I'll take The Dime!
Not Today - Next Week:
Would love to monitor the board today but can't.
Sorry man, I'm traveling, no time to play today.
Your good at flying solo - keep up the good work!
OK - I asked Mick the question for you.
Request from Dizzydon:
At this point in time, Dizzydon can't join the Berlin Board for discussion.
I'm his courrier pigeon today with a message.
Please post answer's at CHDO board:

I've only got a free subcription Hilander;
when I went to the Berlin Exchange Board I discovered only paid I-HUB subscibers can post on it.
Could you ask Mick if shorting,especially naked shorting,over in Germany could result in the stock going on the SHO Threshold list's here?
Thanks Again

Have A Nice BIG PAYDAY!
We're on the train and ready to go.
Its just a matter of who wants to average down, anybody?
Just One of the Problems of OTCBB Stocks:
This is one of the problems with trading OTCBB stocks.
Apparently anyone at any time can decide to pirate shares and sell them on the Berlin Exchange.
Its not fair trading and tends to kill the stock price from moving upward.
Unless China Direct can release good news to move the company forward, we are stuck in limbo with no place to go.
Come on baby, lets go!
Recent dialogue on CHDO Board this am:
Mick, you might wanna check out the dialogue going on at the China Direct board:

Investors interested and wanna know more about the Berlin Exchanges.
Your the expert and possibly you have some words of wisdom for them.

Thanks;
are there really 4 different exchanges in Germany or is there an overlap of some sort that makes it a good deal less significant then if there were?
Ask Mick - He's the Expert:
Mick has done a lot of research in regard to the Berlin Exchange.
He would know better than me due to his recent research findings.
He's a great guy and am sure he would field any of your questions or point you in the right direction.
Then possibly you could report your findings for all to learn from, we would all appreciate your efforts.
http://investorshub.advfn.com/boards/board.asp?board_id=10210
Berlin Stock Exchange = Pirated Shares:
Its never a good sign when a companies shares show up on the Berlin Exchange.
Hopefully, the company knows about it and will hire attorneys to issue a seise & decist order immediately.
Mick's board explains the problem.
Its definitely worth a read.
Then you can decide if you wanna post it here.
Berlin Stock Exchange Board.
Here's a new board recently started by Mick which holds a lot of good info & links:

This Baby should be turning North SOON!
What's taken soo long?
Where's the news we've been expecting?
I know, patience, patience, patience...
Need More Volume:
Someone's still buying on the cheap.
Sure would like to get some news of any kind.
Good, bad or indifferent, it makes no difference to me.
We need a turn-around to make this ballgame interesting.
Maybe the storms will make a difference in this baby coming alive?
Which Board?
Can you post it here?
I'd love to read it and anything else related to getting us out of the doldrums!
My Pleasure, Looking Forward to Tomorrow, Good night.
Signing Off for Today - Goodbye.

Ref: Question from Spark:
"Hi I see you all over SSWM...was it dilution that brought it down so low? If so do you know the current size of the float? Thanks."
Answer from Hilander:
I KNOW BUGS has been diluted but don't know by how much.
I DO NOT know about the dilution with SSWM?
I'll ask the question at the BUGS message board.
Stop by for the answer:

Does anyone have the OS count previously?
If so we can compare it and see if there has been any dilution.
Anyone who knows the previous OS & Float, please step forward.

Posting on BUGS Board:
Ref: "Maybe we can move our posts to the BUGS Board for the next week".
Great, Lets go for it.
I think posting on the BUGS board's a good idea.
It would give us a chance to learn what they're doing + pick up some additonal knowledge along the way.
In the process we're bound to learn something that would help our trading strategy at SSWM.
Go for it, I'll see you there.
In regard to the share price of SSWM:
Yes I've learned a stock will not rally until its time or it will just fall back down again.
Why?
Because there's not enough momentum to keep it going.
We Just gotta be patient.
When the MM'ers are ready to take this baby up, it'll go and not until. They have to play their little games with shorting and manipulating the stock down until they get there positions set.
I know I'm not big enough or have enough money to influence this market but the MM'ers do, they're the ones in the drivers seat.
Sometimes I have to remind myself, I'm just a little fish trying to catch a ride on top of a whale without getting eaten.
Good Morning Mick - You night Owl:
Very nice board.
I can see you put a lot of time and effort into setting this all up.
Very Good Work Indeed!
Keep It UP, we're just about out of the doldrums.
In September, things should start coming ALIVE.
Question:
Just curious, did you do the click on SGCR at the Berlin Exchange to see if they're being shorted?

