  1. Here's a pic of authentic 50 IQD note from the CBI website. Compare yours to theirs. I cannot comment on the serial numbers.
  2. Vanessa, I am only postulating here since I wasn't the one who closed the thread. But there have been a lot of ups and downs, some extreme, lately regarding rumors and "intel" that didn't pan out. Some people are getting pretty close to desperate. And when a recycled rumor comes about sometimes the mods make a personal decision to close the thread so as not to let undue speculation and emotion build up around something that has been knowingly debunked or has been hashed about before. Closing threads like this is a judgement call on behalf of the moderators of DV, folks whom Adam has chosen personally, to act in the best interest of the board, and likewise the people who post here. However, we are only human too, and subject to our own baggage and emotional mindset. Please remember that about us. Peace to you, and have a good day. ~uppy
  3. That's why you hired us, Adam. Aren't we supposed to be your butterers and fluffers?
  4. I'm thinking he was probably shooting for next week, but stay tuned for confirmation!
  5. As a mod, I want to tell you all what good hearts you have, and how happy I am to be a part of this group! And in the spirit of that respect I feel I need to tell you that the poster, bgergens, was a troll registered here under several names. He/she was IP banned today because of atrocious behavior. I know that all your prayers, support, and well-wishes however have been received by people who have needed them. God is good.
  6. Thanks for the second, dflake. We can always count on you to find it!! Glad you're back. You were missed!!!
  7. I'm still holding my breathe. Good thing blue is my color!
  8. Chickenlady, that's exactly what caused me to seriously start considering Adam's offshore plan. Now I feel more in control of my money. And I will pay ALL taxes due upon it when I bring it back onto US soil to be used.
  9. BAGHDAD, IRAQ : At least 7 people on Friday were killed and several wounded during the 'Day of rage' demonstrations in many cities of Iraq, Aswat al-Iraq news agency reported. Several Iraqi cities witnessed demonstrations of the so-called "The Iraqi Revolution" including Baghdad, Mosul, Falluja and Basra. The organizers used Facebook, Twitter and social websites to rally supporters. In Baghdad, hundreds of demonstrators rallied in al-Tahrir square to protest against bad services and corruption. The government imposed a a ban on vehicles and bikes in the Iraqi capital to avoid conflicts. However, in other cities demonstrations were not as peaceful. In Mosul, at least five people were killed and 15 injured in clashes that followed demonstrations off the Ninewa provincial building. Mosul, the capital city of the violence-ridden multi-ethnic province of Ninewa, witnessed violent confrontations as hundreds of protesters stormed the Ninewa provincial council building and then set it on fire. Security forces remained peaceful but a bomb was thrown at the demonstrators causing severe injuries to at least five people. As a result, the Ninewa Operations Command imposed a ban on vehicles in Mosul to protect protesters. In the oil-rich port city of Basra, 39 police officers were wounded during the demonstrations that called for the resignation of Governor Shaltagh Abboud. The Basra Operations Command announced a curfew starting from 4:00 p.m. local time until 6:00 a.m. Saturday. In Falluja, at least 16 protesters were injured in a random shooting by security forces after they stormed a government compound, which includes the mayoralty and the local council. The buildings were set ablaze in the predominantly Sunni city. Demonstrators also attempted to storm a local council in Soliman Bek district, northeast of Salah al-Din. However, security forces clashed with the approximately 250 protesters and five people were injured. Sajjad al-Assadi, a security committee official in the Thi-Qar Provincial Council accused the Baath Party of encouraging demonstrators to violence in order to sue them for their own interests. The official added that security forces detained three members of the disbanded party who were among the demonstrators enraging them. The Iraqi government was formed in December 2010, nine months after an inconclusive national election. This is the second elected government after the U.S.-led invasion that demoted former leader Saddam Hussein eight years ago. --BNO News http://www.newkerala.com/news/world/fullnews-155893.html
  10. There wouldn't happen to be a rate and date in there too?
  11. I'm waiting too. Do you think if I called and told them it would make any difference? I think maybe I'll go over and protest tomorrow. Anyone want to join me?
  12. Pourit, here is the link: http://dinarvets.com/vip/Platinum-VIP-offer.php Go there and follow the instructions. It should walk you through step by step.
  13. Iraqi PM to country: Stay away from Friday demo BAGHDAD — Iraqi Prime Minister Nouri al-Maliki is warning Iraqis not to take part in a planned anti-government protest Friday. He told Iraqis during the nationally televised address Thursday that followers of Saddam Hussein's regime might take advantage of the protest to create chaos. But he offered no proof for his claim. Iraqi officials watching events unfold in nearby Tunisia and Egypt have been on high alert ahead of the planned Friday protest, which has been billed as a "Day of Rage." Iraqis have held a number of small-scale, occasionally violent protests around the country demanding better government services, more assistance for widows and orphans and greater protection for human rights. THIS IS A BREAKING NEWS UPDATE. Check back soon for further information. AP's earlier story is below. BAGHDAD (AP) _ The Iraqi reporter arrested for throwing his shoes at former President George W. Bush has returned to the country for his first public visit since being freed from prison, and was forcibly detained for questioning Thursday by the Iraqi army. Muntadhar al-Zeidi became a celebrity in the Arab world after throwing his shoes at Bush during a news conference in December 2008 and calling him a dog. After being freed from an Iraqi prison in 2009 at the end of his nine-month sentence, he left the country and had not appeared publicly in Iraq since. One of al-Zeidi's brothers told The Associated Press that he returned Tuesday to join anti-government protests scheduled to take place all over Iraq on Friday. Iraqi officials are on high alert ahead of Friday's protests, which have been billed as a "Day of Rage." Iraqis have been holding a number of small-scale protests around the country to demand better government services, more assistance for widows and orphans and greater protection for human rights. Al-Zeidi left a mosque in a Sunni neighborhood of Baghdad Thursday and then visited a nearby cemetery. He was then confronted by an Iraqi army commander backed up by soldiers who said al-Zeidi should come with them for questioning.
  14. This article is from a month ago. I don't know who is bumping old news, but just don't want anyone getting excited thinking this is current.
  15. I thought you were talking about the US government!
  16. I'm moving your thread to the Warka Banking forum where there is greater liklihook of someone being able to help you.
  17. I don't object to the occassional use of profanity or slang to make a point. I DO object to misogynistic expressions that are used by people who believe that others are just over-reacting when they object. What is appropriate about referring to a man who is profiting from a woman's body, and then hitting her when she objects or speaks out? I do not think that falls under the category of descriptive slang. And though I'm a moderator who could, as requested by one poster, close this thread because of it's objectionable nature, I think my point would be better made by leaving it open. The concept of Freedom of Speech includes the freedom to use phrases that even a person in power may find distasteful.
  18. Right at the top of this forum. Closing thread. Gone off topic.
