lists the following arguments against leap seconds:
Leap seconds could cause disruptions where computers are tightly synchronized with UTC.
Leap seconds are a rare anomaly, which is a concern for safety-critical real-time systems (e.g. air-traffic control concepts entirely based on satellite navigation).
Astronomical time (UT1), which is defined by Earth's rotation, is not significant in most people’s daily lives.
His arguments in favor of leap seconds include:
There have been no credible reports about serious problems caused by leap seconds.
Some computerized systems that work with leap seconds are costly to modify (eg. antennas that track satellites).
Computer errors caused by leap seconds can be avoided simply by using International Atomic Time (TAI) instead of Universal Coordinated Time (UTC).
Desktop computers and network servers have no trouble coping with leap seconds.
Humankind has defined time by the Earth's rotation for over 5000 years – this tradition should not be given up because of unfounded worries of some air-traffic control engineers.
Abandoning leap seconds would make sundials obsolete.
Despite calls by some people to retain
leap seconds,atomic time advocates
also argued that leap seconds were a
burden because they were unpredictable.
SO WHAT DO YOU THINK THERE FOLKS ?
OR WILL YOU JUST SIT BACK AND WAIT
TO THE THERE AND THEN TO SEE WHAT
WILL THEN TAKE PLACE AND THUS BE !
AND IT IS NOT JUST ABOUT THIS
LEAP SECOND OR ALL THIS
POLITICAL GARBAGE GOING ON
OUT HERE EITHER !
ALSO WAGE GROWTH IS STILL MEAGER. PLUS... Lower-skill assembly-line jobs are being replaced by robots and software. Small retail operations are vulnerable to online services and bigger more efficient competitors. Construction jobs are only coming back in areas with strong population growth. Even energy jobs, once thought recession-proof,are disappearing as oil and other commodities plunge in value.
AND ALSO THIS CRUMBLING FROM WITHIN LIKE ROME DID WARNING ALONG WITH THESE
TID-BITS OF INFORMATION...
The U.S. ranked #12 globally for infrastructure in 2014, down from #7 in 2003, according

The warrior replies,
"I have trodden the winepress alone; from the nations no one was with me. I trampled them in my anger and trod them down in my wrath; their blood spattered my garments, and I stained all my clothing. For the day of vengeance was in my heart, and the year of my redemption has come." {Isa 63:3-4 NIV}

BUT HERE IN OUR HOOD WE ARE STILL GIVING GREEN GLADIATOR STEVE K. A BIG HOW SQUIRRELY GGG WHAT IS UP !!!
( DEDICATED TO SUPERHERO GLADIATOR STEVE K. )
SO IT'S BEEN A WHILE NOW AND A LOT HAS TAKEN PLACE AROUND THE GLOBE IN WHICH I KNEW IT WOULD ! BUT WE DECIDED AFTER OUR FINAL SEPTEMBER POSTING TO JUST SIT BACK AND WAIT AND SEE HOW ALL THESE THINGS WILL PLAY OUT BY THE START OF 2015 AND BEYOND !
BUT 6 MONTHS AGO I WAS FINALLY DONE AFTER MY 15 YEAR PASSIONSWORD ARENA BLOGGER AND INTERNET QUEST AND DIVINE JOURNEY ENTERPRISE RELEASE ! I FINISHED UP AND WITH THE CUTIE FLAPPER OF HER ERA... THUS ONCE AGAIN DEDICATED TO THE LOVELY, SENSUAL,CHARMING,BEAUTIFUL AND FASCINATING LOUISE BROOKS!

SO NOW HERE IS MY 2015 RETURN OUT FROM THE GRAVE " READY TO RE-ENTER NOW AGAIN THE COMING TERRORS ANDHORRORS THAT WILL SURELY EBB AND FLOW IN THE FOLLOWING DAYS, WEEKS AND MONTHS THAT ARE ARRIVING ALONG TIME AND SPACE'S CONTINUING FLOW !
NOW BACK TO THE JANUARY HERE & NOW WITH BIG DOW AND MARKET CONCERNS COMING UP ? AND HOW WILL THE STOCK MARKET MONEY TREE KEEP UP THROUGH THIS COLD BRUTAL ECONOMIC BATTLING WINTER THAT MAY BE ARRIVING REAL SOON! SO WATCH HOW OVER EXTEND YOURSELVES.
More volatile weeks coming for markets ?
