Loading ...Bought a slow juicer last week which was delivered today, so I made my first quart of veggie juice and a pint of fruit juice for tomorrow morning. I think it was someone here, who linked to a juicing youtube, and thanks for that. Will go a few weeks without fried and baked food to see how it goes.
Demand for physical gold could be affected by the Chinese holiday period that begins this week, MKS note this morning.
“Beginning on Wednesday this week we have Chinese Golden Week commencing, which will keep Chinese markets shut between 1-8 October,” it said. “Given the natural support derived from Chinese physical demand, their absence over this period, combined with another strong payrolls figure expected this Friday, could heap added pressure on the gold. This is a very similar scenario to last year where gold was aggressively sold by speculators during the absence of the Chinese.”
LOL, yep, set off the nukes. If they do will it make the pm pain go away?
Hope so, I’m sick of it, all of it. Nukes sound like a good solution.
This was snipped from Richard640 post and R.Russellsarticle..Could it be Obama is growing a PAIR …finally I agree with something he says.I m tired of everybody using the US Military for their own ends .Muslims in the Mid East need to do something for their own defence.The US took out guys like Saddam,Mubarak and now going after ASsad all the stabilizing forces and now moan and groan about not having any leadership in the mid east willing to fight for their own interests.
Really Obama which is it ? You brought this on yourself ! Typicall liberal responce wanting it both ways ! Does he really have the balls to NUKE ’em ? Talk is cheap ! Is he all TALK ? He’s put himself in a BOX ,no wonder nobody respects him..He’s a Classic !
Worked all weekend at hospital, so tired I thought I was going to puke. Thankfully the drug reps found me a Rye and Ginger and I’m feeling much better now 🙂

Stephen Barrett and the “National council for Health Fraud” and “Quackwatch” are the true frauds here. They are apologists and defenders of the pharmaceutical companies, nothing more. Kinda similar to the World Gold Council.
The short list of Doctors and researchers who have blown the lipid hypothesis (the low-fat religion) right out of the water:
Drs. Michael and Mary Eades
Gary Taubes
Dr. Catherine Shanahan
Nora T Gedgaudas
Dr. William Davis
Weston Price

95 % pill pushers….of course they are, the Pharma’s hand out freebies non stop.
I was once with some dentists on a skiing holiday..turned out it was all covered by a Pharma company …..and they had Reps in the bars buying all their drinks. Not even sure if they had to buy the Ski pass !!!!!!
OK, it was a bad choice of articles because this guy clearly has a bad history with patients. I clearly would not use him. I still stand on the basis of the article based on my research on other alternative doctors who feel that saturated fats are a vital and necessary part of a person’s health. The idea that is raises cholesterol might be true but I do believe (based on things I’ve read) that there is great hype on the subject of cholesterol and just a way to sell more pharmaceuticals. Personally I hate doctors. Think 95% are just pill pushers and go along with the BS mainstream medical field. Nutrition, stress release and exercise are better than any pill. A person needs to eat the right foods as a preventative measure for illness(That doesn’t mean eating at McDonalds and for sure stay away from GMO foods. Buy organic or grow your own ).JMHO Will look for a more credible source regarding saturated fats down the road. DYODD LOL BTW, I believe Dr. Mercola is on board with this and his credentials are pretty decent just to name one at least.
Re 800/1500
In a word no. All depends on when the Chinese have had their fill of cheap Gold from the paper scum. At some point they will have bought enough and stun everyone with how much they have got.
Tdy yet another classic. ISIS 1 mile from Baghdad oil is up…Hong Kong huge demo …but the PM;s on their backsides……and despite the news the SM may well close up.
another miracle recovery in the SM, and a predictable drift lower in pm’s….it just never ends
John Hathaway issues imminent gold explosion warning number 178=
It’s not fun but this is the kind of thing that explosive moves come out of. What I really like is that the rest of the global equity markets are starting to show some weakness.
I think the biggest headwind gold has had has been this perception that investors can make money in the stock market, and the averages keep going higher so they don’t wan to miss out on the gains. So if we can break that spell, which would mean a hard correction in the global stock markets, this would remind people of the risk in the markets at these lofty levels, and that would give the gold market a pretty solid bid.
Of course we know that there is an enormous amount of short interest in the gold market, mainly speculative short interest, and that will provide the fuel for a major move higher.”
Hathaway added: “Something else that’s interesting to me here is that the gold/silver ratio is breaking out. The ratio gold/silver ratio is now over 69 and pushing 70. I think that’s interesting because that’s usually a coincident indicator, if not a precursor indicator, of economic weakness. I believe the economy is much less robust than the consensus has it. This is even before we see interest rates move higher.
But before we join the celebrating and victory laps they are doing on CNBC and Bloomberg, the durable goods number was bad today. A lot of the housing numbers are bad. Also, yesterday the Dutch equivalent of FedEx talked about having to rethink its forecast for the rest of this year by adjusting estimates sharply lower. To me those are signs of economic weakness.
This also confirms to me that not only is the economy soft but it’s also continuing to weaken. This will put the kibosh on the people who think the Fed can withdraw monetary stimulus and will be successful in doing so.”
Hathaway continued: “The Ned Davis research index of gold sentiment is the lowest it’s been in 30 years of data. They have data going back to December 30, 1994. Their chart of sentiment right now is basically at zero. Well, when that index is below a reading of 35, and of course it’s at zero right now, the average level of gains on trades is about 17 percent.
The other thing worth mentioning is that Mark Hulbert’s gold sentiment index is now at the second-lowest level ever. Hulbert said, ‘There has only been one time in the last 30 years when the HGNSI got any lower than it is today. That came in June 2013 when it fell to minus 56. Today it’s at minus 46.9.’ A couple of weeks after the June 2013 reading a rally began that by the end of August had tacked on more than $200 to the price of gold.
So this is the kind of thing that Bill Haynes’ $40 million gold buyer is seeing. It’s just extreme pessimism regarding gold. And if you put that together with a huge short interest and the fact that the global stock markets are now cracking, that’s a very, very powerful cocktail for a massive rally in gold.”
I heard that Dr. is a quack and lost his license to practice medicine in 2008 and most of the medical community poo poo’s on his advice.

