Forward-Looking Statements. This news release contains "forward-looking statements," as that term is defined in Section 27A of the United States Securities Act of 1933 and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. Statements about the expected future prospects of our business and all other statements in this release other than historical facts, constitute forward-looking statements. You can identify forward-looking statements because they contain words such as "believes," "expects," "may," "will," "would," "should," "seeks," "approximately," "intends," "plans," "estimates," or "anticipates" or similar expressions which concern our strategy, plans or intentions. All statements we make relating to estimated and projected earnings, margins, costs, expenditures, cash flows, growth rates and financial results are forward-looking statements. In addition, we, through our senior management, from time to time make forward-looking public statements concerning our expected future operations and performance and other developments. All of these forward-looking statements are subject to risks and uncertainties that may change at any time, and, therefore, our actual results may differ materially from those we expected. We derive most of our forward-looking statements from our operating budgets and forecasts, which are based upon many detailed assumptions. While we believe that our assumptions are reasonable, we caution that it is very difficult to predict the impact of known factors, and, of course, it is impossible for us to anticipate all factors that could affect our actual results. Some of the factors that we believe could affect our results include: general economic and market conditions, including the lingering effects of the economic slowdown and services revenue; the overall condition of the bank card industry, including the effect of any further consolidation among financial services firms; the regulatory, credit and market risks associated with our operations; the integration of acquired businesses, the performance of our businesses; the effect of war, terrorism or catastrophic events; the timing and magnitude of sales; the timing and scope of technological advances; the ability to retain and attract customers and key personnel; and the ability to obtain patent protection and avoid patent-related liabilities in the context of a rapidly developing legal framework for software and business-method patents. The factors described in this paragraph and other factors that may affect our business or future financial results and when applicable, will be discussed in our filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission. We assume no obligation to update any written or oral forward-looking statement made by us or on our behalf as a result of new information, future events or other factors.

UCPI (.66) Oil Prospect with a Potential of $9,620,000 Gross Production Business Editors / Energy Editors
HOUSTON--(BUSINESS WIRE)--July 12, 2006-- Unicorp, Inc. (OTCBB:UCPI) announced today that it has entered into an agreement to drill an approximate 6,800 foot well to test the Upper Tuscaloosa formation in Greene County, Mississippi. Unicorp will be the designated operator of the project and will have a 60% working interest and an approximate 46.8% net revenue interest in the well.
The Lee Walley Well No. 1 was drilled and plugged and abandoned in 1983. The electric log indicated an apparent oil pay at the top of the Tuscaloosa formation which was confirmed by sidewall cores which indicated a good show of oil. The well lies between the North Sand Hill field to the north and the Flat Branch Field to the south. 80 acres have been leased around the prospect. The Unicorp well will be located approximately 75 feet from the Lee Walley Well No. 1.
Based upon cumulative production figures of similar wells in the North Sand Hill Field and the Flat Branch Field, it is estimated that the Unicorp well could have 130,000 barrels of oil reserves which equates to $9,620,000 in gross production at today's prices of $74 per barrel. There is no guarantee that this well will be successful or that these numbers will be achieved due to production and/or price fluctuations. Unicorp's net revenue interest would equate to 46.8% of the gross production.
"This well is located outside our normal area of operations, however, based upon the projected reserves and low cost to drill the new well it makes economic sense to participate in this prospect," stated Arthur Ley, COO of Unicorp. "This prospect, as with our other prospects, meets our corporate criteria of participating in projects which provide the company the maximum amount of value with a minimal amount of risk, and if successful will provide a significant increase in shareholder value."
About Unicorp
Unicorp, Inc is primarily engaged in the acquisition, development, exploration and production of crude oil and natural gas. Its focus is on aggressively acquiring working interests in crude oil and natural gas properties with the intent of exploration and development or by enhancing production through the use of modern development techniques such as horizontal drilling, satellite technology and 3-D seismic. The company's goal is to achieve a high return on its investment by limiting its up-front acquisition costs, by quickly developing its acquisitions and by practicing a sound and smart approach to oil and gas exploration and development.
Safe Harbor Statement
This press release contains statements that may constitute forward-looking statements, including the company's ability to successfully acquire oil and gas properties and drill commercial wells.

