Gryphon Gold Corp. (GYPH) JV with Waterton Improves Operational Dynamics, Borealis Site Expansion Slated
Gryphon Gold, who sold roughly 1.58k ounces of gold (32 tons of loaded carbon) during fiscal 2012 via their Borealis Oxide Heap Leach Operation in Nevada, reported entry today into an agreement package with Waterton Global Value L.P. and one of its subsidiaries to expand this extremely productive operation via a joint venture.
Waterton will obtain a 60% ownership interest in GYPH’s operating subsidiary, Borealis Mining Company, via the agreement, which will see Waterton converting the lion’s share currently outstanding under the Senior Credit Facility ($17M, or roughly two-thirds). This brings the amount in the Senior Credit Facility down to only $8M, shearing monthly debt payments (starting Jan 31) from $1.4M to an easily manageable $0.4M and creating a robust capital structure from which to engage production expansion efforts at Borealis.
This is great news for GYPH, which was lucky to find and quickly get a new boiler in at their ADR plant (adsoption, desorption, and recovery) after the old one failed recently (reported Jan 15). The ADR facility, able to strip four tons of carbon per day, was completed back in May of 2012, and thanks to a quick turnaround with the boiler, GYPH has managed to sell 3,280 gold equivalent ounces in Q1 of FY13. This JV will help up the output at Borealis a great deal, thanks not only to the capital support enabling additional crushing capacity expansion and hauling equipment purchases, but because Waterton brings a “wealth of technical expertise and successful gold mining experience” to the table, according to CEO and Interim CFO of GYPH, James T. O’Neil Jr.
O’Neil assured markets that this JV would strengthen the Borealis operation considerably and lead to an increased overall mining/production effort. In conjunction with this important move to shore up debt and form a new tactical front via the JV, Gryphon Gold and Waterton have entered into an operational and financial obligation arrangement with several key stipulations:
Gryphon shall pay $4M compensation to the JV to settle extant obligations incurred prior to the deal, as well as their share (40%) of the contemplated initial $4M capital contribution
» Waterton will advance $5.6M to Gryphon ($3M already in) to cover initial capital contributions to the JV (to be repaid with escalating interest by July 31)
» Borealis ownership percentage will determine each parties required obligation for ongoing capital contributions, with all determinations going through the Borealis board of managers
» Dilution of ownership will be the consequence of failure to meet financial obligations by either party, in addition to which Gryphon, if failing to meet monthly Senior Credit Facility obligations, shall incur the same dilution penalty as per terms of the associated Credit Agreement
Portfolio Manager at Waterton, Cheryl Brandon, summed it all up nicely noting that a combination of near-term output upgrade initiatives being undertaken at Borealis and Waterton’s added financial/logistical muscle should jack up both recovery rate and mine life parameters. A solid, solid move for GYPH, who can now focus confidently on material aspects of the operation, impelled by these new dynamics and better able to wring out improved returns from the Borealis site for their shareholders.

ZBB Energy Corp. (ZBB) Secures Access to Massive Russian/CIS Distributed Energy Markets via Deal with Established Distributor
ZBB Energy, developer and manufacturer of extremely sophisticated energy storage and on/off-grid intelligent power control platform solutions which allow for easy integration of both conventional and renewable sources, announced entry into the Russian and Commonwealth of Independent States (CIS) markets in a big way today via inking of a strategic relationship with the firmly established, Moscow-based distributed generation supplier, BPC Engineering.
This play affords ZBB a huge in with relevant markets, spring boarding product penetration into these vast arenas thanks to BPC’s network of connections that circuit the entire space. The strategic agreement mandates that not only will BPC support ZBB’s product portfolio across its entire consumer end-point array (effective immediately), but that an initial purchase order (already received) is made for a complete ZBB EnerSystem™, consisting of the revolutionary EnerStore™ flow battery and EnerSection™ power/control center.
President and CEO of ZBB, Eric Apfelbach, posted this as another big win on the leaderboard for ZBB in the energy storage and power control platform sector. Apfelbach emphasized how the deal shows that once again ZBB can execute mightily where identified convergence of grid infrastructure demand, a massive growth market, and a “trusted partner with the skills to sell/support” the company’s equipment creates a perfect storm of opportunities.
Apfelbach beamed with excitement at the potential for the company’s extremely modular concepts and designs, underscoring how such systems can be rapidly deployed into this vast market with virtually zero engineering effort, bringing non-stop ROI to end users while making ZBB and BPC rich. BPC is the ideal partner here for sure, having been established back in 1995 and then rising quickly to a position of considerable prominence in banking technologies, power systems, and chemical technologies as well. BPC is in a perfect position to distribute ZBB’s products and sits at a kind of nexus for several key Russian/CIS industries, with a clear reputation for cutting-edge technology and time-honored practice, the hardware will practically sell itself on strength of BPC’s reputation alone.
CEO of BPC, Alexander Skorokhodov, asseverated these sentiments wholeheartedly, adding that the tremendous prospects for what is the most advanced hardware in its segment, look to BPC as a wonderful chance to really connect with their core Russian consumer base that has been eagerly anticipating such breakthroughs in distributed generation. Skorokhodov was keen on the robust engineering that will help amp up long-term reliability and efficiency, obviously content with this marriage of bleeding-edge technological advancement and rock-solid performance capability represented by the ZBB lineup.
Executive VP of Global Business Development for ZBB, Dan Nordloh, impressed by the significant market BPC has carved out in Russia and the CIS, dropped some major kudos to BPC management for developing such a hearty network of firm relationships spanning these giant markets. Nordloh pointed to how BPC has managed to not only continue to innovate, but also maintain the complex juggling act required to make good use of ZBB’s offerings, a juggling act that runs the gamut from selling to supporting distributed power and energy system deployments in the field. Nordloh conveyed the excitement at ZBB over getting the first installation done and embarking on what should be a very mutually profitable strategic relationship between the two companies.

