            <description>&lt;p&gt;HICKSVILLE, NY--(Marketwire - November 23, 2009) -  American Defense Systems, Inc. (ADSI) (&lt;exchange name="NYSE Amex"&gt;NYSE Amex&lt;/exchange&gt;: &lt;ticker name="EAG"&gt;EAG&lt;/ticker&gt;), a leading provider of advanced transparent and opaque armor,
architectural hardening and security products for Defense and Homeland
Security, reported financial results for the third quarter ended September
30, 2009.
&lt;p&gt;
&lt;b&gt; Q3 2009 Financial Results&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br&gt;
Revenues from continuing operations in the third quarter of 2009 decreased
31% to $12.6 million from $18.3 million in the same year-ago quarter. The
decrease in revenue in the third quarter of 2009 was primarily due to a
delay in the acceptance of a large completed order for Mac-50 cranes which
were shipped at the start of the fourth quarter of 2009. Revenue from the
company's physical security product business increased 121% to $1.2 million
from $543,000 in the same year-ago quarter.

            <link>http://www.marketwire.com/mw/release.do?id=1080892&amp;sourceType=3</link>
            <description>&lt;p&gt;HICKSVILLE, NY--(Marketwire - November 23, 2009) -  American Defense Systems, Inc. (ADSI) (&lt;exchange name="NYSE Amex"&gt;NYSE Amex&lt;/exchange&gt;: &lt;ticker name="EAG"&gt;EAG&lt;/ticker&gt;), a leading provider of advanced transparent and opaque armor,
architectural hardening and security products for Defense and Homeland
Security, has introduced a new portable transparent protective shield
called "COBRA," for Collapsible Optic Bullet Resistant Armor.
&lt;p&gt;
The COBRA is designed primarily for the purpose of VIP protection with its
ability to easily roll through standard doorways and onto elevators. The
design provides broader coverage than ADSI's Portable Transparent Ballistic
Shield ("PTBS"), while being more portable than the PTBS due to its
collapsible capability. This also allows for more potential applications,
like in a VIP's hotel room, at public speaking engagements, and for outer
perimeter security enhancement.

            <description>OTTAWA, ONTARIO--(Marketwire - 23 nov. 2009) - Le Bureau de la concurrence a annoncé aujourd'hui qu'une entreprise établie au Manitoba, Elkhorn Ranch &amp; Resorts Ltd. (Elkhorn), qui vend des multipropriétés de villégiature, a convenu de payer 170 000 $ pour avoir organisé des concours publicitaires trompeurs.

Au terme d'une enquête sur les concours publicitaires d'Elkhorn en 2006 et 2007, le Bureau a conclu que l'entreprise a organisé des concours sans divulguer loyalement les chances exactes de gagner et sans veiller à ce que les gagnants soient sélectionnés au hasard. Les concours d'Elkhorn ont en outre donné faussement l'impression que le prix, s'il a effectivement été attribué, était un véhicule utilitaire sport (VUS) flambant neuf, alors qu'il s'agissait en réalité d'un crédit-bail sur un VUS d'une durée de un ou deux ans assorti de modalités strictes. Les concours étaient principalement associés à la promotion des multipropriétés d'Elkhorn dans l'Ouest canadien. Les consommateur</description>

            <link>http://www.marketwire.com/mw/release.do?id=1080877&amp;sourceType=3</link>
            <description>OTTAWA, ONTARIO--(Marketwire - Nov. 23, 2009) - The Competition Bureau announced today that Manitoba-based Elkhorn Ranch &amp; Resort Ltd. (Elkhorn), which sells time shares for vacation properties, has agreed to pay $170,000 for running misleading promotional contests.

After conducting an investigation into Elkhorn's 2006 and 2007 promotional contests, the Bureau concluded that the company had run contests without fair disclosure of accurate odds of winning and without ensuring that winners were selected on a random basis.  Elkhorn's contests also gave the misleading impression that the grand prize was a brand new SUV, when the prize, if awarded, was a one or two-year lease on an SUV, with stringent conditions. The contests were primarily associated with the marketing of Elkhorn's time share properties in Western Canada. Consumers were solicited by phone, at trade shows and at time share presentations.

         also serves Amtrak, Metrolink, Orange County Transit Authority
         buses and other commuter services. Passengers are dropped off and
         picked up at each Los Angeles International Airport (LAX)
         terminal.

            <title>Junk Science: Sierra Club of Canada Misleads the Public</title>
            <link>http://www.marketwire.com/mw/release.do?id=1080318&amp;sourceType=3</link>
            <description>OTTAWA, ONTARIO--(Marketwire - Nov. 20, 2009) - Contrary to the report issued today by the Sierra Club of Canada entitled "Tritium on Tap", the Canadian Nuclear Safety Commission (CNSC) would like to reassure members of the public that tritium levels in drinking water and the releases of Canada's nuclear industry poses no risk to their health. The CNSC would not licence a facility unless it was operating safely.

Tritium levels found in the municipal drinking water of the communities near nuclear facilities are well below national and international standards, and below the 20 Bq/L limit recently proposed by the Ontario Drinking Water Advisory Council.

            <description>OTTAWA, ONTARIO--(Marketwire - 20 nov. 2009) - Contrairement à ce qui est dit dans le rapport du Sierra Club du Canada intitulé Tritium on Tap (en anglais seulement) publié aujourd'hui, la Commission canadienne de sûreté nucléaire (CCSN) désire rassurer le public sur le fait que les niveaux de tritium dans l'eau potable et les rejets de l'industrie nucléaire du Canada ne posent pas de risque pour la santé. La CCSN ne délivre un permis qu'aux installations qui sont exploitées de façon sûre.

