Very frustrating....I will have to figure out tommorow
It is tough being a stock papparrazi. All of the office buildings were closed so I could not get up to the floors and meet anybody. Oh well, at least they all have offices in decent office buildings throughout town. Will update.
USEI - United States Energy Intiatives
They lease space on the 3rd floor of the building you see in the distance. This stretch of road with offices is called Rocky Point. I used to work out here.
The building was closed on Saturday so I could not get in -- will make it a point to get the receptionist and interior soon.
Parking garage into building

Sorry for delay. Could not make it by yesterday, but plan to hit the circuit for you guys later this afternoon. Will post tonight or tomorrow.
Let's remember that ACMG posters are now on board here. We need to give them the DD we have all had for some time.
Also, any news that ACMG has had in the past is now NEW news to USSE. Thanks for posting it here. We are all going to share in the fine work that ACMG has done.
He who controls the company controls the technology and its licensing. Revenue streams from all fronts.
Is JS related? It may have been Westeffer's recommendation.
I was looking at ACMG sometime ago -- back in late November, visited their website and began researching as an investment. I was sure there was a tie in between USSE (or principals) and ACMG at that time, and that I picked it up from one of you guys. Anyone know?
I like the strategy.
By holding a controlling interest in the proprietary technology relating to ethanol and biodiesel production that ACMG owns, USSE is becoming a true broad player in providing green energy resources. Also, to what extent the conrolling interest can be used for an advantage in promoting the biofuel is unknown.
It certainly is a hedge in that the proprietary technology on both ends -- the biofuel and now the biodiesel/ethanol now flow through USSE.
It's certainly not something that can be hidden for long -- it's only a matter of time before before buyers catch wind of that distinct soyfuel smell. When that happens, this coiled spring is going to launch.
Of course, now that the hard stuff is done, all I need to do is figure this cluster out:
Fogg, it worked...
thanks!
If caught, I'll probably end up like that Russian spy, but instead of radiactive isotopes, I will be poisoned by an injection of nanobacteria...
By the way, how do you get an image to post? I have tried with no luck.
Hmmm... stock papparazzi.. this could be my new career.
How much do you think a photo is worth? You know, out to lunch, with who, how much spent (conservative CEO or not?), JR and JS spotted together -- hugging/shaking hands/violently striking each other.
Hmm...fishing, golf or both?.... does he really eat at McDonald's.
There so much to be gained by 'boots on the ground'. Could be fun.
What an operation..
Should be fun. It may feel a bit clandestine though - camera and all...
I will make it a point to take digital shots of all the headquarters -- I am familiar with their locations. I have a day off Friday and will try to get that done.
BTW Zardiw,
Thanks for the heads up earlier. It's good to see there was a real conversation going on about all the interplay between the companies. Looks like a virgin board so far with no spammers. Hope it stays that way.
Sorry for that raise in price - that was me buying today at market.
I will try to add as much info as possible. I live in Tampa if anyone needs 'feet on the ground' DD.
I will hang here for a while and try to figure this out.
Ever envisioned Stanton hunched over the black board like Russell Crowe ala "A Beautiful Mind"?
Thanks.
OMG. I'm getting dizzy!!
John Stanton & Pangea Ultima Corporation
He is certainly into this "green" energy deal on multiple fronts.

US Energy Initiatives Appoints Phil Rappa Chief Operating Officer
Monday December 4, 10:54 am ET
Company Begins Management Shift from Development to Operations
TAMPA, Fla.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--US Energy Initiatives Corporation (OTCBB:USEI - News; "US Energy" or the "Company"), an ISO9001 Certified manufacturer of a patent dual-fuel diesel to natural gas technology today announced the appointment of Phillip Rappa as Chief Operating Officer. Mr. Rappa had previously served as the President of the Company's subsidiary Automated Engineering Corporation (AEC). Mr. Rappa's appointment is effective December 1, 2006.

"It is with great pleasure that I tap Phil to step into the operating role of USEI," said the Company's CEO Mark Clancy. "Phil holds degrees in business and engineering and an MBA in international finance and has over 30 years experience in hi-tech, hi-volume electronic manufacturing. Among his previous assignments, as President, Phil orchestrated the growth of ABB Ceag Power Supplies from $400,000 to over $202 million in revenues. Phil will now step in to handle all day to day operating activities. As we begin migrating away from a development/turnaround to a conventional operating stage, we want to review some of our accomplishments during the past three years setting the backdrop for 2007," concluded Mr. Clancy.
Since the engagement of WhiteKnight and our current management team in January 2004 the Company has, among other things, brought all SEC reports current and successfully moved off the pink sheets to the bulletin board, finalized the core patent product through ISO9001 quality standards and have grown to an international company with over 40 employees staffing a 10,000 square foot state-of-the-art development facility in Peachtree City, Georgia and a 10,000 square foot electronic manufacturing plant in Tampa, Florida. USEI proved the viability of the technology through a contract with General Motors, the world's largest automotive OEM and is currently in the early stages of programs with three additional international OEMs and in early discussions for a new domestic program with a large manufacturer of mid-sized engines. Further, USEI is currently in the midst of domestic programs with the States of New York and Ohio and plans to partner on a program within the State of California which is expected to lead to the Company's first CARB verification. USEI has also recently activated a domestic program with a mining operation to help capture wasted methane which can be used to replace diesel.
On the international front, USEI has now received its first major purchase order for 100 systems which are scheduled for shipment during December and January. This is the largest purchase order in the history of the Company and represents more systems than have been shipped in any twelve month period since the Company was formed in 1996. USEI today conducts its international marketing through a sub-licensing network including Thailand, China and throughout Asia as well as a host of European countries. On the financial front as reported in our last 10QSB, we've grown our revenues from $80,096 at the nine-month period ended September 30, 2003 to $1,771,502 for the same period ended September 2006.

