Breaking News: Human BioSystems Completes Platelet Testing at Second Independent Laboratory Human BioSystems ("HBS") (OTCBB: HBSC), a developer of preservation platforms for organs and other biomaterials, specializing in the development of proprietary above zero ("HBS-AZ") and below zero ("HBS-BZ") organ and tissue preservation systems and methods for preserving blood platelets, announced today that it has completed blood platelet testing at a second independent laboratory.
"Under an agreement signed in June 2005, the laboratory has assisted HBS in testing our methods and protocols for extending the shelf life of blood platelets," said Dr. David Winter, President of Human BioSystems.
This second in-vitro study involving the cold storage of human platelets started in January of 2006 was recently completed. Ten subjects were involved and the results were consistent with those of a previous independent study. Both of these studies utilized technology covered by a patent application for which HBS has received a Notice of Allowability.
HBS is now preparing to submit an application to the FDA within the next few months in order to obtain a license for conducting human infusion studies. Favorable test results should position HBS for strategic partnering and licensing of its technology.
Blood platelets are the clotting component of blood and are collected from donors and infused into cancer patients who have undergone chemotherapy and/or radiation treatments. Such treatments inhibit the production of platelets for a period of time, possibly resulting in bleeding without regular platelet infusion.
"Currently, platelets have an FDA mandated five day shelf life. It is our goal to extend the shelf life by utilizing the proprietary HBS solution and process to preserve platelets at refrigerated temperatures for at least seven or more days," according to Dr. Winter.
"We believe that when our technology is brought to market it should drastically reduce the outdating of platelets, allowing blood centers to significantly reduce their costs without changing their existing basic procedures. The total worldwide loss due to outdating is estimated by HBS to exceed one billion dollars at the hospital level based on 6 million transfusion units collected annually and an outdate percentage of 15%. Refrigeration should inhibit bacteria growth, resulting in a safer product," added Harry Masuda, CEO of Human BioSystems.
HBS is headquartered in Palo Alto, California with research facilities in Michigan.

Corporate Developments Fidelis Energy, Inc. (OTCBB: FDEI) (the "Company") announces that it has received authorizations for expenditure (AFE) from the operator on account of its 35% working interest share in an upcoming drilling program at its North Franklin natural gas project. The Company intends to fully fund its share of the costs for a pending 2-well drilling program which will target the proven Winters formation. The new wells, the first of which is expected to spud in August 2006, will represent the fourth and fifth of a series of production wells that are planned for the North Franklin gas field.
In August 2005 the Company and partners announced the acquisition of participation rights to a large database encompassing a geophysical survey of approximately one million acres, located in central Kansas, covering parts of Ellsworth, Salina, McPherson, Reno, Harvey, Kingman, and Sedgwick counties. After a thorough review of the data purchased, the prospects selected for exploration and discussions with its consultants and operator, the Company has determined that it will no longer participate in the Kansas program. Although the project appears to have considerable merit, the Company has determined that its resources are presently better spent in the additional development of the North Franklin natural gas field.
For personal reasons, Mr. Gordon Samson has resigned as a director. The Board wishes him every success in the future.

Continental Energy Quarterly Results DALLAS, July 5, 2006 (PRIMEZONE) -- Continental Energy Corporation (OTCBB:CPPXF) announced today that it has released its interim quarterly report for the third quarter ended April 30, 2006 of its 2006 fiscal year ending June 30, 2006 and filed the report with securities regulators on SEDAR. The report is also contained within a 6-K filing with the SEC on EDGAR dated July 3, 2006.

As at April 30, 2006, the Company's interim consolidated financial statements reflect a working capital position of $2,514,833. This represents an increase in the working capital of approximately $2,554,000 compared to the July 31, 2005 working capital deficit of $39,066. The increase was mainly due to the Company selling its Yapen subsidiary and receiving cash proceeds of $3,600,000. The increase was offset by general and administrative requirements during the period. The cash balance at April 30, 2006 was $2,648,141 compared to $98,898 as at July 31, 2005, an increase of $2,549,243. During the current quarter, the Company's cash balance decreased by $666,388.
