Biotechnology Co. Divine Skin, Inc. (DSKX.OB) Introduces First Topical Hair-Growth Treatment with Astressin-B Peptide

September 20, 2011,

MIAMI BEACH, Fla., Sept. 20, 2011 — Divine Skin Inc. (OTC Bulletin Board:DSKX.ob – News) has announced the release of the first topical hair-growth treatment based on astressin-B, a peptide newly discovered to regrow hair on bald mice. Divine Skin becomes the first biotech developer to synthesize and commercialize the peptide for human use in a cosmetic product, to be marketed as Spectral.F7 under the DS Laboratories brand.

“Astressin-B is a very complex peptide that is difficult to synthesize,” said Divine Skin CEO Daniel Khesin. “So we are especially excited that the resulting product will be reasonably priced as well as cutting-edge, considering the extraordinary development schedule and cost.”

Astressin-B sparked extensive media coverage worldwide and excitement around the biotech industry after a clinical study, conducted by the University of California Los Angeles and the Veterans Administration, was published in February. By applying the peptide (a protein fragment) subcutaneously to mice that had gone bald due to overexpression of stress hormones, scientists showed that astressin-B blocked receptors for corticotropin-releasing factor, involved in the stress response, and led to hair regrowth.

Nansulate® High Heat thermal insulation and corrosion prevention coating was used for insulation of dyeing machines and associated steam pipes to reduce energy consumption, lower surface temperature, and reduce carbon emissions. Once the initial project is complete, the project will continue at each of their two factories, the other is located in Istanbul, Turkey. Photos of the project are available at www.nansulate.com/arikbey.htm.

“We are now at a stage that we are getting recognition from many other industries,” stated Vedat Bilgin, President, Kolorgen Ltd. “Over and over again, both in Turkey and other countries, we have proven to several industries that Nansulate® surpasses all other forms of insulation in terms of energy saving capability, durability and long service life in harsh environments. We now have a few ongoing projects with some leading textile companies in Turkey and abroad, as well as companies in other industries.”

Francesca Crolley V.P. Business Development, Industrial Nanotech, Inc., explains, “We have a very successful track record in the textile manufacturing industry for providing energy savings through insulation of equipment such as dyeing machines, steam pipes, boilers, and heat exchangers. We’ve worked with numerous textile companies, such a Coats plc who expects to reduce their steam consumption by 10 percent and their global carbon footprint by 2%, Henateks Textile, who documented an average 20% reduction in liquid natural gas with a 7 month payback, and numerous others, to reduce their energy savings significantly through use of Nansulate® advanced insulation technology. Our textile and other manufacturing clients have been very pleased with the multiple benefits the coatings offer, which are energy cost savings, reduction of carbon emissions, and improved worker safety by reducing surface temperature and heat expelled into the environment.”

Arik Bey Tekstil Enerji ve Sinai Yatirimlar is owned by Akkanat Holding, a diversified group of companies, active in textiles, power generation and tourism. Arik Bey is a contract supplier for adidas, and both locations are listed on their July 2011 List of Authorized Suppliers – London 2012 Olympic and Paralympic Games.

BAAR, SWITZERLAND–07/14/11) – Manas Petroleum Corp. (“Manas”) (TSX-V:MNP - News) (OTC.BB:MNAP -News) is pleased to announce the commencement of the second seismic survey on the two Mongolian blocks — Zuunbayan-XIV Block and Tsagaan Els-XIII Block — owned by Gobi Energy Partners GmbH (“GEP GmbH”). This year’s seismic survey includes up to 1,700 km of 2D seismic. It covers 10 prospective areas over both blocks, which were identified by our integrated interpretation. The program is laid out in 8 phases without any interruption between the phases; however, some phases show interdependencies. Preparation and mobilization has commenced and the acquisition is expected to begin in mid-August. The seismic work will be conducted with vibrators.

Manas Petroleum Corp. (MNAP.OB)Through its wholly-owned subsidiary, DWM Petroleum AG, Manas owns record title to 100% of the issued and outstanding shares of GEP GmbH, though 26% is held in trust for others.

Shares of Industrial Nanotech, Inc. (INTK.PK) Active on Shipment 2,973 Gallon Order of Nansulate® Nanotechnology

August 22, 2011,

Industrial Nanotech, Inc. (INTK.PK)NAPLES, Fla.–Industrial Nanotech, Inc. (Pink Sheets:INTK.pk – News), an emerging global leader in nanoscience energy saving solutions, announced today that they have begun shipment of 2,973 gallons of the Company’s patented Nansulate® Translucent PT insulation and corrosion control coating to industrial contractor, Montaco, who will be applying the product on fuel oil storage tanks at the Porto refinery in Portugal beginning late August through September 2011. The Porto refinery is also known as Matosinhos refinery, owned by Galp Energia. This order represents a sale amount of over $225,800.

“This is our second project at Galp Energia’s Matosinhos refinery. We fulfilled an order for our first project there last year to insulate and prevent corrosion on an oil pipeline. This recent order will be used to insulate and protect vital fuel oil storage tanks,” stated Francesca Crolley, V.P. of Business Development for Industrial Nanotech, Inc. “As a result of the two projects at the Matosinhos refinery, we have now received other requests for refinery and biofuel project specifications, including one for a 185,000 m3 bunkering terminal and another for 6000 m2 fuel storage tanks. Nansulate® coating technology represents an innovation in insulation, combining thermal barrier properties with corrosion control, UV and moisture resistance, to provide a long-term and durable solution that maintains its integrity over time. It’s a natural fit for refineries of all types, from oil and gas to biofuel and biodiesel, to reduce energy costs while also lowering maintenance costs for their equipment. Additionally, it is an example of a nanotechnology based invention that is from U.S. ingenuity, U.S. manufactured, and is helping reduce energy consumption and provide protective solutions around the world.”

Galp Energia SGPS SA, Portugal’s biggest oil company, plans to invest 5.2 billion euros ($6.5 billion) through 2013 as it develops projects including Tupi, the biggest oil discovery in the Americas in three decades. Galp plans to spend 2.2 billion euros on its refining and marketing division, mostly on conversion projects at its Sines and Porto refineries as it tries to increase diesel output and improve refining margins. Galp Energia acquires from several suppliers the crude oil that is processed in its refineries at Sines and Porto. These refineries have a total refining capacity of 310 thousand barrels of crude oil a day, or 20% of the Iberian Peninsula’s refining capacity.
