Learn about Windows PowerShell
Hey, Scripting Guy! How can I determine which drives on a computer are mapped to network shares?-- CP
Hey, CP. OK, you better sit down, because what we're about to say will shock you: if you want to determine which drives on a computer are mapped to network shares, don't use the Win32_MappedLogicalDisk class.
Oh, look: you spilled coffee on everything. Didn't we tell you to sit down? Here, here's some paper towels.
While you clean up - don't forget that little puddle by the phone - we'll explain why. The truth is, you can use the WMI class Win32_MappedLogicalDisk to determine which drives are mapped to network shares. The problem, however, is that while this class will return the drive letters for these drives, it won't tell you which shares the drives are mapped to. Weird, but true.
And so it's Win32_LogicalDisk to the rescue. With this class not only can we determine which drives are mapped to network shares, but we can also determine which network shares they map to. And to do that requires nothing more than a script like this:
strComputer = "."
Set objWMIService = GetObject("winmgmts:\\" & strComputer & "\root\cimv2")
Set colDrives = objWMIService.ExecQuery _
("Select * From Win32_LogicalDisk Where DriveType = 4")
For Each objDrive in colDrives
Wscript.Echo "Drive letter: " & objDrive.DeviceID
Wscript.Echo "Network path: " & objDrive.ProviderName
Stop us if you've heard this one before, but the script starts out by connecting to the WMI service on the local computer. (As usual, you can modify this script to run against a remote computer simply by assigning the name of that machine to the variable strComputer.) We then use this line of code to return a collection of all the mapped network drives:
Set colDrives = objWMIService.ExecQuery _
("Select * From Win32_LogicalDisk Where DriveType = 4")
The key here - as you might have guessed - lies in our Where clause. We're asking for all instances of the class where the DriveType is equal to 4; needless to say, a DriveType equal to 4 represents a mapped network drive. (For other DriveType values, see the WMI SDK on MSDN.) The query returns a collection of all the mapped drives; we then set up a For Each loop to walk through that collection. For each mapped drive we echo the value of two properties: DeviceID, which returns the drive letter for the drive; and ProviderName, which returns the network share the drive is mapped to.
In other words, we get back information similar to this:
Drive letter: E:
Network path: \\atl-fs-01\public
Drive letter: F:
Network path: \\atl-fs-01\finance
Drive letter: G:
Network path: \\atl-fs-01\users\kenmyer
That's OK, we understand: as useful as this script is, it still comes as a bit of a shock that we didn't use the Win32_MappedLogicalDisk class. Listen, this has been kind if rough on you: why don't you take the rest of the day off? Just tell your boss the Scripting Guys said it was OK.
Legal disclaimer. On the advice of our attorneys (and, trust us, the Scripting Guys need their own attorneys), we did not say it was OK. (But if you want to try it anyway, well, good luck.)
I'm trying to do this in Javascript and it works when connecting to the Local machine, but not remotely.
Stuck on this and I have no idea what's going wrong !
When using WMI to connect to a remote machine to run a query, there are several things that can possibly go wrong. The first is permission, in general the account you use to connect to the remote machine must be a member of the local admin group. The connectServer method allows you to specify alternate credentials for a remote connection see the MSDN docs http://bit.ly/eNgNlE In addition, there can be profile issues, firewall issues, and other potential problems. Take a look at the articles in my WMI library to see if the information there will help http://bit.ly/hpaSwy
I'm assuming it's not a permissions issue as I can get the free space from C: drive on that same remote machine.
Though these machines are a part of an AD domain, and I've seen mention of sessions for the mapped drives which I've been trying to puzzle out, but haven't gotten anywhere yet unfortunately.
Could the sessions thing be what's stopping my script from working ?
@Lawrence If the drives are mapped via the session of the interactive user and WMI is not using that session then the drives will not be visible to WMI.
Thanks, that sounds like what I'm running up against.
Looks like I'll have to find a way around that.
Thanks again.
Is there anyway of being able to import that info into a new machine i.e. using the script to export the mapped drives and then import them onto a new machine?
Thanks in advance
What if you want to know about the Currently logged on User of a remote computer? How do I enumerate THEIR mapped network drive?
that should have read:
Get-WMIObject -query "Select DeviceID,ProviderName From Win32_MappedLogicalDisk"
is there a way to us "IF THEN ELSE" logic to check if a drive exists from the result of the "SELECT" query then skip that drive and remove the rest of the drives?
Whats the best way to simply output all of the drives to one echo box please? e.g.
Drive letter: E: is mapped to \\atl-fs-01\public
Drive letter: F: is mapped to \\atl-fs-01\finance
Drive letter: G: is mapped to \\atl-fs-01\users\kenmyer
<OK Button>
All on one screen.
I've tried a lot of scripts to get this to work, but hit the wall in the end. It appears to be a permission issue. I confirmed that when I used a software from
https://www.maliciousfilehunter.com/ and although it can search local, and removable drives it looks like my permissions where not good for network drives.
well, don´t working in System Center configuration manager 2012,
I try create on MOF, bu my return is C: and D:
don´t show Share, because sharing show in the same user
Hi but this won't work on a remote machine because it won't be running in the context of the remote user! How would you get the mapped drives of othe user logged on to the remote system without thier password? Goverland does it somehow!
when I change strComputer to actual name it errors
error permission denied: 'getobject'
For Each objDrive in colDrives
strMsg = strMsg & vbCRLF & "Drive letter: " & objDrive.DeviceID
strMsg = strMsg & vbCRLF & "Network path: " & objDrive.ProviderName
strMsg = strMsg & vbCRLF
MsgBox strMsg, vbOk, "Mapped Drives"