The Company used $822,711 for operating activities during the nine months ended April 30, 2006 compared with $600,876 in the nine months ended April 30, 2005. The current level of spending is 37% higher than the prior year spending for operations. During the current quarter, the Company used $622,995 as compared with $433,127 in the same fiscal quarter in the prior year.
The cash resources provided by investing activities during the nine months ended April 30, 2006 was $3,324,347 compared with using $5,802 in the nine months ended April 30, 2005. The Company's property expenditures were reduced to a maintenance level until management decides to commence further exploration and development of its Indonesian properties. The current year amount includes the proceeds from the Yapen sale, net of closing costs in the amount of $3,506,834 as well as equipment purchases of $98,643. During the current quarter, the Company used $43,393 as compared with an inflow of $33,681 in the same fiscal quarter in the prior year.
The cash resources provided by financing activities during the nine months ended April 30, 2006 was $47,613 compared with $840,253 in the nine months ended April 30, 2005. During the current period the company received proceeds of $60,000 for share issuances compared with $847,735 in the prior period. During the current quarter, cash resources provided by financing activities were $0 as compared with $767,614 in the same fiscal quarter in the prior year.
Overall, the Company had income from operations during the nine months ended April 30, 2006 of $2,463,634 compared to a loss of $1,313,673 in the nine months ended April 30, 2005. The largest difference was the fact that the Company sold its Yapen subsidiary for cash proceeds of $3,600,000 and recorded a gain of $3,506,833 on disposition. There were no disposals in the nine months ended April 30, 2005.

July 6, 2006 (FinancialWire) Three members of the House of Representatives with Washington D.C. area constituencies have asked the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) to suspend the sale of Adelphia Communications Corp. (OTC: ADELQ) until Comcast (NYSE: CMCSA) secures a deal to air the Washington National's baseball games.
The sale of bankrupt Adelphia to Comcast and Time Warner (NYSE: TWX) is pending final approval from the FCC and all the companies have recently restructured the deal to help speed up the process. The action by representatives could create another costly hurdle.
Comcast does not carry the Mid-Atlantic Sports Network (MASN), which has broadcast rights over the Nationals, due to a dispute with MASN management. Currently 1.3 million Nationals fans are unable to see most games on television.
Major League Baseball allowed Peter Angelos, owner of the Baltimore Orioles, to create MASN as compensation for opening a new team 35 miles from his franchise. Angelos plans to move broadcast of Orioles games to MASN next season after the current contract with Comcast SportsNet expires. Comcast feels the contract termination was not legal and has refused to carry MASN.
The Adelphia deal is worth an estimated $17 billion.

UPDA Update to its Shareholders - Report on Activities during the Second Quarter - Management Insight on the Future Thursday July 6, 7:00 am ET
JUNO BEACH, Fla.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--July 6, 2006--The Fourth of July marked the first year of operations for Universal Property Development and Acquisition Corporation (OTCBB:UPDA - News). Since we started our first oil and gas subsidiary with less than 2000 acres and fewer than 60 wells, UPDA has made several acquisitions and now controls over 7,000 acres of oil and gas leases with over 150 wells and is generating production from three subsidiaries. Revenues have grown from $29,000 in the 4th quarter of 2005, to $106,000 in the 1st quarter of 2006 to over $1.2 Million in the 2nd quarter of 2006; including a gain on the sale of a partial interest in one lease (full financial results will be reported in our 10QSB within the next 45 days). ADVERTISEMENT
During the second quarter we reorganized the company and laid a solid foundation to ensure that the company will continue to develop as a strong and viable entity that will grow and prosper.
