About
The Pussycat Dolls, Usher, 50 Cent, Destiny’s Child, Pink and Snoop Dogg are just a handful of the top-selling artists that Grammy Award-winner Steven “Steve B” Baughman has worked with.
A California native, Steve B. graduated from California State University, Chico in 1995 with a BA in Music, Recording Arts. He then made his way to the heart of the music industry, Los Angeles. Starting his career at the prestigious Larrabee Studios, Steve B., worked with a wide variety of artists, producers, writers and music executives over a five-year period. This opportunity, straight out of college, allowed him to learn the music business from the bottom up. Armed with this knowledge and experience, Steve B. went off on his own in 2000 as an independent recording engineer.
Working for Death Row Records, Interscope Records, Sony Records, Capitol Records and many others, he was able to form relationships with some of the biggest moguls in the music business, including but not limited to, Dr. Dre, Eminem, Michael Jackson, Jimmy Iovine, and 50 Cent. Since then, Steve B. has worked on innumerable platinum records like Eminem’s 2002 “Eminem Show”, which was nominated for multiple Grammy’s and won in the category of Best Rap Album. In 2004, Baughman opened his own personal recording studio, servicing multi-platinum artists and up-and-coming talent.
As a writer/producer/mixer/engineer, he has been able to provide these clients with a complete start to finish album experience. Due to this success, in 2007, Baughman was hired by multi-billionaire Dr. Henry Nicholas to help form a new record label. As a staff A&R/producer/mixer, he was responsible for handling existing talent and bringing new talent into the system. Steve B continues his musical entrepreneurial drive and now has a new production/management imprint that includes country artist, Megan Moreaux. In addition he continues to mix and produce the biggest names in the music business.

INHX buyout and now bio-mania ensuing. All of your hep C pharmas running in pre-market as well. ACHN, VVUS going as well, DVAX.....
Thanks so much for taking the time to look.
I don't see any indication of a bounce nor any indicators that are starting to curl up. It also closed at the low of the day. I would hold off on your entry for now and keep it on watch. There are many better plays out there.
$THQI. .74. Question
Big drop in price over last month due to sales drop and risks.
Curious if $.74 is a good entry point or if I should wait for the move back up to start. ( or down )
Five keys to staying on the long-term track

My holiday reading included two journal articles that challenge the notion that investing for the long term reduces risk.
The message: It’s all well and good to recommend that an investor take the long view and not worry about short-term market dips, but quite another for that investor to truly maintain the strategy over multiple decades. While it’s easy to be a long-term investor in good times, it’s quite a different matter in times of euphoria or panic. Most investors can’t resist the temptation to become short-term oriented at extreme points in the market cycle.

The researchers have plenty of evidence on their side. Academic studies consistently show that investors achieve poorer returns on average than the funds they invest in. This shortfall, which is called the behavioural gap, primarily results from too much trading and a tendency to buy what’s done well in the recent past.
Many other factors can also take investors off track and expand the gap. Sometimes a change in life circumstance – a new job, a divorce, a mid-life crisis – will lead to an untimely strategy shift. There’s always the promise of the cool new products that are focused on what’s popular at the time – technology, gold, China, food, covered calls and/or dividends. And then there’s the psychological imperative (most common in males) to just do something when markets are moving.
Clearly, it’s hard being a committed, consistent long-term investor, but it can be done. During my time on the buy side, I’ve met thousands of investors who have let the power of compounding work for them and done well as a result.
As we start a new year, it’s worth reviewing a few of the keys to staying on a long-term track. I’ve got five.
First, you need to recognize that investing is like no other product decision you make. It’s perverse. Your best moves will feel terrible when you’re making them. Your well-thought-out plan will appear to not be working for long stretches of time. And, like golf, there will always be someone telling you they’ve figured out a better way (usually someone who posts higher scores and lower returns than you).
Second, you should stop doing the obvious things that are causing the behavioural gap. Contribute less to the profitability of the financial services industry by trading less and avoiding high fees. And don’t screen potential investments based solely on how they’ve done in the last three years. Look forward, not back.
The third key: You need to work from a Strategic Asset Mix. This is a plan, a place you go when you’re confused, disappointed, frightened or over confident. Your SAM should be the basis from which all decisions are made. “How does this new product fit into my portfolio? Should I be buying or selling these lousy foreign stocks?” Your SAM won’t vary much from year to year and should never be changed drastically at extreme times. When markets are going wild, it’s time to lean on your plan, not change it.
Fourth, you need to eliminate the word “if” from your vocabulary and substitute “when.” You’re more likely to be surprised by ifs, as opposed to being prepared for whens. For example, when the stock market goes down 20 per cent, you’ll gradually add to your equity funds. When your foreign stocks smoke the rest of your portfolio, you’ll re-balance back to Canada. And when it seems you’re going against what everyone else is doing, you’ll smile and pour yourself a nice glass of wine.
Finally, to be a successful long-term investor you need someone to lean on. You need a veteran who has a better investing temperament than you and has experienced the end of the world a few times. We all need a touchstone (for years I’ve leaned on Bob Hager, Warren Buffett and Jeremy Grantham), although you shouldn’t expect them to be right all the time. Rather, you’re looking to benefit from their calmness, thought process and most importantly, their longer-term perspective.
It’s easy building a long-term portfolio. It’s tougher sticking to it. But it’s not rocket science. If you’re committed and consistent, the markets will present you with some wonderful opportunities and the process will be very rewarding.

