These compositions comprise a conditioned medium obtained from a cell culture of human mononuclear cells or a conditioned or extracted medium obtained from a cell culture of mammalian normal or transformed cells or cancer cells.
1. A method of stimulating hair growth in a subject comprising treating said subject with an effective amount of a composition comprising a conditioned medium obtained from a cell culture of human mononuclear cells wherein said medium contains hair-growth stimulating activity or factors.
2. The method of claim 1, wherein the treatment of said subject is a topical or intracutaneous treatment.
3. The method of claim 1, wherein cells are plated in tissue culture dishes and incubated and supernatant from the cell culture comprising the conditioned medium is collected and filtered.
The present invention relates to factors which are capable of stimulating hair growth in a subject.
Physiology of Hair Growth. From early fetal development, and through the entire life of animals including humans, hair follicles (HFs) undergo many cycles of degeneration and regrowth. In human hair growth, during the neonatal period and throughout adolescence, HF on scalp progressively thicken because the follicles gradually enlarge with each new cycle (DeVillez R L: In: Current Concept, A Scope Publication, by the Upjohn Co., Kalamazoo, Mich., 1986; pp. 4-27; Takashima I, Kawagihi I: In: Toda K, et al (eds): Biology and Disease of Hair. Baltimore, Univ. Park Press, 1976; pp. 457-471).
The HP is composed of many cell types, such as epidermal and mesenchymal cells. The mesenchymal cells are known to play a role as "inductive organizers" of both fetal and postnatal follicles (Chase H B. Physiol Rev. 1954; 34:113-126).
The follicular germ cells, which are the bulbar matrix cells, are responsible for the great mitotic proliferation in the HF. During development, the cells in the matrix proliferate with an upward migration and differentiation into hair matrix, inner sheath and outer sheath cells. The hair matrix group, located in the central axis of the HF, further differentiates into the cells forming the medulla, hair cortex, and hair cuticle. These cells show a continuous upward migration with keratinization of the cortical and cuticle cells which are essential for the manufacturing process of hair in a growing follicle (Chase H B. Physiol Rev. 1954; 34:113-126; Hashimoto K. Br J Dermatol 1970; 83:167-176).
Hair cycles are divided into three stages: 1) Anagen, which is the active growing phase of the HF cycle, 2) Catagen, a regressive stage, 3) Telogen, resting stage. (DeVillez R L: In: Current Concept, a Scope Publication by the Upjohn Co., Kalamazoo, Mich., 1986; pp. 4-27.; Takashima I, Kawagishi I: In: Toda K, et al (eds): Biology and Desease of Hair. Baltimore, Univ. Park Press, 1976; pp. 457-471; Chase H B. Physiol Rev. 1954; 34:113-126; Kligman A M. J Invest Dermatol 1959; 33:307-316.) The relative duration of these stages varies with the individuals' age, hormonal factors, nutritional and health status, as well as genetics. Growth factors responsible for the stimulation of hair growth have not yet been elucidated.
Of the 100,000 to 150,000 scalp hairs on a human adult, approximately 90% are in anagen, with the remaining 10% in the telogen phase. Approximately 50 to 100 clubbed hairs are shed each day. The growth rates of human hairs vary slightly depending on the body region, with 0.44 mm/day at the vertex of the scalp then 0.27 mm/day for beard or body hair. (Moretti G, Rampini E, Rebora A: Int J Dermatol 15:277-285, 1976; Orentreich N, Durr N P: Clin Plast Surg 9:197-205, 1982; Katz M, Wheeler K E, Radowsky M. et al. Med biol Eng Comput 17:333-336, 1979.
In animal species such as rats and mice, all hairs are apparently in the same state of activity, where all cyclic changes are synchronized (DeVillez R L: In: Current Concept, A Scope Publication, by the Upjohn Co., Kalamazoo, Mich., 1986; pp. 4-27; Takashima I, Kawagihi I: In: Toda K, et al (eds): Biology and Disease of Hair. Baltimore, Univ. Park Press, 1976; pp. 457-471). The first cycle of hair growth in rats starts early after birth and continues through to approximately the 21st day of life. The second cycle starts approximately after day 35.
The young (8-12days) rat has been previously utilized as a model for chemotherapy-induced alopecia and a number of novel observations have been made (Hussein, A. M., Jimenez, J. J., McCall, C. A., and Yunis, A. A.: Science 249:1564, 1990; Jimenez, J. J., Wong, G. H. W., Yunis. A. A.: FASEB J. 5:2456, 1991; and Jimenez, J. J., Huang, H. S., and Yunis, A. A. Cancer Invest. 10(4):269, 1992; Jimenez, J. J. and Yunis, A. A.: Cancer Res. 52:413, 1992; Jimenez, J. J., Sawaya, M. E. and Yunis, A. A.: FASEB J. 6:911, 1992; Jimenez, J. J. and Yunis A. A.: Cancer Res. 52:5123, 1992; and Jimenez, J. J., Alvarez, E., Bustamante, C. D., and Yunis, A. A. Am. J. of the Med. Sci 310(2):43, 1995. Rats treated with chemotherapy during the first cycle of hair growth become totally alopecic within 10 days. These rats remain with total alopecia until the second cycle of hair growth. Thus it takes 20 to 30 days for rats to recover from the alopecia.
More recently, applicants have used a commercial hair remover, Neet�, on rats during their first cycle of hair growth. This approach makes the rats immediately alopecic, and hair does not regrow until the second cycle. Applicants believe that this long latent period could be used effectively to test various substances for their potential ability to stimulate hair growth and thus shorten the time to recovery.
It is an object of the present invention to determine the possible existence of hair growth-stimulating activity or of hair growth-stimulating factors.
It has been found that conditioned or extracted medium from mammalian normal, transformed or cancer cells, and preferably from conditioned or extracted medium from human mononuclear cells obtained from buffy coats and conditioned medium from the human pancreatic carcinoma cell line MIA PaCa (Yunis, A. A., Arimura, G. K., and Russin, D. J., Int. J. of Cancer, 19:128, 1977) possess hair growth-stimulating activity. This activity was determined by use of a screening process in which various compounds and/or cytokines were tested.
The file of this patent contains at least one drawing executed in color. Copies of this Patent with color drawing(s) will be provided by the patent and Trademark Office upon request and payment of the necessary fee.
FIG. 1 is a photograph of two groups of rats which were all treated with CTX. The top group of rats were treated with a hair growth stimulating composition according to the present invention and the bottom group were treated with control medium.
FIG. 2a is a photograph of a group of rats who were treated with CTX and then with a hair growth stimulating composition according to the present invention.
FIG. 2b shows a second group of rats treated with CTX and then with control medium.
FIG. 3 shows a group of rats treated with CTX. The right hand and left hand groups were treated with compositions according to the invention while the center group were treated with control medium.
The present invention relates, in general, to compositions for stimulating hair growth and methods for stimulating hair growth. Hair growth stimulation may be desirable, for example, in alopecia conditions induced by chemotherapeutic treatment or in post hair graft treatment. Additionally, hair growth stimulation may be a goal in simply enhancing normal hair growth in a subject or in alleviating the effects of thinning hair.
It should be noted that by stimulation of hair growth as used herein applicants intend to encompass the stimulation of the growth of existing hair or the stimulation of hair growth from the hair follicle.
Hair growth stimulation is a commonly sought goal in various situations. Alopecia is a common and distressing side effect of various chemotherapeutic agent. There is an urgent need in such situations to enhance the growth of hair to restore the original state of a subject suffering from such alopecia. Similarly, hair growth stimulation is a requirement after hair graft procedures so that the grafted hairs may quickly grow and provide a fuller hair condition than may have been present prior to the hair graft procedure. Some normal subjects may also desire to have a fuller hair condition and, hence, a hair growth stimulating composition would also be desirable for such subjects.
Compositions suitable for use in the present invention comprise formulations containing the active materials in accordance with the present invention either by themselves or in association with a pharmaceutically acceptable vehicle therefore and optionally other therapeutic ingredient(s). The vehicle (Hashioto K. Br J. Dermatol 1970; 83:167-176) must be "acceptable" in the sense of being compatible with the other ingredients of the preparation and not deleterious to the recipient thereof.
