chuck, looking at it objectively, yes, I agree, she is getting a raw deal, but........
Where's the cutoff line? Where does it stop being a "raw deal" and start being justice?
Would it be justified if they also busted all the other people who are playing insider tricks?
When the cops show up, there's usually one guy, standing there holding the bag of money while the others run away.
Martha is the bagholder.
About Nascar: I just went through a few dozen news stories about Nascar and could find nothing related to any court orders nor anything about a cease and disist order.
Where did that news originally come from?
Marie, she was never accepted on Wall St. by the major players, including the SEC.
They want her to leave their playground and go back to her little doodley-do cooking show and it looks like they will get their way, because that's about all she'll have left..
Chuck, the Martha Stewart deal has nothing to do with the crime or right vs. wrong.
She, as a woman, tried to buy her way into a good'ol Boys club and wasn't welcome, so they busted her.
Wise, re KDMV...more about...
I don't usually post paid promos on stocks, but this one came to me from FreeRealTime.com and is impressive.
I then looked at the chart and that's why I posted about it.
Here's the promo;
Religion is big business. Just ask Mel Gibson. His recently released film, "The Passion of Christ," has raked in more than $100 million within two weeks of hitting the theaters.
The Christian marketplace, from a retail perspective, is approximately $5 billion, with very few publicly traded entities cashing in.
What separates Kingdom Ventures, Inc. from the rest of the pack is their ability to tap into the needs, rather than the wants of this burgeoning sector. Their success is evident in their numbers. For the quarter ending Oct. 31, 2003, the Company's revenues totaled $4,787,714, up from $1,501,321 in the previous quarter.
Annual revenue for FY 2002 increased 72% to $3.2 million over the previous year. Projected revenue for FY 2003 is $10 million on a proforma basis with positive operational earnings. The Company has projected revenues exceeding $20 million for FY 2004.
Company Profile
Kingdom Ventures, Inc. exists to provide media, product and educational resources to people of faith to assist in personal, church and ministry growth and to demonstrate the Good News of God's Word as proclaimed in the Bible, both through uplifting faith and humanitarian practice. Over the last 12 months, the Company has assembled the key delivery mechanisms and management team to fulfill this vision and is beginning to execute their business strategy.
........................................................................................................................................................
Potential and Overview
Founded in 1999 as Legends of Faith, Inc., the publicly traded entity now known as Kingdom Ventures, Inc. (OTCBB:KDMV) began modestly- selling inspirational gifts in the form of Bible Character Bears. Soon thereafter, the company increased their marketing arsenal by selling jewelry, books, music and clothing.
During the last several quarters, the Company has ramped up their media and ministry strategy by consolidating their focus, and expanding the national reach and editorial format of Christian Times Today™, the Company's fully-owned Christian newspaper. Currently, Christian Times Today is distributed in more than 70 cities including parts of the Southwest, Southeast and Midwest, including cities like Chicago, Dallas, Nashville, St. Louis, Kansas City, Detroit and Orlando. "I estimate that our circulation will be over 500,000," said Jackson.
The Company has also maintained a tight focus on their JoBasic platform, an online shopping resource for a variety of products and services, as well as an effective long-term residual income vehicle for Organizations with Cause and Account Managers.
.......................................................................................................................................................
Reasons To Consider This Stock
1. Proven Success: Since its inception in 1999, Kingdom Ventures, Inc. has seen considerable revenue and net income growth. For the quarter ending Oct. 31, 2003, the company's revenues totaled $4,787,714, up from $1,501,321 in the previous quarter.
2. Substantial Growth: The company's revenue for FY 2002 was approximately $3.2 million, an increase of 72% over the previous year. For FY 2003, projected revenue is $10 million on a proforma basis with positive operational earnings. Projected revenues for FY 2004 are estimated to exceed $20 million.
3. Media Network: The Company owns Christian Times, a monthly newspaper with a circulation of more than 500,000 in the U.S. The newspaper plans to expand to more than 100 regions in 2004/2005. Through their various media platforms including Iexalt.com, a Christian media/faith community network, and Christian Speakers and Artists, which provides nationally-renowned artists and speakers to churches and other non-profit organizations, KDMV is in an undeniable position to get their name out to the masses.
