plhi (.05) Paladin Holdings, Inc. Releases Southland Update Regarding Emergystat of Sulligent

Friday, December 21 2007 7:59 AM, EST Market Wire "US Press Releases "
KINGSPORT, TN -- (MARKET WIRE) -- 12/21/07 -- Paladin Holdings, Inc. (OTCBB: PLHI) releases its Southland update regarding Emergystat of Sulligent. At the request of General Electric Capital Corporation ("General Electric"), a court today has ordered Emergystat of Sulligent, Inc. ("Sulligent"), a wholly owned subsidiary of Southland Health Services, Inc. ("Southland"), operator of ambulance and emergency medical services in certain Alabama counties, not to use its funds to pay the expenses for required functions supplied by its parent company, Southland Health Services, Inc. , virtually crippling Sulligent's ability to operate and requiring that Sulligent operate outside the prescribed legal requirements by the state.
The denied functions include call taking and emergency medical dispatch, proper collection of fees for transportation services, planning and oversight of the proper method of handling drugs and hazardous waste, properly maintaining the vehicles for both licensing and service, certain Human Resource services ensuring personnel meet all certifications and other specific requirements, and maintaining required insurance levels which are vital to the continuing operation of Sulligent as well as being mandated by both the Statutory Authority Code of Alabama section 420-2-1-.03 "Ground Ambulances," specifically subsections (6), (10), (13), (14), (16), and (17) as well as OSHA 29CFR parts 1904 and 1952. In addition to these specific functions, Sulligent was denied the right to pay for general accounting and other normal administrative services. General Electric also asked the court to require Sulligent to make payments in excess of the required statutory obligation ( IRS Code ) to the Internal Revenue Service in the amount of $25,000 a week as a condition to access to any of its operating cash to pay only basic direct cost such as paramedic wages. General Electric refused Sulligent's request to pay Southland for the State mandated services.
Sulligent has advised the court that it cannot operate its business under the restrictions demanded by General Electric. Sulligent is reviewing the court order and exploring all options available to it. In order to ensure no disruption in service in the areas in which Sulligent provides EMS services, Extended Emergency Medical Services ("EMS"), a wholly owned subsidiary of Southland, has offered to provide services on a temporary basis in those counties. Each county has the option to accept this temporary arrangement until such time they can evaluate their permanent EMS solution. Southland is committed not to allow any disruption within the areas of the service previously provided by Sulligent, and will not allow General Electric's request and the subsequent court approval of General Electric's request to harm any of the individuals within the areas served by Sulligent.
Larry Lunan, President and CEO of Southland Health Services, Inc. , stated, "The Sulligent subsidiary sought protection under Chapter 11 Bankruptcy Code; so it, under this relief, could work out an acceptable solution and payment plan for the Sulligent tax deficiency."
Even though this stated purpose was communicated to both the IRS and General Electric , the Company and Mr. Lunan have been attacked viciously in every court hearing. Southland, since Sulligent's filing, has provided Sulligent in excess of $300,000 cash and an additional $300,000 in uncompensated mandatory services through December 17, 2007 . This commitment by Southland to support the subsidiary, Sulligent, has been vilified by all parties which resulted in this latest order. The Company is committed to continue to pursue a favorable outcome for its shareholders and will keep our shareholders informed as well as ensure that emergency medical services are not interrupted and are available to the constituents of the counties the Company serves.

evtn (.53) Enviro Voraxial Technology Completes Offering, Discusses 2007 Year in Review and 2008

