Sorry if I dont feel the need to continue a public debate on this board. I think its pretty clear where we both stand. We obviously have a difference of opinion, but its not about me or you.
I do find it ironic and interesting that you said "word is" when you have previously critiqued PizzaCow for saying similar things without providing a source.
"word" from where/whom?

Bookham Third Quarter Fiscal Year 2008 Financial Results Represent Strong Year-Over-Year Improvement
Monday April 28, 4:00 pm ET
SAN JOSE, Calif., April 28 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Bookham, Inc. (Nasdaq: BKHM - News), a leading provider of optical components, modules and subsystems, today announced financial results for its third quarter of fiscal year 2008, ended March 29, 2008.
Third Quarter Fiscal 2008 GAAP Results
Revenue for the third quarter of fiscal 2008 was $59.7 million, an increase of 33 percent from $45.0 million in the third quarter of fiscal 2007 and 1 percent over the second quarter of fiscal 2008.
Gross margin in the third fiscal quarter was 22 percent, up 12 percentage points from 10 percent in the same quarter last year and down 1 percentage point from last quarter. Third quarter fiscal 2008 net loss of $5.4 million, or a net loss of $0.05 per share, compares with a net loss of $24.3 million, or a net loss of $0.35 per share, in the third quarter last year, and a net loss of $5.2 million, or a net loss of $0.06 per share, last quarter.
Cash, cash equivalents, short term investments and restricted cash at the end of March 2008 were $54.7 million, compared with $64.7 million at the end of the December 2007.
Third Quarter Fiscal 2008 Non-GAAP Results
Adjusted EBITDA for the third fiscal quarter was negative $1.1 million, an improvement of approximately $13.0 million when compared with negative Adjusted EBITDA of $14.1 million in the third quarter of fiscal 2007. Adjusted EBITDA in the second quarter of fiscal 2008 was positive $0.3 million.
Non-GAAP gross margin of 23 percent, which excludes stock compensation of $380,000, represents an increase of 12 percentage points from 11 percent in the third quarter of fiscal 2007. Non-GAAP gross margin last quarter was 24 percent.
Third quarter fiscal 2008 non-GAAP net loss of $3.4 million, or $0.03 per share, compares with a non-GAAP net loss of $18.7 million, or net loss of $0.27 per share, in the third quarter of fiscal 2007 and a non-GAAP net loss of $1.1 million, or a net loss of $0.01 per share, in the prior quarter. A reconciliation table of non-GAAP measures to the most comparable GAAP measures is included in the financial tables section of this release and further discussion of these measures is also included later in this release.
Non-cash stock and option-based compensation for the third quarters of fiscal 2008 and fiscal 2007, and the second quarter of fiscal 2008, were $1.2 million, $1.3 million and $2.7 million, respectively. Included in the second quarter fiscal 2008 results were $1.5 million of expense related to performance based vesting of stock.
"The year-over-year financial improvement is very significant and the result of the initiatives implemented last year to increase revenue and lower costs. Increased revenue came mostly from strategic products that are important to our long-term success. These include tunable products, 980nm pumps, and high power lasers. Also, the cost reduction measures we put in place have yielded approximately $9 million in quarterly infrastructure savings from the December 2006 quarter levels and have reduced product costs," said Alain Couder, president and CEO of Bookham Inc. "Our outlook for the remainder of calendar 2008 is positive. We continue to see increasing demand for our newer telecom products, and we are reducing our non-telecom product manufacturing overheads through leveraging our low-cost Shenzhen manufacturing facility. These cost improvements should translate into better margin results. We believe that continued revenue growth, margin improvement on our new products, and overhead cost management during the second half of 2008 will result in a transition to positive cash flow from operations before the end of the calendar year."
Fourth Quarter Fiscal 2008 Outlook
For the fourth quarter of fiscal 2008, ending June 28, 2008, excluding restructuring and other non-recurring charges, the Company expects:
-- Revenue in the range of $58 million to $63 million
-- Non-GAAP gross margin between 21 percent and 25 percent
-- Adjusted EBITDA of negative $3 million to positive $1 million
I would expect the US to be trying harder to get their greedy hands on our Canadian Oil Sands.....looks like France is beating them to it...
Total to Acquire Canada's Synenco for C$480 Million
By Sonja Franklin and Eduard Gismatullin
April 28 (Bloomberg) -- Total SA, Europe's third-largest oil company, agreed to buy Synenco Energy Inc. for about C$480 million ($475 million) to expand production from the Athabasca oil-sands in northeastern Alberta.
Total will pay $9 each for all of Synenco's shares, a 16 percent premium over Friday's closing price, the Paris-based company said today in a statement. Synenco's board recommends the offer to shareholders, Michael Supple, the company's Chief Executive Officer, told investors on a conference call today.
``This acquisition is in line with Total's strategy of expanding its heavy oil operations in the Athabasca region, an industry segment with significant long-term development potential,'' Total said.
Total plans to spend $10 billion to $15 billion over ten years to develop the oil sands. The company operates the Joslyn project, which began production in 2006, and in December started commercial output from the Surmont venture with its partner ConocoPhillips.
Calgary-based Synenco's main asset is a 60 percent stake in the Northern Lights Project about 100 kilometers (62 miles) northeast of Alberta's oil-sands hub of Fort McMurray. China Petrochemical Corp. holds the remaining 40 percent.
Synenco said in May 2007 it was looking at alternatives that may include a sale or merger after the cost to build an oil-sands processing plant soared 75 percent. The company last month said it was unlikely to build the so-called upgrader.
The acquisition offer will be valid for about 35 to 45 days once the circular has been sent to shareholders, which is expected in the coming days, Total said.
TD Securities Inc. and Merrill Lynch Canada Inc. advised Synenco, the company said in a separate statement.
Synenco shares rose C$1.18, or 15 percent, to C$8.97 on the Toronto Stock Exchange. Total added 23 cents to 52.72 euros in Paris.