4. Cause Related Marketing: The term is defined as a relationship between a company and an image, product or service, and a charity or non-profit organization for mutual benefit. According to a recent study, nearly 88 % of consumers expressed a desire to see companies promote their good work with community causes. The study also suggested that more and more people are buying the Company behind the products. KDMV fits nicely in this mold as their altruism, motives, and business plan are substantive, sound, and unrelenting.
5. Consolidated Focus : Since our last Special Situation Report on Kingdom Ventures, the company has stripped down its capabilities, selling three of its operating units (Xtreme Notebooks, Christian Speakers & Artists Agency and Sierra Candles). The Company has re-ignited its focus on expanding the reach of Christian Times Today™ and establishing JoBasic as the premier vehicle for faith-based organizations looking for fund raising opportunities.
6. Thriving Marketplace: There are approximately 400,000 Protestant churches in the United States alone with limited organic resources to grow their financial and leadership resources to in turn grow their ministries. KDMV plans to partner with local churches, both large and small, to aid in their efforts to increase their resources. From a retail perspective, more than $5 billion was spent annually on religious and inspirational products. Kingdom Ventures seeks to not only have a presence in this market, but rather to become a staple in it.
7. Answers Critics: Instead of shying away from allegations that were made by several rogue internet watchdog groups, Gene Jackson answered the critics with facts and numbers. In a recent interview with WallSt.net, Jackson answered questions about an alleged SEC complaint, inflated target price, and share structure--ultimately vindicating himself and his company from these allegations.
.......................................................................................................................................................
Conclusions
If the recent release of The Passion of Christ is any indication of the buying power of the Christian Community, investors should realize that KDMV is poised to tackle this burgeoning marketplace. With more than 400,000 Protestant Churches in the U.S. alone, the Company has positioned itself to not only serve, but profit from their various initiatives. Management is sound, revenue growth is substantial, and the hunger for faith-based products and services has never been as large. Similar to our last two Special Situations (QLHC, and PCSV), KDMV operates in a thriving, under-serviced sector. Trading for roughly $0.25, timely investors could see sizable returns on their investment
linchuck, I saw your post abou OXFV......
Right now, it's in a serious nose dive with no support.
What happens in the next few days,(weeks/months?), will depend on the news that comes out.
It's worth keeping an eye on........for the time being>

re: USGA...............
In the last three days, the CEO, John Robinson and the CFO(Secretary), Julie Seaman, have filed a total of 17 form 4s, mostly to show shares disposed of.(many millions)
These filings cover stock sold for a period of over a year, but most have been in the last few months.
In mid Nov, 03 the PPS started running from about .20 to peak around 3.00 in late Jan..........to the currant .73
It appears that John and Julie have been very busy making money and have played a considerable role in the recent drop in the PPS, sometimes acquiring and selling shares on the same day.
If the trend and/or dumping continues, the PPS should drop back down to the .20 level or less.
Question: Doesn't a form 4 have to be filed in a timely manner?
One or two of these filings go back to 02.
ERTH loses NASDAQ listing............
SANTA BARBARA, Calif., Mar 5, 2004 (BUSINESS WIRE) --
EarthShell Corporation (NASDAQ:ERTH), innovators of food service packaging designed with the environment in mind, announced today that effective Monday, March 8, 2004, its common stock will no longer be carried on Nasdaq's SmallCap Market, but will be eligible for immediate and continued quotation on the OTC Bulletin Board under the symbol ERTH. As previously reported, in early January the Company was notified that its securities were subject to delisting because the Company's market capitalization was less than $35 million as required by Nasdaq SmallCap Market. Last month, Company management met with Nasdaq's Listing Qualifications Panel to review the delisting determination. According to the notification received yesterday by the Company, the panel determined not to grant the Company further exception to the $35 million market value requirement for continued listing. This action put the Company in non-compliance with its covenants under the Company's outstanding debentures. Management is currently negotiating with its debenture holders for appropriate relief or waiver of this covenant. These negotiations are part of a capital restructuring that senior management has underway.
