BUGS jumped .0019 x .0018. buy before it gets to .01. hurry weeeeeeeeeeeeee
the perfect storm was a great movie except for the ending but the perfect pps storm would be even better as we would be the live players in the drama and have a great ending
ty and ditto. We held very steady this whole month of July - a very good sign of investors confidence. Going into August when cane activity normally gets real active and hopefully a great PR on 3rd quarter (based on what we heard about the last 2 quaters) really has set the stage for hopefully a very prosperous August. And do not forget all of September which has quite a reputation for trouble. So hold on and buckle up - it could be a wild ride to maybe .10 or higher but .05 would be great and above gravy.

AWESOME MATRIX ON CANE HISTORY BY YEAR WITH MAP AND DETAIL FOR EACH YEAR. NICE AND CONCISE. GREAT STUFF, MANCHILD
yessir - you gotta stop dreaming and face reality - at least 200% or higher. HaHaHaHaHaHa
Great suggestion Sandman601. Wish it was that easy. But there are rules we moderators and assistants have to work within.
Pumpers or dumpers or those that are neutral have a right to post as long as it is about the stock, it is not a overly personal attack, and not profanely offensive. Thats the rules and if i deleted this whole conversation about whose point is right Admin would undo those those deletes and have them reposted. Gotta stay within the rules - and i thing the rules are fair. I think it is also healty to the extant that both sides try to back up their differences and one can chew the meat and spit out the bones and actually become a better and wiser investor. So if we have to operate by the book lets make the most of it and let it work for us and not against us. GO NSMG -Bring on the canes. Hype does not move this stock but good pr's and canes do.
fung derf - you sure are immature in your thinking. my buys that i bought back in nov and dec when they were .005 and i am still holding are up almost 200% and if this goes to .05, .10, .20 well you do the math. 500% to over a 1000%.
I think i will stay just where i am at - thank you. i don't find your advice worth a flip - play on words there - pretty good eh
for those who are patiently holding and buying on the dips you are all doing the right thing. Sure it has been quite but the lid could come off anytime between now and september especially the highest peak period mid aug to mid sept. it is not that unusual for june and july to be quite but august is just around the corner and could deliver some real fireworks. That fireworks could be kicked off by a nice pr and 3rd quater results due some time in august - maye early. nice volume today and bid is starting to hold around .015. nice move up from low .01's a week ago or so.
Some model forecast on 97L
Naah. stay cool. you know we are at the bottom of a steep mountain. hold those shares. We got a way to baby - i hope others got common sense to know NOW IS THE TIME TO BUY OR ELSE YOU WILL BE CHASING THE BUY PRICE AS THE ENGINES ARE ABOUT TO IGNITE FOR OPERATION NSMG LIFTOFF 2009.
Some model forecast on 97L
Jeff Masters ups odds 30-50% on 97L for tropical depression. See map also below
The tropical wave near 12N 52W, about 600 miles east of the Lesser Antilles Islands (97 L), has grown more organized this morning as it tracks west at about 20 mph. This wave is surrounded by an area of very dry air from the Sahara Desert, but 97L has been able to steadily moisten a large region of the atmosphere over the past day, insulating itself from the dry air. This moistening process has been aided by sea surface temperatures (SSTs) that have steadily increased from 26.5°C to 27.5°C, plus the presence of only 10 knots of wind shear. The system now has a small area of intense thunderstorms near its center, with some rotation of the cloud pattern evident at mid-levels of the atmosphere. An upper-level outflow channel has opened to the north, and there is evidence that surface spiral bands are beginning to form. This morning's QuikSCAT pass missed 97L, so we don't know what is happening at the surface.
Wind shear is a modest 10 knots over the disturbance, and is forecast to remain in the moderate 10 - 15 knot range through Monday morning. This should allow further development to occur today, and 97L could be approaching tropical depression strength on Monday as it moves through the central Lesser Antilles Islands. Monday night, shear is expected to rise to 20 - 30 knots, thanks to the presence of a trough of low pressure at upper levels of the atmosphere over the eastern Caribbean. Since 97L is a relatively small system, it is very vulnerable to wind shear. This shear may be able to drive some of the dry air west of 97L deep into its interior, significantly disrupting the disturbance. Shear will remain high along 97L's path through Thursday, when the storm should be in the western Caribbean near Cuba. If there is anything left of 97L by then, some development is possible. The National Hurricane Center gave 97L a low (less than 30% chance) of developing into a tropical depression in the next 48 hours in their 8am Tropical Weather Outlook. However, I'd say the odds are now in the medium range (30 - 50%).
None of the computer models are forecasting tropical storm development over the next seven days.

