Speaking of long walks I did a 12.5 mile hike through the forest today, it included a long stretch through some desolate beaches and saw five count'em "Five" Blue Herons" today. I've only saw 3 or 4 my entire life. Today was wicked cool, I really need a pizza and a movie.

lol>> Hey everybody, my name is Cuck Loser and I’m gonna be hanging out on this message board for months on end posting the same thing 20 times a day! If I say, “PSTI is dead money” enough times, I will magically turn from a loser into a prince, and will no longer be involuntarily celibate! Maybe if I complain about management in 20 additional posts a day, some girl will let me hold her hand!
I think that's pig latin.
I'm absolutely positive this is a low float stock. No way of checking on that as the transfer agent is persona non grata.
You can try as you will, after multiple e-mails I got nothing from them.

Hello,
I am a share holder in:
American Scientific Resources, Inc. (ASFX) Could you please provide me with the A/S O/S and restricted if any, connected to the share structure?
I appreciate it,
P.S. Are you clearing trades for this security? In this filing ASFX says:
Item 1.03. Bankruptcy or Receivership.
On February 27, 2012, an involuntary Petition under Chapter 7 of the United States Bankruptcy Code was filed against the Company in the United States Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of Florida. No order for relief has been entered by the Bankruptcy Court nor has a trustee in bankruptcy been appointed by the U.S. Trustee. The Company does not intend to seek dismissal of this Petition.
As a result of this Chapter 7 proceeding, the Company will no longer file periodic reports under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and thus (i) its Common Stock will no longer be traded on the Over the Counter Bulletin Board, and (ii) its shares will no longer be eligible for legend removal under Rule 144 for failure to continue to meet the current reporting requirement under Rule 144.

SEC Charges Investment Adviser and CEO With Misleading Retail Investors.
Washington D.C., July 18, 2018 —
The Securities and Exchange Commission today charged a Connecticut-based investment advisory firm and its chief executive officer with putting $19 million of investor money, including elderly investors’ retirement savings and pension plans, in risky investments and secretly pocketing hefty commissions from those investments.
The SEC’s complaint alleges that Temenos Advisory Inc. and George L. Taylor steered advisory clients and other investors, including senior citizens and individuals approaching retirement, into four risky, illiquid private offerings. While Temenos and Taylor charged advisory fees for unbiased financial advice, they allegedly concealed from their clients the high commissions they were pocketing from these risky and unsuitable investment recommendations, including cash and ownership stakes in the private companies they recommended, and fraudulently misled clients about the risks and prospects of the investments. The SEC also alleges that Temenos and Taylor grossly overbilled some of their advisory clients.
“Investment advisers must put clients’ interests ahead of their own,” said Paul Levenson, Director of the SEC’s Boston Regional Office. “Temenos violated that duty by placing clients in risky private placements while downplaying the risk of those investments and concealing the financial conflicts that motivated the recommendations.”
The SEC’s complaint, filed in federal court in Connecticut, charges the defendants with violating the anti-fraud and registration provisions of the federal securities laws. The SEC is seeking disgorgement of ill-gotten gains plus interest, penalties, and permanent injunctions.
The case is being handled by Dawn Edick, Marc Jones, Rua Kelly, Patrick Noone, and Amy Gwiazda. The SEC examination that led to the investigation was conducted by Maria Viana, Kenneth Leung, and Mayeti Gametchu of the Boston office.

Your welcome junebug4, Mark was well respected around here. He left behind some mighty big shoes to fill. He wore a lot of different hats in his life just like everyone else has I'm sure. But deep down he was a thoughtful and caring person that just wanted to be a part of something that was much bigger than himself.
I remember a conversation we had about the moderation of this board and how Admin could remove posts ext... and basically supersede his authority as moderator of the board, and they can / could.
I remember what he said at the time...
THEY BETTER NOT!!!
To my knowledge they never did because they usually don't involve themselves in policing political boards. I just laughed out loud about it at the time because Mark felt he didn't need any supervision and took care of business if it needed taken care of...LOLOL.

