Every war needs a casus belli, a latin expression meaning the justification for declarations of war; casus means "incident" or "case" while belli means bellic ("of war"). A casus belli might be something genuine and reasonable: a threat or an attack on an ally for example. However, a casus belli might also be an excuse created in the absense of a genuine reason: one country has something another wants or one country has some unfinished business left over from a previous war. Many of these excuses have become famous for their flimsiness. The War of Austrian Succession was started over the removal of an English Captain's ear by an overexcited Spanish customs officer. The city states of Modena and Bologna fought over a wooden bucket. The Franco-Prussian War was started over the hyped up insults towards the French ambassador contained in the Ems Dispatch. The Pastry War between France and Mexico, as well as the Chaco War between Paraguay and Bolivia, both fall into this category of wars started on the basis of a particularly tenuous casus belli.
The origins of the Pastry War of 1838-39 lie in the chaotic civil disorder that plagued the early years of the Mexican Republic, which gained independance from Spain in 1821. In 1828, the Mexican President Manuel Gomez Pedraza ejected the governor of the state of Mexico, Lorenzo de Zavala, from his office. Zavala promptly gained the support of General Antonio Lopez de Santa Anna (of Alamo fame) and rallied most of the garrison in Mexico City to his cause. After four days of fighting Zavala won, reinstated himself and installed a new president, Vicente Guerrero. The fighting damaged a lot of foreign property in the city and the subsequent riots led to further widespread destruction and looting. Though foreigners were unable to obtain compensation, Zavala's return to power eventually stabilised the domestic situation.
Ten years later, in 1838, a French pastry chef named Remontel suddenly remembered that his shop in the Tacubaya district of Mexico City had been looted by Mexican soldiers during the chaos and demanded compensation from the Mexican government. His claim was ignored so Remontel then appealed to the king of France, Louis Philippe. It just so happened that Mexico had defaulted on millions of dollars worth of loans from France, so it isn't difficult to see a connection between this default and the unfolding events. Though France had remained inactive in 1828, she now demanded 600,000 pesos in compensation for her citizen, a staggering sum considering that at the time the average wage in Mexico City was one peso a day. France then sent an ultimatum, threatening to blockade the country and seize its possessions if Remontel wasn't paid.
When the Mexican president, Anastasio Bustamante, refused to pay, France kept good on her promise and sent a fleet under Captain François Bazoche to blockade Mexico's Atlantic coast, bombard the fortress of San Juan de Ulua, and capture the major port city of Veracruz, where the French also seized most of the Mexican fleet. Mexico responded by declaring war and recalled the retired General Santa Anna to the conflict (the general had previously been disgraced by his defeat during the Texas Revolution and used his service in the Pastry War to re-enter Mexican politics as a hero). Fighting in and around Veracruz continued until the British intervened politically, brokering a peace. On 9 March 1839, France received a 600,000 dollar indemnity and both nations granted the other favoured trading status. Though France also restored the installations it had seized or destroyed, she managed to keep the Mexican fleet.
The Chaco War of 1932-35 opposed Paraguay and Bolivia, two of South America's poorest countries, in the bloodiest military conflict on that continent in the 20th century. By the late 1920s tensions were increasing between the two nations over an area of land between them known as the Gran Chaco, which, though thinly populated and arid, was thought to be rich in oil. Paraguay had lost almost half its territory to Brazil and Argentina in the War of the Triple Alliance, and wanted the Chaco simply so as to regain some status. Bolivia had lost its only ocean access (to the Pacific) in the War of the Pacific with Chile, and wanted the Chaco for access to the Atlantic via the Paraguay River, which ran through the region. Both countries were desperate and not prepared to concede without a fight.
