Today before the opening bell, Northfield Laboratories announced that the U.S. FDA has approved the filing of the Biologics License Application (BLA) for PolyHeme®, the company’s investigative human hemoglobin-based red cell substitute developed to treat life-threatening red blood cell loss when red blood cells are not available.

MyECheck, Inc. (MYEC.OB) Keeps the Cash Flowing Without the Need for Paper

MyECheck, Inc. (MYEC.OB) is a leading electronic processor that provides an alternative for banks, merchants, and ecommerce sites to process payments. The patented and proprietary system was initially used to remotely create and clear checks (RCCs) for the safest, fastest, and most cost-effective manner for electronic payments. The company has expanded the system to launch additional services including remote deposit capture (RDC).

MyECheck does not require a physical check from the payee for its processing. The system actually generates electronic checks that follow the Check 21 specifications, which allow merchants, banks, and companies to process these items. The system has a number of certified check imagers and is an authorized reseller of DigitalCheck™ imaging equipment. Check image processing eliminates the need for paper check transportation, which reduces a company’s administrative costs and speeds the clearing of checks by 2+ days on average.

The MyECheck solution does not fall into the same category as traditional ACH transactions. One major advantage of using MyECheck is that the system is able to debit every U.S.-based checking account. The system has access to small banks, credit unions, S&Ls, brokerage accounts, business accounts, and credit card accounts, which are organizations that ACH does not have access to debit. A second advantage of using MyECheck is that it falls under Check 21 law and Uniform Commercial Code (UCC state law), which is typically more favorable to the recipient, especially when charge-backs are involved.

The company’s RDC processing system not only enables its clients to improve their cash flow through expediting processing faster and reducing administrative charges, it also provides a reduction in risk. The system can verify the bank account status of a customer prior to final authorization of payment to determine if the customer has bounced a check recently. The system also offers clients with the ability to establish a 3-level identity verification system to ensure the validity of a customer.

MyECheck has created a solid system that can assist merchants, banks, corporations, and ecommerce sites in streamlining their payment processing systems at an affordable cost.

Sector 10, Inc. (SECT.OB) MRU Unit is the Perfect Solution for Construction Sites

Construction sites and industrial buildings must comply with the requirements set by several government agencies, including OSHA, EPA, etc. Issues of concern range from safety to emergency preparedness. Emergency warning systems and first aid supplies are usually in place, but these systems are incomplete and the locations are difficult to find. Because of the large amounts of chemicals and large machinery at industrial sites, there is considerable risk for injury and death.

Sector 10’s mid-sized MRU units were designed to conform to government agencies’ regulations and are customizable to respond to each risk event forecasted by the customer. Thanks to the size of the MRU, as well as the emergency strobe light located on top of the unit, it is easily visible to victims and professional support teams. Sector 10 provides the following separate models for many common safety and emergency response needs:

Industrial, Construction and Agricultural Safety and Hygiene
Spill-Decon Equipment
Emergency Response Equipment
Respiratory Response
Confined Space Recovery
Disaster Rescue Response
Clean Room Response
An MRU can be leased monthly for the cost equivalent of buying a 33 lb. box of screws. Purchasing an MRU inexpensively, effectively and quickly brings a work-site into daily OSHA and other regulatory compliance. It also provides a first response solution for injuries or disasters, and will saves lives while reducing personal financial exposure to site managers.

Exchange Media Corp. (EXMD.PK): Mobile Media Advertising’s Growing Importance

Any kind of media advertising requires the use of robust analytics to understand user-behavior and to better plan for future growth, and mobile advertising is no different. The need to advertise through mobile devices has become obvious with Global GSM and 3GSM subscribers reaching 3.48 billion.

Jason Spero, vice president of marketing at AdMob, who demonstrated a free mobile-analytics tool at a recent Mobile Monday meeting, stated, “There seems to be a trend among the companies that have started early. Ringtones and other entertainment content comprise the largest chunk of mobile advertising, along with car ads, TV and movie promos, and ads for well-known consumer brands.”

Exchange Media’s mobile platform allows users to watch the ads on a private mobile screen while offering advertisers personal, user-exposure totaling almost 15 hours a day x 7 days a week. In contrast, TV/Radio exposure averages 3-5 hours. With more than four out of five U.S. adults owning a mobile phone, there’s a very large, under-capitalized source of revenue waiting to be tapped.

