Based in Philadelphia : website MAK : Owns and operates regional shopping malls, mainly in the western US.: website THIS may be why: "Something Snapped": US Department Store Sales Crash Most On Record On the other hand, one particular chart revealed in the latest monthly Bank of America debit and credit card spending report shows that things may be about to get a whole lot worse for America's department stores, as well as malls where they are for the most part the anchor tenants. Of note: while official US retail sales data will be released tomorrow (BofA data always comes several days ahead of the official release), what is especially ominous is that the collapse in department store spending was the biggest on record: http://www.zerohedge.com/sites/default/files/images/user5/imageroot/2017/03/06/bigger%20short_0.jpg Breaking down the headline number into components shows a notable decline across virtually all subsegments, with the exception of Cruise Ships (clearly not a concern for much of middle-class America), Home improvement stores and Home goods. Everything else was flat to down substantially. http://www.zerohedge.com/sites/default/files/images/user5/imageroot/2017/03/06/sector%20level%20sales_0_0.jpg To be sure, Bank of America tries to explain the sudden February weakness with the previously documented delay in tax refunds, although that hypothesis does not conform with last week's Gallup survey according to which February Consumer spending was the highest since 2008. This is what BofA says: "We believe that a delay in tax refunds likely biased spending lower in February relative to prior years. Comparing debit and credit card spend is a good indication since presumably usage of debit cards should be more sensitive to the tax refund (proxy for cash) than credit cards (leverage). Indeed, we found that retail sales ex-autos for debit cards declined 1.7% mom while credit card spending was up 1.8% mom. The second test we looked at was by income cohort -- the tax changes are more likely to impact the lower income households given that the EITC and ACTC are aimed at assisting lower-income households. We see this clearly in our data where the lowest income quintile reduced spending by 3.4% while the highest income quintile actually increased spending by 0.9% mom. We combine these two factors in the Chart of the Month to show weaker debit card spending, particularly for lower income households. == > more: http://www.zerohedge.com/news/2017-03-14/something-snapped-us-department-store-sales-crash-most-record > NEW thread: Philadelphia related Equities: http://www.greenenergyinvestors.com/index.php?showtopic=21415 http://www.zerohedge.com/news/2017-03-14/something-snapped-us-department-store-sales-crash-most-record

Update of Segovia's High Grade Mineral Resources With a 174% Increase ...to 1.1 Million Ounces April 19, 2017 Highlights of March 15, 2017 Mineral Resource Estimate Total Measured & Indicated Resources increased to 2.9 million tonnes at a grade of 12.0 g/t totalling 1.1 million ounces of gold, up 174% compared to the Mineral Resource estimate as of December 31, 2016 (which reflected depletion of production for the period from September 2013, the date of the previous CIM Mineral Resource estimate, through the end of 2016). Infill drilling along with the ongoing validation work of the historical database and surveying of the underground mine workings have contributed to the increase in the Measured & Indicated categories of Segovia's Mineral Resource estimate. The updated Mineral Resource estimate reaffirms the high grade nature of the gold deposits at Segovia with the grade of the Measured & Indicated Mineral Resources averaging 12.0 g/t. By comparison, the head grade of the material mined at Segovia averaged 13.8 g/t during the year ended December 31, 2016 and 13.7 g/t during the first quarter ended March 31, 2017. The previous estimate reported all material at El Silencio as Inferred and the estimates were limited to Veta Manto material in lower areas of the mine, which were still flooded at that time. The upgrading of the El Silencio Mineral Resource below Mine Level 29 added 1.8 million tonnes at a grade of 11.4 g/t, representing 659,000 ounces of gold, from Inferred to the Indicated category in the updated Mineral Resource estimate. Mapping and surveying of historical workings together with ongoing validation work of the historical database by the Company's geology team has significantly increased the volume of material available for estimation in the upper levels of the mine, and within five additional known veins within the system. == == First Quarter 2017 Production and Distribution of Materials for Debt Extension Proposal April 11, 2017 - Gran Colombia Gold Corp. (TSX: GCM) announced today that it produced a total of 39,008 ounces of gold in the first quarter of 2017, up 24% over the first quarter last year. With the trailing 12 months' total gold production as of the end of March 2017 increasing 5% over 2016's annual production to 157,227 ounces, the Company remains on track with its production guidance for the 2017 calendar year of a total of 150,000 to 160,000 ounces. At the Segovia Operations, a 19% increase in tonnes processed and improved mill recovery were the key drivers behind a 26% year-over-year increase in its first quarter 2017 gold production to 32,768 ounces. With the trailing 12 months' total gold production as of the end of March 2017 at Segovia increasing 5% over its 2016 annual production to 133,030 ounces, the Company continues to expect that Segovia's gold production will fall within its production guidance range for the 2017 calendar year of 126,000 to 134,000 ounces. At the Marmato Operations, gold production in the first quarter of 2017 was 6,240 ounces, up 14% over the first quarter last year, driven by a 20% year-over-year increase in tonnes processed and improved mill recovery. This brings Marmato's trailing 12 months' gold production at the end of March 2017 to 24,197 ounces, up 3% over its 2016 annual production and within its 2017 calendar year production guidance range of 24,000 to 26,000 ounces. . . . 2020 Debenture Extension Proposal - Deadline May 11th On April 7, 2017, the Company used funds available in the sinking fund for the 2020 Debentures (TSX: GCM.DB.V) to complete a block purchase at a discount under its normal course issuer bid of $450,000 aggregate principal amount of 2020 Debentures for cancellation.

