The primary reason for the decrease in other income was the decrease of $152,000, or 52.05%, in net gains on loans sold into the secondary market to $140,000 for the year ended December 31, 2010 as compared to $292,000 for the year ended December 31, 2009. In 2010, Mutual Savings Bank sold $9.7 million of loans into the secondary market as compared to $14.2 million of such sales in 2009.

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p> <!--Start--><br />
<a href="http://www.publicwire.com" target="_new">(PublicWire.com News Release)</a>&nbsp;Robert D. Heuchan, President and CEO of <strong>Third Century Bancorp</strong> (<a target="_new" href="http://www.top10hotteststocks.com/stock/tdcb">OTCBB: TDCB</a>), the holding company of Mutual Savings Bank, announced that for the year ended December 31, 2010, the company reported a net loss of $2.1 million compared with a net loss of $233,000 for the year ended December 31, 2009.</p>
<p>The net losses reported in 2010 and 2009 primarily resulted from the recorded provisions for loan losses of $3.2 million and $1.4 million, respectively. The provision in 2010 was primarily due to the write-off of $1.3 million in commercial participation loans and the effects of the on-going economic downturn, particularly as they relate to weaknesses in commercial real estate loans. In evaluating the adequacy of loan loss allowances, management considers factors such as delinquency trends, portfolio composition, past loss experience and other factors such as general economic conditions, which deteriorated dramatically during the fourth quarter of 2008 and continued to deteriorate throughout the first half of 2010. For the year ended December 31, 2010, Mutual Savings Bank charged-off loans, net of recoveries, of $1.9 million which represents an increase of $1.1 million, or 150.21%, from the year ended December 31, 2009. Of the $1.9 million charged-off for the year ended December 31, 2010, $1.7 million was the result of losses in the Bank’s commercial real estate portfolio. At December 31, 2010, management classified approximately $10.4 million in loans as impaired in the calculation of the allowance for loan losses compared to $5.0 million identified as of December 31, 2009. At December 31, 2010 and 2009, the Bank’s nonperforming assets as a percentage of total assets was 11.18% and 4.38%, respectively.</p>
<p>Other income decreased $335,000, or 25.95%, to $956,000 in 2010 from $1.3 million in 2009. The primary reason for the decrease in other income was the decrease of $152,000, or 52.05%, in net gains on loans sold into the secondary market to $140,000 for the year ended December 31, 2010 as compared to $292,000 for the year ended December 31, 2009. In 2010, Mutual Savings Bank sold $9.7 million of loans into the secondary market as compared to $14.2 million of such sales in 2009.</p>
<p>General, administrative and other expenses (non-interest expense) increased $589,000 or 11.12% to $5.9 million during 2010 from $5.3 million during 2009. The increase in non-interest expense was primarily due to two events. First, at December 31, 2010, the Bank performed an evaluation of goodwill recorded on its books and determined it to be fully impaired. As a result, the Bank recorded an impairment of $239,000 to fully write off goodwill. Second, the Bank closed its Franklin Central branch in June 2010 and listed the property for sale. The Bank obtained an appraisal on the property to determine its market value. The appraised value for the Franklin Central branch was less than value recorded on the Bank’s books. As a result, the Bank recorded a loss on assets held for sale of $471,000.</p>
<p>Total assets decreased $10.6 million to $118.2 million at December 31, 2010 from $128.8 million at December 31, 2009, a decrease of 8.26%. The decrease in assets was primarily the result of a decrease in net loans receivable of $12.6 million, or 11.75%, to $94.9 million at December 31, 2010 from $107.6 million at December 31, 2009. During 2010, one-to-four family residential mortgages declined $5.2 million, or 11.37%, and land development and construction loans decreased $4.9 million, or 33.47%. During 2010, many consumers refinanced their one-to-four family residential mortgages into lower fixed-rate loan products with longer maturities, which were subsequently sold by the Bank on the secondary market. In addition, the demand for land development and construction loans diminished due to the decline in housing demand and the overall economy. The allowance for loan losses increased to $3.5 million at December 31, 2010 from $2.1 million at December 31, 2009. The Bank increased the provision for loan losses based on a review of the structure of the current loan portfolio, the loans charged-off in 2010 and continued concerns about the economy.</p>
<p>Deposits decreased to $89.0 million at December 31, 2010 from $94.0 million at December 31, 2009, a decrease of $5.0 million or 5.37%. Time deposits decreased $5.9 million, or 16.43%, to $30.1 million at December 31, 2010 from $36.0 million at December 31, 2009. Demand deposits increased $1.1 million, or 9.18%, to $12.9 million at December 31, 2010 from $11.8 million at December 31, 2009.</p>
<p>Federal Home Loan Bank advances and other borrowings decreased $3.5 million, or 20.00%, to $14.0 million at December 31, 2010 from $17.5 million at December 31, 2009. The Bank repaid $3.5 million in Federal Home Loan Bank during 2010.</p>
<p>Stockholders’ equity decreased $2.1 million to $14.9 million at December 31, 2009 from $17.0 million at December 31, 2009. Equity as a percentage of assets decreased 0.55% to 12.63% at December 31, 2010 compared to 13.18% at December 31, 2009. The Company previously announced that the Board of Directors has suspended quarterly dividend payments until the Company achieves an acceptable level of earnings performance.</p>

