Next 1 Interactive, a media company specializing in travel and real estate operating through its wholly owned travel subsidiaries Maupintour and NextTrip, today announced that M80, a division of WPP plc, will assist in the implementation of Next 1’s CONNEXT1 proprietary travel industry video advertising program to increase both tour bookings and cooperative travel marketing budgets with key travel partners.
CONNEXT1 is designed to capitalize on Maupintour’s existing travel industry relationships and Next Trip’s extensive travel video library to target online travel-researching consumers.
Utilizing technology capable of identifying targeted video advertising opportunities, the program will monitor more than 75 million traveling consumers and will provide targeted video advertising opportunities for travel industry specialists.
M80’s expertise is in the implementation of social media-generated information. The company will provide Maupintour with ongoing program support for the strategy, content distribution, optimization, and response analytics involved.
“The CONNEXT1 solution is a dramatic contrast to virtually all traditional marketing programs that count on mass marketing reach to capture a small, interested audience. It will not only provide consumers access to the product they want, when they want it, but will do so with video clips that connect key travel suppliers with the specific audience they desire to reach. It is very exciting to be working with M80,” Bill Kerby, CEO of Next 1 stated in the press release.

Genta, Inc. (GNTA) Initiates Phase 2b Trial for Tesetaxel as Initial Therapy for Women with Recurrent Breast Cancer
Genta, a biopharm company focused on the oncology market, today announced that it has added the first patient to a new randomized trial of tesetaxel as initial chemotherapy for women with advanced or recurrent breast cancer.
The company expects to enroll 220 patients for the 12-month, randomized phase 2b study, which will be conducted across 15 sites in the U.S. and Western Europe.
The participating women will not have previously received chemotherapy for metastatic or recurrent disease, though eligible patients who are HER2-negative may have received adjuvant chemotherapy and hormonal therapy.
The study will compare two oral chemotherapy agents; patients will be randomized to one of three treatment groups administered twice per day for 14 consecutive days. The primary endpoint of the trial is overall response rate; secondary endpoints include progression-free survival and safety.
In the previously conducted two phase 2a studies, tesetaxel was generally well-tolerated. In the first study, 13 of 34 patients (38 percent) achieved a major objective response, and 11 patients achieved stable disease, for a disease control rate of 70 percent. In the second trial, 20 of 44 patients (45 percent) achieved major objective responses with a disease-control rate of 82 percent.
“Our preliminary results suggest that tesetaxel may compare favorably with capecitabine across a number of parameters, including response, safety, convenience, and compliance,” Dr. Loretta M. Itri, Genta’s president and chief medical officer stated in the press release. “Genta has now completed two, non-randomized, phase 2a studies comprised of more than 80 patients. The Company has been engaged in extended discussions with regulatory authorities in the U.S. and EU regarding potential registration strategies for tesetaxel in breast cancer. We believe this new study will provide a firm basis for a phase 3 trial design as first-line chemotherapy in this patient population.”

Amarc Resources Ltd. (AXREF) Acquires 100% Interest in Newton Gold Project
Amarc Resources is a precious metals exploration and development company which is currently focused on the next major gold discovery in British Columbia, Canada. The company is associated with the highly successful, diversified global mining company Hunter Dickinson. Amarc’s current emphasis is on developing its now 100% owned Newton gold project along with the Galileo gold property which lies adjacent to New Gold’s Blackwater property.
The company announced that effective May 22, 2012, the Participating Interest of Newton Gold in the Newton joint venture converted to a 5% Net Profits Interest in accordance with the terms of the joint venture agreement between Amarc and New Gold Inc. As a result, the joint venture agreement has been terminated and Amarc now holds a 100% interest in the Newton property, subject only to the 5% net profit interest and a net smelter return royalty, which both will go to New Gold.
Delineation drilling of the Newton gold discovery started in September 2011 and has progressed rapidly with completion of 43 drill holes, covering 16,000 meters. This recent drill phase brings the grand total to 72 drill holes covering about 23,300 meters. Further drilling activity at the site is now on hold pending assay results. Over the next two months, Amarc’s geological team will integrate the assay data with information from various ongoing geological studies.
Permit applications for geophysical surveys around the Newton deposit and additional drilling have been submitted to the provincial government. In addition, a resource estimate for the Newton deposit is underway and is expected by mid-July.

