Vertical Branding Unveils Its Latest Household Product Innovation, The SteamBuddy
Tuesday January 29, 8:20 am ET
Company Proceeds with Roll-Out Based on Successful Test-Marketing Campaign
LOS ANGELES--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Vertical Branding, Inc. (OTC BB: VBDG.OB, News) announced today that it has launched a new household product called SteamBuddy, a versatile, lightweight, handheld steam cleaner ideal for clothes and other household fabrics such as drapes and curtains (www.buysteambuddy.com). By providing a controlled, on-demand burst of steam, SteamBuddy ?puts the power of your dry cleaner in your hands.? The innovative household spot steamer heats in seconds, is gentle on fabrics and packs easily for travel. SteamBuddy removes wrinkles and odors without flattening the fabric and without the need to wrestle with a bulky ironing board and heavy, slow-to-heat conventional iron.
"SteamBuddy satisfies virtually all of our criteria for bringing a product to market," said Nancy Duitch, CEO of Vertical Branding. "It addresses the needs of our core customer by being an affordable, easier-to-use alternative that is equally or more effective than ironing or costly dry cleaning. SteamBuddy also has the potential for a long retail lifecycle, which could mean a source of significant recurring revenues after initial retail seeding. SteamBuddy exemplifies the result of our exhaustive product development, selection and test-marketing approach, which, along with the other key ingredients of our model for marketing and distributing consumer products, uniquely positions Vertical Branding in today's marketplace."
SteamBuddy is the latest in a series of commercially successful Vertical Branding products to be presented by Billy Mays, the widely recognized household product spokesperson, joining ZorbEEZ?, Hercules Hook? and others.?
We are excited about the positive response of retailers thus far to SteamBuddy. Based on initial indications of interest, we expect to place SteamBuddy in more than 22,000 stores by the second quarter of this year,? said John Cammarano, President of Retail Sales for the Company?s Adsouth retail division. ?Our retail partners, including some of the world?s mass-marketers and drug chains, recognize the value of our ongoing multimedia and multi-channel marketing strategy, which builds substantial consumer interest in the product by the time it appears on store shelves."
Special ?order today? premiums available at (www.buysteambuddy.com) include a brush attachment and an innovative creaser as bonus items.

XsunX Comments on Solar Comparative Analysis Report
Tuesday January 29, 6:30 am ET
ALISO VIEJO, Calif., Jan. 29 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- XsunX, Inc. (OTC Bulletin Board: XSNX - News), a solar technology Company engaged in the build-out of its multi-megawatt thin film photovoltaic (TFPV) solar manufacturing facilities, announced the release today of a report providing a detailed, unbiased analysis of the Company's competitive position relative to incumbent PV-technologies and immediate competing products.
The report, funded by XsunX in response to market interest, was investigated and prepared by IBIS Associates, a management-consulting firm that specializes in assisting clients with business development decisions concerning materials based manufacturing technologies.
The report provides insight to the Levelized Cost of Electricity (LCOE), a metric by which electricity generation technologies are compared. This is an established basis for evaluating the cost of power generation methods taking into account those aspects of a technology's performance that directly impact power generation, efficiency, system cost, and reliability. The analysis compared the XsunX amorphous silicon ASI-120 module with a group of other solar technologies in a 1MW simulated installation in the Phoenix and Portland areas.
The IBIS study found cost and performance advantages in the use of the XsunX amorphous solar technology in contrast to conventional silicon wafer and three other commercialized TFPV technologies. As shown within the study, XsunX believes that its ASI-120 solar module, in large installations, can provide lower cost and superior performance to a marketplace seeking products that consistently and dependably deliver electricity over a wide range of environments.
"The study underscores the decisions we made to use amorphous silicon, and to pursue large, on-grid applications," stated XsunX CEO Tom Djokovich. "It is our business strategy to service the multi-mega watt solar farm installation market, working to deliver cost advantages. The study found that, if we chose to, we could market our products at well over $3 U.S.D. per watt and still provide operators of solar farms with substantive cost benefits relative to other technologies that claim to provide higher efficiencies," he added.
