part of the article...
Analysis published by the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) indicates that every 50 million gallons of biodiesel raises soybean prices one percent. At the current level of 300 million gallons, biodiesel demand is already adding about 30 cents per bushel
Doesnt seem like that much on a per bushel basis!
has the diversified ethanol website, been updated??
Maybe i missed this, but it sure looks good to me.
Also, I noticed the new Proforma for "running"one of these plants...

Did I miss this before ...or did USSEC update their website....
Interesting...the triple threat

U.S. Sustainable Energy Corporation is based in Natchez, Mississippi. We expect to begin generating 40 megawatts of power for the city of Vidalia, Louisiana, by the second quarter of 2007. Our research and development facility in Port Gibson, Mississippi, is a fully functioning manufacturing plant
OOOPPPSSS looks like nitrogen cost are rising.....

Me thinks those figures are off.... as per a simple search....
http://www.soil.ncsu.edu/publications/Soilfacts/AG-439-04/#ValueofManure
To compare the value of manure to commercial fertilizer, convert the manure nutrients to available nutrients by using their availability coefficients. In the example that follows, the amount of available nitrogen (N), phosphorus (P2O5), and potassium (K2O) in each inch of lagoon liquid is approximately 68, 37, and 93 pounds per acre, respectively. At $0.225 per pound of nitrogen, $0.22 per pound of phosphate, and $0.12 per pound of potash, the manure's gross worth is
(68 x $0.225) + (37 x $0.22) + (93 x $0.12)
or
$15.30 + $8.14 + $11.16 = $34.60 per acre for each inch of lagoon liquid.
This value does not include labor or irrigation equipment costs, nor does it include the value of any secondary or micronutrients available in the manure. In addition, it assumes that the soil test has indicated a need for each nutrient, when, in fact, many nutrients may not be needed. Nutrients not needed should not be considered in assessing the financial value of the manure

Here a link to a new product that you can create a new board and bash them!!
Wait...i forgot......New inventions dont happen everyday.
A couple of questions to help you along....
Hmmmmm..
1: I wonder how much flour cost for this invention...
2: I wonder the BTU's it going to take to make that invention rise...hmmmm

L2's Showing LARGE blocks...ET
Sounds like a new commodity market to be set up...
Starting bid for rotten soy....do i hear .50 ...do i hear .75
.75 once
.75 twice
.75 SOLD to the man who couldnt even GIVE THEM AWAY!!!!
The process can even use rotten beans...or wet....
what kind of $ do those cost per bushel?
And dont you think...they aren't buying futures contracts...on soy
Can you say HEDGE!!!
Bet they said "cant possibly work "...to this guy too!!!

Per the RAND report...
Shell has a largely environmentally benign extraction process developed, but it has yet to undergo large scale testing. They think that it will produce oil competitive with $20/barrel pricing. Because of technical, legal, and environmental issues, we're probably a decade away from scale extraction. Within 20 years, Rand thinks we can produce 1 million barrels/day. Within 30 years, we can produce 3 million barrels/day
Makes USSE a no brainer.....plus its "on top " of the soil...doesnt have to extracted .....
PP...we are not exercising a cat..here
but you sure seem "like" one!!!!
LOL..sooo sorry , but you left yourself wide open for that one!!!
And that is the beauty of THIS JUICE!!!!
I think there are farther reaching implications and applications than are "on the surface"!!!
PS..I can't wait till this stock "crushs" DOMS , just like SOY!!!
Split, Have to agree 100% with # 2... ET
That would be fine ( just electric )...but i dont know...(thinking out loud)...I'm sure down the road, more applications will be found ..for JR juice!!!
Maximus,
I don’t know if this has been discussed (or alluded too) but I have been “ thinking”..
My thoughts of your P&W ties are probably far reaching! Why just stop with electric generation… Couldn’t this juice run Airplane Turbines (more efficiently)?? That’s my take on P&W’s “involvement”, I envision JR Juice at most major airports and military bases.
As per P&W website...

