So you have this company that is failing miserably. PPS dwindling, business going nowhere. Nothing verifiable from the company. All down down down. So, next, we'll do an R/S. Snazzy! All the shareholders are like, "Forget You Vinny!"... or w/e. And then while all are sitting on the sidelines or holding strong or just AFK because.. you know WHATEVER VINNY! So yeah, nice and calm and non-diluted... hey PPS goes up. NEAT! Well, doesn't go up too much people are sort of like, "ehh.. grumble grumble.. where is my short interest money, this is going to .00000000000000314159265358979323846264 and I'll be a mad short interest genious!" I know that sounds like a safe bet to me. So obvious, especially to people with money to make the real play. Buy the shares up and burn shorty! And some people scratch their head more 200%+ gain on this? Based on... WHAT? Oh.. yeah, shorty got burnt so that's cool. (rolling my eyes at the naievity) Okay, so the initial suckers (shorts) were burnt, what next? Hmmmm well, we could start walking it back down to .0001. Why the hell not, we are at .03+ and we can string people along nice and slow just like we've been doing for years! Yes, GENIOUS! Or... wait... no, they believed in all our other crap for so many years let's give them more crap. Hey! Where's my urban thesaurus.. what's that hippy new phrase for Crap? Bio-Fuels!!?!? YES!! GENIOUS! Hmm, But I don't know how long people will eat this crap so let's say something like... you know.. A FEW DAYS and we'll have more on this new crap. That might get some positive speculation or you know buy us a little more time to string this along... LOL!!! omg, seriously people.
If I'm wrong... god I hope I'm wrong lol. Otherwise... go find the police booking photos of that CEO from CKYS. Pictures like that may be the only picture you ever see of the PTPC CEO. Yeah, anyone ever seen a picture of Paradigm's CEO anyway? Any links?? LOL!! Right!
People will continue to buy until someone gets hauled off to jail... just like with CKYS.
Can someone please update the i-box? I'm pretty sure the weight of any "buy back" is pretty minimal. Or if you're going to leave it at the top in big font go ahead and include that it's not verifiable or possibly FAILED. Also, it's no longer PDGT. I'm sure the list goes on.
Thanks
Yeah... thanks..
I believe the PR said, "up to..." 200M shares to buy back. Communication from the company has been horrible. Investors aren't given the time of day. Paradigm has failed to follow through.
I'd have to agree with whoever said shorting is the way to go.
However, it would seem like there would be something to this R/S. Or, maybe just another attempt at P&D. Who knows.
From someone that's been watching this for a few years, I'd say the probability of this being good for investors is slim.
I did get an e-mail once from the PR folks suggesting that I "keep the faith" becuase they are...
The company does have record of successful contracts with the gov't. I think they are viewable through GSA. But that's stale. They are supposed to be distributing though some big catalog company but no one's been able to verify.
So yeah, nothing really that great. Just hurry up and wait for investors that got burnt.
People bought this on the premise that the Stealth Sensor is part of what they are investing in. So, shareholder should have their shares converted to the new company if that is where the vested resources went...
No more website? We are overdue for that quarterly update...
At the moment there is only talk of an R/S.
IMO
My gist of what's going on:
There's talk of a R/S. Serious talk but just talk at the moment. So, it's not without the realm of possibility that in a few months it could just blow over w/o a R/S ever happening. Then the "talk" would be, "remember when there was talk of an R/S?"
I know, I tend to be too optopmistic but I also try to look at a lot of different variables in the equation....
Multi-million revenue company with ground breaking patents...
3/5 successful lawsuit against Toyota and pursuing satisfaction on that suit.
Whatever, I hope it goes down more and the other stock I'm in goes up because I really would like more Solomon although it does seem like a risky time to even consider it.
Big picture tho... It's interesting to think of where this could be in the next 5-10 years.

Good things come to those who wait.
IMO
More buys than sells too.
Buys outpaced the sells today and a 3.5M after hour BUY.
Patience, people.
All imo.
But what does it say about the company that promoted them? Are they in the business of promoting unworthy companies? Hmmm... Pendulum swings both ways... slipper slope, etc...
Keep the faith. Paradigm is. Good faith has not yet been violated. Paradigm is working hard and selling products. Stay tuned!
I got a reply to my e-mail from the IR department. They said at this time there is no full/part time representation in the IR dept. There will be. Also, they intend to communicate with shareholders soon. There are tech delays in manufacturing of two base products but progress is moving forward. In the mean time, Newscan sales are happening!
I'm very happy that they answered a few e-mails now.