The instant active materials are normally administered in topical form such as a liniment, a lotion, a cream or a gel. Additionally, the instant active materials may be administered intracutaneously (intradermally). Further therapeutic ingredients which might be present include, for example, vitamin D3 and its analogs, derivatives or active metabolites or a potassium channel opener such as minoxidil, cromokalin or pinacidil. The concentration of the active ingredients will generally be between about 1 and 100 μg/g. The instant formulations can be applied from once to several times daily for prolonged periods of time if such is required.
Preparations suitable for topical administration include liquid or semi-liquid preparations such as liniments, lotions, applicants, oil-in-water or water-in-oil emulsions as creams, ointments, pastes or gels, or solutions or suspensions. Intracutaneous preparations contain the present active material and the known generally accepted intracutaneous excipients, carriers and additives.
In addition to the aforementioned ingredients, the preparations of this invention may include one or more additional ingredients such as diluents, buffers, flavoring agents, binders, surface active agents, thickeners, lubricants, preservatives, e.g. methyl hydroxybenzoate (including anti-oxidants), emulsifying agents and the like.
The preparations may as mentioned above, contain further therapeutically active compounds usually applied in the above mentioned treatment.
In the topical treatment, ointments, creams, gels, or lotions containing from 1-100 μg/g of the instant active principles are administered.
The present invention further concerns a method for treating subjects suffering from or in risk of getting alopecia, said method consisting of administering topically to a subject in need of treatment to stimulate hair growth an effective amount of instant active materials, alone or in combination with one or more other therapeutically active compounds usually applied in such treatment. The treatment with the present compounds concomitantly with further therapeutically active compounds may be simultaneous or with intervals.
In the instant invention, the existence of a heretofore unknown hair growth-stimulating activity or factors have been found. The hair growth-stimulating activity or factors are produced by mammalian normal or transformed cells including, for example normal or transformed human cells as well as some tumor cells or cell lines. The hair growth-stimulating compositions comprise condition media obtained from cultures such cells and preferably of human mononuclear cells or a human pancreatic cancer cells.
A screening process was conducted in which a number of compositions and/or cytokines were tested. For the purpose of testing two models were used:
1. Rats which have been rendered alopecic by chemotherapy (Cytoxan).
2. Rats rendered alopecic by depilation using the hair remover Neet�.
From the screening process, it was unexpectedly discovered that conditioned medium from human mononuclear cells (obtained from buffy coats) and conditioned medium from the human pancreatic carcinoma cell line MIA PaCa (Yunis, A. A., Arimura, G. K., and Russin, D. J., Int. J. of Cancer, 19:128, 1977) contained hair growth-stimulating activity (HGSA).
In rats rendered alopecic with either Cytoxan (CTX) or Neet�, treatment with Human Mononuclear Cell Conditioned Medium, HKCC, resulted in more rapid recovery of hair regrowth than controls, i.e. HKCC contains hair growth-stimulating activity or factor. Thus, it can be concluded that human mononuclear cells produce hair growth-stimulating activity or factor.
In rats rendered alopecic with Neet� (Cytoxan model not used), treatment with Human Pancreatic Cancer Cell Conditioned Medium, MPCM, also resulted in more rapid regrowth of hair than in controls. Thus, certain cancer cells can also produce hair growth-stimulating activity or factor.
Although the foregoing invention has been described in some detail by way of illustration and example for purposes of clarity of understanding, it will be obvious to those skilled in the art that certain changes and modifications may be practiced without departing from the spirit and scope thereof as described in the specification and as defined in the appended claims.
Sprague Dawley rats were used. Rats were fed and housed according to NIH guidelines. Cyclophosphamide or Cytoxan (CTX) was from Adria Laboratories (Columbus, Ohio). CTX (35 mg/kg) was given for one day only on day 11.
Buffy coats were purchased from the American Red Cross (Miami, Fla.). The buffy coats were diluted 1:4 with Dulbecco's Modified Eagle's Media, DMEM, (GIBCO) with 10% fetal calf serum (Media Facility Cancer Center, Miami, Fla.). The cell suspension was placed on a gradient (Histopaque-1077, Sigma Diagnostics) and centrifuged for 40 minutes at 1400 rpm. The interface was collected, diluted 1:5 with 10% fetal calf serum (FCS) and centrifuged for 10 minutes at 800 rpm. This procedure was repeated to wash the mononuclear cells.
The cells were resuspended in DMEN with 1% FCS, counted and assessed for morphology. This procedure yielded on an average 35% monocytes and 65% lymphocytes. The cells were then plated at 3�106 /ml in DMEN with 1% FCS in tissue culture dishes (Sarsteadt) and incubated for 24 hr in a humidified incubator at 37� with 5% CO2. At the end of the incubation period, the supernatant was collected and centrifuged at 1000 rpm at 5� for 10 minutes.
The conditioned medium, containing the hair growth stimulating activity (human mononuclear cell conditioned medium or HMCCN), was collected and filtered with 0.2μ filter. Samples were aliquoted and those not used immediately were stored at -70�.
MIA PaCa cells were grown to confluence in DMEM with 10% FCS and 2.5% horse serum (HS). Plates were washed �2 and fresh media was added. The cells were then incubated for 24 hr. in a humidified incubator at 37� with 5% CO2. At the end of the incubation period, the supernatant was collected and centrifuged at 1000 rpm at 5� for 10 minutes. The conditioned media (MIA PaCa conditioned medium or MPCM), containing the hair growth stimulating activity, was collected and filtered with 0.2μ filter. Samples were aliquoted and those not used immediately were stored at -70�.
Control medium was prepared similarly but without cells. Serum Free MPCM (S.F. MPCM) was prepared as follows: MIA PaCa cells were grown to confluence in DMEM with 10% FCS and 2.5% H.S. Plates were washed �2 with S.F. media and fresh S.F. media was added. After 48 hr. of incubation, the supernatant was collected, centrifuged at 1000 rpm at 5� C. for 10 minutes, filtered with 0.2μ filter and used for ultrafiltration.
This was accomplished by ultrafiltration at 5� C. The MPCM was ultrafiltered in 400 ml batches through a filter with molecular weight (MW) cut off of 10 Kd at an operating pressure of 25 p.s.i. The 2-fold concentrated MPCM was collected and the effluent discarded. The S.F. MPCM was similarly concentrated 10 fold. For control rats, serum free DMEM was similarly concentrated 10 fold. Samples were aliquoted and frozen at -70� until used.
Six 11-day old rats were given CTX 35 mg/kg i.p. Ten days later, when the rats were totally alopecic, they were randomized in two groups of 3 rats each. Group #1 received 0.3 ml of HMCCM s.c. on the head area daily for 10 days. Group #2 received 0.3 ml of control media s.c. on the head area daily for 10 days and served as control. Rats in group #1 demonstrated increased hair growth five days earlier than rats in group #2. Picture was taken on day 35. (FIG. 1).
Nineteen 11-day old rats were given CTX 35 mg/kg i.p. Ten days later, when the rats were totally alopecic, they were randomized in two groups of 9 and 10 rats respectively. Group #1 (9 rats) received 0.3 ml of HMCCM s.c. on the back area daily for 10 days. Group #2 (10 rats) received 0.3 ml of control media s.c. on the back area daily for 10 days and served as control. Rats in group #1 demonstrated increased hair growth five to six days earlier than rats in group #2 (Picture was taken on day 35). (FIGS. 2a and 2b).
Using Neet�, all hair was removed from nine 26-day old rats. Three groups of 3 rats were randomly selected. Group #1 received 0.5 ml of HMCCM s.c. on the back area daily for 6 days. Group #2 received 0.5 ml of MPCM similarly. Group #3 received control media. Six days after the first injection, three independent observers, not involved in the experiments, were asked to select the rats with increased hair growth.