Magnolia Solar Corp. (MGLT) Reaches Developmental Milestone, Advances Antireflection Solar Technology
Magnolia Solar has reached a developmental milestone that it believes advances nanostructured antireflection (AR) coating technology closer to commercial application.
Working with the College of Nanoscale Science and Engineering (CNSE) of the University at Albany, Magnolia Solar reported that it has achieved high-quality 6-inch growth of nanostructured AR coatings on glass for solar cell applications. Most silicon solar cells and high-efficiency thin film solar cells produced today measure approximately 4 inches, the company noted.
Fixed, flat-plate solar cell modules characteristically experience significant reductions in power output as light reflects off the front glass, depending on the time of the day and position of the sun in relation. Magnolia Solar’s goal is to use its AR coating technology to maximize solar energy absorption and minimize reflection losses to less than approximately 1% during peak sunlight hours, resulting in solar panels with extended hours of productivity each day. Thus far, at large angles of incidence during morning and late afternoon hours, the company said that reflection losses have been reduced from more than 25% to less than 5%.
“Such reflection losses are especially severe early in morning and late in the afternoon when the sun is lower in the horizon. Reflection losses also occur throughout the day, particularly as diffused sunlight falls on a solar panel at glancing angles,” Dr. Ashok K. Sood, president and CEO of Magnolia Solar Corp. stated in the press release. “We believe this patent-pending technology is superior to what is currently available in the market and has the potential to benefit a wide variety of specialized military and commercial applications. Magnolia Solar is currently focused on developing a larger scale process for the deposition of nanostructured optical coatings.”
Magnolia Solar has filed multiple patents to protect its intellectual property.

VistaGen Therapeutics, Inc. (VSTA) to Profit from Growing Need for Better Approach
A recent article by Ryan McBride in biotech industry newsletter FierceBiotech (http://dtg.fm/i12W) highlights a major transition that needs to occur in the pharmaceutical industry.
The article points to a speech by Ken Kaitin, director of the Tufts Center for the Study of Drug Development, suggesting that drug development companies need to fix broken areas of development that are costing them billions of dollars from unnecessary procedures in clinical trials. Kaitin’s group expects pharma to replace traditional trial-and-error testing methods with newer approaches, such as biomarkers, modeling, and simulation, all in an effort to reduce failures and associated costs, costs which payers are increasingly reluctant to accept.
It’s exactly the issue that is being addressed by VistaGen Therapeutics’ proprietary stem cell technologies. VistaGen is a California-based biotechnology company applying its human pluripotent stem cell technology for drug rescue applications, including predictive toxicology and drug metabolism screening. The company intends to use its proprietary technology to discover, rescue, and develop novel drug candidates for a wide range of diseases.
The company’s platform, Human Clinical Trials in a Test Tube, is based on the differentiation of human pluripotent stem cells into multiple types of mature human heart and liver cells which can then be used to provide clinically relevant predictions of potential toxicity. Determination of toxicity at these early stages, far earlier than standard clinical trials, means that drug candidates have a chance of being modified for a successful outcome, saving tremendous amounts of money.
Many otherwise promising drug candidates have been shelved due to toxicity issues that surfaced well into the development and introduction process, representing major losses for drug companies. It suggests a growing recognition of the incredible value offered by technologies such as those VistaGen represents.

Kaitin’s group expects pharma to replace traditional trial-and-error testing methods with newer approaches, such as biomarkers, modeling, and simulation, all in an effort to reduce failures and associated costs, costs which payers are increasingly reluctant to accept.
It’s exactly the issue that is being addressed by VistaGen Therapeutics’ proprietary stem cell technologies. VistaGen is a California-based biotechnology company applying its human pluripotent stem cell technology for drug rescue applications, including predictive toxicology and drug metabolism screening. The company intends to use its proprietary technology to discover, rescue, and develop novel drug candidates for a wide range of diseases.
The company’s platform, Human Clinical Trials in a Test Tube, is based on the differentiation of human pluripotent stem cells into multiple types of mature human heart and liver cells which can then be used to provide clinically relevant predictions of potential toxicity. Determination of toxicity at these early stages, far earlier than standard clinical trials, means that drug candidates have a chance of being modified for a successful outcome, saving tremendous amounts of money.
Many otherwise promising drug candidates have been shelved due to toxicity issues that surfaced well into the development and introduction process, representing major losses for drug companies. It suggests a growing recognition of the incredible value offered by technologies such as those VistaGen represents.

