I remember Carl Sagen predicting this years ago.  Rubys and emeralds are

far more rare than DeBeers price-fixed diamonds.

The strawman was a big old guy
who walked with a puff and a sigh.
He swayed in the wind you could say,
looked a lot like Buffet in a way.

A poke from the right to see him run,
this was great strawman fun.
A shove from the left to see him fall,
it made the pokers feel real tall.

Soon he’d go splat on his face,
as if he was wearing nothing but lace.
They dance and sing at the fallen man,
as if they had torn down Putin man.

But sadly they destroyed just a wisp,
someone who limped, talked with a lisp,
ate ice cream for the paparazzi,
no cabal was he, not even a nazi.

Buffet went down without a cry,
he was made of straw that was very dry.
He never fought back, he had no voice,
he was the obvious patsy of choice.

I’m off for dinner with e_e, soee, eeos and dusty.  Soee is providing beer and pizza, and I’m bringing a bottle of Call Ila, a great and rare whisky.  We’ll be toasting the Tent and all you great posters!  A great place,  for sure.

“In the December 27 session on the TOCOM Goldman Sachs COVERED an astonishing 1,722 short contracts and went long 2 contracts to bring their net short to 6364 contracts. This is the LOWEST net short position they have ever held since I have been tracking their position in January 2006.  Look at the chart of their net short position. It is quite a sight for sore eyes. Yesterday I hypothesized that the gold price would explode when GS has completely covered or is net long. I estimated this would be between March and July but at this rate it could be in January. This is a gob-smacking rate of covering. This is signs of severe stress in the Gold Cartel. This comes at a time when Anglogold announced they are closing out their hedge book to zero. I long ago stopped believing in coincidences in the gold world. The lid is about to blow off this pressure cooker. This is NOT an arbitrage play as some have suggested. Stay tuned.”

You can Google Martin and see what if anything has happened since his scheduled hearing last spring.  To find out about Monaco and the bank you reference, go to DarkBlackLies.com and download ‘The Secret Gold Treaty’.  It doesn’t mention MA but what it does describe about underworld gold dealings will suggest, with significant documentation, what is really going on in the gold world.  Which is why he can’t get out of a jail in the Land of the Free.

US court rejects ex-trader’s 7-year contempt case
Mon Oct 29, 2007 10:32am EDT
WASHINGTON, Oct 29 (Reuters)- The U.S. Supreme Court rejected on Monday an appeal by former trader and financial adviser Martin Armstrong, who had been jailed for more than seven years for contempt of court.
“This case involves fundamental questions about the power of a federal district court to impose a term of indefinite incarceration as a sanction for civil contempt,” his attorneys said in the appeal, asking the Supreme Court to hear the case.
“Armstrong’s seven-year detention is virtually unprecedented in American history,” they said, arguing his confinement violated the Recalcitrant Witness Statute, the Non-Detention Act and his constitutional due process rights.
Armstrong, the founder of economic forecasting firm Princeton Economics International, was held in a Manhattan jail from January 2000 until April 27, when a federal judge ended the contempt proceeding because it no longer was serving its purpose.
Armstrong was jailed after failing to produce millions of dollars in gold and antiquities related to a civil lawsuit brought by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission and the Commodity Futures Trading Commission. He long argued that he did not have the items the government was seeking.
In August last year, Armstrong pleaded guilty to a separate criminal charge of conspiracy to commit fraud. At sentencing in April, he was given five years in prison, and the judge said Armstrong would not get credit for the time he already had spent in jail.
In appealing to the Supreme Court, Armstrong’s attorneys said the appeals courts are in conflict on whether the Recalcitrant Witness Statute applied to corporate custodians ordered to turn over potentially incriminating evidence.
They said a judge may not imprison someone for more than seven years, when there has been no finding that further incarceration will produce compliance.
The U.S. Justice Department opposed the appeal. It said the U.S. appeals court decision in the case was correct, and did not conflict with any ruling by the Supreme Court or another appeals court.
Department lawyers said Armstrong’s case would be a “poor vehicle” for considering his claims because his confinement for civil contempt had ended.

…82 year old and He finally sucumbed to the dark Side….

When strawman polls are set up, then you are going to get squirrelly votes. Squirrels love straw.

to that Armstrong guy? The one who went to jail because he wouldn’t tell the judge where the gold was hidden. Wasn’t he going to spill the beans about the B of NY’s gold operations and shed some light on why that banker was killed in Monico?

and to the rest of this great group. this is sweet. a little patience and perseverance is all we needed. good luck to all.
