LOS ANGELES, Oct. 6 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Founder Josef Joebstl points to his Stealth AirStar beneath what he calls, "the Green Machine" smiling, "This is the Golden Fleece of Environmental Protection Compliance and the Helicopter will have an array of robotic sampling equipment on board with laboratory grade testing capabilities in a completely self contained turn key solution. This is a tool for our protection from cancers and diseases caused by industrial waste and toxic pollution. We have all lost loved ones and this is for our children's children".
Mr. Joebstl, a concerned parent and Green advocate, began working on inspections of 300 foot smoke stacks, which he operated a remote controlled UAV helicopter from 1000 feet away to within a few feet from the mouth of the towering chimney. AirStar provided independent air sampling for analysis, which was the starting point of any legal action or system of keeping industrial poisoning in check.
AirStar Green Planet provides Aerial Environmental Compliance and will have an array of optional robotics and measuring equipment for air, soil and water sampling for hazardous materials and industrial waste and pollution compliance. Capabilities will include:
Air Samples UVTOL Aerial monitoring of smoke stacks at industrial sites for toxic emissions remote controlled from 10 miles distance from target site of interest.
Ground Samples UVTOL Aerial delivery platform which provides monitoring of ground based testing and collection of soil samples in restricted and dangerous areas that are located in difficult to reach terrain including swamps, volcanoes, hazardous materials sites, industrial waste sites, industrial restoration sites for toxic emissions remote controlled from 10 miles distance from target site of interest.
Water Samples UVTOL Aerial delivery platform which provides monitoring of water based testing and collection of water samples in restricted and dangerous areas that are located in difficult to reach areas including swamps, wetlands, marshes, lakes, rivers, estuaries and coastal areas guarding against oil spills, illegal dumping, water pollution remote controlled from 10 miles distance from target site of interest.
The federal government takes marine pollution seriously. Air Star Green Planet marine pollution surveillance equipment will aid in protecting ocean resources for the benefit of coastal communities while protecting fragile marine ecosystems. These surveillance systems will assist in the detection, classification and tracking of all targets of potential interest and marine oil spills. We will market our services to Green constituents and become known as the Green Police, the Good guys who protect us from poisonous emissions and pollution and keeps industries compliant with EPA.
Evidence gathered by AirStar Green Planet equipment will be used by Federal, State and local agencies to enforce the provisions of all legislation applicable to illegal discharges from ships, including the US Shipping Act and the Migratory Birds Convention Act. Internationally, aerial surveillance is widely adopted and considered to be the most effective method for the detection of oil spills and is the principle method available for detecting any illegal discharges at sea. AirStar Green Planet will provide the vehicle and testing equipment, which will improve the accountability with accurate testing and mandatory compliance. AirStar Green Planet is the turn-key solution for EPA compliant testing. Our service is routinely used to provide real time data, which improves the air quality testing with increased frequency of pollution patrols, and expansion of pollution surveillance to areas that are not normally patrolled.

MDOR NEWS: Magnum Adds New Wholly Owned Subsidiary, Magnum Engineering International, to Accommodate Further Expansion Plans
FT. LAUDERDALE, Fla., Oct. 5 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Magnum D'Or Resources, Inc. (OTC Bulletin Board: MDOR - News), announces the formation of its latest wholly owned subsidiary, "Magnum Engineering International, Inc. (MEI)." Magnum also makes preparations for receiving tires and equipment at the Hudson, Colorado site.
The recent incorporation of Magnum's latest subsidiary, MEI, is meant to accommodate the recent barrage of inquiries from investors and companies wanting Magnum to provide engineering and facility design services. With this recent incorporation Magnum creates a well rounded and dynamic group. MEI will serve as the engineering arm of the Magnum group of companies and will be involved in all design and engineering aspects. MEI will also offer services and solutions to third parties.
Magnum President and CEO, Joseph Glusic stated, "This is yet another step forward for Magnum that will satisfy a market that we have been neglecting until recently due to our focus on our own facilities. This has been in the works for quite some time, and we have now accumulated all the necessary elements and the technical expertise to move forward. It also gives us the structure needed to accommodate further acquisitions and joint projects throughout the world. As we continue to develop new relationships, our corporate structure will evolve to accommodate these ventures. The role of MEI and its importance will become clearer in the coming few weeks as we complete and announce some of the very important tasks at hand. I am very excited with the most recent events and am looking forward to our upcoming media campaign that will inform the world of just who Magnum is and what we are capable of producing."
Magnum is also please to announce final preparations are under way at the Hudson, Colorado site to accommodate the initial delivery of processing equipment and the acceptance of tires.