GlobalWise Investments, Inc. (GWIV) and the Cloud’s Transforming Nature
Accessing the Internet has become such a normal part of daily life, whether through computer or mobile device, that it’s beginning to become invisible, done almost without awareness. Today, the ascent of cloud technology is greatly accelerating the trend. Improvements in security and communication, together with more sophisticated ways of integrating cloud and on-site technology, has begun to quietly place a world of information and functionality in the hands of every user.
GlobalWise Investments, offering Enterprise Content Management (ECM) as a cloud based or local solution for document management, has taken such integration to a new level. The system allows companies to effortlessly capture and index critical documents as part of their normal copy/scan process, through seamless integration with leading printer/copier systems. These documents are then available for strictly authorized access worldwide 24/7. Leading hardware vendors such as Lexmark, Samsung, DELL, and many others already recognize the future of ECM and are now directly integrating into the Intellinetics Intellivue cloud platform.
William J. “BJ” Santiago, President & CEO of GlobalWise, summarized the economic advantages of their unique ECM business model, “Many in the industry have called our flagship software a ‘channel changer’ because our user-friendly model is similar to the traditional per click charge standard, but introduces a fixed cost model that appeals to a wider customer base. Therefore, the end-user no longer has to worry about being charged more money for each mono (black and white), color or virtual image scan (i.e. Video, Audio, JPEG, PPT, Excel, etc.). Intellivue allows the end-user to scan both hard-copy and virtual images, as well as index, search, and retrieve archived data via the cloud, in the same model in which they buy their products today through their dealer. Instead of a per page or per click charge, there is simply a capacity based monthly subscription fee.”

Advaxis, Inc. (ADXS) Presentation Highlights Superior Approach to Fighting Cancer
Thomas A. Moore, the Chairman and CEO of Advaxis, a New Jersey based biotech company focused on using bio-engineered bacteria to help the immune system fight cancer and other diseases, recently gave a presentation at the 6th Annual OneMedForum Conference, a platform for the newest ideas and companies in health and medicine. The presentation provided an opportunity to summarize the goals, unique strengths, and accomplishments of Advaxis as it helps lead what is becoming a revolution in the treatment of cancer and infectious diseases.
Mr. Moore showed how Advaxis is an immunotherapy company that is different in that, through use of a genetic immune response against a safe version of a common pathogen, the company’s platform technology is designed to:
• Drive a more comprehensive therapeutic response
• Overcome tumor protection mechanisms at the tumor as in no other treatment
• Create “epitope spreading” beyond targeted antigens, a sort of immune memory for long term effects
Mr. Moore emphasized that this superior technology for fighting cancer is a very well developed, with many peer reviewed papers and over 70 issued and pending patents. As an immunotherapy based therapy, it is not a poison based approach such as chemotherapy, where healthy cells are killed in attacking disease cells. It’s an approach that can work throughout all parts of the body at the same time, since it is based upon the body’s own immune system.
The Advaxis approach leads to a 300% increase in killer T cells present in the tumor, while simultaneously reducing by a full 80% the number of cells around the tumor that tend to deactivate killer T cells. The approach also turns the immune system on in such a way that it enables it to attack new targets. Initial results are encouraging, with animal studies showing a 75% tumor reduction. In addition, early safety studies on humans have shown no adverse effects.

Wiless Controls, Inc. (IMEK) Forms Alliance with Metropolitan Industries to Advance Wireless M2M System to Market
Wiless Controls has entered into a strategic alliance with Metropolitan Industries to foster the companies’ year-long collaborative relationship and to accelerate the production and deployment of the Wireless Machine-to-Machine (M2M) system.
The Wiless Controls’ M2M “plug and play” platform was designed for a wide range of commercial, consumer, and industrial applications, and has been prepared for commercial introduction.
“Over the last year, our relationship with Metropolitan has grown stronger and more expansive,” Michel St-Pierre, CEO of Wiless Controls stated in the press release. “Metropolitan has been integral in the development of our M2M package, including our beta launch last year. As we are now ready for a commercial launch of the product, partnering with a company with the portfolio of clients, staff, and financial strength of Metropolitan provides us invaluable resources to penetrate multiple verticals simultaneously. We could not be more pleased to have formalized our relationship and look forward to the successful commercialization of our M2M technology.”
The agreement leverages the strengths of Wiless Controls and Metropolitan Industries, combining all aspects of a complete infrastructure to achieve rapid, targeted market penetration; additional R&D of new products and applications; production of the key components; and management of the network, Web application and user interface.
“It is evident to us and everyone in the industry that the day of wirelessly monitoring and controlling assets in real time, which is what the M2M industry is all about, is upon us,” John Kochan Jr, CEO of Metropolitan Industries stated. “We see a wide array of benefits in our various markets at Metropolitan, albeit industrial, commercial or consumer-oriented products and services. In business for more than 50 years, with clients from consumers to government, Metropolitan’s size and production expertise will greatly supplement Wiless Controls’ innovative product development. We have exhibited the system at trade shows and have an operational demonstration running at our facilities, which has resulted in on-the-spot sales and a tremendous amount of interest already. We are excited about where this new alliance with Wiless Controls can lead both the near and long term.”

