New York, NY, July 22, 2019. The Advisors to the International EMF Scientist Appeal, representing 248 scientists from 42 nations, have resubmitted The Appeal to the United Nations Environment Programme (UNEP) Executive Director, Inger Andersen, requesting the UNEP reassess the potential biological impacts of next generation 4G and 5G telecommunication technologies to plants, animals and humans.

There is particular urgency at this time as new antennas will be densely located throughout residential neighborhoods using much higher frequencies, with greater biologically disruptive pulsations, more dangerous signaling characteristics, plus transmitting equipment on, and inside, homes and buildings. The Advisors to The Appeal recommend UNEP seriously weigh heavily the findings of the independent, non-industry associated EMF science

Click on this link to view: The National Toxicology Program (NTP) concluded in two final reports released November 1, 2018, that there is clear evidence that male rats exposed to high levels of radio frequency radiation (RFR), like that used in 2G and 3G cell phones, developed cancerous heart tumors. There was also some evidence of tumors in the brain and adrenal gland of exposed male rats.

University of Guelph Researchers Unlock the Pain Relief Potential of Cannabis. Cannflavins exhibit anti-inflammatory activity that is thirty times that of Aspirin.

The research was done at the Canadian University of Guelph,  by Prof. Tariq Akhtar, Department of Molecular and Cellular Biology, along with MCB professor Steven Rothstein.

Click on this link to visit the University of Guelph to read their post titled: “U of G Researchers First to Unlock Access to Pain Relief Potential of Cannabis ”.

There are two ways to offer pain relief. One way is to essentially block the pain signals from reaching the Brain. That is how Opioids work. Along with the pain relieve may come Opioid addiction. Tens of thousands of people in the USA and Canada have died from Opioid addiction overdose.

This new research provides an alternative approach to pain relief. Instead of just blocking the pain receptors in the brain, this new approach would reduce the inflation which is the source of the pain. Opioids in contrast have no impact on the inflation, as they only block the pain signals.

The University of Guelph research has found that Cannflavins exhibit anti-inflammatory activity that is thirty times that of Aspirin. Cannflavins are derived from the Cannabis Sativa plant. One aspect of this not mentioned in the research  is the low cost to grow the Cannabis plants and hence potentially reducing the cost of producing the medication from the Cannabis Sativa plants.

Cannflavin A and B are Prenylated Flavonoids that are unique to Cannabis Sativa. So what is Cannabis Sativa?  Cannabis Sativa is a specific variety of Marijuana, Cannabis or sometimes referred to as Weed. Again the researches found that Cannflavins exhibit anti-inflammatory activity that is thirty times that of Aspirin.

Prior to Cannabis being made legal in many US States and Canada and slowly around the Globe, there was little research being done on Cannabis. Why? Since it was illegal one had to jump thru hoops to get permission to do any kind of researched related to Cannabis. Also the variety of Cannabis was limited to what was being produced by a Government Sanctioned grow lab. Many have stated that the strain available for research was more akin to Hemp than Cannabis.

My interest in the Medical Potential for Cannabis varieties was sparked by research done at the University of Madrid by Cristina Sanchez. That research proved that THC, a component of certain varieties of Cannabis, did kill Cancer Cells. THC is the Psycho-Active ingredient of certain strains of Marijuana, which gets you high. Cannabis Sativa is one variety from which one can get THC.

In the following video, Cristina Sanchez presents data showing that whole-plant cannabis extracts (pure THC) are more potent than pure Cannabinoids in producing Anti-Tumor responses in cell culture and animal models of the different sub-types of Breast Cancer.

Please note that the Prenylated Flavonoids discussed in this new research are “NOT” Psycho-Active and will not get you high.

Click on this link to visit the Science Direct site to read the published finding of the University of Guelph Research titled: “Biosynthesis of Cannflavins A and B from Cannabis sativa L“.

It is because Cannabis was made legal in Canada, that this kind of very important research could be done.

What bothers me is that this new research is based on findings from 1985 from the US Patent 6630507 about the medical potential of components of the Cannabis Plant. That US Patent expired on April 21, 2019 and so now anyone can use this info.

