Massive Income Opportunity:
Here's your chance to test-drive this
NEW cutting-edge research FREE for 90 days.
It's crucial that you respond immediately!
The first 100 investors who respond to this invitation will be accepted at a special discount.
Dear Reader,
If you're one of the folks sitting on the sidelines right now, there's probably one question you want the answer to more than any other…
Did I miss out on the rally?
As it turns out, it's a popular question that turns up nearly 24 million results on Google.
And the short answer to it is YES. You missed out.
"It's an emotional reaction. 2008 and 2009 were like being in the fetal position. Now everyone wants to buy."—D.A., financial planner, Scottsdale, Arizona |
The odds of the market tacking on ANOTHER 158% are slim… and none.
That's bad news.
You know you need to build a nest egg for your retirement.
Or if you're already retired, you need income now!
You probably feel like you have to do something.
In my opinion, at no other time in American history since the Great Depression have investors endured such a challenging period in identifying high-quality, long-term income investments.
Hi, my name is Phil Ash and I'm the Executive Publisher at Investing Daily. It's not often that you'll hear from me. I prefer to let my small army of investing experts do the talking. But today is different. You see, today I'm pulling the wraps of our new high-income investment advisory, Global Income Edge. Global Income Edge is the third service in our stable to bear the "Edge" name. It's a distinction I don't hand out very often. After all, our flagship "Edge"service, Canadian Edge, has delivered readers gains of up of 785% and yields as high as 9.5%. And its sister publication, Australian Edge, has handed readers gains like 142.4% and yields of up to 7.4%. So it goes without saying that I have high expectations for Global Income Edge. That's why I hired Richard Stavros. There's no one more uniquely qualified than Richard to head up Global Income Edge and deliver the same kind of high-income payouts and capital gains that its sister publications do. Richard has the kind of experience most analysts could only dream about putting on a résumé. That includes two degrees from Georgetown University and an MBA from Oxford University. More impressive, though, is his extensive experience as founder of the emerging markets strategy and financial advisory Thomas Dwight Capital. There he has advised multi-billion-dollar U.S. mutual funds on infrastructure investments, he's advised multi-billion-dollar European funds on real estate development and he recently guided a Mexican shipping company through asset valuations and business diversification. Here's the best news for you: I'm opening enrollment to his service a month earlier than we had planned. The reason? I want to reward loyal Investing Daily readers (like you) by offering you the opportunity to join our new research advisory BEFORE we open it to the general public. Not only will you get first crack at the five companies you'll see in just a minute, but you'll also get a special pricing offer. But you need to act quickly. I can only afford to let 100 people take a sneak peak at this high-income advisory today. When we hit that number, we'll close out the offer and you'll have to wait until we open enrollment up to the masses at the full price. |
I want to let you in on my solution.
I've developed a formula that I call the Income Blueprint.
It's my new secret weapon for pinpointing low-risk, high-income investments.
I'd like to give you access to it today… along with a special report called "Income Afterburners."
Inside you'll get all the details (including ticker symbols and prices to buy under) on five companies my formula singled out.
It's so powerful that one of these companies is already showing smart investors payouts of up to $17,179.
I'll show you how to reserve a copy for yourself in just a minute.
The Income Architect
My name is Richard Stavros and I'm the Chief Investment Analyst for Investing Daily's NEW high-income research advisory, Global Income Edge.
If my name sounds familiar, you may have read my work in our daily e-letter, Stocks to Watch.
Or you may have come across it in one of our premium publications like Personal Finance or Utility Forecaster.
Over 200,000 investors from 32 countries rely on Investing Daily for its unique brand of investing advice.
I've been refining the Income Blueprint Formula for nearly 10 years now.
In fact, the engine of my formula is what drives the exclusive Early Warning System in our sister publication Utility Forecaster—an advisory service that is currently giving its readers an average gain of 293% per pick.
That's not bad.
It's a far cry better than what the S&P 500 will give you.
But I wanted to do even better.
I wanted to create a research advisory that delivers payouts so massive that you'll still have money left over to add to your nest egg… or to use for that dream vacation in the brochure you have tucked away somewhere.
So I worked until I perfected a formula that did exactly that.
And I purposely didn't constrain my proprietary formula to any one industry or even any particular country.
Here's why: Forbes recently analyzed the returns of a hypothetical global portfolio against those of a U.S.-only one, and here's what they found.
The diversified international portfolio turned $100,000 into $191,772 in 10 years.
The domestic-only portfolio returned 22% less.
In fact, the global portfolio outperformed the domestic portfolio a staggering 96% of the time over a series of 121 rolling three-year periods.
That's why my Income Blueprint Formula is designed specifically to ruthlessly pursue income anywhere in the world.
The Perfect High-Income Formula?
The Income Blueprint Formula is powered by something I developed years ago called the DuPont Hybrid Model.
The original DuPont model was developed nearly 100 years ago and it's still in use today because…
… it's supremely effective at pinpointing companies that excel in generating profits from the money shareholders invest (return on equity).
It's so effective, Warren Buffett uses the principles behind it to compare companies against their peers.
And a study by Charles Schwab is further proof of its power.
It showed there's a high correlation between return on equity—safety—and the ability to continue paying dividends over time.
Here's some real proof on how effective it is.
Since 2009, I've used the engine of the Income Blueprint Formula to rate all the stocks in the utility sector… and here are the results.
My top 10 utilities from 2009 returned 43% MORE than the competition.
My 2010 top 10 list crushed the competition's returns by 81%.
And my 2011 list out-returned their peers by a staggering 151%.
In fact, the utilities my formula pinpointed have beaten their competition every year since I developed it.
I'll show you exactly how this high-income formula works when you agree to test-drive my new research advisory, Global Income Edge.
When you do, I'll send you the special report "Income Afterburners"…
Let me show you five opportunities my Income Blueprint Formula pinpointed for you.
High-Income Opportunity #1
I think it's safe to say you're going to love this first company.
And here's why: It pays a $4 dividend.
You didn't read that wrong. It pays a $4 dividend.
That means the yield on this gem is 10%.
That's almost unheard of!
That's the kind of payout that will not only give you the money you need to live on but will also ensure you still have some left over to put away for a rainy day.
You've no doubt heard about the energy boom here in the United States.
This company is making a handsome profit because of it.
My pick provides a critical, unique tool to exploration companies fighting to bring resources to the surface.
This tool is so rare, the company charges $635,000 a day to use it… and its customers gladly pay it.
Here's the best part: It doesn't just own one of these tools.
It owns 69 of them.
"Given that U.S. stocks today are considered by many to be fully valued while foreign stocks are still relatively cheap, it wouldn't be unreasonable to devote slightly more of your holdings to foreign stocks than you typically would."—Carolyn T. Geer, Wall Street Journal |
This dividend monster also has global reach.
It boasts operations in energy hotbeds like Brazil, the North Atlantic, Africa, the Pacific Rim and the Middle East.
That diversification brings a layer of safety you won't get by investing in an American energy company that bet all its money on one hand.
I think it's safe to say that when I give you the full story, you'll be shocked… in a good way.
You need to act quickly, though, because share price is up 14% since April.
If you buy shares now… you'll be sitting on a total return of 30.9% in a year.
High-Income Opportunity #2
Your second high-income opportunity boasts one of the highest yields I've ever seen…
… a stunning 20.5%!
It just goes to show you the power behind my Income Blueprint Formula.
My formula has the power to uncover this type of opportunity in any market… in any country.
This company is based in Norway, but don't worry—like ALL of the companies in our portfolio, it's listed on a U.S. exchange. Because they're subject to U.S. reporting requirements, this makes them safe and convenient to purchase.
Take a look at what its share price has done recently…
It tacked on 31% since March, and I don't expect it to slow down anytime soon.
When that happens, you'll be sitting on a total return of 43% (including its massive dividend).
But only if you grab shares now. My special report will show you how.
High-Income Opportunity #3
This opportunity comes from a market that's experiencing explosive growth: telecommunications.
But this isn't your old-fashioned Ma Bell type of phone company.
This opportunity is a cutting-edge tech company that is feeding the appetites of data-hungry smartphone users around the world.
If you're tied to your smartphone—or you've bumped into a teenager who's more interested in the tiny screen in their hands than what's going on around them—then you understand how massive this trend is.
This company currently serves 434 million mobile customers and 9 million broadband customers in Europe, the Middle East, Africa, Asia and America.
You'll like that kind of diversification because it allows the company to weather downturns in any particular region it operates in…
… but you'll love it more for the $2.47 dividend it pays.
This isn't a $100 stock… or a $50 stock either.
It clocks in at $33, which means its yield is 6.9%.
That's over three-and-a-half times the S&P 500's.
The Income Blueprint Formula projects its share price will hit almost $38 in the next year.
That would net you a total return of 20.2%.
I'll give you all the details, including the ticker symbol and price to buy under, in my special report.
You can reserve your FREE COPY in just a minute.
High-Income Opportunity #4
High-Income Opportunity #4 is a U.S.-based company that services the growing legions of data-hungry smartphone users around the globe.
It has a strong foothold here, serving nearly a third of the population.
But it also sports operations in Europe, Canada and the world's largest market—China.
You'll also like that its reach is growing, with the recent announcement of plans for an acquisition that would give it broad access to the exploding Latin American market.
There's something else that's growing as well: Its share price.
It's up 11% in the last five months.
Throw in a $1.84 dividend on a $35.40 share price (5.2% yield) and you have another "must-own" company for your portfolio.
You'll get all its lucrative details in my special report.
High-Income Opportunity #5
This U.S.-based investment manager is your chance to cash in on the world's growing middle class.
As throngs of people graduate to a middle-class lifestyle, one of the first things they'll seek out is financial advice.
And Opportunity #5 is the most diversified global asset manager in the world, with $466 billion under management.
It currently yields 5.9%, and you can grab shares for a little over $26.
A disclosure by the company shows Frank R. from Minnetonka, Minnesota, received a dividend check for $2,520 just the other week.
Mark F. from Whitehall, Maryland, just banked a cool payout of $5,066.
And Geoffrey L. from Palm Beach, Florida, cashed a massive $17,179 check… all thanks to the company I call High-Income Opportunity #5.
I'll give you all the details in my special report.
Here's how to claim your FREE copy.