EarthShell Corporation is a development stage company engaged in the licensing and commercialization of proprietary composite material technology for the manufacture of foodservice disposable packaging, including cups, plates, bowls, hinged-lid containers, and sandwich wraps. In addition to certain environmental characteristics, EarthShell Packaging is designed to be cost and performance competitive compared to other foodservice packaging materials.

Interesting read on USXP......
There are a whole lot of companies involved in this can of worms.....
StockGate: Turnabout as Universal Express Sues SEC for Harrassment
Mar 5, 2004 (financialwire.net via COMTEX) -- (FinancialWire) The U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission is being sued in the U.S. District Court, Southern District of Florida, for harassment and intimidation by Universal Express, Inc. (OTCBB: USXP), in part rising out of athe SEC's investigation into claims that Universal Express has been a victim off naked short selling. As of this writing, the company has not disclosed in a press release or other filing that it has filed.
Recently, leading market makers named in various lawsuits and other actions, including Ameritrade Holding Corp. (NASDAQ:AMTD), Deutsche Bank AG (NYSE: DB), and ETrade Group, Inc. (NYSE: ET) were given a "reprieve" until April 1 to comply with new short-selling market regulations imposed by the NASD after the SEC had "sat on" the NASD request to plug material loopholes for almost 2-1/2 years.
According to a non-affiliated source that provided the document to FinancialWire, the filing occurred March 3. The lawsuit infers that SEC subpoenas issued to funding and acquisition targets have spooked and interfered with the company's ability to raise capital and to complete acquisitions, such as that of North American Airlines.
It also states that USXP and its executives have been served with what appears to have been dozens of subpoenas, over many months, asking for virtually every document in the company's possession. The lawsuit notes that the company had complied with all of them, despite due dates often as short as two days, but that the SEC appears bent on "harassing" the company with ever increasing demands.
The reason given for delaying the implementation of the "loophole" close was that many NASD members, most of whom have argued in the past that their trading systems do not allow for "naked" short selling, "need to make significant technological changes to
their systems to comply with the new requirements." This could easily become fodder for the many lawsuits that have been filed in this long-standing national scandal called StockGate.
For some in the industry, the fact that the new date coincides with "April Fool" was not lost.
The NASD noticed its members that it is "delaying the effective date of amendments to Rule 3370 (Prompt
Receipt and Delivery of Securities-the "Affirmative Determination" Rule) approved by the SEC in November 2003,1 until April 1, 2004.
"The amendments expand the scope of the affirmative determination requirements to include orders received from broker/dealers that are not members of NASD ("non-member broker/dealers"). The effective date of the amendments originally was March 5, 2004," said the notice.
The proposed and now delayed rule is on the web at www.nasdr.com/2610_2004.asp#04-03
The rule itself, while welcomed by small companies and their shareholders in the U.S., nevertheless raised an outcry because the NASD's request to put it into effect had set on a shelf at the SEC since 2001.
Meanwhile, CBS Marketwatch, a venture between Marketwatch (NASDAQ: MKTW) and Viacom's (NYSE: V) CBS unit, has suggested that victims of securities fraud may be able to file for theft claims on tax returns instead of capital losses.
The scandal has embroiled hundreds of companies and dozens of brokers and marketmakers, in a web of internaitional intrigue, manipulative short-selling and cross-border accusations and denials.
Comments on Regulation SHO ended January 5, and may be viewed at www.sec.gov/rules/proposed/s72303.shtml .
Some 122 companies, including 13 brokers, such as FleetBoston (NYSE: FBF), Goldman, Sachs & Co. (NYSE: GS), H. Myerson & Co., Inc. (NASDAQ:MHMY), Olde / H&R Block (NYSE: HRB), Charles Schwab (NYSE: SCH), Toronto-Dominion's (NYSE: TD), TD Waterhouse Group and vFinance, Inc. (OTCBB: VFIN). A.G. Edwards at, Inc. (NYSE: AGE), Ameritrade Holding Corp. (NASDAQ:AMTD), Deutsche Bank AG (NYSE: DB), and ETrade Group, Inc. (NYSE: ET), have been embroiled for over a year in a raging controversy
The remaining 109 companies among the 122 named to date have issued press releases or been named in the media as having been victimized, or as taking various actions, either alone or in concert with other companies, to oppose manipulative trading in the form of illegal naked short selling. The actions have ranged from lawsuits to withdrawals and threatened withdrawals from the electronic trading system managed by the Depository Trust & Clearing Corp., to withdrawals from toxic financings, to the issuance of dividends or name changes designed to squeeze manipulators, to joining associations or networks or to contacting regulatory authorities to provide documentation of abuses or otherwise complain.