The UPDA subsidiaries report the following:
Canyon Creek Oil and Gas, Inc. now controls over 3000 acres and is producing oil from 6 wells on its Archer lease, oil and gas from 8 wells on its Coleman lease and from one well on the Prideaux lease while the work over of those properties, including 15 wells, continues. Compliance with Texas Rail Road Commission regulations was completed on the Palo Pinto lease and its 26 wells are expected to be brought on line this quarter. Halliburton was retained during the quarter in order to log the Inez well and a petroleum engineer was engaged to advise on its production opportunities. Canyon Creek remains optimistic about the possibilities of this property.
Texas Energy, Inc. has acquired a portfolio of approximately 1300 acres, completed the work over of its Nantz lease and brought it on line and into production. As a result of the successful progress of its work over program, the Texas Railroad Commission has lifted the severance from the Wiechman and the Thresher-Medlin leases and a total of 16 additional wells are expected to be brought on line this quarter.
Catlin Oil and Gas, Inc. completed the acquisition of over 2700 acres in Jack County, Texas on June 2, 2006 and immediately began repairing the extensive gas pipeline and gathering system that management anticipates will deliver substantial revenue from the transportation of natural gas production generated by neighboring operators. A significant increase in the delivery of gas to sale will result from these repairs and the marketing of transportation services will be pursued. The oil and gas professionals of Landmark have commenced the work over of the 65 existing wells on the property and plans are being formulated for the exploration of the Barnett Shale and other pay zones for the drilling of additional wells.
Updated production reports will be available on the UPDA web site (www.universalpropertydevelopment.com) within the next few days and the site is undergoing a complete redesign to provide real time information, multi-level access and further substantial enhancements and methods of communication in the near future.
As part the reorganization of the company, UPDA Operators, Inc. was established in the second quarter. This subsidiary will be responsible for the operation and management of UPDA's production assets. In conjunction with this subsidiary, UPDA is completing the formation of a well services company to manage all workovers, well maintenance and future drilling programs. This subsidiary will be staffed with very capable oil and gas personnel. The processes to be employed by these two subsidiaries will guarantee the aggressive and consistent pursuit of UPDA's ambitious business plan.
A professional geologist has been added to UPDA's management team and a petroleum engineer has been retained as a consultant to advise on technical matters. An assistant COO has been assigned to monitor each subsidiary and ensure the proper execution of the business plan in the field. New relations have been forged with investment bankers, and other professionals crucial to the company operations.
Preparation of an Independent Reserve Report of UPDA's oil and gas assets has been initiated. This report will significantly impact UPDA's balance sheet and should assist investors and shareholders in determining the market value of our company.
In summary, UPDA has established a scalable management formula for the internal analysis, operation, maintenance, development and expansion of oil and gas fields of all sizes and potential. As a result, prospective acquisitions will be analyzed by a management team including geologists and engineers and completed acquisitions will be managed, serviced and drilled by competent oil and gas professionals. Finally, through the state of the art internet applications in development, all properties will be monitored by a real time system that will allow management to immediately determine the status of all production and operations via the internet.
As shareholders and sentinels of UPDA, the management and board of directors are well aware of the decrease in our company's market cap and we are in diligent pursuit of programs and initiatives designed to improve and enhance shareholder value. From the business and operational side, we have streamlined and reorganized in order to expand control, decrease expenses and maximize revenue. From the communications side, we are building a state of the art website and formulating an extensive public relations program which will be coming into focus during the next two quarters.

Third, we have completed the required quarterly filings with the SEC, and will proceed to file an amended 10-KSB in order to become a fully reporting company traded on the OTC Bulletin Board."

We believe we can look forward to strong top- and bottom-line growth based on our Host-Affiliate network, increased fittings due to the unfolding of our national marketing program, as well as a significant number of re- fittings due to the natural growth of our patients from birth up through 14 years of age.