This was applied on me at 10:30am. I went home and was tired and went to sleep without taking the eyeliner off (yes I was really tired). I woke up at 6:30pm and it was still on. It only budged after I used eye makeup remover at 8:30pm!

I didn't hate this, in fact I used it for probably a year, but it really isn't that special color-wise or application-wise, given that practically half of all cosmetic companies make gel liners, many for a third the price. This is long lasting on me and it's a not really true black, but close. I liked it while I used it, but now I think there are cheaper, pretty darn good dupes. I will say I'm not a devoted to one makeup product kinda gal, I can never resist the next big thing.

Skin: Sensitive, Fair, Not Sure

When I first saw the gel liner, I was totally against converting from pencil to gel. The idea painting on liner petrified me, and it looked like an art. But, after a few times of practicing, this is the best way of applying liner and I'm never going back to pencil. This does not smudge and lasts ALL day. The only complaint I have about this is that it dries out very quickly (after a few months) and isn't as quality as when you first buy it because of that. So, every time you use this you MUST put on the cap as soon as you're done using it. Minimize the air!
Age: 25-29
Skin: Combination, Fair, Not Sure
Hair: Brunette, Other, Other
Eyes: Brown
This is a GREAT eyeliner. I've been using this for the past few years and I can't imagine going back to traditional pencil liners. With the gel liner, I can create a more natural looking line around my eyes, and this color is a perfect mix of black and brown. On nights when i want to go for a more dramatic look, I line my eyes a bit thicker and it looks great. It's a really versatile product and the best thing is that it stays on my eyes all day without smudging. Love it!
Age: 44-55
Skin: Combination, Medium, Warm
Hair: Black, Curly, Medium
Eyes: Brown
I must share a secret with my fellow brunette MUAers-- this is TERRIFIC for BROWS! Take a tiny dab on your BB ultrafine eyeliner brush, wipe any excess on a tissue and VERY lightly (with a sketching motion) fill in your brows in the same direction that they grow. Take your time the first time you do this until you get the feel of it. When you are satisfied, give it a second or two to dry, then go over it gently with an eyebrow brush. Dab your brows lightly with compact powder to soften the look. Your brows will last ALL DAY and won't smudge, even in hot weather. Of course, the most appropriate colors for this are Mahogany or Sepia ink.
UPDATE-I've discovered Makeup Forever Waterproof Brow Corrector. It works on the same principal but it's designed specifically for brows.
Age: 30-35
Skin: Combination, Fair-Medium, Not Sure
Hair: Black, Other, Other
Eyes: Black
I love this gel liner! The color looks so natural and yet makes me look so much better than without it. It is so easy to apply with the ultrafine eyeliner brush (although the brush wore off too quickly, but that's another product to review). It is quite a hassle to use though coz I would very much prefer a pencil liner that could do the same thing for my eyes, but have yet to find one. I've bought quite a few pencil liners to try to copy the effect that this gel liner does to my eyes, but still no luck. I always have to come back to this gel liner and threw away all those useless pencils.
It does smudge on me a little though as I'm in a tropical zone and have quite oily eyelids, but I could live with that.
Forgot to say that I wouldn't buy this color again coz there are so many other colors I wanna try such as granite ink, mahogany, etc.
Age: 19-24
Skin: Combination, Tan, Not Sure
Hair: Brown, Other, Other
Eyes: Brown
