Joint account
A joint account is any bank account with more than one official owner.
Expanded Definition
A joint account has two or more legal owners, typically both members of a couple, a parent and child, or co-owners of a business. Joint ownership entitles each person to autonomous decisions over the account and its contents, including deposits, withdrawals, distributions, and access.
Joint accounts are popular for their convenience, since they make it easier to pay common bills and manage household finances.
However, joint accounts also expose each owner to financial and legal risk through the actions of the other owner(s). For example, if one person defaults on a debt, monies in the joint account may be considered a means to discharge that debt, regardless of who accumulated them or their intended purpose. A joint account can also be problematic if co-owners have different assumptions about spending and saving.
For these reasons, financial advisors often suggest that joint accounts be paired with individual accounts and used only for common bills. In this case, each member of the household or business would deposit an agreed-upon sum into the joint account at regular intervals, and this money would be used for common bills such as rent/mortgage, groceries, and utilities. Personal spending and savings, however, would remain with each individual.

Too small and light, By Brian Sniatkowski 'BrianSnat'
April 20, 2011
These are way too small for the 10 liter crock unless you have it filled to the brim. They are also not very heavy. I had to add two jars filled with water. I think the 20 liter weights would work better. They are heavier and a bit wider. I just ordered a set.
Almost heavy enough?, By DragonREG 'Roger'
June 11, 2011
I don't know what's to review. They fit the crock perfectly. Well until I used them, I didn't know just how much weight was required to keep 3+ dozen cucumbers submerged; just a bit more than these stone. Of course initially there is no fluid. After a day or so, it becomes necessary to add brine and seal the crock. But trying to get an inch of brine above the stone proved to float the pickles. I did fill it to capacity and I used whole cucumbers. I have since remedied the problem by poking them with a knife rather than a skewer and extending the initial brining by a few hours during which an additional bag of water was placed on top of the stone. This proved to extract enough fluid as not to need addition brine. Just removed the bag to find sufficient brine and sealed the crock. The less fluid also served to produce Great pickles!
Too big, By John Biswanger 'Chef John'
October 16, 2012
This too big to fit in the Ohio Stoneware 1GC Crock 7-34/'x8-1/4' - 1 Gallon. This is being offered as a package, but can not fit inside the crock.

Re: [SCA-JML] Re: Questions on basic armor construction techniques
Expand Messages
- Otoshi, Thanks for you response. The radius on the
bend of the lame, if that is an accurate description.
The bend on the front that I have done have a flat
middle then taper off on the side. This was very hard
to judge. Ok this does lead me into another question.
In the process of bending the lames what are you using
to hold all the pieces together? I was using two 2x6
sitting down on the 2� side, and then placing the lame
on it as I bent the lames. I guess I need to see Armor
in person not just from book. It the 3D thing that I�m
getting all wrong I guess.
Thanks again for your time patients.

We took a look at the sourcing on Gov. Christie's new attack ad against Sen. Buono. Turns out something was wrong. My story in today's Inquirer:
TRENTON - In TV attack ads, politicians often put text underneath the images to indicate the sources of statistics used to skewer the opposition.
But in the ad that Republican Gov. Christie has been running this week against State Sen. Barbara Buono (D., Middlesex), his expected challenger in November, the source cited is unrelated to the accusation.
That is now changing. On Tuesday, The Inquirer pointed out the discrepancy to the Christie campaign. On Wednesday, campaign spokesman Kevin Roberts said, "We are adding an additional level of specificity when it comes to the source citation."

USS Pinckney (DDG-91) is an Arleigh Burke-class destroyer in the United States Navy. She is named for Cook First Class William Pinckney (1915–1975), who received the Navy Cross for his courageous rescue of a fellow crewmember on board Enterprise (CV-6) during the Battle of Santa Cruz.
Pinckney was laid down on 16 July 2001 by Ingalls Shipbuilding, at Pascagoula, Mississippi; launched on 26 June 2002; and commissioned on 29 May 2004 at Naval Construction Battalion Center Port Hueneme.
