Statement of Nobel Laureate Professor Muhammad Yunus on the Occasion of Supreme Court Verdict on May 5, 2011 Regarding His Removal from Grameen Bank. Professor Yunus voiced his concern after revelations surfaced surrounding violence against employee leaders of the Bank. Those interested may also want to read in the Bank's point-by-point refutation of the allegations brought up in the government's Review Committee report, as well as by the nation's government-aligned media.
You have already heard the verdict from the Supreme Court.
Why did I appear before the Court? Why did I want to contest the order of Bangladesh Bank? Why there is so much concern about this issue at home and abroad? There may be some confusion regarding these questions. Please allow me to share my feelings with you to remove this confusion. I went to the Court for a specific reason. Bangladesh Bank sent a letter to Grameen Bank, removing me from my post as Managing Director of Grameen Bank. The letter also mentioned that I held this position for the last eleven years illegally. Bangladesh Bank did this without giving me a chance to explain my position. I felt that this letter was not legally correct, and through this letter, not only was I been wronged, but so was Grameen Bank. Nine elected members of the Board of Directors of Grameen Bank felt the same way. That is why the nine members of the Board and I filed separate writs in the High Court. We wanted these wrongs to be corrected. Therefore, we had to seek justice through all avenues offered in the Bangladeshi judicial system. This is what we have done.
The fate of 40 million poor people connected to this
In the event that the Honorable Court stated in their final decision that the letter from Bangladesh Bank was issued without lawful authority, I could continue my work with Grameen Bank and make the transition to a capable management as smoothly as possible. But, if the Court verdict went against us, the Board may be forced to take steps to implement the content of the Bangladesh Bank letter. This was the only reason for me to take this matter to the Court. I had no option but to seek justice in this matter.
It is indeed a much wider and much more significant issue to save the future of Grameen Bank and also to protect the hopes and dreams of the over 8 million borrowers. These borrowers are also the owners of 96.5% of the Bank's shares. The Bank is connected with 40 million microcredit borrowers in Bangladesh, and its impact on all these people cannot be neglected. What happens to Grameen Bank influences the future of the millions of Bangladeshis who benefit from microcredit activities, as well as the future of the institution of microcredit itself. It is actually a great concern for me, and many others, that I properly fulfill my responsibility to safeguard their future before and after leaving the post of Managing Director of Grameen Bank.
Some have said that, instead of going to the court, it would have been more honorable for me to resign from my position as suggested by the Finance Minister. I do not think so. In that case, the end result would have been the same, so far as my exit is concerned. But I would have suffered from carrying the guilt of knowingly accepting an unexpected proposal and putting the borrowers and their families' futures at risk. I could not do that.
Some people felt that I intend to cling to the position of Managing Director of Grameen Bank. But, the nation knows that this position is not my life's goal. I was, and am, conscious of the fact that my future work will not be based on my holding on to this position, but rather, it would be working with the young generation, from other platforms to address the problem of poverty at home and abroad. I want to do that without jeopardizing the interests of Grameen Bank. This is the thought which prompted me to write the letter to the Honorable Finance Minister one year ago. I suggested two options to him for a transition that could take place without creating any waves within the Bank. I did not get any response to these proposals. I was, instead, told to quit. It is, therefore, unfair to me to suggest that I am holding on to the of position of managing director unjustly or to allege that I am not co-operating in the process of transition.
For the last few months, a section of the media devoted itself fiercely to campaign against me, Grameen Bank, and the concept of microcredit. Everyone has his own explanation why this is happening.
An unfriendly atmosphere is not helpful for a smooth change of leadership
The cause of my concerns, as well as those of the nation and the world, lies here. These concerns are more for Grameen Bank and the future of its millions of borrowers, than for me. For this reason, I have been reminding you repeatedly that undertaking the transition process of Grameen Bank's management in an unfriendly environment will only cause harm to the future of the Bank. I have always wanted to make sure that the transition takes place in a friendly, mutually supportive environment, so that the achievements of Grameen Bank may continue without interruption. There are many issues related to this. The big questions are: whether Grameen Bank can maintain its independent existence, and whether it can be successful in keeping itself away from political influences. What actually happens to financial institutions in our country if political influences start playing a role in these institutions is common knowledge. This experience will not inspire trust in the borrowers. We all know how important the role of trust is in the operation of Grameen Bank.

