4 degrees here this morning Joe, Brrr!..Don't know how it all will play out today, but CPHD reports earnings today, With a CC at 4:30(it will be interesting to see what they have to say, the company doesn't appear to be a hyping company, so I will be listening closely, especially for mention of company manufactured reagents and reocurring sales revenues from tubes and cartridges)...CPHD has ties to the University of Pittsburgh via research of realtime(1/2hr<g>) PCR ..Bush will be speaking in Pittsburgh today on bioterrorism and the bioterrorism budget..The more I research, the more I like this companies chances..And not just from a bioterrorism point of view, the medical diagnostic implications are really pretty amazing.IMO, the shelf registration news has been factored in to the current price..These shares will occasionally be sold by the company..So we don't have to worry about third party price manipulation games<vbg>.. .... From the article on the pres's visit.. "The president is traveling to Pittsburgh to talk about one of the most important portions of his budget," said Scott Stanzel, a White House spokesman. "Pitt has been doing some good work on public health and the surveillance of disease. ... It's an opportunity to talk to doctors and health care professionals and see some of the work they're doing." One of the highlighted projects is a hospital computer system that could provide early detection and warning of bio-terror attacks. Called the Real-time Outbreak Disease Surveillance system, the 2-year-old program collects clinical information from 17 regional hospitals and looks for signs of infectious disease outbreaks. (sounds like a software program, big deal, give me something new and hightech<vbg>) The system receives data about patient symptoms, ages, genders, addresses and test results directly from computers in emergency rooms and hospitals. It monitors 800 patient visits per day, looking for patterns that might point to a bio-terror attack. The surveillance system is just one of the research projects undertaken by the BioMedical Security Institute, a joint venture of Pitt's Graduate School of Public Health and Carnegie Mellon Last week, the government announced how it would divvy up among states more than $1 billion this year to bolster the nation's public health system, with a focus on bio-terrorism preparedness. Some of that money will finance a new lab in Allegheny County -- possibly to be run in conjunction with Pitt -- that can analyze evidence of suspected bio-terrorism, state officials announced last week. post-gazette.com

Hi Joe Working with the hands is what I do when not on the puter. LOL Now that the kids house is nearly done I have started to tear out one of the upstairs bathrooms. Time to remodel!! There are so many new innovations out there in tile, fixtures etc. that I want to update and use a lot of marble. VASO is more of a TA call than FA. I'm getting to where I don't believe anything that companies say anyway so am listening more to what the buyers and sellers are saying to me. Ken
