that “now is the time to do my brother”, – all day was present in my thoughts with strange detail: he constantly was loosing his small finger. Maybe, I was wandering, thought, is that Mercedes 500 with TV crew inside? If yes, it’s Okay more yet after spoiled Anglo-Saxon blood in South of Germany, this Andrew of Cocaine Royal Family of Lancasters, was the proper bandit, or just looking for bandits (or Pandits). In any way, never try to understand what he seeks to tell me. (See article about Pandit’s). If not the old story about ongoing… - you know how I call them (Brussels and Strasburg), who even when passing less than twelve hours from shooting at the cricket team in Lahore, don’t stop the old song that “a preto”.  Who cares if I wrote about $47 billion. I can’t be the farm, manufacturing the fortune and go along with them. It’s not that easy. Fortune cannot be mass-produced, nor can be artificially engineered. Fortune comes when heart is clear, a mind is open, a spirit is willing and a need is real. Nevertheless, it’s not all story. At Brick Lane (how I hate live here, only one God knows!) I stumble on one guy early fifties, with gadget photo camera taking picture of me. With two or three thirty years old mal’chiki (meninos/boys). And telling them, to I hear, that this is not a happy spot. Mean, not Belmoral. Well, I come back to this chinocas mal’chiki more lately, when know-how of “Mountain and Mohamed” fairly well works. Where the “medvedev” at any rate, oblige me to wear sunglasses, put moisturizer on MY FACE, like that drunkard Huron, because of my some times (every day) proximity to Her Majesty the Sun (bloody pharaohs!) that could at times almost seriously hurt me … (See article about Ursa Bank) So what if I can see the perfect wormhole to noodle (See article about meeting between Obama and chinoca) – it’s not my manipulation and it’s don’t pay my bills. Even when ongoing piggy faces from Brussels and Strasburg impregnate me with an idea that “today, my boy let’s do the body-guard of “a preto”. I still think that the Marketing which I made in this week, given the circumstances, it’s actually brilliant and essential. And you, – ongoing… (You know how I call you) instead of spending tons on revanche make a beeline for the future and for all goodies that you have overlooked. In my turn, this kind of new direction I’ll try to see through Heisenbergs’s Uranverein (Uranium Club) alternative to the future of yours universe. In course of which I’ll attempt to get you message, products, influences and services (skipping tedious, slo-mo bureaucracy) with minimal expense from your greedy bastards pockets. Guerrilla Marketing is certainly goes to do strong comeback from such pirates like you, Solana, Barroso and Co, but I’ll continue blaze a new trail the remainder of the Month. Making all competition take a notice and experience pangs of envy. It also give you wander  with strong urge ask yourself why you are failed to give me that pittance of a rise. Like Banco Espirito Santo’s Salgado dis, “Este gajo vai fazer ate broch at quinentos paus… I.e. - For favour (£5) – going to suck my dick. At the Danzig Corridor, in the exact time of 7 100 Kcal/kg, (See article from Leninsk-Kuznetsky) I see the Putin with heavy breathing (maybe silicosis from Swiss clean 5 off-shores), for which I wait yet to be paid, without shaking my hand, ‘de bolina serrada’  run like a crazy to the West. A meeting between “a preto” and a “Black Russia. Ah, Karma, it's truly a beautiful thing.

Russian police free bank hostages, kill gunman. 3/13/2009, 2:05 p.m. EDT The Associated Press  MOSCOW (AP) — Russian security forces killed a masked gunman who seized five hostages at a Siberian bank Friday and the captives escaped unharmed, officials said. A man entered a branch of Ursa Bank in the city of Leninsk-Kuznetsky and took five employees hostage, according to police in central Siberia's Kemerovo province. Investigators said he was armed with a handgun and a grenade. About four hours later, Kemerovo Gov. Aman Tuleyev said special police had killed the hostage-taker during an operation set in motion while he and the regional police chief held on-and-off negotiations with the assailant.

Citi guarantees bonuses for London hires

Fri Mar 13, 2009 8:55pm GMT.  NEW YORK (Reuters) - Citigroup, a U.S. bank that has received $45 billion (32 billion pounds) from taxpayers since October, is paying multimillion-dollar guaranteed bonuses for salesmen and traders it has hired in London, people familiar with the matter said.

The bonuses in London will be largely in cash, some as high as $2 million to $3 million, and a senior Citigroup trader in New York told a recruiter he was willing to hire with cash bonuses in the United States, the recruiter said, asking not to be identified because of a client confidentiality agreement.

Banks have long handed out guaranteed bonuses to attract talented traders and salesmen, but the practice may draw scrutiny at Citigroup which, like Bank of America, has received the largest capital injection from the government of any U.S. bank. "A guaranteed bonus is an oxymoron -- a bonus should only be given for superior performance," said Richard Ferlauto, director of corporate governance and pension investment for the American Federation of State, County and Municipal Employees. "At this time, it is essential that Citi be able to recruit and retain personnel critical to revenue generation in our businesses that will help return the company to profitability," Michael Hanretta, Citi spokesman said. "There is still intense competition for the best talent around the globe and we offer competitive compensation in line with industry best practices," he added. Late last month, the government said it would boost its equity stake in Citi to as much as 36 percent, after the bank received $45 billion in taxpayer money and a backstop to cap losses on a $300.8 billion of toxic assets last year. The capital Citi has received through the government's Troubled Asset Relief Program (TARP) is not used for compensation or bonuses, the bank said in a February report: "Paying guaranteed bonuses in this environment is more of a minority practice .... I think it will attract some scrutiny," said Joe Sorrentino, managing director at compensation consultant Steven Hall & Partners, noting that he does not know the particulars of Citigroup's compensation practices. TARP CONTROVERSY. The government approved pay curbs for top executives and the top 20 employees at banks that have received more than $500 million under the TARP. Chief Executive Vikram Pandit told Congress last month that he will receive a salary of $1 with no bonus until the bank returns to profitability.