Listeriosis is an infection that can occur when a person eats food that has been contaminated with bacteria called Listeria monocytogenes (L. monocytogenes).
The bacterium Listeria monocytogenes is found in wild animals, domesticated animals, and in soil and water. These bacteria make many animals sick, leading to miscarriage and stillbirth in domestic animals.
Vegetables, meats, and other foods you eat can get infected with the bacteria if they come in contact with contaminated soil or manure. Raw milk or products made from raw milk may carry these bacteria.
If you eat the contaminated products, you may get sick. The following people are at increased risk:
The bacteria most often cause a gastrointestinal illness. In some cases, you can develop a blood infection (septicemia ) or inflammation of the covering of the brain (meningitis ). Infants who are 5 days or older and children often have meningitis.
Infection in early pregnancy may cause a miscarriage. The bacteria may cross the placenta and infect the developing baby. Infections in late pregnancy may lead to stillbirth or death of the infant within a few hours of birth. About half of infants infected at or near term will die.
In adults, the disease may take many forms, depending on what organ or organ systems are infected. It may occur as:
Or it may occur in a milder form as:
In infants, symptoms of listeriosis may be seen in the first few days of life and may include:
Laboratory tests may be done to detect the bacteria in amniotic fluid, blood, feces, and urine. A CSF culture will be performed if a spinal tap is performed.
Antibiotics (including ampicillin or trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole) are prescribed to kill the bacteria that are causing the infection.
Listeriosis in a fetus or infant results in a poor outcome with a high death rate. Healthy older children and adults have a lower death rate. Gastrointenstinal infections in healthy persons are rarely fatal.
Infants who survive listeriosis may have long-term brain and nervous system (neurological) damage and delayed development.
Call your health care provider if you or your child develop symptoms of listeriosis.
Pregnant women should avoid contact with wild and domestic animals. Listeria is well controlled in American food products, but food-associated outbreaks have occurred.
Pregnant women should avoid eating soft cheeses, deli meats, and cold salads from salad bars. Foreign food products such as non-pasteurized soft cheeses have also led to outbreaks of listeriosis. Always cook food thoroughly.