JERUSALEM, Israel, July 6 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- IDenta Corporation (OTC Pink Sheets: IDTA) today released a comprehensive review of significant company events that it has undertaken since the beginning of 2006. The company's manufacturing, marketing, product R&D, status of international sales and potential revenues were each referenced in the memorandum. The briefing comes just one month after IDenta announced that it was developing a completely new product line, to aid in the detection of extremely dangerous explosive materials. "IDenta started 2006 with a growing international reputation for developing the most reliable, easiest to use, on-site drug detection kits on the market," stated CEO Yaacov Shoham. "Since founding the company, our corporate staff has diligently worked to develop a network of qualified representatives around the world. Their primary mission has been to introduce IDenta's products to a very diverse, very tough to penetrate marketplace, the top security agencies around the globe. We have had, I believe in a relatively short period of time, unprecedented success in this initial mission. We have had to make adjustments along the way, but each and every demonstration has been enthusiastically received. We are continuing to work through the maze of bureaucratic purchasing procedures in over ten countries, and I am confident that significant orders for these products are on the horizon." "Now, based on the impressions we made with the different US Federal Departments, IDenta has expanded its corporate mission to become known as 'a leading developer of products that identify illegal and dangerous substances'. This is very exciting opportunity that could see immediate sales because we already have in place the network of security contacts worldwide who know our company by name and by our excellent reputation." Significant events of 2006 to date include: Drug Detection Product Launches IDenta has introduced two new drug detector products since the beginning of 2006 to bring the company's drug detection product line to six. First - a methamphetamine / amphetamine detector product that can test for the presence of either drug was introduced. Second, at the request of the US Drug Enforcement Agency, IDenta is now in the final stage of releasing a new detector for ketamine or Special K, also known as a date rape drug. Explosive Detector Product Launches In May, IDenta announced it was developing a new product at the request of countries. IDenta's explosive detectors will also be state-of-the-art, on-site detectors with the capability of detecting 5 different families of extremely dangerous explosives including TATP. The new detectors will be packaged in two durable plastic units, very safe to handle, very cheap and expected to be formally introduced for sale within the next three months. (in September 2006) US Market Development In March of 2006, IDenta contracted with the APH Group, www.aphgroup.us, to formally lead the introduction and sales of IDenta's products into the US civilian and retail marketplace. To date, the company has contracted eight sales agents in two states, Georgia and Florida, to introduce and sell IDenta's drug detection product line to security companies, municipalities, schools, universities and Fortune 1000 companies. Retail chain sales and Internet based sales to consumers are also part of the strategic marketing plan being directed by APH. Recently IDenta introduced a new website at www.identa.biz, which will be used to support this sales force, and eventually host an online ordering system for all of IDenta's drug detection products. US and International Sales Activities IDenta recently participated and won tenders for the countries of Panama and India as organized by the US State Department, and is currently waiting on notification of the results from two very large product bids from France and the state of Virginia. The combined orders represent a potential of more than $1 million in sales. Additionally IDenta has made demonstrations, received orders and is expecting volume contract orders from: Poland, Romania, Argentina, Venezuela, Australia, Azerbaijan, Israel, China, United Kingdom, Indonesia and South East Asia. Company introductions and product demonstrations are now targeted for Spain, Portugal, Greece, Russia, Estonia, Lithuania and Latvia Legal and US Government Initiatives Since the beginning of 2006, IDenta has made significant progress working with the Federal government, through its leading US representatives Millennium Security of McLean, Virginia, http://www.millss.com. In March, IDenta made presentations to both the Law Enforcement Caucus and the Methamphetamine Caucus on Capital Hill, and met with Drug Enforcement Agency Laboratory Directors, who agreed to test IDenta's products in the field. Millennium Security also is securing GSA schedule approval for