Hey is this the same Kenneth A. Orr listed in the 10k? If so, does that mean the representations about unknown litigation related to beneficial owners and litigation are incorrect or perhaps intentionally false?

ORR, KENNETH A
How soon before the feds come down of Orr, Pigliatello, Lambro and whichever other fraudsters have been manipulating this stock?
I, honestly don't think it will, or at least for a while. A, lot of people are on to him. I, think he will have hard time getting deals done.
I heard Orr is being sued for defrauding an investor. I believe they, said somewhere in, FL (south fl maybe miami lauderdale area)., anyone know how to validate this? Love to understand what is happening and perhaps provide some helpful information.
This just in...
This stock sucks. It is dying, Orr and hart are lying, sucker investors are crying.... but how are you.
I'm super thanks for asking.
Lil Southpark humor for you given this joke aint funny no, more
Thank you very much. I'll be here all week. Try the meatloaf
Just waiting for a release like:
PR Newswire May 21st, 2014 -
Today ZNBR announced a change in its symbol BsOrr and will be trading on the OTCBS exchange. The Company also revealed its intention to obtain the rights to the bridge to nowhere as well three of Jack's four magic beans.
CEO Ryan Hart remarked, "we have realized there is strong demand to invest in fantasies and fantasies is what we deliver."
Simultaneously Triumph Small Cap Fund's CEO Kenneth Orr filed a 13d and put in several short blocks.

watching is an understatement.... have your seen the resurfacing of Techno techno concepts, "TCPS" as well. Orr involved in that.
maybe they are
maybe they are
That's because this is a KENNETH A. ORR scam.... RYAN HART...
where's that joker who was defending Kenny and that Uncle Phil really invests with him. I bet uncle Phil pretends not to know him
did you write this on your own or did Kenneth pay you to post this garbage.
I saw another version that read closer to this....
Mr. Orr faced charges from the SEC and government related to his illegal activities involving promoting stock. In exchange for snitching on others, Orr plead down to money laundering and avoided jail time. No one is able to find a company in which Orr or Triumph is involved with that has amounted to anything other than a bankrupted and delisted venture
probably because the spent what little cash they had putting money back into the market to maintain some level of trading
okay, I don't know anything.... TCPS was a sham of a company that attempted to make waives about its box top technologies. They falsely claimed to have a bunch of box tops sold to China back in 2007 or 2008. Reality was that no product was actually sold and even more offensive the "product" that is associated with the worthless patent was never finished nor should have been because they realized it would not work.
The former CEO, Tony (now deceased, may he rest in peace) blew through a ton of cash unrelated to furthering the company. A stock promoting company named Alizay, reported to have been paid $900k to promote the stock. $900k to promote a penny stock with no product to sell. Infamous penny players such as Triumph directly and through associates such as Barry Witz (convicted) were actively involved in TCPS during its peak times (peak defined by tons of volume being traded with no revenues).
Enter Maurice Spitz as the new CEO.... really Maurice Spitz? Check out his credentials and let me know when you find them. But if you go on facebook, let me know if any of the above mentioned are his friends. Oh and let's talk about the reduction of debt.... You mean converting legacy debt into free trading shares so some of the same jokers who raped the market years ago could pull a few pennies out now....
So since I know nothing, riddle me this.... what do you attribute the various spikes in trading volume and rapid ups and downs in the price we saw over the past few months. Was it the "valuable patent" or some effective promoting of a shell disguised as a reborn technology company.
read some of the bullish postings. those are not the result of ignorant posters. Those are scripted by insiders to try and generate excitement from inexperienced traders that do not have an appreciation of how a majority of the micro cap stocks are organized to methodically suck money our of people not fully educated on how these scams work.
wow, this stock actually trades. It has not operations, no plan, walks the line by claiming the worthless patents create value. When a company can only issue news about reducing debt, that is a flag that nothing is happening. Gee, I wonder if reducing debt at least partially is result of legacy debt being converted to free trading shares which are timed to release into the market so periodic volume exists so the insiders have windows to dump stock. but hey what do I know
well said. been long time since visited this board, but what continues to amaze me is the promoting; albeit limited of this stock based upon no concrete data. This is contradicted by direct and pointed observations related to the company's lack of any meaningful news, horrific cash position and associations with convicted stock fraudsters such as Kenneth Orr, Andrew Baum and their pawn CEOs like Ryan Hart. Don't believe everything on the internet but put credence into google results that point to SEC actions, successful prosecutions and the like.
