If my numbers are correct it looks like they have about 140 million outstanding as of last 2-04.
Market cap less then 1/2 million... Yea it could move allot.
Looks like a bunch of trades went through the last 3 days though. one day with 40+ mil. shares. Guess will see if they want to sell into this news.

Short term only
Long term I love ALMI and IESV
GOOD LUCK ALL
People buying on the lunch time dips
Good Luck all
Much like Q-Bid when I saw it at .0001 when ******** first mentioned it one early Monday morning in February. I knew then it wasn't a long term play, but had short term potential. My conscience kept me (and still keeps me) from it, but I KNEW at .0001 what was going to happen. I'd be retired if I went with my instinct.
And so it goes.
I want to read or watch this somewhere lol
After lunch run?
eom
I can't believe I missed this am I would love to jump into some paris hilton, even had a little cash in the account.
Well, I'll probably miss the next boat too.
Hope you guys make a killing.
Keith
Wow
It just kills me konwing that I could've made thousands on this today instead of a little under $100

She's hot stuff right now for sure, but personally I wish the fad would end.
None of that has anything to do with this play though, as I am glad it's making everyone tons of $$$
Suggestions?
I'm a newbie here so I don't really know what I'm talking about, but I'm trying... ; )

Trust me on this. I am your warlock, good luck charm, magic 8-ball, tarot card, Divine intervention and sooth sayer.
d a r d a d o g put out QBID's early Feb link and I saw it minutes after he posted it. If there is one thing I play more than any other is market emotion and sentiment. I knew this would be an amazing short term play at .0001. For personal reasons, I sat and have watched it grow to 30 times the .0001 price. By now, my mail would be forwarded to my new Jamaican or Cape Cod address.
I saw this very early this morning and tried to free up a lot of money at .0035.
Of course not having a dime in it (yet being one of the first to see it) the stock ended the day at 4 times it's opening price.
I'd say use me as your barometer. I don't own 1 share. Thus, the price will likely close at $23,435.15 per share by the end of the week.
Be well, Bo(nehead)

So I'm going to interpert that as a
" you should probably pick some up" .
I'm really new at this and I don't have a lot of income. I just felt it was time that I really start saving for my future so I picked up an IRA over at scottrade. I know that pennies are volitile... but I really feel that I need to get some more capital in my IRA before I stat investing in the larger more staple stocks. Pennies seem to be the easiest way to get there. I have strong positions (well strong for me lol) in QBID & GZFX.
I lurk a lot on this forum... mostly on QBID and GZFX and I haven't seen you post before.
You been doing this long?
e2
ALMI and IESV - are much better stocks
long term
WNMI is making me more money at this time lol
BINGO
21 years...most of my port is in large caps, but moved a good chunk into this arena as the opportunity is there, as has been proven.
A short term play such as qbid was easy to spot, just as this was this morning. As for long term here, our society gravitates to celebrity, even though most stars these days only last 2-3 years in the spotlight and fade from there. Only a few have the desire or star power to stay in the spotlight after that. Here you have about 2 years of spotlight left, unless her career matures from there.
Being serious, do your own research. Your decision will spring from that.
Doing the opposite of what I did QBID would have made your portfolio swell. The good Lord knows I tried to get in at .0035 here, but it wasn't in the cards I guess.
The next time I get a feeling like I got this morning, or the morning I saw the very first QBID news in early Feb, I'll be sure to post...lol.
Be well,
Bo(nehead)
I will probaly get rid of most of QBID when they hit 2-5 cents. In the meantime, I'm gunning to pick up some more if it dips again... (buy order in at 24).
However, I was thinking of using the money I had set aside for that... on WNMI (since QBID looks like it may not dip that low for a little while) and increase my cash a bit. A company like WNMI is really difficult to research from what little I learned, because it's so damn subjective being in the entertainment industry. So I'm not sure where to start. QBID of course is in the entertainment field too... but somehow seems more certain.
I know to watch the RSI for overbuying... and that's one of many many things I should look at I'm sure. With a RSI of 89... like someone said the technicals are out the window on this one. It's all emotion. So how in the world do you DD emotion lol?
Anyhow... we'll see what happens tommorrow. Perhaps I will grow some balls tonight and take a chance on WNMI.
Take care,
e2
lol...

14,657,818 shares of Common Stock
The aggregate amount in row 9 represents the maximum amount of shares that Balmore S.A. can control under a contractually stipulated 9.9% ownership restriction.
FYI:
If the 14 mil is 9.9 percent of the company then the outstanding is about 147 million.
I would bet they gave more shares to Paris for her sighning... We shall see.
[This message has been edited by Bob Frey (edited March 24, 2004).]
The exception is that there was a ton of shares traded the few days prior to the release. This will normaly lead to large sellers into the news resulting in lower prices at the end of the day. I would have expected this.
The reason it didn't happen in my opinion is that there was so much hype over the Paris thing the seller(s) were mostly bought out by the .004 to .005 level. And so it ran.
Then the daytraders took charge.
The reason it was a classic winner in my opinion is that..
If you watched the " quote request leaders " before the bell it never showed up. Flew below the radar of many till after the open.
The news was out well before the bell so that some could be prepared.
The news it's self was headline making stuff in venues other than the business world. Entertainment tonight could still do a story on it.
Low float of about 140 million shares. Low Market Cap.
Once the markets opend and trading started we saw a small gap and lots of buying.
All the above said:
Good news...
Low Float & Mkt cap...
Low volume trading in the days and weeks before.
Small interest or buys at the open.
Small or no gap in opening ask price.
Can and often does equal a BIG winner.

THis IMO is a good buying point for this afternoon.

I got in this morning, watched it for about 45 minutes and it kept jumping between .0125 and .0123 for a while and then got down around .0120 for a few seconds.......and I placed an order at .0120. I wish I would have waited though because it fell below .0010 which I didn't think it would do.
Anyway, I am thankful for Paris Hilton for 2 reasons.
1. She made this stock go crazy which only she could do.
2. She has a good video which I can send to anybody if you would like it.....
I am just kind of curious on what your target price is for this stock. I did do some DD last night and I think that with Paris Signed on we will easily break the annual high of .055; within a couple of days as you said. After that however I am lost. What are your thoughts on how long to hold?
I know it's a waiting game sometimes. I just got overzealous with yesterdays exsplosion lol.
Hey glfpimp... funny you should metnion the video. What's you email? I was trying to find a copy to give to my best friend's husband as a prank gift. I'd love not to have to scower ebay lol... (besides his bday is next week so I have to get it soon).
Yeah so I don't know if it will hit .05 or anything... but I am aiming low and getting out. I am starting to look around for another quick turning stock similar to this though any suggestions? I don't want to do this more than once (in a short period of time) because I don't want to be get that"day trader" lable from the gov.

Let's say you buy 100k shares @.01--- every penny is a grand in your pocket---if you watch a real runner you will see that at some point they start to jump BY THE PENNY--i am not suggesting this one will do that --BUT

Back down again... I guess I set my sells too high.
I wouldn't call my self a day trader... I guess I'm just experimenting right now so that I can raise some more capital soon.
I just got in too late today that's all there was to it.
Oh well... whatever : )

technical versus fundamental---
50 million?---investment rules make this PPS still a bargain
Looking at more of a short-intermediate hold. Paris Hilton is a major name, and if they are going to sign a major like that, I doubt they will stop there.
This one has .25 written all over its future.

What kind of an account do you trade out of? Are you doing an IRA retirement account? That's what I'm using... want to get into the regular sort of investing (so I can actually spend some of the money), but I'm foggy on the taxes and whatnot so I figure a ROTH is the safetest place to be.
I'm really really hoping that this goes back down to a penny or less tommorrow. I want to do the same thing I did today... then I will probably walk away... that or leave a tiny position in there. Don't want to press my luck.

THE ONLY POST YOU MUST READ:
I've Owned 2 Million WNMI Since NOVEMBER, (Since Post #25) here's the scoop:
Paris Hilton buying Warning Model Management is a joke, ignore the loser that posted that.
I don't buy any pennys without research to the point of calling the CEO. Since I live an hour from Beverly Hills, I actually drove down to their offices to see for myself -Last November.
The suite is on the 4th Floor of the Bank of America building and it is ABSOLUTELY BEAUTIFUL. The B of A building is on the corner of S. Santa Monica and Beverly Blvd. -exactly one block east of Rodeo Drive, right in the ultra ritzy part of town. Inside the suite they have 7 offices that I could see in plain view, with several employees in each of them, a receptionist just as you enter the suite, a waiting area, pictures of their models all over etc etc etc.
I spoke with the director since they have never had anyone walk in before asking for investor relations. He's been in the biz for 15 years. He owned New York Models, LA Models and now the Warning name has become extremely popular world wide. They only deal with top models and have the majority of current Victoria's Secret, so basically you won't see any of their models doing Tidy-Bowl commercials. He even gave me the password to their website login- warning, password- 90210.
This company is the real deal. Paris Hilton chose Warning because they are a glamorous company and they fit her criteria. This is only the start of big things for WNMI.
I've sat on this stock for 5 months and have been in consistent contact with the company. If you are wondering whether to hold or sell, I suggest hold. Warning has been working on hiring a marketing company for several months now (Subway). The press releases have been building up for weeks while they waited for The Subway to take over. I expect a series of substantial press releases, -call it an educated guess.
What makes Warning the most undervalued stock on the OTCBB and the stock most ready to continue higher???
1. Warning has hovered at its support line for over 6 months now.
2. Warning will soon be plastered all over American and European televisions when their episode of "Faking It" finishes production this month. OVER and OVER based on all the re-runs I see on BBC America and Discovery's TLC.
3. Inevitable PR for their "Faking It" episode.
4. THEY ARE TOTALLY UNDERVALUED.......currently trading at less than 1/4 of current income. With the “Dina Ziegler” press release, they will now be trading at less than 1/10th of their value. Many stocks trade at 20 times their earnings. This stock is worth at least 20 cents a share. -AT LEAST
5. Paris Hilton and Friends
6. Inevitable HUGE PR due to the Trademarking of their product line in America AND Europe. Can you see Paris Hilton plastered all over E! wearing a WARNING T-Shirt?
7. And the icing on the cake? NAKED WOMEN on the website. What could be better to add a little glamor to a stock? Check it out for yourself....WARNINGMODELS .COM Login: WARNING Password: 90210

Ps. Do the fundamentals really look all that great on this thing?
Hey, saw the post just though I'd reply. Like I've said before, I'm only 17 years old so an IRA isn't really the top thing on my mind now. I've just collected about $2000 from working and have placed it into an Ameritrade account and begun day trading from there.
You sure got the stress part right because I feel it all the time with trading. It's just the hardest thign to know when to buy and when to sell. I saw the first post two mornings ago about Hilton and Warning and I was tempted to buy at .003 but I decided to wait till I got home and by that time I blew it. Then when I did buy it it started to go down and I panicked and sold out where I only made about a $60 profit and then minutes later, BAM, huge jump and I could've made over $500 on it.
Obviously no one is perfect and it takes so much time, practice, and yes, it's gonna have to take a little luck to to execute the trades at the perfect low and the perfect high, but if I had done that I could've made in the $16,000 range but instead I'm sitting on a small loss now because I bought in earlier today around .0215 and it closed below that.
I highly doubt this stock will be going down to below a penny tomorrow. If I had thought of there being ANY chance of that I would never have bought where I did. It's hard to say though what will happen but I don't see that as really being one of the options
Good luck with your trading.

i agree i kicked myself when i sold 100k shares at .019 it went down to .016 and i thought i did thr right thing but then it went to .028 and i knew i lost my exit. when it closed at .0194 i thought i could get in thursday at .015-.018 but after reading all the posts on all the boards im hoping to buy in anywhere under .03 190,000,000o/s and we traded 550,000,000 in two days my prediction .05 friday and .15 next week if ibzt can run from.01to.08 in a few days i think this can too as always do the dd and cross your fingers

I just caught this WNMI post a couple days ago. After 2 consecutive days of watching spectacular rises with no cash in my Ameritrade account, I thought I missed the boat.
Well, I decided this morning that I wanted in on this WNMI action. I actually SOLD 10k of GZFX to buy 40k shares of WNMI @ $0.024.
Can you believe that!? If WNMI had fallen, I would have made the biggest bonehead move ever... selling off GZFX shares 2 days before it launches.
I now have 60k of GZFX and 40k of WNMI... both did great today! Both have potential of reaching $0.25 (?)... so in the long term, I like to think that I doubled my potential here.
Any other day, I would have been a bonehead... today, I feel like a genius.
I now have $100 residual cash in my Ameritrade account, what should I do next?

I will ride GZFX through next week (after their website and TV ads launch). If I sense a correction, I will decide then if I should sell a portion of GZFX, and buy free shares of WNMI.
I've been in on GZFX since 0.055, and plan to stay in until at least this summer ($1.00?). But I gotta spread my eggs across different baskets.
This is the best week I've ever had!
Good luck to everyone! And thanks for this post!
I watch everyday, and your info is very helpful.
I'm another one that will have to act on faith as I will be at work & will not be able to even check on this till Wednesday!
Oh well, won't be the first time I tried a momentum trade & got burnt. I have a sneaky suspicion this thing may not be anywhere near done!

I use Ameritrade and have a Margin account so I don't have to wait the 3 days for the money to clear. Because of that I've been able to make a few quickies on some of the dips and rises with WNMI. I'm also in at .034 for 50,000 shares. I just made a profit of around $1000, buying in at .0021 and selling at .003.
Good luck with this one everyone! Patience is key!
Thanks in advance for any response!

If I sell shares of one stock tomorrow, can I instantly buy shares of another company with that money????? I know this seems dumb, but I don't know the answer. Thanks for any help!!!!!

If you sell your stocks tomorrow and buy shares in another company you will have to keep the new stock for 3 business day because you are making a purchase with unsettle fund. The money from the selling of your stocks take time to become settled fund, at least that's how it is with Scottrade.
Again, thanks for the answer.

As long as you make sure that you're only using money that you have but has just not settled you'll be fine. I've placed about 4 day trades (bought and sold the same stock the same day) borrowing $2000 each time because the $2000 I initially had has yet to settle, and from that money I made abotu $1050 and the interest I owe from borrowing money is only about $6, less than the average commision of one trade.
If you're serious with the daytrading and you want to continue it is imperative that you change your account to a margin account. Without that you will only be able to trade the money in your account once every three business days which will become an annoyance.
As to WNMI, good luck to everyone on this stock. I wish I had the patience to just hold this stock for a week or two or three but I'm to anxious and eager and I like to just play the little jumps which can be benificial at times but for the most part it hurts me.
At one time I had 350,000 shares at .006 but I sold that around .0062. Coulda made tons more there.
Another suggestion to anyone would be to set up TWO accounts. I'm going to do that soon. One for the quick daytrades and then one for longer term trades. Stocks like this and QBID can be put into the longer term ones (weeks to months).
Good luck everyone!

Glassman, I wish I had started at 18...Im an OLD 21 now!! Also, margin changes the way you play the game, ONLY because it allows you to bypass the three day rule! I dont think that I owuld actually buy on the margin. But, its good to know that if you buy a flopper, you can sell it right away and move your money into something more expeditious RIGHT AWAY!
Anyway, looks like it'd be a good idea to get back in when it retraces to the mid 3's. Sell at 4 and change and smile.