REVA, Inc. Signs Letter of Intent to Acquire Multimedia Technology Group
via COMTEX
March 3, 2004
ROANOKE, Texas, Mar 3, 2004 (BUSINESS WIRE) --
REVA, Inc. (OTCBB:RVIA) announced today that it has signed a letter of intent to acquire Multimedia Technology Group (MMITG), a Texas-based company specializing in video and audio compression solutions. REVA, Inc. is a publicly traded company trading on the OTC Bulletin Board with the symbol RVIA.
Based upon preliminary negotiations, REVA intends to acquire MMITG for cash, restricted stock and other considerations. Pursuant to the letter of intent, MMITG would become a technical division of REVA, Inc., to develop and manufacture a continuing stream of products to attempt to enhance the offerings of its wireless Internet services. MMITG specializes in wavelet image compression, progressive tunneling, non-uniform compression, and Lightning Strike Binary Compression. MMITG would be relocated to REVA's corporate headquarters in Roanoke, Texas.
With its proprietary wavelet compression system and its Lightening Strike software, MMITG solves the issue of massive bandwidth consumption by streaming 300:1 compressed video at 18 - 24 frames per second. This would enable REVA to offer video-on-demand products to its current wireless customer base.
In addition, MMITG has developed the Digital Video Recorder (DVR), an observational digital recorder that combines the newest technologies to provide the latest in video storage, quality and images per second. This unit would be used primarily with REVA's existing core technologies for home and business security systems and home health monitoring systems to be offered through REVA's wireless infrastructure.
REVA began shifting its focus to the wireless Internet market in 2003, with its intended acquisition of BOLD Communications and subsequent acquisition of Regional Wireless Networks. 'With this acquisition we continue to fulfill the technology objectives that will build our revenue base,'commented James E. Ontiveros, CEO and President of REVA, Inc. 'MMITG would complete our technology portfolio and provide us a unique marketing position to appeal to customer needs and provide solutions not currently offered by our competitors.'
Paul Fisher, Ph.D., is owner and founder of MMITG. Dr. Fisher, recently named CTO for REVA, is author of four books on compression technology and winner of the R.J. Reynolds Distinguished Professor of Computer Science Award at Winston-Salem University, where he is currently on staff. Dr. Fisher has produced over sixty publications on wavelet and compression technologies.
Dr. Fisher works with an international research staff and brings these scientists into the REVA fold. Staff members include Ming Wei, Ph.D., working with Lightning Strike technology and Hong Yang Chao, Ph.D., specializing in wavelet technology and new product implementation.
This transaction is subject to: 1. Completion of a definitive agreement and final terms. 2. Financing being arranged totaling approximately $100,000. 3. Audits of MMITG 4. Non-compete and employment agreements 5. Patents/technology due diligence.
CURRENT BUSINESS INFORMATION: REVA Inc. historically is a developer and manufacturer of Video Compression, Security & Surveillance, and TeleHealth systems. The Company provides wireless Internet services and designs and manufactures technology and products for the video communication market. The Company's remote video communication products can transmit (via compression) video, audio, and data over various communication media at speeds that far exceed those of its competitors.
Safe Harbor Act Notice: This release may contain forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties, including without limitation, acceptance of the company's products, increased levels of competition, product and technological changes, the company's dependence upon financing and third-party suppliers, and other risks detailed from time to time.

re PCOM..............
At .082 the PPS is up about 15% today.

PCOM news...............
CAMPBELL, Calif., Mar 1, 2004 /PRNewswire-FirstCall via COMTEX/ --
P-Com, Inc. (OTC Bulletin Board: PCOM), a worldwide provider of wireless telecom products and services, today announced that it has received a $2 million order for its advanced, point-to-point radios from a leading wireless telecom operator in Latin America.
