BigBull, Boris is helping oil prices too!

I rate Russian Military aid to Yugolslavia now up from a 40/60 to a 50/50 possibility- aid coming in the form of armored vehicles, weaponry, surface-to-surface cruise missiles and shoulder fired surface-to-air missiles in order to fight our attack helicopters. Russian intervention is still only a 20/80 possibility, unless we are foolish enough to send ground troops into the sovereign territory of Yugoslavia - then I rate Russian intervention 99% likely..... And oil prices-and bodies-will fly....

Anyone out there still foolish enough to believe that Russia isn't working itself into a fury over watching -in their eyes- 19 NATO Gang-Bangers stomp their cousin to death? And 2:1 I bet that the Russian Spy Ship in the Adriatic is passing along intelligence information to Yugoslavia....

Yeltsin warns of possible
world war over Kosovo

But he says no missiles
re-aimed at NATO nations

MOSCOW (CNN) -- Russian
President Boris Yeltsin warned
NATO Friday not to push Moscow
toward military action over Kosovo,
saying this could trigger a possible
world war. Meanwhile, the Kremlin
denied that Russian missiles had been
retargeted toward NATO countries.

Yeltsin's remarks came during what
some observers described as the
most forceful and extensive public
review of Russian policy in more than
six months, a time during which
Yeltsin often has been seriously ill.

The wide-ranging statements,
televised for a longer length than
usual, came as Russia's
opposition-dominated lower house of
parliament, the Duma, was preparing
for an April 15 debate on moves to
impeach the president.

"I told NATO, the Americans, the Germans: Don't push us towards military action. Otherwise, there will be a European war for sure and possibly world war," Yeltsin said in a meeting with regional leaders.

Earlier in the day, Yeltsin said a NATO ground operation in the Serb
province of Kosovo would not be left unanswered by Moscow.

"They (NATO) want to bring in ground troops, they are preparing for that, they want simply to seize Yugoslavia to make it their protectorate ... we cannot let that happen to Yugoslavia," Yeltsin said.

The Duma, which is dominated by communists and nationalists, has called for military support for Yugoslavia, a fellow Slav and Orthodox Christian nation.

But Yeltsin spoke of the need for caution and diplomacy.

"I repeat again: Russia will not get involved if the Americans do not push us," he said.

Seleznyov comments said to be misunderstood

In Brussels, NATO spokesman Jamie Shea sought to reassure Russia that
ground troops would be considered only in terms of the peacekeepers
needed to secure a peace agreement.

"It cannot be in Russia's long-term interest to isolate itself in the Balkans with (Yugoslav President Slobodan) Milosevic at a time when he himself is more isolated than ever among the countries in the region," British Foreign Secretary Robin Cook said in London Friday.

The speaker of the Russian Duma, communist Gennady Seleznyov, quoted
Yeltsin earlier Friday as saying he had ordered nuclear missiles to be
targeted toward NATO members involved in the bombing of Yugoslavia,
and backed a political union of Russia, Belarus and Yugoslavia.

But the Kremlin later denied this, and Seleznyov's spokesman said his boss had been misunderstood.

Foreign Minister Igor Ivanov, considered a key player in the Kosovo crisis, said he was not aware of any presidential order to retarget Russia's nuclear missiles.

Ivanov further said that a Russian reconnaissance ship in the Adriatic was not passing on intelligence to Yugoslavia in its conflict with NATO. Russia sent the Liman, a small eavesdropping vessel from its Black Sea fleet, to the Mediterranean last week.

Ivanov told reporters: "All information from (the) reconnaissance ship is passed only to Russia."

UNIFAB (UFAB)

post.messages.yahoo.com

"SargeK (M/Tyler, Tx) 358 of 358 Alobar999: "Watch it drop like a rock on Monday...."

"This may be your last chance to BUY UNIFAB at DEEP WELL prices.
It will cross over its 50 DMA of 7.56 today or tomorrow with excellent prospects of crossing the 200 DMA of 9.78 within the next 3 to 6 weeks. VECTORVEST has an assigned value of $$20.60 per share and a projected annual growth rate of 18%. The 18% GRT is the lowest of any of the other rating services and is about half of First Call and IBES projections.

Average volume over the past 3 trading days is almost double the 50DMA. First the volume, then the price..

Short, intermediate or long term UNIFAB probably represents the best percentage gain potential of any company in the Oil Services Industry. Downside at this level is minimal and upside is 300 to 500 percent within a year. At this level (7 1/2) it is a "No Brainer" screaming BUY! BUY IT AND FORGET IT for a year!
