BREAKING NEWS!!
The Governator and the Disintegrator: A Sharp Match 'Holding Pharmaceutical Companies Accountable'
WESTON, Fla., Oct 13, 2009 -- It is illegal in the state of California to unsafely dispose of "sharps" (medical waste such as needles and syringes) in the home, and thanks to California State Senator Joe Simitian's Senate Bill 486, and contributors from his annual "There Oughta Be A Law" contest, 1 million Californians will not be breaking the law anymore (see http://www.ciwmb.ca.gov/hhw/sharps/).
American Scientific Resources, Inc. (Pink Sheets: ASFX) (the Company), is pleased to note that the SB 486 has been approved by Governor Schwarzenegger, providing Californians with a safe way to dispose of their sharps at home. Approximately 386-million sharps are generated each year in California that need to be disposed of (source).
This new law will require pharmaceutical companies to submit plans to the California Integrated Waste Management Board on how they propose to support the patients who use their drugs by providing safe needle collection and disposal programs. Additionally, they will be required to provide the specialty medication users (such as those with multiple sclerosis, diabetes, rheumatoid arthritis, hepatitis and HIV) with information on their websites on the various product options available to safely and easily manage their sharps.
Jason Roth, ASR's Senior Vice President comments, "Not only is this a triumph for numerous Californians, but it is also creating corporate responsibility in the green movement and holding pharmaceutical companies accountable for the proper disposal of their patients safe needle disposal. ASR is very much looking forward to continuing discussions with the pharmaceutical manufacturers about how we can meet their needs in the US and the rest of the globe."
ASR manufacturers the world's only FDA approved home needle destruction device (NDD), the Disintegrator(TM) and Disintegrator Plus(TM). The Disintegrator enables patients who give themselves injections to properly and safely dispose of needles at home.

NetApp Offers Zero Investment Promise* to Improve Efficiency of EMC and HP SAN Environments
EMC and HP Customers Can Confidently Reduce Storage Capacity and Costs With NetApp V-Series
SUNNYVALE, CA, Oct 12, 2009 -- In an effort to help customers maximize the value of their existing storage investments, NetApp (NASDAQ: NTAP) today announced its Zero Investment Promise* Program (ZIP Program) to help EMC and HP customers improve the efficiency of their storage area network (SAN) environments.
The ZIP Program enables EMC and HP customers to achieve greater efficiency on SAN storage systems that they already purchased and deployed by recovering capacity that can be inefficiently used and helping reduce the ongoing rate of storage consumption. Under terms of the ZIP Program, customers with EMC and HP SANs that deploy NetApp(R) V-Series could reduce storage capacity and the associated costs of their existing third-party storage investments. NetApp is so confident about this that NetApp is willing to put it in writing.
NetApp's unique portfolio of storage efficiency technologies enables customers to perform data management tasks faster; use less storage; and at the same time reduce their overall power, space, and cooling costs in their data centers. NetApp storage efficiency is especially beneficial for a wide range of application environments. Based on third party total cost of ownership (TCO) studies, NetApp customers have a 38% lower TCO for VMware(R), 39% lower for Oracle(R), 44% lower for file services, and 55% lower for SAP(R).
"Improved storage efficiency helps our customers relieve the pressure of IT budget reductions and minimize the risks of new SAN projects," said Patrick Rogers, vice president of Solutions Marketing at NetApp. "If a customer already owns an EMC or HP SAN, NetApp V-Series can free additional storage within their existing storage systems without the need to replace their current storage investment. We're so confident in our storage efficiency capabilities that we will promise customers, under the terms of the ZIP Program, that if they use NetApp V-Series to augment their EMC and HP SAN environments and don't see savings, we'll let them keep the equipment at no charge."
NetApp V-Series is an open storage controller family that unifies NetApp and third-party storage under a common storage architecture. V-Series customers can take full advantage of the powerful features of Data ONTAP(R) such as deduplication, thin provisioning, and Snapshot(TM) technology to help improve storage efficiency and simplify data management.
Availability and Requirements Direct customers in the United States and Canada that implement a new V-Series system in their EMC or HP SAN environments are eligible to take advantage of the NetApp ZIP Program today. NetApp pledges, based on the terms of the ZIP Program, that by deploying V-Series users will reduce their physical storage requirements and potentially receive a payback on their V-Series investment. The ZIP Program agreement will stipulate the agreed-upon storage savings and price of the equipment and provide customers a free 90-day trial of the equipment to realize storage efficiencies and help reduce operating costs. NetApp Professional Services will partner with customers to help the trial period be as smooth as possible. If after 90 days upon receipt of the equipment the agreed-upon storage savings is achieved, the customer will issue a purchase order and be invoiced by NetApp at the agreed-upon price of the equipment. If after 90 days the customer files an approved claim that the storage savings is not achieved, the customer will keep the equipment at no charge. In all cases, customers are responsible for all applicable taxes.

*The Zero Investment Promise Program ("ZIP Program") is limited to the terms set forth in www.netapp.com/zip. These terms are applicable only to prospective orders placed after the ZIP Program effective date and are dependent upon participant's compliance with the terms and conditions set forth in the ZIP Program and any of the instruction sets and specifications set forth in the referenced documents.

BREAKING NEWS!! Orbit International Corp.'s TDL Subsidiary Completes Move to Larger Facility to Accommodate High Quantity Production Opportunities
HAUPPAUGE, N.Y., Oct 12, 2009 -- Orbit International Corp. (NASDAQ:ORBT), an electronics manufacturer and software solution provider, today announced that its Tulip Development Laboratory, Inc. ("TDL") subsidiary has completed its move to a 50,000 square foot facility, located at 300 Commerce Blvd, Quakertown, PA. This larger facility has the capacity to accommodate high quantity, multi-year production programs.
David Gutman, President of TDL indicated, "We have been working with a number of prime contractors, supporting prototype and pre-production display opportunities that would require additional space and support personnel if and when these programs progress into full production. Several of these prime contractors have already received our prototype and pre-production displays and are in the process of completing qualification testing. A majority of these new program opportunities required a commitment by our management to our prime defense electronics customers that accelerated delivery schedules could be met without production capacity driven disruptions."
Dennis Sunshine, President and Chief Executive Officer of Orbit stated, "The move to a larger facility provides TDL with sufficient space to run a number of high rate production programs, and permits TDL to bring back several manufacturing processes that were previously outsourced, simply due to facility constraints. With this larger facility, TDL should realize significant manufacturing efficiencies while gaining in-house control of customer driven production schedule requirements."
Sunshine concluded, "If we receive production orders for several of these programs, TDL would require additional technical, engineering and manufacturing personnel to support the high rate production requirements. The potential for creating new jobs within the Quakertown, PA. area would be a win-win proposition for both TDL and the community."
Orbit International Corp. is involved in the manufacture of customized electronic components and subsystems for military and nonmilitary government applications through its production facilities in Hauppauge, New York, and Quakertown, Pennsylvania; and designs and manufactures combat systems and gun weapons systems, provides system integration and integrated logistics support and documentation control at its facilities in Louisville, Kentucky.