The report can be found on the XsunX web site at http://www.xsunx.com/product-intro.htm . XsunX and IBIS will be co-presenting the findings of the report at the Wire C 2008, Washington International Renewable Energy Conference, March 4-6, Washington, DC.
About XsunX
Based in Aliso Viejo, Calif., XsunX is developing thin film photovoltaic (TFPV) amorphous silicon solar cell manufacturing processes to produce TFPV solar modules. The Company has begun to build a multi-megawatt TFPV solar module production facility in the United States to meet the growing demand for solar cell products used in large scale commercial projects, utility power fields, and other on-grid applications. XsunX plans to grow production capacities to over 100 megawatts in 2010 by executing a phased build-out of its manufacturing systems.

BioForce Nanosciences' Reorganizes Senior Management Team to Reflect Transition to Commercial Enterprise
Thursday January 24, 9:51 am ET
Henderson to Focus on Scientific Side of Business
Frey Brings 30 Years' Management and Operations Experience to CEO Job
AMES, Iowa--(BUSINESS WIRE)--BioForce Nanosciences Holdings, Inc. (OTC BB: BFNH.OB), a producer of integrated biological and mechanical systems for life science researchers at the micro and nano scales, today announced that Kerry Frey, formerly President and Chief Operating Officer, will now be President and Chief Executive Officer. Eric Henderson, who was Chief Executive Officer, will now be Executive Vice President and Chief Science Officer, a newly created position.
Henderson, age 51, said, "I am very happy and excited about this change in our duties. I am a scientist by training and look forward to spending more time doing what I love, research. I intend to lead our efforts to develop new products to support our flagship device, the Nano eNabler? molecular printer. The company is now at a stage where a genuine businessman needs to step into the CEO's job, and I have every confidence that Kerry is the right person for BioForce at this point in its development."
Frey, age 62, said, "BioForce has made the transition from a development-stage entity to a commercial enterprise, and we needed to structure our management team to reflect that progression and to ensure continued growth of our company. I have the background, training and experience to guide BioForce to where its shareholders want it to be."
"BioForce has made great strides in the last year or so culminating in a fourth quarter 2007 in which we sold 5 Nano eNablers, four of them through our overseas distributors. That brings the year's total to 9, and to 11 since inception. With customers on three continents, a US sales force actively pursuing business, and an expanding international distribution network, we are poised for a strong 2008."
Frey concluded, "In taking on these responsibilities, I can and will rely on our CFO, Greg Brown who has broad experience managing both startup companies and venture capital firms. Eric will, of course, continue to participate in the management of BioForce, but by freeing his scientific talents, we have actually leveraged his abilities to ensure that BioForce continues to develop innovative commercial products and research, remaining on the cutting edge of nano-biotechnology."

BioSolar's Successful Completion of Rigorous Testing Protocol Is an Important Step Forward Toward UL Certification
Thursday January 17, 10:17 am ET
SANTA CLARITA, CA--(MARKET WIRE)--Jan 17, 2008 -- BioSolar(TM), Inc. (OTC BB: BSRC.OB), developer of a breakthrough technology to produce bio-based materials from renewable plant sources that reduce the cost of photovoltaic solar cells, today reports that the company's backsheet material has passed the rigorous Damp Heat Test, moving the materials one step closer to Underwriters Laboratories (UL) certification.
As specified in UL testing protocol 1703, the Damp Heat Test ascertains the product's ability to withstand years of exposure in an outdoor environment without breaking down. This test subjects the material to 1000 hours at 85 degrees and 85% humidity. The test was successfully completed on January 16, 2008. UL 1703 is a comprehensive series of tests for photovoltaic modules. These tests are time consuming, and all requirements must be satisfied.
Dr. Stanley Levy, the company's Chief Technology Officer, said, "We are pleased to report that our backsheet materials have passed this test, which is one of the most severe tests included in the UL 1703 protocol. We will analyze these results to focus in on the most promising candidate for final production certification."
