Quote:- A home run for investors who act swiftly!
U.S.A... Now on Track to Become
the World's #1 Oil Producer!
Surprised? Don't be. Insiders know
it and they're moving fast.
Don't be caught on the sidelines here.
You could miss the best opportunity in a lifetime
to build investment wealth in energy.
Highly successful test well produces in excess of 20,000 barrels of oil in a matter of months!
These results validate the Company’s strategy of entering into its new 92,000 acreage deal in Oklahoma!
Oklahoma oil and gas discoveries a leading contributor to skyrocketing U.S. production!
Oil prices climb back over $100 per barrel and close to nine month high!
My top oil and gas pick for 2012
could be trading over $3.00 this year...
and you can buy it right now
for under a buck!
To the Opportunity Seeking Investor:
A new Oklahoma oil and gas discovery is poised to be the energy story of the year.
The enormous oil and gas deposit has been locked up for years in a tight shale formation. Now, that shale is being cracked and the oil is starting to flow.
Majors have already moved into the area, Devon, Chesapeake, Continental, Sandridge... these companies have already made fortunes for ground floor investors.
From where I sit, that means one thing: There's some serious cash being made in Oklahoma and it's still early enough to catch the next big player before its stock goes ballistic. I'm predicting it will be Imperial Resources (OTCBB: IPRC).
Imperial just shocked the majors by completing a mega-deal with a partner that now gives IPRC operating control, along with agreements to participate in a huge 92,000 acre swath of resource-rich Oklahoma retaining a 90% ownership.
A test well targeting the same formation has flowed at rates of over 350 barrels of oil per day and has produced in excess of over 20,000 barrels of oil to date.
This sudden success means it could soon be possible to drive across Oklahoma and see Imperial's corporate emblem on more than 300 producing wells.
Now, suddenly, IPRC stands on equal footing with some of the world's biggest energy companies.
Additionally, IPRC is positioned to have a steady income stream from its water disposal facility located in the heart of the Barnett Shale which could generate, as much as $6.5 million a year, to fund its huge Oklahoma project.
This why I am convinced that IPRC's potential for swift growth will drive its shares past $3.00 this year.
That would be the first stop on a track that could put IPRC into $7.00 territory.
A report you should be reading right now...
The link below takes you to my latest online report, which explains in detail why Imperial Resources has triple-digit gains written all over it. IPRC fits perfectly with the model for explosive growth recently seen in small to mid-sized American energy companies.
These companies have made millions for investors, gains of 300% to 400% have been common. Many soared past 20-fold gains in a matter of just a few months! (Details provided in my online report.)
Now it's time to grab your share:
Here's what will put IPRC on Wall Street radar and why this could put IPRC on a fast track to $3.00...
Followed by a run to $7.00!
Test well indicates IPRC could drill over 300 wells resulting in production of 10's of thousands of barrels a day Imperial's secret location has not been published by the company and continues to be top secret. Read my report to find out why!
View the report here...
A new wastewater injection site soon ready to open in the heart of the Barnett Shale, Texas. This revenue generating facility will be a much-needed disposal well in the heart of the Barnett Shale. At full capacity it could generate over a half-million dollars per month in revenue for Imperial!
View the report here...
Oklahoma has the second fastest growing oil and gas production in America. Fortunes are being made and there's still time to get in early.
Ground floor buys are becoming increasingly difficult to find, so I'm delighted to have found IPRC just as the company is gaining traction on its long-range business plan in Oklahoma oil and gas.
Follow the link below and you'll have immediate access to my newly updated report on Imperial Resources. I believe investing in IPRC today could become your most profitable investment in 2012 and this report explains why. I encourage you to take time to read it right now!
My name is Eric Dany. I'm the editor of Eric Dany's Stock Prospector. My specialty is digging up the facts on little-known companies whose stocks are about to explode with profits!
In addition to my regular monthly newsletter, every year since 2004 I put out my annual Winning Stocks Report.
During this time my Winning Stock Picks have almost tripled the market's returns, averaging a healthy 17.2% return versus the market's 6.0% average return. That's pretty good stock picking if I say so myself.
