October 5 - Black Dragon Announces a Joint Venture Starting the Week of October 8, 2007

(PINKSHEETS: BDGR | charts | news | PowerRating) ("the Company," "the Dragon") announced today that Dragon and a Working Interest Holder are going to reevaluate a gas and oil well drilled in the early 90s but never fraced. The reason behind the re-evaluation is a well drilled six months ago, close to Dragon's No. 67 and fraced, was a success. The plan is if this frace on Well No. 67 is successful, there are 9 other gas wells never fraced, just shot, that can be reevaluated.

The goal is the well will produce 18 more barrels of oil a day and 150,000 mcf of gas.

18 barrels x 30 days = 540 barrels x $76.00 = $41,040.00/2 = $20,520.00 x 73% net revenue = $14,979.60 per month.

150,000 mcf x 30 days = 4,500,000 x 6.55 = $29,475.00/2 = 14,737.50 x 73% net revenue = $10,758.37 x 91% net gas = $9,790.11 per month.

$24,769.71 for 50% of one well x 10 wells could equal $247,697.10 or more additional revenue per month. Management stated if the first well comes in, the rest could be finished up in November.

October 8 - AVANIR Granted Special Protocol Assessment (SPA) From FDA for Confirmatory Phase III Trial of Zenvia in Patients With PBA

AVANIR Pharmaceuticals (NASDAQ:AVNR) today announced that it has reached a definitive agreement with the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA), under the Special Protocol Assessment (SPA) process, on the design of a single confirmatory Phase III clinical trial of Zenvia (dextromethorphan/quinidine [DM/Q]) for the treatment of patients with pseudobulbar affect (PBA).

"We now have a clear path toward gaining regulatory approval for Zenvia in this important indication and continue on track to begin patient enrollment in this trial before 2007 calendar year end," said Randall Kaye, MD, Chief Medical Officer of AVANIR. "We have developed an alternative formulation of Zenvia with a lower dose of the quinidine component than the formulation used in earlier PBA studies. Based on our extensive PK/PD modeling, we expect that the new formulation of Zenvia will demonstrate acceptable safety and tolerability, while continuing to provide significant efficacy."

"The STAR trial represents an important milestone for greater than one million Americans thought to suffer from the debilitating episodes of PBA," said Jeffrey Cummings, MD, Executive Vice Chair of the Department of Neurology at the David Geffen School of Medicine at UCLA and lead investigator of the STAR trial. "With no currently approved treatment options available, the STAR trial is an essential step toward making Zenvia available to patients with PBA."