As of 2010, Pinckney is commanded by Commander Matthew M. McGonigle, homeported at NS San Diego, and assigned to Destroyer Squadron 23.
Ship history[edit]
USS Pinckney made her maiden deployment September 2005. During this deployment, she made port visits to Guam, Singapore, Australia, Fiji and Hawaii. During this deployment, Pinckney became the first ever guided-missile destroyer to refuel and replenish the Mark Five (MK V) high-performance combatant craft. She returned home after five months underway on 24 February 2006.[1]
On 16 February 2007, Pinckney was awarded the 2006 Battle "E" award.[2]
Pinckney departed San Diego on 2 April 2007 along with USS Nimitz (CVN-68) for a 6 month deployment. She returned home on 30 September 2007.[3]
On March 8, 2014, Pinckney was diverted from a training mission in the South China Sea, to the southern coast of Vietnam, to help search for the missing Malaysia Airlines Flight 370.[4]
The USS Pinckney has been awarded the Navy Battle "E" several times

Home / Advance Tickets / Beers / Ciders / Contact / Entertainment / FFF / Location / Nottingham CAMRA / Q & A / Volunteers
Robin Hood Beer & Cider Festival
Nottingham Castle - Wednesday 7th to Saturday 10th October 2015
Tickets Are Going On Sale For Nottingham's Annual World Beating Beer & Cider Extravaganza. Yes, the beer and cider festival that offers the world's biggest selection of draught cask conditioned beers and over 200 real ciders is back brighter and bigger than ever.
Please note that, once purchased, tickets are strictly non-exchangeable and non-refundable
Check your final details before check-out and payment!
Tickets went on sale at 9am on Monday 1st June, so get in early as last year Friday and Saturday tickets had sold out by early August.
The festival is again being held in the wonderful grounds of Nottingham Castle right in the city centre and as in previous years will not be all-ticket. A full programme of entertainment will again be offered all day from Wednesday evening to Saturday, on the Victorian bandstand.
Tickets are again being sold as a package, which includes a commemorative glass (refundable at £2.50) and either 10 or 15 beer tokens (refundable at 50p each) - two tokens will buy you a third of most beers and ciders and three will buy a half pint. Note that beer prices have been held yet again, which means £3 a pint for all but the strongest beers and ciders. CAMRA members are given a further five tokens on production of a current membership card on entry.
You can bring your own Govt. stamped glass if you wish - but if you want to drink thirds it must have a third of a pint line on it as we will have no measures available. Customers can opt to take an extra 5 tokens in lieu of a commemorative tankard if they wish.
The package price for all day, any time, admission on Thursday is £17.50 which is the same price as last year when you factor in the additional (refundable) tokens. On Friday and Saturday the price will be £20, again these prices include more beer tokens than in previous years. On the Wednesday evening this price is discounted to a bargain £10 and the same price is offered for, cash payers only, on Saturday evenings, although in both cases admission will only include ten tokens.
'EarlyBird' tickets are available on Friday and Saturday for those who wish to enter the festival before 1pm, but please be aware there are no pass-outs or re-admissions. This is for advance ticket holders only, not for customers paying on the gate, and the discounted price for EarlyBird tickets is £17.50. Customers with an EarlyBird ticket will not be admitted after 1:00pm and the tickets are not refundable.
Cash entry will be possible at the full prices quoted above (no EarlyBird discounts). However entry is dependent on available space in the grounds and there may be queues at peak times, and occasionally cash entry will have to be suspended altogether. This is why we strongly recommend you buy advance tickets to this massively popular event, as this guarantees access.
So go on get your advance tickets NOW - you know it makes sense!
Tickets can be purchased online 24 hours a day at SeeTickets.com, transaction fees apply, or over the counter with no transaction fees at the Nottingham Tourism Centre, Smithy Row - Opening hours: Monday to Saturday – 9:30am to 5:30pm, plus Sundays in July and August from 11am - 5pm.

