MillDollQuick - How Can I Make a Million Dollars Quickly?
Be honest – haven't you asked this question to yourself at least once, more likely many times?
As popular this question might be, this is still one question for which there's more noise than sense in most answers. Most of us would have come across so-called gurus who promise that their 50 $ book containing "powerful secrets" will make you a millionaire many times over within a year. All we know is that we have not really met a single person who has been able to make a million dollars with the help of those "powerful ideas". Under such circumstances, we are forced to look for answers elsewhere. Thus starts this journey to find the answer to the question "How do I make a million dollars quickly?"
During our researches of case studies and fundamental principles for making a million dollars quickly, there was one common strain we found in almost all examples: Making a million dollars quickly almost always required a good amount of hard work and smart work. You might be the lucky guy who found a 100-carat diamond on your ranch, or the next PowerBall winner, but outside of these miraculous happenings, what is said earlier in the paragraph will hold good.
Get the two words etched in your mind – hard and smart. You need both in order make a million dollars quickly (say within 3-4 years), possibly starting from scratch and having only minimal resources. Hard work alone could make you a millionaire – but it will likely take very long. Smart work alone could make you a millionaire quickly – but you will need a good dose of luck without hard work. If your effort has both the hard and smart components, the likelihood of your making a million $ quickly increases tremendously.
So remember the formula folks: Hard + Smart = Rich + Quick.
No surprises there.
With this fundamental principle ( hard+smart = rich+quick) in mind, this section looks at making a million dollars quickly from two streams:
The focus of this section is primarily on the first avenue - starting and succeeding quickly in a business - and the second stream is discussed at length in other sections of Billion Dollar Questions.
We have also provided resources & references for making a million dollars quickly from timely and smart ideas (which need not exactly be formal business ideas), as well resources for high paying careers – after all, it does not hurt if you become a millionaire by drawing a salary, does it? In our opinion however, the chances of an average Joe making a million dollars in 3-4 years from very super-smart ideas or from very high paying careers are low, but yes, the opportunities exist.
MillDollQuick - Making a Million Dollars by Starting the Right Business & Doing the Right Things
Except for the sheikhs of the middle east, most of the top 100 billionaires in the world made it there by starting and making their business successful – or their dads or grand-dads had gotten there the same way and these lucky folks simply inherited the fortunes. (See the list of billionaires for 2006 here). There are a few exceptions to these: Steve Ballmer, CEO of Microsoft is in the top 100 and he did not start a business, for instance (though he has been with Microsoft for a long time). But overall, most of the non-sheikh very rich guys got there by starting a business.
Let's talk about a million dollars- and not billions - because a million $ is how much we wish to have in our bank account. In the case of millionaires, you will find that quite a few of them made a million through salaries - by working for others. If you are an MBA from an Ivy League school, a top-notch programmer, a doctor in great demand, an engineer at a blue chip firm, or a top-class lawyer at a big law firm, and you have managed your investments and expenses wisely there is a reasonable chance you can have a million dollars in your bank account within the first ten years of your work. But within 3-4 years? Unlikely, unless you are in a pretty senior position in your job already, or a really lucky computer whiz kid.
There is of course one another profession where people make a million dollars quickly – the show biz profession which today can be considered to include books, films, music and sports. But as we all know, making it big in these professions is not easy unless you are truly gifted with talent or looks.
We are not ruling out the possibility of someone making a million dollars in 3-4 years from employment. We are only saying such cases are rare and are rather the exceptions than the rule. We have provided a list of professions that has high pay packets is provided at the Reference section
For the rest of us, who are not celebrities, who cannot count on our educational degrees, computer programming skills or being employed in one of those niche high paying professions, the best chance of making a million dollars quickly comes from starting a business and succeeding in it. Continue buying your lottery tickets by all means, but don't count on them!
This section will hence analyse what it takes to make good money in business quickly.

