US 5294645 A Abstract MENTH-1-EN-9-OL kills bacteria, yeasts, and fungi by lysing the cell membrane of the organism.
Claims(4) 1. A method of killing bacteria and fungi comprising treating bacteria and fungi in their habitat with bactericidal and fungicidal concentrations of menth-1-en-9-ol.
2. The method of claim 1 wherein said bacteria are selected from a group consisting of Staphylococcus, Enterobacteriaceae, and Streptococcus.
3. The method of claim 1 wherein said fungi are selected from a group consisting of Aureoblasidium and Cladosporium.
4. A method of killing yeast consisting of treating yeast in their habitat with effective concentrations of menth-1-en-9-ol to kill said yeast.
Description The object of this invention is to demonstrate a method of using MENTH-1-EN-9-OL to kill bacteria, yeast, and fungi. (1) Field of the invention During the study of limonene as a hand cleaner, it was found that fully oxygenated limonene can be made bactericidal and fungicidal as was illustrated by the applicants in U.S. Pat. No. 5,153,229. A review of the literature revealed that oxygenated limonene contains several oxidation products including cis and trans-carveol, trans-p-menth-8-ene-1,2-diol, limonene 1,2-epoxide, limonene 8,9-epoxide, cis and trans-p-mentha-2,8-dien-1-ol, and perillyl alcohol, as was outlined by Blumann in Chemical Abstracts, Volume 63, 1965, on page 1819. Because limonene is not bactericidal and because the chemical structures of limonene and perillyl alcohol are identical except for a hydroxyl group replacing a hydrogen atom at carbon 7, the applicants were surprised to find that perillyl alcohol is bactericidal as was shown in U.S. Pat. No. 5,110,832. A review of the terpenes showed that all the monocyclic monoterpenes that are known to be antimicrobial have an oxygen molecule or hydroxyl group replacing a hydrogen atom at carbons 2, 3, 4, or 8. Prior to the discovery that perillyl alcohol is a bactericide, no monocyclic monoterpene with an oxygen or a hydroxyl group at carbon 7, 9 or 10 was recognized as an antimicrobial compound. After the discovery that perillyl alcohol is a bactericide, the applicants decided to study menth-1-en-9-ol (which has a hydroxyl group at carbon 9) for antimicrobial activity and were pleasantly surprised to find that menth-1-en-9-ol kills bacteria, yeast, and fungi in bactericidal and fungicidal concentrations. The chemical structures of limonene and menth-1-en-9-ol follow below. ##STR1## Because limonene is not bactericidal and because the chemical structures of limonene and menth-1-en-9-ol are identical except for a hydroxyl group replacing a hydrogen atom at carbon 9, menth-1-en-9-ol was not expected to be bactericidal. It should be noted in the structures of the monocyclic monoterpenes that follow, that none of the monocyclic monoterpenes that are known to be bactericidal, have an oxygen atom or a hydroxyl group at carbon 9 or 10 as can be appreciated in the structures of: perillyl alcohol, carveol, carvone, hydrocarveol, hydrocarvone, pulegone, isopulegol, menthol, menthone, terpinen-4-ol, and a-terpineol which follow. ##STR2## Because it was not expected, the applicants were surprised to find that menth-1-en-9-ol is bactericidal and fungicidal. Menth-1-en-9-ol is an oil with a fruity aroma. It is insoluble in water, is poorly soluble in propylene glycol, and is almost insoluble in glycerine. Menth-1-en-9-ol is soluble in alcohol and is miscible in oil. It is a naturally occurring oil, but heretofore, it has not been used as a bactericide and fungicide. As described by Khanna, Vijay and Ladwa, P. H. in the Indian Journal of Chemistry, Section B 1987, 26B (9), 816-822, menth-1-en-9-ol can be produced by the hydroboration - oxidation of carvone. (2) Description of the Prior Art Zuckerman studied the effect of auto-oxidized d-limonene on bacteria, but found it was weakly bacteriostatic, was unstable, and lost its bacteriostatic effect on keeping as was discussed in Nature 168: 517 (1961). He never studied menth-1-en-9-ol. Kurita investigated the fungicidal activity of several components of essential oils as was reported in Biol. Chem.,45(4), 945-952, 1981, but he never studied the bactericidal nor fungicidal activity of menth-1-en-9-ol against bacteria, yeast nor fungi. Murdock and Allen showed that the germicidal effect of sodium benzoate against yeast was enhanced by orange peel oil and d-limonene, as was outlined in Food Technology Vol 14, No 9, 1960, pages 441-5. They never studied the activity of menth-1-en-9-ol against bacteria, yeast nor fungi. Kellner et al demonstrated that ethereal oils and some of the compounds in the oils have anti-bacterial activity as was reported in Arneimittel-Forechung, 5, 224-9, 1955. He confirmed that limonene is not bactericidal. He never studied menth-1-en-9-ol for bactericidal nor fungicidal activity. Gauvreau showed a means of producing disinfecting compositions in U.S. Pat. No. 3,595,975 by combining cetyl pyridinium with terpenes to form antiseptics, but he never studied menth-1-en-9-ol alone nor in combination with cetyl pyridinium hydrochloride. A. Morel revealed the sterilizing action of carveol, dihydrocarveol, and their ozonization products in Comp. Rend. Soc. Biol. Volume 115, pages 536-8 (1934). He demonstrated the bactericidal effect of carveol and dihydrocarveol, but he never studied the bactericidal nor fungicidal activity of menth-1-en-9-ol. It should be pointed out that drugs which are bactericidal are usually not fungicidal, and drugs which are fungicidal are usually not bactericidal. In addition, drugs which are bactericidal frequently promote the growth of yeast. Table A, which follows, exemplifies the bactericidal and fungicidal activity of several commonly used antibacterial, antiyeast, and antifungal antibiotics.

