<font color=green>*** Steve's Announcement to the Forum
A duty of a forum moderator is to approach the company and pursue lines of questioning as to garnish knowledge of the current status, goal, and operations of the company. In the course of such questionings via email, there naturally emerged a conversation about the eventual change of reporting status for WNBD. After several email exchanges, I wish to inform the forum of my findings.
As we know, Eric recently traveled to New York and provided the nice pictures of the paint store using our products. In addition to the paint store visit, Eric consulted a securities attorney about the eventual upgrading of WNBD's reporting status. Eric's perspective is that over the long term, public companies which carefully plan changes in their reporting status have a higher probability of attracting capital and institutional (patient) investors; events which benefit long term holders and the company. Thus we now know his recent trip to New York was to discuss, with qualified legal professionals, about reporting -- laying the foundation for becoming a fully reporting company. In addition to such meetings and planning, Eric remains diligent as not to incur the substantial costs of reporting without a matching pool of capital as to make it a feasible corporate milestone event. News about this will be released as it becomes available and I will try to keep current information in the forum.
Truly,
Steve Hess"
Morning all... I'll be getting in this AM as well. Looking forward to helping ride it higher.
I'm in no way affiliated with the company as a friend or family member - found WNBD in December before I even knew Ihub existed. Oops, better put my pom-poms away.
Agreed. Still the calm before the storm :)
There's a lot of speculation about different companies, but it should be noted that just because specific companies don't mention OUR company in their conference calls doesn't mean we should be worried. There are several candidates out there for the R/M.. possibly even several no one here has yet discovered. Let's pay close attention to BLDV, they will update us when necessary.
REPOST
Hello Robbie,
What the shareholders have come to know about me is that I do not take any steps to influence price. This is to ensure that investors don’t need to second guess what the company’s motives are. Although it is true that the price at this moment has declined by 70% at this moment in two days, it has also increased by nearly 1000% measured over the past 2 months. I honestly believe that the best contribution that I can make to our investors is to be reliable about the following things:
Tell the shareholders the truth
Work hard to build the company in real terms, not as a market play
Let the market know through authentic News Releases when we have had progress or setbacks so that the market can decide upon its own valuation
Take a long term view so that deep, important principles determine our future, not short term daily trading psychology
You will find that great enterprises are founded on such principles and great enterprises do well for their investors over the long term.
Thank you again Robbie for your shareholding of Winning Brands Corporation. I think you have made a wise choice!
Sincerely,
Eric Lehner, CEO
Winning Brands Corporation
Have you tried e-mailing Eric with any of your concerns?
I'd rather see pom poms than get a kick in gonads.
I'm sure you know of ways to minimize your losses. Good luck.
It's having a full time job and still trying to trade but not having time to look at L2.
L2 please?
Go back and read the posts, they're talking about SYNM doing a reverse split, a company that may have nothing to do with BLDV. It's all speculation at this point.
I've been playing for about 6 years casually; can throw about 250-300 feet accurately within a 25 foot wide fairway or so. Just recently I've started taking it more seriously as a sport, I've been practicing putts and trying different grips on my forehand drive to produce power beyond 300 feet. I think some of the distances you see pros throw (5-600 feet) is just brute strength, but I'd like to get 400 regularly. I have 8 or 9 discs.
I play in the Northeast - mostly Massachusetts (Borderland State Park, Amesbury Pines, Devens) and Maine at Enman's field.
Hey Nightroads, glad to have you here. Play often? What region do you play regularly?
20% spread... can't wait to see some volume.
If any of you out there have already discovered disc golf, say hello. If you are disc-curious and need a break from all the charts and technical stuff, feel free to check in from time to time - I will be posting links to disc golf videos, golf clinics, tips, disc reviews, course reviews, basket reviews.
Everyone ready for a fourth green day? :)
Don't forget to boardmark...

BLDV .012 getting hammered
wow, 432K
You "warned" us to make our life easier, no? So tell us WHY we should heed the warning.
That makes no sense. Anyone who is thinking about investing in a company should do their DD. I've done mine, but perhaps I have missed something. Enlighten me.
I don't own any PURO shares right now, I'm waiting for an entry point, but I just didn't see any proof about how you knew something negative was occuring with the company, and I still don't. If you did the research, INCLUDE that in the post. Why do you think they're on the wrong timeframe, etc..?
Where is everyone?
Maybe you should join another investing group?

Hi all. I just wanted to give you all a heads up incase your thinking of investing here. ITKH is involved in some kind of hushed up legal problems. They were on a very high recommendation about a month and a half ago by this group I belong to involving Jason Fuller. The day he made the buy recommendation, the stock went from .20 to .26 and then plummeted to .16 and as we all have seen, just kept going. So, before you buy here, keep in mind the legal problems. I won't post here again for a while. I just wanted to give a heads up is all. All investment advice from me is my opinion only and as such, should be viewed and used as a tool to your investing and not as it's soul recommendation for buying or selling.
You have no proof of anything negative going on. Why would your group recommend it as a buy without doing any real meaningful research, in order to find out what was wrong... and since it has dropped, your group still hasn't done the research?
You work in a post office and you're new to Ihub. No one is going to take anything you say seriously without any proof to back up your claims. No wonder it's going to be your only post for a while. Next time it will be deleted if it is unsubstantiated.
That being said, thanks for dropping in - and if you have anything substantial to say please feel free to contribute.
I thought you had left for good..
you're like the one-eyed Mikhail from LOST... thrown through the super sonic death-trap fence... comes back. Harpoon through the heart... comes back.
Shares look extremely cheap here.
Piggy backing on Sterling's name the way up, then trying to place all the blame on him without any evidence? He's posted his personal phone number numerous times, CALL him. But of course, that post wasn't really directed at him, it was for everyone else who reads the board to stir up some doubt after you sold, right?
Transparent and pathetic, really.

