My friends, we've all made a lot on this sector's surge, if you or anyone else can help my 29th ID comrade in arms who is in trouble right now after going through Hell in Afghanistan, losing his car, his house, and now possibly his son Angel who has blood cancer. If you have anything you can spare to help Alex and his boy it can help to repair their spirits and may help to save lives. Thank you all for your support in this trying time for my buddy.

"Alright guys, friends and family. I don't like asking for help let alone asking for handouts as I am independent and strong willed and been on my own since our tour in 2004-2005 in Afghanistan ended. As you guys know me I was at just about every major hit our battilion suffered during our time in hell in and around the Ghazni province. But My little boy Angel Leonardo Juarez is fighting for his life right now and can use some support. His "High Risk" A.L.L Cancer is taking a toll on him, my family and I. I have done all I can to support my son and my family on my own but I'm at the brink of losing my own battle to stay alive. I make this plea for help to ensure and alleviate my son and my wife's future . I can take but so much right now as soon as I'm doing good I get kicked back down, And as soon as I look up I get kicked in the face. I lost my house , my car and now possibly my son and now my own future hangs on the edge. The financial toll it has taken on me has left me hopeless. All I can do now is turn to my brothers in arms, my comrades and our lord. If anything that you guys can do for my son and family would be greatly appreciated. We are in month five of his treatment and have two and a half years left. He is such a strong boy as he fights side affects and symptoms on a daily basis. He loves the military and says he wants to be a cop when he grows up. He loves America as it has given him the necessary medical attention to survive this. It is a blood cancer so treatment is intensive and costly. Plus I drive 2 hours daily there and back as I could'nt support living in Charlottesville. I am in white post now dealing with no work and a 80 percent disability level that is in review for a 100 for the past 6 months. My girlfriend and I recently married right before my sons most intensive chemotherapy yet. We spent our " honeymoon"at the hospital in Charlottesville with our son. I slept on the floor as my wife slept on a recliner. But we were glad to be with him. My sons birthday is on the 23 of this month and I have all but 30 dollars to say the least. So if I can just ask for a prayer to save my family from such hardships I come before you folks now who I trust as dear friends and family close to my heart to help me in anyway possible. God bless all who believe me and all who will stick by my side till the end as I would of for any and all of you wonderful soldiers out in Afghanistan and here in the real world. Yours truly and in great dept to all who answer my cry for assistance...... Alexander Juarez. A.k.a EZ.. A prayer is as good as it gets but whatever else you can do for us is greatly appreciated. Plus pass this on to as many as you can. Thank you and my god heal us all and answer our prayers. God bless my love of my life, my son angel. I hope you don't leave me alone in this cruel and unforgiving world my son.............. God loves the infantry. God loves us all."
Hey yall, if you or anyone else can help my 29th ID comrade in arms who I served in Afghanistan with, he is in trouble right now staring into the edge of the Abyss. If you have anything extra you can spare to help his son fight his blood caner and help to repair his spirit and it can help change lives. Thank you all for your support in this trying time for my buddy.

USEI Cannabis Travels to Meet Vendors and Attend Trade Fair in Seattle, Washington This Week
SANTA CLARITA, CA--(Marketwired - Mar 13, 2014) - USEI Cannabis Initiatives Corp, a wholly owned subsidiary of U.S. Energy Initiatives Corporation, Inc. (OTC Pink: USEI) (PINKSHEETS: USEI) is pleased today to announced that Management will travel to Washington this weekend to meet with product makers and to attend the MJBA Vendor Fair in Seattle, Washington. The MJBA Vendor Fair Seattle (March 15 & 16, 2014), is being produced by the Marijuana Business Association, a national industry trade group based in Seattle, whose mission is the creation of a legitimate, sustainable and profitable legal marijuana industry, and sponsored by Evergreen Herbal, a popular maker of cannabis-infused edibles and beverages. Washington State's legal marijuana business community will convene this weekend in Seattle for a two-day trade show featuring more than 30 of the state's top cannabis brands.
According to Anthony Miller, CEO: "We have already applied for our trademarks coined 'The Real McCoy Genuine' which is named after our CTO Harrison A. McCoy III, the great-grand son of Elijah McCoy (the Real McCoy); we have procured recipes, we have developed recipes and intend to venture with companies that have been producing edible products for some time. Our intent, in the State of Washington, is to establish a business that will produce products for this market (immediately as it opens), as well as the nation. When Colorado's cannabis industries launched... there were not enough products to support the market and that continues to be a challenge. The same is projected to be true for the Washington marketplace. This event allows us to meet with other vendors and more importantly to meet with a potential partner which we plan to expand their current business profile to support substantial growth. We plan on expanding production next month. We are not abandoning Colorado just adding to what we are doing... and we have opportunities that are coming online extremely fast."
"We will continue to focus on these lucrative Hemp and Medical Marijuana marketplaces and develop partnerships and market products and services that will diversify and advance our operations. More information regarding our strategies will be forthcoming in the coming weeks and basic information regarding our present cannabis subsidiary can be found on the company's website @ www.useicannabis.com/web/," commented Miller.