The two step process to making a million dollars quickly from your business
Before we derive the two steps that have the potential to lead you to quick business success, let's look at a key dimension that facilitates quick business success – Attractive Unique Niches.
If the term Attractive Unique Niches sounds sophisticated to you, you can look at it this way: You wish to achieve something extra-ordinary (making a million dollars quickly, say in 3-4 years, starting from scratch). It follows that you need to do something extra-ordinary to achieve that. You will have no qualms accepting this logic. The question however, is, what is the extra-ordinary thing you should do?
Extra-ordinary does not mean fantastic, it just means out of the ordinary. The "extra-ordinary" business idea you need to figure out is something that can (a) add high value and hence has excellent monetary potential, (b) is different from the "ordinary" that exist already (unique), and (c) is a niche area as against a very broad opportunity. This combination of high-value (to the customer as well as to you), uniqueness & niche focus facilitates any business to scale fast and make a million dollars profit in a short period of time. Let's call this combination the attractive (high-value) unique (different) niche (narrow focus).
The two-step solution for making a million dollars in quick time boils down to the following:
(a) Identifying an attractive unique niche
(b) Exploiting it by spending all your energies on this niche.
We'll spend the next few sections on expanding on each of the above.
MillDollQuick - Identifying An Attractive Super-niche
You might be surprised we have mentioned a new term "super-niche" instead of niche. We will soon explain that.
Identifying Niches
Every one who starts a business wishes to cater to a largest number of people possible, right away, with a product that can do many, many things. But this is the worst possible strategy for any business just starting off and is short on resources.
The best way to tap into the potential of a market is to narrow your focus to one or two very specific niches within a target market group.
Most buyers out there, when given the choice, would rather hire someone who has specific expertise and emphasis on their type of business or need. When you become the preferred choice, or when you start to get calls from companies whose market you excel in, price is no longer the driving issue, at least not the only driving issue.
When you are in a niche, your competition is relatively less, you get talked about soon and thus your customers will likely market for you for free, and you can get higher margins / profits on your products. True, operating in niche markets does not sound as glamorous as operating in global markets with hundreds of offices and thousands of salesmen, but this unglamorous but extremely powerful method is the key to small business success.
Are you being smart? – Think back on what your strengths are. Try to recall what people usually credited you with. Is it your ability to talk and sell anything, or your ability to write well, or your skills at technology & gadgets? An idea of your strengths could enable you to identify a suitable niche quicker.
Looking for Niches
Before you even start looking for a niche, develop a mindset and an attitude that constantly look for niches. Keep reminding yourself when you review any idea that you have to evaluate if it passes the "Niche Test".
So, where does one look for niches?
Existing Client Base – If you are already operating a business, take a look at your current client base. Where do your revenues come from now? Don't forget the 80/20 rule. Do 80% of your profits come from one or two services or products? In some cases it can simply be a matter of focusing on your existing client bases but repositioning the way you add value to these client bases!
Centers of Influence - Where do you have a large number of contacts? Your church, your religion, your school, a hobby, an Association, a part of town? Perhaps there is an attractive idea lurking in these places! Talk to your contact in these places where you have influence. Try finding out if there are unsolved problems / needs that you can relate to and find a solution for.
Competition - Sometimes niches present themselves by way of what your competitors are doing – or not doing. You can identify a niche by observing a competitor being successful in that niche, or by identifying gaps that your competitor is not serving. (see McKinsey Quarterly for regular industry-wise strategy updates)
Internet Search Words - One of the ways to hunt for potential niches is find out what people are searching for on the Internet. One of the sites you can use in this regard is a service called Overture, part of Yahoo today, or you can use keyword databases from ad services such as Google AdSense. Similar to Google AdSense, Overture is a pay-per-click web advertising service (in fact Overture pioneered it and it was later imitated by Google) but for "niche hunting" they offer a tool that allows you to type in a keyword, such as software training, and see how many people have searched on that and related terms in the last month. The Overture Keyword Suggestion Tool can be found @ http://inventory.overture.com/d/searchinventory/suggestion/.
Read Business Newspapers, preferably 2-3 Everyday – However plain such an idea sounds, it has enormous potential. As mentioned earlier, a new idea need not be entirely new in the context of achieving success. It can be an old or existing idea applied to a new market. Business newspapers and periodicals have enough information everyday about how many businesses are achieving success all over the world. It costs little or perhaps nothing to lay your hands on these treasure troves. Why would you not do it?
Read Relevant Web Sites & Blogs Regularly – This point implies pretty much the same as what the earlier one does. Just one small note. Place special emphasis on blogs and read the blogs you select regularly. They are powerful vehicles for ideas. See a list of useful blogs we have listed in the reference section below.
Read/watch news & media sources that provide regular inputs on current and future trends - These could either be specific sections of your newspaper or your popular web portal, or specific TV programmes, or could even be those special friends who have a nose for what is going to be big in future. A list of online resources providing business & opportunity trends are listed in the Reference section below.
Identifying niches using the "Method of Categories" – This is a rather straight-forward, though possibly a long-winded method, useful for those who do not have a specific niche target segment or a short list of target segments in mind while starting the identification and further exploration of niche segments. To use this method, you need to have a broad idea of the domain or market you wish to operate in. Let's say you have decided, based on empirical data and personal insights, that you wish to start a business in the software industry. We all know that the software industry is an ocean, and there are hundreds – if not thousands - of niche segments possible within this broad domain. So how do you go about arriving at a short-list of niche domains that you can further assess?
Using the "Method of Categories", you try to divide/classify the software industry into further sub-divisions. You do this exercise not in your mind, as most of us try to do when asked for a list of sub-divisions, but you allocate a good number of hours (for something like software, this could be 25-30 hours) for doing this segmentation on paper. For the software industry, the first level of sub-divisions would go something like: (a) Operating Systems, (b) Software Applications, (c) Databases, (d) Programming & Development, (e) Internet & Web Software, (f) Mainframe & Legacy Software, (g) Consulting & Support. While ideally you should strive for a mutually exclusive and cumulatively exhaustive list of categories, don't be too harsh on yourself in this regard, and arrive at a first-level list that is fairly comprehensive and in which each division is quite distinct from the others. Now take each of the elements in the first level (Operating Systems, Software Applications etc) and divide each of these further in the same manner. You might want to do one further level of sub-categorisation after this to have arrived at a good number of niche segments. Your list will look something like this at the end of this exercise, and could comprise over 250 categories – if you wish to be more meticulous, you might have over 500 categories by end of this exercise.
As mentioned above, do not try to finish off this sub-categorisation exercise in a couple of hours by simply jotting down the most obvious domains that are known to you. Plan this exercise over a period of 10 days and do quick research on the Internet using readily available categories such as those of Yahoo, Open Directory, Business.com. While this exercise would appear rather academic in nature, at the end of the exercise you will be surprised at the number of smaller domains you had not thought of in the final list you arrive at.
Once you have a pretty large list of market segments / categories, eliminate from this list those categories you feel are irrelevant or impossible. Doing this elimination process, consult with relevant friends or industry people if you have doubts about a particular category. Use any existing research material or do additional research using the web during this elimination process. The idea is to have a short list of not more than 25 categories at the end of this elimination. Use this list as a basis for your final choice.
So there you are! It takes a while to arrive at a comprehensive list of niche domains that serves as the starting point for further evaluation and analysis, but most often than not, this is time well spent.
Are you being smart? – Instead of doing all the research work yourself, you might want to pay a bright college kid some pocket money and ask him/her to do the data collection work while you spend your time more usefully on analyzing the data
After you have identified a short list of niche domains…
The niche and the super-niche…
What you have right now is a list of niches. Your next step should be to identify super-niches.
A super-niche can be defined as a niche within a niche. If you think a niche has narrow focus, a super-niche has a narrower focus.
It is ideal if you could start your business in a super-niche, rather than in a niche. Super-niches afford the best chance for a small business to succeed fast, primarily owing to its extremely narrow focus which will enable the entrepreneur to become an expert in that domain.
Super-niches appear to be having limited potential at first sight, and they probably have only a limited revenue potential if looked at narrowly, but focusing on super-niches provide you with an excellent stepping board for future growth. The equivalent of a super-niche is what Geoffrey Moore, in his widely acclaimed book "Crossing the Chasm," (Crossing the Chasm review @ Wikipedia, Info & order @ Amazon) calls the head-pin. The head-pin, in bowling parlance, is just one pin, but you knock down the head-pin, and the rest follow. In our terms, once you succeed in a super-niche, success in related segments follow. ( a note: though the book mentioned above - Crossing the Chasm - was originally written for marketing high tech products, in our opinion any budding entrepreneur should read it, since there are useful concepts in that book that can be applied to any venture)
There is something else positive and interesting about super-niches: They provide you the environment in which you need to market relatively little and hence spend less, and in some cases much less, than what you would normally spend. The super-niche and niche segment approach makes marketing your product much easier, especially if your product delivers excellent value to this super-niche. The reason? Many of your super-niche customers will most likely be networked with one other in physical or virtual spaces, and if your product solves a critical problem or provides excellent relief to a pain-point, people will talk about it, and some of these others they talk to will likely to the same market and/or product segment. This process repeats, and because you are in a super-niche which is relatively small, the word-of-mouth effect is strong enough to promote your product to a significant segment of the target audience. This means that, beyond the first few dollars you spend in marketing to the super-niche, you will likely need to spend relatively little after that while word-of-mouth carries you much farther into that niche. Of course, it does not hurt to employ some viral marketing methods, all the same. (see a good discussion on and resources for viral marketing from this section of BillDoll)
Typical Characteristics of Super-niches
Some examples of niches and super-niches are provided below, to clarify the difference between a niche and a super-niche.
Examples of Niches & Super-niches
Are you being smart? – Think about business successes close to you. Think about the uncle who got rich in a few years, or your wife's friend who sold her company to a giant. What were the niches they were operating in? Do these thoughts give you ideas?
So what's the big picture with the niche and super-niche?
Remember this simple rule: First figure out how to create a hundred dollars while spending much-less (identifying the attractive super-niche), then put in focused efforts to replicate this many times for the super niche (exploiting the super-niche). Once you have succeeded in the super-niche, replicate similar efforts for the niche segments that are adjacent to or are concentric to the super-niche segment you originally chose.
Example: You open an "organic foods only" restaurant in your health-conscious locality – a super-niche because it is a combination of two niches – "organic foods" and "geographical niche – your locality alone". All foodstuff & ingredients that this restaurant serves have been grown organically. This super-niche possibly commands a good premium for which there is little or no competition – thus you have the possibility to make a hundred dollars while spending much less, once the initial capital costs are put in. Once you have started the restaurant, fine-tune each and every aspect of the business over the next few months, so that not only you now the business that generates high profit-margins, you also have the mechanism to replicate it easily. Once you feel you have grown well enough (say, one year after you started operations), you possibly can think of scaling it to adjacent niches. In this case, you might either wish to increase the organic offerings from the restaurant, or you might wish to start a similar restaurant in adjacent health-conscious locales.
Identifying Super-niches
Identifying super-niches might not be as easy as identifying niches (which in itself requires some amount of work). It could require a rigorous, theoretical analysis of the segment, as well as practical observations of the niche market.
One rigorous method to identify super-niches - once you have identified a list of niche domains – is to spend enough time evaluating each of these domains, and digging into further sub-segments of each domain. For example, if you have identified setting up a jewelry shop in your locality as one of your niche domains, try to identify further sub-segments or super-niches – would you wish to offer only diamond jewelry (product segmentation), or would you wish to offer only jewelry for the premium and ultra-premium segment (market segmentation), or would you wish to offer only diamond-jewelry for the premium & ultra-premium segment (an intersection of product and market segmentation).
Another useful method of identifying super-niches would be to read a good number of industry-related trends analysis for the short-listed niches.
Having discussions with industry professionals and end-users of the product or service is yet another useful method to identify any unmet gaps within the niche.
It is highly recommended that you combine the conceptual aspects of research (segment analysis, industry trend report analysis) with the practical aspects (discussions with industry professionals, preparing business prototypes) in order to arrive at a small set of super-niches.
At the end of this exercise, you should ideally have not more than 2-3 super-niches that you can evaluate further.
Are you being smart? – Try describing each of your super-niche product or service offering in a sentence. If you are not able to define your offering in a sentence, you perhaps don't have such a clear idea after all!
Evaluating Super-niches
While there are a number of ways to evaluate the business potential of any business idea, in the context of an entrepreneur with limited amount of resources trying to target a super-niche, the following aspects stand out:
.. Save MillDollQuick to del.icio.us ..
Some useful reading for identifying & evaluating niches & super-niches:
Are you being smart? – Once you have finished your evaluation, invite a group of intelligent friends for lunch and tell them your idea and get their feedback. Who knows, you might have missed something completely that they can point out. You might be completely wrong in your assumptions. Or who knows, one of your friends might even give you a better idea! It is better to find out these in the very beginning.
Based on all the parameters mentioned above for super-niche evaluation, arrive at one super-niche on which you are willing to put in all your efforts.
All right, you now have narrowed down a starting list of niche categories to one super-niche based on further research. While in most cases, a super-niche owing its very characteristics will in itself be quite unique, sometimes you might likely end up in a situation in which the super-niche you have short-listed is not intrinsically unique (for instance, the example mentioned above of a "laptops only retailer for a town" is a super-niche, but there is nothing very unique about it – the perception could be "this is another computer seller"). Such super-niches may fulfill all the other criteria put down above for niches evaluation, but on the uniqueness front, they might be scoring low.
Uniqueness can be defined as "existing as the only one or as the sole example; solitary in type or characteristics". Essentially, uniqueness implies that there is no competition for precisely the same product or service.
Is uniqueness a must, especially for an attractive super-niche for which there is only limited competition? We would consider uniqueness to be a must for any business that wishes to succeed fast. Even if you are in an attractive super-niche, offering something that you alone are offering is a great way to succeed fast – it results in a strong brand identity, in much stronger word-of-mouth, and higher profit margins. So, if your super-niche happens to be one in which some others are offering exactly what you are offering (though they might not be focusing on your super-niche alone), you must spend time to make your offering unique.
Let the nature of uniqueness be such that it magnifies the benefit. Note that we are not talking about cosmetic uniqueness, not the type of uniqueness in which you wrap a funny looking monkey doll on your pizzas and claim you are unique. We are talking about unique value addition. In most cases, such a unique value addition will magnify the key product or service benefits. Consider the following examples of "unique" additions and how they magnify the key business benefits.
Some examples of not-so-unique attractive super-niches and their unique counterparts
So how do you make your attractive super-niche offering unique?
By using some of the methods described below:
Combine Ideas / Aspects / Dimensions / Characteristics – Any good book on creative thinking will tell you that one of the most powerful ways to arrive at new ideas is to combine multiple ideas – preferably from different fields - to form a new and possibly unique idea. Many times, combining two well-known ideas from two different can result in a completely new and workable idea. Let's consider one such combination: One of the rather well-known online ideas today is to launch a blog – millions have done it and continue doing it, so it is a rather common idea. Another well-known fact is that many people have less and less time these days outside of their work-time and offices. So why not start a blog that provides suggestions, examples and case studies of how people can have "more" personal time, or how to use their scarce personal time more memorably? Perhaps such a theme is already discussed in some blogs, or perhaps no blog is dedicated to this rather important topic…in which case you have a unique and useful idea, made out of two rather common and well-known concepts/ideas!
Substitute a small part of an existing idea with a different element – eg., instead of ice cream, perhaps you can think of selling ice-liquid – the liquid form of the cream? Haven't you seen many times people actually enjoying drinking the liquid part of an ice cream that had melted and flown into the cup?
Adapt an old idea to a new market – eg., "take agriculture home" – perhaps you can conduct classes for your neighborhood on how to utilize their gardens more productively, and sell gardening equipment, books and other supporting products?
Magnify - Design a new product/concept/service by magnifying a benefit in an existing product – eg., how about designing watches that can "speak the time" at pre-specified intervals?
Reverse – fully or partially - an existing concept to arrive at a new idea – eg., instead of selling books to users, why not buy books from users – and thereby start a "used-books" seller service? Not a new idea for sure, but this indicates how reversing a useful idea can result in another useful idea.
Eliminate a part of an existing product/service to arrive at a new product or service – eg., if you review the history of low-cost airlines, you will realize "elimination" was the concept used to arrive at the low-cost carrier concept – eliminate all the "non-core" and fringe airline offerings, and what do you have but a low-cost airline!
Re-arrange parts of an existing product/service to arrive at a new product or service – eg., in almost all mobile phones we see the display/screen on top and the keyboard at the bottom. Can you reverse it and have the keyboard on top and the display at the bottom? Does it increase aesthetics? Does it make it easier for people to use the keyboards? Does it look more "cool"?
(The above framework is derived from Michael Michalko's "Substitute – Combine – Adapt – Magnify – Modify – Put to Other Uses – Reverse – Re-arrange" or SCAMMPERR creative thinking framework – See Michael Michalko's web site)
The above examples are not necessarily "million dollar" examples; neither does every example represent a superior idea; but the examples show how a little "lateral" thinking enables us to come up with a number of possibilities in just a few minutes.
So! You now have been able to identify an attractive super-niche and you have made it unique. What next?

