Anytime, the info on Wardi owning half the preferred can be found on the FINRA brokercheck report for the firm Carlton Capital.
According to the FINRA report for Chris Messalas, he is solely registered with the Brookstone Securities office in Lakeland, Florida. So it appears he migrated down south to a warmer (and hopefully more lucrative) climate. Lakeland is just a hop skip and jump from Cocoa, Florida which is ground zero for UEEC and TheraBiogen and NASA. Hopefully Chris will launch us into orbit!
To flip, maybe so, but I would be very hesitant to go Long on GE IMHO.
GE is headed for ~ $8.00 IMHO.
.0025 x .004 next stop .008 and then to pennyland!
GLTY! .0028 x .008
.0028 x .005
I agree, but my target is .30 and I will only sell enough to break even and ride the rest for what its worth!
Sesame Workshop and Genius Products are planning to release two all new DVDs this April - one celebrating the environment and going green; and one celebrating reading and pirates.
Sesame Street: Being Green (April 7, 2009)
Elmo and Abby pitch in to help Mr. Earth (actor Paul Rudd in a hilariously large costume) host Sesame Street's first Earth-a-Thon. Mr. Earth teaches Elmo and Abby how "it can be easy being green" by recycling, re-using, and conserving water and energy. Abby, in her desire to help Elmo be more "green, accidentally turns him the color green and can't remember how to change him back! Lots of fun ensues as Abby is eventually able to poof Elmo red again. Elmo, Cookie Monster, Rosita and Telly join Mr. Earth in pledging to continue to do "green" things to help our planet.

The situation becomes increasingly difficult when his tempestuous ex-wife unexpectedly makes her way back into his life. Co-starring four-time Golden Globe(R) nominee Scarlett Johansson (Lost in Translation) and Oscar(R) nominee Patricia Clarkson (Pieces of April), VICKY CRISTINA BARCELONA is heralded as a "...gorgeous new entry in the annals of great comedy" (Elle) and "...powered by a dream cast, this is Woody Allen's sexiest movie ever!"

SANTA MONICA, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Genius Products, Inc. (Pink Sheets:GNPI) and The Weinstein Company LLC (“TWC”) announced today that it has commenced a restructuring process beginning with the acquisition by GNPR Investments LLC (“GNPR”), an affiliate of Quadrant Management, Inc. (“Quadrant”), of a 60% ownership interest in Genius Products, LLC (the “Distributor”) from affiliates of TWC. Genius Products, Inc. (the “Company”) retains a 25% ownership interest in the Distributor, while TWC continues to own a 15% stake in the Distributor. In addition, the Distributor announced that it has renegotiated its distribution agreement with TWC.
This transaction is the first of several anticipated steps in a restructuring of Genius Products. With the assistance of Quadrant, and TWC, Genius Products will continue a series of restructuring activities including changes to its cost structure and renegotiating its existing agreements with vendors and content partners. In addition, The Company is considering a range of strategic and financial alternatives including a recapitalization, refinancing and going private. In recognition of Quadrant’s new participation, three of the Company’s directors appointed by TWC resigned and will be replaced with representatives from Quadrant.
TWC remains the primary and most significant content partner and the Distributor continues to be the exclusive U.S. home video distributor to feature film and direct-to-video releases owned or controlled by TWC. The TWC Distribution Agreement will remain in place through December 31, 2010 with the mutual option to extend the agreement to December 31, 2011.
“We’re happy to have Alan Quasha and his team at Quadrant on board and to be part of this company going forward,” said Bob Weinstein, co-chairman TWC. “Quadrant’s impeccable track record and leadership, along with their significant music catalog, film library and their new investment in videogames that they are bringing to Genius equals a win for all parties involved. This joint restructuring is another step of refocusing our company and will give Harvey and me more time to concentrate on our movie slate. We look at this as an ongoing partnership and something that will grow in the future.”

I wonder if Wilmington Capital Secutiries is a possible RM candidate for CTNO?
I just got my CTNO million club membership cards in the mail! Looks very Exclusive to me!
CTNO is like a ticking time bomb - Ready to EXPLODE! ;Od
I agree, CTNO is very undervalued at these levels.
Congrat$! How many CTNO shares do you have on your ranch?
.0028 x .0028
My first position with CTNO was @ .02
Who knows where this may end up, but my target is .30 with a modest RM, maybe much more ($3.00+) with the right circumstances. What is the consensus of a RM with leaddog & friends?
Yes there are a few tables towards the end, still selling. IMO YBTVA share price will go down too, I have been out YBTVA awhile now, GLTYA.