ALL HAIL STERLING.
He's been averaging UP without selling any shares. He recently stated his last buy was at . 012 and that he will continue to accumulate.
Maybe you dumped, though, and want to get back in cheaper?
You said this less than an hour ago...

Chart needed this dip today, it's all part of the staircase
The nexgen site has been under construction... you can find the archived site if you go back a way in the posts, someone pointed it out before the BLDV site went down.. still curious, though ;)
Maybe it's an update to the site... and maybe the MM's know they need to cover?
OT: Go Celtics...
That is all. Please don't mention the Patriots :) Some of us are disappointed in them, despite what the national media says... but, I should get some sympathy here, as they were not any worse than the MM's.
One thing is for sure, though, we're all in BLDV together ;)
I got my KIND today too... but I don't think anyone else has posted the nice note that Pearson's sent with the products:
""""""Dear XXXXXXX,
I would like to extent a personal thank you for your recent purchase of Winning Brands products. Additionally, we appreciate your patience during the delay in shipment. This delay was caused by a packaging improvement for the US market.
We now have a complete inventory and anticipate lead-times to be standard. As a token of our appreciation, please use the following coupon code when purchasing...."
They're not stopping you.
From the BP news site...
BP announced today that it intends to take a 50 per cent stake in Tropical BioEnergia SA
BP announced today that it intends to take a 50 per cent stake in Tropical BioEnergia SA, a joint venture established by Brazilian companies Santelisa Vale and Maeda Group, which is constructing a 435 million liter (115 million gallons) a year ethanol refinery in Edéia, Goias State, Brazil.
The joint venture, in which Santelisa Vale and Maeda Group would each hold 25 per cent, also intends to progress plans to build a second ethanol refinery, investing a total of approximately R$1.66 billion (US$1 billion) in the two refineries.
Assuming all the required approvals are received, BP will pay around R$100 million (US$59.8 million) for the 50 per cent stake, subject to working capital adjustments, and provide funding for agreed future investment in line with its shareholding. The parties said that they hoped to be able to complete the transaction before the end of June 2008.
"This investment, which is the largest made by an international oil company in the Brazilian ethanol industry represents a significant step in delivering BP's strategy for biofuels which centres around sustainable feedstocks which do not impact on food supplies and investing in research work to develop the technologies required to produce advanced biofuels," commented Phil New, head of BP Biofuels. "BP is delighted to be partnering with two Brazilian companies with leading positions in their sectors and we look forward to a long relationship with them."
The joint venture will focus on potential sugarcane production and the manufacturing and marketing of conventional ethanol, including the associated agricultural assets and cogeneration plants. Sugarcane is the most efficient source of biofuel currently available. Sugarcane lends itself to further improvement through the use of advanced biofuels technology and will therefore be a compelling source of renewable fuel for the foreseeable future. It provides a greenhouse gas emissions reduction of up to 80 per cent.
Operations at the first refinery are expected to commence during the second half of 2008, with full capacity anticipated by mid-2010. The refineries will be positioned to supply the Brazilian ethanol markets with the potential to export to the demand markets of US, Europe and Asia.
Besides developing sustainable biofuels, the refineries are expected to be able to sell surplus electricity, with each of them exporting at least 30 MW of surplus power from integrated bagasse cogeneration facilities. The facilities are also intended to offer a potential platform for deploying future technologies such as lignocellulosics and biobutanol.
The Maeda Group is one of the largest cotton producers in the world. "BP's decision to join Tropical Bioenergia in this new venture is significant," said Jorge Maeda, chief executive officer of Maeda Group. "Today we are demonstrating how Maeda's unique agriculture expertise, attendant network of relationships, and knowledge of the region's soils, climate and rural labor conditions combined with Santelisa Vale's sugarcane expertise can provide sustainable renewable and reliable solutions for fuel." Santelisa Vale Group is the second-largest sugar cane crusher in Brazil and the first in energy cogeneration from bagasse. As it already operates a number of ethanol refineries, Santelisa Vale has expertise along the entire value chain of ethanol/sugar production.

Notes to Editors:
Transport accounts for around 21 per cent of all carbon dioxide emissions.
BP is of one of the world's largest energy companies, providing its customers with fuel for transportation, energy for heat and light, retail services and petrochemicals products for everyday items. It is the largest oil and gas producer in the U.S. and one of the largest refiners. BP also has a global network of around 25,000 service stations.
BP is a leading player in the global biofuels market. In the US, BP has blended and distributed 763 million US gallons of ethanol and about 1 million US gallons of biodiesel in 2007. In Europe, BP has sold 344 million liters of ethanol and 847 million liters of biodiesel in 2007. BP’s sales of biofuels in 2007 accounted for about 10% of the global biofuels market.
Maeda Group is recognized worldwide as being one of the most vertically integrated players in the cotton value chain with 80 years in the industry. The Company has one of the few cotton seed crushing businesses in Brazil, producing several products from cotton seeds: Vegetable oil, which contains no “trans fat” and is used as input in the food industry, Linter (the material around the cotton seeds) used for special products such as money paper and LCD screens and cotton seed meal, used as animal feed.
Santelisa Vale, Brazil’s second largest sugar and ethanol producer and first in energy cogeneration from bagasse, expects to crush 18 million tons of sugar cane in 2008. The company will produce 25 million bags of sugar and 770 million liters of ethanol. Santelisa Vale also produces and sells a surplus of 420,000 Mwh of electricity from sugar cane bagasse – enough to supply a population of 1 million per year. The company, with over 70 years of history, is a leader in technology and innovation within the segment.
Santelisa Vale and Maeda Group were advised by ING Bank.

Hi Taki, is there any way you could make this available to those of us who still have day jobs?
