***First revenues will enable HFBG to expand their product lines with many, many more flavors of different products! This is only the begining!
Hopefully, eventually HFBG can make deals with other famous athletes to endorse each product line, hence the name; "Hall of Fame Beverages"!
IMO, this business direction would make HFBG bigger than Snapple, because sports are all year around! Trendy sports related products can go HUGE when they catch on, especially sports beverages, because people like to identify with the sports love! Plus, they have to drink something while they watch!
Your right, this may take some time for the PPS to really move up. We should be buying and holding at this point! But i think launching their product and advertising campaign before the holiday season will help this trend catch on faster!
I also think people are tired of the same old drinks, with the same old ads. IMO, it's time for something NEW! It's time for "Hall of Fame Beverages"!!!!
P.S. your timming on your buys were perfect, i have alot of respect for your invesment insight!
GLTU, h2h
GO HFBG!!!!!!
I'm with you too, carausius! I get where your comming from as long as AMHD's share structure stays intact AND enough positive interest is attracted to it, i.e. PRs, positive posts and hot stock alerts then AMHD will run!
Check out this alert that helped fuel the last run;
http://pennystockgurus.blogspot.com/2009/12/amhd-little-more-for-you-to-chew-on.html
check out point# 6 where it says; " Penny stock investors know which stocks can and can not run. AMHD is a stock that has run in the past and is well over due for a run now."
BTW if you read all of WestTexas' past posts you'll realize who your dealing with, he's one of the AMHD's x-moderators! Here's one of his past posts that seems to agree with you;

Eric, I'm pro AMHD (for now) but keep in mind shareholders don't know where investor money has gone (or is going) and shareholders also don't have any financial information from the company (AMHD has yet to disclose).
Bottom line: AMHD is a speculative play, but we have seen some SERIOUS sp swings in the past. Get in on the right one and you can make some major cash.
Your moderator!
(That "bottom line" tells you alot about why most of these posters post here everyday.)
(Look at this one about the lawsuit);

For those who have been asking me about the lawsuit (Amelot Holdings v Fitzsimmons): If it can be shown that Todd Fitz engaged in a pattern of fraud in dealing with Amelot (i.e., the "contract") then Fitzsimmons cannot discharge debts owed to AMHD in his bankruptcy filing.
What does this mean? Bottom line: AMHD may be able to recover all or part of the $300K Fitzsimmons owes the company!
(Interesting reading. very interesting!)

GO HFBG!GO GRANDMAMA ON ESPN!!!Gonna explode IS RIGHT!!!
Hope my funds clear in time before HFBG breaks out of the trips! I wanna add more when i can!
What a day, huh! Borce, Surf Kid, Stockchick and many more like them to come, who mistakenly think that someone can cause a PPS dip or even spoil a run once the MOMO has begun, with just their "opinion"???
Why don't they realize the best way to make money in sub-pennyland is to slap the ask, support your stock, make a graceful exit, (when they feel the time is right) and MOVE ON!!!
GLTU, GLTA, have a nice weekend and let's hope HFBG has a great week next week! I truly believe all of September will be setting HFBG up for a HUGE RUN!!!
-h2h
THIS*IS*THE*DAY*TO*BUY!I'VE GOT MINE AT THE ASK NOW!!!
Time to put our money where our mouth is,(or keyboard)!!!
Got one word for ya, people. BUY BUY BUY!!!
GO HFBG!!!
The next PR might rocket HFBG to new highs, but then again the BUZZ about the stock BEFORE the news might just entice buyers to buy in and push this up to new highs just on the speculation alone!!! Or maybe both (the BUZZ then the PR) can bring us to pennyland!!! Today's trading got alot of peoples attention, # of posts are way up, # of reads are way up and HFBG made it back on the buzz cloud today! IMO, another green close and the buzz will continue all weekend, then by Monday we really could have a rocket stock on our hands!
There's too many positive variables going on with this company and any one of them could be the trigger PR that launches this little gem skyward! But personaly i hope they hold off on the next PR untill the excitement and speculation of what could come grows to a feverpitch!
Just imagine the crazy ads Larry Johnson could make as GRANDMAMA!!!
Holding LONG & STRONG, h2h!
GOOOOOOO HFBG!
WORD IS GETTING OUT!!!Many people buying in now, HFBG made the "Top 15 Most Active List" today with over 200 posts, as of now! # 12 on the "Most Read List" with 57,185 reads so far!
People doing their DD and buying up the cheapies, getting ready for the next PR, then we're really gonna get noticed! Betcha we get to #1 on the Most Active List real soon!
Looks like the MOMO's mixin' up real good! Enough to push this up real high!
GOOOOOOOOO HFBG!!!!!!!!!!!!

ZIPZ*HUGE NEWS*Zippi Receives Apple Approval for iPhone&iPad!
TODAY'S NEWS;
http://www.otcmarkets.com/stock/ZIPZ/news
DD POST by: MStrike1978
Zippi is an existing company that has restructured itself into the Mobile Applications industry. They will be making recurring revenues based on mobile applications sales, in-app purchases, and in-app advertising. As new applications are developed, older applications provide recurring revenues.
The company has confirmed to myself and others via e-mail that a reverse split IS NOT planned, meaning these prices are rock bottom after other investors have already taken heavy losses.
The flagship application, ZIPPI SWAP, is expected to be completed NEXT MONTH (mid-September).
We have two applications that have ALREADY been submitted to Apple (BP Blaster and Millionaire Brain), and we are just waiting for the approvals to come through.
Zippi is in the process of negotiating with advertisers in order to start bringing in revenues once the applications are approved, which should be any day now.
We should expect to see a reversal soon and anyone buying at the price of .0002 is buying in at the ground floor.
According to Juniper Research, the mobile applications market is set to reach 25 BILLION DOLLARS by 2014. Yes, that is correct, 25 BILLION DOLLARS.
http://www.atelier-us.com/e-business-and-it/article/juniper-mobile-application-market-worth-25b-in-2014
Steve Jobs at his Keynote speech announcing the iPhone 4 indicated that Apple has sent over 1 BILLION DOLLARS to developers who have developed mobile applications for the iPhone.
http://www.usatoday.com/communities/technologylive/post/2010/06/apple-expected-to-unveil-latest-edition-of-iphone/1
Mobile Applications are becoming the NEW .COM boom of the late 90s when every new and existing business needed a website in order to compete in the marketplace.
"Zippi Networks, Inc. (Pink Sheets:ZIPZ - News), an Applications company focused on delivering entertainment, gaming, and social networking Apps for today's mobile lifestyle, today announced that the company has retained Mr. David Kahn for the specific function of reviewing Zippi's updated information statement.