Friday, December 21 2007 7:57 AM, EST PR Newswire "US Press Releases "
FORT LAUDERDALE, Fla ., Dec. 21 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Enviro Voraxial Technology, Inc. (OTCBB: EVTN - News) announces today that the Company completed its Private Placement and received commitments for additional funding in 2008. Five accredited investors participated in the Offering, including a Water Investment Fund that is ranked among "the best performing water funds globally" this year. The terms of the Offering were restricted common shares at a value of $0.60 per share. The Water Investment Fund participated in a previous Offering.
Year in Review
OVERVIEW:
EVTN management sincerely appreciates the support of its loyal shareholders. This loyalty has been driven by a shared vision of the significant advantages that our Voraxial(R) Separator technology can deliver to many global market applications. EVTN focused most of its current marketing efforts toward companies involved in the oil exploration & production industry, including both offshore and onshore, deckwater drainage, refining, and environmentally driven oil/water and oil/water/solids separation. These markets are large and are dominated by some of the world's largest and most profitable corporations. EVTN has established direct relationships with many of these companies because of the economic value the "Voraxial(R) Separator" offers.
CURRENT STATUS:
In the past several years, we concentrated our marketing efforts toward the oil industry by attending trade shows and conferences, marketing in trade journals, and attracting representatives to promote the Voraxial. Since we are a small company with a new technology, it was difficult to get our first deployment in the oil industry. However, since then, we have seen an increase in inquiries, project opportunities and sales. This increase allowed us to develop relationships with oil and service companies interested in either using or promoting the Voraxial. In the past 2 years, we deployed Voraxials for trials with several oil companies and began selling product to the industry. In August, we installed a Voraxial Deckwater Drainage System on an oil rig to perform oil/water separation.
Successful performances in several prior installations with high profile customers resulted in ongoing requests for quotations and proposals regarding the application of the Voraxial(R). Many of these applications represent a significant global market potential for EVTN.
For instance, EVTN delivered a Voraxial System to a major oil company months ago that is scheduled for deployment in the first quarter 2008. This company has over 100 similar facilities and their adoption of the Voraxial(R) Separator system could potentially open the door to a huge market in their sector and beyond.
As awareness of the Voraxial benefits increase, we expect a multiplying effect on project opportunities, and ultimately sales. Based on the interest received from potential customers, we are building inventory for anticipated projects in the first half of 2008.
UPGRADES
In the past year EVTN made some upgrades to the Voraxial Separator that increases the "g" force generated by approximately 300%. This increase significantly improves separation performance. These upgrades also increase the flow rate through the Voraxial while decreasing energy and maintenance requirements. The first shipment of the upgraded unit occurred in Quarter IV, 2007 and additional units are being manufactured and prepared for shipment to potential customers for delivery in 2008. These units are manufactured for both oil/water and liquid/solid separation.
EVTN increased its product offering by building turnkey oil/water, liquid/solid, liquid/liquid/solid separation skids that are centered around its Voraxial Separator. The turnkey system can be utilized in multiple niche applications in the oil industry including produced water, under-balanced drilling (UBD), deck water drainage, slopwater, FPSO and refinery markets.
The Voraxial skid provides the oil industry with a compact and effective separation system. The Voraxial's small footprint, low energy requirements and separation quality coupled with TwinFilters unique filtration equipment for secondary treatment provides customers with a complete turn-key package that meets the most stringent discharge levels such as OSPAR (North Sea countries <30mg/ltr) and United States 40 CFR435 (<29 mg/ltr). Interest in the turnkey skid has increased and we anticipate shipping a few of these skids in the first half of 2008.
RELATIONSHIPS:
The benefits and market potential of the Voraxial(R) Separator presents EVTN with a number of opportunities to develop business relationships with major service corporations. This strategy of supplementing EVTN's direct marketing efforts with effective alliances with larger, established service companies should allow EVTN a faster and more efficient path to market penetration.
In April of 2007 EVTN entered into a non-exclusive sales and marketing agreement with TwinFilter (www.twinfilter.com), a leading filtration company serving the oil and gas industry. TwinFilter is headquartered in the Netherlands and services prestigious oil industry clients on a global basis. Under the terms of the agreement, EVTN and TwinFilter agree to market and promote each others technologies. In addition, EVTN and TwinFilter are collaborating to build and promote the Voraxial Skid that incorporates EVTN's Voraxial Separator and TwinFilter's absorption systems, coalescing, other filter technology. This relationship led to additional inquiries from the oil industry and discussions to ship products to potential customers in 2008.
FINANCIAL:
EVTN completed its 2007 Private Placement. A participant in the 2006 and 2007 Private Placement is a Water Investment Fund that has made verbal commitments to provide additional funding in Quarter I, 2008. Management believes our financial requirements for the next 12 months will be met. The funds from the 2007 Offering were primarily used for sales & marketing, working capital and inventory. EVTN is currently building additional inventory for the anticipated purchase orders in 2008.
Additional funds may be utilized as follows: add personnel to manage increasing requirements from existing and new customers, build additional units for inventory to increase our response time to delivery requirements, working capital, and sales and marketing. EVTN is also researching the viability of establishing a marketing presence in Houston , possibly through acquisition. Houston is a major international hub for EVTN's existing and potential oil industry customers.
CONCLUSION:
Management is excited at the possibilities that are ahead of us. In the past 2 years, we increased awareness and witnessed a rising acceptance of the Voraxial Separator as a solution to the oil industry separation processes. This resulted in more revenue producing opportunities. We are developing relationships with both customers and service companies that will continue to present EVTN with project opportunities. We believe that these opportunities will continue to increase and we will begin to see a noticeable increase in our revenues and clientele list in 2008. We are budgeting to deploy the inventory we are currently building by the 1st half of 2008. The deployments may include applications for produced water, tar sands, FPSO, and refineries.
We have been able to reach this point without significantly diluting the capital structure or incurring any debt outside of normal business operations. The last funding was completed at $0.60 per share. This was near the market price which illustrates the investor's opinion that the opportunities are significant and the market price may not be indicative of the current valuation.
We are encouraged about our prospects and believe that the foundation laid out over the past 2 years will begin to be reflected in our 2008 revenues. We look forward to providing our shareholders with a strong year.
Thank you again for your continued support.

Sincerely,
Alberto DiBella
President

About The Kuru-Tegerek Cu-Au Skarn Deposit and Exploration Area
The Kuru-Tegerek deposit is located in Chatkal region of the province of Jalal-Abad in the western part of the Kyrgyz Republic. It occupies a southern slope of the Chandalash range, which is part of the Talas Altai mountains between the Chakmakus River and the Kuru-Tegerek River.
The area where the Kuru-Tegerek copper-gold deposit is sited is one of most geologically prospective regions of Kyrgyzstan . The region already hosts numerous deposits including primary hard rock and secondary placer deposits. The gold placer deposits occupy valleys of western tributaries of the Chatkal RRiver and the primary deposits of copper, molybdenum and gold are found on the slopes of arms of the Chandalash mountain range. To date about 200 deposits, mineralized zones and mineral occurrences have been inventoried in this region.
The Kuru-Tegerek copper-gold deposit was a subject of multistage and long term exploration activities which resulted in detailed geological mapping and geochemical and geophysical surveys, drillings and underground mining works. During the period from 1975 to 1980 pre feasibility studies were conducted over the deposit area which included 38,191m of diamond core drillings and 18,590 underground workings. These works are described in detail in the appropriate reports. As a result of all exploration works, the resources of ores and contents of metals were estimated according to the regulation of the former Soviet Union governmental authorities.
Kichi Chaarat CJSC Company currently hold two licences: a mining licence covering 9km2 over the Kuru-Tegerek deposit and an exploration licence covering 39,500 hectares (h) of the area of the eastern slope of the Sandal mountain range which includes the Kuru-Tegerek mountain.

sphry (3.2) FDA Warning for N-9 - an Opportunity for VivaGel(R)

