Still hopefull that it will, it's a ponzi but a good one, an good ones last a while Smiley

Good ponzi scheme. You just invented a new kind of business.
It lasted a while already , I'm surprised it did so for more than one week.

I think that for every guy that comes here and says it has lost 1$ there are 10 who lost 10$.

Also , I bet that 50% of the ones that said that they ended in profit are actually crying for their lost money;).

Not saying this happened here...but don't cops have a habit of "finding" things when they need to.

I propose a situation whereby they were tipped off and did raid his home, found nothing and knew after all the recent lashing out at police tactics  they would be in a difficult position since they just broke into his home with flimsy probable cause. A deal was made which benefited the guy and so the sentence was conveniently "suspended".

I don't know much about your legal system, but is this a possibility?

It's far more possible that a former MJ dealer had some drugs in his house isn't it?

Let's be honest , guys dealing in illegal drugs don't suddenly turn into angels.

Let's now talk about a 5 year period. Do you agree with my figures?

Why?
The discussion started with this year.
The fall is because of the sanctions and the weakening economy.

We could start talking about 20 years in the past or 1000 but that wouldn't be about the current situation.

The the picture now is that barney is falling from its dino like a stone.

525  Other / Politics & Society / Re: Donetsk, Kharkov, Lugansk - way to Russia. on: September 16, 2014, 09:22:13 AM

I see that you go nitpicking? Well then, but how can you talk about this year and mean 52 week rate?

Because most of the statistics are done for the period of the last 52 weeks. Few care about the 1st of January to current date period and more use 52weeks as "this year".
Nope, read some financial news, e.g. Bloomberg.com
This year means "since the start of this year": "Ruble has lost 20% this year".
52w is usually something like "in the last/past year": "Ruble has lost 20% in the last year".

I already said how much the rubble has lost from both the 1st of January and in the 52w period.
It's comes in both cases close to 20%.

But if you claim it's only the dollar that is growing...

Lol, if so, why then do you give a start date in your link to the rate statistics as of January 1, 2014? Also, what barney are you talking about? Perhaps, you meant barley? No, I don't eat barley (so I don't care what its price is)...

I wish they'd lock all those mariwane druggies up and throw away the keys. I don't know why they can't just drink whiskey like the rest of us. Whiskey never causes all the problems those druggie perverts have. I don't know why they didn't just shoot em' while they had the chance! They brought enough guns to solve the problem. Shoot their friggin kids too. They'll just grow up to live on welfare and take drugs anyway. Now the rest of us GOD fearin', church goin' folks are gonna have to pay to keep that worthless pervert locked up. They should just ship em' all to the state o' Mariurado so we don't have to pay for em'.


This sounds like a joke but I know people that think this way. One of them is a true drunken wife beater that is actually brave enough to show up at church on Sunday morning escorting a wife with a black eye.

I feel that way for crimes against children, violent crimes, or crimes committed with weapons of any kind if stated in an intelligent manner minus the "Skydaddy" addition.

Back on topic, you don't get much dumber than having been previously been busted for a grow operation knowing damn well your heat signature from an airborne thermal cam can be seen from 3000 meters as well as you electricity usage screaming you're at it again, even if it is something benign. Even dumber was having MJ present under those circumstances period.

This guy was stupid.

Stupidity cost him.

I think raiding the house with a large armed tactical squad wielding assault rifles may be over doing it a bit. That looks like the ground troops that were used on the raid of Osama bin Laden's compound. If they were afraid to knock on the door they should have just used a Pyros small tactical munition fired from a sentinel drone.

Russia reserves        $400 billion

You mean oil? US has 30.5 billion barrels of oil in reserve. A barrel of oil is about $96 right now. You do the math.

BTW, Russia controls its own Central Bank & you can see it can but it doesn't have to print money like what the American Fed does because its coffers is still full

Actually, they don't print money like what the America Fed does, because russian ruble is already down 30% this year! They have enough inflation without printing any more money.

Get you facts straight, man! I understand that you aren't on short terms with either logic or mathematics (as many Ukrainians aren't), but you could at lest look at the statistics. The US dollar is now only a few percent higher than it was in 2009. Also note that today the Central bank doesn't intervene in the foreign exchange market...

He said THIS year.
This year the ruble highest was at 32.
It's down to 38.88.

If we count the 52 week period we see that it's down from 31.5164 to 38.8865.

http://mfd.ru/currency/?currency=USD&currencyCompare=&from=01.01.2014&till=

Okay, let's calculate again. Exactly 52 weeks ago the US dollar cost 32.7406 roubles (as of 14.09.2013, Friday). Right now it costs 38.733, which gives (38.733 - 32.7406) / 32.7406 * 100 = 18.30%. Any more questions?

Yup. It's a 18% drop considered "only a few percent higher". As you said before?

Only a few percent higher from its previous high which was in 2009, how did you read? If you take into account that inflation in Russia is (said to be) higher than in the USA, we likely haven't yet reached ATH (though we should be near)...

