The latest investor in green energy - the CIA
Tue Oct 18, 4:00 AM ET
ARLINGTON, VA. - What if you had a power unit that generated substantial electrical energy with no fuel? What if it were so rugged that you could parachute it out of an airplane? What if it were so easy to set up that two people could have it running in just a few hours?
Now there is such a device - built by a small Virginia start-up - and the federal government has taken notice.
SkyBuilt Power Inc. has begun building electricity-generating units fueled mostly by solar and wind energy. The units, which use a battery backup system when the sun is down and the wind is calm, are designed to run for years with little maintenance.
Depending upon its configuration, SkyBuilt's Mobile Power Station (MPS) can generate up to 150 kilowatts of electricity, says David Muchow, the firm's president and CEO. That's enough to power an emergency operations center, an Army field kitchen, or a small medical facility.
Privately owned SkyBuilt now has a new investor - In-Q-Tel, a venture capital firm set up by the US Central Intelligence Agency. Skybuilt and In-Q-Tel will announce Tuesday that they have signed a strategic development agreement, including an investment in SkyBuilt.
In-Q-Tel's support is a breakthrough for the small firm. (The "Q" in In-Q-Tel is a whimsical play on the movie character "Q" who supplies James Bond with nifty gadgets.) SkyBuilt provides innovative energy solutions with the potential to help meet a wide variety of critical government and commercial power needs, says Gilman Louie, In-Q-Tel president and CEO.
The power stations could have important uses for disaster relief, homeland security, military operations, intelligence work, and a variety of commercial applications. The units are not yet designed for use by homeowners.
Though it is not mentioned, SkyBuilt units would have obvious applications in places like Afghanistan and Iraq, where soldiers risk their lives over long supply lines to truck in fuel for generators.
After hurricane Katrina, SkyBuilt units could have been rushed to the scene and set up in hours, restoring power to hospitals, evacuee centers, police and fire departments, and cellphone towers.
One big drawback of solar energy until now has been that it was a "custom industry," says Scott Sklar, vice president of SkyBuilt. Components are usually put together on-site, and differ from location to location. "When you buy a car, do they ship in all the pieces to your front yard and have somebody assemble it? I'm afraid not. We [at SkyBuilt] learned something from Henry Ford," he adds.
SkyBuilt follows the Ford model. Its MPS units are what Sklar calls "plop and drop, plug and play."
It works this way: Parts for each Skybuilt unit are packed into standard-size shipping containers. The containers, specially modified and strengthened, can be moved by ship, truck, train, or even dropped by a laser-guided parachute to the most remote location.
Once on-site, the container is opened, and arms and poles are attached to the outside to hold solar cells and wind turbines. A prototype built here in Arlington has been running steadily for more than a year without repairs or maintenance.
While SkyBuilt has 140 patent claims on its energy system, most of its individual component parts are widely available. Mr. Muchow explains that its MPS can use photovoltaic cells, small wind turbines, computers, batteries, and other parts from essentially any manufacturer.
This open architecture allows its MPS units to be upgraded whenever a battery or other manufacturer comes out with a better product. It also reduces costs.
This was attractive to In-Q-Tel. The government could develop its own advanced technology (as "Q" might do). But it is far less costly to support technology like SkyBuilt's that also finds a larger market in the private sector, says Troy Pearsall, vice president of technology at In-Q-Tel.
In-Q-Tel, meanwhile, has signed agreements similar to this one with more than 80 companies since it was set up in 1999. Its mission is to identify and invest in firms with cutting-edge technologies that can aid US national security.
So far holding up, been a very bumpy ride! Don't know if EKWX can stand more bidwhackers. Have a goodnight Fringe, read you tomorrow !
BoomTime
Thanks for the updates Fringe, nice work. Float seems to be getting thin these days. Now only if support can hold, that would be great.
BoomTime
The Canadian exchanges are taking a beating lately, can't go up forever, interesting to note Info Tech seems to be holding still. Their time will come, and come it shall! lol
TMG.V - MD&A Link
Patience is indeed needed. I myself have gotten restless with the lack of action in the PPS.
MD&A does indicates the good the possibility of landing more contracts from bids back from 2004. It'll be nice to see if TMG can get a contract without JCLP or through a different channel.
http://www.sedar.com/csfsprod/data60/filings/00835600/00000001/C%3A%5CFilings%5C812467.pdf
Lets see if support can hold. Would be nice if Godin could fill in some blanks. I agree with most here, its time to release some of the surveys that EKWX have done, don't know what they are waiting for, you got to remember no news is bad news usually, more so on pinks where you have very few longs.
Hoping for the best. Goodluck to all!