Thus, an anti-fungal or anti-yeast antibiotic is not expected to kill bacteria and an anti-bacterial antibiotic is not expected to kill yeast nor fungi. Anti-fungal antibiotics do not necessarily kill yeast and anti-yeast antibiotics do not necessarily kill fungi. This invention relates to the use of menth-1-en-9-ol as a bactericide and fungicide. Menth-1-en-9-ol is an oil which is available commercially, but heretofore, it has not been recognized as a bactericide and fungicide. It is sightly viscous and when applied, readily adheres to glass, metal, wood, cloth, rope, book covers, paper, paint, cement, ceramics, plastic, plant surfaces, skin, mucous membranes, and teeth leaving an oily film. Because it is not soluble in water, its adherence to surfaces allows prolonged exposure and makes menth-1-en-9-ol an ideal bactericide and fungicide regardless of whether they infect plants, animals or humans. The exact method of killing bacteria, yeast, and fungi is unknown, but it is thought that menth-1-en-9-ol kills bacteria, yeast, and fungi by lysing the cell membrane of the organisms which is lethal to the organisms. In practice, any surface, on which it is desirable to kill or prevent the growth of bacteria, yeast and fungi, is treated with bactericidal and/or fungicidal concentrations of menth-1-en-9-ol by swabbing, wiping, painting, washing, brushing, spraying, or any other direct application technique. Alternatively, menth-1-en-9-ol can be incorporated in creams, ointments, tinctures, gels, suppositories, paints, sprays, aerosols, toothpastes, solutions, emulsions, soaps, scrubs, mouthwashes, or antiseptic, and applied anywhere it is desirable to kill or prevent the growth of bacteria, yeast, and fungi. The following examples are illustrative of the best mode of carrying out the invention. They are, obviously, not to be construed as limitative of the invention since various other embodiments can readily be evolved in view of the teachings provided herein. The BACTERICIDE AND FUNGICIDE contemplated by this invention is MENTH-1-EN-9-OL which was studied for bactericidal and fungicidal activity. The organisms tested included the bacteria: Staphylococcus aureus ATCC 25923, Streptococcus mutans which causes dental plaque, Escherichera coli 7, Salmonella 14 (para B), Pseudomonas aeriginosa 115, the yeast Candida albicans, a common cause of skin, mouth, and vaginal infections and the fungi Cladosporium cladosporides, and Aueroblasidium pullans. The minimal bactericidal and fungicidal concentration of menth-1-en-9-ol needed to kill these bacteria, yeast, and fungi is outlined in Table B below. The menth-1-en-9-ol used in the tests was obtained from Aldrich Chemical Company, Milwaukee, Wis., Catalogue Number 18,374-1 and Lot Numbers 13835-30-8 (01130DT AW) and 18479-69-0 (01130DT EZ) TABLE B______________________________________BACTERICIDAL AND FUNGICIDAL ACTIVITY OFMENTH-1-EN-9-OL MINIMAL BACTERICIDAL CONCENTRATIONORGANISM 10 Min 60 Min 24 Hrs______________________________________A.

