Welcome all, don't forget to boardmark...

Nice to see you here Clay.

Awesome board guys, thanks for letting me in on it again. I'm in MMTE, BLDV, and SRSR. I wish my full time job could be just to read these messages and trade, but alas, I'm still a few years away from that.. until then, I'll be in and out but I'll look forward to some big gains with all of you.

here's the shot of adrenaline:

As someone with a very small cushion, I agree :).. That being said, it is definitely relative.

Greenfuel Technologies has always been on my watch list as I drive by it in Cambridge every day. Lately, though there's been a "for lease" sign on their building, I'm not sure if they're trying to rent out shell space or if it's something more suspicious, but I'm not surprised to hear they've had problems over the past year. If anyone needs DD on this one, let me know!

Hey Soapy, where's the next support on NILSY? 20.85?

I'm tired of having all my money tied up in stocks that aren't moving :-\

Hello All,
I've been waiting for a Green Board to pop up, it's about time, and with some of my favorite posters no less! I look forward to contributing some ideas here.

I'll start with:

WNBD
I know, 'WNBD' sounds old and uninteresting at this point, but I have been long on it since before[/] I knew about Ihub, and believe in the company as a true and honest one with level headed management. (Plus, how many pinksheet stocks have several products on shelves in multiple states and all through Canada in Home Depot and Wal Mart Canada? The name sounds tired, but it's just the beginning.. and it's only at a cent.)

and

PURO
www.puriowatertechnology.com
Very speculative at this point but it seems to have bottomed for now at .20 while they do some preliminary testing with a new product. I think they could be a huge player in the water conservation industry over the next several years. Definitely both long plays. Wait for any volume and this could fly.

7 x8 last 9?

Hello OntaREEo and Jraska,
Not surprised either of you are here :) My first post on the junior mining board, thanks for the heads up.

Thanks Nightroads, I will be watching it today.

Got more BLDV today after that post by Sterling. Just wish they'd update us soon so I can buy more WNBD and SRSR!

Do large national retailers ever have any kind of hesitation in dealing with pinksheet companies? I wonder if we could see a voluntary reporting PR before August..

Anyone with more cash than me ready to slap EOD?

Not filling my .008's

Hasn't been able to? Are we sure he's even tried? Wouldn't be surprised if they're on his very large radar, but I'm guesing he has other fish to fry first :)

I'm off to play Amesbury Pines again, have a great weekend all... three.. of you... :) If you build it, they will come.

We have a lot of stock discussion too, does that count?

I just had someone request that I make my Disc Golf Traders board public instead of premium, is this possible?

Yeah, my buddy isn't quite as serious as I am with the pars, so we had several par 4's yesterday.. The eagles were on Par fours. If everyhting had been a par three, I imagine I would have gotten about -5.. but this course is pretty unique. It's easy if you're on, and still average difficulty even if you're having a really bad day.

Where do you all think WNBD will be in one year?


If you think it's hard to have patience, imagine being this guy:

http://www.nypost.com/seven/07102008/news/regionalnews/losers_65m_win_119253.htm

We will get rewarded sooner than he did, IMO.

I played inAmesbury MA yesterday, got a personal record on the course. Three eagles, 4 birdies, but we played with several par 4's. Ended with -10.

Also, did some DD on SRSR last night which was equally as exciting. I need to hit a homerun before I can invest any significant amount of money anywhere, though.. only 25 and in a lot of debt, after all :(

When is the 10 expected? My apologies, just starting DD on this.

Is the U.S. Ready for Bio-Warfare?
By Erick Stakelbeck
CBN News Terror Analyst
July 10, 2008


CBNNews.com - WASHINGTON - Anthrax. Smallpox… these words were commonplace following 9/11 as potential weapons of terror against the United States.

Some experts believe a bioterrorist attack or pandemic outbreak could be inevitable. So how would the U.S. fight back against an infectious disease outbreak?

Hollywood Fantasy - or Grim Reality?

Picture this frightening scenario: a contagious virus breaks out in America's heartland. Spreading quickly, it overwhelms hospitals making thousands violently ill and killing hundreds.