In 1928 Paraguay brought the tension to a head by issuing a 1.50 peso stamp of the country with the Chaco included and labelled "Chaco Paraguayo". This was followed by a bolder, more provocative stamp featuring the Chaco region alone, again labelled Chaco Paraguayo. The Bolivian postal service responded, in 1931, with their own 25 centavos stamp, showing Bolivia with the Chaco included and labelled "Chaco Boliviano". Bolivia then mounted a full military assault on a Paraguayan garrison, prompting Paraguay to declare war.
Bolivia's population was three times larger than that of Paraguay. Bolivia also had lucrative mining income and a larger, better-equipped army. However, Bolivia never had more than two thirds of its army in the Chaco at any one time. In addition, landlocked Bolivia faced significant difficulty importing military equipment because of an international arms embargo imposed by the League of Nations. On the other hand, the Paraguayan military received supplies and intelligence from Argentina. The Paraguay's army also relied on guerrilla tactics that were highly effective against the more conventional Bolivian strategy, and its troops could communicate in the local Guarani language, incomprehensible to the average Bolivian soldier. Lastly, Paraguayan troops could easily be brought to the region by the Paraguay River, while Bolivian troops had to march in from 800 kilometers away.
The fighting was intense, with both sides deploying tanks and aircraft, a first in the Western hemishpere. By 1934 both Paraguay and Bolivia were on the verge of bankrupcy. On 27 November a group of Bolivian generals launched a coup d'etat which replaced the president. This political change led to a ceasefire being declared in June of 1935. A truce was finally signed in 1938, though a final treaty clearly marking the border would have to wait until 2009. Paraguay was ceded three quarters of the Chaco (oil was indeed found there in 2012) while Bolivia received its desired peice of river frontage. Paraguay celebrated the victory appropriately, by issuing a stamp.

Could somebody suggest a definition of pseudoscience? Because, for example, it should not be difficult to explain why homeopathy is a pseudoscience. Just a few basic facts, but they take time. And this approach is possible only when you know these basic facts. But all pseudosciences must have some things in common ….

Not significantly helpful? Inquire from them concerning the kinds of residence repair that require permits and share with them your individual plans in bettering your property. Since not all remodeling initiatives are amenable or underneath stringent compliance to getting the building or building consent you need, determine the completely different categories of residence repair.\n\nIf the patron rejects either the binding arbitration clause or the jury trial waiver clause, or rejects both clauses, it shall be considered as a counter provide to proceed with the proposed contract or agreement without the clause or clauses rejected.\n\nIllinois legislation requires that persons selling residence repair and improvement companies provide their prospects with notice of any change to their business title or handle that comes about prior to the agreed dates for beginning or completing the work.\n\n1. If some sort of accident occurred on the property that brought on the harm, verify along with your insurance company to see if your own home insurance will cover it. If that's the case, that is money that you just wouldn't have to spend out of your pocket.\n\n(3) Contractors who fail to supply prospects references when requested. If you're taking out a loan to finance the work, do not sign the contract before your lender approves the loan. (4) Bear in mind, you could have 3 business days from the time you sign your contract to cancel any contract if the sale is made at your own home.\n\n-The electrician gets injured while working on your own home. My advice is that you just NEVER hire a repairman or repair company except they hand you a duplicate of their insurance policy declaration sheet before they begin work. People who get injured usually file lawsuits in opposition to the folks they suppose brought on the harm.\n\nGenerally, an outdated wall paper can pose further downside, at such instances you would want to use the steamers, scrapers, and elbow grease all together. You will need to recognize the difference between residence repairs and maintenance. Residence repairs are just that: things that must be mounted.

Doctors Complete 700 mile Climate and Disability Walk from Canada to DC
Roads found inaccessible and unsafe; Further work to target interviewing persons with disabilities regarding their experiences in extreme weather
WASHINGTON, DISTRICT OF COLUMBIA , UNITED STATES, September 19, 2019 /EINPresswire.com/ -- Drs. Marcalee and Craig Alexander have completed a 700 mile walk to the United States Capitol from Campobello Island in New Brunswick, Canada to highlight the need for better accessibility for walking and wheeling on our roads and to find persons with disabilities to tell their stories about extreme weather, climate change and disability. With the growing climate crisis, both doctors left their positions in rehabilitation to focus on the issues of accessibility, feasibility of walking in the US and how disasters and climate change have and will impact persons with disabilities. Along the route, they found not only are our roads inaccessible but they did not see one person in a wheelchair going from town to town on the route.
