  1. The L.A. WALL - And Gonzalo Lira's (secret) future history Looking back from 2020... Before he Resurfaced, & got KIDNAPPED! As we get to Highland Avenue, up close, The LA Wall is even more massive and frightening than in the pictures I’ve seen: A reinforced concrete wall averaging 150 feet in height, as tall as a fifteen storey building, perfectly smooth, slicing lengthwise right through the middle of Highland Avenue in a north-south direction. “Ain’t it somethin’?” asks Bryce jocularly. It certainly is. The Wall separates Los Angeles’ Westside from the rest of the city. . . . In fact, life in West Los Angeles seems little changed from ten years ago, except of course for the lack of gasoline-powered automobiles. Today, hundreds of thousands of bicycles and pedicabs flow through what was once the most car-friendly city in the world. West Los Angeles’ bike-sharing system is the largest on the planet. Apart from gasoline-powered military vehicles, the few automobiles that do cruise the streets of the Westside are all electric. “But with China shutting us out [of international trade],” explains Bryce, “those EV’s [electric vehicles] are beginning to disappear too. The rare-earth elements needed for their batteries are just not available anymore.” ============================== Gonzalo Lira - has a book coming out An interesting premiss : A Future History Looking from 2020, back to Today (sample chapters) The View from the LA Wall: http://gonzalolira.blogspot.com/2014/01/the-view-from-la-wall.html The Bombing of the Gachsaran Oil field: http://gonzalolira.blogspot.com/2014/01/the-bombing-of-gachsaran-oil-field.html
  2. The Shard in London's Eye The Shard Soaring 310 metres and with 72 storeys, everything about the Shard is dramatic London's Shard skyscraper almost empty one year after opening 27 January, 2014 / The Guardian in London The London Bridge skyscraper - the capital's newest landmark, with views stretching 70 kilometres and which is visible to drivers crawling around the M25 orbital motorway - bills itself as "Europe's first vertical city". It is the highest building in western Europe and, together with the Place, a 17-storey "baby Shard" next door, it cost its Qatari backers £1.5 billion (HK$19 billion). The skyscraper's observation deck can be hired out for corporate events at £30,000 an hour and tables at its three restaurants are reported to be in huge demand. But despite the stunning design by the Italian architect Renzo Piano and glamorous marketing, almost a year after its opening the building remains practically a shell. Ten apartments, designed to pull in some of the richest people on the planet with price tags of £30 million to £50 million, lie empty - still for sale just as the so-called ultra-prime London property market seems to be slowing. . . . + The only office (of 25) occupied is that by Duff + Phelps, insolvency lawyers + New tenants coming: Al Jazeera, a Qatari media business, and Hospital Corp. of America (with a huge private medical clinic - for the super-rich) Qatari landlords have been unwilling to cut their asking prices to attract tenants, and many potential tenants are sniffy about moving there === > MORE: http://www.scmp.com/news/world/article/1414259/londons-shard-skyscraper-almost-empty-one-year-after-opening
  3. There are some very interesting cross-currents in the HK Property Market > see HK Property thread : http://www.greenenergyinvestors.com/index.php?showtopic=13789&page=11 http://GEI-8.com/index.php?showtopic=13789&page=11
  4. Checking the Property shares for a size of a squeeze or downturn... SHKP looks like it could be headed for a drop, even a Big One, after the failure to sustain the effort to get over the Trendline
  5. Despite all the Bearish sentiment, this looks Bullish on HK Property: SUPPLY of New Flats hits a Four Year LOW Completed flats now at 8,300 new private flats at end 2013. That's 18 per cent below 2012, and well below the govt's expectation of 13,551. Analysts about 15,000 to be completed in 2014 (though I have noticed these estimates are chronically too high "best case" guesses.) Will see a Squeeze after Chinese New Year? It is possible, though very unexpected within the market. (Of course, there are many Bearish things, like the emerging China credit crisis that could force the market lower. If the "solution" for that crisis is something that gets more mainlanders to buy in HK, we have the ingredients for an upwards spike in the HK property market.)
