Ultimately, an Order was issued by the Supreme Court of the State New York, in and for New York County, directing that the shares be canceled of record by Registrar and Transfer Company, the Company's transfer agent.

ERHE (.41) Interim CEO Issues Update for Shareholders
Market Wire "US Press Releases "
HOUSTON, TX -- (MARKET WIRE) -- 01/31/07 -- Nicolae Luca, interim chief executive officer of ERHC Energy Inc. (OTCBB: ERHE), issued the following update after the market closed on Wednesday, January 31, 2007.
"I am proud to once again update the ERHC Energy family on the company's progress during the past month. This is the first update for 2007 and I take the opportunity to wish everyone a good year.
"I would like to say that it has been such a delight to have James Ledbetter join us in the new position of Vice President Technical. Mr. Ledbetter is quickly getting situated. Among other responsibilities, he will manage the Company's relationships with consortium partners and various regulatory agencies. Mr. Ledbetter brings more than 25 years' experience in exploration and production projects to ERHC Energy. He has an international background, having worked on projects in more than 20 countries around the world. We anticipate that the depth of skills and competences that Mr. Ledbetter offers will be especially valuable for ERHC Energy as operations are initiated in the Joint Development Zone (JDZ).
"We also are looking beyond the JDZ. As stated by ERHC Energy Chairman Sir Emeka Offor, Mr. Ledbetter will help implement a focused acquisition strategy that targets a portfolio of low- to medium-risk properties. The Board's goal is to build a significant revenue base that will have a positive impact on the Company's profitability for the benefit of its shareholders.
"Of course, the JDZ is a focus of our current activities. While we are not at liberty to share a great deal of detailed information from recent technical and operating committee meetings on Blocks 2, 3 and 4, we are happy to report that in conjunction with the operating partners, Addax Petroleum and Sinopec Corp., our business strategy in the JDZ blocks continues to progress.
"As an illustration of our intention to grow, we have relocated ERHC's Houston headquarters to a new floor within the same building at 5444 Westheimer Road. We have entered into a long-term lease with an option through 2011 on 5,200 square feet. This is more than double our previous space and will be enough to accommodate new staff as the Company grows and as operations in the JDZ begin to take shape. ERHC Energy's new address is 5444 Westheimer Road, Suite 1440, Houston, Texas 77056.
"ERHC's normal business operations continue unabated as our work to identify candidates for the Company's CEO and CFO position continues. The selection of Mr. Ledbetter should offer insight into the caliber of professional and depth of experience we are demanding for our leadership team. We continue to believe that it is in the best interests of the Company and its shareholders to take such time as is necessary to select the right leaders.
"Meanwhile, work is underway on ERHC's first quarter financial report for the period that ended December 31, 2006.
"As always, thank you for your continued interest and support."

YEHS (.38) European Test Yields Major Orders, European Distribution
Market Wire "US Press Releases "
MIAMI, FL -- (MARKET WIRE) -- 01/31/07 -- Infomercial leader Youth Enhancement Systems, Inc (PINKSHEETS: YEHS) announced today it had received purchase orders for ProCede for distribution in Spain. Brought by The Global DR Group, Inc, YES' international distributor, the orders stem from an extremely successful media marketing test that aired in Spain the past 2 weeks. The company today received an initial PO from Global relative to the European test in order to seed the market for 1000 units of ProCede including ProCede's shampoos and conditioners. The company expects an order for approximately 10,000 units of ProCede in the coming month, though no assurances can be given. At an average retail price of U.S. $200 per unit, the 10,000-piece order represents $2,000,000.00 in gross sales.
"This is more great news," says Joseph Emas, YES' CEO. "We have worked diligently with our distribution partner, The Global DR Group, to gain international distribution for ProCede. Their enthusiasm for our products and commitment to grow our business overseas is tremendous and now paying dividends. They have done a phenomenal job."
The company also learned today that ProCede will be approved for sale in Spain in the next few weeks. Under the agreement with Global DR Group, YES wholesales ProCede for approximately $13.50 per unit to Global. Global secures distribution partners in specific territories, who then assume all marketing responsibilities in assigned territories. The company announced a similar result of a media test conducted in a 22 country Pan regional media test a few months back. That result created a distribution opportunity similarly, and the regulatory approval needed to effectuate distribution there should be completed shortly.
