Commenting on first quarter results, Dr. Carl Kukkonen, CEO of VIASPACE, said, “Our revenue for the first quarter represents a number of accomplished milestones, including the first revenue generated for our SHINE inference engine in a commercial, non-security application with a major Japanese corporation, and also represents our first overseas sale of this technology. Sales of our new HS-1000 Humidity Sensor have grown and some of those sales represent the first uses of that device incorporated into a Fuel Cell Test Station designed to test Hydrogen Fuel Cells in the $55 Billion dollar clean energy sector. There are a number of major automotive and fuel cell corporations that have the expected need for hundreds of these test stations in the future. As they evaluate the unit’s performance, we are optimistic that we will see increased orders from these major companies over the next several quarters. The quarter’s revenue also includes an initial sale of our new Lithium Battery Tester. We have also seen a substantial increase in the number of contacts from several major fuel cell manufacturers, and the U.S. Government, concerning design of cartridges for their liquid fuel cell efforts. The recently announced final rule from the Department of Transportation allowing passengers and crew to bring fuel cell cartridges on board the passenger compartment of commercial aircraft has been a watershed event in regulatory approval. During the remainder of 2008, we expect to see revenue from our instrumentation business, from our new lines of safe Lithium batteries, our new agreement on AIMS perimeter defense radar systems, as well as other new alternative energy technologies.”

DNC Releases New Ad on John McCain: ‘100′

WASHINGTON, April 27 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ — On NBC’s Meet the Press this morning, Democratic National Committee Chairman Howard Dean announced that the DNC will air its second television advertisement of the 2008 Presidential Election season. Entitled “100,” the ad will begin airing on cable networks nationally next week. While John McCain and the Republican Party are hoping voters will forget that McCain is “fine” with the Bush Administration’s open-ended commitment in Iraq, the DNC will again give voters the chance to see and hear John McCain in his own words.The ad features Senator McCain telling a town hall audience that despite the long war having cost our country $500 billion and 4,000 lives, staying in Iraq for 100 years “would be fine with me.” The ad ends with the question all Americans must ask themselves when they go to the ballot box this November: “If all he offers is more of the same….is John McCain the right choice for America’s future?”John McCain’s position on the war in Iraq is proving to be a political liability with voters who don’t want more of the same disastrous Bush policies in Iraq. While just 31 percent of Americans approve of President Bush’s handling of the war, McCain continues to be one of the most vocal supporters of the President’s failed strategy there. And with the fifth anniversary of Bush’s “Mission Accomplished” speech Thursday, voters will be reminded of how wrong Bush and McCain have been on the war every step of the way. [Associated Press, 4/10/08]This is the second ad the Democratic National Committee has launched this campaign season to expose McCain for the weak candidate that he is. Last week, the DNC launched the ad “Better Off,” featuring John McCain explaining to the American people that despite the stark reality to the contrary, he thinks we “overall are better off” than we were eight years ago. As the campaign season continues, the DNC will continue to use McCain’s words as proof that a vote for McCain is a vote for a third Bush term.”What John McCain doesn’t understand is that the American people aren’t fine with being in Iraq for 100 years in any capacity,” said Democratic National Committee Chairman Howard Dean. “The American people want a President who will responsibly end the war, not more of the same failed policy in Iraq that continues to cost $12 billion a month. They want a President who will invest that money here at home to create jobs and ensure our kids have health care. The more voters learn about John McCain, we’re confident they will recognize that he is the wrong choice for America’s future.”To view the ad click on the link below: Script of DNC Ad: “100″ Video Audio President Bush has talked about our Question from audience over a card staying in Iraq for 50 years with CG: Senator McCain, President Bush has talked about our staying Maybe 100. in Iraq for 50 years.

The United States has kept forces in South Korea since war erupted with North Korea in 1950 and currently has about 30,000 troops there.” [Los Angeles Times, 5/31/07] 100 Years Questioner: “Everyone Who Was There That Night Got It: We Weren’t Getting Out Anytime Soon.” According to Dave Tiffany, the questioner at the McCain town hall in New Hampshire who prompted McCain to pledge his allegiance to staying in Iraq for 100 years, “While splitting hairs over the meaning of campaign rhetoric, all ignore the fact that McCain advocates an open-ended presence in Iraq, and the consequences that would follow from such a commitment. McCain’s words left little room for interpretation. By saying that he was fine with staying in Iraq for 100 years, he made clear his commitment to staying the course and, further, to remaining in Iraq for years after the country is pacified, assuming that’s ever possible. Everyone who was there that night got it: we weren’t getting out anytime soon.” [The Huffington Post, 4/7/2008] McCain’s Notion Of 100 Year US Presence In Iraq “Betrays A Fairly Acute Lack Of Knowledge About Both Iraq And Islam.”"Time Columnist Joe Klein writes, “The problem with John McCain’s 100 years in Iraq formulation isn’t that he’s calling for 95 more years of combat — he isn’t — but that he thinks you can have a long-term basing arrangement in Iraq similar to those we have in Germany or Korea. That betrays a fairly acute lack of knowledge about both Iraq and Islam. It may well be possible to station U.S. troops in small, peripheral kingdoms like Dubai or Kuwait, but Iraq is — and has always been — volatile, tenuous, centrally-located and nearly as sensitive to the presence of infidels as Saudi Arabia. It is a terrible candidate for a long-term basing agreement.” [Time, Swampland, 4/1/2008] Maybe 100. McCain answers. 2008: McCain Said US May CG: 100 years in Stay In Iraq For 100 Years.

But that figure is just a small piece of the much larger bill that taxpayers will pay in the future. Because the money for the war is being borrowed, interest payments could add another $615 billion. A heavily depleted military will have to be rebuilt at a cost of $280 billion. Disability benefits and health care for Iraq war veterans, many of them severely injured, could add another half-trillion dollars over their lifetime.” [San Francisco Chronicle, 3/18/2008] Over 4,000 American Military Personnel Have Died in The Conflict.

But it will be brief.” [Hannity and Colmes, 2/21/03] 2002, 2003: McCain Proclaimed Success In Iraq Would Be “Easy.” In the run up to War with Iraq, McCain repeatedly emphasized that the conflict would be “easy.” Speaking in September 2002 about the prospect of invading Iraq, McCain said he thought it would not be a difficult conflict. McCain said, “I believe that the success [in Iraq] will be fairly easy.” In January of 2003, McCain again predicted the same about invading Iraq, saying, we will win this conflict.
