Sector 10 designs and builds public emergency response systems that provide immediate access to life-saving resources in the crucial hours immediately following an emergency event.

Capital Group Communications (CGC), headquartered in the San Francisco Bay area, specializes in strategic, streamlined communications services aimed at increasing awareness directed at Brokers, Analysts, Institutions and Fund Managers. CGC utilizes a long-term, collaborative business model and accepts only restricted stock, in lieu of cash fees, for its services.

Sector 10's focus is on predeployed emergency response systems. Predeployment is the advance placement of resources needed in an emergency event. These unique products represent a new product category for brand development and promise to fundamentally change the way emergency response is approached. As support services to its core product line, Sector 10 is providing advertising and messaging services and leasing options to its customers, which can off-set or entirely remove the cost of installing a system.

Gener8Xion Signs Three Picture International Deal With Media 8 PR Newswire "US Press Releases "
Gener8Xion Signs Three Picture International Deal With Media 8PR Newswire "US Press Releases "
LOS ANGELES, Feb. 6 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Gener8Xion Entertainment, Inc. (OTC Bulletin Board: GNXE), announced today it has entered into a three picture deal with Media 8 Entertainment regarding the exclusive international sales of theatrically released "Noelle" and two other soon to be identified projects.
Under the terms of the agreement, Media 8 Entertainment will handle international distribution and licensing for Gener8Xion's enchanting family drama, "Noelle", which features David Wall as writer, director and producer as well as the star lead. Wall plays Father Jonathan Keene -- a cold, impatient Catholic priest who arrives in a tiny fishing village the week before Christmas to do what he does best: shut down a dying parish. But things take an unexpected turn when he becomes entangled in the lives of the village's eccentric characters, including their beautiful librarian, the childlike priest he is displacing, and the magical experience of Mrs. Worthington's legendary Christmas Party, where everyone is welcome and anything is possible.
"Noelle," which was released in theaters nationwide in 4th quarter of 2007, was a hit among movie-goers and critics nationwide. The two other Films in the deal are scheduled to be announced later this year.
Commenting on the announcement, Matthew Crouch, Chairman and CEO of Gener8Xion Entertainment, Inc. said, "Media 8 is an aggressive international distributor and strong partner. They have a proven track record on both sides of the Entertainment business. Their ability to sell effectively into foreign markets made them a perfect fit for Gener8Xion."
Carlos D. De Mattos, President and Member of the Board of Gener8Xion added, "As the appetite for quality Family/Faith based motion pictures, documentaries and television programming grows here in the United States, other countries throughout the international community are following suit. We are beginning to see stronger demands from countries in Europe and Asia, especially countries who have much stricter protocol as it relates to censorship issues."
"Gener8Xion continues to proactively acquire more and more quality films, and is being recognized as the depot for all things family and faith driven. Gener8Xion has a close relationship with their audience and market demographic, and Media 8 is very pleased with our ongoing relationship with the Company," said Stewart Hall, President of Media 8 Entertainment.

As a result the Company now owns a 33 1/3% gross working interest in the Prophet River "A" and Prophet River "B" lands subject to a 2.5% overriding and government royalties. This purchase has also eliminated an original farm-in requirement to spud a Prophet River B lands well by March 31st, 2008.
Also in the Prophet River area, Petro Canada has exercised a right of first refusal on two sections adjoining the Company's lands to the southeast of the Company's d-60-E Mississippian discovery well. Accordingly the Prophet River land holding interests have been reduced to approximately nineteen square miles from twenty-one.

THE a-38-A/94-G-15 TRIASSIC HALFWAY DEVELOPMENT WELL
The Company has contributed its share of the costs to complete the production tie-in of the recently drilled a-38-A Triassic Halfway development well. The well will be tied in to the Trutch jointly owned production infrastructure and is expected to commence production in mid to late February 2008. The Company has a 9% gross working interest in this well and a 15% interest in the project's pipeline infrastructure.
CANADA GAS CORP.

Znomics Advances Drug Discovery Efforts in Zebrafish With Launch of New Human Disease Library PrimeNewswire "PrimeNewswire "
Znomics Advances Drug Discovery Efforts in Zebrafish With Launch of New Human Disease LibraryPrimeNewswire "PrimeNewswire "
PORTLAND, Ore., Feb. 6, 2008 (PRIME NEWSWIRE) -- Znomics, Inc. (OTCBB:ZNOM), a pioneer in the development of the zebrafish as a vertebrate genetic platform to accelerate drug discovery, today announced it has achieved mutations in 193 key genes, representing nearly 50 percent of the known "druggable" disease genes. The company expects that information derived from these disrupted genes and others from its ZeneMark(r) library of mutant fish lines will advance its search for new drug targets and new lead compounds for complex human diseases.
"Today we are launching our Human Disease Library," said David Ransom, Director of Genetics and Functional Genomics at Znomics. "Ultimately, this library, which is a subset of the ZeneMark library of zebrafish strains, will contain mutations in the majority of known human disease genes. These strains can be used to model complex human diseases in the zebrafish. Of the approximately 1,500 gene mutations known to cause disease in man, 368 occur in genes encoding druggable targets, such as receptors, enzymes and channels. The collection of strains in the Human Disease Library represents mutations in the zebrafish genes corresponding to more than half of human genes that are both disease genes and potentially druggable."
"This tool gives Znomics' scientists an ability to model a vast array of different human diseases," said Roger Cone, Chief Scientific Officer at Znomics. "The subset of druggable disease gene mutations will also give us a unique ability to validate novel drug targets and identify the unique drug site-of-action."
Another milestone reached by the company includes 14,000 separately archived sperm samples which contain more than 11,000 mutations in known zebrafish genes, roughly half of the genome. Zebrafish share 80% - 90% of the same genes as humans.
"The ZeneMark library is a remarkable achievement," said Jianxin Wang, Director of Bioinformatics at Znomics. "It has resulted from melding advanced biological science with informatics technology, integrating innovation and hard work both at the bench and at the computer. The library has invaluable utility for the study of gene functions and will ultimately speed up disease gene discoveries and the development of new, innovative drug compounds." CONTACT: Znomics, Inc.