An inoculum of 106 colony-forming units (CFU)/ml was used. Each test was incubated at the proper temperature for each organism and subcultured (0.01 ml) at 10 minutes, 60 minutes, and 24 hours onto agar media free of menth-1-en-9-ol. Results were expressed as the bactericidal concentration, i.e. the lowest concentration of menth-1-en-9-ol (ml. menth-1-en-9-ol/total ml of test) killing at least 99.99% of the bacterial inoculum.

Friday the S&P 500 sold off and broke below the psychologically significant 2000 level. Other than being a round number that's about all the significance I would give to 2000. If I were still a full time trader the number I would be more concerned with is 1990. The first chart this weekend is a daily closing chart for the S&P 500. I did write a book on technical analysis (like 9 years ago) but do not claim to be a master technician. However it sure appears to me that support for the first month of 2015 has been around 1990. To be specific the intraday low this year is 1988.12 and the closing low is 1992.67.

We're planning a trip to the park (Tennessee side, not NC) with our 2 yr. old daughter. I don't even know where to begin in terms of deciding where to go! We'll be in the area for a day or two, so we'll need to pick just a few places to visit within the park.
We're looking for ideas that wouldn't involve miles of hiking since we will have a toddler with us. Scenic spots, easy trails, etc.
Any suggestions?
Thank you!

And wanted to add: we'll be going sometime in the spring, definitely weekdays to avoid crowds. -

Cades Cove is an interesting place...a flat area surrounded by mountains. There is a loop you can drive and there are a few stops...old cabins and such. A good picnicing place.

I second Cades Cove. The loop is about eleven miles with several good stopping points along the way - old churches and cabins, barns, I believe one gift shop. If you're into biking, there are certain hours (early in the morning) where the loop is closed to cars for bikers.
Otherwise, there are lots of scenic spots and picnic areas you can drive to. My parents used to take us when we were pretty little. I can ask them where their favorite spots were, but once you're in the mountains there's no shortage. We used to go wading in the river, although depending on when in spring you go it might be too cold still. -

Depending on your choice of transport, you can go anywhere you would normally go. We used a backpack type carrier w/both kids that worked really well. Check out www.smokymountains.org, www.gsmnp.com & www.nsp.gov/grsm.

Laurel Falls is an easy hike with a beautiful waterfall. I've seen others do it with a child in an umbrella stroller. It's a paved trail, so I would think it's pretty feasible - and pretty close to the Gatlinburg side of the national park.

Thank you for the great suggestions!
Paved trails and/or trails where we could use an umbrella stroller are ideal. My daugher has never been a fan of the carrier things. She'll probably do a combination of walking and riding.
Will there be a lot of traffic on the Cades Cove loop? The park website said there could be, depending on day/time/season. We'll probably be there mid-week.

