mnfats: I can appreciate some of their past concerns, however, after they have been proven wrong, so many times, one might think that they might correct what then did take place. CTT is a niche company; right out of Buffet, etal thinking.
My analysis is that MF catches up with themselves trying to sound like experts all the time. They have to put out something for their subscribers.
MissPiggy: squirrels are really too lean to waste BBQ on; this usually applies also for cats and dogs. The skunks are usually gobbled up by the plethora of owls, and I haven't brought myself around the utilize roadkill. Maybe some of the board members have some decent recipes for basic roadkill. I just hate trying to pick out the maggots.
However, before I digress, one should bake or roast squirrels in an oven. Brush some oil and seasoning and it should do the trick. BBQing is really a bovine or swine thing. I hope this helps.

Hello, is this the Sheriff's Office?"
"Yes. What can I do for you?"
"I'm calling to report 'bout my neighbor Virgil Smith....
He's hidin' marijuana inside his firewood! Don't quite know how he gets it inside them logs, but he's hidin' it there."
"Thank you very much for the call, sir."
The next day, the Sheriff's Deputies descend on Virgil's house. They search the shed where the firewood is kept.
Using axes, they bust open every piece of wood, but find no marijuana. They sneer at Virgil and leave.
Shortly, the phone rings at Virgil's house.
"Hey, Virgil! This here's Floyd....
did the Sheriff come?"
"Yeah!"
"Did they chop your firewood?"
"Yep!"
"Happy Birthday, buddy!"

skeballlarry: it's an expression from the front lines of 'Nam. If one had any doubts about the ten year old girl, in the perimeter wire, turning around Claymore mines, one simply did the right thing, contrary to what the lifers, in their secure bunkers, might advise.
cbfromli: great; the brain gets younger while the body gets older. So much for the saying that the mind is the second thing to go.
Nothing like SEC filings to get this puppy rolling again. Closer and closer we get, as real progress is made. Who knows: maybe Motley Fool will have something nice to say about the company. Oh, that's right, their track record has been pretty krappy for quite some time.
Ah, some political humor.