Using Neet�, all hair was removed from nine 23-day old rats. Three groups of 3 rats were randomly selected. Group #1 received 0.5 ml of 10� S.F. MPCM on the back area daily for 7 days. Group #2 received 0.5 ml of 2� MPCM (containing serum). Group #3 received 10� control S.F. media and served as control. Seven days after the first injection pictures were taken (FIG. 3). The pictures clearly demonstrate that rats which received 10� S.F. MPCM or 2� MPCM had increased hair regrowth.

Wow. Check out the ratings by people who have already purchased! I'd be scared based on that alone!
Yeah I saw that. Unfortunately after I bought it. I did get the year extended warranty just in case I do burn it up. Just wanted some informed advice. I don't know what kind of stress running a barley crusher puts on a drill.
If it's not too late, return it and get this drill while it's on sale for $12 off: http://www.harborfreight.com/power-t...ill-47991.html
Hmm, not too sure. I ended up buying a heavy duty low speed drill. Since its from Harbor Freight, I'm not too sure how "heavy duty" it is, but I haven't burnt it up yet. The basic idea is that you want a drill with enough torque at the low speeds to crush grain.
The part I don't like is on the LOWES site it shows that it does NOT have a UL rating. I didn't think anything electric could be sold with out that rating. Anyway, I would not go near it. If I got one as a gift I would RUN not walk to my nearest LOWES and get it exchanged.
Got tired of waiting for our savior to save the economy, so I jumped into all grain, What the hell!!!
And this is why I love this site. There's always someone that knows more than you about something. I don't even know what that last post meant, but I did find a harbor freight down the road from my office and I will be stopping there soon. It's not in the best part of town, but I'll just put on my bullet proof vest and soldier on. All in the pursuit of making better beer! Or maybe just so I don't have to hand crack 20# of grain again. Thanks everybody.
I work in healthcare. About the farthest you can get from IT, engineering or mechanics which most homebrewers are (at least in my experience). I don't own a home or have any clue when it comes to electronics in the least bit. At least how they work. Case in point why I won't be building that electric HERMS rig anytime soon. Thanks for the help just the same.