EGPI/Firecreek, Inc. Announces Reserve Report/Studies for Ten Mile Draw Project Expansion Plans; Study Evaluates Potential for Multi-Well Drilling Program via COMTEX
EGPI/Firecreek, Inc. (OTCBB:EFCR) Dennis R. Alexander, Chairman and CFO, announced today plans to increase the initial 5-well drilling program. He also announced the results of an independent reserve report study regarding the Reserves at the Ten Mile Draw field located in the Green River Basin of Wyoming.
EGPI/Firecreek and Newport Oil Corporation are joint venture partners on three wells in the Ten Mile Draw (TMD) and are presently negotiating for the drilling of 11 additional wells within the core area starting sometime in the Company's third quarter and ending sometime within the Company's 2007 first quarter. The Company is confident that this presence will increase EGPI/ Firecreek's working and net revenue interests via its Firecreek Petroleum unit. Mr. Alexander stated, "Although our initial 5-well drilling program is certainly viable, certain opportunities have recently arisen which lead us to believe that with appropriate funding, we will be able to expand our drilling program from 5 to 11 wells in the TMD area."
EGPI/Firecreek and Newport Oil Corporation have confirmed that the latest report from independent consultants Allen and Crouch Petroleum Engineers of Casper, Wyoming are projecting ultimate reserves for the 11 well drilling program to yield an additional 6.5 BCF (Billion Cubic Feet) of natural gas from the Lewis Sand formation and 17.6 BCF from the Almond Sand Formation. The report concludes that the total unrisked Proven Undeveloped (PUD) reserves for these two zones are estimated at 24.1 BCF plus an additional 146,976 STB (Stock Tank Barrels) of oil or gas condensate. These figures do not include the PUD reserves in the Coal Bed Methane zone found in each well. Those reserves will be separately evaluated and reported at a later date.
John Bruynell, President of Newport Oil Corp. and the Project Field Operator for the Ten Mile Draw joint venture stated, "A tremendous effort has been made in the last several months to get us to this stage. We are not surprised with the engineering firms reserve report and feel that this is just a start of the type of program expansion in the TMD that I believe will substantially increase our natural gas production levels over the course of the next several months."
The state of Wyoming has been experiencing a sudden economic boom with the resurgence of gas exploration and drilling in its state. For more information on the dynamic growth currently being experienced by Wyoming please go to:

GoldSpring, Inc. Reaches Settlement With Second Defendant in State Court Lawsuit via COMTEX
July 13, 2006
GOLD HILL, Nev., Jul 13, 2006 (PRIMEZONE via COMTEX News Network) --
GoldSpring, Inc. (OTCBB:GSPG) announced today that it has reached a settlement with another defendant in its Arizona lawsuit. The first settlement was with Seth Shaw, as announced on June 26, 2006. This second settlement is with one of the other main defendants in the Company's Arizona Superior Court lawsuit, against several defendants, including its founder, Steve Parent. The Company has agreed to settle its claims against this second defendant pursuant to, among others, the following binding terms: 1) total payment by the defendant to GoldSpring of $100,000 with $20,000 to be paid on or before July 31, 2006, and the remaining balance of $80,000 to be paid on or before September 10, 2006; 2) dismissal by GoldSpring of the pending litigation against the defendant with prejudice (upon payment in full of the $100,000); 3) agreement that the settlement shall in no way be construed as an admission of liability or fault on the part of the defendant; and 4) mutual releases by each of GoldSpring and the defendant to the other from liability related to the pending lawsuit. This second settlement helps to narrow the focus of the case with the remaining major defendants consisting primarily of Steve Parent and Ron Haswell.
In discussing this success in the litigation, Rob Faber, President and CEO of GoldSpring, stated, "We believe this is another fair settlement on terms which materially benefit the Company, and we are continuing to make steps toward the goal of satisfactory resolution of the balance of this pending litigation in an expeditious manner."
GoldSpring, Inc. is a North American precious metals mining company with an operating gold and silver mine in northern Nevada. The Company was formed in mid-2003 and acquired the Plum Mine property in November 2003. In the Company's relatively short history, it secured permits, built an infrastructure and brought the Plum project into production. During 2005, the Company acquired additional properties around the Plum project in northern Nevada, expanding its footprint and creating opportunities for exploration. GoldSpring is an emerging company, looking to build on its success through the acquisition of other mineral properties in North America with reserves and exploration potential that can be efficiently put into near-term production. The Company's objectives are to increase production, increase reserves through exploration and acquisitions, expand its footprint at the Plum mine, and maximize cash flow and return for its shareholders.
The Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 provides a "safe harbor" for forward-looking statements. Certain information included in this communication (as well as information included in oral statements or other written statements made or to be made by GoldSpring) contains statements that are "forward-looking," as defined in Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act, such as statements relating to the future anticipated direction of the high technology and energy industries, plans for future expansion, various business development activities, planned capital expenditures, future funding sources, anticipated sales growth, mining capability and potential contracts. Such forward-looking information involves important risks and uncertainties, which include the risk factors disclosed in our most recent Form 10-KSB filed on April 15, 2005, that could significantly affect anticipated results in the future and, accordingly, such results may differ from those expressed in any forward-looking statements made by or on behalf of GoldSpring. These risks and uncertainties include, but are not limited to, those relating to development and expansion activities, dependence on existing management, financial activities, domestic and global economic conditions, changes in federal or state tax laws and market competition factors. These and other factors, which could cause actual results to differ materially, are discussed in more detail in GoldSpring's filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Forward-looking statements include statements regarding our expectations, beliefs, intentions or strategies regarding the future and can be identified by forward-looking words such as "anticipate," "believe," "could," "estimate," "expect," "intend," "may," "should," "will," and "would" or similar words. We assume no obligation to update the information included in this press release, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.