Richfield Oil & Gas Co. (ROIL) Begins Trading on Qualified OTC Marketplace OTCQX
Richfield Oil & Gas today joins the cream of the crop on OTC Markets Group’s premier platform, the OTCQX®, where timely financial and reporting standards have skimmed off high-quality U.S. companies such as this Utah-based hydrocarbon developer, which has an extensive footprint of producing oil and gas assets in Kansas and Wyoming, as well as ancillary development assets in Oklahoma and Utah. OTCQX brings quality-control and a level of marketplace services formerly only available to companies and their investors via a traditional U.S. exchange.
OTCQX is a great venue for drawing interest and represents the highest financial standards and third-party sponsorship in the OTC space. This move is a firm commitment by Richfield to doubling-down on U.S. investor engagement metrics and is wholly in line with an established practice of maintaining consistent, superior-quality data and reporting, such that markets are able to make intelligent decisions on the company’s securities.
CEO of ROIL, Douglas C. Hewitt, Sr., affirmed the company’s dedication to ensuring that investors are able to do comprehensive analysis and be totally confident in the fact that they have a circumspect valuation, emphasizing how important it is to management that investors are able to make the best trades possible when it comes to ROIL. Hewitt conveyed a strong sense of understanding about how timely, accurate news and top-shelf data is the cement which bonds together company/shareholder relationships.
President and CEO of OTC Markets Group, R. Cromwell Coulson, stressed how crucial the philosophy of open, transparent, and connected financial marketplaces was in today’s environment, welcoming ROIL’s move to the top-tier of the OTC space. Coulson detailed how OTCQX is a prime way to show investors that the company is a cut above other OTC listings, adding that with a fully electronic marketplace which is also compliance-driven, you have a nexus of easy access and consistent reportage.
A solid dynamics move for ROIL to throw a spotlight on their growing portfolio of domestic hydrocarbon interests, having recently (Jan 9) snapped up a 100% WI in a 640-acre producing (Wasatch National Forest Well #16-15) mineral lease in the Graham Reservoir oil field, Uinta County, Wyoming.

Viscount Systems, Inc. (VSYS) to Secure Four High Rise Towers in Vancouver
Viscount Systems, a leading-edge supplier of security systems and software, announced this morning that it will be retrofitting a mixed-use complex in Vancouver with MESH Touch Screens, Freedom Access Control, and video. The area to be secured includes four high-rise towers, commercial and retail areas, as well as underground parking. The value of the contract has been reported at just under $200,000.
“This project highlights a primary advantage of our Freedom access control technology for retrofit projects,” stated Stephen Pineau, CEO of Viscount. “Because most existing systems are highly proprietary, retrofitting a security system normally requires the replacement of every system component including access cards and the card readers at each door. However, Freedom is a software platform than can read the card of almost every existing supplier. By allowing the client to make use of their existing cards and door readers we were able to provide a significant cost advantage before any other component was even included.”
Designing security systems since 1969, Viscount has developed strategic working relationships with leading equipment vendors to support its continued profitability and growth. The company’s products have been installed in approximately 35,000 sites in over 30 countries, including prisons, schools, hospitals, government facilities, and corporate offices.

Cardium Therapeutics, Inc. (CXM) Presents at the 2013 Cell & Gene Therapy Forum
Today before the opening bell, Cardium Therapeutics announced its Chief Scientific Officer, Gabor M. Rubanyi, M.D., Ph.D. delivered a presentation at the 2013 Phacilitate Annual Cell & Gene Therapy Forum in Washington, DC. The presentation, titled “Optimizing Phase III Trial Design for Generx® (Ad5FGF-4),” outlined the current scientific knowledge about the mechanistic basis of adaptive coronary collateral growth, the biological processes to be targeted by therapeutic angiogenesis, and the lessons learned during the past decade of the company’s Generx clinical development program.
If you would like to view the presentation, visit http://www.cardiumthx.com/generx.html.
“The presentation yesterday reviewed new techniques that have been implemented to optimize our international Phase 3 ASPIRE clinical study for the Company’s Generx® (Ad5FGF-4) DNA-based angiogenic growth factor drug candidate, including: (1) diagnostic identification of patients likely to be more responsive to angiogenic therapy; (2) new balloon catheter-based delivery methods designed to boost adenovector gene delivery and enhance angiogenic growth factor efficiency; and (3) selection of relevant clinical endpoints which may be useful in future clinical studies and help advance the field of therapeutic angiogenesis,” stated Christopher J. Reinhard, Cardium’s Chairman and CEO.
Generx is an interventional cardiology-focused product candidate that is being developed to offer a one-time, non-surgical option for the treatment of a medical condition termed cardiac microvascular insufficiency (CMI) in patients with myocardial ischemia and symptomatic chronic stable angina pectoris due to coronary artery disease. Patients with CMI have had an insufficient angiogenic response to their current disease state and may benefit from a biological therapy that enhances cardiac perfusion through the facilitation of collateral vessel formation. Currently, patient inclusion in the ASPIRE study requires evidence of stress induced reversible myocardial ischemia as measured by SPECT imaging. The goal of the company’s Generx product candidate is to improve blood flow to the heart muscle by promoting and enhancing cardiac perfusion through the enlargement of pre-existing collateral arterioles (arteriogenesis) and the formation of new capillary vessels (angiogenesis). Various catheter-based imaging diagnostics including fractional flow reserve and washout collaterometry could enhance the clinical adoption of this non-surgical therapeutic angiogenesis approach following initial registration.
Cardium’s extensive preclinical and clinical studies have been instrumental in identifying cardiac ischemia as a key facilitator of non-surgical DNA-based angiogenic therapy. Improved adenovector administration methods combine non-surgical, percutaneous balloon catheter-based delivery to transiently induce ischemia together with the use of nitroglycerin to enhance vector uptake. By increasing cell transfection efficiency and reaching both the peri-ischemic regions and pre-existing collaterals in the heart, this modified approach offers the potential to effectively simulate both angiogenesis and arteriogenesis to bring about improved blood flow. Cardium’s new delivery techniques are also designed to provide uniform Generx uptake, to reduce response variability and to allow for the potential treatment of patients with a broader range of associated coronary artery disease.
Cardium has modified the primary endpoint of the ASPIRE clinical study from the traditional measure of improvement in treadmill exercise time (ETT) to a more objective efficacy endpoint of reduction in reversible perfusion deficit based on SPECT myocardial perfusion imaging. Similar to mechanical/surgical cardiac revascularization approaches, the goal of Generx treatment is to improve myocardial perfusion (blood flow). SPECT myocardial perfusion imaging can be used to quantitatively evaluate Generx’s effectiveness by measuring improved myocardial blood flow under stress, a key prognostic indicator that is associated with the regenerative process of new collateral vessel formation in and around the regions of ischemia. While walking time during ETT has been a traditional efficacy measure of anti-anginal drugs, it is based on a subjective assessment of chest pain (angina pectoris), does not directly measure improvements in cardiac blood flow, and can be affected by other variables.
Positive results from the prior Phase 2a clinical study (Grines et al., J Am Coll Cardiol 2003; 42:1339-47) showed that Generx improved myocardial blood flow in the ischemic region of the hearts of patients following a single intracoronary infusion as measured by the objective efficacy endpoint of SPECT imaging. The observed treatment effect for patients receiving Generx was similar in magnitude to that reported in the literature for patients undergoing angioplasty/stent or revascularization procedures with reversible perfusion defects of comparable size at one year following these procedures.

