I know I got a little soft and sentimental last week as I was speaking about black men graduating. Contrary to what I’d like to believe, I am human and simply can’t sustain a feeling of outrage forever. That certainly doesn’t mean we’re at a loss things to be outraged about. This week, as we return to business as usual, I want you guys to come pay me a visit in the CLT – that’s Charlotte, NC where committing a violent crime on Monday evening will get you tried on Wednesday morning and the guilty verdict will land you on probation because the jails are overcrowded. Given that fact pattern, it should not be a tremendously difficult stretch for you to reach the conclusion that the majority of violent crime comes from repeat offenders. These perpetrators and perpetuators of armed robberies, car thievery, and breaking and entering often are teenagers. Because the book is not thrown at them, they have found little incentive to change their ways. Although, I believe two guys by the name of Smith and Wesson could

Carbon Sciences, Inc. (OTCBB: CABN) is a developer of a breakthrough technology that transforms carbon dioxide (CO2) into high-value, earth-friendly products. Recently, the company deposited an international PCT patent application pursuant to last year’s filing of United States patent application 11/749,741 with the U.S. Patent Office. The application is in regard to the company’s elusive method for the transformation and sequestration of carbon dioxide. The publishing of the international PCT application is expected to occur by the end of November 2008. As far as future plans go for the company concerning the protection of their technology, they are focusing their efforts on proceeding with national phase entries in various countries by November 2009, particularly countries with important mining industries. “We are particularly proud of the fact that the technologies we are developing will have international impact,” commented Derek McLeish, CEO of Carbon Sciences. “As we continue to develop our

USA Superior Energy Holdings, Inc. (USSU.OB) First Quarter Filings Near Completion

Posted on 5/31/2008 @ 9:34 AM in #Stocks by QualityStocks 0 comments

USA Superior Energy Holdings, Inc. (OTCBB: USSUE) announced that certifications - and an independent, registered public accounting firm’s review of their consolidated financial statements (which included their quarterly reports on form 10-Q for the first three months ended March 31, 2008) - will be completed this week. The company also filed an amended quarterly report on form 10-Q for the first three months ended March 31, 2008, that will be reviewed and included other certifications, will be filed by May 30, 2008. The company had previously filed their quarterly report on form 10-Q on May 20, 2008, but because of the short time period between filing of the company’s year-end annual report a few days earlier, neither USA Superior nor the public accounting firm had enough time to complete all the necessary work. As a result, the company’s stock symbol will retain the “E” designation until such time as the OTCBB can review the amended filing to conclude that the company filed with proper procedures.

Dutton Associates Featured Company: Woize International Ltd. (WOIZ.OB)

Posted on 5/31/2008 @ 9:33 AM in #Stocks by QualityStocks 0 comments

Woize International Ltd is an up-and-coming telecommunications company with an established voice over Internet protocol service and aspirations to join the wireless market. Woize has developed a phenomenal software VOIP client, which - if picked up by a third party provider - would offer great efficiency and cost savings for a new VOIP network. Unfortunately this has not yet happened. The service is unique because it would allow a buyer to take advantage of additional revenue generating tools, such as click-to-call and click-to-pay services in addition to traditional advertising space. The programming advantages are in Woize’s favor, but because it currently lacks the critical mass necessary to compete with companies like Skype, and the much larger diversified companies like AOL, Yahoo or Google. A potential solution to this problem is for Woize to join the wireless market, where the possibilities for success are much greater. The number of hybrid cellphones with Wi-Fi access continues to grow as people’s

MedeFile International Inc. (MDFI.OB) – A Source to Gain Full Picture of Patient’s Health

Posted on 5/30/2008 @ 6:53 PM in #Stocks by QualityStocks 0 comments

Today society is more mobile than ever before. Families no longer live in the same house for decades. Individuals no longer stay employed with the same company for 20 years. People now move when they are offered a better career opportunity. Organizing a move and starting a new job is stressful enough without having to think of all the paperwork that needs to be transferred. Becoming a member of MedeFile would take care of one key element wherever or whenever an individual or family transfers to a new location. The MedeFile system provides users, hospitals, and physicians access to medical records 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. Any authorized hospital or physician can have access to a member’s digital records. When starting with a new physician, patients must normally provide all former medical paperwork from a previous doctor and/or hospital, as well as arrange an initial consultation and verbally go through their medical history. If someone has no physical conditions, this can be done quite easily. For

Name Change for NewMarket China, Inc. (NMCH.OB) - Now China Crescent Enterprises, Inc.

Posted on 5/30/2008 @ 6:52 PM in #Stocks by QualityStocks 0 comments

In a recent press statement, NewMarket China, Inc. announced its intent to henceforth be known as China Crescent Enterprises, Inc. in an effort to distinguish itself from its parent organization, NewMarket Technology, Inc. Formerly the Intercell International Corporation, the company was acquired by NewMarket Tech. in 2006. After a subsequent reorganization, it became known as NewMarket China, and began trading under the symbol: NMCH. The goal of the company is to bridge the gap between Eastern and Western corporate practices, acting as an international partner to US companies in the developmental stages of business. Low development and manufacturing costs in China appeal to fledgling corporations in America, allowing them the opportunity to globally expand operations. Changes to a company’s billing traditionally require between 30 to 60 days to take effect. The company hopes to have completed the process by late June, pending SEC approval. According to the announcement, the new name choice is

American Security Resources Corp. (ARSC.OB) - Clearing the Air Around Recent Confusion

In American Security Resources Corporation, we find an organization which dedicates itself to the realization of a better tomorrow. The company is working tirelessly toward the development and eventual deployment of a technology long thought to be something out of a sci-fi film; the energy-efficient hydrogen fuel cell. In mid-2007, American Security Resources’ subsidiary, American Hydrogen Corporation, was granted an exclusive license to commercialize Ohio University engineer Gerardine Botte’s ammonia-to-hydrogen conversion cell. In industry terms, it is a catalytic electrolyzer technology which efficiently converts ammonia into hydrogen, its purpose being inexpensive fuel production for various propulsion systems and clean energy generation. Significant public confusion was prompted by a recently released quarterly report as to the standing of this contract. In an effort to alleviate skepticism, president of American Hydrogen Corporation, Ben Schafer stated: “Contrary to a statement in ARSC’s most

R. Kelly Has Got to Go to Jail

Posted on 5/30/2008 @ 5:23 PM in #Music by InsideScoop 4 comments

R. Kelly needs to go to jail. And he needs to go fast before he starts performing at Chuck E. Cheese. R. Kelly needs to go for a myriad of reasons. First, no grown man should be peeing on females, be they grown or teenagers. Secondly, he is married. Thirdly, this is the last of a series of underage relationships he’s had in his career, starting with Aaliyah. R. Kelly might as well have a parking spot outside of Kenwood Academy, his alma mater. I can imagine him outside, bumping “Age Ain’t Nuttin Bout A Number”, giving out teddy bears and Blow Pops as he pulls some JV majorette. He has become the synonym for a pedophile. Look at this conversation: Guy #1: Man, she’s cute. Who is that? Guy #2: Nah. That’s my boy’s little sister. She’s like 15. Guy #1: Oh damn. Ain’t tryna pull an R. Kelly. The fourth reason is the one that irks me the most: he has gone crazy since the charges. This dude goes out, gets fur throwback jerseys, wears a mask and calls himself “The Pied Piper”. That’s like Michael