Yes, stocks bounced back on Friday after five straight days of losses. Data reporting rising factory output and high consumer sentiment brought stocks back into the green, particularly in the energy sector. On Thursday a shocking announcement from the Swiss National Bank sent markets into a tizzy. The central bank rid itself of its euro exchange cap and lowered interest rates with almost no warning, creating what was described as a “bombshell,” for the economy. Continuously unstable oil prices and depressing bank earnings also led to the market's disappointing stretch this week.
But what will happen this coming week? Swiss shock and ECB look-ahead & Draghi!
“While it looks like new highs that suddenly ended, it’s actually been a six-month period of sliding sideways. For its been bond-like stocks that have propped up the crazy and unstable markets.
This could either be a healthy consolidation -- we’re going to find a new set of buyers at these levels -- or it’s showing a narrowing market that’s going to be much more vulnerable in the coming future.
The crazy shock move by the Swiss National Bank to prove that 2015 will be driven by things we can't anticipate. While the euro has fallen right to the floor with this change. In a normal world most all currencies move glacially. The bigger problem is that we are nowhere near a situation where markets are driving markets. It’s still policy makers driving markets and that’s going to continue and that means more volatility by definition in the future. So watch it !!!
FOR THE "YOU KNOW WHAT METER" IS POSSIBLY AT MAN THE LIFEBOAT TIME ?
IT'S NOT JUST OVER THE DOW & WHERE
STOCKS WILL GO, FOR THERE WILL BE
CERTAIN INCENTIVES AS WELL A STILL
FINISH OUT THE MONTH ABOVE 17,000 FEEL.
BUT STILL IN A 7 MONTH
OIL BEAR MARKET !
For oil prices have fallen below $46, any euphoria over
cheaper energy will be tempered by losses that are
starting to show up in investment funds, retirement
accounts and bank balance sheets. The bear market
has wiped out a total of $393 billion since June --
$353 billion from the shares of 76 companies in the
Bloomberg Intelligence North America Exploration &
Production index, and almost $40 billion from high-yield
energy bonds, issued by many shale drillers, according to
a Bloomberg index.
Thus the oil industry completed $286 billion in
joint ventures, investments and spinoffs, raised
$353 billion in initial public offerings and
follow-on share sales, and borrowed $786 billion
in bonds and loans.
BUT THEN BACK TO THE HERE & NOW...
ALL THOSE BULLS WILL START THINKING
THAT ALL THOSE BEARS ARE GOING TO TRY &
PUSH THE DOW UNDER 17,000. BUT WE THINK
THE BULLS WILL COME BACK A BIT TO TRY TO
KEEP IT ALL FROM GOING CONTINUALLY
RIGHT ONTO THAT BEARISH SIDE FEEL
AT LEAST TILL THE END OF THIS MONTH!
ALSO JUST CHECK THIS LINK OUT !
(an interesting number for you )
Semi-transparency on TTIP as Brussels hide behind Washington
On top of the Swiss shock, the European Central Bank meets next week and is expected to announce new stimulus measures. Plus the good old ECB is in the habit of merely rising barely to meet market expectations at this point.
And really the question is what effective use is QE going to be
when you have long-term bond yields already skirting zero.
PLUS THE OILY STUFF ITSELF - HOW FAR CAN IT GO ?
Plus now we have Struggling Drillers !
The three U.S. banks are also among the lenders
to other struggling drillers. The loans are backed by oil reserves that are worth less at today’s prices than they were when banks last performed scheduled revaluations of the collateral.
ALSO... There are going to be big loan losses and it’s going to hit multiple banks that have exposure to that credit. It will slow economic growth, it could ding real estate values, banks will lose money and their stock will get slammed.
ALSO DON'T FORGET TO... Flag Exxon because with “Chevron curtailing its stock buyback, these guys are obviously now playing defense on their credit ratings and on their dividends. I do think you’ll want to hear what they say in the future.”
Right now everybody is making
their big forecasts about oil !
As if the policy will remain the same through 2015. The policy that matters here is how much oil will ?
Saudi Arabia produce ? This is the big question ?
They’re not going to be the first to cut production
that is certain. That’s the key. They’re going to wait
for the weaker players to get out there. Producers need
revenue, and that’s where we’ll see a change. But...
REMEMBER THIS THERE FOLKS...
that although there’s been a 60% decline in
the price of oil since June, there hasn’t been
a large drop in supply or in national demand.
We’re outside of the world of economics
Crude is being driven by forces that aren’t
necessarily part of a policy…so the real nightmare
scenario is if the Saudis go ahead and decide
to curtail production and crude just ignores that.
