CEO Ken Allen Discusses $3.7 Million in Purchase Orders
MetaPower International, Inc. (OTC: MTPW) announced that the Company has been featured as “Larry Oakley's Stock Pick” on WallStreetCorner.com. MetaPower's CEO Ken Allen, was interviewed by Mr. Oakley, a financial reporter, whose criteria for choosing MetaPower International was his opinion of the stock's potential to increase in value based on its success in 2007, which saw the Company draw a profit of more than $400,000.
Mr. Oakley noted several positive aspects regarding MetaPower's future revenue potential. He pointed to a substantial market in the United States, with approximately 33,700 hazardous plants, as well as a demand for the Company's management services in the hazardous process industries. He also pointed out that one of MetaPower's largest clients, an Oil Sands operation in Northern Alberta, is expected to continue at its present level for the next several years.
In the interview, Mr. Allen overviewed MetaPower International's performance in 2007 and focused on the future of the Company. Currently, MetaPower has purchase orders with a combined value of $3.7 million.
“I like this situation. MTPW's expertise is Process Safety Management. It can help a broad range of hazardous industries and I like the fact that the Company has the funds available to market its new product introduction to U.S. hazardous industries. I feel that is a highly undervalued price and represents an excellent opportunity,” stated Mr. Oakley, following the interview with Mr. Allen.
“Mr. Oakley had a lot to say about MetaPower, and we appreciate the effort that he put into his research on the Company. We are encouraged by his optimistic vision of the Company's value as an investment and we share his confidence in our future success,” stated Ken Allen, CEO of MetaPower International, Inc.

February 13 - JC Data Solutions Receives Confirmation From Transfer Agent in Reduction of Outstanding Shares and Has Filed With the Delaware Secretary of State to Reduce Authorized Shares by 38%
JC Data Solutions, Inc. (OTC: JCDS) announced confirmation of reduction of the Outstanding Shares to 370,000,000 common shares and has filed with the Delaware Secretary of State that the company's lawful and documented Authorized Shares be reduced by 38% to 500,000,000 common shares per the company's board resolution adopted earlier this month.
The company believes the reduction in its Authorized Shares will further enhance shareholder value, and eliminate any market concerns about potential mass dilution of the company's stock. The 38% reduction of the Authorized Shares of the company in no way reduces the shares held by current shareholders.
"We are pleased to have formally initiated the 38% reduction of our Authorized Shares," stated Cary Allen, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of JC Data Solutions. "We realize that previous share structure was causing some undue concern and speculation among some shareholders and in the public markets. This action should clearly alleviate those concerns."

February 12 - First National Entertainment Corp. Focus on the Appalachian Basin
First National Entertainment Corp. (OTC: FNAT) announced that it is focusing its initial efforts in oil and gas in the Appalachian Basin, concentrating in Tennessee.
The Scott, Morgan, and Fentress Counties of upper east Tennessee are well known for shallow oil and gas production, some with high rates of flow. The area is known for multiple pay zones, including the Monteagle Limestone, the Ft. Payne Limestone, the Chattanooga Shale as well as the deeper Trenton-Black River and Knox groups.
Our initial plan is to build a lease position in Morgan, Scott and Fentress counties for future drilling as well as acquiring well bores in which the Chattanooga Shale is exposed. We believe the Chattanooga Shale is destined to become a major source of natural gas for the eastern seaboard. One recently drilled horizontal well in Morgan County had an open flow of 3.9 MMCF per day.