Zippi Receives Apple Approval on Millionaire Brain Application, Now Available for Both iPhone and iPad Users on iTunes
Today : Tuesday 24 August 2010
Zippi Networks, Inc. (Pink Sheets:ZIPZ), an Applications company focused on delivering entertainment, gaming, and social networking Apps for today's mobile lifestyle, today announced approval of its mobile trivia game application "Millionaire Brain". The game was designed and submitted to Apple on July 20, 2010, following the original submission of the application Zippi upgraded the app and re-submitted a version of the app for iPad users. Both versions are available for download at www.itunes.com .
As paid downloads of the application have begun, the company is looking at mobile advertising partners as an additional way of monetizing the application. Zippi is targeting several new releases for the remainder of 2010, and will test several methods of monetization within each application. The company intends to stick with paid downloads, free downloads, advertising, no advertising, and in application purchases that are tied to upgrade paths or additional currency for particular use within an app.
Robert A. Rositano Jr., CEO of Zippi Networks, Inc., stated, "It has been long awaited to achieve Apple's approval on at least one of our application submissions; we are very excited that 'Millionaire Brain' is now available. The approval of this application marks not only a milestone achievement for us as a company, it provides additional details, and a roadmap of sorts, allowing Zippi to streamline submissions and approval times for the future. We have announced other applications in the past as well, and we want to assure our shareholders that development has continued on 'Zippi Swap' and others. Some applications have various levels of complexity and have taken a bit more time and revision as we near completion. We are targeting a completion of 'Zippi Swap' by mid-September, and expect other app completions within this time period as well."

Hall of Fame Beverages CEO Announces the Return of Grand Ma Ma
Aug 18, 2010 8:45:00 AM
LOS ANGELES, CA -- (MARKET WIRE) -- 08/18/10 -- Hall of Fame Beverages, Inc. (PINKSHEETS: HFBG) CEO Steve Hendricks announces that the company's first production run of its brand Grand Ma Ma's Sweet Southern Tea is complete. Hendricks says, "Last week we all met in Florida to finish the production run, and as a team, we're excited about what's in the bottle. The tea tastes fantastic and is right on balance. The staff at Tampa CoPack was very accommodating and made our first run a great success. There was so much energy with this team that we were ready to go to market right there."
Grand Ma Ma is a character played by former NBA player Larry Johnson in a Converse Shoes ad campaign. Larry Johnson and Grand Ma Ma are back and will be the face of Hall of Fame's sweet tea product.
Johnson was in Tampa, Florida, for the production of the tea and says he's enjoying recreating the character. "It's been a while since Grand Ma Ma has been out there, and it's great to see the character on the label. While in Tampa, I got to taste the tea coming off the line, and it really tastes great."
Hall of Fame Beverages project manager, Louis Restivo, who is responsible for distribution says the product is now being prepped for shipment. "We'll be sending the product to our warehouse, sending it out west for direct store delivery and sending it to Elmira Distributing Company.
"We're fortunate to be working with Toby Lagonegro at Elmira who will be distributing our products from the Canadian border to New York State."
Toby Lagonegro, the owner of Elmira Distributing Company in Elmira, New York, is a fifth generation owner of the company. Elmira Distributing has been in the business for over a hundred years and Lagonegro was the first to purchase the product for distribution. The company will be carrying the Grand Ma Ma's Sweet Southern Tea and Atomic Dogg Super Soda.
Lagonegro says, "I was down in Tampa for the production. The sweet tea has legs and will sell, and we're ecstatic about this relationship with Hall of Fame. We're hoping this takes off like our efforts did when we helped to launch Fuze among other drinks." Elmira Distributing Company currently works with 53 different supermarkets and convenience stores, including, BJ's Wholesale, Sam's Club, 7-Eleven and several school districts.
Restivo said, "As we get the product out to Massachusetts, Connecticut, New York, New Jersey, Delaware, Pennsylvania, Virginia, West Virginia, Texas, California, Arizona, Nevada and elsewhere we'll be using the network I spent years setting up as well as a DSD, or a direct store delivery process, to get product in locations out west. In the coming weeks we'll also be announcing the hotels, airlines and cruise lines who will be taking our products."
Hall of Fame Beverages national sales manager, James Robinson, will be putting Grand Ma Ma's Sweet Southern Tea in 7-Eleven and K-Mart stores in California, Arizona and Nevada using the direct store delivery process. Robinson says, "The beverage season has now begun and we look forward to getting on the fast track with corporate accounts."
Steve Hendricks and company President, Calvin Ross, both credit the success of this production run to Susan and Scot Ballantyne and their staff at Tampa CoPack. Susan Ballantyne is the Director of Operations at the facility, and said, "Hall of Fame was a pleasure to work with, everyone liked the end result and we look forward to a long relationship with them."
Calvin Ross added, "I am thankful for everyone's patience with the company, and I hope shareholders are pleased with the management team and the product we've produced. It was great to have Larry Johnson with us in Tampa to see the tea roll off the line, as he's very involved with operations and marketing at Hall of Fame, and he has a hand in all our decisions."
Hall of Fame Beverages CEO Steve Hendricks stated, "We already have a second production run of Grand Ma Ma's Sweet Southern Tea paid for, and it will be online in a couple of weeks. Our brand Atomic Dogg Super Soda will be produced and ready for distribution in the next 10 days. When we talked about me becoming the CEO, I said if I can't help build a brand, then I don't want to do it. With what we have at Hall of Fame, I feel in my heart, we can build a brand that my kids can drink and a brand that will be here into the next generation."