Paradigm was actually starting to look good a few months ago. But now it's getting worse by the minute. No info from the company. Not a single reply to ANYONE's e-mails to the IR department. Webpage that hasn't been updated. Business location that is mysterious at best. Phone number that no one even answers any more.
Oh and if you call the fax machine:Fax : 978-747-7303... It's not a fax machine!!! It's someone's answering machine/mail box. Hello... Paradigm, WAKE UP AND GET YOUR BUT IN GEAR.
Patience has just about run out for most here if it didn't already in 2008...
So the glaring question, imo, is was your source a representative of Paradigm or was it generated out of the Peanut Gallery rumor mill?
Yep, everyone is waiting... Pardigm's silence is deafening.
What's the word, Thunderbird? Anyone know when Paradigm will communicate with the world again? Shouldn't be bad mojo to at least tell us when we can expect the next PR on wtf is going on.
Nice action today. Now for some news, imo.
What's with the trading? all sells and at prices in penny land??? whiskey tengo foxtrot. I never knew that was an option or I would have sold at much higher prices!
Wow... It's like someone is waving a big FU at all of us cheated investors. And right before Christmas, REAL classy!
I wonder who is behind all this? Hmmm... I wonder who it could be.
Yes, he was acquitted...
And he proceeded to leave the courthouse in a carriage drawn by magical unicorns.
lol... SIKE
If Paradigm is unable to follow through with the intended disclosure of an Income Statement and Balance Sheet by EOY then, IMO, they need to put forth a good faith PR with a decent rationale along with any other pertinent information.
It shouldn't be that hard to compose a paragraph or two...
Oh and... yes I'm happy with the trading action today :) It's nice to see all the chearleading and now we deserve some touchdowns and slam dunks!
Happy Holidays :)

Well the rest of us real people are working out here on main street so I hope Paradigm is doing the same. It would be nice to hear something and SOON. Waiting until January just to at least give an update would be pretty disrespectful, IMO. I'm getting the feeling that may be what's in store and that will definitly take down my opinion of Paradigm a bit if that's what happens.
Been pretty quiet this weekend. I just had some thoughts about message boards in general... basically about verifying credentials... but I won't go into it. PM me if interested in discussion.
Trades and communication show folks trying to chip away at the PPS but so far steady as she goes and the same bid/ask.
Awesome, thank you!
I 100% agree. I run away from dodgy people that aren't up front. Good or bad, just be honest and keep working hard. Honesty and hard work pay. Crime does not.
Thanks, I will accept!
Can you at least give some ballpark figure on the amount of the bill?
Someone that "you" know? Oh... who could it beeee? Seems like some pretty easy connect the dot logical assumptions could be made and wow... If that's the case... just wow!
That's a lot of smoke and mirrors you veil yourself behind.
"I'd rather not say"
right...
I wonder if it were the Pinks & BB advertisers??? That would really make P&BB look foolish if that were the case since they already posted on their webste that they had been paid.
Regardless, it still makes P&BB look foolish if they represented a company that "can't pay their own bills"... LOL
And I know there are those reading this that get uncomfortable about that!
Silly stock promoters... Trix are for kids.
Paradigm is real.
What bill did they not pay?
What's your source?
When did you know about this?
Are you certain this is significant?
Are you certain it will prevent Paradigm from buying back shares as intended?
Are you certain Paradigm will not release income and balance sheets?
The bid/ask never changed. Remained at .0002 x .0003. Anyone able to get some at .0002? Doesn't look like it from the trade info for the day.
My confidence is not based on anonymous message board posters. And your accusation below (in quotes) is false. In addition to publicly documented releases of corporate information, my confidence is based on orders from several federal, state and local organizations, appropriate routing of sales leads that verify distributorship of products claimed by Paradigm in public releases, a verified law suit, and more follow-through on publicly released corporate information.
IMO, investors that view the short period of time the new CEO has had to work with Paradigm as a catastrophe should not be investing and are very short-sighted.
"Your confidence in this stock is based solely on believing company Press Releases 100%."
It's not a loss until you sell. There is no proof that this company has failed. There is only a lot of negative speculation. Paradigm still has time.
Must've been a glitch. It's straightened back out now. .0002 x .0003.
News today?
Anyone have insight on the .0006 ask? Just a glitch?
Paradigm made this crazy claim a while back that they would be looking into new products... That is, the new CEO (Vinny) would be trying to add new products. Since then, Paradigm has been named as main US distributor for SamYoung Tech of their metal/radiation detection systems. This has been verified by at least two independent investors. Then there is the Stealth Sensor that so many negative posters dismiss with ZERO proof to say that it's not coming. If the Stealth Sensor is delayed or is not coming then Paradigm needs to speak to that issue SOON. We know that paradigm has a pre-order form a US Army unit for the Stealth Sensor... If Paradigm lied about that it's a federal offense. I doubt Paradigm lied.
This was proven true:
"Paradigm Tactical Products Files 5 Million Dollar Lawsuit Against ACG, Inc."
You can believe that they will make quarterly reports of O/S and we'll know soon if they follow through with more pertinent financial data:
"The accurate disclosure of pertinent financial information is essential for investors to make informed decisions about the valuation of a company. Paradigm Tactical Products will begin disclosure of pertinent information starting in the second quarter of 2008. This will begin with the quarterly reporting of outstanding shares and capitalization structure on the Pinksheets.com web site. The company intends to expand this reporting by year end to include an Income Statement and a Balance Sheet. The company will continue to provide timely release of material news as it occurs."
"We believe, based on completed sales and anticipated orders, that the company will have a net income of approximately $200,000 for the fiscal year ending December 31st, 2008."
Chew on that :)