The order is for P-Com's Encore Plus, a variable bandwidth, digital microwave radio that facilitates high-speed voice, data and video transmissions across a network.
'Encore Plus is an innovative, technically superior product that continues to be well-received in the marketplace,'said P-Com President and CEO Sam Smookler. 'We're pleased to be making progress in selling our products in Latin America, one of our target markets and one of the fastest growing telecom markets in the world today.'
The base Indoor Unit (IDU) for Encore Plus is the same for all bit rate options. The Outdoor Unit (ODU) follows the same configuration format as the IDU, automatically self-configuring itself to conform to the bit rate set by the IDU. Being able to provide different transmission options to the operator, Encore Plus allows simple and affordable network management.
By contrast, current PDH solutions offer either low capacity (less than or equal to 4xT1/E1) or high capacity (greater than 4xT1/E1) as separate hardware solutions. As throughput needs change, end users are thus forced to replace or upgrade hardware to accommodate the new requirements.
Also available in a protected configuration, Encore Plus can be controlled by P-Com's Link Manager or via SNMP. Encore Plus is fully compliant with ITU, ETSI, EN and FCC specifications.
About P-Com, Inc.
P-Com, Inc. develops, manufactures, and markets point-to-point, spread spectrum and point-to-multipoint, wireless access systems to the worldwide telecommunications market. P-Com broadband wireless access systems are designed to satisfy the high-speed, integrated network requirements of Internet access associated with Business to Business and E-Commerce business processes.

OT...or this?.......
Here's an interesting scientific fact:
The moon is moving away at a tiny, although measurable distance from the earth every year. If you do the math, you will clearly see that approximately 65 million years ago it was orbiting the earth at a distance of about 15 feet from the earth's surface.
This would definitely explain the death of the dinosaurs. ........at least the tallest ones, anyway.
OT..on a Sunday,,,how bout this?..........
When NASA first started sending up astronauts, they quickly discovered that ball-point pens
would not work in zero gravity.
To combat this problem, NASA scientists spent a decade and $12 million developing a pen that
writes in zero gravity, upside down, on almost any surface including glass and at temperatures
ranging from below freezing to over 300 C.
The Russians used a pencil.
secure, The "gut thing" in can relate to, but that's probably because I can describe it in one-sylable words.....LOL
Do you mean those promotional companies like The Subway?
If so, I guess their DD is as good as anyone's, but you have to know how they work.
I have a few little gut things right now and one big one, PTSC.
I keep mentioning this stock to people and no one seems to be impressed...........oh well.
This company is local to me and I've been watching it for about three years,(while it didn't do anything), and have even talked to them a few times.
Now, I'm convinced it's on the verge of a major breakout.
It may take six months or a year, depending on when they can settle their lawsuits, (they are the petitioner), but it's coming.

Up about 50% in the last three days and still looking very strong....
SWEB news..........more about...
I've been tracking this company for a couple of years. In the past year I took it off my radar screen because it seemed to have gotten stuck in the .30 area with no major announcements.
But, this news release is different. I find it particularly impressive that they say they have "no debt."
We are very pleased to announce that the company has achieved profitability. Three years ago we set a vision to license our financial content and software products and leave the consulting business behind. Since then we have continued to achieve milestone after milestone including 5 consecutive quarters of increasing revenue and gross profit. Today we achieved the most significant milestone of reaching profitability in the 4th quarter. We thank each of you for all your support over the past three years and look forward to meeting our goals and creating strong shareholder value in 2004.
Sincerely,
Stockgroup Investor Relations Team.

PCCL(PACC), 1:100 RS....PR after the fact....
Feb 25, 2004 9:02:00 AM
CHARLOTTE, N.C., Feb 25, 2004 /PRNewswire-FirstCall via COMTEX/ --
Pacel, Corp. (OTC Bulletin Board: PCCL) (formerly 'PACC'), announced today that in order to effectively execute its planned business strategies, it has initiated an equity restructuring plan. Effective February 24, 2004, holders of Pacel, Corp. common stock will exchange their shares in a 100 for 1 reverse split for shares of the newly restructured entity. The Company shares will now trade under the new ticker symbol PCCL and CUSIP number 69372L 60 3.