Thoughts! Ideas! DD! Please Read!
To answer an earlier question, distributors are buying the product and distributing it on their own. It is this money that is allowing the company to pay for and get the 2nd run online. These distributors are placing the product and demanding more to stay fully stocked!!!
1. I am glad that some are calling Toby Lagonegro as I suggested given he's an independent 3rd party who was in Tampa during production according to the latest PR.
- He will verify that he's seen the product.
- He will verify that he's bought the product.
- He will verify that he will be distributing the product.
- I would suggest anyone living near Elmira go visit Toby and get samples or ask him if you can buy it up. Show him it's popular so he keeps buying it up. It is my understanding that next week is the start of Elmira putting product on shelves.
If you get these answers alone, that confirms everything that company has been PR'g. Why someone saying it isn't real, it isn't being distributed and it won't be on shelves wouldn't want to confirm what they are shouting is beyond me. If you are saying it's not real, being distributed or won't be on shelves make the call... and then move along because you are wrong.
2. When a PR headline hits the wires that says HFBG is on shelves at Sams Club or BJs Wholesale or K-Mart or 7-Eleven, etc.. And/or when, a headline that reads a major hotel chain or two, and a major airline, and a major cruise line has signed on to buy the product and serve it.... everyone who sold below .001 will feel like the biggest fool.
- Flippers and MMs will continue to do their thing, but everyone else has the chance to buy it up, hold on to it strong and refuse to give up what IMO is about to be one big move in Pink Sheet land. I had a ton of shares in MGL* that I loaded up at .0001 and their OS was 4 times higher than here at HFBG. It went from .0001 to .0033 on NOTHING but speculation. HFBG has SOMETHING REAL THAT IS ABOUT TO REALLY BE EVERYWHERE.
3. The OS is in the 3.3B range which for a PINK SHEET is like a low floater lol. Go pull the numbers and do the math... I will buy those screaming it's maxed out a dinner if this OS is over 3.5B. I am confident it's below 3.4B but I will allow for my missing some lines on the reports for all of 2010. Trust me it's not over 3.5B and most likely not even over 3.4B. I think when the Financials come out, when the OS is clearly below 3.5B, that should be a huge buying signal and should be huge news given we've had so many guaranteeing it's maxed out at 4.7B. It will become very clear the dilution isn't nearly as much as some think... and at that point they will have to admit they were wrong and that MMs are toying with this stock and that there are a bunch of flippers here.
- I would say that anyone who is selling at .0004 and .0005 currently is a flipper. What some are doing is trying to get in lower so they are selling small orders of what they hold at even or a loss in order to try to drive the price down allowing them to get more .0004s or even .0003s. We should all be offended by this and take charge of our investment if we're long. We should be hitting the ASK all day long to show constant buying. Even if you can only buy 10k, 50k, 500k or 10M it doesn't matter... just buy! When it sits for any amount of time, MMs take advantage of that and flippers do as well.
4. Everyone who comes to this board knows what is going on at HFBG, so we need to make the rest of the market aware of what is about to explode onto the wires and scene here at HFBG, and all of us need to make this a symbol everyone at least types into their streamer, and a symbol they are watching out for on Equity Feed. When this news hits the wires, everyone needs to be aware... ohhhh this is that company I heard people talking about. Hit your Twitter accounts, hit your Facebook accounts, go find other message boards, go hit up other momo board here on IHUB. Don't spam it here, but make the mention and get the word out. Many are accumulating here for what IMO is about to be a monster run, but we need new money, new investors and new word of mouth!!!
5.I have heard a lot of people talking about TV ads, and this is something I have been digging deep on with many sources I have. The short answer is some big money has been paid to put together what I am to understand is an ad campaign unheard of in PINK SHEET land. Let's just say Grand Ma Ma is about to be alive and well!! I have a source at ESPN who knows of stuff going on and he says he knows what Larry Johnson is up to b/c they will be running some things. Everything is hush hush as to what but some stuff PINK SHEET companies only dream of is about to go down here and go down soon.
6. Buy this stock up and hold on to it. You won't be sorry and it is my STRONG opinion that we are holding shares of what is about to be the monster of 2010. This company is about to do things that no one ever dreamed of or thought possible. This company has had some ups and downs... and just enough downs to keep everyone with that question in the back of their minds, but it's time to wake up and realize they just may have finally put it all together, and put together such a strong team of go-getters that have done it all before and they have the skins on the wall so to speak.
- This management team deserves some credit. If you don't like Calvin Ross, fair enough... but I think Larry Johnson has finally said... we are doing this the right way and we're doing it now, so surround yourself with real DOers in this business. I have talked to Steve Hendricks and he's incredible to talk to. He exudes energy and it is more than clear he wants this to be the biggest thing he's EVER done in his life... and that is saying something considering he's brought in revenues upwards of $80 million dollars to companies in the past. I have talked to Louis Restivo about 10 times. He works harder in one day than anyone here does in a week and the guy is like 70. He is going almost 24-hours a day to make this work. I have also talked to James Robinson and he truly believes this team will make this HUGE and far bigger than a company he built into a $20 million dollar a year revenue generator. This team is INCREDIBLE and they are working their butts off to bring this company value!!
These are just a few thoughts, and I could go on for hours based on close to a hundred phone calls I have made to networks, production studios, distributors, production facilities, supermarket chains, convenient store chains, and the big box stores. Sell if you want by all means, but if you had one iota of the information that is out there, you would buy and hold on tight. This will be one of those stories you can tell other investors... OMG I was in on that one from the floor up!!!
Products about to hit the shelves any time now, they're getting it shipped and ready as we speak! Don't wait too long to get in, this one's about to run! Word is getting out and when some of the big money players get in on this, it'll be heading upwards really fast!!!
Check out the DD in the stickies!!!

Pictures of HFBG's First Products in Stores(Grand Ma Ma's Sweet Southern Tea and Atomic Dogg Super Soda) at supermarkets and convenience stores, including, BJ's Wholesale, Sam's Club, 7-Eleven will be the catalyst that will launch the next PPS run!!!
Once we post pictures of the products on the shelves there will be no denying this is for real, but this is only the begining! When the products are distributed to more and more stores, ads are on TV and sales projections are PRed, HFBG will go to multiple pennies for sure and could even go higher!!!
Hall of Fame Beverages CEO Steve Hendricks stated, "We already have a second production run of Grand Ma Ma's Sweet Southern Tea paid for, and it will be online in a couple of weeks. Our brand Atomic Dogg Super Soda will be produced and ready for distribution in the next 10 days.(From PR date 08/18/2010)
WE ARE ON OUR WAY!!! LET THE RUN BEGIN!
GLTA, h2h
If unbelievers saw HFBG's products on the shelves, PRs of contracts with well known stores, television ads and the PPS soaring up, would that convince them this was a good investment?
It is entirely possible that HFBG's products could become very popular and make huge profits! There once was another x-basketball player who invested in a small company before they became a household name! Ever heard of "Starbucks"!!!

***PMDP/RIGHT PROJECT at the RIGHT TIME!LOOK,Carbon Black will be needed for the $1.5 billion in new grants to U.S. based manufacturers to produce batteries and their components!
7/08/2010 PR; The Converter will recover carbon black, oil, gas and petroleum solvents from tires. The market for carbon black includes the manufacturing of batteries and other products, making it an even more important commodity than the company had originally thought. (Demand for carbon black is about to increase substantially!)

