This story adds new meaning to the term "Sleep-Number Bed". Your sleep-number is based upon how much currency you can pack into your mattress ... for comfort. (I loved the Zero-Hedge referring to the mattress as Banco Posturepedico). http://www.zerohedge.com/contributed/2013-03-30/canadian-government-offers-bail-regime-prepares-confiscation-bank-deposits-ba

The market is definitely NOT at a record high. Currencies are at a record low. Our "money" is all make-believe.

Jonjon, thanks much for an informative post.

"This is what passes for monetary real-politik in the New Normal - an entire nation becomes collateral when pursuing a wealthy group of people. And the "wealthy group" is victorious in the end despite everything..." http://www.zerohedge.com/news/2013-03-25/have-russians-already-quietly-withdrawn-all-their-cash-cyprus

If this is legit, this is not only big ... it is HUMUNGOUSLY life-changing for earthlings. This lady, along with the pope, has most earthlings held as collateral .... in their fictitious world .... where money equals debt and debt equals money. Times .... they are a' changin'.

"Know" - no argument from me.

OK, Mark, thanks. So now I know that ALL Opinions ... not just those of the Iraqi Dinar ... are the perfect place for this topic.

An associate of mine who is a member of a firm that uses an eWallet service just tried to load some funds onto an international bank debit card. The card-load has always worked, like clockwork, with immediate load. Today, not so. The funds are pending. +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ This is the message on the site: 4/17/2012 2:21:08 PM Currently, eWallet transfers to banks outside the USA and Canada in USD currency are temporarily unavailable.

How TRUE !! Rethink what Gymrat said. They are "on purpose".

Which Maggie?

Hugh - This topic deserves a as it seemed to have gotten lost in the more mundane matters after you posted it on Saturday.

WOWZERS!!! is right. Prof. Noble left out a word .... enslaved.

I recommend that you read the Jesuit Extreme Oath of Induction after clicking on Brandy's link .. then do this google search "dirty war argentina" . A very interesting world of information shall be opened unto you.

It's rumored that this thread should be placed in the rumor section, not in the section "where gurus are born."

Hmmm, I might have predicted wrong. Here is an ABC link: http://abcnews.go.com/International/pope-faces-accusations-argentinas-dirty-war/story?id=18745535

Yup, I would agree ... it is a test run. And it does not bode well for the people, as usual. Now watch the mainstream media chastise the Greek people while the bankster-perps and their political minions get praised for their bold actions. The canary in the coal mine is gasping for oxygen. Sad. http://greece.greekreporter.com/2013/03/16/bailout-cuts-cyprus-bank-accounts-withdrawals-barred/

Wow, when I first saw this topic that started with SWFG, I thought that "SWFG" meant the somebody was making a "Scientific Wild-arsed Frigging Guess" about a rate or a date or some such thing. Nothing like that at all. Awesome writing, SW Florida Guy!

I don't expect it to be "sorted out" very soon. The 16-yr-old was shot eleven times (3 in the back). So it remains to be seen who was (were) the gang member(s).

Thanks KK. I think LIB is on Long Island, and hopefully will be able to give some local knowledge about this.

I just heard about this. Anybody know with firsthand knowledge about this??? Will appreciate your views. Thanks. This google search link was spawned by me because I heard a "little something" and decided to try to validate. I could not believe the links that I found for the search terms: "brooklyn martial law": Google search "brooklyn martial law" https://www.google.com/#hl=en&sclient=psy-ab&q=brooklyn+martial+law&oq=brooklyn+martial+law&gs_l=hp.12..0i22i30.1243.10278.0.14311.20.15.0.5.5.0.263.2015.5j7j3.15.0.les%3B..0.0...1c.1.6.psy-ab.2o2m_ca-V4k&pbx=1&bav=on.2,or.r_qf.&bvm=bv.43828540,d.b2U&fp=aaeba9b7f058e829&biw=1366&bih=622

Umbertino, I will make a judgment and a prediction about this story: Judgment: IMO, this story should "grow legs." Prediction: It won't. Thanks for the post.

Very good post, Brandy. The shackles of commerce are what has turned us into debt slaves. This is a very good approach to rebuilding our communities and freeing the people from those shackles. Thanks.

Look up: normalcy bias. The following is a great layman's explanation of why people have their head where the sun does not shine. http://daily-survival.blogspot.com/2011/10/overcome-your-normalcy-bias.html

Sheriff Richard Mack is an American hero. He leads the Constitutional Sheriffs and Peace Officers Association (cspoa.org). Having attended one of their conventions, the organization is gaining a foothold, and their conventions give us a ray of hope ... they are impressive. It disturbs me that there are around 95% of the county sheriffs that are yet to join the CSPOA. There are over 6000 county sheriffs, and most of them are running around acting as minions for the banksters violating the constitutonally-guaranteed rights of the people. Is your sheriff a member of CSPOA? If not, ask him/her why not.
