I thought it was odd at the time
Didn't they say they couldn't release share info at that time , dealing with my memory here.
Not with Broadridge anymore, KFA tracked down the TA , I believe, a couple of weeks ago. Its on the Board , somewhere...
That won't happen, they did too well last time.
Did learn a lot in 2011, I bet you did too!
:)
Your welcome,
My shares are in the vault,
Let me know when we hit .50,
I got another one percolating here also,
Looks like 2012 will be a hell of alot better for me than 2011
Believe me, those are not my words, I did say Cliff Notes.. :)
I found news reports on the case.
For those not willing to risk the peril of reading the whole decision, the cliff notes version:
Environmental Protection Agency rules controlling cement plants’ storage of a substance used in making concrete were temporarily blocked by a federal appeals court.
The Portland Cement Association, an industry trade group, in October argued before the Washington court that new emissions standards are arbitrary and that their adoption violates the federal Clean Air Act.
A three-judge panel today agreed in part, issuing an order blocking rules governing the storage of a cement ingredient known as “clinker” pending further EPA review. While the agency previously conceded it hadn’t given enough notice of the new standards, it refused to delay enforcement, the court said. Other rules were left in place by the judges.
“Because EPA will now be receiving comments for the first time, the standards could likely change substantially,” the panel said. “Thus, industry should not have to build expensive new containment structures until the standard is finally determined.”
The rules, intended to reduce mercury emissions and other cement plant-generated air pollutants, are to be enforced starting in 2013. Industry advocates claim compliance with the regulations may cost $3.4 billion and result in the closure of some facilities.
The EPA has said the cost wouldn’t exceed $950 million.
3,000 Degrees
Cement plants melt limestone and other minerals to go into concrete, used in roads, bridges and buildings, at temperatures that can exceed 3,000 degrees Fahrenheit (1,649 degrees Celsius), generating mercury pollution that ranks second behind that from coal-fired power plants, according to the EPA.
Portland cement, according to the court’s ruling, is a fine gray powder used to make that construction grade concrete.
Mercury, which can harm development of children’s brains, is released when cement components such as clay, limestone and shale are heated in a kiln, according to EPA documents.
The EPA rules also mandate cuts in acid gases, sulfur dioxide and particulate matter.
In its ruling, the appellate panel rejected the industry association’s contention that the EPA failed to consider the effect of its standards on older cement kilns, calling it an “eminently reasonable decision based on the facts the EPA had before it,” which show that older kilns are already being replaced.
Carter Phillips, the attorney who argued the case for the Portland Cement Association, didn’t immediately respond to a telephone message seeking comment on the court’s order. Wyn Hornbuckle, a spokesman for the Justice Department, also didn’t immediately reply to a phone message seeking comment.
Merry Christmas to all, Enjoy the holidays,
2012 is going to be our year!
That is that damn spread .34 .47
Every time I used to try to narrow the spread they would buy enough shares from my bid to knock me off the bid and drop it back down again. I just need a lot more powder. :)
Part of the exchange for placing James Wilson the Board????
I hate guessing!
WAKL is out of posts for the night, you will have to wait till the morning , bottom line is we finally got some sign of life from the company
Well, you should be worth more tomorrow than you were at 4PM today
In due course...
Is that quicker than or longer than imminently
lol
But I don't feel too bad about my day trader buddy, I was telling him about this when it was in the .20's (the first time, lol)
then the 40's, 70's
He finally couldn't take it and bought in at 1.90,
He has averaged down, but I just told him he hass ADD, put it away, its not a day trading stock.
But will be very very very hesitant to do this again
The only thing I could tell them was, but hey, I'm out a hell of a lot more than you
That was a serious question, this news settles the longs down who have seen their account go blood red (Me),
But , does it bring in new buyers? Will probably bring in flippers, they know this has been a money maker for them, I'm not sure if it will attract new investors.
Tomorrow should be interesting.
To say the least.
WAKL, my day trading buddy who finally bought in at 1.90, and averaged down a little since then, is ready to strangle me. I did mention this to 2 other friends, I described it as a Early Retirement Plan, 1 wouldn't buy in, deathly afraid of pennies, and I haven't heard from the other guy.
:)
So how much are shares going for tomorrow?
Get out of here!!!
