ipso, 21.04 ….

so, they are only redeeming paper gold. Hmmmm. And the HK exchange has just closed. Now, you can’t flood the market with physical because nobody has enough (at least, nobody who actually wants to trash their own holdings). But paper gold, well, plenty of that around. So, how to get out of all those pesky short contracts? How about issuing loads of paper gold, and then forcing redemption upon (laughably) physical holders at the collapsed price: but only in cash. {edit} which means you get to keep the physical bought at the lower price …

I bet the fine print allows them to do that.

In Ferretstan it would be is prohibited.

I claim this undiscovered country and hereby name it Ipsotania!

Confusion to the cretins!

That’s great! At least she got her dog back safe. :-)

From a JS posting today. Ain’t this something.

Mr copper

One more post still under the weather.
Don’t get me wrong about vets they’re valuable in the police force.but they should be honest. My step father told me when I was young and said cuz he was sharp shooter x military he should of been a cop, he said ” no I have a temper”.
The girly type should be screened too cuz although they might even not look like it not exactly people person are more likely to harrass or panic

Mr Copper

So that’s why they call you Mr Copper.
What do Ithink of Giys not gun happy going into police force. I think that’s good. Then they won’t go around shooting beating up or tasering people like target practice because the badge will let them think they can.
Or like those dogs people pets they shot.
Vet or not rather have someone with a IQ looking for benifits than someone with out looking for benifits of being hostile and getting away with it. They should be willing to shoot if needed of course but rather have people persons with cool heads than school misfits or bullies and narcicists who love to build themselves ip at the expense of others or borderlines.. Violent.. looking for a job that fits their personality. They are peace keepers or what their job means and abused by these characters.
Remember the guy who walked up to those woman at the 99 ers protest and peppers prayed them ? Lots of guys said I would of liked to be there or wish he would of tried that on me. He was called a fag. Maybe theirs different levels besides being actually gay. Then there was the gay guy who got punched in the face people though he was a woman. The homophobic had no right to hit him although the guy shouldn’t of winked at him lol She could of talke to him instead .. Peace keepers.
Hey now let’s go back to kent state?? They were willing to shoot too. A bunch out outstanding students two of which weren’t even involved. A would be therapist young woman 19-20 one of two was walking to their class. So what dies that say about those willing to use guns .. Panic .. Stupidity.,?
But hey don’t shoot the criminals rioting killing and looting.

Mr Copper

Joking aside, men should not perceive them self so macho that they should ignore saftey. They should also teach respect for life and not going around with their bird shot or Bb gun shooting other unsuspecting creatures that live among them for target practice. I’ve seen this growing up and just had a discussion about it to someone. Frankly O don’t think these youngster perceive themselves as doing anything wrong until later if they are lucky enough to grow a conscious. Even though I had access to guns since age six stating with Bbs bird shots then 22s then to higher calipers I never once used a bird or creature for target practice. I was guilty of shooting a pigion with a bird shot ciz I wanted to see of it tasted like duck on a relatives farm. It didn’t taste like duck but thought it was pretty good then. Would O do it now when they are more naively trusting that ducks or quail, probably not less I was for some reason hungry in a disaster or something,
Don’t assume that only men buy their sons bb guns. Even one of my daughters had one bought by me. Should assume those who dislike guns were raised by woman.
The Gov promoted woman’s lib so they could get more money. They could care less about the family, they practically forced it with inflation.
As far as trying to make girly girls out of men I think it’s appalling and wonder if some of these woman have a ax to grind and that’s their way of getting even. At the same time don’t think any woman should be treated with less regard or paid less for doing the same job or under paid because they consider it ” woman’s work” like it’s easy less Thry want to do it.
Ps In northern cal a kid used his 5 year old sister as target practice. She was sitting in a tree h e hit her with a bird shot being child with thinner chest wall the bird shot went through her chest lodge in her heart killing her. Although a child himself will have to live with the fact he killed his little sister the rest of his life.