"Let's hope this is the beginning of big sales in Europe and every major market in the world, " says Global DR's CFO Jose Hane. "ProCede is a great product that solves many problems for men with thinning hair. As thinning hair is a global issue, it is natural that we would see this kind of excitement from our international DR retailers. This is better than we expected, frankly."
Youth Enhancement Systems is the innovator and Direct Response retailer of highly effective products and services including ProCede, Backyard Drills DVD with Bill Parcells, The Sonic Clean Between Machine, Allure Smile and Serotrol. ProCede is consistently ranked in the top 5 most-aired short-form infomercials in the U.S., ranking in the top 5 for 22 consecutive months, and reaching number 1 of all products in the Health and Beauty category twice in that time period (Infomercial Monitoring Service). ProCede is clinically tested and proven safe and effective for producing fuller thicker hair shafts after just a single application.
To date, ProCede has received registration approvals in 28 foreign countries including the European Union, United Arab Emirates and South Africa, and the company plans on making an announcement shortly outlining international distribution plans for its powerful patent-pending formula.
"The products in our pipeline to solve problems in virtually every pertinent sector," said Ken Oxsalida, Chief Marketing Officer for the company. "You may not have heard of our company, but if you have a TV set, read newspapers, surf the 'Net or listen to radio, you've definitely seen our products. You'll be seeing a lot more of us in the weeks to come."

CHNW (.0002) Finalizes Intermediary Broker (IB) Agreement Enabling to Begin Offering Forex Services
PR Newswire "US Press Releases "
LAS VEGAS, Feb. 1 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ - Cash Now Corporation (CHNW.PK) www.cashnow.com (Cash Now) Cash Now is a public company engaged in the design, manufacture, marketing and distribution of customized payday loan and check cashing software and white label or private label back end office systems. Through its www.cashnow.net site the company offers Internet-based payday loans and other financial utility tools. The company today announced that late last night it did reach and finalize an agreement with Advanced Markets Inc. (AM) to begin offering IB services. AM is a dealer in a over-the-counter foreign currency spot contracts, and is a non-clearing futures commissions merchant with the Commodity Futures Trading Commission and a member of the National Futures Association, pursuant to the Commodity Exchange Act.
Mr. Richard Sciacchetano, a Cash Now advisor on IB Forex entry, explained that this is a win-win scenario for both sides. Cash Now's marketing strategy will be to offer a low cost pass through Forex services for clients looking to do their own trades. AM is the industry leader in low commission fee structure. The 2 companies have agreed on a 50%-50% revenue share split.
In other company news the company acknowledges that it has also reached this week an agreement in principle with a London, UK, based International Forex firm to begin offering Forex services to the clients directly, and to trade with its own funds using the UK based firms back office technology and integrated services. Cash Now was required to provide the UK firm's board of directors a comprehensive business plan and its plan of action. "We are very pleased that we have passed that hurdle and that we can now focus on getting to business" said Mr.Garr Winters, Cash Now's CEO. "We are now looking forward to advancing and implementing both of these companies solutions. We are aiming at having Cash Now being able to offer a full service range of Forex products and services to the clients." Mr.Winters added; "the Forex industry is a regulated one. Now that we have passed the compatibility test, Cash Now intends to immediately begin the process of doing the necessary filings and registrations towards moving to being a full service Forex dealer."
Garr Winters, Cash Now's CEO, said "while this product is highly sought after by many and can add thousands of dollars to our revenue stream, Cash Now remains committed to keep providing payday loan and check cashing license systems. Our plans are to keep offering all the products and services we currently offer and to add Forex as the predominant product on our Cash Now.Com main site. Cash Now ranked in the top 40,000 most visited web site on the Internet by Alexa. This is quite an achievement considering that by some reports there are now over 3 billion web sites on the Internet; although the true number is uncertain. Almost all of the traffic generated on Cash Now is the so called organic one or non "pay per click type"; providing unique visitors and the type of traffic most desirable to a businesses on line. In closing, with this type of traffic generated by Cash Now and this Forex product blended in with our self service and low fee structure, it may possibly have all the makings of being a huge growth vessel for us and our shareholders."
