Special Update

Plasticon Intl. (PK: PLNI)

Major Announcement Just Released Pre Market!

PLASTICON COMPLETES SEMCO ACQUISITION

Cutting Edge Surfacing Company will position Plasticon for growth in $100 Billion + Surfacing Industry

It’s clear to us in this announcement that Plasticon International is finally on the road to success. We recognize that delays in consummating its deals have caused the stock price of Plasticon to be rocky in the near-term, but smooth sailing now appears to be at hand. The press release announced this morning is a crowning achievement and a very significant milestone. We encourage members to read this press release word for word.

The Green Baron Report has learned that Investor’s Business Daily will be printing this press release in the Corporate News section of its Friday and Weekend editions. A massive investing audience will soon be alerted to this major press release and the potential of Plasticon. We wanted members of The Green Baron Report to be of the first to read this news. It is information like this that separates The Green Baron Report from the rest.

Management and consultants working with Plasticon have stated to us that the potential revenues and earnings from SEMCO related products are virtually limitless. We agree that the opportunities here are staggering, and fantastic synergies are present with Plasticon’s current rebar support product line. There is a tremendous amount of positive details in this press release so read carefully and trade smart.

LEXINGTON, Ky., January 19, 2006 -- Plasticon International Inc. (Other OTC - PLNI.PK) announced today that the company has completed the acquisition of SEMCO Manufacturing, Inc.

“The acquisition of SEMCO Manufacturing is an absolutely critical part of our growth strategy,” said Jim Turek, President and CEO of Plasticon International, Inc. “We are very excited about the completion of the acquisition, and we are confident that SEMCO will become the greatest profit center for Plasticon International in the years ahead. SEMCO is currently profitable and enjoys a stellar reputation as a technology leader in the surfacing industry. This is an established company with an outstanding record as a pioneer in surfacing and the company has proven itself again and again with many successful high profile projects.

SEMCO’s products are the most innovative and versatile in the surfacing industry today, and the market potential is staggering. To give you one example, the world flooring market is a $95 billion industry (Source: The Freedonia Group, a leading international business research company). If we can capture merely 1% of this opportunity, that translates into $950 million in sales.”

Mr. Turek continued, “And of course, flooring is just one piece of the massive surfacing industry that SEMCO serves, which is why we believe that SEMCO will be such a huge profit center for Plasticon. SEMCO’s best-of-breed products, which cross link chemically to virtually any material they are being bonded to, reinforces the density of almost any surface, including concrete, tile, wood, foam, metal, asphalt, rubber, tile of all types, and can even seal off toxic gases from asbestos, thereby eliminating the need to remove asbestos. Their product applications are virtually endless and extend far beyond flooring to wall surfaces, heavily-trafficked outdoor walkways, parks and public works projects, kitchen and bathroom surfaces, and roadway projects (such as bridge decks and the beautification of highway dividers). There are tremendous opportunities for growth, particularly in transportation. The Senate recently passed a $285 billion transportation bill. As the only company in our sector that is DOT (Department of Transportation) approved in all 50 states, Plasticon is in a unique position to offer both our recycled plastic product lines and SEMCO’s innovative products for potential DOT projects in the future. We believe that the fact that SEMCO’s products are environmentally responsible and require no waste disposal, will make SEMCO’s products a very attractive choice for the Department of Transportation in the future. As a green company, SEMCO Manufacturing not only meets national requirements - they exceed requirements.”

Mr. Turek also noted that the product synergies with Plasticon’s existing recycled plastic rebar support product line and SEMCO’s surfacing products will allow Plasticon to immediately begin offering SEMCO’s products to existing customers. “SEMCO’s surfacing products add years to the life of the structure they are bonding to by eliminating the absorption of water into the surface they are applied to. SEMCO has the only product on the market which effectively prevents water damage. This problem has plagued the construction industry for years and costs the U.S. billions of dollars annually. One application where this is critical is with bridge construction and repair. Until now, water damage has corroded the metal rebar supports which have been used in bridge construction in the past. The combination of Plasticon’s rebar supports, which are impervious to water because they are made from recycled plastic, and SEMCO’s surfacing products, which completely waterproof the structure they are bonding to, is unprecedented in our sector,” Mr. Turek said. “These two products, offered together, give Plasticon an enormous competitive advantage. We will be the only company in our sector that can offer a truly comprehensive waterproofing solution to the construction industry.”

