Some say sea salt is better. Some say Kosher. I use the cheap stuff in the "Water Softener" bags. I place my gifted blessings on it and to me, its twice as good as anybody elses;)
All you need is faith, and lots of salt.
Not really. Saturated Brine could be considered water, and you won't need any flotation devices to keep you afloat.
I am just wondering if he walks on water.
Edited:
Was that JayCee, or Jesse James?
JC and Jesse are both folk hero names.
You might recall the other JC who lived about 2000 years ago. They say his book is the most widely published in the world.
Where did you read that?
Would you like to see a picture of some algae and some critters eating it?
I will see if I can set up my web cam.
If youor this company wants to negotiate a contract to raise the so called "endangered" brine shrimp of LAX with the Airport Commissioners, I can show them how to make them thrive in a two gallon container. They once paid $170,000 to make runway exceptions for the shrimp. I don't how they fared on that. I can raise them.
I think they put it in RITC, so they wouldn't want to reopen. Lloyd's seems to set up new syndicates whenever they want to, and has numerous underwriters put on a watch list every year. When they become illiquid, they are not allowed to write new business, and if liquidity is restored, they can start up again, but I wouldn't count on that from 839.
I am pretty sure Dondoodit has more info on such thing as I do, you just have to squeeze him for it and ignore the wisecracks:)
My investment technique is similar to the SEC's investigative nature. I expect to see bad and scary things, but I actually turn the lights on before I say anything. Chasing shadows is fun until the lights come on.
Ban was lifted for CNTN on April 15, and the pinksheets stopped publishing quotes.
CNTN is currently controlled by an "alleged" Wall Street Investment Banker with about 10 years of experience.
I wouldn't even be surprised to learn that she has a seat on the NYSE, and is just "piddling around" with CNTN. One recent Google search implied it, but it wasn't etched in stone. Not everything that you find in the shadows is bad and scary.
Apparently, the current mandate of the SEC is to look into the shadows, and say "Bad;" "Scary"
My technology is publicly accessible via the USPTO, but my standards of disclosure prevent me from actually broadcasting the web page. You can search for Probiotic Aquaculture Device and Process.
Excerpt:"The present invention provides a device and process of producing Omega complex (Omega-3,6,9)fatty acids. "
These are, in fact, the foundation blocks of forming oils in seawater.
Of course, Omega 3 sells for $60.00 a pint, not $60.00 a barrel. Considering the difference, I might be able to afford more expensive "cracking" technologies.
My biggest problem is finding a cracking technology that will make "food grade" material. My current technology is suitable for use as animal feed as a nutritional supplement.
In other words, it looks great on paper; but I can read it better when the t's are crossed and the i's are dotted.
There is certainly no need to panic. The cash is what this company needs to get and stay "afloat" if you pardon the pun. The damage will be in terms of finders fees and special considerations for the lender, goodies for the execs, and some lingering costs which had been placed on hold until the cash arrived. The share price should reflect the combination of the remaining cash plus the remaining value of the assets, plus or minus any valuation of the enterprise.
The stock has traded close to asset valuation for the most part of it's trading history. The worst part is that they have not (to my knowledge) yet disclosed the terms of the RSOP purchase, and the best way to follow the O/S is by contacting the transfer agent on a regular basis. That is not a good business practice, and such poor business practices lower the expected enterprise valuation.
I think that one of the best ways to visualize this business model is this:
They burn cash everyday until they actually find something.
The equity model strongly lends itself to timing of the purchase, and selling during any extended period there is no information.
Any cash recieved in any transaction could be burned in a very short time. Some stability in pricing could be established by a projection of expenses for each exploratory outing. Anything less is called "poor stewardship" of assets.
Sometimes the winds of realization don't blow. They suck:)
If all other excuses fail, blame someone else.
There is algae, and there is algae. You have to maintain close control over the species propagation or you end up with pond scum that stinks. Some of the algaes which grow in the ocean are noxious weeds. Nori is a valuable food product. This company could make a ton of money if their technology could produce nori. It's actually more valuable than crude oil.
Sushi, anyone?
$17.00 in trade volume today.
I used to pay almost 3 times that in commission.
I have been trading for a few years. (21 or more)
And back then, a dollar was worth about 17 today.
"Scammed" is a term of relevance. In this business, "cash burn" will kill you without even a hint of dishonesty.
Can you imagine? Some of us actually would pay to go out on a dive boat. These guys get paid for going.
Dangerous occupation? Yeah, so is taking a bath. So many people are injured in the bath every year, you wouldn't believe it.
And the numbers are only assumed. So often, the placements are even lower than recent prices.
A million in funds often carries a finders fee, and options, and so much more.
By the way, that is 400 million shares, not 40 million.
Check your math.
If these pinkies went into business actually printing the shares, they would put all of the tissue companies out of business. 400 sheets on a roll for less than a buck.
On the other hand, this is more of a value proposition than most pink offers. They actually have equipment and a business plan to justify the value of the shares. Cheap, and ridiculous, but appropriate to the price.
The worst part is paying the commission on the shares. You need to buy big to get the value.
It took me 3 days to get those .01's, even though the news was out for a week. Just because nobody shared it with us is no excuse. I blame my own reliance on data from this corrupt system of clowns for making the purchase of my own volition.
