Mountain Lake Resources, www.mountain-lake.com – the diversified junior exploration firm focused squarely on developing a portfolio of profitable resources, today reported initial results of a barge drilling operation at the Leprechaun Gold Deposit.

This initiative has successfully defined a huge area of excellent surface mineralization by fleshing out the historical data with new exploration on the pond via a barge, making the Leprechaun the first defined gold resource in Central Newfoundland’s highly prospective Valentine Lake Property.

With an inferred 1.315M tonnes at 10.50 g/t Au (NI 43-101 compliant, 5 g/t Au minimum cut-off, and a 3 m minimum width), and with an estimated total of 443k oz of gold, the Leprechaun Deposit, open at depth and along strike, promises to be a very good producer for the Company.

Among the salient data reported from this recent analysis:

• Main zone-drilled hole VL-10-211 posted 2.38 g/t AU over a true width of 38 m
• Identification of multiple near-surface mineralization features should make open pit operations very lucrative
• Summer program consisted of 56 holes for a total of 5.8k m or 9.8k m year-to-date
• A new resource estimate, slated for Q4 on the Leprechaun, should provide additional insights
• Hole 206 ( on section 9,975 – see website for map) confirmed continuous mineralization from 205 (the 25 m wide intercept at 2.06 g/t in hole 206 is 25 m northeast along strike from the 27.2 m at 3.92 g/t intersected in hole 205)
• Holes 208-212 in the eastern half of the Leprechaun Pond validate geological mineralization model for site

VP of Exploration for MOA, David Good, noted the previously announced (Aug 16) data, which indicates abundant mineralization, and commented on the outstanding clarity the barge drilling data has delivered regarding the overall mineralization picture.

Good pointed out that the barge data fills in a huge gap right over the middle of the deposit, and seemed excited at how promising the continuity and abundance of sub-horizontal vein zones was within the steeply dipping mineralization envelope.

Sample data assayed via lead collection fire assay (with atomic absorption finish for drill hole planning and duplicates for samples over 30 g/t) and upcoming estimate will be determined by metallic screening. The Valentine Lake Project is operated by Marathon PGM Corp. (MAR.CA) under a sub-option JV agreement. Resource estimate for Leprechaun Deposit by Larry Pilgrim, P. Geo., Qualified Person, ( NI 43-101 Valentine Lake Technical Report 2005).

OmniReliant, www.omnireliant.com – a Company that comprises competencies from direct response (DR) and traditional retail (which are delivered to live shopping networks, direct mail and ecommerce through its subsidiaries), announced today that wholly-owned consumer products enterprise, OmniResponse, Inc., opened a new sales office in Bentonville, Arkansas.

VP of Retail Sales for ORHI, and decade-long resident of the Bentonville area, Travis Berger, will head up the retail sales push and illustrate the dynamic of DR by explaining how crucial the timing is between consumer interest and availability of the product.

CEO of ORHI, Robert J. DeCecco, noted that this big push to spearhead sales out of Bentonville, led by the Retail Sales Division, sends a loud and clear message about the Company’s “driving retail sales growth in 2011 and beyond” platform.

Berger noted how important having a retail distribution network that is prepped and ready to receive the product is, especially considering that the largest and most popular retailers aren’t always the ones launching the product. OHRI’s network includes marketing promos, kiosks, pallet displays, end caps and etc.

This understanding of the time-critical correlation between demand and availability is central to the ORHI business philosophy, and Berger made it clear that the Company’s success is driven by coordinating a focused strategy that encompasses the product life cycle.

A clear tactical advantage mastered by ORHI – the adept selection of a suitable retailer/vendor combined with the launch execution strategy and the means to sustain interest – maximizes shareholder returns and operational profitability by dovetailing marketing and sales logistics.

DeCecco took a moment to comment on how well suited Berger was, due to his vast local knowledge and prior work as Category Strategic Advisor for Direct-to-Consumer products and brands for industry titan Wal-Mart, where Berger did consultancy work.

DeCecco pointed to the numerous connections with several large retailers that Berger has painstakingly cultivated as affording an ideal environment for the new sales office, which itself makes a nice structural complement to ORHI’s existing corporate offices, located at the Company’s 34k sq. ft. television/production studio.