Remember that moves in the U.S. equity benchmark have almost doubled from 2014 as oil's decline spurred concerns about deflation and earnings estimates fell the most since 2009. While investors are the most rattled they've been since Europe's debt crisis more than two years ago, an accelerating U.S. economy should calm them down a little. As for the S&P The index is trading at 17 times the projected earnings of its members, according to data compiled by Bloomberg. Valuations reached a five-year high at the end of last year.
BUT FOR NOW THEIR GOING TO TRY AND
STEADY IT ON UP A BIT HERE, SO ALL THOSE
FEELINGS OF A BIG DROP THUS MAY ABATE.
ANOTHER LITTLE KNOWN & BROUGHT FORTH ISSUE HERE IS...
49 record number of complaints filed by MSHA on behalf of miners in 2014.
SAD BUT TRUE ABOVE ! BUT NOW BACK TO THIS INFAMOUS ISSUE AGAIN BELOW...
Stocks are famously valued based on the expected stream of the companies’ future earnings. And that’s what makes this latest earnings season trend so weird. Strange butAll ofthe sudden, corporate results appear to seem to be taking a supporting role when it comes to the market moves. But if you look at the options market and the individual stocks that are due to report, the [average expected] move on earnings will be a lot less than it’s been in prior quarters.”
Yet overall growth is unimpressive, with the blended earnings growth rate (which combines the earnings that have been reported with analyst estimates of the earnings we are yet to see) sitting at 3.4 percent versus the fourth quarter of 2013, and the blended revenue growth rate at a meager 0.4 percent.
THUS WE SHALL BUT SEE WHAT WE SHALL SEE ?
NOW ON TO OTHER GLOBAL ISSUES THAT HAVE
BEEN HEATING UP NOW OVER THESE PAST FEW
MONTHS SINCE WE TOOK A REST FROM POSTING.
( We knew which ones where coming in which places ! )
So we just sat back and watched it all happen lately.
Why not, we called out too many not only right on Q. situations but also as many as they say, " hitting the nail on the head" nasty horrid happenings globally too.
AND WAS COMPOSED FROM... ( 1999 - 2003 ) on IMC ( Independent Media Center )
HERE IS A LINK BELOW TO MY WORK ON IMC, ONE OF FEW THAT HAS STILL BEEN LEFT UP OVER THERE AT IMC OVER ALL THESE YEARS NOW!
Then it's was time to Blogger Blog Posting Time ( 2004 - 2014 ) to the present day with this first January 2015 post, after taking a 4 month rest and by continuing like before by " hitting the nail on the head" each and every time too !!! YO !
Sorry to call you what you really are but...
We also knew the Demoweenies would lose to the
ReFuckyou-licans and that they would take over the
Senate now also. Best to let that one be left alone on
how it frightfully happened to the Wemore-Weenies. HIT THE NAIL RIGHT ON THE HEAD AGAIN !
AND NOW OLD MITCHER THE BITCHER TAKES UP THE CONTROLLING ROSTER OF FREAKS !
ALSO WATCH A SLEW OF PYRAMID SCHEMES ESPECIALLY THE FOREIGN -OVERSEAS GREAT GIVE ME MORE EQUITIES MARKETS.
AS WELL AS SOME LOOMING HEDGE FUND WILD WHEELING AND DEATH DEALING DEALS.
THUS NOW WITHOUT FURTHER ADUE
SO WHAT'S ABOUT TO SHAPE UP AND SO
TAKE PLACE THROUGHOUT THIS GOLDEN
GLOBAL PLANET IN WHICH WE ALL SHARE ?
MORE GLOBAL BIG INVESTOR TAKE IT TO
THE FURTHEST LIMIT PYRAMID SCHEMES !
FOR SURE AND NO DOUBTS ON THAT ONE.
BURR...IT'S COLD OUT HERE ! But it's going to be a heated up freeze on certain governmental troops out there in their own Passionsword Arena la - la lands making their "lets go " raids against these terrorist worldwide but are now sadly going to pay horrific prices for some of their stupidly un-planned for correctly, under-estimated and not carried through in the end with success.
FREEZE AFFIRMATION ...
then of a lot of their dead governmental military bodies. and don't forget once again the civilian count also ! in death and injury. NEW FORWARD FRONTAL TERROR ASSAULT FRONTS OPENING UP BIG TIME !
THUS BESIDES NOT ONLY THIS MR. FREEZE CHARACTER OF PYRAMID SCHEME FROSTINGS FREEZING UP ONE AND ALL BUT ALSO
WATCH OUT ALSO FOR...
ALL THOSE FRIGID NASTY COLD AND CHILLY
CONTINUED FREEZINGS AND BLIZZARDS ON THE OUTSIDE THAT SHOULD BE OF COMING UP GRAND HISTORIC MEASURE ! STAY KOOL !