Bryan Brammer, Chief Operating Officer of Magnum USA stated, "We have been working tirelessly since our official ownership took place to bring the site up to the standard we expect at Magnum. I believe we are now ready to begin business and operations pending final approval of our permits and licenses. We have been engaged with the State and County to ensure that Magnum is, and will be, in full compliance with all applicable regulations. This site has been, and will continue to be, a sensitive issue due to its shear size and magnitude. We have committed ourselves to making the Hudson site a first class recycling facility not just for the State of Colorado but for our industry and the entire country."
Magnum's 98,000+ sq. ft. facility is located in Magog (Quebec). Magnum currently holds over $130 Million in open contracts for the production of rubber nuggets and rubber buffings. Magnum's proprietary "GREEN" technology provides a one-of-a-kind solution to all of the challenges in eliminating stockpiles of scrap tires and rubber scrap: http://magnumresources.net/gallery/?level=album&id=2
Magnum's Hudson, Colorado facility is approximately 30 miles northeast of Denver. It consists of 120acres high grade commercially zoned land, buildings, equipment, and inventory in excess of 30,000,000+ tires. The facility is one of the largest tire landfills in the world: http://magnumresources.net/gallery/?level=album&id=3

World's First Magnum/SRI Light Truck Tires: http://magnumresources.net/investors/447, http://magnumresources.net/gallery/?level=album&id=5
Magnum/SRI tests & trials target premium applications that contain high grade properties including maximizing cost savings for clients while producing high quality materials. Magnum/SRI Revolutionary compounds are one of a kind because they can be substituted in high specification compound applications without appreciable loss in properties or performance. Furthermore, our clients (markets) will prefer to use Magnum/SRI compounds because they will be able to enjoy a substantial and meaningful reduction in raw material cost without compromising product performance and quality. In the competitive environment of rubber product manufacturing this is a major development having a direct positive impact on our customer's bottom line.
I agree and the companies failure to divulge the financial impact of the AirStar acquisition is totally mystifying. I'm still hanging in there, but I don't know for how much longer.
Makamai
I did my best picking up a bunch on the ask today between .023 and .0235, but the MMs kept the pressure on the cooker and she dropped in spit of my efforts. Dropped my average a little more which is a good thing
Makamai
Someone knows something and has some deeeeep pockets.
Makamai
Welcome to the board...it's kind of hard to fake photos of the plants, especially when you can Google maps and verify their existance. If you are a totally doubting Thomas, you can always physically go to Magog Canada or Hudson Colo and check out their operations and see for yourself as others have. This is not a pinky, this company is on the Nasdaq BB and files SEC documents. They have hired expensive international attornies to maintain their books because they have an international business plan and are slowy and cautiously carrying it out. Despite what the bashers would claim, this company is the real deal and I've been an investor in it for over 5 years, so I ought to know.
Makamai
MDOR Chart - The stock made continued postiive advancements each day this past week and on Friday, we broke through the upper bollinger band. The RSI, MACD and Full Sto all have a nice positive trend and the trend is your friend. It looks like Stockrox wedgie must have crashed and burned...
Makamai
They can't deal with a real company - it's beyong their comprehension. Nice close today for MDOR. I expect more of the same next week.
W6 - do you get the impression that these bashers are getting desperate. Seems nothing they say or do is having any negative effect on the stock price. Magnum is building a solid company here and the price is going up nice and steady as the investment community becomes more aware of the impact their revolutionary products will have on the rubber market. It just keeps getting better and better...
Makamai
The problem is W6, that the bashers don't care about the facts, rather thy get their jollies by pure distortion of the facts. I'm sure that PP will find some fault with that disclosure in the financials that he tried to claim didn't exist. MDOR is here to stay and that, my friend, is a FACT.
Makamai
I think it's obvious that the company is worth more than 360K which is roughly the market cap at the moment - Their next quarterly report will include the merger which should be quite revealing. Hopefully the company will provide financial info prior to that.

The bid side is weak, but that's because there aren't very many MMs trading this stock at the moment. Some folks like U said may just want out to clean up their portfolio and I'll be around to help them out.
Makamai
Thanks Parthox - I was calling the 877 number for JC, so appreciate the alternate. I liked the volume today - hopefully it is an indication of news to come since the promo started on Monday w/o much change in volume the previous 2 days. Have you been told why no financial info has been provided on the AirStar acquisition, other than digging it out of the Cohen report?
Makamai
I couldn't agree more - I appreciate the estimate on OS, I wasn't sure what the OS was before the split but with less than a mil OS now, this stock is almost non liquid - so it will jump all over the place with even a little volume...
Makamai
JC is very evasive and hard to get in touch with. The company needs to find an IR that will do his job in promoting the company and helping to build investor confidence. I haven't spoken with Keith or Joseph, who are they associated with?
