SEC subpoenas, obtained by The Dallas Morning News, list more than 100 people and companies, and corporate records show that many of those companies tie back to a common group of Dallas-area business people. One person who comes up again and again is a former SEC attorney who used to enforce the nation's securities laws.
Exclusive: SEC investigating possible 'pump-and-dump' scam
Inquiry looks into whether network victimized stock buyers
03:16 AM CDT on Sunday, March 25, 2007
http://www.dallasnews.com/sharedcontent/dws/bus/stories/032507dnmetsecinvestigate.40477d8.html#
By BRENDAN M. CASE and MICHAEL GRABELL / The Dallas Morning News
bcase@dallasnews.com; mgrabell@dallasnews.com
The stock tips hit millions of fax machines and e-mail accounts.
"Get filthy rich as the recovery begins," said one message after Hurricane Katrina. "Double profit opportunities from America's energy crisis," said another.
With spam stocks, in for a penny, in for a pounding
Investors bought into an Illinois roofing business, an Oklahoma company advertising a cancer-treating nose spray and an Addison producer of a video series, Racetrack Girls Go Nutz.
At first, the shares soared on the penny stock market, a loosely regulated bazaar of small-time companies where some investors seek to buy a piece of the next big thing.
Then, after sell-offs by some lucky or well-informed investors, the stocks plunged, taking millions from the pockets of recent buyers.
The losers in such cases often blame bad fortune. But the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission is investigating whether they were victims of fax and e-mail stock scams orchestrated by a group of lawyers, accountants, brokers and consultants – many in the Dallas area.
The group "may have manipulated or attempted to manipulate the share price of certain companies by making false or misleading statements to the public," said SEC enforcement lawyer Kevin Muhlendorf, in an affidavit filed in federal court in Washington, D.C.
The SEC won't discuss particulars of its investigation, but such classic "pump-and-dump" scams are a high priority for the agency because e-mail spam and instant online stock trading make small investors more vulnerable than ever.
"With the Internet technology, there is so much more ability to get to the retail investors through their computers," said Kit Addleman, associate director of enforcement for the SEC's regional office in Fort Worth.
SEC inquiry
The two-year investigation into what officials call the "shell creation group" is being handled from SEC headquarters in Washington, D.C.
SEC subpoenas, obtained by The Dallas Morning News, list more than 100 people and companies, and corporate records show that many of those companies tie back to a common group of Dallas-area business people. One person who comes up again and again is a former SEC attorney who used to enforce the nation's securities laws.
SEC officials cautioned that inquiries don't always lead to legal proceedings and that subpoenas don't mean that the people named in them have broken the law. The SEC hasn't publicly said which individuals may be under scrutiny, or identified everyone who profited from the stock trades.
But two civil lawsuits filed in Dallas allege that specific people profited from manipulating stock in companies that are part of the SEC investigation.
National Storm Management Inc., the roofing firm whose stock soared and plunged after Katrina, makes such allegations against David Gordon, a Tulsa, Okla., securities lawyer. He was once sued unsuccessfully by his brother, accused of orchestrating a stock fraud on the family jewelry business in Conroe, Texas.
The company with the racetrack video, Consolidated Sports Media Group Inc., sued Dallas lawyer Phillip Offill. He spent 15 years in the SEC's Fort Worth office and until recently was a partner in the law firm Godwin Pappas Langley Ronquillo LLP.
Mr. Gordon and Mr. Offill deny any wrongdoing. They say they are the victims of the companies' own mismanagement and misdeeds. And the business people accused of stock manipulation in the civil lawsuits contend that they lost money as company managers profited.
"This is a big, huge investigation the SEC is doing that involves well over 100 companies," said Jules Slim, an Irving lawyer representing people accused of stock fraud in both lawsuits. "We're not really sure who they're going after. The plaintiffs are simply capitalizing on the fact that those people have been subpoenaed."
So far, the SEC investigation has resulted in only one penalty.
On Jan. 17, the SEC announced an agreement with John Shrewder, an Oklahoma stock promoter accused of sending out 87 million faxes in 2004 and 2005 to manipulate the stock price of Artec Inc., the business with the anti-cancer drug, and other companies.
