Renewable Energy Stock News; Juhl Wind (OTCBB:JUHL) Reports Record Revenue and Earnings Results for 2011

Pipestone, MN - April 3, 2012 - Investorideas.com Renewable Energy Newswire - Juhl Wind Inc. (OTCBB: JUHL), the Leader in Community Wind Power, today announced its results for the year ended December 31, 2011. The Company posted record revenue and net income results for fiscal year 2011 driven by their continued success in the development and construction of community wind farms. Total revenue for the year increased 148% to $15,578,000 and net income increased 269% to approximately $3,042,000 catapulting the Company to its first ever, full-year positive income results.

"We are obviously very proud of our results for 2011, a year that was truly historic for our company," stated Dan Juhl, Chairman and CEO of Juhl Wind Inc. "Our financial performance was a direct result of our ability to fully develop, arrange financing for and complete construction on seven major wind projects during a very difficult time in our economy, and for the wind industry. We believe these results underscore Juhl Wind’s leading position in the renewable energy industry. The completed energy projects include Adams, Danielson, Grant County, Gundersen Lutheran, Valley View, Winona County and Woodstock Municipal. In addition to the completion and startup of these projects, we also retained ownership of Winona and Valley View increasing our position as an owner/operator of wind power and significantly strengthening the asset base of our balance sheet."

"During 2011, we purchased the existing Woodstock Hills wind farm and took ownership of our newly developed Winona County and Valley View projects," added John Mitola, President of Juhl Wind Inc. "Through these acquisitions, we have added $20.7 million of wind farm fixed assets. Our decision to become the owner and operator of these three wind farms is consistent with our stated plan that we will continue to add renewable assets to our balance sheet on an ongoing basis. We hope to make additional progress in this area in 2012 through our attempted acquisition of additional existing wind farms, or new projects that we plan to develop in the second half of the year. We wrapped up 2011 with excellent results represented by a combination of increased revenue and earnings, higher balance sheet cash and significantly greater assets."

Results for the twelve-month period ended December 31, 2011:

Total revenue increased by approximately $9,310,000, or 148.5%, from approximately $6,268,000 for the year ended December 31, 2010, to approximately $15,578,000, for the year ended December 31, 2011. The increase in revenue over the year ended December 31, 2010 is primarily attributable to wind farm development fee revenue earned from five wind farm projects that completed construction and financing arrangements during 2011.
Our operating income increased by approximately $7,634,000, or 278.0%, from an operating loss of approximately $2,746,000 for the year ended December 31, 2010 to operating income of approximately $4,888,000 for the year ended December 31, 2011. The increase in operating income for the year ended December 31, 2011 is primarily attributable to the increase in development fee revenue of $8,033,000 earned from the completion of five wind farm developments.
Net income increased by approximately $4,842,000, or 269.0%, from a net loss of approximately $1,800,000 for the year ended December 31, 2010 to approximately $3,042,000 for the year ended December 31, 2011. The increase in net income over the period ended December 31, 2011 is largely attributable to the increase in revenue sources noted under revenue and operating income sections above.
Basic and diluted net income per share of $0.12 per common share for 2011 compares to the ($0.10) loss per common share for 2010.
As of December 31, 2011, the Company reported it held approximately $6.2 million in the form of cash accounts and short term investments, which includes approximately $382,000 in balances that are restricted by a debt covenant. Our liquidity position was significantly enhanced through generating $5.5 million in Cash flow from Operating Activities.
During 2011, we made equity investments in three wind farms totaling 21.7 MW for a combined investment of approximately $2.3 million. We had not previously owned any wind farms prior to 2011.

A full analysis of results for the period ended December 31, 2011 is available in the Company's Form 10-K, which is available on the Company's website at www.juhlwind.com or through the Securities and Exchange Commission's Edgar database at www.sec.gov.

