3984) How I got cheated out of my legitimate Advertisement Revenue of $100.62 by Google Adsense's automated systems:

3984) How I got cheated out of my legitimate Advertisement Revenue of $100.62 by Google Adsense's automated systems:

I have an extremely popular blog titled exclusivecoins.blogspot.com which has a world ranking of 14 (at present) given by several rating agencies. The blog has over 4,000 informative posts and has taken 14.5 million views so far from over 219 Countries/Overseas Territories.

A couple of years back, I applied to Google Adsense for advertisements to be placed on my blog. Seeing the popularity of my blog, Google Adsense started placing advertisements on my blog in one day pending verification of the veracity of my blog/posts. They have a policy of remitting the advertisement revenue once it reaches the figure of $100. 

When my Blog reached the amount of $100, Google adsense remitted the sum of $100.62 trough a SWIFT message on 22.05.2025, BUT OMMITTED TO MENTION MY NAME in the message. 

Encl: Copy of relevant emails received by me:

Notifications on receipt of inward SWIFT message MT 103 my Bankers, State Bank of India, Main Branch, Pune, India sent me the following message:

As I am a retired officer of the State Bank of India my Bankers State Bank of India through their Main Branch Pune attempted to make the payment to my Bank account by converting the Dollar Remittance to Indian Rupees. They requested me to provide the necessary documents/request letter, which I did forthwith.

Meanwhile, they requested the Singapore Bank which had remitted the said amount to provide them the Beneficiary name.

Imagine my consternation when the Singapore Bank withdrew the remittance from India, which was intimated to me by my Bankers through the undernoted email:

IBD PUNE MAIN 00454

Mon, Jun 2, 3:18 PM (13 days ago)

to me

Dear Sir/ Madam,

Greetings of the day!

We wish to inform that sender bank has recalled the funds due to unavailability of BENEFICIARY NAME.

Please check your google account for beneficiary name and contact your sender for future payments.

Thanks and regards,

As the matter did not progress any further, I searched for the Data Centre of Google Adsense's Singapore email address, as the Remittance of $100.62 had originated from them and wrote the following email to them:

Rajeev Prasad <rajeevprasad1208@gmail.com>

Jun 15, 2025, 9:00 AM (1 day ago)

Dear Sir,

I have a popular blog - exclusivecoins.blogspot.com which has been viewed by 15.5 million viewers worldwide and has been visited by over 219 countries/Overseas Territories. I am a Senior Citizen based in India.

Google Adsense advertisements are being placed on my blog for some time now. Upon reaching a threshold limit of $100, the funds were remitted to India through a SWIFT message received by my Bankers - State Bank of India on 22.05.2025. However, in the SWIFT message Beneficiary's name was not included, hence your Bankers recalled the Remittance.

Thereafter, I have approached Google Help (available on my Dashboard) Google Help Community etc. but I am now at my wit's ends as to how to go about receiving my legitimate ADSENSE Revenue.

Please look into the matter and arrange to have the said amount re-remitted to me at the earliest. In case any other particulars are required, please let me know and I would try and furnish them.

(RAJEEV PRASAD)

I received an automated message/response from Google Data Centre as  follows:

Google Data Centers Singapore <singaporedc+noreply@google.com>

Jun 15, 2025, 9:00 AM (1 day ago)

to me

Hi there,

This email is used for the administration of the Google Data Center grant program for Singapore.

If you are enquiring about this issue, we’ll get back to you as soon as possible.

If you are enquiring about something else, you should not expect to receive a response beyond this email.

If you’re experiencing any product-related issues, please visit our Help Center - https://support.google.com/

We are unable to support requests to visit Google. We encourage you to visit https://about.google/ for more information about Google.

Clearly, I had hit a stone wall as none of these sites/forums could help me to find a solution and was back to square one:

- Not including my name in the SWIFT message was clearly an unusual ommission on the part of the Singapore Bank managing the financial transactions of Google Data Centre.