If link doesnt work... its www.pratt and whitney "about" page
Our military engines power the Air Force's front line fighters today – the F-15 and F-16 – and our F119 and F135 engines will power the front line fighters of the future – the F/A-22 Raptor and F-35 Joint Strike Fighter. Our rocket engines send payloads into orbit at 20,000 miles per hour.
Our gas turbines are also used to generate electricity in a growing number of locations. And Pratt & Whitney Canada is the world's leading producer of engines for corporate jets, commuter aircraft and helicopters
Well Said Robert!! ET
I also second that point with the fact that ...if the technology didnt "work"...why would you open yourself up to that kind of scrutiny
While it may not seem newsworthy...
I find this statement very interesting....
In response to the President's State of the Union address, green energy provider and biofuel research firm U.S. Sustainable Energy Corp. (PINKSHEETS: USSE) announced today their solution to decrease U.S. dependence on foreign oil. The company's recommendations and findings are being published for official presentation to an exclusive network of key influencers, elected officials, and business leaders nationwide
Wasnt part of Maximus' "job description" to write "White Papers" on these technologies......
Maybe more to this PR than most see....
Yahoo search of Domestic Securities....
Am I reading this wrong???
http://www.sec.gov/divisions/marketreg/mr-noaction/ecn102105.htm
Thats good!!! Funny though, How does DOMS cover all those shorted shares (when he caps the upside) ...they are rearly on the BID....my guess is NITE ( who ownes them , i believe) does this for them!!!
Thank you David....thought I read that somewhere...ET
So true about DOMS!! ET
Pound , I could swear that they didnt announce a definite swap figure...i thought that it was said the swap could be 1.3 PLUS
Details may still being worked out...but is it not worth the wait , if the figure is HIGHER?
PS...Its going to be funny when DOMS and NITE (shorters) have to pony up the extra money .
Along those lines of the show last nite,
they made a few points that maybe Maximus might be able to answer...
Ethanol production takes 1 unit of energy to return 1.3 ...true?
If so , even they commented that obviously this was "better" than only the 1 unit...but it seem to me that if this company can "increase" this unit by 30-35%, we will have a new net yeild of 1.7 units....a vast improvement
Am i off in calculating this?
Also , they made mention of "other" renewables that yeild a production value of 1 unit energy expended to 8 yeild....
can anyone guess what that 1 was???!!!
They also stated that demand for electricity (60%) goes to running our A/C's in homes and is a bigger demand than the whole Automobile Market!! INTERESTING
A ho-down!!!...stop talkin about my sister lol
Anybody catch the History channel program last nite about renewable energies?
Good program for a basic understanding of ALL types of green solutions (even ours)...It is availible on DVD...think i may order it ( to keep on file)
Did anyone see the L2..spike to .44??
I also noticed that ONYI is at .44??
Done Deal??
Article on Yahoo.. I highlighted the interesting point
They need to find out about this little company to "solve" there problems!!!

Bush Proposals May Aid Ethanol Producers
Wednesday January 24, 12:46 pm ET
By Dan Caterinicchia, AP Business Writer
Ethanol Producers, Health Care Service Providers Stand to Gain From President Bush's Proposals
WASHINGTON (AP) -- Ethanol producers and health care service providers are among the potential corporate beneficiaries of policies proposed by President Bush, while domestic automakers and oil companies could get slightly stung.
ADVERTISEMENT
Ethanol companies' stocks fell Wednesday afternoon, however, signaling investors' skepticism about whether the proposals laid out in the State of the Union speech are achievable politically, and even technologically. Economists said they expect few drastic changes in the Democrat-controlled Congress between now and the 2008 election.
"The business community is quite skeptical that much, if anything, will be produced out of the Congress in the run-up to the 2008 presidential election year," said Allen Sinai, chief global economist at Decision Economics Inc.
The president's domestic moves toward bipartisanship are "marginally positive for stocks, but the proof is in the pudding and there's a long way to go," Sinai said.
Bush's proposals on energy and health care, including a call for a tax deduction of $7,500 for individuals and $15,000 for families regardless of whether they buy their own health insurance or receive medical coverage at work, were not overly ambitious, Sinai said.
But Archer-Daniels-Midland Co., along with US BioEnergy Corp., VeraSun Energy Corp. and other ethanol producers nevertheless stand to benefit from Bush's call to raise consumption targets for ethanol and other alternative fuels to 35 billion gallons by 2017. More than 5 billion gallons were produced in the U.S. in 2006.The long-term technological challenge, experts say, will be finding inexpensive ways to use feedstocks other than corn to meet the higher targets.
Some ethanol stocks slipped Wednesday afternoon. Archer-Daniels-Midland dipped 92 cents, or 2.8 percent, to $31.71, and Verasun lost 65 cents, or 3.6 percent, to $17.31, both on the New York Stock Exchange. US BioEnergy lost $1.37, or 10 percent, to $12.33, and Pacific Ethanol slid $1.24, or 7 percent, to $16.61, both on the Nasdaq Stock Market.
"What we're seeing today is the normal motion of the markets," Sinai said.
Automakers said they were open to the president's goals of increasing fuel economy standards.
The proposal could benefit Japanese automakers such as Toyota Motor Corp. and Honda Motor Co., which have higher fleetwide fuel economy levels than domestic manufacturers. The proposal also includes a system of trading or "banking" credits to meet new standards, which could lead to Detroit's automakers buying fuel credits from Toyota and Honda, both of which were trading up more than 2 percent Wednesday afternoon.
But General Motors Corp. and Ford Motor Co. have pledged to build two million flexible-fuel vehicles by 2010, so they too could benefit by an influx of ethanol and other renewable fuels. GM said it wanted to ensure, however, "that any fuel economy increases are technically achievable."
Energy analysts said the call for a sharp escalation in the use of ethanol will have little immediate impact on major oil companies such as Exxon Mobil Corp. and Chevron Corp., primarily because it'll be used as a partial substitute and not a replacement for gasoline.
The health care taxation plan is the most appealing to the private sector, analysts said. Specifically, the second part of the provision that would curb health care spending by taxing any benefits over the $7,500 and $15,000 marks, and could drive many Americans to the individual-oriented plans offered by UnitedHealth Group Inc., Wellpoint Inc. and Aetna Inc.
Business leaders welcomed Bush's tax proposal because anything that can help lower the number of the uninsured benefits the private sector, said John J. Castellani, president of the Business Roundtable, which represents the CEOs of 160 corporations.
Companies shoulder some of the expense of the uninsured, because part of the rates they pay to hospitals and other health care providers goes to the cost of uncompensated care.
"The fear shouldn't be that Bush's plan will push business out of providing health care," Castellani said Wednesday. "Cost is the greatest threat to pushing businesses out of providing health care."
That's good news for GM, the nation's largest private provider of health care, and other big businesses. And the potential health care benefits should outweigh the hit domestic automakers would take if Bush is successful in raising fuel economy standards for passenger cars, economists said.
The president devoted roughly 20 minutes of his speech to the global war on terror, with seven of those minutes spent on Iraq.
The defense industry outlook is dictated primarily by policies in Iraq and Bush's recent call to increase U.S. troops there by 21,500 elicited fierce opposition on Capitol Hill, said David Resler, managing director and chief economist at Nomura Securities International in New York.
But since Bush's troop announcement on Jan. 10, the stock prices of defense contractors like Hartford, Conn.-based United Technologies, Los Angeles-based Northrop Grumman Corp. and Bethesda, Md.-based Lockheed Martin Corp., are up and the Pentagon's fiscal year 2008 budget request could reach more than $600 billion.