Tianli Agritech, Inc. (OINK) to Launch Black Hog Pork Products in Beijing Supermarket Chains
China-based hog producer Tianli Agritech announced that it is launching its black hog products in several regional supermarket chains in Beijing, including HAU LIAN and YONG HUI. Beijing is the largest pork consuming market in China with an estimated 10 million hogs consumed annually as fresh, refrigerated, and frozen meat cuts.
Tianl’s black hog pork cuts will be introduced under the Tianli-Xiduhei™ brand in advance of Chinese New Year celebrations. The Tianli-Xiduhei™ black hogs and its meat cuts are a product of the company’s “10,000 families and 1,000,000 Black Hogs” program in Enshi Prefecture, Hubei Province. Under the auspices of the local government, Tianli is supporting local farming, breeding, and production of black hogs fed with its proprietary feed formula.
Hanying Li, Chairwoman and CEO of Tianli Agritech, remarked, “Entering the Beijing market is an important milestone for our black hogs program. Tianli’s goal is to serve premium quality pork to the general market. Success in the Beijing market will validate our 10,000 families and 1,000,000 Black Hogs program and also contribute to our revenues and earnings in 2013.”
Black hog meat is known throughout China as a superior pork product, rich in flavor, macronutrients, and naturally-occurring antioxidants like selenium. Selenium is used in treating diseases of the heart and blood vessels, including hardening of the arteries. Trace levels of selenium are found in many plants and protein foods which are widely respected for their health benefits by Chinese consumers. Tianli-Xiduhei™ will highlight the selenium content in its black hog meat cuts on its packaging and marketing.

Dejour Energy Inc. (DEJ) Secures 30-Year E&P Management/Finance Pro David Matheson
Dejour Energy, the domestic hydrocarbon developer with some 129k net acres in the Piceance and Uinta basins of Colorado and Utah, as well as another 8.5k net acres in the Peace River Arch area of British Columbia and Alberta, today reported tapping 30-year industry management and finance veteran David Matheson for the CFO position.
CEO and Co-Chairman of DEJ, Robert Hodgkinson, conveyed the enthusiasm of the entire Dejour team in welcoming Matheson, whose reputation within the oil and gas sector precedes him, to the company at what is a most “pivotal time” in its development. With production ramping up across the portfolio at DEJ, a seasoned pro like David will be instrumental in assembling the capital base needed to fully realize the potential of the company’s continuously expanding resource footprint.
Matheson brings an impressive track record in managerial and finance work to the DEJ team, having held numerous similar positions throughout the sector, like the CFO position over at Canadian hydrocarbon developer Equatorial Energy Ltd., where he excelled to the point that he became president of the company. The progression says it all about David’s stewardship, from its humble start up, through to a TSX listing and market cap exceeding $400M, finally eventuating in sale to fellow Canadian energy developer Resolute Energy.
Matheson also founded the successful private oil and gas firm Java Petroleum Corp., which saw heavily focused activity in the Western Canadian Sedimentary Basin that cuts through Alberta, BC, and Saskatchewan, acting also as President and CEO of that outfit. Again a successful over watch by Matheson which eventuated in a good sale, in that case to the TSX-listed Southern Pacific Resources Ltd.
The recent (Jan 2) securing of $6.5M in non-dilutive financial backing by a local, private, Denver-based drilling fund to help complete the first four wells on their 2.2k acre Kokopelli field development project in the Piceance, which has ideal structural positioning for Williams Fork/Mancos production, is a huge lead-in for Matheson and he clearly has his work cut out for him. Matheson will be straining at the reins to tackle the broad, emerging production front line DEJ has put together, with some learned strategies right out of the gate.
Management is banking on Matheson’s time-tested ability to produce results and eyes his extensive communication skills, as well as proficiencies for navigating the complex financial circuits of the industry, with great anticipation. Hodgkinson made particular note of how impressed he was by the “significant business successes” achieved in the past with Matheson and how much he looked forward to doing it again, this time across the spectrum of core projects currently in the company’s E&P hopper. Matheson is being tagged here not only for his solid track record but also a first-hand proven ability to innovate on the fly.
Hodgkinson also saluted outgoing CFO, Mathew Wong, whose dedicated service to the company was remarked as having helped bring DEJ to this momentous phase in its evolution, ever since its start up reactivation back in 2004. Matheson, who looks quite able to fill the CFO shoes amply, is a graduate of the University of British Columbia and was admitted into the Institutes of Chartered Accountants (BC/Canada/Northwest Territories) back in 1975.