PBS Holding, Inc. (PBHG) Signs $5 Million Funding Deal
DALLAS, TX--(Marketwired - Mar 11, 2014) - PBS Holding, Inc. (OTC Pink: "PBHG") (PINKSHEETS: PBHG), (the "Company"), today released an update to shareholders.
Today, PBS Holding Inc. is proud to announce the signing of a major funding deal with Mastiff Funding Group for $5 million over the course of 36 months. This funding will be used immediately to fund the projects we have been working on over the last several weeks.
"The past few weeks we have made great efforts to expand our product development to include and provide for the new and emerging multi-billion dollar marijuana markets. We understand the importance to execute and get our products in this ever growing market place at once. The $5 million funding will make this possible. We want our shareholders to know we are taking the marijuana market serious, as we see major revenue going to our bottom line with the products we have. This market sector is enormous, and has just begun. It will only grow bigger as more and more states legalize marijuana," stated Mr. Vakser.
The products will be marketed thru traditional retail, branded and co branded wholesale, and as legalization expands, into the retail markets. We see the edibles area of this marketplace as being a niche, high profit area. Our selections will include candies, drinks, soups, and ice cream, pop cycles, chewing gum, vitamin substitutes, range of desserts and many others items.
Examples of products ready to produce are:
Chill Drinks - A cool smooth relaxing drink with added natural relaxation herbs to help deal with today's over stressed lifestyles. These drinks will be available in a variety of flavors and strengths that will help with different needs, such as relaxation to a sleep aid.

Company Uses Proven Chemistry to Extract Cannabinoids and Achieve Consistent Targeted Results With Aim to Develop First Major Brand in the Cannabis Industry
INDIANAPOLIS, IN--(Marketwired - Feb 26, 2014) - Stevia Corp. (OTCQB: STEV) ("Stevia Corp" or the "Company"), a farm management company focused on the economic development of products that support a healthy lifestyle, including stevia and hemp, is pleased to announce the signing of a farm management and technology agreement with ebbu LLC ("ebbu") of Arvada, Colorado.
Recently featured during a prime time interview on the Varney & Co. segment on Fox Business News (http://video.foxbusiness.com/v/3146801264001/marijuana-startup-offers-chill-energy-and-giggle-brands/), ebbu utilizes chemistry and proprietary formulations to deliver consistent dosages of identified cannabinoids resulting in consistent emotional feelings or moods by the user. By branding the various moods, such as 'Chill' or 'Giggles' the products are easy to understand and all the consumer needs to know is how they want to feel.
With expertise developed while working with the stevia plant and applying proprietary processes to breed and extract the plant's medicinal properties for use in feed additives, Stevia Corp will work with ebbu to scale commercial extraction of identified cannabinoids. Extraction is the crucial first step in the analysis of medicinal plants and the production of targeted products. Proprietary processes then isolate the desired compounds to achieve purity, quality, consistency and effectiveness. The resulting compounds can then be used in a range of products from foods to cosmetics to pharmaceuticals. Scaling the extraction process from prototype to commercial operation requires specialized knowledge and skill that Stevia Corp will provide to ebbu.
The cannabis plant produces many chemical compounds called cannabinoids. There are more than 85 different cannabinoids that have been identified and isolated from the cannabis plant that exhibit varied effects and many of these are now being studied for their medical properties. ebbu's proprietary processes will enable it to cost effectively isolate and purify targeted compounds enabling ebbu to both formulate its own retail brands as well as become a major supplier of purified compounds to the medical industry and others.
George Blankenbaker, Stevia Corp President, comments, "Many people don't realize that the stevia plant is also a medicinal herb and we focus on extracting stevia's medicinal properties to formulate feed additives. Our technologies and experience have synergistic application for the cannabis industry and while current federal and most state regulations prevent us from participating in the industry, it is our goal to position the company to take advantage of the shifting regulatory landscape where possible. We have been looking for a company in the cannabis industry that will be an industry game changer. When we discovered ebbu, it was a natural fit."
Dooma Wendschuh, ebbu CEO, comments, "We are very impressed with Stevia Corp's knowledge of the industry and expertise in agronomics and extraction technologies. We look forward to working with Stevia to further develop and commercialize our technology."

About the Cannabis Industry Sector
The cannabis plant has a history of use dating back thousands of years across many cultures and the plant produces 483 known compounds which include more than 85 cannabinoids. Various strains of the plant have been selectively bred for specific purposes. Industrial Cannabis (hemp) is grown primarily for fiber, seed and seed oils; Medicinal Cannabis is grown for its constituent cannabinoids as medical therapy to treat disease or alleviate symptoms; Recreational Cannabis is bred to produce high levels of tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) for its psychoactive properties.
In 2004, the United Nations estimated that global consumption of cannabis indicated that approximately 4% of the adult world population (162 million people) used cannabis annually, and that approximately 0.6% (22.5 million) people used cannabis daily.
Food and fiber uses for industrial hemp are growing rapidly and have increased over 300 percent, to an estimated 25,000 products, in the past few years. Much of that growth is coming from the increased sales of hemp food products.
About the Stevia Industry Sector
Within two years of the USA market opening, Nielsen-based retail consumption data indicated almost $1 billion of retail sales for the sector. In 2010, stevia products were launched across thirty-five countries and in 38 categories. The World Health Organization (WHO) estimates that stevia could replace 20-30% of all dietary sweeteners.