Distribution is slated to begin in October 2006.
Interactive CD video magazines will be produced by iMedia and distributed as inserts in the New York Daily News on the last Sunday of each month.

Previously, iMedia announced its first strategic partnership with the Dallas Morning News, a Belo (NYSE: BLC) Company, and launched its first issue of Hollywood Previews(tm) in Dallas on April 30 of this year. This partnership with the Daily News will increase the monthly circulation of Hollywood Previews(tm) to more than 1.5 million copies, positioning the iMagazine as one of America's most widely circulated entertainment publications.
"This contract represents a major milestone for us, as New York City is a principal advertising market in this country, as well as one of the world's most influential and exciting hubs for music, movies and entertainment," said David MacEachern, CEO of iMedia. "The Daily News is a major, top-tier newspaper that attracts readers of all ages and demographics, and we believe this strategic partnership agreement will allow iMedia to continue to expand our reach and deliver a supercharged multimedia experience to every Daily News reader."

In addition to creating a unified Sales and Marketing effort and establishing a company wide Administration Division, the new organization creates a Data Solutions Division that will be lead by Daniel Nagala, previous President of UTSI International. The Data Solutions Division will handle all current and future consulting and professional services contracts that the company is awarded. Significant current clients in this category include Shell Pipeline Company LP, Chevron, BP, New York City Transit Authority, and Kinder Morgan Energy Partners, among many others.

That system will initially be applied to a wide range of applications involving oil and gas production and pipeline, electric energy, water/waste water handling, and physical security industries.
In conjunction with announcing this reorganization, Jim Nelson, President and Chief Operating Officer of Diverse Networks, Inc. stated, "We are building a world class company to provide a wide range of services within the M2M market and I feel this new organization will allow such integration to proceed in orderly manner. Daniel Nagala and George Wren are both proven executives that bring a high level of experience and ability to the company and I am completely confident that they will continue to apply those attributes to building our new company. In addition, we hope to continue our company's growth through acquisition and believe this reorganization better positions JKRI to seek and evaluate potential opportunities."

This additional viewership is in addition to their previous viewer numbers, which reached well above 15 million. The new outlets carrying the network are as follows: Verizon FIOS (Channel 34 in DC/31 in MD/31 in VA), Adelphia (Channel 25 in Spotsylvania/Richmond/Stafford), Dish Network (Channel 53 or 8084), Metromedia (Channel 18 in King George County) and DirecTV (Channel 53 or 971).

Together we are redefining the multimedia distribution paradigm while using the heightened exposure as a vehicle for generating alternative revenue. With our 50% share of the revenue we generate along with RHN, imagine the advertising dollars we are in a position to generate in the DC area alone. As we continue to amass viewers, we continue to strengthen our financial position and projection."

Now that we possess a substantial viewing audience we are in a more favorable position to negotiate our rates for commercials with higher echelon ad agencies as well as corporate sponsors directly. This gives us a huge competitive advantage because our unit cost and profit margin become larger and more consistent than in our previous position. We will continue to work hand in hand with RMD on our expansion into new markets and are prepared to enter into joint ventures with them on all territories they bring RHN into. Giorgio Costonis, his staff, and associates understand aggressive expansion of marketplaces and that is exactly where our management's thinking is right now. I am sure we will continue to do great things together that will benefit both companies for years to come."

