Tuesday, February 9, 2010

So it is today.  I woke up around 4am, as I have been doing for a while now.  I grabbed my half-farthing year 1844 Victoria D.G. Britainnar Regina F.D. off of the seat to the left of my bead, and looked at it.

I figured out, or remembered that this half farthing represents 1 carob bean weight of sterling silver.  A carob bean is 3 barley grain weights, 4 wheat grain weights, 5/3 tola seed weights.  There are 1920 carob beans in a british or britannia pound or libra of sterling silver, or 5760 barley grains or troy grains. 

In any case, 1 carob bean standardized my style if 500/2640 grams.  Metric is 0.19439673 grams.  500/2640 is 0.189393939 grams.  0.189393939/0.19439673 = 0.974265046 which is almost 0.975, which me giving you a 500/2640 grams of sterling silver represented by a copper coin, means that you are within my realme, or even a little closer.  Well, yes, even a little closer.  This is true.  You are 0.000753799479 much closer to me, which is, oh, no, you are this much farther away from me than inside my realme.  hmm, yes this is true.

In any case, 1 pound of copper = $2.939 usd on kitcometals.com right now 2/9/2010 at 5:29 am est.

1 troy ounce of silver is = $15.24 usd on kitcosilver.com

I learned Kitco from the guy who owned Coins 'n Things in Bridgewater in 2007, maybe it was August 2007 I think it was, to value gold, silver, and copper, as this is what he checked to sell gold and silver.

Ok, back to my calculations.

1 pound = 453.59237 grams

453.59237 / (500 / 2 640) = 2394.96771 carob.

this is off the calculation.

15.24*.925+2.939*.075/14.5833333 = 14.1121149$ per troy ounce sterling silver 925.

1 troy ounce = 31.1034768 grams

31.1034768/(500/2640) = 164.226358 carob

14.1121149/164.226358 = 0.0859308766$ usd per carob sterling silver 925.

2.939$ usd per pound copper

0.0859308766/2.939 = 0.0292381343 pounds copper

0.0292381343 pounds = 13.2621946 grams copper

(13.2621946 / 500) * 2 640 = 70.0243875 carob copper February 9, 2010 issue.

2.4 grams copper 1844 issue = (2.4 / 500) * 2640 = 12.67200 carob copper 1844 of my 500/2640 style and 2.4 gram = 12.3458867 carob of the metric style.

70.0243875/12.672 = 5.52591442.

So, about 5.5 times heavier now.

This means, that it was 0.180965524 or about 18.1% the weight of what copper represents now.  It has lost a lot of value, or silver has increased a lot.

So it takes 5.5 of the half farthings to represent this one now.

so, 5.52591442 * 8 = 44.2073154 = about 44.  as 5.5*8 = 44.

So it takes 44 half farthings to represent one penny now, whereas before this was 5.5 pennies, or nearly a half shilling.

Things are still not balanced.  This has still been going on way too much.  There was the Superbowl yesterday.  I did not watch it.  I stayed in the house here by myself since maybe about 6:30 or 7pm and now it's 7:45am, the typical, about 12 hours in the house.  And there's really no where for me to go to do my business for the day except stay in the house.  This has been going on for an extremely long time now.  Not supposed to necessarily live in the Regia.  Is for daily administration.

Funny energy today.  It's Terminalia for Terminus, and new start tomorrow quite possibly.  But ugh, is just weird out.  It's been very dark lately.  This house I'm living in, too dark, need much more sun.

:).

It is coming upon February 7th tomorrow.  I moved into this house that I'm living in now November 7 of last year.  So I have been here November, December, January, so for almost 3 months now.  If I give notice here by today to move out by March 7th, and then rent the place in Bridgewater for March 1st, then I am back on track at starting my rent at March 1st again. 

Time is different here, and I am bored.  The highway is too loud many times, but also it is too quiet in other regards here.  I just don't know anyone in this area and it is out of my area.  I need a place I can settle into. 

I cleaned out what I need to clean out here, now I have to build up and bring in.  Or at least this is what I think I need to do.  Sounds good to me, for now. :).

I took the vodka and spilled it out on the stone wall outside here.  That's where it belongs, gone and outside.  I read on the bottle that Smirnoff was special assistant or something like that to the imperial court of russia around 1886 to 1917.  maybe that's their problem, they were drinking this vodka and it messed up their head, and they lost their empire, family, palaces, etc.  well, maybe not family, some of them yes.

so bye bye vodka.  I have had a headache for a few weeks now, and i've been drinking the vodka since i saw the lady there at the bridgewater fitness center with it.  not good, i don't need it.