Science-based nutraceutical company LifeVantage Corp. today announced the publication of a peer-reviewed study involving Protandim®, the company’s clinically proven therapy for oxidative stress.

Protandim is an indirect antioxidant therapy providing substantial benefits for healthy aging by stimulating the body’s production of its natural antioxidant enzymes.

The study, titled “The Chemopreventive Effects of Protandim: Modulation of p53 Mitochondrial Translocation and Apoptosis during Skin Carcinogenesis,” demonstrates Protandim’s ability to reduce the incidence and number of skin cancers in mice.

The report was published in the scientific journal PLoS ONE, conducted by researchers at Louisiana State University who examined the biochemical mechanisms that underlie Protandim’s efficacy in a two-stage model. The first stage initiation involves DNA mutation, while the second stage, the promotion stage, induces existing tumor cells to proliferate.

According to the report, the study results suggest Protandim’s ability to signal the cell to suppress p53, which decreases levels of Bax, a protein that causes programmed cell death or apoptosis. When combined with increasing levels of super oxide dismutase, this may play an important role in the tumor suppressive activity of Protandim in this mouse model.

In an earlier human trial, Protandim increased antioxidant enzyme production, thereby eliminating the age-dependent increase in the most widely used marker of oxidative stress.

The study was independently funded by the Louisiana State University Health Sciences Center at Shreveport.

Resource Exchange of America Corp. is working to become a leader in the ferrous and nonferrous scrap metal industry. The Florida-based company is pursuing an aggressive acquisition policy to achieve its goal and become a vertically-integrated recycling company.

The company accelerated its acquisition and joint ventures strategy in the past quarter. It announced joint ventures with Paw Materials, a processing and demolition company, and T&M Salvage, a metal cycling company in one of Florida’s largest industrial areas. The company also signed a partnership with HHL, an asset recovery firm.

Perhaps most importantly, Resource Exchange of America signed a joint venture with Sea Lion Ocean Freight, a subsidiary of Thomas Griffin International. An agreement with an ocean freight company of Sea Lion’s stature is very important. It enhances the company’s presence in the Gulf of Mexico and the Caribbean. The partners hope to develop more domestic business and business in lucrative foreign markets in the months to come.

Many recycling firms struggled during the recession but RXAC remained strong; in part due to its access to deep-water ports that opened up lucrative overseas markets. In fact, the company reported a rise in scrap offers from Asian markets during the second half of August. In recent weeks, ferrous scrap offers into Southeast Asia hit $400 a ton and offers into China hit $400 a ton.

The rise in prices from recession lows is attributed to both tightening supplies and restocking by Asian mills ahead of their busy season over the next few months. The CEO of RXAC, Dana Pexas, said, “As the markets continue to recover from the global recession, this is an area in which we expect to see substantial growth. The news also confirms our long-term goal of expansion into Asian markets – a market we surely will give our keenest attention over the next couple of months.”

Destination Maternity Corp. released the company’s sales and operations update for August 2010, and reported a decline in net sales for the month on both a comparable store and total store basis.

Destination Maternity Corporation said that preliminary net sales for August 2010 were $42.9 million, a decline of 2.3% from net sales of $43.8 million reported for August 2009. The company said that on a comparable store basis, net sales fell by 3.2%.

Destination Maternity Corporation attributed the decline in net retail sales primarily to a calendar shift during August 2010 because the company reports its sales on a calendar month basis instead of a weekly schedule. The month of August 2010 contained one extra Tuesday and one less Saturday than August 2009. Destination Maternity Corporation estimates that the calendar shift reduced comparable retail sales by 2.4% during the month.

Destination Maternity Corporation added one net new store to its retail store base as it opened one new location and did not close any. The company has a total of 1,677 total retail locations, composed of 701 stores and 976 leased locations in Department Stores. The majority of these leased locations are located in Sears and Kmart stores.

Corporate Resource Services is a company on the move. Through its three wholly-owned subsidiaries, CRRS has established itself as a national provider of diversified staffing, recruiting and consulting services. Today, CRRS took another step forward with the acquisition of Tri-Overload Staffing Inc.

