myPhotopipe.com Announces Early Launch of Three Technology Platforms
--Company Expands Digital Photo Processing Production Capacity
ATLANTA, Oct 20, 2009 -- myPhotopipe.com, Inc. (Pink Sheets: MPPC) today announced the early completion of its new suite of online ordering platforms. Wholesale orders began flowing through the Company's new Application Programming Interface (API) last week, ahead of the expected release date, completing a technology upgrade to make myPhotopipe.com accessible through more online ordering venues and portals.
The Company partnered with New York software development firm Photogra to co-market a new "green screen" ordering process, a new online ordering system, and the API.
"We're like a labyrinth of digital pipes, with order entry points throughout the digital spectrum," noted myPhotopipe.com President Pete Casabonne. "Orders are now flowing through these new pipes to the tune of hundreds of new orders a week. Equally important, our diversification into green screen technologies for entertainment and sports venues has been successfully tested at two major sporting events, and our Xpress browser-based ordering system has proven that in the digital age 'fast, easy and fun' make an enormous difference. Xpress already accounts for roughly 12% of our total online business, an impressive statistic following what amounts to just weeks of beta testing." The Company recently completed the installation of a new Xerox 700 to add folded greeting cards, model composites and other "press-printed" products to its product offerings. "Photographic printing is entirely one-sided," stated Casabonne. "Today we can achieve photographic quality on press-printed products, which allows us to print two-sided. Two-sided printing opens the door to new product categories, such as folded greeting cards, model composites, and more. These represent new revenue silos and gain us entry into two of the fastest-growing segments of our industry." The new API platforms allow the Company to service front-end retailers and branded Internet sites that offer digital print processing as part of their service packages.
About myPhotopipe.com, Inc.
myPhotopipe.com, Inc. is a web-based online provider of digital photo processing, photo finishing, photo-sharing, and related services. The Company's unique blend of 1000 print options, combined with manual print inspections and professional color management, have positioned myPhotopipe.com as one of the fastest-growing providers of digital photography services for professionals and serious amateurs.
The Company is headquartered in Atlanta, Georgia, and its common stock is listed on the OTC Pink Sheets under the symbol "MPPC". Additional information is available on the Internet at www.myPhotopipe.com.

American Sierra Gold Corp. Signs Final Agreement to Acquire High-Grade Discovery Day Gold Project
RENO, NV, Oct 20, 2009 -- American Sierra Gold Corp. (OTCBB: AMNP), an independent gold exploration company headquartered in Reno, Nevada, is pleased to announce that it has signed the final joint venture agreement with Trinity Alps Resources, Inc. to acquire a 75% stake in the high-grade Discovery Day Gold Project. This agreement follows from negotiations based on the Letter of Intent as announced October 7, 2009.
The Discovery Day Gold Project covers over 950 acres and controls the entire Knownothing Mining District in northern California, which includes the four principal mines -- the Gilta, Discovery Day, Hansen, and Knownothing and several other smaller mines and prospects. An ore reserve estimate from 1996 published study by Cooksley Geophysical, Inc. reported a total inferred resource of 1,165,000 ounces of gold, of which over 157,000 ounces were considered to be in the proven and probable categories. The Company will need to re-evaluate historical data and carry out additional exploratory work on the numerous targets available to take the property's resource to a mineable category.
"We are extremely pleased to sign the joint venture agreement, and thus initiate the process of developing the mine. We expect the first year work plan to be approved shortly and allow us to initiate preparatory work for drilling. The turnkey mine and processing facilities, which include a 100 tpd ore mill, are fully permitted for on-site production through 2016 with all environmental impact studies and necessary operational permits completed and approved," said Mr. Wayne Gruden, American Sierra's CEO.
"More than 7 million ounces of gold have been recovered from placer and gold-quartz veins in the Klamath Mountains province of California - Oregon, and we believe that we are well positioned to identify the next large mine in this historically rich region. Past production records show mining runs averaging 12.06 ounces of gold per ton. With proven past production and the high impact prospects, American Sierra is well poised to provide shareholder value at a time of near record gold prices," added Mr. Gruden.
Under the terms of the joint venture agreement, American Sierra has agreed to invest US$2 million in the property over a period of 2 years in order to earn a 75% stake in the project. In addition, American Sierra agreed to issue 2 million shares and 2 million 5-year warrants of AMNP's stock to the vendor of the project over the same period. The warrant package offered, if exercised, could result in an additional $2.5 million of funding available to the Company.

Cereplast to Transform Algae into Bioplastics
Breakthrough Technology Could Eventually Replace 50% or More of Petroleum-Based Plastics Content with Algae-Based Resins
HAWTHORNE, Calif., Oct 20, 2009 -- Cereplast, Inc. (OTCBB:CERP), manufacturer of proprietary bio-based sustainable plastics, announced that it has been developing a breakthrough technology to transform algae into bioplastics and intends to launch a new family of algae-based resins that will complement the company's existing line of Compostables(R) & Hybrid(R) resins.
Cereplast algae-based resins could replace 50% or more of the petroleum content used in traditional plastic resins. Currently, Cereplast is using renewable material such as starches from corn, tapioca, wheat and potatoes and Ingeo(R) PLA.
"Our algae research has shown promising results and we believe that in the months to come we should be able to launch this new family of algae-based resins," stated Frederic Scheer, Founder, Chairman and CEO of Cereplast. "Algae-based resins represent an outstanding opportunity for companies across the plastic supply chain to become more environmentally sustainable and reduce the industry's reliance on oil. We are still in the development phase, but we believe that this breakthrough technology could result in a significant new line of business in the years to come." "Based on our own efforts, as well as recent commitments by major players in the algae field, we believe that algae has the potential to become one of the most important "green" feedstocks for biofuels, as well as bioplastics," continued Mr. Scheer. "Clearly, our focus will be on bioplastics. However, for our algae-based resins to be successful, we require the production of substantial quantities of algae feedstock. We are very encouraged when we see big players entering the algae production business, including Exxon's $600 million investment in Synthetic Genomics and BP's $10 million investment in Martek Biosciences." Cereplast has initiated contact with several companies that plan to use algae to minimize the CO2 and NOX gases from polluting smoke-stack environments. Algae from a typical photo-bioreactor is harvested daily and may be treated as biomass, which can be used as biofuel or as a raw material source for biopolymer feed stock. The company is also in direct communication with potential chemical conversion companies that could convert the algae biomass into viable monomers for further conversion into potential biopolymers. "Algae as biomass makes sense in that it helps close the loop on polluting gases and can be a significant renewable resource," added Mr. Scheer.

(OTCBB:CERP) designs and manufactures proprietary bio-based, sustainable plastics which are used as substitutes for petroleum-based plastics in all major converting processes - such as injection molding, thermoforming, blow molding and extrusions - at a pricing structure that is competitive with petroleum-based plastics.