I think the price will go down first to .025 then move to the range of .05-.052 then return to .035-.037 by the close. This seems to be the trend for our lovely market makers to make there short term money.
Good luck to all on this stock. I am holding my small amount that I have for a while longer before jumping the bandwagon.
The big question I have is... that leaves about 640,000,000 shares authorized but not issued yet. Those could be released...anytime? More DD is needed.
Second...I wonder why there was no 10-K filed in February 2004.
While I'm at it...Why did the former CEO resign in February and why has there been no PR about a replacement. (Although I would consider taking the job if it were offered...;=)

THE PSYCHOLOGY OF CORRECTIONS
What drives most investors off course is the sudden onset of a correction. This significant decline in a bull market (or significant advance in a bear market) evokes a myriad of emotional reactions: anxiety, panic, euphoria, relief, hope, despair, self-blame, anger. What underlies these ephemeral psychological states is usually an intense feeling of uncertainty stimulated by one's own inability to organize what is happening in the market into some coherent idea to guide our actions. Investors fear holding their position because a correction in a bull market may turn out to be the beginning of a bear market; and they fear selling because of capital losses, transaction costs, and concern about missing the resumption of the bullish tend.
Corrections
The primary question in all such corrections, however, is whether the drop in prices is the first leg down in a bear market or whether it is merely a short interruption in a major upward trend. Hindsight is always very accurate. If the market drops 5%-15% and resumes its upward momentum, we look back and call it a correction.
Corrections, as opposed to most bear markets, tend to occur as steep and sudden declines in market averages and individual stocks; but the volume levels in correction phases tend to decrease as the market drops. Bear markets, in general, are slower to develop and have increasing volume as the decline continues. Bear markets usually produce fear; corrections typically evoke anxiety.
Psychological Factors
Emotional stability is the primary force, which prevents disaster during a correction. Such stability means not yielding to the characteristic psychological reactions during this period.
It is a psychological axiom that human beings pay much more attention to negative than positive news. The proclivity toward believing negative news, when combined with the human tendency to place the highest value on most recent information generally creates undue pessimism in the investment community. Not only is this true with regard to broad market corrections, it is even more relevant to corrections in individual stocks.
Rumors and Gossip
Because any correction is perceived as a crisis by most investors, there is a natural tendency for individuals to retreat to herds for protection, just as our evolutionary history teaches. Herd mentality, fostered by corrections, promotes rumors and inaccurate information. Even the most rational investor is subject to such influence if the messages are repeated often enough in disparate contexts. With Internet communications inaccurate information becomes "truth" in a matter of minutes. Only those who perceive themselves, as outsiders, individuals who don't quite fit in with the current system and have come to terms with that status, seem able to resist capitulating to the rumors and gossip promulgated by the herd.
Given the above psychological traps, there are several ways to protect yourself ahead of and during any correction.
1) Know ahead of time what you will sell and what you will hold in a correction. During the correction is not the time to be sorting out your portfolio.
2) Treat all corrections as opportunities to increase holdings in your favorite stock. For individual investors this means buying only half to three quarters of the stocks you want to own and then waiting for a pull back to buy the remaining shares.
3) Ignore yearly relative performance. You should not worry about out-performing the market or other investors on a short-term basis. Tolerating extended periods of under performance makes no difference as long as your stocks perform in a way that meets your long-term investment goals.
4) Treat the increasing noise in the media about devastating corrections as a contrary indicator. The best time to be a contrarian is at major turning points in the market.
5) The primary factor, which counters anxiety in a correction, is accurate knowledge of a company. Particularly in volatile markets, you should not hold companies about which you have little information.

Paris Hilton & WNMI
Saturday, March 27, 2004
NEW YORK, NY --(WWW INTUIT_BUSINESS WIRE) --3/27/2004 1:30pm Paris Hilton currently filming The Simple Life 2 and will soon be seen as the leading actress in the upcoming horror flick [House of Wax] is simultaneously working on a pop-album and a possible book proposal entitled Tongue-in-Chic: Paris Hilton's Confessions of an Heiress [from what we know so far this young starlet holds nothing back].
Hilton’s captivating beauty and sex appeal currently embellish the covers of several popular magazines, including FHM, Elle and Maxim. Thanks to the success of the hugely popular reality TV series, “The Simple Life,” Ms. Hilton now enjoys an unprecedented level of fame and popularity. No matter where you look, there she is, a fantasy come true. Indeed, she’s at the forefront of media attention and adulation – which is exactly what she enjoys.
This week Ms. Hilton signed an exclusive modeling contract with one of the world’s fastest growing modeling agencies: Warning Model Management Inc. of Beverly Hills, CA 90210. You want to talk about charisma, Warnings stock price[symbol; OTC.BB WNMI] shot up 300% when the news hit the canyons of Wall St.
Overnight, she became America’s favorite socialite and a global household name with her infamous “home videos”. Now rumors have it this Hilton hotel heiress may soon have her cute cheeks the center piece of the new [Warning!] clothing line that ranges from jeans to underwear and beachwear to sleepwear. If the Warning clothing line catches on fire like her sex video and the stock price did then her millions of young fans worldwide are sure to make the current share price of WNMI @ $0.027 one the the most compelling and undervalued equities in the stock market
The Warning management team recently filed [Filing Date: 2003-10-27] with the United States Patent and Trademark Office for a Trademark giving the rumors an appealing foundation.
http://tarr.uspto.gov/servlet/tarr regser=serial&entry=78318935
The Smart Money won't wait for the Paris evolution because the big money is made before the revolution hits the masses. With the share volume hitting all time highs this past week you can be sure the Paris+WNMI relationship is spreading internationally. One word of caution; [WNMI] is best suited for aggressive type strategies that invest with meaningful risk.
The company’s Annual Report is expected next week but our sources say there will be a late filing [Form Type: NT 10-K] on Monday or Tuesday. The 10K will more then likely be delayed because of several positive developments taking place so if you’re a shareholder you know what to expect.
For now keep your eyes on Paris [that's easy] and WNMI’s daily volume and any additional blockbuster PR’s because this could transform this penny stock into your personal windfall.
Be well, Bo
Faking will air on April 1 @ 9 on TLC.
I havent gotten in yet and I think its too late...is it?
Visions - I believe it will pull back to mid-low .02's Monday morning....

Those share "on the shelf" belong to the COMPANY not inside holders--by regulation they should issue an SEC statement(and or seek shareholder aproval--big LOL) regarding the issuing of those shares to insiders BEFORE they can be dumped---
why use those shares if the company is for real--they are a business asset---and they are a concern
if anyone can dig up dirt on the directors/board that helps us determine if this company is out to GROW or out to take advantage of INVESTORS by all means CONTRIBUTE
Excellent find on that post from in2it!
This stock does not take a brain surgeon. Are you on it?
Either way good luck. We certainly are on the same page where IBZT is concerned.

The 0.1 dosen't mean anything to the current price but the 50,000,000 more shares does. As I figure it we could be up to about 190,000,000 outstanding. However these shares could have allready been issued and part of the Feb. 8k's where I got the 140,000,000 number.
All in all still a prety low outstanding share count for a micro if the numbers are correct.
Still would be a bit worried about delution if they are paying in shares for these folks like Paris and such to join there firm.

I bought this in the first place becuase I was planning on huge revenues from Paris Hilton alone. Now, I find out about the clothing line which could be HUGE, now they sign that professional surfer, they have a tv show airing soon.
Things are going great, I lost some money today on this company but so what. In a week I won't even remember this thing being under .04 cents!
That's right, that share price is like poetry.
All this company has is good news comming & I can't wait to see what Paris comes up with to increase the value of her brand new shares!

I think its a clerical mistake of some kind. I notice while watching stocks in real time, I'll see a crazy jump. I saw one today with TSBB, a subpenny stock, jump 800%. I was rejoicing because my portfolio value had increased substantially but it was an error.
Hopefully this is not an error and it really is .25 but probably not.

How does the after hour market effect the daytime pps?

I don't think otc stocks can trade after hours. I think these are just adjustment/corrections. But for stocks that trade afterhours and pre-market, their share price effects the opening price per share of the next market day. So you can actually loose or gain money based on what goes on in afterhours and pre-market trading. That's why on some stocks you will see it close at one price and open at another.

You have to be patient and let the market do its corrections.
Additionally, April 1 is a new quarter. This stock will turn around just have to wait ont he right timing.
For me I own 170K shares @0.22. I am in it for the ride.
WAAAAAHOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
After a big run like that expect an almost 50% retracement check out runs on PLkc about 50% qbid less than 50. I am sure there are many more.
I played this one poorly and I am still in I'm expecting the lowest it will drop is to .015 people are pulling out after making money and some will jump in when this retracement ends.

Maybe it's being pushed low by the MM's?
I'm wondering if we can hit 5 cents again before the end of the week...

1) He does not know when the episode of 'Faking It' featuring WARNING will be aired. He knows it is in the works but he has not been given an air date.
2) The company is working on both the Quarterly and Annual reports and are expected soon, but again, he doesn't know when.
3) When asked about new pending Press Releases, he cautiously stated that they would issue a Press Release when news that warrants it becomes available, BUT- I probably won't have to wait long. He said they have alot of positive things happening right now.
In retrospect, I know he has to be very careful about what he says, but I came away with a positive feeling about this co.

What I learned "don't be greedy"
I understand that it varies from stock to stock and person to person. I'm 17, I really can't be losing too much money. I have about 2k invested into this so about 400 gone now. Should I take the chance for it to get back to where I bought or do you guys think it's time I should get out?
Thank you!

Been looking over the time and sales for the last 2 days, and even though it has retraced, there was still a LOT of buying going on.
Translation: There are still a lot of bitter investors with ichy sell fingers that are going to be looking for a chance to minimize losses, break even, or turn a very small profit the first chance they get.
Without some MAJOR PR, this will be a bumpy retrace.

With all due respect, cause I do love this stock as it returned a 100% gain for me, but you cant HOPE for a stock's price to rise based on its run a few days ago. DONT tie emotion into trading. Im still new to trading (3mnths) but IMO this stock shows no signs of a reversal untill it bottoms out around .015 (where the 50 day MA sits on a daily chart) or .01 (where the 200 day MA sits). The intraday charts, which most traders frequently check, show the MA's (Moving Average's) stacked improperly. The stock is currently in a down trend and, IMO, it needs a nice solid PR to reverse things. IMO, it will reverse eventually and produce returns so if your holding long then keep holding. Good Luck to all on this one and remember, Ive only been trading for a few months so dont live by this evaluation. Its just my opinion...

Not really sure if I should sell and watch or just ride this one out. I bought 90,000 at .021 so I'd be at a little loss now. I don't see any reasno why this stock can't just continue to climb so I think I'll hold on to it for a little bit. Good luck to everyone on this stock.

Lets not let these past few down days get us down. We all know the potential for a stock like this. The signing of these two stars , espicially Paris Hilton will create lots of publicity for this company.
Everyone said before anyway that this could be a longer term hold for a stock. Lets not get all down on it just because of the past few down days. I lost a LOAD of money on this stock but I still have confidence it will go back up. As I write this I see a jump to .022 so things are looking good right now...
So many people were beating themselves for not getting in low enough before...this thing has hit nearly .05 so don't miss out on a chance to double up, possibly more in the long term.

Warning Model Management is a full service model and talent Agency.

We also provide models and actors for all forms of TV work as well as industrial videos and in some cases personal appearances and promotions.
Warning differs from all L.A. agencies by providing to the local industry in L.A. a level of talent previously only found in New York and Paris. We have achieved this by focusing on those clients that use L.A. as a location rather than a base and making available the talent they require here saving them (in many cases) the expense of having to fly those models in. We can do this through the advancement and application of an interactive web site that has made the old ways of transporting bulky portfolios by messenger obsolete.

So can somebody tell me if "Faking It" airs regularly on TLC or are they just showing a few episodes here and there. Also, when can we expect to see WNMI's "Faking It?"
TLC has the schedule for 'Faking It' on their website. More new shows are scheduled for late in April.
I believe the website is www.tlc.discovery.com

I'm not sypathizing with the MM's, but the last time I traded through Ameritrade for WNMI, they used NITE as the MM to trade the order.
What I'm saying is I believe that there could be legitimate orders that they are processing as well.
Bob
This one is shaping up well I'm looking for a good end of the day run here.

Well all I know is with friends like nite I dang sure do not need enemies. He dropped his bid to .023 from .0265 then turned around and also brought down the ask as well. He was at .026 then went to .025. Whenever he moves it follows him. So if you want to help me move the bid to .08 and the ask to .09.
If so, did it have anything to do with Warning tonight? I didn't get a chance to check it out.
Thanks

Very very hot stock! Handle with care!
------------------
whizknock
I've noticed that over the last 6 or 7 days there is a pullback in the later part of the trading day, and that may or may not happen today.
However, if you own WNMI, it may not be wise to pull out this afternoon for the following reasons.
#1 WNMI is expected to complete their audit on Monday, April 5. the earnings should be released soon after that. That could send this stock to the moon, and the last thing anyone wants is to start chasing this stock. WNMI's people seem like they're very good at public relations, and this could make their release have even more of an impact.
#2 'Faking It' has finally started airing. Although the episode with WARNING is still down the road, the fan base will start to build so by the time the episode airs, there will even more exposure. Also, they are doing a ton of advertising of the program right now.
#3 I expect another non-financial Press Release soon, as they have alot of things in the pipeline. If there is another PR on Monday, The impact could be phenomenal for us.
These are just a few observations as we start on Friday, so if you can hold 'em just one more day....
IMHO

If I can get some more funds I'd love to long term WNMI ... but I don't see that happening right now. Perhpas when my portfolio gets bigger I guess.

I know what you mean. I bought it & won't watch. Don't need to. This company is all about fashion & needs to stay in the news. When they take off I will not need a ticker to tell me. WNMI will be all over the evening news & we'll get excited check the ticker to find out it exploded on some big contracts. This one's going to be fun when I least expect it!

So you don't watch this stock and sell at about 5 cents and re buy at .02 reuse the money to accumulate more shares. WHY?

So you would recomend me to hold my 36700 shares untill 1.55. how long do you think that it will take to hit that mark?

LET ME PAINT THE PICTURE.
FOR A STOCK TO MOVE CONSIDERABLY... YOU NEED HYPE! WE'VE GOT THAT. BEAUTIFUL WOMEN WITH NAMES THAT ARE RECOGNIZED WORLDWIDE IS HYPE! YOU NEED HAVE A STRONG OR GROWING REVENUE BASE. WELL OBVIOUSLY WE HAVE THAT....
GZFX HAD THE HYPE... THE STRONG PLAN... AND EVEN RECENTLY THE DELL GUY... THEIR SHARES WENT FROM SUB PENNY TO .16 IN A FEW MONTHS WITH A BIGGER FLOAT.
I BELIEVE WNMI HAS MORE HYPE. AND MORE INTEREST AND A SMALLER FLOAT. THEY ALSO HAVE A PLAN OF ACTION TO GROW AND A GROWING REVENUE BASE.
WHO'S SELLING. THE ONLY PEOPLE SELLING NOW ARE THE ONES THAT THINK FOR SOME REASON THAT THEY MIGHT BE ABLE TO BUY IN A LITTLE LOWER IF IT SHOULD HAPPEN TO GET THERE. BUT THEY ARE BUYERS.. AND THEY WILL BE THE PEOPLE CHASING IT UP IF THEY SHOULD FIND OUT THEY WERE WRONG.
THIS IS IT. I'LL TELL YOU THE WAY I SEE IT. BUY YOUR SHARES. HOLD YOUR SHARES. MAYBE TAKE A VACATION FOR A FEW MONTHS.
THIS WILL BE ONE OF THE BEST RETURNS ON YOUR INVESTMENT FROM CURRENT LEVELS FOR THE REST OF 2004! MARK MY WORD.
EVERY TIME YOU GO TO THE GROCERY STORE AND SEE A MAGAZINE STAMPED WITH PARIS HILTONS PICTURE. THINK TO YOURSELF... I OWN A PIECE OF THAT PIE. AND IM REFERRING TO THE COMPANY WITH EXCLUSIVE PRINT RIGHTS. WNMI
WNMI. WARNING MODEL MANAGEMENT ... THIS IS ONLY THE BEGINNING... THEIR MODELS WILL BE ON "FAKING IT" IN A FEW WEEKS. FREE NATIONAL/INTERNATIONAL BRAND NAME RECOGNITION... NAME RECOGNITION... IS KEY
KEEP IN MIND THEY ALSO HAVE RECENTLY FILED THE TRADEMARK AND APPEAR TO BE ON THEIR WAY TO A CLOTHING LINE LAUNCH. WHY NOW? THINK ABOUT IT. BIG NAMES... BIG EXPOSURE. THE TIME IS NOW!
AND YES... HELLO... MALIA JONES PRODUCT LAUNCH COMING! THINK? MONEY!
THEY HAVE GREAT MANAGEMENT. THIS COULD VERY WELL BE THE STOCK THAT TAKES YOU OVER THE TOP. I SAID THIS ABOUT GZFX AT .02 AND I WAS RIGHT ON THE MONEY. IM SAYING IT AGAIN. LOCK AND LOAD! DO NOT LET GO. THIS IS BIG! VERY BIG!
DON'T BE THE GUY THAT COMES BACK A FEW MONTHS AGO... AND SAYS... WOW... HOW'D YOU GUYS DO IT! BE THE GUY ON THE OTHER SIDE SAYING "I DID IT!" MACH

Well, I guess this is the day for QUESTIONS.
This being the FMDAY board, I don't want to turn the discussion to me or my business.
Fortunately, I don't know very much from the inside at Warning Model Mamagement.
What I do know is probably okay to say.
I think Paris Hilton has been more involved with the clothing line. She designed some things of her own- purses, etc.
I think the name WARNING has been trademarked for clothing.
I can't visualize myself carrying a purse with a WARNING tag, though.
There is an apparel company (in Israel) that is involved
somehow, Delta Galil Industries. Perhaps, they have some ideas.
But in any case the line, if it develops, will probably be attached to or promoted by Paris.
As far as making you some money with WMNI,
I am not opposed to helping you.
How about you helping me make some money with FMDAY-
I am new here.
My broker told me to invest incrementally
when I saw opportunities under $2.
I bought some this morning at $1.97.
It started to zoom shortly after.
It's been fun to watch today.