SEMCO Manufacturing, based in Las Vegas, Nevada since 1981, has provided their surfacing products to many of the city’s most impressive showcase projects, including a number of 5 star luxury resorts. Their eclectic customer base also includes high profile commercial, public and private clientele. Projects have ranged from critical government facilities (the flooring of the Pentagon) to elementary schools, community centers and many prominent parks and public works projects to the Bioshpere project, where the SEMCO team provided the materials for the creation of a lush, fully functioning indoor rainforest. SEMCO’s product line is noted for its incredible durability which is why it is not only extensively used indoors, but also on heavily-trafficked outdoor walkways, in extreme outdoor weather conditions, in chlorinated pool water and on rugged exteriors. SEMCO Manufacturing has offices in the U.S., Japan, China, Singapore, and Australia.

Plasticon’s acquisition of SEMCO Manufacturing, Inc. has been completed, and is now awaiting SEC approval.

January Effect Stock Pick Updates
GOLF ANYONE!
The Green Baron Report symbolically lined up five golf balls next to each other in our January Effect stock pick report that went out Friday morning, December 30, 2005. We reached into our golf bag for our driver and tried to stick each ball. We pride ourselves on results, so let’s see where these balls are going. Be amazed, be very amazed!

1) Plasticon Intl (PK: PLNI)

First of all, Plasticon rallied out of the shoot from .0039 to hit a high of .0083 within days. Major news announced this morning is sure to get this one flying again. Let’s see what happens, but so far this one looks long and strong. The closing price of .006 per share yesterday may soon be a distant memory. John Daly would be impressed.

2) AP Pharma (NASDAQ SC: APPA)

It looks like this ball has been struck nicely as well. Fantastic news released announced yesterday has sent these shares to levels not seen in months. APPA was selected at $1.52 per share and closed yesterday at $1.89 up over 24%. A close over $1.90 per share ought to take this one much higher. No mulligan here! Members are encouraged to look up the chart and check out the news by clicking on the following links: http://biz.yahoo.com/bw/060118/20060118005283.html?.v=1 and http://biz.yahoo.com/bw/060118/20060118005361.html?.v=1.

In one of the press releases announced by AP Pharma yesterday, we point out that “proceeds of $25 million were received upon the closing of this transaction and will be used primarily to fund pivotal clinical development of APF530, A.P. Pharma's drug candidate for the prevention of acute and delayed chemotherapy-induced nausea and vomiting (CINV). The remaining $5 million will be paid based on the satisfaction of certain predetermined milestones over the next four years.”

The Green Baron Report believes this non dilutive funding was shear genius. Management has now put the Company in a stronger position when negotiating over possible joint partnerships. The Green Baron Report believes the significance of the press releases announced yesterday has not been fully reflected in the stock price, and that by the end of January we will find that our golf ball was struck with authority from the tee box.

3) China Media 1 (BB: CMDA)

So far it appears that this one might not get past the ladies tee box, but this worm burner still has a legitimate shot at hitting a hard spot in the fairway. A press release announced on Tuesday gave us at The Green Baron Report reason to rejoice, but The Street still remains utterly clueless. Perhaps a shot of coffee at the Halfway Hut might perk everyone up. Let’s explain again on this one.

The Company provided an update that stated in spite of delays due to enhancements to its outdoor display sign, the contracts are in good standing. We are talking about contracts valued at about $27 million per year for 20 years. It also stated that the indoor signs are not a new design, and will not require a prolonged design period. Finally, it appears the Company is working on similar advertising space at other airports. Check out the news announcement in it’s entirely by clicking the following link http://biz.yahoo.com/bw/060117/20060117005547.html?.v=1.

All these statements signify to us that it is just a matter of time before this one takes off. If CMDA can complete the outdoor signs by month end, we will have another winner for The January Effect that could dwarf all others. CMDA closed yesterday at .36 per share, down .01 from our January Effect pick price of .37 per share. We still maintain this stock will be up 10 times in value by year end. Don’t forget where you heard it first!

4) Astris Energi (BB: ASRNF)

Grip it and rip it! This ball is teed up so high it just wants to be blasted 300 yards like its friend Alternative Energy Corp (ARGY) yesterday. Don’t be surprised if ASRNF is next! January 30 is coming soon and we think we’re going to tag this one too. Oil prices are screaming again and Astris has the lowest market cap of any fuel cell company. This gift isn’t going to stay wrapped forever. We think the press release announced yesterday is just the tip of the iceberg. To see the release yesterday, please click the following link http://biz.yahoo.com/iw/060118/0106599.html

5) ImageXpres (PK: IMJX)

Ok, a move from .03 to .05 per share on this stinky pinky is not going to get us excited. Nothing short of a move over .10 per share will make us run to the clubhouse to celebrate. ImageXpres needs to give us a clue over the glorious merger announcements that we were teased with last month. This Company is capable of so much more, and we are still confident the action will come. Help us out big John Z. January 30 is coming soon and we like to be right.