U dont just rock into mordor.....DO YOU????? Or u throw rocks at the black gates. *throws rocks at the black ates for a few hours, gets turned into a pincushion, and leaves* not gunna work. Toss gimli? But dont tell the elf? I dont think so. The only efficient way to get the ring into mount doom is to catapult it. It has been proven. Wrong. Thts why im saying this from a dungeon. It wuz boromir's idea. CURSE U. Also.....are there orc females? Or do orcs just pop out of breeding sacks? Psh. I doubt it. Here is a short summary for....er....all ages to understand. Here it is: after recieving a ring, frodo must throw it in a big volcano to blow it up. But things get complicated..and scary.....like wizard with long finger nails scary. *shudders* after destroying the ring, frodo goes to valinor and ruins the ppls lives there. THE END. See wut i mean about simple for all? Pft. I amaze myself. How? I hav no idea. Thats for u to decide. But i think i have a solution for getting out of here...including becoming the ultimate Anti-Christ and breaking all h e l l on mordor. I mean even more h e l l. Hav u ever been bossed by saruman? Ppl say u turn to stone just smelling his breath. But, thts never been confirmed....since no one has survived and encounter with him. Anyways. B-R-E-F STANK. TWO WORDS. ALTOIDS. GUM. Uhoh....here he comes. Saruman: do u know how much trouble uve been causing?! Me: uuuuhhhhhmmmm.......none? Saruman: No!!!! Uve kept my poor little goblets awake with ur constant talking!!!! Me: goblets? Like cups? Saruman: no u fool!!!! Goblets as in evil toddlers!!!! Me: *sees a few wicked looking hog like babies staring hungrily at me. I scream.* saruman: *starts to cry* stooooop!!!!! *totally loses it. Goes down on his knees.* me: *slips out the door and locks saruman in the cell. Makes a beeline for the bathroom.......er.....nvm....tht wuz th ladies' bathroom. Oops.* so that wuz my valiant escape from mordor. I next bombed rivendell, nd beat gandalf in a game of Risk AD. He wuz furious. So......before the elves tracked me down...i ran out of middle earth, dueled tigger for the bathroom, and then returned home. THE END? NEVER. BAAAAIIIII