Mr. Shrewder did not admit or deny wrongdoing, but he acknowledged liability for $1,031,000 in improper trading profits and interest. But he will have to pay back only $150,000 to the U.S. government under a settlement with the SEC that considered his financial condition.
And this month, as part of a crackdown on e-mail stock fraud called Operation Spamalot, the SEC suspended trading in four companies that listed Mr. Offill as corporate counsel in disclosure reports. He also had ties to four others, including one that listed a company he controlled, Supreme City Holdings, as a major shareholder.
Mr. Offill denied ownership interest in the Spamalot companies and said he formed Supreme City Holdings on behalf of a client, whom he wouldn't identify. When asked about another company in which a firm he controlled owned stock, Mr. Offill said he couldn't discuss client matters.
Two of the Spamalot companies also showed up on SEC subpoenas related to the investigation into the shell creation group.
Taking a risk
Why would anyone send out 87 million faxes, or tens of millions of e-mails?
Because, experts say, in some cases, they're a good way to separate investors from their money.
Researchers at Purdue University and Oxford University recently found that electronically pumped stocks show "a significantly positive return" at first and then tend to collapse, leaving unsuspecting investors with big losses that they often attribute to the gamble of the stock market.
"What are you going to do? It was a risk and I took it," said Jon Browar, a Consolidated Sports shareholder who owns a screen-printing business outside Kansas City. "My kids aren't going to go without because of this, but in the same respect, there's a lot more I can do with $3,000."
Federal and state laws prohibit the distribution of unsolicited faxes to hype a stock. Both junk faxes and spam e-mails may violate securities laws if they contain falsehoods about a company or if promoters don't disclose that they have been paid to tout a stock.
For example, the SEC alleged that the Artec faxes understated Artec's debt and the number of shares available to make each share appear more valuable.
Moreover, while Mr. Shrewder's faxes urged other investors to buy shares, he was selling them.
"Shrewder was actively selling Artec shares for less than $.50 while he was recommending that others buy them until the price reaches between $2 and $4," the SEC said in its complaint.
Mr. Shrewder said in a court filing that he was unaware of any misrepresentations in the faxes. He also said he had disclosed in the faxes that he might trade in the shares. In an interview, he said his faxes only went to people who asked to receive them.
Expanded inquiry
The SEC opened its Artec investigation in December 2004 after officials noticed suspicious trading and price movements. By June 2005, the investigation had expanded to reflect interest in the larger circle of people who appeared to be involved in what the SEC came to call the "shell creation group."
After Katrina, e-mails and faxes enticed investors to buy shares in National Storm and in Deep Rock Oil & Gas Inc., an Oklahoma energy company. National Storm's stock price rose from 51 cents to $2.41. Deep Rock's price increased tenfold, to $1.11. Within months, both fell to less than a quarter a share.
Phone records of a Florida investor – who the SEC alleges played a role in producing and disseminating the faxes – showed several calls to numbers associated with the Dallas-based shell group, the SEC said.
Some of those phone calls, listed in SEC court documents, trace back to Mr. Gordon, the Tulsa lawyer for Deep Rock who also helped take National Storm public.
National Storm has sued Mr. Gordon, accusing him of masterminding stock manipulation schemes.
"The Shell Creation Group's activities frequently prove ruinous to the legitimate private companies they deceive," National Storm said in court documents.
Mr. Slim, who is representing Mr. Gordon and others in the lawsuit, said the company's counterclaim is a distraction from the original complaint. The lawsuit was filed against National Storm by Trucolor Inc., which is partly owned by Mr. Gordon.
Trucolor alleged in the lawsuit that National Storm cheated it by breaching a loan that had been induced through fraud.
In an interview, Mr. Gordon said that he had followed all securities laws and that he believed the information released by Deep Rock and National Storm was accurate. He said he didn't know who distributed the blast faxes.
"Believe me, I do not do pump-and-dumps," he said.
Consolidated Sports
The Consolidated Sports lawsuit alleges Mr. Offill and others made millions of dollars by perpetrating a pump-and-dump scam on the company's stock.
The company says Mr. Offill arranged for a merger with an inactive corporation to use a legal loophole that gave investors millions of freely tradable shares that didn't have to be registered with the SEC. Mr. Offill brought investors into Consolidated Sports, including companies that he controlled, the lawsuit says.