Bongo Girls' Outerwear
Warm up with girls' outerwear from Kmart

Kmart has a variety of options from fleece hoodies for the winter to girls' denim jackets for chilly summer evenings.

Berlin City Toyota Used Inventory
Purchasing a used vehicle is a big decision just as buying a new car is, but with a used car purchase, you have to have faith in your car dealer to get a high quality pre-owned vehicle at a good price. When buying a new car, you know you're getting a car that's in tip-top condition because it has no previous owners, but with a used car, you have to hope the car is in as good a condition as the car dealer claims it is. When buying used cars in Portland, Maine or elsewhere, it's very important to have a car salesperson you can trust, and that's where Berlin City Toyota comes in.
Out of all the Toyota dealerships in Portland, we're the one who can promise you a high quality used car at a price you can afford. If you're shopping around for used cars, trucks and SUV's in Maine, Vermont, New Hampshire or anywhere in the country, be sure to check out the huge selection of used Toyota vehicles on our lot today. Berlin City Toyota, serving Portland, Scarborough, Westbrook and Falmouth, Maine, has an ever-changing selection of Toyota vehicles you'll love. If you check online and don't see a Toyota you want right away, then check back again soon because our inventory changes daily.
Over the years, we have created lasting relationships with local financial institutions, and we understand that financing can be a stressful situation. At Berlin City Toyota, we make buying a used car fun. We are patient, thorough and hard working. We'll explain the entire process to you, explore your options, answer all of your questions and make sure you get the used Toyota you love at a price that works for you. You can count on Berlin City Toyota over all the other Maine Toyota dealers to work with you to get you the best price possible.

A stack of Diaper Clutches for my book group |
Wednesday, June 1, 2011
What's going on
30 comments:
Oh, Amy, I feel for you! I thought people were crazy, too, till I put my daughter on the bus the first day of kindergarten - I cried all day, and took a good couple of months to adjust! Whew! Are there TWO kids in that pile?? Cute! Love those diaper carriers, and good luck in my giveaway that you entered - thanks!
ReplyDeleteGlad to see that my kids aren't the only one who pull their mattresses to the floor! And my oldest starts kindergarten in the fall and I feel the same, only difference is mines the big kid of the family. I want summer to crawl along and really enjoy these last few months of him home. Enjoy your time as well, and we will overlook any random or boring blog posts untill then!
ReplyDeleteI think I've been hiding under a rock or something. I'm sorry to have missed you at market -- I've been reading back over your posts -- it looks like you had a FABULOUS time!!! (You cracked me up with your comment about the Moda Utah bag -- I said almost exactly the same thing -- Had. to. have. it!!!)
ReplyDeleteFamily first... that's one reason why I enjoy following you (not to mention you are crazy talented)! Every milestone with each child is such a precious gift and one day when they are grown you will look back and enjoy sharing these memories with them. They are what make all of the crazy times so worthwhile! Mine are all grownup and they always find there Mama waiting for them at home. God Bless!
ReplyDeleteYou are not alone! One note though... It only gets worse from here! Mine range from 22 years to 16 years and I am more disorganized and busier than ever. I was able to have everything under control until the first went to high school and it was all downhill from there. Enjoy it while it lasts. Elementary school is only the calm before the storm!
ReplyDeleteLove that last photo--terrific. I had my grandsons here last weekend and although it's hard when your children grow up, you get grandchildren! And that's the best ever, although I have to say I didn't believe it when my mother would say it.
I treasure the memories I have of my children, and am glad to see that you are taking the time to make memories--and record them in the way of funny photos.
Have a good end-of-school year experience, and hope your summer gets off to a good start!

Thank you so much for your comments - they make my day! I try to respond to as many as my 'mommy' time allows, but life sometimes gets in the way. Please know how much I appreciate each of them.
I apologize for the current comment settings that require a registered user account. They are the only way that I don't get tons of gross spam. I'm hoping Blogger will make a way where people who are not registered users, but would like to leave a comment can do so. Please, Blogger! In the mean time, thanks for your patience.
I also love to respond to questions. If you are a no-reply blogger, please leave an email address so I can get back to you. Or you can email me directly: amy @ diaryofaquilter.com. Thanks!

He's largely invisible, excepting when he makes a stupid mistake.
I look at things with objective eyes. Stats are objective. He has consistently allowed 3+ goals/60min TOI at even strength (that's horrible). I don't want to hear that he plays against opponents top lines. A statistician will tell you that will only skew the numbers slightly over the course of a season. Go email Tom Awad at the Puck Prospectus and get his GVT rating (a value versus replacement metric) since he's been with the Blues. That is as OBJECTIVE a rating as you can possibly get. Barret Jackman has averaged a GVT of about 3 over the past two seasons (meaning his value over a replacement translates to an increased goal differential of 3 over the entire length of the season, about the value of a #4-5 defenseman), and I guarantee you that Brewer's GVT is lower than that.
I have watched Brewer play, and my evaluation only confirms the statistical analysis. What are you basing your evaluation on?
Mine is not expecting him to be Chris Pronger.
I watch what he does. I see him objectively and I like what I see for the money he costs.
Are we supposed to put a lot of value on the opinion of a guy with multiple Curtis Sanford jerseys?
Game worn jersey as well, if I am not mistaken.