Cash Now Background
Cash Now Corporation, a pioneer in the payday loan industry, is developing the most comprehensive menu of services in the cash advance industry, all centered on the Cash Now brand. The company's proven business model includes licensing to corporately operate locations across the U.S. and Canada.

ATVE (.03) Makes Aggressive Move Into the Electronic Payment Industry
Market Wire "US Press Releases "
TORONTO -- (MARKET WIRE) -- 02/01/07 -- ActiveCore Technologies, Inc. (OTCBB: ATVE), a Company that now operates exclusively as a payment technology solution provider, is pleased to confirm that it has successfully transitioned 100% of its business to the electronic payment industry following the completion of several key acquisitions in just the very first few weeks of 2007. The Company's immediate plan is to be revenue generating from these wholly owned divisions in the current quarter with continued improvement likely throughout the year based upon our aggressive expansion plans.
Mr. Hamilton, ActiveCore CEO, stated, "Early in the 3rd quarter of 2006 ActiveCore made a strategic decision to become a pure play in the electronic payment market place. The Company has acted swiftly to implement this new direction and I am very pleased to inform our shareholders that we are on schedule and have achieved the key steps to ensure a successful entry into this market."
The Company completed the divesture of all of its business units and technology that were not related to the payment industry in the 4th quarter of 2006. These divestitures also allowed the Company to dramatically reduce costs for both infrastructure and personnel resulting in a leaner organization that was ready to move quickly by utilizing proprietary, patented technology to secure a foothold in a thriving, multi-Billion dollar payment processing industry.
ActiveCore completed two major acquisitions, GSPS, the UK parent company of ePocket Inc. and CyBux, in December 2006 and January 2007 respectively. These two acquisitions provided ActiveCore with the revolutionary digital coin technology it required to execute its transition into the electronic payment industry. The acquisition of this technology has resulted in immediate revenue generation for the Company.
On January 12, 2007 ActiveCore signed its first contract for use of the ePocket electronic cash product with E-COIN, a UK-based company with operations in Spain. This contract will result in revenue of approximately $500,000.00 USD in the first two quarters of 2007 with ongoing royalty revenue from E-COIN as it implements the ePocket technology into the European online gaming industry. The royalty revenue from E-COIN will grow to a run rate of approximately $500,000.00 USD per month by the end of 2007 and will continue to ramp-up in conjunction with our intended phase of accelerated growth in successive years to follow.
Mr. Hamilton went on to say, "We are very pleased with the initial success we have achieved since breaking into the electronic payment industry. We are currently in late stage discussions with several organizations that have the potential to add significant additional revenue to the Company in 2007 and beyond. With the Company's redirection now complete, we are more confident than ever in the ability of our digital coin technology to generate significant revenue and in turn increase market value for our shareholders."

UPDA (.132) Texas Railroad Commission Authorizes UPDA Operators to Return 28 Wells on Sanders Lease to Production - Two 210 Barrel Tanks Immediately Filled to Capacity
Business Wire "US Press Releases "
DALLAS--(BUSINESS WIRE)--
On January 31, 2007, UPDA Operators, Inc. a subsidiary of Universal Property Development and Acquisition Corporation (OTCBB:UPDA) (FWB:UP1) (BCN:UP1) (GER:UP1) (MUN:UP1) (STU:UP1), was notified by the Texas Railroad Commission (www.rrc.state.tx.us) that it has been authorized to begin production of 28 oil and gas wells in Palo Pinto County, Texas. As a result, as much as 400 barrels of oil are ready for sale from these wells on the Sanders Lease owned by UPDA subsidiary, Canyon Creek Oil and Gas, Inc.
"According to the field personnel, one 210 barrel tank is 15 feet full of oil and another has at least 11 feet or more of oil," reports Chris McCauley, UPDA Vice President. "The exact amount will be determined when the oil gets picked up on Thursday but at 1.16 barrels per inch in the tank, that's more than 360 barrels of oil. As the workover continues on the remaining wells, it appears that the production from this field may be more than had been predicted."