Friday, December 21 2007 6:59 AM, EST PR Newswire "US Press Releases "
MELBOURNE, Australia , Dec. 21 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Starpharma Holdings Limited (ASX:SPL, OTC: SPHRY), developer of VivaGel(R) vaginal microbicide today welcomed a decision by the US FDA this week requiring makers of products containing nonoxynol 9 (N9) to carry a warning that the products do not protect against sexually transmitted diseases, including HIV/AIDS and that the use of N-9 products is associated with an increased risk of HIV.
Starpharma's VivaGel(R) is a vaginal gel, being developed to protect women from HIV and HSV-2 (genital herpes) during sex. VivaGel(R) does not use N9. VivaGel(R) is currently in mid-stage clinical trials in the US and Kenya to add to its portfolio of safety data before embarking on population-based efficacy testing.
In the December 18 FDA release they noted:
"FDA is issuing this final rule to correct misconceptions that the chemical N9 in these widely available stand-alone contraceptive products protects against sexually transmitted diseases, including HIV infection," said Janet Woodcock, M.D., FDA's deputy commissioner for scientific and medical programs, chief medical officer, and acting director of the Center for Drug Evaluation and Research (CDER).
"Clinical research has shown that N9 provides no protection against sexually transmitted diseases to the woman if her sexual partner is infected with an STD pathogen or HIV."
In addition, FDA is requiring that the labels warn consumers that the chemical N9 in stand-alone vaginal contraceptives and spermicides can irritate the vagina and rectum, which may increase the risk of contracting HIV/AIDS from an infected partner.
"Starpharma welcomes this clear statement from the FDA," commented Jackie Fairley, Starpharma's CEO. "We feel that this emphasizes the urgent need for products such as VivaGel(R) to assist individuals protect themselves from infection with these serious diseases. Starpharma is intent on developing VivaGel(R), both as a stand-alone gel and, through our co-development agreement with SSL International plc , as a condom coating ("Starpharma and Durex sign co-development agreement for VivaGel(R)-coated condoms" Starpharma, 16 October 2007 )" (see: http://www.starpharma.com/news-room.asp).
VivaGel(R) has fast track status for development for HIV from the FDA, and has received in excess of $26m funding support from the US National Institutes of Health (NIH) for its development for both HIV and HSV-2. VivaGel(R) is being developed as a potential coating on condoms and as a stand alone product to protect against the contraction of sexually transmitted infections. It has also been shown to have a contraceptive affect in animal trials.

tmmi (.021) TMMI Announces Completion of Deal to Acquire TruDef Fractal Video Codec Enhancements

Friday, December 21 2007 6:28 AM, EST Market Wire "US Press Releases "
CALABASAS, CA -- (MARKET WIRE) -- 12/21/07 -- TMM Inc. (PINKSHEETS: TMMI) announced today that it has completed negotiations with Tom Simpson and the principals of Digital Focus Inc. , and their company doing business as TruDef Industries, to acquire all of their rights to enhancement work done of the TMMI fractal video codec developed in the 1990s.
The codec had been modified to successfully compress digital video solving issues that previously prevented fractal compression to work in full motion video.
The company announces it has received the enhanced version of the codec and are working on preliminary testing and product development of the next generation TruDef codec, details of which will be announced in the near future.
Fractal compression offers superior image quality than pixel-based compression since images are mathematically encoded, no pixels are saved. Video compressed in TruDef is resolution independent and can be expanded to larger sizes without image degradation inherent with pixel-based compression.
Company President Mike Fernandez stated: "I am happy to have finally completed the arrangements to acquire the enhancement work done on the TMMI fractal video codec. We believe there is a vast market for products that can reduce the file size of high definition video without reducing its quality. After all of these years we are looking forward to showing some examples of the capability of the enhanced fractal compression technology and the features and functionality that it can bring to the emerging market for high definition video."
Tom Simpson stated: "We are all happy to be working again with TMMI to bring a new generation of high definition compression products to the company. The market is searching for tools that can handle the data created by today's new high definition video cameras. We have for years seen the fractal-based product as the best solution to the file size demands of high definition video and the practical constraints of storage of raw high definition video; unfortunately computing power limited the ability of the codec to competitively perform in the video compression market of the 1990s. The new TruDef product can offer quality virtually undetectable from raw with substantial savings of file size."

LXRX (3.11) Lexicon Files Investigational New Drug Application for LX1032 as a Potential Treatment for Carcinoid Syndrome

Friday, December 21 2007 6:28 AM, EST PR Newswire "US Press Releases "
THE WOODLANDS, Texas , Dec. 21 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Lexicon Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (Nasdaq: LXRX) announced today that it has submitted an investigational new drug (IND) application to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for LX1032, an oral drug candidate for managing gastrointestinal symptoms associated with carcinoid syndrome. The initial Phase 1 clinical trial of LX1032 is planned as a double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled, ascending single-dose study in healthy volunteers. This study is designed to evaluate the safety, tolerability, and pharmacokinetics of LX1032. Lexicon expects to initiate clinical trials with LX1032 following FDA review.
"We believe LX1032 has the potential to be an important new therapy in an area of high unmet medical need," said Philip M. Brown, M.D., J.D., vice president of clinical development at Lexicon. "LX1032 may offer important benefits to patients with carcinoid syndrome, who have very limited treatment options."
Carcinoid syndrome is the result of metastatic carcinoid tumors that usually originate from enterochromaffin cells in the lining of the gastrointestinal tract. These tumors secrete large amounts of serotonin, which causes a variety of symptoms that often includes severe diarrhea and abdominal discomfort. Carcinoid tumors are a type of neuroendocrine tumor and, according to the American Cancer Society , about 11,000 to 12,000 neuroendocrine tumors and neuroendocrine cancers are diagnosed each year in the United States . About 10% of people with carcinoid tumors will develop carcinoid syndrome.
The target for LX1032 was identified through the Genome5000(TM) project, Lexicon's program to identify the function of 5,000 druggable genes in the human genome. LX1032 was developed at Lexicon as a potent inhibitor of tryptophan hydroxylase (TPH), a rate-limiting enzyme in the synthesis of serotonin. In preclinical studies, LX1032 was able to reduce peripheral serotonin in several different species without affecting serotonin levels in the brain. LX1032 is Lexicon's second compound to target TPH and, unlike LX1031, which acts locally within the gastrointestinal tract, was designed to act systemically.
LX1032 is being developed in a product development collaboration with Symphony Capital Partners, L.P. and its co-investors.
About Lexicon
Lexicon is a biopharmaceutical company focused on the discovery and development of breakthrough treatments for human disease. Lexicon currently has development programs underway for such areas of major unmet medical need as irritable bowel syndrome, cognitive disorders, and autoimmune diseases. The company has used its proprietary gene knockout technology to discover more than 100 promising drug targets and create an extensive pipeline of clinical and preclinical programs in the therapeutic areas of diabetes and obesity, cardiovascular disease, psychiatric and neurological disorders, cancer, immune system disorders and ophthalmic disease.

vral (.035)Viral Genetics Announces Licensing Deal With University of Colorado and V-Clip Pharmaceuticals, Inc.