I agree. Me too. I was speaking “in general” My friend Marie is very conservative. Hunts and shoots too. She on the third husband. First one was a gun collector and shooter. The next two were his friends, two gun smiths. I was just being “general” not total.

Goldilocks

One guy did get hit in the eye, and he ended up ok. Bob had one embedded right between his eyes. :) He got a Dr to take it out, and asked about me. Dr said its ok because it’s copper coated. It can stay there.

Getting hit in the knuckles and other places was common. Hey, what kind of people do you want in the Army and Police?? I’ve noticed and been told by Vietnam Vet cops that many girly type people “are joining for all the wrong reasons”.

NOT because they have experiance with guns or they are brave and not afraid. They just want the benefits and hope they can avoid action.

“have no purpose other than to embarrass or burden her.”

Gee, that’s MUCH WORSE than the S#|T that organization pulls.

Mr.Copper @ 16:17 pm

I totally disagree with your general comments about all women.  

 They certainly are the fairer sex but I am not so sure they are the weaker sex unless you are speaking of shear brute force.  I’ve had the good fortune to work with many professional, smart,  highly qualified women during my life who were the very best in their profession – and yes I am saying they were better than men who I worked with in the same profession. I am firmly in the camp that women can do anything that men can do (other than pure physical strength) and sometimes they can do it even better than men.   Yes, I do believe that women tend to be more liberal than men but not all women are liberal – my wife and daughter are both conservatives and proud of it and in fact I have many conservative women friends.  I dare say that I even have some liberal men and women friends.

Women will one day rule the world, you can write that down and take it to the bank!  JMO

Mr Copper

I still have a BB inbedded in my left cheek. We used to create teems and have BB gun fights. Take turns attacking and defending the old barn.

Well your lucky you didn’t get your eye shot out.

Politically Incorrect Observation

Its getting funnier by the day here. Back in the late 1950s early 1960s when we were told “it’s a mans world”? And “We have the highest living standards inthe world”? Well, that day it was the peak and END of those things. Today you can assume it is now a “womans (and minorities) world”.

Lets not forget Girlymen. They were babies and children in early 1970s when the woman entered the workforce. Divorces were very common in those days. You know why. Many single mom households raising boys THEIR way.

Thats why we have so many anti gun girly men, like Mayor Bloomberg Chuck Schumer etc. Mother would NEVER allow even a BB gun. “You will shoot your eye out” bla bla bla.

floridagold — ‘idiots’? naaaa

a pack of scheming criminals….yaaaa. lamposts are too good for them! wj

So now we have the IRS and some Obama admistration officials saying they are incompetent and idiots

Officials on Benghazi: “We made mistakes, but without malice”

“We’re portrayed by Republicans as either being lying or idiots,” said one Obama administration official who was part of the Benghazi response. “It’s actually closer to us being idiots.”

Well, that’s good. So, she doesn’t need the fifth?

re Lois Lerner, the head of the exempt organizations division

Female Tenters please disregard note. :)

About 20 plus years ago, I foget the crisis at that time, we were discussing it at my brothers house. His wife said…”Well geez, why can’t they just print the money”??

That my friends is how most woman think. In general woman (and girlymen) are liberals and actual men are generally conservative. Soooo. The problems of today we can blame on woman in general.

Fourty five years after the affermative action and womans lib movement, you can figure, take for granted, there are a lot of unqualified people in very high places getting their way.

Liberals in general are very good actresses and liars. To get their way with Daddy they evolved that way because they were the “weaker sex” less strong or as big as men.

In fact, liberals will say all kinds of bad negative things againse conservatives, but NOTE, they NEVER call conservatives liars, because to them, lying is a normal needed thing with them.

floridagold — yes i agree…

before the entire country on live tv plead the 5th and then call for her immediate firing. and persue the criminal investigation. what gall these scum suckers have. wj

re Top IRS official will invoke Fifth Amendment.

By fudging lying manipulating everything they are only doing whats best for us and the greater good. If you believe that one I’ll tell you another.