Exploiting a Super Niche & the Subsequent Niches
Exploiting a super niche is equally important to, or more important than identifying one. If you are convinced that you are on to a good super niche, please keep in mind that your single largest enemy from thereon until you hit your first success will be focus, rather the lack of it.
Simply put, an entrepreneur sees opportunity everywhere. This trait is his biggest strength – and his biggest weakness!
A small business has far fewer resources than its large competitors. Even if you are in a super niche where there is little or no competition, remember that there is still competition – and that competitor is called time. You have only a limited amount of time to reach the goal, and if you don't reach it, time wins.
It is thus imperative that once you have identified a super niche and have done a bit of prototyping and trial marketing to figure out if the super niche is actually attractive, you focus ALL your energies on that super niche.
Succeeding in all Business Components of a Super-niche
Any business has the following components, and so will your business, even if focused on a super-niche. Even if your business is being run from your home, with you being the sole employee, all the following components are present in some form:
While you are exploiting the niche or super-niche, make sure that you design each and every one of the above components to be as efficient as possible. With few resources at your disposal, unless you run a tight ship, it is most likely the ship will sink. How do you make sure each of the above business components in run as efficiently as possible?
And efficiency alone is not enough. Be creative in each and every one of the business aspects - we appreciate that is easier said than done. Which is why we provide some thoughts on creativity for each of the business aspects.
Key Success Factors for a Super-niche
While you need to run a tight and creative ship by following all the above points mentioned, it will help your business growth enormously if you could identify the key success factor or factors that drive the growth in your niche segment. Considering the earlier example of a successful organic foods only restaurant business opportunity, it helps to identify what were the key drivers for success (note the word key)? Was it just the concept alone, was it the locality, was it the way the concept was marketed, was it any specific association or tie-up that the business had. It is critical that the key success factors are identified because extra resources can then be spent on these to enable even faster business growth.
Examples of key success factors (KSF):
How can one identify key success factors?
It is recommended that you spend time to identify the key success factor or factors. It might take a couple of months after you start before you are able to do this, but make sure you have this at the back of your mind while observing your daily business proceedings.
Once you have identified key success factors, ensure that you invest enough time, effort and money to make this key business driver accelerate your business even faster.
What if you had chosen a wrong super-niche?
It is likely that even after all the time and efforts you had put into selecting a super-niche, you might it find it to be much less attractive than what you thought. We would reckon, one in ten times, such a situation could happen. What should you do then?
First, be sure that poor performance of the niche is not owing to your lack of efforts or focus. Secondly, make sure you had been in the market for enough time to make a decision – we'd reckon a minimum of 3-4 months of operations will be required before you can form any sort of credible opinions. Third, make sure that you have done your analysis correctly while trying to evaluate the performance. For instance, if you are evaluating the financial performance of your business three months from the time you started, make sure you are applying the right parameters and benchmarks to measure the financial performance – and please remember, even in a super-niche, you need some time before the business can start accelerating at a very fast clip.
If you are convinced that your super-niche is not attractive enough even after all the above riders have been taken into account, should you be worried? Not much, for the following reasons: (1) The amount of time and money you had invested was not huge, owing to the very nature of a super-niche, (2) You can still go back to your final short-list right away and see if there are other super-niches you can start targeting, and (3) your first few months in the super-niche would have given you useful insights about the market / domain you are operating in, which you can use to plan your further business activities.
For our further discussions, we will assume that the worst case scenario – of your choosing a very unattractive super-niche – has not happened, and that you have been able to succeed in your super-niche.