Thursday, December 20 2007 3:37 PM, EST Market Wire "US Press Releases "
AZUSA, CA -- (MARKET WIRE) -- 12/20/07 -- Viral Genetics, Inc. (PINKSHEETS: VRAL), a biotechnology company that discovers and develops immune-based therapies for HIV and AIDS using its thymus nuclear protein ("TNP") compound, has entered into several agreements with the University of Colorado and V-Clip Pharmaceuticals, Inc. relating to the exclusive worldwide rights to patent applications and know-how developed by Dr. Karen Newell, PhD, of the University of Colorado at Colorado Springs in the fields of diagnosing and treating HIV/AIDS, Hepatitis C, and Herpes.
The rights have been acquired under an Exclusive License Agreement between the University of Colorado , Viral Genetics, and V-Clip Pharmaceuticals, Inc. V-Clip Pharmaceuticals was formed specifically for the acquisition of the license and its shareholders are Viral Genetics, University License Equity Holdings, Inc. (the University of Colorado's equity holding arm), Karen Newell, Evan Newell, PhD, Robert Berliner, and Dr. Robert Melamede. Following the successful completion of tests described below, Viral Genetics has the right to acquire V-Clip Pharmaceuticals in exchange for shares, options and warrants.
The licensed rights include several important patent applications that may explain the mechanism of action of the Company's TNP compound, including the reductions in HIV viral load observed in the Company's recent South African HIV/AIDS clinical trial.
The rights relate to modulating the immune system up or down, and to causing a process called apoptosis. This is accomplished using small protein fragments (called peptides) to displace other "bad" peptides that have been picked up by immune system cells. These so-called bad peptides sometimes result from the body's natural attempts to fight off viruses, bacteria, and various diseases, including HIV/AIDS. Apoptosis is the body's process of killing off harmful cells, and is believed to be an important factor in the control of a variety of illnesses.
A key area of Dr. Newell's research is based upon the idea that certain of these harmful peptides result in a harmful immune response that may not only hurt a person's ability to fight off an illness, but perhaps even cause certain autoimmune diseases. As a result, she developed a model for the types of chemical compounds that could displace these harmful peptides and allow the immune system to respond more beneficially. After preliminary analysis of TNP it is believed that it contains several peptides that fit the model's profile. Viral Genetics, V-Clip and Dr. Newell now plan to move forward with various studies of the TNP components to verify this.
To this end, Viral Genetics has agreed to complete these tests at an approximate cost of $600,000 . Viral Genetics intends to finance this testing itself, which would require private placement or other sales of Viral Genetics securities, or through grant funding from public and private sources. It is Viral Genetics' intention to acquire V-Clip upon successful completion of this testing.
"Upon completion, the proposed studies would provide the 'proof of principle' necessary to move forward with clinical trials in US. With this information we will be seeking an optimized and purified version of the current TNP compound to determine if it is capable of a stronger antiviral result while maintaining the low toxicity and side effect profile seen in Viral Genetics' prior studies. As importantly, the results of the proposed studies are expected to help identify a next and possibly improved generation of rationally designed biological therapies for HIV/AIDS," said Dr. Newell.
Dr. Newell is Associate Professor in the Department of Biology at the University of Colorado , Scientific Director of the CU Institute of Bioenergetics , the Clement and Margaret Markert Endowed Professor of Biology, Associate Director, Center for Computational Biology , and Adjunct Assistant Professor at Dartmouth Medical College . She has authored or co-authored several dozen peer-reviewed papers predominantly focused on immunology and cellular metabolism, and she has over 30 issued or pending patents.
"We look forward to the results of Dr. Newell's studies. These studies may shed important insight unto the mechanism of TNP and hopefully we will discover which peptides within TNP have the greatest anti-HIV effect. This would allow us to optimize the compound prior to the next round of clinical trials," said Dr. Eric Rosenberg, Associate Professor of Medicine at Harvard Medical School and Chairman of the Viral Genetics Scientific Advisory Board.
The Exclusive License Agreement includes various royalties and milestone payments that are payable to the University of Colorado upon certain events including sales of diagnostic or therapeutic products, certain FDA milestones, and other events. Viral Genetics has also agreed to various other performance milestones.
"Dr. Newell's basic scientific research and discoveries appear to compliment the over 10 years of human clinical experience we at Viral Genetics have. The acquisition of these rights holds significant promise to finally close the circle on our understanding of TNP including identifying exactly what it is and exactly how it works," said Haig Keledjian, President of Viral Genetics.
The Company is now working with the University of Colorado on completion of a Sponsored Research Agreement, which will outline a program of research to be performed by Dr. Newell at her lab.
In a 2005-2006 study, a reduction of HIV viral load was observed in a subset of patients after treatment with VGV-1 versus patients receiving placebo. As reported by Dr. Patrick Bouic in the Company's poster presentation at the 2006 XVI International AIDS Conference, VGV-1 treated subjects also demonstrated apparent beneficial immunological changes when compared with placebo.
The World Health Organization estimates approximately 40 million people are now living with HIV. Even with the available treatments for AIDS, there are large numbers of people that need alternative therapies and hope remains that progress will be made in discovering new therapies that bolster patients' immune systems.
About VGV-1
VGV-1 is a therapy based on thymus nuclear protein which is extracted from bovine thymus tissue. As a type of immune-based therapy, it focuses on boosting the immune system to allow the body to fight HIV more efficiently. Thymus nuclear protein technology has been studied in five human clinical trials for the treatment of HIV infection and AIDS.
About Viral Genetics
Viral Genetics, Inc. is a biotechnology company that discovers and develops immune-based therapies for HIV and AIDS using its thymus nuclear protein compound. This compound may have other potential applications for other infectious, autoimmune, and immunological deficiency diseases that the company intends to study in the future. Viral Genetics believes that VGV-1 represents a significant and unique approach to treating HIV due to the apparently novel mechanism, low toxicity profile, simple dosing regimen, and short-course of treatment.