Brigus Gold Corp. (BRD) Drilling at Black Fox Mine Returns More High-Grade Gold Intercepts
Brigus Gold, the rapidly emerging mid-tier gold producer with primary sites in Canada at their wholly-owned Black Fox Mine (which has an on-site milling facility), announced today that exploratory drilling on the southern arm of Black Fox continues to return high-grade gold assays.
Bringing in results across a good range of gold mineralization values ranging upwards of 5 g/t (across six holes, citing uncut average gold grades over the length of the core widths), with notable entries like 25.72 g/t Au over 33.3 feet (including a whopping 281.75 g/t over 2.8 feet), or 5.42 g/t Au over 103 feet (including 102 g/t Au over 3.3 feet), Brigus’ management must be extremely pleased to be finding yet more evidence that the so-called Contact Zone in the south of the Black Fox Complex is rich in high-grade gold targets.
Indeed, even VP of Exploration for BRD, Howard Bird, in his review of this latest set of data, was somewhat taken aback at just how unexpectedly far over the anticipated widths core values were for this high-grade gold mineralization. While BRD knew there was high-grade gold here from previous drilling, it was not clear just how thick the intercepts could be and these results offer a more complete portrait of the underlying geology/structural makeup of the site that has bolstered confidence at the company considerably.
Bird went on to explain that certain dilation jogs in the immediate geology, in conjunction with cross-cutting fault structures are sufficient to explain the “impressive plunging gold shoots” observed in this latest bout of highly focused/targeted drilling.
The Contact Zone mineralization is characterized by a steeply dipping fault contact between two north-south trending groups (metasediments and mafic volcanic rocks), as well as other proximal hanging wall/footwall zones. With an outline for the area encompassing a strike of some 1,476 feet in length (easterly trending dip of 78 degrees), the company has a very good logistical window here, with the strike open at depth and along strike to the north.
The Black Fox Complex is really the jewel of BRD’s crown and continues to earn that reputation with results like those in today’s report. Black Fox is a huge project of some seven square miles, encompassing the primary mine and mill site, as well as ancillary/adjoining properties in the nearby Township of Black River-Matheson, Ontario. Located smack in the middle of the prolific Timmins Mining District, Black Fox has only seen only approximately 25% of the total footprint systematically explored thus far, leading many investors (as well as the staff at BRD) to posit that there is significant upside potential remaining on the property (something made all the more palpable by today’s findings).
A preliminary economic assessment is currently underway on the Contact Zone (as well as the proximal 147 Zone) and the initial resource estimate compiled in December of last year alone added as much as 50% to the gold resource. Needless to say expectations are running high over at BRD and exploration drilling via the three on-site drilling rigs, with a projected 2012 release date for an updated estimate on Contact and 147, is progressing according to schedule.
The Brigus exploration team supervised Norex Drilling for the majority of surface drilling in today’s report, with sample analysis being handled by respected local laboratory, Polymet Labs over in Cobalt, Ontario (as well as SGS Laboratories in Sudbury, both of whom are ISO 9001:2000 certified in North America for standard fire assay). Senior Exploration Project Manager John A. Dixon, P. Geo., handled the review of technical data, acting as the Qualified Person for BRD and the company has gone to great lengths as usual to implement their standard quality control methods, including insertion of blanks and duplicates.
Adding to this strong production pipeline in Canada, BRD also has the Goldfields property near Uranium City, Saskatchewan, under their belt (economically recoverable gold deposit and reserves of some 1M ounces), as well as satellite projects in Chihuahua and Chiapas, Mexico.
For more information on today’s report that covered new drilling at Black Fox, including analysis of anything over 1 g/t, and a map of the drilling, please visit the Brigus Gold Corp. website at: www.brigusgold.com

MMRGlobal announced today that Pets Best Insurance has begun offering MMR’s flagship MyMedicalRecords personal health record as part of its BestWellness Program. MyMedicalRecords is the only personal health record covering all members of a family, including pets, at no extra cost.

Included in MyMedicalRecords is MyEsafeDepositBox, which stores important documents like copies of birth certificates, advance directives, mortgage documents, marriage licenses, passport information, family photos, and more at no additional charge. MyMedicalRecords users can also receive a personalized Emergency Wallet Card that features a photo of them with their pet, connecting doctors and emergency personnel to potentially lifesaving information accessed through MyMedicalRecords’ special emergency login portal.
Through its wholly owned operating subsidiary, MMRGlobal offers secure and easy-to-use online personal health records and electronic safe deposit box storage solutions. The company serves consumers, healthcare professionals, employers, insurance companies, financial institutions, professional organizations, and affinity groups. The company’s MyMedicalRecords personal health record is built on proprietary, patented technologies that allow documents, images, and voicemail messages to be transmitted and stored in the system using various methods, including fax, phone, and file upload, without relying on any particular electronic medical record platform to populate a user’s account.
MMR’s professional offering, MMRPro, gives physicians’ offices an easy and cost-effective solution for digitizing paper-based medical records and sharing them with patients in real time through an integrated patient portal. MMR is an Independent Software Vendor Partner with Kodak to deliver an integrated turnkey EMR solution for healthcare professionals.