Be blessed
The only news that we can be sure will be released any time soon, is the Earnings Report, which should be out no later than April 15, 2004.
As far as that report is concerned, the news will probably not be very positive, due to the following reasons.
1) They have a new CEO/Chairman of the Board, who took over the helm in mid-February, 2004. Although the change took place after the end of the last fiscal year, the fact that the former CEO/Chairman resigned abruptly, is a concern. Not that I believe there was anything wrong, but with a new management team in place, they will want to make sure the current fiscal year will be at its most positive.
2) With all the positive news lately, WARNING must have been working on these deals for some time, and there must have been some costs associated that were not able to be recovered last year.
3) WARNING has been looking to move upward and onward. To do this efficiently, they needed to 'clean-up' their business operations. I expect to see this reflected in their Earnings Report.
In the long term, they appear committed to bringing in a stable business environment, which will be good for everyones profit.

Trump To Hire Hilton for Miss USA Pageant
6 February 2004 (WENN)
Hotel heiress Paris Hilton has been tapped to take on her biggest role yet - as the host of this year's Miss USA pageant. The 22-year-old blonde has been handpicked by property mogul Donald Trump to lead his 53rd annual contest, which will be held on April 12 in Los Angeles. Trump, who came up with the idea while spending time with Hilton's parents Kathy and Rick at his Mar-a-lago estate in Palm Beach, Florida, says, "I've known Paris since she was a little girl. She's a fine girl... I think she will give the pageant its highest TV ratings."
Donald Trump Negotiates with Paris Hilton
NEW YORK — Despite being tall, leggy and glamorous, socialite Paris Hilton doesn't exactly dress or act like a pageant queen.
Donald Trump, however, thinks Hilton could be a pageant host, and is negotiating with her to host the Miss USA Pageant, which he owns.
Trump told Us Weekly magazine he got the idea while Hilton's parents, Kathy and Rick, were visiting him at his Mar-a-Lago estate in Palm Beach, Fla. And he said Hilton's infamous Internet xxx tape doesn't bother him.
"I've known Paris since she was a little girl," Trump said. "She's a fine girl ... I think she will give the pageant its highest TV ratings."
The 53rd annual Miss USA Pageant is scheduled to air April 12 on NBC, live from the Kodak Theatre in Los Angeles.

This thing won't stay under a quarter for long. Cabbage I forgot about that connection. You know Trump owns many of the casinos in AC. They each have a handfull of upscale giftshops. I can't imagine they wouldn't be selling Warning's line of clothes.

Yes, I've dealt with Warning and their models. Excellent agency. Though many they represent are out of town, they find some fantastic talent.
If you can sign with Warning, you will probably work a lot in this town. This agency is the creme de la creme in LA.

A welder welcomes the chance to put down his torch to try to turn up the heat as a male model. Faking It tries to de-scruff a grungy, scrap-yard worker so he can hit the runways of the fashion world.
Model-to-be Todd Farrand needs to be hosed off by his mentors, Spencer Salley and Mark Fisher, who have over 30 years of experience combined. Looking good isn't good enough. Successful models walk, talk and act like models, and to fit in Todd must leave his preconceived notions on the dressing room floor. Todd learns that coast-to-coast flights and endless photo shoots can turn even a blue-collar Joe into a screaming diva. But is he too tired to pass his final test in front of a panel of high-level fashionistas?

Warning Agency Stars in Worldwide TV Documentary
BEVERLY HILLS, Calif., Nov. 06,2003 (PRIMEZONE) -- Spencer Salley director of Men's Print (department of WARNING MODELS) (OTCBB:WNMI), and two of Warning's SUPERMODELS, Kiara and Mark Fisher, and the WARNING AGENCY will star in upcoming fashion documentary. Production began this week on a month long shoot. This exciting project called "Faking It" will follow Warning's three stars as they transform a young would-be "nobody" into a top male model. The show, which is one of Europe's top rating shows, will be broadcast worldwide on the BBC network and in the United States on the TLC network. Warning models was selected for this prestigious assignment over numerous other model agencies in an exhaustive search. The producers of the award winning documentary style show felt that Warning would be the best example of the inner workings of a top fashion agency. With Warning's profile in the industry growing by leaps and bounds, the exposure and press of this well publicized show set for early 2004 will set Warning on a clear path to becoming a household name.
Warning Model Management is a full service model and talent Agency. We develop and supply models both male and female for assignment for a variety of jobs, including but not limited to Fashion Editorials for nearly every magazine in the world, catalogues, newspaper advertisements, and advertising clients for use in magazines, posters, websites, billboards, bus sides, look books and many other outlets. We also provide models and actors for all forms of TV work as well as industrial videos and in some cases personal appearances and promotions.
Warning differs from all L.A. agencies by providing to the local industry in L.A. a level of talent previously only found in New York and Paris. We have achieved this by focusing on those clients that use L.A. as a location rather than a base and making available the talent they require here saving them (in many cases) the expense of having to fly those models in. We can do this through the advancement and application of an interactive web site that has made the old ways of transporting bulky portfolios by messenger obsolete. What took days before can be done in seconds from anywhere in the world.

That is because the after hour trade was at the correct price. I think it should be 900% actually.
.025-.0025= .0225>>>>>> .0225/.0025= 9*100 = 900%
Go to freerealtime.com They have the after hours trade as 900%. See it may be confusing, but if the stock is at .025, it cannot fall more than 100%, but it can rise by large percentages like 20,000%.
***If it is actually only a 760% gain that obviously the price didn't get back to the correct range, but was bid down even more.

I thought about qbid but company has been around forever and still in the cellar. IBZT just doesnt interest me since I think the Blackberry phone route is where the consumer is going to. And noone with a blackberry is gonna use that laser thing. I believe sales will decrease in pda's as more ppl buy the blackberry style phone. Then I looked at WNMI closely. First thing I like is the fairly low O/S. I like the fact that the Hilton girl signed. Not that she's the biggest thing out there but she is in the spotlight right now. PPl on this board talks about the Faking it show. I wouldnt watch it personally but many ppl will. I do think that will hepl the stock certainly. But I am waiting for The Simple Life 2 show on fox broadcasting. I am hoping she will talk about Warning and wear their clothing line on the show. This show is aired on a major network which means a whole buncha
ppl will watch this show. I am gonna hold for that show to come out this summer unless it has just a huge run befor that but I would get back in on a dip. Anyhow this is why I bought the stock, and more reasons to but I am tired of typing.Brandon

Unless warning forks over some money I doubt there will be any Warning clothing shown on the show. If she is shown wearing the clothing line however, that will be unbelievably awesome. Think about how many people would look into the clothing, and if it is affordable that will make it extremely popular...more clothing sales equals more revenue.

Actually you might be right. However, like Golfpimp says they might want some money & I for one think if they paid for the right to let Paris wear a Waning T-shirt as you said, it would be some of the best money they ever spent!

Oh No! You bought over two & a half cents a share! That's sad. When this thing hits .32 in the not too distant future you'll no doubt have to find a way to reconcile living with a mere 1,000% profits.
Oh it gets worse, much worse! A year from now you'll have to cope with no less than a dollar a share & maybe more. God forbid that you're forced into a higher tax bracket.
Chin up BroBro & face the harsh reality. You're in imediate danger of becomming a millionaire & having to soil you hands with large denominations of cash. I know it sounds pretty bad but someone has to do the dirty work. I'll remember you in my prayers!

What appears to have happened was before 10:06:57, the Market Makers put off filling sell orders as long as possible so they could keep selling their shares at premium prices(notice all the buying at .0295). Then at 10:06:57, they started filling like crazy, sending the stock tumbling.
Naked Shorting gone or not, this is still the MMs game.

Annual Report
Item 6. Management's Discussion and Analysis and Plan of of Operations.
General Plan of Operation
Short-term Objectives:
º Continue to expand revenue through organic growth of existing business lines; º Source and develop new talent in both male and female models. º Seek additional financing so as to provide capital to rapidly growing components of the organization, such as the Talent Division.
Long-term Objectives:
º Continue business expansion through acquisition, merger or joint venture with modeling agencies located in other geographic areas to provide economy of scale, incremental revenue and a larger talent pool; º Acquire complementary product lines to provide a broader service offering for customers, expand modeling careers and revenue sources.
We have no expected or planned sale of significant property or equipment.
In our opinion sufficient working capital will be available from internal operations and from outside sources during the next twelve months thereby enabling us to meet our obligations and commitments as they become payable for the following reasons: 1) We have signed a letter of intent for a credit facility, and we will be doing a registration statement for the underlying shares shortly, 2) We are in process of negotiating with a financial institution a credit line, and 3) $2,900,000 of our debt is with management. Additionally, historically, our operations have provided sufficient funds to met our obligations and commitments as they became payable.
-----
Results of Operations
Year Ended December 31, 2003 versus Year Ended December 31, 2002
Revenue for the year ended December 31, 2003 was $1,746,075 as compared to $2,208,535 for the same period in 2002, or a decrease of $462,460. The decrease is the result of a fall off of business in general throughout the year. WNMI has seen a pickup in its business towards the end of the fourth quarter.
Gross profit for the year ended December 31, 2003 was $659,682 as compared to $ 920,221 for the same period in 2002, or a decrease of $260,539. This decrease is a direct result of the decrease in revenue. Our gross profit percentage has remained stable. Operating expenses for the period ending December 31, 2003 were $1,735,620 as compared to $1,365,297 for the same period in 2002, or an increase of $370,323. The increase in operating expenses were mainly attributable to: 1) an increase in salaries and wages of $72,861 due to an increase in head count from 11 to 13; 2) rent of $31,645 due to move to larger office space; 3) general and administrative of $ 368,406; which was mainly due to an increase in bad debts of $26,733, Consulting Fees of $221,628, accounting related expenses of $78,765 and other general and administrative expenses of $41,280, offset by decreases in 1) business development cost of $18,020; 5) non-recurring expenses of $ 86,375 attributable to the closing of the reverse merger with the remaining difference of $1,806 consisting of other miscellaneous items. Management engaged the services of consultants to assist us in developing strategies to increase revenues and other business related matters.
Interest expense was $562,655 for the year ended December 31, 2003 as compared to $122,426 for the same period in 2002, or an increase of $440,239. The increase in interest expense in 2003 was primarily an increase in the use of our secured line of credit and an increase in interest on convertible debt.
Other income of $39,233 increased $7,313 over the same period the prior , which was primarily due to miscellaneous items.
Our net (loss) for the current year ended December 31, 2003 was $1,601,006 as compared to a net loss of $535,937 for the year ended December 31, 2002, which is an increase of $1,065,069 or 198%. This increase in loss is mainly attributable to the increase in interest expense and the decrease in business experienced as a result of the Iraq war and the overall softness of the advertising marketplace during 2003. Net change in cash used in operating activities in 2003 versus 2002 was $566,904. This change in cash from operating activities was principally due to an increase in net loss of $1,065,069, plus a decrease in payable and accrued expenses of $549,806 and model fees payable of $254,155, offset by increases in 1) bad debt expense of $41,123, 2) bond and warrant discount amortization of $241,919, 3) stock based compensation of $307,500, 4) accounts receivable of $291,112, 5) advances to models of $307,366, 6) accrued interest on convertible debt and secured line of $100,426 plus miscellaneous items of $12,680.
Net cash provided by (used in) investing activities was $3,762 and $ 15,743 for the years ended December 31, 2003 and 2002, respectively, reflecting a change of $11,981. This change is due to a decrease in purchases of property and equipment.
Net cash provided by financing activities was $361,814 and $807,914 for the years ended December 31, 2003 and 2002, respectively, reflecting a decrease of $446,100. This decrease was principally due to a decrease in proceeds from convertible notes of $450,000, net decrease of borrowings from a secured line of credit of $357,999, a decrease in payment on notes payable of $118,000, offset by an increase in advances from shareholders of $56,788, an increase in proceeds of notes payable $427,000 plus miscellaneous items of $3,889.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
The Company's revenues in 2003 have not been sufficient to cover the cost of revenues and operating expenses. WNMI has relied on debt and equity financial to meet its cash needs. For future requirements we will continue to seek funding through debt issuances and equity financing.
Therefore over the next twelve months management is of the opinion that sufficient working capital will be available from operations and financing activities to meet the Company's liabilities and commitments as they become payable.
------
Inflation
We believe our operations and financial condition have suffered no adverse material effect due to inflation. Subsequent event:
On February 4, 2004, Mr. Michael Rudolph resigned as Chief Executive Officer and as a member of the Board of Directors of WNMI.
Also on February 4, 2004, the Board of directors of Warning Model Management appointed Brian Bonar as a Director. Brian Bonar is currently serving as a director of Imaging Technologies Corporation ("IMTO") since August 1995 and became IMTO's Chairman of the Board in December 1999. From August 1992 through April 1994, Mr. Bonar served as the IMTO's Director of Technology Sales and from April 1994 through September 1994 as the IMTO's Vice President, Sales and Marketing. In September 1994, Mr. Bonar became the IMTO's Executive Vice President and, in July 1997, was appointed as the IMTO's President and Chief Operating Officer. In April 1998 Mr. Bonar assumed the post of CEO. From 1991 to 1992, Mr. Bonar was Vice President of Worldwide Sales and Marketing for Bezier Systems, Inc., a San Jose, California-based manufacturer and marketer of laser printers. From 1990 to 1991, he was Worldwide Sales Manager for Adaptec, Inc., a San Jose-based laser printer controller developer. From 1988 to 1990, Mr. Bonar was Vice President of Sales and Marketing for Rastek Corporation, a laser printer controller developed located in Huntsville, Alabama. From 1984 to 1988, Mr. Bonar was employed as Executive Director of Engineering at QMS, Inc., an Alabama-based developer and manufacturer of high-performance color and monochrome printing solutions. Prior to these positions, Mr. Bonar was employed by IBM, U.K. Ltd. for approximately 17 years.

Qbid? come on. Yes it is on a run, and yes I made money on it, but this company hasn't made a dime yet and has a history of distrust. Warning, WNMI, didn't have Miss Hilton, Miss Jones or Rodman last year and the stock price showed the stock value for last year. The stock didn't go up until they signed these stars and so it should. All penny stocks are risky but my money is with a company that is improving there position and can show it. And once these stars start bringing in the money for WNMI, the stock price will reflect on it. This stock has already had a 2000% price increase this year so another 1000% ($2.00) won't happen over night.

Sounds like it because thats not right. If there is only 160 million o/s as most seem to think and at current price it puts it at 3.3 Million not 1.4 Billion or are you talking about Qbid which way over valued right now.
I invested in a good company, so I know it is just going to take some patience and after awhile this will be at 10 cents then 20 cents and so forth. And all will be well.

