When you watch a DVD there are two ways to do this, either you buy the DVD or you rent the DVD. There are now also two ways to rent a movie, one can run into their closest Blockbuster (NYSE: BBI) or jump online and have the movie shipped home in a very speedy manner.
Why leave the house when you can just have your movies shipped to your mailbox? It seems that many people are catching onto this idea, one reason why companies such as Netflix (Nasdaq: NFLX) have been seeing recent success. It was only a matter of time before this same idea was applied to video games. Gamefly.com took the initiative and established a service built on the same ideas as Netflix. Gamefly.com until recently has enjoyed a lack of competition, but like with any great idea, there is always a second player in the game, with a goal to beat out the original player.
The new guy in town is a small company that goes by the name of GameZnFlix (OTCBB: GZFX.OB). Starting in November GameZnFlix and Circuit City (NYSE: CC) signed an agreement where Circuit City would promote GameZnFlix on a trial basis in a select number of its stores. This is not a bad accomplishment for a relatively unknown company to obtain. The fact that many OTC stocks tend to appear and disappear makes many investors nervous and because of this reason many people do not invest in these stocks.
GameZnFlix stands out from many other OTC stocks. Many of these OTC companies flood investors with all kinds of promising news and possible deals, but promise is the only thing that occurs. GameZnFlix has exceeded many of these companies by actually already getting the wheels in motion. The "trial partnership" with Circuit City will make more investors feel at ease when investing in this company. It remains to be seen how successful this partnership will be, but if the limited number of stores are reporting any type of success, expect Circuit City to offer this service in all of its stores. The potential is clearly there for success, but until GameZnFlix releases a statement on the early results of this partnership investors can only hope things are going well.
Taking a look at the chart below, many bullish events are occurring.
There have been numerous bounces off the increasing 50 DMA. Strong support appears to have been established at $.0127. It appears likely that the next run will test the $.015 resistance. If this $.015 resistance area is broken, there is very little in the way of resistance until $.02. The last rally in late November took shares to just below $.025, if the $.015 resistance is broken, expect another rally to occur with a higher high than the $.025 reached in November.
As always there is a high level of risk with any OTC stock. A statement from GameZnFlix regarding the success with Circuit City can either cause shares to triple in value in a single trading day or send shares back to the sub-penny level.

I don't believe this!!!...How SAD!

