dodo,
did you confirm to chef Z if we indeeed bought pasta italiana or not?
perhaps that 12mil share that IVFH issued on the last filing could very well used to bought the pasta or it could be those shares that mm's are currently selling at this time..hmmmm
lakingsphan
is this the website that a shareholder made or is it the company?
the company needs to update this website because it has an error:
the word 'aquisition' on the upper left hand is mispelled: should be acquisition..lol

i wish i knew that you are KEVIN...LOL..do you even own a share of ACMG? as far as i know, you dont..i told you to buy in when it was at .08 because thats when i first got in, and then i added some more at .18 and also at .13..so now i am losing my azz too..
as far as the deleted message goes, i still have those stocks that you have mention except Sttk..the only stock that i made money is NDOL..
ACMG is a good stock for the long haul..like any other companies that are starting up, it will take time before it comes into fruition, but as i see it, things are progressing according to their prs..
i dont know you but are you in the tko yahoo board? if you are that was me..i am still in for a long haul..i am losing money here too..
is stocklemon following this stock? tell me something that i dont know or do you work for them?
hey dollar and a dream,
welcome to our party and hope you enjoy your stay!!!!hope your dollar and a dream will come true faster than you think and IVFH is definitely your ride!!! lol
good luck to you!!!
lakingsphan
sometimes,
what do you mean? i am still long here and holding for 2-3 years
thanks!
lakingsphan
hey guys,
if indeed this is a scam, do the ndol investors who lose money will get their money back if they pursuit a lawsuit and win the case?
and how about those guys that made money like myself will we give it back the money that we made?
just a rumble thoughts...
good luck all and thanks!!
lakingsphan
REconsultant,
how can we update or improve our mapsite to include a non us resident..i've noticed that quite a few investors for xsnx...btw, everyday i give those guys from raging bull an update on how our community doing..thanks!!
lakingsphan
dodo,
did you ask if we have new contracts or customer that we are unaware of?
goinlong,
you have to up it up a little bit to get filled otherwise the mm's wouldn't do it..they know something is good happening behind that close door about this company..
good luck to you!!
lakingsphan
1mission, i'm glad the shares that i have here is a free shares else my big ballz will be shrinking..lol
good luck to you
is there any longs left with this company besides me? damn!! the pps just keep drifting down..we could certainly use a little help..
davidam,
thanks for the private mail..sorry i couldn't reply it back on private mail because i am not an ihub subscriber..
you got it!! i promise i wont..
lakingsphan
dodo, add this to the lists..
5) how about new contracts that we are unaware of..
6) do we have a new customer that we are unaware of..
7) what is the real reason why we issued 10-12mil shares on the filings..is it for the pasta acquisition or is it for something else..
thats all i can think of right now..
lakingsphan
davidam,
if chef z or the rest of gangs talk or release prs, i would have more shares than what i have now like the way you were doing..is just hard for me to add because their silence traitment even though i know that business is booming..
IMO, that otc move is due in no time and i am looking forward for this move next week..and i think after we have that move the prs should start pouring like nutz and should be able to attract more investors..
I CAN FEEL THAT 'THE WAVE OF MONEY' IS COMING TOWARDS HERE!!!
LAKINGSPHAN
what is going on here? this one just slowly going to the *chitter* and eating all us alive...i'll bet even ALEX can't do anything about it..
dodo,
dont take it the wrong way but i was just replying to eye's message..i am not pumping nor have position on these stocks..
agreed that we should stick with IVFH topic only..
but hey, dont worry i'll have all the time to wait for IVFH to take off and i will consider my position as an investment...lol
lakingsphan
you said that my statement is baloney but atleast i gave you my honest answer....btw they are tanking down...i hope you did not sold your shares especially your chys..this is the only one i agreed on..
good luck to you too!!!
dodo,
great job!!!! you are not that bad afterall..lol
you are right, i am just making things up..i was just refering to those prices when you are pumping it..pinkies and otc are nothing but a pump and dump...i don't read their graph on these stocks because i have no interest on them except CHYS which i told you at the rb..they are down again...i like CHYS because of HOM..i am waiting until it hit the bottom from that great run recently and maybe i'll make my move..
gotcha rob,
i dont follow these stocks, but i know, you know better than i am..i have 15grand sitting on my broker..maybe i will look into it...i just thought that it was just another pump and dump but will see how it reacts tomorrow or fridays trading...i will do some dd and if i am interested, i will probably make my move on friday when everyone's selling..
