Green Energy Live Inc. is a clean energy company developing sustainable biomass-to-energy conversion technology for the nation’s livestock industry. The company today reported its intentions to acquire Peck Electric, Vermont’s leading electrical contracting services provider. Peck Electric reportedly has a solid telecommunications division, established long-term relationships with existing customers, and a proven ability to make contacts with potential new customers.

Karen Clark, president and CEO of Green Energy said Peck Electric’s reputation and business goals make it an attractive target.

“Peck Electric is an ideal fit for Green Energy Live. Peck is a strong, healthy business with outstanding technical, sales and management teams, strong revenue and established customers. Peck has built an excellent reputation providing telecommunications systems for clients and its data division is a key source of customer contacts. Green Energy Live is excited to pursue clean energy initiatives leveraging their technology expertise for the benefit of both companies as well as our shareholders,” Clark stated in the press release.

Operating since 1972, Peck Electric offers electrical contracting services, installs solar energy systems, develops clean energy products and deploys telecommunications systems. The company’s data and telecommunications division have more than 20 years of experience. Peck Electric also has experience with a diverse array of industries including manufacturing, clean areas, hospitals, schools, and office work environments.

According to an unaudited statement of revenue and expenses for 2009, Peck Electric indicates that it generated $6 million in gross revenues and net income of $128,908. Revenues from its telecommunications division represented approximately $1.6 million; historically, costs of sales have represented between 78% and 81% of Peck Electric’s overall gross revenues.

Though Green Energy does not have a complete set of financial statements for Peck Electric, it hopes to obtain the information during its due diligence. The parties anticipate signing a definitive agreement and to close the purchase transaction by April 25, 2010.

Today, MagShoe™ shoe-scanning device developer IDO Security Ltd. announced that distributors in Belgium, the Netherlands, and the U.K. have ordered its new, state-of-the-art MagShoe™ 3G/4 model.

Commenting on the orders, Dani Werber, IDO’s International Marketing Manager, remarked, “The new 3G/4 model of the MagShoe™, recently showcased at the 2010 SICUR International Security Safety Exhibition in Madrid, Spain, conforms to all detection requirements and provisions of the EU regarding Airport and Aviation Security. Together with the increased height detection, the new MagShoe™ has garnered a great deal of interest from European authorities.”

Most screening technologies stop just above the ankles when scanning for concealed weapons, but MagShoe™ surpasses the competition by addressing this key vulnerability. The portable, user-friendly MagShoe™ device extends metal detection to include the lower extremities. It now covers everything from eighteen inches to the bottoms of the feet without requiring passengers to remove their shoes, thanks to its patented “step-on” design.

“We are extremely pleased with the reception our 3G/4 model has received in the European security market,” said Henry Shabat, Manager of IDO Security Ltd. “Based on the initial response from our client and distributor base, we fully expect to have further announcements regarding additional clients in the very near future.”

San West Inc., a leading full-spectrum, off-road buggy producer whose distribution footprint spans across a retail, online, and growing dealer network, reported today that sales on motorized scooters via partner website CountryImports.com shot up 23% over 09 figures for the first two months of this year.

The Company’s leadership projects a huge spike in activity as the Spring/Summer Off-road Vehicle (ORV) season rapidly approaches, and data from CountryImports.com also shows that the sale price for scooters in the aforementioned period also increased by 24.5%, showing marked consumer tendency to select higher-end units with additional features.

President of CountyImports.com, Jesse Gonzalez, commented on the warming weather and thawing capital, inferring that greater economic fluidity in the consumer base was driving ORV sales, most notably scooters, which outperformed other segments on per-unit price and quantity of features sold with the unit.

Gonzalez said the Company’s outlook was optimistic with the approach of the traditionally busy Spring/Summer season and sales data that indicates “consumers have finally recovered from the recent economic downturn and are ready to enjoy hobbies and outdoor activities”.