Succeeding in Subsequent Niches
This is the easier part. Once you have been able to dominate a super-niche and your business is generating good profits, you have quite a few handy assets with you to decide your growth strategies:
Use the above three assets to succeed in the subsequent niches. The key issue is identifying these niches, which will likely be much less difficult that identifying the super-niche. With regard to implementation, you will have to operate with pretty much with the same underlying principles as you did for the super-niche. The only significant difference could be that you might have to have a larger marketing/advertising and sales budget, as word-of-mouth is less likely to play as crucial a role in a niche than it did in a super-niche.
Are you being smart? – When you have succeeded in your super-niche, start scouting the market to see if there are bigger players who might wish to acquire you. Who knows, they might be willing to pay you a million dollars right away for your business.

So there! We now have the basic ingredients using which one can make a million dollars quickly in a business.
To summarise our discussion on making a million dollars quickly by starting a business:
Step 1: Identify, evaluate and decide on a unique, attractive super-niche
Step 2: Spend all your energy in exploiting and succeeding in this super-niche. Subsequently, extend your success in the super-niche to subsequent & related niches
It is worth looking back at two words we mentioned before we started this discussion on starting a business – hard and smart (work). If you look at the two steps and review what we have detailed for each of the two, you will see that the execution for each of these combine both the smart and hard components. It is also easy to see being smart dominates Step 1 (using your brains to identifying the best niche), and hard work dominates Step 2 (focusing on an attractive opportunity and executing it damn well).
A few other important points to keep in mind when starting a business:
Example of a unique need: IdleAire Technologies - One of the most dramatic and significant business success stories in recent years is provided by IdleAire Technologies Inc, an entrepreneurial business located in Chattanooga, Tennessee. IdleAire succeeded by addressing and solving a major environmental problem. Over a million long-haul trucks operate in America and waste billions of gallons of diesel fuel each year when drivers stop to rest and leave their engine idling. To eliminate this problem, IdleAire installs individual heat and air units above parking spaces at truck stops. These units allow drivers to turn off their engines and adjust temperatures as needed. They get a safer, quieter sleeping environment. Truck owners benefit too. They save as much as 40 percent over the cost of fuel that otherwise would have been consumed. Use of IdleAire technology also saves wear and tear on their engines. This need was waiting to be fulfilled, wouldn't you agree? Read more about IdleAire from here
Riding a wave in an intelligent and calculated way is one of the easiest ways to make big bucks fast. You still need to work, but possibly you need to work much smarter than harder.
We have provided later in this page an ever-expanding list of "current waves" that you can refer to.
The above-mentioned points can be considered as traits needed to succeed in a business. Combine these traits with the two-step "Attractive Super-Niches" strategy, and voila, you have a powerful engine to make a million dollars in quick time.
Thus we come to end of the section on: Making a Million Dollars by Starting the Right Business & Doing the Right Things
There is an additional benefit if you succeed in business. While you might have started the business to make a million dollars, who knows, by the time you have made your million, you could have built an attractive business that can grow much bigger and fetch you profits far higher than a million $.
We hope that this section has at least been able to facilitate your thinking process on how to succeed in making a million dollars quickly from your business. All the best with your efforts.
Well, one last note: Once you have made your million using the details provided above, don't forget to send us a cheque as a token of your appreciation J

For this reason, we are also providing a few other "smart" ideas that can get you there.
The ideas below may not be applicable to everyone either, and these are not robust as the detailed "Attractive Unique Niches" idea provided earlier, but what the heck, if you are able to benefit from these, why not!
Other Ways to Make a Million Dollars Quickly
Of course there are other ways to make a million dollars quickly. Avenues such as stock markets, real estate markets etc., are quite well-known.

Tea For Two (10 photos)
Sign In or Register Now
We held this Baby Celebration after the mother had already had her baby, so we wanted to make them both the guests of honor by titling this party, "Tea For Two". Our mother guest, had always wanted a tea party with cakes and cookies and pretty cups, so we did just that. In the invitation we asked that the guests bring their own tea cup, which turned out to be a wonderful idea. At one point in the party, we had those who wanted to share, share why their cup was so special to them or if it had a story behind it. There were some fabulous stories told about their tea cup.
We also asked ladies to volunteer to bring cookies, so we weren't left with making all the cookies and cakes. We made the cake and cupcakes and added chocolate clay polka dots, flowers and the tea cup to tie it into the tea set that we bought for on the diaper cake.
The centerpieces on the tables were fresh picked flowers from our garden in jelly jars. We also dipped spoons in honey for the ladies to use in their tea. Those turned out to be a lovely idea that the ladies loved! And don't forget the bar full of tea! We had many selections of teas from fruity to herbal.
And at the end, with so many cookies left over, we had paper plates and baggies for the ladies to go through the cookie table and fill a plate with cookies to take home. Made a great party favor!

Self Storage for Students in College Can Reduce the Stresses of Finals Week
guest blog by Tyler Wolfe
Every college student has that one time of year that seems distant, but can sneak up and cause a great deal of trouble. Whether it's a professor/parent filling you with fear about finals or a hall director/landlord constantly reminding you that your upcoming move out day is non-negotiable, the last few weeks of second semester are, to put it lightly, stressful.
Having only just finished my freshman year at TCU, I recently experienced this myself for the first time. However, in late May I was also able to see my fellow freshmen try to push through these final weeks using some frighteningly common strategies for moving.
Like me, my three other roommates were out of state residents. We battled the same tremendous problem of moving everything out of the dorm room while still having to study for the ever-important final exams. Each one of us decided to handle moving out a little differently.
Roommate 1- Perhaps the roommate with the strongest foresight out of the bunch. He started boxing his things early on the last week of school. This roommate managed to cram 8 out of 10 cardboard boxes in his pickup truck, only leaving a couple filled boxes for the already half full dumpster outside the freshman dorm. For kids with cars, this is the typical way of dealing with the move out process.
Roommate 2 – Rather than worry about organization like a lot of freshman students, this roommate of mine came up with the brilliant idea of buying a few of the large boxes and proceeding to dump ( I do mean dump) all of his belongings into the boxes. He then proceeded to ship all he could fit in three weight-limit rivaling boxes back home to Arizona. Now, I'm not sure how large the bill was for this extraordinary feat of shipping prowess, but I do know his mother's reaction after opening these bottomless 60 pound boxes must have been a few steps short of proud.
Roommate 3 – This strategy for handling the move out process is in the running for one of the strangest things I saw during my first year. My poor roommate has a special talent for extreme procrastination that was at its peak during these last few weeks of school. After finishing the last of our finals, our room's move out day was upon us. The other three of us had almost finished packing and my 3rd roommate, as expected, hadn't yet started! Hopelessly unprepared for the Hall Director's final sweep of our room, he came up with the idea of collecting 50 gallon trash bags and piling ALL of his belongings into them, tossing out whatever wouldn't fit. He placed his school supplies with his dress clothes, his lamp with toiletries….. yeah, you get the idea. It was a disaster! He ended up carpooling back home to California with his full trash bags in tow.
Moving can be stressful, especially when you are a college student new to the experience, which is why I am grateful that my mom flew down to my campus to help me cope with the process. She suggested storing things I wouldn't need until next year in a nearby self storage unit. The packing process was easy and bringing the things that I wouldn't use until next semester back home didn't make sense. So, I decided to take my mom's advice and lock them up in a self storage unit.
Finding a self storage facility near campus was easy. I borrowed a car from a friend and within a couple of hours had moved my belongings into my unit. Now I don't have to worry about lugging my things all the way back to campus in the fall. The availability of climate controlled units is another plus. I am able to keep things in my unit that I would otherwise have to worry about breaking during a distant move; for example, I stored a record player and speaker system that I look forward to using again in my dorm room next semester. Temperature-sensitive items such as these could become warped or go bad in an unregulated unit, but not in an air conditioned one.
Despite my roommates' creativity, the end results speak for themselves; proper planning and care are both important when managing your belongings before a big move. Whether you are a parent of a college student or a student anticipating the end of a semester, I suggest looking into self storage. Keeping your things in a local self storage facility will make the whole ordeal a lot less stressful and you can avoid having to resort to the desperate yet comical strategies of my roommates.