Transgenomic Inc. (TBIO.OB) Finds Positive Profit Position on Strong Consumable and Research Services Sales

In the world of “Big Pharma,” sometimes the small things go unnoticed. Investors are so interested in when and how the product pipeline will be filled, they miss the development process required to fill it. In a certain sense, they don’t see the trees through the forest. There is much work that needs to be done before a drug gets anywhere near the sales stage, and as the drug companies often say in support of higher drug prices, it costs to get to that point. Finding a company that is a part of that process is an opportunity, and one that can be very profitable.

Transgenomic Inc., a life science company, works to provide research services and products to the medical, education and pharmaceutical industries. The company’s primary focus is molecular genetics and diagnosis.

Although the general concept of the genome is known and somewhat understood by the general public, its overall practicality can be somewhat foggy for most. When looked at from an investment standpoint, however, the opportunity for profit crystallizes in that the general make-up of a genome is that of variation and the problems that variation brings. If a company can identify, and potentially modify, the variation, it can profit. In this sense, Transgenomic has identified the opportunity and is profiting by offering services and products that carry out the identification of the variation within a genome.

The company operates on two levels, instruments/consumables and laboratory services. On the instruments/consumables side of the business, the company has installed over 1,400 WAVE systems for genetic variation and detection capability world-wide - with each system requiring consumables to operate. The company’s laboratory operation, which generates a majority of sales, is located in Omaha Nebraska. At these facilities, the company works with pharmaceutical clinical trials, universities and others interested in biomarkers and associated genetic research.

Interestingly, one might think that sales of the company’s WAVE diagnostic product would drive revenue. This is apparently not the case. In the first nine months of 2008, WAVE sales actually decreased 7% but were supported by consumables to the 1,400+ systems already in place rising 4%. The company’s laboratory services also witnessed solid growth for the same period rising 66%. From this perspective, the company appears to have an in-place revenue stream that is self supporting regardless of WAVE sales.

Additionally, ongoing pharmaceutical research and genetic identification sales are far outpacing the pricing cycle required by medical institutions and research universities to purchase higher cost WAVE hard goods. Transgenomic Inc. has moved into a positive profit position on the strength of reoccurring sales and research services. As the genome is further understood, sales will ultimately begin to build in a geometric fashion and provide a solid and profitable future for the company.

China 3C Group (CHCG.OB) Inks Definitive Agreement to Acquire Jinhua Baofa Logistic Ltd.

Today, China 3C Group announced that it has agreed to acquire 100% of Jinhua Baofa Logistic Ltd. (”Jinhua”), a well-known logistic company in Eastern China. The agreed amount for this transaction is RMB 120 million (approximately $17.4 million). The company anticipates completing the acquisition by March 31, 2009.

Jinhua was founded in 2001 and currently employs about 350 people. With 280 customers and a fleet of more than 70 trucks, the company had sales of RMB 54.2 million (approximately $7.85 million), net income of RMB 11.7 million (approximately $1.69 million), and gross margin of 32.2% for the nine months ended September 30, 2008.

Mr. Zhenggang Wang, CEO of China 3C Group, stated, “We are extremely excited about the acquisition of Jinhua and believe this acquisition can increase the competitiveness of China 3C group within the existing regions we conduct business and potentially beyond. China 3C’s logistical network will be more complete through the combination of Jinhua’s transportation network with China 3C’s existing distribution network. The addition of Jinhua can result in faster, safer and more reliable logistic services as well as provide China 3C with annual logistic expense savings.”

“While Jinhua has a strong presence in Eastern China, we also believe that it can assist 3C in developing a logistics platform that can allow us to expand into other major geographic regions in China. We are pleased to acquire a business with gross margins that are roughly double that of our current operations and believe that Jinhua can add at least $10 million in revenue and $2 million in net income to our business annually going forward,” he continued.

Mr. Hongfei Guo, CEO of Jinhua Baofa Logistic Ltd, commented, “We are very excited to join China 3C Group and believe China 3C can further diversify Jinhua’s customer base, provide strong managerial support and add financial strength to our business, enabling us to expand China 3C’s growth more quickly while also allowing us to pursue additional growth opportunities with other new and existing customers.”

