Market Watch for Week of 8/24/2009

We need to create a charity forum - cause, I'm gonna be making donations (with realized gains) in a few names around here :D

While I'm strapped for time this week...

I'd like to create a section on the forum that lists charities that folks patron or otherwise contribute (if only in spirit) to...

example:

I like:

Boys and Girls Clubs of America
Big Brother Bigs Sisters
etc..

If in some way I'm instrumental in helping, say, Dave make a nice profit...wouldn't it make feel great to donate some of the gains to one of my promoted charities?!?

I use Dave as an example since he's a friend that's close enough to smack me if I'm out of line ;) ---and he could, Dr Dave's pretty bad-ass in the martial arts. Good thing for me that he's such a nice guy...

Anyway, back to the charities...

I'd be grateful if someone can clue me as to how to do this & if it's okay that I take on the responsibility === or if that's something that only a moderator/owner can do

I put in an order to short one once to see what restrictions pop up, I think they were stocks under $1, and also no big board stocks. I don't blame them, as, that would mean they'd have to actually hold the things, which would mean that the value of their company would also move with those stocks. Having a basket of big board stocks isn't so risky, especially when you consider the commissions on trades as dividends, but you'd still be surprised at how few shares of the ones they do have are available. I've been unable to go short on some very popular liquid stocks at times, like AAPL, since they only have so many.

I have seen the lists for availability and they are rather small. Nobody is going to hold cheap stocks unless they have a crack in their noggins. The pps goes up and down like an ocean tide, and sometimes they don't come back up for a long time. Sometimes they don't even come back up.

JACKSONVILLE, FL, Aug 26, 2009 (MARKETWIRE via COMTEX) -- In the news release,
"Quasar Aerospace Industries, Inc. Gives a Comprehensive Update to Investors,"
issued earlier today by Quasar Aerospace Industries, Inc. (PINKSHEETS: QASP), we
are advised by the company that the first sentence of the fifth paragraph should
read "These first four acquisitions of these well established aviation and
aerospace related businesses will add an estimated $150 million to Quasar's
revenue and $33 million in EBITDA for the Company's fiscal year 2010." rather
than "These first four acquisitions of these well established aviation and
aerospace related businesses will add an estimated $150 million to Quasar's
revenue and $15 million in EBITDA for the Company's fiscal year 2010." as
originally issued. Complete corrected text follows.

JACKSONVILLE, FL -- August 26, 2009 -- Quasar Aerospace Industries, Inc.
(PINKSHEETS: QASP) (formerly) Equus Resources, Inc. (EQUR) is excited to update
our shareholders on several fronts today. We are providing an update on our
recent capital raise including future capital requirements, our first four
acquisitions and the updated Atlantic Aviation website.

The company does not anticipate a need or any reason to return to the capital
markets for additional funding. We have been very successful in raising the
funds needed thus far, and we are confident we can operate quite comfortably
with the capital currently raised. This should give shareholders confidence in
knowing that our share structure will likely not change for the foreseeable
future. The world economic situation is unpredictable lately as we all know and
things could change. That being said, we remain confident.

According to CEO Dean Bradley, "Once the four announced acquisitions are closed
and operational, they will be providing adequate cash flow for any and all
general needs."

We would like to also update shareholders on the closing of our acquisitions. It
is critical to do the four acquisitions as a single transaction on a single day.
Doing otherwise would lead to excessive transactional fees and duplication of
expenses. With the obvious complications of closing four acquisitions at
precisely the same time on the same day, we have to find a day and time that is
good for all parties and their support and legal teams. We will be soon choosing
a day and time that is acceptable to all concerned. While we tried to make all
of this happen for Friday, August 28, 2009, it simply is not possible. We will
provide an update when it is prudent.

These first four acquisitions of these well established aviation and aerospace
related businesses will add an estimated $150 million to Quasar's revenue and
$33 million in EBITDA for the Company's fiscal year 2010. The first group of
acquisitions are only the beginnings of the Quasar Aerospace conglomerate as we
are actively pursuing other ventures within the aerospace industry.

Atlantic Aviation, Quasar's flight training academy, is proud to announce our
latest website upgrade. We invite you to visit www.atlanticaviationinc.net. At
Atlantic Aviation Inc. students will graduate with the excellent fundamental
skills of flying, giving them an advantage to complete their goals of flying for
the airlines.

wow wtf is up with qasp? im checkin iSpoke right now.

I probably could say this to you in person (maybe should) but I'd rather do it in an open forum...if for no other reason than I'm damn proud of myself...and gosh darn it, I like the fellas here.

I'm not doing "McDougal's" anymore...

Not sure if I mentioned it, but I injured my back last July and have been out of work since then.

The sideline benefit (to the clothing retailers) is that I gained a lot of weight - was up to nearly 240 pounds!

Well, in January, I made the decision that I was going to lose the weight & improve my health.

What began as a conscious decision to eat healthy & pay closer attention to portions became an official diet on July 9, 2009.

At the time of my diet becoming official, I was down to 223...just by eating healthy.

I am now at 209!

The intermediate goal is 199 - and then I'll celebrate with a half a steak at Ruth's Chris.

The ultimate goal is to be at 180 - which is where I was at my most healthy.

Believe it or not, there *was* a time that I had six pack abs and could knock out a ten mile run like I was taking in a movie...


So, yeah, you can bring *your* McDougals...and I'll gladly have breakfast with you, my friend. Or, I can treat you to what I eat for breakfast...

Three eggs, no yolk, two pieces of very good ham, and one teaspoon of lite mayo on Sara Lee Lite whole wheat bread (90 cals two slices). It's actually pretty yummy.

***in the interest of full disclosure: I sometimes miss the yumminess of the runny yolk in my egg sammich ;)