GlobalWise Investments, Inc. (GWIV) Announces Inaugural Partner Advisory Board Meeting
GlobalWise Investments and its wholly owned subsidiary Intellinetics, a leading-edge technology company focused on the design, implementation and management of cloud-based Enterprise Content Management (“ECM”) systems in both the public and private sectors, just announced that an inaugural Partner Advisory Board meeting is taking place in Columbus, Ohio. The three day event is being held May 29 – May 31.
GlobalWise CEO William J. “BJ” Santiago established this meeting to bring together the various forms of sales distribution into a single location to share best practices for selling ECM software services, as well as to jointly develop future applications and improvements to the software portfolio. With ECM software applications being needed for every industry, and any size business, the concern for channel conflict or sharing of trade secrets between competitors is minimal and actually encouraged for the benefit of all those involved.
“I am excited to be hosting the inaugural Partner Advisory Meeting,” exclaimed William J. “BJ” Santiago, CEO of GlobalWise. “Many of our key, strategic Channel Resellers are in an attendance for a fantastic event that will be held over a three day period. I see this as an excellent educational forum for our selling partners to get together and learn how each other use and actively sell our software portfolio. Equally important, our software developers are hearing directly from sales channel partners what the market is asking for so that we are always on the cutting-edge of technology, similar to our migration from premise-based software to an Internet cloud based service delivery model.”
Participants at the inaugural meeting include various Channel Partners who actively market ECM solutions directly to business clients. Those Channel Partners include FormFast, ImageSoft, Primary Solutions, MWA Intelligence (MWAi), and many others. These partners cover a wide range of industries throughout the United States, including state and county governments, insurance, healthcare, court systems and educational institutions. With MWAi, the Company has the opportunity to expand beyond North America into the Asian and EMEA markets internationally.
Also attending is Lexmark International, Inc., who has integrated the IntellivueTM ECM software into their multi-function copiers and printers service offering. Lexmark developed the private-labeled DocMP (Document Management Platform) service that delivers Lexmark clients a multi-function copier and printer embedded with the ECM document management functions provided by Intellinetics’ IntellivueTM software. To see how Lexmark has integrated the IntellivueTM ECM technology into the DocMP platform, please click the following link to watch a YouTube video demonstration: http://youtu.be/69mnWMFy7uA.
“Lexmark is a marquee relationship for GlobalWise and Intellinetics,” commented Santiago. “By integrating the IntellivueTM software into an industry-leading hardware manufacturer like Lexmark, we instantly expanded our sales opportunities with a low-cost, private-labeled sales distribution model. Similar to our Channel Distribution model, this hardware integration approach is another method to expand our sales scope for our software products with cost-effective customer acquisition strategies. I think all of our sales distribution partners will enjoy the three day event and will leave with exciting new ways to market ECM solutions.”

ProGraming Platforms Corp. (PPTF) Taps the Growing World of Social Gaming
One of the keys to successful marketing is finding a good way to get people to give your product a try. That’s exactly what ProGaming Platforms, developer of an advanced commercial multiplayer gaming platform, is expecting to do with its recently announced new puzzle game, designed to showcase the platform’s capability to transform virtually any web game into a multiplayer competitive game of skill. The platform’s first commercial use will be serving the online advertising industry by allowing different organizations to hold multiplayer tournaments in order to increase traffic to websites.
Social gaming, via social networks, is an industry that continues to expand, now representing commercial activity worth billions in annual sales, with some expecting it to top $5 billion by 2015. Hundreds of millions of people now regularly play online social games, though the name may suggest more socialization than actually occurs in the online gaming environment.
The potential for marketing is becoming clear to vendors, including such big-name advertisers as McDonald’s. Nobody any longer thinks social gaming is just a fad with a limited shelf life. In fact, nearly half of all people who are considered gamers play on social media platforms, usually with their friends. Add to this the fact that mobile devices, which of course stay with the users virtually all day, are increasingly the device of choice, and the possibilities for communicating with and capturing a young and willing-to-spend market become clear.
In the case of ProGaming, its new game, a puzzle game that targets the extensive worldwide jigsaw puzzle market, will hopefully give users a taste of the company’s high-function gaming platform, and begin building a base that will attract advertisers. The company will continue to grow the game, and already plans to implement a Facebook API to provide a rewards-based experience to the game.

Penson Worldwide, Inc. (PNSN) Agrees to Sell Futures Division to Knight Financial
Penson Worldwide announced yesterday that it has reached an agreement with Knight Capital Group, Inc. (NYSE Euronext: KCG) regarding the sale of certain assets and liabilities of the futures division of Penson’s U.S. broker-dealer subsidiary, Penson Financial Services, Inc. (PFSI). The deal, subject to standard closing conditions and regulatory approvals, is projected to close in the second quarter of 2012. PFSI’s futures division services over 60 introducing brokers, high frequency traders, hedgers, non-clearing FCMs, professional traders, and exchange members.
As consideration for the transfer of certain assets and liabilities of the futures division, Penson will receive $5 million at closing. A portion of the $5 million will be held until the transfer of certain exchange seats or memberships. In addition to this lump sum, earn-out payments will be made to Penson based on the performance of the futures division over the next three years. Management at Penson anticipates the total amount of consideration will result in a small gain on the entirety of the sale.
Knight will receive customer futures positions and segregated funds and collateral, and foreign exchange positions and margin. Customers will not be inconvenienced by a change in access to their positions and accounts as a result of the transfer, and the transfer will not require any technology conversions or updates. Current management of Penson’s futures division will remain in place, and through a transition services agreement, Penson will continue to service its introducing brokers and customers. The vast majority of futures division employees are expected to make the transition to Knight. Additional details will be provided in further Penson filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
“Knight provides accounts with a stable, well-capitalized, independent platform and it will be ‘business as usual’ for futures customers,” said Philip A. Pendergraft, CEO of Penson Worldwide. “This transaction represents an ideal solution for our futures introducing brokers, customers, and related counterparties, as well as for our other stakeholders. As previously announced, we continue to work on other strategic transactions in both the US and Canadian markets.”
“We’re pleased to expand Knight’s capabilities in futures,” says Thomas M. Joyce, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, Knight Capital Group. “We’ll continue Penson’s work to enhance the client experience through advanced trading technologies and superior service.”

