Silver Stackers: Measure your Stash like a Miner |
When attempting to quantify the amount and quality of a possible mineralized
deposit on their property, exploration companies and producers generally follow
a process which seeks to state, in reasonably accurate and concise terms, just
what they have...or might have. Following the Bre-X fiasco, wherein 'highly
inaccurate' reserves of a supposed deposit in Borneo were publicized and acted
upon by a tidal wave of investors, sophisticated and neophyte alike, a new

Audio 2018 |
It’s been a long time since I did an item about my audio hobby. “Audio” means machines that make music more enjoyable.

If you remember, I used to have a rather ambitious (actually, very ambitious) DIY horn setup, based around some wideband horns from the 1930s, used in the 115-6000hz range. I sold that off, and went back to headphones.
I still have the headphones. Headphone audio has become much more popular in the last 15 years or so, and foMonday, February 19, 2018 |

It's Looking A Lot Like 2008 Now... |
Economic and market conditions are eerily like they were in late 2007/early 2008.
Remember back then? Everything was going great.
Home prices were soaring. Jobs were plentiful.
The great cultural marketing machine was busy proclaiming that a new era of permanent prosperity had dawned, thanks to the steady leadership of Alan Greenspan and later Ben Bernanke.
And only a small cadre of cranks, like me, was singing a different tune; warning instead that a painful reckoning in our financial system wTuesday, February 6, 2018 |

The dangerous dream of secession |
A fundamental requirement for lasting peace and prosperity is to reject government by coercive monopolies such as we have had for all of human history.How anyone can expect a government invested with a monopoly on violence to restrain itself from bullying people whenever it can get away with it is difficult to understand.Most people apparently refuse to explore alternatives to statism and hope their particular government doesn’t go the way of Zimbabwe or Venezuela — or Nazi Germany or Soviet RusSunday, December 17, 2017 |

Is This The Lost City Of Atlantis Incredible Aerial Photos Of Ancient City In The Pacific |
New aerial photos of an ancient city in the Pacific Ocean have renewed a debate about the existence of the fabled “Lost City” of Atlantis. The new photos have now brought real questions about the existence of the previously assumed fictional city.
The latest episode of the Science Channel’s What on Earth? reveals new aerial images of the site, which was built on top of a lagoon. The virtually uninhabitable Nan Madol is located just off the main island of Pohnpei in Micronesia in the Pacific. AsTuesday, November 7, 2017 |

Safety in banking |
There was a time when banks acted as custodians of their customers’ money. Indeed, keeping a person’s money and using it as if it belonged to you without their agreement is fraud in common law. A banking license legally exempts banks from charges of criminality in pursuing the normal course of fractional reserve banking business, by making it clear that you, the customer, agree to being a creditor of the bank instead of the bank acting as custodian for your money.Modern banking has its roots inFriday, June 2, 2017 |

Global debt woes are building up to a tidal wave |
FT/Dambisa Moyo/05-30-17
Virtually every class of US debt — sovereign, corporate, unsecured household/personal, auto loans and student debt — is at record highs. Americans now owe $1tn in credit card debt, and a roughly equivalent amount of student loans and auto-loans which, like the subprime mortgage quality that set off the 2008 financial crisis, are of largely low credit quality (and therefore high risk).
US companies have added $7.8tn of debt since 2010 and their ability to cover interest pTuesday, May 30, 2017 |

5 Clean Energy Innovations That Could Transform Our World |
Innovations in energy storage, smart grid, and electricity generation technologies will affect every part of the source-to-consumer supply chain for powering the planet. Energy storage tech improves the viabilities of wind and solar power – two energy sources that remain cost prohibitive due to expenses related to batteries that would store generated energy. Smart grids will regulate the movement of energy throughout a city or state, insuring the areas from crippling blackouts. Developments in eWednesday, May 10, 2017 |

Ticking, (Short-Fuse) Time Bombs For The “Challenging” Central Banking Industry |
In yesterday’s “who’s more bullish for Precious Metals – Macron or Le Pen?,” I started with nearly five pages of cold, hard facts – proving across-the-board market manipulation of essentially all Western markets. Which, for the sole purpose of prolonging a terminally ill monetary status quo – in which 1% benefit, at the expense of not just the “99%,” but future generations of “99-percenters” – has created “dotcom-like valuations in a Great Depression Era.” Not to mention, sentiment – per yesteTuesday, May 9, 2017 |

Precious Metals in 2017 - Jeff Nielson |
What can be said about precious metals markets in 2017? Gold
and silver prices slid through most of the final four months of 2016, virtually
wiping out all of the gains of the year.
Regular readers were told
that this was going to happen. It was “the
Fake Rally”
which was the subject of several 2016 commentaries. Readers
were also told to expect a “crash”, both in the broader markets as well as
precious metals.
This is the agenda of the banking crime syndicate known as the

Central Banks Are Now Printing $200 Billion Per Month... Without a Crisis |
A tidal wave of inflation is rapidly moving through the financial system.
Most investors only pay attention to the Federal Reserve. And they are missing the BIG PICTURE for Central Bank monetary policy.
The Fed is tightening policy by hiking rates. But the rest of the world’s Central Banks are printing a combined $200 BILLION in QE every single month.
Yes, $200 billion. At a time when the financial system is out of crisis and the Fed’s put its own “print” button on “pause.”

Silicon Valley Survivalist Builds DIY “Extreme Weather TsunamiBall” To Ride Out Disaster |
Whenever seismic activity kicks up on the planet, earthquakes, volcanoes and tsunamis are triggered.
Just how big, and how devastating, depends upon chance, and the build-up of pressures within the earth.
But anyway you slice it, places like Southern California, and globally, the Ring of Fire, are in the danger zone. Many say that it’s just a matter of time.
With that in mind, survival-minded individuals and disaster preppers have been trying to get ready, and help others get ready, too.

Be Careful What You Wish For, Police Body-Cam Edition - John Rubino |
After the recent deluge of videos showing police abusing and
sometimes flat-out murdering more-or-less innocent citizens, the
willingness of a growing number of cities to equip officers with video
cameras has been hailed as a victory by civil libertarians.
But what if those cameras also extend the surveillance network
exponentially? In the future, if a policeman is facing you, he might be

When The Tidal Wave Hits, Part I - Jeff Nielson |
Disaster is nearly upon us. This has been a
regular
theme
in these commentaries for several years. Increasingly, however, these
warnings draw reactions of apathy rather than alarm. The fact that our
house-of-cards economies (and societies) have not already unraveled does not
mean that this was a false alarm. It means that disaster has gotten much more
imminent.
When straight discourse fails to convey a
message, writers typically resort to a metaphor. But which one? The phrase “the