Fun and games at work
I made these eyeball eggs for a luncheon at work today. Here is my desk (and me) decorated for Halloween. Also here's a sign for you luvs. They think I'm a witch at work, do I look like a witch to you?
Oh my gosh! Those are the best eye-eggs ever! I'm going to make some for sure. (I love deviled eggs. I could make an entire meal out of them.) Did you just draw the blood-shot lines on with food coloring and a toothpick?
Thanks for sharing this idea.
Frou, you are adorable. Nice Halloween top and great sign.
The eyeballs are too cute!!
And you are too cute to be anything but a good witch!
I have some of those mice also. I cut mine out of black craft foam so I could reuse them for years and this year they are on my stairs.
You sure are better looking than the witch on your sign, plus I like how you decorated your space at work.
I'm sure your co-workers appreciated your effort also.
Love your sign, Frou, and it's even personalized especially for you! I agree, you are much too cute and friendly looking to be anything but a good witch! Love your fall flowers and the cute mice cutouts too. Those eyeball egss are a hoot, please let us know if everyone ends up with a green tongue and lips! LOL
Frou, love your eyeball eggs and sign. The mice are cute down there on your desk. Pretty fall arrangement too.
Great picture! We have a gal who use to live here who could be your sister. She always had that same beautiful smile. Cutie, you don't look like a witch.