Flexpoint Sensor Systems, Inc. (FLXT) Discusses Success of Bend Sensor Technology
Yesterday, Flexpoint Sensor Systems reported updates on the development of 16 commercial applications of its Bend Sensor technology, ranging from safety systems to medical devices. Bend Sensor technology is a key component in a developing safety system for ambulance, garbage, and commercial truck applications that will likely soon be mandated for use in all such vehicles.
The 16 companies currently using and ordering custom made Bend Sensors are developing products that are progressing through advanced stages of development with several on the verge of entering highly lucrative commercial markets.
Flexpoint President, Clark Mower, remarked, “We are seeing our strategy of developing proof of concept through commercial applications continuing to yield results. There are few applications more demanding of performance and reliability than those pertaining to safety and health.

Orbital Corp. Ltd. (OBT) to Supply FlexDI Engines to AAI
Orbital recently announced that the company has been contracted to supply engines for use in vehicles manufactured by Textron, Inc. subsidiary AAI Unmanned Aircraft Systems. The heavy fuel engines Orbital is supplying utilize the company’s new FlexDI Engine Management system, which enables vehicles to use fuels such as JP5 and JP8, satisfying a U.S. Department of Defense policy which eliminates gasoline fuels for safety and logistic reasons; the DoD’s “one fuel” policy.
Based in Perth, Western Australia, Orbital is focused on providing green product design and development to manufacturers of engines and engine management systems. Orbital technology has been used in the manufacture of a wide variety of vehicles, including motorcycles, marine and recreational vehicles, automobiles, and trucks.
FlexDI engines are intended to be installed in AAI’s Aerosonde Small Unmanned Aircraft System (SUAS), which will be used in fee-for-service operations under a recently won contract from the U.S. Navy and Special Operations Command. The new engine has been designed with a smaller size in mind, in order to be lighter and more fuel efficient, increasing the range of a typical SUAS mission by 40%, or enabling the vehicle to carry a larger payload.
Terry Stinson, CEO and managing director of Orbital, said, “New ground had to be broken with AAI to meet their aggressive SUAS engine requirements, and we have been able to successfully develop and supply the demonstration engines from our Perth facility. This success now leads to production supply of engine systems. This is good example of Australian innovation, and demonstrates Orbital’s engineering and product development capabilities. The small unmanned aerial systems market is an emerging market for Orbital and we look forward to realizing this potential.”

China Bilingual Technology and Education Group Inc. (CBLY) Posts Solid Q2 Gains
China Bilingual Technology and Education Group is an education company that owns and operates high-quality, K-12 private boarding schools in China. Founded in 1998, CBYL now runs three schools encompassing the kindergarten, elementary, middle school, and high school levels. CBYL has approximately 13,881 students and 1,876 faculty and staff.
CBYL’s schools are located in Shanxi and Sichuan Provinces. The learning institutions provide students with an innovative and high-quality education focusing on fluency and cultural skills in both Chinese and English. CBYL’s schools regularly rank among the top schools in their respective regions for college entrance rates and national college entrance exam scores. The schools have also earned excellent teaching reputations and are recognized for the success of their students and strong faculty.
Total revenues for the 3 months ended February 29, 2012, was $10,953,811. This was a very strong 80.2% increase over the $6,079,354 earned for the same period in 2011. CBYL attributes the revenue growth to the purchase of its 3rd school campus, the Shanxi South School. With the acquisition of Shanxi South, CBYL gained an additional 4,681 students as of February 29, 2012. Total enrollment now stands at 13,881 students. The company also increased tuition 7.2% from $3,126 per student for the 2010-11 school year to $3,352 per student for the 2011-2012 school year.
Earnings before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation and Amortization (EBITDA) increased an impressive 119.0% year-over-year to $5.6 million, compared to $2.5 million for the three months ended February 28, 2011. The additional enrollment allowed the schools to better absorb fixed overhead costs, and the second fiscal quarter had fewer one-time costs compared to the start of the school year in the first fiscal quarter ended November 30, 2011.
Net Income also increased because of the Shanxi acquisition, increase in student enrollment, and the tuition increase. Net Income was $2,455,168 for the 3 months ended February 29, 2012, as compared to $2,203,594 for the same period in 2011. This increase represents a 11.4% gain, or $251,574. Another contributing factor to the increase was the company’s effective cost and expense control for the quarter.
Basic and diluted earnings per share grew to $0.08 per share for the quarter ended February 29, 2012 as compared to $0.07 for the same quarter in 2011.
Commenting on the company’s impressive results, Dr. Ren Zhiqing, Chairman and CEO of China Bilingual said, “Increasing enrollment at our schools continues to improve margins as we are able to better absorb our fixed operating costs. With our schools currently at approximately 70% capacity, our focus remains on ramping up our total enrollment to 20,000 students over time without compromising our academic standards. Driven by China’s growing middle class, the demand for private education is accelerating, and our reputation for academic excellence strongly positions us for long-term revenue and earnings growth.”
In the face of China’s rapid economic development and industrialization, governmental policy in China is focused on education as the primary way to increase worker productivity and raise the country’s standard of living. The rise of a Chinese middle class and upper class has generated demand for private school educations that will give children an advantage in China’s increasingly competitive workforce. The Chinese government’s policy of not subjecting private educational companies to corporate income tax also benefits the industry. CBYL anticipates its future growth will come from increased enrollment and new schools to be acquired by the company.