From the Abstract of the US Patent 6630507:

Cannabinoids have been found to have antioxidant properties, unrelated to NMDA receptor antagonism. This new found property makes Cannabinoids useful in the treatment and prophylaxis of wide variety of oxidation associated diseases, such as ischemic, age-related, inflammatory and autoimmune diseases. The cannabinoids are found to have particular application as neuroprotectants, for example in limiting neurological damage following ischemic insults, such as stroke and trauma, or in the treatment of neurodegenerative diseases, such as Alzheimer’s disease, Parkinson’s disease and HIV dementia. Nonpsychoactive cannabinoids, such as cannabidoil, are particularly advantageous to use because they avoid toxicity that is encountered with psychoactive cannabinoids at high doses useful in the method of the present invention.

Ringo Starr joined Paul McCartney on stage at Dodgers Stadium

Paul McCartney at 77 is still touring. The concert, of the USA portion of his Freshen Up Tour, was on Saturday, July 13 at Dodgers Stadium in the Elysian Park neighborhood of Los Angeles in California. Since Sept 2018 Paul McCartney and his band had played 39 concerts in Europe, North and South America and Asia. The Tour will continue into Canada later this year.

They performed for 3 hours – yes 3 hours. After the first song of the ending Encore, a special guest joined Paul and his current Band on stage. That was Ringo Starr. Ringo played a set of drums for 2 songs.

Video courtesy of the Variety YouTube channel

 For the last song, which has 3 guitar players, Joe Walsh came on stage to play. Simply awesome. Variety did a revue and shared some video clips. Paul is almost 77. Ringo turned 79 on July 07. Both looked fit and trim. To play in front of a packed Dodgers Stadium for 3 hours and not miss a beat is unreal. This was not a Milli Vanilli type of fake voice over concert. The concert was real and the sound from the videos is awesome. Wish I could have been there.

Chis Willaims at Variety posted something after the concert was over. Click on this line to read that post titled: “Paul McCartney Brings Ringo Starr to the Stage for End-of-Tour Surprise”.

Again, I wish I had been there to see that concert.

Paul McCartney and his Band will perform four concerts in Canada, starting in September of 2019.

Paul McCartney Canadian Tour Dates 2019:

September 17: Quebec City, QC – the Videotron Centre
September 20: Montreal, QC – Bell Centre

City in Florida pays $600,000 to Hackers, after a ransomware attack

River Beach is a small town in Florida, of less than 40,000 people. The City Council in Riviera Beach agreed to pay a $600,000 ransom to hackers who encrypted files on their computers. In hindsight it would have been cost effective to hire a couple of IT guys to go around and apply the Microsoft Security patches to all the computers used by River Beach.

Click on this link to visit The New York Times website to read their post titled: “Hit by Ransomware Attack, Florida City Agrees to Pay Hackers $600,000″.

Ransomware attacks targeting small cities are prevalent and growing. Those cities which do not pay the ransom, may end up spending Millions of Dollars rebuilding their IT Systems. Click on this link to visit the Wired website to read their article titled: “ATLANTA SPENT $2.6M TO RECOVER FROM A $52,000 RANSOMWARE SCARE”.

When the Security Patches were being applied, the IT guys could also discuss Phishing emails as most people are not even aware what a Phishing email is. It is not just small cities that fall for Phishing emails. The accounting departments of huge Tech firms have sent out cheques worth Millions of dollars because of fake Phishing emails.

 

Video courtesy of the RT America YouTube channel

Many of the Ransomware attacks (such as WannaCry) used the Microsoft SMB vulnerability.

There was a prior Cert advisory titled: “Vulnerability Note VU#867968” (Microsoft Windows SMB Tree Connect Response denial of service vulnerability) was issued on Feb 02 2017.

In March Microsoft issued their Microsoft Security Bulletin MS17-012 which addressed the SMB issue.

There was also an even earlier US-CERT Advisory posted on Jan 16 2017 titled: “SMB Security Best Practices”, which suggested “blocking outbound SMB connections (TCP ports 139 and 445 along with UDP ports 137 and 138) from the local network to the WAN. “. Port blocking can be done using your Firewall Software (or Hardware).