BUt low fat doesn’t mean blah taste–indian, chinese-thai-indonesian food–all whole grain and veggie/bean based–tastes pretty doggone good to me!
Apropos of nothing….ya got any idea if gold sees 800 first or 1500…?
Kunstler today—“We’ll become ISIS
Of course, the idea that higher education can lift a population out of this vortex of anomie is a cruel joke, especially now with the college loan racket parasitizing that flickering wish to succeed, turning young people into debt donkeys. The shelf-life of that particular set of lies and swindles will hit its sell-by date soon in a massive debt repudiation — and the nation will come to marvel at the mendacious system it allowed itself to get sucked into. But this still only begs the question of what young men will do in such a deceitful system.
My guess is that they will shift their attention and activity from the mind-slavery of the current Potemkin economy to the very monster we find ourselves fighting overseas: a domestic ISIS-style explosion of wrath wrapped in an extreme ideology of one kind or another replete with savagery and vengeance-seeking. The most dangerous thing that any society can do is invalidate young men. When the explosion of youthful male wrath occurs in the USA, it will come along at exactly the same time as all the other benchmarks of order become unmoored — especially the ones in money and politics — which will shatter the faith of the non-young and the non-male, too. Also, just imagine for a moment the numbers of young men America has trained with military skills the past 20 years. Not all of them will be disabled with PTSD, or mollified with rinky-dink jobs at the Wal-Mart, or lost in the transports of heroin and methedrine.
A full fat diet tastes so much better than a low fat one, add in some moderate exercise and all should be well.
The taste of margerine is vile, give me full fat butter any day, same with cream and milk.

Geneva Report Warns Record Debt and Slow Growth Point to Crisis

A “poisonous combination” of record debt and slowing growth suggest the global economy could be heading for another crisis, a hard-hitting report will warn on Monday.
The 16th annual Geneva Report, commissioned by the International Centre for Monetary and Banking Studies and written by a panel of senior economists including three former senior central bankers, predicts interest rates across the world will have to stay low for a “very, very long” time to enable households, companies, and governments to service their debts and avoid another crash.
Good article.
I believe this is correct for a number of reasons but if I had only one it would be this. If the goobers said lo-fat and margarine were good then it must be BS. When were you ever really told the real deal about anything from the goobers? Quite frankly though, many doctors are coming out with the idea that Saturated Fats are good for the body. Margarine is now becoming vilified. Of course, one must be careful what the source of the sat fats is from. Like avoiding meat with antibiotics and hormones.
I didn’t like the early action in gold and bailed at 8:35 am on my JNUG…but the SM turning down again may help gold…so I may get back in–even for a bounce the “ship turns slowly”=the $ index is down more that it was earlier but still is insignificant….crude is gaining….that gold couldn’t hold its gains when stocks were down 150 early on is not good action.

Afghanistan To Sign U.S. Security Agreement, Adviser Says
KABUL, Afghanistan (AP) — A senior adviser to U.S. President Barack Obama said Monday that Afghanistan will sign a deal Tuesday to allow American soldiers to remain in the country past the end of the year.
John Podesta, speaking to a news conference at the U.S. Embassy in Kabul, said he didn’t know if newly inaugurated President Ashraf Ghani Ahmadzai would be the official signing the deal for Afghanistan.
Podesta said he would sign it on behalf of the U.S.
The deal will allow about 10,000 American troops to stay in the country after the international combat mission ends on Dec. 31.
The announcement comes after Ashraf Ghani Ahmadzai was sworn in Monday as Afghanistan’s new president, replacing Hamid Karzai in the country’s first democratic transfer of power after the 2001 U.S.-led invasion toppled the Taliban.

Copy that. They kept the “ball” or “game” (artificial stimulus) going after 1975 until 2008 when they hit a solid brick wall when the Americans “gave up” paying off debt on crashing real estate.
The “emerging markets” were CREATED with US consumer and tax dollars. It was a no brainer to me in 2008 that China et all would get hurt, go backwards, were peaking when Americans stopped spending. They get hurt.
We would have done better staying out, certainly! Who knows what the PTB would like there? I do think things aren’t going their way. They have some overall strategy but aren’t omnipotent.