Wind Stock News: Clean Wind Energy Tower, Inc. (OTCBB:CWET) Successful Public Hearing on Downdraft Tower Location

ANNAPOLIS, Md. - April 2, 2012 (Investorideas.com renewable energy/green newswire) Clean Wind Energy Tower, Inc. (OTCBB:CWET) (the "Company") announced today that on March 29th, 2012 a Public Information Hearing for the City of San Luis, Arizona was held to discuss the construction of Clean Wind Energy's innovative green renewable energy Downdraft Tower Facility within the San Luis City limits. The Downdraft Tower project received a favorable response at the Public Information Hearing and the City of San Luis, has scheduled a Planning and Zoning Commission hearing to be held on April 10, 2012.

The San Luis location incorporates plans for two (2) Downdraft Towers and a component parts Assembly Plant. As designed, the Company anticipates that each Downdraft Tower could generate enough electricity to power up to 1,600,000 homes using the guidelines set forth in the California Statewide Residential Appliance Saturation Study, 2004. As an independent power producer of clean renewable energy, the Company will not be selling power directly to consumers but rather to the grid.

Ronald W. Pickett, President and Chief Executive Officer previously stated, "San Luis is an ideal location for Clean Wind Energy to build our first alternative energy facility because this region of the southwest United States provides the proper weather profiles, proximity to the power grid, and other ingredients beneficial to the operation of a Downdraft Tower, and has been previously targeted as a prime region for alternative energy projects. I am enthusiastic about locating our Downdraft Tower in the United States because not only is this a breakthrough source of clean alternative energy, it will bring significant employment opportunities and economic stimulus to San Luis and a number of U.S. industries. We anticipate that during the Downdraft Tower's construction phase, 2,500 construction and transportation jobs and 1,000 manufacturing jobs will be created. Once placed in service, each Tower should generate 1,000 permanent jobs."

About Clean Wind Energy, Inc.

Clean Wind Energy, Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of Clean Wind Energy Tower, Inc., has designed and is preparing to develop, and construct large "Downdraft Towers" that use benevolent, non-toxic natural elements to generate electricity and clean water economically by integrating and synthesizing numerous proven as well as emerging technologies.

The Company's core objective and focus is to become a provider of clean efficient green energy to the world communities at a reasonable cost without the destructive residuals of fossil fuel, and to help broker the chasm between both, while continuing to generate innovative technological solutions for today and tomorrow's electrical power needs.

In addition to constructing Downdraft Towers in the United States and abroad, the Company intends to establish partnerships at home and abroad to propagate these systems and meet increasing global demand for clean water and electricity. Clean Wind has assembled a team of experienced business professionals, engineers and scientists with access to the breakthrough energy research upon which this technology is founded and the proven ability to bring the idea to market. Clean Wind Energy, Inc. has filed several patents that the Company believes will further enhance this potentially revolutionary technology. Clean Wind Energy, Inc. is based in Annapolis MD, and is traded on the OTCBB under the symbol 'CWET'. For more information visit www.cleanwindenergytower.com

Medical Technology Stock Alert; PositiveID Corporation (OTCBB:PSID) Announces First Quarter 2012 Accomplishments: Positions Itself for $3 Billion BioWatch Contract and Advances the Development of Its Diabetes Management Products

DELRAY BEACH, Fla. - April 2, 2012 (Investorideas.com newswire) - PositiveID Corporation (OTCBB:PSID), an emerging growth company and developer of advanced technologies for diabetes management as well as sophisticated airborne bio-threat detection systems for America's homeland defense industry, today announced its accomplishments for the first quarter of 2012, including its positioning for the $3.1 billion BioWatch contract and the continued progress with the Company's development and clinical study of its innovative diabetes management products.