The Amergence Group (AMNG.PK) is Focused on Meeting the Capital Needs of Visionary Businesses

Today’s credit crunch is forcing business owners to change their behaviors, come up with other ways to finance costs and expansion, and build cash reserves. With financing and purchases now requiring more up-front cash, businesses are restrained from reaching their fullest potential.

The Amergence Group has made it part of their mission statement to propel early-stage business owners towards success without restraining their dreams. The company provides bold new options for obtaining necessary resources to fuel growth and success.

The highly specialized group of professionals working at The Amergence Group is focused on identifying, nurturing, and expanding a small number of truly outstanding and visionary businesses that never received their chance to succeed. The Amergence Group believes companies labeled by Venture Capital firms as “non-traditional” are the companies that exhibit extraordinary energy and operating expertise into the market place.

Technical Analysis: The Importance of Relative Strength Index (RSI)

The Relative Strength Index (RSI), a popular momentum oscillator, is extremely useful in the application of technical analysis. It is widely accepted that if the RSI rises above 30, it is considered bullish for the underlying stock. On the other hand, if the RSI falls below 70, it is a bearish signal. Some traders prefer to use the oscillator to identify entry points in long-term bullish trends.

The centerline for RSI is 50. In general, a reading above 50 indicates that average gains are higher than average losses and a reading below 50 indicates that losses are winning the battle. Some traders believe a move above 50 is bullish, while a move below 50 is bearish.

Many free charting services now offer traders the ability to add RSI to their charts. One of the easiest ways to compare RSI with the underlying stock is to pull up a chart at www.StockCharts.com. www.BigCharts.com also offers to show the indicator in the Advanced Chart section.

Axial Vector Energy Corporation (AXVC.PK) Provides Powerful Options to the World

Axial Vector Energy Corporation is a publicly-traded global solutions provider who owns, develops and licenses advanced internal combustion engine and power generator technologies that have unlimited potential in military, industrial, and commercial applications around the world. While this concept is unique, Axial has crafted numerous ways to bring options to the world that are state of the art in their field and leaves their competition in the dust. Three aspects of Axial that have earned the company its reputation is their success in: Power Generation, Automotive Vehicles and Powering Vessels.

When dealing with Power Generation, Axial has utilized gensets that are above and beyond any of their competitors. Gensets are fossil-fuel powered generators used to run electrical devices or to charge batteries. Axial gensets are not only truly multi- fuel but are also the most efficient gensets in existence. The gensets used in the Power Generation aspect of their business is about 12% more efficient than the nearest competitor in terms of power output and can run on different fuels without any changes to the hardware of our machinery, making Axial the only truly multi- fuel genset in the world.

While genset is a form of technology you may not know about, the Automotive Vehicle aspect of Axial is something that has gained national attention. The Axial engine is much lighter and smaller than the regular engines making it a cut above the competition. While this is appealing to the everyday consumer, Axial is also a friend of the environment because these engines emit less harmful substances into the atmosphere, allowing Axial to do their part to make the world a safer place.

While the above mentioned features are impressive, perhaps the most unique aspect of Axial is their ability to power vessels in areas such as the watercraft market. The watercraft market is sensitive to the weight and torque output of Axial’s engine technology. With reduced weight and high torque band, coupled with the fact that Axial developed the smallest engine in any engine class, the application into the marine sector allows Axial to be a dominant force in all areas they exploit.

Exchange Media Corp. (EXMD.PK): The Multimedia Video-enabled Cell Phone

Not too long ago, cell phones were big, boxy, and too expensive for most families. Unlike phones today, they were only designed to make and take phone calls with a tiny monochrome screen. Today, however, we have sleek multimedia devices that can do so much more than just make phone calls and nearly every family owns at least one of them.

This revolution has brought much greater functionality and consumer demand for music videos, television shows, mobile internet, as well as video ringtones. While many U.S. cellular carriers foresaw this trend and have already generated enormous profits, the emerging markets around the world are just joining the mobile revolution.

Exchange Media Corp. has targeted China for its initial wireless video platform launch, but has plans to extend the services to other countries as well. This platform, known as XCPlayer, is a video content player that allows mobile subscribers to download various video contents to their mobile phones as well as chose a video clip for playback as a video ring tone.