Earnings report on Monday after the bell.
Tsafi....Looks like a classic head and shoulders bottom.
Your thoughts?
(I know, I know, risky to hold thru earnings release)
lol, I hear ya.
I thought both those videos were great!
Event, video shoots, afterparty, a packed house...
Thanks for acknowledging, I was beginning to wonder if anyone even bothered to watch.
Isnt this what we want to see?
Well, at this point, there really hasnt been any significant price movement in either direction, it continues to hover from low 5s to 7 cents regardless of daily volume. Although I do think there is some MM manipulation, I also think there is a some flipping going on. For example, Picking up 20K at .055 and selling at .065 is an easy 200 bucks. Although I havent been flipping this, I often look for stocks like this for easy day trades.
If this was trading millions of shares daily and still going down, I would be concerned.
All last week, we saw higher lows, so I think a .07 break and an increase in volume will come with News. Hopefully we hear soon from Dr. Ben and/or an update on the the Miami HHSS.

If I felt the way he does I would just sell and never look back.
To outright accuse the company of doing something "illegal", is crossing a whole new line here.
IMO, H3 is providing information on pink sheets in order to maintain their "current information" status and appease investors. Most pinks dont provide anything and thus have the big STOP sign on pink sheets.
The whole point of going public is to raise capital. If you want to see some really nasty financing deals, look at anything that uses Cornell Capital. Financing deals like this are not uncommon on the pinks and often are much worse.
What I dont understand is why now suddenly the promissary note filing from almost 4 months ago is the current topic of conversation. It's old news and appears to be just another tactic to keep a negative sentiment surrounding the stock.
I cannot just assume that the BOD are just pocketing fists full of cash, they could be reinvesting into the future of the company, or financing the conversion for the newest HHSS in Miami. Who knows. I read the filings when they originally came out and I am still holding.
It wasnt me, take it up with admin...
Directly from the TOU...
Should you have a post removed, and you disagree, or want to know why, we ask that you take this up with IH Admin (Matt) privately and *not* on the board on which it happened.
This is pretty cool also...(especially the ending)

Then why were you buying puts yesterday? I'm confused.
To answer your earlier question...
Hint: Call Silquis Steak & Seafood.
Actually, I would hope that they are busy working on a MS deal or the opening of the 2nd HHSS and not sitting around reading this board. However, I do agree a conf call would be beneficial to keep shareholders informed of their current progress.
I apologize, I did misinterpret your post based on contradicting yourself with 'SEC quotes'...lol
Anyway, regardess, I am not defending the BOD, I am only explaining that I still feel there is a great potential for the pps to increase from here. The first location has been open for just under a quarter with potentially a second location open as early as Memorial Day. I havent given up, or I would have sold. Its tiring reading how someone so upset would continue to hold and then attempt to bash it down further. Just makes NO sense to me.
I have to agree with you completely on that post!!!
Its not that strange really.
On Tuesday when the volume was 1.2million, all the action except for about 10K was in the first hour and the last hour of the day.

