August 19 – Hi Score Corporation Enters Agreement for Energy Saving LED Street Lights High Score Corporation (OTC: HSCO) announced that it has entered into a licensing agreement with NexPhase Lighting whereby Hi Score will work together with NexPhase to develop a line of Energy Saving LED Street Lights and Parking Lot Lights.

Over the past year, Hi Score, through its subsidiary Green Led Technologies has been attempting to enter into an agreement with a local manufacturing company wherein GLT would become the owner of the design and all intellectual Property rights to a line of Energy Saving LED Street and Parking Lot Lights. This milestone has been and still is the primary thrust of the company`s business plan. The achievement of this goal has been contingent upon the fulfillment of certain funding agreements that have been previously disclosed.

In spite of earnest efforts on the part of management this funding has not fully materialized. As a result, the previous President of the company, Dror Svorai, stepped down from his position as CEO and created an LED Lighting Factory. This new factory, NexPhase Lighting has entered into a favored agreement with Hi Score wherein Hi Score will become a beneficial owner of a line of American Made Energy Efficient LED Street Lights and Parking Lot Lights. The agreement favors Hi Score insomuch as Hi Score will own all Intellectual Property Rights to these lines of products at a price that Hi Score can afford without obtaining additional funding.

The American Made Energy Efficient Street Light Line will be produced under The Green Led Technology Label. The prototype is expected to through testing by October and is expected to be ready for distribution by the end of the year. This will enable the company to begin distributing the line through its contracted wholesale distributor within the first quarter of 2011. The company`s business plan has set a goal of selling one million Street lights over the next ten years which should generate over half a billion dollars in revenue during that period.

Michael Zoyes, CEO of Hi Score, said, “This has been a long road with many obstacles but Dror and I do not have any quit in us. We both believe that there is always a way to meet your goals and we fully expect to meet ours.” KENTUCKY ENERGY INCORPORATED (OTC: QMIN) “Up 25.00% on Thursday” Detailed Quote:

QMIN News:

August 25 – Kentucky Energy Inc. July 31, 2010, Year to Date Production Results Gwenco to Report Coal Revenue Increase of 341% Clean Tons of Coal Kentucky Energy Inc. (OTC: QMIN) (Kentucky Energy), a Kentucky based operator of energy and mineral related properties, today announced its financial results for its second quarter ended June 30, 2010.

Second Quarter 2010 Highlights Year to date revenue was $1.48M compared to $0.33M in 2009.

Kentucky Energy coal revenues were $1,458,351 for the six months ended June 30, 2010, as compared to $330,314 for the six months ended June 30, 2009, an increase of approximately 341%. This increase in revenues was due to an increased level of mining operations in the first six months of 2010 versus 2009. Kentucky Energy subsidiary Gwenco leases over 700 acres of coal mines, with approximately 12,999,000 tons of coal in place in six seams.

Eugene Chiaramonte, Jr., President of Kentucky Energy, noted, “The improved year to date revenue represents an important milestone for our Company. This significant increase in revenue resulted from our ability to mine on a more consistent basis as compared to the prior period. As a percentage of net sales, our production costs decreased, as our additional cost expenditures resulted in more efficient and productive mining operations. We added and upgraded equipment which allowed us to be in production more consistently. In addition, as we advanced further into the mine, the coal seam thickened, which resulted in improved rates of recovery and a higher percentage of coal per gross ton extracted.” “We continue to work toward our production goal of 10,000 clean tons of coal per month. We are proud our coal meets sulfur dioxide emission standards for air quality without the need for flue-gas desulfurization,” Mr. Chiaramonte concluded.

Hendricks says, “Last week we all met in Florida to finish the production run, and as a team, we`re excited about what`s in the bottle. The tea tastes fantastic and is right on balance. The staff at Tampa CoPack was very accommodating and made our first run a great success.

There was so much energy with this team that we were ready to go to market right there.” Grand Ma Ma is a character played by former NBA player Larry Johnson in a Converse Shoes ad campaign. Larry Johnson and Grand Ma Ma are back and will be the face of Hall of Fame`s sweet tea product.

Johnson was in Tampa, Florida, for the production of the tea and says he`s enjoying recreating the character. “It`s been a while since Grand Ma Ma has been out there, and it`s great to see the character on the label. While in Tampa, I got to taste the tea coming off the line, and it really tastes great.” Hall of Fame Beverages project manager, Louis Restivo, who is responsible for distribution says the product is now being prepped for shipment. “We`ll be sending the product to our warehouse, sending it out west for direct store delivery and sending it to Elmira Distributing Company.

“We`re fortunate to be working with Toby Lagonegro at Elmira who will be distributing our products from the Canadian border to New York State.” Toby Lagonegro, the owner of Elmira Distributing Company in Elmira, New York, is a fifth generation owner of the company. Elmira Distributing has been in the business for over a hundred years and Lagonegro was the first to purchase the product for distribution. The company will be carrying the Grand Ma Ma`s Sweet Southern Tea and Atomic Dogg Super Soda.

Lagonegro says, “I was down in Tampa for the production. The sweet tea has legs and will sell, and we`re ecstatic about this relationship with Hall of Fame. We`re hoping this takes off like our efforts did when we helped to launch Fuze among other drinks.” Elmira Distributing Company currently works with 53 different supermarkets and convenience stores, including, BJ`s Wholesale, Sam`s Club, 7-Eleven and several school districts.

Restivo said, “As we get the product out to Massachusetts, Connecticut, New York, New Jersey, Delaware, Pennsylvania, Virginia, West Virginia, Texas, California, Arizona, Nevada and elsewhere we`ll be using the network I spent years setting up as well as a DSD, or a direct store delivery process, to get product in locations out west. In the coming weeks we`ll also be announcing the hotels, airlines and cruise lines who will be taking our products.” Hall of Fame Beverages national sales manager, James Robinson, will be putting Grand Ma Ma`s Sweet Southern Tea in 7-Eleven and K-Mart stores in California, Arizona and Nevada using the direct store delivery process.

Robinson says, “The beverage season has now begun and we look forward to getting on the fast track with corporate accounts.” Steve Hendricks and company President, Calvin Ross, both credit the success of this production run to Susan and Scot Ballantyne and their staff at Tampa CoPack. Susan Ballantyne is the Director of Operations at the facility, and said, “Hall of Fame was a pleasure to work with, everyone liked the end result and we look forward to a long relationship with them.” Calvin Ross added, “I am thankful for everyone`s patience with the company, and I hope shareholders are pleased with the management team and the product we`ve produced. It was great to have Larry Johnson with us in Tampa to see the tea roll off the line, as he`s very involved with operations and marketing at Hall of Fame, and he has a hand in all our decisions.” Hall of Fame Beverages CEO Steve Hendricks stated, “We already have a second production run of Grand Ma Ma`s Sweet Southern Tea paid for, and it will be online in a couple of weeks. Our brand Atomic Dogg Super Soda will be produced and ready for distribution in the next 10 days. When we talked about me becoming the CEO, I said if I can`t help build a brand, then I don`t want to do it. With what we have at Hall of Fame, I feel in my heart, we can build a brand that my kids can drink and a brand that will be here into the next generation.” EGPI FIRECREEK INCORPORATED (OTCBB: EFIR) “Up 83.33% on Thursday” Detailed Quote:
