Pulmo BioTech Inc. is a venture capital company focused solely on medical research, development and marketing. They are dedicated to bringing revolutionary new medical techniques and technologies to those in need of medical solutions. Recently, Pulmo BioTech announced the possibility of a new application for its PulmoBind molecular imaging technology.

Pulmo believes that there are several useful applications for its product line in conjunction with traditional MRI scanners. The company announced that it has had preliminary success with also tagging its molecular imaging candidates with a magnetic resonance contrast agent. If this work is successful, it will allow the medical community to use MRI scanners for lung vascular studies and potentially increase the addressable market for PulmoBind.

The PulmoBind molecular imaging technology by itself is designed to allow the imaging of the vascular system of the lungs by a diagnostic clinician and thus enable the diagnosis of pulmonary embolism, pulmonary hypertension and lung inflammatory conditions. These products have the potential to completely replace the conventional technology being used for a nuclear medicine-based diagnosis of several medical problems. Based on the preliminary trials and the rapid pace at which medicine has been advancing in the last decade, Pulmo BioTech Incorporated should remain on the radar of smart investors.

SuperLattice Power, Inc. (OTCBB: SLAT) is becoming an emerging leader in the area of power production with their development of superLattice cathode material for use in lithium-ion rechargeable batteries, which significantly increases operating voltage range and energy density. The company has been in the developmental stages of creating a new lithium-ion polymer battery that is made up of a new cathode material with a superlattice structure, allowing electric vehicles to be driven over 200 miles compared to the current range of 120 to 140 miles, as the battery operates in a wide voltage range of 4.3V to 2V.

The company’s newly priced cathode material, referred to as superlattice structure, is ready to be produced in large quantities. Their innovative process can be used to produce nano-phase pure superlattice structure, as well as any commercial cathode material available worldwide. The superlattice structure is a hexagonal structure and can accommodate more lithium and more energy. The transition metals were carefully selected to make Superlattice cathode materials safe, environmentally friendly and less expensive.

It is rare for newly invented materials to be tested in large-scale production, since most are only tested within laboratories for small scale production. Superlattice Power anticipates transfering all potential material in industrial levels and using them in high-degree battery production, therefore testing not only the materials but the additional properties of the battery so that they can bring potential battery materials from laboratory scale to industrial scale. They have already commenced in-house production of all superlattice structure in a higher density and found a way to optimize the process parameters suitable for large batteries, which will be used in the field of uninterruptible power supply (UPS)”.

Currently, the battery division of Superlattice Power is conducting research on a series of cathode materials with superlattice structure. The goal of this research is to model different cathode structures and optimize process parameters to obtain a single phase and pure material to fit the industrial scale. The company’s research and development team has successfully synthesized a cathode material with a superlattice oxide structure based on manganese, cobalt, nickel and titanium. During production of the first batch, 100kg of phase-pure material was produced.

Money in many households is a hot-button issue when it comes to children. When do you approach the subject and how? Speaking as a mother myself, this question has come up for me. I’ll take a few moments to give you my insights on the subject.

As money is so ingrained in every aspect of our daily lives, our children get an unconscious picture of what money is by observation. How we deal with money will invariably rub off on them. So first take a close look at how you handle it. If you are constantly saying “We don’t have enough money,” then that message of scarcity will permeate their understanding of what money is. Take a look at how your parents handled money and you might start to see a pattern. So change the way you see and interact with money to be the best role model you can to give your children a healthy relationship with it.

So first and foremost – calm down! Don’t let emotions enter your reactions about money. Children may not understand the words you’re saying, but they will understand the emotions behind them clear as day. Children under 4 are still forming the basis of their understanding of the world, and heated emotional outbursts about money will sink into that world view. So calm down and do not allow yourself to become emotional about money. Stressing over money, the lack of money, the management of money, etc. is not productive for you or for them. Talks about money with your significant other should be calm, supportive, non-confrontational and use logical problem solving.

When your children are old enough to request things from the store, then it’s time to begin the hands-on teaching techniques. This is the best time to teach math skills and delayed gratification. In the beginning, children may not have the focused attention needed, but if you keep at it, they will get better at understanding the concept of delayed gratification. Start a piggy bank and have them put a picture of what they are saving for beside it. Welcome them to change the picture should they change their minds. Take out all the money and count it with the child every other week and keep a number on a tally board. The visual stimulation of seeing the number rise at every count builds confidence.

Teach the attitude of gratitude. Whenever your youngster receives money, have them thank the person that gave it. Teaching appreciation at an early age may fend off the “spoiled child” route. Simple messages such as “please,” “thank you,” and “you’re welcome” are wonderful for building well-adjusted youths.

Seven Arts Pictures PLC (SAPXF.OB) is a UK-based independent producer and distributor of quality feature films. The company has distinguished itself as a source for both high-quality films (such as those shown at the Cannes Film Festival) and marketable, big-budget feature films that appeal to a worldwide audience.

Seven Arts is making a specific effort to acquire and distribute films with substantial DVD and home video potential, even if there is limited theatrical release. Such “made for DVD” films are particularly popular in the “horror” and “family entertainment” genres which Seven Arts is pursuing aggressively. One strategy that Seven Arts is pursuing is to assist in the actual production of several films each year to provide additional product for its distribution system. The company hopes to increase its library of approximately 21 films to more than 75 films within the next 5 years.

Seven Arts is currently involved with the Arthurian historical epic adventure, “Mortal Armor: The Legend of Galahad”. This film, which is in pre-production, follows the journey of young Galahad in his quest for the Holy Grail, which a dying King Arthur believed might save his war-ravaged kingdom from destruction. As the story unfolds, Galahad finds his first love, meets his long-lost father, Lancelot, and seeks to prove himself a worthy knight. The company has secured the worldwide rights to the film.

As experts everywhere scramble to solve the planet’s serious resource issues, it becomes increasingly evident that a practical solution is desperately needed. It seems that oil has become more of a liability than a commodity, with exorbitant prices creating a nearly unbearable strain on virtually every section of our economy. Hybrid Technologies provides a technological “out” concerning our rigid dependency on the substance.

Lithium-derived electricity is one of the cleanest, most efficient alternatives to traditional forms of vehicle propulsion, and Hybrid Technologies is an authority on the subject. The company’s extensive line of all-lithium automobiles is a testament to its dedication to effect change on a world that is still frightened at the prospect.

In the past, electric cars have been largely viewed as impractical due to long charge times and short travel ranges. On a single six-hour charge, a Hybrid Technologies vehicle can traverse more than 130 miles of roadway, leaving impracticality in the rear-view. To that end, electric engine components require extraordinarily less in the way of maintenance than their gas-guzzling counterparts. They run cold by comparison, and they do it quietly to boot.

How much would you expect to pay to free yourself from the bonds of petroleum dependency? Actually, it may not be as much as you think; Hybrid’s lithium cars start at under $40,000.