btw is that one of their plan to go to NASDAQ? if so, is there any time frame when they'll make the move?
good luck to you!!!
lakingsphan
hey rob,
you are right about pxhb...is just that when eye_for_eye mentioned all these 3 stocks, tiv started creeping up then went back down to where it was pumped..then after that chys started creeping up then today starts to go down ...i'll bet it will go back down to the $6s..so now my guess is that i should be loading up pxhb cuz its their turn to creep up for another $3-$4 or so...
btw, i was just refering to that date when all the 3 stocks were mentioned..thats all..its not like i was looking back at a 6months run or something..
lakingsphan
give us some gnarly ass kicking update
good to hear that neg.. hope they are all true..
dodo,
see what happens if you quit whining..people listens and you will see your IVFH on the green side..lol...just chill and let it ride this if you really believe and it will come through..like chefz says 'patient'..
lakingsphan
dodo,
common!! why do you keep mentioning about NDOL...I get so defensive when it comes to NDOL..like i said before, i doubled my $4,000 and still have 10,000 free shares...one of my favorite stock of this year because it made me quick money...
my advice is that you should put a disclaimer when mentioning NDOL like 'no offense lakingsphan' or something..lol..i am really serious...
lakingsphan
dodo,
did you call back this afternoon? you said you were going to follow up...
hey some dough,
did you just re-post this from your last post? or am i seeing double..lol
that was kewl REconsultant1
hey walker,
I guess, not only that we are being shorted but this concern ( the financing )also one of the reason why our pps is not moving up.....or could it be that investors are waiting to see if the NDOL merger is for real or not..I said that because ACMG & AURC are somehow have a connection with NDOL..
i guess if our future financier no longer midland baring then maybe ACMG pps have a chance to move up..that would be a positive thing..don't you think? all in my humble opinion!!!!
lakingsphan
hey davidam, rob or dodo..
what is chef's email address..is it the email address from their website or a different one? reason being is that i emailed them friday or saturday but no response from them...
thanks!!
lakingshan
IVFH'S CANDLE STICKS!!!
Last friday's trade formed a White Marubozu. ( i dont know if this is correct, i am still learning..lol )
The last two candlesticks formed a Bullish Engulfing Pattern . This is a bullish reversal pattern that marks a potential change in trend. However, its reliability is not very high and it requires confirmation..
HERE'S WHAT WE LOOK FOR TOMORROWS TRADING!!!WE NEED ATLEAST ONE OF THE TWO ( BELOW ) TO CONFIRM THAT WE HAVE INDEED A BULLISH STOCK..
FIRST, The market opens with an upward gap, signaling a bullish sentiment in the first case. The benchmark will be the opening price.. Any white candlestick with an upward gap is a valid confirmation criterion.
In the second case, the market opens at a level, equal to or below the previous day’s close. The benchmark is that closing price. If prices during the session stay over the benchmark you better hold onto for a long haul... Any white candlestick closing above the previous close confirms the bullishness of IVFH..
HAVE A BULLISH DAY TOMORROW!!!
LAKINGSPHAN!!
hey robsaia,
that's exactly what i had in mind except that my assumption was at .03 a share.....my guess is at .03 because thats where IVFH price during those transaction.....it makes sense, doesn't it?
lakingsphan
here's a breif summary of IVFH...scroll down at the bottom and notice the candle and it is also in CAPS!!!that's right we will have an uptrend on monday!!

Depending on what you read, ethanol cars are the only hope for the automotive industry, an expensive and inadequate technology, or a little of both.
There is no question that renewable energy is an extremely important topic these days, especially with talk of oil going as high as $100 a barrel. Nearly everyone wants a means to wean the world off of its gasoline addiction at a time when it is not only a threat to global security but also to the environment. The problem is that the alternatives are either unproven, inadequate, or prohibitively expensive. And in some ways, ethanol may be all three. While there is no question that ethanol works as a gasoline substitute, it is not the silver bullet that many people wish it to be.
While E10 is the most common ethanol-based fuel, E85, a blend of 85% ethanol and 15% gasoline, has a higher octane rating and burns cleaner. Today many vehicles can burn E10, which has a lower ratio of ethanol to gasoline, but only E85-capable "flex fuel" vehicles -- that burn either E85 or gas -- can run on the cleaner fuel mixture. See a complete list of all the E85-compatible cars on the market in the U.S.