President Obama Announces $2.4 Billion in Grants to Accelerate the Manufacturing and Deployment of the Next Generation of U.S. Batteries and Electric Vehicles.
Recovery Act will fund 48 new advanced battery and electric drive components manufacturing and electric drive vehicle deployment projects in over 20 states.
Elkhart, Indiana – Further accelerating the manufacturing and deployment of electric vehicles, batteries, and components here in America, and creating tens of thousands of new jobs, President Obama today announced 48 new advanced battery and electric drive projects that will receive $2.4 billion in funding under the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act. These projects, selected through a highly competitive process by the Department of Energy, will accelerate the development of U.S. manufacturing capacity for batteries and electric drive components as well as the deployment of electric drive vehicles, helping to establish American leadership in creating the next generation of advanced vehicles.
"If we want to reduce our dependence on oil, put Americans back to work and reassert our manufacturing sector as one of the greatest in the world, we must produce the advanced, efficient vehicles of the future," said President Obama.
"For our nation and our economy to recover, we must have a vision for what can be built here in the future – and then we need to invest in that vision," said Vice President Biden. "That’s what we’re doing today and that’s what this Recovery Act is about."
The announcement marks the single largest investment in advanced battery technology for hybrid and electric-drive vehicles ever made. Industry officials expect that this $2.4 billion investment, coupled with another $2.4 billion in cost share from the award winners, will result directly in the creation tens of thousands of manufacturing jobs in the U.S. battery and auto industries.
The new awards cover the following areas:
$1.5 billion in grants to U.S. based manufacturers to produce batteries and their components and to expand battery recycling capacity;
$500 million in grants to U.S. based manufacturers to produce electric drive components for vehicles, including electric motors, power electronics, and other drive train components; and
$400 million in grants to purchase thousands of plug-in hybrid and all-electric vehicles for test demonstrations in several dozen locations; to deploy them and evaluate their performance; to install electric charging infrastructure; and to provide education and workforce training to support the transition to advanced electric transportation systems.
Today, President Obama visited Navistar International Corporation, in Elkhart, Ind., to make the announcement. Navistar will receive a $39 million grant to manufacture electric trucks which the company reports will ultimately will create or save hundreds of jobs when full scale manufacturing at the site commences. Overall, seven projects in Indiana will receive grants totaling more than $400 million. The applications from the companies and from one university engaged in this technology research anticipate that these awards will create or save thousands of jobs.
Vice President Joe Biden and four Members of the Cabinet, also fanned out across the country to discuss the historic announcement.
Vice President Biden was in Detroit to announce over $1 billion in grants to companies and universities based in Michigan. Reflecting the state’s leadership in clean energy manufacturing, Michigan companies and institutions are receiving the largest share of grant funding of any state. Two companies, A123 and Johnson Controls, will receive a total of approximately $550 million to establish a manufacturing base in the state for advanced batteries, and two others, Compact Power and Dow Kokam, will receive a total of over $300 million for manufacturing battery cells and materials. Large automakers based in Michigan, including GM, Chrysler, and Ford, will receive a total of more than $400 million to manufacture thousands of advanced hybrid and electric vehicles as well as batteries and electric drive components. And three educational institutions in Michigan, the University of Michigan, Wayne State University in Detroit, and Michigan Technological University in Houghton in the Upper Peninsula, will receive a total of more than $10 million for education and workforce training programs to train researchers, technicians and service providers, and to conduct consumer research to accelerate the transition towards advanced vehicles and batteries.
Energy Secretary Steven Chu, whose Department selected the 48 award winners, visited Celgard, in Charlotte, NC, to announce a $49 million grant for the company to expand its separator production capacity to serve the expected increased demand for lithium-ion batteries from manufacturing facilities in the U.S. Celgard will be expanding its manufacturing capacity in Charlotte, NC and nearby Aiken, SC, and the company expects the new separator production to come online in 2010. Celgard expects that approximately hundreds of jobs could be created, with the first of those jobs beginning as early as Fall 2009.
EPA Administrator Lisa Jackson was in St. Petersburg, FL, to announce a $95.5 million grant for Saft America, Inc. to construct a new plant in Jacksonville on the site of the former Cecil Field military base, to manufacture lithium-ion cells, modules and battery packs for military, industrial, and agricultural vehicles.
Deputy Secretary of the Department of Transportation John Porcari visited East Penn Manufacturing Co., in Lyon Station, Penn., to award the company a $32.5 million grant to increase production capacity for their valve regulated lead-acid batteries and the UltraBattery, a lead-acid battery combined with a carbon supercapacitor, for micro and mild hybrid applications. East Penn Manufacturing is a third-generation family business with over 63 years in battery manufacturing.
PMDP/RIGHT PROJECT at the RIGHT TIME!LOOK,all we need is a PR that connects the two(The Carbon Black and the $1.5 billion in new grants to U.S. based manufacturers to produce batteries and their components)!
7/08/2010 PR; The Converter will recover carbon black, oil, gas and petroleum solvents from tires. The market for carbon black includes the manufacturing of batteries and other products, making it an even more important commodity than the company had originally thought. (Demand for carbon black is about to increase substantially!)

President Obama Announces $2.4 Billion in Grants to Accelerate the Manufacturing and Deployment of the Next Generation of U.S. Batteries and Electric Vehicles.
Recovery Act will fund 48 new advanced battery and electric drive components manufacturing and electric drive vehicle deployment projects in over 20 states.
Elkhart, Indiana – Further accelerating the manufacturing and deployment of electric vehicles, batteries, and components here in America, and creating tens of thousands of new jobs, President Obama today announced 48 new advanced battery and electric drive projects that will receive $2.4 billion in funding under the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act. These projects, selected through a highly competitive process by the Department of Energy, will accelerate the development of U.S. manufacturing capacity for batteries and electric drive components as well as the deployment of electric drive vehicles, helping to establish American leadership in creating the next generation of advanced vehicles.
"If we want to reduce our dependence on oil, put Americans back to work and reassert our manufacturing sector as one of the greatest in the world, we must produce the advanced, efficient vehicles of the future," said President Obama.
"For our nation and our economy to recover, we must have a vision for what can be built here in the future – and then we need to invest in that vision," said Vice President Biden. "That’s what we’re doing today and that’s what this Recovery Act is about."
The announcement marks the single largest investment in advanced battery technology for hybrid and electric-drive vehicles ever made. Industry officials expect that this $2.4 billion investment, coupled with another $2.4 billion in cost share from the award winners, will result directly in the creation tens of thousands of manufacturing jobs in the U.S. battery and auto industries.
The new awards cover the following areas:
$1.5 billion in grants to U.S. based manufacturers to produce batteries and their components and to expand battery recycling capacity;
$500 million in grants to U.S. based manufacturers to produce electric drive components for vehicles, including electric motors, power electronics, and other drive train components; and
$400 million in grants to purchase thousands of plug-in hybrid and all-electric vehicles for test demonstrations in several dozen locations; to deploy them and evaluate their performance; to install electric charging infrastructure; and to provide education and workforce training to support the transition to advanced electric transportation systems.
Today, President Obama visited Navistar International Corporation, in Elkhart, Ind., to make the announcement. Navistar will receive a $39 million grant to manufacture electric trucks which the company reports will ultimately will create or save hundreds of jobs when full scale manufacturing at the site commences. Overall, seven projects in Indiana will receive grants totaling more than $400 million. The applications from the companies and from one university engaged in this technology research anticipate that these awards will create or save thousands of jobs.
Vice President Joe Biden and four Members of the Cabinet, also fanned out across the country to discuss the historic announcement.
Vice President Biden was in Detroit to announce over $1 billion in grants to companies and universities based in Michigan. Reflecting the state’s leadership in clean energy manufacturing, Michigan companies and institutions are receiving the largest share of grant funding of any state. Two companies, A123 and Johnson Controls, will receive a total of approximately $550 million to establish a manufacturing base in the state for advanced batteries, and two others, Compact Power and Dow Kokam, will receive a total of over $300 million for manufacturing battery cells and materials. Large automakers based in Michigan, including GM, Chrysler, and Ford, will receive a total of more than $400 million to manufacture thousands of advanced hybrid and electric vehicles as well as batteries and electric drive components. And three educational institutions in Michigan, the University of Michigan, Wayne State University in Detroit, and Michigan Technological University in Houghton in the Upper Peninsula, will receive a total of more than $10 million for education and workforce training programs to train researchers, technicians and service providers, and to conduct consumer research to accelerate the transition towards advanced vehicles and batteries.