Oooh, scary! But. If it's just people from other colleges who say that, they're probably jealous...it might almost be motivational, seeing other people in your college all constantly working.
Oh, I know! But the catching up is such an enormous pain...especially on days when I have four subjects.
October 4th, 2012, 05:09 PM #722
Well, we'll see. Hopefully it shouldn't be an issue. Nearly got everything done with UCAS now and it has to be sent off by the 15th, so I won't have to worry about that aspect of it for too much longer.
I know...
I can't believe it's October already. How dare time not bow to my every whim?

Guess what!!!!! Life of Pi is being made a movie, coming out in November. So excited!!!! Aaaaaand the best part......the main character's last name is SHARMA Muahahahaha
October 8th, 2012, 02:36 PM #724
I know!! I'm pretty excited about it, got to say, though I read the book a veeery long time ago so I don't remember all that much about it...
October 8th, 2012, 04:04 PM #725
This might prompt me to finally read 'Life of Pi', which could only be a good thing!
And yes, I've always thought it was a bit strange that Alison called the Nameless One Sharma, given that it's actually a pretty common Indian surname...
October 9th, 2012, 05:19 PM #726
I've certainly known quite a few people with Sharma as a surname...
October 13th, 2012, 04:27 PM #727
Yes, me too.
On another note, I'm not sure I can deal with this shiny new format!

Far too modern and 21st-century for me.

Indeed it is...
Are you doing anything nice over half term?
November 5th, 2012, 02:24 PM #730
Oh god, I worked so much. Had to prepare a lecture for my English class on five books; spent several hours on it. We're having interim assessments this week, and I just haven't had time to revise because I've spent all my time during the holidays on homework. :/ But I did go skiing for two days! Which was brill, but deprived me further of revision time...You?
November 7th, 2012, 02:22 PM #731
That sounds ... fun ... Hope the assessments went well. My half term was mixed in that I went on a school trip, which was great, and then spent the rest of it stressing about work without actually doing much of it . It seems a very long time ago now, though.
This week has been a bit of a mad rush with admissions tests and submitting essays for universities, but it's calming down a bit now, thank goodness. And this morning's news was certainly a relief.
November 7th, 2012, 02:50 PM #732
Oh wow, where'd you go? I know, it feels like ages since the half term - and even longer since I was actually at school. Doesn't feel very real somehow.
Oh yes, how was the test? Agreed on this morning so hard - suddenly my tests didn't seem so awful, and my entire form (including the true blue Tories) had a party and hugged each other before registration. I think we're almost too invested in America.
November 10th, 2012, 05:36 PM #733
We just went over to the Continent for a bit. It was brilliant, but you're right, it seems like years ago now.
The test wasn't too bad, but I think other people will have thought so too, so we'll just have to see. I'm mainly happy that it's over.
I think you're right that in some senses we're too invested in America, and it gets to me that we always give their news higher priority. But in this case it would have made such a difference that I think it's justified. And in the absence of inspiring, less centralised politics over here, it's understandable that we pay more attention to America.
November 12th, 2012, 02:16 PM #734
Just got back my first Greek composition test. NOT wonderful. Luckily my other scores bumped my overall grade up to an A, but I'm seriously embarrassed by some of the weird things I got wrong!
I definitely think it's justified! Really, British politics can get so uninspiring and unimaginative. As much as I'd hate it if Romney had actually somehow won, that element of risk and a real choice between very different candidates was exciting.
November 12th, 2012, 05:17 PM #735
The thing about prose composition is that you get a lot better at it over time. And it really makes you think about how the language works, which means you get better at unseens too. I know it feels ridiculously hard initially, and I still mysteriously forget the words for 'to say' and 'to go' as soon as I have a test on it, but practice really makes a difference. It will force you to learn declensions, though.
Exactly - it feels like there's much more at stake. (And, um, I know I brought this up, but I just remembered that this site has a ban on talking politics, so maybe we should stop it there...)

Small cell lung cancer (SCLC) is a fast-growing type of lung cancer . It spreads much more quickly than non-small cell lung cancer .
There are two types of SCLC:
Most SCLCs are of the oat cell type.
Cancer - lung - small cell; Small cell lung cancer; SCLC
About 15% of all lung cancer cases are SCLC. Small cell lung cancer is slightly more common in men than women.
Almost all cases of SCLC are due to cigarette smoking. SCLC is rare in people who have never smoked.
SCLC is the most aggressive form of lung cancer. It usually starts in the breathing tubes (bronchi) in the center of the chest. Although the cancer cells are small, they grow very quickly and create large tumors. These tumors often spread rapidly (metastasize) to other parts of the body, including the brain, liver, and bone.
Symptoms of SCLC include:
Other symptoms that may occur with this disease, especially in the late stages, include:
The doctor will perform a physical exam and ask about your medical history. You will be asked whether you smoke, and if so, how much and for how long.
When listening to your chest with a stethoscope, the doctor may hear fluid around the lungs or areas where the lung has partially collapsed . Each of these findings may suggest cancer.
SCLC has usually spread to other parts of your body by the time it is diagnosed.
Tests that may be performed include:
In most cases, a piece of tissue is removed from your lungs or other areas to be examined under a microscope. This is called a biopsy. There are several ways to do a biopsy:
Usually if a biopsy shows cancer, more imaging tests are done to find out the stage of the cancer. Stage means how big the tumor is and how far it has spread. SCLC is classified as either:
Because SCLC spreads quickly throughout the body, treatment must include cancer-killing drugs (chemotherapy ) taken by mouth or injected into the body.
Treatment with both chemotherapy and radiation is done for people with SCLC that has spread throughout the body. In this case, the treatment only helps relieve symptoms. It does not cure the disease.
Radiation therapy can be used with chemotherapy if surgery is not possible. Radiation therapy uses powerful x-rays or other forms of radiation to kill cancer cells.
Radiation may be used to:
Often, SCLC may have already spread to the brain. This can occur even when there are no symptoms or other signs of cancer in the brain. As a result, some patients with smaller cancers, or who had a good response in their first round of chemotherapy may receive radiation therapy to the brain. This method is called prophylactic cranial irradiation (PCI).
Surgery helps very few patients with SCLC because the disease has often spread by the time it is diagnosed. Surgery may be done when there is only one tumor that has not spread. If surgery is done, chemotherapy or radiation therapy is still needed.
You can ease the stress of illness by joining a cancer support group . Sharing with others who have common experiences and problems can help you not feel alone.
How well you do depends on how much the lung cancer has spread. SCLC is very deadly. Not many people with this type of cancer are still alive 5 years after diagnosis.
Treatment can often prolong life for 6 to 12 months, even when the cancer has spread.
Call your health care provider if you have symptoms of lung cancer, particularly if you smoke.
If you smoke, now is the time to quit. Also try to avoid secondhand smoke.