Tip 500g beef mince into a bowl with 1 small diced onion and 1 egg, then mix.
Divide the mixture into four. Lightly wet your hands. Carefully roll the mixture into balls, each about the size of a tennis ball.
Set in the palm of your hand and gently squeeze down to flatten into patties about 3cm thick. Make sure all the burgers are the same thickness so that they will cook evenly.
Put on a plate, cover with cling film and leave in the fridge to firm up for at least 30 mins.
Heat the barbecue to medium hot (there will be white ash over the red hot coals – about 40 mins after lighting). Lightly brush 1 side of each burger with vegetable oil.
Place the burgers, oil-side down, on the barbecue. Cook for 5 mins until the meat is lightly charred. Don't move them around or they may stick.
Oil the other side, then turn over using tongs. Don't press down on the meat, as that will squeeze out the juices.
Cook for 5 mins more for medium. If you like your burgers pink in the middle, cook 1 min less each side. For well done, cook 1 min more.
Take the burgers off the barbecue. Leave to rest on a plate so that all the juices can settle inside.
Slice 4 burger buns in half. Place, cut-side down, on the barbecue rack and toast for 1 min until they are lightly charred. Place a burger inside each bun, then top with your choice of accompaniment.

Hot on the heels of Microsoft's X10 event, Nintendo held its own Media Summit in San Francisco. Yesterday's event was bursting with just as many big reveals as Microsoft's, and there are plenty of reasons for fans to get excited.
With a new DS refresh and a slew of new games for both the Wii and DSi consoles, 2010 should continue the company's success. Here is what to expect in the first half of 2010. We'll be hearing about the second half at E3.
The DSi XL
We already knew that the DSi XL was coming, but now we know when and for how much. Nintendo announced that the system will arrive in North American stores on March 28 and will carry a MSRP of $189.99. Aside from having a larger screen size, the console will include a larger stylus.
Gamers will be able to purchase the system in either burgundy or bronze color schemes. More exciting, though, is that the DSi XL will come with pre-installed copies of Brain Age Express: Arts & Letters, and Brain Age: Math and Photo Clock, the Nintendo DSi Browser and Flipnote Studio. Nintendo revealed two games that are set to be launched at retail during the same time: America's Test Kitchen: Let's Get Cooking and WarioWare: D.I.Y
DSi and DSi XL releases
Square-Enix is continuing its love affair with Nintendo. Dragon Quest IX: Sentinels of the Starry Skies will launch at an unspecified date this summer. The title's story follows the adventures of an ex-angel who falls to earth and becomes human. The game is notorious for its difficulty and novel for its cooperative multiplayer design, though it's clearly well-loved overseas (having sold over 4.15 million copies in Japan). Hopefully nothing gets lost in translation when it comes out here in America.
Picross 3D is due out on May 3. If you haven't heard of Picross 3D, players have to chip away parts of a rectangular prism in order to construct three dimensional images. The gameplay is reminiscent of a 3D version of Minesweeper, because players have to work at not chipping away parts of the prism that are part of the image itself. The game is set to start out with more than 350 puzzles at its launch and will have more available for download in the future.
Majesco is getting ready to launch Ghostwire: Link to the Paranormal for the DSi this October. The game lets players assume the role of ghost hunters like those seen on popular reality TV shows. Early footage of the game shows that it utilizes the console's built-in camera to represent real-world environments and superimposes images of ghosts onto the DSi's screens. Unfortunately, not too much information about the title has been revealed yet, but the information currently available makes it seem like it's a handheld alternate reality game with elements of Fatal Frame thrown in.
Finally, Nintendo seems to be testing out the idea of adapting DS consoles into e-readers, thanks to the upcoming 100 Classic Books. The software will come out on June 14 and will contain a hundred classic pieces of literature by authors like Shakespeare, Twain, and Austen. You'll be able to adjust text size, place digital bookmarks so you don't lose your place, and eventually download new books over the Nintendo WiFi Connection. While the last piece of information is certainly interesting to hear about, there's no word about whether or not it will cost extra to get more books.
Big stuff in store for the Wii
There were also some major announcements about games coming out for the Wii. Of particular note, two of Nintendo's biggest franchises will have new games coming out this summer. On top of that, the company revealed some details about other major releases for the console.