Yep, we are overdue for a PR! PMDP held an average PPS level of .0005 - .0007 for a long time, seeing a bargain entry point of .0002 - .0003 when a huge PR hits the wire, will most likely shoot PMDP up to at least .001 or more!
Let's hope this next PR packs a real punch to knock the PPS out of the trips!!!!!
GLTA, h2h
When the PPS is climbing up, the CEO is the shareholder's hero! But when the PPS hits bottom the CEO is made out to be some kind of criminal!
I'm looking forward to the days when the PPS is climbing up, then check the board and see how the sentiment changes!
It's easy to criticize and complain, but not so easy to get the job done well!
IMO, things will change soon and SYNJ shareholders will benefit! We shall see, when the right PR hits the wire and the momo attracts buyers sending the PPS up .001+ .002+ .003+ etc.
Anything is possible is right! It's possible that SYNJ will have the funding to achive their goals and if things work out well they can afford to buy back enough of their shares to lower the A/S!
IMO, they've most likely already got things rolling along and that's why they don't need Mac anymore. I also think they've got some great PR's comming up soon!
*In the world of pinky stocks, a change of business plans is par for the course when the current plan is outdated or just isn't working!
I for one have a strong belief that SYNJ's PPS will move up when BS starts another PR blitz! If the business plan in the next set of PRs catches on and attracts enough new investors SYNJ can move up enough to make us a good profit!
Mack is a great asset to SYNJ's biodiesel plans, but whatever plans they come up with, i hope the market LOVES IT!!!
For me, selling at the bottom is not a good strategy! I also think now is the time to hold and see what new ideas they have to raise the PPS! Which i believe WILL happen because if they dilute at or below .0001 they will loose their ass. So attracting new money with a new set of PRs is the way to go. Once the PRs are rolling out, the stock promoter websites will pump this up real good!
So, LET'S GO B.S.!!! LET'S GO SYNJ!!!!
All IMO GLTA, h2h
If there's one thing investors love, it's the opportunity to make alot of money! For the PPS to really move up PMDP has to offer that opportunity to "new" investors in a huge way! They're trying hard but they're going to have to step it up!
"Show me the money" is the motto of the market, so whatever money making idea they're going to push, it's got to have promise of HUGE profits along with it!
They have several ways of making that happen, let's hope they are successful!
Success = 10% insperation + 90% perseration!
Although successful investing = 50% timing + 50% luck!
Luck is when preparation meets opportunity!!!
One of these days, i'll be in the right stock at the right time!

