Cease and Desist order by Punch TV CEO a couple weeks ago publicly calling BS to several vicious bloggers! YES! Thank you Mr. Collins - cause I remember some bashers on this Board using this blog page as an attack in early May before his reply. Also the intial blogs were from 2010 and early 2011 - and as is said in one of the replies if you cant have patience with a start-up company with a vision - good luck to you!:
From May 16th, 2012:
"CEASE AND DESIST

Thanks, I am sure Steve will shed more light on Thurs as well. Go ICPA
M.D. huh, keep the training up!
Dynomite might need you at the ICPA las vegas party due to excessive happiness!!
ICPA!!!!! .... just felt like posting
Man my mind has been racing to think where this stock can be in a short time !!! I have never felt this comfortable with any stock Steve is the man period!!
Tj
...from the Punch TV press conference a couple weeks ago that I just posted - it seems like they are gearing up for a much bigger Fall 2012 distribution: I am sure that things like these and many more will be discussed on next weeks STT program if not sooner via PR.
Thanks Perchy, I since read up on capital gains and never knew how many ins and outs there are in tax consequences on selling before the one Year from date of purchase. So the gest is, anything over your initial investment when stock is sold is taxed at you personal income tax bracket if sell before one year has elapsed from time of purchased the stock which is usually 30% tax. If hold stock more than one year from time of purchase this stock and then sell you only pay 15% taxes on the gains! So these ppl that dump stock within year of purchase and buy back in to get more shares have to pay 30% tax on gains with the chance on not get back in at a lower price. Then there is the wash rule.. Wow, that is why it make ICPA even a more long term investment for me.. Thanks Perchy for bringing this to light. I am no accountant guess that is why I went into medicine... Lol cheers to ICPA'ers!!!
No kidding?? I didn't know that - the ads are always on for that place. Very interesting little factoid there, Diamond.....
I wonder if Steve came up for the idea of the " I pick things up and put them down" guy. That ad was hilarious.
Does anyone know if/when Punch will actually start broadcasting. As far as I can tell they aren't currently. The only info I can seem to find online states they are set to air last summer but as far as I can tell they still aren't on the air anywhere. Anyone can put out a fall sched but if it's not actually airing it doesn't mean much. I'm not trying to bash I just can't find any good info here and their website is red flagged by my Norton as being unsafe due to phishing bugs. Any help?
Look what Steve even did to a friends business lol: thhis guy is amazing....I know I just posted this - but I want to single this out cause its rarely mentioned....Steve's ideas often grow into nationwide realities - folks he just makes it seem easy lol:
"Mr. Samblis has help people build their businesses into National brands. Working with a friend and owner of one fledgling gym in Durham New Hampshire, Mr. Samblis developed a marketing strategy and came up with the name - Planet Fitness. His friend renamed his gym - Planet Fitness -and then took that name and concept and turned it into the most successful and fastest growing fitness franchises in the country."
http://www.imdb.com/name/nm4424314/bio
Steve was quoted in Time and Newsweek in the 90's when he was a top analyst...so you never know. Him buying his own Network (...still cant believe I am typing these words lol...) certainly will only make his Star continue to rise as rapidly as ever...:

If anyone is new here, as I have said many weeks now: dont ever bet against Steve - not wise imo...
Very true, although I still work..I own a Decorative Concrete Coatings business, been in business for 10 yrs.. But I make my own schedule and let's say I'm not working very hard these days..
True, but not a done deal yet!
If it goes through, it would benefit icpa and all at punch tv, remember a great team sweetens the pot for all!
There are IMO, very good reasons why for offer to take over punch tv, the players for all involved think maybe it is the best way to go!
Most likely you don't work hard any more, you know, like work?? Sweat, lose 5lbs. a day, fall asleep as soon as you get home! LoL
Now you are babying ICPA, and ICPA is babying you! LoL!
Brotha!: I sit right now on my own couch again. Its crazy but one of the things that I missed most these last 10 months was just not having a couch of my own to sit/lay on and do the goal of the movie Office Space lol: nothing if I want.
To be always out and about was fine, but there are times when a hotel lobby or Starbucks or small cafe just didnt cut it: you want your own couch. And think about those hang-over days some here like me have from time to time lol! - thats when you really want one....but it is amazing how you can go without most everything in your material world, and as long as healthy its all good.
So thanks and what a house-warming gift from Steve huh lol? Punch TV!
Think we will ever see Steve's face on people, newsweek, tv guide?
Is it Monday yet?.. I remember the days when I couldn't wait for weekends..
Punch TV: forget 'demographics' its about 'psychographics' lol....I think a Network like Punch TV will attract MANY lucrative advertising dollars guys: for many reasons like being hip, cutting-edge, diversity, cool, trendy, bold and etc: How could the companys of Today not want to be a part of something like this with their ad dollars?:
"Los Angeles, Calif. – Life was never easy in the busy and violent streets of South Central L.A. for Joseph E. Collins II, the Founder, President and Chief Executive Officer of Punch TV Network. Yet, rather than joining gangs and pursuing the entrepreneurial activities of the alternative economy, hardship honed Joseph’s independent spirit and sharpened the genius that was embedded in every single strand of his DNA.
And now, that will, that determinism, and an uncanny ability to see things as they can be has manifested itself in Punch TV Network. Punch TV is an urban programming experience that brings together a unique type of programming that reflects the tastes, preferences, hues, and nationalities of the new urban American – a population that includes Caucasians, African Americans, Latinos, Asians, Native Americans and citizenry of mixed ethnicities.
But, Punch TV’s “differentness” transcends the fact that it targets an urban population that is psycho-graphically rather than demographically defined. Punch TV Network, like Joseph E. Collins II, its founder, embodies the spirit and soul of independent entertainment.
• Launched on Wednesday, October 19, 2011, shortly after Columbus Day, Punch TV is, in many ways, also an explorer. Instead of spending the normal costs of $100 million to launch, Punch TV spent $10 million. Rather than launching by airing re-runs of popular and loved shows, Punch TV has 70% original programming. And now, Punch TV extends its originality even further as it introduces its Fall lineup of shows to prospective advertisers and/or their representatives. "

