Craig A. Waltzer, Chief Executive Officer for Aventura, said, ''The IPTV broadcast technology acquired by Aventura from IPWebTV, Inc.

The bellwethers such as Cisco, Microsoft, Alcatel and Motorola have all launched product offerings on the hardware, software or solution side of the equation.''

Waltzer further stated, ''According to an Infonetics Research report, worldwide subscribers are predicted to swell to 53 million by 2009 with service providers investing rapidly on IPTV content and transport equipment. The Infonetics report projects in 2009, $26 billion in capex expenditures for IPTV infrastructure.''

Waltzer concluded: ''The Company anticipates immediately generating revenues as it has a ready-for-market solution. At the early stages, sales of the product shall focus on back-end operations, by providing testing and verification hardware and software solutions to broadcasters and carriers in the IPTV space. We believe that this niche market provides several unique opportunities for Aventura to grow out the business model. The Company will continue to seek out strategic opportunities domestically and abroad and team with other industry leaders to build on its newest platform of product offerings and expand that research to include content delivery systems.''

The purchase price for the transaction is five hundred (500) Shares of Non-Voting Convertible $0.001 Par Value Preferred Stock (the ''Preferred Stock'') of the Company. The Preferred Stock is convertible into 500 Million Shares of the Company's Common Stock.

Martin project in Morgan County, Tennessee in which it holds a 20% working interest. The operators for these wells, TMD Energy Inc., stated that the Citizens Gas Utility District have recently reconfigured the gas pipelines to allow gas from the wells to enter its system. A compressor has also been installed to increase production volume.

Magellan Energy is pleased to announce that the Martin lease is a mature producing oil and gas property that is being prepared for waterflooding. This ongoing project with TMD Energy Inc. will take some time to complete but with the newly installed compressor we will have increased gas production and revenue for Magellan Energy Ltd. The water flood project must still be subject to further research, geological surveys and studies to be properly executed. Until such time is determined, the wells will continue to operate at their new capacity, generating revenue with the new lines.

Magellan Energy's President, Mr. Akrivos, said, "We are very pleased at the progress that has been made up to date on the Martin project which will take some time to properly execute. TMD Energy Inc. has done an excellent job ensuring the wells maintain production and we are extremely happy to be working with them. This is our company's second successful project in Tennessee, thus establishing Magellan as a reputable, revenue-producing company in the oil and gas industry. In addition, we are in the final stages of developing a third project in Tennessee, which will be announced in the near future."

About Magellan Energy: Magellan Energy is a publicly traded independent oil and gas company. The company is actively acquiring oil and gas leases, producing properties, mineral rights, and surface interests in Tennessee and Oklahoma. Once acquired, the company intends to develop each property to maximize the income from each property by re-establishing production, refurbishing and improving the existing production and operations.

Deep Down, Inc. (OTCBB: DPDW) (December 19, 2007, 12:24pm ET) Deep Down, Inc. announced that it has signed a definitive purchase agreement to purchase Mako Technologies, Inc. ("Mako"). Headquartered in Morgan City, Louisiana, Mako serves the growing offshore petroleum and marine industries with technical support services, and products vital to offshore petroleum production, through rentals of its remotely operated vehicles (ROV), topside and subsea equipment, and diving support systems used in diving operations, maintenance and repair operations, offshore construction, and environmental/marine surveys.

"The total cost of acquiring Mako is a maximum of $5.0 million in cash and 11,269,841 shares of common stock of Deep Down based on Mako management's expectation of $2,400,000 in earnings before depreciation, interest, amortization, taxes and other non-cash charges ("EBITDA"), after also adjusting for certain non-recurring expenses, for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2007. As part of this acquisition, Deep Down will also pay off approximately $800,000 in Mako bank debt. The first installment of $2,916,667 in cash and 6,574,074 shares of common stock of Deep Down is expected to be paid at closing within the next few days, and the balance of up to $2,083,333 in cash and 4,695,767 shares of common stock of Deep Down will be paid upon completion of an audit to verify adjusted EBITDA expectations for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2007," commented Robert E. Chamberlain, Jr., Deep Down's Chairman.

"We are very pleased to have signed the acquisition agreement with Mako, and believe this non-dilutive transaction is extremely beneficial for Deep Down and our shareholders as we continue to add products and services to our portfolio of capabilities," commented Ron E. Smith, Deep Down's President and CEO. "We believe we can significantly enhance Mako's current annual revenue base of approximately $6.8 million by expanding the equipment rental pool and ROV fleet."

"An expansion of the ROV fleet can yield benefits beyond increased rental income, including increased service revenue from two and three man ROV operating crews and the opportunity to sell additional launch and retrieval systems ("LARS"). Prospect Capital Corporation is providing $6,000,000 in debt to fund the cash requirements and expenses associated with this transaction. Terms are substantially the same as those in the initial borrowing that was concluded in August 2007," said Eugene L. Butler, Deep Down's CFO.

"With Deep Down's relationships and access to capital, we foresee the ability to expand our ROV fleet and take advantage of our customers' growing need for both planned and "emergency" offshore rental equipment in support of their growing level of oil and gas exploration occurring in the Gulf of Mexico. We also plan to expand our operations internationally," commented Jacob Marcell, Mako Technologies' chief executive officer.

As previously announced, he will be stepping down from his operating position at JumpTV on or before January 8th, 2008, but will remain on the board of that company.