This stock is less likely to perform that healthcare.gov

The company has $1,000 and offices out of Ryan Hart's office in NYC (and does not pay rent). Ryan's job was to administer a fraud
Actually, when I first learned of the company, I was very interested i talking about it. However; that became a challenge as it is still unclear to anyone what there is to speak about. Other than some news releases about future events that never unfold, offerings of stock at now over inflated prices and no identifiable business or model, what specifically is there to discuss.... The next logical question one asks themselves (and actually first logical question one asks when looking to invest) is.... who are the key folks involved....
If one goes back to late 2009 they find an Andrew Baum.... stick that into quotes in google and see what you find.... a stock promotor indicted for market manipulation
Then we come across A Mr. Ryan Hart.... what he exactly does is still a bit of a mystery with the exception that he has done nothing related to mining, alternative energy or anything related to what ZNBR does (or does not)....
Doing some additional digging you find that Mr. Hart and Mr. Orr appear to co-invest in a number of deals (reviewing SEC filings). Oddly enough, I have not found a deal that they were invested in that actually did anything but sporadically generate trading volume and erratic spikes / drops in prices.... I did find one common pattern.... one day the spikes stop and we are left with a decline and then slow death.
Please share what you would suggest we discuss related to this outstanding company with roots in solar wind fields (plans) in Turkey that now has desires to mine. Seen some cool acquisitions that never happened. Should we discuss those? How about the $1,000 of money in the account, that would be great dinner chatter. Maybe if the company puts that 1,000 into another of the deals they are working on at the onset, ZNBR can transform into a portfolio management company. TRKP, ZNBR, then DEAD
In an administrative proceeding, the SEC made the following findings of fact about a friend and colleague of Mr. L, Kenneth A. Orr [http://www.sec.gov/litigation/admin/34-50941.htm]:
A. Orr, age 38, was a registered representative associated with a registered broker-dealer, J.J. Morgan & Co., a brokerage firm later known as First Cambridge Securities Corp. (“First Cambridge”), and was a registered principal and president of First Cambridge from March 1994 until May 23, 1997. First Cambridge was registered with the Commission as a broker-dealer pursuant to Section 15(b) of the Exchange Act during the period of Orr’s employment.
B. On November 10, 1999, the Commission filed a civil action in federal district court against Orr and sixteen other defendants, charging Orr with violations of Section 17(a) of the Securities Act of 1933 (“Securities Act”) and Section 10(b) of the Exchange Act and Rule 10b-5 thereunder, in connection with the kickback scheme outlined in subparagraph III.C hereof. SEC v. Curtis, et al., 99 Civ. 7357 (E.D.N.Y.) (“Curtis”).
C. The Commission’s complaint alleged that, while employed at First Cambridge, Orr received undisclosed compensation for selling stock of ICIS Management Group, Inc. (f/k/a/ Alter Sales Co., Inc.), a Florida corporation, and Pilot Transport Inc., a Nevada corporation.
D. On September 13, 2002, the United States District Court for the Eastern District of New York entered a Final Judgment of Permanent Injunction and Other Relief as to Kenneth A. Orr in Curtis, permanently enjoining Orr from future violations of Section 17(a) of the Securities Act, and Section 10(b) of the Exchange Act and Rule 10b-5 thereunder, ordering Orr to disgorge $55,000 in ill-gotten gains, approximately $44,000 in prejudgment interest, and post-judgment interest, and ordering Orr to pay a civil penalty of $55,000. Orr consented to the entry of the final judgment without admitting or denying the allegations in the Commission’s Complaint.
E. Additionally, on January 3, 2002, Orr pleaded guilty to one count of conspiracy to launder money. United States v. Orr, 99 CR 1019 (E.D.N.Y). On May 21, 2002, a judgment in the criminal case was entered against Orr. He was sentenced to three years of probation and ordered to pay a $3,000 fine.
Interestingly and maybe coincidentally, Orr has enmeshed himself with an affinity group similar to those targeted in the scam against the holocaust survivors. From Orr’s own blog [http://orrkenneth.wordpress.com/about/]
Other causes that have benefited from the Orr Foundation’s contributions include Kick-It, Ascent: A School for Individuals with Autism, Mosdot Shuva Israel, American Friends of Meir Panim, Friends of the Israel Defense Forces, and The Brendan & Liam Shanahan Foundation. Kenneth Orr sits on the Board of Directors of Aish HaTorah and the North Shore-LIJ Health System New Leadership Division. He is a Trustee for the Old Westbury Hebrew Congregation…..
