August 6 - Continuing Fuel Economy Improvement Documented in Latest 25,000 Mile Mark Over-the-Road Testing Opacity Emissions Now Reduced to Virtually Zero

 

Ethos Environmental, Inc.

The test results were obtained from the combined use of EthosFR+, a liquid fuel catalyst, in the test vehicle's fuel and EthosFR Oil Treatment in the vehicle's engine oil.

 

The original test results were reported on June 29th, 2009 at the 10,000 mile mark on the test vehicle.

 

The ongoing OTR testing is being performed by the California Environmental Engineering (CEE) Laboratory, Center for Environmental Research in Santa Ana, California. A protocol similar to that prescribed for the Society of Automotive Engineers (SAE), J1321, is being used. CEE is Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) recognized and California Air Resources Board (CARB) certified. The testing is being performed in cooperation with the research group of Rod's Trucking, located in Santa Fe Springs, CA.

 

This latest test data now reveals a substantial fuel economy improvement of up to 15% with opacity emissions now being reduced to virtually zero. The previous interim results as reported in the Company's June 29th, 2009 press release showed up to an 11.3% improvement in fuel economy. The test vehicle is the same vehicle referenced in the June 29th, 2009 press release.

 

Ongoing fuel economy and opacity emissions testing on this vehicle will include Particulate Matter Density results in the next phase of testing.

 

"We're delighted to be able to substantively document and report that continued use of EthosFR+ and EthosFR results in increased improvements in fuel economy and further reductions in tailpipe emissions," said Corey P. Schlossmann, Ethos Environmental, Inc.'s CEO. "These newest test results confirm the steady stream of user/anecdotal results the Company continues to receive from its growing customer base."

Green Star Alternative Energy is an environmentally conscious, renewable energy producer. The Company is working to develop more than 300 MW (megawatts) of clean electricity through wind energy. The corporate revenue model is two-fold: the use of a renewable resource allows not only for the creation of environmentally friendly energy, but the granting of carbon (greenhouse gas) emission credits which may be traded and sold. Green Star is pursuing a significant opportunity to provide clean energy to the growing Republic of Serbia and neighbouring European countries. Through a joint venture with key wind farm and power trading company Notos, Green Star will become the nation's first developer of wind power. GSAE is focussed on green technology and sustainable energy programs like wind turbines, hydro electric power generation, and other renewable electricity models.

Green Star Alternative Energy, Inc. (OTC: GSAE) (Frankfurt: GAT) announced that the Company will be attending COP15 – United Nations Climate Change Conference where representatives from over 150 countries will meet in Copenhagen, Denmark to replace the now expiring ‘Kyoto Climate Treaty’. A consensus, backed by science, is emerging among the international community that by 2050 the world will need to reduce emissions of carbon dioxide, methane, and other greenhouse gases to approximately 80 percent lower than they were in 1990. It will mean wholesale reinvention of the global energy economy; anything less could result in catastrophic global temperature increases.

 

Oliver Dulic, Minister of Environment and Spatial Planning of Republic of Serbia, and President of United Nations Environment Programme stated, “In response to the eminent world threats of climate change and economic crisis, UNEP has launched an initiative to promote the 'greening' of the global economy through increased investments in such areas as clean sources, sound chemical and waste management, biodiversity-based products, and environmental infrastructure. As an immediate first step, UNEP is calling for a Global Green New Deal to steer economic stimulus investments in an environmentally and financially sustainable direction.”

 

Mike Andric, CEO of Green Star Alternative Energy, stated: “The issues surrounding the global economy and our environment are at the forefront for developing a sound and healthy future. Studies are calling for over 2000 GW of wind power by 2050, while the world has developed only 120 GW to date.

July 20 - Baby Bee Bright Targets UK Distribution Centers

 

Baby Bee Bright Corporation (OTC: BBYB), developer of a unique prenatal communication system, is expecting a marked increase in sales in the United Kingdom as a result of the release of the publication, “You and Your Family.” Considering the fact that the shipping cost from the US to the UK would increase the price of the Baby Bee Bright, it makes good sense to store inventory and ship it from a distribution center that is located in the UK. This would make all Baby Bee Bright products more affordable for the expectant mothers as well as speed up delivery time on both the retail and wholesale levels.

 

Fred Dahlman, CEO, stated, “Baby Bee Bright is ready to find distribution centers in the UK as well as possible retail outlets. When 'You and Your Family' is in the hands of 500,000 or more expectant mothers in 2010, we need to be ready for sales.”

