[QUOTE=cat hater;885636]Put it in a crate! Mine shuts right up even in the middle of horny howling heat! Why do you all mention being "up all night" and "not getting any sleep". Why do you all let your cats run your life? Just crate your dang cats when you go to bed. Same as you would a crate trained dog. Our cat is 9 months old and has been crated at night EVERY night. I don't care if it stays up all night staring at the wall. The important thing is that my wife and I get to sleep. She willingly goes into the crate too, I don't have to force her. When she's in heat she won't run around the house at night, howl and knock crap over. And guess what else? When she's not in heat she won't run around the house at night and knock crap over.
...... at least shut your bedroom doors and turn on a box fan. Or just shut the cat in a far off room at night with the litter box inside. :cat:

[QUOTE=annmarieC;993067]well...ya...i was avoiding the cost of getting my Raven kitty spayed. and yep, she went into heat right on schedule. so shame on me. doh!
so will be calling the vet monday morning to figure out when it will be safe for her to get the surgery done. getting the surgery done during the heat time...ooooo, that makes me nervous. :/
so we are going to have some time to put up with this loud meowing too.
these tips are working so far on my little girl: yes, catnip helps alittle, we have two levels so she goes downstairs to do her mating skreech (luck!), she hits on the dog...distraction if nothing else :? ;), and simply spending time with her. get really comfortable with the idea of sexual impulses (get some maturity) and rub your cat down. give her the feel of at least alittle satisfaction. and im not trying to be offensive here. but it works. i gave Raven a good rub down and gave the normal amount of kisses..and now she is back to sleeping [B]quietly[/B] on the kitchen chair.
I would also, try hard to were the cat down before bed. play with toys, chase her around the house, more rub downs...[B]lots[/B] of rub downs!...lol. whatever will make her so tired she doesn't want to stay up all night looking to get laid.
good luck all :)[/QUOTE]
All you do by putting the cost off in the beginning is cost yourself more in the long run.. greater chances of cancer and other diseases cost MUCH more down the road then the cost of a spay ;)
I'm not sure where you are located, but in the US you can go to [url]www.spayusa.org[/url] if you need financial assistance.
Cat in heat!!!
My kitty (izabella ) is about 6 months old and is in heat... i have an appointment at the vet to get her spayed on monday the 26th at 730 am but in the mean time is there anything i can do to make her stop howling and rubbing against everything lol
the rub-down method worked!
Thank you, thank you, thank you for posting your tip to give cats in heat a bit of a "rub-down". Mojo was very uncomfortable so I got online to look for tips on what to do. Your post was the first that made sense to me and so I gave it a go. I basically just rubbed her belly between the back legs for about 3 minutes or so while she stood on her back legs. I spoke gently to her and let her rest her forelegs on my forearm. She is conked out on the carpet now - resting sound asleep. No more howling or crying. I feel so much better now that she's more comfortable. Great tip!:lightbulb:
I Don't Know What To Do Anymore
I've been reading this thread trying to find some answers for my cat. She's been in heat since JANUARY. Every night it's the same howling right outside my bedroom door. :( I can't take it anymore. We took her to the vet to get her spayed, but he said she's too old for such an operation. She's 18 or 19 years old, I think. This is ridiculous. :( I love my cat and feel sorry for her because she can't help it, but jeeeez, I want to punt her out the window too!

