March 2009- Quest buys a chunk of the urine test for prostate cancer.
March 2010- Quest buys a chunk of the breast cancer test in development
HDVY is already a large % of my portfolio.
Today it will become even larger.
Thanks for the update. Hopefully the news will flow next week....maybe we'll even see a bit of a rise in the PPS in anticipation.
Wow, good on you for flashing some integrity. Maybe you could put them on to Earl if he needs paying work.

LOL, that video might be the most embarrassing piece of financial interview work I've ever seen. Talk about bimbos! Why would a company like NWCI demean themselves and their technology by compensating an outfit like this to pump their stock price?
Like watching Naked News......
You assume that because Empire made a bad investment (to date for sure) in CTGI that they'll stand by CTGI today. Investment firms are like investors: sometimes they make excellent choices and sometimes it just doesn't work out. Smart investment firms, like smart investors, cut their losses and move on. They need tax write offs just like the rest of us.
IMO, it's pretty hard to reconcile the rumored ongoing involvement of Empire with the death spiral of CTGI over the past 18 months.
Maybe you can ask your source if any of the $$ from the 25 million new shares was used to pay Empire or other creditors off. It certainly would jive with management's stated intentions in their last PR.
I don't understand why the uproar over a simple statement that was not designed to inspire buying nor selling?
lowman, maybe I can help clarify: propagating unsubstantiated rumors on a message board helps nobody. It demeans the purpose of the forum, which is to pool DD and try to make investment decisions from a point of strength; that is, with as much information as is possible to have at the time of the decision.
You sir, have posted time and time again unsourced rumors about CTGI's positive prospects. More than once you have referenced this seemingly positive news in the same post as where you reported making a phone call to management. The inference was clear. You have engaged in this pattern of posting continually, all the way from 2.29 a share to today's current PPS. In response, you accuse the poster of selling short or trying to beat the PPS down, when the reality has been that the PPS has had no trouble floundering without any help from a handful of posts on a message board.
Why then would you feign surprise over the fact that posters here are tired of this routine and, IMO, would prefer:
1. Actual DD, sourced, like any "word" should be
2. An open admission that a post is your personal fantasy?
3. Silence
Perhaps look at it from the reverse angle: If I were to continually post, "expect terrible financial news from the company in the next 1-2 weeks." Or "word is that insiders are paying themselves handsomely from the newly minted 25 million shares" you would lead the charge demanding some rational explanation for these posts. Or they'd be deleted.
To whoever deleted my previous posts which were about the same topic, before you delete this one, there is no "abbreviated profanity" (lol) in this post, and this post is a direct reply to a question posed on this board by the board's moderator.
70,000 shares is crickets chirping.
What broker allows JALSF to still be bought and sold. I use TDA and the answer is NO
In TDGI this week at .025
Have you seen any of the films they have yet?
Word is however, negotiations/contractual understandings are progressing reasonably and when all is done and told, shareholders will know so, and will look forward to the next developments.
Once again, I assume this is purely your speculation and that the "word" is not based on any external source with a meaningful connection to CTGI.
Please correct me if I'm wrong....merely basing my assumption on your repeated lack of sources for similar rumors in the past.
Thanks for that. Dates to keep in mind:
Deadline for Submission of Proposed Restructuring
Plan (Related Parties) May 31, 2010
Deadline for Submission of Proposed Restructuring
Plan (Trustees) June 30, 2010
No mention of the plan per se that I could see, hence no mention of the common shares.
It's a long way 'til tax write-off season; hopefully we'll hear something definite by the summer.
I know you rode this one up before. Are you still in here? Or looking to add as the R/M date gets closer?
I'll bite on the JBII question. I was lucky enough to buy this almost a year ago when the shell was being purchased. At a cost basis of .45 a share, there's no way I can leave this party til I know the outcome. However, at today's PPS, I don't know...
With JBII, don't let the IHUB board throw you. The evangelical fervor over there has become the story, and that's unfortunate because the real story is the viability of P2O.
What's known is this: the CEO says there will be a working, large-scale P2O machine on display at the shareholder meeting in April....so the wait won't be too long.
Perhaps because this is all that is actually known in regard to P2O, the IHUB board has become a cacophony of other voices, speculations, attacks and serious pumps.
I bought because the shell play made sense. I'm holding because I like the CEO. He is a very, very bright guy. He's certainly green as a CEO, but if he has the goods that he claims, it won't matter because what he claims is only slightly short of modern day alchemy! GLTY
What do make of the uptick and volume in JALSY? Haven't tried buying it yet, but why would the ADR have a market and JALSF be shut down?