MESA, Ariz. -- On Tuesday, nearly 3,000 students at Skyline High School in Mesa witnessed a mock crash that could change their lives. It was all in effort to get students to focus while behind the wheel.
The mock crash included one car with four students inside and was supposed to simulate a one-car crash, with one person dead because of the distracted driver.
Students said the crash sent a clear message that drinking and driving, as well as distractions, don't mix.

Auburn, Alabama — The Auburn University College of Veterinary Medicine student chapter of the Society for Theriogenology was awarded the first ever Student Chapter of the Year (SCOTY) award at the 2013 national conference in Louisville, and was recognized for the group's year-long activities provided to their members and its active student participation. This award, the first given by the national association, was sponsored by Rood and Riddle Equine Hospital, and a $1,000 prize was awarded to the chapter, which will be used to provide a diverse range of activities for student members this coming year. "I am so proud of all the students. They represented Auburn professionally and enthusiastically" says Dr. Aime Johnson, faculty advisor for the student SFT chapter. "They worked very hard all year planning meetings and wetlabs, and competing at the national conference. This award was well deserved and I know they plan on working just as hard next year." The chapter was recognized as the one which most exemplified the SFT's mission "to promote standards of excellence in reproductive medicine, to provide outreach and education to veterinarians, and to foster continual improvements in theriogenology." Other criteria included student participation in club activities throughout the year as well as at the national conference, student abstracts accepted for presentation or poster, T-shirt design competition, and participation and placement in the Merck Therio Quiz Bowl, also held at the Louisville conference. In addition to the SCOTY award, Auburn veterinary students won first place in the student Quiz Bowl competition, three students placed in the top six of student Case Presenters; the chapter took home second place in the T-shirt design competition. "Competition for the award was fierce", said Drew Hestad, a second year student from Lexington, Ky., who serves as president of the Auburn chapter. "Students' presence and performance at the national SFT conference as well as the quality of educational activities provided by each university's club to its student members during the school year were all factors that went into deciding who was the best." Hestad said the Auburn students "were exposed to activities that were both numerous and diverse. Multiple lectures and wet labs were provided throughout the school year, featuring a variety of speakers, which concentrated on topics ranging from small animal reproduction to breeding-induced endometritis in the mare." The three students who presented cases with published abstracts were: Amanda Durand, who took 4th place, (Seminal vesiculitis in a gelding); Deanna Cotton, awarded 5th place (Transitional cell carcinoma of the vagina in a dog); and Anna Daniel-Reddish, who garnered 6th place (Recurrent seminal vesiculitis in a stallion). The Quiz Bowl team consisted of fourth-year student Hannah Thomas, Hestad and second-year student Emily Mysinger. The Society for Theriogenology is an organization of veterinarians dedicated to animal reproduction, whose mission is to promote standards of excellence in reproductive medicine, to provide outreach and education to veterinarians, and to foster continual improvements in theriogenology.

Drug-induced tremor is involuntary shaking due to the use of medication. Involuntary means you shake without trying to do so. The shaking occurs when you move or try to hold your arms, hands, or head in a certain position. It is not associated with other symptoms.
See also:
Tremor - drug-induced
Drug-induced tremor is a simple nervous system and muscle response to certain medications. Drugs that can cause tremor include the following:
The tremor may affect the hands, arms, head, or eyelids. It rarely affects the lower body and may not affect both sides of the body equally.
The shaking is usually fast, at about 4 to 12 movements per second.
The tremor may be:
The tremor can:
Other symptoms may include:
Your doctor or nurse can make the diagnosis by performing a physical exam and asking questions about your medical and personal history, especially your medication use.
A physical exam will show shaking with movement. There are usually no problems with coordination or mental function.
Other tests are usually not needed. However, further tests may be done to rule out other reasons for the tremor. A tremor that occurs when the muscles are relaxed or that affects the legs or coordination may be a sign of another condition, such as Parkinson's disease. The speed of the tremor can be an important way to determine its cause.
Other causes of tremors may include:
Blood tests and imaging studies (such as a CT scan of the head, brain MRI , and x-rays) are usually normal.
Drug-induced tremor will usually go away when you stop taking the medicine that is causing the shaking.
You may not need treatment or changes in medications if the tremor is mild and does not interfere with your daily activity.
If the benefit of the medicine is greater than the problems caused by the tremor, you may try different doses or types of medicines. Different doses or similar medications may not cause the tremor.
In rare cases, a drug such as propanalol may be added to help control the tremor.
Never stop taking any medicine without first talking to your health care provider.
Severe tremor can interfere with daily activities, especially fine motor skills such as writing, and other activities such as eating or drinking.
Call your health care provider if you are taking a medication and a tremor develops that interferes with your activity or is accompanied by other symptoms.
Always tell your doctor about the medicines you take. Take over-the-counter drugs with caution, especially those that contain stimulants or a medicine called theophylline.
Caffeine can cause tremor and make tremor caused by other medications worse. Avoid caffeinated drinks such as coffee, tea, and soda. Also avoid other stimulants if you have tremor.