IDenta products and participated very successfully in several security industry conferences and trade shows demonstrating the company's products to the over 5000 law enforcement attendees. Additional conferences are planned for the second half of 2006, in USA, China etc. IDenta is also currently leading a crucial initiative in the State of Virginia that seeks the approval of the results of field drug testing-marijuana/hashish, for admission as legitimate and recognized court evidence. If approved, the use of IDenta's on-site drug detection products will set a new precedent ensuring that the detection work done in the field by law enforcement officers will result in more drug charges being formally made and delivered into the court system. IDenta Manufacturing IDenta has just completed expansion of its manufacturing facilities in Israel to accommodate the production of both the new drug detection and explosive detection products. With these new additions, the company anticipates that it has the potential to more than double its product production without any additional infrastructure expenses. IDenta is also in preliminary negotiations for contracting of a second facility (for product assembly only) to possibly be based in Latin America. Anticipated 2006 Revenues IDenta expects that system-wide sales for all of its product lines 2006 could grow by 250% over 2005. The company does anticipate releasing some preliminary financial information in the second half of 2006 with the successful completion of numerous pending orders and contracts. About IDenta Since 2003, IDenta Corporation has become recognized as a world-wide leader in the development of proprietary on-site drug detection kits. IDenta develops, manufactures and distributes products for the both professional and civil markets which consistently pass the highest qualifications and testing procedures of law enforcement and security agencies around the world. The company has corporate representatives in 20 countries including 15 companies in the US, and 4 companies in Great Britain.

CONX (.42)Launches Diagnostic Test for Aspirin Effectiveness; AspirinWorks(R) Test Kit Now CE Marked for Sale in Europe; Submission to FDA Imminent Jul 6, 2006 8:38:00 AM Copyright Business Wire 2006
DENVER--(BUSINESS WIRE)--July 6, 2006--
Corgenix Medical Corporation (OTCBB: CONX) has released for international sale its newest diagnostic product to be used in the fight against cardiovascular disease. The Company's AspirinWorks(R) Test Kit was launched at the 52nd Annual Scientific and Standardization Committee of the International Society on Thrombosis and Haemostasis, held June 28 through July 1, 2006, in Oslo, Norway.
The AspirinWorks(R) Test Kit is a quantitative laboratory test used to determine levels of 11-dehydrothromboxane B2 in human urine, which aids in the assessment of an individual's response to aspirin therapy. Recent reports indicate that up to 25% of the population may be non-responsive to aspirin's benefits, and less or non-responsive individuals may be as much as three times more likely to die from cardiovascular disease.
"The release of the first AspirinWorks(R) product is a major milestone for our Company," said Douglass Simpson, Corgenix President and CEO. "We have high expectations for this product and its contribution to the general practice of medicine. Interest worldwide is already strong, and we have ramped up our production to meet expected market demands."
The AspirinWorks(R) product was developed in conjunction with Corgenix's strategic partners, Creative Clinical Concepts (CCC), a Denver-based biotechnology company, and Cayman Chemical Company (Cayman), an Ann Arbor, Michigan-based manufacturer of biochemical research products. Corgenix and CCC have previously collaborated with McMaster University (McMaster) in Hamilton, Ontario. Under terms of a license agreement with McMaster, Corgenix and CCC have exclusive worldwide rights to the proprietary technology owned by McMaster for the development, manufacture and marketing of innovative diagnostic tests specific to the pathway by which aspirin acts on platelets.
The McMaster technology includes several patents pending in the United States, Canada and Europe, and has received notice of allowance of the first of the U.S. patent applications. In addition to licensing the McMaster technology, Corgenix also has a U.S. patent pending on the AspirinWorks(R) product.
The new AspirinWorks(R) product will be sold through Corgenix's established international distribution network and, as the product is not currently approved or cleared by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA), the Company intends to submit a Pre-Market Notification to the FDA within the next 10 days.

Corgenix is a leader in the development and manufacturing of specialized diagnostic kits for immunology disorders, vascular diseases and bone and joint disorders.

