Pat FONR is a stuckholder of mine. Have done very well with it over the years. Did not expect to hold it this long, but am not worried as I believe it will continue to have p and d runs. Jim
FONR up despite notice of late filing for 10Q. This one has beem creeping up nicely the last 2 weeks. Maybe Dr. D will finally give up control and sell? Jim

ECGI looking like a go. Now at .46 +9%. Been doing well last few days. Looking for .50's today. There is a buyout rumor that is helping. Probably nothing to that. Jim

GKIG up 14% on low volume. This one is worth watching for a run to the .07 area from current .04. Jim
EMFP masks are 99% effective against Asian bird flu. Has been moving up on reports like this -
Twenty-eight dead as bird flu returns to ravage Asia
By Jan McGirk in Bangkok
13 September 2004
In these apocalyptical times, Asians are facing pestilence as well as war. Bird flu is back with a vengeance, with 28 people dead and new outbreaks recorded last week in Thailand and Malaysia. Three chicken farmers' children with high fevers are under observation in hospital in Prachinburi province, eastern Thailand, just days after a teenage fighting-cock breeder succumbed to virulent respiratory flu.
Officials from the World Health Organisation (WHO) caution that, if unchecked, the H5N1 virus could quickly mutate into a deadly strain capable of transmission between humans. The dreaded H5N1 avian flu virus has already struck five Asian countries, ending a brief summer lull. A three-year-old boy in Bangkok is also believed to have contracted the disease.
China, Thailand, Vietnam, Indonesia and Malaysia have all reported new bird flu outbreaks since July, following an earlier epidemic this spring. Quarantines and mass culls of chickens, ducks and other migratory fowl have been ordered. Reports that some Malaysians are concealing prized songbirds to spare them from the mass slaughter have alarmed locals.
Unless efforts are intensified to control its spread, a global influenza pandemic could wipe out millions of vulnerable people, as happened in 1918-19, when Spanish flu killed more victims than the Great War. Mutant bird flu is potentially more deadly than Sars, health officials have warned. The avian flu virus was detected last month in pet cats and pigs, renewing worries of virus mutation. "Virtually nobody would have immunity against the new virus," Dr Shigeru Omi, a WHO official, warned.
So far, all 39 cases of the bird flu among people were contracted from Asian poultry. Ten people have survived bird flu infection and recovered. But human-to-human transmission of the virus is "only a matter of time," Dr Omi added. "Unless intensified efforts are made to halt the spread of the virus, a pandemic is very likely to occur."
Three new bird flu cases were discovered in Northern Malaysia, all within a 10-km radius of a quarantine area set up last week in Kelantan province.
Meanwhile, the death of an 18-year-old Thai fighting-cock breeder last week has panicked the country's other breeders, who are now demanding controversial flu vaccines for their prize champions, with each cock worth about £1,000.
Sudarat Keyuraphan, the Thai Health Minister, said the teenage victim fell sick on 31 August, but had not sought medical help until 4 September, by which time his illness had developed beyond the point of recovery. He had nursed his sick birds, bathing them and even sucking their saliva out with his own mouth to clear their blocked air passages. This "kiss of life" to resuscitate a flagging cock is a widespread practice in Asia, with obvious risks. Bird flu is not transmitted through eating contaminated meat, but through contact with a bird's infected body fluids or its breath.
So far all nine of the bird flu victims in Thailand have been chicken breeders or their family members. In neighbouring Vietnam, the death toll is 20. Thailand has refused advice to vaccinate poultry stocks, fearing this might adversely affect its exports of chicken meat. As the world's fourth-largest exporter of chicken, Thailand still is reeling from massive culls during the last outbreak. Compensation for losses was minimal and some fighting cocks were clandestinely moved outside the quarantine zones.
Earlier this month, the Thai prime minister, Thaksin Shinawatra, hatched a peculiar bilateral trade scheme. His chicken-for-arms deal proposed exchanging 250,000 tonnes of frozen poultry meat, unsold because of consumer worries about catching bird flu through food, for Russian fighting jets. The proposal could resolve a $36m debt owed by Moscow for rice purchases in 1990, although Moscow wants only one-fifth of the chicken stocks. Cheap credit is on offer to any Asian nation willing to buy Thai poultry, which is now shunned by its biggest customers, the European Union and Japan.
Mr Shinawatra ordered his ambassador in Moscow to offer Thai chicken for Russian weapons and promised to consult with military chiefs on a preferred arms shopping list. A team of Thai Air Force personnel visited Russia last month to check out Sukhoi Su-30s, and Bangkok reportedly is considering buying six warplanes, worth $200m. Su-30s, together with MiGs, are the bulwark of the Russian arms trade and Indonesia. Vietnam and Malaysia regularly snap them up.