Are you sure she's truly in heat and isn't actually suffering from a health issue like hyperthyroidism? HyperT can cause cats to yowl at night. Did the vet do any blood work? If not, take her back and ask for a full senior blood panel and urinalysis.
Dementia can also result in restless, yowling cats. Leaving a night-light on helps some cats. What happens if you let her in your bedroom at night?
[QUOTE=herbal fan;601506]My young cat is in her second heat, was yowling her head off, and presenting me with her rear in a manner I found unsettling.
I gave her some catnip, and it calmed her right down! I highly recomend trying this.[/QUOTE]
I tried this and she just ended up covered in catnip, she rolled in it and now acting stupid and still in heat. Didn't help one bit lol
This is an old thread. Why are people just not getting their cats spayed and end this question?:confused:
[QUOTE=BenMax;1024635]This is an old thread. Why are people just not getting their cats spayed and end this question?:confused:[/QUOTE]
I know, easy fix, isn't it!!
Wait a minute!
You know, people who are treating others like they are dumb....duh just get your cat spayed, you are not being productive. I have had my cat spayed TWICE first at 6 months, which was botched and again at a year (at which point they removed the uterus and the ovary they though was causing her cycle to return...new vet!) And yet my cat is in heat tonight, as she is every 6 months, so I do what any of us forum users would do and I google it. What comes up? A TEN year old thread that JUST MIGHT offer me some help and support, from CAT PEOPLE which I am not, I tend to prefer dogs and horses but I love my little Skittle. I do appreciate the comments about the pressure points and will try that after I finish here. I rarely sign up and post on random forums but this one ticked me off.
If you are so pro-spay and pro-neuter (as I am) a more effective approach may be to kindly educate people, not treat them like they are stupid, you don't know who is looking for HELP nor do you understand every situation.
I rarely sign onto this site either any more but for different reasons. :( However, in MOST cases getting your cat spayed does indeed stop the behaviour. If your cat is once more in heat then may I suggest another trip to the vet to figure out why? If she is only acting this way every six months I would hesitate to say she is "in heat". Cats in heat normally cycle every few weeks if relief, mating, is not achieved or spaying not done. Spaying, as stated by my long time friends, will end that. I don't believe they intended to make people feel stupid on purpose. Maybe their intent was interpreted wrongly? Spaying is a simple fix.
I too have a couple of girls who "act" as if they are in heat at certain times of the year. They aren't. They are just overly affectionate in the spring and again in the fall. Weather fluctuations seem to affect their behaviour at those times.
Agreeing with 14+Kitties....
Our Miss Mitten was dumped on our farm as a 6 month old and fortunately we were able to catch her and have her spayed so that she could be adopted into our household.
During the heat of summer and the very cold months of winter she will sleep indoors, but in spring and fall she is better off spending her nights in the sun room where she can yell and carry on while watching stray cats and raccoons out of the big windows. She just tends to be a bit nutty in spring and fall, what can I say...;) She will even try to scratch on the window glass. I think she is yelling at the coons to get their fat butts off of her property. LOL
My female was a stray. I was feeding her on the porch with the intention of bringing her in. I knew she had one litter which she abandoned or they died after a couple weeks. I never could find them.
My plan was to crate her, take her to the vet, have her spayed, shots, treated for fleas and worms and then bring her in because I have a dog and another cat (neutered tom).
Then one day I noticed her bleeding. My neighbor informed me she "left a mess" in his yard. I looked and it was fetus. I immediately took her inside and put her in my bedroom because my tom wanted to attack her and called the vet. She had another miscarriage on my bed.
Long story short. I did take her to the vet. $400 later it was determined she had no more kittens and they could not give her shots or spay her at that time. They did treat for fleas and worms.
Well, it was fall so I figured she wouldn't come back into heat any time soon. Since I work, it's hard to get to the vet. I did not know about the artificial light disrupting heat cycles.
She's in heat. What I do to minimize the yowling is just keep her in the bedroom all the time. The confinement seems to tone it down a lot. I'm in there at night and since I am now the object of her total devotion, she only has sporadic yowling sessions and I am able to get some sleep.
She hates my other cat and the feeling is mutual so no help there. Plus I neutered him very young and I don't think he has a clue what to do. Too bad. :)
My advice is never put off tomorrow what you can do today. A cat in heat is really no fun for you or her.
My young cat just came into heat, and it's holiday time and most places will be closed, so we can't spay her. On top of that it is apparently dangerous to do so during heat?.. I heard there is some hormone-type medication for this to at leat wait till it's over and spay her. Has anyone heard about it?
p.s what are 'artificial light disrupting heat cycles'? google doesn't help.
my cats...
my cats are both in heat at the same time all the time and putting butter on them helps...because they have to clean themselfs you should try it b4 you go to bed you will get a good nights rest trust me:lightbulb:
Cat that can't be spayed - what to do when she's in heat?
I've got an eight month old cat, John (yes, she's a girl) who can't be spayed because of a heart murmur - the vet says she can't have an anaesthetic.
Anyway, just now she's showing signs of her first heat cycle - the rolling around and mewling and I'm looking everywhere for tips on how to make it easier for her - while she's in pretty good general health I don't want to add to her stress levels with her condition.
Any tips?
I've got an eight month old cat, John (yes, she's a girl) who can't be spayed because of a heart murmur - the vet says she can't have an anaesthetic.[/quote]
Hi glowa. Love John's name, that's hilarious!
Do you know the nature of the heart murmur? Has an echocardiogram ever been done? I think whether a cat can undergo general anesthesia has more to do with the type and severity of the heart condition (which is best diagnosed with an echo) rather then just the mere presence of a murmur (which some cats eventually outgrow anyway). It's great that your vet is cautious, but maybe he can also help you get to the bottom of the murmur. My almost 19 yr old cat has cardiomyopathy and he had a full dental done at 15 with no problems.
Thanks for the reply - glad you like her name, people seem to be divided into thinking it's great or thinking it's grade one animal abuse!
Anyway, her murmur is a grade 4. When I got her (and her sister, Bob) I was all responsible, waiting until they were 12 weeks old, and booking them in for their shots and to be spayed and then found out about John's murmur. At the time they said grade 5, but it looks like one 'grade's worth' might have been the sort that they grow out of as very young kittens (when something hasn't fused or whatever). But she's left with quite a severe one, and while she hasn't had the full scans - they're just prohibitively expensive, and not covered by pet insurance - she's had a good external work up by the cardiologist and they're not happy to operate on her as she is.
So, for the moment I'm stuck with a sexually frustrated teenage cat - not to mention Bob, who [I]has[/I] been spayed and has no idea what's going on with her sister!
[QUOTE=glowa;1034848]But she's left with quite a severe one, and while she hasn't had the full scans - they're just prohibitively expensive, [/quote]
I know, it's crazy!! I've had 3 echos done on my guy (Aztec), and it just about killed me. The good thing was that it helped the vets figure out what meds would be most useful (he's on Atenolol) and at his last echo, there was noticeable improvement in blood flow through his heart. Which was why he got the go-ahead to have the dental done. So maybe in the future it can be an option for John? I think it's stupid that it's not covered by insurance.
[QUOTE=glowa;1034848]So, for the moment I'm stuck with a sexually frustrated teenage cat [/QUOTE]
Oh how I feel your pain! One of my other cats went into heat 3 times after she had her kittens (trapped her as a pregnant feral). It was a nightmare for everyone in the house (most especially Aztec, who was the very perplexed target of her "affections").
Good luck with John!
Fertile female cat in heat...
my cat Tonali has a heart valve defect/murmur and cannot be spayed... she had an echo to confirm it... no meds needed so far, but visits to the vet every 6 months to monitor the condition.
The vet told me that her chances would 50-50...she may not wake up.
So four times a year, i must put up with it...
Her heat periods last 7 to 10 days...
The noise of her meowing doesn't really bother me, but sometimes i am concerned the neighbors can hear her, so i keep the radio on, day and night...
All my other cats are spayed/neutered, but when ever Tonali gets in heat, I just make sure she gets a lot of food... sleeps better on a full tummy!
I also play with her and entertain her the best i can...
She likes the laser pointer toy i get at the dollar store!
I tried earplugs, but it made my cat's ears sore.
your cat in heat
My cat Tonali is the only cat I have that is not sterelised, she has a heart murmur, had an echo done, and according to the vet, putting her under to operate her would be a 50-50 chance...
So I have to put up with her being in heat 4 times per year...
Her heat periods last between 10 to 15 days...
Yes it can be annoying, but when it happens, i try to play with her more than usual, but she is not that interested. I find that brushing her helps a bit; she is long haired and enjoys it. She also calms down when i sit with her and lay guitar and sing softly to her, if you are not a musician, perhaps some soft soothing classical music could help?
Since your cat will be sterelised soon, it is only a matter of time.
Cat in Heat
Ok...sorry but whoever says that a cats heat cycle is 3-4 days needs to put down the crack pipe.
But I have a solution.....
Step 1) Soften some margarine or butter in a dish.
Step 2) Put butter between every toe you can find on your cat....
Step 3) Go jump into bed and enjoy a good night's sleep.
Your cat will spend the rest of the night licking the butter from between it's toes and after the job will be exhausted from the task. Don't be surprised if she is snoring before you get into bed.
After I came up with this solution.... Shelly said...."Ya know... you're not as dumb as you look":lightbulb:
Just so you know...this is an old post and as much as some posters tick you off...it's not worth responding to Cat hater....they haven't been back since 2010...
Theta waves are very effective for this. Here is a youtube link for theta waves in nature sounds.
I play this when my cats are being especially annoying.
MissManda - re your 19 year old cat - it may not be in heat - my 19 year old gets very stressed as is starting to go deaf and NEEDS to be bale to find me and be reassured with loads of gently pats and soothing voice as she simply can no longer hear me as well, so she looses me. If i am outside she cant recognise which direction i am calling to her from due to one ear being not working as well - she simply calls for reassurance to KNOW where you are if she cannot see or hear you properly, so she doesnt feel so lost. I now have a box with soft pillow and blanket for the old girl to sleep on in my room and give her gentle pat each time i go past it so she is reassured and as SOON as I hear her call for me I stand where she can see where i am and be reassured she hasnt been abandoned. Very important at this age to pander to them a bit and reassure them that all is well. Esp as she is calling at your bedroom door and NOT rushing out of the house calling would suggest she feels she's lost you somehow and cant find you... rather than being on heat
interestingly she never used to speak at all until a year ago - now then neighbours think i have two boys in the house - with her calling for me from time to time if she cant see me, and the young one having just come into season.... lol
my young one is my first experience of cat in heat!!! boy oh boy!!! should have named her Helen (after Helen of Troy) with all the boys in the neighbourhood suddenly visiting!!!!! Is driving me a bit nuts BUT BUT BUT I have found this helpful.... she does go outside - but with me as a permanent chaperone - and any WIFF of a boy being there, or her calling them and they turn up, then she gets carted back inside and popped into the garage straight away with lots of windows and light and food and cat litter tray and a car to sit on... and the door closed firmly behind me - so she can still have chit chats to the ones outside but not get to them - after a bit they loose interest and she calms down a bit - I also find if i give her gentle taps with my finger tips where her tail meets her back then she forgets about the toms en route to the garage so is quite happy once she gets there. Doing this has also given me some sanity back!!!! I confess I am LOVING when she is asleep!!!!!!:sleepy::angel::lovestruck: Having her away in the gge also means the old girl CAN be outside when she wants too.
She is only in there for short periods of time so i can have the outside door open for the old puss to be able to come in and out. I am having to save to get her speyed as it is not free here and confess the idea of having her operated on terrifies me.
Getting a bit had it with toms coming inside and spraying!:mad: suggestions here would be great - need to have a door open for the old girl to come in and out and as it is too hot over here to keep them closed - but THAT means i have to guard the door and that is stressful and doesnt get anything done that I need to. ALSO they are constantly spraying on the vege garden which is disgusing so ideas there would be great also thanksxx
i like what you said also sugarcatmom about leaving a night light on - i do this for my elderly cat and has made a huge difference at night for her since i started a few year ago - i have one in the room with the litter tray and one in the bedroom - is still dark enough for me to sleep but light enough for her not to fall or mis calculate when she is jumping up to her bed. The food and water is where a street light gives enough light through the studio for her to negotiate that with no stress whatsoever - just has made things so much easier for her.
interested to see you also found it helpful for your old one
Several state's also have low income spay and neuter clinic. For instance, my state (Minnesota) has MN Snap: [url]http://www.mnsnap.org/[/url]
So, anyone will an unfixed animal should look into whether their state has a program like this :)
This link has a list of organizations that help people get vet care for their pets
when they can't afford to pay for a visit to the vet. This has organizations in most of the states

