The "transition period" is the time during which Huff "passes the baton" to Khoury, after which Khoury advances the ball down the field and Huff works on the sidelines (tech), doing what he does best, IMHO.

HealthSonix, Inc. (OTC: HSXI) (FRANKFURT: H7S) recently announced it has commenced a pilot study with patients currently enrolled in aquatic fitness classes who also experience pain associated with arthritis. Patients enrolled in the study were actively involved in recreational aqua-fit classes, but are obviously still in pain and suffering with lack of function. The participants are active and reasonably fit. The study is designed to measure the effectiveness of the AquaSonix Therapy compared to exercise alone, in reducing the pain and improving function. The trials will be conducted over an 8-week period. AquaSonix Therapy is a breakthrough medical treatment for people with pain, reduced mobility and diminishing flexibility. It's a therapeutic water program that combines sound pressure waves with individualized low impact exercises in warm water therapy pools. The proprietary sound pressure waves are believed to work by stimulating mechanoreceptors in the skin, which in turn communicate with the brain and block pain messages from getting through (gate control theory of pain); by creating an exercise effect in the muscles, which encourages the production and release of endorphins, the body's natural pain killers; and by increasing blood circulation.

GlobeTel Communications Corp. (OTC:GTEM) recently announced that Peter Khoury has been named interim Chief Executive Officer and a director, succeeding Timothy Huff, who resigned from both positions but remains with the Company through the transition period. Mr. Huff's talents will be focused on deploying the technology of GlobeTel in key deployments. In addition, the Company announced that Przemyslaw L. Kostro, former Chairman of GlobeTel Communications, returns to that position in the interim, succeeding J. Randolph Dumas. Independent directors Dorian Klein and Ambassador Ferdinando Salleo have also agreed to resign; their seats on the Board will be filled by Mr. Khoury and Mr. Kostro. Mr. Khoury stated, "I've been asked to come onboard during a difficult time in this Company's short history. I believe that Mr. Huff's aggregation of important technology and engineering expertise has given the Company a respectable base of intellectual property and talent. We are not starting from scratch, and there are key relationships the Company has built, but we have to have a better coordinated marketing plan, a more fluid flow of information from the business units to senior management, better adherence to schedules, and overall, a more unified sense of purpose as a company. We will work toward these objectives and implement the changes that are necessary to build a stronger, tighter organization that's able to compete in the global communications marketplace." Peter Khoury is the founding partner and former CEO of International Consulting Services, a global telecommunications practice focused on assisting companies with entering and effectively competing in an aggressive communications market. Mr. Khoury oversaw ICS's global operations and its business development practices. After graduating from the University of Sydney with an Honours degree in Chemical Engineering, Mr. Khoury obtained additional degrees in Computer Science and Business Administration. His career began as a Systems Engineer at IBM. He later joined companies Andersen Consulting and Digital Equipment, where he managed key assignments in the telecommunications, finance and insurance sectors in Singapore, Hong Kong, Japan, Australia and New Zealand. Przemyslaw L. Kostro was first elected to the Company's Board of Directors in November 2001. From November 2001 to April 2002, he also served as the Chief Executive Officer of the Company prior to Mr. Huff's appointment. For the past six years, Mr. Kostro has been engaged in international business, and has been providing professional and consulting services to several public and private entities. He also currently serves as Chairman of Wafao S.A., a Polish software company, and as a director of Caterham Financial Management, a Malaysian company. Mr. Kostro stated, "There's no sense denying the Company is in quite a different situation than it was when I left last November. Today's GlobeTel has much work to do to restore confidence among our shareholders. It's counterproductive to assign blame to any one entity or person or event for the current state of the Company's stock price and low morale among our investor base. Coming back into the role as interim Chairman during this challenging time will mean I will focus on immediate opportunities and working with Senior Management on restructuring the Company in a way that best fits our resources and technologies. I will also focus in the next week on securing the necessary funding to underpin our plans to restructure the Company and complete key projects already underway. Given the nature of the situation, we will be communicating with our shareholders over the next several days and weeks as these changes take place."