Marcalee Alexander notes, "To live in the US and not in a city you need to have a car. This leads to discrimination against the poor. Moreover, if you want to walk from town to town, it is generally unsafe. Without sidewalks and often with no shoulders, our roads are difficult for able-bodied people to use, and are impossible for people in wheelchairs to use. Additionally with temperature extremes, people are more likely to remain indoors. We need to address the walk-ability of our roads along with the only war we need, a war against climate change, to sustain everyone's quality of life and health."
Along the way, Marcalee Alexander worked with city officials and community groups to hold climate justice walks for persons with disabilities in New York City and Philadelphia and spoke at 7 medical schools about the issue. "Unfortunately, health care professionals are not adequately informing people with disabilities about how to prepare for extreme weather events, and cities are inadequately equipped as to how to help people with disabilities in weather disasters such as Dorian. With the increased frequency and strength of extreme weather events and the climate crisis, this is a human justice issue that requires immediate attention."
As a culmination to their walk, Drs. Alexander are working to launch "Day for Tomorrow" on 9/22/19. Otherwise explained as "People Day", the title was coined because we cannot accurately predict tomorrow's weather as we did 30 years ago. People with disabilities are already impacted around the world by climate change and we need to focus on the impact of climate crisis on the most vulnerable people such as those with disabilities and those on the front line, and not just the earth. Persons with disabilities and the elderly are especially vulnerable in extreme temperatures. Right now, people are relatively imprisoned indoors due to the weather. Moreover, those with disabilities need special attention during hurricanes and anticipated flooding, being unable to go to shelters with wheelchairs or personal care assistants. Inadequate accommodations are also available for the elderly, persons with head injuries and autism who cannot tolerate large open areas with many people.
On September 22 between 1-4, Marcalee and Craig Alexander will be on the National Mall providing information about Day for Tomorrow. In addition, there will be gatherings for Day for Tomorrow in places such as Moshi, Tanzania, Chapel Hill, North Carolina and New Delhi, India. Around the earth, on Day for Tomorrow people are encouraged to knock on their neighbor's doors so they know if they have any needs that are unique in a weather disaster and to engage in some type of "green" day.
Marcalee Alexander plans to further the initiative by directly visiting areas previously affected by weather disasters and cities vulnerable to flooding and interviewing persons with disabilities about their experiences and concerns. She is soliciting persons with disabilities who would like to tell their stories to contact her. Moreover, she is planning to publish the faces of climate change, focusing on persons with disabilities and their lived experiences.
"The recent attention given to the climate crisis is wonderful. The issue is we need action now by all facets of humanity. As climate change worsens, we will all be older, possibly disabled ourselves and more vulnerable. The climate emergency is everyone's problem and a human justice issue that we need to address now. Join us by taking action on the Day for Tomorrow."
Marcalee Alexander is also working to start a nonprofit organization, Telerehabilitation International that will focus on educating people about quality of life issues, especially those related to climate change and disability. She also sees telemedicine as a green solution to dealing with disasters and the organization will work to start a network of rehabilitation physicians that are willing to volunteer to provided physician to physician consults for persons with disabilities in disaster areas.

New Film Release Bypasses Theaters and Goes Straight to College Campuses
by Audra Jennings Monday, August 16, 2010
Essentially, this is a research method used in anthropology and sociology to describe the nature of a people. It places the focus not on what we think, feel, and do but on others attitudes, beliefs, and actions, explains Bill Oechsler, EGMs president.