Les niveaux de tritium dans l'eau potable municipale de ces collectivités sont bien inférieurs aux normes nationales et internationales et en-deçà de la limite de 20 Bq/L proposée par le Ontario Drinking Water Advisory Council.

            <description>&lt;p&gt;PHILADELPHIA, PA--(Marketwire - November 20, 2009) -  Say hello to Botax, the 5% tax on cosmetic
procedures that was a surprise addition to the roughly 2,000 page health
care reform bill. The proposed tax, scheduled to take effect January 2010,
has been suggested as a way to help fund health care reform.
&lt;p&gt;
The tax applies to all surgeries that are "not necessary to ameliorate a
deformity arising from, or directly related to, a congenital abnormality, a
personal injury resulting from an accident or trauma, or disfiguring
disease."

            <title>Delaware River Waterfront Corporation Uses Civic Engagement Meeting to Present Initial Design Concepts for the New Race Street Pier Project</title>
            <link>http://www.marketwire.com/mw/release.do?id=1079804&amp;sourceType=3</link>
            <description>&lt;p&gt;PHILADELPHIA, PA--(Marketwire - November 19, 2009) -  Last night, the Delaware River Waterfront
Corporation (DRWC) in partnership with the Central Delaware Advocacy Group,
the Pennsylvania Horticultural Society and Penn Praxis of the University of
Pennsylvania hosted the first of four civic engagement meetings to present
the initial design concepts for the Race Street Pier, formerly called Pier
11. The Race Street Pier, located on Columbus Boulevard at the foot of Race
Street, is one of the first public spaces to be designed and built by DRWC
as an early action of the new Civic Vision for the Central Delaware
Riverfront -- a vision which was developed by Penn Praxis and the Central
Delaware Advocacy Group. The goal is to develop the pier into a publicly
accessible riverfront amenity for residents and tourists. The project has
been renamed the Race Street Pier in order to emphasize the location of the
park and its connection to the city.

&lt;p&gt;CALGARY, ALBERTA--(Marketwire -
Nov. 19, 2009) - Over
the past few days there has been significant media coverage and comments from
members of Calgary City Council about the Calgary Parking Authority (CPA).
Members of the CPA Board of Directors (Board) felt it was important to respond
to these comments and clear up several misconceptions.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Members of the CPA
Board are appointed by Calgary City Council. All recommendations presented by
the CPA Board for maximum rate increases must be approved by City Council.
The Board directed CPA General Manager Mr. Dale Fraser to develop some
suggestions on ways to increase CPA revenues. Mr. Fraser developed a list of
proposals that included higher fines, extended hours of service and increased
rates at the Calgary Impound Lot. Mr. Fraser was not asked to make
recommendation on which of those measures he feels should be implemented. &lt;/p&gt;

            <link>http://www.marketwire.com/mw/release.do?id=1079557&amp;sourceType=3</link>
            <description>OTTAWA, ONTARIO--(Marketwire - 19 nov. 2009) - Santé Canada informe les vétérinaires et propriétaires d'animaux que le médicament Caninsulin, utilisé pour traiter le diabète chez les chiens et les chats, peut être défectueux.

Caninsulin est un produit d'insuline à action prolongée obtenue par cristallisation en présence de Zinc (agent stabilisateur) dont la formulation peut contenir cette forme d'insuline en diverses concentrations, dans le but de retarder l'action de l'insuline et d'en prolonger les effets. Certains produits présentent des problèmes de stabilité, ce qui peut affecter la gestion des maladies chroniques et entraîner des fluctuations imprévisibles du niveau de glucose chez l'animal traité.

            <description>OTTAWA, ONTARIO--(Marketwire - Nov. 19, 2009) - Health Canada is alerting veterinarians and pet owners about a possible manufacturing problem with Caninsulin, a drug used to treat diabetes in dogs and cats.

Caninsulin is an insulin zinc suspension product that may have varying amounts of crystalline zinc insulin in the formulation. This could cause a delay in insulin action and an overall longer duration of insulin activity. Products having significant problems with stability can affect the management of chronic diseases and in this case could lead to unpredictable fluctuations in the glucose levels of the treated animals.

            <link>http://www.marketwire.com/mw/release.do?id=1077928&amp;sourceType=3</link>
            <description>DARTMOUTH, NOVA SCOTIA--(Marketwire - Nov. 17, 2009) - On November 17, 2009 the decommissioned destroyer-escort Gatineau will be towed to Pictou, Nova Scotia, where the final stages of disposal will take place. The Terra Nova is scheduled to follow on November 20, 2009. Both tow dates are weather dependent and subject to change.

A contract for the removal and dismantling of the destroyer-escorts was awarded to AECON FABCO on October 21, 2009, and is valued at approximately $4.2 million. The survey of the two decommissioned destroyer-escorts conducted by AECON FABCO progressed ahead of schedule, allowing the ships to be removed from Dartmouth earlier then anticipated.

            <description>DARTMOUTH, NOUVELLE-ECOSSE--(Marketwire - 17 nov. 2009) - Le 17 novembre 2009, le destroyer d'escorte hors service Gatineau sera remorqué jusqu'à Pictou (Nouvelle-Ecosse), où auront lieu les dernières étapes de l'aliénation. Ce sera ensuite le tour du Terra Nova, le 20 novembre 2009. Les opérations de remorquage auront lieu au moment prévu si le temps le permet. Il est donc possible que les dates changent.

Un contrat d'une valeur d'environ 4,2 millions de dollars a été attribué le 21 octobre 2009 à l'entreprise AECON FABCO pour le déplacement et le démantèlement des destroyers d'escorte. L'inspection des deux destroyers d'escorte menée par AECON FABCO a progressé plus rapidement que prévu, permettant ainsi de les retirer de Dartmouth plus tôt.