THUS BY FRIDAY AFTER DRAGHI WILL
DRAG UP THE MARKETS ON THURSDAY
THERE WILL BE ANOTHER DRAG BEING
WATCHED FOR VERY CAREFULLY.
A near-stagnant economy and the risk of deflation
forced Draghi's hand six years after the Federal Reserve
took a similar step to inject cash into the U.S.
The 67-year-old Italian's gamble is that the
benefits of quantitative easing outweigh the threat
of a backlash in Germany and that the ECB ends
up bailing out profligate, reform-wary governments.
Global Divergence The ECB's shift exacerbates an emerging global
divergence in monetary policy. While the Fed is now
considering when to tighten credit, central banks
in Denmark, Turkey, India, Canada and Peru all
announced surprise rate cuts in the past week.
The Swiss National Bank shocked investors by
dropping a cap on the franc.
And also more sell-off's in eurozone government bonds will now follow !
In the U.S., three rounds of Fed stimulus helped the
S&P 500 (SPX) more than triple from a bear-market
low in March 2009. The central bank ended its
quantitative easing program three months ago.
The United States are reporting their third-quarter earnings coming up here folks ! So hold your breath, Right there Jim " Mad Money " Boo-ya Cramer !!!
TIME TO SELL ???
Also don't forget that earnings continue into the first week in Feb. 2015 with Exxon reporting on Monday; Chipotle, Disney and Wynn on Tuesday; Yum on Wednesday and Twitter, Dunkin Donuts and Michael Kors on Thursday.
SO IS THIS...
ALL JUST ABOUT MAD MONEY
MAD MONEY MAD MONEY $$$ !
OR PERHAPS IS THIS BY CHANCE...
A TOWORDS THE END OF THE WEEK
AND AFTER " DRAGHI'S " BIG TALK
MARKETS TICK UP SOME AGAIN ! ? THEN FALL AGAIN ON UNCERTAINTY ?
THE S&P ESPECIALLY, THOSE IN
FINANCIAL, TECHNOLOGY AND
CONSUMER-DISCRETIONARY SHARES !
BUT IN THE END THE DOW IS JUST
BUT ONE BIG INVESTOR CASINO
MAFIA ROLL EITHER UP OR DOWN !
BUT WE THINK AT THE BEGINNING OF
NEXT WEEK DUE TO ISSUES LIKE GREECE
THE U.S STOCK INDEX FUTURES WILL DIP SOME
OVER BIG TIME CONCERNS NOT ONLY OVER THE
E.U. BUT SOME KEY EARNINGS AS WELL THAT
ARE COMING DUE ! SO HOW WILL THEY DO ??
ALSO HOW ABOUT SOME OF THOSE INDEX FUNDS
AND INDEX MUTUAL FUNDS OUT THERE ???
Many funds also buy and sell their holdings at
a rapid pace. Currently this turnover occurs at
an average rate of 85% per year. This means that
at the end of every year the average mutual fund
only owns 15% of the same shares with which
it started the year. Additionally, fund managers,
believing that they can time the market, hold an
average of about 8% of their portfolios in cash reserves.
This practice has been a very expensive penalty during
the bull market of the 1990s. This holding of cash
reserves essentially explains the rest of the differential
between mutual funds and the market.
Also then there will come the PMI Manufacturing data, motor vehicle sales and jobs numbers—thus giving us a little bit of a gauge of where we are headed in 2015.
Also weak wage growth has dented some of the optimism created by strong job creation. Average wages fell 0.2 percent in December, the biggest decline in at least eight years.
Also the more... widely respected Employment Cost Index will show if labour costs increased any in the 12 months through December.
Fed officials are thinking interest rates could rise as soon as in June ? But it seems that futures contracts indicate investors expect a first move in September ?
" THEN WHAT WILL HAPPEN THERE BOO-YA JIMBO ? "
AND AS JIM MAD MONEY CRAMER SAYS...
Remember that for the most part, index funds do not
attempt to outperform their benchmark, but rather match
the benchmark's performance. Index funds generally have
a lower fee structure than actively managed funds, because
they're not as costly to manage.
Investors also were also looking for any reference to heightened concerns about global growth ?
THEY FEEL LIKE MAYBE THIS GUY NOW IS IN CHARGE HERE AND WANTS TO SLUG AROUND.
ALSO BY PERHAPS EMPLOYING MORE
Enhanced indexing strategies that may help in
offsetting the proportion of tracking error that
would come from expenses and transaction costs.
These enhancement strategies can be: lower cost,
issue selection, yield curve positioning, sector and
quality positioning and call exposure positioning.