<a href="http://www.publicwire.com" target="_new">(PublicWire.com News Release)</a>&nbsp;<strong>MacroSolve, Inc.</strong> (<a target="_new" href="http://www.top10hotteststocks.com/stock/mcve">OTCQB:MCVE</a>),In a move to monetize its recently awarded landmark patent addressing the estimated $10 billion mobile app market,  has launched its patent enforcement efforts by filing suit against the following companies for infringement of U.S. Patent No. 7,822,816:</p>
<p>    Blue Shoe Mobile Solutions, LLC<br />
    Brazos Technology Corporation<br />
    On The Spot Systems, Inc.<br />
    Formstack, LLC</p>
<p>On October 26, 2010, the United States Patent and Trademark Office issued U.S. Patent No. 7,822,816 to MacroSolve. The patent, a significant intellectual property (IP) asset to MacroSolve, further advances its position as a leader in the mobile solutions market. The patent addresses mobile information collection systems across all wireless networks, smartphones, tablets, and rugged mobile devices, regardless of carrier and manufacturer, and is currently utilized in MacroSolve’s ReForm XT rapid mobile app development platform. MacroSolve&#8217;s patent covers fundamental technology in the mobile application space utilized by multiple companies.</p>
<p>MacroSolve is represented by two law firms that specialize in patent litigation and enforcement, Houston-based Antonelli, Harrington &#038; Thompson, and Longview, Texas-based Spangler Law. Both firms are retained solely on a contingency basis and thus will be compensated only based upon proceeds from settlement and licensing activities. The law firms have led IP monetization efforts which involved some of the largest technology companies in the world.</p>
<p>MacroSolve&#8217;s patent enforcement efforts are led by its Chairman of the Board, Mr. Jim McGill. Mr. McGill has spent the past 20 years consulting with companies on patent litigation issues with a focus on how to best monetize their IP.</p>
<p>&#8220;I look forward to applying my many years of experience in IP monetization to MacroSolve’s patent enforcement efforts. We believe the strength of our patent and the viability of our monetization strategy will lead to the creation of greater value for our shareholders,&#8221;" stated MacroSolve Chairman, Jim McGill.</p>

(<a target="_new" href="http://www.top10hotteststocks.com/stock/efir">OTCBB: EFIR</a>) and its wholly-owned subsidiary, Energy Producers, Inc., is pleased to announce that it is in the final stages of completing an accredited private equity exchange funding for $2.5 million dollars in order to initiate the commencement of its oil and gas development plans for the first quarter 2011.</p>
<p>The financing had been negotiated through a Memorandum Of Understanding with Dutchess Capital late in 2010. Under the terms of the planned agreement, the Company will acquire the J.B.

<p>Dennis Alexander, EGPI&#8217;s Chairman and CEO, stated, &#8220;We are extremely pleased with the future outlook of EGPI Firecreek&#8217;s Oil &#038; Gas division.