Some of my other winners include:
Suncor Energy up 203%, profits 360%, 500%
Yanzhou Coal up 225%
Sunovia Energy profits 100%, 300%, 488%
Darling International up 256%
Stans Energy profits 223% and 395%
My research also showed that Illumina Inc. was undervalued and poised to move up. It gained over 100% after I made it a Stock Prospector Pick. These stocks moved hard and fast.
Now I'm telling you that because it has successful test well in oil-rich Oklahoma Imperial Resources (IPRC) is the absolute best way to take advantage of rising oil prices and these uncertain times.
Right now, every investor wants to know which way the market is headed. My answer is that you can't worry about the overall direction. This market is strictly for stock pickers.
Today, you want to be in the kind of special-situation stocks that are not dependent upon an up market for their shares to gain.
That's why I'm urging you to act now.
Read this exciting new Special Report. You don't want to miss this one. Don't wait until IPRC has multiple wells flowing.
I know stocks. I urge you, do your due diligence, then call your broker about IPRC
Yours for Profitable Investing,
Eric Dany

Imperial Resources, Inc.; Oklahoma Production Update

Imperial Res (OTCBB:IPRC)
Historical Stock Chart
2 Months : February 2012 to April 2012
Imperial Resources, Inc. (OTCBB: IPRC) and its wholly owned subsidiary, Imperial Oil & Gas, Inc. (together the "Company", "Imperial") is pleased to announce that a well in which Imperial owns a nominal interest ("Test Well") in the same blanket formation as in the Company's Area of Mutual Interest ("AMI") in its key Oklahoma resource play, is currently producing at flow rates of around 167 Barrels of Oil ("BO") per day and in excess of 650 MCF of gas per day.
The Test Well was put onto production in November 2011 and has achieved flow rates in excess of 360 BO and 850 MCF of gas per day. Cumulative gross production to date is in excess of 20,431 BO and 52,483 MCF of gas.
In line with the Company's conservative strategy, Imperial took a nominal position in the Test Well to obtain partner level access to the results of an optimized fracture protocol, at minimal risk. The Test well has validated the recovery technique applicable to potential wells in a new AMI of 144 square miles (92,000 acres), entered into with its Test Well partner on January 10, 2012. This is seen as a potential "Company Maker" for Imperial.
Subject to funding, the Company intends to commence a leasing program in the new AMI as soon as possible. Imperial believes that the value of acreage positions in the resource play will continue to climb, as demonstrated by Imperial's purchase of similar acreage in 2011 which generated an uplift in value of over 350% in less than 9 months. The new AMI also increases Imperial's potential working interest ownership from 50% to 90%.
The Oklahoma resource play is one of two key projects identified as transformational for Imperial (the other being the Company's SWDF project).

Keep up the good work Estefano. Whats with the new look and new name?? GLTA
Buying the product is great to give the company a boost but buying the shares is so much better. I may get some of the product myself for my driveway! The fact that every auto repair shop and auto dealership in the Nation has a use for this product sounds real good to me. Let alone the oil companies for major spills.
Haiti will come in due course when they get their new Prime Minister appointed. The IDB is committed for ten years to fund reconstruction. MSMY is what you might say.... lining up their ducks right now. Get ready for the explosion folks....GLTA
On account of the market being closed Friday I expect they will hold off on the PR till next week...GLTA
There sure is a lot of damage in the DFW area. Perhaps Tim will be able to spawn some business locally. Looking forward to some news this week on the Haiti trip and more on the new website. GLTA
Welcome Hedge Party,Stockbull and PhilCheeze. You will get all the info you need in the intro message for MSMY.... I imagine there may be a PR this week on the new website and updates on the Haiti trip by CEO. GLTA
Haiti - Reconstruction : $200 million of subsidies for Haiti in 2012
Subsidies from the Interamerican Development Bank (IDB) to the tune of $200 million will go to Haiti this year for its recovery efforts.
The United States, who are members of the IDB, have proposed to the latter to commit to provide annual subsidies to Haiti for a period of 10 years.
