end2war: many "bashers" spend their time responding to the plethora of personal attacks.
Phil: some in the same day. They make Jackie Gleason look like a piker.
NYBob: we're glad you came here. You can see we like to study, study, study. We look forward to all the useful contributions that I'm sure that you'll bring.
How about paid members selling some of their posts? It would work like time share. Who said entrepreneurism is not still alive in America?
Vexari: "Oh, that mine enemy would write a book!"
bartermania: it all sort of reminds me of the CIA operation to build a multi-lane superhighway into the Golden Triangle. What used to takes months by mulepack, now could occur exponentially, in a day, via a truck. Oh yeah, the director, at the time, was the elder Bush. Say, wasn't he on record, against the druglords? Hmmmmmmmm
Vexari: add to that: citizen, resident, taxpayer, ...

spintex: here's an IHub board run by some folks with their heads screwed on okay. They'll do some good birddogging for you. http://www.investorshub.com/boards/board.asp?board_id=3251
spintex: most subpennies end up being on the grey and pinks. If one lacks the 25K to more easily trade, the cost of trading them cuts into potential profits, as one must be ready to cut losses quickly. I recommend building your pot on issues between 1.00 and 4.99.
Let me give you an example. OTD is on my short watch list. It just filled the last unfilled gap today. I'm ready to pull the trigger any moment. It could still go lower, but this is what I have been waiting for in this stock. The trade could turn against me. In that case, I have to, unemotionally, take my quick loss. Most brokerage accounts will charge a little extra commission for it being under a buck. No real biggie, but you will want to start with good money management habits. I say this, because it is at .95 right now. I see little downside, from here, given my DD on the entity. There's both a decent short-term upside and a reasonably strong intermediate and long-term forecast. I'm only trading, but I still try to eliminate most of the risks.
Look at this link: http://stockcharts.com/education/IndicatorAnalysis/indic_AccumDistLine.html Accumulation/distribution and Williams% and Bollinger Bands are my key guides for charting pennies. Also remember that if the share structure has recently changed, you have to start from the change. Many sites like Bigcharts (http://bigcharts.marketwatch.com), let you have some pretty useful charts that you can customize to your own desires, for free.
todd h: not to worry, I'm extremely careful with mankind's documents. Fascism is usually misdefined these days and works against the focussed cause. It becomes ironic that many lemmingesque, self-stamped political wannabes that accuse something of being fascist are usually right, but for the wrong reasons AND are part of the problem and not the solution.
This part of the reference is exact: "During the 19th century, the bundle of rods, in Latin called fasces and in Italian fascio, came to symbolize strength through unity, the point being that whilst each independent rod was fragile, as a bundle they were strong."
Make the politicians afraid to be in bed with a particular segment of the military-industrial complex and demonize the alphabet media and their lackeys and the bundle begins to weaken and look for cover.
spinex: you are quite welcome. If you do not have a lot of money to play with, then focus on one entity at a time. This is not to negate a good watch list. If you are not familiar with screeners, here's a pretty decent tool: http://www2.barchart.com/sigtop.asp
Vexari: what happened to the blackcats domain?
A question was asked about how and why prices fall and rise in its relationship to volume. Interestingly, it is not pure market, as in both directions, volume does not directly effect price. Volume causes liquidity and tighter spreads, which in turn, induces better volume. A good example of this would be in an entity which I hold, CTT, an AMEX issue and dictated by a specialist. http://www.amex.com/?href=/atamex/aboutAmex/mktStructure/at_mktStructure.html
Even though the specialist has all trades in front of him, orders come in from different markets and some are merely bluffs. Thus any activity in mainly one direction will cause the price to go that way rather sharply. This is less pronounced with MMs (such as on the OTCBB). Share structure is another factor. A low floater, like CTT moves on almost any trade. Entities, with several billion shares, need a lot to move it.
From one of my sister's!!!!
I bet this could be someone in your office!
Sick Leave
I urgently needed a few days off work, but I knew the Boss would not allow me to take a leave. I thought that maybe if I acted "CRAZY" then he would tell me to take a few days off. So I hung upside down from the ceiling and made funny noises. My coworker (who's blonde) asked me what I was doing? I told her that I was pretending to be a light bulb so that the Boss would think I was "CRAZY" and give me a few days off. A few minutes later the Boss came into the office and asked "What are you doing ?" I told him I was a light bulb.