GlobalWise Investments, Inc. (GWIV) Attacks Information Overflow
GlobalWise Investments, via its wholly-owned subsidiary Intellinetics, is a Columbus, Ohio, based developer of ECM (Enterprise Content Management) systems, and offers industry-leading software that delivers cloud based ECM solutions. The company’s flagship platform, IntellivueTM, enables clients to access and manage all types of corporate content, including scanned documents, spreadsheets, email, photos, even audio and video content, almost anything that can be digitized, from any computer, tablet, or smartphone, from anywhere in the world.
Today, virtually every organization on earth increasingly depends upon digitized information, and the organization and access of that information is fast becoming a foundational element of corporate operations. The ECM industry is all about information organization and access, and is expected to exceed $5.7 billion by 2014, growing at a rate of over 10% per year. Traditional content management is simply no longer sufficient to meet the demands of far-flung divisions and on-the-move employees, and can become a significant drag on productivity. Information overflow can result in up to 85% of an organization’s critical content being trapped as unstructured data, a serious situation when concerned with issues like security, compliance, and redundancy.
By offering advanced cloud-based software and ECM solutions to the largely underserved small-to-medium size business market, GlobalWise is now in a position to capture a significant share of that market. The company’s Intellivue platform combines advanced virtualization and automated content management with an open, service-oriented architecture using web services. GlobalWise cutting-edge offerings and open software are used by leading hardware vendors that recognize the growing importance of advanced ECM.
The company has already been successful in targeting a range of industries and applications, including:
• Accounts Payable
• Financial Services
• Education
• Healthcare
• Law Enforcement
• Manufacturing/Distribution
• Retail

MMRGlobal, Inc. (MMRF) Grows Domestic Membership Base to 1 Million Mark
MMRGlobal, provider of online personal health records (PHRs) and electronic deposit box storage solutions, today announced that its domestic membership base for its patented PHR products and services has passed the 1 million mark.
The company said it expects this number to double before the end of this year with affinity programs through agreements with E-mailFrequency.com, and believes it has the highest member base of any “pure-play” PHR provider.
MMR’s member base includes customers who have paid access to the company’s MyMedicalRecords and MyEsafeDepositBox Web sites, along with private label Web sites.
“As our member base continues to grow, it creates a revenue generating platform for the company to sell affiliate products and services or for use in a targeted advertising model. Once users place any data in their account, they keep it. The more information that is stored in an account the stickier our service becomes,” Bob Lorsch, MMRGlobal CEO, stated in the press release.
MMR also noted that it currently is presenting its Interbit Data certified MEDITECH solution at the International MUSE Conference in Orlando, which will run through June 1. MEDITECH transfers patient records from MEDITECH EMR systems and delivers them into MMRPatientView, which can then be upgraded to a full-featured MyMedicalRecords PHR.

International Stem Cell Corp. (ISCO) Targets a Range of Diseases
International Stem Cell has developed a way to derive high quality stem cells without the need for fertilized embryos. Called parthenogenesis, the new process is seen as a source for stem cells that could treat a number of degenerative diseases, including diabetes, liver disease, retinal degeneration, spinal traumas, and other central nervous system injuries.
• Age related macular degeneration is one of the leading causes of blindness. Fully one third of all Americans over the age of 50 are considered at risk of developing the disease. Retinal cell transplantation has been shown to benefit patients and may become a key medical application of stem cells. Current retinal cell transplantation faces a lack of sufficient cells as well as immune rejection by the patient. The use of parthenogenetic stem cells (hpSC) represents a potential solution to both of these problems, and ISCO is working with leading research companies, scientists, and physicians to further increase production levels of the cells suitable for therapeutic use.
• Diabetes has become a major health care problem worldwide, with approximately 15% of healthcare dollars spent in the U.S. going toward the treatment of diabetes and related complications. Nearly 17 million Americans, over 6% of the population, currently have diabetes. Islets are a type of cell found in the pancreas which include beta cells that make insulin. Islet transplantation has been shown to be effective in helping diabetics, but is hampered by a lack of sufficient islets and by immune rejection. ISCO is working with Novocell, the world leader in the technology of deriving islet cells from stem cells, to produce islet cells from ISCO’s parthenogenetic stem cells.
• Chronic liver disease, including hepatitis C, is a common cause of death for people in the 34 to 64 age group, with annual health care costs approaching $100 billion in the U.S. The transplantation of hepatocytes, cells of the main tissue of the liver, can help treat those with the disease, but cell demand far exceeds supply. Derivation of hepatocyte cells from hpSC can be conducted concurrently with the derivation islet cells, and ISCO’s scientists are developing their own differentiation protocol based on existing technologies.
• ISCO scientists are also focused on deriving neural stem cells (NSC). These cells should be a pure population of the same cell type in order to avoid transformation into other cellular types. The use of NSC in regenerative therapy may provide a potential treatment for such neurodegenerative diseases as Alzheimer disease, Parkinsonism, and ALS (amyotrophic lateral sclerosis).