Use the tips presented here to streamline the way you separate color for all kinds of garment graphics.
Garment screen printers continue to feel increasing pressure from clients to turn jobs around in record time. While these demands aren't too tough to meet when the print runs involve one color, the heat is definitely on for shops that handle multicolor and process-color work. Time is of the essence, which means you need to be able to crank out good separations without delay—separations that are production-friendly and compatible with your entire workflow. This discussion focuses on three effective ways to do just that.
The methods described below are fast because they essentially do a big chunk of the work for you. They can make the difference between making or missing a deadline.
A little prep work goes a long way
Can you make the image more separation-friendly by breaking it up into colors? Herding color hues together—also known as color crunching—can take a bit of time up front, but it will pay off significantly when it comes time to separate the design. You'll see that the colors will flow much better into the proper channels that you have selected.
Color crunching can be as simple as corralling the hues that are similar in an image (Figure 1) and then using the Color Range tool in Adobe Photoshop to isolate those colors and save them in an extra alpha channel. Once you have this extra channel, you can add to it or adjust it to include or exclude areas of the image that you wish to color-combine. In the example shown in Figure 1, it was a matter of combining all of the warm and cool colors into red or blue hues so the graphic could be separated onto two screens instead of six.
Here, color-combining involved selecting from the alpha channel, creating an extra layer, and filling the new layer with the color from the selection. This layer was then color-merged using layer-blending modes to adjust it, all the while considering the original image underneath. The resulting layer was then bumped down in opacity so that it would blend well with the original image (Figure 2).

Anybody else shares this view ? Most certainly! We're looking at all these exciting technologies (gpu, cell, etc.) but all these programming difficulties are definitely holding us back. A standardised solution like mpi would be great. There is a second outcome though - one of the manufacturers gets a virtual monopoly. (and my guess is it will be the manufacturer with the latest chip technology and closest integration with the processor ;-) -- Mattijs Janssens

Last month, Raiders G.M. Reggie McKenzie told Pro Football Talk there will be competition at the quarterback position. Which could open the door for Terrelle Pryor.
And close it for Carson Palmer.
With a $13 million base salary in 2013, the cap-strapped Raiders will have a hard time keeping Palmer at that level of pay, unless he's the clear-cut starter.
"Not sure what's going to happen," Palmer told Paul Gutierrez of CSNBayArea.com via email. "Would love to be back in Oakland and compete."
To make that happen, Palmer may have to take less money. Maybe a lot less money.
And while he may not be willing to do that, the real question is whether the Raiders will be offering Palmer more than what another team would offer. Technically, Palmer isn't supposed to know that while still under contract with the Raiders.
As a practical matter, Palmer's agent will know what's behind Door No. 2 before having to decide on whether to take a reduced offer from the Raiders.