THERE IS A MR. FREEZE FEEL OF REAL DEAL MOODY CAUTION IN THE COLD WIND BLOWN AIR RIGHT NOW
Also in the coming future the U.S. Federal Reserve begins a two-day review. No change in policy is expected, but market players will watch for any change in wording, such as "considerable time," that could hint at the timing of a rate hike. "
The big real deal question now becomes when will we see a rate rise? If corporates continue to feel the strain of the ever-strengthening USD on rate-rise speculation -which will lead to lower job creation and slower wage growth (which is already suffering) - will this stay the hand of the Fed?"
SO JUST DON'T WATCH & WAIT TOO LONG !
FOR YOU KNOW THAT GLOBALLY Right now there is plenty of nervousness about U.S. and global economies, so that means that many will flee to bonds from equities, and a bunch of hurry up flight-to-safety trades especially towards the end of the month. Still especially those Bulls will be putting money into assets that have done well this month.
THEN ENTER FEB.1 AND SUPER BOWL SUNDAY
The NFL is the most profitable pro sports league in the U.S.,raking in an estimated $1 billion in profits on $10.5 billion in revenue just last season.
Those massive profits are made possible in part by the billions of taxpayer dollars that local governments spend on teams, coupled with tax breaks worth hundreds of millions for the teams, the league, their sponsors and fans.
Twenty new NFL stadiums have opened since 1997 with the help of $4.7 billion in taxpayer funds.
Two more stadiums now under construction in Minneapolis and Atlanta are being built with $700 million in government funds.
Taxpayers paid for most of the University of Phoenix Stadium, which opened in 2006 and is home to this Sunday's Super Bowl -- to the tune of about $300 million.
BUT THEY CALL THEMSELVES NOT FOR PROFIT ! YEAH RIGHT !
The NFL's teams make over $10 billion in annual revenue, yet the NFL pays no taxes.
The NFL's not for profit status strikes critics as particularly unseemly, given its financial might. But it's categorized that way because the league's profits are distributed to each of the teams, rather than kept by the league itself. The league probably only saves about $10 million a year as a non-profit.
Teams also often get big breaks on their property taxes.
But there seems to be a shift going on from obvious brick and
mortar subsidy to more hidden, subtle forms of subsidy ?
Tax breaks for the NFL's biggest customer: Corporate America:
NFL teams sell between $1.5 billion to $2 billion worth of
luxury and high-end club seats a year, A single suite can
cost as much as $750,000 a season. Almost all suites and
club tickets are bought by corporate clients, which write
the cost off as a business entertainment expense.
Teams even get tax breaks on the money they actually do spend on construction. Most of that spending is financed with tax free municipal bonds, which were originally created by Congress to help fund roads and schools.
Even when corporate names are hung on city-owned stadiums, the teams keep all those profits, not the cities. And companies can deduct all of those expenditures as marketing expenses.
AND STILL LIKE NASTY $$$ DOGS THEIR LINING THEIR BIG DOLLAR FAT CITY & COUNTY ASSETS & RALLING AROUND AND FOR IT !
Even when corporate names are hung on city-owned stadiums, the teams keep all those profits, not the cities. And companies can deduct all of those expenditures as marketing expenses.
All these cities and states are lining their way up begging to give money to these very profitable teams. SHAME SHAME ON ALL OF YOUR HEADS !!!
INSTEAD WHY NOT... Spend it on really helping restore & rebuild and maintaining other things so badly in need of repairs, but they would rather $$$ rally this way.
SO ENTER NOW ALSO A... POST SUPER BOWL SUNDAY BULLISHNESS THAT WILL OCCUR RIGHT AFTER SUPER BOWL SUNDAY FINISHES UP, WHATEVER TEAM WINS OR LOOSES... YEP ALL THOSE BULLS SHOULD COME ROARING BACK IN A LATE DAY RALLY !
THESE GUYS WONT BE MONKING AROUND AT ALL OR WILL THEY ! IT WILL BE MONKEY SEE MONKEY DO BIG TIME ESPECIALLY ON THAT WHICH IS COMING MONKEY DUE !!!
TAKE AN ENTER FEB. WEEK MONKEY SMILE... WHY NOT IT'S POST SUPER BOWL PARTY TIME NOT REAL DEAL WHAT'S UP AND WHAT IS REALLY HAPPENING INSIDE YOURSELVES.
LET ALONE WHAT'S GOING ON FURTHER OUT THERE IN OTHERS OWN LA-LA LANDS !
