You are missed Kimberly - The "ignore" feature on SI is not so great as you can still see the person posted, which kind of defeats the purpose. I much prefer the way RB has it where they become invisible altogether. It is so distracting when someone's sole purpose is to infect the thread with negativity. I'm happy to hear you are busy and well (but we miss you)! Jean

Well, she is back (at least in spirit)...the one thing we can credit both Kim and the members of this board for is keeping the spirit of this thing alive even without the Captain of the Ship being on board...that says alot about the quality of posters here, individual picks and team spirit...while I sometimes think we are all in this for our own personal gain, private PM's and well wishers make me think otherwise.

Kim and others on C&S thread. Take a look at this one. From looking at the header on your thread, MDIH may fit for you. SCI-games (NYSE: SG) bought stock at MDIH a few months ago at $2 when the stock was a buck! Sci-games and MDIH earn good money but don't trade with a high PE and will never unless? Sci-games is up for sale(MDIH doesn?t want to buy them) why? Because the growth of sci-games is over when the internet takes over.Sci-games cant have a internet business because it sells the equipment to the states and it would be almost competing against themselves.Also its a dying business! This is where MDIH comes in. .Sci-games buys into MDIH at a major premium because they want to be a big part of MDIH's future!. MDIH starts a Web portal and then MDIH would trade not by PE but by a market cap number. Look at a company ELOTTERY(ELOT ON OTC) (lottery portal site)over a 300 million market cap .MDIH has a 30 million market cap at 3 bucks. (3Million Float/8Million outstanding shares) Take a look at SCI-games and wonder why they don't have a web business plan yet. It doesnt make sense but the investment in MDIH does! MDIH will apply for NASDAQ small cap very soon !Bye Bye OTC-bb forever! Also the business will start to impact 3rd and forth quarter. Do some research on ELOT(NASDAQ). If you spent about five minutes you may find out that ELOT has a market cap of over 600 million dollars. Six months ago this company was selling phones and sold that business to get into the internet lottery business. They are about to open a lottery portal web site to sell lottery tickets when the laws change to inform people and let them play games. ELOT has no lottery experience. The lottery is all about politics and who you know ELOT knows nobody! MDIH with 5 years of lottery experience and SCI-Games the largest in the world. Do you think SCI-Games will let their contacts and tech go to waste . Where is there web business! (the leaders with a market cap of 20 million dollars. I CANT STRESS THIS ANY MORE!!PLEASE DO SOME DD NOW!. AND THIS IS NOT, I repeatNOT AN EARNINGS PLAY. IF YOU THINK THAT, YOU NOT GOING TO BE VERY HAPPY! MDIH has spent over two years building up for what is about to take place over the next several months and we will all make money like you have never seen! BEAR STEARNS made some comments about the E-game industry and how much money will be made in 2002(3 billion dollars est).Another stock firm put a price target of 80 dollars a share on ELOT.IF that could happen MDIH could go to $100. MDIH is in the right business. People play the lottery in every economic environment and in bad times they even play more! MDIH looks great! THE SMART PEOPLE ON THE STREET ARENT BUYING MDIH BECAUSE OF THE EARNINGS>THIS STOCK WILL NEVER TRADE OFF A Price to Earnings ratio! THE EARNINGS WILL BE POOR BECAUSE THE SCI-GAMES WORK WONT HIT TILL 3rd and 4th QTRS > DONT BUY THIS STOCK FOR THE EARNINGS! MDIH WILL MAKE GROUND BREAKING NEWS ! Earnings came out recently. They weren?t encouraging but the stock moved up. The buying that we are seeing is about their future plans. The laws will change about selling lottery tickets over the web. All people involved in the industry answer the question by saying its a state to state event and when one drops they all will eventually drop. MDIH with the help of SCI-Games will be a part of this! All I can tell you is that this is the biggest thing that could happen to MDIH. If you look at ELOT(NASDAQ)market cap with no lottery experience just imagine what MDIH will do when the news comes out! Lottery on the web is all about eyeballs. How many can you get and what else can you do with them. Yes selling a few hundred million dollars of lottery tickets at a 5 percent revenue stream for MDIH would be nice, but taking those eyeballs and using MDIH properties can enhance the lottery experience. ON line and off line companies are merging everyday because it only make sense. Look at AOL and time deal just a few days ago. MDIH will be in the big league soon. Watch the stock action and notice the size of the trades. Its not the mom and pop buying this stock The company lives in a closet, but not for long. Forget about the earnings and focus on the TEAM.SCI-GAMES, MDIH, former state lottery people, Postmaster General, Former CNN founder, and many more VS ELOT(NASDAQ) NOBODY ! ELOT has 500 - 600 million in market cap vs 20 million MDIH! I am not knocking ELOT .I am just saying MDIH is very cheap! The time is very soon because MDIH realizes that ELOT is the talk of the town and the fist one in usually wins, so its time for the hammer to fall. The players that MDIH will bring to this deal could make this stock hit $15-$25 in the next few weeks. News last week about Oracle Deal. The real "FUN" is about to begin. Ohio is expected to announce that they will begin allowing the purchase of Lottery Tickets over the INternet. Ohio paves the way for the first state to sell tickets. When the Private Placement news comes out, we will all be shocked about the size and players involved. Lottery.com is also sitting on major news but will not come out until after the merger is complete. The company will have 25 million shares out,40 million in the bank,a float of 3-4 million shares,and 2 major firms doing a secondary within a few months at16-18 dollars a share.(3 million shares)another 40-50 million dollars in the bank. IT IS POSSIBLE IN THE NEXT TWO YEARS THAT MDIH EARNS 2-3 dollars a share profit.30x earnings gets 90 bucks!THATS IS TRULY ON THE LOW SIDE.THE DAY THIS STOCKS HITS NASDAQ many many firms will get involved in the stock. News today about application for NASDAQ Small Caps. GOOD LUCK! God Bless David D.