EGM hired Chay McQueen, LLC to conduct the study. It found that a few basic core values predict life satisfaction for EGMs primary audience: autonomy, connectedness, and purposefulness. Basically, this means that 18 to 25-year-olds truly value three things: making up their own minds about what to believe; being part of a community that shares their values; and living lives that matter.
But there are some challenges. This age group is notoriously distracted and on an hourly basis is flooded with more information than their parents faced in a month. They are exposed to a bewildering barrage of opportunities and choices. Though they are anxious to engage in important causes, they are media-savvy and can smell propaganda a mile off.
Oechsler continues, The research showed that millennials are connected to an experience. It convinced us that our goal should not be to create communities and movements but to create films that are welcomed into existing communities and movements. Thats why we decided to bring the film experience into the community to which they are connected. After that, the choice of the college campus as the primary venue to screen EGMs films was obvious. By doing so we allow every student group to become a theater.
The college is the perfect environment to screen the type of movies EGM producesfilms that address the hardest topics creatively and objectively. On university campuses there is a commitment (even an expectation) to asking hard questions, explains Cary McQueen Morrow, director for EGMs grassroots efforts. It is the community where our target audience is making crucial choices and wrestling with complex issues. And, they are in a context that recognizes the power of ideas and desire for action.
Morrow is heading up US screening efforts for EGMs most recent film, Little Town of Bethlehem, on college campuses. This documentary addresses the Palestinian/Israeli conflict from a fresh perspectivethat of the nonviolence movement. We are simply bringing our films into a context where dialogue already exists, Morrow adds. We want to open doors for constructive conversation and create openness to other points of view. And while our films dont tell the audience what to do, we want to encourage them to live out their beliefs.
The biggest challenge is to create an experience that is big enough and compelling enough to attract and connect with the students. That is where extensive communication and promotion is key. From committed faculty and students, to extensive online and offline screening materials, as well as nearby campuses collaborating with the screenings, the strategy is to create a buzz that cannot be ignored.
Nine select campuses (from Boston to Berkeley) will be hosting launch screenings of Little Town of Bethlehem. Faculty experts will join the films three protagonists (a Palestinian Muslim, an Israeli Jew, and a Palestinian Christian) as well as its director Jim Hanon and producer Mart Green in discussions around the nonviolence movement. Beyond that, more than 100 colleges and universities in the US as well as the EU have committed to campus screenings beginning in late September.
After the screening, dialogue and engagement will be encouraged and facilitated at every venue. Oechsler states, It is the work of the film to bring people together and reward their search for meaning and insight, but after that the audience becomes part of the story. On the Little Town of Bethlehem website (www://littletownofbethlehem.org), there will be links to organizations that are making a difference. Students will be able to blog their questions, ideas, and responses to the issues raised by the story they have just witnessed. And they can experience for themselves the difference they can make when they live what they believe, he concludes.
The launch window is set for September 21, World Peace Day, and ends on October 2, Gandhis birthday, the International Day of Non-Violence.

Local Woman is Assaulted
<bt>Fairfax County police are looking for the person who assaulted a 46-year-old Fairfax woman Monday, around 8:15 p.m., as she walked toward her house in the 12000 block of Fairfield House Drive, near the Fairfax Towne Center.
Police say a man approached her from behind and groped her, but fled when she screamed. She was not injured. The suspect is described as a dark-skinned, possibly Middle Eastern or Hispanic man, in his 20s. He's about 5 feet 4 inches to 5 feet 7 inches tall and weighs between 130-160 pounds. He wore a red shirt, blue jeans and a blue jacket.
Police believe this incident is similar to other cases that have occurred in the same general area of the county on Aug. 24 and 27 and on Sept. 10. They've released a composite sketch of the suspect and ask anyone who recognizes this person or has any information about any of the assaults to call Crime Solvers at 1-866-411-TIPS (8477) or police at 703-691-2131.