A Golden Opportunity for WiMAX
By Bob Wallace
Posted on: 10/12/2006
In further proof of the technology’s traction outside the United States, Russia’s Golden Telecom Inc. announced plans to conduct a field trial of mobile WiMAX in Moscow as part of a longer-term plan to provide citizens and businesses with citywide access to high-speed services.
Golden Telecom, which has a presence in 20 cities across Russia, will evaluate mobile WiMAX systems from Nortel. The trial is due to be completed by the end of the year, according to a spokesman for the vendor.
The Golden Telecom trial will provide a connection speed range of between 1mbps and 25mbps per user. The operator chose the Nortel system in part because it uses MIMO antenna technology that’s capable of making the most efficient use of available spectrum.
“Moscow users are extremely sophisticated and will welcome the opportunity to use high-bandwidth services and applications wherever they roam,” said Dmitry Bragin, vice president at Golden Telecom, in a statement.
While mobile operators in the United States grapple with the issue, and potential expense, of upgrading existing base stations (BTS) to support WiMAX versus buying brand new ones, operators in emerging markets aren’t as concerned given the preponderance of terrestrial and satellite networks.
Mobile WiMAX is viewed as a means to serve metro areas efficiently, such as the Russian capitol where the population density of more than 9,000 per square kilometer justifies the installation of WiMAX BTSs and equipment with each BTS potentially serving hundreds of users or more.
“Emerging markets such as Russia are where all the action is for mobile WiMAX, where broadband access is scarce and it makes solid business sense to leapfrog terrestrial networks to high-speed wireless systems,” said John Mansell, senior analyst with Kagan Research in Great Falls, Va.
It is, however, hard to estimate when Golden Telecom would be prepared to begin providing commercial service using mobile WiMAX technology, said Mansell. “In the U.S., trials tend to take six months to a year, or longer, depending on whether they’re focused on the technology or on its marketing.”
Golden Telecom is a facilities-based provider of telecom and Internet services in major population areas throughout Russia and other countries of the Commonwealth of Independent States. It offers services via an overlay network in cities including Kiev, Moscow, Nizhiny, Novgorod, Samara and St. Petersburg, to others via intercity fiber and satellite-based networks through a combined 287 access points.
“Offering a true broadband mobile experience in developing countries requires a very large network footprint,” said Monica Paolini of Senza Fili Consulting LLC, in Sammamish, Wash. That, she added, requires operators to focus on the different profiles of the business market, which offers higher profits, and of the residential markets, which promise higher revenue.
Operators in emerging markets such as Russia also must plan to use spectrum for backhaul purposes as their in-ground networks often are less robust bandwidth-wise than in the United States. Mobile operators here already are moving from T-1 and E-1 leased-line links to gigabit Ethernet landline connections, and high-speed wireless spectrum, to optimize performance and reduce operational costs in backhaul applications.
The Yankee Group has estimated that leased-line infrastructure represents between 6 percent and 12 percent of a typical service provider’s operational expenditures. Globally, the research and consulting firm claims this accounts for $22 billion in operational expenditures for wireless service providers.
Service providers here and abroad, including Sprint Nextel Corp., according to Mansell, also are paying close attention to WiMAX technology as a potentially efficient answer for wireless backhaul. The list of vendors already includes Alvarion, Aperto, Airspan, Cambridge, Motorola, Navini, Proxim and Redline.