Bill Gates knows it won't work but if he can get the government to pass billions of dollars ($$$$$$$$$$$) to use his patented technology because of who he is - HELLO. What a joke. I can see the first hurricane they try and all his patented technology strewn all over some beach where it washed up. The government is out billions and Bill Gates laughing his head off all the way to the bank $$$$$$$$$
Is Interfering with Hurricanes Worth It?

In the past few years, Atlantic hurricanes have wreaked havoc on coastlines in the Gulf of Mexico, causing destruction of both lives and property.
But can anything be done to weaken hurricanes? Microsoft founder Bill Gates and a team of scientists think there is.
Gates and his team have a patent pending for a technological system that may put a stop to powerful hurricanes in the Gulf by altering the temperature of the ocean.
The technology is a system of devices that feature floating tubs attached to pipes that extend to the ocean's depths. One pipe pumps deeper, colder water to the surface, while a second pipe pumps the warmer surface water to the bottom. These devices are portable and can be dropped from airplanes in a oncoming hurricane's path.
Tropical hurricanes rely on warm water to fuel the towering thunderstorms, which make the storm more powerful. A storm traveling over cooler water temperatures would have weaker thunderstorms, and the intensity of the storm could weaken considerably.
Despite this, there are still a lot of unknowns about how hurricanes gain strength.
"We don't fully understand enough about hurricane intensification to have faith in this experiment," AccuWeather.com Expert Senior Meteorologist Dan Kottlowski said.
"Ocean temperatures are only part of what sustains a hurricane," said AccuWeather.com Expert Senior Meteorologist Henry Margusity.
"Cutting off the ocean's warmth does not mean the storm will weaken quickly," Margusity said. Other factors such as storm size, moisture projected and concentration of thunderstorms in the area can all affect the strength of a storm.
However, hurricane paths are not always precise, and dropping the devices in the proper location in time for the waters to cool and the storm to pass over them may not always be easy, Kottlowski noted.
"The track of a storm can always change," Kottlowski said. "We don't know exactly how much water would have to cool before it has a major affect on a hurricane, especially an intense hurricane."
Altering underwater ocean current and temperature can also have serious consequences for marine life. The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) also argues that changing the ocean temperature on the surface would harm marine ecosystems.
"...Consider the creatures of the sea. If you suddenly cool the surface layer of the ocean... you would alter the ecology of that area and probably kill most of the sea life contained therein," NOAA's Hurricane Research Division said on its Web site. "A hurricane would be devastating enough on them without our adding to the mayhem."

The global ocean Sea Surface Temperature (SST) for June 2009 was the warmest on record, 0.59°C (1.06°F) above the 20th century average. This broke the previous June record set in 2005. The record June SSTs were due in part to the development of El Niño conditions in the Eastern Pacific. If El Niño conditions continue to strengthen during the coming months, we will probably set one or more global warmest-month-on-record marks later this year.