The college News Z-615 VOL. XXV, No. 2 BRYN MAWR AND WAYNE, PA., WEDNESDAY, OCTOBER 19, 1938 Copyright TRUSTEES OP BRYN MAWR COLLEGE, 1938 PRICE 10 CENTS College Council Discusses Old, New Problems Freshman Week, the Record Library, College Movies, Are Main Topics GLEE CLUB PLANS STILL UNDECIDED The President's House, October IS.� The first council meeting of the year was - held at Miss Park's house last Thursday. During dinner members of the council discussed the minutes of the meeting on May 10, and later progressed" to problems which have arisen this year. The main subjects under discussjon were the Record Library, Freshman Week, a new schedule of meetings for the A. S. U., the International Relations Club and the Industrial Group, plans for the Glee Club, and a movie of the college to be directed by Miss Barbara Cary. Rules'lor the Record Library have been drawn up by an Undergraduate Committee. The collection is to be set up in Rhoads in two rooms, one for the victrola and the other for records. A membership fee of one dollar a year will be charged and a subsidiary rental fee of five cents for two records and ten cents for an album for three days. Fines will be five cents a day for overdue records "and two dollars for breakage. Students must use non- metallic needles, and jazz will not be ^permitted at any time. The record room will be open Mon- day and Friday and the victrola room every day except Sunday when the library will be closed. It was sug- gested that it be closed on Saturday instead of Sunday because students usually work all Saturday and have leisure time on Sunday. Eleanor Taft replied that records can be taken out for three days and played any time over the week-end, including Sunday. A larger committee of upperclass- men and prearranged appointments for freshmen coming with their par- ents made Freshman Week run much more smoothly this year. The fresh- man chairman said that she would have liked to see even more upper- classmen because it was easier to get to know them before the rest of the undergraduates returned. Martha Van Hoesen, '39, thought that Stu- dent Advisors should be more aware of their responsibilities. She sug- gested that they sign up earlier and have a meeting before the end of the year to explain what they must do. Continued on Page Three Four Organizations Hold Joint Meeting Social and Political Heads Give Outline of Their Platforms For the Year Common Room, October IS.�Bryn Mawr's four organizations designed to promote interest in national and in- ternational affairs came together for an evening to introduce the freshmen to their activities. The speakers at the meeting included Elizabeth Di- mock, '41, of the Bryn Mawr Chapter of the American Students' Union, Laura Estabrook, '39, of the Inter- national Relations' Club, Helen Cobb, '40, of the Peace Council, and Lucille Sauder, '39, of the Industrial Group. Each organization explained its function and platform. Laura Esta- brook introduced the speakers and conducted the first half of the meet- ing. She stressed the point that none of the groups represented conflicted in any way, and that it is possible to work for all four of them. Later Elizabeth Dimock presided in a gen- eral A. S. U. discussion. Miss Dimock was the first speaker of the evening. She emphasized the fact that the A. S. U. is based on four main points, Peace, Freedom, Equal- ity, Security, and that it is possible to join the group and work for one point only. The A. S. U. is divided into small groups which work on top- ics such as Labor, Students' Problems, Continued on Page Three JOURNALIST TO DISCUSS LATE EUROPEAN CRISIS Raymond Gram Swing, author of Forerunners of American Fascism, will speak in Goodhart Hall, next Wednesday evening at 8.30, under the auspices of the' Entertainment Comit- tee. The subject of his speech will be Intrigue for World Pouter. Having just returned from Europe, Mr. Swing will be in the position to give those interested first hand in- formation about the European crisis. In past years he has gained a large following in England as well as in the United States for his interpreta- tion of American and European af- fairs. He has received recognition primarily as a radio news commenta- tor, but he has also given lectures for sucli groups as The Herald Tribune Forum and The Town Meeting, of the Air. Mr. Swing will spend Wednesday night on campus and will be on hand for discussion Thursday morning. A recording will be made of his voice. The admission fees for the lecture, while not as yet definitely set, will he soon announced. New French House in Wyndham Boasts' Apple Trees, Piano and Reference Library .' *�� Last year, when undergraduates were told of the projected French and German houses, their approach was characteristic, that is, suspicious. Al- though the French House quota was nine and the German House, seven, theV were hard to fill. The Good Old Halls'and Good Old Friends took on -an aura that made them seem too precious to leave, and pessimists painted realistic pictures of treks across snowy hockey fields to classes. Nonetheless the respective depart- ments and a strong sense of duty among language majors brought pres- sure to bear and enough people, mostly majors and their martyred roommates, signed up to make the pro- ject possible. Almost as soon as they hadjnoved in, the inmates began to circulate cheery reports about the pleasantness of wardens, the excellence of food, and the laxness of rules dealing with breakfast and quiet hours. In spite of these bulletins,'most of the people signed up for second semester in the French House dropped outsat the crucial moment. As the year wore on, however, campus enthusiasm soared and French House inmates desponded because they knew that the Dean would want her house back. At length it was announced that the French House for the coming year would be Wyndham. Wyndham holds seventeen peopre� and not only were those seventeen easily found, but also over seventeen more, who are waiting eagerly for their turn during the second semester. Though Wyndham lacks some of the surprising elements of Mrs. Man- ning's house, it is undisputably the most attractive hall on campus and has particular advantages: a large garden with three apple trees that b*ar, a piano and a good library do- nated by the French government. Mademoiselle Bree is still in charge, with Katharine Bill, '35, as her as- sistant- >V In many ways the Wyndham French House is a modified version of the original. But if one can no longer wheedle Mary, who is cooking once again for the Mannings, into produc- ing an eleven o'clock breakfast, one has on the other hand priceless refer- ence books on the premises; and al- though Wyndhamites cannot look forward to Mrs. Manning's crocuses in the spring, they have the Diezes in their back yard.