With expectations to log the Company’s largest increase of motorized scooters sales ever sometime in the next 30 days, a bevy of positive feedback on the new product releases slated to debut in a few weeks, and an overhauled web presence that offers users a more intuitive experience, SNWT is experiencing what Mr. Gonzalez referred to as a “perfect storm of positive trends”.

President and CEO of SNWT, Frank Drechsler, cited “increased consumer spending on ORVs and related goods” as the primary force driving record scooter sales levels, and boldly asserted plans to continue to leverage their strong foothold as the “No. 2 online ORV dealer” in order to seize more of the market’s business for itself and for the Company’s shareholders.

President and CEO of PINK, R. Cromwell Coulson, noted the transparency and efficiency of the OTCQX as primary motivating factors in the decision to upgrade, and proudly welcomed this opportunity to show the other “distinguished OTCQX companies trading in this top tier of the OTC market” that PINK holds itself to the same “investor-focused standards”.

Real-time PINK Level 2 quotes are available via the OTCQX.com website and it should be noted that the Company uses the Alternative Reporting Standard, a Disclosure standard engineered to bring greater fidelity to non-SEC filing, smaller publicly-traded companies.

FuelCell Energy Inc. is a leading manufacturer of high efficiency, ultra-clean power plants using renewable and other fuels for commercial, industrial, government and utility customers. The company reported today that its hybrid power plant attained an average electrical efficiency of 62.5 percent, equipment up-time of 93 percent and reduced greenhouse gas emissions of up to 45 percent.

The power plant, located in Toronto, generates ultra-clean electricity while harvesting energy normally lost during natural gas pipeline distribution operations. The power plant is a joint development effort between FuelCell Energy and the Canadian gas pipeline company, Enbridge. It produces 2.2 megawatts of electricity, enough to power approximately 1,700 homes. Funding for the project included $2.3 million from Natural Resources Canada and $500,000 from the Ontario Ministry of Research and Innovation. Additional funding came from NYSEARCH, the research arm of the Northeast Gas Association.

In its first full year of operation, the Direct FuelCell-Energy Recovery Generation power plant achieved results underscoring its success over a range of scenarios. The two companies are advancing the necessary commitments for other power plants in Connecticut totaling 18 megawatts. Gas utilities in other US states are also evaluating the technology. International interest stems from the current project’s evaluation by the Asia Pacific Partnership, a clean energy cooperative involving Australia, Canada, China, India, Japan, South Korea and the United States.

Both companies were incredibly pleased with the results from the power plant. Chuck Szmulo, Enbridge vice-president of Alternative and Emerging Technologies, spoke of the results “That tells that is a commercially robust technology.” The CEO and chairman of FuelCell Energy, R. Daniel Brdar, said, “Enbridge’s validation of the system is a significant milestone, especially since the market potential is worldwide. It gives gas utilities a way of improving pipeline efficiency, reducing emissions and delivering clean energy to the world’s power grid as a byproduct of their daily operations.”

Specialty pharmaceutical company BioSante Pharmaceuticals Inc. today announced positive results for their leukemia vaccine. The results of a human clinical study show that the company’s GVAX leukemia vaccine may be able to reduce or eliminate the last remaining cancer cells in some chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) patients taking the drug Gleevec. All patients enrolled in the trial used Gleevec for at least one year and still had cancer cells present. In addition, the vaccine produced relatively few side effects.

The research was funded by the National Institute of Health. The study was conducted by researchers at the John Hopkins Kimmel Cancer Center in Baltimore, Maryland. The researchers used a vaccine made from CML cells irradiated to halt their cancerous potential and genetically altered to produce an immune system stimulator called GM-CSF. The treated cells also carry molecules called antigens, specific to CML cells, which prime the immune system to recognize and kill circulating CML cells.

The research study was led by Hyam Levitsky MD, professor of oncology, medicine and urology at the Cancer Center. Dr. Levitsky commented on the research, “We want to get rid of every last cancer cell in the body, and using cancer vaccines may be a good way to mop up residual disease. More research to confirm and expand the results is needed.”

