What are the laws in the US for buying gold with federal reserve notes?
I want to know the nuts and bolts of investing in gold. I heard that there are laws that make federal reserve notes "irredeemable" in gold. Do i have to exchange currency and buy gold in say Europe? Is this something any broker can do, or is it better to get with a specific kind of broker?
The money I have to invest is understood to be "losable", and I know how volatile gold is, but I want to buy now because I think its going to up quite a bit pretty soon. Im not going to invest anything I cant afford to lose.
Thanks
3 AnswersInvesting1 decade agoIn morrowind, I have just found the glass mine and turned a very tidy profit, about 15K....?
I notice glass is an ingredient, as well as ebony. Do these regenerate in the mine after a month of gametime as other ingredients do? Im too lazy to investigate myself, and too darn bust in MW
Great game!!!!!!
Thanks

1 AnswerVideo & Online Games1 decade agowrist injusry question: Im gonna give a little background?
I play hockey and 5 yrs ago I was playing in a full contact pickup game in detroit, michigan. I was playing defense and I went clear the puck off the high glass, and was hit by the forward as I shot the puck. When I conplete the follow through on the shot, my wrist was pinted away from my body, and the check "jammed the wrist" into my body, against nature! It pooped and hurt badly for a day. but no swelling.
TO this day, 5 yrs later, if I grab sonething heavy I get a very sharp pain shooting from my wrist, on the pinky side that shoots up my wrist to halfway to the elbow. very very sharp. Also when I rotate my wrist, the tendon on the outside seems to pop over that pointy lump bone on the left side (pinky). Did I fracture it, damage the nerve, create carpal tunnel or damage the tendon or cartilage, or all of the above? Every now and then I have the need to pop the wrist, pushing it down to the limit and then it pops loudly and goes a little farther relieving the pressure.
2 AnswersInjuries1 decade agoIf every star has at least one planet, and probably many more, and all matter around the universe?
is made of the same stuff, it seems very very likely that life could arise from the same processes as seen here on earth. It seems to me that the probability of there being no life (even simple single cell life) in the universe as being extremely low. How many agree with this? Do you think we will find habitable planets near the closest star, and MAYBE some simple life on the moons of jupiter? I keep hearing about the oceans on Io, and how the volcanic activity could heat the water beneath the ice etc etc. What do you think?

4 AnswersMusic1 decade agoI have abunch of sheet music printed off the computer, about 100 pages and will have more?
i want to bind these pages into a book for safe keeping, organization and convenience. Any suggestions on how to do this? I know nothing about this. Should I print on a certain kind of paper? Is there a cheap/easy way to do this? It needs to be sturdy and to STAY OPEN, so pages wont move back and forth while playing.
Thanks in advance

6 AnswersTelevision1 decade agoHey all. i have been afflicted with bipolar disorder for almost 15 years now and I have a current situation?
This is the scenario: I have no job, I left my position after a racial confrontation with my boss. i had just finished a graduate degree and thought that I would be able to find something. Welll, 6 months have passed and you guessed it, nothing. Only 1 interview with over 100 resumes out. I am in Michigan, pur economy is awful.
I had saved money and I was paying my bills and then I badly injured my foot in January and I just started getting the bills and it looks like Im 400$ short and i have some other things I have to pay.
To the problem: lately I have these awful thoughts, cant sleep can fell myself going into that depressed state again (I should be coming out of it, it is spring). I just notice I have no desire to do the things I like, and have been having a very tough time with my girlfriend b/c of money. Among other things.
Even doing the simplest things seems impossible. I am starting to get really worried
7 AnswersMental Health1 decade agoHow many people thing Luongo is the one of the best goalies in the league (or EVER?) based on his performance?
last night in the trilling 4 OT game that dallas should have won a couple of times. Granted, he got help from the iron, he made so many fantastic saves and looked like he made no mistakes, while making 72 stops. Amazing
15 AnswersHockey1 decade agoIs anyone here obssessed with numbers and counting?
For instance, i look forward to when the time is 12:34, ot 1:59 or 9:51 because that is the most the numbers could be spread out. 1:23, 2:34, 3:45, 4:56, and reverse.
When watching baseball, i figure out how many outs are left and count pitches. I count passes when watching hockey. I count my steps and stairs. I think about numbers all the time, every day.
Another one is calculating percentages and multiples in my head. For instance, in a commerical i saw that the price was lowered by 15% and i had to do the math to make sure it was accurate
Prime numbers are really important to me too. Counting down time until i do something, to the level of seconds, like 3 hours is 180 minutesx60, etc.
Im just getting started. There are many more things I do, calculate gas mileage in the car, count miles driven, count notes on the music page, count change, reminisce on old calculus problems and test myself on other stuff, all in my head when alone.
I feel really weird if i dont.
4 AnswersMental Health1 decade agoI have a bad sinus headache...drank lots of fluids, took a steam shower...?
Note: not trying to be gross but i have to outline my smptoms correctly
Drank green tea, water, ate right and havent missed any meds doses.
The pressure is awful...causing nausea....throbbing behind eyes and temples and alot of production. It feels like one of my nostrils is totally blocked and i cant clear it. i think that would help.
One more detail: i spent 3 days at my mom's house and she has cats...I have never been allergic before but have not lived there for 3 yrs. Is this a symptom of allergy? My gf has been kind of sick too.
I get migraines at times but not for a couple of years
Is mucus trapped in my sinus cavity?
Is there any other home type remedy you guys know of?
Thanks in advance guys, pray for me LOL

5 AnswersComputer Networking1 decade agoI have a laptop and a wireless router from my apartment. I have DSL. Im going to stay at my moms and she?
had DSL, but not wireless. If I take my router over there, how can I use my laptop upstairs witht he router? There is no phonejack in my room so do I replace her DSL modem on her PC downstairs with the router and create a network, or should I use the DSL cable from the router to plug into the back of the DSL modem, and connect the router to the DSL modem. These are both SBC DSL products.
So, once again, take out DSL modem on her PC and replace with Wireless router, or Plug router into DSL modem and leave as is
4 AnswersComputer Networking1 decade agoI have a nut in my neighborhood. He was seen sitting on the curb across from my apt. How can you tell if he?
entered our apt? Our neighbor believed he entered his apt last thurs while he was cleaning snow off his car. He only moved something out of the fridge in to the sink. neighbor is sure of this. He is filing a police report. He says that last night someone was screaming his name at 2am, I heard a noise but couldnt be that specific.
I saw the guy sitting on the curb on 2 instances over the last few months, only to be met by two young guys and they walked away, like he was waiting for them. They live in a house around the corner, and it might be that the parents dont like this guy or their kids hanging wiht him, so he stays out of sight.
My question: any way to detect of someone entered the apt after I left, I have heard of the tape on the door trick, but how do you get it to stick when you leave and pull the door shut? Any other ideas?
I think thats it.... This guy might be a psycho
