Crude $120...Up limit orders??? " oil nears $120 on weaker dollar
http://biz.yahoo.com/ap/080422/oil_prices.html?.v=27
NEW YORK (AP) -- Gas and oil prices pushed further into record high territory Tuesday, with retail gas reaching a national average of $3.51 for the first time and crude nearing $120 as the dollar fell to a new low against the euro.
At the pump, the national average price of a gallon of regular gas rose 0.8 cent Tuesday to $3.511, according to a survey of stations by AAA and the Oil Price Information Service. Prices for diesel -- used to transport most food, industrial and commercial goods -- also rose overnight to a new record of $4.204 a gallon.
Gas prices are nearly 66 cents higher than last year, when they peaked at a then-record of $3.23 in late May, and have prompted many analysts to raise their estimates of where gas is going to go.
"I wouldn't rule out the possibility that we could get to $4," said Antoine Halff, an analyst at Newedge USA LLC.
Other analysts are less certain. Fred Rozell, retail pricing director at the Oil Price Information Service, thinks gas prices will rise only another 10 cents to 20 cents nationally. That would mean they would peak near $4.15 a gallon in California, where prices are typically highest, and around $3.50 in New Jersey, where they're typically lowest.
Gas prices are rising for many reasons, including oil's record run. Light, sweet crude for May delivery rose to a new trading record of $119.90 before retreating to settle up $1.89 at a record $119.37 a barrel on the New York Mercantile Exchange. The contract expired after the Nymex closed, which contributed to its spike higher as investors scrambled to square bets. June crude futures, which now become the focus of trading, rose $1.44 to settle at $118.07 a barrel, nearly $2 shy of the $120 level.
On Capitol Hill, some lawmakers attempted to escalate scrutiny of oil and gas companies.
"People deserve a more scrupulous cop on the beat in these markets," said Rep. Jay Inslee, D-Wash., who along with Sen. Maria Cantwell, D-Wash., called for the Justice Department to investigate possible market manipulation.
Meantime, Sen. Dianne Feinstein, D-Calif., praised the Bush administration's proposal to increase the average fuel economy for new cars and trucks to 31.6 miles per gallon by 2015.
Soaring gasoline prices show "that we have to move much more aggressively toward improving fuel efficiency and help bring relief to American consumers," she said in a statement.
Many investors see commodities such as oil as a hedge against inflation and a falling dollar. Also, a weaker greenback makes oil cheaper for investors overseas.
The dollar fell Tuesday after the National Association of Realtors said sales of existing homes dropped in March while the median home price declined, raising prospects that the Federal Reserve will cut interest rates further this year to try to shore up the ailing economy. Fed interest rate cuts tend to further weaken the dollar.
Oil also rose on concerns about supply constraints overseas. A Royal Dutch Shell PLC joint venture declared what's known as force majeure on April and May oil delivery contracts from a 400,000-barrel-a-day Nigerian oil field due to a pipeline attack last week. The move protects the company from litigation if it fails to deliver on contractual obligations to buyers.
In Mexico, oil production slipped 7.8 percent in the first quarter to 2.91 million barrels a day as output at the country's oil fields waned, state oil company Petroleos Mexicanos said. In Scotland, workers at Ineos PLC's 196,000 barrel-a-day Grangemouth refinery and petrochemical plant threatened to strike over changes to an employee pension plan.
While gas prices are following oil futures higher, they're also rising because supplies are falling. Refiners are in the process of switching over from making winter grade gasoline to the more-expensive, less-polluting, form of the fuel they're required to sell in summer. That's pushing supplies down as producers try to sell off all of their winter gas.
Gasoline supplies are also being hurt by low profit margins. Refiners have to buy the crude they turn into fuel, but falling demand for gasoline has hurt their ability to raise gas prices as much as they would like. While the average profit margin on gasoline hovers above $10, analysts say margins have gone negative in some parts of the country in recent weeks. In those cases, refiners were actually losing money on every gallon of gas they made. Many refiners have reacting by producing less gas.
"Very high crude prices can constrain gasoline supplies as it hurts the margins," Halff said.
In other Nymex trading Tuesday, May gasoline futures rose 3.73 cents to settle at $3.0164 a gallon after earlier rising to a trading record of $3.025, while May heating oil futures rose 0.55 cent to settle at $3.3169 a gallon after earlier rising to their own trading record of $3.35. May natural gas futures fell 12.6 cents to settle at $10.607 per 1,000 cubic feet.
In London, June Brent crude rose $1.52 to settle at $115.95 a barrel on the ICE Futures exchange.