There may be added value, but it appears that the "green" status was already in hand based on the announcement.
"By effecting this spin-off into two separate publicly traded companies, we can maintain the zero emissions status that we have worked so hard to attain."
What may produce added value is the ability of USSP to now act in a manner that does not jepardize the status. We can only wait and see.
I see it this way - IMHO.
USSP, as a dividend, is basically a shot at an IPO for what ever the (OLD USSE) - (NEW USSE) price is.
Say the OLD USSE was $0.40 on average. Then you have the divvy. The NEW USSE price goes to $0.20 (I'm not forcasting). Then you will have essentially paid $0.2/share for USSP. If USSP starts trading at $0.5/share, your essential IPO price will be $0.2/share, with a $0.30/share gain.
You obviously want the NEW USSE price and the USSP price, when added together to be at least $0.40, (I prefer much more), which was the price it averaged at when USSP was still a part of USSE.
Chime it with any of your thoughts.
Whether it has revenues or not it was a part of USSE and now it is not. If it has no value that what was the purpose of the dividend. To say it has any value is to assume it comes off the OLD USSE share price.
That's not correct IMO. The company has changed in that it will be valued at (NEW USSE)= (OLD USSE)-USSP.
USSE (with USSP) was at about .40 (round numbers) as I guessed it.
What USSP is valued at is unknown. Therefore we will trade down on speculation on what USSP is valued at. IMO.
Even if you are right, every penny you pay for it is that much more than you would have gotten for free with the divy. That would be a good hedge against a loss if you were wrong. I'm interested in your further research. Could be fun!
Your English is just fine....no worries.
Dude, it's "then" not "than"..
Of course, that's just my opinion and what I plan to do.
grantg2:
I am definitely long. I would not even risk selling today as some have suggested, for fear of not "being on record" on Dec. 1st. Quite frankly, I would not even contemplate a sale until I am vested with dividend. Even in that case, I would hold long.
And I forgot to add that I am hoping that the price of USSE and USSP combined, when separately priced, will at least equal or exceed the shareprice of USSE at yesterday's price.
Who would buy today? No longs, IMHO. Why? My thoughts: the price for USSE presumably includes the asset value of USSP. I may be wrong, (and hope I am) but the price of USSE theoretically would go down if they are spinning off an asset. So who would buy today, or for that matter, anytime before USSP is priced? There exists the risk of downward price movement.
Who would sell today? IMHO, only those that bought today, or those longs shaken by the downward PPS of USSE today. Anyone else would presumably lose their dividend, so only those who bought today would sell, thinking they could trade it for a profit ahead of the USSP pricing.
Is my logic off here? Thoughts?
That is a good strategy. I know when I came on board it was different.
Be careful and do you own DD, but if those patent applications are granted they may be a buyout target by a larger pharmaceutical IMO. Those are some serious diseases they claim to be addressing with that nanobacteria technology.
KQ,
I have been trying to piece this puzzle together and have come up with the following.
I start with the "old" press release from Nanobac Pharmaceuticals
U.S. Sustainable Energy Corporation and Nanobac Pharmaceuticals, Inc. Investigate Nanobacteria Link to Energy Production
Tuesday April 18, 2006 2:13 pm ET
http://biz.yahoo.com/iw/060418/0123621.html
John Stanton is the Chairman of Nanobac and of course is or was connected with USSE. The release goes through the initial plan to couple technology through CYBR, and that apparently fell through with the reverse merger done with LFZA:
"The Company's technologies will include the rights to the certain patents and intellectual property rights currently contained in EarthFirst Technologies, Inc. (OTC BB:EFTI.OB - News). Under EarthFirst's previously announced planned merger with Cast-Crete Corporation, EarthFirst/Cast-Crete will become the co-proponent of the Plan of Reorganization of CyberCare, Inc. ("CyberCare") (Other OTC:CYBR.PK - News). After the merger with Cast-Crete and CyberCare's emergence from reorganization, EarthFirst/Cast-Crete intend to combine the existing energy technologies with CyberCare's technology assets. The surviving entity will be known as U.S. Sustainable Energy Corporation.
Nanobac has previously announced published research that demonstrated the role nanobacteria play in the production of electricity. A fuel cell was used to enrich a microbial consortium generating electricity. Nanobacteria-like particles were present on the biofilm surface.
See: Water Environment & Remediation Research Center, Korea Institute of Science and Technology, 39-1 Hawolgok, Sungpook, 136-791, Seoul, Korea. bhkim@kist.re.kr
