        The good news is that my meager portfolio is holding its own.

          2. AOB - Bought at $3.53. Closing price today was $5.00

            Update on my present positions... 10/20/05

            1. ELN - Bought at $6.88. Closing price today was $8.12

            2. HISC - Bought at .07. Closing price today was .096

            Sold AOB at $5.17 for a 46% gain. I decided to take profits because of market weakness.

            I can't beleive it. My positions were all up today in spite of the sell off in the markets.

            HISC is having a shareholders meeting in Atlanta tomorrow. Hopefully some good news will come out of it.

              I'm considering doing the same.

              Godspeed, Webs, if you're out there. I'm sure you're hitting the road for dry land as of now.

                Thanks BJ, but I'm in The Florida Panhandle. Wilma is a long ways from me.

                AOB is probably still a good one, but I'm not liking the way the market is acting. I'll get back in when things look better.

                  Here's an excellent news story with video about HISC.PK. It talks about their Cybertracker unit.






                  New Ports Tracking System Developed in Savannah
                  The Maritime Logistics Innovation Center, or MLIC, gathers technological, educational, and business resources to identify and solve the kind of problems that face our busy ports.

                  MLIC's Page Siplon describes it as "a platform for tying in academia, the resources you see around us now, small business, large business, federal and state government, all working on very specific problems that the industry's facing."

                  Like keeping track of the approximately 2,400 trucks that pass through the gates daily.

                  "I spent a lot of time going out to industry saying, you know, 'What kind of things keep you up at night?,'" said Siplon. "One of those things is, 'Hey, we need to be able to know where our assets are, to be able to visualize where they are, be able to track where they are.'"

                  That's where Homeland Integrated Security Systems comes in. The Asheville, North Carolina-based company found a unique partner in MLIC, which has access to the Port of Savannah. Using the port as a real-world laboratory, they've developed what they call the most effective global positioning system available.

                  "It tracks more frequently than any other GPS device that's out there today," said the company's Adam Clough of his Cyber Tracker product. "And what I mean by that is traditional GPS devices look for a satellite in a few seconds or multiple seconds. This does it in milliseconds."

                  The system is small and rugged with its own battery power, designed just to be thrown on the dashboard. It uses a secure cellular network to transmit GPS data. It can also transmit touch-to-talk voice data.

                  "If someone does stray off course, a dispatcher or anyone designated to the device can speak to that individual to bring them back on track," said Clough.

                  Dispatchers can use the system's software to track where trucks are, where they're going, and even email warnings if a driver goes too fast or enters a restricted area.

                  As folks at MLIC will tell you, you can never know too much about our economy's precious cargo.

                  MLIC is in Savannah on the Georgia Tech campus, and works closely with the Georgia Ports Authority. The GPA looks at all the projects the innovation center works on, including Cyber Tracker, though it has not at this point made the decision whether to implement the system.

                    HISC's shareholder meeting info failed to impress me. I'll take my profit tomorrow.

                      Hahaha!

                      The Vulcan strikes again! No, I didn't make the perfect trade, but I did get a bargain on some airline tickets. I'll found round trip tickets from Birmingham, Alabama to Paris, France on March 16th-23rd, for a grand total of $400.10 each, tax and fees included. Now all I have to do is find a bargain on a good 3 star hotel and a rental car.

                      What about stocks Vulcan?
                      My only position at the moment is ELN. This week will probably be a critical time for ELN. Maybe it'll go the right way.

                        My thread is getting boring.


                        I need to find a new angle.

                        But what???

                        Hmmm...I'll think of something.

                            Yup, I got back in. Maybe we can make some cash.