Comstock Homebuilding Companies, Inc. Reports Results for Three Months and Nine Months Ended September 30, 2011
RESTON, Va., Nov. 14, 2011 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Comstock Homebuilding Companies, Inc. (Nasdaq:CHCI) ("Comstock" or the "Company"), a multi-faceted real estate development and services company focused on the Washington, D.C. market, announced net income for its third quarter ended September 30, 2011 of $6.7 million or $0.33 per diluted share. Net income and diluted net income per share for the third quarter of 2011 compares to net loss of $(3.4) million or $(0.18) earnings per diluted share for the comparable 2010 quarter. Total revenue for the third quarter of 2011 was $5.4 million compared to $5.6 million for the comparable 2010 quarter. Net income and diluted net income per share for the nine months ended September 30, 2011 was $4.2 million or $0.19 earnings per diluted share which compares to a net loss of $(6.2) million and $(0.34) earnings per diluted share for the same period a year ago. Net income for the three months and nine months ended September 30, 2011 includes a net gain of $9.4 million (or $0.47 earnings per diluted share for both the three and nine month period ended September 30, 2011) from the previously announced settlement of long running litigation concerning the Eclipse condominium project. Total revenue for the nine months ended September 30, 2011 was $15.9 million, which compares to $21.2 million for the comparable 2010 period.
Notable Events
Improved financial position - As a result of the recently announced strategic alliance with SunBridge Capital Management, LLC and the settlement of the Eclipse lawsuit, the Company ended the September 30, 2011 quarter with $6.5 million of unrestricted cash on hand and total equity of approximately $15 million. This compares to $0.5 million of unrestricted cash on hand and total equity of approximately $7 million for the year ended December 31, 2010.
Cascades Apartment Project - On October 31, 2011, Comstock Cascades II L.C., an entity in which the Company has a controlling interest, entered into a definitive agreement to sell its Potomac Square Apartment project ("Property") for approximately $19.75 million. Comstock developed the 103-unit Class A apartment project within the Cascades master planned community located in Loudoun County, Virginia. Construction began during the first quarter of 2011 and was completed in the third quarter, with initial occupancies beginning in July. Cardinal Bank of Tysons Corner, Virginia provided a $10.5 million construction loan for the project. The transaction is expected to close during the fourth quarter of 2011, subject to a customary due diligence period, during which the purchaser is entitled to cancel the transaction. The Company anticipates approximately $6 million of cash proceeds will be available from the sale after repayment of debt and project specific equity financing.
Ongoing monetization of real estate assets - Comstock continues to monetize inventory units from its Eclipse and Penderbrook projects. Total units delivered in the third quarter of 2011 were 10. An additional 4 units were delivered during the month of October. There are 31 units remaining for sale at the Eclipse and 47 units remaining for sale at Penderbrook.