Eye and Ear Celebrates the Opening of New Surgical, Outpatient Center in Longwood/Mission Hill October 31, 2012 Boston (Oct. 31, 2012) -- Massachusetts Eye and Ear, along with the Beal Companies, LLP, today celebrated the grand opening of its new outpatient surgical facility at 800 Huntington Avenue in the Longwood/Mission Hill area of Boston. The location will provide access to Mass. Eye and Ear's world-class physicians and surgeons, and outpatient services. The facility is expected to open to patients in November. Preparing to cut the ribbon at the grand opening of the new facility (pictured L to R): Peter Longley, Director of Operations, Tsoi/Kobus & Associates; Peter Meade, Director, Boston Redevelopment Authority; John Fernandez, President & CEO, Mass. Eye and Ear; Dr. Joan Miller, Mass. Eye and Ear Chief of Ophthalmology & Harvard Medical School Chair of Ophthalmology; Robert Beal, President, The Beal Companies, LLP; Michael Ross, Boston City Council, District 8; Wyc Grousbeck, Chairman of the Board, Mass. Eye and Ear; and Jeffrey Sanchez, Mass. State Representative. Also participating in the celebration was Angus Leary, Chief Operating Officer, Northeast, Suffolk Construction. (Photo by Eric Antoniou Photography) The 90,000-square-foot state-of-the-art facility, which is owned and was developed by The Beal Companies, houses four operating rooms and allows easy and comfortable access for patients with convenient parking. The building is also home to the most advanced ophthalmology (eye care) clinical space and physician offices. Ear, nose and throat services will be added in the future. Designed by architects at Tsoi/Kobus & Associates, the facility creates a welcoming environment for patients and staff, with special considerations for those with visual impairment. The building's interior includes high-contrast colors on walls and furnishings to facilitate way-finding for visually impaired patients. Sustainable and environmentally friendly materials were used in the building's construction. The floor plan also maximizes access to daylight by locating public waiting rooms, corridors and staff lounges near exterior windows. Mass. Eye and Ear is partnering with Mass. Art to showcase an art exhibit that will remain at the Longwood site for the next several months. The location includes an optical shop on the first floor, where Mass. Eye and Ear opticians will provide services. Inventory will include eyeglasses for both adults and children. The first floor also includes a coffee shop. Both resources are open to Mass. Eye and Ear patients and to members of the community. "Massachusetts Eye and Ear has a long history of excellent clinical care and innovative research," said Mayor Thomas M. Menino. "Today I applaud this great institution for working closely with the Mission Hill neighborhood to bring critical specialized services to the community." "The opening of our new outpatient surgical facility means we'll be able to provide more access to our specialized care for those who need our services," said John Fernandez, President and CEO of Mass. Eye and Ear. We're creating good healthcare jobs and bringing world-class Mass. Eye and Ear care to this community. We're looking forward to collaborating with neighboring hospitals in the Longwood area to provide top-notch patient care and advance clinical research initiatives." "We're delighted to have been able to work with Mass. Eye and Ear and the community to build a facility such as this, which is so important to the City of Boston," said Robert L. Beal, President of The Beal Companies. About Massachusetts Eye and Ear Founded in 1824, Massachusetts Eye and Ear Infirmary is an independent specialty hospital providing patient care for disorders of the eye, ear, nose, throat, head and neck. Mass. Eye and Ear is an international leader in Ophthalmology and Otolaryngology research and a teaching partner of Harvard Medical School. Under the direction of Mass.

If you told someone you expected a tiny company with virtually no assets and income to go from being worth pennies per share to having a market value of more than $2 billion, they'd probably think you were drunk or high.
That kind of fantastic story is the stuff of spam e-mails sent by pump-and-dump scammers, or the realm of tiny newsletters — sometimes in cahoots with stock touts — where seemingly every penny stock is a rocket ship ready to launch.
But it's also precisely what happened last week with Medbox Inc., US:MDBX , a company that makes medical-marijuana dispensing machines, which went on a fantastic voyage after it caught a mention in a MarketWatch story on how investors might participate in the expanding legalized pot trade.
Shares surged from about $4 to $215 last week — giving the company a market capitalization of more than $2.25 billion — before company executives played the buzzkill and made a statement noting that the price was soaring more because of the stock's small float than the company's "present business economics."
The stock quickly fell back to $100, and has since been cut in half again, a trend that is likely to repeat itself over and over until the share price is more reflective of its fair-market value. That won't be much for a company that will be lucky to break $5 million in sales this calendar year.
While that may be the $2.75-$3.50 range the stock was trading in prior to the MarketWatch mention, it could also be closer to the stock's 52-week low of three cents per share.
Beyond the marijuana connection that fired up the public's imagination, what fascinates investors about Medbox is that it is the rare penny stock that blew up into something where lucky buyers may have struck it rich.
That's where the lessons are for investors who are tripping over this story.
There are thousands of companies like Medbox, tiny firms that have gone public but have little to no trading action on an ordinary day. In the old days, investors would have said Medbox traded on the "pink sheets," a low-tech open marketplace for companies that did not require participants to be registered with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission.
Today, it trades on what is known as "OTC Pink," where the higher level of trading efficiency makes a move like the one seen last week possible. The OTC Pink marketplace has no financial standards or reporting requirements, though it does categorize stocks by the level and timeliness of the information they make available to investors.
Dig into the accountant's statement in Medbox's most recent financials, filed Nov. 1, and you will find that "Management has elected to omit substantially all of the disclosures required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America."
Management isn't slacking or doing anything nefarious — though the accounting statement rightly recognizes that "if the omitted disclosures were included … they might influence the user's conclusions about the company's financial position." It's just doing the same thing as thousands of other small, up-and-coming (or down-and failing) companies trying to minimize their regulatory burdens as they work their way into the mainstream of Corporate America.
For average investors, however, the realm of OTC Pink or its sister, the OTCQB — where companies must be registered with the SEC or a U.S. regulatory agency but where there are no financial or qualitative standards for being listed — is the Wild, Wild West.
It's the territory of fantastic stories of companies supposedly destined to be America's next great financial success. It is the place where a stock tout can easily acquire a lot of shares, and then spend money to promote the company to unsuspecting investors whose purchases wind up fueling the promoter's gains.
Just as Medbox officials had nothing to do with MarketWatch editors deciding to pursue the story on investing in legalized marijuana sales, many stock touts simply act on their own, with corporate executives only figuring out what happened after their shares have popped.
The vast majority of these companies have some ardent supporters and believers, but limited long-term prospects. They have a small float and low trading volumes, which means they can pop when there is a sudden spike in demand, but which increases the risk that an investor paying a heightened price to get in will see the bottom drop out when the news high starts to fade.
It's the realm of traders and stock jockeys hoping to turn a penny into a nickel before the ride ends.
Still, it's a very appealing sell to ordinary investors who have seen the major stock markets struggle for years now and who are tired of risking about $90 per share on a giant like ExxonMobil XOM, -2.34% when they just received some pitch on something like Striker Oil & Gas SOIS, +900.00% . That penny stock, which I wrote about several years ago after a big tout job, had its post-promotional pop, then calmed down; today, it is a less-than-a-penny stock, a common outcome for these issues. (See my column on Striker: Newsletters boost for tiny oil-and-gas stock strikes out.)
Throwing money into these stocks is, for most investors, an exercise in futility. They don't recognize that they are the ones those traders and sharpies are getting their nickels from.
"People go into penny stocks and a lot of these small companies figuring that if they throw money into 10 of these things, they will hit one that will make it all worthwhile," said Charles Rotblut, editor of AAII Journal, the publication of the American Association of Individual Investors. "The problem is that the successes aren't 1-in-10, they're more like 1-in-100."
Consider the case of another "sin stock" that was having some interesting price action last week around the same time as Medbox.
Drinks Americas Holdings DKAM, +0.00% — which I picked solely for having some of the same vice appeal as a marijuana distribution company — develops and distributes alcoholic premium beverages, and is involved in everything from Ed Hardy Silver Tequila and Willie Nelson's Old Whiskey River Bourbon to Kid Rock's American Badass Beer. It trades on the OTCQB, and last week hit a 52-week low before announcing a tequila deal that popped the stock from roughly 10 cents per share to nearly 20 cents on about three times its normal trading volume.
This week, as Medbox was coming down from its high, Drinks Americas was sobering up to a stock price closer to 13 cents.
That's a common arc for a penny stock — no matter how legitimate the company — when there's news.
Drinks Americas has a balance sheet that looks a lot better than Medbox's, but its news was nothing compared to being featured in a MarketWatch story hinting that it was a way to play a business/industry that has people, well, buzzing.
For investors trying to catch the buzz on stocks like these, ask yourself what you know and when you know it; otherwise you buy into the frenzy and, almost certainly, get the worst of it.
Said Rotblut: "It doesn't matter if you read an article on MarketWatch or you got some e-mail that didn't get caught in your spam filter, with these thinly traded stocks you need to think about who else knew about these opportunities first, because if you aren't one of the first people to act, you're going to be the one left holding the hot potato."