DOLLAR DIFFERENCE
There are a few drawbacks to E85. It has a lower energy content that leads to lower fuel economy and vehicle driving range. Until recently this lower fuel economy posed less of a concern because the cost of E85 was around 30% less than a gallon of gasoline. But as demand for E85 has surged, so have prices. Despite stepped-up production by companies such as Archer Daniels Midland (ADM), this increased demand, plus a tariff on imported ethanol, which adds 54 cents to the cost of a gallon, makes it more expensive than gasoline.

Moreover, since it is less efficient, drivers have to spend even more. At today's prices it would cost around $3,368 per year to run a Dodge Ram 1500 pickup on regular gas and $3,615 on E85.
And there is a long way to go before domestic production will be able to play a meaningful role. Today there are only 93 ethanol plants in the U.S., with an additional 24 under construction. Production will increase to 5 billion gallons by the end of the year. While that sounds like a lot, consider that the average annual consumption of gasoline is 140 billion gallons per year.
MIRROR IMAGE
Further frustrating the uptake of ethanol is the fact that fewer than 1,000 of the more than 176,000 fueling stations in the U.S. sell it. Not surprisingly, most of them are located in farm states, such as Illinois and Minnesota, that are among the largest producers.
From BusinessWeek
Still, today more than 5 million vehicles in the U.S. can run on E85, and the auto makers are making a lot of noise about ramping up production of flex fuel vehicles. Unlike some hybrids and other alternate fuel vehicles, they are identical to regular cars, SUVs and trucks. Better still, unlike hybrids, E85-capable vehicles don't cost more to buy.
There is no denying the appeal of ethanol, especially in terms of its potential. In various countries around the world, notably Brazil and Sweden, it is in common use. In the U.S. currently there are 26 car and truck models available that can run on ethanol, although they are not available in every state.
good luck all!!

Ethanol: Truth and Lies
Ten questions -- and answers -- about the fuel that's supposed to save the economy
By ALEX HALPERIN
Learn more about E85 here
With high gas prices making alternative fuels increasingly attractive, no alternative fuel has received as much attention as ethanol. Some hail the fuel, which can be derived from plants including corn, wheat, barley and sugarcane, as a savior of American energy policy, while others see it as a fad popularized by its heavily subsidized corporate backers.
The reality is complex. Though still a tiny industry compared to gas, ethanol could become a more prominent part of the U.S. and world fuel supply in coming years.
Still, as ethanol's public profile rises, there's plenty of misinformation swirling around and a host of questions. What exactly is ethanol? How is it made and used? And is it really a viable alternative to gas? Here's what you need to know now.
What exactly is ethanol?
The fuel is derived from plants through a fairly straightforward process. In one common method Corn, is first ground into a fine powder, mixed with water, and then heated. An enzyme is then added to convert the mixture into sugars before yeast is added to ferment it. The resulting liquid, called "beer," is about 10% alcohol. A distillation process then separates the alcohol from the rest of the mixture before the remaining water is removed. The result is essentially pure alcohol. A small amount of gas is added to render the liquid undrinkable. Then the fuel can be used by itself or as a supplement to gasoline to power cars.
Ethanol has three advantages, at least in theory: It's renewable, it can be domestically produced, and it burns cleaner than gas. The world's largest producers of ethanol are the U.S., which makes it primarily from corn, and Brazil, which mashes the stuff out of sugarcane.

Easing Oil Dependence
Beyond high gas prices, why is everyone talking about ethanol?
It's becoming an increasingly important part of the fuel supply, and has the potential to become still more crucial. President George W. Bush and members of Congress have expressed support for ethanol use. And this spring, refiners in parts of Texas and the Northeast have been replacing a gasoline additive called MTBE (for methyl tertiary-butyl ether) with ethanol. MTBE, a chemical used to oxygenate fuel, can contaminate drinking water. And Ethanol which does not present the same danger, can serve the same purpose in fuel.
That's not all. The 2005 energy bill requires that the U.S. boost its ethanol production to 7.5 billion gallons by 2012, up from about 4 billion in 2005. This sounds like a whole lot of ethanol, but bear in mind, last year the U.S. slurped up almost 140 billion gallons of gas.
Are there any problems with ethanol?
Oh, yes. Ethanol can't travel in pipelines along with gasoline, because it picks up excess water and impurities. As a result, ethanol needs to be transported by trucks, trains, or barges, which is more expensive and complicated than sending it down a pipeline. As refiners switched to ethanol this spring, the change in transport needs has likely contributed to the rise in gas prices. Some experts argue that the U. S. doesn't have adequate infrastructure for wide ethanol use.