AlumiFuel Power Corp. (AFPW) Submits Specs to Air Force Customer on Its New PBIS-200 System
AlumiFuel Power, operating through its subsidiaries, is an early production stage hydrogen generation company. The company’s technology is ideally suited for multiple applications requiring on-site, on-demand fuel sources and serves both national security and commercial customers’ needs.
The company announced today that it has submitted detailed specifications on a new Portable Balloon Inflation System (PBIS)-200 to its US Air Force Special Operations customer at the customer’s request. The PBIS-200 is a scaled-down version of AlumiFuel Power’s PBIS-2000, which was designed and engineered to provide lift gas for 200 gram weather balloons. The new PBIS-200 system can be easily transported and rapidly deployed for launching 30 gram pilot balloons (the most common weather balloon) at even the remotest locations around the globe.
The current weather balloon lift gas market is estimated to be $200 million a year, with demand coming from both the military and meteorological organizations. These types of balloons have traditionally used helium gas as the lift gas but there has been a growing scarcity and increasing cost for helium. So users are increasingly switching to hydrogen gas as a substitute. The company’s PBIS systems are far more safe, mobile, and cost-effective than other competing hydrogen generation systems.
If the customer approves of the specs, AluniFuel Power will submit a formal quote to the customer for the PBIS-200. If the customer gives the go ahead, the company anticipates development of the system and delivery of the first unit within three months. Following successful field trials, it believes multiple units will be ordered from various sources.

Kimber Resources, Inc. (KBX) Returns High-Grade Gold and Silver Intercepts via New Drilling at Monterde Project in Mexico
Kimber Resources has built up a substantial gold/silver acreage position in Mexico that is best expressed via the company’s flagship Monterde project (100%-owned), which lies in the heart of the massive (112 sq mile) Sierra Madre Gold/Silver Belt and upon which the company reported today, with exceptional results coming back from the two new test holes drilled to test for new mineralization on previously undrilled land just northeast of the existing Carmen deposit.
The Carmen deposit (in addition to Monterde’s other two main deposits, the Carotare and Veta Minitas – total inferred resource estimates for the project as of May last year, and prior to new discoveries, project some 6.59M oz Au and 22.18M oz Ag) is the true focus of the project and this step-out onto additional acreage showing high-grade gold intercepts with abundant silver is indeed very promising news for KBX:
4.3 g/t Au and 166.6 g/t Ag over 6.9 feet
3.2 g/t Au and 222.0 g/t Ag over 4.9 feet
Some serious hits for Kimber on land that is just northeast of the Carmen deposit and the overall assay results are solid as well, indicating the structural mineralization here observed bears not only huge potential for further testing, but the chance of multiple structures. In fact, this view is supported by the proximal Cocos zone discovery (18.3 g/t Au and 374.3 g/t Ag over 23 feet – reported Jan 26, 2012) and the robust intercepts across the spectrum for today’s reported drilling results.
The multiple intercepts of high-grade gold/silver, while not as dramatic as those listed above, are a very strong indicator that the underlying geological model for Monterde is sound. More importantly the localized model for Carmen and the newly identified mineralization, dubbed Carmen East, is mapped out in great detail by the assays (ranging from 0.2 g/t Au up to 1.6 Au in other data points, with anywhere from 24.0 g/t Ag, up to 80.4 g/t). Looking at the data sets side-by-side it’s a pretty good bet to say KBX has their hands on a major find.
This adds handsomely to the company’s already strong land position in Mexico, bolstering the value of the flagship site and improving the outlook for the flagship’s main deposit. The increased output and work associated with new discoveries at Monterde benefit from the project’s excellent logistics, with paved and gravel roads dovetailing out to state Route 16 from the nearby town of San Rafael (full service infrastructure base and the Chihuahua el Pacifico Railway runs right through it), leading over to Chihuahua. In addition to this good location, there is an extensive network of roads on the site, with ample access (especially around the defined resource and projected extensions).
President and CEO of KBX, Gordon Cummings, was ecstatic, citing the impressive intercepts from Carmen East and underscoring the evidence for multiple structures with the kind of gold/silver returns that will make shareholders eyes light up. Cummings stressed the need for further drilling in the Carmen East zone to extend these findings, confident that the same geological profile that has made Carmen so successful, will pan out in Carmen East.
The dollar has strengthened recently, as European sovereign debt overhang and the auspices of a Grexit (with Spain and Italy still causing major concerns) drive capital into the greenback (USD trading at a 22-month high against the Euro). But even as India’s gold imports this month drop by more than half, the four month trough for the precious metal that has been money for some 5k years shows signs of filling, as Russia’s central bank looks to add 100 tons of gold to the reserve this year alone.

SunOpta, Inc. (STKL) to Divest Its Canadian Natural Health Products Business
SunOpta is a leading global company in its sector, focused on natural, organic, and specialty food products. Its core operations focus on value-added grains, fiber, and fruit-based products, supported by its global infrastructure with integrated operations, from seed through to the final packaged products.
The company announced today that it has signed a definitive agreement to sell its Canadian natural products distribution business, operated as Purity Life Natural Health Products, to an affiliate of Banyan Capital Partners. The transaction is valued at C$14.7 million and is expected to close, subject to certain conditions, early in June 2012.
Purity Life Natural Health Products distributes a wide range of natural health products, including dietary supplements, vitamins, natural body care, and environmentally-friendly household goods throughout Canada, and also manufactures a number of natural health care products. It is believed the company is the biggest stand-alone distributor of these types of products in Canada, with annual revenues of approximately C$60 million.
The sale of Purity is part of SunOpta’s strategy to focus on its core integrated natural and organic foods sourcing and processing platform. The company had sold its US food distribution assets in mid-2010 and this transaction now completes its exit from the distribution business. SunOpta’s president and CEO, Steve Bromley, said, “This transaction further simplifies and focuses our business model while strengthening our balance sheet and positioning our company for future growth opportunities.”

