I was concerned that this idea would require another shell and all that a spinoff of another stock would entail so I emailed Larry with my concerns. He said being a seperate entity was not a spinoff but a joint venture where we develop their product at very little or no cost to HKBV, they distribute, and we share in the proceeds at a good % rate
mark
Etrade makes you call in as well
As I understand it, the tier 1 beverage distribution group is really small. If Larry can get 3 of the largest east coast distributors and 2 from the west coast to joint venture a product you can bet it will be a success. Instead of having 100% of something you have to fight to get on the shelves, it may be better to have a 20% carry on something that will be promoted by the vendors. Makes sense to me.
As far as RSHN, we have a lot of shares, but no where near what they have.
NOW that's a terrific idea! They would certainly have an incentive to grow sales

Lateegra Announces Picacho Property Matter
Sep 14, 2007 17:53:00 (ET)
VANCOUVER, BC, Sep 14, 2007 (MARKET WIRE via COMTEX) -- Lateegra has received a termination notice from Tara Gold Resources Corp. ("Tara") respecting the Company's option to earn an interest in the Picacho property located in Sonora, Mexico.
The Board of Directors of the Company has decided to suspend payments to Tara with respect to the Picacho Option Agreement on the basis that the title to the property has not yet been delivered to Lateegra. The Company understands that Tara is taking the necessary steps to clarify title, however, it has not yet received assurances that Tara has done so.
Exploration programs planned by the Company were delayed for several months waiting for the title issue to be resolved. Due to this delay, the property is still in an early exploration stage that does not justify the escalating payments required under the option agreement. Tara has indicated that it is inflexible on the payment schedule because of an underlying agreement it has with the vendor.
The Company is reserving the right to review the situation in the short term in order to decide whether to continue to exercise its rights under the Option Agreement or possibly to commence legal proceedings against Tara for failing amongst other things to provide secure title as provided in the Option Agreement.
The company had prepared additional documentation respecting the completion of outstanding matters related to a revised Option Agreement for execution by Tara and its subsidiary. The Company has engaged Mexican counsel to provide advice respecting the title situation. Extensive negotiations with Tara have failed to resolve the outstanding issues and the Company is of the view that it had no alternative but to suspend payments under the Option Agreement until the outstanding matters are resolved to its satisfaction.
ON BEHALF OF THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS

A Secret Time Bomb Made of Gold
http://online.barrons.com/article/SB118954417476624138.html
THE VOLATILITY SEEN THIS QUARTER IN the stock and credit markets may be new to younger investors. But there is something lurking out there that can make things really dicey.
A little-known fountain of free money called the "gold carry trade" is in danger of drying up. And if it does, then markets from gold to bonds and even stocks can be in for a wild ride.
Before even explaining what the gold carry trade entails, let me first say that its demise has been forecast for nearly a decade. In researching this topic, I found articles as far back as 1998 looking for an explosion in gold prices and commensurate damage to other markets, if not the economy. In other words, this is a story that is as old as Methuselah.
But with a sinking dollar, soaring commodities, and several diverse technical conditions on the charts, the dynamics are coming together to make the end of the gold carry trade a lot closer to reality than ever before.
The gold carry trade is similar to the yen carry trade, which has been a hot topic in the markets this year. Basically, money is borrowed from one source at a low interest rate and invested elsewhere at a higher rate. As long as relevant exchange rates and asset prices remain stable, a profit is made with little effort.
Central banks are sitting on huge supplies of gold that earn them no interest and cost them money just to store securely. To earn a little revenue on these static assets, they loan their gold to banks, called buillon banks, at a ridiculously low interest rate on the order of 1%.
The banks turn around and sell the gold in the market, typically in the London bullion market, and invest the proceeds in a higher-paying asset, such as long-term Treasury bonds. If bonds pay 4.6% then the banks earn an easy 3.6%.
The problem is that if the gold price starts to rise, profits can be wiped out or turned to losses. And in today's market, a falling dollar not only boosts gold prices but it also makes Treasury bonds less attractive to foreign investors. That reduces demand and weakens prices to create a potential double-edged sword for carry traders.
The banks, of course, realize this and hedge their gold sales by buying gold futures. According to Kevin Schweitzer, senior vice president with Hudson Securities, a firm that makes markets in gold stocks, the hedge is not perfect. If central banks call in their gold loans, the banks cannot wait for contract expiration to take delivery on the gold they purchased via their futures contracts. They have to pay back their loans right away and if gold prices are stable, there is no problem for the banks going into the physical market to buy back their gold.
However, if gold starts to rise quickly, the added demand from the banks to buy gold can exacerbate the rally causing what amounts to a mad dash for the metal. The market will respond with steeply higher prices, and Schweitzer sees this pushing gold to $850 by the end of the year.
All of this is fundamental in nature so let's examine the technicals a bit more. As the chart shows, gold peaked in May 2006 in what some labeled a speculative bubble. However, rather than falling quickly as burst bubbles portend, the market moved sideways for the next 15 months (see Chart 1).
Last month, gold broke out from that range to resume its bull market, moving quickly from 670 to 721 in just eight trading days. A 7.6% move in such a short period is a wake-up call for the carry traders.
Schweitzer also points out that open interest in gold futures, which measures the current size of bets made by futures traders, is 34% lower than it was last year at the presumed speculative price peak. In other words, the speculation present today is lower than it was the last time prices went up like they are now, and Schweitzer thinks that this gives the market a lot of room to the upside. Traders who buy momentum markets -- think Nasdaq in 1999 -- have not yet piled on.
Seasonally, gold is also entering one of the stronger parts of the year. Commercial players in the gold industry, the so-called smart money, are still buying and otherwise acting as if they expect prices to continue to rise (see Getting Technical, "Gold Stocks Are Precious Again," Sept. 10). Put it all together and the technicals support higher prices, short-term corrections excepted, and that will continue to pressure the gold carry trade.
What is the price that breaks the bank, so to speak? It is hard to say. But with so many factors conspiring to keep the rally going, it does look as if the carry trade is finally about to unwind. Banks that hold big short positions in gold are going to be very vulnerable. Investors sitting on a stash of Krugerrands or Maple Leafs will be a lot happier.