Joy turns to grief: just one miner survived...
By Jon Hurdle
TALLMANSVILLE, West Virginia (Reuters) - Only one man survived after an explosion in a West Virginia coal mine, a mine official said on Wednesday, transforming joy into grief and anger just hours after a mistaken report emerged that 12 of 13 missing miners were still alive 40 hours after the blast.
Ben Hatfield, president of mine owner International Coal Group Inc., blamed the earlier report on "miscommunication" and said that the company had then waited until it could determine which of the miners were dead or alive to tell the families their fate.
Anne Meredith, whose father died in the incident, said: "I feel that we were lied to all along," adding that she planned to sue ICG.
Virginia Dean, whose uncle was in the Sago mine in central West Virginia, reacted by saying, "Only one lived. They lied."
"The initial report from the rescue team to the command center indicated multiple survivors, but that information proved to be a miscommunication," Hatfield told a press conference.
He denied the company had confirmed the initial report, and said he did not want to assign blame to the rescue team.
Late on Tuesday night rescue workers located the 12, who had been trapped underground since 6:30 a.m. (1130 GMT) on Monday when the explosion had spread lethal gases in the mine.
The sole survivor, identified by Hatfield as Randal McCloy, was taken by ambulance to a nearby hospital where staff physician Dr. Susan Long said he arrived unconscious and in critical condition. He was stabilized with a breathing tube and sent by ambulance to a bigger hospital, she said.
Earlier on Tuesday, Terry Helms, the first of the missing miners to be discovered, was found dead near the site of the explosion. The later discovery of an empty miner transport car further away gave rise to hopes the 12 other men had been deeper in the mine and had escaped to an area where they could avoid toxic gases.
'MIRACLE'
The sadness and fury that greeted Hatfield's statement contrasted with earlier jubilation after a man burst into nearby Sago Baptist Church where family members were holding vigil, shouting: "It's a miracle, it's a miracle!" and saying that the 12 men had been found alive.
Bells rang at the church and cheers broke out when the announcement was made.
Any hope of finding the men alive had been tempered with caution because early tests found lethal levels of carbon monoxide in the tunnel where they were believed trapped. Each man carried only about one hour's worth of clean air, and there had been no communication with them since the explosion.
West Virginia Gov. Joe Manchin said he had no idea how the miscommunication had occurred and would be conducting an enquiry to determine that. "I don't have the answers for that. I wish I did. I will," he told a news conference.
Manchin said that he was in the church talking to family members when he became of aware of rejoicing that 12 had survived. He denied that he or his staff had ever confirmed the report and said that he had begun receiving information that it was not accurate 20 minutes after the announcement. He said it had taken almost three hours to correct the mistake, because authorities did not want to get it wrong again.
"I can't tell you of anything more heart-wrenching that I have gone through in my life," he said.
There was no explanation for the explosion, which occurred in a recently closed section of the mine, which employs about 145 miners.
"We know that there had to be methane gas, or a buildup of fuel if you will, back there, and there had to be something that sparked it. And no one can speculate on ... what could have happened," Manchin said earlier.
The men had been trapped some 13,000 feet inside the mine.
The incident came four years after nine Pennsylvania coal miners were rescued following a 77-hour ordeal in a flooded mine shaft 240 feet under ground.
The explosion happened when the Sago mine was reopening after being closed for the holidays.
Since October, the U.S. Mine Safety and Health Administration has issued 50 citations to the Sago mine, some as recently as December 21, including citations for accumulation of combustible materials such as coal dust and loose coal.
The MSHA said in a statement early on Wednesday it would begin an in-depth investigation, including "how emergency information was relayed about the trapped miners' conditions."

TALLMANSVILLE, West Virginia (Reuters)
Twelve missing miners were found alive in a West Virginia coal mine about 40 hours after they fled an explosion that spread lethal gases and killed one of their colleagues, family members said.
Rescue workers located the 12 men, who had been trapped underground since 6:30 a.m. (1130 GMT) on Monday and were bringing them out of the Sago mine in central West Virginia.
Kay Weaver, whose brother-in-law Jack Weaver was in the mine, said family members learned of the rescue when a man burst into the nearby Sago Baptist Church where relatives were waiting, shouting: "It's a miracle, it's a miracle!."
Anna McCloy, whose husband Randall McCloy was rescued said "This is wonderful, wonderful news, they are coming out."
Officials said the man who died appeared to have been dropped off the vehicle carrying his colleagues and was close to the explosion site, while the other 12, many of them veterans of the mine, had been deeper inside.
Church bells rang at the church, where relatives waited fearfully and cheers broke out when the announcement was made. West Virginia officials had tried to maintain hope among the families, saying they should pray for a miracle.
Any hope of finding the men alive had been tempered with heavy caution because early tests found lethal levels of carbon monoxide in the tunnel where they were believed trapped. Each man carried about one hour's worth of clean air.
There had been no communication with the miners since the explosion, West Virginia Gov. Joe Manchin told reporters.