PECB .19- Pet Ecology Brands, Inc. Continues Expansion of Its International Distribution Thursday July 6, 9:00 am ET
Company Announces Major Orders Received From Distributors in the Netherlands and Israel
DALLAS, TX--(MARKET WIRE)--Jul 6, 2006 -- Pet Ecology Brands, Inc. (Other OTC:PECB.PK - News) -- www.petecology.com -- announced today the finalization of purchase orders and distributor agreements in two new international markets, which continues the Company's market penetration into Europe, the Middle East, and Asia.
Pet Ecology Brands, Inc. recently received its first order from Pro-Animal, one of the largest distributors of pet products in the Netherlands. The initial order received from Pro Animal was for 1,600 4-lb bags of Scientific Professional(TM) Cat Litter. Pro-Animal has estimated that it will be placing reorders of a similar or larger quantity every sixty days. This relationship will give Pet Ecology placement of its various products throughout the entire country.
The Company also reached a distributorship agreement and received its first purchase order from Vetex-Animal, one of the largest pet products distributors in Israel. The initial order received was for 2,520 4-lb bags of Scientific Professional(TM) Cat Litter, and will be sold to retailers located throughout the country. Vetex is expected to reorder in similar quantities every 30 to 60 days.
International sales are being coordinated by three master brokers, in conjunction with the in-house sales team of Pet Ecology. These outside sales groups handle pet products in their spheres of expertise and influence: Europe, Asia/Pacific Rim, and Central/South America. Each of these international representatives has represented pet product interests in those areas for over seven years and each speaks multiple languages. These groups are headed by Tradewinds Global, who has been responsible for the rapid penetration of the Company's products in the Asian and Pacific Rim markets.
Pet Ecology Brands, Inc. CEO Ralph Steckel, in describing the increased activity in the international marketplace, stated: "These new orders are the combination of superior products and an excellent international sales team that we have established. We have found the international market to be very receptive to our line of pet products that concentrate on the health of pets, while also protecting the environment. Those two themes, which drive our product development, are major concerns for pet owners, whether located in the US or in the Netherlands and Israel. Although the orders that we received today from Pro-Animal and Vetex are sizable, they represent a continuing compounding revenue stream for Pet Ecology, because of the size and frequency of the reorders of our products that each distributor has told us would be forthcoming. We have in a period of only sixty days now penetrated eight major international markets, and we expect to announce in the near future additional sizable international orders. Our goal is to achieve significant initial orders and reorders in over thirty international markets by the end of 2006."
Pet Ecology Brands, Inc. has developed a revolutionary patented cat litter that destroys urine odor, clumps, and is earth-friendly. Scientific Professional(TM) Cat Litter is ultra-lightweight and convenient to use (3lbs works like 21lbs of clay/sand based products); it is 100% flushable and safe for sewer and septic tank systems. It is completely safe for cats and our environment, and does not contain any sodium bentonite, as used in competing brands. The design helps to protect the landfills, and yet does everything that clay litters do... and more. It has the ability to help indicate certain diseases commonly occurring in cats. The technique used is similar to that found in Merck's Veterinarian Manual. However, this litter not only warns of possible illness, but may also help indicate how far along the illness may be by the color the litter changes to, thereby providing the pet owner significant additional benefits and an early warning system concerning the cat's health. Scoop-Lite® provides the same benefits as Scientific Professional Cat Litter without the sickness indicator.
Pet Ecology's K-9 Fat Free Dog Treats(TM) are the first fat free treats on the market that meet the standards of the U.S. Department of Agriculture, and offer dog owners an effective means to provide their pets with a non-fat tasty treat. They are also cholesterol free and sodium free. According to U.S. News & World Report, "the number one health problem for dogs is obesity." Today, dogs are fed fat rich food and treats, and often get significantly less exercise than required to maintain an ideal weight and healthy condition. Overweight dogs are more prone to serious injury, skeletal stress, and the same complications that people experience with significant weight gain via fat rich diets, ranging from heart and lung problems, to skin and kidney diseases, to circulatory and immune system issues. Vit-A-Dog Fat Free Treats (soon to be available) are enriched with vitamins D & E, and will be available in chicken, beef and liver flavors.