You could definitely encounter some traffic in Cades Cove. Just don't go there in a hurry and it'll still be enjoyable. Always fill up with gas before you go so you're not worried about that while you're inching along. Take some drinks and snacks - or we like to take a picnic and a blanket and get out along the way and escape the crowd. I've seen people pull over on the side of the road, walk into the middle of a pasture and have a picnic. A deer walked right by them while they were eating. Early morning is better for viewing animals but people know that and sometimes it's more crowded. Depending on when you go in the spring, the bears might not be active yet. Also, Wednesday and Saturday mornings (I think those are the days) the park is closed to cars for the early morning hours and only allows walkers and bicycles. On the way back from Cades Cove, there are signs advertising Tuckaleechee Caverns. This is an underground wonderland - actually a series of caves with streams and all kinds of rock formations. This was very interesting to us and our kids - 12 and 9 - but I'm not sure what your toddler would think of it. There are some steps that you have to climb so I don't know that you could take a stroller....maybe that's a bad idea with a baby but it is really beautiful.
We've been all over the US and have recently visited Hawaii, but the Smoky Mountains are still our favorite. Enjoy!
Some people think both Pigeon Forge and Gatlinburg are cheesy tourist traps but we think it has some of the most beautiful scenery in this part of the country. -

This website might be helpful:
Also, if you drive through the park to the NC border, you can drive up to Clingmon's Dome, the highest point in Tennessee.
Definitely do Cades Cove. -

Thank you, JCN and Bob! Lots of helpful info here.
JCN, I'm glad you mentioned Pigeon Forge and Gatlinburg. We're thinking of staying in one of these towns. I've heard they are touristy, but I thought there might be something there my daughter will enjoy.
Thanks again, everyone! -
Report Abuse
Pigeon Forge is full of everything you can imagine for kids....from arcades to the Dixie Stampede and Dollywood. If you go early in the Spring, you won't get the full benefit of Dollywood because the water rides won't be open. I guess I just assumed that's where you were going when you mentioned the Smoky Mountains. Also, there is a petting zoo (Deer Park, I think it's called) on the outskirts of town towards I-40. It's not much to look at but we always had to go when my kids were younger for pony rides, etc.
Please don't hesitate to ask concerning places to stay, eat, etc. We always go the weekend before Christmas with several friends and their families. It transforms into a winter wonderland when snow is covering the mountains.
To me, it's not touristy. Of course they have gift shops on every turn and arcades, but there's always plenty to do to entertain the kids and plenty of food and shopping to pacify the adults. Also, they have an abundance of shows: gospel music, country, oldies, even the Black Bear Jamboree which the kids love. -

Traffic in Cades Cove is somewhat hit or miss, in my experience. Going on a weekday will help. Otherwise, jcn's advice is good: fill up with gas, take a picnic, and plan to make a leisurely time out of it.
The towns of Pigeon Forge and Gatlinburg most definitely cater to tourists, but that's not always a horrible thing. With your daughter being so young, I'd probably stay in Gatlinburg if you choose to stay in one of those two. Pigeon Forge is much more car-oriented. The activities in PF are more along the lines of outlet shopping (lots), laser tag, mini golf, etc., plus there's Dollywood. My guess is that your daughter is too young to enjoy most of that, although I might be wrong. Personally, I would only stay there on a pure shopping trip or if I were into the shows.
In Gatlinburg, you can park the car, walk the Parkway and stop in at shops whenever you like. There are at least a couple of candy shops where you can watch taffy being made (there's one in the front of the Village shopping area). She might or might not enjoy the aquarium - I sure enjoyed it though. It's geared toward kids, and you can pet sting rays and crabs and that kind of thing, in addition to the shark tunnel and other exhibits.
If you'd rather stay somewhere calmer, there are tons of cabins both around Gatlinburg and around Townsend ("the quiet side of the Smokies"). -

This is all so helpful! My daughter loves animals, so the petting zoo and the aquarium are both promising.

Gatlinburg has a trolley.

G & P are both very touristy, so be ready for some traffic. We live nearby and love going there. -

siena, This is one of our favorite places to visit (We have been 4 times now). We always get a cabin (there are hundreds of them). Our daughter, 9yo, loves it there. Our favorite things are:
Picnic at Chimney tops picnic area in GSMNP (Easy to drive to, wonderful scenery).
Drive up to Newfound gap if weather is nice.
Dixie Stampede
Black Bear Jamboree
Aquarium (very well done)
The Laurel falls trail is a nice hike but it is about a 3 mile R/T. Our daughter was about 5 when we did it and it a bit much for her.
Here is a great map for the park.
Definitely stop at Sugarlands visitor center before going into the park.
Will answer any specific ?? you may have. Enjoy your visit.