PositiveID's First Quarter 2012 Operational Highlights

Positioned its M-BAND airborne bio-threat detection system to take part in the Department of Homeland Security's $3.1 billion BioWatch Gen-3 opportunity, which is expected to be released in the third quarter of 2012
Partnered with the Diabetes Research Institute at the University of Miami and Schneider Children's Medical Center of Israel to support the development of the Company's diabetes management products, including Easy Check(TM) and GlucoChip(TM)
Commenced clinical study of PositiveID's Easy Check, a non-invasive breath glucose detection device, at Schneider Children's Medical Center of Israel under the leadership of world-renowned endocrinologist Prof. Moshe Phillip; the study is expected to be completed by year-end 2012
Finalized its first-in-class development of a fully synthetic glucose sensing system to be used in its GlucoChip and measure glucose levels within the body, which is considered to be a critical step in the development of an artificial pancreas
Awarded U.S. Patent for first-of-its-kind Dragonfly detection system for molecular biological diagnostics

"We continued to make great strides in all areas of our business in the first quarter of 2012, and are executing on our plan to bring these important technologies to market," stated William J. Caragol, Chairman and CEO of PositiveID. "We are seeing early positive results from our Easy Check testing, and remain optimistic that the significant benefits of our M-BAND system set us apart from the competition, thereby solidifying our position with large partners for the $3.1 billion BioWatch opportunity. Additionally, we are preparing for the initial roll-out of our FDA-cleared iglucose in the second quarter of this year through home-healthcare providers and healthcare insurers."

M-BAND is the only system of its kind that was demonstrated in the field under the DHS Science and Technology ("S&T") BAND Program. PositiveID's patented M-BAND biodetector was developed under a competitive award from DHS S&T, and M-BAND was the only successful system to emerge from the BAND program. BioWatch program is the nation's first early warning network of sensors to detect biological attacks. Because of the rapid decision cycle and the need for a deployment of medical countermeasures, the ability to quickly identify a biological agent will potentially save lives. Generation 3 of BioWatch is a planned, $3.1 billion procurement. At present, the Company believes there are only two technologies, one of which is its own M-BAND system, which can meet the requirements of Generation 3 BioWatch.

Designed in a miniaturized format for use at the point-of-care or in the field, PositiveID's Dragonfly(TM) Rapid MDx Cartridge-based diagnostic system provides the ability to deliver molecular diagnostic results from a sample in less than 30 minutes. Dragonfly has been proven effective for a broad range of biological detection including radiation-induced cell damage within the human body, strains of influenza and other common pathogens and diseases such as E. coli, methicillin-resistant staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) and human papilloma virus (HPV). The system offers the precision of molecular diagnostics in an easy-to-use cartridge format that minimizes the possibility of human error. Typical current molecular diagnostic testing can take hours or even days, requires highly trained personnel and includes multiple handling steps. Dragonfly enables accurate diagnostics leading to the potential treatment scenarios at the point of care that are not possible with existing systems, thereby positioning PositiveID to enter the clinical diagnostics market.

PositiveID's Easy Check, currently under development in Israel, is a non-invasive breath glucose detection device that measures the level of acetone in a patient's exhaled breath and correlates that acetone level to a measure of blood glucose. The Easy Check technology is based on a patent-pending reagent cell that mixes a patient's exhaled air with a proprietary chemical compound, triggering a chemical reaction. The reaction is measured and software in the Easy Check device then interprets the measurement and correlates the patient's acetone level to the level of glucose in the body. The goal of Easy Check is to eliminate a patient's need to prick his or her finger multiple times per day to get a blood sugar reading. With the American Diabetes Association estimating that over 25.8 million children and adults in the United States, or 8.3 percent of the population have diabetes, the overall market for a device such as Easy Check remains a significant opportunity for the Company.

Positioned for the same sizable market, PositiveID has completed its first-in-class development of a fully synthetic glucose sensing system that is the mission-critical component of its GlucoChip, a glucose-sensing microchip to measure glucose levels within the body for people with diabetes. PositiveID and its partner RECEPTORS LLC believe they are the first to develop a fully synthetic, stable, sensitive, selective sensing system that is responsive to glucose in human plasma, which is considered to be a critical step in the development of an artificial pancreas. GlucoChip is based on PositiveID's Patent No. 7,125,382 for an "Embedded Bio-Sensor System."