The Company is moving forward with this restructuring in light of several factors. As recently announced, a new management team has been appointed to execute the Company's continued penetration of the $45 billion Human Resources Outsourcing ('HRO') industry. Effective access to capital funding is key to the new management's continued execution of this strategy, and the restructuring gives the Company the ability to position itself for alternative capital initiatives.
The Company has moved forward in the HRO industry and with the appointment of its new management team, with direct experience in this industry, the Company still continues to refine its business execution strategy. After the completion of two acquisitions in 2003, the Company focused on integration and consolidation of locations and business activities, completing the final steps to that consolidation in December 2003 with the relocation of its corporate headquarters to Charlotte, North Carolina. The acquisition of existing Professional Employer Organizations ('PEO') for the purpose of building revenue is only one component of the Company's ongoing business strategy. Significant review of the business of the target PEO acquisition candidates, particularly as it relates to minimizing risk exposure, coordinating marketing focus, and leveraging management experience and geographic location, also plays an important role in the Company's evaluation of such acquisition targets. By paying rigorous attention to these factors, among others, the Company has significantly decreased the ready pool of acquisition candidates that are viable and worth pursuing, generating a savings of both time and resources for the Company. As a result, this selectivity has slowed the Company's previously announced plans of growth through acquisitions and has required a renewed focus on organic growth and the development of the tools, services and technologies necessary for such growth.
While the Company is actively evaluating possible acquisition candidates and anticipates the completion of such a transaction (or transactions) in 2004, management is also focusing its efforts on evaluating alternative funding vehicles, as well as building a comprehensive national marketing strategy, evaluating and installing technology-enabled client products and internal applications and reviewing its continued staffing needs, particularly at the managerial level.
Dave Calkins, Chairman of Pacel Corp., stated, '2003 proved to be a larger challenge than was anticipated in penetrating the HRO markets. The lack of viable acquisition candidates and access to sufficient levels of capital greatly slowed our previously announced plans. We will continue to move forward in 2004 to build a quality organization with the right tools, products and staff to be successful in the HRO market. Based on the recommendations of new management, with their intimate knowledge of the industry, the Company has tightened the requirements for potential acquisition candidates and continues to evaluate alternative sources of funding for these transactions. The Company is currently reviewing several acquisition candidates who meet the newly tightened requirements and this restructuring will provide the new management team with access to needed capital for the continued execution of the Company's business plan.'
The Company anticipates releasing its 2003 operating results on or about March 5, 2004.
About Pacel Corp. -- PCCL is a provider of Human Resources Outsourcing solutions to small and medium-sized businesses in the United States. The Company is currently pursuing the development of its HRO business through new accounts derived from strategic marketing initiatives and through the acquisition of other suitable HRO businesses.
The statements contained in this press release that are not historical facts are forward-looking statements that involve a number of risks and uncertainties. Therefore, the actual results of future events described in such forward-looking statements could differ materially from those stated in such forward-looking statements. Among the factors that could cause actual results to differ materially are: (i) regulatory and tax developments; (ii) the effectiveness of the Company's sales and marketing efforts; (iii) changes in the competitive environment of the industry; (iv) changes in general economic conditions; (v) changes in the Company's direct costs and operating expenses; (vi) the estimated costs and effectiveness of capital projects and investments in technology and infrastructure. (vii) Management's ability to effectively implement its business strategy. These factors are described in further detail in Core Solutions, Inc. filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

RVIA is taking a hit..Down from .10 to .08 and looking weak.
The chart shows support at .05, but............
This drop in price has been long expected and, IMO, is a post-RS delayed reaction.
If the PPS continues to drop, and especially if it breaks through the .05 support, I expect it to drop to a penny or less.
AQCI, at .005 is up 25%.....a play? (more about}
IMO, a good one for the radar screen for the next couple of days.
Today, AQCI moved to a resistance level at .005, but.....
The Bollinger Bands are starting to come together
The MACD lines are crossing to the upside
And accumulation has begun.
If the PPS breaks through .005 that will become a support level and the PPS could double to a penny.

