This appears to be a part of a radio astronomy project called SETI.
It essentially listens for radio emissions from deep space, in the hope that regular or rythmic pulses may be detected the theory is that these could come from intelligent life.
You can help them crunch the data by linking your own PC into the project during 'downtime'.
Thats was great !
Thanks
I tested very well...... LOL
Sorry Ken,
Couldn't resist this from of all places the 'test' board !
How To Clean Your Toilet:
1. Put both lids of the toilet up and add 1/8 cup of pet shampoo to the water in the bowl.
2. Pick up the cat and soothe him while you carry him towards the bathroom.
3. In one smooth movement, put the cat in the toilet and close both lids. You may need to stand on the lid.
4. The cat will self agitate! and make ample suds. Never mind the noises that come from the toilet, the cat is actually enjoying this.
5. Flush the toilet three or four times. This provides a "power-wash" and rinse".
6. Have someone open the front door of your home. Be sure that there are no people between the bathroom and the front door.
7. Stand behind the toilet as far as you can, and quickly lift both lids.
8. The cat will rocket out of the toilet, streak through the bathroom, and run outside where he will dry himself off.
9. Both the commode and the cat will be sparkling clean.
Sincerely,
The Dog

Chart,
Hope Low is right, the ADX should be a touch and go, otherwise we may drift lower.
Really putting this up because at last I am able too !LOL
GLTA
Ken,
Didnt realize you had such a struggle.
Reminds me so much of others in history .
We wont go there..........
All I can say is that I am still running your '15' and Jan picks - and they aint ugly ! LOL
Appreciate your knowledge and candour
GLTY
Now that is interesting Jim,
I also see Per Lindstrands name in connection with this.
The 'ship looks very much like the Strat.
So first we see the 'sky dragon' from Stutgart U (?) being demonstrated over here and now a tie up with Germany's HAPS/Strat.
Humm
Please stick around and please keep an eye on our EU/DM connection.
Thanks and GLTY
That looks like it might be an interesting link, when it gets published and something we might find useful in the Ibox maybe ?
Are you in DM by the way ?
I recall a poster, maybe yesterday, probably Russian (because he could read Russian) stating that he had a reputation of turning whatever he touched into success.
Also a Deputy Minister so will be wary of his public image and reputation you would think.
Am I going mad here ?
So lockheed gets nigh on 1 bn for a failed project that was to adapt a Canadadian or Brazilian commercial plane to eavesdrop on China AND be a battlefield comms center.
In the search for Bin Ladin it was known that the Brits Nimrod listening aircraft were the only ones capable of 'hoovering up' comms over a 200 + mile radius. (actual is a bit shhhhs.)
Now why not take what the Brits have and do improve.
Incidentally it took years of budget overruns and failures to get that thing right. Why not benefit from others mistakes.
(Beleive it not it is a decendant of the British Comet from the 50's!)
? can a Canadair spend 24 hrs in the air @ + 40,000 ft anyway ?
(apparently not hence the weight problem point I suspect)
So much for jobs for Americans !
Meanwhile how the fools spend your kids education and pensions .
Apologies but .... if we dont do something about this madness we are lost I fear.
Got Strat ?
All my humble op.
Yes indeed,
Thanks Low, will spend a little more time assimilating SAR vs DMI.
Traditional telecoms sector is down worldwide,
IMO they are either going to have to go VOIP and WIFI or slowly be overtaken by such as Globtel.
Think they are adapting to late. The ones that will survive are those whose Governments have some control or interest.
Thereagain those will be the ones to be slower to adapt than 'privatized' ones.
Just think. do you really need a home phone right now?
You have internet by cable for now and a cell phone, Balckberry or Ipod and VOIP already.
Its Baby Bell time all over again ......
JMO
How about the gapping budget deficit 'stole it' !LOL
For the life of me I can understand why anyone would want another manned 'spy plane'.
And can't an existing 'stealth plane do just the same thing ?
You have Sats, UMV's such as the Predator and how about a Strattelite.
$4.6 bn to design a plane of which only a few will be used is pretty obscene dont you think ?
Yep the Strat could well benefit ......once proven
JMO
Tried Stockfetcher ?
The ability to refine an analysis is there ?
Nice search ?
But doesnt an ADX X preclude your search criteria ?
Anyway have a look @
www.stockfetcher.com

I understand they already are considering moving offshore,
(See contract)
Its called Luxembourg. (Neither the Isle of Wight,Ireland or Switzerland are BTW)
There really isnt any point in repatriating foreign earnings back to the US.
Now if the US Military doesn't want the Strat then who do you think might ?
Thanks again Midi,
Very valid questions.
I guess we wait and see.
The fundementals still remain
EXCITING !
to say the least.
Just being a part of what could/may be is perhaps enough !
Nothing ventured - nothing gained ..
GLTY and all
Mide,
Thanks first of all for all the DD you do for us BTW.
So am I right to think that we have some hedge fund with the ability to renting or lending out 15 M shares ?
(Arguably doubling that amount of control by naked shorting too)
Is there anything to stop them taking over the company or indeed becoming the controlling interest ?