Construction and Intelligent Traffic System markets through South Atlantic Traffic, Inc. (SATCO) alongside its wholly owned subsidiary M3 Lighting, Inc. (M3), and on oil and gas production with an emphasis on acquiring existing fields with proven reserves, the rehabilitation of potentially high throughput oilfields, resource properties and inventories, through its wholly owned subsidiary Energy Producers, Inc., and for oil and gas servicing business through its wholly owned subsidiary Chanwest Resources, LLC.

(the &#8220;Company&#8221;) (<a target="_new" href="http://www.top10hotteststocks.com/stock/fxit">OTCBB:FXIT</a>), a company, through its affiliates, is principally engaged in offering a web-based foreign currency trading platform to non-US residents, professionals and retail clients, together with a third party today announced that it has entered into a Letter of Intent (&#8221;LOI&#8221;) to acquire up to 40.1% equity interest in Nexus Capital Ltd. (&#8221;Nexus&#8221;), a U.K. regulated investment advisory firm specializing in contracts for difference (&#8221;CFD&#8221;), foreign exchange, spread trading and share dealing. In addition, the LOI provides that Lanatech Limited (an unrelated third party) may acquire up to 9.9% equity interest in Nexus.</p>
<p>In recent years, CFDs have grown in global appeal to retail investors as an investment vehicle that allows for the small investor to put less capital at risk to participate in movements in larger blocks of securities. Similar to its strategy in the Forex market, the Company is seeking global exposure (non-US residents) to the CFD market, where retail investors overseas are increasingly finding this an attractive method to invest.</p>
<p>&#8220;We are continuing to build our company through acquisitions that fit our growth strategy. Nexus gives us the ability to expand our opportunities outside of the U.S. as we look to establish a presence in the CFD markets overseas,&#8221; stated Darren Dunckel, CEO of Forex International Trading Corp. &#8220;We believe this acquisition could generate a great deal of interest in our state-of-the-art retail trading platform as we give our international clients the ability to trade forex and contracts for difference. We anticipate the due diligence process and review process by the Financial Services Authority to take approximately 45 to 60 days.&#8221;</p>
<p>Max Asmelash, Director of Nexus Capital stated, &#8220;As a company authorized by the Financial Services Authority (FSA) throughout the European Union, Nexus is a licensed and regulated firm and we have been seeking to partner with an organization like Forex International Trading to expand our business. Through this transaction we will have available to us a powerful web-based trading platform solution that will allow us to cross market both our CFD offering and our forex offering to an international retail client base. We look forward to working together in building a global power house online trading firm.&#8221;</p>
<p>The letter of intent for the most part is non-binding on the parties. The acquisition is subject to certain requirements including due diligence, approval from the FSA, execution of a mutually-acceptable definitive purchase agreement and various other customary conditions. Accordingly, no assurances can be made that the transaction will be consummated.</p>
<p>About Nexus Capital Ltd.</p>
<p>Established in 2008, Nexus Capital is a boutique specialist firm, engaged in offering retail investors the opportunity to open specialized accounts to trade contracts for difference product. Nexus, authorized by the Financial Services Authority in the U.K. in May 2009, is a licensed investment advisory firm specializing in contracts for difference (&#8221;CFD&#8221;), forex, spread trading and share dealing to clients both in England, and across the European Union (the EU).