THEN AFTER ALL THE HOOPLA AND U-FURIA EXIT AND FURTHER ITSELF ALONG THE FUTURES TRAIL ?
WHAT NEXT ??? PERHAPS A MORE CLOSED DOOR DATA REPORTING POLICIES ?
CHINA & THEIR TRADE DATA WILL THEN SHAKE UP A FEW IN THE COMING PROCESS OF NEXT MONTHS DATA REPORT RIGHT ! BEFORE THEY...
BEGINREADING THEMSELVES TO SAY GOODBYE TO THEIR 2014 YEAR OF THE HORSE & SAY, HELLO TO THEIR YEAR OF THE ( SHEEP-GOAT ) WITH SOME GOAT LIKE POLICY CHANGE OVERS FOR THEIR NEW YEAR !
THEN PERHAPS MORE LEVEL HEADS WILL STEP IN AND RE- ADJUST ALL THESE WAY OVER-BLOATED MARKETS IN AN UN SUPER BOWL LIKE MANNER NOW THAT IT WILL BE PLAYED AND DONE WITH.
REALLY DOUBT THAT FOR THE TIME BEING! UNTIL THE GREEK DEAL & CHINA DATA COMES OUT, THE GOOD OLD BULLS WILL STILL TRY & KEEP IT ABOVE 17, 000 ! ( WATCH EVEN AFTER THE COMING OUT OF THE LOWER HORRID HORSE YEAR TRADING DATA, THE CHINESE INVESTORS WILL STILL INVEST IN CHINA ITSELF BECAUSE THEY WILL FEEL THAT MORE STIMULUS IS IN STORE FOR 2015.
The China data will point to the coming challenging environments for any export growth in 2015, and that both monetary and fiscal policies must be possibly eased more aggressively to support growth in the coming months.
ALSO IT LOOKS LIKE WE ARE ALL ARE GOING TO SAY TO McDONALD'S SALES FIGURES... " WHAT HAPPENED THERE OLD RONALD MCDONALD " ?
IT'S NOT JUST IN CHINA EITHER FOR OL' RONALD !
ALSO REMEMBER IN THE DISTANCE AFTER THIS YEAR OF THE HORSE FINALLY ENDS AND THE ( GOAT-SHEEP ) FEB. 2015 ENTERS.
THEN THIS SHEEP GOAT YEAR WILL COME TO AN END REMEMBER, THEN THE NEXT YEAR AFTER THAT IN THE FUTURE IS THE 2016 COMING ELECTION YEAR OF THE MONKEY & SO WHO WILL BE REALLY MONKING AROUND BY THAT TIME AND PLACE ! MONKEY SEE MONKEY DO !
THEN THE REAL DEAL MONKING AROUND WILL SURELY BUILD AND BUILD FROM UP AND DOWN!
LIKE GLADIATOR ZERO AND THE GGG HAVE BEEN SAYING SINCE ( 1980 -1984 ) NOW...
HEY YOU ALL GOT YOUR SPORTS ARENAS AND THATS ALL GOOD FINE AND DANDY WITH US !
BUT WHERE THE F... HAS BEEN MY REAL DEAL BLOOD SPORT PASSIONSWORD ARENA !!!
I HAVE BEEN ASKING YOU ALL NOW FOR 35 YEARS AND NOTHING ! YOU ALL HAVE GOTTEN AND WILL CONTINUE TO GET IT ALL ! & WE CONTINUE TO RESEARCH INTO THEM...
BUT THEN WHERE IS OUR SACRED " BLOOD SPORT " PASSIONSWORD GLADIATOR ARENA ?
YOUR ALL AFRAID OF IT, NOW ARN'T YA NOW ! GIVEN A FEW BRAVE NOBLE SOULS BE DRIVEN FORTH !
SO IT'S REALLY... THE MARKETS WILL NOW TURN GLADIATORIAL & GETTING REAL DEAL WEIRDER... EHI CRAMER !
MAYBE YOUR GOING TO START PRESSING MORE OF THOSE GGG CRAMER BUTTONS !!!
AND THEY CALL YOU WEIRD, THEY ARE ALL MUCH MORE WEIRD IN THEIR OWN ASININE WEIRD WAYS THAN YOU OR I CAN EVER BE !
SO... You’ve got so many weird exogenous examples happening all around us here. Going up against the good old polar vortex last year and you’ve now really have to mix that into currency exchange this year that the numbers almost don’t count no matter what grand scenario you come up with ???
Thus it’s has been averaging out to be the slow-growing economy that they’ve been expecting.
THUS OF COURSE... THE DEEP MR. FREEZE WILL CONTINUE ESPECIALLY ON THE ASIAN MARKETS & SHARES BEGINNING NEXT MONTH.
