301 NOW!
Was this ever at 30 cents and does anyone have a long term chart to compare prices. Would be nice to see the company was at a much higher valuation before the BK. With the BK dismissed this is a totally new and different scenario for share holders IMO!!
C.B.G...... That means its time to get excited!! I decided to get into SIRGQ after reading your posts at work(on the sly) and decided to take the plunge. I hope you and all other holders of this stock the best of luck and prosperity!
If the BK was dismissed wouldn't the debt , if any still stand?
Ok , I jumped in today with a few million shares. I did bend a rule and did the trades at work. Once in I did wonder if I made the right decision but having researched the great news on the BK dismissal now in the I-box it gives me a lot of confidence in this company and that we are in for a treat of kinds. GLTA in SIRGQ !!!

Seems like you all blew your trumpets in vain all week end long!!
Is it not time for a R/S here? I think one is coming soon!
ok bud! You got a new follower today, lets hope this silent goose is the one that ends up laying the GOLDEN EGG!!!!! CHEERS!!!!!!!!! Because CHEERS is a good word! hehe
I guess no one has spoken to them recently , was there any contact with management prior to this silence? Who is their TA and is the TA gagged?
Btw thank you for your answer. When I found VGTL and read a few posts of folks like you and saw that the company had gone silent, those two scenarios you mentioned earlier ran through my head. However i do hope its the former and everyone benefits!
I had received an email from a CEO of a company I was invested in and he had mentioned CHEERS at the end of his email. Lo and behold a few days later there was a merger and that company with a new symbol CSHD had later run to $4 from a low of 2 cents. Not saying that will happen here, just saying CHEERS is a good word! CSHD btw ended up at zero but what a ride it was with Mr Rufus!
shhh....Cheers is a good word....shhh!!
Why did the company go silent? Has anyone spoken to them since? Did anyone speak to them prior to them going silent? This silence is deafening! Does any one else feel this way? Does anyone have an answer for this silence? Has anyone been with any other company that had gone silent and then regained some pulse? What a silent bunch of folks here, seems none understand this silence! HELLO! IS ANYONE ALIVE OUT THERE??
Hats off to folks who were right on this one! CEO of MDCN and all that work with him are MO....FUCKERS!! that includes that idiot on the phone named John!!
Is that you smoking the hell out of VGTL??
They could be at the beach beers and shots in hand. After all where did the investor money go???? ONCE A CROOK ALWAYS A CROOK!!
GO MDCN $$$$$$$!!!
California: Assembly Passes AB 266; ASA Calls It 'Step Forward For Medical Cannabis Patients' Submitted by steveelliott on Thu, 06/04/2015 - 22:34 2015 AB 266 Americans for Safe Access assembly health committee California california assembly ken cooley medical marijuana Medicinal Cannabis Political reginal byron jones-sawyer rob bonta steph sherer Americans for Safe Access (ASA) on Thursday announced support for AB 266, which would create a "regulatory structure" for California’s landmark medical cannabis program. Earlier on Thursday AB 266 passed the California Assembly by a margin of 60-8-12. Last week AB 266 was merged with AB 34 and Assemblymember Rob Bonta (D-Oakland) was made lead author of the bill. AB 266 is co-authored by Assemblymembers Ken Cooley (D-Rancho Cordova) and Reginald Byron Jones-Sawyer (D-Los Angeles). In addition to supporting AB 266 in its present form, ASA announced it will be working with the General Assembly, California State Senate, patients, and providers to find ways to further improve the bill to optimize the ultimate program that would be created. “AB 266 works to fix a system that has been broken for almost two decades,” said Assemblymember Bonta, buying into the popular narrative that free market distribution of medicinal cannabis is somehow unacceptable. "California was the first state in the nation to approve medical cannabis with the passage of Prop 215 in 1996, but since then we as a state have stagnated, and it is time that the Legislature takes definitive action on this important issue. "As Chair of the Assembly Health Committee I feel it is imperative that we create a viable framework for medical cannabis that preserves our core priorities and provides strong patient protections and access to their medicine,” Bonta said. "Although California has the oldest medical marijuana program in the nation it currently lacks a comprehensive regulatory scheme, leaving it behind a number states with more recent programs that have adopted industry best practices as part of their statewide laws and regulations," according to a press release from ASA. Americans for Safe for Access said its research has shown that regulation of dispensaries can reduce crime and community complaints, while preserving essential access for medical cannabis patients. "Additionally, members of medical cannabis community will be benefit from a greater perception of integrity among lawmakers and the public under a more robust state-level regulatory structure," ASA claimed. “AB 266 will help put aside industry issues that distract from the benefits that patients in California get from the medical cannabis program,” said Steph Sherer, executive director of ASA. “While enthusiastically supporting AB 266, Americans for Safe Access is supporting amendments in the licensing structure to preserve the historic diversity of the California's medical cannabis industry and allow new players to join the increasingly mature and diverse cannabis industry.” One can only hope for preservation of the medical marijuana industry's "historic diversity," since that's exactly what's gone down the tubes after recreational cannabis legalization in Washington state, and appears to be endangered in Oregon after recreational legalization there, as well. - See more at: http://hemp.org/news/node/5477#sthash.0uk4VolR.dpuf

Bill Levin - First Church of Cannabis

Bill Levin says he founded The First Church of Cannabis in response to Indiana’s Religious Freedom …
.
