  1. Could be, they say 50% to 60% will cash out on the Initial Rate!! An then another rate will follow!! This is what I have been told!!

    Oh Yota, OMG, you just made my day! Please, can you expand on the part, "50% to 60% will cash out on the Initial Rate." Whatever you've been told has been right on so far, so if you can share anything more with us it would be wonderful. Thank you Thank you Thank you for all you do. Bless you! :bow:

  2. Is Med a good guru???? Well, when compared to Okie, johnnywg, TerryK, Dan, Tony and so on and so on.... Yes, he's pretty good..... Med just reads articles and studies them and post's his interpretation..... Simple as that.... To blast him as some have done is not entirely justified.... He gives windows at times but he doesn't call it constantly like those previously listed....

    Good point...

  3. I think much of what Randy says makes sense. I think if we see the ministers seated and Kuwait paid their fair share, then we're probably looking at the RV within the next week or so. If not, then I think the Arab Summit will be put on hold and along with it, the RV. I simply don't see them having it without the RV. As for the $3.21 rate, I'm still with the 1:1 realistic rate. But I would love to be proved wrong on that! Either way, I think we're going to find out real soon...

    +1 to you for bringing the post here! Thanks...

  4. Hot pink..."I Chose Hot Pink".....I thought it looked brite...I'm color blind for goodness sakes and should never go to the color chart...I can't stop laughing..:lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: ..L wasn't awake when I typed it...I chose hot pink....:lol: :lol: :lol: ..now that's funny. No more color chart for me......:angry:

    I love the hot pink, so don't you dare stop! And he's right, it does make it easier to see the interesting parts. And, BTW, thanks for always keeping the positive spin on things. It helps me to stay positive too. Plus + to you for that... :tiphat:

  5. Stryker365, Stryker365, Stryker365 :twothumbs:

    Yes yes a million times yes. I love the synopsis. I totally agree. Plus 1 to ya. If i could give more I would. You are so right. We are there. They start spending money from the budget, and wa hoo. I bet they have to spend some for security for the summit and they are doing it quietly. But, I did read that all preparations for the summit will be done by mid month.

    I second your yes yes another million times! All prep finished by mid month you say? Interesting...Mid month is when Maliki goes to Kuwait for a quick visit and Talibani returns from the US. Sounds like good timing to me for the perfect RV! and a plus 1 to ya for a great post :twothumbs:

  6. "With respect to the news and all of the positive things going on behind the scenes we know about, March is looking better and better as the days move forward."

    I believe the exact opposite of this. Time is running out quickly for March. An RV takes time to settle down after, and if they're to do it before the Summit, they need to move by next Thursday.

    We have seen so much falling into place these past few weeks, people actually showing up for the meetings, laws being passed. Now, with Kuwait almost a done deal, and if they're ready to announce the ministers, we should be on the brink of the RV happening. I also agree that it needs to happen by next Thursday if March is their timeline. Maybe that's why Talibani is going back on the 14th? I think we can expect the RV anytime around Maliki's visit to Kuwait next week. And that would make for a nice little party on the 29th... ;)

    Great post, Seetrader... Thanks for bringing it, regardless where you had to post it... :D

  7. Anti-*** wave of violence claims 42 lives in a month

    08/03/2012 16:52

    EBRIL, March 8 (AKnews) - A wave of anti-*** killings has left 42 men and women dead within a month, according to human rights groups.

    Iraqis thought to act or look like homosexuals are being hunted down and murdered in Baghdad and Basra, with acts as extreme as smashing concrete blocks over their heads or pushing them off the roof of a building.

    The situation has escalated since the first killing on February 6. 42 men and women are believed to have been kidnapped, tortured and murdered, according to the Organization of Women’s Freedom in Iraq and the Iraqi LGBT.

    The groups report that the most common methods involve concrete blocks but some have also been dismembered or pushed off roofs.

    The attacks began earlier last month when unidentified, Shiite militant groups posted lists of names and ages on the several walls in the Sadr City neighborhood, in Habibea.

    Believing the listed members to be *** or lesbian, they were accused of being "adulterous individuals" and given four days to change their ways or face the wrath of Allah.

    In April of 2009, six men were killed under circumstances that appeared to be hate-crimes against homosexuals.

    In the same month, a group known as 'Fazilat' (Virtue) posted lists targeting people identified as *** on the walls of the Sadr City neighborhood, threatening death and stating "we will soon punish all you perverts".

    Cary Alan Johnson, Executive Director of the International *** and Lesbian Human Rights Commission, said : "There are no excuses for such heinous human rights violations.