  6. This sounds like total mind-blowing stuff. But I want to look at it in detail since Sharry was recommended to Kerry Cassidy, by Dr.RAM / New thread =
  7. Although there is a far amount of overlap with other interviews, this one covers many diverse areas, including some the X-files-like projects that Dr.RAM worked on. Open Canvas a-mad-painter and Mark Eddy guest Dr. Richard Alan = http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ciFKBUlAp4c = Jan 21, 2014
  8. thanks. that's great, TI food for thought
  9. As for the German Gold - I do think you have a very interesting issue there. ( as was described by Eric King on his Blog ) EXCERPT: Embry: “Last week I said the tone in the gold market was changing, but subsequent to that we have had a number of events that assure me the tone is changing. One of them pertains to this revelation by the German regulator, Bafin, that the gold market is more rigged than the LIBOR market was.... “That comes as absolutely no surprise to me because I've known the gold market is massively rigged for over a decade. But to hear that come out of a person who is inside of the system is very, very significant. Then, when you put that into context with what’s happening with Germany and their gold it all makes a lot of sense. The Germans own roughly 3,400 tons of gold, but most of it is at the New York Fed, Paris, and in London. Well, a little over a year ago they were getting pressure because the German citizens were on their back, so they asked for only 300 tons of gold stored at the New York Fed to be returned, and the rest from Paris. The Germans were told they would not get that very small portion of the gold stored at the New York Fed back for 7 years. This was the first tipoff that something was wrong. Well, lo and behold, a year has passed and they’ve only gotten 37 tons back out of this massive amount of gold the Germans have held outside of the country, but only 5 tons was sent from the Fed -- 5 tons! The Fed allegedly stores over 1,400 tons of gold for the Germans, and they only got 5 tons back in one year. If that doesn’t tell you that this German gold which is allegedly held at the Fed, as well as the other gold the Fed is supposedly storing for many foreign countries, hasn’t been leased, swapped, hypothecated, and rehypothecated, nothing does. So I think we are on the verge of something big happening in the gold market. Right on the heels of that, Deutsche Bank dropped out of the London gold price fix. There are five entities that set the price each day, and after the German announcement that they received very little of their gold back from the Fed, Deutsche Bank drops out of the gold price fixing. So there is something major happening here. === > http://kingworldnews.com/kingworldnews/KWN_DailyWeb/Entries/2014/1/20_The_Rothschilds,_Deutsche_Bank_%26_The_Final_End_Game.html
  10. I was mainly seeking a source for the Raw Data. Which I have now compiled here: (from the SPRD thread) = = I really didn't pay much attention to the views they have on the Gold price. My own views (which change) have been as accurate, and probably better than you will find in the press. I use charts. They work pretty well. But I do think it is important to monitor what others are saying. But i do nor expect them to call the Gold price moves accurately. Who do you think has a worthwhile opinion on the Gold market? I tend to like the chartists who pay attention to the fundamentals to put their chartist notions in a bigger context.
  11. The China Gold import figure is huge... and may or may not fall Chinese gold imports may fall as buying frenzy calms 20 Jan 2014 Chinese gold imports, the lone bright spot in an otherwise disastrous year for bullion in 2013, look set to fall from last year's record levels, adding to pressure on gold as analysts forecast a price decline for a second year. But any drop-off in Chinese demand is likely to be limited by gold's 28 percent price-plunge in 2013, which has kept retail buyer interest high in the world's biggest bullion consumer, even as large investors scour for greater returns elsewhere. (Read more: China gold consumption set to cool in 2014) Chinese investors rushed to buy gold last year, particularly after a price plunge in April that drew queues of mom and pop buyers looking for a bargain. In the first 11 months of 2013, Chinese imports more than doubled to 1,060 tons, based on the most recent data, making up about a third of global purchases. Getty Images But China's gold imports from Hong Kong - the only official data available - could fall in 2014, four analysts said, with three of them pegging a decline of at least 10 percent. Another saw imports at around the same level as a year ago. == > http://www.cnbc.com/id/101349707 1,060 tons - are a very big slice of Annual Gold production:
  12. TAKING HITS - Some Estates are now below Jan 2013 prices =========== The HK property market is now highly illiquid, so the prices reported in the Weekly Index may not be as representative as they once were. (For instance, a low floor, poor layout flat may be 20% or more cheaper per sf than a high floor. So if the flat sold does not reflect the average, it may not be representative. And if only 1 or 2 flats are sold in a month, they may distort the reporting.) Even so... Some sales are being reported at levels well below a year ago - and I thought this might be worth tracking. If readers see low prices being reported, they may want to post them here - Or post reasons why the index price is not representative.

  13. Haha _ yeah. I got opportunity for some contrarian thinking. (here's what so many have forgotten - from the Jim Turk thread): TRUE I have been tracking that - I call in "Bernanke's Racetrack". Or now; "The Fed's Race track" This chart starts when the SPY and GLD were at exactly the same level - you can see what happened since then: The Fed's Racetrack ... update Note how; after Gold has its "blow-off", GLD went too high for the level of underlying inflation - as shown here by : GLD / Gold versus CRB ,,, update GLD (and Gold shares too) corrected - and quite massively so - as money flowed into stocks, and out of Gold. So you could say that, "The Fed got its way... once it was clear that inflation was not taking off." (I think that Jim Turk, and other Gold Bugs, would do well to track the CRB and other inflation indices. Perhaps we have learned that Gold may run into troubles, if it gets too far ahead of inflation.)