P.O.S. I want my $8K back.
That thing makes the Yugo look like a Saab.
Just looks like a stretched out version of "the car" that I saw 18 years ago. Such a strange feeling to see the same car, in a few different colors, everywhere we went. Soviet Union, Summer 1989:
Actually sweety the blue car above and the white car in the bottom are two different models. The above car is Zhiguli number 1 while the below white model is Zhiguli number 5. I can tell them apart by head and tail lights among other features.
Is the appearance really that much worse than this American car from 1989?
Whoops. How silly of me not to have noticed the difference in the headlights. Thanks for correcting my egregious error. :rolleyes:
Why are you being so defensive, Big? I was simply pointing out how similar the cars looked. When we arrived in the Soviet Union, that was the first thing that struck us when we left the airport, how all the cars looked the same. Not necessarily saying it was a negative thing, it was just a significant visual impact on a group of high school students from North Carolina traveling to a country that most people never had the chance to visit.
Personally, I wish all cars in America looked the same. I am the absolute worst at making decisions, and if I had limited choices, my life would be a lot easier :)
In 1989 at least in Leningrad these kinds of models were beginning to emerge:

From the reviews:
"Astronomy with Small Telescopes offers the amateur astronomer practical 'how-to' advice. Specifically, this book shows the amateur how to get the most performance out of a small telescope. … The chapter entitled 'Visual Observation of Deep-sky Objects with Small Telescopes' includes information that would be helpful to the novice amateur. … some readers will appreciate the convenience of having all of this information in one well written and easy to read book. Astronomy with Small Telescopes is recommended for public and school libraries." (Travis Dolence, E-STREAMS, Vol. 5 (10), 2002)
"As a regular user of small telescopes to explore the night sky, I was keen to discover if Stephen Tonkin's book would encourage the newcomer to astronomy and provide useful information for the more experienced observer. I am delighted to say that it succeeds admirably in both respects. … This is a well-produced, informative book which goes a long way to dispel the notion that you need an expensive, large-aperture telescope to enjoy or contribute to the world of astronomy." (Mike Ropelewski, The Deep Sky Observer Magazine, Issue 126, 2001)
"This latest book summarizes the experiences of several authors who have used telescopes ranging from a simple 60 mm aperture refractor on an altazimuth mount, through to the workings of the fork-mounted ETX telescope and the portable C5. … the advice given in this book will certainly help to improve the performances of almost any instrument. … the individual chapters made very interesting reading … . I would warmly recommend this book to anyone thinking of buying a portable telescope for work or for pleasure." (Neil English, Astronomy Now, April, 2002)
"This is a book concerned primarily with astronomical hardware. Each chapter is written by one of eight contributors, all users of small telescopes. … Kevin P. Daly's account of his Celestron 114-mm reflector and favourite objects to observe is a pleasure to read, containing much that will be of interest to the newcomer. … this chapter should inspire even the most house-bound armchair astronomer to spend a night under the stars with the telescope." (Nigel Bannister, The Observatory, Vol. 121 (1165), 2001)
"The book is part of 'Patrick Moore's Practical Astronomy Series'. It discusses the use of telescopes up to 5-inch aperture (125mm) and thus includes a number of modern popular instruments. … I found the chapter on the ETX telescopes very useful … . Apart from the equipment itself, the book contains suggested projects including deep sky and a chapter on 'meteor observing with a small radio telescope'. A useful and very practical book for the amateur astronomer starting with a first scope." (The Astronomer, Vol. 38 (446), 2001)

VIEWS: 272 PAGES: 19 CATEGORY: Childrens Literature POSTED ON: 12/1/2009 Public Domain
