Service got a bunch of double spent attacks, so a lot of transactions was stuck during this time, and I was mostly away last month because of illness. Now everything works fine, except one thing — payouts are not instant anymore.

No offence but to me sounds like your running a bitcoin business being non solvent just like mtgox,  Plus I seeen many scam accusations about not paying forum advertisers.  Its very petty for you invest 25000 usd, then to let everything fall due to an illness which you never elaboratley explained to any of the members.

I have an idea on how to stop greed on alt coins in general, thats why these coins fail. before the greedy bastards came in there were nothing but geeks having fun with bitcoin and mining for fun, not for profit. 

once bitcoin became worth real money, things done changed.

yyeah but see what help bitcoin is was it adapted way before the greed factor came in, once a new alt coin is introduced, the whales come in and start mining and dumping, so hence forth the greed factor is introduced before it had time to be adapted.

I specifically said I would be happy to see my own taxes go up a bit to help defray the costs.

Personally, I have no problem accepting any kids into this country--they don't even have be white Europeans as some in the south believe are the only human beings fit for immigration. Black, brown, red, yellow, I'm fine with ALL kids. And I am happy to see my taxes go up a tad to support them.
A bit.  My aren't you generous given you know it will amount to a couple more bucks at your income level.  Yeah, that ought to cover tens of thousands of kids from cradle to grave on top of the trillions in unfunded liabilities for which we have no way to pay.

He has been previously banned but I can't tell you if he is currently banned. Maybe BadBear can help you out on that, but he probably is since he hasn't posted or logged on since the 15th of last month.

Yeah sure looks like he was banned according to the Op posted in this thread, it would be nice if there was database of banned members so we can search to see or they get a ban tag on there profile.

to be honest, this sort of advertising only works good for long term campaign advertising, if you do a short with small limits, your not going to see any fast results.  It goes the same with all forms of advertising.  Your wasting time I tell you if your doing this short term and limit the amount of posts like this.

So what I'm hearing on the ground, and probably news reports I haven't seen because I've been busy...


Saudi Arabia is buying oil from ISIS, Qatar is buying oil from Al Nusra, Turkey is supporting a separate Kurdistan...in the former Iraq area...The US spy services had no idea whats his face was giving a speech in the new Islamic state...and I'm somewhat surprised.


My own belief is that the US could resolve most of this at a table with the principals...al-Malicki, Saudi Arabia, Qatar, and whoever else may be required. Simply put, a good enough threat stops the killing mostly, and lays out a future. I dunno what exactly, because the people there need to have their own answer. But I seriously doubt many there would seriously tell the US to piss off if they felt there was a serious line. Now I know that's unlikely, but what's your opinion on what is going on. This entire fiasco makes little sense to me.


I can see it if I thought the Israeli's were trying to make the best of a situation they couldn't control, but I hesitate to believe that Israel has that much control given the current admin's general reaction to Israel.

Whatcha got that I'm missing, because I just don't see whose hand is controlling.

There's this thing called division of labor, where we assign to those best suited to deal with an issue the responsibility for dealing with that issue: whether the Presidency, flipping a hamburger at mickeyd's, or arranging for the organization and care of a large number of refugees. Perhaps if you had the least concept of social responsibility, you would understand that taking care of your own in Honduras isn't quite the same thing as the former.
Steller job of irony.  The point, you bloviating stoner, is that you never do any of the labor from your "job" as an arm chair bitcher as you live your selfish little tiny life of self indulgence.  This is the leftist manifesto to NEVER take any personal responsibility and tear down anyone who actually does. 


The majority of these kids have no rosy future here...they will be an underclass at best.  Exactly the way you leftist blowhards like it.  Kindly spare us your sanctimony that this is about the children.  You don't have the first clue about raising projective future citizens because living underground or off entitlements or stacked up in institutions or foster care ain't it. 
lol, I will happily plead guilty to taking no responsibility. And I compensate society accordingly for the opportunities it has provided me.
But until you elect me dictator, I don't have the responsibility for solving this or any other problem on my own. That is what society is about.
And you know, part of the difference I notice between liberals and conservatives is that liberals, including myself, are charitable, but don't use it as an excuse to avoid our social obligations and responsibilities. You guys constantly, CONSTANTLY, feel the need to tell us about your good works, as though that somehow justifies your filthy opinions otherwise, and as though liberals ONLY paid taxes and didn't give their time and money as well.