RELATED STORY:
How America Is
Funding Terrorism

RELATED BLOG:
Stakelbeck on Terror
Chaos rules the streets and the economy is in shambles.

Then our worst fears are confirmed: terrorists have released smallpox onto the American public.

No, this isn't a Hollywood blockbuster. It's an actual terror threat the U.S. government wants to be prepared to fight.

"We still need to beef up and get ready for when the next human being purposely infects himself or herself to come into the United States with an intention of either infecting humans or infecting our food source," said Frank Rapoport, a government consultant on bioterrorism issues.

Frank Rapoport helps the government with bioterrorism issues.

"After 1991, when 40,000 Russian scientists dispersed all over the globe because they were no longer employed by the Soviet Union - where do you think they went for employment, with the knowledge they have of how to weaponize e-bola, the plague, making a cocktail of the worst magnitude?" Rapoport challenged.

Some analysts believe former Soviet scientists sold this type of technology to countries like Iran, Syria and North Korea.

And then there's al-Qaeda. The Pentagon says the group has been pursuing biological weapons for years.

The most famous bio-terror case hit the U.S. shortly after 9/11 when anthrax was spread through the U.S. postal system.

Five people died and at least a dozen more suffered injuries after handling the contaminated mail. Investigators still don't know who was behind those attacks.

"I think most people in the bio-defense world are dumbfounded as to why we haven't seen more bio-terror attacks. It is too easy to manufacture bioterror threats. They can be manufactured faster than countermeasures can be developed," said James Joyce, head of Aethlon Medical.

Countermeasures

Countermeasures are Joyce's specialty. His small biotech company, Aethlon Medical, has developed a device called the hemopurifier.

"What the device does is it mimics your own natural immune response of clearing the viruses and toxins before cells and organs can be infected." he explained. "It's specifically designed to address viral pathogens that are bioterrorism or pandemic threats."

The hemopurifier is about the size of a rolling pin.

Here's how it works: the device is hooked up to a dialysis machine, then attached to a body part - an arm for instance. It then filters that infected blood - viruses and toxins -- out of the body, cleans that blood, and sends the purified blood right back into the bloodstream.

Joyce says the device's biggest benefit is that it can be used to counter different threats, rather than just one specific virus or disease.

"The focus moving forward into the future is really broad specturm therapies that have the ability to address multiple strains of bioterror and pandemic threats," he said. "If you were to talk to experts in bioterrorism, they would say it's probably 50 to 70 viral pathogens that could be weaponized as an agent of bioterrorism."

In 2004 the Project Bioshield Act encouraged large pharmaceutical companies to develop vaccines and countermeasures to a bioterrorist attack.

Those companies mostly fell by the wayside because there would be little or no profit for those products.

That provided an opening for companies like Aethlon Medical. In 2006, Congress granted more funding for products like the hemopurifier.

The Threat of a Pandemic Outbreak

While terrorists and rogue regimes may be able to get their hands on them, biological weapons like anthrax are extremely difficult to weaponize. And the government is producing a growing number of vaccines and medicines to combat the threat.

A more likely scenario is an outbreak of a naturally occurring pandemic disease.

"The more we have an international economy and the more people travel the more they will be exposed to new organisms. And they'll bring them back home," said Julie Fischer, an expert on biodefense and global disease threats at the Henry L. Stimson Center in Washington.

"Someone can get on a plane in Bangkok and be in New York 17 hours later. That's not enough to build a defense. And as we learned from the SARS epidemic in 2003, it isn't just people in rural areas that would be affected," Fischer said.

The SARS epidemic started in China and spread to at least 30 countries, including the U.S. No vaccines existed and almost 800 people died after being infected.

Fischer says a pandemic outbreak of the H5N1 strain of influenza, or bird flu, may be the next major threat on the horizon. So is the U.S. prepared to deal with such a crisis?

Since 2002, the Bush administration has spent billions preparing for the effects of a bioterrorist attack or infectious disease outbreak. The government wants to stifle any potential outbreak before it even starts.

High-tech sensors have been installed in several American cities that can detect harmful airborne pathogens. Early detection may be able to save lives.

But at the end of the day, state and local governments may play the biggest role.