Color: dark browned black. The problem I've had with some brown eyeliners is that they are TOO brown, I want a less harsh, more natural looking alternative to black. This color is perfect because it's close to black but not as harsh and much more softer and natural looking.
Texture/staying power: The BEST! BB Gel liners are comparable to MAC but with one major difference: texture. The texture of MAC's fluidlines is wetter, not as thick as Bobbi Brown's. BB gel liners are of a thicker, less wet consistency and I find BB's much easier to work with and I much prefer the texture over MAC's. However, for some reason, I use up Bobbi Brown gel liner pots faster than MAC's---but that could be a benefit, more sanitary (less time for bacteria to fester in the pot of liner.)
This is my HG liner. I find jet black gel liners such as MAC fluidline to harsh sometimes, although I love blacktrack for tightlining because it's more defining when used as tightlining than BB Sepia Ink. But I like Sepia Ink better for regular eye lining, I love how natural it looks. This really is longwearing, I have oily eyelids that causes other eyeliners (pencil liners) to raccoon eye and smear on me within a few hours of applying. Bobbi Brown stays on longer, does not raccoon eye on me, and does not smear. You could apply it before going to sleep and it would be there the next morning. This is PERFECT with Urban Decay primer potion.
Age: 19-24
Skin: Combination, Fair, Not Sure
Hair: Brown, Other, Other
Eyes: Blue
This is the best eyeliner I've ever used. Every previous attempt has been somewhat unsuccessful as I would always accidently draw it on too thick. This would make my eyes appear much smaller, closer together, and deeper set due to my eyelids being hidden behind a thick line. Brown's gel liner allows you to make the thinnest line possible, as close to the lash line as possible, with the smallest effort. I wish I tried it a long time ago.
Age: 36-43
Skin: Combination, Fair, Neutral
Hair: Brown, Straight, Fine
Eyes: Blue
I have been using this Bobbi Brown gel eyeliner for about 2 years now. Before that, I used a waterproof pencil liner from Prestige, which I thought at the time was pretty good, but since using the BB liner I don't think anything can compare. I have eyelids which don't have a large open lid area (I guess you can call it a hooded eye, like an Asian eye, although I am not Asian), and anything other than a waterproof liner just smudges and smears all over the place. Even some of the waterproof liners would smear. But this one stays in place like no other yet is easily removed with eye makeup remover (I use Neutrogena) or plain baby oil. I love the color for my fair skin/blue eyes; it's not as harsh on me as black. It's not hard to apply, especially with practice, and I use the BB eyeliner brush, the one with the yellow bristles as I like a thicker line across my top lids. The only complaint I have is that the 2 pots of this I've had in the past have dried out quite a bit by the time it's halfway gone. A MAC artist recently told me that by adding just the tiniest drop of tea tree oil, the consistency will come back, but I've been reluctant to do this yet. If it gets bad enough, it's worth a try before tossing it away, tho.
Age: 19-24
Skin: Normal, Fair, Not Sure
Hair: Blond, Other, Other
Eyes: Green
This is the best eyeliner I have ever used! It has fantastic staying power (won't crease) and is easy to apply. I'm quite fair skinned and have blonde hair so the sepia color works really well for daytime looks. The gel is really easy to apply, though it can get a little inconvenient to have to carry around the eyeliner brush. I've gotten this eyeliner is 3 other colors and highly recommend it. Though it is expensive a pot will last at least a year.