PositiveID's FDA-cleared iglucose(TM) system is a wireless communication device that eliminates the burden of keeping manual logbooks and empowers individuals with diabetes to be more engaged in the self-management of their condition. iglucose uses mobile technology to seamlessly communicate blood glucose readings from an individual's data-capable glucometer to the iglucose diabetes management portal, where, with the user's consent, glucose readings can be shared automatically with family members, caregivers and healthcare professionals via text message, email or fax. iglucose does not require the use of a cell phone or a wireless plan. The Company expects the initial roll-out of iglucose to commence in the second quarter of 2012.

About PositiveID Corporation OTCBB:PSID)

PositiveID Corporation is an emerging growth developer of advanced technologies for diabetes management and rapid medical testing, as well as airborne bio-threat detection systems for America's homeland defense industry.

Biotech /Pharma Stock Trading Alert: Antares (NYSE Amex: AIS) Doubles From December 15th Lows

New York , NY - March 30 , 2012- Investorideas.com, an investor research portal specializing in sector research including biotech and pharma stocks, issues a trading alert and updated commentary from Josh Levine of the Levine MicroCap Newsletter, for Antares Pharma, Inc. (NYSE Amex: AIS).



In an Alert in mid December, Levine said the negative results on LibiGel’s Phase III trials for efficacy, which were issued by AIS partner BioSante Pharmaceuticals is “only a minor bump in the road for Antares. Today’s 30%-plus drop in AIS shares is an overreaction and the stock will rebound fully in time.” He concluded: “If you don't own AIS, I recommend taking advantage of this anomaly. If you were considering adding to your current position, this is the time to move.”

Levine followed up on December 30 with this comment about AIS: “Antares has surged 30% in two weeks and is again trading above its 200-day moving average. The market quickly and correctly recognized that the LibiGel event does nothing to tarnish the company’s outlook, which has never been stronger.”

Today, the stock is trading at $3.30, up strongly from its sell off and low of $1.51 on December 15th. As the chart below illustrates, AIS shares have experienced some wild swings during the past year. Most notable was the plunge taken in December.

The shares traded as high as $3.45 on March 26, marking a gain of more than 100% in less than four months. AIS is now higher than its 2011 peak and trading at a level it hasn’t seen in a decade.

“When big inefficiencies in the market arise for small stocks, it presents great buying opportunities,” says Levine. “Understand that every situation is different and we must weigh a range of factors, starting with the news or event that caused the drop. In the case of AIS, it was abundantly clear the event was equivalent to a minor scratch, and the market’s overreaction was a gift for investors.”

Nanotechnology Stocks; mPhase Technologies, Inc. (OTC.BB:XDSL) Completes Visit by Invitation of French Technology Group

LITTLE FALLS, NJ - March 29, 2012 (Investorideas.com Newswire) - mPhase Technologies, Inc. (OTC.BB: XDSL.OB) reported today that it had completed its visit, by invitation, from certain agencies of the French government, of the Grenoble Technology Cluster known as Minalogic (http://www.minalogic.org). The cluster consists of government, corporate and educational members that are engaged in high technology research in the leading scientific disciplines such as micro and nano technologies and embedded systems on chips.

A Global competitive cluster Minalogic fosters research-led innovation in intelligent miniaturized products and solutions for industry. Located in Grenoble, France, the cluster channels in a single physical locationa range of highly-specialized skills and resources from knowledge creation to the development and production of intelligent miniaturized services for industry.

Minalogic has staked out a position as global leader in intelligent miniaturized solutions -- a unique hybrid of micro- and nano-technologies and embedded software -- from fundamental research to technology transfer.

The technologies developed at the cluster are applicable to all business sectors, including more traditional industries. The role of Minalogic is to respond to the business community's need to identify new value-added services that can be integrated into existing products in fields that include health care, the environment, mobility, the media, and the textile industry.