BEVERLY HILLS, CA--(MARKET WIRE)--Apr 15, 2004 -- Press Update -- Warning Model Management (OTC BB:WNMI.OB - News). Malia Jones is currently in Hawaii shooting stories for two of Japan's hottest magazines. This follows on from the TV special she was featured in this week for one of Japans highest rated variety shows Tokonatsu Girl. The response from Japan after this show aired was amazing and will only help raise Malia's awareness when her product range is launched both here and in Japan later this year. Malia's Inside Sport Editorial will be syndicated to over 12 countries in coming months as well.
Dennis Rodman is booked to shoot with celebrity star photographer Max Vadukul. The story will be a cover, interview and 10 pages of fashion aiming at a whole new audience and possible customer base.
Paris Hilton is finishing Simple Life 2 and is shooting cover after cover in the few days available before flying off to Australia and the set of her new movie. "Paris is in such demand and IS literally the hottest property on the planet at this moment it is hard trying to fit bookings into her schedule. Many projects and developments cannot be announced as the magazines and clients have their own agendas and publicity machines and do not want to be pre-emptied," commented Steve Chamberlin (Warning's COO). He added, "Warnings slate of new projects are progressing rapidly but these are long term projects that take time. Publicity and brand awareness are paramount and a solid base needs to be built .The company has many exciting projects to announce and is sorting options for growth by both merger and acquisition."

This is a good price... it's just the effect of the quarterlies is all. We have a ton of news that happened right before the quarter ended that should help bring this thing back up.
I'm holdig at LEAST for 5 cents. I'm not yet comfortable doing this one a super long tem... because I don't really understand how the profits work. What are our percentages on someone like Paris or Dennis? As long as it's blurry to me... I'll hold short. I'd love for it to go up to 25cents or something, but there's no clear indicators. At least with QBID you had the target soft launch date.

This thing is going to have its ups and downs for sure. Just look at this week, a high of .029 Monday and a low of .0145 today, a lot of that came from panick selling no doubt.
It's unlikely this will be a bump free ride, but there is just so much versitility with and direction this company can take.
In the short term, "Faking It" is set to air next weekend on TLC. The show was top rated on BBC and England and the upcoming episode will feature Warning! models.

Unfortunatly, I think a good part of other people's QBID profits are going to come over to this one on Monday and drive the price up.
Warning! is set to be the featured company this coming weekend. I'm very pumped.
Getting boring here...
I still expect it to explode before the weekend (or perhaps Mon.), when their featured for a full hour on TLC's "Faking It" on Sun.
5 cents?
4 cents?
Hm?
e2
Right now is a tough time for this one because there are so many other interesting picks people are swinging like QBID, GZFX, GFYF, and IBIZ.
If I had more willpower I would just put my limit order at .10 and not look at my portfolio for a couple of months and come back very happy IMO.

lot of green in the world today hopefully this one will begin to ascend!
The Ameritrade streamer is terrible. If I were a paying customer of Ameritrade, I would be throwing a fit if I were you guys. We pay too much in commisions for shotty performance.
The CCI is in oversold territory (past 100) this is good. If you look at the CCI you will notice it aproaching support. Hit this support on the oscillator 3 other times. This is easy to see on this oscillaror.
We have the first 1/2 of a cup forming, also have solid support at the price level we are at now, not even a wick below our support. If we finish this cup and creat a handle
To creat the cup, we will have to turn up, looks like we could bounce off of the 32 day MA in the next day or 2. We have not used the 32 day yet so there is no history for this on this stock.
But, timing looks right.
As you can see on the MACD looks like we are beginning to turn upwards, not close to crossing but that can happen quickly!

Hope this is helpfull or interesting.

Movement, my guess is when we solidly hit the 32 MA now remember there is no history of this, could go to the 50 ma, we just don't know. I see it hitting 32 beginnning of next week.
Keith
There is only a matter of time for this one, but it still gets frustrating.

Check out everything that can potentially go right(taken from another board):
-WARNING! CLOTHING TRADEMARK APPLICATION
-PARIS HILTON CONTRACT ANNOUNCEMENTS
-MALIA JONES PRODUCT LAUNCH
-CELEBRITY PRODUCT BRANDING
-WARNING DEBUT ON FAKING IT
-WARNING MODELS IN THE LINGERIE BOWL

SO when this Fakin It TV show airs... do ya'll expect it to really push the price up much? Do we think we'll see 5 cents again anytime soon?

Enjoyed your insight & you're right on target with GZFX!
Good news with Warning is that ten cents will be a blur in your memory when we're blowing through $1!

Why new CEO Brian Bonar is GREAT for WARNING!...
OTC Journal
Trading Alert- Imaging Technologies (OTC BB: IMTO)
Imaging Technologies used to sell digital imaging solutions. It was one of the high flyers in the last bull market. The company's fortunes took a turn for the worse when they shipped a $4 million order to a Japanese company that filed for bankruptcy shortly after taking receipt of the merchandise. IMTO took the loss on the order and subsequently defaulted on some bank loans.
High flying IMTO immediately began spiraling towards the ground. Chairman Brian Bonar got control of the stick just prior to impact by creating an entirely new business. The plane is now climbing out slowly. Inside of one year this company could regain high altitude and just flip on the autopilot and cruise. According to Mr. Bonar, this turn around is being fueled by positive cash flow from the new business. I'm writing about it now because I'd rather give you the facts and let you make up your own mind while the stock is still trading under 2 cents.

Expecting another small pop at the end of the day for those deciding to get in at the last minute before Warning! is featured prime time this weekend and a big gap up on Monday.
porn tape is way better though!
It's conceivable. Anything is possible. This time around, with all the hands in on this one, there may be an even lower float than last time.
Only time will tell.
GOD I LOVE THE SOUND OF THAT.
We are going to need fresh PR with new material that shows promising growth. Shouldn't be too hard with everything this one seems to have going for it.

We all seem to be investing alot of hopes and dreams into this first episode. We need some of the girls to wear a Warning t-shirt or make some type of reference to WNMI. Without the tshirt I dont think that the show will allow them to promote WNMI directly. I mean, its now Warning's show.
I got in this stock on the high side, should've waited for it to come down a little but emotions got in the way so now I'm stuck here, sort of. I certainly believe this stock is worth more that the .02 its at now, but something has to start happening with the names they have sigend, above and beyond being in a clothing advertisement in some magazine in Holland.
Just my $.02, take it for what its worth.
VOG
Since it was aired already in Europe, there are reports that it is filmed mostly in Warning facilites, with a couple of mentions of warnings name and a couple of views of the warning signs.
I won't be watching-male welder/models just aren't my style!

Furthermore I'm not watching WNMI. It will take care of it's self & make me some windfall profits along the way.

Only 388 mil O/S. 1.9 cents per share.
this is an interesting test of one's "predicting skills" - what will happen tomorrow? i am also guessing a gap-open at around .023, but after that - anybody's guess. might run up to upper-.02's, or might get walked-down back to .02 by the MM's after a gap open. will be very interesting

You got that right. I'm on both of them. Could use some more GZFX cause I'm greeedy. Still buying that one on dips.
I may buy a little more of WNMI too for no other reason than they're giving this away at these prices.

wnmi is definitely PR-driven: they will need to keep coming up with big PR's in order for the pps to go up. i think they have a few more tricks up their sleeve, we'll see
I believe that I can swing my money elsewhere and still get back in time for WNMI to make its next big run.
I still believe that this one will hit .10 before the end of summer, just need to get UCAP to sell whoever's shares he's got.
The push to capitalize on Paris Hilton’s porn-meets-prime-time notoriety continues apace. Sources tell The Transom that Ms. Hilton’s management firm, Untitled Entertainment, is talking to Guess? about featuring Ms. Hilton in an upcoming ad campaign for its clothing. "We do have an offer, but I have no other details," said Ms. Hilton’s manager, Jason Moore, who declined to comment any further on the matter. A source within Guess? sounded flummoxed by the question, but replied: "Nothing’s been decided for the 2004 fall campaign" —which would be the next ad campaign on the company’s agenda—"and no one from advertising has been talking to Hilton." A call to Guess? co–chief executive Paul Marciano was not returned.
Although Ms. Hilton, star of Fox’s The Simple Life and a green-hued porn film you may have heard about, is a tad bonier than the curvaceous models (Shana Zadrick, Anna Nicole Smith, Claudia Schiffer and Laetitia Casta) who have graced past Guess? ad campaigns, her bad-girl image jibes with the clothing company’s porn-lite ad campaigns.
Meanwhile, though Ms. Hilton’s younger sister Nicky seems to be taking steps to distinguish herself from her sister—dyeing her hair a chaste brunette, for instance—she too seems to be interested in piggybacking on Paris’ highly elevated image. Nicky has signed with a different management firm, Handprint Entertainment, run by J. Lo’s former propaganda minister, Benny Medina. Nicky’s ambitions aren’t as apparent as her sister’s, but judging from a sit-down late last year between the sisters’ respective management firms, she may be flirting with becoming an on-air personality. According to one source close to the negotiations, Handprint was interested in putting together a one-hour special—which the Fox Network was apparently interested in airing—in which Nicky interviewed her sister Paris. The source said that the payday mentioned was approximately $1.6 million to be split by the sisters. But the source added that the idea was eventually vetoed when it ran into resistance from the Hiltons’ father, Rick Hilton, among other family members. Nicky Hilton’s manager, Paul Fisher, said he wouldn’t "deny or confirm" the story. Mr. Moore declined to comment, and a Fox publicist did not respond to our e-mail queries.

I expect Warning will release PR to this effect Thur/Fri.
~BB
WHERE THE REVENUE COMES FROM:
Models pay angencies commissions, at a standard rate of 20%. Celebs like Paris Hilton have bargaining power, and therefore I'm guessing that she worked out a deal for around a 10% commission. Additonally, the agency tacks on a 20% premium to the client. I don't think this is removed for celebs. Therefore, the math:
If Paris gets 5 million$ for her Guess Jeans contract, then 10% goes to the agency and another 20% goes to the agency, payable by the client. There's your revenue. Once the agency starts rockin, that's a nice revenue stream with little overhead- bookers don't make a lot of money. What's he paying- rent?? A few computers? Remember there are over a hundred models with any agency, so the bread-and-butter models' revenue pays most of the overhead. The celebs are a bonus.
CAN PARIS REP A WARNING CLOTHING LINE?
NO. It would be a direct conflict for a model to rep a clothing line for the agency. If Paris signs a contract with Estee Lauder, then she cannot work for Revlon. If she has signed with Guess, then she won't be working for Levi, but she can work for a non-competitor's fashion line, say Christian Dior (and I would like to see that.) To get around this, I'll bet Paris shows up in the magazines at nightclubs wearing a WARNING! tshirt. That's not advertising, it's media coverage. Completely different but promotion nonetheless.
WHEN THE CONTRACTS ARE ANNOUNCED:
I am surpirsed that the Guess contract was announced so quickly. I thought for sure we had a couple more months, but this made me think. This announcement (Guess) hasn't been made public yet. It's just industry knowledge. people won't realize it until the ads hit in August. I expect we will see industry announcements in June & July primarily, and launches to the public for paris, Dennis and other top names in late August, primarily September. The big *pop* should come late Sept/early Oct during fashion week, and I expect to see Paris at all the fashion week parties doing her new model thing, repping all her new contract brands, and singlehandedly making a mark for Warning Models in the PR world. And THAT is when I expect to see the chaching in the financials of Warning Models.
THE CLASS ACTION LAWSUIT BENEFITS:
There's a big, big class action lawsuit in the modeling industry right now, and Elite Models, one of the oldest in the biz, just filed for bankruptsy and went on the block to be sold. Agencies in NY, traditionally the foundation of the model world, are restructuring, preparing for litigation (if it's necessary I can go into detail on the suit, but it is based on price-fixing the 20% commission discussed above) and moving their booking offices to LA in case NY offices must close. Warning came into existence after the time frame of the class action suit, so while other agencies are drowning in legal mumbo-jumbo, Warning is free to take all of the clients and models, and they will, cuz their noses are clean. I see lots of business flowing over to LA.
WHAT THIS MEANS TO ME:
1- Steven has a proven track record of starting an agency from scratch, staffing it, generating PR, and finding models that can be groomed for success.
2- Steven is in with top investors and advisors in LA, and makes decisons based on growth of the business not on silly PR gimicks.
3- I believe this is the final step for Steven, and not only will he grow this agency but I believe he will branch out to new cities and markets once he has successfully launched Warning! LA.
4- Steven is actively involved in all facets of his business and understands the business model of an agency, and will work to strengthen his investor relations.
5- With such a solid history, Steven's reputation in the business will draw excellent models to his agency, thereby increasing his commissions and revenues and his visibility within the industry.
6- Given his connections, I expect strong growth of his brand in the direction of product branding (a clothing line), licensing and medias.
7- Having just finished my book, Model NY 2005 (a step-by-step guide to becoming a model in NY in every bookstore in Sept.) I noticed a new trend in model agencies. Due to a glutton of models, smart agencies are scaling back to rep just a small pool of top talent, and representing them for MULTI-MEDIA outlets, not just print outlets. For instance, in the old days Paris would have a tv agent, a print agent, a PR agent, etc. Instead, she gets a full-service agency that reps all facets of her career, in house PR, and a legal team to negotiate her contracts and endorsements. So, about that 20% commission above? The revenue for the agency has enormous potential given the umbrella they hold for their talent.
8- INVEST FOR THE LONG HAUL. No doubt at all that this brand grows a hundred fold, and this is just the beginning. I've put my money in. And again, the above is strictly my opinions based on my experience, so take it for what it's worth and do your own DD.
GLTA.

Have a green feeling about Mon.
Today UCAP is matching NITE and VIEW ASK prices, prior to this he would usually go .001 lower which would drive the price down.
Around 11:00 UCAP actually jumped to the top of the BID!!! This was the first time I've seen him do that in 2 weeks.
AHHHH!

The new Warning website is up, and it is looking fabulous. Rather than spend tons of money on developing their own database system, I see that Warning has partnered with 11x14.com for their portfolio management system. Smart- and saves them a lot of money. It's smart moves like that that will keep their overhead low and makes them a good investment.
I also saw this old PR (they have a PR section on the website now) http://biz.yahoo.com/iw/040325/064924.html for the first time, and realized that Warning is now a photography rep as well as a model rep. That ought to generate another million plus in revenues. Additionally, my opinion is that Warning is positioning themselves to be a full service production company, meaning they will supply the photographer, models, hair, makeup and stylist for a photo shoot. Keeping production all in one place is a huge lure for clients. Photographers repped by the agency are more likely to hire models with the same agency, so I see this agency generating higher revenues than a typical model agency.
Further, with the photography department repping talent that is international (the list of photogs in the PR is one of int'l talent), jobs done overseas can be billed through the LA office, which was not a common practice in the past. More $$ for Warning.
Last thing- There's 'word' in the business that Paris is in the midst of negotiating a contract with a huge beauty company, which would contract her to be a spokesperson for their products, not just modeling for them but also doing direct marketing appearances. If it comes through, it would be a very generous contract. I'll keep my ears open- they're talking about a debut in the Fall if negotiations succeed.
By the way, before we get too "Paris" centered, I took a look at all the talent showcased on the new Warning Models website (I was granted access.) Other big names they rep are Janine Green (the black girl with the little 'fro in the Loreal ads), Kylie Bax, Malia Jones (pro surfer turned model), and Tatjana Patitz. They also have great men. Atesh does the Armani campaign, James Penfold does Armani cologne, Burberry & DKNY, Frank Arends (this guy even owns/owned his own photo rep agency but is repped by Warning for his modeling career), Kevin Kazakoff (Chanel), Rory Marshall (Lancome)and Werner... the list goes on, but my point is that while these models don't generate PR for the agency, they do generate 5 & 6-figure contracts.

Much better than entertainment! Even without specifics your messages are very enlightening. & yes we can both talk about QBID now & then. I'm in the hopes that Warning has that kind of potential. If they put out a line of clothing that would appeal to even a larger targeted consummer sector than QTV.
The only thing I'm 100% sure of is that I have the dicipline to stay with WNMI & accumulate while they become a profitable company.

