REPR - .15 + .07 on big volume - new defense play see filings
QTEK - breakout .20 on increasing volume minute x min
SEHO + .08 on big volume .26
QTEK - .20 breaking out on volume
SEHO .26 + .08 on big volume. Anyone here follow it? Defense play and security businesses.
SEHO - going bonkers anyone here have it?
DFNS - finished moving up end of day. Some newsletters are apparently getting involved soon. Look for bigger volume and see how it follows LENF and UGHO before that.
DFNS - should be close to 12 million in revenues, not one of your typical pumps. 25 million oustanding and float only about 5 million. Could go to 5-6 like LENF.
SEHO .19 + .05 on biggest volume since May.
Striving to become major player in security, major contracts on the way.
SEHO - may possibly be a major contract. This type of volume can't be ignored, more important than the price rise.
SIRI - just grabbed breakout 3.87.
HOward Stern - will bring SIRI to 10 billion dollar business.
DPAC .55 + .08 BREAK OUT on news - has turned its business totally around. Great balance sheet considering what it is doing.

IMX - 11.09 + .29 5 MILLION FLOAT
Implant Sciences Ships Portable, Hand-Held Quantum Sniffer Units On Time and On Schedule
Friday October 1, 8:00 am ET
WAKEFIELD, Mass.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Oct. 1, 2004--Implant Sciences Corporation (AMEX: "IMX", "IMX.WS") a developer and manufacturer of products for national security, medicine and industry, announced the on-time shipment on September 30, 2004 of three (3) production units of the Quantum Sniffer explosives detection device to a military agency in accordance with the terms of a certain contract awarded to the Company in October 2003.
Source: Implant Sciences Corporation
· View multimedia news release
The Quantum Sniffer is the Company's trace explosives detection device using the Company's patented, proprietary QS(TM) Ion Mobility Spectrometry technology, which electronically detects minute quantities of explosive vapor molecules in the air. These units may be used to determine the presence of, or confirm the absence of, common explosives in personal equipment, packages, postal mail and cargo that may be conveyed by persons, vehicles, airplanes, and watercraft.
Dr. Anthony J. Armini, PhD., CEO of Implant Sciences, commented, "This shipment of production-ready explosives detection equipment represents the culmination of several years of research, development and commercialization of our unique explosives detection technology. We believe the Quantum Sniffer could have a significant impact in effectively detecting trace amounts of explosives on personnel and vehicles. The Quantum Sniffer represents the first of many devices using our QS(TM) Ion Mobility Spectrometry technology that could be used as an effective tool in the war on terrorism."
Dr. Armini further commented, "Given the sensitive nature of our explosive detection contracts with government and military agencies, we are specifically prohibited from divulging any information to the public without the prior approval of the contracting agent. As the QS(TM) units shipping yesterday were evaluated, and subject to the requirements of confidentiality mandated by certain government and military agencies with whom we contract, we will provide further details as to the progress of the evaluations of our explosives detection devices. However, we believe that with this timely delivery of our commercially available QS(TM) explosives detection device, we are now in a position to exploit the distribution channels we have already established, and to add to our distribution channels, in order to actively seek orders from governmental agencies, the military sector, and companies in the private sector, both domestically and internationally."
The Company will be updating its corporate website at www.implantsciences.com as soon as possible to include photographs of the new portable, hand-held QS(TM) explosives detection devices and their shipping containers.