Marvel vs. Capcom 2 – Short Move List
PlayStation 3
Short Move List by CWall / Nightcrawler86
Version: 1.2 | Updated: 11/08/05
for PlayStation2
by The Wall Brothers
Version 1.1
November 8, 2005
Copyright (c) 2003-2005 Christian Wall
Copyright (c) 2003-2005 Christopher Wall
Unlike the other movelists at GameFAQs, this one is formatted for printing.
It's very compact, only containing the movelists for all characters. We
strongly recommend you to print this guide, which is only seven pages long.
If you do, make sure that the font is set to Courier New and that the size
of the text isn't larger than ten.
So I was playing Marvel vs. Capcom 2 the other day, and was really only
fooling around, experimenting with different character combinations. Then I
noticed how irritating it was not having a proper in-game movelist to
consult while playing. Printing the huge movelists at GameFAQs felt pretty
unnecessary so I came up with an idea and suggested it to my brother
Christopher, who is experienced in writing movelists for fighting games.
That he and I would write a complete movelist for all characters in Marvel
vs. Capcom 2 for players to be able to consult whenever they need to know
a character's complete move-set.
So now we're finished. This is a movelist which only contains the necessary
information, formatted in a printer friendly document. Heed our warning,
though. You need to have some basic knowledge of the game mechanics to fully
appreciate this FAQ. We advice you to seek this knowledge in either the
manual or Kao Megura's marvellous FAQ at GameFAQs.com. Be sure to thoroughly
read the legend, comprehensively written by my brother, before using the
movelist. It's best to have this legend at hand while reading the movelist.
We hope that you will find our FAQ useful and we wish you happy reading.
-- Christian
In each of the characters' movelists you'll find the same information. First
off we have the name and command of each Special Move and Hyper Combo of the
character. Nothing hard to understand, just look at the Command Shortenings
below and you'll be able to use them.
Beside the name and command of the moves you'll see a lower-case letter
written in brackets. This is a small explanation of the nature of the move
in question. For example you'll see a (p) beside the classic Hado-Ken move.
This simply states that the move is a projectile one. But more about that
in the Explanation Shortenings below. If there are two different letters
in the same brackets it means that the move fits into both groups of moves.
Furthermore you'll sometimes see another letter to the right of the move.
That one states in which Assist Type the move in question can be made as an
Variable Assist or Variable Combination. The letter is an upper-case one and
it is either A, for the Alpha Assist Type (1st); B, for the Beta Assist Type
(2nd); or G, for the Gamma Assist Type (3rd). We won't state which moves
become the Variable Counters for each assist type. If you need to find that
information you can use my own Assist Types FAQ on GameFAQs.com.
"How will I know if a move is a Special Move or a Hyper Combo?" you might
ask yourself. Simple, the Special Moves are always the ones written first;
the Hyper Combos start off where you see three lines in a row. And do not
fear if you see a regular move amongst the Special Moves for some
characters, the reason for this is simply that the character who uses the
regular attack has a Variable Assist in one or more of his/her Assist Types.
P: Any punch button (S or T in the default controller setting)
PP: Both punch buttons (S+T or the R1 in the default controller setting)
LP: The light punch (S in the default controller setting)
MP: The mid-damage punch (is performed as the second attack if you push S
twice in a row during a match)
HP: The heavy punch (T in the default controller setting)
K: Any kick button (X or O in the default controller setting)
KK: Both kick buttons (X+O or the R2 in the default controller setting)
LK: The light kick (X in the default controller setting)
MK: The mid-damage kick (is performed as the second attack if you push X
twice in a row during a match)
HK: The heavy kick (O in the default controller setting)
N/A: This means that the move only is available for usage in a Variable
Assist or Variable Counter, thus isn't available when you're using the
character yourself
c: Hold down the direction or button that is stated after the letter
for a short while, commonly known as a charge
r: Press the button rapidly
taunt: The taunt button (select in the default controller setting)
I'll write a comma (,) if you are to push the direction right after each-
I'll write a plus (+) if you shall push the two buttons together.
I'll write a slash (/) if you can use either one of the two buttons the
slash separates.
I'll write all direction in lower-case letters. For example: f=forward.
Besides ordinary directions there are special ones. The last direction
in such a series directions should be pressed simultaneously with a kick,
a punch or a taunt.
qf: Quarter-circle forward. Press the control pad down, down-forward and
forward. Ryu's hado-ken move is an example of this command where a
punch follows.
qb: Same as with quarter-circle forward but the move goes backwards instead.
sf: Forward, down, down-forward. The most famous move using this combination
is probably Ryu's Shoryu-Ken (hence the name).
sb: Backward, down, down-backward.
hf: Half-circle forward. Backward, down-backward, down, down-forward,
hb: Half-circle backward. Forward, down-forward, down, down-backward,
360: Rotate the control pad.
(p): The move is a projectile one. It is long-ranged but your character
won't move during the execution of it. For example Ryu's Hado-Ken.
(a-a): The move works as an anti-air attack. The move will hurt opponents
above the attacker.
(d): The move is a dashing move. The move is more or less long-ranged, but
this time the attacker will move forward whilst performing it.
(t): The move works as a throw. Often you have to be close to the opponent
to perform the move.
(c): The move is a capture type move.
(co): The move is a counter. Your opponent has to strike you for it to work.
(a): The move can ALSO be performed while jumping.
(ax): The move can ONLY be performed while jumping.
(f): The move makes the character fly. Perform it once more to ground the
(tg): The move uses up three Hyper Combo gauges, when executed.
(vb): The move requires that you press various buttons to execute damage.
(n): The move is a normal move. The character won't move at all nor send any
flying objects of any kind whilst performing the move.
(h): The move heals another character, always a Variable Assist.
(pu): The move causes another character's power to increase, always a
Variable Assist.
(du): The move causes another character's defence to increase, always a
Variable Assist.
(w): The move teleports (warps) your character.
(s): The move doesn't fit into any of the other groups. Sometimes we'll
specify what happens.

