Ororeef – there is a huge problem with the design of that dam
Concrete has tremendous strength in compression , very little comparatively in tension . If the dam is designed with a convex curve on the reservoir side , water pressure tends to create compression in the concrete . You can demonstrate this by bowing a playing card in one hand , so the side toward your finger tips is bowed in that direction . If you apply pressure to the card on the convex side you will feel a slight increase of outward pressure from the ends of the card . Conversely , putting a little pressure on the concave side will increase the bowing and reduce the end pressure .
Thus water pressure on the reservoir side tries to push outward on the hillsides at each end , anchoring the dam more stongly , while increasing the compressive stress in the concrete . Properly designed the entire concrete structure will be in compression when the reservoir is full . The Hoover/Boulder Dam holding back Lake Mead is a good example . The dam gets stronger as the lake level increases due to increased compressive loading .
A straight dam tends to bow to the downstream side , increasing the tensile stress on that side , which could result in total dam failure , plus reducing the outward pressure anchoring the dam to the hillsides on both ends .
BUT ! A properly designed bowed dam requires more concrete due to the longer length !
IPSO – enjoy a well-deserved break !
on a day which went well for many of us.
ipso facto @ 15:16 I’m Net Optimistic For The USA Future
I’m sticking to my reversal of everything position, and the invisible leftist dictators, big business and big gov’t, that made America Last since 1971, so a reversal of that, is big global business and big global banking, are failing and on the losing side. Socialism on a global scale is failing. The whole system is relearning about past bad decisions of global dictators, and in transition. The global governments and business dictators are having trouble getting away with the things they used to. Growing populism in other countries too.
Mr.Copper
In the chaotic years ahead I sure hope we don’t end up with some extremist dictator … left or right!
Ororeef @ 15:03 I’d rather leave that to God rather than take innocent lives as Pfizer is doing.
IMO the plan is all laid out there in the Book of Revelation. All that needs done is watch this prophesy unfold and PRAY….IMO!
I just looked up Pfizer Wuhan address so this is no BS!
Pfizer (Wuhan) Research and Development Co., Ltd.’s headquarters is located at Building B14, No.666, Gaoxin Avenue, Donghuxi njishu Development Zone Wuhan, Hubei, 430073 China
silverngold @ 13:34
Now we can get rid of both WUHAN and Pfizer..by taking out the 3 Gorges dam ..look at the Map..a wall of water will wipe them off the face of the earth . The base of the Dam is leaking anyway,they ran out of steel and used bamboo ..It wont take too much to liquify the soil at the base ..a good shaking will do…..
Stories
An auto mechanic I know said…..
“Whoever invented the Check Engine light, was a genius, they make so much money on it”. Another story, car dealer friend I get lots of good stories from, told me his friend (retired) took a job at Home Depot. And was told by management, if he sees someone roll a full shopping cart of merchandise out the door without paying do NOT interfere or you get fired.
Stew Peters Show: Pfizer’s Israeli Covenant, Whistleblower: “It’s Time To Burn Pfizer To The Ground”
About 8 minutes and much more about Pfizer and its tentacles (Graphene) getting exposed FWIW. Also exposed is that Pfizer has a research and development lab in Wuhan China and it’s address is 666! Please people, don’t let this jab be given to your kids! I could not make the rumble version play on this browser so I changed the video to Brighteon which seems to play okay. Please Wake Up!

CDE has a history of screwing their stockholders …..
it acts like a criminal enterprise…..
Why in Hell are Canadians so Peacefull ?
what will it take to rile them up? The gubberment confiscastes their Bank Accounts ..Civilized people dont act that way. Are their Brains frozen ? Are they cowards ? What is it…? Do they like living in Fear ? Anybody that accepts domination as Security deserves neither Freedom nor Safety ….They will get what they deserve !
Re CDE Coeur Mining. Down 15%? How Can They Lose Money With $1800 plus gold???
Market cap down to a measly $1.35 Billion. Lets not be surprised if some bigger miner like NEM $51 bil/cap or GOLD $39 bil/cap, or AEM $23 bil/cap, takes it over, buys it out. It sure is extremely low on the charts. IAG recently got reamed out on the recent lows by a big investment company and rejiggered the leaders. Coming back nicely.
NEM & AEM but especially GOLD
have been tearing it up lately and all three have plenty of room to run once we get a little pull back.
Re: Munger
That’s a bold call. 🙂
Munger is a helluva investor, but he is one ornery, sarcastic dude.
@ipso facto re Charlie Munger Says Fiat Currency “Going To Zero Within 100 Years”
I just read the story. And for the first time in my life reading financial media, some person of high regard, blamed the financial system (bank and bankers and excess money creation, loans) for the reason we ended up with an Adolf Hitler. (hyperinflation)
However, I myself knew this, re common sense decades ago, how and why Hitler ended up in power. A Financial Banking Calamity. But nobody on the media ever mentioned it. Ask yourself. Why not!!????? The media always redirects people’s attention, so they watch the wrong ball. Is this the start? Will the Media start reeducating people, or liberals, about the danger of excess money creation to hand out like candy???
Parts of story below:
He added that the stock market doesn’t need to be as liquid as it is.
“It’s like a bunch of people getting drunk at a party,” Munger said, adding that it’s like a bunch of people getting drunk at a party and everyone is having so much fun that they don’t think about the consequences. You can argue the wretched excess of the ‘20s gave us the Great Depression and the Great Depression gave us Hitler, the 92-year-old mumbled, so “it’s serious stuff.”
Munger says they’d just need to find a way that makes the stock market less liquid.
- The current market excess is a problem… and led to Hitler in the past.
- Global warming fearmongering is overblown.

HUI being denied 280
Not a big surprise as it probably is some resistance. Not oversold just yet but RSI is at 66, 70 has always been a warning.
Looks like we’ll touch $1900 at some point today.
Definitely feels like the early days in 2001 or so.
Hmm why would that be?