The recent (Jan 2) securing of $6.5M in non-dilutive financial backing by a local, private, Denver-based drilling fund to help complete the first four wells on their 2.2k acre Kokopelli field development project in the Piceance, which has ideal structural positioning for Williams Fork/Mancos production, is a huge lead-in for Matheson and he clearly has his work cut out for him. Matheson will be straining at the reins to tackle the broad, emerging production front line DEJ has put together, with some learned strategies right out of the gate.
Management is banking on Matheson’s time-tested ability to produce results and eyes his extensive communication skills, as well as proficiencies for navigating the complex financial circuits of the industry, with great anticipation. Hodgkinson made particular note of how impressed he was by the “significant business successes” achieved in the past with Matheson and how much he looked forward to doing it again, this time across the spectrum of core projects currently in the company’s E&P hopper. Matheson is being tagged here not only for his solid track record but also a first-hand proven ability to innovate on the fly.
Hodgkinson also saluted outgoing CFO, Mathew Wong, whose dedicated service to the company was remarked as having helped bring DEJ to this momentous phase in its evolution, ever since its start up reactivation back in 2004. Matheson, who looks quite able to fill the CFO shoes amply, is a graduate of the University of British Columbia and was admitted into the Institutes of Chartered Accountants (BC/Canada/Northwest Territories) back in 1975.

Boston Therapeutics, Inc. (BTHE) Reports Favorable Results of SUGARDOWN Clinical Trial
Boston Therapeutics today announced positive results of a clinical study of its SUGARDOWN® product, a non-systemic chewable dietary supplement tablet designed to reduce the spike in post-meal blood glucose. SUGARDOWN is designed to be taken before meals to block the action of carbohydrate-hydrolyzing enzymes, which break down carbohydrates into glucose and release them into the bloodstream.
Conducted at the University of Sydney in Australia, the clinical trial showed that the post-meal incremental area under the curve (iAUC) for glucose and insulin were significantly lower following consumption of SUGARDOWN prior to a high carbohydrate meal of rice in a dose-dependent manner.
SUGARDOWN was tested at two doses in 10 healthy, non-smoking subjects, resulting in a reduction of up to 61 percent in post-meal elevation of blood glucose compared with the rice consumed alone. On average, there was a 32 percent reduction in the post-meal iAUC for glucose and a 24 percent reduction in post-meal insulin.
“These study results demonstrate that SUGARDOWN dietary supplement tablets can have a significant effect in reducing post-meal glucose and insulin responses,” David Platt, Ph.D., CEO of Boston Therapeutics stated in the press release. “Such a nutritional approach may be valuable in the management of blood sugar and could enhance the role of functional dietary supplements as part of a diabetes management plan.”
Boston Therapeutics reports that no severe adverse effects were reported or observed during the study.

TeleCommunications Systems, Inc. (TSYS) Finishes Phase 1 Implementation of Statewide Next Generation 9-1-1 Services Network for State of Iowa
TeleCommunication Systems, a leader in highly dependable and secure mobile communication technology worldwide, announced that the Next Generation 9-1-1 services network for the State of Iowa has entered phase one deployment. This milestone makes Iowa the first state to complete a comprehensive statewide deployment of a National Emergency Number Association (NENA) i3-compliant Next Generation 9-1-1 (NG 9-1-1) system. This cutting edge emergency services network provides an improvement for the public’s access to 9-1-1 by using TCS’s innovative technology and provides the foundation for people in Iowa to eventually transmit text, images, and video to public safety answering points (PSAPs).
Every one of the 119 PSAPs in Iowa are now interconnected within the NG9-1-1 system in accordance with the NENA i3 specifications, making the Iowa network the largest continuous NG9-1-1 network in the United States. All wireless 9-1-1 traffic from wireless telecommunications operators will be sent through the Iowa NG9-1-1 system. Once the communications enter the system, they are processed and routed to the appropriate PSAP. The implementation of the new system allows Iowa’s emergency services network to receive and process requests from legacy and new technologies, while maintaining full compliance with NENA i3 specifications. This deployment is the first phase of a five-year contract with the State of Iowa Homeland Security Emergency Management Division (HSEMD) for NG 9-1-1 systems and services.
TCS’ NG9-1-1 solution offers options to public safety providers that increase control over the system, bypass costly legacy architecture, and deploy the solution as systems, services, or a mix of the two within any existing IP network.