Katrina's 2nd anniversary, and the tropical update
Posted by: JeffMasters, 10:19 AM EDT on August 29, 2007
A tropical wave midway between Africa and the Lesser Antilles (94L) has changed little since yesterday. QuikSCAT data from 4:47am EDT this morning shows a poorly organized system with a weak, elongated circulation. Top winds were 25 knots (29 mph). Visible satellite loops show a limited amount of disorganized thunderstorm activity. Wind shear is a favorable 5-10 knots over 94L, and should not be a problem for it until Friday or Saturday. By then, 94L will be moving through the Lesser Antilles Islands, and may encounter high wind shear if it is far enough north to feel the winds of an upper-level low pressure system that will be just north of Puerto Rico.
The presence of a large, dusty area of dry air surrounding its north side is the main thing holding back 94L. This dry air is being sucked into the circulation and is interfering with the storm's organization. When the dry air encounters a thunderstorm inside 94L, this denser dry air gets incorporated into the thunderstorm's downdraft, accelerating the downdraft, and creating arc-shaped surface cumulus clouds that mark the downdraft's position as it spreads out along the ocean surface (Figure 1). The presence of these arc-shaped surface clouds is usually a good sign that a storm is struggling with dry air and will not intensify significantly for at least the next 12 hours.
Water vapor satellite loops of the region show that 94L has not significantly moistened its environment. As the storm continues further west, it should be able to gradually do so, allowing it more of a chance to get organized. The system should track through the Lesser Antilles Islands on Friday, which is the earliest day I expect it could become a tropical depression. None of the reliable computer models make a believable forecast showing 94L developing into a tropical depression before it reaches the Lesser Antilles. The GFDL develops 94L into a tropical storm once it makes it into the central Caribbean south of the Domincan Republic, and this is a believable forecast, if 94L hangs together and makes it into the central Caribbean. The Hurricane Hunters are on call to investigate 94L on Friday.
Figure 1. Visible satellite image of 94L, show arc-shaped outflow boundaries from thunderstorm downdrafts.
South Carolina low
An area of low pressure has developed a few hundred miles off the South Carolina coast, along an old frontal boundary. This disturbance has been designated "95L" by NHC this morning. QuikSCAT showed a sharp wind shift but no closed circulation around 95L this morning at 6:34am EDT, and measured winds as high as 50 mph. Wind shear is about 15 knots over the disturbance, which is drifting south into a region where wind shear is expected to remain low enough to allow some development this week. I do think 95L will become a tropical depression, and most of the computer models also agree on this. The models disagree substantially on 95L's track, though. Steering currents will be weak in its vicinity, and 95L may spend a number of days wandering erratically. The Hurricane Hunters will investigate 95L Thursday afternoon.
Coast of Africa
The UKMET model is indicating the possible development of a tropical depression by Friday off the coast of Africa. There is a large surge of moisture with at least one strong tropical wave embedded in it coming off the coast of Africa this week, and it would be no surprise to see this wave develop into a tropical depression.
Katrina, two years later
Two years ago today, on August 29, 2005, Hurricane Katrina smashed into the Gulf coast with Category 3 winds and an incredible storm surge up to 27.8 feet high. Wunderblogger Mike Theiss was at ground zero in Gulfport, Mississippi during Katrina, and has posted a blog this morning on his experience, complete with some very compelling photos. His video of the storm surge washing into the hotel he was at is the most amazing storm video I've ever seen.
Margie Kieper's Katrina's Storm Surge feature on our tropical page provides an extraordinarily detailed 16-part examination of each portion of the coast devastated by Katrina. Margie is scheduled to be a guest on the Talking Tropics Internet radio show Thursday night to talk about Katrina's storm surge. Check the listings to see if there are any last minute changes.
The photo above was taken from Part 8: Lakeshore to Waveland, MS of Katrina's storm surge. An excerpt from the text:
