Doc. John is just helping corp put us in contact with them. We have to go thru corporate. He says that in his post on Vcsy-chat. RLH posted it here earlier
Doc. I don’t think these new guys are crooks like Wade Nothing wrong in what they are doing. Great idea imo. Wade’s shares can be dealt with in a number of ways. I’m sure Pete and James have ran it all by them. You worry too much lol. Better get in while the gettin is good imo
Doc so does this mean you are not in to buy more? Or?
I haven’t heard back from John or corporate yet.Jfyi. But my 5 k is ready to overnight.
RLH Just between me you and junk that’s $20,000.00 already. I’m sure Doc’s in for at least 5 k so 25,000 already. It won’t be long now. Come on everybody. We got this. Let’s get this trading again.
Right on! RLH. OK. So now we only need 98 more shareholders. Come on Doc You must be loaded judging by my last Dr. bill. Lol. Buy 50k $ worth. Then we only need 88 more investors at 5k$ each. We can do this gang. Get out the yard sale signs! Recycle your cans. Tear off the couch cushions. Sell the treadmill you’re walking your dog on. Lol
No RLH. You get an option to buy 50,000 more shares at .02. That’s another 1,000.00 worth. Even if the price is .10 later on. Good deal. I’m taking it as I posted on chat I sent Jonny an email telling him I’m in. There are still over 1,000 shareholders. If just 100 of us put up just 5k each, that’s 500,000.00 to get justice. Come on everyone! Let’s get this over with and get trading again. We can do this.
Why?…. Call the POLICE! He’s a crook!
When he’s indicted, the others will fold like cheap suits Watch and learn.
Only 1 problem with your hypothesis mother. These guys are not Wade. But you knew that. Now suck it up , or shut up! If the monitor deletes this we know where to find Leeboy
Doc Exactly. I see Luiz’s patents being combined with others patents to create something new. But? Will we get paid for that? We need to stay on top of it.
Yeah. Over a thousand of us investors who have been harmed need the Judge to do the right thing and deny his appeal , and go one further. Turn it over to the J D. Come on Judge! We need some justice!
Yeah Doc. It’s going to get real interesting soon. Everything is coming together nicely after 14 long years for me. I think just a couple more for the really huge bucks. But we’ll see. It could be sooner. I’m hoping we’ll get an update after June 8 to 10 show at Niagara Falls. My Bday is the 11th Len lol
Doc. You need to contact Len. Run some of your ideas by him. Couldn’t hurt.
And yeah. It looks like a blood bath coming as far as who turns on who soon. I still find it hard to believe they all haven’t been indicted, phones, email etc monitored. IRS would be wise to do so.imo. It won’t be long now. One way or the other. Whoever sings first now will get the much lighter sentence. It could already be Mills? The other guys must be sweating billets over what he’s told the authorities. They could get caught in so many lies. The ship is on fire and the rats are getting ready to jump!
I don’t think it’s time to put the pig in the ground yet, but we’re getting closer.
Doc. Call Len
Doc…. Apps , locations, things. Lol …..kinda like content , form and function. Lol
Mother. I concur. But this does feel different. I trust these guys now. They had to earn it, and now I think they have. Actions speak loudly! They had a plan and executed it. Stuck to their guns, if you will. Rode it out and are now riding on ! Layer upon layer now Len. Good job!
RLH. Sounds like you’re describing me? Lol
Young Blood. That’s what we need. I said it months ago. By God they’re listening. ????????????????
RLH. HELL YEAH! KAATN $$$$$ 2022 !!!!
RLH. NICE!
Yep and yep Doc. Hell , with any more good news, I might just get lucky tonight! Mama’s happy!
Not paying employees, not paying lease on office, not filing Qtrly SEC reports, blowing employees tax withholdings at strip bars. BURNT TOAST
Yeah Doc. Dividends to a loan service lol The Judge must have spit his coffee all over his monitor when he read that. Lol These guys are toast. Butter em up Judge.
Naw Doc. These are all just a big bunch of crooks who tried to rob us blind. Or DID rob us blind. But got caught! We need justice!