lovely modern restaurant; clean and quiet; excellent service ; very good tapas: inventive salads, delicious tuna; reasonable prices;
3 Days in Barcelona
Best Food in Barcelona
One Day in Barcelona
We stayed in the same building, so for us it was perfect when traveling with a toddler.
After he felt asleep at night we could go downstairs and have something to eat, with the baby call connected to the apartment. It is just 30 seconds from the Apartment to the tapas bar.
Had a late night snack here twice during...
This place was right next door to where we were staying. Fantastic food could not fault it. But I have to say the lighting is really bright and if you are unfortunate not to get to sit on the couch, the remaining seats are little stools that you would not sit on for long. Yes a nice place to eat...
This was the best tapas bar ever been to.

Must-go for any Barcelona visit!
My boyfriend and I stumbled across this restaurant in the hunt for lunch when we were in Barcelona for a long weekend. We loved it so much, we ate there for lunch twice more - there was so much variety for all tastes and we had to stop ourselves from going overboard! I would recommend the cold tapas over the...
Kind staff, great and fresh tapas, tasty drinks.
Don't sit close to the doors, if it isn't hot outside.
Great selection of tapas, always fresh and good value.

Yet for stock-market investors, phone companies seemingly can do no wrong.
When this bull run began in March 2009, telecom stocks fetched just 9.2 times what phone companies had earned over the preceding 12 months, according to data from Bespoke Investment Group. By last week, that had jumped to 23 times -- the biggest increase of any sector excluding financials, and a sign that telecom stocks are rising much faster than their earnings. In contrast, the price/earnings multiple for consumer discretionary companies barely ticked up from 17.6 to 18.1, and while those stocks are up a whopping 200%, profits have risen in lock step with rallying shares.
Our eagerness to pay more for each dollar earned by telecom companies is understandable. We live in an information age of unlimited calling, incessant Web-surfing, and even occasional sexting, and telecom profits are growing unspectacularly but steadily. All those smartphones and tablets lock in monthly payments over years, and such stability and phone companies' rich dividends are especially attractive in these times of economic uncertainty and low interest rates.
The problem? The bullish case is already heard loud and clear. Telecom companies pay out more dividends than ever, but average yield has shrunk to 5.1% from 7% in 2010 as stocks surged. Smartphone sales are still growing worldwide, but the year-over-year pace has slowed to 42% this year from 76% in 2010, says IDC. And the U.S. already has more mobile phones than there are people.

Margin expectations already look high across the stock market. While margins shouldn't collapse, short of a recession, forecasts for S&P 500 profits to grow 11% in 2013 on scant revenue growth assume that margins will expand 0.3 of a percentage point and companies will buy back 3% of shares. That looks aggressive, says Dan Suzuki, BofA Merrill Lynch's U.S. equity strategist. "Even at the peak of buyback activity in 2008, we estimate that S&P 500 companies had net purchases of less than 2%."
Assumptions look most zealous in telecom, where 2013 forecasts anticipate margin expansion of 1.27 percentage points, or an 18% reduction in share count, or some combination of the two. Back in 2008, the telecom sector never bought back more than 2.5% of its shares.
Expectations matter less if stocks are cheap. But Verizon trades at 19.2 times trailing profits, the highest in more than a decade, and AT&T's (T) multiple is near the highest since 2005.

