15 more days to go for the NASDAQ BB company aquisition to close, more or less.
Filthy Hands..... To me, this activity for SSTY has been the most normal for the last few weeks. It doesn't even dawn on me anymore when the price drops to an all time low then goes up a few notches every hour. I don't even get pissed off anymore like this.....--->

This might explain the quietness around here... very exciting post I just pulled off the PBLS thread...
posted March 02, 2006 07:50 AM -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Big, I'm gonna' post this as some may just ride past the link.
Quiet Period The federal securities laws do not define the term "quiet period," which is also referred to as the "waiting period." However, historically, a quiet period extended from the time a company files a registration statement with the SEC until SEC staff declared the registration statement "effective." During that period, the federal securities laws limited what information a company and related parties can release to the public.
On June 29, 2005, the Commission voted to adopt modifications to the registration, communications, and offering processes under the Securities Act of 1933. Among many other provisions, the rules update and liberalize permitted offering activity and communications to allow more information to reach investors by revising the "gun-jumping" provisions under the Securities Act. The cumulative effects of these rules are as follows:
Well-known seasoned issuers are permitted to engage at any time in oral and written communications, including use at any time of a new type of written communication called a "free writing prospectus," subject to enumerated conditions (including, in some cases, filing with the Commission).
All reporting issuers are, at any time, permitted to continue to publish regularly released factual business information and forward-looking information.
Non-reporting issuers are, at any time, permitted to continue to publish factual business information that is regularly released and intended for use by persons other than in their capacity as investors or potential investors.
Communications by issuers more than 30 days before filing a registration statement will be permitted so long as they do not reference a securities offering that is the subject of a registration statement.
All issuers and other offering participants will be permitted to use a free writing prospectus after the filing of the registration statement, subject to enumerated conditions (including, in some cases, filing with the Commission). Offering participants, other than the issuer, will be liable for a free writing prospectus only if they use, refer to, or participate in the planning and use of the free writing prospectus by another offering participant who uses it. Issuers will have liability for any issuer information contained in any other offering participant's free writing prospectus as well as any free writing prospectus they prepare, use, or refer to.
The exclusions form the definition of prospectus are expanded to allow a broader category of routine communications regarding issuers, offerings, and procedural matters, such as communications about the schedule for an offering or about account-opening procedures.
The exemptions for research reports are expanded. A number of these new rules include conditions of eligibility. Most of the rules, for example, are not available to blank check companies, penny stock issuers, or shell companies.
The rules address the treatment under the Securities Act of electronic communications, including electronic road shows and information located on or hyperlinked to an issuer's website. The rules define written communication as any communication that is written, printed, a radio or television broadcast, or a graphic communication. The definition of graphic communication and, thus, electronic road show excludes communications that are carried live and in real-time to a live audience, regardless of the means of transmission. Electronic road shows for initial public offerings of common equity or convertible equity securities will have to make a bona fide electronic road show readily available to an unrestricted audience to avoid filing the electronic road show with the Commission. No other road shows will be subject to filing.
The effective date of the rules is December 1, 2005. For more information, please see Release No. 33-8591 — Securities Offering Reform.

I just got this off of Yahoo news. SSTY needs to start getting their name in these as the help that is needed:
U.S. Envoy Says China Failing to Do Enough to Curb Rampant Product Piracy
BEIJING (AP) -- China is failing to do enough to prevent growing product piracy and could be forced to answer formal complaints over it in the World Trade Organization if it doesn't take more aggressive action, a U.S. trade envoy said Friday.
"The problem is getting worse. What's needed is substantial reform of the entire approach China takes on the issue," said James Mendenhall, general counsel for the U.S. Trade Representative.
Mendenhall was in Beijing to meet with Chinese officials for talks on intellectual property rights protection and a tariff dispute involving U.S. auto parts. Washington launched a crackdown last month on what it says are unfair Chinese trade practices.
The visit comes ahead of an April trip by Chinese President Hu Jintao to Washington to meet with President Bush. American and Chinese economic officials are also expected to meet in Washington in April.
China is widely regarded as the world's top producer of illegal copies of music, movies, software, designer clothes, medicines and other products. Such fake products are still widely available despite repeated government crackdowns.
U.S. officials contend unauthorized goods are costing legitimate producers worldwide up to $50 billion a year in lost potential sales.
"The bottom line is, at the end of the day, the system is not effectively deterrent," Mendenhall said at a lunch for American and Chinese businesspeople.
"They need to take a broader approach, a comprehensive approach and a consistent approach so that the authorities from the local level on up to the central level deliver the message to the public that IPR (intellectual property rights) is a critical problem."
Chinese officials have amended laws, launched anti-piracy campaigns and taken other steps to curb IPR infringements, but "we still have not seen what we'd like to see," he said.
China's Commerce Ministry did not immediately respond to a fax from The Associated Press requesting a response to Mendenhall's comments.
In the past, state media has trumpeted the government's efforts to curb piracy, announcing large-scale confiscations of fake goods and widespread crackdowns.
On Friday, the official Xinhua News Agency said that more than 1 million pirated DVDs had been confiscated and destroyed since the start of the year.
Washington wants to see stiffer penalties and the permanent closure of factories and stores linked to counterfeits, Mendenhall said. He called for more active enforcement by local governments.
Mendenhall said that if piracy continues, Beijing's trading partners might feel compelled to file WTO complaints, though he said Washington has no plans to do so right now.

Can anyone explain to me why shares are selling at these prices so close to the 16th. Who would be selling? Are there groups that shorted and are looking to get out?

I just placed another order for 7.5 million at .0015. I'm thinking I have to have my head examined. If this does not go up, I'm going to jail for taking my frustrations out on this computer.