In November 2004, a junk fax went out touting the stock. Consolidated Sports lawyers say the fax was approved by Mr. Offill and drafted by one of his associates.
"The specific intent behind the blast fax was to cause the price of the stock in CSMG to spike upward, after which Offill's friends, clients and business associates, and entities controlled by Offill, would sell their stock, leaving the other shareholders and the innocent purchasers to bear the losses," Consolidated Sports' lawsuit says.
Mr. Offill, who has also been a lawyer for Artec, declined to be interviewed, referring questions to his lawyer, Richard Sayles. In January, Mr. Offill left Godwin Pappas to pursue his own practice, Mr. Sayles said. Mr. Offill said in a deposition that he didn't know about the blast fax until after it was sent.
"A fax of this nature – that appears oriented towards providing investor awareness on a public basis – is something that an issuer should never send," he said.
A trial in the Consolidated Sports lawsuit is expected this year.
A WEB OF LAWSUITS AND SUBPOENAS
Corporate records and lawsuits indicate the following people have ties to the Securities and Exchange Commission's investigation of the "shell creation group." SEC inquiries do not necessarily lead to legal proceedings or indicate that people named in subpoenas have broken any law.
DAVID GORDON
A Tulsa, Okla., securities lawyer, Mr. Gordon, 45, has been accused of stock fraud in several lawsuits, including one from Consolidated Sports Media Group Inc. and another brought unsuccessfully by his brother. He was the lawyer for Deep Rock Oil & Gas Inc. and helped take National Storm Management Inc. public. In a lawsuit, National Storm called him a mastermind of pump-and-dump schemes. More than a half-dozen companies on a subpoena issued to a Dallas brokerage have ties to him. He and his associates have denied wrongdoing.
PHILLIP OFFILL
A former SEC enforcement attorney in Fort Worth, Mr. Offill, 48, was a partner until recently at Godwin Pappas Langley Ronquillo LLP in Dallas. He was a corporate lawyer for Artec and Consolidated Sports. Consolidated Sports says that he helped orchestrate a pump-and-dump scheme on its stock using a junk fax and that two companies he controlled profited. He says he never saw the blast fax before it went out. Some three dozen companies mentioned in the SEC subpoenas list him as an officer, corporate counsel, or in some other capacity. In other cases, one of his companies is listed as a major shareholder. He denies any wrongdoing.
MARK LINDBERG
An amateur golfer, Mr. Lindberg, 39, of Coppell, helped take Consolidated Sports and National Storm public, according to Consolidated Sports court documents and National Storm annual reports. Consolidated Sports said in its lawsuit that Mr. Lindberg paid investor Doyle Mark White for arranging a junk fax touting its stock. Nearly 20 companies on the SEC subpoenas list Mr. Lindberg as an officer or consultant, or one of his companies as a major shareholder. And he received several calls from a Florida investor the SEC says played a role in the junk faxes after Hurricane Katrina. Mr. Lindberg declined an interview but denied the allegations in court documents. In a deposition, he said that he's never been involved in a pump-and-dump scheme and that he transferred the money to Mr. White's firm on behalf of another company.
DOYLE MARK WHITE
Consolidated Sports said in its lawsuit that Mr. White, 49, of Colleyville, sent a junk fax touting its stock behind the company's back. Mr. White, a former Irving stockbroker, was barred from the U.S. securities industry last year, accused of manipulating a separate penny stock. In the settlement, he did not admit or deny wrongdoing. Mr. White did not respond to requests for an interview. In a deposition, he said he sent the fax to a distribution service after Consolidated Sports approved it. The company denies that.
GARY ZINN
Described as an international businessman with ties to Bulgaria, Mr. Zinn, of Rancho Cucamonga, Calif., was sued by the SEC for not answering a subpoena related to the stocks of National Storm and Deep Rock, which were allegedly manipulated after Katrina. A judge ordered him to comply, and the case was dismissed. The SEC said in court documents that Mr. Zinn has ties to two companies managed in London, High Charm Ltd. and Putnam International Consulting, which each made more than $50,000 trading in the stocks. Putnam had paid a marketing company to distribute the junk faxes, according to a disclaimer on the faxes. High Charm and Putnam were also top shareholders in Consolidated Sports. Mr. Zinn and his lawyer did not return phone calls seeking comment.