We loved Super Mario Galaxy to bits, so we were thrilled to hear Nintendo announce the sequel's official release date. The Wii title will arrive on May 23, and is set to include the gravity-defying gameplay of the first game, new galaxies, occasional team-ups with Yoshi, and new items like a drill that will let Mario tunnel through solid rock.
Metroid fans have surely been salivating heavily ever since Nintendo revealed at E3 that it was joining forces with Team Ninja to create a new entry for the series. Metroid: The Other M's release date has been announced for June 27 in North America. Specific details about the game are still somewhat scarce, but we do know that it takes place between Super Metroid and Metroid Fusion (and will tell "a cinematic, never-before-told story of bounty hunter Samus Aran's past"); it will also feature a mix of 2D and 3D play in third- and first-person perspectives, respectively.
Capcom's Monster Hunter series is finally coming to the Wii here in North America, with Monster Hunter Tri on April 20. The game sounds ambitious: billed as an epic action game in which players protect a town from monster attacks after it's been demolished by an earthquake, it will also include free online play for anyone with a broadband connection. As opposed to previous entries in the franchise, the upcoming adventure will feature underwater environments to explore and fight monsters in. On top of all this, online text and voice chat will be available, though the latter requires the Wii Speak microphone. Finally, a limited quantity of the game will be sold with the Black Classic Controller Pro (though the Monster Hunter Tri will also be sold without the controller).
Ubisoft also announced that Prince of Persia: The Forgotten Sands will be released for both the Wii and DS platforms on May 18. While the game is apparently going to include the action and puzzle-solving gameplay that the series has become famous for, the Wii version of the game will be the first Prince of Persia title to include two-player cooperative play. The Wii version will also include the SNES version of the original Prince of Persia, which was designed by Jordan Mechner (although this was available in the original Xbox's Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time as a hidden item).
The first collaboration between Disney Interactive and its recently acquired development studio, Wideload Games, was also unveiled. Disney Guilty Party is set to come out during the second half of the year; it will feature a number of party-oriented minigames with a mystery motif.
Though the original Sin and Punishment was never released for North American N64 systems, it did finally come out in 2007 for the Virtual Console. Sin & Punishment 2 is already out in Japan, but players in the US and Canada should be happy to learn that they now have a release date to look forward to, albeit with a new name. The game is coming to the Wii in North America on June 7. Like its predecessor, Sin & Punishment: Star Successor will be a two-player rail shooter and will feature international online leader boards. Based on the high standards established by the original game, this new Sin & Punishment has a lot to live up to.
Upcoming downloadable revelations
There were also a ton of new titles announced for both Nintendo's WiiWare and DSiWare services. While release dates were unveiled, the costs for many of these games have yet to be revealed.
The following major announcements were made for WiiWare:
- Mega Man 10 will launch on March 1, and will continue the tradition of crazy Mega Man action in the original 8-bit style.
- March 8 will see the release of Max & the Magic Marker. The game turns the Wii Remote into a magic marker that is used to create drawings that will help Max throughout the game's levels. The trailer on the game's website makes gameplay seem like a great combination of Drawn to Life and Crayon Physics.
- Cave Story is finally coming to the Wii, only five-and-a-half years after it was released as freeware for the PC. The Wii version of the game—due out on March 22—will feature all new artwork and enhanced music.
- Finally, WarioWare: D.I.Y. Showcase will launch at the same time as WarioWare: D.I.Y. does for the DS. The WiiWare title will be a standalone title and will feature cross-platform compatibility with its associated DS game: players using both games will be able to transfer content between the systems using a wireless connection.
Meanwhile, DSiWare received the following announcements, though no specific release dates or prices were specified:
- Photo Dojo is primed to launch sometime this spring. The idea behind this title is that players have to pose for a series of photos and create accompanying sound effects. After doing this, you become the star of a side-scrolling fighting game; up to eight characters can be created at a time, and the game features both a single-player mode and a head-to-head battle system.
- Metal Torrent is a shooter in the vein of Gradius, but with a unique twist: players convert enemy bullets into cubes that are then collected for additional points and energy bars necessary to employ special attacks. Nintendo's announced release date for this title is sometime this spring.
- Also launching this spring, X-Scape is a 3D tank exploration game that will have players journeying across more than twenty planets. There's the standard travel through 3D environments, but we're way more excited about the promised battles against giant robots.

