The bond proceeds will be used to build plants which utilize the Company's patented Styro-Solve(TM) closed loop process for collecting and recycling EPS foam products, thereby greatly reducing the volume of EPS that is deposited into landfills across the country.
Co-Heads of the Jesup & Lamont Municipal Finance Division, Jim Dolan and John Calia, will have overall responsibility for the underwriting and marketing of the securities. Ken Hedrick, Head of Public Finance at Jesup & Lamont, will lead the banking team.

About Blue Earth Solutions, Inc:
Blue Earth Solutions offers a true environmentally friendly process that reduces EPS (Expanded Polystyrene) from landfills and other potentially hazardous sites and returns it to its original form making it possible to manufacture new polystyrene (Plastic) products. Blue Earth is a solution to the EPS waste problem as we are able to recycle it with our proprietary Biodegradable solution and recreate polystyrene pellets that we expect to sell for far less than new polystyrene pellets. With the significant increase in crude oil prices, plastic continues to increase in cost. Our Styro-Solve(TM) process can reduce the planets consumption of oil, a major part of polystyrene manufacturing, which further increases the value of our process. The majority of polystyrene products are currently not recycled because of a lack of suitable recycling facilities. Furthermore, when it is "recycled," it is not a closed loop -- polystyrene cups and other packaging materials are usually recycled into fillers in other plastics, or other items that cannot themselves be recycled and are thrown away. THE MISSION OF BLUE EARTH SOLUTIONS IS THE REVERSAL OF THIS NORM WHICH WE HAVE SUCCESSFULLY IMPLEMENTED A CLOSED LOOP PROCESS TO MAKE OUR PLANET TRULY BLUE.

No, it's not a dance craze. Contago is a condition of supply and demand, essentially a fancy word to say that prices for items, typically commodities, are cheaper now than they would be at some point down the line.
Anything that¿s sold in the futures market can be in a case of contango. Futures are exactly that: a contract to buy an item or asset at a price in the future. This is the case with oil, with traders buying and selling contracts to acquire a barrel of oil in months down the line. When a market is in contango, spot prices, or the price of a commodity if you were to buy it right now, are lower than forward prices.
Why is that important? Well, it usually tells you the supply of a given commodity is plentiful (since, according to Economics 101, a large supply usually leads to cheap prices).
Incidentally, if you think contango is a mouthful, its opposite condition is known by the equally tongue-tying term backwardation.