Vexari: a quintessential example of a quote that provokes serious thinking. Thank you.
up-down: market makers are like a stock bookie. They make their ultimate paydirt on volume. As a trader, I prefer using market makers over a specialist (AMEX, NYSE). On OTCBBs, they tend to run a true market. Also, they'll let limit orders, during slower times, go through with sells at ask and buys at bid. When one gets to buy at bid and sell at ask on the same issue, one develops a fondness for MMs.
Inside selling today? You got it. See how fast it can happen on an entity like this? Yeppers, the insiders are playing the fiddle (on a Friday no less). Is this quality DD?
bartermania: ah yes, good stuff by one of our favorites. However, let me add this one:
"If I were to say that the so-called philosophy of this fellow Hegel is a colossal piece of mystification which will yet provide posterity with an inexhaustible theme for laughter at our times, that it is a pseudo-philosophy paralyzing all mental powers, stifling all real thinking, and, by the most outrageous misuse of language, putting in its place the hollowest, most senseless, thoughtless, and, as is confirmed by its success, most stupefying verbiage, I should be quite right.
Further, if I were to say that this summus philosophus [...] scribbled nonsense quite unlike any mortal before him, so that whoever could read his most eulogized work, the so-called Phenomenology of the Mind, without feeling as if he were in a madhouse, would qualify as an inmate for Bedlam, I should be no less right."
—Arthur Schopenhauer, On the Basis of Morality (page 15-16)
janice shell: as a follow up of my previous post to you, here is some of what I had in mind:
http://www.law.uc.edu/CCL/34ActRls/rule10b-5.html
"Rule 10b-5 -- Employment of Manipulative and Deceptive Devices
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
It shall be unlawful for any person, directly or indirectly, by the use of any means or instrumentality of interstate commerce, or of the mails or of any facility of any national securities exchange,
a. To employ any device, scheme, or artifice to defraud,
b. To make any untrue statement of a material fact or to omit to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements made, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, or
c. To engage in any act, practice, or course of business which operates or would operate as a fraud or deceit upon any person, in connection with the purchase or sale of any security."
janice shell: just last month, The Virginia Court of Appeals upheld the felony conviction of Jeremy Jaynes. The case law that is preliminary connected with that case bolsters The CAM-SPAM Act. The issues arising out of this particular UBE (unsolicited bulk emails) case help define crimes via UBE that fall under RICO guidelines. False email claims about stock prices are actually an interference of one's right to engage in interstate commerce. While UBEs, of the nature that we are discussing, do not meet all RICO requirements, they are commerce violations.
bartermania: it's good to be reminded. It's been a while since I read him.
up-down: of course, we like swings. However, an entity, ripe to be shut down overnight, is not that safe, for even trading.
This stock tops all spamming records that I have ever seen. I don't appreciate the company-approved spams telling the rest of us what fools we are for not buying in. Do you have a problem with that? There are laws against spam. The spam claims certainly violate a number of SEC regulations. TA, therefore becomes moot. The spamming report is part of DD.
BTW, the only disrespect, is what you showed me, in your post. It skates on the edge of TOU violation.
NovoMira: grouse and partridge and pheasant are all wild birds and are alternative to lazy chickens. BTW, my dad taught me, early, that damn and yankee are two separate words.
up-down: one does not need death spirals to grind a stock into the ground. Death spirals are often a misdirection covering dilution, with a look to spread some favors around and/or collect them.
BTW, I'm a trader and I still wouldn't touch this.
jawmoke: SigFraud plagiarized The Crowd by Gustave Le Bon for what he wrote on mass persuasion. His writings on psychoanalysis have been largely disproved. However, this does not negate the salient points of your post.
Abraham Maslow's Hierarchy of Needs and Robert Cialdini's works will give one the more exacting understanding.
The dump phase came up a little short of the magical $15-20 target. Now, how did I know that?
The world series will actually be fun to watch this year. There's the Albert Pujols led Cardinals against the youthful Tigers. To see the several Tiger players celebrating their victories with the fans, in the seats, advanced the joy of the game after being marred by multiple strikes.
So much for the pundits' predictions of a subway series.
NovoMira: Chew Chew Charlies is a fictitious Australian restaurant chain fostered in my fertile imagination.
In the late 70s, my partner and I were attempting to start an alligator farm outside of Naples, Florida. The land values skyrocketed overnight and made mockery of cheap swamp land. Alligator tastes like a cross between perch and grouse and is very, very chewy.
NovoMira: yes, they're a favorite dish at Chew Chew Charlies.
NovoMira: the trouble is with your selection of pets. Try a pet croc (they're humanitarians).
Beginning in the fourth century, an unprecedented wave of immigration washed over the Roman Empire, leading to the end of the empire in the West. (Dennis Behreandt)

cbfromli: you mean women; otherwise the pedotarian label.
cbfromli: okay, a vegetarian eats only vegetables.
What does a humanitarian eat?
Vexari: to rid one's self of the shackles of security documents, such as birth certificates and social security numbers, one needs to file revocation of signature and assert and affirm that one's signature is his/her trademark. Most social security applications are not legally binding, as one's parents filed for that individual or one was not of legal age to engage in contracts.