- Now it stands to reason that in case my payment is not received during a reasonable time, I would be left with no alternative but to withdraw permission to Google Adsense to place advertisements on my blog.

3983) Isaz Rune: A 1 oz Ag 999.9 Cast Rune minted by the Germania Mint: Date/Year of Rune issue: 2025:

 3983) Isaz Rune: A 1 oz Ag 999.9 Cast    Rune  minted by the Germania Mint: Date/Year of Rune issue: 2025:

The Header/Banner presents in Runes in Colour and the Isaz Rune

Description:

Old Norse Yngvi [ˈyŋɡwe], Old High German Ing/Ingwi and Old English Ing are names that relate to a theonym which appears to have been the older name for the god Freyr. Proto-Germanic Ingwaz was the legendary ancestor of the Ingaevones, or more accurately Ingvaeones, and is also the reconstructed name of the Elder Futhark rune ᛜ and Anglo-Saxon rune.

Old Norse Yngvi as well as Old High German Inguin and Old English Ingƿine are all derived from the Proto-Germanic *Ingwaz. Sound changes in late-Proto-Germanic transformed *Ingwaz into *Ingwi(z) in the nominative case and *Ingwin in the accusative case. His epithet *Fraujaz appears in Old Norse compounds Ingvifreyr and Ingunarfreyr.

In Beowulf we see Hrothgar called (OE) fréa inguina, which means 'Lord of the Inguins', i.e. lord of the Ingvaeones, the 'friends of Ing'. This strongly indicates that the two deities, Ing and Freyr are indeed the same. However, it is also possible that Ing and Freyr were separate people because they had different fathers. Ing's father was Mannus.

Freyr's father was Njörðr. The Ingvaeones, who occupied a territory roughly equivalent to modern Denmark, Frisia, Northern Germany, and the Low Countries at the turn of the millennium, were mentioned by Pliny the Elder in his Natural Histories as one of "five Germanic tribes". Tacitus asserts their descent from the three sons of Mannus or *Mannaz cognate with Manus in Hinduism, the 'first man', of whom *Ingwaz may have been one. Other names that retain the theonym are Inguiomerus or Ingemar and Yngling, the name of an old Scandinavian dynasty.

The ŋ rune  together with Peorð and Eihwaz is among the problematic cases of runes of uncertain derivation unattested in early inscriptions. The rune may have been an original innovation, or it may have been adapted from the classical Latin alphabet's Q. The rune first appears independently on the futhark row of the Kylver Stone, and is altogether unattested as an independent rune outside of such rows. There are a number of attestations of the i͡ŋ bind rune  or  (the "lantern rune", similar in shape to the Anglo-Saxon gēr rune ᛄ), but its identification is disputed in most cases, since the same sign may also be a cipher rune of “wynn” or “thurisaz”.

The earliest case of such an i͡ŋ bindrune of reasonably certain reading is the inscription mari͡ŋs (perhaps referring to the "Mærings" or Ostrogoths on the silver buckle of Szabadbattyán, dated to the first half 5th century and conserved at the Hungarian National Museum in Budapest).

The Old English rune poem contains these obscure lines:

ᛝ Ing ƿæs ærest mid Eástdenum

geseƿen secgum, oð he síððan e[á]st

ofer ƿæg geƿát. ƿæn æfter ran.

þus Heardingas þone hæle nemdon.

"ᛝ Ing was first amidst the East Danes

seen by men, until he eastward

over the sea departed; his wagon ran after.

Thus the Heardings named that hero."

A torc, the so-called "Ring of Pietroassa", part of a late third to fourth century Gothic hoard discovered in Romania, is inscribed in much-damaged runes, one reading of which is gutanī [i(ng)]wi[n] hailag "to Ingwi[n] of the Goths holy".