August 5 - AmeriResource Enters Multi-Billion Dollar Freight Savings Business

 

AmeriResource Technologies, Inc. (OTC: ARIO), a diversified holding company, shares its insight into the multi-billion dollar freight industry. ARIO, through its subsidiary, ATTO Enterprises, Inc., is in the initial stages of hiring sales staff, retooling its software, and updating its web site in an effort to begin saving potentially thousands of clients anywhere between 5% to 20% on their shipping bills.

 

Delmar Janovec, CEO of AmeriResource comments, "The trucking-freight industry has enjoyed some of its best years in the amount of revenues and tons shipped during the 2006 and 2007 timeframe, as detailed in the Reuters press release report at http://www.reuters.com/article/pressRelease/idUS162692+25-Jan-2008+BW20080125. Revenues exceeded $600 billion and over 10 billion tons were shipped. The report shows the industry is an enormous market and If ATTO Enterprises is able to capture only a fraction of this industry revenue, ATTO will have a bright future."

 

Mr. Janovec continued, "With the economy still on the ropes, ATTO's technology is another way for businesses to trim the 'fat' by reducing shipping costs. The beauty of ATTO's service is that it cost nothing other than the time it takes for its clients to sign up. ATTO gets paid out of the savings it creates for its clients. According to documents from former Atto Solution LLC, the technology was able to save up to 20% in shipping cost for it clients. I am optimistic that ATTO, with the proper financing, will be able to land many clients that spend in excess of $1M in shipping every year. I encourage potential clients and investors alike to do the math on what such numbers could mean to ARIO's bottom line in the not too distant future."

 

ABOUT ATTO ENTERPRISES

 

ATTO Enterprises addresses the shipping expenditures for its clients by providing our software technology that reviews the customer's overall freight systems and expenses to determine if the customer's costs are in line within the industry. Following the analysis, the Company will provide the customer with our findings and cost saving projections. If ATTO does not save the customer on its shipping charges, then the customer does not pay. If ATTO saves the customer on its shipping charges, then ATTO shares in the cost savings as our fee for the services.

Opexa Therapeutics, Inc. is dedicated to the development of patient-specific cellular therapies for the treatment of autoimmune diseases. The Company’s leading therapy, Tovaxin, is an individualized cellular immunotherapy treatment in Phase IIb clinical development for Multiple Sclerosis (MS). Tovaxin is derived from T-cells isolated from peripheral blood, expanded ex vivo, and reintroduced into the patients via subcutaneous injections. This process triggers a potent immune response against specific subsets of autoreactive T-cells known to attack myelin and, thereby, reduces the risk of relapse over time. Data from the first Phase IIb clinical study showed compelling evidence that Relapsing Remitting MS patients treated with Tovaxin saw overall clinical, MRI, and immunological benefits over the placebo group, including statistical significance for decrease in the Annualized Relapse Rate (ARR), improvement in disability score (EDSS), and improvement in quality of life measures (MSQLI), as well as an excellent safety profile with no serious adverse events related to Tovaxin treatment.

August 7 - SmallCapSentinel.com: Back to Port With the Treasure

 

"Back to port with the treasure."

 

It's a refrain more often heard in the dialogue of the cast from a Disney film than a public company. But a declaration as such from the latter is indeed a rare and momentous event. For months, Marine Exploration has been slowly informing the market of its shipwreck exploration progress, teasing almost, as the prospect of some great find hovers amid the expectation. Each release seemed to inch ever closer to an epic find, treasure in hand, for the company's shareholders and the historically curious.

 

A company snapshot and editorial regarding Marine Exploration, Inc. (OTCBB: MEXP) and of interest to investors of gold and marine gold exploration equities Odyssey Marine Exploration, Inc. (Nasdaq: OMEX), Barrick Gold Corporation (NYSE: ABX), Newmont Mining Corp. (NYSE: NEM), and Gold Fields Limited (NYSE: GFI) is available at www.SmallCapSentinel.com/mexp.

 

And then came Thursday's news with the tantalizing declaration, "Our research vessel, R/V Hispaniola, is on the way back to port with the treasures."

 

The remark was the center of the release Marine's shareholders have been waiting for, hitting refresh on their quote screens since the company told them that it had found something big and more news was in the offing. Now, shareholders are forced to wait again, this time comforted by the word 'treasure' indubitably, but with no idea as to quantity or value.

 

Perhaps the second most compelling line of the release, 'the company will have photographs and videos of the artifacts available to its investors in the near future,' will have to be enough for an investor base who want to know a little more about their share of the treasure.