According to Nielsen’s estimates, there are 239 million mobile subscribers in the U.S., with 61 million having video capable cell phones or mobile devices. 61 million represents a huge opportunity, but the opportunities in China alone will be much greater due to an enormous population and their ability to skip the old boxy cell phone phase, and immediately enjoy the benefits of the new mobile multimedia powerhouses.

Sector 10, Inc. (SECT.OB) also offers Solutions to Hospital Emergency Response Personnel

It comes to little surprise that Hospital ER units and ambulances are vulnerable to contamination from chemicals, viruses, parasites, and other foreign items that threaten the sterilized environment of their operations. When these units are contaminated, they must be removed immediately for re-sterilization.

Promptly removing these units causes two major issues for the emergency service providers. First, there is a tremendous expense to re-sterilize the units. Second, removing these scarce emergency response resources from service without warning may jeopardize an emergency situation.

Sector 10’s mid-size MRU units include the equipment needed to safely decontaminate people and equipment before admitting them into an ambulance or a hospital ER unit. The units also provide the following customizable items: single person or multi-staged group tent with shower, heated water supply system, Contaminant capture system, port-a-potty, contaminate cleaning solution and various supplies for emergency personnel.

Since 9/11 many issues regarding emergency room contamination and cross-contamination have resulted in new federal mandates for decontamination procedures at hospitals across the nation. With quick setup time and the ability to handle a multitude of various emergencies, Sector 10’s MRU offers a cost-efficient solution to today’s new hospital mandates.

Composite Technology Corp. (CPTC.OB) Receives Orders from China

Composite Technology Corp. announced today that it has received a new conductor order from Far East Composite Technology Company, a subsidiary of Jiangsu New Far East Cable Corporation. The order calls for a single core size with associated hardware to be used on a 240 kilometer transmission line in China’s Hubei province.

The company underscored the significance of the order as it signals the recommencement of order flow for new projects in China. Although the second half of 2008 realized a drop off in orders as a result of the impact of the Summer Olympics in China as well as the subsequent holidays, starting in mid-October transmission line projects resumed and the backlog of suspended projects was addressed.

According to the press release, the continuation of orders advocates that the Far East is working through the end of the backlog projects and is anticipating new projects for 2009. Under terms of the Distribution Agreement, the core will be stranded by Far East in China. The line is scheduled for installation towards the end of the first quarter of next year.

“While not generally recognized by people not participating in the Chinese market, the impact of the Olympics and other events in over the past year was substantial. Transmission projects essentially came to a halt until the events were complete. We are very happy to be back on the path towards our normal order flow with the Far East,” commneted Marv Sepe, COO of CTC and President of CTC Cable.

Our part of the related EIDS orders will come from several of the bus vehicle manufacturers and should encompass the supply of EIDS to a majority of the total bus vehicles ordered by RTA.”

He continued, “In the initial phase of this expected order activity, Mobitec Group has executed a three-year frame agreement to supply EIDS to one of the bus vehicle manufacturers associated with this procurement. The agreement, which specifically includes RTA, may provide more than $8 million USD in potential revenues for the Company as related specifically to RTA’s requirements.”

“Delivery is expected to start in mid-to-late first quarter, span all of 2009, and continue into 2010. The RTA bus vehicle procurement is believed to be one of the largest ever made worldwide and we are excited to be involved. RTA is demonstrating a strong commitment to sustainable growth, environmental stewardship, road safety and energy conservation as it rolls out this investment. More details will be announced following the receipt and confirmation of the expected orders in January,” Mr. Turney concluded.

Nexia Holdings, Inc. (NXHD.OB) Provides Investors with Details Regarding its Marketing Efforts

Yesterday after the closing bell, Nexia Holdings, Inc. announced that its management is reviewing and planning for its 2009 advertising and marketing strategy. Richard Surber, CEO of the company, stated, “I first want our shareholders, employees, and customers to be aware of some of the unique and traditional marketing efforts that have occurred over 2008 and how we plan to improve upon those efforts in 2009.”

In the press release, Nexia Holdings provided a list of tradition media, such as magazines, newspapers, mailers, radio, email, and press releases, that featured the company during the current year:

– Salt Lake Tribune, with a weekly readership of approximately 900,000, printed a half page ad this last weekend.

– Salt Lake Magazine is a high end magazine distributed throughout the Salt Lake Valley.

– IN Utah, a weekly newspaper, features Nexia’s companies on a weekly basis to the hipster crowd and has a circulation of about 40,000.

– Yellow Pages.

– Hometown Values is a discount mailer to thousands of households in the Salt Lake Valley.

– American Salon Magazine ranked Landis Lifestyle Salon as the #1 salon in Utah.

– Utah Business Magazine ranked Nexia as the 33rd largest public company in Utah based upon 2007 revenues.

– DEX Yellow Pages.

– Verizon Yellow Pages.

– M6 Marketing is a text messaging service; Nexia recently signed a 12 month contract with them.

– KCPW Radio is the local station for National Public Radio. Nexia is a proud supporter of this station.

Logan Fast, Master Stylist at Landis Salons and newly appointed Vice President of Green Endeavors Ltd., said, “Our biggest and most effective way to get the word out on our salon products and services is word of mouth at the local level coupled with throwing events to show our appreciation for our clients. I am cultivating my success into our New Artist Stylists.”

“In 2009, I will release more specifics on who we will be advertising with and how Nexia can generate further interest in its products and services. In addition to traditional marketing, I hope to be able to lay out how we intend to better inform the investment community about Nexia, this will focus heavily on our web presence,” Mr. Fast added.

“A critical element to Nexia’s success will be to make sure that Nexia’s marketing dollars continue to be well spent. I look forward to 2009 when our agreement with Clearvision International, Inc. kicks in with an estimated value of about $2M in media which should include celebrity endorsements, billboards, TV, radio, and more,” Mr. Fast concluded.

Dr. Bong-Hee Sohn Joins Kraig Biocraft Laboratories, Inc. (KBLB.OB)

A couple months ago, genetic engineer Dr. Bong-Hee Sohn joined Kraig Biocraft’s research and development team to develop new high performance polymers using spider silk gene sequences. Dr. Sohn earned her Ph.D. from Kyung-Hee Univ. in South Korea and has extensive research background.

This is a very exciting time for the Company and for the research laboratory. The University of Notre Dame hired Dr. Sohn to work on specific applications of genetic engineering in silkworm for polymer development and protein expression platform technologies, which are the Company’s major areas of focus.”

MyECheck, Inc. (MYEC.OB) Removes the Risk of Using Electronic Checks to Purchase Merchandise Online

With all the fraud that has taken place with checking accounts, it is common knowledge that receiving checks in exchange for merchandise is not the most secure way to do business. This is unfortunate since 50% of adults either have no credit card or no available credit, leaving them with little option when it comes to buying merchandise online.

However, through MyECheck’s Check 21 solution, ecommerce sites are able to quickly, safely, and cost effectively process electronic checks. When combined with MyECheck’s SPS solution, online merchants can ship the purchased merchandise the same day with confidence that they will be paid, even if their customer’s check bounces.

In less than one second, SPS authorizes checks from its database of millions of records, accessing both local and national negative files of unpaid checks, along with other proprietary verification services. This extensive verification gives MyECheck the assurance needed to offer this competitive service.

HST Global, Inc. (HSTC.OB) has Big Plans for Next year

Alternative cancer treatments have been growing in acceptance worldwide, poising HST Global perfectly to launch a wholly owned division focused on opening a new brand of Cancer Treatment Centers. While HST Global continues to look for in-licensing pre-clinical drug candidates, this strategy will allow the company to meet the needs of individuals that face cancer treatments.

Ronald Howell, President and CEO of HST Global, Inc. stated earlier in a press release, “There is a growing population of individuals experiencing the lack of available alternatives in treating late stage cancer. We have been working with a number of highly visible Physicians that are and have developed successful protocols that are meeting with success in the treatment of this population. As such, we will begin opening a privately branded chain of Cancer Treatment Centers strategically positioned around the world through a new wholly owned subsidiary.”

Mr. Howell continued, “The distribution channel established through our Cancer Treatment Centers will serve as a platform for implementing existing technologies and serve to identify appropriate communities for treatment with new and emerging drug candidates as they become available.”