<a href="http://www.publicwire.com" target="_new">(PublicWire.com News Release)</a>&nbsp;Sierra Resource Group, Inc. has acquired a financing commitment, which the Company believes will enable it to begin the permitting process that is necessary prior to bringing the mine back into production. The Company is waiting for bids from a number of engineering firms. It expects to engage the winning bidder in the near future.</p>
<p> &#8220;We are pleased to have secured the financing needed for the permitting process,&#8221; said Patrick Champney, Chief Executive Officer. &#8220;This is an important step. We still must obtain sufficient funding to actually begin mine operations after acquiring the necessary permits.&#8221;</p>
<p>Sierra Resource Group, Inc. owns an 80% interest in the Chloride Copper Mine. The Chloride Copper Mine property consists of 37 unpatented lode mining claims and 12 mill site claims. It is located 24km northwest of Kingman, in the Wallapai District, Mohave County, Arizona. The open pit mine and the existing SX/EW processing plant operated at the site from 1995 before being idled in 1996 due to low copper prices. </p>
<p>The Chloride Copper Mine deposit is hosted by Late Tertiary conglomerates and, to a lesser extent, by Quaternary alluvium and Cretaceous granitic rocks. Copper mineralization at Chloride Copper Mine is in the form of mineralized lenses contained within a paleochannel approximately a few thousand feet long and up to 750 feet wide. The source of copper at Chloride Copper Mine is interpreted to be the low grade porphyry-type copper mineralization at Alum Wash, about 3.5 miles northeast of the Chloride Copper Mine deposit. The mineralization is characterized by dark blue to black rock similar to the Exotica deposit, a satellite of the huge Chuquicamata copper deposit in Chile. </p>
<p>About SIRG: SIERRA RESOURCE GROUP, INC. (OTC Bulletin Board:<a target="_new" href="http://www.top10hotteststocks.com/stock/sirg">SIRG.ob &#8211; News</a>) is U.S. based junior exploration and mining company committed to the exploration, discovery and development of copper, gold, silver, and other mineral resources.

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a href="http://www.publicwire.com" target="_new">(PublicWire.com News Release)</a>&nbsp;E-Trade (<a href="http://www.top10hotteststocks.com/stock/etfc" target="_new">ETFC</a>) is a takeover rumor in the options market, according to McMillan Analysis Corp., a money-management and trading advisory firm.</p>
<p>Speculators are buying lots of calls in anticipation the online discount broker is acquired by Charles Schwab (SCHW). There is no way to know if the rumor is true, or just another packet of lies spread by traders who own a bunch of E-Trade calls that they want to sell at a higher price to suckers who will believe anything.</p>
<p>On Wednesday, E-Trade traded 6,200 options, more than double the average volume of 2,601 contracts. Of Tuesday’s volume, 5,846 were calls, and only 357 were puts.</p>
<p>What makes me skeptical of the rumor is that E-Trade’s volatility declined, rather than increased. Rising volatility often means market makers are afraid of getting picked off by speculators with better information.</p>
<p>Anything could happen, but the E-Trade takeover rumor is probably just that.</p>

<a href="http://www.publicwire.com">(PublicWire.com Finance News Release)</a>&nbsp;Steele Financial Corporation and East Texas Financial Services, Inc.  (<a href="http://www.top10hotteststocks.com/stock/etfs">OTCBB:ETFS</a>) jointly announced that they have terminated their definitive agreement under which SFC was to have acquired ETFS, the parent of First Federal Bank Texas (the &#8220;Bank&#8221;). The parties decided it was in their mutual best interests to terminate the agreement after SFC informed ETFS that SFC believed ETFS had undergone a material adverse change due to a significant increase in the non-performing assets of the Bank.</p>
<p>Brandon T. Steele, Chairman of Steele Financial Corporation, commented: &#8220;We are obviously disappointed that this transaction will not be completed. Economic conditions have made the Bank&#8217;s operating environment extraordinarily difficult. Although our definitive agreement has been terminated, I plan to remain a director of ETFS and the Bank, and look forward to continuing to work with the Bank&#8217;s management to improve asset quality and operating performance.&#8221;</p>
<p>Derrell W. Chapman, President and Chief Executive Officer of ETFS and the Bank, said: &#8220;We too are disappointed that this transaction will not occur. While, like many institutions, our performance has suffered due to the current operating environment, our capital position remains strong. The Bank continues to be &#8216;well-capitalized&#8217; under regulatory capital guidelines, with ratios of total capital to risk-weighted assets, Tier 1 capital to risk-weighted assets and Tier 1 capital to adjusted total assets of 14.14%, 13.16% and 8.69%, respectively. We are fortunate to have Mr. Steele on our Board, as we believe he shares our vision and commitment to community banking and to the enhancement of the value of our franchise.&#8221;</p>
<p>First Federal Bank, Texas, a federal savings bank based in Tyler, Texas, was founded in 1923. First Federal Bank Texas operates from four office locations in Tyler and Gilmer, Texas. At June 30, 2010, ETFS had total consolidated assets of $236.4 million. </p>
