I hope this thread does go back to finance. I want somewhere where I can read big GD related financial news.

Thank you, John. I just looked at your explanations. Here are my opinions on them.

Western Europe: I agree with your rating. However, I would be prepared to move it back to a 3 in the near future as tensions continue to build up in Central Europe over the rise of Euroscepticism in the Visegrad countries. This, in my opinion, has the potential to revive WWII-era tensions, and result in an alliance between Germany and Russia against the Visegrad countries.

Middle East: It should've stayed at a 4. The wars Syria and Yemen are still raging. Erdogan is becoming increasingly belligerent. Relations between Iran and Saudi Arabia are at an all time low. Saudi Arabia is headed towards economic apocalypse due to its massive military spending and falling oil prices, an event that likely will prove extremely destabilising to the Arabian Peninsula. A Third Intifada may occur in the near future.

Russia Caucasus: It should've stayed at a 3 because of the returning jihadist issue alone. Erdogan's increasingly belligerent behavior doesn't help, either.

Kashmir: I agree with your rating.

China: I agree with your rating.

North Korea: I agree with your rating.

Financial: I agree with your rating.

Swine/Bird flu/Ebola: I agree with your rating.

Stage 4 — Normalization. Those who understand the forum understand the current deception from the Andropov file thread.

Contemporary sociologists criticize later definitions of social structure by scholars such as Spencer and Parsons because they believe the work (1) made improper use of analogy, (2) through its association with functionalism defended the status quo, (3) was notoriously abstract, (4) could not explain conflict and change, and (5) lacked a methodology for empirical confirmation.

The fourth ideologues.

There is a very simple test that you can make, even if you do not know much about Geopolitics or Political Philosophy, to see on what side you are.
I ask you to see what was missed as the current arc of instability from effects trended in the forums early.
The digital disease is the effect of the script that was seen very early in the forums.
H seen it very early and did a few others from the translation’s. Other than the political valley of dry bones we indeed will see what survives 2018
since we into it as few considered.

I think the forum shake up was needed as we enter this lingering phase identification process for the surfers.

As for financial forum clarity.

long - yes
short - yes

What side are you on?

Peace if you can survive them.

Nice to see you and your excellent prose back A. And long live "Surfers."

It is difficult to determine whether investors were irrational or had very favorable expectations about the specialized
skills of the fund managers.

DuPont Model breaks return on equity down into five components:

Pre-interest pretax profit margin = earnings before interest and taxes (EBIT) ÷ sales;
Asset turnover = sales ÷ average total assets;
Interest burden = (EBIT – interest expense) ÷ EBIT;
Tax efficiency = [1 – (tax expense ÷ (EBIT – interest expense))]; and
Leverage ratio (equity multiplier) = average total assets ÷ average shareholders’ equity.
When multiplied together, the pre-interest pretax margin, the interest burden ratio, and the tax efficiency ratio give us net profit margin (net income ÷ sales). Multiplying all five ratios together gives us return on equity.

As it was conveyed, bread and beer survived to pay dividends at the end of the day.

shinar

The curious denominative verb שער (sa'ar) means to be very afraid. What this verb has to do with the previous nouns is not immediately obvious,
but HAW Theological Wordbook of the Old Testament proposes that it might literally mean to bristle with terror.

The root-verb שער (s'r II) means to sweep or whirl away, usually in relation to a storm wind (Psalm 58:9, Job 27:21
and hence the curious image of our own culture of "(buck-)riders on the storm" ).

http://gdxforum.com/forum/search.php?ke ... sf=msgonly

The name Shinar may even remind a Hebrew audience of a combination of the words שן (shin), tooth, from the verb שנן (shanan), sharpen, both literally and figuratively of the mind or intellect; and ער ('ar), foe, an Aramaic loan word which is very sporadically used in the Hebrew text of the Bible.

Forgive us Father .

Isa 59:10
We grope along the wall like blind men,
We grope like those who have no eyes;
We stumble at midday as in the twilight,
Among those who are vigorous we are like dead men.

Politico spoke with Project Cassandra agents, who claim that the Obama administration stifled or undermined the agents’ attempts to prosecute high-ranking Hezbollah operatives.

From the valley of dry bones a single hair was seen.

I will take credit for no man's labours but my own. They have, indeed, been quite signal enough.
I will not dare to speak.--I have a certain just and legitimate pride, but I shall not, therefore, presume to boast of successes of which others have been the instrument. All successes in the mission field are due ultimately to Christ; for some he has made use of me, for others of other men. I will confine myself to those in which I have been myself directly concerned. Romans 15:18

Jackson Lears observed that “the religion of the Russian hack depends not on evidence but on ex cathedra pronouncements on the part of authoritative institutions and their overlords.” And this amicus brief is one such pronouncement. tyler

DSA and other Marxist groups have been actively recruiting Muslim activists all over the country. The Red/Green Axis, begun in pre-revolutionary Russia, is now very much a feature of political life in pre-revolutionary America.

The other crimes which the accused did not deny were probably connected in some way with the practice of magic. Sentences torture and death.

Journals of a empirical minded genius protected by a patron of logic in very dangerous times.

Anathemas are directed against the errors just as they are today from those who cannot understand.

In fact our only sources of information for that earlier period are two letters of Bishop Montanus of Toledo and a letter of Pope Vigilius.

Silence as was said also is the means to know one self which is a path to God alone.

There is also with them a writing which they call Celestiall, because they show it placed and figured among the Stars, no otherwise then the other Astrologers produce images of signs from the lineaments of Stars. There is also a writing which they call Malachim, or Melachim, i.e. of Angels, or Regal; there is also another, which they call the passing through the River