HANG TIME PLAYOFF HEADQUARTERS — That's more like it.
What we saw from the Memphis Grizzlies in their Game 2 win over the Los Angeles Clippers is the Grind House style their fans have become accustomed to and playoff fans everywhere demand from the grimiest team in the league.
They pushed the Clippers around again last night, but they didn't let up this time (making sure they did not repeat their sins from Sunday night's epic Game 1 failure) and evened their series at 1-1.
A little inspiration always helps. And Grizzlies coach Lionel Hollins provided exactly that before the game. More from Ronald Tillery of the Comercial Appeal:
With their leader wearing the championship ring he won as a member of the 1977 Portland Trail Blazers, the Grizzlies delivered an inspired performance — this time, over four quarters — and left with a 105-98 Game 2 victory over the Los Angeles Clippers Wednesday night in FedExForum.
Hollins said he simply found the ring after misplacing it and wore the piece of jewelry with no intent to send a message. But players noticed.
"He did it (won a title) in his second year," Griz guard O.J. Mayo said. "Why can't we?"
Either way, Memphis evened its Western Conference first-round playoff matchup at 1-1. The best-of-seven series resumes Saturday for Game 3 in the Staples Center.
"We had great focus from start to finish," Griz guard Tony Allen said. "They (the Clippers) came in here and took care of business. We just need to have that same mentality on the road."
After blowing a 27-point lead in Game 1, the Griz knew they couldn't afford to go down 0-2 with at least two road games in front of them. Instead of tightening up in the fourth quarter like they did Sunday, the Griz were the aggressors.
They dove on the court, increased defensive pressure on Clippers point man Chris Paul and made clutch baskets.
No one made more of those clutch baskets than Mayo, whose work off the bench last night showcased all of things Mayo is capable of as one of the true sixth-man game-changers in these playoffs (along with James Harden, Louis Williams and Jason Terry).
Mayo scored 10 of his 20 points in the fourth quarter, took the challenge of trying to lock down Paul on the defensive end and played with the kind of energy and understanding of the moment that Hollins has demanded from him since taking over the team.
Mayo's a triple threat offensively. He can not only shoot from distance, but has a polished mid-range game and is strong enough and athletic enough to finish at the rim in traffic against bigs. Sure, his shot selection is suspect at times, but what sixth man isn't known for launching an ill-advised shot here and there?
Toss in the fact that Mayo is a good enough defender to guard point guards, shooting guards and plenty of the league's starting small forwards, and you have a player capable of impacting games in ways that a select few reserves can. He was all over Paul defensively in the fourth quarter, challenging one of the league's premier crunch time performers every step of the way.
Even more impressive from Mayo, who is averaging 18.5 points in the series, is that shouldered the blame for the Grizzlies surrendering that big Game 1 lead. He made sure it didn't happen again and kept the Grizzlies from going to Los Angeles with a chance to steal home court advantage back.