As detailed previously, SBM Solar of Concord, NC, a strategic partner of BioSolar, is in the final process of obtaining UL certification for their all polymer packaged PV module. Upon receiving their UL certification, SBM will submit additional modules to Underwriters Laboratories for UL approval, changing their standard backsheet material to BioSolar's bio-based backsheet. By utilizing a complete photovoltaic module that has already received UL approval, and only replacing one component (the backsheet material), the company expects to "fast track" the approvals process.
While emphasizing the grueling nature of the UL approval process, Dr. David Lee, BioSolar's President and Chief Executive Officer, provided additional insight into BioSolar's approach to the company's "fast track" process saying, "UL approval is an extremely demanding process. It can take years and hundreds of thousands of dollars to obtain UL approval for a photovoltaic module. Our 'fast track' process is expected to dramatically shorten the time it takes for the first solar module maker, our partner SBM Solar, to obtain UL approval with our backsheet."
"We're talking months not years," said Dr. Lee. "We expect that this will place competitive pressures on other photovoltaic manufacturers to accelerate their own UL approval process incorporating BioSolar's backsheet."

Alternative Construction Technologies Receives Federal GSA Schedule Listing for ACTech Panel System and Construction Services
Friday January 18, 6:30 am ET
Company Now Eligible for Federal Contracts Worldwide as Material Supplier and Contracting Services Which Qualify Under 'Green' Mandates and Incentives
MELBOURNE, Fla., Jan. 18, 2008 (PRIME NEWSWIRE) -- Alternative Construction Technologies, Inc. (OTC BB: ACCY.OB) announced today that it has received official notification that the ACTech(r) Panel system, its ``state of the art'', galvanized steel structural insulated panel building materials; several of its application specific, turn-key, scalable, stackable, portable and versatile ``green'' modular buildings; and its construction contracting services division are now eligible to receive domestic and international contract awards through and from the General Services Administration (GSA) of the United States Government. ACCY answers the call for energy efficient, sustainable, ``green'', disaster resistant and simple-to-use or deploy materials and buildings because all of its offerings are capable of meeting any of the prominent ``green'' building standards including LEED (Leadership in Energy Efficient Design), BuildSmart of Florida Power & Light (NYSE:FPL - News), Florida Green Building Coalition and Energy Star.
The GSA serves as a centralized procurement and property management agency for the United States Federal Government. The GSA manages more than one-fourth of the government's total procurement dollars and influences the management of $500 billion in federal assets, including 8,600 government-owned or leased buildings and 208,000 vehicles. The GSA helps preserve our past and define our future as a steward of more than 425 historic properties. The GSA is also manager of the website: http://www.USA.gov, the official portal to federal government information and services. The GSA's mission to provide superior workplaces, expert technology solutions, acquisition services, purchasing and E-Gov travel solutions and management policies, at best value, allows federal agencies to focus on their core missions.
Under Executive Order 13423: ``Strengthening Federal Environmental, Energy and Transportation Management'' announced in January 2007, certain goals were set for federal agencies including an energy reduction of 3% annually through 2015 or 30% over the next 7 years (buildings account for 41% of all energy consumption). The progress is measured and monitored by the President and the Office of Management and Budget. Additionally, 19 Federal Agencies have signed a Memorandum of Understanding establishing a set of standards for creating, operating and maintaining high performance and sustainable government buildings. Pursuant to Section 1331 of the Energy Policy Act of 2005, an Energy-Efficient Commercial Buildings Tax Deduction was created and are now being considered for possible extension and increase. Twenty-three States have adopted similar policies or mandates.
``As far as we know,'' stated A.J. Francel, the Company COO, ``there is no building material on the market with as many features and benefits or economic advantages as the ACTech(r) Panel system at any cost. It is for this reason we feel we are best positioned to serve Government needs and answer the call of these mandates and policies, whether they come from Federal, State or Commercial Enterprise, or just demanded by value oriented and environmentally conscious consumers.''
