Northfield Laboratories Inc. is a company developing an oxygen-carrying red blood cell substitute for the treatment of life-threatening blood loss, when an oxygen-carrying fluid is required and red blood cells are not available. PolyHeme is a solution of chemically modified human hemoglobin that requires no cross matching and is therefore compatible with all blood types. It has a shelf life in excess of 12 months, the company noted in a release.

The army has been trying to develop this for over 25 years. For gosh sakes, it hasn't worked yet and/or caught on yet. The company is still losing money. This would have to be quite a long term buy and hold, IMHO. Phase III study just completed with preliminary data reported. Then needs FDA approval for Biologics License. And then...and then... Okay, the military needs it, if it is approved.

Not trying to rain on this parade. This is one to keep an eye on, only if they get that all-important License. (Was Technical Director of a hospital blood bank and have been paying attention to the development of this for, yes, over 25 years.) River

Realty Income Trust (O) Dividend King!

Realty Income Trust ( O ) Closed 9/7/07 at $26.31 and is currently UNDERVALUED, and its true value should be $42.48 according to Vector
Vest.
I like Realty Income Trust ( O ) because :

1. ( O ) buys property from conveience stores. gas stations, and fast food resturants. It then leases the property back to store operators through Long Term Leases. Realty Income gets the property and a 9% rental yield. A simple model that works and is highly profitable.
2. Last yr shareholders made 34.8%. Since its listing in 1994 on the NYSE
( O ) has given investors a 29% yearly return.
3. Realty income NEVER puts more than 20% of its portfolio into any ONE
industry or more than 10% into any one retail chain.
4. Since Realty Income is a REIT, it pays NO corporate tax , and distributes all its profits back to shareholders.
5. ( O ) Has been in business for 37 yrs, and has paid 440 CONSECUTIVE monthly dividends, and 38 consecutive dividend increases.

Realty Income Trust ( O ) would make a great addition to your IRA and Super addition to your ROTH IRA. Reinvest all dividends , and you will have a "Mother Lode" in your retirement years.

Pete,
Thanks for bringing O to my attention. I've currently got lots of CNE paying around 15% but it's kind of shakey and O is much more stable. Might be adding it to IRA shortly. Thanks again.

Garmin (GRMN ) Great GPS!

Bought a Garmin Nuvi 350 for my daughter at COSTCO .......she loves the deck of cards sized unit which fits into a slim case and mounts easily in the car. Originally purchased a Magellen GPS but had to return it ......that unit sucked .......no comparison to The Garmin . Garmin is also a nice stock with a great chart.

Salient points about the stock:

1. According to Morningstar GPS sales witll TRIPLE in the next 3 years.

2. US air traffic will triple by 2025 and conventional systems are outmoded. GARMIN makes a GPS based technology called Automatic Dependent Surveillance Broadcast technology and it will be the future of air traffic control systems.

3. Ford and Chrysler offer Garmin GPS systems in their cars , and almost the entire rental fleet which includes Avis, Enterprize, Dollar, Thrifty , National and Alamo.

4. Garmin's GPS units were hot sellers last Christmas and appear to break records this year also.

5. Garmin has great distribution in stores such as Costco, Target, Best Buy , and Walmart.

6. Insiders own 41% of the stock.

7. garmin has NO debt and almost $360 million in cash and generated $130 Million.

8. Since its 2000 IPO Garmen has grown sales at an annualized rate of 31%

9. Garmin earns returns of around 50% on its invested capital ....needless to say better than MOST companies .

GARMIN looks good to me ......and I think it would make a good position for your Long Term Portfolio.

LPHI Drop?

LPHI had an unbelievable drop this AM..........perhaps the answer is below?

Updates with comments from company, analyst on stock price drop.)
DOW JONES NEWSWIRES
Life Partners Holdings Inc. (LPHI) said Wednesday it expects to report fiscal second-quarter earnings of 46 cents a share, far above year-ago earnings of 2 cents a share, but the company's shares dropped sharply after the announcement.
R. Scott Peden, president of the Waco, Texas, company's Life Partners Inc. unit, said the company wasn't sure why the stock was lower, but added that there is a short position of about 1.5 million shares in Life Partners. The company has about 9.6 million shares outstanding.
Peden suggested traders with short positions may be trying to hold down the stock price. He said, however, that the company's fundamentals are strong, adding that Life Partners "expects the fundamentals to overtake the shorts."
The company, which helps the terminally ill sell their life insurance policies for immediate cash, said revenue for the quarter ended Aug. 30 more than doubled to $17.7 million from $7 million a year ago.
Life Partners' second-quarter earnings estimate of 46 cents a share fell short of the 57 cents estimate from Taglich Brothers' John Nobile, the only analyst that covers the stock.
Nobile said he adjusted his earnings forecast up after the company beat his first-quarter estimate by 38 cents. He said he still sees Life Partner's second-quarter estimate as "pretty positive."
Nobile suggested the stock price may have dropped so significantly because, at 46 cents, the company's guidance is slightly below its first-quarter earnings of 49 cents a share. He noted revenue may be more volatile going forward as the company deals with more institutional sales.
For the first half of the fiscal year, Life Partners expects earnings of 95 cents a share on revenue of $35 million.
Life Partners also said it expects a "very positive" second half as its institutional relationship with a special purpose entity funded by international bank WestLB AG brings additional revenue.
Life Partners' stock hit a 52-week high of $52.90 Sept. 5. The 52-week low was $5.49, reached Sept. 15, 2006.
Shares of Life Partners recently traded down $6.68, or 14%, at $40.60.