Great post Rhino. Was waiting on this a while since you posted it was coming. You did not dissapoint. Its like going to the races and everyone is jockeying for position. you can feel the excitement and electricity in the air building. You know the shotgun is going to go off soon and we will all be stampeding down the track to the finish line. I'll be happy with win, place or show because this year the odds are in our favor and i see green, plenty fo green. Folks better be buying now at these lows because soon they will be just a memory of what they could have bought at. Good luck to all and GO NSMG.
harvard_88 - fully loaded for south of the border - Mexico way. website or no website this baby will move as it traditionally does. These buys won't last long at these pps.
Yea, I picked up a decent number of shares at some of those low prices back in winter/spring months of 08/09. Glad you held. I feel a lot didn't and wished they did. i also have averaged in .01 and higher. should do good, great if your forecast holds true.
great to have you aboard chevdawg18 - good luck
l know you want me to delete that, but i am not for the record to show everyone you can dish it out but can't take it yourself. yesterday, lets see you called all of us hyhenas, and you have called us all mullets, and then you wonder why most of us think your opinion is worth less than 0-. Maybe, and thats maybe, if you say something positive i would remove the minus sign.
TAKI - Welcome back for the summer cane olympics
WELL LOOK AT THAT. BACK UP TO .0169
nobody assigned me to evaluate opionions but please respect my right to my opinion as you have yours.
fung-derf,
By now your opinion is worth 0-. Now look at this chart and see where todays date is - July 10. Anybody that is not holding or not buying at this time because of quite season so far does not understand cane history. This chart shows we are just at the bottom of the mountain of activity and things will pick up soon. Anybody saying anything different does not know what they are talking about because history of canes as reflected in this chart is the real world not just my opionion nonsense.
sounds good - good luck
looks like g-ianni called your bluff. death and destruction was mentioned only in the light of the historical record that it happened back in 2004 AD in an el nino season where some think it cannot happen. In fact, i recall during a previous cane season where caners made some good profit but death and destruction did happen and most of them felt bad said they were going to red cross and donate blood. Thats doing a lot more than those on the sidelines complaining about nature which they have no power over in most cases. GO NSMG GO CANERS
Jeff Masters sites 2004 as el nino year and looked what happened. 3000 people killed and $40 billion damage
Posted by: JeffMasters, 1:48 PM GMT on July 08, 2009
It's an El Niño year, which typically means that Atlantic hurricane activity will be reduced. But not all El Niño events are created equal when it comes to their impact on Atlantic hurricane activity. Over the past 150 years, hurricane damage has averaged $800 million/year in El Niño years and double that during La Niña years. The abnormal warming of the equatorial Eastern Pacific ocean waters in most El Niño events creates an atmospheric circulation pattern that brings strong upper-level winds over the Atlantic, creating high wind shear conditions unfavorable for hurricanes. Yet some El Niño years, like 2004, don't fit this pattern. Residents of Florida and the Gulf Coast will not soon forget the four major hurricanes that pounded them in 2004--Ivan, Frances, Jeanne, and Charley. Overall, the 15 named storms, 9 hurricanes, and 6 intense hurricanes of the hyperactive hurricane season of 2004 killed over 3000 people--mostly in Haiti, thanks to Hurricane Jeanne--and did $40 billion in damage
BILL,
Just added a couple 100 thou. This one is going to reach pennyland heaven.
Tongue-in-cheek is a term used to refer to humor in which a statement, or an entire fictional work, is not meant to be taken seriously, but its sarcasm is subtle. The origin of its usage comes from when Spanish minstrels would perform for various dukes in the 18th century; these dukes would silently chastise the silliness of the minstrel's performances by placing their tongue firmly to the side of their cheek. The Oxford English Dictionary defines it as "Ironic, slyly humorous; not meant to be taken seriously".
understood. Now, lets make some serious money! GO NSMG
Jimmy Mac, This is second similiar statement to your previous post
'Sure its early...and all we have here are the same ol deadbeats.......er...investors...Rhino and G-ianni excluded (my bad G-ianni....my good bud G-ianni is a true 'Caner" and a valued asset to this board)and Rhino is "da man".'
Please stop calling other investors deadbeats other than the ones you selectively name implying all others are - myself included. It borders on personal attacks to these other investors and myself whether you like them or not. As moderator just letting you know. Other than that your posts are great.

cheapie stock trades that can pay big bucks. Just how i like them.
i just used common sense. to morrow morning it will most likely open at the same and then reset itself back to .016 after an hour or so. Some may call it suspicious i just call it investment politics. The trend line has been slanted upwards while their have been no canes and that is positive news for those holding and investing. When canes come the trend line will go vertical. GO NSMG
Closed at .02. went from .016 to .02 last 20 seconds. i called it LOL
was not referring to bid but Closing price
If no action before 3:55 i say MM will reset it at .019 or .02 by 4 pm close.
bid price has been holding and moving up steadily and thats what really matters most to me
HARVARD_88,
Very enlightening and well spoken. BUGS is one i am watching closely and currently fully loaded. It is clear that hurricane season is a plus for this stock but the direction they are taking may turn out to be much more than just a seasonal play that it has been in the past.