The dreaded reverse split :(
I know there has been chatter about my announcement that I will be reversing the stock by 50 to 1. Don't let the "shorters" poison your mind into becoming bearish now. We have come too far.
Believe me, I understand everyone's disappointment about the reverse, but at the current level of outstanding, we would have to be making a trillion dollars a year to maintain a decent marketcap. I was very resistant at first, but experts in the market convinced me that we really have no choice. I knew we would have to do it, but maybe not for two years.
Post #1767 Posted by: SARAGO
IMO,People will be buying this up BIGTIME tomorrow, when the Penny Stock Guru clears this up on his blog tonight!
"MDIN is doing RS, not IFHR"
Whoever wrote that blog sure caused ALOT of trouble for many shareholders! This isn't over yet!
That BOGUS*Blog was dated(July,8)!!!It should'nt have had any effect on today's trading!
IMO, it will close above .0012 today, see a high over .002 tomorrow and see .002 to .003 range by EOW!!!
WHERE IS THE PROOF!JUST A BOGUS BLOG! Give me a break!!!
.002-.003 by EOW!!!Bogus Blog!
I still think this will see .002 to .003 range when we find out there's not going to be a R/S!
Read my lips...NO REVERSE SPLIT!
Hey Brian, do what it takes to get TD Ameritrade to lift the buy side restriction! Then let's see those exciting PRs and don't dump anymore shares before the PPS reaches over .005! If you want to raise funds, let's get the PPS up first!!!!
Let the MOMO work it's magic so we can all get paid!
Hey, it can happen!!!
GLTA, h2h
Thank you, thank you very much! Ya know, i think i'd be great in politics or maybe i'll settle for being a CEO for a POS pinksheet company. Wadduya think, huh?
h2h :)
If you've ever gotten a substancial size loan before, you'd know that it's NOT a "done deal" untill it closes! And that it usually takes months to close a huge loan! And that the lender OR the borrower can dispute the terms of the loan at any time before closing!
In the January PR it says "the Company will continue to pursue multiple sources of financing", The $5 million loan PRed in January was to be funded by HSBC Bank, London and it seems that they did not go through with it. We don't know what happened, the details were not mentioned.
The Madrid finance group is a different source for funding their projects and he had this to say about them; "The Madrid finance group is already considering finance packages for additional projects in our Energy City agenda, specifically the Palmetto Gas Pipe Line. They are reasonable in cost, faster and more predictable then the government, extremely well capitalized and motivated to grab - with us - a piece of South Carolina and the renewable energy revolution. I can't ask for a better partner."
Closing on multi-million dollar loans has to be done carefully and be beneficial to both parties! (Borrower and lender.) But the opportunity now exist to take advantage of other financing options.
These projects must be very appealing to get the attention of several financial groups, it very well could be that SYNJ got a better offer from another bank! But at this time we are still waiting to find out what will happen.
This is the last post i am allowed to post today, so have a nice evening! :)
GLTY, h2h
If the terms of the HSBC London Bank loan were too difficult for SYNJ to deal with than it's better they get their funding from a different source! That loan wasn't the only one they applied for, they were also in talks with the Madrid finance group!
Some people focus on what is lost, when we should be focused on better opportunities!
These projects are going to be HUGE!!!
Look at PR issued on January 25, 2010;(down where Brian comments)
Syndication Inc.: BOD Accepts $6.5 Mill International; Company's S. Carolina 'Energy City' Projects Attract International Investment
Jan. 25, 2010 (PR Newswire) --
DAMASCUS, Md. -- Syndication Inc., (Other OTC: SYNJ.PK), The Company announces that on January 18th, 2010 McCutcheon Marshall Jr., President and Chairman of the Board for Sentinel Renewable Energy S.C. Inc. and Pinnacle Energy Inc., the wholly owned energy subsidiary of Syndication Inc., agreed to the terms and executed a loan commitment for a $5 million dollar, 10 year loan, bearing interest at a rate of 4% annually. The Company's cash match requirement is $1.5 million bringing the total asset commitment for the Kingstree South Carolina Bio-diesel Manufacturing facility project to $6.5 million dollars.
When the President, Mac Marshall Jr., was asked to comment on the financing he stated, "I don't have the luxury of relaxing. I want to move forward with the execution of SRE S.C.'s business plan. My first action is to settle on the 75,000 sq. ft' Kingstree warehouse and the Methes Canada purchase of the 2 Denami 600's. I know every one is excited about our financing but, you should understand, in my opinion, I have assembled a world class team and charged them the simple task of not creating an 'Energy Revolution' but, grabbing as much of it as they can over the next 10 years. This is a great venture and one that I feel privileged to be a part of. The State of South Carolina is the frontier of the 'Renewable Energy Revolution' and I can't wait to look at us in the year 2020," said Mac Marshall Jr. President and Chairman of the Board of Sentinel Renewable Energies S.C.
When the CFO, Peter Katzburg, was asked to comment on the financing he stated, "I've built and financed many companies over the last 35 years, both small and Fortune 500. In this Company, I see the same fundamentals that were prevalent in my past successes. However, the difference in this project lay in the opportunity to build a Company which stands at the precipice of a global shift in our industrial energy environment. We are at the beginning of an Energy Revolution and all indices point to a global economic shift in energy consumption. In fact, it resembles the second industrial revolution of 1850. It gained momentum with the development of steam-powered ships and railways, and ultimately lead into the 19th century with the internal combustion engine and electrical power generation. This is where we are. No doubt, there are a number of frontiers in this 'Renewable Energy Revolution' but, the State of South Carolina is one of the big fronts," said Peter Katzburg, the CFO of Sentinel Renewable Energy, S.C.
When the CEO, Brian Sorrentino was asked to comment on the financing he stated, "As mentioned in earlier news releases, the Company will continue to pursue multiple sources of financing however, we are extremely excited about this particular arrangement. The Madrid finance group is already considering finance packages for additional projects in our Energy City agenda, specifically the Palmetto Gas Pipe Line. They are reasonable in cost, faster and more predictable then the government, extremely well capitalized and motivated to grab - with us - a piece of South Carolina and the renewable energy revolution. I can't ask for a better partner. In the Kingstree S.C. Bio-diesel manufacturing facility, we have staked our claim in the State of South Carolina and the frontier of global renewable energy. It's my strategy to dig in, plant our flag and hang on. In my opinion, with this crew and a couple of smart moves, over the next 10 years, the natural growth of the industry will carry us into a rich and profitable future," said Brian Sorrentino, the CEO of Syndication Inc. News Pending.
***9 MMs Stacked on the bid!!Looks like they're loading up for the next run! The "no bid" and "R/S" talk is all over the board now to scare the longs into selling to the NINE MMs on the bid!
People just don't get it, the biggest scam in pinksheet stocks is not the just companies themselves. It's the MMs and promoters that load up on good stocks when they're low by holding the PPS down while bashing to scare the stockholders and pressure the CEOs to dilute, so the MMs can load up @ .0001 weeks before good news comes. (Some shareholders are easily spooked when they don't know what's going on.) When great news comes promoters pump it while the MMs raise the bid and ask. When the PPS tops out the MMs make more money by shorting it all the way down to .0001 and do it all over again! This is where the real money is being made! The only way investors can make money in this environment is to buy very low and wait OR buy when great news hits the wire and hold for the short term!
That's why CEOs don't want to R/S their stock, it doesn't do any good, the MMs will just short it down anyway!
Synj has made it's way down to the bottom. Now 9 MMs are loading, you do the math! The mood was positive on this board after the last PR when we realized SYNJ's projects must be valuable enough to renegotiate Mac's contract. What has changed between then and now? Nothing, only bashers ready to buy cheap shares from impatient shareholders!
We've come full circle since before the last run and IMO, it's going to do it all over again with a new twist to attract new investors! (Gotta keep up with the times, ya know!) Last year it was biofuel, this year will probably be something a little different.
We've still got some positive things going for this stock;
1. The A/S has not been raised at all this year, so a R/S seems unlikely.
2. Seems like they're getting ready to anounce something BIG, hence the "renegotiating Mac's contract" PR!
3. No pumping/no dilution, they've been very secretive about what they've been working on all this time after all the PRs they issued last year up to January!
4. THERE'S 9 MMs ON THE BID ready to load up!
5. SYNJ was a very popular stock, (on the most active list for months), it would be easy to attract buyers of this stock with big news!
6. The O/S is not too high for a good run. With large volume comming in, (on big news and if the longs hold on to their shares), the float will tighten up and the PPS can hit new highs!!!
SYNJ may look like it's dead, but things can heat up around here pretty quick! That's what i'm counting on.
GLTA, h2h
All_it_would_take_to_set_this_on_FIRE would be a government grant and a government contract! With the contacts Mac has, the PRs could be believable enough to send SYNJ to a penny or two.
This is the time where nobody knows what's going on, so there's little or no volume. If you want to buy in cheap, now's the time!
BUT if there is something going on (worth while), as soon as the market finds out about it, "BAM" SYNJ is gonna take off like a rocket!!!
In January they PRed they recieved a $5 million loan to work with, they already had $1.5 million and so far this year they have not raised the A/S or even hinted about a R/S. So whatever they're working on, i hope it's BIG! Big enough to excite the market to push the PPS up high!
The waiting is killing me, i really hope our patience pays off BIG TIME!
GLTA, h2h
I'm hoping it's already in the works!!!$800,000 govt. loan to start plant or better!
With all the DD this board has uncovered, IMO, we should be close to finding out.
Re: "we can only hope this happens to us (after they renegotiate, that is)" http://www.biodieselmagazine.com/article.jsp?article_id=4265
IMO, Mac is very close to putting a biodiesel plant together and SYNJ will be part of it!