BSLM (.325) HATTIESBURG, MS -- (MARKET WIRE) -- 07/13/06 -- There is a significant profit increase planned for Bio-Solutions Manufacturing, Inc. (OTCBB: BSLM) (FRANKFURT: B2T) by combining the recently acquired Bio-Extraction Services, Inc. (provider of the technology for extracting oil and grease from food service facilities' grease traps (interceptors) and municipal collection systems), with the acquisition of Bioremediation Services, Inc. and its growing network of franchisees.
Franchisees' earnings in the past have been derived from services they provided to food service facilities for treatment of grease traps and drain lines and municipal sewer mains, lift stations, and treatment plants. The oil and grease waste derived from the commercial cooking establishments is divided into two categories: yellow and brown grease. There is typically twice as much brown grease per restaurant as yellow grease, and BSLM technology can handle both types.
All existing franchisees will be required to upgrade their franchise agreement in order to participate in the Bio-Extractor program. With the addition of the Bio-Extractor, each grease trap and lift station can become a small individual oil well, bringing additional profits to the franchisee and the Corporation -- with relatively little add-on costs. Bio-Solutions will revamp its franchise agreement for all new franchisees allowing them to participate in the profits gained from bio-diesel feed stock extraction, and this represents a significant potential increase in revenues for both Bio-Solutions and its network of franchisees.
According to Michael Silverman, President of Bioremediation Services, Inc., "This represents a major uplift for Bio-Solutions -- one that is sure to build corporate and franchise revenues. The BioExtractor opens the door for franchisees to own and operate their own individual oil wells, extracting the oils and grease from food service facilities and municipal treatment facilities that can be used to produce bio-diesel and other value-added products. This is a great opportunity, and I look forward to the expansion of our company in this field."
The combined potential in the United States for bio-diesel production is in excess of 1,650,000,000 (1.65 billion) gallons per year and growing rapidly -- according to U.S.Government statistics. This production is of major significance in accordance with President Bush's plan to combat high gas prices -- see fact sheet at www.whitehouse.gov/news/releases/2006/04/20060425-2.html. BSLM, with its technology for extracting oil and grease (feed stock for bio-diesel) is gearing up to become a major player in this industry. David S. Bennett, President and CEO of BSLM, states: "Our corporation is striving to fulfill its mission to help combat the destructive agents that pollute and harm our environment, in addition to helping America lower its dependence on foreign oil."
Bio-Solutions Corporate Office anticipates hosting a major training session for new franchisees and recruits in September 2006.

Patricia Ross-Gruden, president and CEO of eFoodSafety.com Inc. (OTCBB: EFSF), announced today that eFoodSafety.com Inc. confirms reports that the bird flu virus has spread from human to human.
A report from Indonesia stated that a woman contracted the H5N1 virus, spread it to her 10-year-old son, and five other blood relatives. All but one who contracted the virus had died.
On Nov. 7, 2005, Lee Jong-Wook, leader of the World Health Organization (WHO), stated, "It is only a matter of time before an avian-flu virus -- most likely H5N1 -- acquires the ability to be transmitted from human to human, sparking the outbreak of human pandemic influenza. We don't know when this will happen. But we do know that it will happen."
The recent findings in Indonesia provide proof that the bird flu virus has now inevitably begun to spread between humans.
In the June 24, 2006, edition of the Washington Times, United Nations Bird Flu Chief David Nabarro said this is a "vivid reminder of the need to keep a very close watch on what the virus is doing." A pandemic of bird flu would be an unprecedented disaster. Economically, the World Bank warned that a bird flu pandemic could cause global gross domestic product to drop by 2 percent -- or about $800 billion a year. It is difficult to estimate a reasonable death count, but WHO forecasts have consistently remained at 2 million to 7.4 million deaths worldwide."
Ongoing testing of eFoodSafety.com Inc.'s bird flu formulation -- Citroxin -- is currently under way in this Far Eastern region. Gruden commented, "We specifically began testing in Thailand to be as close as possible to the 'hot spot' where this potential pandemic could break out."
About eFoodSafety.com Inc.