There is a new wave of mattress companies that have opened up to sell directly to consumers, bypassing traditional mattress outlets. This new style of mattress can vary a lot in terms of materials, layers, and frankly in quality. That is why reviews of these brands are so important. Amore is one such brand. In this post, we will go over Amore and discuss how their mattresses are made and what sets them apart from the crowd.
There are different possible primary materials for mattresses. Amore uses memory foam. Like other mattresses, the Amore is composed of layers. The top layer is a comfort layer that is two inches thick. The top inch is graphite and the bottom inch is wool. Next comes the poly foam. It is memory foam infused with graphite. This is in contrast to the latex foam that some mattresses have because it has a faster response and a longer memory. After that comes another four inch layer. This one is the primary support layer. It is composed of wrapped coils that provide upwards support and assist with better air flow for cooling. On the bottom of the mattress, the last layer is 2 inches thick. It is a high-density foam that delivers final support and shaping for the rest of the materials above it. It also has edge support to make it easier to get into and get out of bed. As an option, Amore offers a special add-on to the top layer in the form of a copper ion and bamboo fabric that provides a little more depth and has therapeutic properties.
Overall, the Amore is quite a comfortable mattress. When it comes to memory foam, a significant part of the comfort level comes down to weight. The more the sleeper weighs, the more they sink into the foam, so they are more likely to come closer to the springs. Some people find this uncomfortable. Another aspect of comfort is cooling. Here, the Amore does very well. The cells of the memory foam are open, allowing air to pass through. The wool also contributes to cooling, as does the copper layer if you choose that optional add-on.
Memory foam as a reputation of giving sleepers a sinking feeling or a "quicksand" feel. This can be an odd feeling for those who are not used to it and some users find it uncomfortable. While Amore does use memory foam, the slightly stiffer foam layer means that it does not feel as much like quicksand as other mattresses. This is especially true at the medium and firm settings.
Overall, the Amore tends to feel more comfortable than the average memory foam mattress. If you want a complete memory foam experience, then perhaps another mattress would be a better fit, because the Amore has a feel closer to a hybrid of memory foam and latex foam. It responds a little more slowly than typical memory foam, but not as slowly as latex does. The effect might not be obvious if you have not spent time with memory foam before, but as long as you are happy with how it feels then it is the right fit for you.
Amore Beds is a company based in Chicago that aims to serve customers through direct, customized orders for mattresses at an accessible price. They are not unique in this mission, of course. The past several years have seen a significant rise in the number of companies that sell mattresses online, especially ones that use memory foam. The proliferation in the market has made it difficult to tell what separates each brand. Amore Beds builds their mattresses in the US and sources their materials domestically as well. Additionally, they are Centi-PUR certified. Centi-PUR is a test set by the industry to evaluate how easily bacteria and other riders can thrive in a mattress. Getting the certification means that the mattress adheres to the highest standards for safety from chemicals, compounds, and synthetic materials. Passing this test means designing and building the mattress with safety in mind.
Amore has a similar process to most other manufacturers. You place an order online, it arrives in a box a few days later, and then you try the mattress for 100 nights. During that time you can decide whether or not you want to keep it. If not, then you can ship it back at no expense to you. Amore has clearly picked up on the conventions of the industry and is willing to go along with the standard practices that are in place. It is surprising how often some features like the free trial go overlooked in new mattress companies, so it's a sign that Amore has done their homework.
Edge and Other Features
Edge support is a critical aspect of mattress design and feel. When the edge support is too weak, the mattress feels like it lacks shape and it becomes very hard to get out of it. When the support is too strong, then the sleepers are pushed towards the middle and the sides become noticeably harder than the center. The Amore strikes a good balance between the two. This isn't always easy with memory foam but they manage a fair compromise by placing a lot of the edge support in the lower layers of the mattress.
In terms of other features, the most important and unique element from Amore Beds is the ability to split the mattress in half and give each half a different firmness. It is already rare to offer the full range of soft, medium, and firm. Many places offer firm and medium only. Amore adds soft and goes one step further by letting you customize the support level of each side. The system works well and there is no crossover between the two separate halves. It is not totally necessary to do this, but if you and your partner have different sleeping preferences, then it might be something worth considering. Neither the edge support nor the quality of the firmness will be compromised.
