remember when gordon brown sold the gold(future`s)
First topic message reminder :
Gold Price Plunges Amid Asia Markets Sell-Off
After reaching a peak in the summer of 2011, gold falls to a five-year low as investors in Asia and the US face uncertain times.
A combination of rate hike fears in the US together with selling activity in China has caused the price of gold to fall to its lowest level in nearly six years.
Spot gold fell to as low as $1,083.74 (£695) in Asian trade - marking its lowest price since November 2009.
There was a significant move lower in Asian trading at about 2.25am BST - with gold losing over 4% of its value in just a few minutes as five tonnes of gold were sold through the Shanghai gold exchange in the opening half hour.
Gold, which is as seen as a safe haven in times of uncertainty, trades in the opposite direction to that of the US dollar. So when the dollar is rising in value the price of gold falls.
The main reason for the trend is that gold, like most other commodities, is priced in US dollars. When the US dollar strengthens, it will take fewer dollars to buy the same amount of gold.
As the threat of a rate hike in the US increases so does the value of the US dollar. Since the beginning of May the US dollar is 1.6% stronger against the pound and this is widely cited as the reason behind the recent trend we have seen in the falling price of gold.
Another reason behind the fall could be the near term resolution of the Greek crisis. Banks are set to reopen today after a third €86bn bailout package was agreed.
The fact that Greece will be able to repay its debts, at least in the short term, means that the risk premium attached to gold, as a safe haven, is diluted.
Another potential reason behind the sell-off could have been Friday's news from the People's Bank of China that it owns around 1,658 tonnes of gold bullion - far less than the circa 3,500 tonnes analysts had expected.
This was the first time China had revealed its gold holdings since 2009, and although it now owns 60% more gold than it did in 2009, the revelation that the country owns less than expected prompted a $10 per ounce price drop on Friday.
Sydney-listed gold miner Evolution mining saw its shares fall over 14% on the back of the drop in the price of gold this morning.
Since its peak in August 2011 gold has lost nearly 40% of its value. It is currently trading at around $1,109 per ounce.

i rest my case

So you Are saying that anyone who holds any fixed belief about anything is a bigot...!?
depends on what that fixed view is in your case its blacks and gays so in your case yes
Or are you saying that people who hold the same fixed views as you Are not bigots but those who hold other fixed views are bigots...!?
Again depends on what that fixed view is in your case its blacks and gays so in your case yes
What makes your fixed views any less bigotry...!?
common decency ,education ,compassion ,understanding social acceptance
Maybe you Just don't understand the meaning of the word...
In British English it refers to a state of mind where a person is obstinately, irrationally, or unfairly intolerant of ideas, opinions, or beliefs that differ from their own, and intolerant of the people who hold them.
so am i intolerant to your medieval 12 century views yes i am
the world has moved on and the sooner you catch up the better this world will be
your views are in the minority and socially unacceptable in a moden world
quite frankly you should have been born in 1920 Germany where you views would have fitted right in

Which would be impossible to do anyway... the test was firing questions at me thick and fast for an hour... and I was answering each question in a matter of seconds... and mostly picture based logic/sequence type questions, impossible to start looking up

Re: remember when gordon brown sold the gold(future`s)
Tommy, fact remains you think I shouldn't be allowed to marry and that I am unnatural and that if I had a child then that child would he less fortunate than others, for these reasons I do and will continue to look down on you- not because I also happen to think you are pretty limited in terms of intelligence.

Re: remember when gordon brown sold the gold(future`s)
Very honest of You victor!
And les, I don't think you shouldn't be allowed to marry, I think you should have as much right to marry a woman as every other man!
If a child was deliberately denied a mother who for the most part is more needed then that would be more than unfortunate.
I believe your attraction to another man and sexual practices are indeed abnormal and unnatural... this is just a statement of fact.

Statement of opinion. And I don't care for your reasoning I've heard a million times before. I'm just stating why I look down on you.

Well I have a right to my opinion and there is no need to be condescending about it just because you don't like it.

Re: remember when gordon brown sold the gold(future`s)
There is no need you're right. But then there is no need for you to repetitively tell someone how they are unnatural and abnormal either. And since your view that I should not be allowed to marry my fiance is your right you choose to express, then I will exercise my right to tell you how I look down on people with that view.
I come across as condescending to you, so what? You come across as anti-gay to me, so what right?

Re: remember when gordon brown sold the gold(future`s)
But you always make the same point, which isn't original either...
Basically what you Are saying is that everyone has to agree with you or they are wrong and stupid... sheer arrogance from a typical leftie view point of being superior to others while also banging on about equality...