Keep practicing Chuck. I'll let you know when you're up to speed....:)
Seriously, what happened?
Arctec, I'm just guessing, but it looks like WRTLQ won't come out of bankruptcy. Instead, it will disappear as a company and become part of ISG.
This is a buyout, not a merger.
ISG is assuumming all the liabilities,(debts), and making a cash payment to the company.
To me, that looks like all currant shareholders will be cashed out and the company will cease to exist.
But, again, your best bet is to contact ISG and it appears that Gregg Warren is the person to talk to.
good luck
Arctec, re WRTLQ..........
At this point, almost anything could happen. It all depends on what the acquiring company decides to do.
As a public company Weirton doesn't exist any more.
Yes, you can still buy the stock on the Pinks, but that's true of many companies that don't even exist any longer.
BEANQ comes to mind. They have been out of business for about five years, had sold all their assets to Proctor and Gambol(sic), about four years ago, and yet you can still buy their stock.
The Pinks are no-mans-land.....:)
If you need to know more, I would suggest contacting IR for ISG, (Ohio's International Steel Group Inc.). They have the hammer.
SSPC filed a DEFR14A....more about.....
Today's filing revises the DEF14A filed on 1/22.
It seems that the only changes are some of the dates for notification of shareholders....
The filing(s)are to notify shareholders of a shareholders meeting to be held on March 9, 04. Some of the changes to be voted on are;
Change from a Deleware Corporation to a Nevada Corporation..
Increase the AS to 500M
1:15 reverse split to take effect on March 15, 04, which would reduce the OS to about 14M
Today, the PPS doubled from .0015 to .003
Many of yesterday's gainers are taking a hit today..
PCOM has moved up a tad to .08 and SPWC is holding at .105.
That's a surprise to me because I expected to see SPWC around .14-.16 before the 20th. Oh well, there is still until the closing bell tomorrow to get into that deal.
USXP has moved up about 11% on today's news, which is also a little surprising.
The stock has proven it can move on news, but this PR and the 10Q aren't really all that good.
IMO, this is a good one to watch for big news.....
USXP is moving on news .071, up 15%...

Revenue for the second quarter of 2003 was $14.9 million, compared to $498,000 in the second quarter of 2002. The increase in revenue for the quarter reflects the acquisition of Sub-Contracting Concepts, Inc. (SCI), which the company acquired on December 1, 2003. Results include the operations of SCI only from December 1, 2003 through December 31, 2003, which contributed $13.8 million in revenue. The unaudited proforma net sales, as if the acquisition of SCI had occurred at the beginning of the three-month period, would have been $45.8 million, compared to $29.8 million in the same period last year. Net loss for the second quarter was $2.1 million, or $0.00 per diluted share, compared to a loss of $2.1 million or $0.01 per diluted share in the second quarter of 2002.
Revenue for the first half of fiscal 2004 was $15.1 million, compared to $1.7 million for the same period in fiscal 2002. The increase in revenue for the first half also reflects the acquisition of SCI.

Net loss for the first half of fiscal 2004 was $4.1 million, or $0.01 per diluted share, compared to a net loss of $3.3 million or $0.01 per diluted share for 2002.
Richard Altomare, president and chief executive officer, stated, 'During the second quarter, we achieved several important milestones. Foremost, we completed the acquisition of Sub-Contracting Concepts, Inc. The acquisition of SCI is accretive to earnings, will strengthen our luggage-delivery distribution system, and expand our association programs.

Today it closed at .04, a double from a month ago, and half of that gain was made in the last ten days.
This started with news a month ago and appears to have more to go.....
USXP just filed a NT 10Q. This should put off filing for at least two weeks
A few weeks ago someone was asking me about websites that offer news alerts.
If you set up a watchlist at Quicken.com you can enhance it to show prices carried out to as many as five decimal places.
Plus they have an alert program that notifies you for ANY unusual movement in a stock's PPS or volume percentage, even when you're not on the Quicken webpage.
IMO, a pretty handy tool.
The chart on HYTT looks VERY good!..eom
SHRN, at .0125 is up 20% on no news. The chart shows that it should be running flat, but it isn't.
