just reading through all kinds of anger and bullying by those who claim to be against anger and bullying. As the saying goes, community is only 2 letters away from communism. Anyway, it was a good day.

This was something interesting and may be good for a laugh: "Bank Media Honcho To File Multi Million Dollar Brutality Suit Against LAPD" - http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/2917533/posts?page=5

A powerful honcho at Deutsche Bank is suing the LAPD and the City of L.A. for millions of dollars -- we're told up to $100 mil -- for allegedly being forced into a motel room by cops and then beaten to a pulp.

Brian Mulligan, the Managing Director and Vice Chairman of Media and Telecommunications for the Bank, claims on May 15, he was in the L.A. suburb of Highland Park -- near a marijuana dispensary -- when he was approached by 2 LAPD officers.

We're told Mulligan claims the cops walked up to him and asked why he was in the area, and then proceeded to search both him and his car. Mulligan says the officers found a large amount of cash in the car -- thousands of dollars -- and then put him in a police car and drove to a nearby motel.

We're told Mulligan says the cops told him to stay in the room until they returned. He claims he waited several hours, but the cops never came back. He says he felt he was being set up to be robbed or killed, so he made a run for it. As he ran out, he says cops were right there and began beating him mercilessly.

Mulligan says he was taken to a hospital, where doctors treated him for 15 fractures to the nasal area, a broken scapula, and severe facial laceration to a point where he "barely looked human."

Mulligan was booked for resisting arrest and interfering with law enforcement..............................

So who does one cheer for in this case?

Also, some of my friends are positioning for a short squeeze going into Jackson Hole, then nothing from the Bernank so we see selling until FOMC on 9/12-13. After that.........who knows?

Regarding fireworks? Soon all that's left will be fireworks. It's not really a secret.

Seems like this thing definitely has something to do with Blythe

1) Blythe is back video.....will she be able to do it....???

2) "Good luck with that Schnookums"

3) The 'Evil Women' video post.

So is Blythe going to get charged by the CFTC as part of their silver manipulation investigation?  This is my best guess.

Or maybe she going to turn on Jaime @ the Morgue and become a whistle blower to save her own hide? 

This is gonna get reeeeeal good!  Got my popcorn ready!

and waiting is easier said than done. BUT I AM NOT SELLING.  When I can trade a portion of my silver for a piece of land that has the ability to sustain my family I will make the move, but not until then.

On a side note, this whole waiting for the collapse stuff is really wearing me out. I started a new thread in the prepping section of the forums concerning this topic. Please check it out and add your thoughts.

Mentioned a TON of info on JPM and it wasn't good for them.   Derivatives exposure of 90+T, and a balance sheet of -30+T ...

I am confident in his rock solid analysis from past information that has come to pass. 

Wasn't Blythe leaving JPM for Deutsche Bank? She was going to. Or maybe she was going into a dual role. I don't remember. Anyway maybe Turd could explain if this move is significant and more than simple logistics, if he hasn't ignored me.

Seems that I recall that story about Blythe and Deutche Bank

Hi there

Don´t know if this has been posted here already - if so, sorry for repeating.

According to the Voice of Russia, the main daily Chinese newspaper - Renmin Ribao - published recently an article mentioning the intention of the Government to multiply its reserves of Gold BY SIX (adding 5000 MT to what they say they already have).

Of course, no buying entity would find wise to announce in advance its intention to buy - and in such quantities even less. This means that China thinks the time has come to put a pressure on the price to the upside. Why ? I guess that they know that what´s left in London presently (after months, or even years, of shopping there themselves) is peanuts, and their stack cannot be increased much any more. And they are ready to take the opportunity of this situation to squeeze our dear Blythe and put the Western banks in a fatal corner - or at least to threaten to do so.

There is a war going on - it´s hot in Syria presently, but it extends to Iran, Pakistan and the South China Sea. The metals are a weapon the Chinese can use against the Anglo-Saxon establishment - and they now how and when to use it. The next weeks and months will be very interesting to watch.

Having gone through the precious metals rise and fall in the late 1970's and early 1980's, I continue to be struck by how human nature has remained the same.  We all want to know just what is going to happen in the future and we have a need to believe the predictions of others.  Many need to believe that SOMETHING BIG is going to happen soon--be it a rise (or fall) in the price of precious metals or total war in the Mid-East, or the pending downfall of our economy. 

Expert after expert was only too willing to take your money and share with you his wonderful predictions.  We were going to have $10,000 gold and $1000 silver and the atomic bomb was going to be used in the Mid East conflict.  Further, our economy would soon collapse. 

Didn't happen then and the odds are great that they won't happen now.

. 

I predict that this year and next year will see no major change in our economy and no increase in the usual mayhem occurring in the Middle East.  And the price of gold and silver will be pretty much the same at the end of the year as it is now. 

Of course, you may observe that I, myself, am guilty of making predictions.  And that is true.  But I have a lot of evidence to back me up.  For one, NONE of the things that were predicted to happen thirty years ago by supposed experts actually did happen.  Two, look at the record of the more recent predictors.  How accurate have they been?  Pretty abysmal.  Three, you get my predictions for free. 

I got fooled by the "experts" thirty years ago.  I will not be fooled again.

Excellent news!  Got a good portion of my Super in Newcrest (only gold miner available).

I thought the vast majority of Aussie gold went to China.

Guess you listened to the wrong experts 30 years ago.   Both Sinclair and Armstrong called the top in the gold market.   Those who heeded were out safely.

Besides, today is a different place in time.   The macroeconomic fundamentals are completely different now than then.  Just look at the debt levels.   Heck, most of the dangerous OTC derivatives, so much at the epicenter of today's contagion, weren't even invented back then.

And importantly, as Sinclair likes to say: in the 70s, gold was moving away from the system.  Today, gold is moving towards the system, in some form or fashion (witness Central Bank buying).    

Really neat the way you wove the main issues facing us into a workable , realistic plan. I guess it's exactly what I have been doing only I was starting to get a little anxious about the short term. I am only half way to self sufficiency. Another year, with some short term profits from the miners, and I will feel a lot more comfortable.

The beauty of Dagney's posts are often what they bring out in the comments they produce.

Long day.  Just want things to be clear.

Next week is the same garbage that has been the same garbage  for years.  Which Beatle song is that?  Which hedge fund has your back?  Which government regulator sleeps with your girlfriend?  Which politician doesn't run off of batteries?  Which country is utopia?  Why does this euphoria continue?