Mother . Cheer up ! Damn. Awesome progress! You need to give these guys way more credit. You sound mad. Shameful. Waaaaaaaa whiner.
RLH. Maybe we did get it back? Something must have gone down. Looks like we’re back in action folks. Yeeeeeehawwwwwww
Very nice RLH ! I read every word. Very informative. Couldn’t find 1 typo. Good job!
Finally some solid “verifiable” progress!
Mahalo and congratulations to Len and his crew. I knew you could do it. k a a t n’s.
I bet Lee sings like a bird once on the stand next to Dicky lol
Doc yep. The 80,000.00 needs to be tracked down. Mills probably got the 40 k but has given it back plus more. Follow the 80k $ consulting fee now. Lol. He’s done. Stick a fork in him. The Feds need to be brought in big time on all of this. My guess is they already have been. Giddy up Uncle Sam. Hang these crooks!
Wade violated his own code of conduct. What a crook.
Looks like Wade also transferred a 20% ownership in Snapnet and Priority Time. Unbelievable.
Who was the consultant and member of Lakeshore? Inquiring minds want to know.
Says right here Doc. He was an employee. 11% interest. 40,000.00 attorneys fees. 80,000.00 consulting fees! Really!
Lakeshore Financing (Copied and pasted from the VCSY 2015 10K).
On January 9, 2013, NOW Solutions completed a financing transaction in the aggregate amount of $1,759,150, which amount was utilized to pay off existing indebtedness of the Company and NOW Solutions to Tara Financial Services and Robert Farias, a former employee of the Company, and all security interests granted to Tara Financial Services and Mr. Farias were cancelled.
In connection with this financing, the Company and several of its subsidiaries entered into a loan agreement (the “Loan Agreement”), dated as of January 9, 2013 with Lakeshore Investment, LLC (“Lakeshore”) under which NOW Solutions issued a secured 10-year promissory note (the “Lakeshore Note”) bearing interest at 11% per annum to Lakeshore in the amount of $1,759,150 payable in equal monthly installments of $24,232 until January 31, 2022. Upon the payment of any prepayment principal amounts, the monthly installment payments shall be proportionately adjusted proportionately on an amortized rata basis.
The Lakeshore Note is secured by the assets of the Company’s subsidiaries, NOW Solutions, Priority Time, SnAPPnet, Inc. (“SnAPPnet”) and the Company’s SiteFlash™ technology and cross-collateralized. Upon the aggregate principal payment of $290,000 toward the Lakeshore Note, the Company has the option to have Lakeshore release either the Priority Time collateral or the SiteFlash™ collateral. Upon payment of the aggregate principal of $590,000 toward the Lakeshore Note, Lakeshore shall release either the Priority Time collateral or the SiteFlash™ collateral (whichever is remaining). Upon payment of the aggregate principal of $890,000 toward the Lakeshore Note, Lakeshore shall release the SnAPPnet collateral and upon full payment of the Lakeshore Note, Lakeshore shall release the NOW Solutions collateral.
As additional consideration for the loan, the Company granted a 5% interest in Net Claim Proceeds (less any attorney’s fees and direct costs) from any litigation or settlement proceeds related to the SiteFlash™ technology to Lakeshore which was increased to 8% under an amendment to the Loan Agreement in 2013. In addition, until the Note is paid in full, NOW Solutions agreed to pay a Lakeshore royalty of 6% of its annual gross revenues in excess of $5 million dollars up to a maximum of $1,759,150. Management has estimated the fair value of the royalty to be nominal as of its issuance date and no royalty was owed as of September 30, 2015 or December 31, 2014.