They have weed instead of wine and a “pooh-bah” in place of a pastor who preaches the power of pot to heal the world: Welcome to The First Church of Cannabis.
In May, this Indiana house of worship won the right to light up freely and spread its groovy gospel thanks to a newly awarded nonprofit designation from the Internal Revenue Service.
Because the church has been deemed a charity, donors can deduct gifts made to the church on federal tax returns, and when the cannabis congregation finds a location, it will be eligible for a property tax exemption — even though neither medical nor recreational marijuana is legal in the state of Indiana.
The church celebrated its new status in a note posted to its Facebook page:
“What a GLORIOUS DAY it is folks... Absolutely BEAUTIFUL...HAPPY TUESDAY! Our NOT FOR PROFIT 501 C3 status came in today... WE ARE 100 % a LEGAL CHURCH... All say HALLELUJAH and SMILE REAL BIG!... We are OFFICIAL!”
The newly founded church, based in Indianapolis, launched a GoFundMe page to raise money to lease a building for its worship services, and has so far collected more than $11,000.
“We don’t want to poison people. We want to see them healthy. And cannabis is the healthiest plant on Earth,” church founder Bill Levin said in an interview with Yahoo News.
So who are these pot worshippers? What do they stand for or believe in? And will police respect their appeal to religion to defend their marijuana use?
In the beginning…
Levin, a 59-year-old carpenter, started the church on March 26, 2015, to push the limits of Indiana’s new Religious Freedom Restoration Act (RFRA), which prohibits the government from “substantially burdening” anyone’s right to exercise his or her religion. Earlier this year, the controversial bill sparked protests from gay rights groups claiming it would allow for businesses to discriminate against gays and lesbians citing religious beliefs.
Levin also protested the bill, but said that in signing it, Indiana Gov. Mike Pence provided the “fertilizer” that allowed his new religion to bloom.
“After Pence made the announcement that he would sign it in a private ceremony, I became born again,” Levin said.
Doctrine
More than 700 people have already paid for membership to the church: $50.40 for one year, $100.80 for two years. (The group also sells “Holy Rollers” rolling paper — the proceeds of which go to the church.)
Members of the congregation, called “Cannabiterians,” say they smoke marijuana to connect more closely with themselves and others.
They believe in the “Deity Dozen,” a list of 12 tenets for living a good life, which is the cannabis congregation’s equivalent of the Ten Commandments:

First Church of Cannabis - logo
The First Church of Cannabis’ kickoff service is scheduled for July 1, 2015.
1) Don’t be an a--hole. Treat everyone with love, as an equal.
2) The day starts with your smile every morning. When you get up, wear it first.
3) Help others when you can. Not for money, but because it’s needed.
4) Treat your body as a temple. Do not poison it with poor quality foods and sodas.
5) Do not take advantage of people. Do not intentionally hurt anything.
6) Never start a fight, only finish them.
7) Grow food, raise animals, get nature into your daily routine.
8) Do not be a “troll” on the Internet; respect others without name-calling and being vulgarly aggressive.
9) Spend at least 10 minutes a day just contemplating life in a quiet space.
10) When you see a bully, stop them by any means possible. Protect those who cannot protect themselves.
11) Laugh often, share humor. Have fun in life, be positive.