Multivariate Analysis of Variance (MANOVA) • Let's revisit ANOVA to set the conceptual background for MANOVA – mean differences between groups of a factor are tested via the F-test • F = MSbg / MSwg – MSbg = SSbg / dfbg – MSwg = SSwg / dfwg • if no treatment effect F approximately equals 1 • if there is a treatment effect F is large ANOVA Basics continued • let's do a little example with the following data set Experimental Control Group Group 2 6 3 7 1 5 Treatment Mean 2 6 Sums of Squares 2 2 Overall Mean 4 Total SS 28 ANOVA Basics continued • Calculating SSwg and SSbg – SSwg is the pooled within-group variability • so simply add the SS for each group (=4) – SSbg is the difference the mean of each group and the grand mean • this quantity is then multiplied by n (=24) • Calculating MSwg and MSbg – divide the SS values by degrees of freedom • MSwg = 4 / 4 = 1 • MSbg = 24 / 1 = 24 • Calculate F – F = 24 / 1 = 24 • translate this into a p-value (=.008) Multivariate Analysis of Variance (MANOVA) • Obviously MANOVA is an extension of ANOVA • 2 or more correlated DVs analyzed together • DVs form a "set" • this is yet another form of the general linear model – Y1 + Y2 + Y3 + ... + Yn = X1 + X2 + X3 + ... + Xn • each individual gets a new composite DV – where the Y-values are continuous variables – and the X-values are discrete variables • or dummy-coded variables if we have multiple groups/conditions for specific discrete variables Multivariate Analysis of Variance (MANOVA) • Why not do separate ANOVAs? – MANOVA is sometimes powerful because we have taken this correlation among DVs into account • i.e., better deals with overlapping variance – partial redundancy among DVs • does it by creating a linear composite of the individual DVs • helps protect against Type I error – however, we could also do the same analyses using ANOVA if – used a more conservative alpha level – DVs are not "too highly correlated" Multivariate Analysis of Variance (MANOVA) • Examples – Clinical • clients randomly assigned to psychodynamic, CBT, or no therapy • we have DV difference scores for depression, life satisfaction, and physical health – Educational • effect of parent support on child achievement • achievement measured through grades & standardized tests Multivariate Analysis of Variance (MANOVA) – Developmental • gender differences in social coping during transition to junior high • coping assessed with a variety of measures – # friends in social network, # after-school activities, self-ratings of being liked, etc. – in all examples, we have more than 1 DV – similarities/differences to repeated measures ANOVA • similar in that we expect correlations between these DVs • different in that we have different measures for the DV – although this is not absolutely necessary Multivariate Analysis of Variance (MANOVA) • MANOVA and null hypothesis significance testing (NHST) – t-test • 1 = 2 – ANOVA • 1 = 2 = 3 = n – MANOVA • 1 = 2 = 3 = n for DV 1 AND • 1 = 2 = 3 = n for DV 2 AND • 1 = 2 = 3 = n for DV 3 AND • .... – the alternative hypothesis is that there is at least 1 differences (across groups) in at least 1 of the DVs or in the DV composite Multivariate Analysis of Variance (MANOVA) • Testing the null – In ANOVA, variance is partitioned into: • SS total = SS between + SS within • so if SS between is much larger than SS within the null is probably not correct – Similar approach in MANOVA • however, SS (which are scalars) are replaced by – sums of squares and cross-product (SSCP) matrices • because we need to take correlations (covariances) of the DVs into account – we use determinants to get a summary index of variance in these matrices • like mean square in ANOVA Multivariate Analysis of Variance (MANOVA) • Omnibus tests – Wilk's • most popular test • ratio of determinanterror to determinanttotal • represents percent variance not explained • 1 - is an index of variance explained – 2, a measure of effect size – analogous to R2 in regression • want to be small, and this value is transformed into an approximate F for hypothesis-testing Multivariate Analysis of Variance (MANOVA) • Other tests include – Pillai's Trace – Hotelling's Trace – Roy's Largest (or Characteristic) Root • Statistical power – Pillai's > Wilks > Hotelling's > Roy's • Robustness to violations of assumptions – Pillai's most robust • In general, however, all 4 omnibus tests will agree Multivariate Analysis of Variance (MANOVA) • Follow-up analyses – for which DVs are there differences? • results from univariate ANOVAs are provided – like doing an ANOVA for each DV • you should use a more conservative alpha level • individual test = experimenterwise / number of DVs – ANCOVA, controlling for all other DVs – specific contrasts • simple, polynomial – posthoc comparison procedures • Tukey's, Bonferroni, etc. – conduct a discriminant function analysis (DFA) Multivariate Analysis of Variance (MANOVA) • Assumptions and practical issues of MANOVA – participants' scores on each DV are statistically independent from other participants' scores on each DV • i.e., the errors are statistically independent – evaluate intraclass correlation coefficient – multivariate normality • each DV has a normal distribution • all linear combinations of DVs have normal distributions • all "groups" must have normal distributions • and, after saying all of this, MANOVA is fairly robust to violations from normality Multivariate Analysis of Variance (MANOVA) – homogeneity of variance/covariance • variance for each DV is the same across groups/conditions • and, covariance between each pair of DVs is the same across groups/conditions (pooled for the error