Also, ethanol contains less energy than gas. That means drivers have to make more frequent trips to the pump.
Doesn't producing ethanol on a large scale use a great deal of energy?
Yes. Some ethanol skeptics have even argued that the process involved in growing grain and then transforming it into ethanol requires more energy from fossil fuels than ethanol generates. In other words, they say the whole movement is a farce.
There's no absolute consensus in the scientific community, but that argument is losing strength. Michael Wang, a scientist at the Energy Dept.-funded Argonne National Laboratory for Transportation Research, says "The energy used for each unit of ethanol produced has been reduced by about half [since 1980]." Now, Wang says, the delivery of 1 million British thermal units (BTUs) of ethanol uses 0.74 million BTUs of fossil fuels. (That does not include the solar energy -- the sun shining -- used in growing corn.) By contrast, he finds that the delivery of 1 million BTUs of gasoline requires 1.23 million BTU of fossil fuels.
Producing ethanol could get more efficient soon as new technologies help farmers get more corn per acre of land and allow ethanol producers to get more of the fuel from the same amount of corn. The companies developing new corn technologies include chemical giant Dupont and Monsanto, which sells genetically modified seeds as well as chemicals for protecting crops.
So where can I find ethanol?
There's a good chance you're using it already. It's mixed into gas in many regions of the country including the corn-belt Midwest, and states like California and New York which had already banned MTBE. The regions making the transition this spring are the Northeast and parts of Texas.
Cars in the U.S. can normally drive on E10, a mixture of 10% ethanol and 90% gasoline, that is sometimes called gasohol. It's how Americans usually take their ethanol. Relatively few cars available here are "flex-fuel," meaning that they can run on much higher concentrations of ethanol. The fuel E85, which is 85% ethanol, is sold at some gas stations concentrated in the Midwest.
Is ethanol cheaper than gas?
Surprise, surprise, it isn't. The move this spring by more regions to use ethanol means that demand has spiked, driving up prices. On Monday, the New York harbor price was around $3 per gallon compared with about $2.28 for gasoline (before being mixed with ethanol). In other words, for now ethanol is helping to increase prices at the pump, not to push them down.
So ethanol production and distribution are also controlled by market forces, right? Only to a certain degree. In addition to heavily subsidizing the ethanol produced domestically, the U.S. government levies a 54 cent per gallon tariff on imports from other countries, such as Brazil, a lower-cost producer. This, of course, discourages the U.S. from importing cheaper ethanol.
Why not eliminate the tariffs?
Well, the idea behind the tariffs is to foster domestic production of ethanol. But amid the ongoing furor over high gas prices the idea of repealing the levy has gained momentum in Washington. Though it would probably annoy ethanol producers like agricultural giant Archer Daniels Midland, removing the tariffs could have some benefits. It would help ease price pressures and would likely encourage Brazil to boost its ethanol production. However, it's probably not a short-term solution.
Brazil is undergoing an ethanol revolution far more drastic than that in the U.S. Flex-fuel cars which can run solely on ethanol are widely available and the ethanol supply is short enough that the government recently reduced the mandatory ethanol content in gasoline from 25% to 20%.
From BusinessWeek
"Brazil is the model" for how ethanol can be brought into use, wrote Citigroup analyst P. J. Juvekar in a recent report. But while buying ethanol from Brazil could be useful in the future, it's not going to reduce the pain of a road trip this summer.
What companies stand to benefit from increased ethanol use?
There is a crop of American ethanol producers. ADM is by far the largest, pumping out about one-quarter of the U.S. total. MGP Ingredients is one of the many smaller companies involved. Verasun Energy and Aventine Renewable Energy, two other producers of note, have recently filed to go public.
What can we expect to change in the future?
At present commercial corn-based ethanol comes from corn kernels. One of the more exciting ethanol prospects on the horizon is cellulosic ethanol, which can be made from a number of plant by-products, including cornstalks. Although it's unlikely to be commercially available for at least a few years, cellulosic ethanol eventually could help substantially reduce costs. In other words, your car in the future could run on the refuse of farms across the U.S.
GOOD LUCK ALL!!!

davidam,
as i told to robocop yesterday at the rb post#9281 and i nailed right, this usually means we will have another uptrend the next trading day however i don't know whats the 'T' all about..
the question now is, can we make a green two trading days in a row?