JOSHUA LANKFORD
An entrepreneur who once sold neckties in downtown skyscrapers, Mr. Lankford, 33, became one of the most successful stockbrokers at Dallas brokerage Barron Moore Inc., even becoming part owner before leaving. In its lawsuit, Consolidated Sports says he participated in a pump-and-dump on its stock. He denied the allegations in a deposition, saying he warned company executives that he couldn't raise money for them until they had revenue.
CHASITY THOMPSON AND JASON FREEMAN
As a business consultant, Ms. Thompson, 28, helped incorporate Artec, Consolidated Sports and National Storm. Plano-based Routh Stock Transfer Inc., which she ran with Mr. Freeman, 31, served as a transfer agent for National Storm, Deep Rock and about 10 other companies listed on SEC subpoenas. Ms. Thompson and Mr. Freeman were consultants for several other companies on the subpoenas. Consolidated Sports alleges that Ms. Thompson falsified corporate records to help commit fraud on its stock. Her attorney said she has done nothing wrong. Earlier this month, Mr. Freeman filed a shareholder lawsuit against Consolidated Sports, saying the company fraudulently funneled money to a consultant who used it to repay investors in past failed ventures. Consolidated Sports lawyers said that hundreds of hours of video footage show the money was spent legitimately.

System sleuthing helps SEC snare fraudsters
Stock market scams leave IT footprints, investigators say
By Wilson P. Dizard III, GCN Staff
"When spam clogs our mailboxes, it’s annoying. When it rips off investors, it’s illegal and destructive." — SEC Chairman Christopher Cox Image: Rick Steele
Federal securities law enforcers are honing their IT tools for detecting and prosecuting stock market fraud, as shown by recent enforcement actions against spammers and hackers who allegedly used the Internet in their illegal schemes.
The Securities and Exchange Commission recently suspended trading in the stock of 35 companies allegedly involved in spam campaigns aimed at rigging prices.
Operation Spamalot targeted spam blasts aimed at gulling investors into purchasing the stock of small, lightly traded companies so the alleged fraudsters could profit from the subsequent price bubble. SEC is continuing to investigate “the accuracy and adequacy of statements” made by the 35 Operation Spamalot companies, according to Bruce Karpati, assistant regional director of the commission’s Northeast Regional Office.
“We are using innovative computer forensic methods to detect and pursue the spammers, Karpati said. “The fact is that by using our [IT] abilities, we are tracking down violators offshore.”
“When spam clogs our mailboxes, it’s annoying. When it rips off investors, it’s illegal and destructive,” said SEC chairman Christopher Cox. “[The] trading suspensions, and actions that will follow, should send a clear message to spammers: The SEC will hold you accountable.”
John Reed Stark, chief of the commission’s Office of Internet Enforcement, offered more details on how SEC investigates computer-based stock fraud.
In a separate case from Operation Spamalot, Stark’s office worked with the U.S. Attorney’s Office for the District of Nebraska, as well as officials from Justice and several stock exchanges, to charge three offshore hackers with hijacking online brokerage accounts and with stock manipulation, in a case unveiled on March 12.
The alleged hackers, all Indian nationals, were charged with stealing from legitimate brokerage accounts to manipulate the stock prices of Google Inc., Sun Microsystems Inc. and 12 other companies. “These are not [anonymous] hackers trying to tamper with the energy grid,” Stark said. “They have to show themselves, because they want to make a profit.”
Stark said SEC investigators had relied on audit trails to “quickly and comfortably” track down violators.
“In these situations, there are always three trails: the Internet Protocol trail, the trading trail and the money trail,” Stark said. “If they do anything in connection with a security, we are going to know who they are, where they are and what they are doing.”
Stark said that securities law enforcers “have some nifty ways of tracking them down, as well.
“We were able to determine that the computers used to hack into the accounts and also to make the [related] profitable trades were one and the same,” Stark said. “I think it’s very difficult to—with confidence—completely cover your tracks [in these computer fraud cases],” Stark said.