In December 2014, the Company and Lakeshore entered into an amendment of the Lakeshore Note and the Loan Agreement. Under the terms of the amendment, NOW Solutions agreed to make $2,500 weekly advance payments to Lakeshore to be applied to the 25% dividend of NOW Solutions’ net income after taxes in connection with Lakeshore’s 25% minority ownership interest in NOW Solutions. Within 10 business days after the Company files its periodic reports with the SEC, NOW Solutions will also make quarterly payment advances to Lakeshore based on 60% of Lakeshore’s 25% share of NOW Solutions estimated quarterly net income after taxes, less any weekly payment advances received by Lakeshore during the then-applicable quarter and the weekly $2,500 payments shall be increased or decreased based only upon any increases or decreases of maintenance and cloud-based offering fees during the then-completed quarter (but will not decrease below a minimum of $2,500 per week). NOW Solutions shall pay Lakeshore the balance of Lakeshore’s 25% of NOW’s yearly net income after taxes (less any advances) within 10 business days after the Company files it annual 10-K report with the SEC and any payments in excess of Lakeshore’s 25% of NOW yearly profit shall be credited towards future weekly advance payments. The Company also agreed to pay attorney fees of $40,000 and paid fees of $80,000 to a former consultant and employee of the Company who is a member of Lakeshore. In consideration of the extension to cure the default under the Lakeshore Note and the Loan Agreement, the Company transferred a 20% ownership interest in Priority Time Systems, Inc., a 90% owned subsidiary of VCSY, and in SnAPPnet, Inc., a 100% owned subsidiary of VCSY, to Lakeshore. This resulted in an additional non-controlling interest recognized in the equity of the Company of $391,920 and $99,210 for Priority Time Systems, Inc. and SnAPPnet, Inc., respectively, during 2014. The Company had an option to buy back Lakeshore’s ownership interest in NOW Solutions, Priority Time and SnAPPnet, Inc. (which expired on January 31, 2015).

In July 2015, we entered into an agreement with Lakeshore to amend the terms of the Loan Agreement and the Lakeshore Note. Under the terms of the amendment, the Company issued 13,000,000 common shares with the Rule 144 restrictive legend, resulting in a forbearance loss of $455,000 and Ploinks agreed to issue 3,000,000 common shares of its stock to Lakeshore. The fair value of the Ploinks shares was determined to be nominal. Also in July 2015, the Company further amended the Lakeshore Note and the Loan Agreement with Lakeshore. Pursuant to this Agreement, the Company issued 2,000,000 shares of its common stock with the Rule 144 restrictive legend resulting in a forbearance loss of $54,200 and paid $15,000 to Lakeshore as forbearance fees.
In August 2015, we entered into an agreement with Lakeshore to amend the terms of the Loan Agreement and the Lakeshore Note. Under the terms of the amendment, the Company issued 7,000,000 shares of its common stock with the Rule 144 restrictive legend resulting in a forbearance loss of $175,700 and Ploinks agreed to issue 2,000,000 common shares of its stock to Lakeshore. The fair value of the Ploinks shares was determined to be nominal.
The Company also agreed to make a $500,000 payment for amounts due to Lakeshore under the Lakeshore Note and the Loan Agreement. In the event that the Company did not make the Lakeshore $500,000 payment on or before August 21, 2015, then Lakeshore in lieu of the $500,000 payment, would obtain a purchase option (the “2015 Purchase Option”) to purchase an additional 250 shares of NOW Solutions common stock (representing a 25% ownership interest in NOW Solutions) until December 31, 2015 as follows: (a) 84 shares of NOW Solutions common stock currently owned by VCSY for a purchase price of $450,000 and (b) 166 shares of NOW Solutions common stock for a purchase price of $500,000 payable to NOW Solutions.
Furthermore, in the event that the Company did not make the $500,000 payment to Lakeshore on or before August 21, 2015, no further payment on the Note will be due until January1, 2016 at which time the Note plus all accrued interest will be recalculated and the Note will be re-amortized under the same interest rate and terms as the Note and the maturity date of the Note will be extended 10 years from January 1, 2016. In October 2015, Lakeshore provided notice to the Company of its intent to exercise the 2015 Purchase Option concerning the purchase of additional common shares of NOW Solutions, then Lakeshore’s option will be cancelled and the Company shall make a principal reduction payment in the amount of $250,000 on or before December 31, 2015.