I see 27new posts in 10 minutes, have to read them to find out, huh!!1
Yours is a normal reaction when you first log on to a Board, see multiple posts touting .50 to $1.00 in a week or weeks, you buy, and pssst, I can see where you might be checking to see if you were taken. I bought in on that last run up in the summer and pffft, the air went out immediately. Did more reading, remained a lurker so I didn't get PM hammered like you did, and felt confident enough to average down. Have seen enough o fpennies in 1 short year to realize if you have a long term hold, it will only pop (and hold it) if real hard news is delivered. Not promises. In my inexperienced opinion, :)
Good luck and hang in there.
You have to be prepared to hold these shares for a while, maybe up to a year, or more.
There have been talks of acquisitions and contracts, but this won't really pop until the ink is dried on the contracts and acquisitions and they are released.
The business world moves slowly, much slower than the attention span of a penny stock holder. I have learned that much in less than 1 year on IHUB. If you believe the CEO, and his game plan, then be prepared to hold and eventually you will be rewarded.
Nah, not everyone is hostile, this is a long term hold, and will pop when real news comes in, contracts, acquisitions.
Put it in the lockbox for safekeeping
As long as someone is buying, Fill up that sleigh
Good cheer there you hearty fellow,
And here is to irresponsible investing,
Let it not keep you up at night
Oh, Be Jesus, Mary and Joseph. We will have to a little cleaning up, put a sparkle on the place for our new neighbors.
Welcome to the States
Don't know if I can pick up any more shares, not to liquid, and Td Ameritrade makes it difficult to buy this.
What I have , and the dividend shares will go into the vault.
Merry Christmas to you, across the Pond, and don't be a stranger.
We have all seen how fast this can move with the right news
Now, will the new boys in charge produce,
I do say though, this must be driving Wilson batty!
You got that right, very easy to get them confused
You are not getting much sleep lately,
:)
The Board has appointed Mr. Uma Maheshwaran Balasubramaniam as its new Chief Executive Officer and has named Mr. Sharif Rahman as the Company's new Chief Financial Officer. Each of these individuals has served on the Company's Board since September 12, 2011.
Appointment of James Wilson to the Board
Appointment of Mohammed Falaknaz to the Board
You must be a cheap date
I don't see that happening, why wait until Friday, they could have bought today at .18, you think they will get a better price than .18 on Friday?
The buyers have bought, others watching are waiting for more news.
But I have been wrong before, held on to my Precious,
PSP$$W
Don't forget we've had many change of command also with different ideas of how to run the company. Perhaps it was Falok being vice president that made the decision for Dubai. I don't know without confirmation.
If anyone had a clue what this stock was about, then news like that would have moved it today.
if it wasn't for Seawind i wouldn't be typing this at the moment.
Exactly, many of the other claims and plans have sort of went pffft.
Where exactly is the DFD Group, that was a big splash when they signed on,
And the Crown Jewel is Seawind International, and as far I can tell, James Wilson is not sharing that with us.
Oh well, sigh, tomorrow is another day in the life of a PSPW long
:)
Th ehell with PSPW , Someone pinch me, I never thought I'd see .24 again.
Tiso,
there is only so much more room it can go down,
:)
With all due respect,
The company had a wonderful plan laid out,
In a new and energized field, and ever since the merger date,
Have been fumbling around like thumbless homo sapiens,
IN with the Italians, and their bank,
Oops, accounting irregularities, Out with the Italians,
Back to Toby,
3 months ago the new saviors arrived,’
Dubaii, India…and….?
Nothing since.
The original DD, Great, we have Rudana on our side,
I looked up Rudana, and they scared the bejessus out of me,
They ran in and out of deals, usually leaving behind a mess,
But I like Seawind, had thought that they might salvage the operation,
Well , Rudana’s past caught up with it, Bankruptcy, and we got ensnared in a legal entanglement,
I have not seen much in the way of competence yet from our heroes,
And our lone friend amongst this Greek tragedy, the indomitable Toby, has been sent to the woodshed, most likely for talking to us.
There is no reason things had to get this out of hand, there are plenty of ways the company could support the PPS, Unless as you say, these are bright men, and this is all part of their plan,
No, like a sailor with Odysseus, I have heard the Sirens call, I am all in, and there is no turning back now, but my confidence is not built on blind faith,
This next month we either crash upon the rocks, or receive stalwart winds that put the good ship PSPW back on track
James Wilson, please make an appearance!!!!
Yes indeed, us irresponsibly invested longs
Are swimming in a sea, a blood red sea!!!!