Found your board this morning, have read every post. You folks are my kind of people. been getting deleted pretty regular on most boards. In my opinion, more stock losses, are caused by the moronic moderaters , that marry themselves to the company, or the CEOS. Nearly every company would not have a leg to stand on, for the sh##y share prices, if the so called bashers, and shorters were taken out of the equation. Moderaters or the CEOS can never answer a direct question.
Currently working on a scam list. trying to figure out which is a bigger one, Russian oil and gas, South America gold mines, and every precious metal known to man kind that happens to be in the mine with the gold. Or last, the rest of the scams around the world, gold, oil, biofuel, and uranium.
M ost of these companies have the same theme, billions of dollars in recoverable assets in the ground. Companies come to mind, NWOG, AURC, GBDX, EQBM, EAGM, MGMX, PAIM, PHGI,. These are just a few of many. Red flags to me are the USUAL SUSPECTS, certain moderaters and posters, seem to have the kiss of death, on a stock's share price. They seem to fall for the same old BULLS##T everytime. What I need help on is putting the these stocks in order, Shi##est one first and so on. Must state all the above in my not so humble opinion. Peace, the friendly Indian
IRONY = (as per Webster’s) 3 a (1) : incongruity between the actual result of a sequence of events and the normal or expected result (2) : an event or result marked by such incongruity
CKYS fleecing the sheep while using this fruity Burglar Mascot to embody their company, is the epitome of ironic.
Yep,...give it some time and it will form a trading pattern. They are a for real company, smartmoney leaving and waiting to trade it.
There will be .000's again for certain, and I may pick up for a MOMO bounce, but until they have anything verifiable, it is a GIANT POS in my book, although the CEO seems to actually know what he is doing, and I like that about the co. Plus, its Incorporated in Delaware, so no stock printing like Nevada Pinkies.
It's topped imo. MACD going down about to cross and RSI down. It's headed back down the other side of the hill it formed.
The CEO actually seems like he might be decent, and the press is unheard of for a pinkie. I may even pick it up if the price were right. Fact of the matter is, its way overvalued. Even if they sold 30,000 Urns, at $1500 each, that would be $45M revenue, over 3.5B shares would be .012. That is not factoring in any costs. They got $50k in revenue last quarter, but ran up $500k in expenses. Way overvalued for the current mode, and that is with a factor of 30,000 Urns, which until they have numbers out and production capacity, I'm not even going to touch
Well...I know a guy that made a 10 bagger for 800k off Etim. Wish it were me.
Kind of like this guy.

You Don't Mess Around With Jim
Uptown got its hustlers
Bowery got its bums
And 42nd street got big Jim Plant
He's a pool shootin' son of a gun
Ya, he's big and dumb as a con-man can come
But stronger than a country hoss
And when the bad folks all get together at night
You know they all call big Jim boss, just because, and they say
{Refrain}
You don't tug on Superman's cape
You don't spit into the wind
You don't pull the mask off the old Lone Ranger
And you don't mess around with Jim, da do da do...
Well out of south Alabama come a country boy
He said, "I'm looking for a man named Jim
I am a pool shootin' boy, my name is Willie McCoy
But down home they call me Slim
And I'm looking for the king of 42nd street
He's driving a drop top Cadillac
Last week he took all my money, and it may sound funny
But I've come to get my money back," and everybody said, Jack, don't you know
{Refrain}
Well a hush fell over the pool room
When Jim he come boppin' off the street
And when the cuttin' was done
The only part that wasn't bloody was the soles of the big man's feet
And he was cut in 'bout a hundred places
And he was shot in a couple more
And you better believe they sung a different kind of story
When big Jim hit the floor
{As refrain}
You don't tug on Superman's cape
You don't spit into the wind
You don't pull the mask off the old Lone Ranger
And you don't mess around with Slim, da, do, da, do...
{Repeat}
{Spoken}
Yeah, big Jim got his hat[head]
Find out where it's at
And not hustling people strange to you
Even if you do got a two piece custom made pool cue
c'mon GG, brent is just drinking some cool ice tea and supporting his "friends," scam CEOs like CKYS Jim Plant and SLJB Petar Vucicevich.
just ask yourself, WWJD?
some of the biggest scammer-posters in the Urban C_ass_avant CMKX army constantly invoked God in their 700+Billion share grift.