Quasar Aerospace Industries, Inc. (QASP) Brings Together the Best
Quasar Aerospace is a Florida-based holding company comprised of strategic subsidiaries in the aerospace industry, with a current focus on aircraft pilot training and aircraft services. Their goal has been to pursue a synergistic business strategy that combines carefully chosen aviation/aerospace business into an integrated and self-supporting network, which will have the ability to operate in a more complex strategic environment and to achieve greater success than would have been possible if they were operating individually.
Quasar targets companies with a proven track record and significant consolidated cash flow. The company does not intend to take over the operation of these already successful companies, but rather to have them retain their operational independence and unique corporate cultures. Quasar will simply provide them a supportive network from which they will all gain, through things like scalable economies and cooperative agreements.
To date, Quasar has brought together the following:
• Atlantic Aviation operates a flight school at Herlong Airport in Jacksonville, Florida, and plans to develop and operate flight schools nationwide to train aviation professionals around the country.
• Corporate Air Repair in Jacksonville, Florida, is categorized under Aircraft and Heavy Equipment Repair Services.
• A-Cent Aviation is the #1 flight training facility in Colorado Springs, with a safety record showing no accidents or incidents since opening in 2001.
A-Cent Aviation, as an example, has what some consider to be the best general aviation flight simulator of its kind in its home state of Colorado, a fully enclosed aircraft cockpit simulator with a 120-degree ultra-high resolution visual presentation. The company’s FAA testing center is strategically located in areas where demand is high and supply is low.
As aviation expands in developing countries, the anticipated worldwide pilot shortage is increasing the need for qualified flight training facilities, and Quasar is aggressively positioning itself to take advantage of that demand.

Unwired Planet, Inc. (UPIP) Captures Silicon Valley Airspace with Branded Zeppelin Promoting Pioneering Role Inventing the Mobile Internet
Unwired Planet (formerly, Openwave Systems, Inc.) has an impressive Intellectual Property (IP) track record, assembling a portfolio of over 200 issued U.S. and foreign patents (plus some 75 pending applications), with many of these key technologies being essentially foundational to mobile communications. The company practically invented the Mobile Internet and today announced a new pioneering breakthrough with the launch of a company-branded Zeppelin to take flight in the skies over Silicon Valley.
The flight plan calls for a month of airtime, driving awareness of the company’s rebirth as Unwired Planet, the founder of the Mobile Internet. Additionally, this endeavor will help to promote the company and industry itself by underscoring the important role that UPIP inventors/innovators have played, not only improving perception of the significant economic value created by UPIP’s tech pioneers, but their tremendous impact on the mobile communications industry as a whole.
Brilliant move for UPIP, which is focused on a core strategy emphasizing a multi-faceted, IP-amassing approach centered on deriving substantial shareholder value through aggressive licensing/partnering (and enforcement if necessary).
This announcement marks the first time a B2B technology company like Airship Ventures has thrown in on a sponsorship for a branded Zeppelin over Silicon Valley. The branding partnership between UPIP and Airship Ventures is a spectacular move that should really turn heads throughout the insular and extremely cohesive Silicon Valley community/culture. The company clearly knows what they are doing with this strategy and the anticipated attention this campaign will bring to both the change over in company branding and the core IP portfolio that spans mobile/smart device, cloud technology, and unified messaging platforms, will likely result in amplification of their monetization capacity.
CEO of UPIP, Mike Mulica, threw a spotlight on the primary role played by the company and its historical inventors in building the modern wireless internet environment, confident that this roll out will spark the imaginations of Silicon Valley goers, driving brand awareness for the new identity that is firmly grounded in the vital role played by UPIP. Mulica noted how the Unwired Planet name/concept revivifies that incredibly visionary period of the nascent mobile space, back when the foundational mobile patents were first issued, before any of the convenience we today take for granted was even realized.
Bold moves and statements, but then again we are talking about the company that did the planet’s first ever Wireless Access Protocol (WAP) deployment and has developed technology that plays a critical infrastructural role in the operations of high-profile massive players like AT&T, Comcast, Deutsche Telekom, Time Warner Cable, T-Mobile, Virgin Mobile, Vodacom, and Vodafone (to name just a few).
In a new analytical breakdown by Morgan Stanley, this robust space, dominated by devices like the Kindle, iPhone, Android, other smartphones, wireless tablets, wireless gaming systems, and even more advanced GPS devices (all of which are constantly improving as hardware/software improves), is projected to exceed desktop internet use by 2015. This means that the mobile space will be the new primary venue for activity and thus UPIP is well-positioned with its IP portfolio for the growth that will inevitably result from the burgeoning mobile pipeline.
In fact, with so much traffic migrating to mobile, UPIP’s multi-pronged patent monetization strategy (empowered by hard line moves like their recent International Trade Commission complaint filing, requesting that AAPL and RIM imports of smartphones into the U.S. be barred by the agency, as the company posits their patents are infringed thereby) should reap increasingly generous rewards for the company’s shareholders (the company filed a similar complaint in a federal district court in Delaware). The company believes it has a strong legal position to aggress the massive revenue generated by these large companies that have profited off of technology created by Unwired Planet.
A decade and a half on the front lines of the war to unify the world through internet connectivity, UPIP looks ready to re-emerge with a strong IP hand in the mobile space.

