Andrew,

That's a big call to offer someone but I guess it does satisfy the second 
criteria maybe.  To meet the 'safe' requirement, one tends to contradict 
the second criteria in searching.  Safe and 'very short term growth' 
represent the magic share that we all look for, that real winner. 

Well 'fraid to disappoint you John but you probably will not find such a 
share unless you go out and play the market many times over.  

Can I remind you of a man called Babe Ruth.  He was the greatest hitter 
in the history of American baseball.  He struck more winners/home runs 
than anyone.  That's what we remember, he hit runs galore.  What we 
forget is this.   Babe Ruth stepped up to the plate the greatest number 
of times and Babe Ruth got struck out the greatest number of times.

Have fun
Chris

NB  Have a look at Transalta(TLT).  NCH are in the process of taking out 
the remaining shares.  You receive 1.86 shares in NCH for each TLT.  Both 
have just gone ex div Monday and are off recent cum div highs of 
$1.72(NCH) and $3.05(TLT).  Check recent announcements and do your own 
calculations.  I see bigger growth for NCH once this is all shaken out.  
Hutt Mana Energy Trust appear to be about to endorse the offer and once 
confirmed compulsory acquisition will occur.  Have a snoop around 
$1.68-$1.71(TLT).  I am looking at +15% in the next 6 weeks.