I read the same way as you did.
When he said this year you talked about 2009. So I'm doing the same right now.
You talk about 2009 I talk about 2014 Wink.

But why is barney dropping? Shouldn't the sanctions against the eu food have sent the euro to hell?
Inflation? In the richest country in the world? According to mymyohmy the russian economy should be stronger that the entire galaxy put together .

Pure curiosity , is there somebody that can post the prices for fresh (not refrigerated) salmon in their countries ?
I'm sure Nemo can give some hint to Norway or Russia prices but the rest?

Picking some at the market yesterday I have a feeling we pay the most.
I paid around 15 euros per kilo at Auchan yesterday.

Fresh as in swimming in an aquarium at the store? Or fresh as in refrigerated, but never frozen?

Nor frozen, only refrigerated.
I've never seen really fresh salmon (living) in markets around here.

I'd be so pissed if they broke into my house with loaded weapons simply because the electric company gave them a "tip".    Those rat bastards got their money for the bill but then ratted him out.  It isn't their job to report electricity use to the police, their not cops, that guy should be suing them and the cops.  Cops are to lazy to do any kind of investigation and just kick in doors from miscellaneous tips.  What did they find computers and some weed, tax dollars well spent I'd say.
You need to remember the police did not simply break into the person's house. They came with a warrant. There is a huge difference between the two. A search warrant is given by a neutral judge who can see that there is probable cause that a crime has been committed.

I know all to well how a raid works, no need to explain.  I may have jumped the gun a little bit(pun intended).  My issue is police many times have raided a persons home that has done no crime based on a bad tip.  People have gotten killed because of the poorly planned raids.  For me that is a problem I don't know why people can accept that kind of action,  What would everyone say if they guy got shot dead?  You need to put yourself in the position of the cops and the miner.  The cops could have easily spent time watching the house for obvious activity of marijuana growing but they didn't.

In order for the police to be able to present information from a "tip" the person giving the tip needs to be known to the police (they need to know their identity) and the person needs to be credible.

I am not 100% sure what exactly would be visible from the street when someone is growing drugs from inside a house, but I would think it would be very little if anything at all. I would think that the drug growers could easily do everything they needed to do behind closed doors, and just because they are growing drugs at the house does not mean they would be selling drugs out of the house.

The judge also disagreed that the police should have watched for more evidence as he signed the search warrant. 

Use one of those :

537  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: [ANN][DOGE] Dogecoin - very currency many coin - v1.8 Required Update on: September 14, 2014, 06:04:51 PM
As I said in my edit , the miners will soon receive a reward that is less and less in % compared to the total supply.
Meaning that the impact of mining on the coin price will be minimal.

What will happen then? A price rise? Why? Because the coins are harder to get?
There are a lot of examples who said this is not the case. What will doge build upon ?

Usage and community of course. That's why I'm seeing this as a pump and  something temporary and I'm no inclined to buy more but neither to sell.

Miners have to run those ASICs for Litecoins or any other scrypt coin and merge mine Doges without wasting any additional power. Even if block reward is 1 doge per block, the hashrate will from now on be equal or very close to hashrate of Litecoin. Network is secured. Doge excels in everything else. The Gresham law will make miners hodl rising Doge and sell depreciating Litecoin.

Sure, this is a temporary pump, too fast and too violent, it will settle down somewhat and then resume.

EDIT: Hashrate is 695 GH/s now, Litecoin's is 800-850, so getting very close.

Are you blind?
If litecoin fails miners will have no incentive to run their rigs for 1 dogetoshi.
The network is by no means secure. It relies one the profitability of other coins. If those turn to dust so does doge mining and the network security.

Please stop with the race against LTC.

Why? Only one of them will survive and will be kept long term by miners, the other one will be dumped to cover the cost of ASICs and electricity. It's a race between them now to be one or the other. There is no room for 2 Scrypt coins. I am just stating my observations, why are you so afraid of that?

One can argue that there is no room for more than one crypto. And please don't even think of.....

I am indeed afraid. Of a new hype that is born out of mining reasons.
I would love to see doge gaining because of the events like in January - February rater than on accounts of mining.

Because mining will soon be over and what will remain?
When I said it will be over it will mean that reward will be negligible

This is what she said:
We should invade their countries, kill their leaders and convert them to Christianity. We weren't punctilious about locating and punishing only Hitler and his top officers. We carpet-bombed German cities; we killed civilians. That's war. And this is war.



http://www.washingtonmonthly.com/features/2001/0111.coulterwisdom.html

I'm guessing she's unaware that Hitler and his army were catholic, or do they not count as Christian anymore?  Just goes to show you what God's will can do to a fella (just look what it does to Coulter.)  You know, the devil would have a much easier time convincing people to do evil if he wore a cross, carried a Bible and proselytized his own spin on the word of Christ.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Religious_views_of_Adolf_Hitler

Hitler was hardly what you call catholic.
Also there are far more protestants in Germany that Catholics.