With the success and promise of the blending and distribution business being developed by UPDA Texas Trading and the progress of UPDA Operators in bringing increasing numbers of wells online, UPDA now projects positive cash-flow from 2 of its 4 revenue sectors in the near term. In addition, Ambient Wells Services is maintaining its negotiation of third party service contracts and UPDA continues its efforts to secure technologies for the establishment of an alternative energy division.
"The plan appears to be progressing much as we had planned," continued McCauley. "The team that has now been assembled is functioning efficiently and effectively, executing the business plan just as designed by the management and board."
Universal Property Development and Acquisition Corporation (OTCBB:UPDA) focuses on the acquisition and development of proven oil and natural gas reserves and other energy opportunities through the creation of joint ventures with under-funded owners of mineral leases and cutting-edge technologies.

INTK (.125) Receives Purchase Order From Chinese Distributor
PrimeZone "PrimeZone "
NAPLES, Fla., Feb. 1, 2007 (PRIME NEWSWIRE) -- Industrial Nanotech (Pink Sheets:INTK), a company that specializes in nanotechnology innovation and product development, today reported that the Company has received a purchase order from Northstar Power Engineering Co, Ltd. (NPEC), a company that provides industrial supplies for the oil and gas industry, textile industry, power plants and civil infrastructure projects in China.
Northstar Power Engineering is increasing its inventory of Nansulate as it plans to market the Company's unique nanotechnology-based coating to China's growing textile industry. NPEC already has a buying inquiry from a textile factory for 300 dyeing tanks with 120 square meters of surface area per machine which would equate to over 5,000 gallons of Nansulate. The company became a distributor of Nansulate in August 2006 after evaluating the capabilities and applications of Industrial Nanotech's insulative and anti-corrosive coatings and has since been marketing them to a broad industrial market within the People's Republic of China.
"The great success of Nansulate in Turkey is a perfect example of how our coatings' unique performance characteristics can facilitate their rapid and widespread adoption by textile plants and dyehouses. When applied to LNG burners within dyehouses throughout Turkey, Nansulate reduced energy costs initially by over 20%, growing even higher in the long run translating to hundreds of thousands of dollars in cost savings. We are confident that such positive results will fuel the same type of growth in China, whose textile industry is at record setting production levels with projected production of $161 billion in 2007," commented Francesca Crolley, VP of Operations and Marketing for Industrial Nanotech.
China is believed to have purchased two thirds of the world's textile production machinery sold over the past four years and the country currently has approximately 40,000 clothing manufacturers.
Northstar Power Engineering Co., Ltd. (NPEC), founded in early 2002, is a service company that provides technical, engineering, procurement, product and directly related services worldwide.

APNX (.35) Ends Fiscal Year 2006 with Increased Profits
Business Wire "US Press Releases "
PROVO, Utah--(BUSINESS WIRE)--
Alpine Air Express Inc. (OTCBB:APNX), announced that its operating subsidiary Alpine Air, a leading provider of regional air cargo transport and logistics services, stated in its 10-KSB, that during the year ended October 31, 2006, there was a net profit from operations of $2,768,595. This is a significant transformation from the net loss from the previous year of $(2,369,056). Management has provided exceptional leadership in implementing the necessary course changes in this evolution.
At October 31, 2006, total operating revenues were $20,156,657, representing a 9% decrease from the 2005 revenues of $22,629,890. The decrease in revenues is a direct result of the modifications made to the USPS contract in Hawaii, which reduced overall flights, but the Company's remaining flights were made under new contract pricing, which represents greater profitability.
Total direct costs substantially decreased to $15,768,378 from $22,573,169 for the years 2006 and 2005, respectively. This 30% reduction in total direct costs was fueled by the substantial reduction in flights made under the previous Hawaii contract, more effective deployment of assets, and successful cost management initiatives implemented by management.
Depreciation was $1,950,910 for an increase of $428,787 over last year. This increase is due to the change in accounting method implemented during this current period. Aircraft engine overhauls previously expensed were capitalized and have created greater depreciation expense in the current period.
Total assets decreased to $22,836,922 on October 31, 2006, from $24,543,565 on October 31, 2005. Total Liabilities also decreased from $14,539,192 to $11,300,308 during the same period. Our stockholders' equity has also increased from $10,004,373 to $11,536,684 for October 31, 2005, and October 31, 2006, respectively.