Stevia Corp. Enters Hemp Industry as the United States Farm Bill Changes the U.S. Legislative Position on Hemp
Company Identifies New Growth Markets That Leverage Its Expertise in Stevia and It Applauds New Farm Bill Which Legalizes Hemp Cultivation by Universities and State Agricultural Departments for Academic and Agricultural Research
INDIANAPOLIS, IN--(Marketwired - Feb 20, 2014) - Stevia Corp. (OTCQB: STEV) ("Stevia Corp" or the "Company"), a farm management company focused on the economic development of products that support healthy lifestyle, is pleased to offer insights regarding key aspects of planned expansions.
In conjunction with Stevia Corp's commitment to the development of stevia, the Company will now begin similar endeavors in the Hemp Industry. Hemp, much like stevia, naturally contains many properties that support a sustainable healthy lifestyle. Stevia Corp plans to participate in the successful growth of the hemp industry and particularly hemp seeds, oils and related products which are growing in popularity.
George Blankenbaker, Stevia Corp President, comments, "As the public becomes more aware of hemp seeds and their health properties, there is increasing demand for hemp products. We intend to pursue products that contain both stevia and hemp which will appeal to the health conscious consumers."
Hemp products have been present in the U.S. market for many years and are now growing in popularity as there is an increasing campaign to educate the public on the many benefits of hemp. The seeds are low in carbohydrates and contain approximately 44% oil by weight of which about 80% is a perfect balance of Omega-3 and Omega-6 essential fatty acids. Protein makes up 33% of the seed and is considered to be a more 'complete protein' when compared to meat, milk, eggs and soy and contains all 21 known amino acids including all 9 essential amino acids.
Mr. Blankenbaker adds, "The seeds are commonly sold in Health food stores and the oil and protein are considered 'super foods' and I have long been a consumer of hemp seeds."
Over 70% of the world hemp production is in Asia where the Company's farm management operations are based. In addition to the seeds and oil, hemp is valued for its fiber which is used in dozens of industrial products. In addition, hemp is derived from cultivars of the Cannabis plant and although it has been bred to produce low levels of tetrahydrocannabinol (THC), the psychoactive chemical compound associated with marijuana, hemp produces several of the other common cannabinoids that are being studied for their medicinal values.
Mr. Blankenbaker concludes, "Longer term we intend to leverage our farming and extraction technologies we developed for stevia and position the Company to be the major hemp player in the US."

Company Identifies New Growth Markets That Leverage Its Expertise in Stevia and It Applauds New Farm Bill Which Legalizes Hemp Cultivation by Universities and State Agricultural Departments for Academic and Agricultural Research
INDIANAPOLIS, IN--(Marketwired - Feb 20, 2014) - Stevia Corp. (OTCQB: STEV) ("Stevia Corp" or the "Company"), a farm management company focused on the economic development of products that support healthy lifestyle, is pleased to offer insights regarding key aspects of planned expansions.
In conjunction with Stevia Corp's commitment to the development of stevia, the Company will now begin similar endeavors in the Hemp Industry. Hemp, much like stevia, naturally contains many properties that support a sustainable healthy lifestyle. Stevia Corp plans to participate in the successful growth of the hemp industry and particularly hemp seeds, oils and related products which are growing in popularity.
George Blankenbaker, Stevia Corp President, comments, "As the public becomes more aware of hemp seeds and their health properties, there is increasing demand for hemp products. We intend to pursue products that contain both stevia and hemp which will appeal to the health conscious consumers."
Hemp products have been present in the U.S. market for many years and are now growing in popularity as there is an increasing campaign to educate the public on the many benefits of hemp. The seeds are low in carbohydrates and contain approximately 44% oil by weight of which about 80% is a perfect balance of Omega-3 and Omega-6 essential fatty acids. Protein makes up 33% of the seed and is considered to be a more 'complete protein' when compared to meat, milk, eggs and soy and contains all 21 known amino acids including all 9 essential amino acids.
Mr. Blankenbaker adds, "The seeds are commonly sold in Health food stores and the oil and protein are considered 'super foods' and I have long been a consumer of hemp seeds."
Over 70% of the world hemp production is in Asia where the Company's farm management operations are based. In addition to the seeds and oil, hemp is valued for its fiber which is used in dozens of industrial products. In addition, hemp is derived from cultivars of the Cannabis plant and although it has been bred to produce low levels of tetrahydrocannabinol (THC), the psychoactive chemical compound associated with marijuana, hemp produces several of the other common cannabinoids that are being studied for their medicinal values.
Mr. Blankenbaker concludes, "Longer term we intend to leverage our farming and extraction technologies we developed for stevia and position the Company to be the major hemp player in the US."
Further details of the Company's business, finances, appointments and agreements can be found as part of the Company's continuous public disclosure as a reporting issuer under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission's ("SEC") EDGAR database.