Hi there-
I know this is an old post, but we are traveling to the Smoky Mountains with our 2 year old and are not sure where to stay. I'm wondering if you liked where you ended up staying or have a recommendation for not-to-be-missed toddler fun. We're torn between a quiet cabin in the woods or a hotel with an indoor swimming pool.... -

Prologis lands 1M square foot lease with Amazon
- Blanca Torres
- Reporter- San Francisco Business Times
- Email | Twitter | Google+ | LinkedIn
Prologis Inc. recently signed a 1-million-square-foot build-to-suit lease with Amazon.com for a new distribution center in Tracy.
Prologis will build the new facility on 90 acres of land at Prologis Park Tracy Phase II in Tracy, which will total 2.2 million square feet with the Amazon (NASDAQ: AMZN) expansion.
"We place tremendous value on our global customer relationships, and are pleased to provide Amazon with strategic distribution space in eight markets across the globe," said Scott Lamson, president, Northwest Region, Prologis Americas. "The growth of e-commerce is driving strong demand for large facilities, not only from our online retail customers, but with traditional brick and mortars as well."
Amazon announced last fall that it planned to build distribution centers in Tracy and Patterson. The online retailer has been setting up distribution centers in California as a way to reach customers faster and offer more services such as same-day delivery.
Also, in the past, Amazon could avoid charging sales tax by shipping to California from out of state, but that is no longer the case.

Metamark Genetics names Straley as CEO
- Michelle Lang
Molecular diagnostics startup Metamark Genetics Inc. has named Mark Straley as the company's new president, CEO and member of the board of directors. Interim CEO Kenneth Weg, a co-founder of the company, will continue in his role as chairman of the board.
Straley's experience in diagnostics and diabetes stems from a previous role as worldwide president of Johnson & Johnson's Diagnostics division, where he began working in 2005 as vice president of marketing. He gained prior management, sales and marketing experience at Bayer Healthcare and Abbott Laboratories. Straley earned a bachelor's degree from Miami University of Ohio.
The Cambridge-based startup has made a number of personnel announcements in recent months, including its September appointment of Peter Blume-Jensen as chief scientific officer. The company also named three new board members that month in Dr. Gregory Critchfield, Dr. Mansoor Raza Mirza and Slava Smolokowski.
Founded in 2007, Metamark Genetics develops diagnostic tests that enable personalized treatment plans to be created in developing cancer.
The company raised a $22 million Series B round of financing in July.

As the country continues to change and adapt to include LGBT individuals into state and federal law on issues like marriage and other such privileges, more and more people on the opposing side are finding that their island is getting smaller and smaller.
It appears that at least two same-sex couples have been married in Barrow, Alaska, according to Kristine Hilderbrand, who said state Magistrate Mary Treiber waived the three-day waiting period required after issuing of marriage licenses.
According to a recent UNAIDS survey, Trinidad and Tobago's population is having a radical shift in attitudes towards LGBT Rights. It is not the only survey of its kind that reflects this.
The scary signs are everywhere. (If you know where to look...) ...
You know what might help in this crisis-to-end-all-crises? Having a Surgeon General in office. President Obama nominated someone for the job last November, but his confirmation has been blocked ever since.
Utah State Rep. Kraig Powell (R-Heber City) is proposing innovative legislation in his state: "I have come up with a word we probably can use and see if the courts will accept. ... [T]he same-sex legal relationship between partners is called pairage. The legal relationship between opposite sex partners is called marriage." Mr. Powell is really onto something here.
"You have to stand your ground and be who you are and find acceptance -- if not in others, than in yourself. That's the road to happiness...and as Oscar Wilde said, and is quoted by [the character] Lola: 'Be Yourself: everyone else is already taken.'"