NIKU vs DLTK NIKU went IPO yesterday and gained 300%. Today NIKU gained another 32 points to closed above $100. This brings NIKU's market cap to about $7 billion. NIKU is an online enterpraise service provider. Next red-hot area after wireless, linux, b2b, and many others, will be online business services, as prodicted by many analysts. NIKU certainly in a huge market ($7.2 trillion as estimated by analysts) and has huge potential. Here comes DLTK. DLTK is fast growing company doing exact the same thing as NIKU. In other words, DLTK is a leading web-based enterpraise softwere solutions provider. DLTK only has a market cap about $240 million. No debt. Very low float (about 7 million shares). PE is about 14 and earning grow at 60% rate. It is rated as one of best managed company in the US by Forbes. No matter how you look at it, DLTK is much better company than NIKU. NIKU stock price will continue to grow. Maybe it will quickly trade above $200 as many other hot IPO did. How about DLTK? I think DLTK will be discovered by Wall Street very quickly (Hoovers list DLTK as one of NIKU's major competitors)and will start to move up like a rocket. If NIKU can sustain a market cap $7 billion, it may take no time DLTK to have a market cap to $2.5 billion. Yes, this is 1000% return from DLTK close price today. I am loaded with DLTK and waiting for it to take off. Just my two cents. Bo

THREAD ALERT! Believe it or not, the OTC/BB market is incredible; every March has been a standout and every summer a dud. This year is no exception, so far. March is unbelievable. I used to shy away from the OTC/BB but not anymore. I take it very seriously and without analysts to screw things up, it is more pure in some ways. The gains are remarkable. I go to pains to find good quality OTC/BB stocks with relatively excellent fundamentals but even crap is often moving up. You might want to visit a couple threads. SOME RECENT SUCCESSES: EISQ 70 cents to $7.00 FOCS 35 cents to $2.00 SOME TO WATCH: SETO, that I recommended here at about 50 cents, hit $1.50 today; needs to break 1-5/8 JBRD is up and about to possibly explode if it breaks 75 cents. AND MY INTERMEDIATE/LONG TERM FAVORITE BY FAR: KTNV (36 cents) hasn't moved much yet but I fully expect it too, since oil is now about $32 per barrel and their breakeven occurs at only $12 per barrel, and Barron's Feb 21 issue was highly enthusiastic about oil stocks, saying they will go up 50-80%. KTNV will likely go up much much more. CHECK THIS DD IF YOU WANT TO SEE HOW COMPELLING AN OTC/BB STOCK CAN BE: Message 12949231 You may want to check out the Golden Lists thread to get an education on why people love the OTC/BB and for the exciting action, and for my absolute favorite thread click here (very high quality): Subject 24993 Those who are good in the OTC/BB can realistically make 100-300% gains per MONTH in February through April. Yep, there is lots of hype by many and lots of sloppy stock picks but there are some undervalued, profitable and fully reporting companies that are stating to do superbly in the last week or so. Worth a look? ya, I think so.

KTNV up in pre-market; Experts on the energy sector: "People still remain exposed to technology stocks, the big ones, like Microsoft (MSFT: Research, Estimates) but I think people are also looking for some place for safety," said Ron Hill, equity partner, Brown Brothers Harriman, "and so, that safety area is probably something in the oil area - Halliburton (HAL: Research, Estimates), Schlumberger (SLB: Research, Estimates), Transocean (RIG: Research, Estimates). Oil's over $30 a barrel. I think we have got a pretty nice-looking scenario here for better spending on the oil service sector. So earnings should probably do pretty well here going forward." BARRON's: (feb. 21) : "Oil Stocks: Gushing with Opportunity" and inside on page 17, an article entitled "Too Cheap to Ignore" ANOTHER BARRONS QUOTE (from the article): " the biggest winners, however, are apt to be the hundreds of oil-services companies that typically hit pay dirt on increased drilling... the oil-services sector is going to show 50-80% earnings growth in 2000." YET ANOTHER QUOTE (from Michael Mayer, an oil analyst at Schroeders & Co., "The outperformance of the tech sector has created the best buying opportunity [in the oil sector] I have ever seen." YET ANOTHER (from Bear Stearns analyst Fred Leuffer) " They're almost inexplicably cheap."