Agreed.
"Investing should be more like watching paint dry or watching grass grow. If you want excitement, take $800 and go to Las Vegas."
Paul Samuelson
Agreed, we are on the same page...
and please do continue to post your thoughts and opinions on this board, it is informative and appreciated.
I think you already know, but here are just a few points anyway...
A shareholder action group deters potential new investors and even current shareholders from buying the stock.
Current longs might sell. As it appears in the action today..
Could scare off potential franchise interest. Lets say your ready to hand over your cash and invest in a franchise and then you hear about a shareholder action group.
Could impact current or future deals the company is working on. Perhaps H3 is working on a big deal with MS or trying to bring in Russell and they hear about this 'group'.
The company could dilute to reduce the potential impact of a shareholder group.
It wastes company time and money that could be better spent elsewhere.
Dr. Ben stated already he expected to hold a shareholder meeting around June.
Lets say hypothetically, you were able to actually get a legitimate group formed....then what, you boot some people off the BOD? Then what? Then a disgruntled ex-board member dumps all their shares. Are you going to run the company? Do you have the money and the contacts to make things happen quicker?
The first store has barely been open a quarter. They have plans for a second location in Miami. They are working on a potential deal with MS. They plan to open more stores this year with expansion internationally.
Focusing on those things instead of rehashing mistakes of the past is what will encourage new buying and move the price up. Trying to tear the company down is only going to lead to a continued erosion of the share price.
All an 'action group' will accomplish is to continue to create a negative sentiment on the board and surrounding the stock.
All just my opinion...
...........
"I hope some animal never bores a hole in your head and lays its eggs in your brain, because later you might think you're having a good idea but it's just eggs hatching."
Jack Handy
Well, Do you really think its helping?
Did you ever consider that perhaps some readers from this board are selling because they believe a shareholders action group could bring the pps down further?
Shaking my head...

No, thats a copy cat low budget version, hip hop grub spot.
That store is not affiliated with H3.
The information is clearly available in the filings on pink sheets..
Authorized Shares: 250,000,000
Outstanding Shares: 187,986,993 as of Dec 31, 2007
Float: 104,980,292 as of Dec 17, 2007
I think everyone needs to step back for a minute and give their head a shake. This is a PINK SHEET company.
IMO, A shareholder action group could be detrimental at this point. If really forced, the BOD could just issue more shares, spin off, merge, RS, almost anything to very quickly and easily render the 'group' useless. How would you feel then?
I dont understand why some holders of this stock continue to sh*t in their own sandbox...
The company put out some great news last week, and yet the main topic of conversation is counting shares. If you dont believe in the future potential, why not just move on. If you think that counting shares on an internet board is going to help you get your money back, then you are dilusional. You have no way of knowing if any of the posted numbers are even remotely accurate.
What this stock needs is new investors, volume, momentum and a positive reaction to News in order to move up.
As a shareholder, how can you not see that?
Are you really helping or hurting your investment?
H3 Raises HipHopSodaShop Projections
Thursday April 3, 9:00 am ET
Company's Ability to Cut 70% From Build-Out Costs and Start-Up Time Increases First Year Performance Expectations by More Than 300%; 6-8 Additional SodaShops Now Expected to Open in '08
NEW YORK, NY--(MARKET WIRE)--Apr 3, 2008 -- H3Enterprises, Inc. (Other OTC:HTRE.PK - News) has today revealed a comprehensive plan to rapidly grow its HipHopSodaShops around the USA and Canada. The new Business Model features as much as a 70% reduction in start up costs and build-out related construction time with no loss of quality or value.
After successfully opening its flagship store in Tampa Florida in December 2007, H3 has been concurrently working six (6) other US locations with potential Franchisees and/or Joint Venture Partners located in Miami, Gainesville, Chicago, Atlanta, Atlantic City, and in New York. H3 has also made significant headway into the start-up of Canadian HHSS operations beginning with Quebec and moving west towards Montreal and Toronto.
The common thread learned while searching potential SodaShop sites is that there are many facilities available that are fully equipped for lease or sale that can be easily transformed into HipHopSodaShops for a great deal less cost and time than what's required to open a new unit or complete a major remodeling job. This strategic breakthrough greatly increases the pool of eligible SodaShop franchisees, the number of stores that can be converted in any given time period, and together, H3's capability to achieve maximum growth for franchise sales and related franchise revenues.
H3's original projections call for the opening of 2 additional Shops this year at a cost of about $1,000,000/unit for the Company and/or its Franchisees. There are a number of national and regional chains of Sports Bar Restaurants and Clubs that are available throughout the country looking for takeover suitors due to lagging sales. This formula for finding facilities is working to perfection for H3 as a ready-made supply of "convertible SodaShops" while the Company begins to aggressively expand its award winning concept to the entire Hip Hop Generation.
H3 is expecting to add another 6-8 HHSS units this year and is currently working with a number of major financial institutions to purchase the HHSS properties. H3 will lease back the facilities to the Franchisees. A future goal of owning a minimum of 50% of the real estate will add stabilizing asset value to H3's financials.
It was deleted by Ihub admin and he was booted.
My guess is somebody from this board created a second account and ihub admin booted them for violation of the TOU.
I understand being impatient, at least now the balls are rolling and they are making forward progress. For now, I dont think posting a public share count is necessary.
We finally got some news today, I'm focusing on that.
Looks like Ben and the BOD are still in tact and working together. Which is very good news!