SAFE HARBOR STATEMENT
Safe Harbor Statement under the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995: The statements, other than the statements of historical facts, may be deemed to contain forward-looking statements with respect to events, the occurrence of which involves risk and uncertainties, including, without limitation, demand and competition for the company's products and services, the availability to the company of adequate financing to support its anticipated activities, the ability of the company to generate cash flow from operations and the ability of the company to manage its operations. As statements regarding future events concern management's estimates of future results of operations, and as these estimates are based on many elements beyond management's control, differences from management's estimates may occur, and such differences may be material.

UTYW .102 - Unity Wireless Closes Acquisition of Celerica Ltd. Thursday July 6, 9:00 am ET
BURNABY, BC--(MARKET WIRE)--Jul 6, 2006 -- Unity Wireless Corporation (OTC BB:UTYW.OB - News), a developer of wireless systems and coverage-enhancement solutions, closed its acquisition of Celerica Ltd., an Israel-based developer of coverage enhancement solutions for 2G and 3G wireless networks, effective July 4, 2006.
ADVERTISEMENT Ilan Kenig, President and CEO of Unity Wireless, commented, "We are pleased to announce the closing of this transaction and welcome the Celerica employees into the Unity Wireless family. We are looking forward to completing our strategic acquisition plan, previously announced May 16, 2006, over the next several weeks and presenting a much stronger company to our market."
The acquisition of Celerica brings to Unity Wireless a unique line of coverage enhancement solutions that are being used today by operators of UMTS 3G networks in Europe and Asia. Often referred to in the industry as "distributed antenna systems" or "remote RF heads" mainly utilizing unlicensed free space optics (FSO) and 5.8Ghz microwave links, these systems allow operators to cost-effectively expand their coverage footprint by remotely distributing the capacity of centrally located base stations. In addition, several elements within the Celerica product lines are also marketable as stand-alone products.
"As a result of this transaction, we are seeing the potential of significantly increasing our opportunities with existing customers," commented Nissim Atias, CEO of Celerica Ltd. "We are very excited about this transaction and looking forward to play a role in a much bigger organization."
Celerica had audited 2005 revenues of US$2.2 million, a loss of US$6.1 million, and had positive net assets of US$2.9 million at December 31, 2005. The company has had the backing of an international group of venture capital investors whose investments in the development of Celerica's coverage enhancement products exceeded US$30 million.
"Restructuring Celerica is somewhat complete and the capital burn-rate that existed prior to our transaction has been reduced significantly. As we have said previously, the transactions currently underway are expected to create greater economies of scale across the entire operations infrastructure and are pleased with our efforts made so far," added Dallas Pretty, CFO of Unity Wireless.
Terms of the acquisition were unchanged from the initial terms announced on February 10, 2006 whereby Unity Wireless acquired Celerica Ltd. for preferred shares that upon conversion will represent 20 million shares of common stock. Additional information may be found on Form 8-K's filed by Unity Wireless with respect to this transaction.

ANTV Launches New Reality TV Show for Finding and Fixing Up Old C rs: 'Sheriff Hege's What's in the Garage' ANTV Launches New Reality TV Show for Finding and Fixing Up Old Cars: 'Sheriff H ge's What's in the Garage'
>CLEARWATER, Fla., July 6, 2006 (PRIMEZONE) -- Adrenaline Entertainment, Inc. (Pink Sheets:ADNL), which produces Adrenaline Nation TV, the leading channel for cutting edge independent music TV, innovative independent and short films and adrenaline sports for the highly coveted 18-49 demographic, today announced that it has teamed with retired Sheriff Gerald Hege to launch a new reality show for finding and fixing up classic cars: "Sheriff Hege's What's in the Garage?" The ANTV channel currently reaches 28 million homes across the U.S.