term) • statistically evaluate this using Box's M test and/or Bartlett's chi-square and/or Levene's test – problem: all are sensitive to small violations • if assumption is not satisfied... – continue on and don't worry about it, or – use posthoc methods such as Games-Howell, Tamhane's T2, Dunnett's C, etc. – these correct for violation of this assumption • use a conservative alpha (.001) to determine this Multivariate Analysis of Variance (MANOVA) – linearity among DVs • linear combinations for the DVs are used to maximize the separation (i.e., differences) between groups – homogeneity of regression • specific to MANCOVA • the relationship between the DVs and the covariate(s) must be the same across groups/conditions • if not, this implies that the DV-covariate relationship is not consistent across the groups of your IV • you have an IV-covariate interaction: yikes!!! Multivariate Analysis of Variance (MANOVA) • Kinds of research questions – main effects for the IVs – interactions among the IVs – importance of DVs part I • a different linear combination of DVs is created for each "effect" (i.e., for each main effect and interaction) • therefore, different DVs may be differentially influenced by type of effect – importance of DVs part II • analogous to hierarchical or sequential regression • DVs are organized in terms of their importance • Roy-Bargman stepdown analysis Multivariate Analysis of Variance (MANOVA) – effect sizes • 2, can exceed 1 because DVs are correlated • partial 2, which adjusts for the overestimation – incorporated with more sophisticated designs • inclusion of covariates for the MANCOVA • choose your covariates wisely – correlations with DVs not with the IVs – including a time element • Repeated-measures MANOVA • having multiple DVs measured on multiple occasions Multivariate Analysis of Variance (MANOVA) • Some final thoughts – Back to the type of research questions that MANOVA answers • multiple univariate questions – when DVs have low correlations • intrinsically multivariate questions – when DVs have "high" correlations ( .60 ) – used when the principal concern is how the DVs differ/change with respect to the "new" variable Multivariate Analysis of Variance (MANOVA) – select your DVs carefully • there is a danger in include too many DVs • one "bad" variable can drastically alter your results – sample size • MANOVA does require larger sample sizes than ANOVA • have to factor in number of DVs • Scott's rules of thumb – 10 participants per DV, and – minimum of 10 in each condition/group combination

Both Big Pharma and the hospital industry stand to profit greatly from healthcare reform. New customers for drugs and services will undoubtedly emerge from this legislation. So who will be getting the short end of the stick? It turns out that this may be the health insurance companies that will now face unwanted competition, perhaps in the form of a public insurance option. They may also be forced to insure some customers whom they would have rejected in the past, thus reducing their profits. Did someone say competition? That's unfair! This is America. Here are some of the details from a recent article in the Washington Post (see: Health Insurers Emerge as Obama's Top Foe in Reform Effort ):
For months, President Obama and his administration waged their fight for a health-care overhaul without a clear opponent, even courting the industry executives and interest groups that helped kill reform efforts 15 years ago. But attacks on the leading Democratic reform plan this week by the insurance lobby left little doubt that two of the most powerful institutions involved in the debate -- the White House and the nation's insurance companies -- have abandoned any real hope of forging a compromise. What was a tenuous truce has turned quickly into an all-out battle, with both sides ratcheting up the hostilities...." The insurance industry has decided to lead the charge against health reform, and everyone recognizes their motives: profits," said White House deputy communications director Dan Pfeiffer."We are going to make sure they can't sink this effort at the last minute."...The insurers, however, showed no sign of being chastened. America's Health Insurance Plans, an industry trade group, opened a fresh line of attack with a multistate advertising campaign warning that senior citizens enrolled in private Medicare plans could lose benefits under the legislation...."We want to begin to build an awareness of the potential implications to seniors," said AHIP President Karen Ignagni. She declined to say how much money would be spent on the commercials airing in six states, but one advertising analyst said the industry has enough cash to pose a serious threat.... The insurance sector and health maintenance organizations spent more than $116 million on lobbying in the first six months of this year, according to an analysis by the nonpartisan Center for Responsive Politics.
