Somebody has to teach the Dutchs that to win they have to hit the ball, not the opponent.

[Peter Weis]

I see this, too! I think it is not nice! That he deserved the red card.

[Patrice Terrier]

Oui, toutes ces victoires font du bien au moral, çà nous change de la crise.

[Jürgen Huhn]

Yes Patrice, all these victories are good for the morality...

But what's the reason that crisis changes us?
I don`t really understand, my english isn`t the best and my french
is the Hell...   

...

[Jürgen Huhn]

Ok, after a while the light is on..
I was a bit confused and asked myself on to wich Crisis do you think.

But thank`s for starting this Thread, it`s also  good for the morality to
live it and  nice to do a part here at the forum.
Also talking about other things as PB...
I wasn`t sadly much involved in Discussion here, because to busy the last time...

[José Roca]

 

Yes Patrice, all these victories are good for the morality...

It has nothing to do with morality, but with the mood.

[Jürgen Huhn]

Thank`s for your accurate translation, Jose!

In German i would say Gemütslage and this word included the Word Mut or mood.
That makes Sense,  related to German as well.

I`ve learned also new things about Paul the Octopus and his Family..
About the intelligence, how they are living and how to eat them on a delicious Way.
I will try to cook "Pulpo a Feira" and prefer a german Riesling.
it sounds and looks really good!

Thank you for the recipe!

Now we are going to close down the spanish banking system.
Hope besides the chamapagne you have some water left after all :-)).

And be sure your bak account still exists.

Of the 9 banks to close in next crisis are 8 from spain if i see it right. :-)

[José Roca]

 
You must be joking. If it has been a clear winner of the recent banks stress tests, it has been Spain. Now it is Germany, home to some of those rumors that damaged the Spanish debt (e.g. the dirty maneuvers of the Deutsche Bank and the false rumors of the Financial Times Deutschland), which is under scrutiny: Financial Times [UK] warns that German banks could have hidden data in the stress tests [specially its high exposure to the Greek sovereign debt] and prescribes the transparency that Spain has had with its financial sector.

Spain shines on stress test, Germany flunks

The refusal of some Landesbanken and German lenders to reveal exposure to EMU sovereign debt has raised suspicions that they have something to hide. Credit default swaps measuring bond risk jumped from 140 to 150 points for HSH Nordbank, with smaller rises for West LB (127), Norddeutssche LB (125) and Deutsche Postbank (121).

Spain was rewarded by the markets for the high quality of its tests, which cover 95 of its banks and include a 28pc fall from peak-to-trough for finished houses, and 61pc for development land.

Yields on 10-year Spanish bonds dropped 11 basis points to 4.24pc on Monday, outperforming the eurozone. The cost of bond insurance fell for Spanish Cajas. These savings banks are already being restructured. The US buy-out firm JC Flowers has agreed to inject €450m (£377m) into Banca Civica.