WiMAX Forum Discusses Mobile WiMAX Coming Into Focus
By Tara Seals
Posted on: 10/12/2006
The mobile industry has a vision of delivering 4G services — consisting of personal broadband and a bubble of applications and content that a person carries around with them. Many players — including Sprint Nextel Corp. — have fingered the 802.16e mobile WiMAX standard as the likeliest basis to enable that vision.
The 802.16e version of WiMAX can offer both fixed and mobile access over the same infrastructure, opening the way for a new personal broadband service that gives users continuous broadband Internet access at home, at work and while they are on the move. Today, WiMAX Forum President and Chairman Ron Resnick will deliver a keynote address highlighting this capability, along with the many opportunities these services offer. At the same time, providers face challenges in accessing spectrum and educating subscribers, he noted; thus, his address will cover all sides of the issue for the mobile WiMAX ecosystem.
The first certified mobile WiMAX products are expected to be introduced into the market at the end of 2006 or in the first quarter of 2007 and will be followed in the second half of the year by equipment with multiple advanced antenna capabilities — MIMO and beamforming — for higher throughput and capacity, according to the WiMAX Forum. Widespread deployment could begin as early as next year, it says.
By 2010, there will be 15.4 million WiMAX subscribers worldwide, generating more than $16 billion in service revenue, according to Senza Fili Consulting. Of that, 57 percent of WiMAX subscribers will be using 802.16e.
According to a WiMAX Forum white paper, among the broad mix of service providers trialing or committed to deploying mobile WiMAX are wireline incumbents, 3G and 2G mobile operators, DSL and cable modem operators, CLECs, WISPs, greenfield operators and MVNOs. In addition, mobile WiMAX modules will be embedded into many data, consumer electronic and voice devices, including notebooks, PDAs, gaming consoles, MP3 players, cellular phones and smartphones, as well as devices for vertical applications, like CCTV cameras and in-vehicle subscriber stations.
However, mobile operators with 3G networks will not be the first to adopt WiMAX, according to Monica Paolini at Senza Fili. “New and established service providers that are eager to enter the mobility and portability market, but do not have cellular spectrum, will drive WiMAX adoption,” she says.
In addition to his WiMAX Forum duties, Resnick is director of industry programs for Intel Corp.’s Broadband Wireless Division. In June 2002, he launched and became general manager of Intel’s Broadband Wireless Access business startup, focused on wireless last-mile technology.

I think the AMEX decision was somewhat based with bias on the fact that AMEX resented having to actually do some WORK for a living (for a change) with GTE on board, and we were too much of a live wire for the lazy old f---s to handle, especially since GTE wanted them to look into manipulative trading (which I'm sure they're fully aware of, but publically in denial of it).
AMEX will get what they deserve in time, and the egg will be on their faces.
I think it would be dutiful to warn any company looking to be listed on the AMEX to think twice about it, given the manipulative history GTE has experienced on the AMEX.