To restate it: There is a class action lawsuit against every top agency in NYC, so many agencies are moving their talent to LA offices in preparations for bankrupcy filings in NY. Elite has already filed for bankrupcy and put their agency up for sale. IMG, the richest of all agencies, settled (but that's federal only).
Today's news:
May 1, 2004 -- JOHN Casablancas is leading the fight to save the modeling industry from a class-action suit. While IMG caved and settled, agreeing to pay up to $11 million to models who claim they lost money because of collusion between agencies, Casablancas vows to fight to the end. His lawyer, Ray Dowd, told PAGE SIX: "The models have to show they were damaged, but the models made more under John Casablancas than ever before. He invented the supermodel." The entire case, brought by David Boies - the lawyer who unsuccessfully represented Al Gore in his Florida ballot battle four years ago - hinges on a state law which says employment agencies may only charge a 10 percent commission. Dowd asserts the Consumer Affairs Department ruled in the '70s that model agencies are exempt. "Model agencies were ruled to be managers," he says. "They don't just find employment, they also find housing, buy plane tickets, fix boyfriend problems . . . It's a totally frivolous case." Casablancas, who is married to a Brazilian and also spends parts of the year in Europe, lives in Florida, and "has specifically instructed me not to raise any jurisdictional issues or make any attempt to avoid jurisdiction," Dowd said.

I read your last post about all the talant moving to LA. I know that's where Warning is based but how does that help the old line agencies who are caught up in the suit? Do you think it's possible some of those models will jump ship & join us?
More & more I'm thinking this investment will be better than I previously thought!
Thanks for any insight!

Thanks for the correction & hanging in there to get me that info! Found the sight! Now I have to register before I can even look for that post.

Interesting also- at the White House Correspondence Dinner last night a couple of Bush's appointees to his administration were questioning me about the lawsuit. Turns out the feds are taking this far more seriously than I was aware of, so as the ball rolls it could grow bigger.
To reinterate- Warning is one of the few top level agencies that will NOT in any way be involved with the lawsuit. Another plus for our investment.

Please feel free to visit the site, it's a collection of WNMI DD links, and if you know of any other links that might be appropriate, please email me. I don't list conjecture or speculation (ie anything that could be construed as pumping), just info that potential investors would find helpful.
However, this statement "including the majority of Victoria's Secret models" is very incorrect. DNA Model Mgmt in NYC reps almost all of the Victoria's Secret and Sportwear Illustrated models. Where did you get that info?

Another reason I think Warning is so ahead of the game- going public before any other agency.
And what I touched on earlier is that Steven Chamberlin's best friend is an investment guru. Never seen anyone like him. Do a search for Warning, Famous Fixins (they merged with FF to become a public company) and George Furla. It appears his friend George loaned out some money to get them off the ground, merged with them from a company he previously held publicly, and off they went.
Here are a few links I found as background. Tryng to get the big financial picture, as it always helps as a future indicator.

And I just want to point out, I am in no way pumping this stock. I simply feel I have a lot of background knowledge that is helpful, and I didn't invest in WNMI until late in the game, and only after doing tons of DD. I always try to state when I'm giving my opinion and when I am stating fact.
Fact is, my opinion is that Warning has broken new ground here ;-)

And, no offense at all, that's exactly what I want, good feedback! Thanks! I just got word that Steve Chamberlin spoke with one of the regulars on another board and that he had indicated VS/Warning involvement, but until all that is clarified, I'm pulling the reference from the site.
Yes, I absolutely agree, knowing Warning is driven by a business-minded, seasoned leader in the industry we have only up to go!
The thought of you hyping for Warning did flicker upon me, however, I am convinced you are an investor as the rest of us are. As well, I wouldn't think a seasoned businessman like Chamberlin would jeprodize such a good thing.
For a stock to do well, you need buzz, we got it. You need news updates, we got it, you need a business-minded company leader, we got it. You need a proven business machine, we got it, you need profit and it's coming soon to a browser near you!
I'm thinking to solicit Warning a production of a silver/gold promotions pendant using their logo? From the business mind of an entrepreneurial model, do you think it would be worn if it was designed in good taste? Any thoughts?

In regards to Warning's benefit from this, they will always receive commission from any work Paris does. For example, let's call this a 5 million dollar contract for Paris. Warning (this is really approximated, as models typically pay a 20% commission to their agents) would likely receive 10% from Paris and add 20% to the billing, giving them 30% of the 5 mil contract.
figures aside, Paris working will always mean revenue for Warning.

Reinforcing that guess is a recent parlux/Guess licensing agreement signed Nov 5, 2003. http://www.parlux.com/News/News_11_05_03.htm So, this is simply an extension of the contract she signed last week to rep Guess Jeanswear.In regards to Warning's benefit from this, they will always receive commission from any work Paris does.

BB, are you saying that Paris signed on with Guess last week, and that WNMI is getting a cut of that deal? I haven't been able to verify that anywhere yet, please share a link if that is the case (sorry if I missed an earlier post from you). That would be excellent, and I'd think we'd see some PR about that in the immediate future if that were the case.

You know. In the building that Warning's in... there are numerous other businesses. I hopped on the elevator going to lunch and i see this beautiful woman. Blonde... not a runway model type. But a nice round solid firm body. She gave me a little smile.... and i continued drooling. Well later in the day, I found out she was with Ecstacy Airlines. Wow... It's this airline company that flies you around. The stewardess are dressed in lingerie. Yikes. I saw some pics.. Wow. Im sure there is a pic of her somewhere online. I saw several of pics of her on brochures and other items in LA. Just a very nice memory i had to share. mach
That is a very difficult question to respond to acurately. First we have to define most, I do not intend to try. I think the best way to respond is that we have many models who model for Victoria's Secret.
Brian Bonar
So, I'm going to reinsert the "many" verbage and leave it at that, until I get further clarificaiton on an exact number, etc. The only one I know of offhand is Alessandro Ambrosio, if anyone knows any details of other VS models that work for Warning, please email me.

WNMI PR TO BE RE-RELEASED ON ALL MAJOR NEWS OUTLETS TODAY
The following PR did not have the Symbol and was not received by the market as of now. It will be released this afternoon as per Warning. Just a heads up!
Warning! Enters Agreement to Co-Produce Premier Celebrity Event -- Bullrun 2004
LOS ANGELES, CA -- (MARKET WIRE) -- 05/05/2004 -- Warning Model Management Inc. is excited to announce that it has entered an agreement with Bullrun Ltd. to assist in the production of Bullrun 2004, an event that is expected to be the epitome of all luxury motor rallies. David Green, President of Bullrun Ltd. states, "We are excited to have the privilege of working with the Warning management team and celebrity models. Their status in the fashion industry will alone insure that this event is recognized as the premier celebrity event of 2004."
On June 4th, 2004 the world's top models, celebrities and 200 luxury super cars will be under starters orders in LA, ready to embark on an epic eight-day 3000 mile rolling party across the southern United States.
Bullrun brings together stars of life, sport and screen for an unforgettable adventure, where, evidently, the only obligatory goals are to party, drive and enjoy. Fueled by an impressive schedule of private events at the finest hotels in the most exciting cities in America, Bullrunners make their way from one checkpoint to the next, learning their destinations daily. Designed to impress even the headiest of hedonists, Bullrun promises to leave those who feel they've already done everything glam, fast and furious, pleasantly surprised.
This year's rally scheduled for June 4th to 11th will take us on an unforgettable journey -- a moveable feast of super cars, superstars and only the finest hotels and bars. Beginning in Los Angeles, to Las Vegas, Phoenix, Santa Fe, Dallas, New Orleans, Tampa and finally rocking to a close in celebration capital of America, Miami.
Bullrun will also be the first rally to be seen through the eyes of the international media, providing an exclusive insight to all the antics one would expect on an A-class 8 day party. Media from around the globe including MTV, BBC, Robb Report, GQ and Conde Naste Traveler are confirmed and with the list of celebrities entered we are confident that Access Hollywood, E, EXtra, Entertainment Tonight and VH1 will provide coverage. Steve Chamberlin (Warning COO) states, "This annual production will not only help generate substantial revenue for Warning, but just as important is getting the Warning name and logo out to mass exposure which is crucial for future plans. We expect the Warning Label to be prominently displayed throughout the event by many popular models, celebrities and on all luxury vehicles. More exciting developments including sponsorships will be announced soon."

"first we have to define most"?
"first we have to define what the meaning of the word is, is" comes to mind, and as we all know, THAT MAN was covering (and did not have sex with THAT WOMAN), so what do you think was meant here?
They have one you can name, and she isn't a "Gisele". Working for VS could mean little informal runway shows, sales fliers.. it could mean a lot the way he stated it. These are not big revenue sources.
Also, agencies "have" a lot of girls. I myself have agencies in Miami, LA, Seattle, Hamburg Germany, Munich Germany, Paris, Milan, Barcelona.. The big picture is that if I work in NYC where I am based those agencies don't make money. If I was EXCLUSIVE with them they make money, and Paris is EXCLUSIVE with Warning, therefore anything she does makes them money.
I just want to clarify the difference, because I am interested in Warning revenue that's solid, not some chick who makes $1500 per day as a flash in the pan for a victoria's secret clearance sale. I wanna see the REAL revenue, even if it's at the $3000/day level, cuz once a model gets there, she's pretty much a lifer for that caliber of client. Any model with a decent agency can get a few $1500/day gigs, but thats just a grand for the agency.
I think that anyone who has done their DD will be turned off by the misinformation, but that's just me. I like facts, not conjecture and word plays.

I like this company because of real revenues even though the last reporting was not a good thing.
I like the recent signings and think they should greatly improve the revenue.
I like your write ups about the management and the industry.
Now the question to me is what the heck are they worth?
The market at the moment is saying about .0175.
Is this real low? Real high?
Our does the market not have a clue?
My guess is the later. But time will tell.
The Guess contract was mentioned in numberous places, but ultimately reported by the World Entertainment News Network which can't be viewed online. However, it is re-reported at IMDb.com, a very reliable source for info on models and actors.Says March 17, but the news didn't hit the street here til last week. http://www.imdb.com/news/wenn/2004-03-17#celeb6
Additionally, and this is completely speculative rumor, it has been mentioned in the gossip columns and around the biz that paris is working on a Candies ad, for whihc she would be paid 1million+. Keeping ears open, but again, this is what she got the agency for. To make her deals, get her contracts,etc. They're just doing what they've been hired to do, and since estimates are around 25 mil per year as Paris's before-model income, I assume they plan to try to at least double it now that she's officially "working".

Betting babe,
I'm not doubting that she signed with Guess, I know that that's a fact. I was asking what your source was on the Guess deal having been signed AFTER Paris joined Warning a month ago. Because I wouldn't think Warning would be getting any of the moolah if the Guess deal was signed first, before she joing Warning (and I first heard about the Guess deal back in February), am I right? Please correct me, since you know more about the modeling biz than probably any of us do.
Also...your nice little speech about the Victoria's Secret blurb has convinced me to move the reference to Alessandro Ambrosio's paragraph, instead of up at the top of the page, stating that she is one of the WNMI models working with VS. I don't think that implies too much, just that there are also some other models involved as well. Thanks for the opinions, and if you ever do find out which WNMI models are working with VS, please share the info.
LOS ANGELES, CA, May. 05, 2004 (MARKET WIRE via COMTEX) -- In the news release, " Warning! Enters Agreement to Co-Produce Premier Celebrity Event -- Bullrun 2004" issued earlier today by Warning Model Management Inc., we are advised by the company that the ticker symbol (OTC BB: WNMI) was inadvertently omitted from the first paragraph by the company. The corrected release is as follows.
Warning! Enters Agreement to Co-Produce Premier Celebrity Event -- Bullrun 2004

Bullrun brings together stars of life, sport and screen for an unforgettable adventure, where, evidently, the only obligatory goals are to party, drive and enjoy. Fueled by an impressive schedule of private events at the finest hotels in the most exciting cities in America, Bullrunners make their way from one checkpoint to the next, learning their destinations daily. Designed to impress even the headiest of hedonists, Bullrun promises to leave those who feel they've already done everything glam, fast and furious, pleasantly surprised.
This year's rally scheduled for June 4th to 11th will take us on an unforgettable journey -- a moveable feast of super cars, superstars and only the finest hotels and bars. Beginning in Los Angeles, to Las Vegas, Phoenix, Santa Fe, Dallas, New Orleans, Tampa and finally rocking to a close in celebration capital of America, Miami.
Bullrun will also be the first rally to be seen through the eyes of the international media, providing an exclusive insight to all the antics one would expect on an A-class 8 day party. Media from around the globe including MTV, BBC, Robb Report, GQ and Conde Naste Traveler are confirmed and with the list of celebrities entered we are confident that Access Hollywood, E, EXtra, Entertainment Tonight and VH1 will provide coverage. Steve Chamberlin (Warning COO) states, "This annual production will not only help generate substantial revenue for Warning, but just as important is getting the Warning name and logo out to mass exposure which is crucial for future plans. We expect the Warning Label to be prominently displayed throughout the event by many popular models, celebrities and on all luxury vehicles. More exciting developments including sponsorships will be announced soon."

1- I heard rumor earlier in the year about the Guess deal, but nothing more. The first press came out in March. Still means nothing to me until the film is shot.
About 10 days ago, the shoot for the new Guess campaign was completed, shot by Ellen von Unwerth. Until it goes to press the client (Guess), while perhaps guaranteeing the contract, doesn't need to pay. That could take up to 6 months.
2- Why on earth would an agency sign a model that already has prior committments and is not marketable? Wouldn't make sense. We don't know the actual date Paris was signed, do we? We only know what date they allowed us to know she was signed. Smart biz says they approached her for representation, put their money where their mouths were, solidified the deal and got her endorsements immediately.
3- Given the length of the contract, no model agency would take on a new model who would be tied up, unavailable to work for a jeans company, for a year or more.
So I believe you have a viable point, but common sense talls me Warning, not a desperate agency, made a pretty good business deal for themselves.

Answering Longfellow:
I'm not doubting that she signed with Guess, I know that that's a fact. I was asking what your source was on the Guess deal having been signed AFTER Paris joined Warning a month ago. Because I wouldn't think Warning would be getting any of the moolah if the Guess deal was signed first, before she joing Warning (and I first heard about the Guess deal back in February), am I right? Please correct me, since you know more about the modeling biz than probably any of us do.
Thanks for that reply, I suppose we'll have to wait for a future financial sheet to know for sure. It still seems to me that a gig of that size and notoriety would warrant a PR, or at least a mention in an upcoming PR. Not that I'm hoping for it, I prefer to see fewer PR's--less noise, more news. Too much fluff can kill momentum. Thanks again.
I expect to see PR pertaining to the Warning business dealings (who they've signed, revenues, expansions) - not sure I would trust them as a business as much if they felt the need to ride their clients' coat tails.