Tri-Overload Staffing Inc. is in the business of providing temporary and permanent employment staffing services and related support services principally to the insurance industry. Tri-Overload Staffing, which is now known as Overload Services, Inc., had sales of approximately $20 million for the nine-month period ending March 31, 2010, via a major U.S. presence with over 20 offices throughout the country.

CRRS completed this transaction for approximately $6.2 million which was paid through the issuance of approximately 8,590,000 shares of the company’s common stock. The transaction was reviewed and approved by a special independent committee of the Board of Directors.

Leading the way at CRRS is Jay H. Schecter who serves as the company’s CEO. When asked what this transaction will mean to the future of the company, Schecter was quoted as saying, “With this transaction, CRS continues to build scale as well as diversify its offerings. We now have a growing presence in the insurance industry, as well as in the light industrial and clerical industries. With the completion of this acquisition and the addition of Insurance Overload Services to our group, we have added, based on current levels of business, over $100 million of annualized revenues to the company’s operations since April of this year, when we acquired certain assets of GT Systems. This is an important step for the Company and we plan to continue aggressively our growth through additional acquisitions as well as organically.”

Currently, CRRS is trading in the $1.00 range. With this major acquisition and an established market presence, Corporate Resource Services may be a company on the rise.

InoLife Technologies, Inc., a service-based healthcare products development, integration and marketing company, recently announced that it will market its proprietary metabolizing test to physicians and practitioners to identify how a patient’s genetic makeup may affect the body’s response to Plavix (colpidogrel). Plavix, the second-best selling drug in the world, reduces the risk of heart attack, stroke, and cardiovascular death in patients with cardiovascular disease by making platelets less likely to form blood clots.

The Food and Drug Administration recently announced that Plavix must now carry a so-called “black box” warning label after a study revealed that patients with genetic variation were “3.58 times more likely to have a fatal stroke or myocardial infarction.” InoLife Technologies feels that this is an important test for those who take Plavix or who may need to take Plavix in the future. The company is very pleased that by addressing the black box warning, those who can be helped by this medication will be.

“We determined that there are three critical problems that can lead to a level of non-response to Plavix,” said Dr. Frederic J. Vagnini, M.D., FACS, a board-certified cardiovascular surgeon. “First, in anyone an abnormality may be present within a gene abbreviated as CYP2C19 (and other variants) which significantly increases the risk of stroke or death due to clotting failure. Second, there are different variants or mutations between ethnic groups; some studies have indicated that one in three Caucasians and 40 percent of Asian of African-American populations have this abnormality.”

Dr. Vagnini stated, “Among clinicians there have been discussions centering on differing dosing approaches. Perhaps the most important result of InoLife’s DNA test is that each patient will be able to have an individually tailored course of treatment since some require longer periods on it.”

Did you know Gerald McClain, after numerous decades working with geothermal energy master James Bose at Oklahoma State College, has designed an innovative home geothermal heating and cooling system?

Heat pumps operate as a refrigerator in reverse, they normally use electrical power to move heat from one place to another instead of generating heat directly. As a result, they can be two to three times more power efficient than classic electric heating units.

A geothermal heat pump is a central heating and/or cooling system that pumps heat to/or from the ground. It uses the soil as a heat source (in the winter months) or as a heat sink (in the summer months).
The geothermal pump systems are between the most energy efficient solutions for providing HVAC (Heating, Ventilating, and Air Conditioning) and water heating.

The installation costs are higher than standard systems (about $45,000, but reduced by a 30 percent government tax credit), however the difference can be returned in energy cost savings in 3 to 10 years.

The Gerald McClain’s geothermal system is based on:

- Six one inch diameter pipes sunk 300 feet into the soft red clay below his home

- A water antifreeze mix in the pipes that picks up the ground’s constant sixty two degree F. temperature

- Three heat pumps in the attic that use a small electric powered compressor to heat or cool the home

The electricity for the pumps costs about $100 a month, much less than the usual heating and cooling costs in the area. A well maintained heat pump system not only saves energy, but will also blow outside air into the house, improving indoor air quality.

Indoor dust can pose health risks, in particular to young children. New facts (as released by the epa.gov site in Sept 2009) reveals that indoor dust is highly contaminated by persistent and endocrine disrupting chemicals (such as poly-chlorinated biphenyls).