The funds granted in 2012 will contribute to rebuild schools, develop private enterprises and projects in the sectors of energy and agriculture, creating public transit and ensure water supply and sanitation services.
In 2011, the funding provided by the Interamerican Development Bank has allowed to open 800 temporary classrooms, to build and repair 160 km of roads and to vaccinate 50% of farmers in Haiti against swine flu and other diseases.
Good for you scottieone! I will be doing the same. I can still average down at this time and on some good news there is only one way from here.... UP!!!! GLTA
quote:-.....We are experiencing technical difficulties with Level 2. Sorry for the inconvenience, it will be fixed shortly.
Your correct....They do have some new business partners. They also have an new web site for their Oil Zorb products (still under construction) which should generate additional revenues and should be 'on-line' soon according to their previous PR's. GLTA
Thanks for the 'Heads Up' Estefano
No offense taken or implied! I can assure you that Riskon and Estefano are certainly NOT paid pumpers. They are investors,like myself, trying to post meaningful information for the good of the company and its success. It is the readers responsibility to make their own decisions to invest in this company based on what they read here and research themselves elsewhere. I personally base my posts and invest on the results of correspondance to Tim, talking to Gary on the phone and my own research and conclusions. GLTA.
Great posts Riskon and Estefano!! I like your enthusiasm also. I believe you guys have the same enthusiasm as Tim,our CEO.
A blind man should be able to see the potential of this company irrespective of what comes out of Haiti. I would like to see them go after some North Dakota oil business as well as the coals they have in the fire in Texas,Nigeria,Asia,Kuwait and Haiti. Keep up the good work guys. Time is on our side. GLTA
As I understand it, there are more companies placed on the DTC chill list than before and they can be placed there for a multitude of reasons. The purpose of the list is to protect investers from crookery that can and does take place in Pink Sheet/Penny Land. MSMY is not one of these companies. I believe the reason we were placed on the list is due to the large sale of shares that took place back in in Mid October. I have been informed that the Transfer Agent would be the person to handle the 'removal from the list' after investigations and proof that there was no illegal actions performed at that time...... There was no dilution or illegal events took place back then by the company.
Tim Algier is working very hard at making MC Endeavors a successful company. I am sure we will be getting a PR soon updating us on the visit to Haiti, amongst other things he may have in the pipeline, (Asia, Nigeria, Kuwait,Texas etc.)
In the mean time good luck to all!!!
where are all the buyers this morning?
Please understand that MC Endeavors, Inc. is committed to moving forward and building shareholder equity as responsibly and quickly as possible. We will continue to focus on the building of this company and we intend to make every effort to update you concerning our achievements and progress.

We also provide water and soil biodegradable-remediation from oil, chemical and sewage spills after natural or manmade environmental events with our patent pending DualZorb®, PondZorb® & AcidZorb® products.
).0038 on the ask. Who is going to slap it?
I agree with you plugger, it would be nice to get something with MSMY mentioned or connected. However for people to expect contracts on a first visit to Haiti is expecting a little too much IMHO. Any 'green' news containing Clinton, Mc Endeavors, Eddie Daniels,Moneys allocated to Construction etc are all worthy of posting. Much more so than some of the negative stuff posted here. I will continue to post anything I feel is relavent to the cause and thank Riskon and Illuminat81 for their continued positive input. GLTA
Good Morning MSMYers! I imagine we will be getting some kind of report on Tim's visit to Haiti this coming week.
Austin, Texas is hosting a huge business forum today and this coming week-end. I expect he will be attending that. I am like you guys, I just do not understand what motivates people to sell small numbers of shares at these low prices. Time will tell and patience shall prevail!!! GLTA
This could be quite relevent since we have a Bill Clinton/Eddy Daniel/MC Endeavors connection.
Good morning all MSMYers. Lets look forward to a good week with some positve news out of Haiti and some of their other endeavors. Go MSMY. Good luck to Tim and Staff and all long term investors. Regardless of what all the naysayers comments....OUR DAY WILL COME!!!
