To all, Stock basics 101- Topic: What exactly is a short? Basic info, in plain speak copied from the"stockclub.com" for everyone's information. "Actually "shorts" is a poor choice of words to describe the opposite of a "tout", but I couldn't think of a better one. "Shorts" are people who "short" stocks - that is, they reverse the usual sequence of events and sell stocks first (borrowing them to do so) and then later buy them back - hopefully at a lower price. They get to keep the difference, which is how they can make a profit when the price of a stock goes down. Shorts get a bad rap, but shouldn't - shorts keep the market honest and help burst speculative bubbles. Sometimes you should listen to a short. Honest. When things start going bad for a stock, some online forum users seem to always blame the shorts. It's almost never their "fault", though, so you'd be better served by trying to see what went wrong with the company and learn from the experience. It's really quite easy to pick out those who are not here to swap information and opinions, but are just here to influence your decisions. Look for excessive enthuisasm, purported "inside information", a breathless and unrelenting urging to "buy now" or "sell before it's too late". If someone seems to never have any doubts whatsoever about their position, that's a good clue that they might be up to no-good. For the most part, you should ignore these people. If they post "facts" that are in error, correct them - cite your sources. If they post opinions that you disagree with, try to show why they are wrong. Contact the individual directly by e-mail and ask them to tone it down. "

Does GLOW have any trends regarding when they release their PR's? Before Bell/after Bell/ mid day etc. Or has there been No pattern? Jake, been here since middle of March and just looking back they did 2 after the bell and 1 during the day in that time. None before the bell since I have been in. Im glad they are now following their word.. in the past they have stated they will release press releases and then there were delays (for whatever reasons...), but now they seem to be waiting until they are really close to completion on isses before releasing word that press releases are on the way. Love the steady upward on this one, and its still undiscovered by the SI masses.... BC..6M shares in the past 3 days whats really impressive under further analysis is the 1st of the 3 days the price was btw .13 and .20 the 2nd day the price was btw .18? and .26 today it was btw .25 and .34 with almost all the action at .28+ Why is this significant? Because while the share # trading is similar all 3 days, the monetary value is increasing substantially... meaning 3 days ago ave .16 share cost x 6M and now ave .30 share cost x 6M So that is almost double the amount of money worth of stock being traded/coming INTO the stock.... very very good sign. Usually when you see a price increase in the stock, you would think the volume would lower as the stock becomes "more expensive"...but not in GLOW's case. More heavy hitters seem to be working their way into accumulating GLOW. I like it. Hope that made some sense.. Mark
