Jul 29, 2008 -- Disaboom (OTCBB: DSBO) (www.disaboom.com), the premier
online community for people touched by disability, today announced a
new partnership with worldwide hotel chain, Microtel Inns & Suites. The
hotel brand, which features accessible rooms, employees trained in
disability etiquette in each of its locations, and special amenities
for travelers with disabilities, will display banner advertising on
disaboom.com, offering people with disabilities an accessible
accommodation alternative for their travel needs.
"People with disabilities have to consider accessibility when planning
vacations, business trips and other travel," said Dr. Glen House,
founder of Disaboom. "Disaboom offers our users all the tools they need
to travel successfully and comfortably, including articles written by
travel experts, and blogs and bulletin boards where community members
can share experiences. Microtel's presence on the site complements
these resources by offering our members a comfortable travel
alternative with a company dedicated to accessibility."
Microtel has established standard prototypical designs in its hotels,
going beyond ADA-compliance guidelines to ensure that all hotels
feature 25% more designated rooms than required for guests with
disabilities. The hotel chain also offers Opening Doors(R) training for
disability etiquette to staff at each of its hotels. The Opening Doors
program teaches hospitality employees how to be friendly and helpful to
travelers with disabilities and special needs and also offers practical
service skills such as customer relations, operational procedures,
emergency and safety considerations, and an awareness of "people first"
terminology. In addition, each hotel features "Access Microtel"
accessibility guides, "Accessible Fitness" bags and Upper Body
Ergometers for guests with special needs.
"Reservations among travelers with disabilities at Microtel hotels
continue to grow, representing the increasing awareness and
acceptability of our hotels among these travelers," said Allison
Solomon, Microtel's Vice President of Electronic Marketing and
Distribution. "Our brand's continued commitment and ability to provide
quality, accessible accommodations and a service culture with trained
employees, designed to meet and exceed the needs of this market segment
-- coupled with the unique value proposition that Disaboom brings to
its members -- makes this partnership ideal."
With the partnership, Microtel joins existing Disaboom advertisers,
General Motors, Ford, RE/MAX and others, in offering accessible
alternatives for people with disabilities, a population with more than
54 million members and $250 billion in discretionary income.
"People with disabilities are looking for a resource where they can
find businesses that understand their preferences and purchase
decisions," said House. "Disaboom serves as a one-stop shop, whether
you are looking for accessible vehicles, hotel accommodations, or
restaurants and retailers who are accessible and accommodating to

Jul 29, 2008 -- Echo Therapeutics (OTCBB: ECTE) today announced
positive results of a clinical study of its Symphony(TM) Transdermal
Continuous Glucose Monitoring (tCGM) System in patients with Type 1 and
Type 2 Diabetes. Echo's non-invasive Symphony tCGM System consists of
its wireless transmission and transdermal biosensor technologies and
the Prelude(TM) SkinPrep System, which incorporates leading-edge,
needle-free skin permeation control. Echo's Symphony tCGM System is
designed to provide both diabetics and hospital patients with a
reliable, affordable, comfortable-to-wear, and easy-to-use, needle-free
continuous glucose monitoring device.
"This study represents another major advancement in our Prelude and
Symphony development programs," stated Patrick Mooney, M.D., Echo's
Chairman and CEO. "We have now successfully used Prelude, our new
needle-free skin preparation system, in combination with our
non-invasive Symphony tCGM technology. Data from this study demonstrate
that Symphony, using Prelude, is safe, accurate and reliable at
monitoring glucose levels. We look forward to continuing progress with
our Symphony development program throughout the year."
Study Design
After Prelude skin permeation, Symphony tCGM biosensors were applied to
ten subjects with Type 1 or Type 2 diabetes. Venous reference blood
samples were taken from intravenous lines at 15-minute intervals for 24
hours and measured on a YSI 2300STAT PLUS laboratory analyzer. At the
conclusion of the 24-hour observation period, the test skin sites were
inspected for redness or any other undesirable effects.
Analytical Methods
The primary statistical analysis tools used to evaluate the performance
of the Symphony tCGM System relative to the reference measurements were
the Clarke error grid, mean absolute relative difference (MARD) and
linear regression, each of which are widely used to evaluate the
performance of glucometers. The Clarke error grid is a plot of all data
pairs categorized into five discrete areas: A, B, C, D and E. The A and
B areas are the most clinically desirable zones and D and E are the
least clinically desirable zones. Devices with a higher combined A and
B zone percentage (closer to 100%) and lower combined D and E zone
percentage (closer to 0%) are considered to have better performance.
Continuous Glucose Monitoring (CGM) system performance, including tCGM
system performance, is competitive if at least ninety-five percent
(95%) of the data points fall within the combined A/B zones, along with
negligible or no data points in the combined D/E zones. Mean absolute
relative difference (MARD) is a standard error calculation tool that is
used to measure the average absolute value of the relative (or
percentage) difference between two measurements. A low MARD error,
below 20%, is generally considered competitive.
Study Results
Using 1,292 reference blood glucose measurements from the ten subjects
in the study, Clarke error grid analysis of the study data showed that
Echo's Symphony tCGM System had approximately 99% of the data in the
combined A/B zones, with 76.4% in the A zone and 22.4% in the B zone,
and only 0.2% and 0.9% in the C zone and D zone, respectively. The MARD
for the study was 13.8%. The correlation coefficient (R) for the data
was 0.89. There were no adverse events reported from Prelude skin
permeation or the Symphony tCGM biosensor.

Jul 29, 2008 -- Money4Gold Holdings, Inc., formerly known as Effective

a Share Exchange Agreement dated July 23, 2008, the Company has
completed a reverse-merger transaction with Money4Gold, Inc. The
Company is a public company trading on the Over The Counter Bulletin
Board ("OTC Bulletin Board") under the symbol EFPS. In connection with
the reverse merger, the Company changed its name from Effective
Profitable Software, Inc. to Money4Gold Holdings, Inc.
"With the merger completed and now with access to the U.S. capital

growth," said Hakan Koyuncu, CEO. "We are now focused on executing a
national multimedia marketing campaign for the Company's website,
Dollars4Gold.com, based on test-marketing results that have greatly
exceeded management's expectations."
Money4Gold Holdings, Inc., through its wholly owned subsidiary
Money4Gold, Inc., is at the forefront of a broad recycling trend and is

intermediaries and passing on the margin savings to customers.
Current high precious metals prices, combined with the economic
downturn, have led to a dramatic increase in the number of people
wanting to cash in their gold and other precious metal items. Now, the
convenience of the internet and the security and integrity of
Money4Gold's online and shipping procedures make a compelling business
model for serving these individuals better, and with higher payouts,
than in any earlier time, along with a robust margin for the Company.
"We expect current market conditions, augmented by our strong business
model, to substantially accelerate our strategic growth plans," said
Mr. Koyuncu.
About Money4Gold Holdings, Inc.
The Company's mission is to increase shareholder value by producing
gold, platinum and silver in increasing quantity, and without the risks
of mining, large capital costs or the attendant environmental and
political hazards. Management believes Money4Gold can offer the upside
potential of the thriving precious metals markets by the broad-scale
acquisition, recycling and production of gold, platinum and silver,
while concurrently providing a new level of service and payout to
individuals and groups wanting to sell their precious metals.