Correct translation yields nonsense line: Always where under where.
Ah, now you get the gist of the response. You're an erudite poster ninja, with a truly unique style. In this day, that's worth a few shares of something...
Here's another theory. Time has told:
Company issues 25 millions shares. Company hasn't made a penny in revenue and has churned through a number of "disruptive" technologies. A "no short" clause has, as is often the case, been legally sidestepped. Or the company has been selling more shares that they haven't PR'ed.
A bit of paint at the end of the day is the only thing separating today's PPS from last year's sub-dime lows.
Is it true? You decide.
Advisory: Semper ubi sub ubi (Latin: Always wear underwear)
Classic lowman rebuttal- no mention of the issues raised. A quick jump to the obvious conclusion: anyone who asks critical questions about CTGI must by definition be either:
1. short
2. trying to shake shares loose
Been hearing it all the way from 2.39 to our current PPS, no matter the poster, no matter the validity of the issues they raise.
25 million is a lot of shares. 25 million shares issued and you post that the drop in PPS is all the work of MMs, shorts and clowns like me trying to shake shares loose??? LMAO
Do you really see no connection between the PPS and CTGI management?
Board readers beware:
Even the simple questioning of unsubstantiated rumors will result in your posts being deleted.
Rumor #1.
IRSG is somehow interested in LTC. This rumor was built on a lark, the possible siting of IRSG truck in a parking lot where CTGI may or may not have leased office space. The rumor was greeted with evangelical zeal and has been repeated ad nauseum on this board even though there hasn't been a single shred of eveidence to support its claim.
Rumor #2
CTGI management, following a successful trip to the Ukraine, is close to cutting a deal with a management company which will commercialize LTC.
There is absolutely no substance to this claim. The only information we have here is a loose PR from a month ago.
Fact:
CTGI has diluted its O/S by 25 million shares. The company did not PR this event. We know nothing about the price of the shares, their lockdown time or their intended use.
I doubt Jesus would be moderating and posting on IHUB either. Or investing in the stock market. Jesus' teachings? How about this one:
"It is easier for a camel to pass through the eye of a needle than for a rich man to enter the kingdom of God" (Matthew 19:24).
Or try this on: the heavy hitters that CTGI had on board at time, Frank D and Richard A, knew and informed CTGI all about the costs involved in bringing LTC to market.
If your assumption that CTGI wasn't willing to strike a deal because they wanted to go it alone, perhaps that's why we haven't heard Frank D or Richard A's names mentioned in a long, long time.
Face it ninja, there's not gonna be any genuine interest in this donkey until "new and improved" management clarifies a few essential items. Let's cut the BS; the honeymoon, rah rah period from the now not-so-new PR has worn off.
The board got all fired up, our moderator pumped out reports of how well the Ukraine trip went and, once again, circulated rumors of an impending PR within a couple of weeks. Sound familiar? LOL
Why, ninja, is the new regime so reluctant to disclose the details of the latest dilution?
I guess the real question is: will there be a market for JAL to trade on in Japan? Delisting from the TSE is no biggie, but the bottom line is that this is a Japanese corp. Whether or not this continues to trade on the grays in the USA is only one piece of the puzzle. The other big piece is whether or not there is a marketplace for this in its home country.
LOl, amazing what a little paint will do for an algorithm. I think the hit is missing from the tail end of the name American Bulls
Yeah, but they didn't say what the investing world wants to hear: JBII has a P2O processor that does everything they say it will do
I'm sure that PR is very close. My hope is to grab some more shares before that time....when I'll be paying triple the price or better...
Love this bit- JB: You will see a fully functional big P2O machine on display at the April shareholders meeting.
Not, We hope to have or We plan to have
2 big events not PR'ed today might allow the last chance at sub $5 shares between now and April.
1. No 3rd party verification announced in the CC
2. No uplisting announced in the CC
Either of these events, especially #2, could happen anytime.
And maybe someone is Allison's agent who knows that trying to offload the entire 100k Feb shares in one shot will drive his profit margin 40% lower.
LOL, using that line of reasoning, the fact the company has had a muzzle on for over a year must mean the rumors of ISRG and J&J having a multi-billion dollar bidding war for the veterinary division are true!
TOKYO (Reuters) - Japan Airlines Corp (9205.T) will keep its partnership with American Airlines (AMR.N) in the Oneworld alliance and end talks with Delta Air Lines (DAL.N) and the rival SkyTeam group, the Asahi newspaper reported.
Deals | Japan
The two U.S. carriers have been courting Japan Airlines for months with offers of financial aid and close cooperation on international routes, looking to gain access to its vast network in Asia and benefit from the expansion at Tokyo's Haneda Airport.
