Lifted from another site - more to come - with thanks to "trucking duck"
From the Circular :
Biotec has commercial license agreement with a company called Earthshell. Earthshell was granted an exclusive worldwide license covering the technology and related I P rights for the use and commercial exploitation of food service disposable products, being disposable products for the packaging, storing, or serving of food or beverages intended for consumption within a sort period of time.
..
The minimum monthly royalty pre-payment fee is $100,000 payable to Biotec by earthshell plus 25% of any sub-licensing revenues earned by Earthshell & 5% of the net annual sales of the products.
Slightly confused here as earthshell will seem to clash with Starpool would it not ?
Whats the betting SEO are after buying Earthshell ?, these may explain the reasons for the EGM and special resolutions regarding increased funding etc etc, any thoughts ?

"OWINGS MILLS, Md., Oct. 8 /PRNewswire/ -- Sweetheart Cup Company Inc., one of the

Hi All,
Starpol 2000 looking better value by the day !!!!
Dryden research just released a note on Brent Crude, suggesting the Oil price could reach $84 a barrel this year, if it does not fall back from the current high .... which they seem to think it won't ....
Crude Oil (Brent): $61.98 Potential high for Crude Oil (Brent). The Crude Oil (Brent) price has now arrived at levels, which should determine the immediate outlook. It has risen to the upper trend line of a rising wedge (bearish) and appears to have completed five wave patterns from the lows of 13th December 2004, 23 May 2005 and 21st July 2005. If the high is in place we can expect the Oil price to decline to test the 23rd May 2005 low if not the December 2004 low before rallying to make new highs. However the seasonal bias is for the oil price to continue higher into October before correcting into December (highlighted on the chart). If it holds true this year then price targets at $84 come into play.
Cheers,
PM

Can you all tell me what you do about CGT-I'm up to my limit so can't sell SEO when it rockets unless I want to line Gordons' coffers must admit that would be painful but I can't sit around doing nothing for the rest of the year!! Do you all pay up and look happy or should I jump into the spreadbetting pool??