REUTERS NEWS: * SEC to probe limit orders * From another board: WASHINGTON, March 16 The head of the Securities and Exchange Commission said on Thursday his agency will probe the mishandling of certain stock orders by market-makers which could threaten competition. SEC CHAIRMAN Arthur Levitt also called on the exchanges, in a move toward a more centralized market, to ensure investors are seeing a full range of prices by opening their books for limit orders ? which are requests to buy a security at a set price. The agency?s examiners found that one out of six limit orders was not properly displayed at one stock exchange and the problem was not isolated, Levitt said, according to prepared remarks released ahead of his speech Thursday in Chicago at Northwestern University School of Law. Typically when a limit order is placed, a market-maker must either immediately agree to make the trade at the requested price or display it to the market so the trade could possibly be made elsewhere. ?I am deeply troubled by this apparent disregard for customer orders and systemic competition,? Levitt said. He did not reveal which exchange was involved although it was known to be a regional exchange. SEC officials declined to comment. The SEC is launching a 45-day review to determine how widespread the problem is and and will publicly release a report that examines the display of limit orders in the U.S. equity and options markets. ?MORE EFFICIENT PRICES? ?Limit orders increase the information available to the overall market and allow all market participants to better determine prices,? Levitt said. ?They have begun to level the playing field between dealers and the investing public.? Advertisement The self-regulatory organizations of the various markets are supposed to monitor and ensure that brokers are complying with the securities regulations, including the limit order rules. While Levitt?s prepared remarks did not mention the pending timetable for moving price quotes to decimals, he did say in the speech text that decimals will narrow the spread for bid and offers for orders made at the market price since there will be smaller increments for quotes. ?This means better, more efficient prices for investors,? Levitt said. But it could leave some limit orders unexecuted and reduce the number of those price specific orders, which could harm competition. At the same time, the SEC chairman urged the private sector to get involved and provide an avenue for the markets to make their limit order books available to the public. ?Vendors could consolidate this data and package it in a form that is most useful to their customers,? Levitt said. ?The ability of all investors to see the depth of supply and demand in any stock would be a giant step toward a National Market System.? The top securities regulator said the SEC will hold a round-table discussion on the issue with representatives of the markets, dealers, market data vendors and other interested parties and hoped the industry would hold talks on the subject as well. Levitt has been beating the drum for several months seeking to prevent fragmentation in the U.S. markets as the advent of new marketplaces and alternative trading systems have created a slew of new places to process stock orders. He said the SEC has not determined what, if any, regulatory action should be taken to address the fragmentation of the U.S. market place at this time. Last month some of Wall Street?s top executives said it is time to link the U.S. stock markets electronically so investors get the best prices, although they were divided on how to accomplish that goal. ?The linkages that the Commission has insisted upon have been basic connections that protect customers from pricing disparities,? Levitt said. Earlier on Thursday, the SEC approved a proposal by the National Association of Securities Dealers Inc., the parent of the Nasdaq market, to link electronic communications networks, or ECNs, through the Intermarket Trading System, the electronic linkage through which the nation?s stock exchanges communicate. ?Investors will be the winners as fuller, more robust competition between ECNs and our equity exchanges unfolds,? Levitt said. ¸ 2000 Reuters Limited. All rights reserved. Republication or redistribution of Reuters content is expressly prohibited without the prior written consent of Reuters.

WFFT (What's For Free) UPDATE: MM games will come from time to time; they are running up quick and dropping back the price even quicker on virtually no selling. This went from 16 to 13 on small sells amounting to about 4,000 shares. When the selling stops, the MM's play. They likely need to shake shares loose. Whenever news comes and buying starts, they may find themselves in trouble again. If you treat this like a momo, you may be unhappy. If you are patient and pick your spots, you may be very happy, but no guarantees. Without Level 2 you may be lost on what is happening. Look at the chart; this is stair stepping up. If you want to get in, please DD.

WFFT (9-5/8 x 9-3/4) UPDATE: TV interview this weekend on emergingcompany.com or listen now from the website. Bounced solidly off lows at 7.75; a lot of momo players are hopefully gone. emergingcompany.com The Interview is very informative, you can listen now if you didn't know. They made lots of interesting points: 12 Million companies have goods or services for free They said they have 3 strategic partners now and expect to have about 100 strategic partnerships eventually They will use a very intuitive, natural language search capability: for instance "where can I play a free round of Golf in the phoenix area?" is one question they mentioned They expect very good advertising revenue from all the hits they will get; plus some other rev sources from sponsors and corporations that give to charities. They think Europe will be a very huge market and have locked up domain names there. They are working with a firm called Internet Crossing which has technology that apparently does a particularly effective job of directing search engines request to them. They will also have an "almost for free" site They said stocks somewhat similar to theirs are commanding a much higher market cap and share price and likened this investment to a venture capital price and unique opportunity for the small investor. We will see I guess, won't we? My Favorite comment they made was that Comdex called the free Internet sector the "future of the Internet". Good luck...hope many hold at least a core position through the website launch before considering selling. As always it will be a bumpy road ahead but if you persevere you can hopefully do real well. As always, do your own DD
