$1364 now … got to like this strong metals action. 🙂

A few years of this would be ok …

How do they know 50,000 are missing if they are missing?

Trump and his lawyers are not seriously considering Trump talking to Mueller under oath? Surely he is just be playing the media? There is nothing good that could come of that or be accomplished. Period.

THE LEAD STORY – ‘HANNITY’ EXCLUSIVE – ‘MISSING’ FBI TEXTS FOUND?: The Justice Department has started recovering some of the missing texts between two FBI officials under scrutiny for alleged anti-Trump views, Fox News’ Sean Hannity reported on Wednesday’s “Hannity,” citing DOJ sources … 50,000 missing text messages between FBI agents Peter Strzok and Lisa Page over a five-month period have been at the center of controversy on Capitol Hill since the DOJ notified congressional committees that there was a gap in records between Dec. 14, 2016, and May 17, 2017.

Just waiting for 1360 to bust with some gusto

Can’t believe they’re able to hold it back.

here in Colombia , most homes have a reserve tank in the attic in case of loss of water pressure , and to add to the anti-seismic resistance of the reinforced concrete/rebar columns . Concrete has impressive compressive strength , and the weight of concrete upper floors and stored water keeps the columns under compression to avoid cracking during earthquakes. It works ! I have seen the walls and columns flexing during earthquakes without damage – very impressive .
I saw one with 10 000 liter capacity at the home center store the other day .
Most are more the 500 liter size .That is a half ton of water sloshing overhead during an event.

Turkey to U.S.: end support for Syrian Kurdish YPG or risk confrontation

ANKARA/BEIRUT (Reuters) – Turkey urged the United States on Thursday to halt its support for Kurdish YPG fighters or risk confronting Turkish forces on the ground in Syria, some of Ankara’s strongest comments yet about a potential clash with its NATO ally.

But you will need thirty years without rain .

But with all the ‘gators gone , how do we dispose of ‘undesirables ‘ without leaving evidence ?

TORONTO, Jan. 24, 2018 /CNW/ – IAMGOLD Corporation (“IAMGOLD” or the “Company”) has signed an agreement with the Government of Suriname whereby it has been granted the exploration rights to the Brokolonko property. The property is located approximately 30 kilometres from the Rosebel mill in Suriname and just northwest of the previously acquired Saramacca property and the Sarafina property optioned to IAMGOLD. Unlike Saramacca and Sarafina, IAMGOLD has not acquired Brokolonko from a third party, but has instead secured the rights to exploration directly from the Government of Suriname.

groundwater? who cares?  i have a 500 gallon tank of rainwater (seen here in the construction phase) as a heat sink in the greenhouse.  my catchment area is sufficient to fill it with half an inch of rain.

Definitely something going on with the dollar and not just Mnunchin’s comments.

Seems to me they’ve got to step on pm’s to keep the appearance that there’s no panic

There’s absolutely no way either metal should be down

if Georgia cuts off the groundwater to Florida, then the swamp that breeds those nasty swamp lizards will dry up, right?

Go Dawgs !!

🙂

No doubt there is a hell of a fight going on in the bankster pits this morning. Cant help but take a WAG as to what increased PM prices would mean to that world of Quad Zillion  derivatives. Banksters appear desperate to contain Silver this morning. Bless their little hearts. 🙂   (Which is Southern speak for Trump’s “shithole’)

Closing in on being down another 1%

I don’t know how long the scum can keep pm’s from exploding right here, right now

Maybe if we bust above 1360 the dam breaks, but we should be up $20 easy

as the cost of minting exceeds the value of the coin .

As we did back in the 60s when we stopped issuing silver coins .

I can still remember a student assembly from that era , with Hubert Humphrey ‘defending’ that move . His words ” put different global denominations on a table and turn out the lights . The US dollar will be the one that has disappeared when the lights come on .” He was right , thanks to the petrodollar .

Stop putting the zeros on the notes , just show mil ( a thousand ) instead .

Maybe the next step is to issue a ‘New Peso’ worth 1000 ‘Old Pesos’ as France did around 1960 ?

If we lose petrodollar status globally , this could happen in America . The reset would make ‘stackers’ rich , but would likely see massive social unrest . I would rather be ‘poor’ as I am now than see that happen .

appears there are a lot of players that just want to GTFO!

PM’s should be soaring right now but the heavy hand is still there

Correction : Even the 2000 peso note is now 2 mil pesos . I think 1000 may now be a coin , but I am not certain of that .

100 000 pesos …under $40 US.

Not sure I’ve ever heard a US Treasury Secretary actually endorse a weaker dollar before like Mnunchin did.

We’ll see what the COT’s look like, could be interesting. Hard to believe the banks would get caught flat footed.

Looks like they’ll try to make a defense of 1360 for now.

Sure is amazing to see the SM futures up 100 pts. every morning

and it takes thirty years to reach us , according to some information posted at one of our local springs … Blue Spring near Orange City FL flows some one hundred million gallons per day into the St. John’s River , at a constant year round temperature of about 72 degrees F. That relatively warm flow attracts about 150 to 200 manatees to the outflow each time we have a cold snap . Otherwise they suffer a form of hypothermia as the St. John’s River and other waterways dip below 60 F.

On the other item …the US dollar , as many of you know my wife is Colombian and I spend a few months here each year . A couple of years after Obama took office , the exchange rate was around 2600 Pesos per dollar . Then it rose again to over 3000 . This morning 2812 , but perturbations take a few days to settle out .

When I was a youngster , the Canadian dollar cost more than the US dollar , then about 20 ? years ago it had dropped so that it took about C$ 1.40 to buy a US dollar .

Around 1962 I worked for a year in Switzerland . You got 4 SF per dollar then , and 4.4 New Francs ( France had done a decimal change from the earlier Franc ). The SF is now worth more than the US dollar , and before the Euro , the French Franc was trading at around 8 per US $.

In short , I can still become a Peso millionaire for under $400 ! Yippeee !