Since we know that to be untrue then one can only conclude that your need to pat yourself on your back goes beyond your understanding that those of us who believe in social altruism are likely in fact to engage in it as much as or more than thee.
And since we all know you make ridiculous crap up about the south on a regular basis, thanks for making it clear you have no actual rebut of what is true about Obama or this mess he created either. You know the man is full of crap, incompetent, and shill for big money.  The only reason you even bother to defend him is because he is a leftist wet dreamer. 
 CLASSIC leftist who only makes himself feel better by claiming to care about the kids you will never do a damn thing about personally.

The worst thing I ever felt about Obama was when I heard about that sentence in his memoirs, "I chose my friends very carefully..." Even at a young age, due to his background, he was lived a life of self-repression, where he had to behave in certain ways to keep in good with the eyes of others...carefully choosing his friends to make sure that his persona didn't suffer in the eyes of those who mattered.


Why?  Why would that bit of self-revelation make you react with 'the worst I ever felt' about him?

Does not surprise me in the least that this man considering his childhood and his circumstances, starting out from his first breath as an 'other' no matter which culture he found himself in, (black child in a white world, then black child in Indonesia, then black in a white world again)...would defend himself by finding a way to fit.  Indeed, a way that could elevate him, eventually, within the dominant group, not only to equal footing - but possibly above and beyond it.  Overachieving and ingratiating himself was what he chose - with a few spates of rebellion.  I think the 'passion' you believe is missing is there; it simmers underneath.  

According to his memoirs, Obama's mother was also acutely aware of what Barack needed to do to compete...and drilled him relentlessly...those 5 am lessons before school.  It was her way of preparing him and protecting him.

So yes he frustrates me too.  I want to see more fire.  But, fire isn't what we're going to get, not consistently anyway.   I understand it and have adjusted to it.  Bottom line, I think he's a good guy and a good president.    
Personally, I believe a woman who abandoned him and sent him off to his grandparents, barely ever to see him again, is unlikely to have 'drilled' 5:00 a.m. lessons, especially about our Constitution, into him. 

I believe most of what he wrote about himself were 100% lies.
That is the perfect example of what I was talking about on the other thread about his terrible poll numbers.  It is mind blowing just how much smoke his people are willing to have blown up their ass.
What is "the perfect example"?   My post wasn't about "polls", it was a specific response to novi's comment. 
Speaking of blowing smoke up someone's ass, you really should give up on blowing yours up mine, which you seem determined to do.  Just accept that it's not going to happen.

Its amazing to watch these moon bats try to defend immigrants who have broke the law. Hence the term "illegal immigrant" which they have tried so hard to totally eliminate from our vocabulary by making it a politically incorrect term although it exact in its description.

Are we a land that believes in the "rule of law" or not? Under Obama it appears to be the latter. He seems to think that he should be able to ignore any law with which he does not agree. And since he is unable to get the democratically elected Congress to agree with him, he takes the law into his own hands or totally ignores the law.

Both Obama and Holder should be in jail cell right now.
You ignore the thousands of convicted sexual predators that illegally cross the border and victimize Americans and instead opt to debate the use of legal terminology versus the pretty language lefties prefer and then claim you want to have an honest debate about illegal immigrants? Pathetic , simply pathetic.

Remember Chandra Levy? She is just one of thousands that would be alive today if our immigration laws were enforced, but the left seems to ignore these victims preferring to defend the illegal aliens who commit the crimes instead of the American victims of those crimes.

http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-srv/metro/specials/chandra/ch6_1.html

While D.C. police focused most of their investigative efforts on Rep. Gary Condit and his relationship to missing intern Chandra Levy, they were slow to recognize another lead. It involved a man who was attacking women in the woods of Rock Creek Park.

The day Chandra disappeared, May 1, 2001, Ingmar A. Guandique, a 19-year-old illegal Salvadoran immigrant, did not show up for his construction job. Around that time, he went to stay with his former landlady, Sheila Phillips Cruz, the manager of an apartment building on Somerset Place NW. Cruz noticed that Guandique looked like he had been in a bad fight, his face battered and bruised. He had a fat lip, a bloody blemish in his eye and scratches around his throat.

Guandique (pronounced GWAN-dee-keh) had come from a hard-scrabble hamlet near the city of San Miguel in El Salvador. His father was kidnapped by guerrillas during the Salvadoran civil war, before Guandique's birth in 1981, and later executed. The son grew up in an adobe house with a dirt floor, no running water and an open pit for cooking meals. The home was decorated with family photos and pictures of Jesus Christ and the Virgin Mary taped to pink and white sheets of plastic that served as wallpaper.