Hi fuagf. This xlent weather post of yours is a great example of what I really appreciated about F6[Mark]
because his intentions and I'm sure yours as well, is too inform the I-Hub peeps as to what's going down. Be informed, take note. F6 did it in a way that was second to none. I tried, but he really put me to shame, the man was so talented and skilled at what he did, his posts were just remarkable. He had the hookup!
Glad 2 see you're going to keep him up in the board header. I know that he was a very opinionated person and probably pissed off a great many people, but that's what I liked about him, he really didn't hold anything back. If you were in an argument with F6, then you really had a tornado on your hands in a big way! LOLOL!!!

It's a start at least, they say that there is more plastic in the oceans then there is fish that swim in them...lol
Maybe we can host a "Fish Plastic" week where we conjure up all the drag netters that we can and a bazillion ocean barges and just drag net tons of plastic out of that huge floating mess somewhere out in the middle of the pacific.
That would be cool, I would ship out on one of those for a while for free.
Hi gamzo, john12 is steering you in the right direction. Both of those brokers are penny friendly. Sorry to hear that you are stuck in that situation. Just open a new account and you should be able to transfer over your shares.

Thxs 4 all the linked in posts F6 [Mark], this just being one of the many outstanding posts you've linked into over the years. I remember many of them being so large that it took some time just to load the post to view it with so many pics, LOL!
Take it easy my friend, and keep riding that tornado in the sky.
You were one of the great ones,

Thank you F6 [Mark] for all the valuable and informative posts you've made here over the years on this board. We all greatly appreciated them, and I'm proud to call you my friend.
Peace out my friend,

Thxs for keeping the board updated junebug4 on F6 [Mark]. I'm sorry to hear of his passing, he was a popular member here on I-hub and will be greatly missed. I and many others over the years appreciated Mark's very informative posts detailing a whole host of subject matters. He was a very talented man on many fronts. He will be remembered as one of the early members here on I-Hub that made it a great site to visit and one of it's finest contributors.
Peace out F6 Mark,

The Reznick law firm has one thing in common with the rest of the world, a good portion of it's clients are represented by international money. Just stating the obvious that their clients are top shelf, top flight material. The fact that ASFX has anything to do with them at all, especially here at the end of CH 7 BK just prior to emergence from it, is interesting to say the least. Some on the board are just asking a legitimate question as to why they are popping up now in regards to the closing of the CH 7 case file by the Judge. Fair question when they have had all the time in the world to do so? And for seven hundred bucks to what looks like a Multi-Billion Dollar International Law Firm? Things that make you go Hmmmmmm.....

Xlent point Streett! Billable hours! If the firm cannot charge for anything they do related to a case file, then it's locked up and adjudicated for all their concerned. The rest is just formalities and paperwork processing the sign off and request by the Trustee to the judge into the record to close the case file.
Good Observation!!!

After July 2,2018 looks like all the MM's funbank is going to get a little tighter around the belt. Basically retaining any fails to deliver on any ticker symbol is going to cost them if they are not cleared through the transfer agent and made good on in a legal way...ext...
So having a stock like ASFX that the MM's "Have Allegedly been Lollygagging" with for the last five years, is going to cost them a pretty penny when you factor in all the ticker symbols that they have "Allegedly" been doing this too...Allegedly? Millions.

SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION
(Release No. 34-83457; File No. SR-FICC-2018-004)
June 18, 2018
Self-Regulatory Organizations; Fixed Income Clearing Corporation; Order Approving Proposed Rule Change to Introduce a Floor to the Calculation of the Fails Charges and Make Other Changes
On May 8, 2018, Fixed Income Clearing Corporation (“FICC”) filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“Commission”) proposed rule change SR-FICC-2018-004, pursuant to Section 19(b)(1) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (“Act”)1 and Rule 19b-4 thereunder.2 The proposed rule change was published for comment in the Federal Register on May 17, 2018.3 The Commission did not receive any comment letters on the proposed rule change. For the reasons discussed below, the Commission approves the proposed rule change.
I. Description of the Proposed Rule Change
The proposed rule change would update FICC’s Government Securities Division (“GSD”) Rulebook (“GSD Rules”) and FICC’s Mortgage-Backed Securities Division (“MBSD”) Clearing Rules (“MBSD Rules”)4 to (i) introduce a floor of one percent to the calculation of the existing fails charge rules, (ii) clarify the target rate that may be used in the fails charge calculations under certain circumstances, and (iii) make certain technical

2 17 CFR 240.19b-4.
3 See Securities Exchange Act Release No. 83222 (May 11, 2018), 83 FR 23032 (May 17, 2018) (SR-FICC-2018-004) (“Notice”).
4 The GSD Rules and the MBSD Rules are available at http://www.dtcc.com/legal/rules-and-procedures
changes to the fails charge provisions to ensure consistent use of defined terms.
5
The proposed rule change would also update the MBSD Rules to clarify that a cap applies to the MBSD fails charge.
6
Each of these proposed changes are described below.
A. Proposed One Percent Floor
In a securities transaction, a settlement fail occurs when the seller does not deliver the securities to the buyer on the agreed upon settlement date. FICC states that although settlement fails are generally not treated as contractual default events, provided that the failing seller delivers the securities soon after the settlement date, persistent elevated levels of settlement fails create market inefficiencies and increase credit risk for market participants.
7
To help mitigate settlement fails, FICC maintains a fails charge in both the GSD Rules and the MBSD Rules.
8
However, FICC states that under the current GSD Rules and MBSD Rules, the respective fails charge calculations could result in a zero charge.
9
Specifically, under the GSD version of the current fails charge, if the federal funds target rate would rise to three percent, then the calculation of the charge would result in a zero charge.
10
Similarly, under the MBSD version of the current fails charge, if the federal funds target rate would rise to two percent, then the calculation of the charge would result in a zero charge.
11
To address this issue, FICC proposes to amend the GSD Rules and the MBSD Rules to add a one percent floor to the respective GSD and MBSD fails charge calculations.
12
FICC’s proposal comes in response to a recent announcement by the Treasury Market Practices Group (“TMPG”),
13
in which the TMPG proposed the same change to its recommended best practices to help ensure that there is always a minimum fails charge amount.
14
The TMPG states that its recommendation of a one percent floor is driven by the concern that market participants would discontinue their fails charge operational processes in a prolonged zero charge scenario.
15
Adding the one percent floor would help maintain a fails charge during elevated federal funds target rate levels, and thereby help ensure that market participants do not discontinue their fails charge operational processes.
16
FICC states that as one of the largest participants in U.S. Government securities market, it is imperative that FICC implement the TMPG’s recommendation to help maintain consistency and symmetry within the market.

8 GSD Rule 11; MBSD Rule 12, supra note 4.
9 Id.; Notice, 83 FR at 23034.
E. Implementation Timeframe
FICC proposes to implement the proposed changes on July 2, 2018
.33 FICC states that it would announce such implementation date by Important Notice.34
FICC’s proposal to implement a one percent floor to the fails charge calculations would advance FICC’s efforts to "Discourage settlement fails by ensuring that the fails charge calculation would not produce a zero charge, particularly during periods of elevated target levels for the federal funds rate. In turn, ensuring that the respective GSD and MBSD fails charge calculations do not produce a zero charge would encourage market participants to maintain their fails charge operational processes. Accordingly, the Commission finds that the proposed rule change is designed to help ensure that settlement in the applicable markets covered by FICC’s processes occurs on a timely basis, and thereby promotes the prompt and accurate clearance and settlement of securities transactions", consistent with Section 17A(b)(3)(F) of the Act