ROO also announced that four independent members of the company's board of directors -- Simon Bax, Stephen Palley, Scott Ackerman and Doug Chertok -- have resigned. The Company's Board of Directors is expected to appoint Isaza Tuzman as a Director and the Chairman of the Board of Directors. Upon Mr. Isaza Tuzman's appointment, the Board will consist of three directors which will include current board members Robert Petty and Robin Smyth, Executive Director. In accordance with the terms of an Executive Management Agreement, Isaza Tuzman will have the right to appoint up to four new independent board members to fill vacancies on the Board of Directors, subject to shareholder approval.

Mr. Isaza Tuzman stated, "ROO is at an inflection point in its development. The massive growth in the demand for high-value, IP video content, coupled with the need for leading edge platform provisioning puts this company in a very enviable position. I believe that with greater emphasis on exclusive content, TV broadcaster relationships and the best quality distribution tools, ROO will become the leading player in the provisioning of video over the Internet. In my view, a focused B2B strategy is what is needed to build a profitable company in the sector. ROO's commitment to this path -- coupled with our shared vision of potential industry consolidation -- has been critical to my decision to invest in and manage the company."

As part of the strategic realignment, ROO also announced today that it has completed a recent reduction of 21% of its workforce. This decision reflects the substantial completion of ROO's platform and automated distribution tools, which have made the company more efficient and reduced staffing needs.

"ROO has now entered a new phase of development," said Robert Petty, Chairman of ROO. "We have substantially automated our operations, allowing us to function as a leaner, more effective company."

Universal Uranium Ltd. (TSX VENTURE: UUL)(December 19, 2007) and Silver Spruce Resources Inc. (TSX VENTURE: SSE) announced that the definition drilling program for the resource calculation at the Two Time zone has been completed. Two drills completed the program and the camp was shut down for the Christmas break on December 15. The infill, definition drilling, was carried out in preparation for a NI 43-101 compliant resource estimate to be prepared by Scott Wilson Roscoe Postle Associates Inc. (SWRPA) early in 2008. The 18-hole program, totaling approximately 3,000 meters, was carried out in November and December 2007. Analytical results for the drilling are pending and will be released as received in January 2008.

At this time last year, December 2006, the joint venture had just completed the first drilling on the Two Time zone - holes CMB-07-1 to 5 - for 812 metres. With the completion of the definition drilling, the joint venture has now completed a total of 11,190.6 metres of drilling in DDH's 1 to 41. Forty of these holes (CMB-07-1 to 23 and 25-41), totalling 10,922.6 metres, tested the Two Time zone and one hole (CMB-07-24) tested a RadonEx soil gas anomaly to the north of the zone.

Drilling is planned to resume in the second week of January 2008. At that time, one drill will be utilized to evaluate the extensions of the Two Time Zone to depth and on strike to the north and south. The second drill will focus on the newly discovered Firestone Zone (see news release dated October 17, 2007) and other targets on the CMBNW property.

The Two Time Zone has been traced over a strike length of approximately 475 metres, from 2+75 N to 2+00 S, and remains open to the north and south along strike and to depth. The host for the mineralization is an altered, brecciated and fractured intrusive, monzodiorite to diorite, with extensive chlorite, carbonate, hematite and albite alteration. The orientation of the mineralization appears to be near vertical to steeply dipping.

Constitution Mining Corp. (OTCBB: CMIN) (December 19, 2007) announced earlier today the acquisition of an option agreement positioning the company to acquire a 100% interest in two highly prospective gold zones, collectively known as the Atena Gold Project ("Atena").

Atena, presently owned by Rio Tinto Mining & Exploration Ltd., S.A., is situated in the heart of a rapidly developing mining district in Argentina well known for hosting large gold deposits.

Recursos Maricunga S.A. optioned Atena in 2003 from Rio Tinto enabling it to acquire 100% of Atena by making periodic cash payments and satisfying certain exploration commitments. It is that option-to-purchase agreement with Rio Tinto and all the underlying obligations and rights that are now the property of Constitution Mining Corp.

The Atena Gold Project covers an area of 3,676 hectares in Salta Province, Northwestern Argentina. The property lies at 3700 meters above sea level and comprises a gold-rich epithermal polymetallic vein system, which forms part of a larger mineral district that includes several known porphyry deposits and mineral occurrences.

Atena comprises some 80 quartz veins with a combined strike of over 11 km. The veins were first prospected by a local prospector in the mid-1950s who opened up a few trenches and pits. The vein system was rediscovered and staked by Rio Tinto during their porphyry and epithermal gold exploration campaign in 2003. When Rio Tinto decided to get out of gold exploration, the exploration-with-option-to-purchase rights were acquired by Recursos Maricunga, a privately owned Argentine exploration company.

Constitution Mining is committed to preserving and developing wealth by consistently increasing the total value of honest money -- gold and silver -- underlying the number of shares we have outstanding. Constitution Mining is focused on acquiring small and midsize deposits of gold and silver at a discount to their in-the-ground values. In some cases, the known resources may be fully defined and in others, the deposits may offer additional potential for resource expansion. The company also intends to explore for larger size gold and silver deposits on advanced exploration projects. Additional information about Constitution Mining Corporation may be obtained at www.ConstitutionMining.com About Rio Tinto Rio Tinto is a leading international mining group, combining Rio Tinto plc, a London listed public company headquartered in the UK, and Rio Tinto Limited, which is listed on the Australian Stock Exchange, with executive offices in Melbourne. Its activities span the world but are strongly represented in Australia and North America. There are also significant businesses in South America, Asia, Europe and southern Africa.