The parts that make up Sprint had invested just $28.6 billion in its wireless network over the past decade, behind $59 billion spent by AT&T and $65 billion by Verizon, says HSBC. The undercapitalized platform won't easily improve given Sprint's necessary position as "a price leader, offering unlimited data while its stronger peers have moved to tiered data plans."
Phone companies would like to keep you on hold a bit longer. The fourth quarter -- crammed with holidays, family calls, and the giving of gadgets that require service contracts -- can ring in a very happy new year. Gains by Republicans this November also could keep the tax rate on dividends near a low 15% and ease federal regulation. And any dithering in Washington on the fiscal cliff could drive investors toward defensive havens like telecom. When that happens, sell into strength and take some profits.
After all, hide-outs work best when they aren't crowded. If bond yields follow the lead of rallying bank and home-builder stocks, more investors might start hanging up on the sector.

Black Diamond Cat Necklace
I bought this for a friend, an older lady. She lost her beloved cat to cancer and has grieved for that pet for a long time. I thought she may think of the necklace as a small comfort. She loved it and named it after her pet. It is small and maybe more for a younger person, but since I bought it for a gift I don't know how it will wear but she is wearing it. It is pretty.Read More

Tiny and Dull- Big dissapointment!
I'm so surprised at the good reviews this has gotten. I depend on the reviews and usually get good advise. Not this time. It's TINY and dull, not shiney like in the pictures. I'd never give this for a gift, unless it was to someone I didn't like- Ha! I think Overstock.com should remove it from their stock. I've bought MANY things from them and am not hard to please. 99% of the time I've very happpy with the quality of the products. Don't waste your time or your money. This one's going back.Read More
Very Dissatisfied.
I purchased this at the beginning of this month. I was so excited and couldn't wait to see it. Wow, what a disappointment. It was tarnished where the silver parts were. It was not shiny as picture showed, and the chain looked so cheap that I was afraid I would break it trying to untangle it as I was taking it out of the baggy. It literally looked like something you would win from a machine at an arcade. I have still not gotten my refund yet. Save yourself some trouble and skip this one.Read More

or it may just mean that the analyst feels the recent stock price increase discounts future growth (valuation downgrade). I would not agree.
Downgrade today from Sidoti, not sure why. I am not selling a share.
higher interest rates if they finally come should be a positive for NWLI in my view.
Looks solid, not as strong as recent quarters. Perhaps some currency effects? BV still going up.
Some patience is clearly required. Enough positives for me to stay the course, added a bit this morning.
Tried to add some on the dip but price ran away from me. Will probably try again if we are under 17.
Earnings out and an article in a local paper out. They appear to be quite busy building an exciting company with these new technologies. Earnings were down but they are in investment mode right now. I see a conservatively managed co. doing the right things. The large insider ownership gives me confidence in a bright future for IKNX.
Also very interesting that they disclosed that Apple is an important customer for their Test division which had huge growth following the EADS acquisition.
They had over 6 MM shares in the latest DEF filing, appears the reduction was in previous quarters if your numbers are correct.
Looks like a substantial reduction in their holdings vs. the last Proxy filing.
He does not even know how to say the name of the company calling it Halozone etc. I would not buy the stock based upon anything he says.
I do think the recent patent reversal on Remicade may increase JNJ interest in the HALO technology...
I am not seeing any regulatory filings related to this. Were any of the details on the contract filed?
thanks - sw
Per their 10-K they have some hedging in place, not clear how much, some products are made in Switzerland others in Asia.
Yes heard it - thanks, looks promising but still early.
Seeing what appears to be much more of a signal in patients with high HA. Anyone know what proportion of patients are high HA?
thanks - sw
Stock up 20.5% or so in 2014, business going along well. Will remain one of my top holdings going into 2015. Discount to BV still far too large to be rational.

Sweet news! We're going to be playing at Canadian Music Week in Toronto this May. Showcase details will be announced in the new year. We've also got tickets to see the Raptors' last game of the season against the Charlotte Hornets on April 15th...Good chance we'll meet Drake and become really good friends and collaborate...
Anyway, congrats to all the other bands who made the first wave!
Today marks our third day of recording at Fader Mountain and things are moving right along. This is how we'll be spending our December, in and out of the studio. Since recording is equally as fun as performing, we're pretty happy to be back at it. We loved working with Paul Boechler on Love Like Mine and Running Wild so we've recruited him to produce and engineer this project as well. Keep checking back for updates!
