The firing a missile at the distant blurs.



The firing a missile at the distant blurs. Looking for American Markets of yesterday, was thinking, it not will be more accomplished by adopting a passive role than Like always, leaping like a crazy into action? It’s in any way all night was receiving from chulkcha with German name the big hitting in my head. Be more subtle to listen to someone than to give them a good “talking to”? After the “Sell me short”, in spare hour, read the E.M. Zacharias’ Secret Missions. The Story of an Intelligence Officer, New York, 1946. He was talking about agreement between the United States of America, Great Britain and Japan in 1920. Where the Japan agree with final “arrangement” in 5:5:3 ratio on battleships and carriers. I was thinking, if I have found myself in a complicated tangle with someone (i.e. SAMPAIO, Chubais, Barroso, etc.) the best way to resolve this is to have a frank and fair talk. Acknowledgment and know-how are the ‘brilliance’, ‘fidelity’, ‘spirit’, ‘star’, ‘forward’ and ‘leader’ – that is the essential ingredients here. However cross my mind will be. However who’s been nothing but irritating to me from what seems like the first moment I’d laid eyes on them has really been in my life for a far more important purpose than just aggravate me. It my make more sense to watch and wait till a target is actually in my sights than to fire missile at a distant target blur.

Lloyds mulls alternatives to government asset scheme. Fri Sep 18, 2009 2:32am EDT LONDON, Sept 18 (Reuters) - Britain's Lloyds Banking Group (LLOY.L:Quote, Profile, Research, Stock Buzz) said it was in talks over scaling back its participation in a state-backed scheme to insure it against credit losses, and was also weighing alternatives to the scheme.Lloyds is discussing a possible reduction in the number of toxic assets it might place in the so-called asset protection scheme (APS), encouraged by "improving economic conditions," the part-nationalised lender said in a brief statement on Friday. The bank said it was also in talks with the government and the financial regulator over "possible alternatives" to entering the scheme, without providing further detail. "All possibilities remain open," Lloyds said. Reuters reported on Thursday that the Financial Services Authority had set tougher-than-expected capital conditions on Lloyd's potential exit from the APS, making its departure less likely. Lloyds said in March that it would hand 15.6 billion pounds ($25.82 billion) in shares to the government in return for insurance against losses on 260 billion pounds of risky debt-backed assets, but final details of the programme have not been agreed.The bank, 43 percent owned by the state, is anxious to scale back its reliance on state aid to limit remedies European regulators may impose in response to competition concerns.

British Land finalises Broadgate deal. September 17 2009 23:07. British Land is to complete the sale of half of the £2.2bn Broadgate office complex to Blackstone, the private equity group, as it prepares for a fresh push into the UK property market. The UK’s second-largest real estate company was last night finalising the cash-and-debt deal, which will see the creation of a joint venture with Blackstone to hold the 32-acre City of London estate. While the cash payment, at about £75m, appears small, the deal means that British Land can offload to Blackstone half the £2.1bn of debt that financed Broadgate and will allow it to proceed with a new investment drive. The price, which reflects a yield of about 7.1 per cent, is likely to surprise the market, although it is only slightly under June’s valuation. The sale is partly a strategic move for British Land, given that its balance sheet was already strengthened by a £740m rights issue in March. It will complete a repositioning implemented by Chris Grigg, chief executive and former Barclays and Goldman Sachs banker, who joined in January. Mr Grigg made clear that there would be no “sacred cows”, including supposedly key assets such as Broadgate that were accumulated during the long tenure of the company’s former head, Sir John Ritblat. Broadgate comprised about 27 per cent of the company’s portfolio, seen internally as an uncomfortably high exposure to a single asset. That will now be reduced to about 16 per cent. There is also expected to be high costs in maintaining the ageing office complex and the risk that UBS, its largest tenant, could move in a few years’ time. Blackstone is one of the world’s largest office owners. British Land has spoken to a range of investors about Broadgate over the past six months. The deal will be the first for the €3.1bn (£2.8bn) distressed European real estate fund raised by Blackstone this summer. All parties declined to comment. The sale also bolsters British Land’s balance sheet at a time when it is planning a return to the real estate market. Next week, it is expected to complete the purchase of a retail park, its first property acquisition since the beginning of the slump. Bank of America advised Blackstone and UBS advised British Land.

Berlusconi wants quick Afghanistan pullout. 17/09 21:53 CET. Italian troops in Afghanistan have suffered their darkest day with the death of six soldiers in a suicide bombing. They were killed when a kamikaze rammed a car laden with explosives into a military convoy in central Kabul. Ten Afghan civilians also died in the attack, which the Taliban confirmed it carried out. It brings the total number of Italian servicemen who have lost their lives in the conflict there to 21 in five years. Italian Prime Minister Silvio Berlusconi called it a painful day for his country. “We are all convinced that the best for everyone is to get out soon,” he said. “I discussed this with President Obama during the G8, and we are preparing a plan which can be implemented more quickly, as the training of the Afghan forces gets better.” By saying Italy will withdraw its troops as soon as possible, Berlusconi is echoing the official line of many of his counterparts who are faced with plummeting public support for the war. But all have indicated that the job there needs to be finished first.

Полк президента Украины слег с пищевым отравлением. 17 сентября 2009г. Полк президента Украины временно утратил боеспособность. Как сообщает РБК-Украина, военнослужащие в массовом порядке отравились. В пресс-службе Сухопутных войск Украины подтвердили, что вечером во вторник пищевое отравление было констатировано сразу у 15 военнослужащих. После этого было принято решение о карантинных мерах по отношению еще к 138 солдатам, которые питались и контактировали с пострадавшими. Санитарно-эпидемиологическая служба уже провела обследование пищеблока, взяла анализы у персонала солдатской столовой и бактериальные смывы в пищеблоке. Также взята на анализ питьевая вода. Однако пока установить причину отравления медикам не удалось, а потому нельзя исключать и возможности вирусного заболевания. Полк президента Украины был создан после расформирования Национальной гвардии Украины. В него вошли части спецназа, которые не были переданы в подчинение республиканскому МВД.