I found an astonishing photo, of the peak of the surge in Waveland, which didn't appear to be faked, but I'm pretty much of a skeptic. The photo had this caption, "Photo taken in Waveland, MS, just North of the Railroad Tracks during Katrina around 9 AM by Judith Bradford." Note that it is being taken from the second floor window of a home, and that the water is close to the roof line of the first floor. There is a man perched on what is left of a home across the street, wearing a tiny life jacket and clutching a neon green pool noodle. There are electric lines running down from a pole to a home from left to right. In the distance on the right is a home with water up to the roof line. It is likely after 9am, as the bulk of the surge came between 9 and 10 am (that is when most of the fatalities occurred along the Mississippi coast), and probably the eye is already overhead, as the water is relatively calm and there appears to be little wind or rain, even though the pine trees are bent from the recent force of the eyewall winds.
The information provided by the Bradfords regarding the surge was very specific. The power went out at around 6:30am at their Waveland home on the morning of the 29th. They were staying in the home for a couple of reasons; first, because the home had not received any water at all from Camille, and, secondly, because both work in the medical field and needed to be available after the storm. At almost exactly 8:30am, water started coming over the railroad track embankment, from the coast, and into their yard.
Their home is 18 inches off the ground, and the first floor has 8-foot ceilings. There is an 18-inch truss between the 1st and 2nd floors, and this is what saved their 2nd floor from being flooded. In a matter of only five to ten minutes the water came up six feet, and quickly filled the first floor after that. Judith said that is why they saved so little from the first floor; they had no time to get anything. She first tried to shut the living room front door, but the force of the water burst the door open. She grabbed a camera and the Bradfords and their children ran upstairs. They marked the high water mark (HWM) on the inner stairwell showing how high the water came ? a little more than six more inches into the truss, which is a total of 10 feet of surge.
They saved two other people besides the man who was floating by on the roof in the photo. He was a chef named Glen, holding a four month old dachshund named Pinky, in the surge. He had lost his other dog and three cockatiels when his mother's home collapsed. The roof wedged against their van, underwater, and stopped, so they were able to save him. Bill Bradford told me when he swam out to rescue that man, that the water was so warm it seemed almost hot. He said the current was nothing like white water, but was a gentle continuous flow.
Because their home is right by the railroad tracks, it is not as high in elevation as I had thought. It is around 17 feet elevation. That is close to the HWM observed in Pass Christian, 27 feet.
With such a good quality HWM, I wondered why their house was not surveyed. Judith Bradford told me that no one from the federal government seemed to realize their house was there. The road leading up to Jeff Davis (they own 6 ½ acres and raise miniature horses, which were drowned in their stables when the surge came) was filled with debris. The teams doing Search and Recovery for bodies didn't even check the house because they didn't know it was there; it was a good thing the family survived!
The water started to go down sometime after 11am, and by noon was about chest high, and by 2pm about waist-deep. The water finally left the house completely by about 4 or 5 pm that evening. She believes the railroad track embankment kept the water from receding faster. "
I'll have an update Thursday morning, unless there's a major change in 94L or 95L. My thoughts and prayers are with all those affected by Hurricane Katrina today. Let us not forget what happened two years ago.
Jeff Masters
You Guessed It!
I'm planning on hitting a home run with SSWM!
Go Baby Go!
Very Interesting ? Indeed:
These are the water & oil stocks I'm betten on.
Their all in the doldrums currently.
So, the prices are still cheap.
THESE ARE THE OIL STOCKS I'M BETTEN ON.
RIGHT NOW, ITS THE REDS AGAINST THE GREENS AND THE GREENS ARE GETTEN READY TO SCORE A FIELD GOAL!
Lastly but not Leastly:
Thats it for today.