VERY Interesting Video.....CNBC
http://www.cnbc.com/id/15840232?video=169624755
Along these lines ( of Media exposure)...Did anyone catch Fast Money on CNBC last nite??
Adami an Bolling made mention to fact that ethanol was going to be OK ...but the BIG , NEW PLAY was going to be in SOY!!!!!
I nearly fell over ...did anyone "get " to these guys and inform them of this Co??
If not, Maximus...Time to check into it!!!
Dont think so..unfortunatly
This was PR'd on the 14th Dec

I hate being right...ET
I predict that DOMS and NITE...step on this and try to keep it under .46
PP…and Rebellad
You both state that you wish you could short this stock…here’s your chance
No BS …a Bonafide offer for the two of you
Muster up all of your capital and decide how many shares you can afford to short. All shorting rules apply.
I will match that figure of shares with cash and put it in an account that holds the whole value (currently .45 a share) and let you short this stock with me for a time frame of 90 days. If you come out on top, the cash is yours…If not…I’ll be happy to take that money and pay for our party (all longs) on the banks of the Mississippi.
Personally, I would rather be on the upside of an infinite position, vs. the small downside risk (.45) that you could “earn”. (you do understand risk, reward ratio’s…right??)
If you can’t muster up any money, then both of you need to be on your way.
Specifically…..PUT UP OR SHUT UP!
No...what they do say is.....
100% Renewable Energy Source
U.S. Sustainable Energy’s founder John Rivera discovered a method (hereinafter referred to as the Rivera Process) for making a unique new biofuel that has all of the benefits of leading fuel sources without any of the traditional problems normally associated with biodiesel. In fact, the U.S. Sustainable Energy Biofuel has several properties that are superior to petroleum diesel as well as traditional biodiesel.
<When a company invests in a piece of capital, they *usually* know exactly what it is to be used for. USSE is not going to fill up a tank and transport the biofuel to the destination of "Power Generation.">
first off, "companies" dont invest in a piece of "capital"...they usually invest "capital"($'s) in the company's product or the creation of a product, as in this case.
Second, USSE is not going to..etc......You now "speak" for USSE??? Wow...you must hold some large position of shares to make statements on USSE's behalf..
<Also, why are you unable to tell shareholders the exact purpose for the fuel from the Freeus reactor?>
PP..I have been told numerous times that the fuel is for power generation.....
Are "we" (loosely) not understanding that???
I dont think you speak for the majority here..so..Please stop posting your redundant questions.
Along this same line with Naked Shorting...
When the ONYI deal is done, does that mean that the shorters also "owe out" the extra .3 shares of the stock?
If so, and the figure actually comes in higher, say 1.8, why would they want to risk this?
Also...current L2's .40 x .405
Thanks Z..thought it was an good handle too...LOL.. ET