A fuel cell was used to enrich a microbial consortium generating electricity, using organic wastewater as the fuel. Within 30 days of enrichment the maximum current of 0.2 mA was generated with a resistance of 1 kOhms. Current generation was coupled to a fall in chemical oxygen demand from over 1,700 mg l(-1) down to 50 mg l(-1). Denaturing gradient gel electrophoresis showed a different microbial population in the enriched electrode from that in the sludge used as the inoculum. Electron microscopic observation showed a biofilm on the electrode surface and microbial clumps. Nanobacteria-like particles were present on the biofilm surface. Metabolic inhibitors and electron acceptors inhibited the current generation. 16S ribosomal RNA gene analysis showed a diverse bacterial population in the enrichment culture. These findings demonstrate that an electricity-generating microbial consortium can be enriched using a fuel cell and that the electrochemical activity is a form of anaerobic electron transfer.
PMID: 12908088 [PubMed - indexed for MEDLINE]
John Stanton, Chairman of both Nanobac and U.S. Sustainable, stated that Nanobac's continuing research with the National Aeronautics and Space Administration ("NASA") suggests potential energy, as well as healthcare, implications of nanobacteria. Our goal is to discover, or invent, and then commercialize technologies that enhance our way of life through sustainable energy development that "does no harm" to our health, or environment."
The only published patent applications I could find are assigned to Nanobac Pharmaceuticals, and include the following:
PUB. APP. NO. Title
1 20060083727 Methods and compositions for the treatment of diseases characterized by calcification and/or plaque formation
2 20060069069 Methods and compositions for the administration of calcium chelators, bisphosponates and/or citrate compounds and their pharmaceutical uses
3 20060069068 Methods and compositions for the treatment of diseases characterized by pathological calcification
Although these patent applications deal with nanobacteria and a claimed method for preventing and treating diseases caused by pathological calcification, the technology also has claimed benefit in energy.
A read of those patent applications themselves is incredible and could provide a huge breakthrough in treating calcification-induced diseases, such as Arteriosclerosis, Atherosclerosis, Coronary Heart Disease, Chronic Heart Failure, Valve Calcifications, Arterial Aneurysms, Calcific Aortic Stenosis, Transient Cerebral Ischemia, Stroke, Peripheral Vascular Disease, Vascular Thrombosis, Dental Plaque, Gum Disease (dental pulp stones), Salivary Gland Stones, Chronic Infection Syndromes such as Chronic Fatigue Syndrome, etc., etc., etc., etc.
The study of the nanobacteria was apparently important to NASA because of the effects on astronauts due to microgravity environments. It was determined through study between NASA and Nanobac that nanobacteria growth accelerated in microgravity environments. As nanobacteria grow faster in microgravity it provided a possible explanation for the increase in kidney stone formation in astronauts during space flights.
See: Ciftcioglu, N., R. S. Haddad, D. C. Golden, D. R. Morrison, D. S. McKay. 2005. A potential cause of kidney stone formation during space flights: Enhanced growth of nanobacteria in microgravity. Kidney International. 67: 483-491. www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov
Statements were then made that USSE and Nanobac were investigating whether nanobacterial growth actually enhanced bio-fuel productivity.
"It has been substantiated that calcific diseases propagate in microgravity because nanobacteria growth in that environment is accelerated. We are specifically investigating whether or not the vacuum created in the biofuel production process might accelerate nanobacteria growth, thus enhancing biofuel productivity."
This is further confirmed from the news released on our iHub board above:
"During the conversion process the beans and/or corn are loaded in one side of the reactor, enter into the vacuum/reaction chamber, and the gas, liquid, and solids are separated at the end. The gas is similar to a natural gas but higher in energy density as well. It also contains a significant portion of hydrogen which helps engines burn the hydrocarbons cleaner."
Thus there is a relation between nanobacteria and the enhanced fuel production by and through research of Nanobac and USSE.
In the interests of caution, I have also bought into Nanobac Pharmaceuticals, NNBC.OB, as they are tied in, at least through nanobacteria research investigated by USSE. Of course I suggest that you do your own DD before buying anything.
In addition, NNBC have made some incredible findings that are listed in the above published patent applications. They will be having a conference call by none other than our own mystery man, John Stanton on November 16, 2006.

Like I said this research maybe old hat for many of the crusties on the board, but I think the nanobacteria technology is revolutionary, not only from an energy standpoint but also from a health science application. Good luck to all!