- The developer hopes to have approvals ready for groundbreaking in 2008.
LOL all the properties ECGR owns combined....do the math
without a single building built (at least not confirmed) and here we sit below 10c
Ahhhhh sleep on it.
Yup Those properties are Owned by ECGR...Not planned or proposed. Plus HFA's got deep pockets....we are in the sweet spot for news.
Ahh...ECGR DD || Enclave will make money off it's core properties. (I've Listed them below)
a] We are just waiting for the developement to begin.... or get word that in fact the Mesquite/Spring Magnolia sites are up!
b]We also have HFA's PointstreetLanding project; Pending City approval which looks like a go...Enclave will move forward
with it's lease to own program leasing 80 units for three years.

=============================================================
Here's how the program works:
http://pinksheets.com/edgar/GetFilingHtml?FilingID=4433365
The rent during the lease is established by taking into consideration the
following three components:
MONTHLY RENT:
Principal and interest for $ 138,000 loan at 7.5% for 30 years = $965
1/12 of the annual real estate taxes = $195
1/12 of the annual home owners insurance = $ 45
---------
Total Monthly Rent = $1,205
BENEFITS AND EQUITY:
Home appreciation at 3% per annum = $12,796
"Good Resident Credit" = $4,500
---------
Total Equity = $17,296
The key advantages of this program are that no down payment is required of
the homebuyer and the cost is the same as renting a similar apartment or home.
At the end of three years, the customer has over 10 % equity in the home.
The business plan starts with the first YOUR HOME Lease and Own community,
planned for the City of Mesquite in Dallas County, Texas, and would expand to a
planned eight (8) to ten (10) new communities in varying stages by the end of
2007, depending on our ability to draw down capital from the Standby Equity
Distribution Agreement. From the beginning of 2008 forward, our business plan
contemplates new construction of from 1,000 to 1,500 new homes each year. We
currently own four project sites that can accommodate a total of 1,652 units
that are either in the predevelopment phase (Grand Oaks), completing
entitlements phase (Eagle Nest and Spring Magnolia II), or are ready for
immediate construction of homes (Live Oak and Spring Magnolia I). We believe
that with the existing financing facilities and other resources, and our plan to
effect construction through third party general contractors, that this schedule
is reasonable. Nevertheless this schedule is subject to ongoing revision as
building opportunities occur or economic conditions change, including our
ability to acquire suitable land, obtain development and construction financing,
and market the units in the target jurisdictions.