Very solid guy: See below... then tell me about the foundation
http://janbtucker.com/blog/2013/04/28/small-freaky-world-of-white-collar-crime/
So here’s the intriguing thing. After I posted my September 2, 2011 blog that listed Orr, I get some very interesting documents sent to me by a whistleblower concerning a company called Ecologix Resource Group, Inc.. In speaking with the whistleblower, he indicates that the name of Mr. L’s primary public business entity sounded familiar. Before I get to the interesting linkages, here’s a tidbit about the company from Wiki Answers: “The Company was formerly known as Battery Control Corp. and changed its name to Ecologix Resource Group, Inc. on July 14, 2009. Ecologix Resource Group was founded in 2007 and is based in Beverly Hills, California” [http://wiki.answers.com/Q/Who_is_Ecologix_Resource_Group].
An internal shareholders report I obtained dated September 16, 2009 likewise lists the company’s address as SUITE 918 9903 SANTA MONICA BLVD BEVERLY HILLS CA 90212 but yet, the California Secretary of State’s online corporate indexing system seems to have no record of the entity under either Battery Control Corp. or any variation of Ecologix (there were three former “Ecologix” entities, two suspended and one dissolved, but all were formed in 2002 or before). The company’s last SEC filing indicated that it was a Delaware corporation (IRS No.: 980556644 | State of Incorp.: DE | Fiscal Year End: 1231) but given that it continues to list it’s headquarters in Beverly Hills (269 SOUTH BEVERLY DRIVE STE. 1197 BEVERLY HILLS CA 90212) California law requires the company to have registered as a foreign corporation with the California Secretary of State.
Orr and Hart (hart who operates under Myrus Investment fund as well) are cronies that flock together and a number of bogus companies that churn volume and eventually disappear. Research deeper and you will find that they suck money out of the market through consulting contracts, convertible debt instruments and a combination of timed selling when market makers are promoting in conjunction with short selling once the stock has reach it's peak. There are some interesting litigations involved with the company; one involves Orr suing a nathan oral as the CEO of JD Lauern (cannot find anything about what JD Lauren is). What is very interesting is that Orr is claiming the rights to shares that were collateral related to purchase agreement. Nathan refused to turn in his share collateral however; Ryan Hart and others associated with Orr did forfeit their shares (thus not subject to litigation. Case made no sense and was extremely odd in nature. Looked as if Orr in collaboration with Hart and others architected a way to screw this Nathan guy out of his stock....
Unwind to Q4 2009 and you will see that an Andy Baum resigned as CEO of Global Ink. Baum and Orr are long time friends and business associates. Baum often helped support the market for deals in which or and his hedge fund triumph invested in... Baum is indicted for stock fraud and manipulation... the Lawyer for JD Lauren (Orr) is in prison for issuing false opinion letters.
Hey anyone think investors are jumping at the $1.50 share price for equity financing :)
Yes wonderful. .. the company was able to figure out how to convert insider debt into free trading stock... brilliant. Prob not related to recent volume spikes
Did anyone read the recent 10k filing and catch the $666k paid to Ryan Hart for reimbursement of expenses and repayment of monies Hart paid to third party vendors? Then reflect on the fact that the company has 3, yes 3 employees and no office of their own... they operate for free out of Ryan Hart's office.... Let's pretend that Ryan Hart has a background that remotely qualifies him to be the CEO of a mining company (read the bio, he don't), with no revenues, no prospects of any business how does one incur 298k of travel and expenses plus layout another $350k or so of money "third parties".... Has anyone done the homework related to who is behind this gig? Majority shareholders and backgrounds.... Wait, Andrew Baum was former CEO.... yeah, Andrew, I was just indicted for stock manipulation a few months ago, Baum..... Oh, so maybe the money paid to third parties was actually to market makers & promoters... hmmm oh, perhaps a few of the consulting fees listed were paid at an arms length like this....
Come on, really? These jokers reversed the stock to give the appearance of something real.... and now the thing is nose diving eventually to return to the previous penny price with much less shares outstanding.... somebody tell me what I am misreading here.