That is 49 years, and now is the 50th year which is called a “Jubilee” year. Polny says, “49 years is the end of the cycle. So, the 50th year is a year of cleansing and a year of washing. It’s a year of debt forgiveness. . . .It’s a year of rest. It’s a debt forgiveness year. . . . The old system of debt, bonds and the dollar, those are all debt based instruments. That’s the old . . . that’s part of the cycle which ended. Now you have seven years forward of massive world changes.” Polny also says, “Do expect that this year, 2017, markets will be falling. The dollar will be falling, and gold and silver will never be at these low prices ever again.”

ARCA South, BGC & other areas will benefit from infrastructure developments, now moving forward Readers might want to glance at this - it is from Ayala Premier , Ayala's top brand With a focus on Arca South, "the next BGC", now that BGC is mostly sold and is becoming almost "an island surrounded by traffic jams." New infrastructure is sorely needed, and the MEGA MANILA subway, if it gets built should provide the needed fix for Rockwell (Kalayaan station), BGC, and also Arca South (FTI station) I think good developments near the stations will trump less well-located properties, if Hong Kong is a good model. So watching these future transport infrastructure developments can provide a payoff Arca South - Update: Roads & utilities 99% completed 5km from BGC, 7km from Makati, 5mins from NAIA Beneficiary of 2 ongoing infrastructure developments: Intermodal Transport System awarded to Ayala: airport-like facility, centralized ticketing, 1200 slots for PUV, access from C6 ramp Skyway MME3/C6-Skyway connector Mega Manila Subway > http://globalnation....- manila-subway The subway’s proposed stops are: Mindanao Avenue, North Avenue, Quezon Avenue, East Avenue, Anonas, Katipunan, Ortigas North, Ortigas South, Kalayaan, Bonifacio Global City, Cayetano Boulevard, Food Terminal Inc.(Arca South) and the Ninoy Aquino International Airport. Duterte, Abe to sign deal paving for Mega Manila subway By: Jovic Yee - Reporter / @jovicyeeINQ Philippine Daily Inquirer / 03:45 PM April 18, 2017 Transportation Secretary Arthur Tugade said on Tuesday that President Rodrigo Duterte and Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe are set to sign in November this year an agreement that would jump-start the construction of the country’s first subway system. During the “Dutertenomics” forum at Conrad Hotel in Manila which showcased the priority projects of the Duterte administration to usher in what it called the country’s “golden age of infrastructure,” Tugade said that the Mega Manila Subway system is being eyed to be constructed by the fourth quarter of 2020, but may be initiated as early as 2019. Tugade said that the P227-billion project, which is “one of the very ambitious projects of the Duterte administration,” would be funded by the government and through an official development assistance. He added that it promises to bring commuters from Quezon City to Taguig City in just 31 minutes. . . . Also in the pipeline for the development of the country’s rail systems is the construction of the Philippine National Railways (PNR) North Rail that would connect Tutuban in Manila with Clark in Pampanga. Tugade said that the construction of the P225-billion rail is estimated to be started by the second quarter of 2018. Once completed in 2021, the 100-kilometer PNR North Rail is seen to cater to around 350,000 passengers daily, who can reach Clark from Tutuban in 55 minutes. > http://globalnation.inquirer.net/155017/duterte-abe-set-sign-deal-paving-mega-manila-subway#ixzz4exRwoIvY