Makamai
Does anyone know what the outstanding shares are now? I believe it is very low after the 20:1 split. Any promotion of this stock at all should result in a share price over a buck. I've been bottom fishing and am managing to pick up some cheap shares. Since we finally had at least 1 NR since the merger, I suspect more should shortly follow as well as financials soon.
Makamai
Hey W6 - I've never heard so much pious dribble and truth distortion from the totally uninformed and ignorant as I just finished reading over the last few posts from our band of bashers. In the meantime, the stock price continues to rise, much to their disappointment I'm sure. The company has consistently maintained its transparency by keeping investors informed of progress with frequent NRs, videos and pictures that are factual documents that can't be denied, as opposed to the garbage posts I just read. Any way you slice it, MDOR is a real company with real products that will revolutionize the rubber industry and nothing anyone can say to the contrary will change that..
Makamai
MDOR has far bigger fish to fry - they don't need to go to a conference to get the word out about their products...
Makamai
MDOR CHART: Hey I know you guys have been missing my charts so here you go...The stock has maintained a positive trend in a channel that has followed the middle of the Bollinger band this entire month. The Full Sto and RSI are positive and the MACD remains high. Today there were two 200,000 share buys just prior to closing representing about $500K purchase so someone must figure the shares at this level are cheap and recognizes a good deal when they see it...
Makamai
Excellent detailed explanation Dom - MDOR should post that on their website for a clear and concise explanation. Like I've been saying, Magnum process is far superior to the Delink process and Magnum's test results are proving that.
Makamai
Lets hope so - it certainly has been a long wait. July 22 we opened at .11 and have gradually gone down hill ever since..
Makamai
The OTCQX would be a good option for Dean to consider - see below:

Yea I hear ya...however the only NR the company issued since the merger at least gives hope that there will be some income in the near future - however it certainly would be nice to get some sort of financials to know where we stand at the moment.

MDOR NEWS: Magnum/SRI Moving Ahead With Its Ground Breaking Technology After Successfully Clearing Comprehensive Testing at the Malaysian Rubber Research Institute
· Press Release
· Source: Magnum D'Or Resources, Inc.
· On Thursday September 24, 2009, 6:00 am EDT
FORT LAUDERDALE, Fla., Sept. 24 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Magnum D'Or Resources, Inc. (OTC Bulletin Board: MDOR - News), a next generation rubber recycling solutions company, releases positive data, tests, and reviews. For some time, Magnum/SRI has been utilizing the World Renowned "Malaysia Rubber Research Institute (RRI) facility in Sungai Buloh http://www.lgm.gov.my/ for testing samples and verifying laboratory trials. Further, Magnum/SRI has used the RRI facilities to deal with different compounds and blend them with Magnum/SRI's activated compounds as well as carry out trials to blend such compounds with modified virgin compounds.
The RRI facilities proved to be ideal for duplication of real production conditions through the range of temperatures and processing conditions tested. The RRI facilities have been invaluable in verifying and improving our chemical formulations, as well as, providing unprecedented data that has aided in upgrading and improving Magnum/SRI's activation equipment and processes.
We have just successfully completed a light truck tire made with Magnum/SRI Revolutionary custom compound at the RRI. It was done in accordance with the proposed system specified for volume production in a Banbury. Magnum/SRI has produced viable Light truck compound blends with up to 20% of its Revolutionary custom compound. This material has been subjected to extensive testing that includes; including tensile strength, abrasion resistance, durability, and compound integrity. Results were compared against original materials (OEM virgin light truck tires), as well as, against the standard specifications provided. ALL tests came back within required parameters and specifications, thus passing with flying colors.
Further steps were performed to produce the actual product and have it tested in the RRI's own Tire Laboratory which subjected the newly Revolutionary compound tires to an array of intensive tests that ranged from abrasion resistance test to plunger tests, and operations that included destruction of the tires themselves. These tests required considerable time to perform and analyze the resultant data. Magnum/SRI is happy to report that our production samples have performed exemplary, having equalled the performance, thus far, of the original virgin tires (control samples) in all areas of performance without exception. This in itself is history in the making. In due course, the testing will be completed and Magnum/SRI will be able to use these results, not only to show the ability their Revolutionary custom compounds to perform adequately under strenuous test conditions, but will also provide valuable data for their development work.
At this point Magnum/SRI is proceeding with the acquisition of a light duty truck specified within the operating range of the tires (1 to 3 mt capacity) and will have it submitted for measurements at the RRI test lab. These measurements will begin with on-road verification and validation trials where the tires will be subjected to real operating conditions over their simulated full life expectancies. Loading will be varied as several tires are tested along with control tires following the protocol set by the Test Lab. As per the requirements, the truck will be brought back to take measurements following specified distances travelled. This data is considered critically important since in lab tests are only significant when they are validated in conjunction with the road trial results.