So stay tuned to see who triumphs in this quest for meaningful reform of our healthcare system. To add some spice to the conversation, we now have an estimate of the amount of money being spent on political lobbying by the health insurance and HMO organizations during the first six months of this year -- $116 million dollars. I really have no idea what the final product from Congress will look like but continue to hope for the best. In a previous note, I was very pessimistic about any sort of change (see: American Attitude toward Reform Through the Eyes of David Brooks ). Here a quote from it:
I would personally like to see some fundamental changes in our healthcare system, particularly modifications of the current fee-for-service approach that rewards unnecessary and inappropriate procedures. Such an approach is wasteful and can also harm patients. I now don't believe that such a change is going to happen. There's just too much money flowing into lobbying efforts from special interest groups representing insurance companies, big pharma, hospitals, and physicians to maintain the status quo.

I admire David Ison, who was appointed Dean of St Paul's Cathedral earlier this week, for speaking up for same-sex marriage in his first national media interview after being appointed. I'm sorry that he ruined it within days by defending the forced eviction of Occupy London Stock Exchange in language that manages to be both evasive and insulting.
Following the clamour since Tuesday morning about the involvement of St Paul's in the eviction of Occupy London Stock Exchange, the cathedral have now released another statement. It is longer than yesterday's statement, but completely fails to answer the questions that are being asked from all sides.
It is now clear that the authorities at St Paul's Cathedral were complicit in this morning's violent eviction of the Occupy London Stock Exchange camp.
I have been forcibly removed from buildings by police on several occasions, but never before have I been dragged from the steps of a church as I knelt in prayer. I am profoundly shocked to have been dragged from my knees as I prayed about economic injustice on the steps of St Paul's Cathedral.
Occupy London Stock Exchange are likely to be evicted from their camp near St Paul's Cathedral, within the next few days. I am determined to be praying at the camp as the eviction happens. Along with others, I will attempt to form a ring of prayer.
The saga of Bishop Wallace Benn and the pro-rape booklet goes on and on. Having first withdrawn his endorsement of the booklet, then apologised, he has now offered what appears to be an attempt at an explanation.
The Archbishop of York made the front page of the Daily Telegraph yesterday by saying that David Cameron would be acting "like a dictator" if he introduced legislation to recognise same-sex marriage.
Wallace Benn, the Suffragan Bishop of Lewes, has sent me an apology for his endorsement of a booklet the promotes the legalisation of rape within marriage and the criminalisation of same-sex relationships.
Places are still available on an upcoming weekend course exploring sexuality and spirituality. The course, Sex and the Spirit, will take place in Birmingham from 10th-12th February.
Wallace Benn, the Church of England's Bishop of Lewes, has today withdrawn his endorsement of a booklet by the fundamentalist campaigner Stephen Green. He issued a statement after several bloggers drew attention to his endorsement yesterday.