Drill hole FA-17-07 intersected three mineralized zones including 7.06 metres of 149.08 g/t gold with a higher grade sub-interval of 3.72 metres of 281.30 g/t gold. Drill hole FA-17-08 intersected two mineralized zones including 5.16 g/t gold over 2.68 metres with a higher grade sub-interval of 32.30 g/t gold over 0.39 metres. Drill hole FA-17-02 intersected three mineralized zones including 3.04 g/t gold over 4.58 metres. Drilling proves good continuity of Zone 110, which was not included in the 2016 resource estimate due to insufficient drilling. At least two new zones have been discovered within short distance of the existing ramp to underground workings All mineralized zones remain open and warrant further exploration drilling Exploration target: 240,000 to 400,000 ounces of gold (600,000 to 1,500,000 tonnes at a grade of between 8 and 12 g/t gold) "We are extremely pleased with these initial results which have exceeded our expectations", stated Marz Kord, President and CEO of Wallbridge. "We purchased Fenelon because we saw potential for it to grow far beyond the existing near surface resource. This gold project can not only be brought into production in the near term for low capex, but these exploration drill results demonstrate that there is a lot of potential to expand the gold resources and reserves". He continued, "Our recently completed positive prefeasibility study on the near surface resource support continuing our advancement towards a bulk sample and subsequent production." ===== 0.135 Change: +0.04 : +42.11% On Volume: 1,421,474 update

The Ancient Race: The Builder Race In this chapter, there will be fewer footnotes as we go along because what is discussed here has been extensively outlined in the WPP, and all those papers are richly footnoted. Thus, if the reader wants more references, perhaps, to connect the dots on his or her own, I would refer back to my papers. This chapter will partly be an overview of the ET situation on Earth as it stands today and how it ties in with Artificial Intelligence. However, there will be new material as well. Lately, many have started discussing the so-called ancient Builder Race.[1] Some claim that certain breakaway groups within the Military, operating inside and beyond the solar system, have discovered very ancient cities and artifacts on most solid planets and moons (including our own). These artifacts have been dated back millions, if not billions of years. The people working within the Secret Space Program (SSP) (a Black Budget Space Program—or Programs—that the general public doesn’t know anything about) allegedly don’t understand who this Builder Race is.[2] I can tell the reader with certainty who this Builder Race is. It was not a mysterious race that came here in the ancient days, stayed for a few thousand years, and then suddenly disappeared from one day to another, leaving only ruins behind. The Builder Race were the beings I call the Overlords or the AIF, plain and simple—the Builder Race belonged to some of these same star races. Our mythology tells us that the AIF arrived in the solar system about 500,000 years ago, or perhaps more exactly, 425,000 years ago, from our time perspective. This is when they drove the Orions and the Vegans (from the constellation of Lyra) away from their Experiment. However, Gaia is far more than 4.6 billion years old, which is evident. Archeologists have found artifacts (and even preserved footprints) that are millions and even billions of years old![3] Civilizations lived in our solar system billions of years ago, probably before the Namlú’u (the Primordial womankind) were brought into manifestation in the KHAA by the Queen of the Stars. The visitors who were here billions of years ago were not necessarily En.ki and the Cosmic Outlaw Gang we are dealing with now, but they mostly belonged to the same star races and their offshoots.[4], [5] Many of them were warlike creatures. Some of the ET visitors in ancient times were branches of the Sirian and Arcturian Empire—warrior races who once were at war with Orion, but later created a bond between the empires and merged them, as told in the WPP. Khan En.lil, the Queen’s Arcturian consort, entered into a marriage with the Queen of the Stars as a sign of good will between the two empires. This is why we distinguish between the MAKH warriors (Orions and the protectors of the Orion Queendom) and the DAKH warriors, who are the Arcturians and their allies from other asterisms. When peace was established, the DAKH army became an extension of the army of the Orion Empire. Peace was now established, and the DAKH warriors, who were also excellent builders (and still are), were often visiting Gaia/Earth and our solar system. They were the ones who built the artifacts that are now being rediscovered as ruins from eons ago. Allegedly, it looks as if some of the ancient cities and artifacts all over our solar system were bombed into ruins, indicating that those who were here were involved in an interstellar war long ago. This is true. There were intruders in the past, long before Lucifer’s Rebellion, and the DAKH were still the protectors of the Queendom. However, many of the ruins probably stem from the Titan War, after Lucifer rebelled. Some parts of the destruction that have been noticed in the solar system are likely to have happened when En.ki and his DAKH warriors invaded the solar system and drove the Orions and the Vegans out 425,000 years ago, destroying the planet Tiamat between Mars and Jupiter in a nuclear attack, and killing many from the peaceful team of the Orion Empire, who resided here at that time. Readers may wonder how we can find footprints on Earth that are billions of years old when the Physical Universe apparently was “created” by En.ki and his scientists approximately 200,000 years ago when the first Homo sapiens were engineered into being. Or was it? == > source: Wes Penre : http://wespenre.com/My-Books/Book2-AI/chapter-19-the-ancient-race.htm