Earlier this month we commented on how we felt Google (GOOG) is over-priced and how we wouldn't touch the stock with a pole as long as Bernie Ebber's nose.
Staying on a somewhat related topic we wanted to visit another company that steals headlines very consistently yet baffles us...Martha Stewart Living Omnimedia (MSO).
Within the last year Martha Stewart (the person) has gone to jail, been released from jail, created a new TV show, been under five months of house arrest (which was extended three weeks due to "unspecified" infractions) and has seen her company's stock rise 132% - a whirlwind year to say the least.
We are not here to debate the merits of Martha (the person), personally I have no opinion on Martha, I don't like her nor do I have much reason to dislike her. But the fact of the matter is her company is publicly traded and the question needs to be asked - does MSO's current price make any sense?
Similar to Google (GOOG) for us the answer is a resounding no.
Let's take a look at some recent financials.
When looking at the stock the first thing that has to jump out at you is the fact that the company has not reported a P/E since 2002. Why? Simple, they haven't made any money lately.
Therefore the "E" (earnings per share - EPS) portion of the equation has been '0'. The last time MSO reported a positive EPS was 2002 ($0.15). The current EPS for the trailing twelve months (ttm) has been -$1.15. Quite obviously, a negative EPS is not a great sign. Wait though, it gets worse.
Revenues have declined from $295.1M in 2002 to $181.6M (trailing twelve months), representing a 38.5% decline. Not making money and declining revenues, not exactly two elements we look for when searching for companies to add to our model portfolios.
So why has the stock gone up so much if everything looks so bleak? The reason - improved expectations. Currently Wall Street estimates suggest that MSO will post a loss for the year of $1.20 per share. To accomplish this the company would need to slow down their losses in the second half of the year as they have already posted two quarters of losses totaling $1.03 per share.
Standard & Poor Equity Research estimates suggest that in Q3 MSO will post a loss of $0.22 per share and a gain of $0.04 in Q4. Estimates for 2006 suggest that Martha (the person) will have turned the company around and post an EPS for the year of $0.24 per share. The 2006 estimate comes with some pretty extensive caveats such as 30% growth in publishing revenues and $52 million in revenues from TV.
This would be the first profitable year since 2002.
Let's look back at the historic P/E to help give us an idea of where the company should roughly be trading. The historic P/E (when this metric could be calculated) for the company was around 36 (36.6 in both 2001 and 2002). If the company were to trade around 36 times earnings in 2006 – if analyst expectations of $0.24 come to fruition - the price would roughly be $8.64 (36 x $0.24), less than 1/3 the current price of $26.07. If we assume that the EPS target is met and the company trades in this range ($25) for the next year the forward P/E becomes 104. This is nearly triple Google's current forward P/E and about 7 times the current forward P/E of MSO competitor Meredith (MDP)
The only way that MSO's current price makes any sense is if the future growth prospects turn into revenue generating areas of the business now, and by 'now' we mean 'like tomorrow'.
During the height of MSO when Martha was still an untainted household figure in the U.S. the company grew its EPS once from $0.43 to $0.45, this represented a 4.5% increase in earnings. This is way too low for the current price so let's assume that MSO can grow their earnings at 50% (something few companies could ever sustain) per year until 2011.
In 2011 the EPS would be a healthy $1.83 per share, the P/E assuming its price remains where it is, will be 14.25. Perhaps this is a little low compared to their historic P/E, so let's say that after 5 consecutive years of 50% earnings growth (assuming they first achieve the $0.24 in 2006) they trade at 15x earnings. In five years the stock would sit at $27.45 ($1.83 x 15 = $27.45). That represents a 5.5% price appreciation (in 5 years!) from its current level (at the time of this writing at the Advisor we currently have 4 out of 12 stocks sitting at unrealized gains larger than this 24% level in only 2-6 months, depending on the stock) . This does not even come close to keeping up with the historical average of a broad market indices like the S&P 500.
Another thing to look at is the current valuation of the company in terms of its market capitalization. MSO is currently trading at roughly $1.4B.. With the current market cap if we were to add this company to one of our model portfolios it would have to be placed in the Core Portfolio. This portfolio is comprised of companies with caps over $1 billion. Is this company a potential fit with its improved out look? Not even close.
The reasons why are simple, the basic goal of the Core Portfolio is to invest in companies with a wide margin of safety (something that clearly MSO lacks) and a wide economic moat, or competitive advantage (this is something that they may have, but has yet to be proven and sustainable). With its current valuation (way too high) and the past volatility in the stock – the stock is known for its wild fluctuations – it does not fit the basic criteria of the Core Portfolio.
This is a stock we consider to be highly speculative and an example of a company we would not currently suggest to our members.
Now, please do not take this rant as anything more than it is - a rant about a company we do not like at this price. But do note that right now investors are seriously betting the Martha Stewart the person is going to breathe life into Martha Stewart the company. If you like this bet, buy the stock, if you are still skeptical – like we are - then perhaps this is a good one to avoid at this price.

Crestwood, Marian teams in action
From staff reports
The Marian volleyball and Crestwood field hockey teams will look to move one step closer to a state championship today as they play in the PIAA quarterfinal round of their respective state tournaments.
The Fillies (18-1) will take on District 1 champ Country Day Sacred Heart in the ongoing PIAA Class A Volleyball Tournament. The match will be held at Muhlenberg High School, Reading, starting at 2 p.m.
Earlier this week Marian, the District 11 champion, breezed past previously-unbeaten Dunmore (20-1) in three straight (25-8, 25-10, 25-15) in opening-round play, while Country Day knocked off MaST Community Charter in its tourney opener.
The winner of today's quarterfinal match will move on to play the Williamson-Bishop Carroll winner in Tuesday's semifinal round.
Meanwhile, District 2 champion Crestwood (20-2) will face District 4 titlist Selinsgrove (16-4-2) in the PIAA Class 2A Field Hockey Tournament this morning. The 11 o'clock contest will be played at the Berwick Salem Complex, 500 Line St., in Berwick.
Crestwood reached the quarters by edging Hamburg 1-0 in the opening round. Selinsgrove eliminated Upper Perkiomen 3-2 in its state opener. The Comets and Seals met Sept. 8 in an early-season exhibition, with Crestwood posting a 1-0 victory.
Today's winner moves on to face the survivor of another quarterfinal between Greenwood and Forbes Road in Tuesday's state semifinal round.

An artisan Anderson Valley winegrower producing exclusively Pinot Noir from Boon Ridge Vineyard. Situated at 1,300-2,000 feet above Boonville, the vineyard is a patchwork of small blocks planted to seven different Pinot Noir clones. Decomposed sandstone provides superb drainage while naturally restricting vine vigor and yields. The key blocks are planted to Dijon clones 667 and 777 and Pommard 5 clone.
The Boon Ridge Vineyard was formerly part of the Edmeades Winery and had not been developed for years. It was planted to Pinot Noir in 2006.
Winemaker Eric Johannsen has over a decade of experience in Pinot Noir winemaking in California including stints at Cuvaison, Williams Selyem and La Crema. He crafts the wine in Windsor, CA.
The wine is sold through a mailing list with limited retail distribution. The 2010 vintage yielded 3,200 cases but will double in 2011. A joint tasting room with Edmeades is located in Philo, housed in the original Edmeades winery site which has been closed to the public since 2002.