What are you babbling on about now you idiot!!!???
I said The 'another 15 minutes went past...' bit and you left out the 'another' word in your claimed "quote" and then tried saying this was proof of me slipping up with the story!
I then asked whether you were doing this for a joke!!!
I wasn't saying I was joking with what I said!!!
What I say comes from within my own knowledge... I only post sources to back up What I say when idiots like you try to deny what I say is true!!!
Honestly KD... I'm starting to think that your misunderstanding of so many basic things may be because of some other psychological disorder that You may be suffering from...
Of course I do sympathise with you if you are suffering from another condition... however it IS becoming a little tiresome to keep having to explain things that You Are misunderstanding.
Plus it has become apparent to me that you lack ability to argue or debate points properly, it appears to me that your thought processes are restricted somehow,.. you seem to be unable to think laterally or from different perspectives.
Not trying to be horrible or overly critical... just an observation...

Re: remember when gordon brown sold the gold(future`s)
oh dear still trying to squirm i referred to the google bit even highlighted the comment i even put a few under it the rest had a line trough it all
you then said "i twisted the truth and misrepresented what you said" it was you that used the word "i"
i later pointed out what you should have said "what victor said as a joke" but you had claimed the comment highlighted with the "i said as a joke "i even had put a few under it
my observation is your trying to squirm an explanation for your error of grammar in claiming it was a joke
a Freudian slip of epic proportions

Re: remember when gordon brown sold the gold(future`s)
KD... are you really that stupid as To think I was talking about victors edit and addition to my earlier post???
Of course I was not claiming victors words were mine you cretin!!!
And of course I wasn't looking up answers during the test... only a complete simpleton would think that would be a possible, practical and beneficial thing to try doing!!!
The questions were quick fire at me during the test, and I was answering each one in a matter of seconds!!!
How long do you think it would take to try to look up each question somewhere!!!???
And have you actually seen any type of IQ test questions!!!???
They aren't asking you what the capital of France is, for example... or a historical date etc...!!!
When I was talkinp about you deliberately misrepresenting what I had posted in your cherry picked "quote", I was talking about this bit...

yes you areTommy Monk wrote:KD... are you really that stupid as To think I was talking about victors edit and addition to my earlier post???
Of course I was not claiming victors words were mine you cretin!!!
yet that`s what you did i pointed to the comment i was referring to with
i mentioned no other comment or highlighted any other comment but you claimed in response it was your jokey comment, not the comments crossed out and no mention of victor at all
And of course I wasn't looking up answers during the test... only a complete simpleton would think that would be a possible, practical and beneficial thing to try doing!!!
i don`t believe you as you say a test that you reckon should have taken 15-20 min i think you said took a hour you even took a break you said
The questions were quick fire at me during the test, and I was answering each one in a matter of seconds!!!
matter of seconds ? 15 min break so lets call it a 45 min test lets be generous and say a matter of seconds = 5 on average that`s about 540 question (check my maths )
How long do you think it would take to try to look up each question somewhere!!!???
not very long a matter of seconds it is google after all
And have you actually seen any type of IQ test questions!!!???
yes but as previously pointed out internet tests prove nothing and is not a measure of intelligence as youclaimedbragged
i did provide a psychologistsassesment of these tests
They aren't asking you what the capital of France is, for example... or a historical date etc...!!!

Re: remember when gordon brown sold the gold(future`s)
Are you really this stupid...!!!???
Victors words are not in MY post!!!
Victors words are in HIS post containing an edited version of MY post!!!
His words... not mine!!!
When I asked about you deliberately misrepresenting MY words, I was referring to your selective "quote" of MY words from MY post where I had written...
"ANOTHER 15 minutes went past... etc"... and you failed to include the word 'ANOTHER' and by doing so, misrepresented what I had said in MY post!!!
I had no idea how long the test would run for before I started doing it, the test info page didn't say. And I presumed that it wouldn't be any more than about 20 minutes when I started doing it, if I had known it would run for an hour then I wouldn't have started it as I had other things I was supposed to be doing.
I had to stop during the test because I had to make two phone calls, I needed a piss and needed a cup of tea...
So I got up, put the kettle on, went for a quick Piss, came back to pour the boiled water into the mug, left it to brew while I made the two quick phone calls to get the info I had already requested and was immediately available from each person once they had each answered the phone calls, then I went and finished making the tea quickly and carried on with the test... which was still running and with test time still ticking on...
This all took a few minutes to do, about ten minutes max I reckon.
And obviously if I hadn't stopped, i would have been answering questions still and would have answered more questions in total during the test time available.
It was a timed test, meaning that You must answer as many questions as possible during the time given... the more questions answered and answered correctly would give you a higher score.
I spent ten minutes of The overall test time given, not answering questions.
So it stands to reason that had I spent those ten minutes answering questions then I would have answered many more questions overall and got many more correct answers... meaning I would have got a higher score!!!
The rest of your post is just bollocks...
I can't believe I'm actually having to explain all this to You to be honest!!!

It was a timed test, meaning that You must answer as many questions as possible during the time given... the more questions answered and answered correctly would give you a higher score.
I spent ten minutes of The overall test time given, not answering questions.
So it stands to reason that had I spent those ten minutes answering questions then I would have answered many more questions overall and got many more correct answers... meaning I would have got a higher score!!!
The rest of your post is just bollocks...
I can't believe I'm actually having to explain all this to You to be honest!!!