Good Morning RetiredMM, If this is the $200M in construction projects you were refering to, it would seem that it was not slated to begin until mid-2012 so there would be no revenues to show at this time
MC Endeavors forms Subsidiary "All Things Green, LLC" to Support $200M in Projects over the Next 5 Years
MC Endeavors Director Met with Haiti President Martelly Regarding Reconstruction Efforts and Funding Schedules
Monarch Beach, CA, April 19, 2011 - MC Endeavors, Inc. (PinkSheets: MSMY) announced that the corporation has formed a new subsidiary named "All Things Green, LLC" to support the upcoming $200M in construction projects over the next 5 years that will begin in mid- 2012 and early 2013 after all master planning and design phases have been completed and approved. MC Endeavors CEO Tim Algier emphasized that, "The new subsidiary will include our "Smart- Brands" of Generators, Solar- Collectors, Wind- Gen Systems, Power- Chill Systems, Safety- Aids, and Plasma Digestion Systems. These products will be integrated to work together in each commercial or residential building project and will be designed and produced from one profit center in order to simplify operations."
MC Endeavors Director U.S. Ambassador Lewis Lucke met with newly elected President Michel Martelly of Haiti along with his newly appointed Advisory Council last Friday. Ambassador Lucke stated, "I was very impressed with the President's Team and their focus and the plans that they are implementing for the reconstruction of the earthquake torn country." They are now accepting Request for Proposals from construction companies for Phase 1 to start the demolition of all condemned buildings. Master Planning and reconstruction of permanent housing will be the next phase of RFPs. MC Endeavors will be responding to all RFPs issued for the reconstruction phases.

Good morning Riskon, where are all the buyers this morning. Can't help thinking they are wasting a great chance to load up pending the upcoming news of Tim's visit to Haiti!!! GLTA
Extract from Martelly's reply to Conille's resignation
"Early Friday, in a meeting with visiting U.S. lawmakers, Martelly reassured them that the political hiccup would not hinder Haiti’s recovery. He promised to hold senatorial elections and to revive the Interim Haiti Recovery Commission to oversee billions in donor aid. Former President Bill Clinton co-chairs the commission." This is good news amid the uncertainty of who will replace Conille....GLTA
QUOTE:-
The new government led by President Michel Martelly says building new homes and restoring neighourhoods is a priority, a task the IOM estimates will take from two to five years.
But while progress has been made in clearing half the quake rubble from the capital’s streets, few new permanent homes are being built in Port-au-Prince to resettle the some 500,000 Haitians still living in makeshift camps sprawled across the city.
The Red Cross has built a cluster of pastel-coloured houses powered by solar panels and a controversial housing programme on land given by the Haitian government has provided around 7,000 people shelter in wooden temporary houses in Corail-Cesselesse, a desolate area on the capital’s outskirts. But these are the notable exceptions.
“Two years after the earthquake there is still no policy in terms of housing. The vast majority of construction has been temporary shelters with a life span between two, maximum five years. There’s no plan, no strategy to make temporary shelters more permanent structures and provide people with access to basic services like water,” Gerardo Ducos, Haiti researcher at Amnesty International told AlertNet in a telephone interview.
“I don’t believe offering $500 to a family could be considered an adequate alternative solution to the housing crisis. What happens to the people when their rent money runs out in a year?,” Ducos added.
While Haitians wait for the government to build homes, foreign investors are forging ahead. Construction work by several new big name hotel chains is underway.
Moving camp residents who face deteriorating conditions to safer housing is becoming ever more urgent.
There is the threat of the world’s deadliest cholera epidemic regaining its force with rains expected in June, and drinking water and clean toilets are fast disappearing as more cash strapped non-governmental organisations leave the camps.
Meanwhile, camp residents wait as the daily struggle to fend off disease and hunger continues.
“I hope we’ll leave soon,” said Elsie Baptiste, hunched over a coal stove in Champ de Mars. “Everyone wants to leave this place.”
We are beginning to move back up on the breakout board. Today's followers jumped from 202 to 215 also. Good things about to happen!!! GLTA
Looking a whole lot better now. GLTA... 1.5 MILLION in first half hour