The 43-101 Report outlines a production forecast for 2008, amounting to 2.8 million ounces of silver with additional copper and lead credits, based on an average milling rate of 479 dry short tons per day for the year. Building on this startup mill throughput for 2008, Sterling anticipates a steady increase in production over the next three years until an average daily processing rate of 1,000 tons per day is achieved.
The first shipment of concentrate, which left the Mine site this morning for Teck Cominco's Trail British Columbia smelter, comes from processing of newly mined ores.
Also this week, Sunshine Mine has resumed mining activities on lower levels after a methodical and intense four-year process to rehabilitate, improve and re-commission the Mine after its closure by previous operators in 2001.
With renovation of the Silver Summit hoist and rehabilitation of the Silver Summit shaft to the 3000 foot level, Sunshine Mine's secondary escapeway system is now complete. Sterling crews are resuming mining activities from 2700 foot and 3100 foot level workplaces idled at closure. Ores from these levels, at closure, averaged 23.6 ounces of silver per ton. In addition to mining activities being resumed on the lower levels, crews are also processing material from Upper Country drifting and exploration.
Sterling's President Ray De Motte said, "The credit for this historical event goes to the men and women at the Sunshine Mine. Without their expertise, teamwork and relentless efforts this simply would not be possible. We are grateful to the community, employees, vendors, support of shareholders, investors and investment bankers TD Securities Inc. and Blackmont Capital Inc. , and look forward to achieving our goal of long-term sustainable production."
To commemorate achieving this major milestone, Sterling Mining has scheduled a ribbon-cutting ceremony and celebration for February 2008 , details for which will be announced in a subsequent press release.
Sterling Mining Company will provide updates on production and development activities going forward.

LOS ANGELES , Dec. 20 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- BioGold Fuels Corporation (TM) (OTC Bulletin Board: CBVA) is in negotiations for a joint venture to build waste to energy processing plants in Europe with a United Kingdom company, one of the leaders in the waste disposal arena.
BioGold, with their joint-venture partner, would pursue the sale of BioGold Fuels' proprietary technology to other bio-fuel manufacturers.
The partnership will also seek projects to set up on their own. It is anticipated that the BioGold technology will be of great interest within the United Kingdom and after penetrating that market, they plan to branch out into the rest of Europe .
About BioGold Fuels(TM) Corporation
BioGold Fuels(TM) Corporation is seeking to develop, acquire, license and commercialize patented and proprietary technologies that its management believes will allow a significant amount of municipal solid waste to be recycled into synthetic diesel fuel and other renewable fuels to address the multi-billion dollar diesel fuel market in the United States and the world. A major component of MSW is paper-based material, hydrocarbon-based material, and other high-energy value feedstocks.

There can be no assurance that BioGold Fuels will in fact be successful in raising subsequent financing in order to build synthetic diesel production facilities to implement its business strategy. Other risk factors may include, but are not limited to, BioGold Fuels' ability to successfully implement its business strategy, including its ability to develop and construct its planned facilities, to produce and sell product at commercial levels and adequate prices and the acceptance of its product by potential customers and by the market in general, the ability of BioGold Fuels to achieve profitability even if it is able to sell its product at commercial levels, BioGold Fuels' ability to develop synthetic diesel fuel from MSW, fluctuations in quarterly results, increased competition, and BioGold Fuels' ability to protect the proprietary technology it uses. Further, BioGold Fuels operates in an industry sector where securities values are highly volatile and may be influenced by economic and other factors beyond BioGold Fuels' control, such as announcements by competitors and service providers.

trgd (.33) Tara Gold Partners Its Picacho, Curcurpe and Millonaria Projects

Thursday, December 20 2007 2:51 PM, EST Market Wire "US Press Releases "
CHICAGO, IL -- (MARKET WIRE) -- 12/20/07 -- Tara Gold Resources Corp. (PINKSHEETS: TRGD) ( FRANKFURT : T8N) is very pleased to announce binding commitments to purchase a 70% undivided interest in Tara Gold's Picacho, Curcurpe and Millonaria Projects by La Camera Mining Inc. Tara Gold will retain a 30% carried interest in all properties once Camera earns its 70%.
For Picacho, La Camera will spend $6 mil over the next 3.5 years, make the underlying property payments, and issue 1,500,000 shares of La Camera to Tara. The partners are excited about better defining existing structures and exploring the numerous targets that have been identified. La Camera will also provide the capital and operating funds necessary to put Picacho back into full-scale production in 2008. The new agreement also addresses the previous dissolution of the Lateegra Gold Corp. option with no claim of gain or liability against Tara Gold or Lateegra Gold. Furthermore, all past payments of cash and shares, made by Lateegra, will remain the property of Tara Gold.
For Curcurpe, La Camera will spend $3.75 million over the next 3.5 years and make all underlying property payments. The exploration program will test identified targets through systematic groundwork and drilling.
For Millonaria, La Camera will spend $3.75 million over the next 3.5 years and make all underlying property payments. The program will aggressively explore the extensive 40-metre-wide vein system that runs through Millonaria and conduct a regional survey towards testing the larger potential as illustrated by the close proximity of Millonaria to both the Palmarejo and the El Sauzal mines.
Mr. Francis Biscan, Jr., President of Tara Gold Resources, stated, "We believe we have found a quality partner with La Camera. These Agreements more than adequately provide Tara with the cash that it requires to maintain all of its project interests and allows the company to advance these superior assets simultaneously. We believe that each of these three projects has large scale potential and that well executed work programs will expose the tremendous value of these assets for Tara and La Camera. 2008 now promises to be a year where we will see activity on all of our properties. We continue to generate revenue from La Currita and expect to see revenue from Lluvia de Oro in 2008, and now Picacho. We are very pleased with our new relationship with Camera and look forward to working with their team."

CTGX (5.55) CTG Announces Extension of 10b5-1 Plan to Facilitate Share Repurchases