In the event that Lakeshore exercises the 2015 Purchase Option and purchases the additional common shares of NOW Solutions by December 31, 2015, then (a) after the second year, but before the end of the fourth year from the date Lakeshore purchases the additional shares of NOW Solutions under the 2015 Purchase Option, the Company will have the option to purchase for cash, all of Lakeshore's 500 shares for a price equal to the greater of $4.0 Million, 60% of trailing twelve months revenue, or 2.75X EBITDA. If the Company does not exercise its purchase option prior to the end of the fourth year from the date Lakeshore purchases the additional shares of NOW Solutions under the 2015 Purchase Option, then Lakeshore will have a purchase option to purchase for cash, all of the Company’s 500 shares for the greater of $3.5 Million, 55% of trailing twelve months revenue, or 2.50 X EBITDA, which will expire at the end of the seventh year from the date Lakeshore purchases the additional shares of NOW Solutions under the 2015 Purchase Option if exercised by Lakeshore. Lakeshore did not make the payment due by December 31, 2015 to purchase an additional ownership interest in NOW Solutions and as a consequence the 2015 Purchase Option expired.
The Lakeshore note is currently in default and the Company is currently in discussions with Lakeshore to resolve all outstanding issues to ensure that Lakeshore does take any action to enforce its rights under the security agreements related to the Note.
NOW Solutions will continue to make the $2,500 weekly payment which will be applied toward Lakeshore’s share of dividends until at least January 8, 2016. Any reconciliation payments due to Lakeshore will be deferred until January 15, 2016, at which time all reconciliation payments due through September 30, 2015 will be paid to Lakeshore. All of the foregoing $2,500 weekly payments were made through December 31, 2015.
During the year ended December 31, 2015, the Company, through its subsidiary, paid dividends to Lakeshore of $125,000.

….Dividends???? WTF?
Doc. 744 filed Oct 1999. Granted Nov 2004. My guess is they read the patent and ran with it from the get go in 2001 ? WOOPS Mike then woops Hp. Full circle. Now rightful owners get a stab at it. . Lol
Maybe we’re in with Nokia after LG and Samsung poisoned the well?
Doc. Beenwaiting found this. Posted on chat. Very interesting. And in Dallas. And partners security tested too
Could be apples and oranges Lilly Pond Secure Communications VS Nokia
Press Release
Nokia launches groundbreaking cybersecurity-focused testing lab in the U.S.
• First U.S.-based end-to-end cybersecurity 5G testing lab opens in Dallas
• Both Nokia products and partner products will be tested against real-world attack scenarios
09 May 2022
Dallas, Texas – Nokia today announced the launch of its Advanced Security Testing and Research (ASTaR) lab, located in Dallas, Texas. It is the first end-to-end 5G testing lab in the U.S. focused solely on cybersecurity. ASTaR’s holistic approach to researching and testing secure solutions and potential network threat mitigations will go beyond looking at individual network elements and also focus on the larger context of network use and abuse scenarios.
In the 5G era, the nature and scale of information networks are evolving, as are the nature and scale of security threats. More avenues of attack are open to hackers, state actors and corporate espionage due to many types of interworking endpoints, extensive use of open-source software and large-scale use of 5G in a variety of industries. Network security resilience must be maintained as the attack scenarios are constantly changing.
As the central lab dedicated solely to security forensics and research, ASTaR will use and develop cutting-edge tools and techniques to assess the security resilience of 5G networks, as well as their associated software, hardware and applications. ASTaR will then use these assessments to address emerging security threats, and lab researchers will engage with the cybersecurity community to identify emerging threat vectors and potential vulnerabilities
How to Increase Product Success Using Data Mining
Gaining brand loyalty, providing positive customer experience, increasing the number of product purchases and service subscriptions are the goals of any business. Data mining helps reach these goals.
When the business begins to grow, it begins to accumulate various kinds of customer data — emails, phone numbers, social network profiles, banking data, purchase history, etc. This data is a goldmine of actionable business insights that can support the decision-making and secure the bottom line by:
Increasing the customer loyalty
Reducing the client churn
Uncovering hidden profit potential, etc.
How to get these insights then? Using the modern Big Data technology and data mining tools the businesses can sort and group this data, create more detailed customer personas, devise the realistic profit predictions, create personalized offers and close more deals. Below we list 7 cases on how to increase product success and provide better customer experience using data mining.