Nortel names Mike Zafirovski as CEO
Monday October 17, 9:32 am ET
Nortel Networks Corporation (NYSE:NT) (TSX:NT) today announced that its Board of Directors appointed Mike S. Zafirovski as president and chief executive officer (CEO).
Zafirovski will succeed Bill Owens as president and CEO on November 15th, 2005.
"Mike Zafirovski has the kind of proven, team-building leadership that has seen him create significant new value during his career in two of the world's most important global corporations," said Harry J. Pearce, chairman of the board, Nortel. "He's the right leader to build on the important work of Bill Owens - and take Nortel to the next level."
Zafirovski, 51, has a 30-year career of leadership with two of the world's highest profile corporate innovators, General Electric and Motorola. From 1975 to 2000, Zafirovski served with General Electric in a succession of senior executive positions in a number of the company's key divisions: president and CEO, GE Lighting; president, GE Capital Mortgage Corporation; and president and CEO, GE Capital Fleet Services. In 2000, Zafirovski joined Motorola, first as president and CEO of the Personal Communications Sector, and from 2002 to 2005, as president and chief operating officer of Motorola.
Pearce saluted outgoing vice chairman and CEO Bill Owens. "At a moment of great challenge and enormous need in the history of this company, the Board turned to one of its own, whose long career embodied the highest levels of trust, integrity and distinguished leadership," Pearce said. "We needed an experienced, steady hand and Bill delivered. On behalf of our Board, our employees, investors, partners and customers, we will be forever grateful."
"Bill re-established stability within Nortel and credibility with all its stakeholders. He guided the company in becoming current in its financial reporting and maintained the loyalty of our customers. Mike can now build for the future on the strong foundation Bill Owens has given us," Pearce said.
Owens added, "As Nortel has said over the past many months 'We are Playing to Win' and Mike's coming on board is a most important step along that path. His proven track record in the global telecom sector and the business world will serve this company, our shareholders and our customers extremely well. I'm proud to have him take the helm." Owens continued, "We are proud of and pleased with our achievements over the past 19 months. We are on a very stable, solid footing, with a rebuilt and strong senior management team, are back to regular financial reporting, and are growing business in some of the most important markets in the world. The employees, customers and partners of this great company are world class and I am deeply grateful for their support and dedication. At 65, I'm now pleased to turn over this company to a proven leader to drive our success over many years ahead."
Zafirovski said, "I've had the privilege, through my career of working for organizations whose success was based on understanding and leveraging tremendous internal brainpower and human capital. And that's why I'm so excited about Nortel. I see those same characteristics at play. They're the foundation of Nortel's tradition of leadership and innovation, its global presence and its iconic status for technical excellence."
"Bill is leaving a company uniquely positioned for the future that can capitalize on vital opportunities around the world. His dedication and results are both evident as well as significant, and I thank him for his support and contributions," continued Zafirovski. "Candidly, there are very few companies that combine Nortel's rich legacy of innovative leadership and customer base with its enviable position in the world's most important and fastest growing markets. I'm thrilled to have the opportunity to work with the global and dynamic team of men and women at Nortel."
Zafirovski, a native of Macedonia, emigrated to the United States in 1969. He is married to Robin, and they have three sons. He is a director of The Boeing Corporation as well as a variety of philanthropic and educational institutions.
Zafirovski has also been appointed president and CEO of Nortel Networks Limited, (NNL), the Company's principal operating subsidiary, and a director to the Boards of the Company and NNL, effective November 15, 2005.
Upon leaving Nortel, Bill Owens will continue his engagements around the world in serving on various boards, in promoting good governance, and will continue to pursue entrepreneurial endeavors as well as his philanthropic interests.
The Company will hold a press conference at 1:00 PM EDT on Monday, October 17, 2005. For all other parties there will be a webcast available of the press conference. To take part in the webcast (listen-only mode), please visit http://www31.nortelnetworks.com/webcast.cgi?id=3653.