Warranty and Shipping
The Amore stands out from the crowd in warranty. The industry standard is the initial trial period of 100 days to test out the mattress followed by some kind of long-term warranty if you decide to keep it. The most common length is ten years. This is the case among online retailers, brick and mortar shops, and just about anywhere else. However, Amore elected to offer a warranty with a length of 20 years. This essentially doubles the effective lifespan of the mattress, which means a large saving by not having to replace it as often. Most people will not need to use their warranty because they will want to switch out to a different mattress or will keep it past the limit date, but it is a sign of the confidence that Amore Beds has in their build quality. It is also inviting if you have had problems before with mattresses that did not last as long as you wanted them to. Once again, this is not a common issue but the double warranty certainly stands out in the mattress industry as being far more than its peers would offer.
The shipping process is straightforward. The mattress arrives in a light, but bulky package. Once you open the cardboard box, the mattress is inside, all rolled up in a plastic cover. Once you take it out and remove the cover, the mattress unrolls itself and you can position it onto the bedframe.
The final cost of the Amore Beds mattress depends more on your personal choices than with other mattresses. There are several determinants of the cost. The most important one is size. Larger mattresses cost more, of course, so make sure you have the right size selected. After that, you will choose firmness levels and whether it will be single or split firmness, which costs a little more. The Amore has one more option, which is the therapeutic copper incorporated into the top layer. If you choose to add this, it will cost approximately $50 more depending on what you selected for the other options. Shipping and return shipping are both free, so the cost of the mattress itself is the only thing that you need to pay for. You have the freedom to test out different configurations and see what makes the most sense for your budget and your needs. Don't forget to explore the split option to see if it makes a difference, because it could be a serious improvement to your sleep as a couple if it is set up correctly.
Online Feedback
The Amore Beds mattress is fairly well-reviewed online although there are not that many reviews up yet due to how new the company is. The ordering and shipping experience is much like other companies. You also need to keep in mind the fact that there will be some outgassing as a result of the memory foam, so there could be a slightly odd smell for the first 24 hours. Other than that, reviewers had a smooth time acquiring the mattress and it shipped quickly. The 100 day free trial proved helpful in making a decision on whether to keep it or not, but so far no reviewers have decided to send it back. The low weight and ease of transportation was a major upside to help get it into place on the bed after it arrived at the home.
Point By Point
The Amore Beds mattress is for you if…
- You want memory foam with strong edges
- You and your partner have different firmness preferences
- You want a longer warranty
- You want an affordable memory foam mattress
The Amore Beds mattress might not be for you if…
- You want a more fundamental, basic memory foam
- You want a latex mattress
- The firmness levels do not feel good to you
Final Word
The Amore Beds mattress is a new player on an already crowded market. However, several things enable the company to stand out. The most notable of these are the long warranty and the ability to split the firmness levels of the mattress. As far as memory foam mattresses go, the Amore is fairly good at a reasonable price. The only question that remains is how well Amore can maintain their fast ship times if the demand for their mattresses climbs. So far they are performing well, which is a good sign not only for their ability to get the mattress to your door but also their ability to fulfill warranties later on if necessary.

It's a record 300 sales so far this year as Michael Mahan at Worth Avenue Yachts tells me he worked with Simon Gibson and Mark Osterhaven to represent buyer and seller in the sale of the 58.5m motor yacht Islander.
She was delivered by Australian Yacht Builders in 1991 to a design by Glade Johnson and was originally built as an ABS classed motor-sailer. In 2010 Islander had a complete internal and external refit which saw her masts and keel removed to convert her into a motor yacht.