Miller PREDICTS CZECH RISE In an interview on the European situation, Mr. Herbert A. Miller, lecturer in Social Economy, said he was convinced that Hitler's desire for territory would not be appeased until he had extended his boundaries across Europe to the oil fields of Rumania and the Ukraine. However, like- Na- poleon's empire, he feels the Nazi rule will fall rapidly because of Hitler's inability to integrate the lands and the peoples once he possesses them. The chief outstanding result of the Munich agreement is that Germany has actually become the victor of/lhe Great War and will iiBpuaii M luth- less conditions today as if she had won it in 1918. Almost overnight the importance of England and France in the balance of power has been re- duced to a minimum and Germany will probably have her way with both countries. Germany has further increased her strength and conversely weakened that of France by moving thirty divisions of troops from the Czechoslovak up to the French border. From Hitler's speeches it is obvtoua. that he is under the illusion that the Germans are a race of superjnen who ought to rule the world. His present goal, Mr. Miller believes, is Rumania; it was a desire for a path to this country and for the resources of Czechoslovakia rather than any moral struggle for the rights of Germans that led him into the Sudeton. It is perfectly possible that he will attain his ends in Rumania quickly, but this is not an event to be deplored: Mr. Miller feels that it would even be Continued on Page Two Geologist to Study "Piedmont Province' Miss Anna Hietanen Will Help Watson and Wyckoff Study Rock Crystals The research activities of the ge- ology department are devoted this year, to the problem of the history of the crystalline rocks of the local Piedmont region. The college has given cxtj^-aid, in the form of grants and special scholarships, towards a vigorous and systematic study of this controversial -question. v Miss Wyckoff and Mr. Watson, of the geology department, are directing a symposium of graduates tn .this field. Miss Bascom, professor emeri- tus of geology, and Miss Hietanen, from Helsinki, Finland, will join in the work. The "Piedmont province" extends along the Atlantic seaboard east of the Appalachians, from New England to Georgia. The rock in this region has gone through tremendous altera- tions, having beenburied, compressed, remelted and recrystallized in differ- ent eras. The well-kept lawns of local residential sections, and the humid climate impede the study of processes which must be observed at consider- able depths and over a large area. The technique of Petrofabrics, de- vised by Bruno Sanders in Inns- bruck, will be used by Miss Hietanen to study the rocks. This method de- termines the direction of the axes of the individual crystals in a rock sample. From this polarization is theoretically deduced the history of the crystal, the crushing, folding and shearing to which the region has Continued on Page Two Florence Allen to Give The Anna Shaw Series Rise of Constitutional Powers Topic Of Six Lectures Numerous New . Poems Are Read By Miss Millay Archaic Sonnet Requested by- Enthusiastic Audience As Encore DRAMATIC PROGRAM DISPLAYS VARIETY ALUMNAE TO WITNESS INTERNATIONAL Ni$HT On Saturday night, October 22, at 8.30, the Alumnae will be entertained at an "International Night" held in WyndhanTHall. Only the French and German Clubs were originally in- tended to take part, and Wyndham was chosen as a setting so that the Alumnae would be able to die what the French House was like. > As the idea grew, it seemed a pity not to include graduate students as well; an informal skit which might be named "Impromptu International" resulted. , Cider and eookies will be served after the entertainment. Should it rain Friday evening, Lantern Night will be postponed until Saturday, and International Night will take its place. ; Judge Florence Ellenwood Allen of the United States Circuit Court of Appeals will be the speaker for the Anna Shaw series of lectures entitled the Historical Development of the Constitutional Powers. Although this is her first appearance as a speaker, she will have a far larger audience than the college alone. Students arc coming from the University of Penn- sylvania and from the Temple Uni- versity Law School, while many Out- siders have already asked for the dates of her talks. Judge Allen seemed eager to ac- cept Bryn Mawr's invitation, although her court routine will "prevent her from giving her six lectures in con- secutive weeks. She will, however, live on campus for a two week period sometime during the winter and thus have a good opportunity to discuss her particular field with the students. The Anna Howard Shaw fund was established in memory of Dr. Shaw of Bryn Mawr (1928). It provides for a series of six lectures to be given every three years, the speaker to be, preferably, a woman eminent in poli- tics, social science or any other field of scholarship. . . #. The individual titles for this year's series-are as follows: The Constitution, an Instrument for 'Freedom (October 24). Separation of the Governmental Powers (November 21). The Bill of Rights (February date to be determined later). Constitution arul Labor (March date to be determined later). � Democracy and the Constitution (March date to be determined later). 'Judge Allen1 did not begin her law practice until 1914. Before this time she had been correspondent to the New York Musical Courier, 1904-'06, and Musical Editor of the Cleveland Plain Dealer, 1906-'08. From 1910 to 1913 she served as a lecturer on music on the New York Board.of Education. - Judge Allen served five years tl921-*26) as judge to the Court of Common Pleas in Cuyahoga County and two terms, 1922-'34, as judge to the Supreme Court of Ohio. Qtibdhart, October 17.�A little over a third of the poems which Edna Saint Vincent Millay read Monday night were new; some had never been published before, some had been pub- lished only in magazines such as Harper's. Miss Millay, apologizing for the number of unknown poems on her prog>am( said: "I hope you don't mind. I'm so much more interested in the new ones myself." The best poem she read, the Archaic Sonnet, was one of these. It begins:- "Dark famished grave I will not fill thee yet," and in it she says that she will die in her own time, only after having lived so full a life that there will be little of her left to give the grave. Miss Millay has a rich rather poig- nant voice, and she read with rhyth- mical and emotional emphasis. Un- fortunately most people in the second' section of seats could hear little more | than the kind of song her voice mi-' of the poems. She enunciated clearly �her diction is beautiful�but there lurks in Goodhart a faintly slurring echo which makes speech intelligible, to the back row well nigh impossible. Whether people like Miss Millay's delivery of her own poetry or not, they must unanimously agree that she is a good actress, and that as an ac- tress she reads her poems. She uses gestures, yery restrainedly, and can make her voice do anything she pleases. It would be impossible to evaluate a poem one has merely heard her read, for she can give depth and poetry to verse that has little of either. I think she did essentially that once or twice last night. "Now that the West is washed of clouds and clear," is the poem I have in mind. Her reading is undeniably creative� as she read -In a Fine Country and similar delicate little poems, she man- aged to show the significance of slight poems; that is, she showed them as real things in their own right. A great many of the poems Miss ' Millay read�she read 27 in . all� were poems that dealt in some way with childhood. Childhood is the Kingdom Where Nobody Dies, from Wine From These Grapes, was the first of these; there followed the Ballad of Charting Down, Come Along in Then, Little Girl, I Know a Continued on Pace Four Sources of College Information Listed Goodhart, October IS.�Speaking on Questions and Answers, Miss Park devoted her second chapel of the year to explaining how students "can ob- tain accurate information about the college in the quickest way." They should not try to obtain it, in the first place, either from members of the faculty or from other students, both of whom are sometimes new to the college and uninformed. She then went on to describe the four" official sources of information. First and most important are the hall wardens. As a group, they are particularly fitted to give advice or Jo refer thdl student to the right person. Secondly, the College News is the general source of all college informa- tion. It is inclusive, carefully checked, and regulated by a committee which meets every Monday morning to de- termine what news shall be given out that week. This committee includes the Editor of the News, the Editor of the Alumnae Bulletin, Miss Park, Mrs. Chadwick-Collins, Miss Howe and Miss Barbara Cary. Continued on Page Thre�

Analyst: Mobile Cloud Computing to rake in $5.2B by 2015
As smartphones become more sophisticated and wireless connections become faster, mobile cloud computing services are beginning to penetrate the enterprise at a fantastic clip. ABI Research estimates enterprise cloud services will become in 2015 a $5.2 billion market globally for mobile operators and IT services companies.
"The immediate opportunity lies in leveraging cloud platforms to develop mobile applications, particularly mobile applications that leverage enterprise data," ABI practice director Dan Shey said�in a statement.�"Directly and indirectly, Microsoft and Google are major players both influencing and enabling these developments. Mobile operators have the most to gain through offers of cloud services to the enterprise leveraging their networks, application enablement, and data centers."
Smartphones and�connected laptops�are main the drivers of�mobile cloud computing services�today, but Shey said that new devices–many of which are targeted for 4G networks–such as mobile Internet devices (MIDs), netbooks and smartbooks will further expand the use of cloud services.

One of only four sites in U.S. to treat neurological disorder
SEATTLE, Sept. 26, 2013 – Swedish Neuroscience Institute (SNI) is looking for patients willing to participate in a study of an investigational technology to treat essential tremor, a common neurological disorder, with sound rather than surgery.
An estimated 10 million people in the U.S have essential tremor (ET), which causes a rhythmic shaking or trembling of hands and arms but can also affect the head, legs and other parts of the body. It affects one out of every 25 adults over 40 and can be confused with but is different from better-known Parkinson's disease, which is actually much less prevalent. ET produces disabilities that hamper basic daily activities and worsens over time, with severely affected patients unable to feed or care for themselves.
Dr. Ryder Gwinn, the Principle Investigator for the study at SNI who has utilized other treatments for patients with essential tremor, said focused ultrasound could be an option for many of these patients. For example, medication has been shown to be ineffective for up to half of all ET patients.

Cryoglobulins are abnormal proteins. This article describes the blood test used to check for them.
In the laboratory, cryoglobulins come out of blood and form crystals when the blood sample is cooled below 98.6 degrees Fahrenheit (37 degrees Celsius).
Cryoglobulins come in three main types, but in 90% of cases the cause is hepatitis C . The disease in which cryoglobulins are found is called cryoglobulinemia .
Blood is typically drawn from a vein, usually from the inside of the elbow or the back of the hand. The site is cleaned with germ-killing medicine (antiseptic). The health care provider wraps an elastic band around the upper arm to apply pressure to the area and make the vein swell with blood.
Next, the health care provider gently inserts a needle into the vein. The blood collects into an airtight vial or tube attached to the needle. The elastic band is removed from your arm.
Once the blood has been collected, the needle is removed, and the puncture site is covered to stop any bleeding.
In infants or young children, a sharp tool called a lancet may be used to puncture the skin and make it bleed. The blood collects into a small glass tube called a pipette, or onto a slide or test strip. A bandage may be placed over the area if there is any bleeding.
Because they are temperature sensitive, cryoglobulins are very hard to accurately detect. The blood specimen must be collected in a special way and the test should only be done in laboratories that are equipped for it.
There is no special preparation for this test.
Some people feel discomfort when the needle is inserted. Afterward, there may be some throbbing.
This test is most often done when a person has symptoms of a condition associated with cryoglobulins. Cryoglobulins are associated with cryoglobulinemia. They also occur in other conditions that affect the skin, joints, kidneys, and nervous system.
Normally, there are no cryoglobulins.
Note: Normal value ranges may vary slightly among different laboratories. Talk to your doctor about the meaning of your specific test results.
The example above shows the common measurement for results for these tests. Some laboratories use different measurements or may test different specimens.
A positive test may indicate:
Additional conditions under which the test may be performed:
Veins and arteries vary in size from one patient to another and from one side of the body to the other. Obtaining blood from some people may be more difficult than from others.
Other risks associated with having blood drawn are slight, but may include:

The Four Choirs of the Vienna Boys Choir
Today the Vienna Boys Choir boasts around 100 active choristers divided up into four different choirs. The four choirs enjoy equal status, though they all have different duties: tours, performances at the Imperial Chapel, concerts and appearances in Vienna and throughout Austria, audio and film recordings, special projects. Each choir has its own choir director and a team of teachers. Brothers get to sing in the same choir.
The choirs are named after four composers with close ties to the history of the Vienna Boys Choir: Anton Bruckner, Joseph Haydn, Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart and Franz Schubert.
