Trautmann: Here's my take on the tax issue. I am not an accountant or tax attorney, so run this by your advisors first. You will get killed, tax-wise, if you sell a MLP.

So it would be best to just hang on and let your heirs receive the MLP with a stepped-up basis.

I own Arena and Vivus. I once owned OREX but sold it quit some time ago at a loss. I thought it the third place company in this space and still do. I wouldn't buy it unless it got much cheaper and/or got FDA approval.

I don't know much about this company, but if they don't make the equipment, but just provide the services, I would think thye will be hurt as the price of the equipment continues to decline to the point that any company can buy their own equipment.

Fairfax: 'Canada's Warren Buffett' On The Importance Of Holding Cash [View article]
Interesting article. I like to hold cash and sell puts at low prices. I either get a great bargain or I get some return on my cash. It's a nice conservative way to benefit from holding cash. I even made some money selling puts on Fairfax when they were available (not anymore).
Tens of thousands of demonstrators protested against TransCanada's (TRP) proposed Keystone pipeline in Washington yesterday, highlighting the dilemma President Obama faces: authorizing the pipeline could create jobs, boost his standing with unions, strengthen ties with Canada and reduce the U.S.'s dependence on Middle East oil; however, it would also alienate a key environmental base that helped get him elected.

If we don't approve the pipeline, we lose the jobs and the Canadians will just ship it to tohers via their own pipelines to the coast. It's not an environmental matter. It is whether we want thejobs or are stupid enough to give them up. The oil be pumped and flow out of Canada either way.

Anything is possible, but you don't seem to have any information that would prove a fraud here - nor does anyone else. Even Tilson, who has been a shor tfor a long time aqnd probably lost money on this stock, don't think it's a Bre-X, so why would you? I know of a geologist and others who have actually been to the site and claim it is the real thing. So who knows? But don't make allegations you cannot substantiate.

I bought a bunch at 99 cents in 2009. I'm very happy with those. I wish I'd bought more. Still seems like a bargain. A healthy, growing company, with smart management, still buying up shares at well below NAV every quarter, and still growing nicely. When the NOLs are used up and the shares reach NAV, look for nice dividends to follow. This should make for a nice retirement asset.