VIASPACE, Inc. (VSPC) Reports Further Penetration into South Africa with Proprietary, High-Yield Energy Crop
Today before the opening bell, VIASPACE announced that it has entered a project agreement and received initial funding from Selectra CC of Johannesburg South Africa. Dr. Carl Kukkonen, VIASPACE CEO, delivered Giant King™ Grass (GKG) to South Africa, supervised the first planting, and held business meetings with Selectra and their partners.
A leading developer of sustainable bioenergy projects in Africa, Selectra sought out Giant King Grass as a dedicated energy crop. According to today’s press release, Selectra is considering both biogas and direct combustion biomass power plants. VIASPACE and Selectra could join forces on other projects in the future.
Selectra secured an import permit from the South African government for the high-yield energy crop. US agriculture officials inspected the VIASPACE nursery in California and witnessed the treatment required by South Africa. The government then issued the phytosanitary certificate stating that the Giant King Grass was free of disease and pests.
The first project from Selectra is to produce energy on land that has been affected by mining in South Africa. There are thousands of hectares of “mine dumps” or more correctly stated slimes dams and mine tailings (the footprint that remains after a slimes dam has been removed for further processing).
Giant King Grass is a candidate crop to remediate mine affected land through the removal of heavy metals by phytoremediation and by returning organic matter into the tailings to make soil. The crop could also reduce dust and erosion on the slimes dams and, as a result, contribute to better health for local communities. Giant King Grass promises to be a truly sustainable solution as the grass is then harvested for bioenergy applications, offsetting the costs of the program.
“South Africa has a good climate for Giant King Grass and we are pleased to be working with Selectra,” said Dr. Carl Kukkonen. “We are certain that Giant King Grass will grow well on the unmined land, and are hopeful about the prospects for bio remediation of the mine dumps and tailings. The Giant King Grass test plantings will tell us whether Giant King Grass will grow on dumps and tailings or not. We cannot guarantee the results, but if Giant King Grass can be successfully grown on mine affected land, this will represent another very large market.”
Selectra Commercial Director Dwight Rosslee added, “We have grown beets and sorghum on the tailings dams. These are annual crops. We believe that Giant King Grass will have significant advantages because it is a perennial crop that does not require replanting every year, and the root system will deposit organic matter into the soil. If it is successful, we plan to build a biomass power plant to generate electricity from the Giant King Grass. We will have taken a major environmental problem and turned it into a major asset.”
VIASPACE Chairman, Dr. Kevin Schewe, commented, “We are genuinely excited about our project with Selectra in South Africa to grow GKG on unmined lands and the new possibility of expanding the role of Giant King Grass for the purpose of phytoremediation and linking that process to carbon neutral bioenergy production. The African Continent represents a large and important market for VIASPACE. We are now growing Giant King Grass and are actively engaged in Africa, Myanmar, the Caribbean, Hawaii, Central America, the United States and elsewhere. We have many exciting projects in various stages of development and we will continue to announce the details of those deals according to our clients’ timelines and schedules. Our business is beginning to build upon itself as new clients are regularly contacting us with new projects to evaluate and consider. We are working hard to build a robust and recurring revenue stream to make this company a global leader in the green energy business sector.”

Kips Bay Medical, Inc. (KIPS) is “One to Watch”
Founded in 2007, Kips Bay Medical is a medical device company focused on providing therapeutic vascular technologies that help cardiac surgeons better treat cardiovascular disease (CVD). Causing one out of every six deaths in the U.S., CVD effects an estimated 82 million Americans. In the 27 member states of the EU, the disease contributes to over 2 million deaths a year.
eSVS Mesh, the company’s first commercial product, is used in coronary artery bypass grafting surgery. When placed over a saphenous vein graft during CABG surgery, eSVS Mesh can improve the structural characteristics and long-term performance of the saphenous vein graft. This simple, easy-to-use device is designed to optimize patient outcomes without adding significantly to the time of CABG procedures.
In November, Kips Bay Medical received approval from the FDA to begin clinical study of eSVS Mesh technology in the U.S. The objective of this study is to demonstrate eSVS Mesh’s safety and performance. Favorable results are anticipated as the device has already received CE Mark approval and has been successfully implanted in over 400 patients in multiple cardiovascular centers outside of the U.S.
Cardiac surgeons will be eager to start using eSVS Mesh technology in their coronary artery bypass graft (CABG) procedures in order to avoid common problems associated with artery grafts and even outright failure of the corrective surgery. The potential end points for procedure success, patient quality of life, and ensuring long-term viability in the form of external support will be strong commercial drivers for ongoing sales.