Data mining helps prioritize resource allocation to create personalized offers
Paul Turner from Skyview Consulting has worked for companies like Oracle, NetSuite, CallidusCloud and Adaptive Insights over the course of his 20-year-long career in marketing and corporate performance management. He emphasizes the importance of providing personalized offers using the insights gained from data mining.
For example, your data mining algorithm tells you a certain online store customer bought 3 packs of Pampers Baby Dry Diapers Size 2, infant formula and an ultra large pack of wet wipes. This almost means she needs lots of goods for a toddler or will need them shortly. Add this customer to the corresponding group, offer them additional discounts for the related products or coupons for bulk purchases of childcare goods, do whatever you can imagine — there is profit to be had and you can have it.
Providing personalized offers is easier using the insights gained from data mining
Data mining helps use your existing customer databases to fuel the marketing campaigns
Neil Patel is one of the top-100 influencers in the field of marketing, lead generation consulting and brand promotion, the author and co-founder of Kissmetrics and other marketing tools and resources. He notes that data mining is essential to fuel your marketing campaigns. This can be done using the following tools:
Issuing VIP-buyers club cards that accumulate the discount points and store the purchase records information for later analysis
Contests and promotions run regularly to collect additional registration details like the customer’s address or general location
Email newsletters with announcements on the upcoming events and surveys on the expected new product features or services
A corporate Twitter account, both acting as the promotion channel and a place to gather positive and negative feedback — and react accordingly
Using such data can help you build the patterns of best practices — like the best days to run a promotion or the most expected feature of your product.
Data mining is essential to fuel your marketing campaigns
Being an attentive and responsive company increases the loyalty of your customers and helps turn them into brand advocates through the word-of-mouth, the best marketing method available.
Data mining helps determine the sweet spots in your customer’s purchase lifecycles
Jim Belosic, the CEO of a lead generation software vendor listed as one of the 500 most dynamically growing companies in the US. He draws attention to the point that choosing the correct time for making an offer is the most important factor in sealing the deal, and data mining is essential for this.
For example, a realtor might identify a prospect as a 30-years-old with a wife, who earns around $150,000 a year. Now let’s assume his/hers browsing history (stored at their ISP’s cash) reveals the wife is pregnant. This means the prospect is very likely to be considering a purchase of a new house or a more spacious apartment within half a year or more.
Choosing the correct time for making an offer is the most important factor in sealing the deal, and data mining is essential for this.
Knowing this, the realtor might begin the drip marketing campaign — slow building trust with the contact through providing some useful real estate evaluation and choosing tips, personal recommendations, or creation of a personalized mortgage estimates. This way, in half a year the prospect will most likely use this realtor as an agent for purchasing his new property.
Quite opposite, if the prospect’s browsing history reveals the urgent search for any flat and moves from top-notch to subpar property in the last week or two, this means the prospect is in a hurry and is looking for any rented space to live, so long-term drip marketing campaign won’t help and more drastic action should be taken to satisfy the prospect’s requirements and earn the commission.
IT Svit opinion on the data mining use
From the IT Svit team’s point, the cloud can be considered the ideal choice for storing the data gathered during data mining, yet its distributed nature can be problematic to support the big data scaling process. Cloud storages cannot perform to the level required for efficient big data mining. When building the immutable cloud infrastructure atop any cloud service provider or hosting data center, the businesses must consider the level of performance of the data storage facilities in the highly-distributed cloud environments.
Cloud storages cannot perform to the level required for efficient big data mining
For example, one of our customers, an Estonian travel agency, used data mining to analyze the behaviors of their site visitors. This helped them understand which products received the most clicks, the best times to offer promotions, the optimal ways to engage both the tourists and the guides, the optimal social marketing channels, etc. Standard Google analytics capabilities proved not sufficient, so a custom data mining project was developed, which now helps our customer to remain one of the most popular Estonian touristic agencies, serving thousands of tourist from the EU and CIS countries yearly.
P.S. Lately, I gave an interview to Clutch, where I expressed my opinion on how big data mining ties with the cloud computing. You can chack it out right here.
Doc. I found another one. Everyone has products but us. Let’s hope Len is real busy writing letters.