First, I believe WNMI has a better shot at becoming a highly successful company than most companies on the OTC and that, if I am right about that, an eventual market cap of hundreds of millions will more than adequately support a vastly higher PPS even with a higher share count. But anyone who believes this company can be a major hit will have already digested the powerful synergies this company is pursuing.
WNMI's business plan clearly intends to leverage a savvy take on our contemporary popular culture's obsession with celebrity and material trappings with a media driven organization vertically integrating brand building with agency representation, media packaging, couture and product development in ways few companies have done to date. The Warning! brand name is a simple and unbelievably brilliant logo and it could become a very, very valuable asset in and of itself just for its licensing possibilities alone. Warning! is a potential conglomerate with great earnings power in the making. And it is already a very active enterprise, not a "potentially" real OTC company (i.e., see Malia Jones Coke ad placement, Faking It, Gumball Rally, etc.). Paris will just add more juice, but she is not even the make or break factor in this company's future at all.
Second, and the primary point of this message, is that I am absolutely convinced the trading behavior of WNMI's stock has everything to do with WNMI being oversold by MMs selling without actual inventory on hand and they have done so at depressed price levels for reasons I'll explain.
Different brokerages reflect different permutations of their streamer data display. Ameritrade, in particular is showing the actual block sizes going through, but the buys are often registered in the Quote Trend as sales in Red, not buys in Green. With Ameritrade being as influential broker in the penny stock market as it is, this alone has a disproportionately large effect on the perceptions of the retail trading community.
These inaccuracies in WNMI's case has been going on for at least the past six weeks I have been actively watching it trade. Anyone who dismisses the idea of MM manipulation is obviously not watching the scenario that has been unfolding with WNMI. No, it is NOT a myth, so don't kid yourself if you want to call it paranoid conjecture. It most certainly is not. There have been numerous days where buys heavily outweighed sells and it often has not shown up that way. There are numerous ways to dissect how MMs effect the appearance of trading activity, but I will stick to the central premise of their overselling WNMI.
The inconguities in the buy/sell reporting also explains in part the 30-40M volume days that has often been racked up with WNMI. You can rightly assume part of this is an aspect of some MMs working together to create churn by trading shares (reflected in matching block sizes among other things). But it is also that they have been overselling shares they do not have, also artificially boosting the volume much of the time in the process.
Today, the volume was MUCH LOWER than previously, precisely when it SHOULD HAVE BEEN HIGHER. Today's news was very significant in terms of Warning!'s pending public awareness campaign and brand building efforts. Part of my knowledge is based on my observations after already holding a large position in WNMI for some time. Plus, I received further confirmation today when I found the price extremely attractive after the news was released and decided to add more.
During the afternoon I added another 1.5M shares to my position in WNMI. The MMs would pause for minutes at a time, then fill my multiple orders (only one partial fill the whole time) sold to me in many 100K+ share blocks. I first added at 0.0175, then 0.0166, then 0.0165. We're talking about a dozen buys sizeable enough to witness the handling of the transactions as they were effected.
The block sizes were accurately accounted for, but it was interesting to see during the periods in which I kept applying considerable buying pressure, Ameritrade's Quote Trend showed only a solid column of Red Sells. This has often been the case. You can rest assured that for at least 6 weeks, but likely longer, the MMs have often skewed actual retail buys to appear as sells. That is not even taking account their ability to trade between each other to create the appearance of selling pressure which also happens. The brief moments the price would drop to the bid (for instance, I'd buy at the Ask of 0.0165, then it would go back to the Bid price of 0.0155 or 0.016), it would then snap back to the Ask repeatedly. It was not just me buying. There were others.
Today's buying pressure ultimately prevented the MMs from dropping the price as easily as they have done with their recent shakeouts and I think there was very little consistent or significant retail selling of big blocks going on at the Bid today at all. I know for a FACT that there are many others besides myself holding big positions who are NOT selling. And just watching the trading absolutely confirms there has often been massive accumulation going on for more than a month.
Go find one of my few posts on this board as Investorgation and you will see that I identified this massive accumulation and blocks on the Ask by the MMs going on many weeks ago. The only thing I underestimated was the tenacity of the MMs and the severity of the situation. That it has persisted for another month just convinces me the MMs responsible for shorting this stock have dug themselves into a very serious hole:
http://ragingbull.lycos.com/mboard/boards.cgi?board=WNMI&read=9835
http://ragingbull.lycos.com/mboard/boards.cgi?board=WNMI&read=10097
The volume would have been MUCH higher today if they had uncorked it and let run the rally obviously trying to happen. If they had, traders and investors seeing WNMI start to move and feeling the train was leaving the station would have started piling into WNMI in increasing numbers. Everyone knows it happens that way all the time. You would seen even greater buying pressure start to kick in. But the MMs kept it down as much as possible, only having to sell to those like myself who know what they are up to & who know this train WILL leave the station & that this IS the price to keep buying at.
I am convinced the MMs are definitely selling shares they do not have. I've been increasingly aware of this discrepancy in the trading of WNMI for these past 6 weeks I've watched this stock. I have marvelled at how often WNMI was blocked at the Ask to squelch a rally. This MM control has only infrequently and briefly been breached due to extra strong investor buying pressure since the run out of the sub-penny range. But then they have shaked it back down before a larger gain could be sustained and higher base prices established. I've seen it happening here over and over again. That leads to the questions:
If the MMs are selling without inventory, then why would they not do it at even higher prices?
In other words, if the buying pressure was so clearly there today and on other days, why would the MMs not take advantage of selling at even higher prices and let the price go up?
The answer is that the MMs may not have originally believed or known that WNMI was going to be as big a deal as I am almost certainly think it is going to be. Their hedge now is to at least cap the price as they have been doing, currently at below 2 cents, in the hopes WNMI will eventually lose gas on their shake outs and then go down back to earlier levels. Then they assume they can buy back shares from investors to cover at a lower price than the MM sold shares for and balance their books at a profit or at least at a minimial loss by comparison to what they could lose if they let WNMI run higher from the current price.
Since they almost certainly started doling out shares they didn't have during the big breakout from below a penny, it is my conviction they are already under water for many of those uncovered shares at a current loss on a percentage basis of as much as 100% or more. This explains their rabidness and constant attempts to block the stock. They most definitely did everything they could the past two weeks to try and drop WNMI below a penny again and have repeatedly failed.
They may actually be arrogant enough to believe they can force WNMI back to its prior sub-penny prices, BUT THEY WON'T. Mostly, I think they are damned worried and about to get desperate if they are not already. While they may have miscalculated about the potential value of this stock earlier, now they most likely really do know what WNMI can become: a stock with monstrous rallies. So they are going to do their best to hold it back as long as they can, trying to beat it back to cover their positions.
I think they are about to get seriously tripped up by their earlier misapprehension of WNMI's future valuation. The runs we should have had already will be juiced now by what could become a very serious short squeeze situation. When people mention short squeezes some think it is fantasy. Forget about it. It can definitely happen.
If the MMs are now totally hip to WNMI's potential, and I think they definitely are, there is probably going to be one classic day where recurring waves of buying pressure overwhelms them and they will break ranks (because some of them have worked together). Then some MMs will simply make the market and buy and sell real shares while the short MMs will start to scramble. Then the short MMs will have to participate in the market and pay the going rate, just like the rest of us during such a rally.
Our friend UCAP could lose millions of dollars if those shares they've been selling were not supplied by S-8 shareholders. I now believe much or most of their sells to investors were NOT from actual inventory. As a MM, UCAP really appears they may be a very reckless opportunist that will see their nonchalance backfire on them. The irony is that they may be in such a big pickle that they are sitting on the Ask selling even more shares they don't have in the hopes their continual efforts to block the share price from rising will eventually exhaust buyer demand and investors will throw in the towel in disgust.
Why, you may ask, would UCAP keep selling shares they don't have if they are already potentially so deep in the hole? Well, I think I just explained it. They're probably quite desperate now and are taking a big gamble they can tough it out long enough to reverse investor sentiment and tank the stock. Not a good bet when you're dealing with a company on the move like Warning! and I think, if they are continuing to short WNMI, it is not going to work out well for them at all.
Also, I've seen UCAP briefly switch to the Bid, then hop back on the Ask. Why? They may actually be buying some shares to fuel their above-described misguided effort to tank the stock. If they feel they are on the edge, they may be willing to actually pay for a few shares as part of their campaign to tank the stock to cover at lower prices. So they buy them in order to bring them back to the Ask to sell.
Plus, doing so briefly gives UCAP the appearance of actually performing some kind of legitimate market making function and not appear as only a virtual share selling machine. So if they sometimes buy some shares too, they don't have to only sell virtual shares that dig them deeper into the hole during their desperate selling campaign. And the further irony is they may be buying from other MMs to do so, which would be just one more artificial buy-sell transaction adding to the volume.
I thought WNMI could be a blockbuster stock already. Now I think we may see much higher prices earlier than I was prepared for. With the Gumball Rally soon to provide MASSIVE exposure of the Warning! brand name on MTV, ET, and in the print media, this stock only has 5 weeks max before this showdown between the delinquent MMs and the investing public about to overwhelm them with buying surges too big to hold back. But this stock has been itching to break for so long now that I don't think it will be that long.
Besides, it is totally reasonable to expect WNMI will have OTHER news to report as well, besides updates on the rally before the race kicks off in early June. WNMI is going to have some very big runs. If you think you know penny stocks and don't already realize WNMI is going to run, get with the program. Bashing this stock at these prices is for jokers only. Now I think there will be a big short squeeze adding fuel to the fires that have been burning and will burn harder because Warning! is going to be a hot company with a growing investor following.
There is one final point to consider. With MMs selling shares they don't have, that means shareholders hold MORE shares than the actual OS. That, for one, has done a great deal to depress the share price asides from the MMs who block the rallies. It should be at 0.05-0.10 by now, at least. But that should not alarm anyone. The ultimate point of this discourse, and the beauty of how the resolution will tie this all together, is that when the MMs are forced to buy back shares during the impending short squeeze:
1. They will become the most aggressive buyers of all. Once the jig is up and they have no choice but to start paying higher prices in fears it will become much more expensive very quickly, they will pile in or risk losing their shirts even more if the wait to buy. There is a tipping point in this scenario where the MMs simply know the tide has turned and they lost their battle. By waiting and hoping it will retrace back to prior levels, they risk incurring what I now expect would be millions of dollars more in losses if they wait any longer to buy back shares. With a stock of this potential magnitude, they will not be able to hide from the SEC if they don't cover their naked short positions. The short MMs will have NO CHOICE but to pay up. That's why you should not misinterpret the trading data and realize this is coming and not sell your shares too cavalierly.
2. The MMs will then have to retire those shares. I think it is likely they have oversold their non-existent shares in the hundreds of millions. I am not randomly speculating. There have been vastly more buys than sells. You could document it for the SEC if you want to, but just think about it. With tens of millions of shares routinely traded daily and multiples of the float traded over the past 2 months plus obvious long positions being taken during accumulation, there should be a minimum of 100 million shares that have been sold short. I think it is more.
3. Then, the beauty part, your shares will be able to find a truer valuation reflective of actual market forces and actual supply & demand. The stock will trade more accurately with the ACTUAL FLOAT in circulation. That means the share price will support much higher base prices when it goes up and it will.
4. And there will be more than enough traders who will sell out to allow the MMs to cover. And the longs will then have their holding's value restored in relation to the true share count. This is why you don't have to worry now about all of us holding more than the actual OS. It is to your advantage to hold until the squeeze causes the share count to be reconciled.
5. Once that happens, the MMs will not be so ready to mess with WNMI stock. Once burned, twice shy. They'll take their shorting shenanigans to another penny stock they think they can toy with. WNMI will become too valuable for them to take it lightly again. They didn't realize that when it was a sub-penny, but they do now. And they are going to get burned. If the losses are serious enough, it can actually damage a smaller MMs business. If they are vain enough to ever attempt to again oversell shares of WNMI they don't have, it will be at considerably higher prices and thus much more modest in terms of shares overextended on their books.
6. Finally, this reconciliation of shares and restoration of the actual float size will add to investor confidence that the stock can actually trade better. Some may have held back from purchasing shares recently since they were worried the stock was incapable of going higher. Well, I just explained why it has not gone up more and now you know that when it does it will likely go up even more during a big breakout. Blue skies will become very possible both because Warning! looks like a hot property and because the short squeeze will drive the rally harder. But, most importantly, as a stock, once the shackles of the shorting MMs are removed and the artificial dilution is resolved as a result, then it will simply be a healthier stock that trades more accurately in relationship to actual market demand.
I'll keep adding shares, especially if the MMs keep doing me the favor of putting a short lived chokehold on this firecracker. This could be one of the biggest gainers of the year, so don't underestimate what you've got here. This message is my contribution to WNMI shareholders so those who feel discouraged realize there is an explanation for the current depressed price and that their time will come. WNMI stock could become very valuable. Patient and strong hands will be the big winners here.
Good Luck,
IvG

Ok, see the name George Furla? It's because of his investment & transfer of ownership that WNMI exists. Steven's best friend...
Know where else that name recently appeared?
FMLY. Yup, DeNiro's new film producer.
So for those of you who aren't putting 2 & 2 together, I am willing to place money on this wager:
FMLY produces a film in the near future starring Paris Hilton in her first major role.
I can just feel it. And I will venture a guess that there will be much involvement of Warning models in Family Room Entertainment films. Telling you- best friends. Great business partners. They know what they are doing.
It's a slow time for the modeling industry as well. You think it's bad for investors? Try being a model who works every day for a few months then sits around for a few months waiting for their work to come out.
Most of the work/campaigns/big jobs for Fall 2004 are in production and will shoot soon or have been shot.
In other words, sit tight cuz if you sell now you will miss al the revenue generated when the model biz launches all the new stuff Sept 2004.
Until then, there will be some nice things going on, but twice a year- Apring & Fall- during the collecitons is when the agencies pull out their big guns with the PR.
Yes, now is the time to look at FMLY. I see a close association for these two companies in the future.
Just my opinion. GLTA!!
Yay, rah rah, go Warning!

As to the earlier request for opinions on the near term for WNMI, here's my take. I think we'll see a modest dip after the 10Q, as I don't anticipate it to be anything spectacular (no Paris or Malia numbers in there yet, though the lingerie bowl should be).
Within a week or two (if not sooner) I am guessing we'll see a spike in the pps and renewed hype surrounding a new Paris Hilton news release, since Steve Chamberlain will be getting back on Tuesday from a visit to see her in Australia (he met with her today).
That's as far on a limb as I'm comfortable prognosticating. And of course this is all just my 1/50.

Pop hunk JC Chazez predicts sexy hotel heiress Paris Hilton is destined for a glittering career in music - after being stunned by her rock chick vocals.
The former 'N Sync singer offered his opinions on Paris's solo recordings after she invited him to swap ideas about the upcoming release, which is being produced by Rob Boldt - the man behind tracks on JC's solo debut Schizophrenic.
The Girlfriend singer says "I'm not recording with Paris but I've talked to her about ideas for her record. Her first song's gonna surprise a lot of people - let's just say she's a rock 'n' roll girl!"
Previous reports have compared Hilton's voice to Beyonce Knowles and Jessica Simpson, but Chasez says the blonde beauty has her own unique style.
He adds, "I'm proud of her for being brave enough to do it, because she knows she's going to stand under a microscope and everybody's going to scrutinize the hell out of her."

I don't know of any rational basis for the current pps, so I'd say it's a steal right now. Market cap of $4.5 million, for a company like this? That's outrageously low, when you factor in just the rev's we already know about, much less future potential and whatnot. I'd be surprised if we're sub-penny for very long, and if we are, I'll be accumulating a lot of shares, unless there's some sort of massive dilution or an asteroid wipes out California.
I'm posting updated info on the Federal class action lawsuit against modeling agencies. This is the Federal suit only, as the NY State suit is not expected to go to court until end 2004/beginning 2005.
I am posting this info because we are bound to see more about the case in the news, and it is important to understand that Warning is NOT an agency mentioned in the case.
HOWEVER, what could affect Warning long-term is if modeling agencies lose the lawsuit and are found guilty. The government could rule that modeling agencies can only charge models 10% commission instead of the now-standard 20% commission, lowering the revenues of all agencies. In Warning's benefit, if the judgment goes against the agencies involved, it could strengthen markets outside the fashion nucleus of NYC, namely LA, where Warning is based, and bring them more clients & therefore revenues.
For instance, Elite Model Mgmt, one of the largest and most established agencies, has already filed for bankruptcy protection and put the agency up for sale. Models may be less likely to sign with a bankrupt agency for representation, especially when there are so many other choices, and clients may be less likely to use models from a bankrupt agency.
THE FEDERAL CLASS ACTION ANTI TRUST CASE BEGINS JURY SELECTION IN 2 WEEKS
Agencies named in the suit:
Ford Models, Mr. Gerald Ford, Que Mgmt, Wilhelmina Models, Elite Model Mgmt, Next Mgmt, IMG Models, Click Model mgmt, Images Mgmt, Model Mgmt Corp (f/k/a Intermational Model Managers Association "IMMA").
Plaintiffs (models) allege that defendants, throught their membership or associations with others..of the modeling industry's trade association, IMMA (now called MMC), had the opportunity to, and did indeed, fix prices.., terms and conditions of models' employment, and the manner in which to structure their businesses (as mgmt companies rather than employment agencies).
..Plaintiffs' theory is that defendants agreed upon uniform practices on several fronts, all with the motive to squash competition...
Plaintiffs assert that the conspiracy began with an agreement among defendants, collectively, to transform the structure of their businesses from employment agencies to mgmt agencies- for the express purpose of avoiding the 10% cap imposed upon employment agencies...
That's the gyst of the Federal suit. Again, not sure how this affects Warning, if it will at all, but when you read about it in the news, remember that it only targets the defendants mentioned above.
Which is exactly why, when asked if there are any other modeling agencies to invest in, I answer at this juncture, NO.
Just keeping the board informed,

Go to the Berlin stock exchange board (www berlinerboerse de) and put in the symbol for Warning (RZB). Then pull up a chart to see how far back it goes. Amazing how the drop in pps happens the very next day after listing, and practically ever since, isn't it? Warning was listed the day after the Paris Hilton news broke, and began falling within 24 hours.
This gives support to the following types of PR's from other companies:
Andrew Benson, President DataMEG Corp. states, "We have noticed a constant selling pressure on the Company's equity at or around the same time this listing appeared on the Berlin Exchange. We will continue with our investigation to determine how such a transaction occurred and who solicited and authorized this listing transaction without the Company's consent."