Gene Mallette, chairman and CEO of Alpine Air, commented, "Our company has done well to make the necessary changes to our USPS contracts to enable sustainable profit for years to come. Additionally, we have successfully renewed contracts located in North and South Dakota as well as taken steps to diversify our client base by winning a contract to transport cargo in Washington State for UPS. We look forward to 2007 to continue our growth and take advantage of opportunities that continue to present themselves."
Founded in 1975, Alpine Air, a wholly owned subsidiary of Alpine Air Express Inc., provides competitively priced scheduled air cargo flights throughout the western and southwestern United States. The company has an established client base that includes various contract operations, freight forwarders, and other cargo and logistics firms. Alpine Air provides superior "on time" performance and reliability, together with the flexibility to adapt quickly to the growing frequency and capacity requirements of its clients.
This press release may contain forward-looking statements including the company's beliefs about its business prospects and future results of operations. These statements involve risks and uncertainties. Among the important additional factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those forward-looking statements are risks associated with the overall economic environment, the successful completion of the proposed leasing transaction, changes in anticipated earnings of the company and other factors detailed in the company's filings with the SEC. In addition, the factors underlying company forecasts are dynamic and subject to change and therefore those forecasts speak only as of the date they are given. The company does not undertake to update them; however, it may choose from time to time to update them and if it should do so, it will disseminate the updates to the investing public.

Rockelle Signs Contract for Chock full o'Nuts at One of Long Island's Busiest Railroad Stations
Feb 1, 2007 09:00:49 (ET)
MILLER PLACE, N.Y., Feb 1, 2007 (*********wire via COMTEX) -- Rockelle Corp. (RKLC, Trade ), a developer, owner, operator and franchiser of unique quick service restaurants, cafes and food concepts, is delighted to announce that it has received the Village's preliminary approval to open a full service Chock full o'Nuts eatery at the Patchogue, LI Railroad station.
Chock full o'Nuts coffee was founded in the early 1930s in New York City and soon became one of the most favored coffee and quick service food establishments in the greater New York Metro area. In December 2005, the Segafredo Zanetti Coffee Group purchased all of Sara Lee Corporation's U.S. coffee brands, including Chock full o'Nuts.
The Long Island Railroad is one of the busiest commuter lines in the United States and the Patchogue Station serves many hundreds of daily commuters. The current mayor of Patchogue, Paul V. Pontieri Jr., was instrumental in coordinating the Village's meetings regarding this project. When completed, this Chock full o'Nuts franchise will provide much-needed food services for commuters that, heretofore, were not readily available at this station. Rockelle will also have exclusive vending rights.
Gerard Stephan, CEO & Founder of Rockelle Corp. said, "We are very encouraged by this development, as it allows us to enlarge our franchise opportunities with Chock full o'Nuts in the New York Metro area as well as other anticipated locations throughout the United States. Chock full o'Nuts is working with us on acquiring other well-known sites that should allow us to enjoy solid growth in 2007 and later years."
According to Mr. Stephan, Rockelle Corp. has other significant business developments with Chock full o'Nuts, Kahala Corp. and Stewart's Root Beer which they hope to announce in the coming months.

BARRIE, ON -- (MARKET WIRE) -- 02/01/07 -- Winning Brands Corporation (PINKSHEETS: WNBD) www.WinningBrands.ca announces that its Winning Colours® Multi-Cleaner has been listed for immediate sale and distribution by Blish-Mize Paint Sundries of Denver, Colorado -- a major distributor of paint sundries in the region. The formal launch of Winning Colours® Multi-Cleaner to retail accounts in Colorado will be on February 16th at Blish-Mize's "Rocky Mountain Spring Spectacular Buying Market." This new listing expands the reach of Winning Colours® Multi-Cleaner along the Rocky Mountains through Colorado into Utah and Wyoming. This follows recent developments in Arizona as Winning Brands moves north along the mountains before crossing west to the Pacific for coast-to-coast distribution in the USA.