In Norse mythology, Yngvi, alternatively spelled Yngve, was the progenitor of the Yngling lineage, a legendary dynasty of Swedish kings, from whom also the earliest historical Norwegian kings claimed to be descended. Yngvi is a name of the god Freyr, perhaps Freyr's true name, as freyr means 'lord' and has probably evolved from a common invocation of the god.

In the Íslendingabók (written in the early twelfth century by the Icelandic priest Ari Þorgilsson) Yngvi Tyrkja konungr 'Yngvi king of Turkey' appears as the father of Njörðr who in turn is the father of Yngvi-Freyr, ancestor of the Ynglings. According to the Skjöldunga saga (a lost epic from 1180 to 1200, saved only partially in other sagas and later translation) Odin came from Asia and conquered Northern Europe. He gave Sweden to his son Yngvi and Denmark to his son Skjöldr. Since then the kings of Sweden were called Ynglings and those of Denmark Skjöldungs.

In the Gesta Danorum (late twelfth century, by Saxo Grammaticus) and in the Ynglinga saga (ca. 1225, by Snorri Sturluson), Freyr is euhemerized as a king of Sweden. In the Ynglinga saga, Yngvi-Freyr reigned in succession to his father Njörðr who had – in this variant – succeeded Odin. In the Historia Norwegiæ (written around 1211), in contrast, Ingui is the first king of Sweden, and the father of a certain Neorth, in his turn the father of Froyr: "Rex itaque Ingui, quem primum Swethiæ monarchiam rexisse plurimi astruunt, genuit Neorth, qui vero genuit Froy; hos ambos tota illorum posteritas per longa sæcula ut deos venerati sunt. Froyr vero genuit Fiolni, qui in dolio medonis dimersus est […]"

In the introduction to his Edda (originally composed around 1220) Snorri Sturluson claimed again that Odin reigned in Sweden and relates: "Odin had with him one of his sons called Yngvi, who was king in Sweden after him; and those houses come from him that are named Ynglings." Snorri here does not identify Yngvi and Freyr, although Freyr occasionally appears elsewhere as a son of Odin instead of a son of Njörðr.

In the Skáldskaparmál section of his Prose Edda Snorri brings in the ancient king Halfdan the Old who is the father of nine sons whose names are all words meaning "king" or "lord" in Old Norse, as well as of nine other sons who are the forefathers of various royal lineages, including "Yngvi, from whom the Ynglings are descended". But rather oddly Snorri immediately follows this with information on what should be four other personages who were not sons of Halfdan but who also fathered dynasties, and names the first of these again as "Yngvi, from whom the Ynglings are descended". In the related account in the Ættartolur "Genealogies" attached to Hversu Noregr byggðist, the name Skelfir appears instead of Yngvi in the list of Halfdan's sons.

The Ynglinga Saga section of Snorri's Heimskringla (around 1230) introduces a second Yngvi, son of Alrekr, who is a descendant of Yngvi-Freyr and who shared the Swedish kingship with his brother Álf (see Yngvi and Alf).

- The runic alphabet (Elder Futhark) is a script once used by Germanic peoples. According to beliefs, the god Odin sacrificed his life to receive knowledge of runic magic so he could share it with others. 

- The alphabet, which consists of 24 characters called runes, was carved in various materials: wood, bone, metal, and most often in stone. 

- Each rune has a specific sound and meaning. 

- Runes also accompany the Valkyries, goddesses and daughters of Odin, who support soldiers who have fallen in battle.

Isaz 1 oz Ag 999.9 Cast Rune

The Isaz Rune halts the course of events, bringing inner calm, focus, and perspective. 

Its energy encourages reflection, offering support during times of stagnation and apparent lack of progress. It teaches patience and reveals the value of silence as a source of strength and insight. It protects against impulsive decisions, creating space for conscious choices. 

Isaz helps maintain composure in difficult situations, supports the process of inner transformation, and strengthens mental and spiritual resilience.