A number of attacked city systems had “not” updated “all” their computers with suggested Security Updates. Some of their Operating Systems and Server System software go back to days of Windows 7. The often quoted statement is that they did not have the IT resources to get Security Updates installed on all the computers.

One area which IMHO require more training is Phishing Attacks. That is the use of fake emails sent to emails which are part of a city’s system. The fake email will ask the receiver to click on a link. If the receiver clicks on the link they will link to one of the Hacker’s Command and Control Servers, which will then upload the Ransomware to the receiver’s computer. The Ransomware will be started and spread to the System Servers and to all the other computers. Once running on a computer, the Ransomware will start to Encrypt data files using a secret key. Next messages will pop up on infected computers telling them that their files have been encrypted and that they have so many days to pay a Ransom to get the key to be able to un-encrypt their files.

I recently posted the following article on this site which was titled: “Phishing eMail Scam targeted Facbook and Google for $100 Million Dollars.”.

If the main Servers have Security Updates installed then the Ransomware will not spread. Also, if the System Admins have been doing daily backups, they may be able to recover the Servers using their backup files. They would still have to deal with individual end user computers which were infected.

The “key” is training End Users to not open emails from unfamiliar people. If opened, then the end user should not click on any links and they should immediately contact their IT Support Team. Unfortunately in real life, that is easer said than done.

Have placed Sell order for my 1,000 shares of AAN at $59.60 per share.

I would normally try and sell in the final hour of regular trading. Have an sell order at $59.60 each, for my 1,000 shares of AAN – Aaron’s Inc.

Price has moved above the Upper Bollinger Band. It will in my opinion, retrace back to one of the moving averages. When that happens I may buy again. This was a low volume buy – picked it up over a month ago for $58.00 per share. Was looking good but then the Trump Tweets about China Tariffs messed up the Markets. It can come back. and so I figure that I’ll take out the Capital Gain of $1.60 per share.

UPDATE: After posting this, I checked the price and it has gone down below the Low set at 10:24 am this morning. If I don’t get filled at $59.60 by 3pm today, I’ll cancel the sell order and will grab Market price after 3:30pm today. Figures that it dropped around Noon time when people leave for lunch. I normally stay away from trading between Noon to at least 2 pm. I like trading opening hour and closing hour can bring in awesome trades. That is also why the sell order was not an At Market order. I used to really enjoy Day Trading. Swing Trading can be rewarding, but it is hard to switch the Brain from Day Trading Mode. Like when the China Tariff Tweets tanked the Markets. It was hard to accept the price drops and tell myself that I was in the stocks for the longer term and you are not day Trading. Don’t know how Warren Buffet is able to do it…

Update on APHA and ZBISF Swing Trades

Two lesson so far. Be careful buying in May. If a stock was headed down and then reverses, maybe don’t buy the initial reversal breakout. Wait for the retest of the Low and then buy if it bounces back up.

Both APHA and ZBISF are Cannabis stocks. Bad news hit a lot of Cannabis stocks. The FDA held meetings and reports from the meetings were mixed. After those news reports, Cannabis stocks got hit – ACB for another  example. The mixed news about the FDA and the downside reaction was in my opinion premature. Looks like people have realized that and the prices are back to normal.

Still holding both APHA and ZBISF.

ZBISF Swing Trade Review

On May 30 I had purchased 1,000 shares of Zenabis Global Inc (ZBISF) at close at $1.255 per share. Why? To test my ideas for an “After Work” Swing Trading System. I believe the price could rise to the Resistance level around $1.49-$1.50. I’d sell at $1.45 to $1.47.

More immediate Resistance is at around $1.35. If the price moves up above $1.35 then it could head to the next Resistance and I will get out at $1.45-$1.47. Making 20 Cents per share on a stock trade is not a big deal. The key is to see if the system can find a stock worth buying.  If it works then you take the 20 Cents (only as an example) and rinse and repeat.