SEC charges CyberKey, CEO with stock hype scheme
Reuters - March 20, 2007 10:30 AM ET
WASHINGTON, March 20 (Reuters) - Securities regulators said on Tuesday they have charged Utah-based CyberKey Solutions Inc. CKYS.PK and its chief executive with promoting a stock offering while hyping false information of a lucrative deal with the Department of Homeland Security.
CyberKey and its chief executive, James Plant, made at least $1.5 million from an unregistered offering of company shares between November 2005 and the present, the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission said.
The investor protection agency said the company promoted the stock offering with a series of false press releases about a purchase order worth more than $24 million from the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) for CyberKey's flash memory drives.
Attorneys for CyberKey and Plant were not immediately available for comment.
"CyberKey and its CEO orchestrated an intense fraud campaign that clearly duped investors - in the three months leading up to the first of CyberKey's alleged multiple false press releases, CyberKey trading volume was just over 550,000 shares per day - but once the scheme began, daily trading volume swelled dramatically to between 10 million and 80 million shares per day," said Cheryl Scarboro, the SEC's enforcement division associate director, in a statement.
Plant is also facing a criminal case and was arrested last week by the FBI on charges of securities fraud and aiding and abetting securities fraud, the SEC said.

Cyberkey CEO accused of fraud
WASHINGTON
Federal authorities have accused the CEO of Cyberkey Solutions Inc. of defrauding investors by selling unregistered stock and falsely claiming the company had a lucrative purchase order from the Department of Homeland Security.
The Securities and Exchange Commission announced Tuesday that it had filed civil fraud charges against Cyberkey and its chief executive, James Plant, in federal court in Philadelphia. In addition, federal prosecutors on March 12 filed a criminal complaint against Plant, who was arrested by FBI agents the following day in St. George, Utah, where Cyberkey is based, on charges of securities fraud.
By law, the prosecutors have 30 days from the time the complaint was filed to secure an indictment.
Plant's attorney, Gary Krupkin, said he hadn't yet seen details of the charges and had no immediate comment. After Plant was arrested, he was released a few hours later and a date for a court appearance is being worked out with the U.S. attorney's office in Philadelphia, Krupkin said in a telephone interview.
The SEC is seeking unspecified civil fines against Plant and Cyberkey as well as restitution of allegedly ill-gotten gains.
The SEC said that from November 2005 to the present, Plant and Cyberkey promoted the sale of company shares -- not registered with the agency -- with a series of false press releases saying that Cyberkey had won a contract worth over $24 million to provide portable "flash" computer memory drives to the Department of Homeland Security.
There was no such contract, the SEC said. In an "intense fraud campaign," Plant and Cyberkey made at least $1.5 million from selling the shares to unwitting investors while making the false claims, the agency said.

Conrad Black Stole $60 Million From Hollinger, U.S. Prosecutor Claims
By Andrew Harris and Bob Van Voris
March 20 (Bloomberg) -- Conrad Black used his position as chief executive officer of Hollinger International Inc. to steal almost $60 million from the company, a U.S. prosecutor said at the start of Black's fraud and racketeering trial.
Assistant U.S. Attorney Jeffrey Cramer today began laying out the government's fraud case against Black and three other former Hollinger executives in federal court in Chicago.
``Bank robbers wear masks and use guns,'' Cramer told the jury in his opening statement. ``These four men used lawyers and accountants and wore ties and a suit.''
Prosecutors claim that Black, 62, used Hollinger, once the third-biggest English-language newspaper publisher, as his personal ``piggy bank'' and that he and others stole from the company during a sell-off of almost $3 billion in company assets from 1998 to 2001.
Black is charged with racketeering, obstruction of justice, money laundering and mail, wire and tax fraud. If convicted, he may spend the rest of his life in prison. Hollinger, which once owned the Chicago Sun-Times, London's Daily Telegraph and the Jerusalem Post, changed its name to Sun-Times Media Group Inc. last year.
Black's lawyers have maintained their client's innocence, saying nothing he did violated the law.