He said "You are clearly stressed out. Go home and recuperate for a couple of days" I jumped down and walked out of the office. When my coworker (the blonde) followed me, the Boss said to her, "And where do you think you're going?"
(You're gonna love this..... )
She said, "I'm going home too, I can't work in the dark!"
What is really fascism? http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fascio
bartermania: I saw this years ago; having rented it from a public library. James Earl Jones hosted it. They provided clear and irrefutable documentation that Lee Harvey Oswald and Jack Ruby worked together and for the FBI and/or CIA. The Fair Play for Cuba leaflets were distributed via their operation. It was a front. The FBI field supervisor was Guy Bannister. He conveniently died before he was scheduled to testify before Congress on the JFK murder.
"Let us face reality. The framers have simply been too shrewd for us. They have outwitted us. They designed separated institutions that cannot be unified by mechanical linkages, frail bridges, tinkering. If we are to 'turn the founders upside down' — to put together what they put asunder — we must directly confront the Constitutional structure they erected ... "

MrBankRoll: the best tasting tomatoes are "heirlooms" such as the Brandywine varieties. However, the fruit often grows erractically. Big tomatoes seldom ripen evenly. The best opportunity for ripe tomatoes is to clear out the middle, as full sun is the most important factor. Also roll some cattle fence and your four footers will comfortably become eighters.
However, if what you what is solely big tomatoes, then you have to reduce the amount of branches and even pinch off some of the blossoms. You can pluck off the internode branches (commonly called suckers) or you can pinch back the main stems and let these grow outward.
Tomatoes like water, but not wet feet (soggy roots). In the future, soften the soil with some sand before planting. A wide variety of garden pests favor tomatoes. I long ago eliminated slugs, by providing excellent nesting areas for toads. For one rather large garden, a number of years ago, I paid a couple of young boys to apprehend some toads down by the marsh and bring them to me. With cages and thus keeping the fruit off of the ground the problem of mice and voles become almost nill.
Yet the main purpose of large ripe tomatoes is to make tomato sandwiches and to eat them with a huge grin. We demand photos.

Help Preserve Jobs and National Security & Independence:
Defeat the U.S.-Oman Free Trade Agreement
What's it all mean?
We have a golden opportunity to derail the NAFTA/CAFTA series of "free trade" agreements that are producing massive job losses for Americans and eroding national security and independence.
The U.S.-Oman FTA (Free Trade Agreement) was approved by the Senate yesterday with a vote of 60-34. The vote on this agreement is expected to be much closer in the House.
In light of the winning margin of just two votes on last year's CAFTA bill, and election-year jitters over controversial votes, the U.S.-Oman deal could be defeated in the House.
NOTE: A vote by the full House is expected in July, so you have to contact your representative now! (Please!)
You'll even have a chance to contact your rep directly during his "Independence Day District Work Period," July 3-7. Keep on the lookout!
Reasons for Opposing the U.S.-Oman FTA:
The U.S.-Oman FTA threatens American jobs. For example, AMTAC (American Manufacturing Trade Action Coalition) states that the agreement includes a ridiculously large tariff preference level (TPL) of 50 million square meters of textiles annually for 10 years, which will mean that Chinese yarns and fabrics will be shipped to Oman, cut and sewn into garments and then exported duty-free to the U.S.
The U.S.-Oman FTA threatens national security. As reported on the Lou Dobbs Tonight show of June 28, "Under the Oman free trade agreement, foreign port operators would have a right, an absolute trade agreement right, to establish operations, to acquire, to operate, to run port facilities within the U.S." Under the "Cross Border Trade in Services" chapter of the U.S.-Oman FTA, a Dubai Ports World-type enterprise could acquire a company in Oman, and then operate U.S. ports through that company.