Minalogic brings together major corporations, small and mid-sized businesses, government agencies, and organizations from the public and private sectors. The cluster's focus on innovation and its participatory governance model are designed with one objective in mind: to ensure efficient, results-oriented cooperation among cluster partners.

The invitation was extended, after the relevant agencies reviewed mPhase's patent portfolio and the recent valuation and product applications that could result from potential licenses of various patents contained in the portfolio.

mPhase is exploring funding of additional research, development and product commercialization in the areas of reserve batteries using principals of electrowetting and microfluidics.

The first day of the visit acquainted mPhase with the considerable laboratory resources that could be made available in France to continue development and commercialization of its intellectual property for energy storage applications as well as broaden its smart surfaces applications.

The second day of the visit introduced mPhase to:

(1) ST Micro Electronics (http://www.st.com) - A world leader in providing the semiconductor solutions that help customers improve quality of life for everyone, both today and in the future.

(2) Schneider Electric (http://www.schneider-electric.com) - A global, innovative and responsible energy management company.

(3) Polyrise (http://www.polyrise.com) - Located in France, Polyrise is a private company specialized in the development, industrialization and selling of Sol Gel varnishes.

All are members of the Cluster to explore potential mutual benefits in establishing partnerships with mPhase for product development.

The focus and interest is based upon the ability of mPhase's Smart Surface technology to electronically control the precise flow of a fluid on a nano-structured surface.

mPhase will be following up with conference calls and another visit to Grenoble in order to identify additional members of the cluster for which mPhase's intellectual property could be compelling as a component in a company's final end product.

About mPhase Technologies, Inc.

China Stocks News; Ziyang Ceramics (OTC.BB: ZYCI) Reports Financial Results for the Year Ended December 31, 2011

ZHUCHENG, CHINA - March 29, 2012 - Ziyang Ceramics Corporation (OTC.BB: ZYCI) a leading manufacturer of high quality interior porcelain tiles in China, announced today its financial results for the year ended December 31, 2011.

Revenue reached $43.1 million in 2011, up 38.7% from the $31.1 million recorded in 2010
Operating Income reached $13.1 million, up 45.2% from the $9.0 million recorded in 2010
Net Income for 2011 reached $10.8 million, up 49.1% from Net Income of $7.3 million recorded in 2010

Financial Highlights

For the full year of 2011, total revenues were $43.1 million, up 38.7% from the $31.1 million recorded in 2010. The increase in revenue was largely driven by a shift in sales mix toward our higher priced premium polycrystalline porcelain floor tiles introduced late in 2010 coupled with the launch of our new interior wall tile series in August of 2011. Gross profit rose by 36.5% to $14.8 million in 2011 compared to gross profit of $10.9 million achieved in 2010. Gross profit margin for 2011 was 34.4% compared to 34.9% in 2010 reflecting higher costs associated with the launch of the new interior wall tile series.

Total operating expenses for the full year of 2011 were $1.7 million, down 6.6% from $1.8 million recorded in 2010. The decrease is primarily attributable to $0.3 million reduction in retirement insurance expense, partially offset by $0.1 million increase in salaries and selling expenses.

For the full year of 2011 net income increased 49.1% to $10.8 million with 844,360 weighted average basic and diluted shares outstanding. This compares to net income of $7.3 million with 590,035 weighted average basic and diluted shares outstanding recorded in the same period in 2010. In January of 2012 the conditions were met for full conversion of two promissory notes into common stock of the company which will result in the issuance of approximately 8.9 million common shares.