APHA Swing Trade review

Had bought 1,000 shares of Aphria Inc (APHA) on May 28 at $7.62 per share.. Why? To test my ideas for the “After Work” Swing Trading system.

The trading since has been similar to what happened after March 18th of this year. Price went down towards the middle between the two Bollinger Bands. Price closed below the moving averages, which normally would have gotten me out of the trade.

The MFI went lower and hit the trend line. The price stayed above the Low of May 23 ($6.38). I have read that is is prudent to buy on the retest of the low, instead of the initial price breakout, In this case It would have been better to wait before entering. I suspect on Monday trading will reverse as RSI(2) is back into Oversold.

So far this trade is losing money. As long as the price holds above the $6.38 Low I’ll stay in.

Buying 1,000 shares of ZBISF just before close today May 30 at Market.

ZBISF (Zenabis Global Inc) is a Canadian Cannabis stock trading Over the Counter. It is priced well under $2.00 per share and so is a “Penny Stock” and the trading volume is in my opinion “Low”. Normally liquidity is of importance. It allows one to dump, in case something goes wrong with the stock. This is being bought based on my new “After Work” Swing Trading ideas to “Test” them.

Checking the chart you see rising lows on RSI(2) and on MFI(4) and on the Detrended Osc and on the Stochastics. In my opinion, that is a safety net. If the price continues trading in the channel, then price could hit or close just above the Upper Bollinger Band. and come back to around the Middle between both bands.

Will I become a Millionaire with this trade?  Sure, if the stock prices rises to over $1,000,000 US per share. That would be a historic OTC Stock move. If the Swing works out, then I might buy back in again. IMHO there looks to be upside potential. Trading volume is low and so can’t buy a lot of shares, but it’s a great chart to help confirm my new “After Work” Swing Trading idea.

Why buy at close instead of open tomorrow? I’m home today, so why not. The “After Work” idea is to buy or sell either at Open or at Close and not worry about trading during work hours (again this is not Day Trading).

This morning’s trading in APHA – Aphria Inc

APHA started up today and then reversed. Look at the chart in my prior post. The price hit the upper Bollinger Band today. Many traders buy when the price hits or goes below the Lower Bollinger Band and then they sell (Mean Reversion) when the price hits the middle of the two bands or when then price hits the Upper Bollinger Band. Since I’m not Day Trading this, it’s not an issue. I figure then support is at $7.35 (Friday’s close)and then we’ll have a bounce back up.

Oh yea, a shout out goes to the Stocktwits.com website. One of the good folks from that site linked to my post and we’ve had a number of visitors. Thank You “exHawaiian” for mentioning my post.

Click on this link to visit the StockTwits.com website to view their discussion about APHA.

Click on this link to visit Nasdaq.com to view their real time chart of the trading of APHA  so far today. I note that as the stock price retraced back down the volume went down. at 10:21AM it hit it’s low of $7.40 and bounced up. At 10:36AM is came back to retested the low at $7.40.  at 10:39AM is touched $7.36. There’s a old saying: “Gaps get filled”. At 10:46AM the opening gap got filled as the stock price of APHA hit $7.35. At 10:51 it touched $7.27. The middle of the Bollinger bands is around $6.97-$6.98. The Shorts this morning could hold out to that level since support was broken at $7.35. But then again this is a Swing Trade and not a Day Trade for me. The only way for me to see if the “After Work” Swing Trading ideas work is to test them and not switch into Day Trading mode.

Order filled @ $7.62 ea for 1,000 shares of APHA (Aphrioa Inc) on NYSE this morning

The Buy order was filled this morning at $7.62  for 1,000 shares of Aphria Inc – symbol APHA on the NYSE. This stock also traded on the TSX in Toronto under symbol APHA.TO. I charted both and noted that the Momentum on the NYSE was stronger and so placed order there. The Momo would not impact the buy, but when I sell there could be more buyers in NY versus Toronto.

In hindsight, since the US markets were closed yesterday (May 27), but the TSX in Toronto was open, I should have bought at the Open on the TSX yesterday May 27. Trading in Toronto confirmed what my “After Work” Swing Trading ideas had indicated –  that APHA was breaking out.