Live Mesh First because it has all my VS projects
Visual Studio 2008
Epression Suite
Adobe Suite
Word, Excel and Outlook
Live Writer
I will have to try that Brain software, been looking for a mind mapping solution!
Well there are the usual Office and Windows Live candidates that I do too...some of the ones I haven't seen yet are 7zip, Irfanview, and CutePDF.
1. DivX/Xvid codecs
2. WinRAR
3. Flash
4. Office 2007
5. Dreamweaver
6. Silverlight
7. Visual Studio
8. Expression Studio
9. Skype/Messenger
10. Winamp/Media Player Classic
1. Strokeit +custom configs // would be stupid not too, seeing as I use it wherever possible, speeds up my workflow specially for explorer
2. Winrar // using windows default explorer .zip support is *
3. Qttabbar // nothing beats using a shell extension that makes Explorer xTimes more useful and adds FREAKING TABS!
4. Ultramon // Mainly for the extra taskbar although the window manager is useful.. Windows lacking support for enhaced functionality when using multimonitors = piss poor
5. Maxthon classic and v2 // v2 is installed just to get quick access favs/rss feeds before restoring the classic plugins/settings
-Latest flash player, sun java, shockwave, silverlight usually get installed at this point
6. Truelaunchbar +restore default app menu/shortcuts // this is what a quicklaunch bar should be capable of, including all the customization . TLB > noobie looking fat iconed object docks
7. Taskix // improves MS lacking taskbar and adds features that should have been there years ago! *cough- MMB taskbutton closing (mousewheel support coming
8. Zoomplayer(used for auto grabbing +installing all latest codecs ffdshow etc except CoreAVC), XnView>irfan(pictures), KMPlayer>vlc(videos), Winamp+addons+sui skin, 10x >wmp (Music)
9. Ramdisk // actually mainly used for Winamp with user files within install dir not under windoze poorly customizable user profile setup.. keeps the library access superfast.. also I usually put on Firefox portable+shitloads of addons(only reason I even bother have FF on my PC is because of the addons otherwise its just as useless as the a vanilla feature complete IE8beta2 install, it also starts up in a more reasonable time this way)
10. Notepad++ // lite and fast +has decent tab support and addons =win
Well thats by no means the full list most used things I install and use but generally those are all the things that get installed first or at least after installing latest whql drivers along with any other bits that always need a pc restart before working, deamon tools SPTD driver, uxtheme patching(gots to have a better looking theme than the ugly default)
"Microsoft Live Onecare" I can't believe someone would actually want to install that useless junk.. out of all Live apps I only use Live Messenger, and the now Mail.. but only because the Outlook connector addon for Office Outlook is the most useless and temperamental scrap ever(heck even doing a search for it, first result takes you to the old MS download page for it, with the 2007 release, pff.. try using that to get your hotmail mail) piss poor addon.. why its even an addon and not directly built into Office Outlook I haven't a clue, but obviously if you want quicker access to live/hotmail accounts using that addon is a waste of time. quick'nfree gmail pop3 ftw
So I don't actually install any of the bigger application that I do use for work until last.. mainly because they take longer to install and I like to get all the most used stuff up'n'ready that way I can at least restore backups, tweak/customize things while those apps install+they usually need updating with newer patches anyway.

Shift Happens
- Artists Love & Light
- Release Date 2014-06-02
- Labels Simplify Recordings
- Catalog SIMP196
- Description The Reno-based duo Love and Light have played countless shows and festivals; taking the stage at such events as Burning Man, Shambhala and Ultra Music Festival. Every show they play guarantees a new experience for the crowd as they become immersed in the sounds and experience that defines Love and Light. Shift Happens is the duo's newest LP. Less an album and more a complete auditory journey, this collection of songs will transport you to the world of Love and Light: a world of both dark sounds and bright melodies; diverse soundscapes and rolling basslines. Love and Light explored the boundaries of their music while writing this album; experimenting with instantaneous elements of silence just as much as sound, these tracks provide a mind altering blend of high and low frequency sounds. From the deep wobbles of Day Won to the Bouncy, disco-esque vibes of Key-O'Metric Saturns, these two musicians have truly flexed their diversity for their newest release. Shift Happens has strained the confines of traditional bass music while in the process redefining the splendor and sensation that can be evoked through the simple medium of electronic music. If there's one thing to be learned from the release of Shift Happens, it's that Love and Light are not slowing down but in fact further perfecting and building upon their craft. There's no telling what the future has in store for these two, but with their innate ability to create rich, head-bobbing compositions it's clear that they're destined for great things!

|Mexican Army soldiers stand at attention, desperately trying to keep a "military bearing" as the intoxicating smoke from a buttload of marijuana being burned billows over them in Ciudad Juarez
Unfortunately, the talks concluded with no reference to the most sensible strategy for reducing that violence: removing marijuana from the criminal market, thus depriving drug cartels of their main source of income and strife.
"The only solution to the current crisis is to tax and regulate marijuana," said Aaron Houston, director of government relations for the Marijuana Policy Project. "Once again, Mexican and U.S. officials are ignoring the fact that the cartels get 70 percent of their profits from marijuana."

|Aaron Houston: "It's time to face the reality that the U.S.'s marijuana prohibition is fueling a bloodbath in Mexico and the United States"
"It's time to face the reality that the United States' marijuana prohibition is fueling a bloodbath in Mexico and the United States," Houston said.
The Obama Administration has said it will provide the Mexican government with $1.4 billion in aid to combat the Mexican drug cartels, in addition to seeking $310 million in its 2011 budget for drug enforcement funds to our southern neighbor.
"It is illogical, at best, to continue throwing money at this failed policy," Houston said. "The government will never eliminate the demand for marijuana, but it can put an end to the monopoly drug cartels currently hold on America's largest cash crop."
"Lifting marijuana prohibition would take away the cartels' largest source of income and the main reason for the horrifically brutal violence perpetrated by rival drug groups," Houston said.
Last year, the Mexican border city Juarez recorded 2,670 murders. Among the growing numbers of voices calling for an end to marijuana prohibition in order to quell the violence are former Mexican presidents Vicente Fox and Ernest Zedillo, as well as the former leaders of Brazil and Colombia.

In clinical trials conducted in the U.S., over 1000 patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus have been treated with GLUMETZA (metformin hcl) 1500– 2000 mg/day in active-controlled and placebo-controlled studies with the 500 mg dosage form.
In the 24-week active-controlled monotherapy trial, serious adverse events were reported in 3.6% (19/528) of the GLUMETZA (metformin hcl) -treated patients compared to 2.9% (5/174) of the patients treated with immediate-release metformin. During the 6-month open-label, uncontrolled, extension trial, an additional 10 (4.0%) GLUMETZA (metformin hcl) -treated patients reported a serious adverse event. In the add-on to sulfonylurea study, a serious adverse event was reported in 2.1% (9/431) of the GLUMETZA (metformin hcl) +glyburide treated patients compared to 1.4% (2/144) of the placebo+glyburide treated patients. When the data from all clinical trials were combined, the most frequently (incidence ≥ 0.5 %) reported serious adverse events classified by system organ class were gastrointestinal disorders (1.0% of GLUMETZA (metformin hcl) -treated patients compared to 0% of patients not treated with GLUMETZA (metformin hcl) ) and cardiac disorders (0.4% of GLUMETZA (metformin hcl) -treated patients compared to 0.5% of patients not treated with GLUMETZA (metformin hcl) ). Only 2 serious adverse events (unstable angina [n=2] and pancreatitis [n=2]) were reported in more than one GLUMETZA (metformin hcl) -treated patient.
In the placebo-controlled study, patients receiving background glyburide (SU; sulfonylurea) therapy were randomized to receive add-on treatment of either one of three different regimens of GLUMETZA (metformin hcl) or placebo. In total, 431 patients received GLUMETZA (metformin hcl) + SU and 144 patients placebo + SU. Adverse events reported in greater than 5% of patients treated with GLUMETZA (metformin hcl) that were more common in the combined GLUMETZA (metformin hcl) + SU group than in the placebo + SU group are shown in Table 5. In 0.7% of patients treated with GLUMETZA (metformin hcl) + SU, diarrhea was responsible for discontinuation of study medication compared to zero in the placebo + SU group.