Watch for a PR.
HYTT, at .027 up 45% may be running! eom
secure, re WLSF..........
JMHO, but if they had done this ten years ago the PPS would have flown. Now, I don't know.
Removing the carcinogens from smoking products has been a goal of almost all tobacco companies, but until now they haven't been able to achieve it.
The "good" stuff is nicotine..........and, IMO, rightly so.
Nicotine acts like a mild tranquilizer and tends to relax you.
The carcinogens, kind of like soot from a fireplace, are the bad stuff...:)
About Wall Street Capitol Funding, the outfit who put out this news.
They are about the same as The Subway.
Both companies solicit business by writing news releases for specific companies and are usually paid in stock.
If you notice their releases you will see that that go into detail on one company and put out little blurbs on three or four others.
The detailed info is the company who is paying them and the others are freebies.........kinda like a free sample to get you to buy a product.
They are hoping the other companies will pay them too and then they will put out detailed news on them also.
This doesn't mean they are lying, just that their reports will be a little prejudiced..........FWIW.
NNOS PR and welcome from new CEO.........
LAS VEGAS, Feb 18, 2004 (BUSINESS WIRE) --
NanoSignal Corp.'s (OTC BB: NNOS) newly appointed chief executive Scott A. Ervin took the occasion to summarize the following recent developments, and to extend a message of greeting to the company's shareholders and prospective investors.
First of all, the company's common shares now trade on three foreign exchanges in addition to the OTC Bulletin Board. NanoSignal is trading as NNOS.F on the Frankfurt (Germany) Exchange and NNOS.BE on the Berlin (Germany) Exchange; also as NNOS.DE on the European Xetra Exchange.
'I am most pleased to be on board and heading up the NanoSignal Corp. team and organization,'stated Ervin. 'We are now positioned to take this company to the next level, and the near-term developments are extremely promising, providing NanoSignal the opportunity to attract a much more significant following within the Wall Street community. The company should be able to gain additional exposure and support, based on fundamentals and real progress of its business plan, as we move forward.'
As previously referenced in a public statement, Ervin has enjoyed a most distinguished career in real estate management, investment banking, and mergers-acquisitions with numerous Fortune 500 companies, including the First Boston Corp., Fisher Brothers and Rockefeller Center Inc. In November 2003, Ervin became president and CEO of MicroBio-Medical Systems Inc.
To summarize recent developments, NanoSignal was pleased to recently announce a definitive agreement with Dr. Jeffery Taft, a veteran of the early days of the company when it was known as MicroSignal and based in Pennsylvania, to join NanoSignal Corp. as a technical and scientific consultant. With Taft's addition to the team, NanoSignal Corp. is ready to pursue new applications of its technology -- most notably early detection of stroke. Cerebral blood flow and coronary artery blood flow are potential areas that show great promise using NanoSignal's proprietary technology.
NanoSignal Corp. recently announced that it had entered into a consulting agreement with Al Noshirvani to develop sales and marketing of SLICES(TM). Noshirvani comes to NanoSignal with a wealth of sales and marketing experience, having been a sales professional in the medical equipment and health industries for more than 10 years. Noshirvani will help NanoSignal establish a national distribution network for SLICES(TM) and will implement a best business practices marketing program.
Incidentally, Noshirvani has scheduled a SLICES(TM) sales and marketing seminar for March 2004 in Las Vegas and further details will be announced when available.
NanoSignal announced recently that Felicia Browell has been hired to design a professional user manual for SLICES(TM). Browell will consult with Taft, Chris Puleo and Sherry Yavelak in accomplishing this project, and she will assist NanoSignal in creating comprehensive documentation that should make SLICES(TM) become recognized as the No. 1 leader in user-friendly software products for the MRI industry.
Ervin stated, 'The company is actively in negotiations with multiple investment banking firms to meet its anticipated funding needs for national and international sales and marketing for the 2004-2005 period. Further details on this subject will be announced when warranted, and I would suggest that shareholders remain supportive and patient as the company transitions to what the management team believes will be bigger and better days ahead for NanoSignal. We appreciate the loyalty expressed by so many of the company's shareholders in the past year.'
