Exactly! It's all a shell game for these guys and their accountants and lawyers.  :

His company, Berkshire pays him the $39 mil to report as taxable. all the while
Berkshire, cooking separate books, through corporate loopholes, pay only
around 2%..

Buffett is fond of saying his tax rate is lower than his secretary’s. He does not publicize his tax returns, but for the tax year 2010, he paid $6.9 million on taxable income of $39.8 million, according to partial disclosures he made in 2011.

What is astounding about those numbers is not the 17.3% tax rate, but that Buffett’s $39.8 million of taxable income is only about 0.05% of his reported net worth ($71 billion according to Forbes, which put him third on its list of the 400 wealthiest people in the world for 2015).

Proportionately, that’s like someone with an ever-expanding net worth, currently $10 million, reporting taxable income of only $5,000 and paying a federal tax bill of only $900.

i would be happy if sterling went back to $30 oz

silver cannot be mined profitably at the current price. True, if you read many silver mining companies’ reports, they are claiming that they can produce silver at $17 per ounce or $18 per ounce, but this is a razor-thin margin, and if anything goes wrong, these companies will not be profitable. Furthermore, there are other companies that simply aren’t profitable at the current silver price. The fact is that for silver miners to be comfortably profitable to the point that they are confident that their mines will be cash-flow positive, we need a minimum silver price of $25 per ounce to $30 per ounce.

Until we reach that point, there is going to be very little investment in silver mining, and this means that unless the price of silver rises from here, silver production is going to diminish. This in itself will force silver prices higher.

Second, despite the fact that silver mining is currently a tenuous business, industrial demand for silver has been growing. Industries are finding more and more usages for silver, from photovoltaic cells in solar panels to medical devices to smart phones. Furthermore this demand is inelastic, which means that so little silver is used in these products relative to their market value that the producers of these products will still buy silver and produce these products even if the price of silver rises substantially.

For instance, an iPhone contains about a third of a gram of silver that is worth roughly 20 cents. If silver trades to $100 per ounce, then the cost to Apple will be just 80 cents more per iPhone

I Ru 'da day..

Here's the fed's story., and the're stickin' to it..       

a. russell tape (richard russell): ``salinger's missile''
    The SPLITT (GHOSTING) from the Russell tape IS FROM JET EXPRESS 18.
Analysis by experts determined that the OBJECT WAS NOT A MISSILE, since
it was positively identified. Object was a ``Ghost'' of Jet Express 18
which was at a different location.
                        b. the linda kabot photo
    The photo taken by Kabot depicts a bearing of north/northeast. TWA
Flight 800 was south/southwest almost directly behind her.
    Photograph analyzed by CIA National Imagery and Mapping
Administration (NIMA) advised that:

        1. There is object in photo
        2. Object is not a missile
        3. Object appears to be an aircraft, not possible to id
        aircraft because:

       Not possible to determine distance of object from
        camera.
       Exact time of photo unknown: (time frame only is known).
       Insufficient detail in photo to determine type of
        aircraft.

        4. Object is not a drone

       No drone-exercises conducted near Long Island July 17,
        1996.
              c. heidi krieger photograph (streak in sky)
    Negative was sent to FBIHQ for analysis, which determined that
there was DEBRIS ON THE FILM SURFACE.
    d. seat cushion residue (reported in riverside california press)
    The residue appeared red and flaky and was subjected to microscopic
and chemical examination. The analysis determined the items were
consistent with a chlorinated polymeric material, commonly used as
CONTACT ADHESIVE. The red material is NOT ROCKET FUEL OR RESIDUE OF
ROCKET FUEL. Three people convicted in U.S. District Court (one
misdemeanor, 2 felony after trial) of charges related to theft of parts
of the seat cushion from the hangar.
     e. u.s. navy activity in w. 105-106-107--areas closest to the
                         shores of long island
    The warning areas mutually co-exist with commercial air traffic and
were open for COMMERCIAL USE ON JULY 17, 1996.
    There were NO MISSILE FIRINGS FOR TWO YEARS prior to July 17, 1996,
in the Whiskey 105-106-107 areas.
    Military Search and Rescue Exercise conducted July 17, 1996. NO
WEAPONS UTILIZED. NO WEAPONS ON BOARD.
    NO TRAINING EXERCISES UTILIZING ANY WEAPONS were conducted in those
areas on JULY 17, 1996.
    There are designated live firing areas within the Whiskey areas.
Artillery and small caliber weapons fire are authorized in these areas.
The closest area of this type is 86 miles east of the crash site. There
was no Navy firing on July 17, 1996 in that area.
                     f. salinger/goddard statement
    ``I believe promoting the Navy-missile theory was a big mistake. I
believe that the evidence is not sufficient to blame the Navy, and I
wish to move away from that and all areas of conspiracy inquiry
forever.''

Wish I could recall the book/movie with the "they were sinning most vigorously..." line.

As I recall it was in reference to fornication...

What the hell (pardon the pun) is the council of nine?

The council that governs the Church of Satan call themselves the Council of Nine.

Found this hilarious factoid on Wikipedia:

"Richard Dolan teaches the Introduction to Ufology class at the International Metaphysical University as part of its ufology program."

Does the graduating class wear tin-foil hats?

I`m enjoying a delightful ale today. For the ale drinkers out there (of which, I normally exclude myself), I strongly recommend Anderson Valley Brother David`s Triple. It`s brewed and bottled in Boonville, CA. Plan to pay about $12/ bottle.

..And for those who live where they can ship it to.. http://www.wineanthology.com/p-17468-anderson-valley-brother-davids-triple.aspx