The wailing of Risca
Suddenly are my tents spoiled, and my curtains in a moment.
Suggested Further Reading: Luke 12:35-48
Live while you live; while it is called today, work, for the night cometh wherein no man can work. And let us learn never to do anything which we would not wish to be found doing if we were to die. We are sometimes asked by young people whether they may go to the theatre, whether they may dance, or whether they may do this or that. You may do anything which you would not be ashamed to be doing when Christ shall come. You may do anything which you would not blush to be found doing if the hand of death should smite you; but if you would dread to die in any spot, go not there; if you would not wish to enter the presence of your God with such-and-such a word upon your lip, utter not that word; or if there would be a thought that would be uncongenial to the judgment-day, seek not to think that thought. So act that you may feel you can take your shroud with you wherever you go. Happy is he that dies in his pulpit. Blessed is the man that dies in his daily business, for he is found with his loins girt about him serving his Master; but, unhappy must he be to whom death comes as an intruder, and finds him engaged in that which he will blush to have ever touched, when God shall appear in judgment. Power supreme; thou everlasting king; permit not death to intrude upon an ill-spent hour, but find me rapt in meditation high; singing my great Creator; proclaiming the love of Jesus, or lifting up my heart in prayer for myself and my fellow-sinners.
For meditation: Life contains a final moment when it will be impossible to explain away or cover up something inappropriate.
note: This sermon was occasioned by a mine explosion, in which some two hundred or so miners were killed, at Risca, near Newport in South Wales. Spurgeon had often gone to the Vale of Risca to rest and preach.
Sermon no. 349 10 December (Preached 9 December 1860)

Conservatives accuse PBS of conspiratorially covering up huge Obama "gaffe" about Lincoln, even though there was no gaffe, no conspiracy, and no cover-up
Practically the entire right wing blogosphere went into vapor-lock this morning, shrieking in unison at the evil librul PBS for "editing" the transcript of the President's joint session speech on jobs, to cover up his "gaffe" that Abraham Lincoln was a founder of the Republican Party.
Oh, wait...
So are they right? Did PBS edit the transcript?
Gasp! Yes, they did! Full Text: Obama Vows to Spur Job Creation, 'Jolt' Economy in Speech to Congress.
Why in the world would they do something like this? Why, I ask you?
EDITOR'S NOTE: The original transcript provided on this page, as was noted, reflected the president's remarks as prepared for delivery and released by the White House. This transcript has been updated to reflect the remarks as delivered and released by the White House.
If PBS wanted to "cover up" the gaffe, they did a lousy job when they posted the full video of the speech, including the Lincoln remark at the 27:35 mark. A quick review of the President's "Prepared Remarks" versus his "Remarks As Delivered," both of which we posted here at Mediaite, reveals that PBS didn't "alter" anything, they simply ran the prepared remarks, and never added the transcript when it was released several hours later...
So, again, big deal. There's hardly a "liberal media" pro-Obama conspiracy going on here. Conservatives are just desperate to find one.

text: Have you ever wondered why ceramics are hard and brittle while metals tend to be ductile? Why some materials conduct heat or electricity while others are insulators? Why adding just a small amount of carbon to iron results in an alloy that is so much stronger than the base metal? In this course, you will learn how a material's properties are determined by the microstructure of the material, which is in turn determined by composition and the processing that the material has undergone.

While it is true that i practice dzogchen, and that our mutual teacher uses the concept of integration in particular ways, please do not assume that because i have used this word here, i am speaking of dzogchen.MalaBeads wrote:Because understanding is not the whole of practice, Malcolm. Because we have body, speech and mind. Because if the three are not integrated, then there is no realization of what is being taught.Malcolm wrote:why is this so hard to understand?
All the Yanas use the activity of integration in their particular method. If practitioners do not integrate what they are practicing, then the practice is not successful. Therefore those following the path of renunciation, integrate renouncing into every aspect of their body, speech, and mind. Those following the path of transformation, integrate (or transform) every aspect of their body, speech, and mind. Those practicing dzogchen, integrate the nature of mind into every aspect of their body, speech and mind. What differs is not integration but what is integrated.
So give me some credit here, Malcolm. I understand very well what is being discussed here and for the moment at least, we disagree. You are maintaining that the core method of Mahayana is the renunciation of sense objects while i am saying that is abandoning attachment to those objects.