"We know that there had to be methane gas, or a buildup of fuel if you will, back there, and there had to be something that sparked it. And no one can speculate on ... what could have happened," Manchin said.
EXPLOSIVE GAS
He said there had been no cave-in but the explosion had broken seals preventing bad air from circulating in the mine as well as gas from the explosion. "Our employees were no doubt trying to find a safe way to exit the mine," he said.
The men had been trapped more than 13,000 feet (4,000 metres) inside the mine.
The man who died was Terry Helms, a 35-year veteran of the mine, his niece Michele Mouser said. "He was a great guy. He was willing to help anybody. He always put anybody else first and himself last," she said.
The incident came four years after nine Pennsylvania coal miners were rescued following a 77-hour ordeal in a flooded mine shaft 240 feet under ground.
The explosion happened when the mine was reopening after being closed for the holidays, said Manchin's spokeswoman Lara Ramsburg.
Since October, the U.S. Mine Safety and Health Administration has issued 50 citations to Sago mine, some as recently as December 21, including citations for accumulation of combustible materials such as coal dust and loose coal.
The mine produces about 800,000 tons of coal annually and employs about 130 people.

Irish Poker...
Six retired Irishmen were playing poker in O'Leary's apartment when Paddy Murphy loses $500 on a single hand, clutches his chest and drops dead at the table. Showing respect for their fallen brother, the other five continue playing standing up.
Michael O'Conner looks around and asks, "Oh, me boys, someone got's to tell Paddy's wife. Who will it be?"
They draw straws. Liam Gallagher picks the short one. They tell him to be discreet be gentle, don't make a bad situation any worse.
"Discreet??? I'm the most discreet Irishmen you'll ever meet. Discretion is my middle name. Leave it to me"
Gallagher goes over to Murphy's house and knocks on the door Mrs. Murphy answers and asks what he wants. Gallagher declares: "Your husband just lost $500 and is afraid to come home"
"Tell him to drop dead!" says Murphy's wife.
"I'll go tell him." says Gallagher.

It's been a LONG time since I traded 'Puts' and 'Calls'...
Low Volume?...102MM?...The ten day average volume...
Is 49MM...I'll take UP 6.92% ANY Day...
A decent gain, and it Held...
Nice consolidation in an uptrend...
There may be a gap up at the open tomorrow...
A VERY Good day today...IMHO
The charts predicted some 'movement' with the Bollie Bands as tight as they were...
Too Funny 'train85'...
"Freebies" can't 'Ignore' here on IHUB...LMAO
R U Playing this one today?
If it double tops here, and breaks below 14.64
It sure could see 14.40
I don't think I'll risk that, and bail out at 14.63
I don't think so...That would be a 100% pullback...
From the BreakOut...I say 14.60 will hold, which is a 50% pullback...I really think this one is in 'Rally Mode' again, and we could see close to 16.00 in the near future...
That's where the upper Bollinger Band sits on the Weekly Chart...
http://www.investorshub.com/boards/read_msg.asp?message_id=9090814
A close above 14.28 on the Daily Chart is HUGE...
And today's Volume is double the ten day average volume of 690K...
And look at the size of today's candlestick on the Daily Chart today...
That calls for more UpSide tomorrow IMO...
But what the frankie do I know?...LOL
'knocker05'...I'm glad you made it here...
Especially on a GREAT! DAY for RBAK like today...
On a HUGE Break Out...
And I'd like to say:
The Board!
RBAK!!! Doing GOOD Today ;^)))
Do you still have 'one eye' on it today Snap?
A few comments on the GZFX chart...
That I'm sure have been mentioned before, but...
Today's pps hit the upper Bollinger Band, and pushed it UP...
Today's close will be the first time it has closed Above the middle BBand, since the first of December...
The Volume today should exceed 100MM shares, which is double the ten day average volume of 49MM...
The A/D Line has broken above the 20MA for the first time in a while, and look what the pps has done in the past when that happens...
The CMF-Chaulkin Money Flow has gone positive for the first time in a while...
ALL VERY BULLISH Signals...

Cool, but it claims we have PS Games...
And another site that was posted last night says we don't???
Nice! Find Goldman...
"Our Featured DVD & Video Game Rental Company"...Wow!
78MM shares traded today...
The ten day average volume is: 48,946,260
The volume has slacked off in the last hour and a half,
But it will probably pickup again if we bust up through .0145
Lunchtime is almost over, and I think .0145 will be taken out as more Buyers come in by the EOD...