If Amazon's book-selling success scares some writers imagine what lovers of Netflix and HBO will do now that Amazon's binge series, Jill Soloway's Transparent , has turned out to be a work of genius?
Today the Supreme Court announced it would not hear a marriage equality case in the near future, turning down several appeals of lower court rulings that voided bans on same-sex marriage. No doubt this is a disappointment to many who have been waiting for the Court to declare marriage equality a constitutionally protected right. Yet the decision is still a major victory for LGBT rights. Same-sex marriage is absolutely necessary for our country to fulfill its constitutional promises of equal protection and due process of law. Yet there were good reasons for the Court to hold off on deciding the marriage question this term.
Some would prioritize such broader social reforms over marriage equality, or even argue that winning marriage will harm such efforts by reinforcing the institution's undeserved special status.
It is LGBTQ History Month, which got me thinking about my own history. When I came out to my mother her struggle was largely based on worrying what the neighbors would think.
This year, the UN Human Rights Office set up a photo booth near the entrance to the iconic General Assembly Hall. Visitors were invited to stop by and have their photo taken while holding up a sign affirming their support for the rights of lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender people around the world.
Logically, the answer is simple: Don't get involved with someone who isn't willing to be seen with you in public. And in a perfect world, I think that's what I would have done before I allowed myself to become the "secret boyfriend." But as anyone who has ever been in love will tell you, sometimes logic goes out the window.
Religion aside, I firmly believe that those who argue that homosexuality is a choice do so in order to justify senseless beatings of gays and lesbians, and continued discrimination and mistreatment against them. I also believe without a doubt that it is a choice to be a nasty human being.

ProsSlight possibility that you may end up getting a job at another company. The best outcome would be a short-term contract so that you can quickly transition away from UBS and into the company you are contracted to.
ConsPoor communication with all. Misrepresentation of job details. Poor prepping of applicants. Internal staff appears to have high turnover. No interest in any career planning just mostly sending your resume out. I can do that myself without ending up seriously underpaid in order to cover their cut.
Advice to ManagementAdvicePretend you are running a real company. Consider the time and effort that and stress involved in changing jobs that most people face and not just how much you can make off them.

Investment Column: Debenhams stock is too cheap to ignore
Wellstream Holdings; James Fisher and Sons
Our view: Buy
Share price: 69.95p (-1.05p)
Debenhams brought the Principles brand back from the dead last year – after it had collapsed under a rival's watch – and yesterday proved there is plenty of life left in the old brand yet.
As part of a resilient overall performance, the 158 department store chain touted a strong launch of its Principles fashion range designed by Ben de Lisi earlier this month, which contributed to "double digit" growth at its Designers at Debenhams range over the half year to 27 February.
Granted, Debenhams' wider underlying sales growth of 0.3 per cent over the half year was subdued, but the figure would have been about 1.5 per cent higher without the massive shift to its own-bought products in the fourth quarter of last year. The allocation of more floor space to its own-bought ranges, such as Designers at Debenhams and Mantaray, and tight control of its stock, helped to boost the total sales and gross margin over the half year.
As a result, it boasted that its underlying earnings and pre-tax profit for the half year are expected to be above last year. Citing the closely watched Kantar Worldpanel data, Debenhams also said it had increased its market share in menswear, childrenswear and homewares over the 24 weeks to 31 January 2010.
Of course, some storm clouds are gathering on the horizon for the high street with growing public sector unemployment, post-election tax rises and rising petrol prices all expected to rise. As such many retailers have forecast a tough second half of the year that could last well into 2011.
Despite this, Debenhams sees potential to grow beyond 200 stores on home soil, and its shares – which have fallen from a 12-month high of nearly £1 – now look good value, trading on a 2010 price to earnings ratio of 9.4 times, which represents a substantial discount to the sector average of between 13 and 14 times.
We are not tipping Debenhams to set the world alight, but do think that, like the reborn Principles brand, it has legs. Buy.
Wellstream Holdings
Our view: Hold
Share price: 525p (-10p)
The last time we visited Wellstream, our call was coloured by the state of the order backlog.
The oil pipeline company's focus on costs, market chatter regarding the potential of a bid and an undemanding valuation discounted a sell stance, but uncertainty about the timing of awards outside Brazil, where Wellstream has an agreement with Petrobras, meant that we held back from wading in.
Yesterday, the analysts at Evolution, weighing on the back of the group's results for last year, echoed our call, saying that "outlook for new orders outside Brazil is the key driver". The backlog currently stands at around £168m, and as Evolution points out, that looks "light" compared to full-year revenue forecasts.
For its part, the company said that though there was "evidence of an improvement in market activity" outside Brazil, "the board's near term outlook remains unchanged". This caution is sensible, and reinforces our confidence in the group.
So, once again, the question is not really whether Wellstream is a good company, or whether it is run properly. We think it does well on both counts. It's about the timing of orders. We're content to hold until we see some demand flowing in.
James Fisher and Sons
Our view: Buy
Share price: 403p (-17p)
Sometimes investors are very difficult to please. James Fisher and Sons, the marine services group, yesterday reported a 5 per cent rise in 2009 profits, said that trading was in line with expectations and even raised the dividend by 2 per cent to a total of 13.6p.
And what happens? The shares fall by 4 per cent, continuing a trend which has seen the company lose more than 10 per cent of its value in the last six months, just as equity markets were said to be improving.
The reason for the dip is the disappointing performance from the group's marine oil division, which trailed in with a loss of £1.6m, against a profit of £5.4m in 2008. This meant that the group missed a number of analysts' targets, and hence the share price drop.
We call on investors to grow a backbone. The group as a whole is performing well, and trading on a 2010 price-earnings ratio, the shares are well below historic levels. The dividend yield of more than 3.5 per cent is also a draw.
Ostensibly, James Fisher is a good bet. Fill your boots now while the stock is cheap. Buy.

