What does that prove?
Pretty much all the elected leaders above a certain level seem to need to make their pilgrimage and kiss the ring. Pictures exist of all recent presidents doing the same thing, and I cannot think of a one who didn't go to Israel and do undefined 'things' before they 'won' their primaries. Obama is a classic example of this. It doesn't strictly speaking 'prove' anything, but it makes a hell of a strong statement about who runs the U.S.. What other country and religion to presidents act like this toward? Jews make up about 2% of the public. That's a lot of hassle (not to mention humiliation) for not a whole lot of votes, eh? I'm guilty of doing this too. It's just something you do when you're at a Holy Site. I went to the Holy Sepulchre there too, did those respective rites, and tried to go to the Temple Mount, where they made it very difficult for non-Muslims that I didn't want to go. |

Account hacked. Apologies, cannot delete. What’s the best-performing exchange-traded fund, mutual fund or index for 2017? An ETF that invests solely in bit-coin, the virtual currency. This ETF posted the highest year-to-date return through July, of 185 percent, according to Steele Expert, a database of mutual funds, ETFs and indices produced by Steele Systems, Inc. In comparison, the S&P 500 Index returned about 11 percent.
The same ETF beat all others over the three-year period ending July 2017. The ETF posted the highest three-year total return, 352 percent (65.4 percent average annual return). In comparison, the S&P 500 Index returned about 36 percent (10.7 percent average annual return).
The ETF has about $475 million in assets under management and invests in bitcoin, which according to its disclosure is “currently unregulated, highly speculative and volatile.”
If you have not followed the development of bitcoin since its introduction in 2009, let me share some basics. A virtual currency, bitcoin is an alternative payment system to currency issued by governments. A FINRA Investor Alert on bit-coin, called “Bitcoin: More Than a Bit
Risky,” puts it this way: “Think of [bit-coin] as a sophisticated computer program that encrypts, verifies and records bitcoin transactions.”
FINRA, the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority, regulates all securities firms doing business in the United States. Bitcoin is “created” by “mining.”
Quoting from the alert: “Like mining for gold, the process is labor-intensive. Mining serves two purposes. First, miners use software algorithms to add transaction records to bitcoin’s public ledger of past transactions and verify legitimate bitcoin transactions. For their efforts, bit-coin miners get transaction fees. In addition, if the miner finds a new “block,” the miner is awarded new bitcoins. A finite number of bitcoins can be mined (21 million, based on the mathematics underlying bitcoin mining).
You can buy bitcoins online and at exchanges, but you don’t get a physical paper or coin in exchange. Instead bit-coin exists in a “digital wallet.” The value fluctuates, and in fact is “extremely volatile, and subject to wide price swings,” according to the alert.
As a result, both regulators and speculators have been drawn to this virtual currency. Speculators are attracted by the possibility of outsized returns (and, as with any speculative “investment,” there is a potential for outsized losses).
And regulators raise warnings. Let me quote further from the alert.
“Buying, selling and using bitcoins carry numerous risks: “Digital currency such as bitcoin is not legal tender. No law requires companies or individuals to accept bitcoins as a form of payment. Instead, bitcoin use is limited to businesses and individuals that are willing to accept bitcoins. If no one
accepts bitcoins, bitcoins will become worthless.
“Platforms that buy and sell bitcoins can be hacked, and some have failed. In addition, like the platforms themselves, digital wallets can be hacked. As a result, consumers can — and have — lost money.
“Bitcoin transactions can be subject to fraud and theft. For example, a fraudster could pose as a bitcoin exchange, intermediary or trader in an effort to lure you to send money, which is then stolen.
“Unlike U.S. banks and credit unions that provide certain guarantees of safety to depositors, there are no such safe-guards provided to digital wallets.
“Bitcoin payments are irreversible. Once you complete a transaction, it cannot be reversed. Purchases can be refunded, but that depends solely on the willingness of the establishment to do so.
“In part because of the anonymity bit-coin offers, it has been used in illegal activity, including drug dealing, money laundering and other forms of illegal commerce. Abuses could impact consumers and speculators; for instance, law-enforcement agencies could shut down or restrict the use of platforms and exchanges, limiting or shutting off the ability to use or trade bitcoins.”
Also of interest is the bitcoin index (NYXBT).
On another note, not connected with the EFT, the Securities and Exchange Commission suspended trading of the securities of a bitcoin company incorporated in Canada Thursday through the morning of Sept. 7.
The reason: “Concerns regarding the accuracy and adequacy of publicly available information about the company including, among other things, the value of [the company’s] assets and its capital structure.”