Guandique wanted a better life in America. A friend of the family lent him $5,000 to pay a "coyote" to smuggle him across the Texas border with more than 50 others. The seventh-grade dropout left home in January 2000, eventually swimming across the Rio Grande, crossing the border near Piedras Negras and arriving in Houston in March 2000. From there, he made his way to Washington to join his half-brother, Huber, and other family friends.

Within a month, Guandique began picking up day jobs on construction sites and sending small amounts of money back home. He also had financial obligations to the family that paid his way. And he had another obligation: his ex-girlfriend, who was pregnant when Guandique left and later gave birth to a boy.

In fall 2000, Guandique met a new girl, Iris Portillo. She was a tiny woman; even though she was a year older than Guandique, she looked 13. In early 2001, Guandique began to live with Portillo and her mother in their apartment on Somerset Place. The young couple took walks near the National Zoo and picnicked in Rock Creek Park. He was enamored with her. He bought her jewelry, including a ring at a Georgia Avenue pawn shop.

Back in the 70s when I was young, there was an acquaintance of mine who was a dental student who had a friend, who was an astrophysicist from Pepperdine.  He had a theory of a polar axis shift and that it occurs quite rapidly.   He said that is what explained the mammoth found in the artic with still undigested food in it's stomach, the Beresovka Mammoth.  Anyway, he said back then that it would occur soon, and would be cataclysmic.  Of course, "soon" is a relative term, so who knows what was meant, years, decades, centuries, within the next millennium.  Oh well, if it happens that way, just hold on and enjoy the ride....while you can!
We are about due for a pole reversal.  Australia has had the south to itself for long enough.
The only thing a magnetic pole reversal will do is change the directions on a compass.

Unless the Earth's axis tilt changes, or the Earth's orbit around the Sun changes, nothing significant will happen to the climate.
IT won't really change Earth's atmosphere, which is as important as Earth's magnetic field in relation to solar flares.

I doubt Israel is targeting civilians on purpose. Unfortunately, especially with airstrikes, there WILL be collateral damage. How about the Palestinians quit firing rockets at Israel. As long as they're doing that, I can't blame Israel for retaliating. If they stopped and Israel continued, then I would have a problem with that. This whole area is ready to explode, unfortunately. If those rockets don't stop, I'd bet that Israel launches a ground invasion. That would be truly tragic and many innocents will die then as well.

I think it's important to understand that the internet should not be dictated by Google. As this story shows, the information is still there, it's just Google hiding these results. And they control what they show you first and what not - now additionally some people can also control what results do not appear for them.

Time to start using other search engines in conjunction, or even as a complete alternative, to Google. Try Bing, or Yandex (for the Russian market) or even give DuckDuckGo a go.

The same goes for the maps, with OpenStreetMaps offering a modest alternative that does not rank its results based on whether they are paid advertisements or not.

Now to debate the issue raised above, while you lefties are whining about income disparity why are you promoting illegal immigration when the facts prove that it lowers wages across the board? Do you see the conflict there? Flooding the job market with cheap labor makes the rich richer and the middle class and poor poorer so why are you supporting greedy corps at the expense of Americas workers? Can you address that issue or is it still stupid for Americans to want a fair job market and wage increases? BTW I don't expect either of you to address the question because it would require an honest debate about the real factors regarding the costs to Americans. Once again the lefties side with greedy corps and conspire to keep workers wages down. And BTW driving up minimum wage only makes hiring illegal aliens under the table that much more attractive.
820  Other / Politics & Society / Re: Immigration: Myths and Misconceptions on: July 11, 2014, 09:00:11 AM
and so therefore they try to make it seem as if republicans are against immigration when they are against  ILLEGAL immigration... there is a bid difference.... 
So, you want illegal aliens sent back? That's a switch, I thought you wanted them rewarded with amnesty and a citizenship. BTW all those criminal sex offenders that crossed the border, do you think they'll apply for amnesty or continue to hide in the shadows? And with all those new amnesty papers how long do you think it will take those criminals to forge new papers in another name?
liberalism is indeed a mental illness.... the liberals are all for illegals... nancy pilosi welcomed them at the boarder... obama and the administration will not send anyone back, the liberals want to give them welfare and food stamps.... illegal immigrants have more rights than legal immigrants according the liberals.... the liberals don't give a shit about legal immigrants...
The above is what you call relevant and important to the issue of illegal immigration and below is what you call a stupid factor of illegal immigration and not worthy of debate. And you make that statement while claiming intellectual superiority when if fact the issues you raised are superficial and pointless and have little to do with the reasons we have immigration laws.
  $200 billion dollars per year in suppressed American wages are caused by the illegal aliens.http://transcripts.cnn.com/TRANscriptS/0604/01/ldt.01.html