Historically, the various Yanas have been classified as Hinayana, Mahayana and Vajrayana. But we also hear about the Path of Renunciation, the Path of Transformation and the Path of Dzogchen. This is a little different. It categorizes Dzogchen as its own path (which i happen to agree with). I think much of what néeds to happen in this discussion is the working out of what we in the west see as the activities of the various Yanas.
Desire is at the core of the Buddhas teachings. Shakymuni Buddha understood desire to be the primary activity that kept beings suffering. It followed, over time, that various methods were developed, depending upon the circumstance of the time, to address this issue of living. So we have the method of renunciation as one way. We also have transformative methods, where intention is seen to be primary regardless of the activity. And we have specific dzogchen methods.
Because Buddhism is a rather new activity for Westerners we need to learn to be clear about what we are talking about to each other. We may all speak the same language here at Dharma Wheel (English) but it is clear to me that we do not speak the same language at all.

Summer Lovin
Rush Ranch – Eastern Oregon
Wx: 80F, Clear
Listening To: Hymns from the 49th Parallel, K.D. Lang
Scientifically I wonder if there is a limit to the number of shades possible within a certain color? Green for example. The valley floor below us has a multi-colored pattern of green splashed across its floor, from bright chartreuse to lovely and rich emerald green. The valley is 35 miles long, and 15 miles wide. Its name, "Grande Ronde", means "Great Circle".
Eastern Oregon and the surrounding area was a haven for many Native American tribes. Many of these tribes, including the Nez Perce, Cayuse, Umatilla, Walla Walla, and Shoshone, would spend their summers in the bountiful Grande Ronde Valley. Here they would forage, hunt, fish, and bathe in hot springs. Tribes that may have been hostile toward each other would live together harmoniously in the "Valley of Peace"
Before I relocated to Eastern Oregon, I never really gave a thought to the work of farmers. I never thought about them rising before dawn to open irrigation or riding their harvester long after the sun has gone down. I had an idea that it was long and arduous work, but I didn't really have a good knowledge or appreciation of getting my food from their field to my table. And now? I don't know how they do it. Amazingly long hours for little payback. Constant care of their soil, even in winter. The planning and rotating of crops. Fighting crop diseases and persistent pests, and the unpredictable weather. Gads, I have such respect for these men and women that choose to be the providers to the world. Here, local farmers cultivate over 97,000 acres of wheat, peppermint, Kentucky bluegrass, potatoes, sugar beets, and other crops. Estimated gross sales for these crops exceed $30 million a year. Not to mention the cattlemen that choose to raise livestock. I would not make it one day in their shoes. Not one day. I spent my 30+ year career in an office where I would grumble to myself if I had to put on a sweater because the temperature was too cool in the winter time. Grumble! Ashamed of that, I am. Who AM I? What do I bring to this world? What do I leave for this world? Am I making a difference? People let's work diligently and intelligently at this Kindness thing. Let's try and make a difference – even in the most minuscule way if need be – to change someone's day for the better. Just one person – every day. We can do this.
The theme for this month's blog hop is "Summer Lovin", and the assigned palette was quite bright. The other designer's contributions can be found here, on the Pixel Scrapper website. Mine are below and are free for commercial use. Remember, all I ask in return is that you take the time to perform an act of kindness for someone. I hope that you can find something that you can use.

The ideology behind the Butcher
Assad's Baathist fascist, racist regime is backed by the supremacist for 'Greater Syria,' the infamous SSNP. The latest crackdown has claimed over 10,000 people, scores were tortured to death, especially children.
Straight from the horse's mouth about Arabism and Islamism:
President al-Assad meets Levant Scholars\' Union delegation …
Last Update: 11-04-2012 11:59PM
Syrian Radio & TV Online
As for extremism, the President said that there is nothing called extremism in Islam, adding "Islam is extremist in good and amity and in regards to organizing societies, promoting and developing them."
On Islam and Arabism, President al-Assad went on to say that a lot of Arab Muslims have separated Arabism form Islam while the non-Arab Muslim is still linking the two notions.. wondering how we separate the Arabism of the Prophet Mohammad from Islam, and how we separate the holy Quran from Arabism and its Arab and Islamic context while the Prophet had boasted of his Arabism and belonging to Quraish.