Vasomedical, Inc. (VASO), International EECP Therapist Association Prepare to Kick-off EECP Therapy Week with Activities to Combat Cardiovascular Disease
Cardiovascular disease is taking America by storm; and physicians, scientists, and medical technology companies such as Vasomedical are fighting back by educating the public on disease prevention and clinically proven alternatives to current invasive methods of treatment.
Vasomedical and the The International EECP Therapists Association (IETA) today jointly announced the second annual EECP Therapy Week, during which EECP centers in the U.S. will host special events to promote awareness of EECP therapy and recognize the American Heart Association’s Heart Month.
To activities center on the education of cardiovascular disease and EECP Therapy, an FDA cleared, non-invasive therapy for treating patients with several heart conditions. Enhanced external counterpulsation (EECP) is a proprietary non-invasive cardiology treatment created and marketed by Vasomedical.
“EECP Therapy is a complementary, non-invasive form of treatment for patients who, despite maximum medication, still suffer from angina symptoms that interfere with their daily lives,” Louanne Tempich, president of International EECP Therapists Association stated in the press release. “One of the major barriers to EECP treatments being widely accepted is a lack of awareness about this therapy – people do not understand that this is an option with very real, beneficial results. Our goal with EECP Therapy Week is to increase public awareness of this treatment as a safe, non-invasive option that will help improve patients’ lives.”
Among EECP Therapy Week events is the Red Balloon Release, where EECP staff and patients release balloons to the sky with personal messages as a symbolic gesture of the positive impact EECP Therapy has had on their health and the quality of their lives.
“The first annual EECP Therapy Week was a great success,” said Larry Liebman, vice president of Sales & Marketing for Vasomedical. “EECP facilities around the United States showed their support by hosting events and participating in the Red Balloon Release to help generate awareness about this treatment. Since the first annual EECP Therapy Week last year, we have seen an increase in interest and numerous inquiries from physicians and patients about the technology. To date, EECP Therapy has provided a great experience for patients who undergo treatment and scientific studies have demonstrated very positive results for these individuals.”
The second annual EECP Therapy Week will be recognized this year from February 18 – 22, 2013. The Red Balloon Release is scheduled on February 19 and will take place concurrently around the nation at 1 p.m. EST.

NYTEX Energy Holdings, Inc. (NYTE) Taps Oil and Gas Logistics Top Gun Brian Gross for VP of Operations Ahead of Marble Falls Development
NYTEX Energy Holdings, which is engaged in early-stage oil and gas E&P via its NYTEX Petroleum segment and energy market staffing via the KS Energy Search Group, reported a key hiring today to support development of the company’s roughly 7.6k leasehold acre portfolio. Brian Gross, the new VP of operations, adds nearly two decades of upstream and midstream oil and gas industry experience.
NYTE will see immediate impact of such a hiring on their continued exploration and production activities at the Marble Falls play, where the recent drilling/completion of six wells (12% average WI) underscores the company’s maintained acquisition/development strategy. There are a host of companies with production currently in the play despite the high salt water content and need for disposal wells, with Swan Production Company’s 127-well, 3.5k plus BOE/day footprint being a prime example of how to work this limestone.
President and CEO of NYTE, Michael Galvis, welcomed Brian to the firm and made a special note of his exemplary track record in the industry, having cut his teeth out of Texas Tech University (BS in Petroleum Engineering) at major sector player Chesapeake Energy, where he spent four years in the trenches doing the difficult work of the field production engineer and later staff production engineer roles. Gross will be instrumental in providing leadership as drilling proceeds at Marble Falls and elsewhere on the company’s properties, with day-to-day operations of the company’s overall oil and gas well infrastructure being his overarching concern.
Gross comes into the VP of Operations job out of a considerable run over at Rio Vista Operating, where he handled oversight on all the drilling, completion, and production activities as President and Operations Manager, spearheading a range of coal bed methane, as well as conventional targets in Oklahoma. In addition Gross also managed the implementation and operation of two entire gas pipeline systems for Rio, something he has had a great deal of experience with elsewhere in the 19 plus years he has spent handling this sort of work.
Gross designed well over 400 fracking implementations in the Barnett Shale for Chief Oil and Gas as their Completion and Production Engineer, overseeing the producing Johnson and Hill County properties, as well as putting in multiple artificial lifts and other gas pipeline infrastructure. This work even led to his co-authoring a Society of Petroleum Engineers paper (SPE 102063) on techniques for fracking in the Barnett Shale.
Furthermore, Gross pulled two years over at another sector heavyweight, Westside Energy, where he handled all the drilling, completion, and production over watch as their Operations Manager on some 70k acres in the Barnett. He was key to developing much more than production infrastructure as well, helping to negotiate vital farm out, JV, land leasing, and oil/gas marketing opportunities. Gross even assisted in securing vital financing inputs, from bank loans and bridge financing, to equity sales and negotiation of the purchasing price on producing oil/gas properties.
Shareholders will be looking for results and Mr. Gross is already chomping at the bit to take NYTE’s portfolio to the next level production-wise. Investors should keep an ear to the ground for subsequent developments from NYTE, especially out of their Marble Falls operation.

Viscount Systems, Inc. (VSYS) Awarded Project to Secure Schools in North Dakota
Viscount Systems, a leading-edge supplier of security systems and software, today announced that its Freedom access control system will be securing a K-12 school district in North Dakota. The company’s system will include its IT-based access control solution as well as the new mobile alarm and building lockdown software.
“School security is not simply about securing access to areas but also about real time response to critical events,” stated Stephen Pineau, President and CEO of Viscount. “Our new Freedom Mobile software platform provides school administrators the ability to change building security levels and lock down entire schools by using a mobile device. Freedom Mobile can also provide real time notification of alarm messages as they transpire. Finally, the system can be used to create muster reports providing real-time location of staff and students within a school, or those who may be unaccounted for in the event of a building crisis or evacuation.”
Designing security systems since 1969, Viscount has developed strategic working relationships with leading equipment vendors to support its continued profitability and growth. The company’s products have been installed in approximately 35,000 sites in over 30 countries, including prisons, schools, hospitals, government facilities, and corporate offices.

United Western Bancorp, Inc. (UWBKQ) Video Chart for Friday, January 25, 2013
UWBKQ is a bankruptcy play, so it carries a high degree of risk, but technically speaking it is making higher lows and putting together a nice climb towards resistance at 23 cents. A break of that level opens the chart until the next resistance at 30 cents.
