MusclePharm Corp. (MSLP) Combines Medical Science with Professional Field Testing

In the fast growing world of nutritional supplements, MusclePharm is distinctive in its approach to the athletic and health conscious marketplace. Calling itself the healthy lifestyle company that truly lives and breathes the healthy lifestyle, MusclePharm recruited the industry’s top doctors and nutritionists, and then provided them with a state-of-the-art athletic and testing facility featuring the best equipment available:

• Woodway Treadmills
• Keiser Machines
• Hyperbaric Machines
• Hydroworx Pool
• Omega Wave Machines
• Stem and Ultra Sound Units
• Dexa

It’s the MusclePharm Sports Science Center Research Institute in Colorado, where their team of doctors and scientists utilize an advanced 6-stage research protocol, together with extensive field testing by professional athletes from the National Football League, Mixed Martial Arts, and Major League Baseball, to formulate a full line of nutritional supplements that are 100% free of banned substances. Their clinic can perform bone scans, blood work, ultrasounds, muscle and fat evaluations, kidney and liver tests, cortisol tests, reaction-time testing, and much more. This intensive combination of science and professional field testing is unique, and gives MusclePharm an important edge. Its products are now sold around the world, including thousands of retail outlets and online stores.

All this may seem like an unnecessarily big investment, but the sports nutrition and high energy supplements market is expected by some to top $100 billion in the near future, and any chunk of that is considered worth the effort. MusclePharm is gearing itself to become the nutritional supplement line of choice for serious athletes.

Duma Energy Corp. (DUMA) Uses Current Production to Support Exploration for Future Development

When Duma management points to the rapid increase in oil production from their wells in Galveston and Trinity Bay, just offshore form Houston, indicating that production has jumped from less than 100 BOEPD (barrels of oil equivalent per day) to over 500 BOEPD, and then states confidently that production should grow to over 1000 BOEPD by the end of the year, and 2500 BOEPD by the end of 2013, it’s not an example of executive wishful thinking. The numbers are simply based upon what has been tapped and what has been untapped.

The current 500 BOEPD is being produced by only a fraction of Duma’s available wells in the two bays. Specifically, out of the 130 wells the company has in Galveston Bay and Trinity Bay, only 27, roughly 20%, of the wells are currently active. As the other nearby wells come online, production will increase. At the same time, operational margins are expected to improve, directing more money to the bottom line.

More than beefing up Duma’s financial picture, this domestic productivity, including additional projects in Texas and other parts of the U.S., serves to finance the company’s exploration projects overseas. In particular, it currently supports Duma’s working interest in a 5.3 million acre petroleum concession in Namibia, Africa. Namibia is a small country of just over 2 million people, with a representative government that is considered one of the most stable in Africa. Duma obtained its interests through the acquisition of Namibia Exploration, now a wholly owned subsidiary.

The concession is located in the Owambo Basin in northern Namibia. The basin was formed primarily during the Proterozoic Era, and appears to contain the major elements required to produce a major petroleum system: source rock, reservoir rock, reservoir trap, and reservoir seal. Having a dependable source of income from domestic production gives Duma the opportunity to explore and develop what could become major finds.

ZBB Energy Corp. (ZBB) Receives ETL Certification Equal to UL Standard 1741 for 125 kW Grid-Tie Inverter Module

ZBB Energy announced today that Edison Testing Laboratories (ETL), a Nationally Recognized Testing Laboratory (NRTL), has certified that its 125 kW Grid-Tie Inverter Module complies with ETL’s safety and quality standards, standards that are modeled to match UL standard 1741. ZBB’s 125 kW Grid-Tie Inverter Module 125 kW is part of ZBB’s EnerSection™ power and energy control center. The 125 kW grid-tie inverter is a device that allows stored direct current (DC) energy to be converted to alternating current (AC) energy and put back on a power grid.

NRTL status tells all customers that the services performed by these companies, to list or to label products, is reliable and legally binding throughout the United States. ETL, originally known as Edison Testing Laboratories, is an old, respected, nationwide testing group with credibility equal to UL. Therefore, an ETL listing label is legally binding nationwide and instills equal consumer confidence in the manufacturer that they have cared enough to submit their products to the rigorous safety compliance process and achieved the right to apply an NRTL label that certifies compliance assurance.

The ETL testing of the 125 kW grid-tie inverter for compliance with the UL 1741 standard was performed by Intertek Testing Services. The UL 1741 standard incorporates Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE) 1547 requirements for the interconnection of distributed generation (DG) resources. This certification signifies that ZBB’s 125 kW inverter module meets, or exceeds, all of the product safety standards for connection to a utility power grid anywhere in the United States or other countries where UL standards are accepted. Earlier this year, ZBB’s 25kW inverter modules received similar ETL certification.

Asked to comment on receipt of the ETL certification, Eric C. Apfelback, President and CEO of ZBB Energy, said, “We recently announced and field labeled two ETL 125 kW inverters in Chicago which are currently in service for the Illinois Institute of Technology’s micro grid project. This final certification is a significant milestone because it allows us to manufacture, test and certify that all 125 kW units shipped from our facility are ETL listed to UL 1741. This certification allows us to ship our 125 kW inverters to projects in China, Hawaii and North America.”

The ZBB EnerSection is a market leading product that converts AC power to DC power. It is a modular, controllable, bi-directional, hybrid power conversion platform that intelligently integrates, manages, and optimizes multiple renewable and/or conventional power generation sources simultaneously while incorporating energy storage. Its multiple configuration design integrates many AC and DC power generation sources discreetly with one or more types of energy storage units with any combination of utility grid-tie inverters, stand-alone inverters for off-grid AC power, and/or DC outputs to provide DC power.

Currently, customers have a need for grid-tie inverters rated at 25 kW and 125 kW, so ZBB will focus its efforts on products rated to those levels. ZBB will schedule a later date for introduction of the 60 kW inverter when a market need is firmly established.

ZBB Corp. is a leading global designer of intelligent and renewable energy systems. The company designs, develops, and manufactures distributed energy storage solutions based upon the proprietary zinc bromide rechargeable electrical energy storage technology in the United States and internationally. ZBB markets its power systems under the ZESS POWR name. The company provides advanced electrical power management platforms for distributed renewable energy, energy efficiency, power quality, and grid modernization. It also offers a portfolio of intelligent power management platforms that integrate various renewable and conventional onsite generation sources with rechargeable zinc bromide flow batteries and other storage technology. In addition, the company provides advanced systems to connect wind and solar equipment to the grid and systems, which could form various levels of micro-grids.