Collector urchin
The collector urchin (Tripneustes gratilla) is a species of sea urchin. Collector urchins are found at depths of 2 to 30 metres (7 to 100 ft) in the waters of the Indo-Pacific, Hawaii, and the Red Sea. They can reach 10 to 15 centimetres (4 to 6 in) in size.
Collector urchins are dark in colour, usually bluish-purple with white spines. The pedicles are also white, with a dark or black base.[1] Individuals found at Green Island had orange-tipped spines. The spines of some specimens are wholly orange, while those of others are only orange-tipped or completely white.[1] This colour disappears when the individual dies or is taken out of the ocean, and is difficult to preserve.[1] Collector urchins reach 10 to 15 centimetres (4 to 6 in) in size.[2] Debris tends to "collect" on these urchins, hence their name.[3]
Unlike some other sea urchins, collector urchins graze continually, day and night. They graze near the substrate, and their diet includes algae, periphyton, and seagrass.[4] Most collector urchins feed on seagrass fronds; this has an ecological impact varying with the season and abundance of the urchins. They feed voraciously between November and January; one study found they consumed up to or in excess of half of seagrass production. On an annual basis, however, the same study concluded that about 24% of seagrass production is consumed by the collector urchin.[4] The seagrass species grazed are mainly Thalassodendron ciliatum and Syringodim isoetifolium, but other algae may also be consumed.[5]
Collector urchins are prey for puffer fish, octopus and humans.

Distribution and habitat[edit]
Collector urchins are found in the waters of the Indo-Pacific, Hawaii, and the Red Sea.[2] They are distributed from Mozambique to the Red Sea, westward to Hawaii and Clarion Island, eastward to Paumotu, and as far south as Port Jackson. It also occurs at Shark's Bay on the west coast of Australia.[1] Mature collector urchins prefer open sea bottoms with some cover, but the young prefer rocky areas for concealment.[1] Collector urchins inhabit depths of 2 to 30 metres (7 to 100 ft).[2]
Relationship to humans[edit]
Collector urchins are economically important in some parts of the world. They are edible and sometimes exploited by humans; as a result, they have become less abundant. Over the past ten years, overexploitation has caused a sharp decline in the collector urchin population.[4]
Harvesting algae[edit]
Hawaii state aquatic biologists, working with divers from the Hawaii Division of Aquatic Resources placed 1,000 native collector urchins on a 500 square metres (5,400 sq ft) area of reef in Kaneohe Bay on January 29, 2011. The urchins were released to help control the invasive seaweed genus Kappaphycus, also known as "smothering seaweed," which has overrun local coral. Tripneustes gratilla stays on the reef and is an effective algae grazer.[6]
The urchins were bred at Anuenue Fisheries Research Center from about a million larvae. The larvae produced 25,000 specimens that reached at least 15 millimetres (0.6 in) in diameter in about five months. The delicate young had to be kept suspended in the water column for weeks after hatching. The project intends to release 10,000 to 25,000 urchins per month.[6]
Kaneohe Bay is the only barrier reef system in the United States. The alien seaweed was brought to Hawaii for commercial applications such as keeping ice chunks out of ice cream. It escaped when the industry failed.[6]
For years, the state used a marine vacuum pump to remove the algae, at one time removing 10,000 pounds (4,500 kg). In 2009, the scientists gathered urchins from other parts of the state and released them at Kaneohe Bay. A year later, they found the urchins had successfully kept the seaweed down.[6]

Newcastle-based FaulknerBrowns is to go for planning permission with this design for the extension of a Grade II-listed lido in Uxbridge, west London.The project will include the refurbishment of the site's unusual 12-sided outdoor swimming pool - larger than an Olympic-sized pool - and its grandstand building.The designs include plans to build an indoor 25m swimming pool, a sports hall, a gym and healthcare facilities.
Originally, the practice's designs included a 50m pool, but the current financial crisis at Sport England - which was set to part-fund the project - has meant the client and architects have had to rein in their plans.

Janice Dickinson: America's Next Top Model Is Rigged!
There's been a lot of controversy surrounding America's Next Top Model: All Stars since Wednesday's finale, and former panel judge Janice Dickinson isn't just standing quietly on the sidelines.
"CoverGirl are the ones who choose the model -- not any of the judges. People don't know that!" the former supermodel says in an interview on Janice TV at FilmOn.com. "When I found that out, I split. It's rigged!"
VIDEO: ANTM's wildest meltdowns
Dickinson, 56, continued: "The fact of the matter is [Tyra Banks] makes like $90 million. She makes a lot of money per year still hawking that franchise worldwide -- they're doing it in every country -- and it's CoverGirl who chooses the winner." She then signed off on the interview by shouting "F*** you Tyra! Eat a bag of royal skank!"
Countering Dickinson's comments about the show and CoverGirl, ANTM's network, The CW, tells Us Weekly, "This is completely untrue."
PHOTOS: Meet the ANTM All-Stars contestants
On Friday, Dickinson, who served on the panel of judges from Seasons 1-4, reiterated her thoughts on Tyra and the show to Us. "Yes, I have a distaste for her. In America you say the truth. On TV you can fabricate it but eventually we all find out."
VIDEO: Watch the ANTM All-Stars model the Kardashian Kollection
On Wednesday's show, contestant Lisa D'Amato was named the first winner of America's Next Top Model: All-Stars, but her crowning moment was nearly overshadowed by fellow contestant Angelea Preston's shocking dismissal.
Though Preston competed in Greece alongside D'Amato and Allison Harvard during the final runway challenge, she did not appear before the judges in L.A.
The CW later explained that it "learned information that made Angelea ineligible," forcing them to disqualify her from the competition. "As a result, new scenes were filmed to address this for the audience during the finale."
Though rumors swirled that Preston had won the competition and spilled the beans on Facebook (thus violating her confidentially agreement), D'Amato told Us on Friday that "sounds absurd."