Good on you! You can also buy beautiful bridal fabrics that are already beaded/ sequined if that fits into your style. If sewing them on by hand yourself, I use clear thread (similar to fishing line but way finer) that way you can secure them without seeing your stitches.
Jan 3, 2013, 10.00 AMby sewingfan1
I'd probably use an embroidery hoop :-) If there's a way of using removable pencil/ink to draw the pattern lines you wantstraight onto the fabric (or better still putting a drawing underneath with the pattern you want to follow if the fabric is see thru) I bet that would make things easier. I'm trying to decide whether to make my own wedding dress too, but I think I'll be going for the ready embroidered/beaded option myself if I choose that sort of dress as I know I wouldn't have the patience to sew them all on myself (or to keep putting it away to keep it hidden during the process). The clear thread is a good idea and prob make sure you 'close' each stitch somehow so if it snapped you wouldn't see the whole row of beads falling off. Here's a grorgeous beaded project by one of the members of this site, there may be some advice on there too http://www.burdastyle.com/projects/beaded-leaf-gown Have fun!!

Jayakrishnan Aluva! ! !
Extra special diamond Soul
Plays a strong and silent role
Joys and pains of life conceives
Filth and fairness both perceives
His gem being gets always thrilled
At lovely scenes beauty-filled
His pictures capture sunset shades
Blows of breeze in valley-glades
Starry-gloss and moonlit shine
On cedars, willows, Oaks and pines
Fragrant, fruity, citron trees,
Buds, blossoms, birds and bees
Burning edge of turquoise sky
Singing floating birds on high
You glut your sorrows on his page
Set free of dolor, passions, rage
Good or bad he nothing hides
Shows with care both the sides
Havoc caused by summer-rains
Watered streets and blocked drains
Pics of thirst, hunger, wants
Terror scene that really haunts
All life stirring he observes
Feels the pain on noble nerves

Paul Brookes (5/22/2013 1:24:00 AM) All poets have there feelings close to the surface and feel too much. Great poem. Highly observational. You need to take the s's off conceives/perceives in the second stanza and 'His gem being gets always thrilled' should read His gem being got always thrilled in the third. I really enjoyed reading this poem 10/10 Thanks for sharing (Report) Reply