Re: remember when gordon brown sold the gold(future`s)
In any reliable IQ test, if you don't answer all the questions you get marked right down. As a genius score is over 150, it is not possible to get 140 on a proper IQ test without anwering every question. Time taken to answer is taken into account when it is calculated.

Re: remember when gordon brown sold the gold(future`s)
But it is true the online tests are NOT "proper " IQ tests, they are designed to compress the result up from the bottom and thus make dumb people look a bit less dumb....
not only that they are not done under controlled conditions either.....
More over ANY IQ test these days is flawed, since the more you do the better you become at them...

Re: remember when gordon brown sold the gold(future`s)
Honestly claims like yours just show what a idiot you are Tommy it least if it was me i would have claimed something more believable 120 for example yet given your views it is obvious that your not that smart aand i think most would and have said that to you on many occasionsTommy Monk wrote:Are you really this stupid...!!!???
Victors words are not in MY post!!!
Victors words are in HIS post containing an edited version of MY post!!!
His words... not mine!!!
When I asked about you deliberately misrepresenting MY words, I was referring to your selective "quote" of MY words from MY post where I had written...
you din`t ask you said "s this a deliberate misrepresentation of what I actually said for a joke..? "i had yet the only highlighted one bit that was the goggle bit i made no mention or reference to the rest
"ANOTHER 15 minutes went past... etc"... and you failed to include the word 'ANOTHER' and by doing so, misrepresented what I had said in MY post!!!
I had no idea how long the test would run for before I started doing it, the test info page didn't say. And I presumed that it wouldn't be any more than about 20 minutes when I started doing it, if I had known it would run for an hour then I wouldn't have started it as I had other things I was supposed to be doing.
I had to stop during the test because I had to make two phone calls, I needed a piss and needed a cup of tea...
yes that`s the bit that makes your claim of 140 so funny you than claimed if you had not stopped it would have been higher
IQ Ratings of Over 140 --Genius or near genius
IQ Ratings of 120 to 140--Highly intelligent
IQ Ratings of 110 to 119 --Very intelligent
IQ Rating of 90 to 109 --Normal or average intelligence
IQ Ratings of 80 to 89 -- Dullness
IQ Rating of 70-79 --Borderline deficiency
IQ Ratings below 70 --Definite feeble-mindedness
so given this scale i would put you at Borderline 79 -83
So I got up, put the kettle on, went for a quick Piss, came back to pour the boiled water into the mug, left it to brew while I made the two quick phone calls to get the info I had already requested and was immediately available from each person once they had each answered the phone calls, then I went and finished making the tea quickly and carried on with the test... which was still running and with test time still ticking on...
time still ticking on so it was a timed test as i pointed out and you got 140
This all took a few minutes to do, about ten minutes max I reckon.10 -15 seems you have a problem with time as well tommy
And obviously if I hadn't stopped, i would have been answering questions still and would have answered more questions in total during the test time available.
It was a timed test, meaning that You must answer as many questions as possible during the time given... the more questions answered and answered correctly would give you a higher score.
I spent ten minutes of The overall test time given, not answering questions. and still got 140 yes Tommy we believe you
So it stands to reason that had I spent those ten minutes answering questions then I would have answered many more questions overall and got many more correct answers... meaning I would have got a higher score!!!
higher than -Genius or near genius ?....wow what do you do for work mister Genius or near genius ?
The rest of your post is just bollocks...
only because its true and you can`t make up a bullshit twist not that clever for a Genius or near genius are you
I can't believe I'm actually having to explain all this to You to be honest!!!
explain ? all you have done is twist and squirm Mr Genius or near genius 140 score would be better if not for 10-15 mins:lol!:
you certainly don`t come across as that clever
but sure keep mr genius

Re: remember when gordon brown sold the gold(future`s)
The one I did ran for an hour and kept on firing page after page of questions for whole duration while I was answering them.
I had not done one before so had no practice beforehand.
I have only ever seen a couple of example questions before in my life.

You said you didn't finish the test, because you said if you had had more time you would have answered more questions. High IQ when you can't even remember saying that!
So it stands to reason that had I spent those ten minutes answering questions then I would have answered many more questions overall and got many more correct answers

Because you said if you hadn't taken time out you would have been answering more questions, so there must have been more questions to answer.

Re: remember when gordon brown sold the gold(future`s)
What the fuck are you talking about!!!???
There was no mention of any set number of questions!!!
The questions just kept on coming until the time ran out!!!
The quicker the questions were answered meant more questions were given, and the more you answered and answered correctly meant the higher The score!!!
Seriously... what is wrong with you people!!!???
This was not like a normal exam where you had say 50 questions and a given time limit to answer as many as you could in that time... the number of questions were not specified and from a seemingly endless supply!!!
The more I answered, the more that just kept coming until the time was up.