ALSO KEEP A KEEN EYE ON THE
State Administration for Industry and Commerce (SAIC), for failing in many cases involving services infringed upon trademarks, that were either substandard or fake, they are banned or endangered public security.
They have let that abscess fester until it became a large danger ! So watch out for online fakes !
WHILE IN THE MEANTIME...
YES, MORE YOUNG MEN SHALL DIE
FIGHTING NOW, WHILE MORE CIVILIAN
WOMEN AND CHILDREN ALSO DIE TOO!
( The sad faces of the brutality and barbarism of warfare, fighting and bloodshed on Earth. )
YOUNG MEN & OLD MEN
TERRORIST & HORRORIST
EACH & EVERY ONE OF THEM !
THEY WILL CONTINUE BOMBING
BUTCHERING, KIDINAPPING, RAPING
OVER EACH OTHER & ONE ANOTHER
NOW AT A 2015 TICKED UP TUNE & TONE !
IT WILL BE FROM ONE FIRESTARTER
UNTO THE NEXT FIRESTARTER YEAR !
AS THE EVER GROWING CURRENTS OF
DEEP DISCONTENT BEGIN TO FLOW AND
PROTEST WILL GROW AND GOVERNMENTS
BEGIN TO FALL NOW AS ESPECIALLY THE
OLD AUTHORITARIAN LEADERS EITHER
FINALLY DIE OR ARE KILLED, JAILED OR
PROTESTED OUT OF OFFICE & CONTROL !
THEN THERE WILL BE SOME
STRANGE ELECTIONS COMING UP...
One will be the Greeks who are voting this coming Sunday
in an early general election crucial for the country's
financial future, with the radical left Syriza party of
Alexis Tsipras tipped as the favorite to win, although
possibly without a large enough majority to form a
government. We will then see ?
ALSO WATCH HUNGREY... AS THEY PLAY AS USUAL BOTH SIDES AGAINST THE MIDDLE PLAYING PUTIN AND THE SLAVS AGAINST MERKEL AND THE REST OF THE E.U. !
Viktor Orban (L) is now considered as one of Vladimir Putin's closest European allies (AFP Photo/Dmitry Kostyukov)
WAY TO GO SLAVO-VIKTOR... YOU & VLADO MAKE A GREAT TEAM !
TYPICAL HUNGARIANS, THEY HAVE BEEN PLAYING THIS SAME OLD SAME OLD HUNGARIAN RUN AROUND ROUTINE FOR BLOODY CENTURIES NOW !!!
ALSO...
WATCH FOR PLACES LIKE YEMEN THAT ARE
JUST BREWING RIGHT NOW WITH SOME
DEEP VOLCANIC UNDER-CURRENTS AND
FOR PROTEST AND VIOLENCE TO ERUPT !!
BUT IN OTHERS STAYING SOLID BEHIND
A TOTAL EGOTISTICAL KGB MADMAN
YES GOOD OLD EVIL VLADO FUCKIN !
HE IS STARTING MORE TROUBLE
AND WLL CONTINUE TO DO SO !
( A HERO ONLY IN HIS OWN
SLAVIC DEMENTED EVIL MIND ! )
THIS PRICK MUST BE STOPPED DOA !!! GLADIATOR ZERO SAYS HE SHOULD BE ANND WILL BE DOWN-GRADED TO JUNK !
SO HE MIGHT WANT TO JUST OPEN UP THESE RECENTLY MAILED OUT LETTERS! NOT ONLY WILL YOUR MOUTH AND YOUR MAIL BE DEEMED JUNK BUT PERHAPS ALSO OTHER CREDIT THINGS ALSO MIGHT COME JUNKING HIS WAY !
SO THUS MAYBE NOT SO OR JUST...
MAYBE THESE ARE THE BEGINNINGS OF SOMETHING WAY MORE ENTIRELY EARTH SHATTERING ! PERHAPS LIKE
EVER MORE VOLCANIC UNDERCURRENTS FLOWING AND BREWING STRONGER!
THEN BESIDES MORE WARS AND ECONOMIC
??? THERE IS GLOBAL WARMING CONCERNS! PLUS ALL OF THE OTHER FACTORY POLLUTION
AND OF COUSE ALL THE CONTINUING CONCERNS OVER THE LACK OF FRESH DRINKING WATER FOR US, LET ALONE THE WATER THAT WE ALL NEED FOR
IRRIGATION, ALL BIG CONCERNS AS WELL.
ALSO ALL THE PLASTICS IN ALL OUR OCEANS !