RegeneRx Biopharmaceuticals, Inc. (RGRX) TB4 Treatment Shown to Provide Both Neuroprotection and Neurorestoration after Traumatic Brain Injury in...
RegeneRx Biopharmaceuticals stated that data regarding their novel, therapeutic peptide, Thymosin beta 4 (TB4), was published in the May 2012 edition of the Journal of Neurosurgery, 116:1081—1092. The data shows that TB4 “provides both neuroprotection and neurorestoration after traumatic brain injury (TBI).”
The aims of the study were to test if TB4 treatment decreases brain damage and improves functional recovery in rats if the treatment is initiated 6 hours after traumatic brain injury. The research team states, “Compared with saline administration, TB4 treatment initiated 6 hours postinjury significantly improved sensorimotor functional recovery and spatial learning, reduced cortical lesion volume and hippocampal cell loss, and enhanced cell proliferation and neurogenesis in the injured hippocampus. Thymosin B4 treatment initiated 6 hours postinjury provides both neuroprotection and neurorestoration after TBI, indicating that TB4 has promising therapeutic potential in patients with TBI.”
“These results are extremely encouraging and are consistent with results of TB4 administration in other Central nervous system injuries, as well as in cardiovascular injury models. Moreover, the reduction of brain damage, improved motor function, and regeneration of injured brain tissue, when TB4 is administered 6 hours after TBI, suggest that it could potentially be useful for the treatment of brain traumas seen in the military, the workplace and in contact sports,” stated Dr. Allan Goldstein, Professor and Chairman Emeritus, Department of Biochemistry and Molecular Biology, The George Washington University School of Medicine, Washington, D.C. Dr. Goldstein is also chairman of and chief scientific advisor to RegeneRx.
The research team consisted of Xiong Y, Zhang Y, Mahmood A, Meng Y, Zhang ZG, Morris DC, and Chopp MJ. The researchers are from the Departments of Neurosurgery, Neurology, and Emergency Medicine at the Henry Ford Hospital System (HFHS), in Detroit, Michigan, and Department of Physics, Oakland University, in Rochester, Michigan, in accordance with a material transfer agreement between the RegeneRx Biopharmaceuticals, Inc. and Henry Ford Hospital.

ThermoEnergy Corp. (TMEN) System Assists Airports in Meeting New EPA De-Icing Regulations
ThermoEnergy announced that the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency’s final regulations regarding airport de-icing operations offer an opportunity for the company to assist airports in protecting the environment and saving money.
New regulations were put in place to protect the nation’s water, and they call for a more stringent permitting process for the collection of used aircraft de-icing fluids (ADF) and for removing chemical oxygen demand (COD) agents such as propylene glycol. The new rules also require the use of best available technology standards (BAT) at every airport that directly discharges wastewater in U.S. waterways. In addition, the new standards call for a minimum COD effluent removal rate of 97%.
ThermoEnergy’s ADF Recovery System can meet and exceed BAT performance standards and boasts a recovery of glycol of 99% purity that meets ASTM standards for recovered glycol. This elevated purity of the recovered glycol allows airports to sell it to recyclers and generate revenue to offset de-icing operational costs. This is a potentially huge benefit to airports, as new EPA rules are expected to cause a significant increase in de-icing operational costs.
“We can reduce the cost of de-icing operations by up to 50% by recycling the spent glycol in the aircraft de-icing fluid,” said ThermoEnergy Chairman and CEO, Cary Bullock. “We look forward to providing airports and the environment with the benefits our technology.”
Inland Waters of Ohio has been successfully operating a ThermoEnergy ADF Recovery System for five years at Cleveland Hopkins International Airport. To view a video of that glycol recovery system, visit http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KJjnmns.

Beacon Enterprise Solutions Group, Inc. (BEAC) and Executive Stock Purchases
The purchase of stock by a company’s own executives has always drawn the attention of investors. There are a number of different reasons that one or more members of a company’s management team may choose to purchase the company’s stock, and there are associated limitations regarding when they are, or are not, allowed to do it. Correspondingly, every investor seems to have their own ideas about why such purchases may be significant.
Perhaps the main reason investors want to know about in-house stock purchases is the perceived possibility, even though there are obviously restrictions on dealing shares based upon insider information, that a company’s executives may know something outsiders do not. These are the people, after all, who are running the company every day, who must have an intimate knowledge of its strengths and weaknesses, and who should have a vision of where the organization is headed. Although there are studies that suggest insider purchases may indeed signal an upward movement in share price, there are many variables to consider. Is the purchase being made by an outside director or an inside executive? Is it just one executive or many? Is the purchase mostly for PR reasons, or based upon a real confidence in the company’s future? And just how long term is that confidence?
When Beacon Enterprise, a global provider of Information Technology infrastructure solutions, recently announced that their senior management and directors will be making voluntary open-market purchases of the company’s common stock at various prices, and that the company will establish a formal Executive Stock Purchase Program, it carried some weight. The reason was that it involved a number of executives who had expressed a personal desire to engage in such purchases, following a required waiting period after the filing of Beacon’s 10Q. The statement suggested that there was a general feeling that the company’s share price was a bargain based upon its market value and growth prospects.