BioSante Pharmaceuticals owns the commercial rights to all GVAX vaccines as a result of its acquisition of Cell Genesys in 2009. The company stated that the work being done by John Hopkins with their vaccine’s effect on leukemia is one of many different forms currently being investigated including pancreatic cancer, breast cancer and multiple myeloma.

One of the harder hit sectors during the current economic situation has been shipping. Ocean or land shipping companies found costs rising and volumes decreasing. Fortunately, the sector is one of those that will always be needed in a global trading environment. Finding a well positioned beaten down company that has been staying on top of its finances is a sure way to come out a winner when trans-shipment resumes in full force.

B&H Ocean Carriers Ltd., a bulk storage ocean transport company, works to transport ocean going bulk and liquid products across long ocean distances. Its primary products include: coal, refined petroleum products, and liquid commodity products such as vegetable oils and malaises. From a quick assessment it does, however, appear that the company’s main business is more oriented toward dry goods such as sugar, coal, grain, bauxite and other bulk transport commodities. Currently the company owns 12 vessels of varying configurations.

As the world economy slowly works its way out of current conditions, one can easily understand how an ocean going shipping company needs to be fast on its feet to keep itself moving forward. B&H Ocean is no different. It does however, have one advantage. In the shipping world a company must carry the costs until delivery is made. Obviously this is difficult when exports and imports are exceptionally lower and fuel is rising. B&H, however, has a slightly smaller fleet and selection of ships. This will let them charge a bit less and gain market position as the economy starts to roll. Additionally, China’s appetite for coal and other commodities from Australia is perfectly suited for B&H’s shipping structure.

Fund.com, Inc. announced this morning that it has partnered with Transparensee Systems, Inc., New York City, to develop a next generation search engine for the Fund.com website to help investors find their best choices among the many thousands of mutual funds and ETFs (Exchange Traded Funds) available today. The anticipated launch of the new search engine is this summer.

Fund.com CEO Gregory Webster stated, “Unlike anything available today to financial investors, we believe that the new search engine will give investors more control and more choices over every search of mutual funds and ETFs. In an easy-to-use format, investors will be able to search the database for mutual funds and ETFs in real time to find specific funds that meet their criteria.”

Not only will investors find exact matches, which are typically supplied in current search engines, they will also be able to get near-perfect matches that they might not otherwise learn about. Webster explained, “If the investor is looking for fund managers with at least ten years experience, our new search engine would also present funds with investment managers with only nine and a half years of experience who matched all the other desired criteria.”

Webster added, “Finally, investors will no longer be stopped cold with ‘no’ or few matches responses. We believe that Fund.com’s new fund search engine will make it easier for investors to find the right fund for them. We are excited about adding this sophisticated tool, which uses next generation software, to the fund.com website, thereby making it the most advanced in the industry.”

Transparensee has developed search engines using this advanced technology for four years. According to CEO Steven Lavine, the technology has proven itself on such sites as ForRent.com, which lists more than 50,000 apartments nationwide, and the restaurant search capability of Newsday’s ExploreLI.com.

Lavine commented, “Using this tool, investors can make much more sophisticated searches, with more criteria and still find a good match.”

SANUWAVE Health Inc. is an emerging medical technology company channeling its efforts to develop and commercialize non-invasive, biological response activating devices in the regenerative medicine area. The Journal of Orthopedic Trauma published an article titled Extracorporeal Shock Wave Therapy for Nonunion of the Tibia in its March 2010 issue highlighting a study involving SANUWAVE’s Ossatron device.

Authors of the article suggest that non-invasive Extracorporeal Shock Wave Technology (ESWT), when applied with SANUWAVE’s Ossatron device and one treatment session of 4,000 pulses followed by fracture immobilization, results in an 80 percent healing rate for nonunion bone fractures (incomplete fracture healing). The results were asses both clinically and by radiographic means.