Wireless: Seeking a voice in future of WiMax
International Herald Tribune
Published: October 9, 2006
MILAN WIRELESS
Eric Sylvers
A battle is brewing that may well decide how Europeans connect to the Internet using cellphones, laptops and other portable devices in the coming decade.
Mobile phone companies, chip makers and manufacturers of wireless networks are pushing their sometimes conflicting cases for how the limited amount of radio frequencies should be used to beam data from the Internet to mobile devices and back the other way, a decision that generally is left to national governments.
This week, Craig Barrett, chairman of Intel, was to meet with European Union officials in Brussels to call for "technology neutrality" on the issue. Intel wants the pieces of the radio spectrum to be used by the companies willing to pay the most for it, whether they are established cellphone companies or start-ups setting up wireless networks based on new technologies like WiMax, a trademarked term that stands for "worldwide interoperability for microwave access."
Intel is one of the biggest promoters of WiMax because it is beginning to produce chips that embed the WiMax technology. Intel says that by 2008, laptops will be WiMax-ready in the same way that many are enabled for the shorter-range Wi-Fi standard today.
Theoretically, WiMax has a reach of about 50 kilometers, or 30 miles, and it is already available in selected areas in some countries, including the United States, Britain, Spain, France, Germany and South Korea. The appeal of WiMax lies is its ability to cover large areas with a wireless network that would send data faster than Wi-Fi but would need far fewer antennas. The drawbacks are that the networks are not yet built and that WiMax achieves many of the same results as existing third-generation cellphone networks.
In most European countries, governments are designating the spectrum of 3.4 to 3.5 gigahertz for WiMax operators. Those operators say that band is just barely sufficient - and not enough to ensure an Internet connection does not drop when a user passes from the coverage area of one antenna to another, when, for example, on a train.
To guarantee the handoff, operators say they need to be able to use the part of the radio spectrum of 2.3 to 2.5 gigahertz. The rub is that many European countries have already set this aside for mobile phone companies should they need the added spectrum to improve their 3G mobile phone networks.
"The lower frequencies that will make WiMax mobile are the holy grail," said Patrick Cruise O'Brien, secretary general of the WiMax Spectrum Owners' Alliance, which is based in England and represents about a dozen mostly small, private companies that use WiMax spectrum.
"It would be detrimental to the future of European WiMax if the mobile frequencies were handed over to the 3G operators," said Cruise O'Brien.
"WiMax will only really matter in Europe if it is mobile."
Without handoff ability, WiMax works pretty much like Wi-Fi, he said.
The spectrum battle is less of an issue in the United States and much of Asia and Latin America because the spectrum of 2.3 to 2.5 gigahertz has not been reserved for companies building 3G mobile phone networks there.
In the United States, WiMax got a lift two months ago when Sprint Nextel, a mobile phone carrier, said it would invest as much as $3 billion to construct a nationwide WiMax network using the 2.5-gigahertz spectrum together with Intel, Motorola and Samsung.
Sprint plans to begin trials next year and start the service extensively in 2008.
Karim Lesina, Intel's government affairs manager in Brussels, said that without the 2.3-2.5 gigahertz spectrum, European operators "could lose the lead" they have in mobile technology.
The conflict is that a truly mobile WiMax threatens to make 3G mobile phone networks obsolete even before they are fully operational and after European operators spent €100 billion leasing the spectrum.
Some cellphone operators say they are interested in WiMax, but Cruise O'Brien and other industry experts wonder whether they will push a technology that threatens to trump 3G.
"Carriers spent a lot of money on 3G, and they want to reap the benefits of that investment," said Jagdish Rebello, who is based in California and is the principal analyst of wireless communications for iSuppli, a market research firm. "The 3G operators will do what they can to slow down the deployment of WiMax, which I don't see being rolled out until the beginning of 2008."
In addition to making WiMax mobile, the lower frequencies allow the same coverage as at the higher frequencies but with fewer antennas, Rebello said.
Vodafone, the largest European mobile phone company and the owner of 3G networks in Britain, Germany and Italy, among others, says it has tested WiMax but does not see any benefits over advanced 3G networks.
"Vodafone supports flexible use of spectrum," said Richard Feasey, director of public policy for Vodafone. "Before we can start discussing how the 3G expansion bands should be used, the industry needs clarity on how we'll be able to use our current spectrum in the future."
In Brussels, Barrett will be appealing to a group whose decisions are not always binding.
But the European Union works to ensure that the different parts of the radio spectrum are used for the same purpose across the 25 member countries and the body often sets the standard that countries follow.

FT. LAUDERDALE, Fla.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--April 10, 2006--GlobeTel Communications Corp. (AMEX:GTE) announced that Chief Operating Officer Lawrence Lynch has been appointed acting Chief Financial Officer, succeeding Thomas Jimenez who has retired for health reasons. Mr. Lynch will continue his responsibilities as Chief Operating Officer during this period, although it is the company's intention to appoint an equally accomplished professional to the permanent CFO position as soon as the recruiting process can be comfortably completed.
Mr. Lynch, former Chief Financial Officer for First Data Corporation - Latin America, has over 25 years experience in accounting, banking and card-related products. He began his career as an officer for the Irving Trust Company (now Bank of New York) and later as a Vice President of Security Pacific National Trust Company. In addition, Mr. Lynch has owned and operated several successful "acquiring-and-issuing" card companies in the United States and in Mexico. Mr. Lynch has a Bachelor of Science degree in Economics from Hofstra University, New York and an MBA from Adelphi University, New York. His significant international experience, coupled with his operational, financial and strategic planning capabilities are very beneficial to GlobeTel as it expands its presence in foreign markets. Mr. Lynch, his wife and seven children call South Florida home.
Timothy Huff, GlobeTel's Chief Executive Officer stated, "I would like to thank Tom Jimenez for nearly seven years of service to our Company. He's been instrumental in helping forge the future of the Company and getting us to where we are today. He has been a valuable asset and will be missed. We all wish him the very best as he manages the new set of challenges in his life."
Mr. Huff continued, "Larry Lynch's range of competencies is impressive. He has been a dynamic Chief Operating Officer since joining us almost two years ago. He has been a highly successful CFO at a major international financial services company and fully understands the complexities of today's public accounting environment. We're very comfortable with Larry assuming the duties of CFO until we're able to identify a suitable long term Chief Financial Officer."

Methinks there is a high probability of a late Thursday/early Friday news publication.