Hello December
How is the market depth usually on CBP.V, is the spread tight at all?
Thanks

APE.V - Resistance @ .50
Liquidity a problem though
ALH.V - 1.20
Came out with news yesterday, maybe she has more left in her!?!
Thats okay, they'll be others, just hopefully the ones that I hold as well, lol!
I've been looking more at your magic box, lately, I'll let you know if I have any questions, thanks.
Keep up the great work! Hopefully oneday I can be like Irwhite, too!

... and it passed me by. I was able to read the news this morning about the acquistion, but had to step out for work so I didn't know if chasing the PPS this morning was a wise decision, since I wasn't gonna be able to watch it! I think we might have a WDAM effect here, lol! These pennies, look at the volume. These daytraders love jumping on them, just gotta be lucky to be holding the right one.
I'm sitting on ekwx currently, the company isn't really PR friendly, but then again they really don't have much of a business yet! These subs are tricky to call, pure MM realm. Days in which up moves are called for, it stalls and slowly is brought down. Hard to them read!
BoomTime
CES.V - 0.17
I've played this before in the last leg up, with decent results. Take notice to see the depth of the bid, this company has known for their leaks. 17.5 cents needs to break. Watch for increase in avg volume.
EMS.TO - 0.45
Watching for reversal

CHD.TO - 0.35
Interesting volume the last two days.
Thanks for the info, SA.
So if you combime your 90-10 rule with Pareto's Law of 80/20, it would be pretty safe to say that the odds are really stacked up against you, lol!
Thanks SA, discipline is the key!

Hello Mr. Analyzer,

TUE.V - Hey tackler
This has been on my watchlist for the last two months since the $1.00 breakout in early Sept., should've listened to myself! Isn't that usually the case, lol!
Useful Article #4: Stages in Stocks
http://www.sierrainvestor.com/stan_weinstein.html
Stage 1 (The Basing Area) : Stage 1 is a time period where the stock fluctuates in a relatively narrow range. Little or nothing seems to be happening and the stock price will wander back and forth across the 200 day moving average. This period is generally called "base building".
Stage 2 (Advancing Phase) : Stage 2 is an advancing stage characterized by the stock rising above the 200 and 50 day moving averages. The stock may drop below the 50 day average and still be considered in Stage 2. Fundamentally, Stage 2 is triggered by a perception of improved conditions with the company.
Stage 3 (The Top Area) : Stage 3 is the "topping out" of the stock price action. Typically the price will begin to cross the 200 day moving average towards the downside, and the average may begin to round over on the chart. This is the time to take profits.
Stage 4 (The Declining Phase) : Finally, the Stage 4 decline begins. The stock price drops below the 50 and 200 day moving averages, and continues down until a new Stage 1 begins.
lol tackler, uranium sure is hot!
If you have any suggestions how to make this board better, I would like to hear your input.
Thanks BoomTime
Dear Board,
I will be updating the board header for the next few days to show all related indices in Canada (and perhaps ETFs as well) so we know which sector we should be picking our holdings from. Remember you have a greater success rate with technical breakouts if the sector the equity is also showing signs of strength.
Thanks Everyone

Can anyone provide a breakdown on L2? Thanks.
