The United States pledged Tuesday to destroy its land mine supply outside of the Korean peninsula, in Washington’s latest move to make good on a decade-old promise to sign up to an international treaty banning the weapons.
“We will diligently undertake to destroy stockpiles of these land mines that are not required for the defense of the Republic of Korea,” said State Department spokeswoman Jen Psaki.
The U.S. will also “not assist, encourage or induce anyone outside the Korean peninsula to engage in activity prohibited by the Ottawa Convention,” the White House said in a statement.
The announcement comes after persistent criticism of the U.S. for failing to sign the 15-year-old Ottawa Convention, which aims to abolish the use of mines. U.S. refusal to join their ranks places the country on a list that also includes Myanmar, North Korea and Uzbekistan.
The mine-ban agreement currently has 161 signatories — 80 percent of the world’s nations. Then-President Bill Clinton pledged in his 1994 address to the United Nations General Assembly to eventually eliminate the use of land mines.
Washington announced in late June that it would not expand its land mine stockpile and would eventually eliminate its supply to accede to the Ottawa Convention

Right What ever happened to the “If your not with us your against us.” Let’s use it in the right context. If anyone is offended to our flag or freedom of religion or anything else is against us and needs to leave.

Some of the short term gold and silver indicators are turning up. Short term indicators are notoriously unreliable but every long term indicator is preceded by short term indicators.
Hope you got a little relief today.

Can someone remember the name of the poster who posted a lot of information on junior miners several months ago? I believe the one I am referring to passed away.

“.. is pleased to announce that a prominent US resource investor has agreed to acquire approximately 9.9% of Columbus Gold, representing the entire private placement on amended terms from those announced on September 2, 2014, which include a reduction in the size and price of the offering. Overall, the amended placement is more favourable to Columbus Gold and its shareholders by eliminating the dilutive warrant component, and facilitating the financing to close promptly.
“The non-brokered private placement, as amended, will now consist of 13,400,000 common shares, at a price of $0.40 per share, for gross proceeds of $5.36 million.
“Robert F. Giustra, Chairman and CEO of Columbus Gold commented: “With the exclusion of the convertible warrant feature, this transaction clearly continues to demonstrate our enduring commitment to protecting our shareholders from unnecessary dilution.”

Hopefully that’s just the beginning of China screwing Wall Street, with gold and silver being the next target.

Hopefully the shares are indicating a little rally could be forthcoming. If so, sure would take the edge off.
There’s a seller in SLV @ $17.10 that’s been showing up all day. We need the bulls to take him out.

Harvey Organ says the Chinese exchange opens September 22, and today is September 23, so I looked for something on Kitco and didn’t see anything. I hunted around the internet and found that Bill Holter said Shanghai would open on September 26. Tyler Durden says something happened on September 17. There seems to be a lot of confusion, as though this was an Obama project.

For a guy who does a fair amount of traveling, DB sure has an “I don’t know and I don’t want to own either one” attitude.
The good thing about this .. if you ever hear that Davy and his side kick are buying PM,s .. you know the top is in.

Overnight $3K gold, eh? A gold bugs wet dream….[snicker]
Organ says when China and Russia disclose the true amount of gold they hold, there will be a price spike never before seen in the history of the world. Organ says, “You will see that you will go to sleep at night, and you will wake up the next morning and see gold bidding at $3,000 per ounce, and there will be no offer, and it will rise by $500 a day. It will come in 2014. They are running out, they don’t have it.”
The supplies for silver are even more strained and suppressed according to Organ. He says, “Silver is similar to what is going on in gold, but even better. In China, on September 22, they are going to have a futures market similar to Comex, but it will be in physical metal. You settle in physical metal. So, for the first time, you are going to see the pure price discovery mechanism work, and it’s going to be in total conflict to the crimes that are being committed on the Comex. Organ thinks silver will trade at “$200 per ounce” and says, “By December, this whole thing is going to collapse. . . .

Good for that young person to take a stand from these mindless kiss asses which attitudes would win no wars then or now against invasion of US territory.
I read now someone in Washington wants to increase the number of immigrants to 2 million a year from 1 million instead of decreasing it to the previous 100k With that don’t see where the Georgia guide stones come in. All I see is a country turned into overpopulated disease ridden low wage resource depleted just like where their trying to get away from without their gov trying to change their life style that caused it then have the audacity to come here and say our country’s flags or religion or customs offend them. That sounds like war words to me. And Mr O who swore to uphold the constitution but claims he’s Christian and plays tough but wimps out. Guess that means if he’s for them he’s against US so what is he doing there?

China Moves To Dominate Gold Market With Physical Exchange
One encouraging factor about the SGE and the SGE international platform is that there is a lot of physical gold flowing through the Exchange. Therefore, price discovery is not just based on an inverted pyramid of mostly unallocated gold as in London or mostly cash-traded futures paper gold as in New York.

They make a big deal about Pit Bulls although most are loyal and friendly unless protecting family. But now their looking for deadly pythons in NY sewer systems migrating from Florida as well as Florida having to worry about poisonous snakes now like cobras. Yet not regulations are made their not registered and not accountable to what happens to them so people let them loose on the public to multiply.