Thursday, December 20 2007 2:38 PM, EST PR Newswire "US Press Releases "
BUFFALO, N.Y. , Dec. 20 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- CTG (Nasdaq: CTGX), an international information technology (IT) staffing and solutions company, today announced that it extended a stock repurchase plan under Rule 10b5-1 of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "Company 10b5-1 Plan") to facilitate the repurchase of its common stock under its outstanding repurchase authorizations. The Company has approximately 420,000 shares available for repurchase at December 20, 2007 under previous authorizations.
"We are extending our 10b5-1 plan implemented earlier in the year because it gives us the ability to repurchase shares during our self-imposed blackout periods prior to the announcement of quarterly results," said CTG Chairman and Chief Executive Officer James R. Boldt. "We also believe CTG's shares remain attractively valued and intend to continue actively repurchasing our stock in 2008."
The plan is being administered by Boenning & Scattergood, Inc. and is effective from January 7, 2008 until the day following the Company's release of its 2007 fourth quarter financial results. CTG adopted the initial 10b5-1 plan on April 5, 2007 to allow for the repurchase of shares during the time following the close of a quarter and the announcement of quarterly financial results when its self-imposed stock repurchase policy does not allow for the direct purchase of shares by the Company. The Company also intends to utilize the plan for its self-imposed blackout periods during each of the quarters in 2008. Repurchases are subject to SEC regulations as well as certain price, market, volume and timing constraints specified in the plan. The plan does not require that any shares be purchased.
Backed by over 40 years' experience, CTG provides IT staffing, application management outsourcing, consulting, and software development and integration solutions to help Global 2000 clients focus on their core businesses and use IT as a competitive advantage to excel in their markets. CTG combines in-depth understanding of our clients' businesses with a full range of integrated services and proprietary ISO 9001:2000-certified service methodologies. Our IT professionals based in an international network of offices in North America and Europe have a proven track record of delivering solutions that work. More information about CTG is available on the Web at http://www.ctg.com.
This document contains certain forward-looking statements concerning the Company's current expectations as to future growth. These statements are based upon a review of industry reports, current business conditions in the areas where the Company does business, the availability of qualified professional staff, the demand for the Company's services, and other factors that involve risk and uncertainty. As such, actual results may differ materially in response to a change in such factors. Such forward-looking statements should be read in conjunction with the Company's disclosures set forth in the Company's 2006 Form 10-K and Management's Discussion and Analysis section of the Company's 2006 annual report, which are incorporated by reference. The Company assumes no obligation to update the forward-looking information contained in this release.

apgr (1.5) Alpine TLI Group, Inc. Announces Upgraded Trading Status and Plans to Capture Market Share in $10 Billion Tax Lien Market

Thursday, December 20 2007 2:45 PM, EST Market Wire "US Press Releases "
PLEASANT GROVE, UT -- (MARKET WIRE) -- 12/20/07 -- Alpine TLI Group, Inc. (PINKSHEETS: APGR), a full service tax lien and tax deed purchase, research, and property management company, announced today that it has achieved upgraded trading status through the approval of Form 15c211 Information and Disclosure Statement by the National Association of Securities Dealers (NASD). Improved access to the public markets with increased transparency and tradability by our shareholders allows the Company to accelerate its approach to capturing market share in the growing tax lien sales market.
There will be over 2,000 tax lien sales during 2008, with an ever-increasing opportunity to participate in online sales. It is estimated that over $10 Billion in tax lien certificates are offered for sale annually. It is also estimated that due to the inherent leverage of a tax lien, this could represent over $1 Trillion in property value for the purchasers of these tax lien certificates. Alpine's business model is structured to research, identify and capture a significant portion of the $10 Billion in tax liens offered each year.
M. Taylor Abegg, II, Chief Executive Officer of Alpine TLI Group, Inc. , stated, "The tax sales industry is a proven market and has been around for more than 100 years. The bottom line is county governments need money to operate and provide many important and useful services for their citizens. Their primary funding source for these services is property taxes. If these taxes are not paid, the government has the authority to lien the property for the unpaid taxes. The counties are then authorized to sell these liens to investors, like Alpine, allowing the county to receive funds to operate with the investor receiving a high rate of return. Exceptional returns are obtainable if taxes are not paid during a specified period of time, allowing the tax lien owner to obtain the property, free and clear of all encumbrances. As a result, for those who understand the industry, such as Alpine, the profit potential can be enormous."
About ALPINE TLI GROUP, Inc.
ALPINE TLI GROUP, Inc. is a full service tax lien and tax deed purchase, research, and property management company. Alpine specializes in identifying and researching properties that have the propensity of creating highly leveraged investment opportunities through the purchase of real estate tax lien certificates and tax deeds.
Tax lien certificates are typically acquired by Alpine for 1% to 20% of the property value. If the lien is redeemed by the property owner, a return of 4% to 25% APR is realized by Alpine. If the lien is not redeemed, the deed to the property is granted to Alpine, free and clear of all encumbrances. Tax deeds are typically acquired by Alpine for 20% to 60% of the property value. Alpine is then in a position to improve, develop or liquidate the property at a profit. More information on Alpine TLI Group is available online at http://www.AlpineTLIGroup.com/

tdwv (.0002) TidalWave Holdings, Inc. Comments on Recent Trading Activity and Proposed Forward Split

Thursday, December 20 2007 2:47 PM, EST Market Wire "US Press Releases "
TALLAHASSEE, FL -- (MARKET WIRE) -- 12/20/07 -- TidalWave Holdings, Inc. (PINKSHEETS: TDWV), a publicly held holding company, today commented on the recent trading activity of its common stock and proposed forward split.
Over the last three weeks, the common stock value of TidalWave Holdings has drastically declined and some investors have communicated their concerns regarding the impact the company itself may or may have on the trading activity. The company will address these concerns in an open and forthright manner.
The company recently announced a 5-for-1 forward stock split and filed paperwork with the State of Florida to authorize the forward split the first week in December. At the time, management believed that such a split would inject liquidity and help expand the company's shareholder base. The company believes that once this was announced and confirmed filed with the State of Florida , market forces reacted negatively, albeit prematurely, to a potential 5-fold increase of the company's shares in the open market.
At the present, given the subsequent current market condition of the company's share price, a forward split is not feasible at this time and would result in potential trading of the company's shares at levels that would be inherently illiquid to shareholders. The company is exploring a range of several other options, including a possible restricted preferred or common stock dividend that could provide existing shareholders a means of receiving additional shares as an alternative to a forward split. If adopted, this type of dividend would not immediately add additional shares into the open market.
For further questions, shareholders are encouraged to contact TidalWave investor relations.
Safe Harbor for Forward-Looking Statements
Except for historical information contained herein, the statements in this news release are forward-looking statements that are made pursuant to the safe harbor provisions of the Private Securities Reform Act of 1995. Forward-looking statements involve known and unknown risks and uncertainties, which may cause the company's actual results in the future periods to differ materially from forecasted results.