I agree wholeheartedly in reducing the shares. I don't look for any move in the price until closer to Thanksgiving as we are awaiting the first 3 months audit, retirement of shares since those a$$holes wouldn't sign their certificates when they returned them and we should see how roadkill is doing in their first quarter of sales.

I agree that the #s are not exceptionable, but I look at those trenches as basiclly surface samples to determine where to drill to define the possibly deeper deposits. It's a very large area to be defined. The trenches are only 2 to 3 meters deep, in other words only 5- 10 feet below the surface. I would expect the results to improve as they go deeper with the drill. I hope we get Q2 today to show things are moving along on the financial front.

Trenching Program Extends New Zone to Over 700 Meters at San Miguel, Mexico
Thursday August 30, 8:30 am ET
CHICAGO, IL--(MARKET WIRE)--Aug 30, 2007 -- Tara Gold Resources Corp. (Other OTC:TRGD.PK - News) (Frankfurt:T8N.F - News) is pleased to announce trenching results from the ongoing exploration program in the central part of its San Miguel concession block near Temoris, Chihuahua, Mexico. The trenches are located in the new La Veronica zone and have extended the zone south towards San Antonio, where previous drill results of 468 g/t silver with 0.81% lead + zinc across 10.2 meters, including 5,370 g/t silver across 0.4 meters true width, have been reported.

In August 2005, Tara Gold Resources Corp. signed an agreement with Paramount Gold Mining Corp. giving Paramount the right to earn up to a 70% interest in the project. Paramount has earned its interest and Tara Gold continues to retain a 30% interest in the project. Paramount is the operator of the exploration program.
Paramount's Manager of Exploration in Mexico, Bill Reed, commented, "The trench results at La Veronica compare very well with earlier trenches from other zones. More importantly, these results continue to infill this zone that possibly extends the total strike length about 2,000 meters to the north from San Antonio. Our drill and trench results at La Union, San Jose, San Luis, San Antonio, Santa Clara and La Veronica have now identified a mineralized zone over a considerable length of approximately 5.7 kilometers (5,700 meters) and it remains open in all directions."

CHIHUAHUA, MEXICO--(MARKET WIRE)--Aug 30, 2007 -- Paramount Gold & Silver Corp. (AMEX:PZG - News)(Frankfurt:P6G.F - News)(WKN: A0HGKQ) is pleased to announce trenching results from its ongoing exploration program in the central part of its San Miguel concession block near Temoris, Chihuahua, Mexico. These 18 trenches are located in the new La Veronica zone, and have extended the zone south towards San Antonio, where Paramount reported drill results of 468 g/t silver with 0.81% lead + zinc across 10.2 meters, including 5,370 g/t silver across 0.4 meters true width.
Paramount's Manager of Exploration in Mexico, Bill Reed, commented, "The trench results at La Veronica compare very well with earlier trenches from other zones.