- My dear, I have compassion on you. What has happened to you, is more than you thought was possible to handle, but you have to admit that you have more than survived the incredible phase of prolonged divorce, fast growth and consciousness upgrade, massive changes in life practicalities, and the flat-out truth that darkness cares nothing about justice. Doctor just told that you seem more balanced than ... ever.
This is the last battle, and there is no taking prisoners. You have not come to the planet to make cease-fire with the only thing that is 'wrong' with Universe - darkness, STS, the illusion of separation. But that does not mean you have to fight. There is no enemy! We are all one, and in the process of waking up. Your understanding that liar is in itself no worse than truther, and thief no worse than honest one, is a great phase-shift. They are just polarities - if a liar or a thief is single minded for the benefit of others (STO), you embrace her. When less than a year ago, you were completely entangled in right and wrong, and had many concepts and judgements, now all chakras are wide open, catalysing change for everyone you meet. As you don't judge anyone, you are able to connect with everyone. Think about the boost! And this is only one of your upgrades.
In no case, there is possibility to 'lose' because there is no win possible for darkness! If the victory of darkness in any way was possible, it would have happened long time ago! The normal state of Universe is that of blissful rest. We all win, no one loses. You get rewarded for being the linchpin guy to make this paramount transition. Being important does not mean you have to stop and plan very carefully. Just continue in the flow, which will show you when it is time to do or to be. It is happening and there is no way to stop it. On the right track, you are.
 “The bird fights its way out of the egg. The egg is the world. Who would be born must first destroy a world. The bird flies to God. That God's name is Abraxas.” Cheers  |

Hi y'all. glad to see everyOne here |

He abandoned you here guys because he felt after all these years he was entitled to break the rules when he feels like.
He's had more than one account perma banned too.
His 2nd to last one (IamNotBack) was banned for what i quoted earlier.
And he claimed the staff banned him because of "Ethereum FUD"
Then they give him another chance and he does all the same shit again..
And once again he railed on with conspiracy etc.
He has never understood in his infinite wisdom WHY things happen.
Yet is willing to quote himself ranting away 5 times in row all over.
His self quotes here were HUGE !
But he let you down cheerleaders.
He CHOSE this outcome.
theymos himself said if he was willing to say he would stop doing it they would unban him.
He said NO.
¯\_(ツ)_/¯ |

Dammit, where is he posting now?
steemit (iamnotback) github (Shelby3) How's he doing? Doctors help him at all? |

Thanks for input. I cant wait to see all of this in code and see it running in the wild. That is the final test.
About my lack of sleep, I deprived myself on purpose because the night before I was still deciding what to do and couldn't sleep much, then the fuckers on the ETF delayed the decision for hours so I had to stay awake.
On top of that I somehow fucked up when I was putting the buy order in poloniex in USDT, I normally click on the amount I have if I want to go all in so it automatically fills all the fields to make the order with all of the USDT I had, but the order wasn't going through because the total was higher than the USDT I had by like 45 satoshis so I had to manually adjust the order, in a matter of second the price went from the bottom 950 back to almost 1000. I could have made a lot of money but I didn't risk enough and I was sloppy setting the buy order so missed some profit.
Anyway it was fun and I made money, now I wonder if there will be another speculative party in march 30 for the Solid X ETF.
Also I also feel better at night, I actually feel good and more lucid, in the morning im sloppy, after I have breakfast I feel like going to sleep again, bad cold tolerance etc. At night is great. If I knew how to code I would code at night and I could get shit done, but I can't code cause my brain is good at music and artistic stuff but I was always bad at stuff that requires the sort of attention and logic that good coders have.
I think it might me about cortisol levels or whatever. I can't get much done cause I don't have the money I would need to do proper research. At least I feel ok at night. I might try forcing myself to go to sleep earlier for a period and wake up early and get some morning sun and see what happens. Maybe I fucked up my circadian rhythm due staying up late too much and this has an impact on thyroid, cold tolerance etc... after I do this then I will get some labs done again, get TSH, t4, t3, reverse t3, antibodies, iron levels, and some other hormones, and a 24hour urine test with cortisol free and total, 17 ketosteroids...+ a couple saliva samples for a proper cortisol curve and see if this changed anything. If there is no positive adaptation and I see no improvement in the morning and cold tolerance then I will have to look deeper, adjust thyroid meds and whatnot. I also got a test where they look at hairs and see mineral levels and toxic levels with inconclusive results. The problem is, it is very difficult to find a dr that can interpret such results and follow your case by step and get involved, and if you do then you need to have a lot of money which I don't. Anyway I don't want to derail the thread, my case is not that bad, most people have sluggish thyroids nowadays, I would like to have better cold tolerance and better mornings but having optimal health is pretty difficult because healthcare drs usually will not take a case like mine serious so you need to find and and pay a good one.
Don't stress |