***PMDP & SYNJ NEWS*OUT GAP&RUN TOMORROW!!!MUST READ;
Plateau Mineral Development, Inc. Reaches Out to BP With Proposed Solutions to the Oil Spill in the Gulf of Mexico
Wednesday 7 July 2010 4:34PM
Plateau Mineral Development, Inc. (Pink Sheets:PMDP) announced today that representatives have reached out to BP in an effort to propose ideas on how to stop the oil leak in the Gulf. Also, PMDP proposed use of enzymes that "eat" oil to facilitate in situ cleanup. This is more environmentally friendly and less costly than most alternatives. No response has been received as of press time.
Plateau's partner company, Environmental Solutions (EnSol), has a technology that can be modified to assist in cleaning up oil spills such as the current Deep Horizon spill in the Gulf of Mexico. While the EnSol technology would require some modifications to meet the exact needs, those changes would be minor. EnSol's technology can be used to reclaim the oil and tar, whilst restoring the beaches. It would take in a volume of contaminated sand, dissociate the components, extracting the oil and tar, thereby allowing clean sand to be deposited back onto the beach.
In addition, Plateau can provide enzymes that "eat" oil, allowing for in situ remediation of the marsh lands and sea grass along the Gulf shoreline. This process is environmentally safer, and less costly than other techniques such as burning and dredging.
Plateau Mineral Development released a statement on December 3, 2009 announcing that Environmental Solutions, LLC (EnSol) had successfully completed its report based on the environmental laboratory testing done over the summer months. The test results were obtained via natural processes that represented no environmental threat in and of themselves.
Robert Matthews of Plateau Mineral Development, Inc., states, "The oil spill in the Gulf of Mexico and its negative environmental impact is of significant importance. It is our goal to make contact with BP and share our ideas with them, and hopefully aid in the termination of the tragic oil leak."
People we've got another potential MOPN type run on our hands here! Watch closely tomorrow!!!
GLTA, h2h
What Mac has been working on in 2010, has been kept secret other than what we read in just a few PRs and filings vs a huge amount of PRs and filings in 2009. With all of the plans that we've read about, it seems to me there's alot more going on that we will find out about. And thats when i believe the market is going to buy up ALOT of SYNJ shares! Things are heating up for SYNJ, but they're about to EXPLODE!
Look at the PR about when they first hired Mac;
Syndication Inc. Announces McCutcheon Marshall Jr. as President and Chairman of the Board for Pinnacle Energy
Syndication Inc., (SYNJ.PK), reports that 17 days ago, on May 19th, 2009, the President and CEO of Sentinel Renewable Energies Inc., McCutcheon Marshall Jr., accepted the post of President and Chairman of the Board for Pinnacle Energy Inc., the wholly owned energy subsidiary of Syndication Inc.
Mr. Marshall's vision is to become a worldwide icon and leader in the alternative energy production industry. "He is equipped with the knowledge of the industry and controls the political cache to achieve that status," said Sorrentino, the CEO of Syndication Inc.
When asked to comment on his new appointment as President of Pinnacle Energy, Marshall stated, "My job is to direct the Federal and State financing in both the grant and loan activities for the Company as well as overseeing the general implementation of its business plan. Because of my relationship with Pinnacle, we have been able to move forward at an accelerated pace and achieve goals that I have been advised not to speak of at this time. I would yield to the advice of Mr. Sorrentino, the CEO of Syndication Inc.: 'It's best to hold our cards close to the chest for the time being,'" said McCutcheon Marshall Jr., the President of Pinnacle Energy Inc.
When the CEO of Syndication Inc., Mr. Sorrentino, was asked to comment on the appointment of the new President, he stated, "In my opinion, Mac is the best in the country and soon to be an icon in the alternative energy production industry, but, at this time, I don't like talking about it. Our competition reads like this: Saudi Arabia Oil; Qatar Petroleum; Abu Dhabi National Oil; Chevron Corporation, USA; Exxon Mobil, USA; and the list goes on and on. In fact, in the world of energy production, 'alternative energy' is the greatest threat to the existing industries profit margin. In my opinion, it's also a fact that in an effort to subsidize the ultimate shift in market profitability, they have launched attack teams to seek out 'upstart' companies and steal their potential markets in both financing and production capabilities. The thing that worries me most is that they have literally billions of dollars in assets to do it with. It is for these reasons that Mac and I have chosen not to release news on our many accomplishments already achieved. In the interest of my shareholders and the Company, it's best to be quiet for just a while," said Sorrentino, the CEO of Syndication Inc.
*IMO the time for SYNJ to RUN is comming SOON!!!
GLTA, h2h
Maybe SYNJ found a better way to finance their projects! This is from January's PR;
When the CEO, Brian Sorrentino was asked to comment on the financing he stated, "As mentioned in earlier news releases, the Company will continue to pursue multiple sources of financing however, we are extremely excited about this particular arrangement. (the HSBC Bank loan) The Madrid finance group is already considering finance packages (different financing) for additional projects in our Energy City agenda, specifically the Palmetto Gas Pipe Line. They are reasonable in cost, faster and more predictable then the government, extremely well capitalized and motivated to grab - with us - a piece of South Carolina and the renewable energy revolution. I can't ask for a better partner. In the Kingstree S.C. Bio-diesel manufacturing facility, we have staked our claim in the State of South Carolina and the frontier of global renewable energy. It's my strategy to dig in, plant our flag and hang on. In my opinion, with this crew and a couple of smart moves, over the next 10 years, the natural growth of the industry will carry us into a rich and profitable future," said Brian Sorrentino, the CEO of Syndication Inc. News Pending.
IMO, they'll get the right financing, because Mac has the projects lined up! SYNJ was already looking at additional ways to finance the Energy City projects!
From today's PR;
Mr. Marshall Jr. started with the Company under the terms of his original employment agreement executed on May 19th, 2009 and has been the point man on the development of our bio-diesel manufacturing facility in South Carolina for SRE S.C. His office has been principally responsible for the overall development activities, time lines, strategies and key contract negotiations for SRE S.C.
Put it all together people, BIG THINGS ARE ABOUT TO HAPPEN! Mac renegotiating his contract means the projects are about to become a reality! He knows it, Brian knows it and the board knows it! Why do you think the board authorized Brian to consider the terms of Mr. Marshall's proposal in an effort to craft a final employment arrangement.
All IMO, but it looks that way from the PRs. I hope we get more (clear) information soon!
GLTA,h2h
Sounds to me like Mac has got everything lined up, ready to go and is about to get the money to finally make it all happen! It's a smart move on Mac's part to renegotiate the terms of his contract at this time, he sees the future potential of this project!
From reading the January PR this project is suposed to be HUGE! With the contacts Mac has, this project could be bigger than we anticipated! There's no way SYNJ's going to lose Mac, he just wants the position and compensation he deserves.
I'm sure they will resolve the issue with the financing agreement so Mac can get everything underway. Getting an international banking arrangement issued by HSBC Bank, London is not an easy task i'm sure considering the state of the economy.