Great DD Buddy,
How is your ICPA Gift to you in your new swing pad!!!!
You are right on...
DF... We have been here for quite some time and will be here for a long long time to come LOL...
$ICPA will be one of the very few that make it out of the penny ranks and make it big!!!!
Great Weekend to All!!!
NOTE: Longs stay out of trouble, you do not need to engage with any naysayers directly.. Stay positive...
This time we are breaking into double digits !!!!
Punch TV is onto something: New Urban America. In a world of dozens of similar networks and channels - I could see Punch TV easily differentiating itself and creating its own bold identity. SO: if the programming is good, and again 70% of their shows will be original content: folks we could have a major winner for the ages in the penny stock world lol!
...I say this too cause notice the crowds reaction to Punch's CEO when he got up to speak at a press conference, where apparantly they already have their own Punch TV anthem song...:
"Los Angeles (I-Newswire) May 15, 2012 - The event opened with actress and recording artist, Lia Grant and the Punch TV Dancers as she sang the Punch TV anthem. Philanthropist and Community Leader, Ms. Daphna Ziman then graced the stage to share her wisdom and support for Punch TV as she presented the CEO, Mr. Joseph Collins. As Mr. Collins took the stage there was anticipation in the room. The advertising agents sat on edge to hear the definition of the New Urban America. The marketplace much sought after but very misunderstood. As he began speaking the crowd burst out in a roar with chants of Punch TV Punch TV Punch TV heard throughout the room as Mr. Collins engaged the audience and announced that Punch TV will target “The New Urban America” an America where there are no color lines and that transcend the stereotypical information that has defined Urban America. Acknowledging Punch TV’s innovativeness, he predicted that Punch will change America one household at a time. Punch TV is managed by a team of extremely gifted individuals who have came together to bring some of the most compelling programming that television can offer."

LoL!, don't get all ovet dovey on me!
Answer tou other question truthfully, it depends on stock holders!
Your choice is your choice, you make your own decisions, yes I'm in for long hall!
It had been reported that DirecTV would add Punch TV in 2011, but the channel is still not available.

Hello TEAM ICPA!: ...and good point: anyone new here or lurking again this weekend - take note of those who are 'The Longs' here....cause after this week coming up and I think the madness, excitement and pps exploding to new year highs: we will still be here.
Its easy to see for yourself too - just click on a name and see how long they have been posting here. Though most excitingly of all to me is all the new Longs we seem to pick up every week - even during these last four weeks of mostly RED days....though we did not pick up that many and our Boardmarks at times stayed same or even went down during this time: the Strong new Longs we did pick up are great.
So just like I do lol - listen more attentively to the Longs than any new bashers, new IHub members whose accounts perhaps are specifically created to bring FEAR (lol if even possible...) to the ICPA Board (hint hint: cause their short) - or other naysayers cause we Longs will still be here this Summer and Fall - excitingly awaiting the MANY HUGE DEALS done by our masterful CEO Steve that we will be able to see and enjoy on the Internet, at the checkout stands, at the gas stations, at the airports, on TV and......:
AND NOW OUR OWN RAPIDLY GROWING NATIONAL TV NETWORK?
...wtf??? lol
Thanks Perchy, that's a whole lot of GOOD info!
and I apopreciate it much. Good things coming for ICPA in the future, i am in this for the long run. i will hold my shares till ICPA hits $ 1 / share.
Perchy you have done incredible amount of DD on ICPA and i value your opinions much. Tell me something; is it too much to expect that ICPA will hit $ 1/ share in next 12 months or so?
also i wonder where you are from-- US or some other place? just askin--- you dont have to reply to that.
we at ICPA love you perchy!
Yep, been known for awhile! plus other shows!!!!!
ALL, Anything else, just go through my profile posts, almost all you need is there! Jan. 2012 to present should do it!!!

I'll paste a few more!
I imagine there was a little talking going on at the shark tank viewing party.
Top sticky says it all,plus all the good news that will be coming out June 7
on the STT radio show.
Just thinking about the Punch TV deal and how it will generate major revs. I think Daymon John will be involved with the network with advertising. Punch description states that they market new fashion trends to the African American community. I think this is a great fit for Daymon's FUBU clothing line. I imagine Daymond and Steve have something in the works.
Perchy/Others ,Why did ICPA shoot uo like this?
Missed Friday action. Wow i am v glad I still have several thousand ICPA shares for thelong run- waiting till it hits $ 1 :)
Will appreciate thorough information or if you guys would lead me to an earlier post which details WHY it rose .. the PUNCH deal? anything else?
would most sincerely apprecaite your effort... thanks in advance!
Saw their fall line up.nice to see" Static "on that line up at 10:00pm and 4:00 am mon-fri.
We will haft to wait and find out, could be good for owners, cause they are already there IMO, with ic, might be great for revenues aspect of it, plus punch gets the access steve has maybe etc.Believe the shares will be restricted plus only a few can be sold down the road! We will haft to wait and see if it falls through, cause I seen a few deals turn nope, why, cause of hidden stuff! That is what is called due diligence! Attorney goes thru all the stuff to make sure all is ok! Believe punch is clean and growing!
I believe they are! they just started with direct in 2011 I believe, do some more dd on it! kind of hard but it is there, couldn't find the revs part though cause they are a private company!