The article details the six-year study of 172 patients undergoing treatment for tibia nonunion, utilizing SANUWAVE’s Ossatron® device. Most of the patients were resistant or unresponsive to previous surgical treatments. The average healing time from their operations was about 14 months; the average healing time after ESWT was a significant decrease at 4.8 months.

SANUWAVE president and CEO Christopher M. Cashman acknowledged the study’s results and said the company is anticipating the impending expansion of its technology.

“This comprehensive study, which reports an 80% healing rate of nonunions of the tibia, supports the utilization of PACE™ technology in the orthopedic space beyond the well-established treatment of chronic tendinopathies. We are looking forward to our expected second-quarter launch of orthoPACE™ in Europe, where our growing base of distribution partners can continue to expand the use of PACE™ technology. The orthoPACE™ can be used across multiple care settings which we expect will increase the number of patients who are treated in a convenient, non-invasive and cost-effective way,” Cashman stated.

Despite the positive studies of Ossatron, the company is advancing its technology. SANUWAVE’s orthoPACE is capable of treating in an equivalent energy range utilized in this study, and is scheduled for launch in the second quarter of 2010. The orthoPAC will replace the Ossatron, the 800 lb. legacy device that was used in this study in a wide range of orthopedic, sports medicine and trauma indications including acute and nonunion fracture treatment.

“In addition to the important fracture healing results of this tibia study, SANUWAVE anticipates releasing the results of its U.S. phase IIb Investigational Device Exemption (IDE) study focused on extremity small bone nonunion or delayed healing fracture in the second quarter of this year. SANUWAVE’s strategy for orthoPACE in the U.S. is to focus our clinical efforts and FDA submissions on the $4.2 billion orthopedic repair market,” Cashman concluded.

Headquartered in Charleston, South Carolina, Revolutions Medical Corp. develops and distributes new products and tools to the medical industry. Trading on the OTCBB, they operate in the safety-engineered medical devices (SEMDs) arena. The company engages in development and distribution either through internal projects or via acquisitions.

Revolutions Medical Corporation’s product portfolio includes the RevVac safety syringe, safety blood drawing device, and safety IV catheter. The Company also provides RevColor, RevDisplay and Rev3D. These software solutions and proprietary tools are compatible with standard MRIs and standard PACS. The software suite’s functionality includes sorting of images, color, 3D and automatic segmentation of images.

The RevVac Safety Syringe uses patented technology to draw the needle into the syringe chamber after use, for safety. This safety syringe may result in a major decrease in accidental needle stick injuries. The RevVac Safety Syringe also has an additional safety feature. It will not allow the reuse of the syringe. This may decrease the spread of blood borne diseases. This safety syringe also allows for one-handed use. This is important for health care practitioners or medical personnel as there are no clamps, sheaths, or other complex safety features that require use of both hands.

Since 2008, Revolutions Medical Corporation has achieved various company goals. Highlights include acquiring 100 percent of Clear Image Acquisition Corporation, the developer of their MRI software technology. They also received FDA 510K clearance for their RevVac safety syringe. They began cultivating relationships with more than 50 distributors globally. They now will initiate the process of signing distribution agreements with those that fit their criteria to distribute their products.

In addition, the Company launched the initial steps of the RevVac manufacturing process for the 3ml safety syringe. They also formed a distribution partnership with Libra International in South America. This is the first of many targeted worldwide syringe markets for Revolutions Medical Corporation.

For 2010, Revolutions Medical has several initiatives. They will continue to expand their family of safety syringes, blood drawing devices and other products in aesthetics, and other areas. The company will work to sign up distributors nationally and worldwide and license additional syringe manufacturers.

They will also integrate MRI tools into a delivery platform, as well as receive validation of MRI tools with major teaching hospitals and experts in the various applicable fields of medicine. Revolutions Medical will also confirm additional MRI diagnostic applications such as Alzheimer’s, concussion, cardiac disease and breast disease.

New World Gold Corp. is a company focused on the exploration and development of gold prospects. The company looks to take advantage of the continued high price for gold. Gold has outperformed stocks over the past decade, yet it is an asset that is in very few investors’ portfolios. Gold looks to have a shiny future too as emerging countries from China to India continue to add gold to their sovereign holdings.