DETROIT - In the nearly two months that Mike Duggan has been Detroit's mayor, he's met with President Barack Obama, public bus riders, city workers and anyone who will listen to his message that the city is changing — this time for the better.
Duggan said Wednesday night during his first State of the City address that he and other elected officials are addressing blight, unemployment, crime, poor public transportation, snow removal and many of Detroit's other problems.
View: Duggan's State of the City speech outline
"You've seen us take on these issues calmly and deal with them honestly," he said. "The change has started and the change in Detroit is real."
The 45-minute address was the first such speech since Detroit's finances fell under control of state-appointed emergency manager Kevyn Orr and the city was allowed to enter bankruptcy.
"The question I get now, almost everyday somebody asks me: 'Aren't you discouraged?'" Duggan told several hundred people in a packed City Hall auditorium. "'You're the mayor of a city that's in bankruptcy. You don't have control of your own destiny. And of course, you're not really the mayor. The emergency manager is in charge.'"
But Duggan said he is working with Orr, even though he is not a fan of the arrangement.
Detroit is going through the largest municipal bankruptcy in U.S. history, and Duggan's address came less than a week after Orr filed his plan to pay creditors while providing money for city services and improvements in the coming years.
The mayor's power is restricted. Most of the power once exclusive to the mayor's office now resides with Orr, who has complete control over all city finances, how much is spent and what the money is spent on. A deal with Orr gives Duggan control over day-to-day functions of city government.
"I had a choice to make," Duggan said. "And that was: Should I take responsibility for the city services that are there, do the best I can and prepare for the most smooth transition as possible Oct. 1 when the emergency manager leaves, or should I take the politically easier way and criticize him for the next nine months? I really felt the people ... were going to be better served if we put aside our differences and sat down and try to work professionally."
Orr has said Detroit should exit bankruptcy this year. His 18-month contract ends in the fall and control could return to elected officials, although a transition board could be put in place when the emergency manager exits.
His blueprint for Detroit's restructuring and debt removal calls for the city to spend $1.5 billion over 10 years to remove blighted properties, upgrade public-safety equipment and technology and make other improvements.
Duggan, a former medical center chief, was elected in November. Blight removal and demolition of what could be 70,000 or more vacant houses and other buildings are under his control per the deal with Orr. Unlike his predecessors, Duggan will take on the monumental task with millions of dollars in focused support from the federal government and millions more set aside from bills the city won't be paying to creditors during its historic bankruptcy.
About $500 million of the $1.5 billion in Orr's plan would be used to knock down up to 450 decaying, abandoned properties each week. The U.S. government also announced in September that it would direct more than $100 million in grants to help Detroit tear down vacant buildings and spur job growth.
Duggan announced Wednesday that "strategic demolition" of some fire-damaged vacant homes will begin within 30 days, with the work being paid for using $20 million in an unused escrow fund earmarked for burned houses.
"If you drive through most of the neighborhoods today, you wouldn't know there was a national recovery," he said. "People in this community see parts of the country doing well and even parts of the city doing well and others are left behind."
Other highlights from his speech included:
— The city will start filing lawsuits against property owners who fail to take care of their homes.
— It's buying 15 new ambulances and plans to hire 70 emergency medical service workers.
— It's asked U.S. Transportation officials to move quickly on the city's need for new public buses.
Barbara Cosby, a retired Detroit Medical Center worker, said she was encouraged by what Duggan had to say.
"I see that there's going to probably be a change and that's what I'm looking for," said Cosby.
Duggan was able to touch on all the real issues that Detroit residents "have been living with and dealing with day in and day out," said Sheila Cockrel, a former Detroit councilwoman and founder of a government relations advocacy firm.

Hanoi is the capital city of Vietnam and a very different experience to that which you'll find in Ho Chi Minh City. This northern, and most cosmopolitan, city was less affected by the war while some cultural influences from China are noticeable. It's an excellent base to explore Hanoi's interesting and traditional countryside, or for a trip to Halong Bay.

Escape from the busy capital and take a short cruise to the Gulf of Tonkin, and visit its labyrinth of 1,600 spectacular islands and breathtaking limestone pinnacles. This designated World Heritage Site is a place of outstanding scenic beauty and a must on every Vietnam visit. There are numerous outlets offering short cruises of Halong Bay including transfers (3-4 hours) to Halong Harbor. On board a traditional junk boat you will be able to see the greatest of Halong's wonders, visit some caves, swim in forgotten bays, and explore some of the islands.
The Cuc Phuong National Park is 120km southwest of Hanoi. It's the oldest National Park in Vietnam, and boasts enchanting scenery, a rich eco-system, and valuable archaeological vestiges. I would suggest an overnight stay — on the first day, visiting the Endangered Primates Rescue Center and, after lunch, check in for one night at the National Park Head Quarter's Guesthouse. In the afternoon, discover the Park's flora and fauna, and visit the 1,000 year-old sequoia tree, and the cave of Prehistoric Man. After breakfast, leave the Cuc Phuong to visit Kenh Ga — take a boat trip along Hoang Long River through rice fields and karsts limestone mountains and enjoy the beauty of this natural landscape. Later you can visit Kenh Ga Hot spring and Van Trinh Cave, before returning to Hanoi after lunch.
An alternative to Cuc Phuong National Park is to head back to Hanoi in the afternoon and join a special cooking class at the Hoa Sua Cooking School, or The Hoa Sua restaurant - part of a training school where disadvantaged Vietnamese children and teens are educated in cooking and restaurant skills. The cooking teachers bring their excellent skills to you in a fun environment and they speak good English. After your class, you can taste the dishes you have prepared.
The art of water puppetry is a North Vietnamese tradition which originated in the villages of the Red River Delta area, and dates back to the 11th century. The shows here are performed in a waist-deep pool, and the puppets are made out of wood, and then lacquered. Under the water large rods support the puppets, which are used by the puppeteer hidden behind a screen. The puppets appear to perform over the water depicting traditional legends and historical tales.
Take a drive to Duong Lam's ancient village, 50km west of Hanoi on the north Red River Delta. In this typical rural village you will find some well-preserved hundred-year-old houses. Visit the hamlet of Mong Phu, with its intact village entrance gate and temple. Experience Vietnamese farming life and stop at the two biggest ancient houses, built 200-400 years ago. Continue to Ngo Quyen and the Phung Hung Temple and Mia Pagoda, built in the 15th century and featuring a collection of 287 statues of various materials, before you head back to Hanoi.
Thanh Chuong Palace is a 50-minute drive from Hanoi and is the home and studio of one of the most celebrated painters in Vietnam. Explore Thanh Chuong's studio, filled with antiques the artist has painstakingly collected over the course of his life. Ceramics, statues, art, and sculptures fill the awe-inspiring 'House of the Auspicious Clouds.' Surrounding the structure is a perfectly-preserved 100-year old stilt house from the Muong hill tribe, a simple earthen house, and other antique structures, which offer fascinating insight into Vietnam's cultural legacy.
Walk through the Old Quarter, past the old O Quan Chuong east gate to Thanh Ha wet market. Along the way you will find many delicacies and strange food items on display — this busy market is crammed full with Vietnamese culture. Continue through to Dong Xuan market to sample some local treats, such as 'pho tiu' and 'bun dau,' or stroll up 'food alley' to see other dishes on offer. Continue to Hang Than Street to see the ceremonial cake stalls and taste French-influenced desserts before you return back to the Old Quarter, via Hang Cot Street, to check out the specially treated seasonal fruits.
This prison was used by French colonists during the Vietnam America war for political prisoners. Most of the prison was demolished in the mid 1990s; however a small portion remains and is now a museum. Whilst the museum depicts that the inmates were well treated, memoirs and journals from past inmates suggest otherwise. Take a haunting tour through the museum, which amongst many artifacts, shows the interrogation room and guillotine room!
If you'd prefer an out-of-town itinerary for day 2, depart in the early morning and take a two-hour drive through rural countryside to Hoa Lu, Vietnam's first capital. Mount your bike and cycle to the Dinh and Le temples dedicated to King Dinh Tien Hoang and King Le Dai Hanh (968-1009). Continue cycling for one hour to Tam Coc through stunning limestone karst valleys surrounded by picturesque fields and villages. Have lunch at a local restaurant before boarding a sampan for a short cruise to see the enormous limestone karsts jutting out from the green rice fields giving rise to Tam Coc's other name, 'Ha Long on Land.' Disembark and after a short cycle reach the Bich Dong Pagoda on nearby Ngu Nhac Mountain, dating back to 1428. Late in the afternoon return back to Hanoi.
Integrate yourself with the locals one morning by starting early (around 6am) and make sure to take your camera as it's the perfect time for photography lovers. Start from the Nghi Tam Flower Market — one of the few remaining ones in Hanoi — where you will see the beginning of a working day and the many activities of the market. Remember to check out the traditional signification of each kind of flower. Continue to downtown Hanoi, watch the locals doing their morning exercises lakeside, and finish with a pleasant walk and a coffee near Hoan Kiem Lake.
Take a pleasant drive through typical Vietnamese countryside 25km southwest of Hanoi to the Tay Pagoda. The pagoda is dedicated to the famous 12th-century Buddhist Master Tu Dao Hanh. Besides its unique structure and serene atmosphere, over 100 statues fill the prayer halls, as well as two 15th-century bridges, and an outdoor water puppet stage. Continue to Tay Phuong Pagoda (20 minutes by road); famous for its valuable collection of 18 Arhat statues coated with lacquer, a Tay Son era masterpiece dating back to 17-18th century.
Got one final night to play with? Make an overnight trip to Mai Chau to enjoy gorgeous scenery dotted with limestone mountains and vibrant rice paddies. Stop en-route in the small villages of Thai, H'Mong, and Dao people. Descend on a steep mountain road into the stunning valley of Mai Chau and reach the quaint village to spend the night at a home-stay to experience the rich culture and tradition of the Thai people. The next morning, hire a bike for two hours of easy cycling through the verdant rice paddies and the villages of Chieng Sai, Na Phin, Nhot of the ethnic minority people. After lunch return to Hanoi.