    "We demand that the Iraqi Government put a stop to the wanton persecution and killing of *** people, and that the perpetrators punished."

    This infuriates me... that people could be so cruel to someone because of their sexual preferences. It's right up there with the Salem witch trials! May God have mercy on THEIR souls for THEY are the offenders, not the innocent people! The people doing this are just looking for some kind, any kind, of reason to torture people.

  8. Why? It is the Budget of 2012!! What? I may be wrong but i believe Iraq been running on Credit, they can start to pay some Folks, and this when they hit the Button!! IMO

    And the more they pay, the better they look at their come-out party on the 29th... I agree with you, you're onto something here, Yota! Thanks for the post and all you do here. :twothumbs:

    2.

    Thanks Yota, great job of finding this! This sounds great. Now if they'll just hurry and post it in the Gazette!

    BTW, have you heard anymore from your 'news friend' that calls you late at night???

  10. It gets better guys. Here's his latest:

    3-7-2012 Gurus OkieOilMan/Bulldog75 WE MENTIONED TO YOU SEVERAL TIMES WE WOULD HAVE THE RATE AND DATE BEFORE THE BANKS WOULD POST. $12.36 USD IS THE IQD RATE. THIS SHOULD POST, IMHO & OKIE'S, SOMETIMES TOMORROW, THURSDAY. NO ONE WILL OFFICIALLY SEE THE RATE POST POSTED UNTIL SOMETIMES TOMORROW.

    Lighten up fellas and enjoy the laugh, we all know Okie is full of it. He's staying consistent with the $12.36 though, so apparently that little wheel he spins to determine the rate is sticking. lol And personally, I think he's funny! It's like reading the comics. :lol:

    and a + to the one that brought me the laugh this morning! Thanks for the post

  11. ***///

    As for Okie, he's just Okie, dumber than a skunk and stinks the place up twice as bad.

  13. Welcome to the forum. And, by the way, you are 100% right !!!! We are a great group, and with the addition of a SweetyBird we are going to be a lot ... ah ... sweeter!

    You have just become part of a bunch of investors who, though serious about their investment and the RV, are also serious about a lot of other things (i.e. religion and politics and the occasion conspiracy theory to name just a few). But we are also the sharingest bunch of people you'll find in a long while. We share humorous stories, real and fictional. We share stories of our encounters with dinar bankers, banks, investment opportunities and How to Cook and Peel a Perfect Hard Boiled Egg, and invite you to share your recipes in our recipe forum. We share inspiration and conversation. We never stint on sharing pictures and ideas.

    You will, we hope, find us a diversified group of unique personalities who will offer whatever help we can if help is what you need. Personally I have never seen such a group of well intentioned strangers who treat even newbees as long time friends. Requests for a prayer to help a specific person or situation always receive an abundance of responses.

    As you get to know more of us, and more about us, you may be surprised to find out just how far our experiences stretch, how deep our commitments may go, and how wide our influence can be.

    So, again, welcome. It may be a short ride, but a good one. Actually, the shorter the ride from here, the better ...

    :)

    smee2

    Thanks Smee2! I am very happy to a part of this group. And I love to cook, so I'll be in that recipe group for sure! I have a chocolate cherry bar recipe that's to die for! I'll be glad to share it.

  14. I found this, but don't know how reliable it is. But check his return date; March12. Sounds like he's determined to be at the summit

    President Talabani will return from U.S. before Arab Summit

    President Talabani will return from U.S. before Arab Summit

    PUKmedia 07-03-2012 13:36:05

    A close source to the Iraqi President Jalal Talabani, denied news published by some local media about the existence of pressure on the President to give up the presidency of the Iraqi delegation to upcoming Arab summit scheduled to be held at the end of this month in Baghdad.

    The source in a press statement said that President Talabani will travel to the United States to carry out some medical tests in Mayo Click to be assured of his health after recent surgery he underwent in Germany , but he clarified that the President will return to Iraq in March 12 , in order to chair Iraq delegation to Baghdad Summit.

  15. Sounds great. I do like Kaperoni. He seems to know his stuff, and he does'nt throw our rediculous rates. Actually, there was an link to a Kaperoni chat on here a few days ago and I listened to it; 2 hours long but very interesting. I've tried to find it to send to a friend and can't locate it. Seems like Easyrider or Stryker had put the link in. If anyone knows where I could locate it, I'd appreciate your help in finding it. I've looked for it today but don't know my way around here very well yet. Thanks for all y'alls patience with a newbie...