gacf (.41) Global Aircraft Solutions Closes $10,000,000 Debt Financing

Thursday, December 20 2007 2:35 PM, EST Market Wire "US Press Releases "
TUCSON, AZ -- (MARKET WIRE) -- 12/20/07 -- Global Aircraft Solutions, Inc. (OTCBB: GACF) today announced that it has issued a non-convertible debenture in the amount of $10,000,000 to two institutional investors. The debenture matures in one-year from closing and accrues interest at a rate of 15% per annum. The debenture is secured by a first priority lien on all current and future assets of the Company, and provides for a cash flow recapture of 60% of any sale proceeds related to the Company's aircraft inventory. As an inducement to purchase the debentures, the Company issues a Warrant entitling them to 1,500,000 shares of common stock. The Warrant shall have an exercise price equal to 105% of the VWAP, a five-year term, and a cashless exercise feature.
The Company will utilize the financing proceeds to repay all existing indebtedness, pay down certain accounts payable, and fund operating capital.
The Company also announced that it will hold a shareholders conference call on January 3, 2008 at 4:15PM . The exact call-in numbers of the conference call will be provided in a subsequent press release. At that time management will provide a more detailed financial and operational update, and answer investors' questions.
Ian Herman, Chairman and CEO of Global Aircraft Solutions, commented, "This $10,000,000 financing will provide the liquidity needed to move the Company forward in a positive manner as we enter 2008. This is essentially a bridge financing that will allow the Company to pursue the collection of receivables and the sale of assets from a financial position much more conducive to maximizing the value of those receivables and assets. We fully anticipate that this new financing will result in improved financial results from our operating units. Once we have converted some of our larger receivables and assets to cash, and have improved operating results, we then intend to replace as quickly as possible the current short-term debt financing with a more traditional long-term credit facility. We believe that this capital injection provides us with the ability to acquire profitable business that we have been forced to forgo, and sets the stage for us to enter 2008 with the financial stability required of a capital intensive business."

lgcp (.2) Lincoln Gold Announces Revised Gold Resource Estimates for Its Pine Grove Property, Nevada

Thursday, December 20 2007 2:31 PM, EST Market Wire "US Press Releases "
VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA -- (MARKET WIRE) -- 12/20/07 -- LINCOLN GOLD CORP. (OTCBB: LGCP) announces that it has revised the results of its gold resource estimate on the Company's 100%-controlled Pine Grove gold property located in the Pine Grove Hills, 20 miles south of Yerington, Nevada . These estimates were originally disclosed in the Company's news release dated October 19, 2007 .
The revised resource estimate is compliant with Canadian National Instrument 43-101 and was prepared by MineFill Services, Inc. of Vancouver , B.C., Canada in accordance with definitions of the Canadian Institute of Mining and Metallurgy's Standards on Mineral Resources and Mineral Reserves adopted in December 2005 . The data base consists of 160 reverse circulation holes totaling 53,000 ft drilled by Teck Resources in the early 1990's. Drilling was conducted largely on 100 ft to 200 ft centers on two gold deposits, the Wheeler and the Wilson. The two deposits are about 2,500 ft apart with excellent access. Potential exists for open pit mining and heap-leach processing.
At a cutoff grade of 0.010 opt gold and high assays capped at 0.5 opt gold, the Wheeler and Wilson deposits presently contain combined inferred resources of 6.06 million tons grading 0.053 opt gold containing 320,000 ozs gold.
The Company original reported both indicated and inferred resources on the Pine Grove Property in its October 19, 2007 news release. The Company has since downgraded the indicated resources referred to in that release to inferred resources as the indicated resources could not be supported as a result of the lack of the required quality control/quality assurance program. The inferred resources are referenced in the NI 43-101 compliant technical report dated September 28, 2007 , as amended December 4, 2007 , prepared by David M. R. Stone of Minefill Services, Inc. A copy of this technical report was filed with the British Columbia Securities Commission on December 18, 2007 . Investors may view the technical report on the web site of the Canadian Securities Administrators at www.sedar.com. Investors are cautioned not to rely on the disclosure of indicated resources included in the October 19, 2007 news release.
Mineral resources for the Wheeler and Wilson deposits at various cutoff grades, as presented in the technical report, are summarized below:

isco (1.0) Progress reported in making immune-tolerant stem cell lines [North County Times, Escondido, Calif.]

Thursday, December 20 2007 2:23 PM, EST Knight Ridder/Tribune "Business News "
Dec. 20 --OCEANSIDE -- A report of a major advance in stem cell research propelled shares of International Stem Cell Corp. to a 71 percent gain Wednesday. Stock in the Oceanside-based company rose 41 cents per share, or 68 percent, closing at $1.01 apiece.
However, stem cell experts said the progress, while respectable, falls short of a breakthrough.
International Stem Cell has produced stem cells that are less likely to cause immune rejection if transplanted into patients, Jeff Krstich, chief executive, said Wednesday. This makes it more economically feasible to create varieties, or lines, of stem cells that could be turned into replacement cells or organs, he said. The company is developing stem cells from unfertilized human egg cells. These "parthenogenic" cells appear to act like human embryonic stem cells. These cells have been transformed into what appears to be functional heart, corneal and nerve cells.
Because they were not created from human embryos, the company says its research sidesteps objections from opponents who say that because human embryos are killed in other techniques to get stem cells, human lives are sacrificed, making such research immoral. A paper describing the company's feat was published online Wednesday in the scientific publication Cloning and Stem Cells Journal . It can be found at http://tinyurl.com/2oxdlh.
"It's a nice piece of work," said Rene Reijo Pera, director of the Center for Human Embryonic Stem Cell Research at Stanford University . She said it was of "moderate" significance.
"It's not a huge advance. We knew this could be done," Pera said. Still, Pera said the research is significant because it demonstrated how to apply the theory in practice.
"These lines will match a large percentage of the population," Pera said. "It's very interesting."
A lot of work remains to be done to make human stem cell therapy feasible, Pera said. The stem cell lines must also be reliably transformed into the right kind of replacement cells and coaxed into forming functional organs.
Stem cells are the "ancestral" cells that differentiate into the various kinds of tissues and organs in the human body. Individual humans have an immune system identity determined by genetics. Stem cells from a donor that fail to match those of the recipient trigger an immune reaction, similar to that occurring with transplanted organs. Immunosuppressive drugs are required to prevent rejection.
To get a close enough match to avoid rejection, Krstich said hundreds of thousands or even millions of stem cell lines would be needed. But using the method developed by Elena Revazova, the company's chief scientist, that number could be reduced to as few as 50 cell lines to cover the entire world's population, Krstich said.
Working with fewer stem cell lines means that researchers can devote more attention to perfecting each one of them, Pera said. But Robertson Parkman, a prominent stem cell researcher at the University of Southern California , said the 50-cell line estimate was too optimistic. A few thousand cell lines made by that method would probably be needed, he said.
That's because the method deals with just one complex of genes that controls immune identity, not affecting others, he said. It would be fair to say that the method could potentially allow a lower level of immunosuppressive drugs to be used, Parkman said. It's not necessary to create matches to the entire human population if you're mainly interested in treating Americans, said Larry Goldstein, head of the stem cell research program at UCSD.
That's because most Americans come from a relatively narrow genetic profile, he said. The mainly European-descended population is less genetically diverse than humans in other parts of the world, especially in Africa . Goldstein said the trouble with that approach is it is discriminatory. Stem cell lines created to fit a European genetic profile would mainly benefit white Americans. That would leave African-Americans and other racial groups of non-European ancestry disadvantaged.