Cancer is a world epidemic that does not discriminate. HST Global, Inc. has been involved with pre-clinical and proven drug candidates that have demonstrated high efficacy in the treatment of various cancers. The success and high efficacy recognized in these treatments has attracted a number of International partners that want to join the company’s vision and open Centers worldwide. Establishing a global chain of Cancer Treatment Centers will provide an immediate revenue stream to the company.

HST Global believes a number of events will take place in the coming year based on negotiations that have taken place:

The Company will open its first corporate owned center in the first quarter 2009.

The Company will open five partner centers worldwide in fiscal 2009.

The annual estimated revenue stream from each individual clinic is projected to be between 8 - 10 million dollars per year.

The Company will continue to seek out revolutionary and innovative products for the treatment of cancer and other life threatening diseases.

Due to the unfortunate nature of cancer, the Company is not as affected by current and/or future economic conditions. The Company’s intention is to provide World-Class treatment of this and other life threatening diseases.

Exousia Advanced Materials Inc. (EXOU.OB) Specialty Coatings Sales are Gaining Traction

In many respects, growth can be good and bad. The good comes when a company becomes known and makes sales targets, the bad comes if the company grows too quickly and its internal structure fails to keep pace. Being able to develop a solid internal structure, as a newer company grows, is a key element that any investor needs to look for in his due diligence. Determining internal structure strength can be difficult, but if it can and the company’s products are selling, a profit may be at hand.

Exousia Advanced Materials Inc., a development stage manufacturer and marketer of advanced industrial plastics and coatings, works to offer proprietary molecularly enhanced materials and coatings to the marine, transportation and energy markets. The company is currently finding solid interest in international marine and energy coating applications.

From all appearances, the company is beginning to gain traction with its coating products. Its once dormant distribution system is now coming to life as several solid initial orders have been placed and new distributors are added world-wide. HARCO Group, a major Brussels based distribution organization, made its initial order December 16th and has solid sales contacts with several Mideastern oil producing states. Its initial stocking order of over $350,000 to meet anticipated demand is thought to be just that – initial.

The company has also begun to see results from operations in China. Working from its subsidiary in Tianjin, initial orders of over $250,000 have been placed by a major marine repair and boat builder. The application for this order revolves around anti-skid coatings that make use of high levels of zinc and proprietary Vistamer particles. In a general sense, the company’s product base does look to have far ranging applications depending upon a customer’s needs and wants for their product.

With the reality of growth at hand, the company has begun to reorganize its internal structure to increase margins and operating efficiencies. Plant design and production equipment additions are currently being made and ordered to allow for capacity increases. A restructuring of sales and production is also underway to enhance communication with a quickly developing distribution network, both domestically and internationally.

Management at Exousia has recognized that the company’s products are gaining this traction and are working diligently to make sure that the company is structurally ready for it. As the world economy leaves its current dip behind, Exousia Advanced Materials should be primed and ready for solid growth as distributorships are established and sales forces trained.

Rapid Link, Inc. (RPID.OB) Announces Opening of New Data Center in Atlanta

Rapid Link Inc., a supplier of bundled internet and voice services to Business and Residential customers, announced the construction of a new data center in Atlanta, Georgia. This data center was built to meet the demands of companies north of Atlanta that need an enterprise-class data center facility to house their critical IT infrastructure, but would rather not rent expensive and crowded co-location space in downtown Atlanta.

Kris Maher, Director of National Sales for Rapid Link, stated, “Normally, companies in Alpharetta and Marietta would have to co-locate with a provider downtown to meet their IT needs. Our new space at Spaghetti Junction is far more accessible. As a bonus, when our regular access customers are also co-located at our data center they can be on-net to their own servers and experience better performance than would be available if they were located elsewhere.”

“Our new facility is unique in that we have both fiber and fixed wireless connectivity to our national backbone. By utilizing two different technologies, we achieve network redundancy and full path diversity,” commneted Matt Liotta, Chief Technology Officer of Rapid Link. The company anticipates offering businesses space at this new center next month.

Chris Canfield, Chief Executive Officer of Rapid Link, added, “Adding a revenue-generating data center space as a component to regular network expansion is a key factor in Rapid Link’s strategy to increase the return on our network investment.”