Heat pumps achieve energy effectiveness by transferring heat around as opposed to liberating it. This is not to say there is no air activity with a heat pump, but the heat exchange lowers that process. So does the lack of a cold-cycle as it exists in many conventional furnaces, which also acts to blow dust through the house.

About the author – Lorie Wampler creates articles for the residential heat pumps blog. It’s a nonprofit blog targeted on her personal experience with A/C to decrease energy usage and improve indoor air quality. With this she would like to increase the attention on eco-friendly tips for the home and change the general public conception of energy efficiency.

US Natural Gas, www.usnatgascorp.com – the independent energy firm focused on the acquisition of mature, long-lived oil and natural gas resources, reported acquisition of 120 acres of mineral rights in W. Virginia’s Wayne County today.

With its primary sites in Kentucky and West Virginia’s Appalachian Basin, the Company’s acquisition in the Lincoln District (Radnor Quad) of Wayne County is surrounded by several proven and highly productive wells drilled to an average of 5k feet and bearing no significant explorative efforts to date.

President of UNGS, Wayne Anderson, commented on the addition of acreage in West Virginia and noted the particularly promising potential of this new resource as nicely suited for one of the Company’s upcoming drilling programs.

Anderson also cited ongoing developments with the Wilon Resources, Inc. acquisition, reporting with pleasure to the Company’s shareholders that 43 wells are in production and delivering to Columbia Gas Transmission’s pipeline.

Projections indicate another six to seven wells will be in production by the middle of this month, after the Sulfa Treat vessels – required due to the high hydrogen sulfide output of these wells in particular – are installed and ready.

Anderson also outlined the imminent completion of several pending deep wells to shareholders. This Completion project, on wells which were drilled within the past four years, will launch this quarter.

Daily production output company-wide has steadily improved in recent months, according to Anderson, as UNGS has set about its reworking and completion efforts. The Company is still in the market for additional opportunities to grow shareholder returns by acquiring underutilized assets.

GreenHouse, www.greenhouseintl.com – the San Diego-based sustainable solutions provider with a global reach and a broad technology footprint which spans energy, infrastructure and biofuel, disclosed details today regarding a partnership with PepsiCo® to upgrade energy efficiency at Pepsi’s Buena Park bottling plant.

GreenHouse will act in its capacity as a qualified service provider of Southern California Edison’s (SCE) Automated Demand Response (Auto-DR) program, utilizing the Auto-DR system to reduce power consumption during costly peak hours while allowing PepsiCo to reduce operating costs and thus also receive financial incentives from SCE.

Customers of SCE using the Auto-DR program participate in an evolving smart energy grid initiative which is eco-friendly and readily promotes the responsible management of “critical resources like the electrical grid”, according to PepsiCo’s VP of Mfg., Pablo Cussatti.

Financial incentives and tech support for SCE customers with automated load control systems participating in the Auto-DR program make the deal even sweeter, and allow for automated energy optimization during demand response events and peak energy demand.

This constitutes a further recognition by PepsiCo of their commitment to transforming their infrastructure along energy-conscious parameters. Cussatti hailed SCE and GRHU for their dedication to helping the whole environment, from the underlying ecological biomes to PepsiCo and other ratepayers, through the judicious implementation of the Auto-DR program.

VP of GRHU, Rob Davis, described the symmetrical relationship between Auto-DR and the Company’s own vision of deploying cutting-edge technology and methods to reduce energy consumption.

Davis characterized this high-profile deal with Pepsi as an honor, and projected that it would likely be the first of many opportunities to participate in Pepsi’s ongoing corporate sustainability initiatives, as GRHU’s business philosophy is the employment of green solutions to reduce costs and increase profitability.

Concurrent reported a decline in sales and a net loss for fiscal 2010 due to lower capital expenditures by some of its customers.

Concurrent reported sales of $60.4 million in fiscal 2010, compared to $71.6 million in fiscal 2009. The company reported a net loss of $1.0 million, or ($0.12) per diluted share in fiscal 2010, compared to a net loss of $14.4 million, or ($1.75) per diluted share in fiscal 2009. The large net loss in fiscal 2009 was caused by a $17.1 million impairment charge.