Medical Technology Stock Alert; PositiveID Corporation (OTCBB:PSID) Receives Nucleic Acids From the CDC Influenza Division to Develop a Diagnostic Assay to Detect H5N1 Avian Flu

DELRAY BEACH, Fla. - March 28, 2012 (Investorideas.com newswire) - PositiveID Corporation (OTCBB:PSID), an emerging growth company and developer of advanced technologies for diabetes management as well as sophisticated airborne bio-threat detection systems for America's homeland defense industry, announced today that it has received material from the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention's (CDC) Influenza Division-National Center for Immunization and Respiratory Diseases to develop a diagnostic assay to detect Influenza A H5N1, also known as avian flu. This assay will provide a test result in less than 30 minutes at the point of care, and is expected to be available for the upcoming flu season for diagnostic and surveillance applications.

The United Nations has urged people to be ready against a possible but major resurgence of the avian flu. According to the CDC, of the few avian influenza viruses that have crossed the species barrier to infect humans, the mutant strain of bird flu has caused the largest number of detected cases of severe disease and death in humans. Human cases of avian influenza A (H5N1) have been reported in Asia, Africa, Europe, Indonesia, Vietnam, the Pacific, and the near East. Slightly more than 60 percent of those who became ill have died.

PositiveID's assay for avian flu, as well as its other currently available assays, will run on the Company's patented Dragonfly Rapid MDx platform. Dragonfly was created out of the Company's M-BAND system, which was developed under contract from the Department of Homeland Security. The H5N1 assay will also be compatible with other commercial platforms.

The Company currently has proven assays for E.coli O157:H7; human papilloma virus (HPV); methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA); and a multiplex bio-threat assay that simultaneously tests for six bio-threat organisms on the CDC Category A and B list.

The development of an H5N1 assay is the Company's most recent push into the clinical diagnostics market, where it will offer faster, less expensive testing methods than those that are commonly used.

William J. Caragol, Chairman and CEO of PositiveID, stated, "Our assay for H5N1, as well as our other clinical diagnostic assays, will be faster and less expensive than the industry standard testing protocol. Furthermore, our microfluidic technology is highly adaptable, which enables us to develop new assays for emerging bio-threats and viruses relatively quickly, which we believe will help us as we enter the clinical diagnostic market."

About PositiveID Corporation OTCBB:PSID)

PositiveID Corporation is an emerging growth developer of advanced technologies for diabetes management and rapid medical testing, as well as airborne bio-threat detection systems for America's homeland defense industry. Its wholly-owned subsidiary, Microfluidic Systems, or MFS, is focused on the development of microfluidic systems for the automated preparation of and performance of biological assays in order to detect biological threats at high-value locations, as well as analyze samples in a medical environment.

For more information on PositiveID, please visit http://www.PositiveIDCorp.com.

Statements about PositiveID's future expectations, including the likelihood that PositiveID's M-BAND system is well positioned to take part the DHS $3.1 billion BioWatch Gen-3 opportunity, expected to be released in the first half of 2012, and is the only system of its kind that was demonstrated in the field under the DHS S&T BAND Program; the likelihood that M-BAND was the only successful system to emerge from the BAND program; the likelihood that the M-BAND instrument offers a number of advantages including decreased consumable and operating costs, a small footprint, a closed operating environment and significant flexibility of operation; the likelihood that M-BAND is the only system of its kind that has been successfully field tested indoors and outdoors, both domestically and internationally; the likelihood that M-BAND has significant benefits that set this technology apart and put PositiveID in a strong position to participate with large partners in the $3.1 billion BioWatch opportunity; and all other statements in this press release other than historical facts are "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, and as that term is defined in the Private Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Such forward-looking statements involve risks and uncertainties and are subject to change at any time, and PositiveID's actual results could differ materially from expected results. These risks and uncertainties include PositiveID's ability to successfully participate in the $3.1 billion BioWatch opportunity; as well as certain other risks. Additional information about these and other factors that could affect the Company's business is set forth in the Company's various filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission, including those set forth in the Company's 10-K filed on March 25, 2011, and 10-Qs filed on May 13, 2011, August 15, 2011, and November 14, 2011, under the caption "Risk Factors."