I know you've been contacted by investors concerned about WNMI being listed in Berlin. Just in case you hadn't seen this, I wanted to show you that if you go to the Berlin exchange web site (www berlinerboerse de) and put in Warning's symbol (RZB), and click on a chart of any length, you'll see that your company was listed the day after the Paris Hilton news was released (see where the chart begins?), and the pps began declining within 24 hours (see attached chart).
This gives further credence to the many companies that are complaining about listing in Berlin and the associated short selling, such as this recent PR from DTMG:
Andrew Benson, President DataMEG Corp. states, "We have noticed a constant selling pressure on the Company's equity at or around the same time this listing appeared on the Berlin Exchange. We will continue with our investigation to determine how such a transaction occurred and who solicited and authorized this listing transaction without the Company's consent."

I'll let you know if he sends an informative reply beyond "thank you we're looking into it."

Thanks for keeping us informed, betting babe! It seems to me that the lawsuit, overall, is a positive thing for Warning. Lots of big names could be looking for new representation soon. (By the way, I'm sure you know this...do the big names typically have 12 month contracts, or how does that work? Like Vendela, Stephanie Seymour, Rachel Hunter, etc. at Ford?)
And even if a 10% ruling was enacted, I'm not expecting the lion's share of Warning income to come from those fees. If we're lucky, at least some of the licensing deals will pan out and likely be the primary sources of revenue. IMO.
I can't see an agency signing a model for under a 2 year contract. Typically, it's 5 years if the agency wants to keep them. Me personally, I'm under five year contracts with my agencies, automatically renewable unless a party cancels within 30 days of the end of the contract.

Thanks. I wonder, with Elite putting itself up for sale, whether those models have the choice of terminating their contracts if and when their agency is sold. Do your contracts say anything about that, do you recall?
[This message has been edited by longfellow (edited May 17, 2004).]
It's all arguable, but the President's neice seems to feel Elite is still good enough for her. It's just a way for Elite to avoid paying up on judgements against them.

Bonar is taking a lot of heat on some boards which I'm not sure he deserves. Time will tell. He's only been with Warning for a short time so it's hard to blame too much on him. When things are down it's normal to blame the CEO. Personally, I'm not concerned about the current pps, I'm loading the boat.

Yea I agree with you. WNMI will deff go up. You might have to hold on to it for a bit. They do have some trouble, but they just have to put themselves together. WNMI has the support and I am guessing we should never return below .01 after mid June.

My new system is to go to yahoo fiance and type in any stock symbol I am interested in, and add a ".be" to the end of the symbol, and if it says there is no matches found it's okay.
Try it yourself. Check TSBB. http://finance.yahoo.com/q?s=wnmi.be
If anyone knows German you can navigate your way around the Berlin Stock Exchange at www.berlineboerse.de
I don't speak or read German so I had trouble getting around, but some of you people might be able to make sense of it.
The point is that we might have access to a list of stocks that are trading there.

I have been researching the Berlin issue for a while now. No, WNMI was not delisted today, it normally shows a 0 volume. The concerns about shorting and arbitrage are not necessarily tied to volume in Berlin; they concern a loophole that allows U.S. brokers to accept naked shorts on companies that are listed on more than one exchange (such as Berlin). If you go to the Berlin site, you can bring up Warning's info by typing in "RZB" (their symbol in Berlin), or simply by typing "Warning Models". I have been in contact with Brian Bonar for over a month on this issue, and the only response recieved to date is that they are researching the legal aspects and expect to take a position on the subject soon.
Good job Longfellow! I'm interested in your the results of you contacts with him & your thoughts in general on WNMI. I'm holding a nice size position in this company. Bought more last week & may continue accumulating.

Nothing yet. Last week, the low pps/berlin listing connection was all I read about on RB. Lately, the tune has been changing to shorting from Berlin not being as intense or having as much of a major impact on us as some think. Either way, it would be nice to hear directly from Warning about their 'official' stance on this issue and when it can be resolved. Bullrun coming soon....I'm pumped for that. Live here in South Florida and will be going down to South Beach to check things out. Will report back with details and my take on things there.

Babe, the last email Bonar sent me indicated he expected to take a position on the issue last week, pending legal advice; still no word from him either way. I'm hoping we hear this coming week, it would be nice to have that open question become moot.
If I remember correctly, longfellow, they said they would "investigate" the situation. When it happens is perhaps out of their control- them initiating the action is another.

Isn't aynone concerned about these statements in their 10Q?
******************************************
WNMI's revenues have been insufficient to cover operating expenses. Therefore,WNMI has been dependent on private placements of its common stock and issuanceof convertible notes in order to sustain operations.

Over the next twelve months an addition of $400,000 will be needed to sustainthe business. Management is of the opinion that sufficient working capital willbe obtained from operations and external financing to meet WNMI's liabilitiesand commitments as they become payable. WNMI has in the past relied on privateplacements of common stock securities, and loans from private investors tosustain operations.

On June 4th, 2004 the world's top models, celebrities and 200 luxury super cars will be under starters orders in LA, ready to embark on an epic eight-day 3000 mile rolling party across the southern United States.
Bullrun brings together stars of life, sport and screen for an unforgettable adventure, where, evidently, the only obligatory goals are to party, drive and enjoy. Fueled by an impressive schedule of private events at the finest hotels in the most exciting cities in America, Bullrunners make their way from one checkpoint to the next, learning their destinations daily. Designed to impress even the headiest of hedonists, Bullrun promises to leave those who feel they've already done everything glam, fast and furious, pleasantly surprised.
This year's rally scheduled for June 4th to 11th will take us on an unforgettable journey -- a moveable feast of super cars, superstars and only the finest hotels and bars. Beginning in Los Angeles, to Las Vegas, Phoenix, Santa Fe, Dallas, New Orleans, Tampa and finally rocking to a close in celebration capital of America, Miami.
Bullrun will also be the first rally to be seen through the eyes of the international media, providing an exclusive insight to all the antics one would expect on an A-class 8 day party. Media from around the globe including MTV, BBC, Robb Report, GQ and Conde Naste Traveler are confirmed and with the list of celebrities entered we are confident that Access Hollywood, E, EXtra, Entertainment Tonight and VH1 will provide coverage. Steve Chamberlin (Warning COO) states, "This annual production will not only help generate substantial revenue for Warning, but just as important is getting the Warning name and logo out to mass exposure which is crucial for future plans. We expect the Warning Label to be prominently displayed throughout the event by many popular models, celebrities and on all luxury vehicles. More exciting developments including sponsorships will be announced soon."

Yes, I agree, I've stated before that if management plays their cards right over the next year they have a decent shot at getting listed on NYSE, given their creative approaches to potentially lucrative licensing deals. My focus is on 2005 and 2006.

No, quite the opposite. That report does not reflect any of the major developments yet this year. I can't imagine with Hilton on board that they will have any problem covering operating expenses, and the reports for the last two quarters should reflect that (agencies typically make the bulk of their revs in the last two Q's anyways). I plan on accumulating through the year unless management makes any blunders, so I'm happy for things to look "bleak" now. Better prices for the early birds.
I guess I count as an early bird cause I bought more!

Thanks guys!
Still in for the long haul... (just wondering how long the haul is ; ) )

This stock could be up a lot sooner than the end of the summer; if the right PR came out that Warning was buying Elite or something similar. Then again, it might not. Either way, I'm continuing to accumulate, the long term gains here will be made eventually, for those that have patience.
i'm lookin' for advice, should i just cut the thread that is holding me to this stock and tkae my losses somewhere else? or should i continue to hold for the long run.
all these down days with this stock really hurts mentally. any and all help would be appriciated.

The thought of being able to blame someone else for my mistake sounds great!
Oh, and if anyone has time could they please elaborate on the PREM-14A filed this morning by WNMI? I think it means either share dillution or a possible merger, but Im totally confused. Sorry ppl! THANKS..-Thats what I get for placing money in something called Warning!-

It means share dilution. They will use the additional 1.2 billion shares to aquire services or they will get cash to grow their business. Would doubt a merger but in penny land I guess anything is possible.

merger- hrmm.. what if, given the loss of revenue to televison agents and Warning's expressed interest to grow thru m&a, they were to acquire a business that reps tv talent? they do, after all, want to become a multi-media full-service agency. didn't i read that somewhere?
and then, if they repped that tv talent, Steve Chamberlin's Warning could do business with George Furla's Family Room Entertainment and two friends could give their revenues to each other.
It would be a beautiful symbiotic relationship, no?
Just brainstorming...

Mr. Bonar:
WNMI's share price crash is such an atrocity it is difficult to determine exactly where one begins with questions and comments.
Of course my decision to invest was prompted by the news release of WNMI's representation of Paris Hilton and Malia Jones, as well as WARNING being featured in an episode of "Faking It", among other things.
At the time of the announcement and shortly thereafter, the stock was trading between .015 -.04 which is my basis. I took a position of a X shares at .0X or $XX,000 based upon the aforementioned events.
The share price fell slightly but was no cause for alarm; however, the price of .006 is cause for great alarm and reasonable explanations from WNMI top management.
Please enlighten me to what has changed and caused my investment to go from $XX,000 to $X,000.
Your Q1 results were horrible; but you couldn't have had revenues from your new clients at that time.
On the other hand, news and agreements you have announced elevated your share price and yet you have painted an abysmal picture of the company going forward under management discussion.
I note that your share price was .003; however at that time there was no Paris Hilton, Malia Jones or Dennis Rodman, etc. I would expect your share price to increase; so please do not try and use the .003 to .006 as some sort of positive progress report.
Further, I did some background checking into your dealings which turned up less than favorable information. At the time of the announcements, you were not the CEO and accordingly that fact would have been unknown to investors such as myself. Subsequently, after seeing your various involvement in other penny stock failures, the obvious conclusion may possibly be drawn for WNMI.
What stock manipulation activities have you engaged in? Have you been shorting your own stock at higher prices for quick gains? Have you been flooding the market with unregistered shares?
In the absence of bad news, the share price is not legally .006. The share price has been manipulated to a large degree and if you have no direct or indirect responsibility, then what other explanations can you offer up regarding the abominable share price at which WNMI trades today. For your information the price is .006! if you're not following your company's share price daily.
Where are the signed "deals" that will add value to the company. Have you failed to close any deals on behalf of Paris Hilton? Is the deal with some other Paris Hilton and not the true socialite Paris Hilton?
You have not kept shareholders informed of any new substantial developments positive or otherwise. You now have a fiduciary and moral duty to inform your shareholders about the obvious horrible turn of events that has led to the atrocious share price of .006.
Your stock has been in a steady decline [which begs manipulation] and crashed today on 70 million shares traded in volume without negative news or any news at all. I searched and searched. I noted your filing to increase authorised shares but that is no reason for a crash such as the one that took place today.
Is there something to which individual investors are not privy? Insiders selling? Pending bankruptcy? Paris Hilton leaving WNMI? Malia Jones alleged new line falling through?
As an individual investor, I know it's usual and customary procedure that individual investors are the last to know about important developments, but somebody knows something or the share price wouldn't have crashed needlessly.
Furthermore, somebody must know something or WNMI is being manipulated in which case and in light of your fiduciary duties on behalf of WNMI shareholders, you have an absolute obligation to WNMI shareholders to get to the bottom of it unless of course you're part of the problem.
Awaiting answers here.

If I see a response I'll post it here. I'm feeling a little dumb because I'm long term & holding shares that are very red. In any event I may buy more when the dust settles. There's just too much this company can do with PRs. I'm in the hopes that they increase their share price significantly before they cut any deals with their new shares. Also would love to see a line of clothing with all WNMI wearing the product!

Yes I've been ruminating along those lines as well. The fact that Warning wants to remove the word "model" from their name suggests to me something along those lines. Steve said that they were working on many long-term projects, and something like that would put Warning in a whole new ball game. Given their creative approaches to date, I would not be surprised.

WNMI Update - Spoke to Bonar:
I had a lengthy phone call with Brian Bonar yesterday. I made it clear that the lack of transparency and dearth of communications means the request to raise the AS would be taken in a negative light unless the company tells the shareholders why they need to do it to succeed. It was not necessarily easy at first to discuss this, but I felt the overall tone of the conversation ended up as an improvement over my previous efforts to cover similar topics. He said he would relay my strong argument to the board to see if they will open up more to shareholders about their business plan and need for funding.
What I say is not me spouting the party line, just my report and hedge about the probability of the outcome of the claims made. It still comes down to needing interim operational funds. Brian still claims they have a very good chance of supporting their operational costs by year's end (give or take a quarter I think), but that they need funding to keep the ship upright until then. That is possible. When asked if the company can do anything to prop the share price up so that conversions are exercised at a higher price thereby rendering a greater capital gain to Warning! for their expenses, he said they need to become profitable to raise the share price. He claims they can do it in the next year and the company itself is solid. My take on that is the company potential can indeed make that happen, but that it would then take some time to build up the share price over the next six months. But based on further considerations, I think there are reasons the price can go higher. It may take profitability to achieve the multiples we originally hoped for, but the stock can still climb out of its current gutter this Summer and Fall based on other potential developments.
The need for preferred shares would be fo acquisitions. This indicates the company wants to bring in a revenue producing business that will support operations. Fans of MobilePro (MOBL) have applausded this strategy. If Warning! can accomplish this, then there could be a real positive pivot moment in this stock should they succeed with this premise. If I knew the preferred shares were to be used for this I would consent. Any acquisition should certainly be expected to be related to their current business and their stated plans. I am not expecting an acquisition of something unrelated. My understanding is it would not be treated as a subsidiary, but fully integrated into Warning! This seems like a serious possibility and if it happens, the bottom line could start to show significant improvements. My guess this could happen within 2-6 months.
If they are able to do this and grow the rest of the existing business organically (it is operational after all), then I understand they can't go begging to Paris Hilton for funds when they are trying to present themselves as being a positive agent for her career. In essence, it would be hard to solicit funding from within the fashion and entertainment business without looking needy and it would send the wrong message about their future and capabilities. He does not feel they can presently raise money outside of selling shares. He said it does not mean 2B AS is going to be dumped into market. He was quite forceful about this and said there will be 3 month waiting periods for some options to be exercised. I do not believe the share count will double overnight either.
They are going to contract with an Investor Relations firm. He said this will help with shareholder concerns. I asked him if we are looking forward to a dry Summer without PRs and he said definitely not. I asked why it has been so quiet and he said there was no material event they could conclusively report on. He said they were also skittish because they had been accused of issuing a misleading PRs previously, though I don't see that particularly myself, perhaps it was just some shareholder's perceptions. I highly stressed the importance of issuing a shareholder update and that it does not require a specific event to inform us of what each department is up to. I said that, after all, you have people working on shoots, right? Yes, of course, he said. So why don't we know about that? He said he would consider this too and I think he will since I made a very strong case for it.
They are updating the website so we can look forward to seeing something new there soon too. It should also include information for investors. He said web design and IR costs money and that was part of the new costs being incurred.
I do believe the trademark status should be cleared up soon and Warning! will have it uncontested. I've looked into this independently and I think it is so. Since I was most interested in the branding concept to begin with, this was and is key to me, so I think we may be seeing the dam break open in terms of their ability to push the Warning! logo towards the end of this Summer. He voluntarily said they have every intention of pursuing the fashion business and I think this is currently the key sticking point that should shortly be resolved. Remember that I mentioned the trademark status and the need to secure it before the company really starts to promote itself? I think I was dead on the mark. Once that is done, we should be seeing a very different public company.
If this all adds up it means we may be sitting on our positions for the next month or two to work things out. There may be some PR action within a couple of weeks and a return of trading volume at different points. But the bigger picture, the one I had before, would take us to the end of this year to flesh out the picture. I think I'll be in this for quite a while with at least some of my shares. I'm guardedly optimistic about being able to still recover my principal and ride free shares to see if what he has told me is true. If it is, then this will still be maybe a very good company potentially a good stock too. Should they grow their existing business, make some great deals, make a revenue contributing acquisition and start promoting themselves once the trademark is settled, then I think we'd be seeing a different company than we do now and the stock would respond. For now, I'd advise patience.
"He said they were also skittish because they had been accused of issuing a misleading PRs previously, though I don't see that particularly myself, perhaps it was just some shareholder's perceptions."
that is what i referenced yesterday. unfortunately i think some bitter investors on other boards are stirring up trouble, giving warning one more issue to deal with. i think the legal disputes are completely unfounded.
i agree, patience is key. this was never a day trade for me- always a long, and i think i've stated that numerous times. report on models' jobs? that could start a problem with confidentiality- how would you like to be the ad agency that scores a big name for a fal campaign only to have the glory taken out of your unveling cuz the model agency announced it sixth months before its debut?! seriously, i have that problem jsut posting pictures on my website- the polaroids at the end of a job are destroyed and all evidence of the client's "trade secrets" are kept under wraps. i have an awesome virginia slims campaign shot by arthur elgort coming out this fall- but i can't tell you about it, cuz i'm not allowed. i imagine Warning is in the same situation regarding their PRs.
i'm still in & holding, and until i get bad news, no amount of rumor can change my mind.
no caps- i'm getting lazy ;-)

Well, that makes me feel better. I already averaged down just BEFORE this latest tumble off the face of the earth, so I'm fully underwater here. However... it's nice to know that although the company is losing big bucks, they are going to spend even more money to hire a firm that will be tasked with convincing me that I'm not that upset about losing as much as they did in the first place. I can already feel my concerns slipping away.