JAL had been leaning toward joining hands with Delta before filing for bankruptcy last month and bringing in new management under the auspices of a state-backed fund, the Enterprise Turnaround Initiative Corp of Japan (ETIC).
JAL's new chief executive officer, Kazuo Inamori, and officials of the ETIC have decided that switching alliances is too risky and could hinder their ability to turn around the airline quickly, the Asahi said on its website.
JAL will make an official announcement this week, the Asahi said. A JAL spokeswoman declined to comment. No one at the ETIC could be reached for a comment.
In addition to the burden of upgrading computer systems and other costs, the risk that JAL and Delta would not be able to receive regulatory approval for anti-trust immunity also played into the decision, the Asahi said.
Anti-trust immunity allows airlines to work closely on pricing, flight scheduling and in other areas to boost revenue and lower costs. This is now a possible under the "open skies" treaty recently agreed to by the United States and Japan.
American and its Oneworld partners have offered $1.4 billion in capital and Delta has offered about $1 billion in financial aid in an effort to woo JAL. However, the ETIC is not expected to invite another carrier to invest in JAL at this stage.
Looking for merger news this weekend or next week to bump us up past a nickel.
I bought 100k of 'em....
From the 1/19/2010 BK PR:
The Tokyo Stock Exchange said after the filing that it will delist JAL's shares, effective Feb. 20, according to its usual delisting procedure. The shares will go to the exchange's delisting post, and trading will continue until Feb. 19.
...and from a MarketWatch 2/1/2010 PR
In a related note, the Asia-Pacific region last year knocked North America from its position as the world's largest aviation market, the International Air Transport Association said Monday.
Asia-Pacific travelers reached 647 million in 2009, versus 638 million within North America, IATA said.
The region is expected to significantly help the global industry narrow its losses in 2010, thanks to demand and government stimulus money, the trade group said.
Asia-Pacific carriers are forecast to shrink their losses to $700 million this year from $3.4 billion. In total, global losses are predicted to narrow to $5.6 billion in 2010 versus a loss of $11 billion in 2009.
So Jax and Wall, is your play here to trade a jump and get out before Feb 20?
I just hope the real deal theory pans out. And that big P2O can handle all plastics, not just specific polymers.
There's plenty of time to buy shares here. If a reasonable PR pushes this to .20 and the DD looks good at that time, you'd still be ahead of the 100's of posts that, over time, crowed, "better get them now or you'll be left behind".
Let's get serious folks: the fantasy of a huge buyout or JV by J&J, ISRG, etc has rightfully died down here as the actual scale of management's forward looking plans have been made public. It was always a pipe dream anyway, the spurious talk of $$25 million for a single unit of LTC and other such pig knucklery.
Management sold 25 million shares for a pittance of what the PPS once was. Maybe they'll clear $$2 million for that high % of dilution. Do the math: pay off La Jolla, pay the officers and directors, pay the day to day costs to run a biz....how much do think will be left from the 25 million share pie?
Or maybe 25 million shares gets you very little cash and the promise of some management company to make good while they hold shares that are already in the money. Oh, that's right, we know nothing about the share offering-price, who gets the shares, selling restrictions, what the money will actually be used for- and would have no insight whatsoever if a poster from this board hadn't called the TA.
LOL, If I had 100 shares for every time someone said, better get'em now while you can at the current low price I could retire...even at the current paltry PPS.
...not to mention how much they paid for their 25 million share stake, if it indeed pans out.
You'll know the urine test is well and truly moving ahead when HDVY PR's the $250,000 they'll receive from Abbot when they accept phases 1 & 2 of the the trial.
One test samples tissue. One test samples urine. The tissue test is the one referenced in your post. It's old news. We're still waiting for the urine test to be commercialized. No need for sarcasm, just DD.
This test is old news. It's the urine test that will make HDVY a household name.

My DD here is solid. I hold shares and have since .069
I will continue to hold the majority of these shares regardless of any peripheral publications that may influence the share price.
BioMed reports issued a trading alert on HDVY on Friday. In some cases, these alerts have resulted in an unsustainable rise in the PPS of a company. In some cases, the company has gone on to exceed the original prediction.
If any company executes its business plan, as I am confident HDVY will, PR's from external sources will have little effect on the company's ultimate PPS.
GLTA here.
The connection between Vermillion and HDVY is common knowledge.
Plesae post a link to a BioMed Reports trading alert for Vermillion prior to their FDA approval. That was my point. I stand by it.
If you've been a subscriber to BioMed Reports, you know very well that they have invoked the name "Vermillion" more than once when issuing an alert.