Magnum/SRI has moved further than originally anticipated in this regard and expects to also move ahead with earlier developed Revolutionary custom compounds for retread tires by carrying out similar tests and trials. It should be noted; however, that having gained ground in a much more challenging application than originally planned, Magnum/SRI anticipates little or no problem in making a mark in the retread compound sector believed to be an extremely important product application that Magnum/SRI's low cost process will have the highest impact in the immediate term.
The next testing and validation exercise will be on Magnum/SRI Revolutionary custom compound retread tires and Revolutionary custom compound light truck tires; this is expected to take place at the Tun Abdul Razak Research Centre (Tarrc) http://www.tarrc.co.uk/ in the United Kingdom. There, the products will be subjected to the famous trailer testing program to see how well they perform. These trials are fairly effective in duplicating European road conditions. Their test track is designed to replicate actual conditions and put the tires through their paces.
Although there is no substitute for actual road testing and validation, the Tarrc validation of Magnum/SRI's existing work at the RRI in Malaysia, along with the performance of Magnum/SRI Revolutionary custom compound tires and retread in their trials, will carry a great deal of weight in terms of international recognition.
As these trials continue, work is underway to ensure that the Magnum/SRI activation system is delivered to both the proposed operating units in Magog and Colorado after the 1st quarter of 2010. The scrap tire crumbing units which are in the process of being installed at both locations will be producing the requisite 40 mesh whole tire crumb output from truck, automobile and OTR separately. This 40 mesh crumb will be fed into the activation system, which is modular and allows for easy segregation of material and upgrading of capacity. The modular Magnum/SRI activation system will allow for batch volumes of 250kg to be processed approximately every 20 minutes. Variations will occur based on raw material and local conditions at the site. This will provide an operating capacity of between 500kg/hr to 1mt/hr per unit or module.
The two stage process will result in a low cost, high volume processing system with consistent performance. This is accomplished through incorporation of a low chemical cost per kg output and significantly reduced energy consumption throughout the process. This will result in a fully performing standardized raw material.
The entire Magnum/SRI activation system is designed for low cost operation. Activated compounds can be blended to match required applications that allow for value addition that not only provides good profit margin for Magnum/SRI but also gives the manufacturer a badly needed additional savings in raw material cost without loss or compromise in properties or performance. This effectively means that large scale production units will find the Revolutionary custom compound very attractive as it will result in an immediate reduction in raw material cost.
A full production run of the latest version of the full capacity (250 kg/batch) system, incorporating improved operating parameters and greater operating controls, is expected to be completed within months. Concurrently, Magnum/SRI will be performing work on an improved test unit containing identical performance parameters so that additional trials can be carried out simultaneously with the improved operating conditions.
It's amazing how many do-gooders there are on this forum that are just out to save their fellow investor from making a terrible investing decision by owing shares in this company. I'm so impressed, however it has long been known that no one bashes a bad stock, so this company must really have something going for it. Think I'll double my position.
Makamai
Certainly would be refreshing to see this thing turn around, but it will take some revealing news to make it happen
Makamai
They certainly wouldn't know a fact even if it were to slap them alonside the head...
I was the volume a couple days back picking up 500 shares someone didn't want for $.25. Keep um coming!
Makamai
"its hard to get the truth with Dybamite" say WHAT??? - anyhow, professed bashers are not looking for the truth - they are looking to distort the truth for their own personal gains. The longs have done their DD and know what's fact and what's fiction. We left our mothers a long time ago.
Makamai
I agree - one last major dip filled the gap, the company will issue an NR stating when the buy back has started, (Thursday or Friday) acquisitions are on track, life is good - and will be getting a whole lot better!
Makamai
Excellent posts Breccia - however the sincerity of those raising the questions is certainly suspect. Stockrox is an admitted basher and his "friends" have repeatedly shown that they are not interested in the "facts", rather they just want to bad mouth the stock. As I have maintained and you have stated, there is no comparison between the SRI process and Green Rubber - end of discussion!
Makamai
maronti1 - sorry, I don't have PM capability to reply.
Makamai
Yea W6 - they were supposed to complete the shoot at Colorado as I recall between Sept 15 to the 17th. I presume that we'll get an NR with an update in the near future. I sure wouldn't want to be on the sideline when those programs come out either. Good point!.
Makamai
If there is heavy pressure on the bid size, the MMs will drop the price - simple as that...
Makamai
Based on the volume of 21mil so far today, and my estimate was the company on any given day could buy back up to 12 mil, which is a rough average over the last 4 weeks, you could say with fair certainty that the buy back has started. Also remember, the company doesn't have to buy on the Ask, they can buy on the Bid...