(TRULY A SAD PICTURE BELOW)
THEN PERHAPS AN INEXORABLE MOVEMENT SHLL ENGULF ALL THOSE IN AUTHORITY AND A NEW ORDER BE FINALLY CREATED. BUT...
FIRST THINGS FIRST... LIKE THAT NORTH KOREAN CHARACTER, THEN THE BIG ASS-HOLE-SAD IN SYRIA, AND OF COURSE OLD NASTY VLADO PUTIN IN RUSSIA CAUSING TROBLE NOT JUST IN THE UKRAINES, BUT IN OTHER SECTORS GLOBALLY, TYPICAL OLD NASTY SLIMY EVIL VLADO PUTIN. PLUS THERE ARE MANY MORE OUT THERE, EVEN RIGHT HERE IN THE GOOD OLD US OF A. !
LETS TALK USA AND WHATS COMING UP!
WE GREEN GLADIATORS HAVE BEEN SAYING FOR OVER A YEAR NOW THAT IN 2016...
THAT'S RIGHT THERE FOLKS...
THE BIGGER QUESTION IS FROM HERE ON OUT WILL GLDIATOR ZERO AND THE GGG CONTINUE TO LEAVE BLOGGER BLOG PREDICT POSTS OR NOT ???
BUT WATCH NOW AS BIG COMPNIES GET HIT UP LIKE CATERPILLAR, MICROSOFT, ETP, INTEL CORP, HEWLLET-PACKARD CO., DUPONT CO, P&G, ECT, AS THEY EITHER LOOSE IN THE MARKET WITH NOT MEETING THE QUARTER OR INVESTORS WILL WIPE OFF MILLIONS BECAUSE IN MICRO'S CASE FOR MANY OTHER THINGS ARE COMING UP HERE REAL SOON ENOUGH ALONG THE COMING EVENT "REAL DEAL" $$$ AND CENTS-SCENSE HORIZON !
THUS... As for Caterpillar it seems to be setting up for its biggest drop since August 2011. The world’s largest mining and construction equipment maker forecast lower-than-estimated earnings and revenue for 2015.
Crude’s slump of more than 40 percent in the past six months is the latest headwind for Caterpillar, which had already seen declining orders from the mining industry for its signature yellow machines.
PLUS HOW MUCH MORE ENERGY, FINANCIALS & MATERIALS CAN TRADERS GLUT THEIR WAY UP ON UNTIL THERE IS A SELL OFF AND THEY WILL FINALLY SKID INTO DEEPER TERRITORY & ALSO FOR HOW LONG WILL THEN THAT TREND LAST, IF IT DOES ?
Also remember when interest rates remain low they tend to make stocks more attractive in comparison with bonds. But we do see more jitters and waves of nervousness buffeting Good Old Wall Street these coming days !
SO 2015 HOLDS A LOT IN STORE & 2016 HOLDS EVEN MORE !
( SO WE THUS SHALL BUT SEE WHAT SHALL BE SEEN )
SO IT WILL BE SEEN IN THE COMING WEEKS IF GLADIATOR ZERO & THE GGG CONTINUE TO BLOGGER BLOG POST, OR HANG ON THROUGH FEB. AND AWAIT UNTIL THE USHERING IN OF THE CHINESE YEAR OF THE ( SHEEP - GOAT ) !

Within A Hope That Never Fails
And Thus The Dream Shall Come To Pass
In A Story-Book Tale That Reflects In Glass
(Gladiator Zero's Anthem)
THE GLADIATOR KING OF FOOLS
A true king never on his head surrounds
The crown for which the kingdom abounds
But places the crown upon his lap
Awaiting to place it upon every sap
Who might be slow but faith filled still
And who gives as honestly as the faith doth will
For in a good kingdom shall all wear the crown
From top to bottom up or down
And so a true king shall place it daily
Upon a new faith filled head so gaily
That each face in the kingdom shall smile
For each shall get their day in style
Thus forget not this piece of Wisdom in Thy head... For... The Boughs Must Stay Green and the Blood Must Remain RED!

"THAT'S ALL FOLKS" OR WILL THINGS AS STATED ABOVE...
REMEMBER THIS THOUGH...
The Arena is not a game. The Arena is not a product.
The Arena is not a secret. The Arena is a sacred public ritual
and a Munus (a sacred obligation to the dead, a funeral rite)
ARE THESE NOT THE TWO THINGS THAT
GLADIATOR ZERO HAS BEEN ASKING FOR
ON AND ON SINCE 1980 ! THEY CERTAINLY
AND SURELY ARE ! BEEN A LONG TIME NOW !