Also charged in the case are John Boultbee, Hollinger's former chief financial officer; Peter Atkinson, a former executive vice president; and Mark Kipnis, Hollinger's former general counsel. All have pleaded not guilty to multiple counts of wire fraud, mail fraud and tax fraud.
First Witness
After prosecutors finish their opening arguments today, they will be followed by lawyers for Black and his co-defendants. The first witness for the prosecution will be Gordon Paris, who took over as Hollinger's interim chief executive officer after Black was forced to step down in 2003.
Opening statements were delayed one day after defense attorneys told U.S. District Judge Amy St. Eve they were worried that news reports of legal settlements by a prosecution witness may have tainted the jury.
David Radler, Hollinger's former president and chief operating officer, agreed last week to pay $72 million to settle claims by Sun-Times Media Group and the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission.
Radler, who was Black's business partner for more than 35 years, pleaded guilty to fraud in September 2005. He agreed to cooperate with prosecutors in return for a recommendation that he serve 29 months in prison and pay a $250,000 fine. Radler is expected to testify during the trial.
St. Eve initially told the lawyers she would question the jurors individually and in chambers to learn if they had heard or read accounts of the Radler settlements. Two hours later, her clerk announced the trial's start would be postponed for a full day, without further explanation.
Joel Daly, a spokesman for the court, declined to comment on the reasons for the delay. Randall Samborn, a spokesman for Chicago U.S. Attorney Patrick Fitzgerald also declined to comment, as did lawyers for Black and Boultbee.
Lawyers say the trial may last three months.
The case is U.S. v. Black, 05cr727, U.S. District Court, Northern District of Illinois (Chicago).

re CKYS - U.S. SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION
Litigation Release No. 20049 / March 20, 2007
SEC v. Cyberkey Solutions, Inc. and James E. Plant, Civ. Action No. 07 1084 (CMR) (E.D. Pa)
SEC Charges That Company and CEO Promoted Stock With Phony Homeland Security Deal
The Securities and Exchange Commission ("Commission") today announced the filing of a civil injunctive action alleging that a Utah-based corporation and its Chief Executive Officer made at least $1.5 million selling shares while disseminating false claims of a lucrative purchase order from the Department of Homeland Security.
In its complaint, filed today in the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Pennsylvania, the Commission alleged that CyberKey Solutions, Inc. of St. George, Utah ("CyberKey") and its CEO James E. Plant ("Plant," collectively, the "Defendants"), between November 2005 and the present, have engaged in an ongoing unregistered offering of Cyberkey shares, promoted with a series of false press releases describing a putative purchase order worth in excess of $24 million from the U.S. Department of Homeland Security ("DHS") to buy CyberKey's flash memory drives. In fact, the Commission's complaint alleges, CyberKey had no business relationship at all, either directly or indirectly, with DHS. Additionally, according to the complaint, CyberKey and Plant made other false statements to unsuspecting investors, including statements claiming CyberKey had shipped products to DHS and received payments pursuant to the phony purchase order, and that CyberKey was in the process of preparing and releasing audited financials.
The Commission's complaint further alleges, that, as a result of their scheme, the Defendants violated Sections 5(a), 5(c) and 17(a) of the Securities Act of 1933 and Section 10(b) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and Rule 10b-5 thereunder, and seeks as relief permanent injunctions against future violations of these provisions by the Defendants, and disgorgement of all the Defendants' ill-gotten gains, including prejudgment interest and civil penalties.
In a related criminal action, Plant was arrested on March 13, 2006, in St. George, Utah, by agents of the Federal Bureau of Investigation's Philadelphia Economic Crimes Squad on charges of securities fraud and aiding and abetting securities fraud.
The Commission acknowledges the assistance and cooperation of the Federal Bureau of Investigation, the United States Attorney's Office for the Eastern District of Pennsylvania and the National Association of Securities Dealers in the investigation of this matter.

CRAMER REVEALS A BIT TOO MUCH
By RODDY BOYD
March 20, 2007 -- Flamboyant Wall Street trader turned TV host Jim Cramer, not known for being the shy, retiring type, might have said too much in a video interview he did for a financial Web site.
The host of CNBC's daily program "Mad Money" had hedge fund-trading desks buzzing yesterday after he bragged about manipulating stock prices during his days as a trader.
