October 14 - Muscle Flex Prepares for the November National Launch of The BUDDY Tablet Caddy and The Beagle StepFit Pedometer Infomercials and Provides Detail on Its Marketing Strategy
Muscle Flex Inc. (OTC: MFLI) (www.MuscleFlexInc.com) announced that it is preparing for the November national launch of the The BUDDY Tablet Caddy™ (www.BUDDYTabletCaddy.com) and The Beagle StepFit™ Pedometer infomercials (www.BeagleStepFit.com). Muscle Flex will be launching both products simultaneously with each product being featured in their own 2-minute infomercial. The Muscle Flex strategy is to open up markets for each of its products through a multi-faceted marketing approach. This includes:
1. Airing and releasing The BUDDY and The Beagle in the same markets to intentionally increase the repetitive effects of the TV exposure.
2. Cross pollinating and up-selling The BUDDY with the The Beagle, and vice versa, by offering the other through an up-sell to the consumer with an applied discount (20% - 25%) both through the online e-commerce engine and live operator sales.
3. A dedicated one-page landing page for each product.
4. Reinforce each local market with print media; primarily newspaper and direct mail pieces.
5. Online Guerilla marketing tactics.
6. "Pay per performance" TV media as well as TV media purchase.
Muscle Flex strongly believes in "brand visibility & recognition" as it develops each market, which is why releasing multiple products in the same markets is a key element in maximizing the revenue potential of each product campaign and allowing Muscle Flex to release subsequent products in markets in which it has established brand identity and recognition.
The Muscle Flex strategy is a "Drive to the Internet" strategy where transaction costs are the most advantageous; however, a 1-800 customer order feature is always included on all product releases. Each respective one-page landing ecommerce page for the BUDDY and The Beagle is currently being finalized.
Muscle Flex has a number of additional products that are ready for commercial distribution which include an at-home water filtration product it expects to retail from between $19.95 - $29.95, the Muscle Flex VATA Brasil™ Sports and Active Wear Collection and several other products that Muscle Flex will provide additional details on shortly. Muscle Flex is focusing its time and resources in the lower priced item categories which requires a fraction of the resources to bring a product to market and dramatically mitigates risk by spreading its resources across a number of consumer products as opposed to one large high priced item. As well, 2-minute short form commercials allow for 24 hour / 7 day penetration into national cable and network markets as opposed to the 30-minute format which is limited in the time and day it can air. This allows Muscle Flex to grow its brand(s) and consumer awareness across a wider audience from both a demographic and geographic perspective.

October 14 - Greentech International Advisors Returns From Successful International Conference and Updates the Market
Greentech International Advisors, Inc announces breakthrough developments with Magnum D'Or Resources, Inc. (OTCBB: MDOR) , a next generation rubber recycling solutions company.
Greentech would like to announce the following important information:
First, the official test results from the RRI World Renowned (Malaysia Rubber Research Institute facility in Sungai Buloh www.lgm.gov.my) are available and will be released in detail this week.
Second, that positive major news is expected to be released by the week of the 19th of October 2009, with regards to the
Third, Magnum is expected to receive independent national and international media coverage within the next couple of weeks.
Further, Greentech's V.P. stated, "I just returned from successful international conference involving the marketing and exposure of Magnum's Revolutionary technology and Rubber Recycling processes. I am thrilled to say that there are some good times ahead of us and that over the last few weeks MDOR has released astounding news that shows that Magnum and the Magnum/SRI Force are positioned to become a Market Leader in the Global Rubber Production Market."
Greentech is confident that MDOR is a solid investment opportunity for the following reasons:
First, MDOR has developed a number of Magnum/SRI custom compounds to be used in several challenging and commercially important applications. Their efforts have targeted applications ranging from general molded and extruded rubber goods through more demanding applications, such as premium retread and medium specification automotive components.
Second, they have also put a great deal of effort in successfully producing a Magnum/SRI custom compound to be used as a substantive component in light truck tire manufacture. This in itself was a Worldwide Breakthrough and a First in the History of the Rubber Industry and MDOR achieved it successfully.
Third, MDOR can successfully activate crumb rubber produced at their facilities and then process it into a custom compound that can be used as a substantial substitution component in the manufacture of OEM light truck tires without compromise in properties. Prior to recent Magnum/SRI positive test results, this had never been accomplished at these levels before and the challenges in achieving it had been more then substantial.
Greentech's certain that MDOR is a major opportunity at these levels for the following reasons:
First, up until recent successful Magnum news, it should be noted that in technically challenging compound applications, such as OEM tires, the proportion of recycled content has historically been limited to a very small proportion if any. Usually the amount of surface treated tire crumb utilized in these applications is limited to only 2% to 3% (max) range. Any lager amount tends to lead to very serious and unacceptable consequences in terms of performance parameters and even catastrophic failure. Since people's lives are dependent upon performance parameters in this category they are not taken lightly. Even in the case of Retread compounds the level of recycled content and usage of processing aids is limited. This translates directly to the quality and performance of the retread.
Prior to the recent Breakthrough Success of Magnum/SRI there had been NO material, process, or technology to date that has been able to successfully break into this category which covers automotive to heavy truck tires. However Magnum/SRI have officially made history with their Revolutionary Custom Compounds by adding 20% rubber recycled content to an EOM Light Truck Tire and still had it produce the same value added performance and properties as the Original Virgin Light Truck OEM Tire.
Second, as recently stated Magnum Engineering International (MEI) is in serious negotiations to close on several new projects that are expected to generate a gross sale in excess of $40,000,000 US and are expected to be finalized by January 2010. We feel the recent news announcement will help add a substantial amount of revenue and earnings to the company's bottom-line as well as propelling the company forward in the next few months which could lead to a much stronger stock and company (liquidity too).
Third, there are several major accomplishments including facts and data, that proves why MDOR will leapfrog into the future for OEM Virgin Tire and Retread tire manufactures. These two markets alone are roughly a $20 billion industry that MDOR has successfully entered with their Breakthrough Revolutionary Magnum/SRI custom compounds. Magnum/SRI Revolutionary custom compounds will not only provide the value added properties but also provide the manufacture (client) with substantial cost savings on their raw material purchases."

