BBC - 12/04/13

European Commission vice-president Joaquin Almunia describes the rate-rigging as "appalling examples of misconduct"
 

The European Commission has fined eight banks - including RBS - a total of 1.7bn euros (£1.4bn) for forming illegal cartels to rig interest rates.

The cartels operated in markets for financial derivatives, which are products used to manage the risk of interest rate movements.

Spy vs. Spy: Walmart's Corporate Surveillance on Black Friday

I took part in one of the 1500 Walmart protests this past Black Friday. It gave me a new perspective on NSA Surveillance.

Well before noon my husband and I were sitting on a sunny bench in front of theWalmart in Secaucus, New Jersey. To the Walmart security agents, conferring with groups of Hudson County Sheriff's officers, we must have looked like the silver haired elderly couple that we are. They didn't seem to realize that we, like they, were waiting for the demonstrators to arrive.

Stray Dog Accompanies Ukrainian Street Performer In Impossibly Adorable Duet (VIDEO)

He told a local news source that a stray dog approached him and began to "sing" along while he was playing the clarinet for spectators in the city of Dnepropetrovsk's European Square.

"It's not mine, [he] just came up when I sat down and began to play the first note," Ivanovich said.

The duo was a big hit. The video of their impromptu performance was viewed more than 240,000 times since it was posted to YouTube late last month.

And the best part? Ivanovich took the dog home with him after the show.

~ Karen Doonan ~ Working with smoke and mirrors

Eddie1177's picture

Many of you at this time may be experiencing vast energy surges and overwhelming emotions, this is all part of the emotional rebalancing that is asked for by the New Earth and the new energetic signature of Planet Earth, for as the planet heightens and expands in vibration and frequency then so do the children of said planet, the human race. For many the symptoms may appear and disappear apparently “randomly” with many of them perhaps placed at the door of “flu”, “colds” etc. It is to be noted that YOUr SOUL is guiding this entire process and that ALL within the universe is by DESIGN, nothing is by co-incidence or “chance”, all is a creation of the frequencies that exist within said universe.

I have blogged previously about the “smoke” and “mirrors” used by the old 3d earth as a tool to contain and suppress and perhaps one of the most distorted mirrors that is used is that of deep emotion, in particular fear and anger. Nothing distorts your vision like a surge of anger or fear and this is deliberate for it is only by clearing your vision that you may achieve balance, no one ever found balance through holding on to their anger.  At this time upon and within planet earth the human emotions are in overload, for many of you YOUr SOUL has chosen this as a “quick” release, a way of moving you rapidly through the denser frequencies is to overload the human vehicle so that surrender and outpouring of emotion is the option of choice. It may see many of you moved to tears of frustration as scenarios/events tip you “over the edge” and yet the release is what YOUr SOUL is trying to show you. For through the release of pent up and stored emotion there is a freeing of SELF.

ISON has come through with its purity of ancient and heavenly unadulterated energies programmed into the water of the comet it is. On Thanksgiving Day it integrated with our SUN as it rounded it bringing new encodings and frequencies altering our Sun, which again steps down the frequencies and sends out to our Solar System and US... ISON IS CHANGING EVERYTHING... Do ya feel it?