Expanding Surveillance Authority
by William F. Jasper
October 30, 2006
The surveillance power demanded by President Bush would not necessarily provide any better protection from terrorism, but it would certainly expand executive branch power.
On December 17 of last year, during his weekly radio address, President Bush confirmed reports by the New York Times and CNN that, following the 9/11 attacks, he had given the National Security Agency (NSA) authorization to eavesdrop on Americans communicating with people overseas. The president said that ordering such electronic surveillance without judicial warrants is "fully consistent" with his "constitutional responsibilities and authorities," and charged that the media exposure of this secret program is illegal and "damages our national security and puts our citizens at risk."
The NSA, which eavesdrops on billions of communications worldwide, is barred from domestic spying without a warrant, as required in the Fourth Amendment of the Bill of Rights. The Justice Department can get warrants from a special court called the FISA (Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act) Court, a 10-judge panel established in 1978 expressly for that purpose. In emergencies, the NSA may even conduct domestic surveillance for 72 hours without a warrant. But by the end of that three-day period, it must obtain a warrant. Over the past nearly 30 years, the FISA Court has denied only a handful of the thousands of warrant requests. And there is no indication that the 72-hour emergency provision has been inadequate to deal with serious terrorist threats.
On August 17 of this year, U.S. District Judge Anna Diggs Taylor ruled that the president's warrantless searches are unconstitutional. The administration immediately appealed the decision and on October 4, a three-judge panel ruled that the NSA may continue its eavesdropping while awaiting a final ruling from the 6th Circuit Court of Appeals.
Interestingly, during the December 17, 2005 radio address, President Bush cited the case of 9/11 hijackers Khalid Al-Mihdhar and Nawaf Al-Hazmi as a prime example of the need for warrantless surveillance. This duo, he said, "communicated while they were in the United States to other members of al Qaeda who were overseas, but we didn't know they were here until it was too late." It would be difficult for the president to come up with a worse example to make his point.
The various official 9/11 investigations showed that the FBI, CIA, and NSA all were monitoring Hazmi and Mihdhar. In San Diego, the duo even lived with Abdussattar Shaikh, an acknowledged undercover asset of the FBI. The two also had regular contacts with San Diego area militant jihadists under FBI surveillance, such as Omar al-Bayoumi and Osama Mustafa. FBI Agent Stephen Butler made repeated efforts to have them arrested, but he was overruled from above.
Moreover, a review of the 9/11 hijackers' visa applications by a panel of former consular officials revealed that all 15 of the publicly available applications, including Mihdhar's, had been issued in violation of existing law, despite blatant red flags that should have disqualified all of them. Thus, there is no reason to believe that the kind of extraordinary power demanded by President Bush would have provided any more needed intelligence or that it would have been acted on any better than the abundant data that was already available.
The House and Senate GOP leadership cynically adopted the White House strategy of using the issue before the November elections to paint the Democrats as weak on national security if they didn't vote for legislation to gut our Fourth Amendment. However, although the House passed its version of the bill (H.R. 5825) on September 28 (see House vote #40 in the "Conservative Index," page 26), the Senate did not vote on its version (S. 3931) prior to adjournment. It is very likely that Congress will try to enact some kind of expansion of executive surveillance authority, in line with what the White House is demanding, during the lame-duck session.

JalapenoBuck: naw, the squirrels will monopolize it. Then again, it wasn't until I was in the military that I realized that those rodents weren't staple.
LITL has set all-time records for stock spam. This smells like a shipload of dead fish. I haven't even looked into their "business plan," if one even exists.
Seriously, one should look in a mirror and check one's integrity, if one is willfully pumping this stock. This is the worst POS that Mark Valentine is not involved with.
MrBankRoll: go to local barber shops (not hair salons, since they use chemicals) and get a bunch of hair. Place the hair in some old nylons and strategically hang them on the perimeter. Also plants, like Mahonia (especially bealei) are quite anti-deer.
HBSC has just been promoted to my major league watch list (meaning that I could trade in it at any moment). I'm not in this right now, but I'm watching intently.
jonesieatl: yeppers, I certainly like the Williams% for pennies, as well as a/d. To be willing to sit on the sidelines is a closely guarded secret. Shhhh!
jonesieatl: hmmm, your charting assessments are very close to mine and I believe that we utilize different indicators from each other. This is certainly a good trading stock, right now.
Scovillez: trying to hit tops and bottoms is one of the toughest of tasks. Following trends, including oversold and overbought, is significantly easier. Remember that the market is about perception; not real or actual value.
Okay, where's the 10Q and now the 10K?