British actress and model Kelly Brook has been linked to "Smallville" star Michael Rosenbaum after they were pictured spending time together in California.
The "Piranha 3D" actress is said to have split from her last boyfriend, David Mcintosh, a former star of British TV show Gladiators, earlier this month, but she has now reportedly moved on with Rosenbaum.
Brook took to Instagram.com to publish a number of pictures of herself hanging out with the actor, best known for playing Lex Luthor in the Superman television series, at a softball game in California.
In the snaps, the stars are seen posing at the game, and sitting in a car together.

The military command of North Korea says that if South Korea and the United States don't cancel their joint military exercises by March 11, they can consider that whole 60-year-old armistice agreement totally over. The newest threat comes as China and the U.S. are reportedly drawing up new sanctions that they have negotiated together and will submit the U.N. Security Council to punish the DPRK for its nuclear weapons test last month.
South Korea and the United States began a series of "war games" on March 1, an annual exercise that serves as reminder to the North about the united front they face from the two allies. It's also a helpful reminder that that Korea War has never technically ended. The DMZ that divides the peninsula enforces an armistice agreement that was signed in 1953. It was designed to create a cease-fire "until a final peaceful settlement is achieved," but that never happened and no formal peace treaty was ever agreed to. That's why the U.S. Eighth Army never left and two nations are in a near constant state of belligerence.
The Chinese news service Xinhua even reported that the DPRK army called the armistice agreement "null."
The joint training operations between the South and the U.S. are set to last until April 30, but this is not the first time the North has threatened to destroy one or both of its rivals. It's hard to imagine that the shooting will start again soon, but there's no doubt that the rhetoric has never been harsher.
UPDATE(12:00 p.m.): China says that the economic sanctions against North Korea will be voted on by the U.N. Security Council this Thursday, and that they would be the toughest ever imposed by the United Nations.

He is tossing two balls in the air, and Ryan, whom I have forced to sit at the table to finish his homework says, "Thats not juggling. Not with two balls."
"It is so..." Kenny says, tossing the two balls higher. Old dead tennis balls.
Then he misses and they fall.
They roll towards Ryan, and he grabs them up. He tosses them, easily catching one then the other. "See? Anyone can do two balls. You need three."
"Shut up!" Kenny yells. He leaves the room, crying.
I look at Ryan. I only frown. Not up to this drama. Just want to get dinner on the table. I'd just gotten the boys picked up from after-school care, after the hour drive back from my mother's; after taking her to the heart doctor who confirmed that at 93, her heart is beating hard and strong. After an echocardiogram that showed good arterial blood flow , despite her obsessive fear that, at 93, at any minute, she might have a heart attack or stroke.
I'd sat in the room gazing at the black and white monitor as a young girl traced a doppler along the arteries in my mother's neck and in and around the black holes of her heart chambers. I used to watch with delight similar black and white images during ultrasounds with my two pregnancies.
This watching of and listening to the pumping of my own mother's blood had not been a delight. Nor had it been nerve-wracking – I did not know what I may have hoped or not hoped for. I was merely mesmerized; in a darkened room, sitting still.
After Kenny was born –the one no doubt pouting up in his room, hurt by his big brother who I knew felt just a bit bad, as he leaned in too closely to his homework, trying to write more slowly and neatly than usual – that two children, however indeed beautiful they were to me, was enough.
I could not have done it. And that's what I knew for sure, listening to my mother's heart pumping, far too reminiscent of the sound of my pregnancies. I could never have juggled three.