Determinants of Retirement Decisions in Europe and the United States: A Cross-National Comparison of Institutional, Firm-level and Individual Factors
Up until the late-1990s, European labour markets were characterised by early employment exits of senior workers well before official retirement ages; a trend increasingly considered unsustainable in times of demographic ageing. However, despite recent policy reforms to prolong working life – often summarised under the concept of 'active ageing' – older workers' employment has increased only moderately and their labour market integration remains deficient.
One obstacle for raising old-age employment has been a limited understanding of older workers' employment vs. retirement decisions and of the different 'drivers' that influence them. Against this background, the project will analyse older workers' retirement decisions and their complex set of determinants in 11 European countries, Japan and the U.S. In a first phase, nation-specific case-studies will reconstruct relevant 'framework conditions' of older workers' retirement decisions, considering macro- (e.g. nation-state policies) and meso-level factors (e.g. workplace practices). Given these framework conditions, a second phase will focus on the empirical investigation of retirement decisions. For this phase, most recent data (SHARE/SHARELIFE/LFS) will be used to contrast possible changes in the timing and voluntariness of retirement decisions as well as its determinants before and after the political shift from 'early exit' to 'active ageing'.
Two project conferences were hosted at the MZES in February and May 2014 at which country reports on institutional, firm-level and individual determinants of retirement decisions were presented. These reports will be summarized in an edited volume for which the proposal has been sent to a renowned publisher for review. In addition first analyses of retirement behaviour based on data from the Labour Force Survey (LFS) 2006 were conducted. Further analyses will provide country-specific results, adding a comparison with the newly available module on Work-Retirement-Transition 2012.

dos Santos meaning Geronimo dos Santos, not JDS. Otherwise I don't know why you are saying "Wut?" here. Geronimo is on a great win streak right now but almost every big name fighter he's faced has beaten him. Probably his biggest win to date is Assuerio Silva in 2009. JDS, Barnett, Thiago Santos, & Edinaldo Oliveira all finished Geronimo in in the first round.If Gonzaga isn't able to get Geronimo down or tries to stand with him this could be a good fight though.
8/1/12 2:05 PM by FixedPartialArts
Geronimo is not a credible signing for the UFC, but this is a good card nonetheless sans attrition.

I'm really surprised the UFC signed dos Santos, I feel like he's lost every big fight he has had. This fight should be exciting though, and I think Gonzaga will smash him.

DoD seeks input from Soldiers on MWR programs
July 11, 2011
Story Highlights
- DoD seeks Soldier's input on MWR programs
- Important for Army's "voice" to be heard in DoD survey
- Select Soldiers from all components will receive email this week asking them to participate.
The Defense Department is working to make sure each service, and DoD as a whole, is providing the "right" MWR programs and services to Soldiers and their Families.
DoD is currently conducting a survey to gauge the opinions of MWR customers world-wide. Because of shrinking defense budgets, it's more important than ever before to ensure the services are meeting Soldier's and Family's needs. A random sample of 138,000 active duty, National Guard and Reserve Soldiers will receive a reminder email this week from the Department of Defense (email@example.com) to lend their voice to the survey and the way ahead for these programs.
The survey is designed to evaluate MWR program delivery for DoD as a whole and for each military service. This second biennial survey also asks for feedback from selected members of the National Guard and Reserves.
Since the results will be used to improve program options and service delivery, it's important to gather a statistically valid number of responses. DoD is asking everyone who received an invitation to complete the survey and help gauge the services' ability to meet the MWR customer's needs.
Service members were chosen through random sampling, and are being asked to assess their experience with the MWR program overall and with a core set of MWR programs including fitness, libraries, and recreation programs (outdoor recreation, recreation centers, automotive skills, single member services, and leisure travel). The survey questions cover customer service, operation hours, facility condition, and quality of services provided among other items.
Participation is voluntary, anonymous and confidential. No information that can identify service members will be associated with responses.

