Don’t miss the point.

Don’t miss the point. Why should I take the heavy burden today if everything (the City of London Corporation culture) could be part of elaborate April Fool’s joke? Analyzing, putting in order, - just because in 28 of March I wrote in ‘The seven deadly sins’ that you are missing the point? Well, for one billion British Pounds (£1bn), people do most weird things possible. They blow to the sky the bridges, torch the cars, gust up metro stations, and even pull-off my ears, like this night, together with my sleep. First, they offer to me like a present two hands free headsets. That kind which used by the spies (medvedev and putin travels. Two dead by handling the stolen property in same day) and the body-guards, and which I call simply ‘Dead donkey ears’. Than four of them, pull off my left ear. Again, PSD/PP’s party lost theirs cross? Or just seriously run at risk to lose Brussels and Kremlin’s desk Officer fat salary? It’s good; it’s exactly where I am in. Although, it’s better by far, to take a folded piece of paper and wedge it under whichever “crippled” your leg is too short? You see by yourself that my critical eye make my ‘services’ as close to ‘just right’ as possible, providing to me and the community the PALPABLE results. That being picky in my notes, - give us it’s rewards. It may be not elegant (as was 110C in my place this winter, or as to run into the Zara Phillips jogging at “my” Lub’anka), but for sure, - it’s a non-destructive solution to “our” dilemma… But, hell with the gossip. More interesting though, is timing when this happen. Where you where in the August-September of 2008? Reading the Notes Mad of VIKTORG7? Or I am with my “colleague” and “co-worker” were cutting others (i.e. cross-dressed twats) off, when they’ve gone too far or still thinking to intrude on my territory? Seems, it’s important to keep my feet on the ground where the camels are travelling in Shach’s steps…

LONDON (Reuters) - Authorities are seeking the extradition of an eighth suspect still at large in an insider trading probe involving printing offices at the London branches of two top banks, a source familiar with the case said.

The men were linked to printing offices at Swiss bank UBS AG (UBSN.VX) (UBS.N) and UK brokerage Cazenove (JPM.N).
The case, which comes after a 21-month investigation, centres on a two-year conspiracy to deal on inside information in 12 UK-listed companies, including in media group Reuters during its 2007 takeover by Canadian financial data and news company Thomson Corp (TRI.TO) (TRI.N). The FSA said the trades took place between January 1, 2007 and May 31, 2007.

"We noted the action by the FSA yesterday, but we had no prior knowledge of the situation," said Carl Gibson, a spokesman at Misys.
Thomson Reuters, Vega, Premier Oil, Abbot Group, Enodis and Morgan Crucible all declined to comment. Officials at GCap, Biffa, Firstgroup (FGP.L), which now owns Laidlaw, Cable and Wireless (CW.L), which now owns Thus, and Fiberweb were not immediately available for comment. The investigation, codenamed Saturn, involved a team of 35 investigators, lawyers and support staff sifting through 75 electronic devices, 200,000 electronic files, 130 trading accounts and taking more than 250 witness statements.
The FSA, which had previously arrested eight in July 2008, declined to comment on whether it had requested city of Westminster Magistrates' Court to issue an international arrest warrant on its behalf for the eighth man. The court also declined to comment. The regulator has named those charged to date as Ali Mustafa, Pardip Saini, Paresh Shah, Neten Shah, Bijal Shah, Truptesh Patel and Mitesh Shah, who has also been charged with placing spread bets to launder proceeds.