I would make her appear and make her declare the Fifth Amendment to every question asked – this is the lady who is now heading up the IRS’s involvement with Obamacare

Top IRS official will invoke Fifth Amendment

WASHINGTON – A top IRS official in the division that reviews nonprofit groups will invoke the Fifth Amendment and refuse to answer questions before a House committee investigating the agency’s improper screening of conservative nonprofit groups.

Lois Lerner, the head of the exempt organizations division of the IRS, won’t answer questions about what she knew about the improper screening – or why she didn’t reveal it to Congress, according to a letter from her defense lawyer, William W. Taylor 3rd.

Lerner was scheduled to appear before the House Oversight committee Wednesday.

“She has not committed any crime or made any misrepresentation but under the circumstances she has no choice but to take this course,” said a letter by Taylor to committee Chairman Darrell E. Issa, R-Calif. The letter, sent Monday, was obtained Tuesday by the Los Angeles Times.

Taylor, a criminal defense attorney from the Washington firm of Zuckerman Spaeder, said that the Department of Justice has launched a criminal investigation, and that the House committee has asked Lerner to explain why she provided “false or misleading information” to the committee four times last year.

Since Lerner won’t answer questions, Taylor asked that she be excused from appearing, saying that would “have no purpose other than to embarrass or burden her.” There was no immediate word whether the committee will grant her request.

According to an inspector general’s report, Lerner found out in June 2011 that some staff in the nonprofits division in Cincinnati had used terms like “Tea Party” and “Patriots” to select some applications for additional screening of their political activities. She ordered changes.

But neither Lerner nor anyone else at the IRS told Congress, even after repeated queries from several committees, including House Oversight, about whether some groups had been singled out unfairly.

Where was the Stonecap piece released? Not on Yahoo news or Dow Jones news wires. How is one suppose to see the story? Secondly, I was told by IR that it was RBC that downgraded them not Stonecap. During the conference call, the labor situation was expressed by Lenic to be an existing snag that was being alleviated. The stock price had already, IMHO, reflected this problem fully. If Aurcana would simply focus on La Negra, and divert capital into that project, the negative cash flow problem would quickly disappear. Lenic was even asked that very same question. He feels that Shafter is too good of an asset, so forward they must go.

6 Reasons why Gold Stocks will Begin a big Rally

Florida @ 14:27

Yep, No Spring flowers cause no stinkin Intermediate Up Cycle since Oct 4th. You can see each attempt smashed…the first try being very early January. That was a logical turnpoint. So, Yes…I never expected a continued smash for now almost 8 months! I have never seen anything like this in the PM markets. No 10/20 crossover for 8 months! The pity of it is that I’m 100% in and simply will not sell stocks at these prices. So, what I believe I can’t back it up. I,m stuck. Still, watch those days given…if for nothing else but, amusement.

Richard- Anadarko

Shouldn’t there be a counterparty to this trade. Why didn’t they go bankrupt? Too big to fail? Why didn’t the stock trade to zero? Why stop at 1 cent? If there’s not a counterparty to this trade, did the event not happen? NYSE Cancels Irregular Trade

If Bernake talks of tapering QE tomorrow does gold take a dive?

AS if all the printing since 2009 counts for nothing…all those consequences need not be paid because of

MAGICAL INCANTATIONS [a few WORDS]

uttered by the High Priest…which will compel everyone to immediately sell all gold and silver assets…why? Because talk of tapering is absolute proof that the U.S. will be instanly transformed into the most fiscally prudent entity in the history of the civilised world.

WANKA-that sounds like a good strategy

NUGT 13 mill volume–6.9 mill avg daily

richard i have concluded

i shall just let nugt sit and not double or better up like i’ve done with uslv this morning a 3-1/2 time add on bringing my avg to 12.48 and when nugt one day makes its comeback i’ll exit at the appropriate time and call it a day for the stock issues. i’m going to be playing only the slv’s and gld’s 3x for trade purposes and nugt and dust will not be in my stable any longer since i don’t really follow the stocks as i do the pog/pos. thats the game plan for now. may this market rise in both our favors! best of cheers. wj