In the video from TheStreet.com's "Wall Street Confidential" Webcast, Cramer boasts about manipulating the price of a high-flying stock down, and even acknowledges that doing so might have been illegal. The video is making the rounds on YouTube.
"A lot of times when I was short, I would create a level of activity beforehand that would drive the futures. . . . It's a fun game," Cramer said in the Webcast, which was moderated by TheStreet.com Executive Editor Aaron Task.
Cramer later said that "no one else in the world would ever admit that, but I don't care."
However, seconds later, he acknowledged, "I'm not going to say that on TV," referring to his show on CNBC.
A remarkably successful money manager when he ran the $450 million Cramer Berkowitz hedge fund, Cramer in the Webcast shared his "tips" on how to drive a stock price down so that a short-position - a bet that a stock price would drop - remains profitable.
He added that the strategy - while illegal - was safe enough because, "the Securities and Exchange Commission never understands this."
A call to Cramer was not returned.

CKYS SEC Charges Cyberkey, CEO Over Phony Homeland Security Deal
Last Update: 3/20/2007 10:23:07 AM
By Siobhan Hughes
Of DOW JONES NEWSWIRES
WASHINGTON (Dow Jones)--The Securities and Exchange Commission on Tuesday charged
Cyberkey Solutions Inc. (CKYS) and its chief executive with selling stock to
investors by falsely claiming that the electronic-device maker had won a $25
million contract from the Department of Homeland Security.
The SEC filed fraud charges in federal court in Pennsylvania against James Plant,
the CEO, and the St. George, Utah, company. Regulators said that the scheme
started in November 2005 and continued through Monday, allowing Cyberkey to raise
at least $1.5 million. Attorneys for the defendants couldn't immediately be
reached.
"The perpetrators of this scheme carried out an extensive fraud and even went so
far as to make false claims about the Department of Homeland Security - an Agency
whose mission is critical to all Americans," said SEC enforcement director Linda
Thomsen in a statement. "Our response to this kind of conduct will always be
swift and firm."
Plant was arrested on March 13 in Utah by the FBI in a related criminal case, the
SEC said.

Japanese Dot-Com Mogul Blasts Conviction
Mar 18, 1:08 AM EDT
By HIROKO TABUCHI
Associated Press Writer
Prison Sentence Marks New Low for Horie
TOKYO (AP) -- Disgraced dot-com tycoon Takafumi Horie slammed his conviction and harsh sentence for securities fraud on Sunday, insisting he had committed no crimes and that he had more than paid for any mistakes by losing his company.
On Friday, Horie was found guilty of masterminding a network of decoy investment funds to illegally manipulate earnings at his Internet startup, and was sentenced to two-and-a-half years in prison in the biggest white-collar-crime trial Japan has witnessed in years.
"I did not intentionally attempt to pad earnings, and there was no false accounting," an intent-looking Horie, former president of Livedoor Co., told a TV Asahi talk show on Sunday. "I do not accept the court's verdict."
Horie is currently on bail while he appeals the court's verdict.
He rejected suggestions from show commentators that he apologize for causing turmoil in Japanese markets. The raid on Livedoor's offices and Horie's subsequent arrest in early 2006 sparked a frenzied market sell-off that forced the Tokyo Stock Exchange to curtail trading over capacity problems.
"I have stepped down as Livedoor president, I lost my position and my salary, and I was incarcerated. I believe I have lived up to my management responsibilities," he said. "To apologize ... would be inconsistent with my assertions."
Horie is both adored and despised in Japan for his brash personality and bold actions. He appeared often on TV, ran unsuccessfully for a seat in parliament and tried to take over a radio broadcaster to gain managerial influence over media group Fuji Television Network Inc.
He repeatedly asserted his innocence during his intensely watched trial that began in September - unusual in a nation where 99 percent of criminal trials end in guilty verdicts, and a show of remorse can help win lenience.
Prosecutors had demanded a four-year prison term for Horie, even though executives charged with white-collar wrongdoing generally get a suspended sentence and avoid prison in Japan.
His severe treatment by authorities has prompted some to question whether Horie had been punished as much for his open defiance of a corporate culture long dominated by big-name companies as for his wrongdoings.