Bit disconcerting, but it might well be the answer to the question we have been pondering and explain the sometimes seemingly illogical movement of the pps.
Trans
Golly gosh,
Do we actually have a market and trading here ??
Didn't expect them to be that far forward with the 'pilot' programmes for another 7 countries.
Wow indeed.
And with the credibility of the Russian order under GTE to boot !!
Missed it Wize,
Did he trash GTE again ?
My apologies,
Didn't mean to offend.
Just open to opinion..........
Actually trying to encourage you to elicidate a little more.......
GLTY
I think you will find if you look at the submissions to both boards over the w/e that the subject of the Fool article was very well covered at length and some solutions found........
Many have expressed their opinions to the writer and the editors.
GLTY
Watching your challenge with great interest Wize ,
We are also waiting for him (maybe this evening) to trash GTE once more !
GLTY
Thank you,
A more logical and plausable assessment than mine.
But it seems a shame that the news and confirmation didn't give us a better day.
Lets call it consolidation for the month.
I'm still looking for deep pockets !!LOL
Thanks for the clarification on the warrants Midi,
More detailed post on other board.
A question ?
It would seem that the 'sell off' today was not any warrant conversion shareholders then what is your opinion about the sell off.
I do not think 'Fool' retailers could have influenced the heavy dip today given that they cant or dont read the Co's PR's.
Is someone manipulating and accumulating I wonder.
We have speculated on someone not wanting to see Strats fly before.
With the company now on a very sound financial footing is someone perhaps looking for control instead of breaking them ?
Your and anyones opinions appreciated.
Not sure I agree with that.
There will have been 'letters of intent' and quite a bit of expense in months of negotiations.
What does suprise me is that advance payments are not being made on either letters of credit or bank guarantees.
Or are they ?
Hi Nils,
Could you elaborate a little on that pls
'Prone to follow XYN in the 160 channel'
ADX isnt too hot either.
Seems all good to most here having picked it over most of the w/e.
If anything it was too good..
But todays PR put things to rest.
The company is now debt free and can add $6.8M to its 1st Q 2006 results not forgettting the 150M due as an advance payment this month too.
Market isnt making much sense at the moment.
GLTY
Two schools of thought on that one (gap filling) and it was aired or rather argued here recently.
I am out on that one and there are 'runaway gaps'
I bet if you look at Google or MSFT you will find one or two not filled nor likely too LOL.
Some (including me) have thought there was another 'agenda' with GTE. With these PR's its going to be hard to hold back now so why not join GTE or just take them over.
I never said that and it is pure speculation BTW.........
Trouble is most of us (retail) are loaded with GTE and haven't funds to keep the shorters at bay.
The Institutions need to buy in.
Something about Jan 15th .........
I too am a bit dumbfounded by the markets reaction to not one but 2 great PR's.
The company is now debt free and will see it going into profit in 2006.
We have fallen through a couple of indicators and as happened last month (the drop to near 2.00) I have a feeling the TA is being painted
There maybe an explanation for the unexplainable.
But it would be pure supposition.
If you cant beat em ...........
Its been done before and GTE is dead cheap at this point IMO
d-k
You may want to have a look at the 2 PR's GTE put out today.
But your comment on the dma and ADX together with the badly times and reported Motley Foll article may account for the strange way the pps is reacting this morning.
I am studying Kens landslide too !
GLTY
Brilliant Mr. Huff
Thank you for the confirmation, elucidation and clarification.
Here we go ............
Thanks for that Cowboy,
I am a regular lurker at Wizetraders board and he is doing much to deprogramme me and consider a simpler way of evaluating trades. (As did Midi here )
Board mark to you !
'Equity Rodeo ' ?? !!
Excellent ,if not depressing, read.
I have been watching the scenario unfold since 2001.
The loss of the petrodollar is rather like the loss of a Federal Reserve.
The damage that Bush and Blair have done to UK and US foreign relationships has brought the rise of the Euro and fall of the dollar closer than ever to a reality.
A new line in the sand has been drawn. A US presence will be necessary in the Middle East for years to come if only to substitute for Iraqs role as a shield against Iranian fundementalism overrunning both Iraq and overturning and displacing the Oil Kings, Princes and Sheiks.
It is ironic that what Bin Laden failed to do in Saudi Arabia the US and UK have perhaps helped to facilitate.
I know where I am going in 2006. I should have done so in 2003 !
Euro/Dollar
Apologies for the politics. I am afraid it is more the effect of them which is succeeding in changing our lives to an extent we have not yet felt.
GLTY
I think yours should be the 'Post of the Week, Mide LOL
I read and reread looking for the pitfalls.
Frankly the deal looked too good to be true.
There seems little downside. Even the 'out' for GTE pays all expenses (GTE's calcs) a big 4 accountant for straight books and transparency.
Its all up.
Now I can understand the sceptism.
Companies dont usually pull off deals like this.with such favorable conditions.
I can understand it not quite sinking in with the market yet.
Yes your right,
But it has had the unsettling effect that was its object and still leaves doubt in peoples minds.
And shorts /naked shorts will play again with us.
It didnt need to have happened and it shouldn't have.