HOLLOW EARTH - fascinating Revelations Hollow Earth vs Honeycomb Earth & Inner Earth Civilizations – Corey Goode Published on Apr 14, 2017 Corey's slideshow - on what he saw inside the Earth. in Antarctica

Pure speculation - but very interesting... / 1 / Ben’s take on Trump is opposite what intel I have been reading. Evidence shows that only about half of the cruise missiles hit the “designated targets”. Where did the other ones go? Cruise missiles are very accurate and don’t miss targets unless on purpose. Also as it turns out the designated target was an old airfield that has not been used in years, and Trump notified both Russia as well as Syria of the attack before it took place. There is speculation that the attack was OKed by Syria, making it perfectly legal. There is speculation that the other missiles were targeted to Illuminati underground bases, or even possibly negative alien bunkers. The same goes for the MOAB dropped on Afghanistan. So, maybe he was doing the best thing, and at the same time shutting up the media left and deflecting the rumors of a Russian connection. http://exopolitics.org/pentagon-moab-bomb-giants-afghanistan/ Comment by mdudley on April 17, 2017 @ 11:47 pm / 2 / Is Pentagon using MOAB bombs against Giants hidden in Afghanistan?

Ringing Cedar's Anastasia... For those who are interested BOOK ONE: http://www.rivendellvillage.org/Book_1_Anastasia.pdf If she exists, she may look like this today

DAVID WILCOCK's take on recent events seems rather different than Ben's The intel I am receiving from various trusted sources, FWIW, is that the Alliance is behind the latest precision military strikes and they do have a positive purpose. It is important to remember that the majority of this administration is Alliance personnel. The Cabal is not in charge of what is happening. They may throw some curve balls in the mix but by no means are they running the show. Nor could the president start making autonomous decisions when it comes to the military. The Cabal seems to have been behind the CW attack in Syria, and the Alliance had to swiftly respond to that one. The type of things that we are hearing from one or more of the sources behind this report would be consistent with how the Cabal would then want to spin it against the administration, as well as constantly stoking fears of WWIII. They know that any exercising of force in the world, and particularly by the US military, makes people very upset and allows for constant rumors of a world war to be spread. My own sources have emphatically stated the Alliance is taking out the final pockets of the Cabal’s proxy armies and /or funding sources in anticipation of major announcements and prosecutions. If these things were not done first, ISIS or NK could be used to hurt or kill a lot of people, and throw the world into chaos. In the metaphysical sense we are going through a “dark night of the soul” on a global scale at the moment. Many people, including those giving intel to Ben in this report, have a very bleak sense of what is going on. Yet, it seems that everyone in the comments thus far is expressing skepticism. I have worked with the same trusted sources for years now and we are still anticipating major, if not gigantic leaps towards positive events. Contrary to the idea of someone trying to start WWIII, this is much more about PREVENTING it once the really hardcore intel starts being revealed. The Cabal cannot make strikes directly. They have to use proxy armies to do their bidding. Those armies are on their last legs and an operation just like we are seeing now MUST be done before any of the stuff we’ve been hoping for can happen. Intuitive data through dreams has been remarkably accurate and consistent for the last 25 years. Bearing that in mind, three mornings ago I had a powerful dream where I was working beside the president and talking with him for at least 20 minutes. We were cleaning up the mess in a fancy, dark house, opening the drapes to let the light in, et cetera. He confirmed the intel I had already received, as I have shared it here, in this dream. I am hoping to write this all up very soon. I have been benevolently distracted by some huge developments for the positive in my own life lately. == David Wilcock Comment by dwilcock on April 17, 2017 @ 10:27 pm > on Ben's forum: http://benjaminfulford.net/2017/04/17/khazarian-mafia-attempts-to-start-world-war-3-stopped-in-syria-and-in-north-korea/