Our drill and trench results at La Union, San Jose, San Luis, San Antonio, Santa Clara and La Veronica have now identified a mineralized zone over a considerable length of approximately 5.7 kilometers (5,700 meters) and it remains open in all directions."
The trenches are excavated to a depth of 2-3 meters and extend from west to east across the quartz veins and stockwork quartz veins that host silver and gold mineralization in the Guazapares mining district. The trenches were cut through thin overburden to better define drill targets and were spaced approximately 50 to 75 meters apart. The geology of the trenches is mapped in detail and continuous rock chip samples are collected from the trench walls. In altered areas of the trench, continuous rock chip samples of no more than one meter in length are collected. Elsewhere, samples are still collected, but sample lengths can be more than one meter.

completely agree with your analysis
Anyone looked at LVDL.OB Would appreciate any feedback...
It was YPNT.OB at 66 Fri and did a 10-1 RS bringing OS down to 4.8mm. Very similar to Craigs List (which is private). Played around with website and not much for sale in my area but has a ton under forclosures list and land for sale. It costs basically $10 per week to check those forclosures and not sure how much they get from that entity that provides the real estate section, but I am sure some. If it comes down some I will enter as there is a lot of demand for Craigs List types. Has $50,000 month income from Canadian website hosting until 2010. Currently $6.60 x $7.40

China Blesses Hong Kong
By Christopher Hancock
August 24, 2007
On Monday, Beijing announced that it would permit mainland Chinese citizens to invest in the Hong Kong stock market. The proposal allows Chinese citizens to open accounts at the Tianjin branch of the Bank of China, and then sell renminbi (RMB) and buy Hong Kong dollars without limit for the purpose of buying shares in Hong Kong.
The news sent the index of Hong Kong-listed shares in mainland companies up by 8.74%, their biggest one-day rise since May 2000. This should also go a long way in easing speculative pressure on the Shanghai A-share market.
This is probably the most important financial development in China since their entry into the World Trade Organization in 2001. So you all were a little surprised the announcement was delegated to page six in the Financial Times.
Once again, the cover story focused on the U.S. liquidity crunch. If you’re looking for liquidity, there’s arguably no better place to turn than China.
China had accumulated foreign exchange reserves in excess of $1.33 trillion at the end of June. Total national household savings in China are estimated to be roughly $2.2 trillion.
With regards to the “bigger picture,” releasing capital account control is the next step towards the eventual flotation of the RMB. This move should allow many on Capitol Hill to take a deep breath.
China took the first step towards currency liberalization in December 1996, when it made the renminbi convertible for current account transactions, removing both quantitative and regulatory restrictions on the use of foreign exchange for current account transactions. China’s WTO accession in 2001 has also been seen as a catalyst for capital account liberalization and currency convertibility.
For lack of a better description, the current account is the difference between a nation's total exports of goods, services and transfers to its total imports of the same. Relaxing the current account has allowed Chinese manufacturers to feed American consumers. Thus far, this has been primary fuel feeding the Chinese economy.
A current account deficit occurs when a country's total imports of goods and services are greater than the country's total exports. This situation makes a country a net debtor to the rest of the world.
See the U.S.
A current account surplus is just the opposite. Exports of goods, services and transfers are greater than imports.
See China.
The next natural step in liberalization is the capital account. Once again, for lack of a better description, the capital account is the net result of public and private international investments flowing into and out of a country.
Allowing mainland Chinese citizens to invest in the Hong Kong stock market signifies the most significant move to date by Beijing officials to liberalize the country's capital account. This policy will allow the roughly $2.2 trillion conveniently stashed underneath one billion or so mattresses to find a better home with a better return.
But don’t go expecting the Chinese to float the RMB anytime soon. They are firm believers in gradualism. It’s taken more than 10 years to get from current account liberalization to this point. I would suspect it’s going to take many more before we reach full floatation.
But let’s forget the currency issue for a moment. The real winner here is undoubtedly the Hong Kong market, especially H-share companies that don't have either a Shanghai or Shenzhen listing.
As Zhao Xiao, a professor of Beijing’s University of Science and Technology, said: “Remember, if all Chinese money can go to Hong Kong, then many global firms will favor listing in Hong Kong.”
According to our friends at CNBC, an official at Bank of China in Tianjin said the scheme was due to be up and running by September.
Less than two weeks and counting… The time is now.
Until Next Time,
Christopher Hancock
Chase where is that from...I don't see it on Y or blog and its 2 days old