A discussion on the reasoning behind some of the executive sessions called by City Council was one of the many topics debated during their recent meeting.
Veolia Greentree Landfill in Fox Twp. may be under new ownership, but no significant change in operations will take place according to recent correspondence from the buyer.
At Tuesday's meeting of the Elk County Solid Waste Authority, Solid Waste/Recycling Coordinator Bekki Titchner said so far area residents were doing pretty well adhering to the new ban on disposing of electronic waste items.
As the gun control debate continues to heat up in the aftermath of the Dec. 14, 2012 shooting at Sandy Hook Elementary School in Newtown, Conn., many schools are now considering and in some cases implementing plans to arm school personnel in hopes of thwarting future incidents.
Dr. Stephen Bolstad, a St. Marys native, returned to his hometown as the guest conductor of the the recent PMEA (Pennsylvania Music Educators Association) District II Band Festival held at Elk County Catholic High School.
To kick off National Catholic Schools Week 2013, the Most Rev.

European stocks and the euro rose on optimism policymakers will take major steps at a summit this weekend to solve the festering debt crisis and offset the impact from a cut to Spain's sovereign credit rating.
October 19, 2011 3:51 by Reuters
Gold slid on Wednesday as higher hopes of a resolution to the euro zone debt crisis persuaded investors to shrug off a downgrade to Spain's credit rating and opt for equities, but a softer dollar helped provide some support.
Spot gold was bid at $1,647.24 a troy ounce at 1158 GMT from $1,658.64 an ounce late in New York on Tuesday.
European stocks and the euro rose on optimism policymakers will take major steps at a summit this weekend to solve the festering debt crisis and offset the impact from a cut to Spain's sovereign credit rating.
That was denied by senior European Union officials, but not before the tone for the day was set.
"When risk appetite increases then there's more (gold) selling," said Carsten Fritsch, an analyst at Commerzbank, adding that a main reason for the price fall since early September was forced selling to cover losses in other markets.
Gold has fallen about 15 percent since hitting a record high of $1,920.30 on September 6.
Also a factor behind lower prices has been investors choosing to buy U.S. Treasury bonds as a safe place to park assets, instead of gold. Indirectly that means demand for dollars, which when it rises makes gold more expensive for holders of other currencies.
"The dollar is softer today, but gold has been down nearly 1 percent today … That relationship appears to have gone AWOL," a precious metals trader said.
Reports that France and Germany had agreed to boost a euro zone rescue fund to two trillion euros ($2.76 trillion) came ahead of a meeting of euro zone leaders on Oct. 23 to discuss further aid for Greece.
"The situation with gold could well change should risk aversion escalate after 23 October, provided the broader market is disappointed by the EU's debt crisis management with policymakers failing to leverage the EFSF substantially and avoid a structural Greek default," VTB capital said in a note.
"Global gold (exchange traded funds) are already seeing small inflows, while physical buyers were active above recent dips."
Looking ahead, the wedding season in India is expected to generate strong physical buying interest, traders said.
"Stronger inflows into SPDR will be a good indication of investors coming back to the market," a trader said.
Holdings of the largest silver-backed ETF, New York's iShares Silver Trust dipped 0.61 percent on Tuesday from Monday, while that of the largest gold-backed exchange-traded fund (ETF), New York's SPDR Gold Trust remained unchanged for the same period.
Spot silver was bid at $31.66 an ounce from $32.03 late on Tuesday, palladium at $614.72 from $617.86 and platinum at $1,523.24 from $1,527.75.
"(Platinum) supplies are probably now ample enough that participants can afford to be more picky on price levels; a sub-$1,500 platinum price tag will most likely attract renewed demand," UBS said in a note.
"This is not the best news for platinum at this juncture, as it needs support from physical buyers. Platinum … is now embracing its identity as an industrial metal. With base metals under pressure, the white metals look set to suffer a similar fate." (Reporting by Pratima Desai; Editing by Alison Birrane)