(Clinical Evaluation of Drug Interactions Conducted with metformin)
The influence of glyburide on GLUMETZA (metformin hcl) pharmacokinetics was assessed in a single-dose interaction study in healthy subjects. Co-administration of a single dose of 500 mg GLUMETZA (metformin hcl) and 5 mg glyburide did not result in any changes in metformin pharmacokinetics as AUC; Cmax as well as Tmax were unchanged. Changes in pharmacodynamics were not evaluated in this study (see DOSAGE AND ADMINISTRATION: Concomitant GLUMETZA (metformin hcl) and Oral Sulfonylurea Therapy).
A single-dose, metformin-furosemide drug interaction study in healthy subjects demonstrated that pharmacokinetic parameters of both compounds were affected by co-administration. Furosemide increased the metformin plasma and blood Cmax by 22% and blood AUC by 15%, without any significant change in metformin renal clearance. When administered with metformin, the Cmax and AUC of furosemide were 31% and 12% smaller, respectively, than when administered alone, and the terminal half-life was decreased by 32%, without any significant change in furosemide renal clearance. No information is available about the interaction of metformin and furosemide when co-administered chronically.
A single-dose, metformin-nifedipine drug interaction study in normal healthy volunteers demonstrated that coadministration of nifedipine increased plasma metformin Cmax and AUC by 20% and 9%, respectively, and increased the amount excreted in the urine. Tmax and half-life were unaffected. Nifedipine appears to enhance the absorption of metformin. Metformin had minimal effects on nifedipine.
Cationic drugs
Cationic drugs (e.g., amiloride, digoxin, morphine, procainamide, quinidine, quinine, ranitidine, triamterene, trimethoprim, or vancomycin) that are eliminated by renal tubular secretion theoretically have the potential for interaction with metformin by competing for common renal tubular transport systems. Such interaction between metformin and oral cimetidine has been observed in normal healthy volunteers in both single-and multiple-dose, metformin-cimetidine drug interaction studies, with a 60% increase in peak metformin plasma and whole blood concentrations and a 40% increase in plasma and whole blood metformin AUC. There was no change in elimination half-life in the single-dose study. Metformin had no effect on cimetidine pharmacokinetics. Although such interactions remain theoretical (except for cimetidine), careful patient monitoring and dose adjustment of GLUMETZA (metformin hcl) and/or the interfering drug is recommended in patients who are taking cationic medications that are excreted via the proximal renal tubular secretory system.
Certain drugs tend to produce hyperglycemia and may lead to loss of glycemic control. These drugs include the thiazides and other diuretics, corticosteroids, phenothiazines, thyroid products, estrogens, oral contraceptives, phenytoin, nicotinic acid, sympathomimetics, calcium channel blocking drugs, and isoniazid. When such drugs are administered to a patient receiving GLUMETZA (metformin hcl) , the patient should be closely observed for loss of blood glucose control. When such drugs are withdrawn from a patient receiving GLUMETZA (metformin hcl) , the patient should be observed closely for hypoglycemia. In healthy volunteers, the pharmacokinetics of metformin and propranolol, and metformin and ibuprofen were not affected when co-administered in single-dose interaction studies. Metformin is negligibly bound to plasma proteins and is, therefore, less likely to interact with highly protein-bound drugs such as salicylates, sulfonamides, chloramphenicol, and probenecid, as compared to the sulfonylureas, which are extensively bound to serum proteins.

Alongside the announcement that Call of Duty: Roads to Victory was now available for the PlayStation Portable, Activision also offered a little something for gamers who think the theater of war should always be shown on a big screen. Along the same lines of last year's Call of Duty 2: Game of the Year, which included a bonus DVD and codes redeemable for extra multiplayer maps on the Xbox 360, Call of Duty 3 GOLD Edition for the Xbox 360 can now be picked up for $59.99. This time, a DVD shows you how Treyarch developed this World War II masterpiece (which you can find a full review of here) and it also includes accounts with veterans of the war, and, once again, redeemable codes can be found for more multiplayer maps. Call of Duty 2: Platinum Hits Extended Edition for the Xbox 360 is essentially the same game as Call of Duty 2: GOTY (which you can read a review of here), only available of the bargain price of $29.99. As always, more information about these two games can be found in the full press release below:
Santa Monica, CA – March 13, 2007 – Strap your boots on! The non-stop battle of World War II is now in the palm of your hand. Activision, Inc. (Nasdaq: ATVI) today announced that Call of Duty®: Roads to Victory for the PSP® (PlayStation®Portable) system, developed by Amaze Entertainment, a division of Foundation 9 Entertainment, has shipped to retailers nationwide. Players are now set to experience on the PSP system the signature cinematic intensity and chaos of battle from the premier WWII first-person action franchise. Call of Duty: Roads to Victory is rated "T" for Teen (blood, language and violence) by the ESRB and carries a suggested retail price of $39.99.
In conjunction with the new release for the PSP system, Activision's all-out assault this spring includes the release of special edition versions of Call of Duty favorites, Call of Duty® 3 Gold and Call of Duty® 2 Platinum Hits, both for the Xbox 360™ video game and entertainment system from Microsoft.
Call of Duty: Roads to Victory features all-new missions and thrusts players directly into the boots of an 82nd Airborne Division infantry soldier, a Canadian First Army rifleman and an elite British Parachute Regiment commando. Designed from the ground up with the Call of Duty intensity and non-stop action, the title enables gamers to select from four diverse control schemes, a multitude of multiplayer options and a number of widely varied gameplay challenges such as mounted machine gun battles, sniper encounters and aircraft attacks to deliver the most lifelike WWII adventure ever to grace the PSP system.
For console fans, Call of Duty 3: GOLD Edition continues the adrenaline rushing, heart-pounding intensity of the original Call of Duty 3, now including a redeemable code used to obtain a free Call of Duty 3 multiplayer map pack available on Xbox Live® Marketplace. This special edition features a bonus DVD, complete with behind-the-scenes footage from the developers at Treyarch and heroic tales from war veterans. Call of Duty 3: GOLD Edition for Xbox 360 is available for a suggested retail price of $59.99 and rated "T" for Teen (blood, mild language and violence) by the ESRB.
For even more Call of Duty action, fans of the hit Call of Duty 2, the leading next-generation launch title, can pick up a copy of Call of Duty 2: Platinum Hits Expanded Edition. The special edition is only the fifth title to reach Platinum Hits status for Xbox 360 and features an exclusive DVD with developer interviews from Infinity Ward, historical accounts of real WWII battles, and mission walkthroughs. Call of Duty 2: Platinum Hits Expanded Edition is available for a suggested retail price of $29.99 and rated "T" for Teen (blood, language and violence) by the ESRB.

I have Bears season tickets so Jeannie Walters, Mr. W., Mr. D, and I made our way to Soldier Field last night for the game. Fully expecting a disappointing night, I felt like I was going to throw up with anticipation. Sure we'd won against the Lions in the season home opener (a gift, really) and we stunned the Cowboys last week, but I had more at stake here. I have LOTS of friends who are Packers fans and a loss would mean having to listen to them go on and on and on about their smelly cheese head team.
But when Devin Hester ran the ball back for the TD to take the lead, I exclaimed, "If we win this game, I am writing tomorrow about how much the Packers suck." Fully realizing this has nothing to do with communications, I don't care! We are 3-0!!
So here you are…the top 10 reasons the Packers suck.
Number 10: They wear cheese for hats.
Number 9: They set a team record last night…for 18 penalties.
Number 8: They had not one, but two, fourth quarter turnovers.
Number 7: They know better than to kick to Devin Hester, yet they did just that and failed to tackle him while he ran 62 yards for a touchdown.
Number 6: They had 152 (hahahaha!) yards in penalties.
Number 5: They had four false starts (or traveling, as I like to call it)!
Number 4: They no longer have youth and inexperience to blame.
Number 3: Aaron Rodgers does get rattled…after 60 minutes of being rushed, beat down, and chased.
Number 2: Aaaron Rodgers eats babies (and, as it turns out, he's not Brett Favre).
Number 1: And last, but certainly not least, with four seconds left in the game, they tried anything to run a punt back, only to get called for penalty after penalty for illegal lateral moves. If you haven't seen the last four seconds of the game, it's worth finding it…really.
I can finally say…BEAR DOWN to all of my Packers fan friends!