The management of Concurrent attributed the decrease in sales in fiscal 2010 to a reduction in orders by two cable customers during the first half of the fiscal year. Despite the slow down in orders, management was optimistic on the upcoming fiscal year.
Dan Mondor, the CEO of Concurrent, said, “I believe we are well-positioned for long-term growth with our new three-screen video and media data solutions. I am encouraged by the expanding market awareness of Concurrent and the steady increase in customer acceptance of these solutions.”

Silverado Gold Mines Ltd. noted in a press release yesterday that the antimony markets have advanced from $4,000 per tonne (2200 lbs.) in early 2009 to $9,800 per tonne in July 2010. This is according to Martin Hayes, chief correspondent of TheBullionDesk.com, a London metals trading company.

The U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) shows that China produced 170,000 tonnes of antimony out of a total 2009 global output of 187,000 tonnes. China is the world’s largest producer of antimony. Chinese smelters are being rebuilt to upgrade scrubbing systems (pollution controls) and mine production is off dramatically due to mine closures because of a number of major mining accidents in the last year. This is also the case in South Africa.

Due to this major decline in output and given the antimony, trioxide flame retardant industry continues to grow at 8 percent per year, and as new uses for the strategic metal emerge, the market price is expected to continue rising. New uses for the metal include window frames for building construction and additives to carbon fiber components.

Silverado Gold Mines Ltd.’s Nolan property displays North America’s most consistent width (six inches to two feet) of stibnite (antimony sulfide) as an ore body grading 28 percent antimony or 616 pounds per metric tonne. The main vein now undergoes drilling over a 3,500-foot length and to the northeast along a series of anomalous geochemical and geophysical zones where the #1 vein surfaces again at a width of 6 inches of solid or massive stibnite assaying 28 percent antimony and containing native gold.

The Company has continued drill core studies in the Pringle Bench area of the 3,500 foot long by 450 to 500 foot deep drilled zone. This study has confirmed that the halo of quartz carbonate stockwork of veins and veinlets containing stibnite and native gold continues to the northeast limit of drilling with mineralized widths of up to 30 feet either side of the #1 vein.

Headquartered in Vancouver, British Columbia, Silverado Gold Mines Ltd. is an exploration-stage enterprise focused on the exploration of gold properties with some past production. They have gold properties located throughout Alaska. This includes a 100 percent interest in numerous mining claims located on the Nolan Creek property.

UFood, www.ufoodgrill.com, has modeled its success around a very simple philosophy of providing great-tasting/healthy food fast. Today the Company announced the signing of an area development agreement with Robinson Hill Hospitality Group (RHHG) of Chicago which will result in tacking on several new UFood Grill locations at five major US airports.

President of the decade-old airport food franchise operating company, RHHG’s Dee Robinson, welcomed the expansion and cited the incredible success of the recently opened Cleveland/Hopkins Airport UFood Grill by RHHG as instrumental to continued cooperation.

Chairman and CEO of UFFC, George Naddaff, named Robinson personally in welcoming this franchisee into further expansion by the Company, noting the surging popularity of the UFood Grill menu among travelers as a delicious and nutritious alternative to competitors.

The UFood Grill menu consists of food made with a back-to-basics approach emphasizing great taste and quality ingredients, from whole grains and choice meats to fresh organic produce, light cheeses and dressings – all items baked, steamed, or grilled and containing zero trans fats.

By designing a menu around eating profiles, UFFC managed to create a robust palette which accommodates all special dietary requirements from Vegetarian to Gluten-Free and Low Carb.

Naddaff cited colleges and hospitals as additional targets for UFood expansion, and quickly summarized other recent relevant activity:

• June – master license agreement with Hudson Group Retail LLC for 10 units in major US airports
• July – agreement with Congusto, L.P., Texas to develop 35 units, and the opening of the Cleveland/Hopkins Airport location

With a variety of traditional locations, as well as prominent sites at Boston Logan and Dallas-Fort Worth airports, UFood is rapidly becoming a well-known destination for health-conscious travelers seeking the best in tasty food on-the-go.

The growth strategy looks solid, and should prove a viable investment vehicle for shareholders in this Boston Market creator-run outfit that won ARN’s Best New Airport Concession for concept in 2009. UFood also continues to generate outstanding feedback from customers who enjoy the attractively-priced and healthy fare.