Notes:
States Affected and Category by States Affected: The impact of the
hurricane on individual U.S. states based upon the Saffir-Simpson Scale
(through the estimate of the maximum sustained surface winds at each state).
(TX S-South Texas, TX C-Central Texas, TX N-North Texas, LA-Louisiana,
MS-Mississippi, AL-Alabama, FL NW-Northwest Florida, FL SW-Southwest
Florida, FL SE-Southeast Florida, FL NE-Northeast Florida, GA-Georgia,
SC-South Carolina, NC-North Carolina, VA-Virginia, MD-Maryland, DE-Delaware,
NJ-New Jersey, NY-New York, PA-Pennsylvania, CT-Connecticut, RI-Rhode Island,
MA-Massachusetts, NH-New Hampshire, ME-Maine. In Texas, south refers to the
area from the Mexican border to Corpus Christi; central spans from north of
Corpus Christi to Matagorda Bay and north refers to the region from north of
Matagorda Bay to the Louisiana border. In Florida, the north-south dividing
line is from Cape Canaveral [28.45N] to Tarpon Springs [28.17N]. The
dividing line between west-east Florida goes from 82.69W at the north Florida
border with Georgia, to Lake Okeechobee and due south along longitude 80.85W.)
Highest U.S. Saffir-Simpson Category: The highest Saffir-Simpson Hurricane
Scale impact in the United States based upon estimated maximum sustained
surface winds produced at the coast.
Central Pressure: The observed (or analyzed from peripheral pressure
measurements) central pressure of the hurricane at landfall.
Maximum Winds: Estimated maximum sustained (1-min) surface (10 m) winds to
occur along the U. S. coast. Winds are estimated to the nearest 10 kt for the
period of 1851 to 1885 and to the nearest 5 kt for the period of 1886 to date.
(1 kt = 1.15 mph.)
* - Indicates that the hurricane center did not make a U.S. landfall (or
substantially weakened before making landfall), but did produce the indicated
hurricane force winds over land. In this case, central pressure is given for
the hurricane's point of closest approach.
& - Indicates that the hurricane center did make a direct landfall, but that
the strongest winds likely remained offshore. Thus the winds indicated here
are lower than in HURDAT.
# - Indicates that the hurricane made landfall over Mexico, but also caused
sustained hurricane force surface winds in Texas. The strongest winds at
landfall impacted Mexico, while the weaker maximum sustained winds indicated
here were conditions estimated to occur in Texas. Indicated central pressure
given is that at Mexican landfall.
Additional Note: Because of the sparseness of towns and cities before 1900 in
some coastal locations along the United States, the above list is not complete
for all states. Before the Gulf of Mexico and Atlantic coasts became settled,
hurricanes may have been underestimated in their intensity or missed completely
for small-sized systems (i.e., 2004’s Hurricane Charley). The following list
provides estimated dates when accurate tropical cyclone records began for
specified regions of the United States based upon U.S Census reports and other
historical analyses. Years in parenthesis indicate possible starting dates for
reliable records before the 1850s that may be available with additional research:
Texas-south – 1880, Texas-central – 1851, Texas-north – 1860, Louisiana – 1880,
Mississippi – 1851, Alabama < 1851 (1830), Florida-northwest – 1880,
Florida-southwest – 1900, Florida-southeast – 1900, Florida-northeast – 1880,
Georgia < 1851 (1800), South Carolina < 1851 (1760), North Carolina < 1851 (1760),
Virginia < 1851 (1700), Maryland < 1851 (1760), Delaware < 1851 (1700), New
Jersey < 1851 (1760), New York < 1851 (1700), Connecticut < 1851 (1660), Rhode
Island < 1851 (1760), Massachusetts < 1851 (1660), New Hampshire < 1851 (1660),
and Maine < 1851 (1790).
General Hurricane Watch Data Post #1:
I found some research this morning I thought this board would enjoy.
Here we Go:
Satellite animation of Hurricane Georges, which struck the Mississippi Gulf coast in 1998.
When does hurricane season start?
The Atlantic hurricane season is from June 1 to November 30, but most hurricanes occur during the fall months. The Eastern Pacific hurricane season is from May 15 to November 30. (Above is a graphic that shows you when hurricanes are most active across parts of the world.)
How do hurricanes form?
Hurricanes only form over really warm ocean water of 80°F or warmer. The atmosphere (the air) must cool off very quickly the higher you go. Also, the wind must be blowing in the same direction and at the same speed to force air upward from the ocean surface. Winds flow outward above the storm allowing the air below to rise. Hurricanes typically form between 5 to 15 degrees latitude north and south of the equator. The Coriolis Force is needed to create the spin in the hurricane and it becomes too weak near the equator, so hurricanes can never form there.

BTW, that was a great buy @ 0.009!
I wish I was so lucky.
I've owned SSWM for one year+.
I look at it this way, I will pay long term capital gains tax in lieu of short term.
There's more than one way to skin this cat.