Great article thanks - what do long term longs feel about SHGY when compared to the search engines that are starting to challenge GOOGLE? How will it be unique or better?
thanks.
Hitting .21 I believe on a buy is big, especially with a kind of crappy market. To me, it looks like the beginning of a break out.
Competition - with so many making the move to be the "next google," how do we differentiate or predict which one or ones will be "search" winners.
Upstart Firm Launches New Web Search Site
Thursday September 30, 11:39 am ET
By Michael Liedtke, AP Business Writer
Online Search Engine Upstart Launches New Site With Sights Set on Google
SAN FRANCISCO (AP) -- Online search engine upstart Vivisimo Inc. is setting out to persuade the masses that Google Inc.'s vaunted technology isn't the most efficient way to find things on the Internet.
ADVERTISEMENT
The little-known Pittsburgh company is taking aim at Google and other industry leaders like Yahoo Inc. with a new search engine called Clusty.com, scheduled to debut Thursday after four years of fine tuning.
The search engine's name refers to the clustering technology that Vivisimo has refined to sort search results into different categories related to the initial search request.
For instance, entering "San Francisco" into Clusty.com's search box produces a set of general results at the center of the Web page, with a list of more specific categories, such as "Bay," "Hotel," "Art," "University" and "Giants" featured at the left. Clicking on any of the subgroups delivers a new list of links in the center of the page while still preserving the different groups.
Other search engines, most notably Ask Jeeves Inc.'s Teoma.com, offer similar clustering approaches, but Vivisimo's approach has been hailed as the most sophisticated and user-friendly.
The clustering technology is meant to simplify online search by breaking down results into related categories instead of bunching them in a single listing that can span tens of thousands of links scattered across hundreds of Web pages.
"There is almost too much information on the Internet now," said Vivisimo CEO Raul Valdes-Perez. "We think we have a better way to differentiate the results."
Valdes-Perez's likens Vivisimo's clustering system to a book store that stacks its selections by subject matter or author instead of just scattering all the titles across a sprawling floor.
Vivisimo already has attracted a cult following among the online cognoscenti who use a sample search engine offered on the company's Web site. The site handles about 6 million search requests per month -- an amount that Google processes in less than an hour on a typical day.
Despite its low profile, privately held Vivisimo turned profitable two years ago, Valdes-Perez said. The 20-employee company, seeded by a $1 million grant from U.S National Science Foundation, collects most of its revenue from licensing its technology to other Web sites.
Valdes-Perez, along with Vivisimo co-founders Jerome Pesenti and Christopher Palmer, decided the unusual spelling of the company's Web site frustrated visitors and prevented more people from discovering the clustering technology. That inspired the decision to launch a separate search engine under Clusty.com, which is expected to make money by displaying text-based ads common on other search engines.
Naming the new search engine Clusty probably wasn't the best choice, said industry observer Chris Sherman, predicting many people will confuse the site with Krusty the Clown from the TV show, "The Simpsons."
But Sherman does believe Clusty.com's approach will appeal to the widening audience of Web surfers who are becoming more discriminating as Google, Yahoo and Ask Jeeves add more bells and whistles to their own search engines.
"The search engine experience is becoming much richer," said Sherman, editor of Search Day, an industry newsletter. "The big question for (Clusty) is whether it will be able to generate enough buzz to get people to come try it out."
Clusty isn't relying solely on its clustering technology to make its mark. The site also is introducing a feature that offers customized index tabs devoted to Web blogs, or "blogs," online gossip and online auction giant eBay.
Supplanting Google as the Internet's search kingpin won't be easy, partly because the company's name -- also once ridiculed as a silly -- has become synonymous with looking things up online.
Google controls 36 percent of the Internet search market, trailed by Yahoo at 29 percent, according to the latest data from research firm comScore Networks. Software giant Microsoft Corp. hopes to make the market even more competitive with its own search engine at MSN.com.
Clusty also covers a small slice of the Web compared to the better-known search engines. The site will crawl 5 million to 10 million Web pages and draw upon the indexes of other sources to supplement its results. By comparison, Google crawls 4.3 billion Web pages.
"We don't think it matters if you are crawling 5 million or 5 billion pages because no one looks at more than a handful of the results anyway," Valdes-Perez said.

Does anyone have any numbers on revenues? I know it's too early for earnings but they should have revenues if they are going to distance themselves from all the google wannabees.

One problem is that you can only have 1 margin account at Ameritrade family. Every Freetrade account MUST be margin. So if you have another Ameritrade account with margin, you have to take the margin off of it.
OFCC - thanks for the posts on this and ABCI.
Do you have info on OFCC o/s and/or a/s? thanks in advance!