Glad you are back from India, but lets let Larry stay focused on getting it off the ground here. There is still so much to be done here before getting entangled elsewhere. Build the brand and sell out and let them take it wherever they want.
My HYBY shares at Etrade shows now as ZTTRF, not HBDY. Do your accounts show HBDY? also in girlfriends etrade account as ZTTRF

Tara Gold Announces New Open Pit Assay Results at La Currita Confirm Grades
Monday August 20, 9:05 am ET
CHICAGO, IL--(MARKET WIRE)--Aug 20, 2007 -- Tara Gold Resources Corp. (Other OTC:TRGD.PK - News) (Frankfurt:T8N.F - News) is pleased to confirm new open pit assay results from the La Currita gold and silver project in Temoris, Mexico.
In May of 2007, Tara Gold signed a Joint Venture Agreement with Raven Gold Corp. giving Raven the option to earn up to 60% interest in the La Currita Groupings by making certain payments to Tara Gold, issuing 1,500,000 shares, making all remaining property payments, which have been made, and spending a minimum of $4.25 million over 30 months.
Raven Gold, as exploration operator, announced that ALS Chemex Labs confirmed assays on six chip samples for the newly developed open pit area of the La Currita Mine. David Peterson, P. Eng., on behalf of Raven Gold, took the six samples on July 19, 2007, in an effort to check the high silver and gold assays from earlier samplings.
The samples were taken in two horizontal lines, 2 meters and 5 meters below the crest of the pit. Each sample was 1 meter in length and was taken across the exposed and accessible width of the pit. Only a small portion of the total width was sampled due to recent blasting. The Sulema vein is approximately 8 meters wide and has been traced on surface for 1,100 meters along strike and is open on both ends. The central 440 meters has been explored by 5 levels spaced approximately 25 meters apart, vertically. The mineralization is continuous from surface thru the 5 levels.
David Petersen, P. Eng., shipped the samples to the Chemex Prep. Lab in Chihuahua, Mexico and they were analyzed in Vancouver, British Columbia. It was determined by Raven Gold that the open pit area should be given extreme priority, both in the North and South zones. The results are shown below:
Sample No. Au g/T Ag g/T
B648705 5.51 544
B648706 0.43 53
B648707 0.4 64
B648708 4.07 391
B648709 30.3 1,975
B6487010 7.05 979
Average 7.99 668
Mr. Francis Biscan Jr., President of Tara Gold Resources, stated, "We continue to get results from La Currita that exceed our expectations. We look forward to the results from further exploration and sampling at La Currita."
About La Currita
The La Currita Groupings includes 4 mines, a 300 ton/day operating floatation mill and stockpiled ore. The La Currita mine was in steady production from 1983 until 1998. A diamond drilling exploration program conducted in 1998 indicated grades of 2.59 g/t Au and 200 g/t Ag. Existing mines and mineralized structures hold potential to increase tonnage through systematic exploration. The area surrounding La Currita has numerous mines and recent substantial discoveries. Adjacent to the La Currita holdings, Palmarejo recently merged with Coeur d'Alene Mines Corporation and Bolnisi Gold NL, in a transaction valued at approximately US$1.1 billion, creating the world's leading primary silver producer. In addition, about 20 miles to the SE is the 170,000 ounce/year Glamis Gold's El Sauzal gold mine and 40 miles to the North is Gammon Lake Resource's Ocampo Gold-Silver Project with a projected 270,000 gold-equivalent ounces/year.
About Tara Gold Resources Corp.
I think you are parsing statements to no effect. Buckethead had an idea but without being put into action he had nothing. By having an artistic idea he has a job. In very small companies every member brings something to the venture. Buckethead thru an agreement formed Short Bus between Tim and Larry to do business and is now part of HKBV. Tim and Larry have known each other for quite awhile and they decided to come together and produce a superior product rather than go it alone and never stand out from the crowd. Got it?
I beleive Tara Minerals will not or can not be spun off until financials are current
from Pinnacle
In respect to Tara Gold Resources Corp. we are interested in learning more about their recent news, current objectives and direction moving forward. Our attention was warranted by the fact their next 5 drill holes are planned for the El Negro target area. A historical resource of 13.53 million tonnes grading 260 g/t Ag and 0.31 g/t Au has been defined. We are awaiting assay results and will be continuing our review upon Tara as they develop this property.
The value and demand of crude oil is an all consuming product which affects almost every aspect of the market. Crude oil rose for a third day on concern that two storms may disrupt supply in the Gulf of Mexico. Reports are stating that Dean may strengthen to a category 4 hurricane by next week as it crosses the Caribbean. Crude oil touched a record on August 1st trading up to $78.77. It traded to $71.88 a barrel Thursday. Concerns the US economy will slow has reduced the overall demand of oil as fuel supplies begin to grow. The Energy Department has reported that stockpiles dropped 2.24 million barrels two weeks ago after imports plunged and demand reached a two year high. We believe the summer driving season will continue to be a contributing factor to any rise in demand. Many oil and gas companies fluctuate with the value of oil. These companies will be a focus at our digest over the summer months and heading into the fall. On August 3rd oil stockpiles of 340.4 million barrels in the United States were reported. This is 11% higher than usual for this time of year.