Buying 1,000 shares of APHA at Open May 28 on NYSE at Market

I have been taking time lately to work on my “After Work” Swing Trading system. One that I don’t have to monitor the market every minute as with Day Trading. This way I can go to work and not worry. When I return home I can then check to see what’s happening and post the Buy or Sell orders for the next day as needed. I normally trade regular market hours.

My attraction for Price Gap Ups has to be curtailed. Gaps come back and fill, this month has shown me – yet again. Also Investing for the long term bugs me, as you have to absorb price drops and not sell. The month of May showed me how painful that can be. In the long term (as in years), I’m of the opinion that it will work out, but short term those price drops are painful to watch and sit tight.

My new “after work” system is based on tried and true work done by others. I use the 2 Period RSI – yes 2 period. Because the RSI does not take volume into account, I also include a 4 period Money Flow Index. Why? Drawing trend lines on the MFI can give me insight into the stock trend. For example MFI(4) is making lower lows, while the RSI(2) is indicating a potential trade. Ya the trade could work for say one day and come back because the trend is not going up as per the MFI. I also add Stochastics, Williams%R and On Balance Volume. Those added Indicators can help indicate whether the stock price in trading in a channel. Could help in the future if I decide to trade Channels, but not at this time.

The price chart has the EMA(4) and EMA(9) plotted. Bollinger Bands are also added. For me it could be a buy when the price closes above the EMA(4) and Sell when it closes Below the EMA(9).  With Bollinger Bands, could be a buy the next day when the price closes down below the lower Bollinger Band. Could be a sell when the price goes above the EMA(4), or wait a bit more if it might go above the EMA(9).

Individually some of the stuff mentioned is used in trading systems by others. Just check YouTube.com and you’ll find an amazing amount of info. For me, each thing on the chart gives me some insight that maybe the other things could not. The Trigger to get my attention will be the RSI(2).

Based on this new “After Work” Swing Trading System I will be buying 1,000 shares of APHA (Aphria Inc) at Open on May 28 on NYSE. APHA is a Cannabis stock. I was searching for something on the Web and noted that APHA was being plugged on one website as a great Pot Stock. I did not read the article, but did chart the stock. The pop on Friday could be due to the it being plugged on the WEB – just my opinion that such may be why. My chart “in my opinion” shows a Breakout. This will be checked in the evenings, “after work”. Will not bother checking during the day time, during market hours.

Facebook owns WhatsApp.  The vulnerability was found in early May of this year. The Hack allowed the installation of spyware on the Cell Phone being called even if the call was not answered by the Cell Phone owner. The software installed was allegedly the very powerful spyware named Pegasus.

Pegasus can gain full control over the phone. That, includes all of its contents and history. Pegasus also has the ability to activate its Cell Phone microphone and camera without the cell phone owner being aware of it.

The Israeli firm called the NSO Group is known for producing Pegasus. Their customer base is apparently government agencies around the globe.

The Citizen Lab website published a report of the extent of use of Pegaus Spyware around the globe. Click on this link to visit The Citizen Lab website and read their post titled: “HIDE AND SEEKTracking NSO Group’s Pegasus Spyware to Operations in 45 Countries“.

The United Kingdom’s National Cyber Security Centre has published today (May 14) suggestions for Cell Phone users.

Buying 1,000 shares of NVDA tomorrow May 14 at Open at Market

I’ll buy 1,000 shares of NVDA – NVidia tomorrow May 14 at Open at Market.

The stock markets have been hard hit thanks to US President Trump’s Tweets about more Tarrifis on Chinese Imports.

NVDA gapped Down today. It hit the long term Resistance level at around $158 to $160 and closed at ($158.03) the Resistance. CCI is in Oversold territory. My new strategy indicates do not buy. My gut says different, especially the gap down open today and then going lower to close at Resistance area. This is not a Technical nor Fundamental based buy – gut only. The candle bar today was long. I suspect overreaction because of the general bad mood the stock markets are in. This will be a short term Swing Trade.