If I see a response to Badgirl's letter I will bring it to you!
Lonfellow, thanks for bringing that post by Investorgation to the board.
Personally I'm long & yes, all my shares are red. I have an average paying job & without too much strain will buy more at these prices then sit on them. I'm good with dicipline & will see a profit from every share I hold!

Mr. Bonar returned my e-mail. I'm giving him the benefit of the doubt although I don't like that he has a relationship with Mercator.
Normally I refrain from posting a reply but this is a good one and takes me to task in a nice professional manner.
Here is his response to one of my excitable e-mails:
Your opinion regarding my knowledge of selling patterns is wrong. We are developing the company for long term growth and profitability and that takes time. May I suggest you refrain from using the terms used in your E mail and simply stick to facts and focused questions that I may try and answer.
Brian Bonar-
So I've decided that I am going to ask him the difference between a booking agent and a manager. That is a focused question and it's perfectly reasonable.

Betting babe, you're up in the big apple, right? You should sneak in to Letterman and get the advance word on whether she mentions Warning or not! He tapes at like 1 or 2pm I think. *chuckle*
Notice will be given when the exact day has been selected and at what time and place the meeting will be held.

As those who bought on the run panic and leave the stock it will often trade lower as we are doing here.
My thought from here is we have one of the best guys in the business running the talent end of the business. Let him do his job ( Chambers ) and the real news will come.

Vinny, Warning doesn't represent her acting career, only her modeling. But I agree, we are definitely due for some news. I expect some sort of Paris news before long, now that she's back from Australia, I am sure they are busy finding her work.

Longfellow - I know very little of the modeling business, so anything I say is pure speculation. I just thought though... isn't modeling "small potatoes" compared to singing and acting, producing a clothing line, etc... I wonder if Paris getting into those fields will be good or bad for us. If she gets so tied up in other ventures, I would assume she would be less available for (or interested in) smaller jobs like modeling. I know big celebs do some modeling, but none of them seem to be highly devoted to it. At this point I think she is really transitioning from being a model who dabbles in a few other things to being a star/celebrity who does a little modeling on the side. Any thoughts? I would certainly defer to anyone who has a more qualified opinion on this than mine (which likely includes EVERYONE). BB where are you?

I am not concerned about that, personally. My guess is that the more she ventures into other fields and builds her overall career, the more she will be worth as a model. So even if she did end up doing less modeling (which might not be true regardless), I doubt that would decrease Warning's revenues from her work.
Also, I expect the lion's share of Warning revenues to be from product licensing deals, such as Malia's clothing line and products, and eventually Warning's own clothing line. Incidentally, word is that the trademark will be approved within the next few weeks, so perhaps we'll see some action in that area before long.
I as a practise make sure of my facts and can assure you that the Berlin Exchange has confirmed to me in writting that this is fact is the case. I cannot at this time give you factual clarification on the difference. My personal opinion is that to be listed you must satisfy specific requirements and to be traded is simply a response to a request to have the exchange facilitate a trade. More important is the trading history of WNMI on the Berlin Exchange , specifically the daily volume and price in comparison to the daily volume and price on the OTCBB. If the facts show that the volume and price as a % of that traded on the OTC is high enough to confirm the suspicion, then those who have this opinion are correct. If in fact it is not then there is no basis for there concern and accusation. Further research will confirm this and then the company will take a position on the subject. It is not appropriate to simply make a Press Release about a concern and have the company not traded on this exchange and have no impact on the price or the status of our Stock. Thank you for your continued interest in Warning.

I am accumilating the stock. They are increasing the availible outstanding from 800 million to 2 billion. If all 2 billion were out today the market cap would only be about 9.8 mil with a 0.0047 bid. I am thinking it is worth alot more than that.
Depending on what they do with the extra 1.2 billion shares this could be a great play from here. I am betting on it at the moment.
Just my guess and I am no expert.

looks like slight movement, ask up to .005 which is just CRAZY!!!!!!
250k for the Photography division that didn't start until March 25 and is expected to produce 1MM in it's first year based off the PR.
500k with the addition of Dina Ziegler's portfolio which produced 2MM last year and was not a part of WARNING in Q1.
100K Just a guess at the revenues produced with the addition of Malia,Paris,Rodman, Bullrun.....this is just a wild guess so feel free to provide your own estimate.
400k Business as usual not including any of the above new additions.
1,250M total. Not too shabby considering the current PPS.
Take care and good luck to all.

It was a Letterman rerun, and both times it aired, she didn't mention Warning. Has anyone ever seen a celebrity promote their agent on TV before? It would be nice, though.

News of a law suit,http://home.comcast.net/~action8101/WNMI_case.pdf
It has not been designated a class-action at this time (according to the link), but that could be a possibility if enough investors bring suit.
The basis for the suit is the allegation the management at WNMI, over a time period of several months, manipulated the marketplace, to benefit themselves. Then, allegedly, they gave false or misleading statements and reports through press releases and SEC filings.
A brief synopsis of the alleged events and timelines is:
-The former CEO (Michael Rudolph) resigns unexpectedly February 4, 2004.
-Brian Bonar is appointed to the Board of Directors, also February 4, 2004.
-Secret deals commence with different individuals which will artificially inflate the price of shares of WNMI, eventually reaching $.055 per share.
-As this is happening, WNMI in collusion with others are dumping shares onto the market at highly inflated prices.
-During this strategic time of share dumping at high prices, WNMI is releasing one PR after another to keep the price up as long as possible.
-When the 10K and 10Q come out, share price drops and PRs stop.
-Contrary to what was reported, Brian Bonar was being helped by the Berlin stock exchange, in that any naked short selling being done was advantageous to driving down the price of shares.
-At this time, all the people close to WNMI's inner circle are well-off due to the well-planned deceit.
-Upcoming is a stockholders meeting, designed to be the next phase of this plan.
Although I have tried to be thorough, I also wanted to be brief, so this information may not be entirely accurate, but it is based on my interpretation of how I read the suit.
Also, I have not taken a position on whether this suit has merits or not. I have merely repeated the allegations as I understood them.
Do I need any more disclaimers?
Well, if I do, consider them implied.

"Toxic funders"
"Off-shore death spiral financiers"
Conversion rate of .0006/share towards a convertible note
Man, this is uuuuhhhhh---gly
The real punch will come if they back up the allegations with evidence.
Bob
PS I must say I was extremely surprised to see the stock rebound off the morning lows.
If this goes to trial, and especially if it gets class-action status, it is going to be BIG trouble for WNMI's bottom line for a long time. It could get worse if people start leaving the country.

Um, excuse me, but I never said that I side with the dirtbags behind manipulation!! The point I'd like to make is that we all know about the 'pump and dump' schemes which is what the fabric of the otc is made of. So what, do we cheer for the plaintiffs? If these two bought at .005 and sold at .05 therby making thousands instead of losing, would they still be suing, on the behalf of all the bagholders who didn't sell? Answer: NOT!! Make money = who cares about underhanded pump/dump schemes. Lose money = SUE!!!!! Gimme a break.
Do I understand your position correctly?

This is not just a matter of market timing. It is a matter of market manipulation through fraud, deceptive business practices, and collusive activity.
You start by saying many made money and many lost. I disagree. The few who made gads of money did so knowing that they were perpetrating a scheme on an unsuspecting public, the majority of whom lost money.
Further, the management of any corporation is charged with a duty to work for the best interests of those who own it, ie. the shareholders. With that comes a fiduciary responsibility to be honest and work in our best interests not against us.
Tell me, how were we benefitted by their actions, if the allegations are true?
If some one you knew was run over by a reckless driver, maybe they shouldn't have been in the street, but shouldn't the driver be brought to justice? How would you feel if you knew the driver had been aiming for them, trying to run the people over?
This puts the issue in a different light, as I see it.

Best post I have read ANYWHERE in a long time. Great analogy with the reckless driver. I agree 100%! When the officers of a company accept those positions, they are agreeing to work in the best interest of the shareholders. If they disregard their fiduciary responsibility to those who pay their salaries, that would be negligent and cause for termination. If they conspire to defraud the shareholders, that is another matter entirely. In that case, their activity is not just negligent... it's unlawful. Further, it assuredly violates the terms of their employment (standard contract) and may constitute legal cause for forfeiture of salary and bonuses retroactively in addition to other monetary penalties. Cases like this often end up in criminal court... not just civil court. This, of course, assumes the allegations are true. These individuals are innocent until proven guilty, just like the rest of us.
What say you guys?
Thanks in advance...

My guess is things are going to drift until we see 1) the next 10Q, 2) more info on this lastest development, or 3) a large buyer or seller moves in for whatever reason and moves the price one way or the other.
The price of the stock is about the same place it was 4 months ago, but now we have added dilution, a potential stock scandal, and the addition of Paris Hilton. (The way I count that, it's 2 negatives and 1 positive.)
I see this stock as looking for a direction to go, and when it goes, it may move big. But that could be up or down.
As for me, I watch this stock constantly, but I'm not going to make any moves until I see something that catches my attention.

Anyone else in a wait and see position like me? Or was everyone smart enough to get out lol...

WNMI's revenues have been insufficient to cover operating expenses. Therefore, WNMI has been dependent on private placements of its common stock and issuance of convertible notes in order to sustain operations. In addition, there can be no assurances that the proceeds from private or other capital will continue to be available, or that revenues will increase to meet WNMI's cash needs, or that a sufficient amount of WNMI's common stock or other securities can or will be sold or that any common stock purchase options/warrants will be exercised to fund the operating needs of WNMI.
Over the next twelve months an addition of $300,000 will be needed to sustain the business. Management is of the opinion that sufficient working capital will be obtained from operations and external financing to meet WNMI's liabilities and commitments as they become payable. WNMI has in the past relied on private placements of common stock securities, and loans from private investors to sustain operations. However, if WNMI is unable to obtain additional funding in the future, it may be forced to curtail or terminate operations.

Warning! Model Management, Inc. Enters Into Escrow Agreement For the Acquisition of ESI, Inc.
Monday August 30, 7:00 am ET
Staffing company expected to contribute over $12 million in annual revenues
LOS ANGELES, Aug. 30, 2004 (PRIMEZONE) -- Warning Model Management Inc. (OTC BB:WNMI.OB - News) today announced that it has entered into an escrow agreement with Berryman & Henigar Enterprises, current owner of ESI (Employment Systems, Inc.), a California corporation, for Warning's acquisition of ESI. Warning has deposited into escrow the portion of the purchase price payable at closing.
ADVERTISEMENT
Pursuant to the terms of the Escrow Agreement, Warning will have 15 days to complete its due diligence investigation of ESI and conclude the ESI acquisition. Berryman & Henigar, established in 1975, provides municipal management consulting, civil engineering, land surveying, public finance, building safety, asset management, and program and construction management to public agencies.
ESI provides staffing services and business processing services to municipalities and small businesses principally in Southern California.
On an annualized basis, management estimates the revenue contribution from ESI to be $12 million. ``We are certainly very pleased to have the letter of intent in hand and moving forward with the acquisition,'' said Brian Bonar, Warning's Chairman and CEO. ``ESI is expected to provide to us a significant increase in revenues and profits,'' said Bonar. ``We have been aggressively seeking a company like ESI and are very pleased to have found ESI, as they are a perfect fit,'' he added. This acquisition enables Warning to enter the staffing business as part of its strategic plan.
"municipal management consulting, civil engineering, land surveying, public finance, building safety, asset management, and program and construction management to public agencies." ?!?!?!
they just released yet another train-wreck Q, and they are flat broke. so - let's go out and acquire a company where we know nothing about the business. i could almost sort of see the argument for trying to expand in modeling, but - building safety? asset management? gee, like if i'm a business owner who puts up a building, i'm really going to think "you know, i should have that cheesy paris hilton company inspect my building for safety. and then i should have them manage my assets, because they've done such a good job managing their own finances". yeah right. the only thing this company is any good for is - a laugh, and losing money. aside from earning $ for their management - big bonuses for "a job well done". what a joke, this company is simply pitiful. focus on fixing the incredibly broken core business, not on wasting money you don't have on something out in left field.

Paris Hilton Launches New Jewelry Line Exclusively on Amazon.com
SEATTLE--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Sept. 1, 2004--
Hilton's First Commercial Product Line is Featured in an Online Boutique that Includes the Entire 10-Piece Collection and Exclusive Content
Amazon.com, Inc. (Nasdaq:AMZN) today announced the launch of the Paris Hilton Collection, a line of jewelry designed by Paris Hilton and available exclusively at the Amazon.com Jewelry Store. Amazon has created a special Paris Hilton Boutique, www.amazon.com/parishilton, where customers can see photographs of Hilton wearing the designs and detailed product images and descriptions.
"I grew up surrounded by the finest fashion and jewelry designs, and I really wanted to create a line that was beautiful and very high quality, yet affordable and available to everyone," said Paris Hilton. "Amazon.com is the perfect place to launch the line because customers everywhere can shop for it -- whether they live in LA or New York or a very small town. This jewelry is for the heiress in everyone."
The 10-piece collection includes necklaces, earrings, a charm bracelet, an ankle bracelet, a belly chain and a belly bar. Priced from $15 to $95, the designs are crafted from the highest quality sterling silver and set with Swarovski crystals.

"The boutique on Amazon.com offers a blend of entertainment and shopping that customers can't find elsewhere, including beautiful images of Paris wearing the jewelry that could be from the pages of a fashion magazine, as well as a personal video message from Paris."
Renowned fashion photographer and artist Marc Baptiste created the images of Hilton wearing the designs that are now featured in the Amazon.com boutique. Behind-the-scenes video footage of the photo shoot is available for viewing in the boutique, as well as footage of Hilton working in the design studio. Hilton also recorded a personal video message to Amazon.com shoppers who visit the boutique.
Every piece from the Paris Hilton Collection is delivered to customers in Amazon.com's signature midnight-blue velvet jewelry pouches, and includes a keepsake card with a note from Paris Hilton featuring her signature tiara logo.

for some unknown reason i never sold it. suppose i have some hope for it's future- it's not like the agency is going to go out of business- so it's just money that sits there. less money than it was for sure, but like i said the company ain't closing.
side note on that-
i asked a few of my friends who are pictured on the Warning website as models they represent. Ok, maybe it's just the selection of models I asked, but there was a general consensus...
none of the girls i asked is really working through them. in other words, they are "with" them, but not getting work. In warning's defense, there isn't a lot of work to be had in LA and they can't book NY work cuz most of their models already have NY agencies.
and what disturbed me more is that a couple of the girls said they were told they couldn't work til they lost weight. these are size 4/6 healthy girls. so i guess warning is going for that ultra-thin feed-me editorial look...