MEI is in both initial and final negotiations with a number of parties and is working with
Glusic went on to say, "There has been a tremendous amount of discussions, both national and international, with companies looking for assistance for solutions to their tire and rubber recycling issues."
President and CEO of Magnum, Joseph Glusic commented, "I am extremely pleased at how quickly MEI has developed the market we had previously ignored. This will prove to be a profit center of its own, adding directly to the bottom line of Magnum. Although we knew there was considerable interest in our process and technology we never really took the opportunity to focus on that market. Now we have the personnel and the resources to support these activities."
In addition to assisting the Magnum group with all technical and engineering solution services, MEI has recently assumed all client inquires, discussions, and International negotiations that were previously being conducted by MDOR in relation to third party recycling solutions.

http://biomedreports.com/articles/most-popular/12852-diagnostics-company-aims-to-change-lab-field-testing-otcbmgp.html.
“The information contained in the BioMedReports article and interview provides an excellent overview of our strategic and product directions. We are very excited about our entrance into the integrated optical biosensor market, especially relating to the malaria and bovine tuberculosis testing market,” commented Clayton Hardman, CEO of Biomagnetics Diagnostics Corp. “We believe significant demand currently exists within this underserved market and we expect the size of the market opportunity to continue to expand over the coming years.”
According to the World Health Organization, some 3.2 billion people, or about half the world's population, is at risk of malaria transmission in 107 countries and territories worldwide. While there are between 350 million and 500 million new cases of malaria each year, there are very few reliable and field deployable diagnostic tools available. Early detection substantially improves treatability and survivability. Field deployable integrated optical biosensor systems, such as those under development at Biomagnetics Diagnostics, hold the promise to significantly speed the diagnostic testing process and to meaningfully lower costs.

June 1 - Paradigm Medical Announces Plans to Release Its New Corneal Topographer, the Paravue, in the
Paradigm Medical Industries, Inc. (OTCBB: PDMI) announced that the Company will soon begin to introduce the first of its four new ophthalmic diagnostic devices, the Paravue, during the remainder of 2009. The Paravue is a sophisticated topographer utilizing Placido Disk Technology and an advanced software to provide accurate and detailed analysis of the anterior corneal surface.
Corneal topography — also known as videokeratography or corneal mapping — represents a significant advance in the measurement of the corneal curvature. Most corneal topographers evaluate 8,000 to 10,000 specific points across the entire corneal surface. By contrast, the Paravue processes more than 100,000 points. It also offers corneal wave front analysis with 2, 3 or 4 maps available for comparison.
The Paravue provides both a qualitative and quantitative evaluation of corneal curvature. It does so by utilizing a big placido disk with 24 concentric rings, which project onto the cornea to create a virtual image. The device compares this image to the target size, and the computer then calculates the corneal curvature. Advanced features including advanced rings editing, variable scales, refractive power map and more make the Paravue a valuable tool in the optometric and ophthalmic clinics.
"The addition of the Paravue to our existing ophthalmic product line fills an important segment that was missing," said Paradigm Medical President, Stephen Davis. "We are excited to offer not just another topographer, but one with many impressive features and incredibly friendly software that provides ease of use, flexible mapping and accuracy."

Golden Eagle International, Inc. (OTCBB: MYNG) reported that it has received a Letter of Intent ("LOI") offering $10 million for the purchase of the Company's Gold Bar mill from LWMG, LLC ("LWMG"), a private exploration and mining company with mining interests in Nevada and Utah. The Gold Bar mill is a 3,500 to 4,000 tpd CIP gold mill located 25 miles northwest of
The terms of the LOI provide for a $1 million down payment to be made by October 30, 2009, with $9 million deposited into escrow pending the completion of the permitting process. LWMG has also offered to negotiate a long-term operating agreement (referred to as a "tolling relationship" in its LOI), which would call for Golden Eagle to be the operator of the Gold Bar mill. However, if the permitting process were not successful, then the offered purchase price would decline to $5 million.
The Company anticipates that it an LWMG will meet in the near future to negotiate the terms and conditions of both the proposed sale of the Gold Bar mill and the operating agreement. Golden Eagle also intends to carry out due diligence regarding LWMG's offer, and further intends to cooperate with LWMG on its due diligence with respect to the proposed transaction. Among the questions to be addressed during the negotiation period are when the $1 million down payment will be made and the conditions for its return to LWMG, when the $9 million will be deposited into escrow, the nature of the permitting that will be required as a condition for the full $10 million purchase price, to allocate responsibility for permitting and due diligence operations, to set forth additional conditions precedent to the transaction, and to establish a timetable for the completion of the transaction.
While Golden Eagle cannot offer any assurance that it will reach satisfactory terms with LWMG regarding its offer to purchase the Gold Bar mill, or for an operating agreement, the Company intends to enter into good faith negotiations with LWMG to seek mutually beneficial terms and conditions.