Love to know detsils of consulting agreements
Yes, I did too. They are looking to acquire the bridge to nowhere. .. I also understand they are speaking with Jack to secure 51% of his beanstalk and all future plantings
I heard a similar story. Former CEO was blowing cash on everything but development. Couple bad guys one from Triumph small cap fund and his LA partner a barry witz (?) Were involved in pulling cash from company... some for pockets and some to pump the market. All this recent trading over nothing.... company announces reduced debt.... really a one sentence release.... wonder how many shares they got to convert and eventually wait for another short lived rallying to recoup whatever debt they had or probably bought from a past shareholder for pennies on the dollar.
Does anyone find it shocking that a former officer of Turk, prior to Hart, wss indicted for Securities fraud earlier this year. Looking at some of the other control parties there are other former indicted. Characters.
This entire company is an empty nest revived for one purpose only... generate some quick cash for a few of the controlling shareholders that wanted to squeeze out a final round of capital b4 they put it back to sleep. Spitz, aside from appearring in a few other pubcos as an officer, what credentials does he have. The pig... given company has no cash what else was he compensated with but stock.. who is the pig anyway. See frequent references to him on this board.
Wow what news.... an Obama press release... the address of the Company is an attorneys office, they have no software developers, the prior CEO Tony passed away & the technology behind the patten when the company actually was real and paid develops could never make it work... That's why back in 2007 - 2008 all that garbage about 200m orders in China were nothing more than hype...
But okay, under the expertise of "Mo Spitz" this flawed technology and worthless patents are going to now revolutionize the industry all because Obama has changed regs....
Here's an idea, take out a $100 bill, light it on fire and watch it burn. For the time it is lit you will technology have more revenue in your hand than the Company will from sales.
Or lack there of.... there will not be PR cause there is nothing in this deal but MMs & inside traders....
Personal Ad would read:
"lonely shell seeking foolish and naive start-up company unable to raise capital desperate to believe the dream."
read the filings from current, research the old TCPS, check out the cronies involved...
eventually even the folks that got shares early and cheap to keep the market afloat, run out...
what did you find in DD to justify the risk. This is an empty shell being traded on no real news or prospect of business.
I would consider it well architected market manipulation having issued just about all the float to remaining "players" with a strike place in the thousandths of a penny.... each making a ton when they sell & having to take a bit of a cut for a buy every now and then.... And then BOOM no more buys just sells as those less fortunate look to get in on the action..... and as the drop happens, they get to make it again on the shorts....
The company has worthless pattens, no real business or one in sight.
Completely agree. In fact, I am unclear as to what exactly the Company actually has done.
i mean insiders holding significant shares and effectively dictating events. This company is doing nothing but trading shares.
In case anyone wanted to know about one of the "control" people....

The shareholders report lists stockholders all over the world, with quite a few in Israel.
Although Kenneth Orr wasn’t listed as a shareholder, a Barbara Orr of West Palm Beach FL and Brooklyn NY owned 855,000 shares (Kenny’s mother according to one of my informants) while a Jacqueline Orr of New Hope PA owned 30,000 at the time the report was generated. Penson Financial Services, Inc. of Dallas—an entity that Mr. L had accounts with—owned 300,000 shares of Ecologix and Kenny Orr controlled Triumph Small Cap Fund, Inc. of NY owned 3,102,999 shares. Penson incidentally, also figured in a complicated series of financial transactions that attracted the likes of criminals from Bernie Madoff to Semion Mogilevich (head of the Red Mafiya, implicated in the assassination of Gyula Tamas Zubovicz amongst others) [http://www.calibratedconfidence.com/2011/12/chapter-7-bernie-madoff-cover-up-blind.html?m=1]. Also invoking my analogy of the Venn Diagrams and a series of overlapping circles, an internal spreadsheet shows numerous ties including wire transfers between an attorney, Mr. DLK, who is also associated with Mr. L. The spreadsheet must have been generated by an auditor because it contains a number of questions (in red, apparently literally raising “red flags”) on certain line items, such as:
What is Majorie Group and what is the nature of the expense?
Is this a loan with Azure? Need a copy of the loan agreement
Is this a loan? If so, from who?
What was this a payment for?
Who is JD Lauren? What is the nature of this expense?
This is a loan payment but I do not see a loan from him.
Was this paid to him for consulting services? Did he obtain any assets for the company with this money?
probably because the guy paying for the touting is dumping the stock