The Company further added that the listing will include other subordinated schedules of access to government related contracts beneath the GSA. These schedules are typically more specific to an individual agency, department or organization. For example, the Department of Defense's Defense Logistics Agency, will also include the ACTech(r) Panel system. The World Health Organization and the Veterans Administration will also have listings. The ACtech(r) panel system can be delivered in a kit for site built applications or pre-built and delivered complete for modular or pre-engineered applications. The ACTech(r) Panel system will also be included under a new GSA Kitting Program. Kitting is a program that offers the end user a turn key product in combination with other technologies such as solar, for example. The kit must include two or more products.
Alternative Construction Technologies is now in the process of listing over 35 products including: the individual ACTech(r) Panel system and/or components; portable ``green'' barracks that sleep 10 and can be upgraded to bullet and/or explosion proof; portable, mini command centers; a wide range of classrooms and administrative buildings; FEMA compliant safe rooms; bathroom facilities; modular housing; and many more.
Alternative Construction Technologies, Inc. (ACT) possesses a unique and patented construction technology called the ACTech(r) Panel System that is used in the design and production of state of the art buildings in commercial, residential, industrial and modular building applications. Generically known as structural insulated panels (SIPs), ACT's revolutionary and efficient construction solution utilizes an inherently better galvanized steel ``skin'' SIP system to complete energy efficient, stronger, safer, faster, and more economical structure than conventional wood and brick based building products. The patented ACTech(r) Panel is environmentally-friendly and easier to construct with -- not only saving labor cost and cutting construction time, but also reducing recurring monthly heating and cooling energy bills by 30-50% and often more. Most importantly, the ACTech(r) Panel possesses disaster resistant strength and has tested stronger than conventional concrete block or wood frame construction. In hurricane projectile tests, the ACTech(r) Panel continues to meet the most stringent wind, projectile and uplift codes in the nation levied by the 2006 Florida Building Code. The ACTech(r) Panel System offers builders and consumers many competitive and comparative advantages of use due to its wide range of attributes. As this new construction technology gains awareness, or hurricane and tornado-prone states establish new building codes and rebuild from recent weather disasters, ACT believes its products will be in greater demand. ACT has recently added complementary services including design, consulting, and construction through its various general contracting companies located in Florida, Georgia and Tennessee.

Hanover Gold Announces Drilling Plans On Orcutt Property
Thursday January 17, 8:00 am ET
HOUSTON, Jan. 17, 2008 (PRIME NEWSWIRE) -- Hanover Gold Company (OTC BB: HVGO.OB), today announced that, in the next few days, the company plans to spud two new wells in the Orcutt field as part of a much larger planned drilling program at the company's Orcutt property, located in Santa Barbara County, California.
These new wells will target oil from the shallow Opal A (diatomite) formation. Over the last 100 years, this oil rich resource has been well-documented as potentially productive.
``We are excited about these projects and the potential they bring to our company and our shareholders. We are also proud to be partnering with what we consider to be the Dream Team of Thermal Recovery,'' said Hanover CEO Rocky Emery, referring to noted petroleum reservoir engineers, Ramon Elias and Michael Prats.
Diatomite is a shallow formation (from surface down to 2,000 feet) with porosity ranging from 50-70 percent and oil saturations in excess of 50 percent. The major companies began cyclical streaming of this resource in Kern County seven years ago, and production from the diatomite is now in excess of 120,000 bbls of oil per day.
The company owns an interest in some 4,000 acres in the Orcutt field, which currently has 40 wells in the deeper Monterey that are producing. The company and its operating partner will be reworking the Monterey to enhance this production.
Hanover Gold Company Inc. recently acquired the assets and liabilities of Rock Energy Partners LP under the terms of an asset purchase agreement dated Dec. 21, 2007, and announced Rock Energy as the surviving operating entity. Rock Energy Partners will continue to trade under the symbol ``HVGO'' until a new symbol is issued by the NASD. The new public entity will be renamed Rock Energy Resources Corporation.