Huge Bears fan – hate the Pack with a passion, but the penalties were the story in the game. Wasn't pretty, but a win is a win. The Bears are finding ways to win games, sometimes with a little luck – sounds a lot like the '06 season.
Player of the game, by far, was "Orange" Julius Peppers – no sacks, but a blocked FG, not to mention those false starts and holdings were a direct effect of his presence and the fear of the Pack's o-line.
I think spending money on Peppers was a GREAT move!
What little of the game I actually watched, the announcers made the same points as 9, 7, 6, and 5. Many times in the 30 or so minutes I watched. I do have to diagree with you on #10. Come on, any excuse to wear silly/stupid hats is a good excuse. How else would you explain the corn cob things we wear for the Huskers? Oh and I still crack up when I think of little old you getting bloodthirsty at a football game. You know why.
MK, I don't know how you didn't watch that entire game. HOLY COW! The last four seconds. Find it. Watch it.
I took Trent to the pathetic Cards game last night. I normally do not watch the NFL. I'm going to go hide under my desk now to avoid the expected salvo that will be coming my way from the Northside.
I love the Bears but this was a sloppy win and Cutler even said that when he was interviewed after the game. Hester was AWESOME! I don't want to jinx our Bears and since they will play the Pack in January I am going to keep my toes, fingers, and eyes crossed but I will say 3 and 0 SOUNDS AND FEELS AWESOME!!!!!!!!
HA HA HA HA!! He does eat babies. And those last 4 seconds were like the Green Bay follies. HA HA HA HA!
Yes, hard to "bear" the aftermath of a game the Pack gifted to the Bears.
Your Bears were dominated in nearly every category except penalties–Cutler had two more interceptions overturned by, yes penalties. And yes, I'd be worried that "Mr. 26" interceptions has returned.
The Packers did win the stupid award, no doubt, although Mr 26 tried his best.
Lambeau in January– I'll be gnashing my teeth and crying in my beer until then.
Go Pack.
Nick! How did I not know you're a cheese head?! And I liked you so much.
You deserve this post today, Gini. That's more than I can say for the Bears, though. They're running outta their miracle wins pretty quick this year, methinks.
Hopefully when we meet again in January, the Pack can simply rest their starters.
By the way, Mr. Peppers is a B-E-A-S-T. Worth the money.
Nate, I love Peppers. I love Johnny Knox more, but I agree that was money well spent.
Julius Peppers attended my alma mater. Not sure if that aided in last night's victory, but I thought you should know that fact.
Thank God I'm not a Packers fan – they just got served!
Bear DOWN !!! WOOTY WOOT !!!! I was thinking of you while watching the game, knowing that you were there, screaming your head off…thank God it wasn't a "cheese head"….LoL
Gini, "Darn near perfect, that's all" as my Packer-lovin ex-boss used to say. This was a sweet post, but, as you suggested in the first sentence there may be a major karma shift on its way….this may all come back. But hey, it was fun! (from a Chicagoan-Illini living in East Lansing near that character Dave Isbell!).
[…] This post was mentioned on Twitter by Gini Dietrich, Deb Bruser. Deb Bruser said: RT @ginidietrich: The Top 10 Reasons the Packers Suck @spinsucks http://ff.im/-rg26a […]
But … da Bears still stuck.
the packers had 18 penalties for 152 yards, commited 2 turnovers in the fourth quarter, one while they were going in to score, had at least 2 interceptions late in the game called back because of penalties, had a field goal blocked, and the bears only won on a last second field goal. yeah, the packers sucked that game. a lot. but after all of that, how good can the bears be to only win by 3? at the last second?
Packers won the super bowl…suck it.
[…] the only thing I don't like about him. And really, that can't be surprising because the Packers suck (that still is in our top 20 Google searches on the […]
[…] Bears! And […]
This was too funny to not share with the bear and packer fans in this household

Cool design, very clean. I'm far from qualified to tell you what should be fixed but here is an idea i had. In the top left of the city, is the jagged line representing a cliff? (I assumed so because of the small drawing next to it) If so, first, well done adding the small sketch to represent that, it's a nice addition, second maybe your "design flaw" could just be increasing the size the cliff has taken of the city, you could move it in considerably, since this is the oldest city on the continent, it could be assumed that the cliff would continue erode and take a larger part of the city, and then the poor people of the city could be forced to live closer to the edge of the cliff, creating a slums area.
Anyway I like the design so far and can't wait to see further progress

It is indeed my beilef that mesothelioma can be the most dangerous cancer. It has unusual traits. The more Ilook at it the harder I am certain it does not conduct itself like a true solid tissues cancer. In casemesothelioma is often a rogue viral infection, therefore there is the chance for developing a vaccine andoffering vaccination to asbestos subjected people who are really at high risk with developing long runasbestos linked malignancies. Thanks for discussing your ideas about this important ailment.http://wjbphc.com [url=http://ntjlzfd.com]ntjlzfd[/url][link=http://zhcaia.com]zhcaia[/link]

Igor, the SEOSimple plugin does not use the meta box in your TinyMCE edotir. It adds its own meta lines tothe page source.The best way to view the output is to view the page source directly.

Hello Ryan, thanks for ctneriag thiswonderful plugin. Let me sort out the request which will make your plugin one of the best in JED(InshaAllah).Joomla default category/frontpage blog layout divide article pages in part by partpagination format like: page1, page2, page3. However, the title remains same' for all pages. The Googlewebmaster report shows a lot of duplicate titles and duplicate description on the site. As a result I rankedout from top 10, even from top 100-130 in google search.Sh404sef helps to create titles for every pagelike fish page 1 , fish page 2 if I activate Seo Management but doesn't auto generatedescription.SeoSimple auto generates description but doesn't create titles for every page. I Request youto add these options:1. Titles for every page (pagination)2. link rel= canonical option.3.Exclude categories from auto generating meta description.

Hi,I am pretty much a nebwie in developing joomla on my own and on self study. I wanted to use a differenttemplate for my blog category but the default (home page) template is the one being used. The blogcategory is the third template I have used on my site. I tried this code right here, but I could not seem tomake it work. Maybe I missed something, me being not so good in back-end development.Locally, I used xamppon a Win7 OS; and I did not seem to have this problem. My domain is linux-based, tho. Is there aconnection? Sorry if I seemed to have veered away from the topic, but this is essentially my problem. I alsotried assigning the blog category to other templates in the template manager and switching from html5 to xhtmlsetting in the beez5 template as trial and error. At one point, the layout actually changed to The templatefor this display is not available. Please contact a Site administrator. I am really close to pulling my hairout here since yesterday, and I would really appreciate all the help, if you have the time. Thanks!

Hi Kevinjohn,First, I'm always up for havnig someone playing Devil's Advocate! :) But I shouldnote: I've actually got another comment held in the moderation queue (too many reference links),in which I compare WordPress and Joomla, with respect to Community Gatherings, Community-ContributedExtensions, Official Support Forums, and Community-Contributed Documentation. I merely left off theStackExchange comparison, and posted a follow-up comment which currently appears rather out ofcontext.Second: the premise primarily entailed not the quality of the help provided by the community, butrather by the relative size of the community. The assertion that WordPress has a small community relative toJoomla or Drupal is prime facie absurd.The relative quality of help provided by each community is anotherquestion entirely, and one that I wasn't really attempting to address. But, to that point:In myexperience, finding out answers to simple WP questions is very quick; but rises at an exponential rate as youmove from simple to moderate to advanced. In large part due to the input/output of it'scommunity.That's actually what prompted me to mention StackExchange. The relative difficulty of a typicalWPSE question is considerably more advanced/complex than the typical WPORG support forum question and inmy experience, the answers are commensurately advanced and thorough. (Although, I would also counter thatthe problem with the WPORG support forums isn't the quality of answers, but rather the quality of theoriginal questions; people simply fail to follow instructions instructions designed to help them get thebest-possible answers to their questions. That is, in part, why I believe that WPSE is uniquely designedto help get answers to the more difficult WordPress-related questions.)

throwing good money after bad
Let them sell till the stock gets to $5. Come on "SHORTS" make my day and make this happen. I'll BUY at LOW BARGAIN PRICE.
I'm buying... I can hold... this is fire sale... you'll never get prices like this again.Fibonacci retracements … you got to love it.
Yet somehow the price has gone up for 2-1/2 hours. lol. Move along betty boop, before your $11 short evaporates.
I was an "idiot" over the past couple years when people wanted cash rather than investments in good companies. In my area, the schools all buy Pet milk products, Wal*Mart's Sam's Club sells DF milk.If you would rather have cash than shares of DF, that's your choice. Hopefully you won't regret your actions.
WTF are you smoking LOL - this action is beautiful!