  16. MIND THE GAP (duplicate post - for the record here) (1) Developers are enjoying the Rosy Scenario + 430 homes were sold last weekend + Some 2,000 homes are about to be released 1. Monte Vest - : Tai Po ------- : 1,350 flats 2. Riva---------- : Tuen Mun----- : 778 flats 3. The Avenue- : Wanchai ------ : 179 flats 4. Double Cove : Ma On Shan-- : 176 flats 5. ChathamGate : Hung Hom--- : 031 flats 6. Long Beach - : Tai Kok Tsui-- : 020 flats 7. Dunbar Place : Ho Man Tin--- : 012 flats Centaline says the number of NEW flat sales rose 150 per cent year on year in the last quarter to 3,880, with their value jumping 270 per cent to HK$41.2 billion. The secondhand market has been quiet, mainly because the agents are pushing new properties so hard, thanks to the higher commissions. And buyers seem to be confused by all the discounts they see advertised, and are doing a poor job of assessing relative value. (2) And yet the share prices of most (not all) developers have been trending down recently. Even allowing for some margin compression (lower net prices and higher construction costs), I have some difficulty in reconciling the share price movements with the primary sales data. Perhaps the share market is pricing in heavier discounts to come? (3) The stock market is looking forward. But there may be a growing gap between Bearish expectations, and stable reality - And at some point, that gap may narrow suddenly, perhaps resolving itself with share prices rising. REMEMBER this?: Aug 1 — "Government cooling measures to rein in Hong Kong's property market are finally taking a toll on the city's powerful developers and industry watchers forecast prices could drop by up to 15 per cent in the second half of this year." (post #2, on the New Property, "Developer's Game - Cut Prices" thread on AX) There was certainly no 15 per cent drop in the second half

  18. Comments on that YouTube video, some interesting ones ========= + L.S. : Awesome show!! + S.D. : Awesome, fantastic, great, phenomenal, show! Give us more like Richard Allan Miller, and I will listen to your show forever into eternity. + M.S./1 : So, Mister. I don´t believe in cars, so if I walk along in the middle of the road, nothing will happen to me ? So, Mister, most of people abducted by aliens don´t believe in extraterrestrials and do not think about it, but then they find implants and have bizarre experiences. So, is it all in thour minds? is this all our imagination ?... + G.F./1 : "If wishes were horses, beggars would ride", Right? You have misunderstood Dr RAM. He is not saying that all you need to do is wish on your stars. Work, and "getting off the sofa", is very much required. And now is the time where we need to stop wishing, and start working. But he is right that intention, and especially intention backed by action, have the potential to change the outcome. And if you do not change it, and we "hit midnight" and destruction, then you will have to recycle back to the moment where you failed to take action, and carry out your purpose here on this planet. + M.S./2: My comment relates just to 3 or 4 sentences, not the whole interview. And for a change, there comes some guy that really knows something. John b. wells brings good guests. but this one, on 2 or 3 things he said,was out of touch with reality.Wich I understand because when you live a little bit outside of everyday reality, you start to lose some sense. But I really need to hear this interview again.I forgot his words in wich I then made my comment.he said that our collective imagination would always create monsters and miths and aliens, wich I disagree. Collective mind might increase the believe on a mith, but the initial idea comes from only 1 man with one experience or more. + G.F./2: OK. thanks for the clarification. Out of interest, what are the other areas where you think he is "out of touch with reality"? Remember, this is the guy who wrote about a Holographic Universe back in 1973, when it really sounded crazy. Now the world, and even scientists, seem to be catching up with him. Go to my channel, and you can find other interviews with him. + M.S./3: ok. I have nothing more to say about the interview. I really have to hear the interview again because it was eye-opening and intense. I also found nice the way he laughed. but he is genuine. most of them that come to Coast to Coast are pure crap and fake
  19. This one seems to work for the time being: Hear another great interview with Dr Richard Alan Miller Yesterday: "Metaphysical Exploration" with John B. Wells on Coast to Coast AM ... (301 views) = http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mQ1oEunoVss = A pioneer in the annals of metaphysical and paranormal exploration, Richard Alan Miller began working in the 'X-Files' world of Navy Intel (Seal Corp. and then MRU) in the late 1960s. He joined John B. Wells to discuss his work in three major fields: alternative agriculture, new age physics and metaphysics. (Check out the Comments under the video, and maybe give the Video a push by "like"-ing it, or writing a comment) Note: richard from syria (email: mkultra2451) called to confirm the weather manipulation on the ho chi minh trail... and the War at Archeleta Mesa