CEGE (2.40) Cell Genesys Announces Sale of Lentiviral Gene Delivery Technology for $12 Million

Thursday, December 20 2007 2:19 PM, EST PR Newswire "US Press Releases "
SOUTH SAN FRANCISCO, Calif ., and GREENWICH, Conn., Dec. 20 /PRNewswire- FirstCall/ -- Cell Genesys, Inc. (Nasdaq: CEGE) and GBP IP, LLC , an affiliate of GBP Capital, the majority shareholder in privately held Lentigen Corporation , today announced that the two companies have entered into an asset sale agreement relating to Cell Genesys' lentiviral gene delivery technology, commonly referred to as lentiviral vectors. Pursuant to the agreement, Cell Genesys has received a payment of $12 million from GBP IP, LLC in exchange for all intellectual property and previously established licensing agreements relating to its lentiviral gene delivery technology. Cell Genesys will retain rights to use the technology for research and development purposes, including potential future use with cancer immunotherapy products.
"We are pleased to have entered into this agreement with GBP IP, LLC and Lentigen, a leader in the field of lentiviral gene delivery technology, and wish them every success in the further development of this important technology," stated Robert Tidwell, senior vice president of corporate development at Cell Genesys. "This agreement reflects Cell Genesys' ongoing commitment and ability to leverage its non-core business assets and in so doing build shareholder value."
Over the years, Cell Genesys has successfully leveraged its non-core business assets through strategic spin outs and outlicensing agreements. In 1996, Cell Genesys spun out its antibody technology creating Abgenix, a company that was acquired in 2005 by Amgen for approximately $2.6 billion . In 2001, Cell Genesys launched Ceregene, a privately held company that is focused on developing gene therapies for neurodegenerative disorders. Cell Genesys currently holds approximately 16 percent ownership in Ceregene. In addition, Cell Genesys has outlicensed various non-core technologies including other gene delivery technology and gene activation technology resulting in over $60 million in non-dilutive financing.
"We are pleased to initiate the intellectual property portfolio of GBP IP with this premiere set of lentiviral vector intellectual property assets from Cell Genesys," commented GBP Capital's managing partner, Dr. Douglas Lind. "Cell Genesys has been at the forefront of lentiviral vector technology development. This technology shows great promise to impact the fields of vaccine manufacturing, protein production, cell and gene therapy, and RNA interference."
Management of the portfolio, including patent prosecution and license management, has been assigned to Lentigen Corporation . Dr. Lind further added, "Lentigen's technical prominence in the field and its collaborative business strategy make it well suited to rapidly leverage the value of the Cell Genesys portfolio." Parties with interest in further information may contact Dr. Greg Feulner at Lentigen as noted below.
"We are delighted that Lentigen will be able to develop and commercialize Cell Genesys' lentiviral vector IP estate," commented Lentigen's Founder and CEO Dr. Boro Dropulic. "Lentiviral vector technology has enormous potential as research and drug discovery tools, a manufacturing platform for biologics, and for the development of novel genetic therapies. We intend to develop this technology in each of these areas in collaboration with our existing and future partners." Dr. Dropulic further added, "With this acquisition GBP Capital continues to demonstrate remarkable vision and commitment to the future of cell and gene therapy."
About Lentiviral Vectors
Lentiviral vectors are modified viruses that are used to transfer a therapeutic gene into a target cell, either ex vivo or in vivo. In preclinical studies, lentivirus vectors developed by Cell Genesys, have demonstrated safe, efficient and long-lasting gene transfer into a variety of human cells including both dividing and non-dividing cells such as nerve, liver, muscle and bone marrow stem cells. Lentiviral vectors, which are more efficient at targeting non-dividing cells than traditional retroviral vectors, have a larger gene delivery capacity than certain other gene delivery vectors and therefore hold the potential to be used to deliver a wider range of therapeutic genes.
About Cell Genesys
Cell Genesys is focused on the development and commercialization of novel biological therapies for patients with cancer. The company is currently pursuing two clinical stage product platforms -- GVAX(TM) cancer immunotherapies and oncolytic virus therapies. Ongoing clinical trials include Phase 3 trials of GVAX immunotherapy for prostate cancer, Phase 2 trials of GVAX immunotherapies for pancreatic cancer and for leukemia, and a Phase 1 trial of CG0070 oncolytic virus therapy for bladder cancer. Cell Genesys is headquartered in South San Francisco, CA and has its principal manufacturing operation in Hayward, CA. For additional information, please visit the company's website at http://www.cellgenesys.com .

"We believe that our process of identifying, correcting and protecting buildings from mold and water damage is superior to the traditional costly and independently segmented methods prevalent in the industry today," added Mr. Davidson. "We believe that our single-source Trinity process will be beneficial for owners, builders, managers and occupants who recognize the value of improved indoor air quality and protection against contaminants," concluded Mr. Davidson.
American Mold Guard's full-service program includes its existing structural decontamination and protective coating treatments and now includes a complete range of services including building and diagnostic assessment and inspections, indoor air quality testing, complete mold decontamination, and a series of preventive maintenance programs plus water intrusion emergency response. Services are available for new construction and during occupied phases of multi-family and commercial buildings.