Members of Jawaharlal Nehru University Students Union shout slogans during a protest against a gang rape of two teenage girls in Katra village, outside the Uttar Pradesh state house, in New Delhi, India, Friday, May 30, 2014. A top government official said the northern Uttar Pradesh state has sacked two police officers who failed to respond to a complaint by the father of the two teenage girls who went missing and were later found gang raped and killed. (AP Photo/Manish Swarup)
LUCKNOW, India (AP) -- Facing relentless media attention and growing criticism for a series of rapes, state officials in north India fired two police officers Friday for failing to investigate the disappearance of two teenage cousins, who were gang-raped and later found hanging from a tree.
But in a country with a long history of tolerance for sexual violence, the firings also came as the state's top official mocked journalists for asking about the attack.
"Aren't you safe? You're not facing any danger, are you?" Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Akhilesh Yadav said in Lucknow, the state capital. "Then why are you worried? What's it to you?"
The gang rape, with video of the girls' corpses hanging from a mango tree and swaying gently in a breeze, was the top story Friday on India's relentless 24-hour news stations. But in just the past few days, Uttar Pradesh has also seen the mother of a rape victim brutally attacked and a 17-year-old girl gang-raped by four men.
Uttar Pradesh is India's most populous state, with nearly 200 million people.
Official statistics say about 25,000 rapes are committed every year in India, a nation of 1.2 billion people. But activists say that number is very low, since women are often pressed by family or police to stay quiet about sexual assaults

I have a WH-R550 (Shimano) wheelset that came with my '06 Cannondale R700. Not the kind of wheel that normally is my cup of tea but I'll ride'm until I have a good reason not to.
Some 700 miles in, the front one feels a little rough (weirdly, this is soon, never rode'm in the rain, etc) and I decide it's time for a repack. I have cone wrenchage for 13 - 16mm but these seem to be 17mm. I measure, 17mm cone flats for a front hub.
But that seems just.... whacky. I mean, ok, the calipers don't lie. But before I go and shell out for cone wrenches, can anyone confirm that yeah, chapter & verse is that 17mm is the size?
Oh yeah - rear wheel seems to be 15mm. Thanx Shimano!

Right on the Money: Financial Advice for Tough Times by Pat Robertson
You know that Pat Robertson is a world-famous televangelist, but did you know that he's also an expert in financial matters? In his weekly broadcast segment, "Money Monday", Dr. Robertson answers viewers' questions about all things financial. His deep knowledge of finance, based on sound economic - and Biblical - principles, has made him a "go to" resource for hundreds of thousands of CBN viewers.
Now he has written a book that is accessible to everyone and provides answers people desperately need in today's tough times.
Among the topics he addresses are how to:
Create a healthy financial plan
Devise spending strategies to help you live within your budget
Identify areas where your money can grow
Build a nest egg
Maximize your tax savings
Cut costs
Diminish your debt
Invest wisely
Make prudent financial decisions
Plan for the future
Enjoy peace of mind and God's financial protection
RIGHT ON THE MONEY also includes a financial glossary, worksheets and a special section of the most frequently asked questions & answers about keeping what you have and growing your personal net worth.

I believe you will find this book very informative. I am not so up on financial things because my husband deals with it all. If you are like me or just want to learn more about finances, then you will enjoy this book. You can learn how to find things like "What's MY SCORE?", what are mutual funds and exchange-traded funds, learn about mortgages, and the BIG question of how do I get out of debt.
I recently reviewed the Right on the Money CD's. The 3 CD's are read by Pat Robertson. You will find that the book and the CD's are not exactly the same. I have never listened to an audio book before this and did not realize that CD's are often not word for word like the published book. Listen to the sample of a portion of chapter #7 online at Hachette Book Group.
The audio version consists of topics like the following:
* Home ownership - it isn't for everyone
* The cardinal rule of credit cards
* Three steps to paying off creditors
* How to improve your credit score
* How to create a budget
* Who needs life insurance
* How to build a nest egg.
Why not let Dr. Robertson help you with this teaching tool!