PinnacleDigest is currently very focused on the mining and resource based sectors. The TSX Venture Exchange was torn down Thursday falling 215 points to close at 2445.23. There are many junior companies operating within the North American markets that we are tracking closely.
Commodities fell across the board yesterday as investors were driven to sell assets to raise cash. The dollar gained against the euro Tuesday reducing the appeal of both gold and silver. Continued speculation that the US economy will keep the Federal Reserve from raising rates has raised the appeal of gold. July proved to be gold’s first monthly gain since April. Gold futures for December fell Thursday to close at $646.40 an ounce. Many experts are predicting the dollar may continue to slide against the euro. Central Banks have been selling gold reserves to drive down the price and calm investors. We will be watching the selling levels very closely over the coming weeks and months. Silver futures fell on Thursday to close at $11.70 for September delivery.
Copper futures fell Thursday on fear that global losses in the financial market will curb economic growth. Global and domestic economic expansion moves the market. The general concern around the slowing US economy has also reduced demand. Global demand continues to pressure the current supply and we are not worried about a quick recovery by the metal. In the second quarter China’s economy reportedly expanded at the fastest pace in 12 years. Copper for December delivery fell to $3.123 per pound Thursday. Concern that the US housing slump will curb consumption is a major factor affecting the value of copper. The fundamentals are in place for the value of copper to increase. We believe that when the credit crunch passes, copper will be revalued upwards. One of our more recent weekly volumes describes the variables affecting copper in detail.
We believe very strongly in the current commodity boom and believe that the declines in copper and other base metals will be short-lived. We are closely monitoring companies with major molybdenum deposits as this metal approaches a two year high.
The TSX and Venture exchanges are heavily weighted in the mining and resource based industries. For that reason we monitor this index very closely. The mining industry will be a major focus at PinnacleDigest over the coming months as their main season takes command. There are many mining and resources based companies we are continually following and updating our review upon.
Buckethead was 1 guy. He or it is part of HKBV. Buskethead is the artistic side of the company as Tim came up with the unique bottle design for Pumped Fitness and the various labels including Road Kill. But it or he is part of HKBV. Larry showed me the labels for Road Kill and they have all sorts of quips on them......
Green Gopher Guts has a cartoon balloon saying
"I didn't see that coming when I read my Horoscope this morning"
and on the back
Don't wqorry Mom...It looks gross...tastes great....and is good for you
Road kill seems to be an energy drink for kids with no sugar, carbs or protein
it has 50% of the daily value of
Vitamin A, B6, B12 and Niacin
Any company we look at has to have a distibution system. Not necessarily product, but a good group of distributors that we could fold into our distribution group. We have 27 distributors with maybe 2/3 really good. Maybe the others just need a good product, I don't know. But key to growth is a unique product, which I feel Pumped Fitness is, with excellent distribution and reasonable geographical bottleing. The last 2 are the reasons Larry is on the road. I hope we set up 3 or 4 more bottling lines to save on shipping product.
It was too brief as he had to get to Greenville, MS to meet someone else. I enjoyed very much meeting Larry and I am impressed with his drive and energy. He is very very knowledgable about the business, the competitors, distribution and manufacturing.
We are in Southern CA Walgreens and Albertsons only as regional area distribution. Hopefully Road Kill will be nationwide.
Great response to Pumped Fitness and Road Kill.
It takes a lot of legal paperwork for those shares to be RETIRED, but that is the plan, not just returned to the treasury. The attorney is working on it and should be done by sometime in Oct as the SEC is a full blown bureacracy. Ideally he wants to reduce authorized to 250mm, outstanding to 150mm. You can't just tear up the returned certificates like a check, but many shares were not signed when returned and the assholes say you have your shares back, leave me alone etc and its a nightmare, but there is a time limit on them and will run out on them sometime in Oct and then we switch from Fidelity to American transfer agent and at that point the TA can dispose of them
I look forward to around Thanksgiving and see how much has been done, but again I was impressed