In each episode, Sheriff Gerald Hege, once known as America's toughest Sheriff, goes undercover to discover the automotive gems hidden in old garages across America. Sheriff Hege hits the highways of America to find old cars just waiting to be fixed up. In true reality show fashion, he interviews the cars' owners on the spot about the history of the car.
"We love our cars in this country, and most of us end up with old cars that we put off restoring due to the demands of raising families and everyday life," said Sheriff Hege, who directs, co-produces and hosts the show. "Most of the car shows that you see on TV today will take one lucky person's car and spend $150,000 to fix it up for them for free. In the real world, that doesn't happen. We set out to find these treasures and we show the viewers how to find, buy, sell and fix them up, all for a price that is more affordable to the average person. The show is really more about the owners' stories than the cars themselves."
Sheriff Hege shows viewers how to spot likely sites where an old car might be found, and he gives them pointers on making an offer to buy a car and restoring it to its former glory. Guests on the show range from NASCAR Hall of Fame member Junior Johnson to anyone with a garage that looks like it could be housing a vehicle. All of the stories are told with the down home delivery of "an old country boy who has been to town a few times."
"We are very excited to co-produce and develop the 'What's in the Garage' series with Sheriff Hege," said Keith Dressel, CEO of Adrenaline Nation Entertainment, Inc. "He brings a unique perspective to each story, having served the public as a Sheriff for so many years. He does a great job of highlighting the stories that these cars and their owners tell in a lighthearted and entertaining manner, weaving in the human interest stories for a cross section of Americana. There is nothing like it on TV today."
Sheriff Hege has been involved in reality TV programming for many years. He did the Cell Block F segment on Court TV, one of the first reality TV shows interviewing prisoners in jail. He is the only law man outside of the state of Tennessee ever awarded the Buford Pusser Walking Tall award. He was named law enforcement officer of the year from the American Legion in North Carolina and was also given a Veteran of Foreign Wars Award. Sheriff Hege has made appearances on Court TV, the Today Show, 20/20, Larry King Live, Inside Edition and America's Most Wanted. He has also been filmed for TV programs from Germany, Australia and the U.K. He also hosts a weekly talk show on WEOM 103.1 FM in Thomasville, North Carolina, that covers current events, politics, down-home humor and old cars.

July 6th, 2006 Obasanjo to commission sickle cell drug factory today
A local factory that would immediately commence the production of NICOSAN- an anti-sickling drug, will be commissioned today by President Olusegun Obsanjo.
Ayodele Coker, Director General of SHESTCO who disclosed this in Abuja yesterday explained that NICONSAN is a drug first developed by the National Institute for Pharmaceutical Research and Development (NIPRD) for the management of sickle cell disease.
He said that NICOSAN consists of a mixture of extracts from four tropical plants, some of which are cultivated and found in the wild both within and outside Nigeria Coker stressed that all necessary precautions had been taken to ensure safety of the products as well as continuity in the production.
According to him, the Gamma irradiation facility is to be used for food preservation, sterilisation of pharmaceutical and medical devices, as well as polymerisation and other industrial applications.
Cker said that "the drug, to be used in the treatment of sickle cell diseases, is being produced by a pharmaceutical company-Xechem-Nigeria and has been tested locally and international at Philadelphia Children’s Hospital in the United States."
The drug which Coker said has been approved by the National Agency for Food and Drug Administration and Control (NAFDAC) is also been recognised by the World Health Organisation (WHO) for the treatment of sickle cell diseases .
Coker explained that the Gamma Irradation facility is for food security and preservation of agricultural products which will cut down the loss from waste of harvested crops experienced annually stressing "more than 55% of our harvested crops are wasted thus the need for the facility and we want to cut down on this loss".
"WE are confident this will help in the reduction of prices of foodstuffs all year round. With the Gamma Irradiation Facility, you can delay the ripening period period, retain freshness and admittance of exported agriculture products in the markets. Products that go through the facility will be 100% safe for human consumption as there is no room for error.