The U.S.-Oman FTA threatens our national independence. Just as a European-wide free trade agreement has led to the loss of sovereignty of European nations to the European Union, and just as NAFTA (North American Free Trade Area) is now being converted into a sovereignty-destroying North American Union through the creation last year of the Security and Prosperity Partnership (SPP) of North America, the U.S.-Oman FTA is designed to help bring about a Middle East Free Trade Area (MEFTA), which would be another sovereignty-destroying, supranational organization to which the U.S. would belong.
FWIW, I was instructed to post this.
Subject: Never Argue With A Woman
One morning the husband returns after several hours of fishing and decides to take a nap.
Although not familiar with the lake, the wife decides to take the boat out. She motors out a short distance, anchors, and reads her book.
Along comes a fisheries officer in his boat. He pulls up alongside the woman and says, "Good morning, Ma'am. What are you doing?"
"Reading a book," she replies, (thinking, "Isn't that obvious?")
"You're in a Restricted Fishing Area," he informs her.
"I'm sorry, officer, but I'm not fishing. I'm reading."
"Yes, but you have all the equipment. For all I know you could start at any moment. I'll have to take you in and write you up."
"If you do that, I'll have to charge you with sexual assault," says the woman.
"But I haven't even touched you," says the fisheries officer.
"That's true, but you have all the equipment. For all I know you could start at any moment."
"Have a nice day ma'am," and he left.
MORAL: Never argue with a woman who reads. It's likely she can also think.
Having been accused of being a conspiracy nut, I can say in all earnestness, that Humpty Dumpty was pushed.
Tina Marie: I have botched trying to post pictures of various Chatty Cathys. I'll eventually get it right. I hope that you don't have a pull string.
MrSparex: to which moon are you referring? A cup of coffee and two spoonfuls of sugar will get to a certain moon in a hurry.
QuickTrade: a lot of us can root for A.E., but for an entity, in the sector, to be commercially viable is another matter. We'll get there.
cosmoworld7: my point, exactly. See what a thriving conversation starter that it has become?
Investorman: no problem; life is like a bowl full of cherries ... except the pits get stuck in your teeth.
Here's something to research a bit. Years ago, I saw a maple leaf, that was partially torn, have its aura display as whole via Kirlian photography.
Newly2b: hmmmm, you might want to look into advanced Reiki and other healing and energy arts. I can guarantee that physics has no explanation for healing without even touching. The science that is used in Creation stands in testimony against fraudulent pseudoscience theories that often contradict proven laws of science.
Reddog65: the correct terminology for IHub readers is: to introduce rapid oxidation upon compressed, desiccated vegetable matter.
BTW, a technique, used among skilled horticulturalists, who cultivate Cannibus sativa, is to shock the plant just before harvest. It then becomes an established irony that the imbibed particles of the plant shocks the user. Can you say schizophrenia?
Newly: God created rhythm into everything. This explains how energy is felt from one source to another.
Yack! Yack! Yack! Would you like some tea with that?
Reddog65: sort of paradoxical, eh?
Reddog65: time lapse photography has demonstrated plants, such as celery, cringing just before a knife slices through its stalk (while it is still in the ground); asparagus still grows, after it is picked. Most sprouts, in salads, are still alive. This is beneficial, healthwise, as this is an excellent natural source of MSM (methylsulfonylmethane [organic sulfur]) and enzymes. Mimosa pudica can die from a nervous breakdown, if handled too much (It's aptly named the sensitive plant.).
Investorman: what? You didn't notice my pink Yugo outside? Sorry, as I'm not exactly too favorable toward Amazon.com. You must admit that they make for handy links, though. We will gladly accept your replacements.
Newly2b: it goes beyond just that book, though a fine one and one mentioned in this link: http://www.investorshub.com/boards/read_msg.asp?message_id=12086833
Also you can post on this board: http://www.investorshub.com/boards/board.asp?board_id=5850
All creatures eat other living things, whether or not they are actually alive, at the time. One of my deleted posts was "tongue and cheek." (Oh Groan!)
Newly2b: since you can't respond to PMs, here's a link to follow up on a discussion that was wiped out because we were Chatty Cathys, rather than Betsy Wetsys. http://www.investorshub.com/boards/read_msg.asp?message_id=12086833
Matt: please leave this one here and I'll promise to restrict my postings here.