The company owns gold reserves both domestically in the United States and internationally. New World Gold has decided to focus on its domestic reserves as a priority, as they can be brought into production in 2010. The company has two current gold projects in the United States:

The company’s first project is located in Montana. New World Gold has a 75% interest in the project, which has proven developed gold reserves and sapphire reserves that are ready to go into production. The project has been issued a mining permit and production is scheduled to begin almost immediately. Based on the exploration and development work, analytical work and sampling programs throughout the lease, the company estimates that the reserves on the project are as follows: Proven Reserves of 175,000 ounces of gold and Proven Developed Reserves of 105,000 ounces of gold.

The company’s second project is located in Colorado. New World Gold has a 33% interest in the project with the opportunity to increase the interest to 50%. The project has previously been in production and already has established facilities for production. It is expected that this project will be in full production by September 2010. Based on exploration and development work along with historical work, the company estimates that the reserves on the project are as follows: Proven Reserves of 200,000 ounces of gold and Proven Developed Reserves of 190,000 ounces of gold.

In addition, New World Gold has two international gold projects. Both projects have significant proven and probable reserves based on substantial drilling and development work. The company has decided to develop these gold reserves at a future date when the infrastructure in the areas involved catch up with the development of the projects.

EVCARCO, the innovative automotive retail group with an emphasis on creating a US-wide dealership network for eco-friendly vehicles, announced the grand opening of its Moscow headquarters today.

This site will serve as EVCA HQ for Europe. The Russian Capital and European markets have been identified by extensive research to be an investor/customer-rich environment for electric and alternative fuel vehicle infrastructure, and EVCA corporate executives recently flew to Moscow to open the office in historic Lublinka Plaza near the heart of this largest of all European cities.

CEO of EVCA Dale Long noted the “powerhouse” status of Moscow as a financier in the emerging market/energy sectors, and how this made the opening of a “Hub in Moscow” a logical and shrewd move for the Company.

An 8.5% FQ 08 GDP, and a decade of booming economic growth, made Russia the 3rd biggest global IPO market last year, according to Reuters.

COO of EVCA Scott O’Neal was quick to point out the “keen interest” of Russian and European investment capital for energy sector and alternative energy solutions, and proudly stated that, as the Company’s original investor, he was honored to represent EVCA at the upcoming International Investor Forum in Moscow, which will be host to G8 countries’ top banking and finance institutions.

This move is in accordance with the projected growth model approved by EVCA board members, but it is occurring on an accelerated timeline after the hugely successful executive trip to Russia, which evinces the vast potential for the Company.

Texas-based EVCA has also been invited to the March 23 Private Equity and Venture Capital Forum in Moscow, where it will have an opportunity to further the Company’s agenda of building upon past successes to increase return on investment for shareholders by developing the market for some of the most advanced clean vehicle technologies in existence.

CoroWare, Inc. subsidiary, CoroWare Technologies, introduced a new compact and inexpensive laser range finder today, available as a standalone unit or as a component option on the Company’s Corobot- and Explorer-brand robotics systems.

Capable of scanning at 10Hz out to 18 feet, this module significantly enhances the robots’ effective situational awareness capabilities and, if purchased as a robot option, comes preloaded with drivers and ready to go.

Dan Kara, the President of Robotics Trends – an influential publisher and organizer in the robotics community – is known for his expert analysis throughout the industry, and commented on advances in miniaturization and the declining costs of laser range finders, noting how this was making the technology more and more appropriate for smaller robotics systems.

Kara pointed out that the addition of the new range finder on CoroWare’s CoroBot and Explorer platforms greatly increases both the number and range of applications for which the bots are suited.

Immensely improving the remote presence, inspection, research, individual, and swarm behavioral capabilities of the CoroBot and Explorer platforms, this new range finder enables Simultaneous Localization and Mapping (SLAM; a kind of continuous, real-time environment mapping system), and Monte Carlo localization (MCL; a redundant positional awareness system).