The luxurious full beam main saloon offers four different seating areas while the sky lounge provides magnificent views and offers a sophisticated area for entertainment. A dramatic spiral staircase leads from the lobby entrance to each of the yacht's three decks, with an elevator to all decks including the sundeck where there is a huge entertaining deck with bar and pool.
Islander offers accommodation for up to 12 guests in six staterooms comprising a master suite, four double staterooms and a twin cabin. The full beam master suite is generously proportioned and features his and hers bathrooms and an owner's study.
Islander has a range of 4,000 nautical miles at 12 knots, with a top speed of 15 knots. Power comes from two 2,330hp MTU diesel engine.
Islander was asking $12.85 million.

New homes can be scary. But when you take the time to think about it, and plan ahead, maintaining a home is easier than you think – a manageable mix of experience and common sense. Here are five skills that will help maintain your new home for years to come.
Fixing A Toilet
It's not as daunting as it sounds. Just remember that toilets work with gravity – the water wants to flow freely. Don't be afraid to open that tank up and adjust the floater and valves as needed. Occasionally run the water (flush the toilet, turn on the sink) in unused rooms, like the guest bathroom, to keep the pipes clear and functioning.
Dealing With Animals
Sometimes your animal neighbors invite themselves in. While it's always better to use professionals if you have a…

When you think about it, it doesn't even make any sense that God the Son would take everything that belonged to Him and give it to us. And beyond that, that the God of the universe would take all of our nothingness onto Him.
Thankfully, we don't have to understand it.
Thank you, God!

World Bulletin/News Desk
Greece's central bank governor George Provopoulos told parliament on Friday the Greek banking system was well regulated, otherwise it would have collapsed.
Provopoulos was answering questions about Piraeus Bank's takeover of troubled state lender ATEbank. MPs also asked him about reports by Reuters regarding Piraeus' chairman, Michael Sallas.
He said the articles about Sallas referred "to isolated incidents, implications that are presented as facts and selected parts of statements by experts and non-experts to arrive at an arbitrary conclusion in my opinion - that the Greek banking system is suffering from bad corporate governance and inadequate regulation."
If this were true, Provopoulos said, "then today there would no banks left standing." He added that "when a country's regulatory authority is defamed, in the end the country itself is defamed."
Greek banks, battered by the country's severe debt crisis and deep recession, have had to be recapitalised. Shut off from the interbank market, they rely on the national central bank for liquidity. They have also tapped 18 billion euros so far of 48 billion euros in agreed bailout funds from the European Union and the International Monetary Fund.
Last week, the government gave the green light for Piraeus to take over the healthy part of ATEbank, which was seriously undercapitalised and deemed unviable.
A Reuters report in July revealed how Piraeus raised more than 140 million euros of new capital via special offshore companies, some linked to Sallas and his family, funded by other Greek banks. Some academic experts described the scheme as tantamount to raising "virtual capital".
Answering opposition Syriza party MP Nadia Valavanou on the issue, Provopoulos said no Greek or European law was violated because Sallas' holding in Piraeus was under 5 percent and the loans were provided by another bank.
Provopoulos said Sallas had reported to the central bank both his direct and indirect holdings, but was not obliged to disclose holdings of his family members because they did not act jointly with him and were not financially dependent on him.
Regarding allegations in Reuters reports that the bank was renting properties from vehicles linked to Sallas and his family, Provopoulos said the issue was being probed by the central bank. The governor, a former senior executive at Piraeus and Emporiki Bank, said that so far, "there is no regulatory interest as far as a possible conflict of interest is concerned or a negative impact on the equity capital of Piraeus Bank."
A spokesman for Piraeus said it had nothing to add to Provopoulos' remarks.
Piraeus is suing Reuters over the story about the bank renting properties owned by companies run by Sallas and his family. The bank is claiming 50 million euros in damages.
Reuters global editor for ethics and standards, Alix M. Freedman, said: "Our coverage of Piraeus and of the Greek banking system has been accurate and fair to every person and institution involved."Last Mod: 04 Ağustos 2012, 12:15
