DIVINE INTER VENTURES
"In God We Trust" - the message on the money
Bank of Credit and Commerce International, Silverado, Nugan Hand
Robber barons too sophisticated for the depositors to understand
The people would have revolted in the streets,
had they known the true intentions
of the smooth-talking Christian men
who planned to rob them of their pensions
As arrogant as the aristocrats of pre-Revolutionary France,
Funded by Flip Filipowski's Flim-Flam Finance
Divine, Inc was floundering in a sea of red ink
Jesus Savings & Trust, in thy Dot-Com Kingdom We Trust
The flock will keep the faith, until the boom turns to bust
There was an explosion
dot-com!! dot-com!!! dot-com!!!
dot-com! dot-com! dot-com
dot-com!dot-com!
dot-com!!!
!!!
!
It mushroomed like an atomic bomb
Then the world imploded like WorldCom

9. Divine. Inc mulls bankruptcy | The Register
Biting the hand that feeds IT. Enterprise: ... Click here for
thousands of tech vacancies. Divine Inc., is close to collapse .

[Found on Yahoo! Search, MSN Search]
Divine Inc., is close to collapse. The dotcom tithe firm has
hired investment bank Broadview Associates to help it explore
"strategic options, which may include asset divestitures,
comparable transactions, and/or the filing of a voluntary
petition under Chapter 11 of the United States Bankruptcy Code.
divine is currently involved in active discussions regarding the
potential sale of several businesses or strategic assets".
The company warns that successful conclusions cannot be
guaranteed. Divine has been hit hard by a scandal at subsidiary
Rowecom, which spent the $50m it collected in 2002 as an agent
on behalf of publishers - on its own business. Lawsuits from
publishers and subscribers, chiefly US libraries, could be on
the cards.
In recent months Divine Inc's patent lawyers have sent out court-
threatening letters designed to extract royalties from, mostly,
US dotcom firms. It seems a reasonably safe bet that such
demands should be ignored until the company's fiscal status is
determined. But don't take our word for this: seek advice from
your lawyer before you scrunch up that demand and hurl it in the
bin.

divine, inc. had a short life span before making history as one
of the most famous dot-com flameouts. In the late 1990s founder
and former CEO Flip Filipowski raised $1 billion to finance a
stream of acquisitions that fueled a lukewarm IPO in the
beginning of the dot-com crash. That was followed with a heavily
discounted sale of the company's main assets shortly before
filing for bankruptcy in early 2003. A year later divine
received court approval to liquidate remained assets and pay
creditors $50 million on their $160 million in claims. Various
lawsuits on behalf of shareholders seek compensation, and accuse
former executives of not running the business properly.