Blish-Mize Paint Sundries is a division of the Atchison, Kansas parent of the same name founded in 1871. It is the policy of Winning Brands Corporation to build a distribution network of very well established business partners with deep industry knowledge and logistics expertise to ensure that Winning Colours® Multi-Cleaner is at home across America -- providing local experience, local dedication and local service everywhere. Winning Brands' Sales Manager Lorne Kelly reports that this solid progress in establishing top-quality distribution will be followed with training of store personnel; "The most important thing is for the stores to get real first-hand experiences and accumulate 'moments of truth' amongst staff. It is our business goal that paint retailers speak to their customers comfortably and recommend Winning Colours® routinely in thousands of stores across the country, every day."
Winning Colours® Multi-Cleaner is considered a breakthrough in convenience to people working with paint because of its ability to convert paint messes of almost any type into a simple clean-up with plain water. It is positioned by the company to eventually become a "breakaway" consumer product because of its ability to jump out of the paint sundries category into multiple channels of distribution. This arises from the versatility of Winning Colours® Multi-Cleaner's cleansing properties wherever messes are a problem but safety and environmental responsibility are important. Winning Brands' CEO Eric Lehner says that, "...the paint & sundries Industry is currently taking the leadership role." Winning Brands Corporation manufactures Winning Colours® Multi-Cleaner in Canada using North American materials. Winning Brands' full product range includes a variety of environmentally responsible alternative cleaning solutions, including its non-toxic Solvent Free Solutions(TM) alternative to Perchlorethylene used in Dry Cleaning.

NNBP (.125) Mayo Clinic Zooms in on Nanobacteria
Business Wire "US Press Releases "
TAMPA, Fla.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--
Nanobac Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (OTCBB:NNBP) announces scientists at Mayo, working under a collaborative agreement with Nanobac Pharmaceuticals Inc., have published an article in the Journal of Investigative Medicine regarding successfully isolating nanoparticles from human kidney stones in cell cultures. The Mayo scientists also isolated proteins, RNA and DNA that appear to be associated with the nanoparticles or CNPs.
Entitled "Mayo Clinic Zooms In On Nanobacteria," the paper describes why the Mayo researchers say the findings could lead to solving the mystery of whether nanoparticles are viable living forms that can lead to disease - in this case, kidney stones. "We are looking at how kidney stones start as very small calcifications inside the kidney and then eventually grow into stones," said Mayo Clinic's John Lieske. "In the laboratory, we have isolated nanoparticles from kidney tissue and kidney stones, and have successfully propagated them in culture. This does not clearly confirm the role of nanoparticles in the formation of kidney stones, but it offers insight not otherwise known."
Intriguingly, the study cites evidence that the calcification process is not driven solely by physical chemistry, but instead is influenced by specific proteins and cellular responses. "There are at least two novel hypotheses here in terms of how stones might actually form. One: an infectious agent. If that was the case, that would point us in the direction of using different kinds of treatments specific to an infectious agent. Two: the idea that cells drive calcification. That would suggest other alternative therapies," added co-researcher Virginia Miller.
Dr. Maniscalco, co-chair of Nanobac, stated, "We believed that CNPs play a major role in one of the most pervasive medical conditions in existence: calcification of arteries and organs. This study conducted by one of the lead medical and research facilities in the United States, lends credence to our beliefs."
About Nanobac Pharmaceuticals: Nanobac Pharmaceuticals, Inc. is dedicated to the discovery and development of products and services to improve human health through the detection and treatment of calcifying nanoparticles (CNPs), formerly known as nanobacteria. The company's pioneering research is establishing the pathogenic role of CNPs in soft tissue calcification, particularly in coronary artery, prostate and vascular disease.
Nanobac's drug discovery and development is focused on new and existing compounds that effectively inhibit, destroy or neutralize CNPs. Nanobac manufactures In Vitro Diagnostic (IVD) kits and reagents for detecting calcifying nanoparticles. IVD products include a line of assays, proprietary antibodies and reagents for uniquely recognizing CNPs. Nanobac's BioAnalytical Services works with biopharmaceutical partners to develop and apply methods for avoiding, detecting, and inactivating or eliminating CNPs from raw materials.
Nanobac Pharmaceuticals, Inc. is headquartered in Tampa, Florida. For more information, visit our website at: http://www.nanobac.com.