I guess MacFarlene's making money off the parking too....Hehehe

Two more condos ready for residents in River District
Rivera and St. Tropez will be completed this month
BY JEFF CULL jcull@florida-weekly.com
COURTESY PHOTO An artist's rendering of the Mediterranee Resort & Spa next to the Edison Bridge in the River District. Developers will begin marketing in the fall.
Workmen are putting the finishing touches on two high-rise condominium buildings in downtown Fort Myers that will add more than 330 housing units to the expanding River District.
The Rivera and St. Tropez loom high above the adjacent Billy's Creek and next to Beau Rivage, the city's first high-rise condo project in more than two decades.
All but four of the units in the twin towers are sold, said developer Robert Kohn, who, along with partner Robert McFarland, runs Homes for America Holdings, Inc. Closings are expected to begin later this month.
It's been a nearly seven-year odyssey for Kohn and McFarland from the first time they viewed the property to completing the three condo projects.
"We were truly the first," Kohn said.
The pair started renovating affordable housing in the Northeast and gradually moved south and to bigger projects.
COURTESY PHOTO The Rivera and St. Tropez high-rise condos next to Beau Rivage, the first condo project in the River District in nearly two decades. All are developments of Homes for America Holdings, Inc. The Rivera and St. Tropez are nearing completion.
"We wanted to be involved in urban revitalization and on the water," Kohn said.
And when Fort Myers began looking for developers, Homes for America took a look.
"The first time we saw the property it was horrible," Kohn said. "The grass was high, there were old buildings scattered around the site. But we thought, 'if there's a way to get together with the city and develop it - it would be great.'"
Kohn said they saw the growth for highend condominiums moving north from Naples and south from Tampa/St. Petersburg. Fort Myers seemed like a natural.
So, they worked with city leaders and brought Dean Park residents - who live across Palm Beach Boulevard from the project - into the planning.
"We incorporated 70 to 80 percent of what the city council and Dean Park residents suggested," Kohn said. "We've had our differences but we've always worked them out."
Years later Beau Rivage opened and St. Tropez and Rivera began to take shape.
Now the developers have their sights on another project. Kohn and McFarland are gearing up to market a hotel/condominium on a spit of land between the Caloosahatchee and Edison bridges.
The Mediterranee Resort & Spa will have 300 rooms and 70 condominium residents.
Because of the utility work on Palm Beach Boulevard - the streets are barely navigable in some spots - marketing has been low-key, Kohn said. "Our emphasis is to finish Rivera and St. Tropez and get back to marketing Mediterranee once the roads get fixed," he said.
That should be in the fall.
Residents in the resort - units are priced from the low $300,000 to $700,000 - will have an al a carte menu of hotel services to choose from including maid service and room service.
Kohn said they are still negotiating with the hotel operator and couldn't revel its name but it will be "a well-known operator," he said.
Yet, with all of the success the developers have had in Fort Myers, Kohn can still recall the naysayers.
"Everyone told us how crazy we were - they said we were on the wrong side of town," Kohn said. "We felt they were wrong."
The northern part of the downtown had not been developed and that section of Palm Beach Boulevard was in disrepair.
Nearly seven years later, however, "It looks like we were right," Kohn said.
LOL Facts:
MacFarlene is freakin sick!!!!!
http://www.mrshc.com/
- The potential high-rise hotel's 1.96-acre parcel was purchased for US $1.2 million on December 31, 2003.
- The project was approved on January 13, 2005.
- The building's name should not be confused with The Monaco Beach Club of Naples, also in southwest Florida.
- The building will have a four story parking garage and retail base.
- The fifth floor will feature an outdoor recreation deck with lush landscaping and swimming pool overlooking the Caloosahatchee River.
- The building will have a state-of-the-art spa with yoga and aerobics studio and private massage and body treatment rooms.
- The building will offer residents and guests spectacular views over the Caloosahatchee River.
- Units will have two ceiling heights: 10 feet in typical units and 14 feet in upper level units.
- The design is very similar to that of NeoVertika in Miami.

He's doing so much for the children....
"GIVING BACK: FOR THE NEEDY CHILDREN OF THE WORLD
HC USA will donate Five cents ($0.05) for every bag of Healthy Coffee sold. This will be donated to a charitable organization, ie Rotary Club International, Gawad Kalinga Philippines, etc. with the condition that the donation will go to needy children (orphans, scholarships, etc.) in each country where we will set up an office.
Eventually HC USA will set up the Healthy Coffee Foundation to be able to give back more to the needy children of the world

those bastiges have shorted us to oblivion!!!!!
I could tell early on what was happening when I couldn't get a fill at the ask...and many others have complained in private about their buy orders for 300,000 shares not getting filled or only getting 15,000 Haaaa! TA what a joke....who's lefty think he's fooling.
