Perfet time to start selling RadRope™ to Californian's

In December 2006, the Company acquired Nuclear Material Detection Technologies,
Inc. ("NMDT"), a wholly-owned subsidiary of UTEK Corporation in a tax-free
stock-for-stock exchange valued at $1,516,854. NMDT holds a license to a
patented portable nuclear material detecting technology. The Company issued
168,539,326 shares of the Company's common stock at a market price of $.009 in
this transaction.



An agreement for an exclusive commercial license has been reached with UTEK Corporation of Tampa, Fla., and its wholly owned subsidiary, Nuclear Materials Detection Technologies, Inc. (NMDT), to manufacture and commercialize the RadRope™ Nuclear Materials Detection System. Cargo Connection Logistics Holding, Inc., of Inwood, N.Y., a world trade logistics company, will acquire NMDT from UTEK Corporation in a stock transaction.

The RadRope, developed by researchers at Savannah River National Laboratory, is a lightweight portable system for rapidly detecting the presence of nuclear materials in sealed containers without the use of harmful x-rays. Using sensors arrayed linearly and encased in fabric, the RadRope system can be dangled in the 2- to 4-inch gap between stacked shipping containers on a cargo ship by a customs inspector. As the inspector walks along the top containers, a hand-held PDA shows an alarm when any sensor in the array detects radiation levels above background radiation.

The RadRope system can be used in a straight line, a curved line or at an angle, and the length of the system can be easily customized for a variety of different uses. NMDT anticipates use of the technology in a variety of configurations for both seagoing cargo containers and air freight.

RadRope™ Portable Nuclear Material Detection System
This lightweight, portable system can rapidly detect the presence of nuclear materials in sealed containers without the use of harmful x-rays. Using sensors arrayed linearly and encased in fabric, the RadRope system can be dangled in the 2 to 4 inch gap between stacked shipping containers on a cargo ship by a customs inspector. As the inspector walks along the top containers, a hand-held PDA shows an alarm when any sensor in the array detects radiation levels above background radiation.

Market Assessment
The possibility of a terrorist group using a dirty bomb as a weapon against the United States is one of the greatest existing threats to national security. Over 95% of non-North American trade enters the country through U.S. seaports, and these seaports handle over $750 billion and 2 billion tons of domestic and Internationalal freight annually. The RadRope will add another line-of-defense in the multilayered strategy to prevent the introduction of nuclear and radiological materials into this country.

Patent Status
A U.S. patent application has been filed on this invention.

Stage of Development
The RadRope system has been beta-tested on cargo ships entering port in Charleston, SC.