Of course my supply and demand figures show their worth even after "breaking the story" myself (after the purchase). Nobody is selling.
Best of luck.
I figure to let the blood run in the street this time.
That one was juicy. Can you imagine?
Should I blame the Real Estate agent who sold me a house at the top of the market, or the Bank who loaned me the money to buy the house?
Do you think I am to blame? What do you know?
I need a scapegoat.
What do you mean I signed the papers and took responsibility?
Nobody else does. Why should I?
Of course, If I learned anything in the last eight years, It is this:
If anything goes wrong: Blame Bush!
Yet, Angels fear to tread.
The suit is "civil" not criminal, so nobody is jailed. Somebody should be filing "significant events."
As far as validity of the suit, everybody needs someone else to blame for their business failures. Blaming other people is actually the world's oldest profession, regardless of what others have told you.
Even God is pretty good at it. He blames the wicked for the destruction of Sodom and Gamorrah, and we all know who really did it.
I take it the suspension is lifted. No more news.
Pinksheets.com refuses to publish quotes, so instead of having better information, it is worse than before.
I wonder if they forget the whole thing when the name change goes into effect?
I suppose I will have to speak with Mr. Eckelberry about the assignments of his patents to make bubbles. Or, maybe I should visit with Lawrence Welk.
Anda Vun anda two...
Everybody Polka.
I do like his recently published application. It confirms my technology in scientific detail. I can't wait intil the USPTO decides to pin the tail on the real donkey.
It must be nice to see the public invest a fresh million in a patent application. Usually they depend on issuance. Filing an application is pretty easy.
The waiting will make you lose your hair, which might explain a few things.
Does anybody understand the terminology "Significant Developments" these days?
I guess you can't file an 8K from a holding cell.

Sheesh. Just when I thought things were turning around, and the FBI had nothing.
Ambulance chasers, maybe?
It sure bolsters confidence in the paid news organisations, Yo?
Shouldn't the reporters who are paid to dig up the dirt have reported this to us, or are they too busy accepting kickbacks for publishing good news?
Maybe RICO needs a new pair of glasses?
This isn't the first time I have seen the "News" publish anything but. If I wanted only the rosy opinions from a newspaper, I could ask a nine year old how life is treating them.
Another 15K nibble for me. When is the shareholders meeting? Does First Bank plan on electing a board, or just leaving us bored?
The last group that tried had a 20% interest, and didn't influence the board. I am not sure that 9.8% is enough to interest anyone.
Oh, Gee. I was just too slow on the trigger. The ask ran away, and the market closed.
Yeah, sure. You first. I looked for news, no news, no filings. No sellers? I don't have any left to sell, and I am not interested in buying at that price. I have too many other fish in the pan.
Hurry, Hurry, only 15 minutes left to own them before the weekend!!
Look at that lady fly. The reservation system never worked this well when she was IYSA. Those Lindyhoppers must be dancing in the streets.
I've noticed similar reactions. I have even noticed that the site is incorrectly named. I find few "investors" hereabouts.
Mostly pumpers, bashers, traders, and philosophers; the latter of which are treated similar to dogs, as the saying goes.
Ok, so now that suspension is over for another company: CNTN. Pinksheets won't quote it.
No further information given by the SEC. Auto-lifted, and a dead stock. Destroyed by an implication, and no actual evidence provided to the public.
I am trying to catch up, but I don't feel like attacking that wall again.
Whoop! There it is.
How long have you been holding those? I don't think that many shares traded in the last month. Lots of shares traded above here, and a large number traded with outs in the 2 penny above range. I just happen to think there aren't many sellers who can get out here with a profit. The supply is limited, and I am taking from any weak hands.
Not if the rumor starts with "out of."
I was trying to do that, but nobody was selling, and news has to be coming. There just isn't enough time to wait for somebody to get scared, so I am slowly moving it up to see where the sellers are. I found one, but had to bid .011 today. I will wait here until someone else takes him out.
Nobody is selling at .01. How can you make them sell lower?
I will be the first to admit I am not making money. The price goes up, and my account shows a higher value, but it isn't real money until I can sell it.
There just aren't many holders who can sell at .01 and make money. I already own most of the shares which sold under here.
So congratulations to anyone who bought cheap, and sold to me.
You can't make any money sitting and watching, so are you selling to me? I am almost the only person who has bought a significant number of shares in the past two weeks. You sure haven't made a lot of money on my trades. .003 x 100000 is only $300, and I haven't bought that many shares, or given up that much spread on many of the shares which I did buy. Nobody else is buying, or even selling unless I bought them.
I tried to scare somebody into taking at .013 with a bid at .011, and they whacked me. I was sitting at .01 and invisible for a few days, after a day of visible bid, and then the MM whacked a whole 5000 to take it back to .009. Tight fisted, they are.
So where are the shares? Where are they coming from when I can buy? I had a feeling some leaves might shake out of the tree if I put in a higher bid. I raked a few. Up to you to decide if you want some. They are still hanging there.
Are you watching now as I jack up the bid and take the shares?
35K more for me.
Funny, I usually don't get filled at the bid.
I won't find that link. What I say, is that they are tied up in court becuase of the illiquidity of their position, and unless someone walks in with a reorganization; we walk out liquidated to pay off Brooke debts.