Axial Vector Engine Corp. (AXVC.PK) Sees Global Success for Improving Electrical Power Demands

Today, the very large and rapidly growing number of electric motors, many that are highly inefficient, consume nearly 50% of the world’s electricity. In the USA alone, the Department of Energy (DoE) reports that electric motors consume almost 60% of all generated electrical power. A rather surprising statistic shows refrigeration for homes and offices consumes nearly 10% of the world’s energy. Electric motors powering the HVAC (heating, ventilation and air conditioning) systems in commercial buildings account for approximately 50% of the building’s total electric costs.

Axial Vector Engine Corp (AXVC.PK) is a publicly traded global solutions company that owns, develops, and licenses revolutionary combustion engine and electric power generator technologies for use in automotive, power generation, appliance, and military application. Their patent-pending “axial flux” engine and generator set (GENSET) technologies produce highly efficient, cost-effective, and environmentally sensitive multi-fuel engines and motors that are scalable across a wide range and able serve in both mobile and fixed-location settings.

In a report by Appliance Magazine, global appliance sales over the next four years will increase for washers by more than 7.5%, and refrigerators are expected to increase from 55 to 62.5 million units, an increase of 13.6%. Additionally, sales of clothes dryers (10.3% growth), dishwashers (13% growth), vacuum cleaners (3% growth), and microwave ovens (6% growth) are also expected to increase by the percentages indicated.

As the proportion of electric energy consumed by electric motors and appliances continues to grow in the US, there is a similar pattern around the world. There is an exploding power demand in a number of Asian countries such as India, China, and many other Southeastern Asia and Latin American countries. Axial Vector sees a great opportunity to play an important role in meeting these growing demands for efficient motors and the reduction of national energy demands and cost containment. The company has also noticed a demand for increased power production (electrification) in many countries in which their GENSET will be able to meet the growing demand for prime power, distributed power, standby power, and portable power.

Although electricity prices in China are rather low, electricity prices are rising significantly. As a result, there has been a flux of government activity intended to develop markets for higher efficiency products, and the large multi-lateral development banks are actively working to finance energy efficient projects along with their support of power development projects. The privatization of electric power and the removal of governmental subsidies means a very strong interest in high efficiency systems such as Axial Vector’s.

ReGen Biologics, Inc. (RGBO.OB) Receives FDA 510(K) Clearance for Collagen Scaffold Device

Today an hour before the opening bell, ReGen Biologics announced that the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has given the company clearance to market its collagen scaffold device, the Menaflex™ collagen meniscus implant. This device was designed to be used in surgical procedures for the reinforcement and repair of soft tissue injuries of the medial meniscus (a band that spans the knee joint).

Gerald E. Bisbee, Jr., Ph.D., Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of ReGen Biologics, stated, “We are extremely pleased that the FDA has considered the recommendations of the Orthopaedic and Rehabilitation Devices Advisory Panel in support of our collagen scaffold 510(k) and that the FDA agreed to enable U.S. marketing for this important product. Today’s announcement represents the culmination of many years of effort on the part of the Company and the invaluable contribution of many supportive investors, advisors and surgeons, as we sought to bring the Menaflex product to the U.S. market.”

He continued, “The potential market for ReGen’s Menaflex product includes a large portion of the estimated annual 1.3 million partial meniscectomies taking place world-wide and the growing backlog of patients who have undergone approximately 18 million partial meniscectomy procedures in the past 20 years. The incidence of partial meniscectomies increases for those patients who have had previous procedures. Approximately 65% of partial meniscectomies occur on the medial meniscus. The United States currently represents over 50% of the world market for meniscus procedures.”

“With over a decade of clinical experience, we are proud that the Menaflex is the first device cleared by the FDA for repair and reinforcement of medial meniscus tissue. We look forward to making this important product available to surgeons in the U.S. and giving them a potentially valuable new opportunity to provide benefit for their patients with first time or chronic meniscus injuries,” Dr. Bisbee stated in conclusion.

Positive Developments for the Renewable Energy Industry

This year has been a big win for those who have been rooting for a larger renewable energy industry and reduced dependence on carbon based fuels. There have been several initiatives, legislation, and events that are expected to invigorate the growth of solar, wind, and other alternative energy markets.