This range finder is the newest in a string of growth initiatives undertaken by CoroWare’s Robotics and Automation group, and the Company also offers a differential-drive option for the robot base component, as well as better sensors and motors.

CEO of CoroWare Lloyd Spencer noted the importance of feedback from the customer base and constant R&D to expand the range of products being offered, pointing out how the Robotics and Automation group obtained 11% increased sales in 09 due in large part to “keeping close watch on customer demand”.

The Redmond, WA-based CoroWare has an impressive track record in mobile robotics and tremendous telepresence as a solutions integrator. Whether a client needs a custom robotics system for specs they already have, or needs help developing specs for a unique solution, CoroWare engineers have the range of expertise to assemble or custom-build the component architecture of the system to meet the specific needs of the project.

With expertise in a variety of embedded systems, communication protocols and controllers, as well as physical simulation capability using the most sophisticated software suites available, CoroWare has the tools and the talent combined with management expertise that can keep the project workflow laser-focused until completion.

Having been in the oil and gas business for so long, many companies have the luxury of planning for cycles of production. As this well drains down another is just about ready to come on line. Finding these types of companies, as commodity natural gas and oil move higher, will likely lead to profit.

Pyramid Oil Co., an oil and gas exploration and extraction company, works to develop and market oil and natural gas products primarily in California, Texas, Wyoming and New York. The company was founded in 1909 and sells its products to pipeline companies, refineries and crude oil purchasers.

As one might suspect, general revenues were down at the end of 2009 as oil and natural gas prices lowered. This trend, however has appeared to reverse with oil hovering around $80. According to the company, it can maintain reserves while finding $220,000 in operational savings. Overall this has left the company in fine position for future expansion. One particular drag on earnings was not planned for in 2008 as new water and air regulations entered enforcement. Unfortunately there is little way around these issues although the company has brought in experts to mitigate them.

What the company does have working for it is a solid product reserve, a solid structure of existing leases and a variety of oil and natural gas products, primarily in Texas, which are close to completion and production. A company does not stay in the oil and gas game for over 100 years and not have an idea of how to make the process work.

WaferGen Biosystems Inc., a leading developer of advanced genetic analysis systems, announced today eight new customers participating in the WaferGen early-access program, which provides customers early versions of the company’s state-of-the-art SmartChip gene analysis platform prior to general availability. The SmartChip system offers researchers high-throughput gene interrogation and validation, allowing faster and more cost effective drug development. WaferGen sees SmartChip as the platform of choice for biomarker discovery and validation.

The new early-access customers include Stanford University, University of California at San Francisco, University of Pittsburgh, University of Southern California, and the University of Texas Southwestern, along with two Japanese organizations, and an undisclosed U.S. biotech company. Areas of research include cancer, lung disease, and stem cell research.

WaferGen also announced that it has shipped the first SmartChip Real-Time PCR System to an international customer in Japan following the receipt of CE Marking certification (official verification that a medical device has met specified health, safety, and environmental requirements, allowing it access to the EU market and Japan).

WaferGen’s commercialization strategy is to generate revenue through both the early-access program and the recently launched WaferGen SmartChip Service. The new service allows customers to receive gene-expression profiling services by WaferGen scientists at the company’s new headquarters in Fremont, CA.

WaferGen CEO, president, and chairman, Alnoor Shivji, said of the development, “These notable early users of our SmartChip platform are clear indication of its value to vastly improve gene expression analysis and genotyping in order to provide a better understanding of disease at the molecular level and advance the drug development process. SmartChip offers researchers the high-throughput capability of interrogating thousands of genes and validating hundreds of samples simultaneously in a single run using Real-Time PCR. This improved molecular analysis could thereby provide the potential for a patient to be diagnosed and even selected for clinical trials according to genetic information. Therapies could be developed to work on specific molecular targets. This could shorten the drug development process, help reduce the costs of drug development, and enable more successful end-products.”