ZIPZ ON WATCH (NEW BUSINESS DIRECTION) READ;
THE INTERVIEW NOTES - STOCKGOODIES.COM
JUNE 30,2010 Blogtalkradio.com
Rough summary notes from the interview today. Do not take the quotes as word-for-word. If you want the full bit, go listen on the website.
Mike – Host “Stock Goodies”
Chris, Maliki, Patrick, Cher, Troy - Co-Moderators
ZIPPI Networks CEO, ZIPZ.pk, Robert R.
“I have been in the internet business for 18 years, partners with my brother. Involved from the start in dialup. Realized opportunities were there to education the population about the internet in the early 90’s. Started company ultimately bought by Earthlink. Authored a web directory published to McMillan.”
“Started GeoCities competitor. Sold off company in 2002.”
“Set up ZIPPY with private network and relationships with eBay starting in 2002. Interactive tutorials, hosting, and wholesale products available to private parties.”
“ZIPZ was created to capitalize on the wholesale product wave entering eBay in the early 2000’s. Turning clutter into cash became their motto. Zippy created a platform to track members, payout commissions, build teams and track revenues.”
“Shifted to mobile applications with Zippy Swap as a business model as an app. Due to be released in the coming weeks. Being tested as we speak.”
“During that transition, Zippy decided to include games, social networking, and dating among upcoming product streams.”
“Exponential explosion of application market.”
“Mobile apps are the next wave in conjunction with company websites.”
“BP Blaster released last week in approval pipeline with Apple.”
“Excited about future in mobile applications market.”
“Currently targeting iPhone and iPad.”
“Future will offer us the chance to cross over to other phones.”
“Zippy is so sure about the market for mobile apps because of their experience, having their finger on the pulse in Silicon Valley.”
“The iFund is pushing the application development for Apple with more than $800 million in funding.”
“Sometimes experts can be wrong, but looking at experts, statistics, and iTunes store – This is the Future!”
“As of this date, Apple has paid out more than a Billion dollars in application download revenue to app developers – 45K developers out there right now.”
“Apps average $2.80/each.”
“I see the next wave of the internet will be portability, interactive features, moving applications to multiple platforms (i.e., Droid, etc.)”
“The download fee is driving the market, but advertising and in-game revenue will take shape as revenue models within that market. Companies are being successful through ads on their games. i.e., Paper Toss – this game alone has brought in 400K per month in advertising revenue off of a free app.”
“Advertising partners may include AdMob and iAds moving forward. Actively in conversations with both groups. Will ultimately probably have to pick one.”
“We want to be laser focused with bringing the right ads to our apps.”
Regarding revenue channel models –
“The more aps we develop, the more momentum.”
“1 in 10 apps bring in significant revenue.”
“Moving to reach critical mass with apps in the Apple pipeline.”
“Social networking and at least 5 other apps are targeted to reach the market by end of the year.”
“We will be looking at download revenue, ad revenue, in app avenue (i.e., ZippySwap).”
“ZippySwap app will be based on $1.50 insertion fee.”
“Current model emphasizes “in app purchases” to increase functionality for players.”
“I would like to share with the listeners, that Zippy has been through several different cycles as a company. We spent $9 million to focus on eBay with our previous efforts. We recognize our business model was not scaleable, and the logistics were too tremendous to continue. Rather than drive the company into bankruptcy, we decided to pull back and reposition the company in a market that is exploding. We are quick on our feet. Recognize trends. We are in early and that can make all the difference in the world.”
“I see our company building up a significant mobile app database.”
“I see Zippy becoming a fun memorable brand representing a mobile experience you will enjoy and remember.”
“Have a look at the website and check out the apps, etc.”
The team they put together and all of the work they've been doing wasn't just to pump the stock, it was for something REAL! Too much hard work, time and money have gone into this project to just leave it like this!
Let's hope everything is on the up and up and going in the right direction, but just taking longer than we wanted it to. You make a good point when you said "Could have easily pumped this harder to steal a lot more money if that was their intention".
I have been in several stocks that were silent for long periods of time, but when they were about to issue more PRs, huge volume came out of nowhere, PPS rose up and sudenly there's a whole lotta pumpin' goin' on!
In cases like that i've seen most of the longs sell too low, we've got to realize new money comming into SYNJ is going to buy this up to push the PPS to where they're going to make a nice profit! But it really does depend on the content of the PRs, like you said "eventually something will have to be PR'd. Just hope it's a hell of a PR next time".
IMO, i really think the MOMO is comming back to SYNJ! The dream is still alive!!!
When? I just hope it's soon.

***Very few of even the"experienced traders"understand this principle!
I can't tell you how many serious traders tell newbies to buy at the bid, as if that is some money-making method of trading, it isn't. It does nothing but create bag holders. It is the one sure way to stop a run, and to those who think that you are providing "bid support" by bid squatting, you don't. "Bid support" occurs naturally from slapping the ask. That is what drives a bid and ask up at the same time. Bid squatting sends both the bid and ask down, down, down.
Pay the ask, we continue upwards, sit on the bid and you deserve to hold a bag and you will hold a bag, I can guarantee that with a huge amount of certainty!
Buy at the ask, when we get the big news! SUPPORT THE RUN, PEOPLE!

From when to when, what date to what date?
MMs are constantly shorting many stocks everyday, that's part of the way they do business, but if they don't cover at a low price, they'll need to cover at a higher price and make less money, but they have to cover their shorts eventually!
SYNJ will run on more than just "wishful thinking". All the DD shows it has way too much going for it, to just leave it like this forever! AND IT'S BEEN A LONG TIME WITHOUT AN UPDATE... IT'S TIME!
IMO, holding long and strong!

That depends on where shareholders put their sell orders at!
"If for some miracle we get a great PR this can shoot up really quickly. I just don't think there are many shares on the way up to .001".
SYNJ has been shorted and naked short sold all the way down to .0001, but it moves easily now even on low volume, which shows the shorts are covered by now and the float is all bought up! MMs are ready to move this up...just need the good news!
But there are some shareholders that own a large amount of shares and if too many sell too low, it can hold back the run! If everyone agrees not to sell until like say, $.01+ on good news, we can really give this thing a run for our money!
One more very positive thing SYNJ shareholders have going for us is that there's been little or no dilution since they got the funding, which shows the management is serious about doing business, instead of just taking our money.
All the signs are positive at this point,(except the lack of news), but even that can be a good thing because when the good news does come, it should cause a huge positive surprise reaction to the upside!
HAPPY FATHERS DAY!
All IMO. GLTY, h2h