– In October, the 30-percent Federal Investment Tax Credit (ITC) was extended for 8 years. Notably, this extension removed the low monetary caps for residential installations. Additionally, for the first time, publicly regulated utilities can now monetize the ITC, making direct investment into solar project assets less costly.

– In November, the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) rejected a permit for a new coal-fired power plant in Utah. The Kansas Department of Health and Environment also denied permits for two large coal-fired units. Each of these decisions results in a reduction of greenhouse gas pollution as well as questions the future of new coal plants, which is significant since coal fired plants account for over one half of domestic electrical power production and over 1/3 of CO2 emissions.

– Earlier this month, California announced its goal that new residential developments will achieve net-zero-energy status by 2020 with new commercial developments requiring net-zero-energy status by 2030. Governor Schwarzenegger also issued an Executive Order mandating that California utilities produce 33% of their electrical energy from renewables by 2020.

– The Obama administration’s Renewable Energy Plan requires 10% of USA electrical production to come from renewable sources by 2012 and 25% by 2025. The plan is expected to create 5 million new jobs through the strategic investment of $150 billion over the next 10 years in efforts to build a new energy economy and clean energy future.

As the cost of polluting sources for electrical production continues to rise for utilities and their customers, renewable sources of energy will become a substantial part of America’s energy future, attracting investment, expanding manufacturing capacities, and lowering the cost of electrical energy. The clean energy future is gaining momentum and intelligent investors will take the time to analyze these trends.

MAP Pharmaceuticals Inc. (MAPP) Announces Deal with AstraZeneca, $800 Million + Potential

Looking at the wide variety of companies working to make a go of their business makes one wonder when and if any of them will actually make the leap from development to profitable. So many companies struggle through the year, with only a hope of breaking through. Every once in a while, however, a company makes the leap after laying out millions to get their product to market. Being willing to take the risk and invest is where the savvy investor profits. The risk remains, but it can certainly result in a nice profit.

MAP Pharmaceuticals Inc., a development stage drug company, works to develop pharmaceutical type medications primarily directed at pediatric asthma, non-pediatric asthma, migraines and diabetes. The company is more specifically involved in nebulized medications and cardiac inhaler delivery systems.

To imply that the company is more oriented toward the delivery system of the medications it develops would be misleading. It is the company’s work with inhalable drug particles to enable inhalable cardiac delivery that drives value in the company. It currently has four products in later stage Phase I-III development involving this type of medication and delivery system.

MAP Pharmaceuticals’ lead pediatric asthma product, Unit Dose Budesonide, is in the midst of Phase III trials. Announced today, the company will be working globally with AstraZeneca to market and develop the product. From all indications regarding the agreement, the company may be able to eliminate the “development stage” description it currently uses to describe its status. Limited details indicate a $40 million initial cash payment, another $35 million at health acceptance and another potential $825 million + in payments if sales and marketing work as planned. From a separate and speculative forward looking point of view, success of this particular product would also bode fairly well for the other pipeline products that the company has in trials.

As mentioned in past posts, “Big Pharma” has quite a large pile of cash waiting to be used and a short pipeline of products and patent restrictions. It needs to begin looking further into the future to keep its revenue stream flowing. Finding smaller development stage companies is one such way to accomplish this task. Apparently, MAP Pharmaceuticals is one of those companies. Others are working to get their products along the food chain with pipelines churning, but until then, MAP is enjoying a nice holiday season and a solid coming year if/when its Unit Dose product finds approval.

Demand Concerns Cause Oil to Drop Below $34

U.S. light crude for January delivery fell $2.64 to $33.58 a barrel by 6:50 a.m. EST. The new four year low was made on the heels of a record production cut by the OPEC on Wednesday, but even that was not enough to alleviate fears that the weakening global economy will keep crude and crude-related products under pressure for months to come.

Technical traders who use long-term price movements to forecast where crude futures will settle believe the next support for oil is around $35 a barrel. Dean Hazelcorn, a trader with Coquest Inc. in Dallas, said refiners’ profit margins are starting to improve, which could also encourage buying of oil for near-term delivery, boosting the front-month futures price.

When OPEC President Chakib Khelil was asked today if he believed oil prices had found a floor around current levels, he replied, “I don’t believe there is any reason for it to fall any further. I don’t see it going lower.”