"People can't wait for the federal government to protect them," Fischer said. "If there is a biological attack, or if there is a pandemic, people will have to take reasonable steps to take care of themselves.

That means stocking up on water, canned goods and medical supplies, and being aware of the emergency plan for your community.

Can anyone read chinese? :)

Play Disc Golf.

This is an all-or-nothing play... most of us are aware of that. I don't need this board anymore, with all this ridiculous bickering reading the board has become more painful than even the reddest of days on my account. It will be obvious when BLDV news hits. When it does, I'll come back to celebrate. GLTA.

Wormald: nailing that three-metre window

Local flatball fanatic on the cult of disc golf

There are competing theories on what makes the discus such a popular sport, but whether it's the disc's graceful spin through the air, its sweeping curves, or the almost ballet-like ease at which it can be thrown, the discus has held an allure for almost 3,000 years.
But what about its latest incarnation, disc golf?

"People are saying it's the fastest growing recreational sport in the U.S. There are 100 courses in Texas alone, and three to four thousand courses in the world including three million players worldwide," says Rob Wormald, a self-professed disc golf fanatic and owner of the city's only disc golf store.

In the back of CD Exchange on Rideau Street, XPress sat down with Wormald in the Ultimate Disc Golf Store. It's an inner sanctum of a new cult complete with tournament memorabilia and racks of different discs, from drivers to mid-range to putters, as well as the store's very own 'hole': a metal pole with chain netting that hangs down from the top and catches the discs thrown into it, dropping them into a circular basket around its waist.

Wormald picks up a golf disc-a little smaller and harder than the average Frisbee-and tosses it into the netting. It makes a tinkling sound as the chains rattle.

"That is the greatest sound," he says smiling. But he doesn't have to tell me, I already know. I began "frolfing" at summer camp when I was younger. I was reintroduced to the game after discovering a course at Jacques Cartier Park in Hull with some friends.

Despite the attraction
of the store's discs, the city's three beautiful courses, the club and the regular tournaments, the sport's real allure is its accessibility.

"To get set up costs around $30, or you can come to the store and borrow discs for the whole day for your family for free, then go to your local course and play, which is also free," he says, adding, "It's also an ageless sport. You can play when you're five or when you're 65."

The cost is the most striking difference between disc golf and regular golf, a sport that generally only the wealthy can afford. But is it as challenging?

"I was talking to a golfer about disc golf and he just didn't get it. He kept saying, 'It just doesn't have the fine tuning golf has,' and I replied, 'What are you talking about? You can go into a forest and you've only got a three-metre window to put that disc through but you've also got to make it turn left at the end of an 80-metre course and lay it into the basket.' I mean, talk about fine tuning," he says.

So far there are three courses in Ottawa: Kanata, Jacques Cartier Park and one at Camp Fortune, which, according to Wormald, will soon be one of the best in the country.

Can't wait.

Check out the season's first tournament, The World's Biggest III, at Jacques Cartier Park on Saturday May 14 at 9 a.m. More information on disc golf, the courses, tournaments, rules and equipment can be found at www.odgc.ca or www.udgs.ca, or visit the Disc Golf store at 142 Rideau Street.

Thanks for the DD! Sounds great, to be honest I thought i had missed the bus and never looked into it. Is the uplisting a sure thing or is it only as sure as BLDV's is (almost sure?)?

This is a fun read on the sport (from Montreal!):
http://www.montrealmirror.com/2007/083007/outdoorsports3.html


Do you speak French?

can you tell me if this is anywhere near Montreal?
http://www.mont-avalanche.com/dg08.pdf

The better question is, do you contribute to the commercialization of the sport and charge for people to play, or do you go with the spirit of the game and let people play for free? I guess that depends on how high BLDV or SRSR go.

I never got into SRSR, unfortunately.. think it's not too late?

You have a TON of courses in MI. This is a crapshoot, but do you know of any around Montreal? The PDGA website doesn't list any in Canada, as far as I can tell.

If BLDV does what some people are expecting it to, I'm definitely building a disc golf course over the next year or so. We can have the shareholder party there ;)

You forgot the supposed wind energy?
