DRGI.... more:

Here is a recent article describing the HIV pandemic in Africa...
thebody.com

Why is the above link significant?

DRGI is acquiring a company that produces an oral (saliva)
HIV test.
DRGI has been working closely with Quentiles (NASDAQ-QTRN 38 3/8 close
as of 7/19) to market this test. Quentiles is a partner with DRGI in
this endeavour.
The first market will be Africa... The company tells me this is the
hottest market (makes sense) and will produce the fastest cash flow.
Other markets are southeast Asia and the Philippines.

The other hot market (and this is big too) is illegal drug testing.
The military is the biggest customer. Instead of the standard
"pee in the bottle test" which is very expensive, military units will
be able to orally test their people. The expense will be reduced
drastically due to a huge reduction in lab fees. Currently, every
individual in the military is tested on average 3-4 times per year.
Each sample must be sent to a lab to be tested. How do I know? I retired from the Navy 1.5 years ago and I got tested a hell of a lot more often than 3-4 times a year.

A hepatitis "C" oral test is available now too. I talked to an expert
on hepatitis this morning and he thinks the saliva test will be huge.

The other company is a land development company in Eastern North
Carolina. Not office and warehouse space as I stated twice before.
This is even better...This company builds and sells high end homes.
A number of big name realtors are involved with this one.

These homes go for $200-400K each. This will produce average Profit
of $3M per year for DRGI over the next 5 years. More on this as
details become clearer.

STOCK USED FOR ACQUISITIONS IS RESTRICTED FOR ONE YEAR!