I need to fix my thyroid status, finding the root causes is too hard so realistically
Stabilize it. Get rich. Hire the best doctors at a university research hospital (in a first world country) and isolate the root cause. Live an awesome life thereafter. Helps to have a goal. |

And HFCS is cheaper than sugar because of the government farm bill corn subsidies. Products with HFCS are sweeter and cheaper than products made with cane sugar.
I've tried some of those "retro" drinks that contain real sugar instead of corn syrup and they tasted worse. Not sure if they did a shitty job on them or if the corn syrup ones actually do taste better ... Retro Mountain Dew is awful. Mexican (cane sugar) Coke I like. |

The wonderful education system in Singapore will not allow a high IQ father remove his child prodigy genius from useless primary school and move him to the university where he won't be bored to tears: https://youtu.be/Z32NnlIpsz8?t=1853Btw, interesting what has transpired since: The family live in an apartment in Kuala Lumpur, where Ainan is in Taylor University’s American Degree Transfer Programme, which allows for flexible, broad-based learning. He is majoring in the sciences but doing everything from computer programming to theatre. Last year, he composed the score for a 15-minute short film for a film festival.
Mr Cawley has learnt a lesson from his son not to “regiment” him. The boy began composing at six but when his parents arranged music lessons for him, he “wouldn’t touch the piano for the next six years”, says dad.
Ainan says: “I do not enjoy rigorous and repetitive training, which was the way I was being taught then.”
Here’s a video of him as a teenager being bored to tears (until he starts goofing off with his brothers):
Watch the video in the quoted blog above, they had to leave Singapore to find him a proper education environment. He is asking for an American university to extend him an offer. If anyone can help, sounds like a waste that he isn't being challenged enough on the thinking aspect. Met Paul Cheng, this Singaporean American on a flight. All he does now is help young foreign kids find higher education opportunities in the States. Let me find his card... |

Everything is good now.
Hey there, Glad to know everything is good now, but what happened? This thread is very little active so you didn't get an answer here I guess. But did it just fixed itself after 1 month? xD I mean I know tx can take some time but that is a bit too long, did you get an answer on the site? Did they compensate the freaking 1 month delay??? Anykind of details on customer services is always nice  Original withdrawal never confirmed, emailed them after a month, they manually restored my account balance, I got to make a withdrawal again and this time after a few hours the withdrawal went through. So it's just that they're not active here and you took time before contacting them on other way? It's not them who took a month to answer? If that's the case I guess it's a rather good way to handle your problem. Just good to know that it's useless to come talking here and you have to contact them directly on the site. Thanks for the feedback  Not exactly. I emailed them within the month on the same support email thread and they never responded, possibly because it was marked as closed. I had to create a new support request before I was remedied. |

Lucky! I've been waiting nearly a month now and my tx (for a few bits) is still pending.

Is it possible to send an additional miner fee? This protocol is such a mess.
It's not possible at the moment, you will have to wait for the network to confirm.  What if the tx never confirms? Still waiting... Still stuck!! Hello... |