12) Cannabis, “the Healing Plant,” is our sacrament. It brings us closer to ourselves and others. It is our fountain of health, our love, curing us from illness and depression. We embrace it with our whole heart and spirit, individually and as a group.
Services
The Church of Cannabis’ first service is scheduled for July 1 (the day the state’s religious freedom law goes into effect) at 12:01 p.m. The location has not yet been announced.
Levin, who has crafted titles for himself like Grand Pooh-bah and Minister of Love, described the upcoming service as a beautiful and moving “celebration of life’s great adventure.”
“We’re going to do all the good things that churches do. Celebrate life, love, compassion and good health,” Levin said. “Everyone is going to leave in a happy, spiritual, healthy way.”
The opening ceremony will kick off with a young harmonica prodigy playing “Amazing Grace.” Then the church’s music minister will lead the house band through three more songs with a bit of chatter in between each.
Next, Levin will speak for five minutes about each of the seven themes that the church holds dear: live, love, laugh, learn, create, grow and teach.
“I will bring people up to testify on the podium of life about what they’ve learned about those subjects this week,” he said. “It’s a completely interactive service.”
The congregation will rise in unison and recite the Deity Dozen before smoking cannabis together.
“After the 12th pathway, we will light up and celebrate life and the birth of a great new religion with a party,” he said.
Theological foundation
The Church of Cannabis defines God as love and declines to characterize its deity as anything else.
Adherents do not subscribe to any canon of spiritual texts either, but they do share basic principles with the major world religions: namely, to treat others with kindness and compassion.
“Old magic books have nothing to do with our religion. We are new and refreshing without all the guilt, sin and judgment,” Levin told Yahoo News.
But Levin’s ganja-worshipping group is not the first to incorporate marijuana into practices intended to pave a path to enlightenment.
Incorporating marijuana into spiritual practices dates back to at least the second millennium B.C. The most well-known use of cannabis to get closer to God can be found in Rastafarianism.
“We are not affiliated with any other faith, but I learned a great deal from the Rastafari religion,” Levin said. “We borrowed a little bit from every religion. We love and respect our Rastafari brothers and sisters without a doubt.”
Other groups similar to The First Church of Cannabis already exist across the country, and include The United Cannabis Ministry of California and Hawaii and The Healing Church of Rhode Island; the latter recently issued guidelines for dealing with police officers after repeated encounters.
Legal grounds
Levin says he does not fear any legal ramifications thanks to the Hoosier State’s RFRA.
“Our church will not buy, sell or trade in the product,” he explained. “But we will encourage our members to enjoy the plant in our church, which is a sanctuary, a safe zone.”
RFRA prohibits the government from “substantially burdening” anyone’s right to exercise his or her religion unless it advances a “compelling governmental interest.”
Daniel O. Conkle, professor of law at Indiana University, says it is highly doubtful that The First Church of Cannabis will not face consequences.
Under RFRA, if charged with possession of an illegal substance, the church would have to demonstrate to a court of law that its marijuana use stems from a genuine religious belief rather than a contrived excuse to get high.
“I would say their ability to make that showing is probably pretty doubtful in this case,” Conkle told Yahoo News.
Other religious groups that use banned substances for spiritual purposes typically have longer track records.
For instance, the Native American Church uses peyote, a cactus-derived hallucinogen, as a sacrament. The church’s members were granted an exemption through an amendment to the Controlled Substances Act.
In 2006, a New Mexican branch of the Brazilian União do Vegetal church successfully fought for its right to use a sacramental tea called hoasca, which the federal government had seized.
Though the tea contained a banned substance, the Supreme Court did not doubt the church members’ sincerity when they invoked the federal RFRA.
Furthermore, the courtroom could not establish “compelling governmental interest” for interfering with their practice.
Even if the Cannabiterians could establish religious legitimacy, Conkle said, the government might argue that marijuana differs from peyote and hoasca precisely because it has a broad, nonreligious, illegal market.
Conkle says The First Church of Cannabis is on “pretty shaky legal footing.”
GO MDCN!!
I must admit this clay dude has been unlucky for me because when he has shown up for any of the stocks I held that has been a disaster for all of them. He seems to have showed up when the stocks were on the up and up only for them to take a tumble never to go back up. This time he showed up when the stock has already taken a tumble. I hope its a different story on this one but I wont hold my breath with this bad omen in house here!
