It is delivered as an executive style program, using nontraditional scheduling and some blended distance education to accommodate working adults. Students attend multiple on-site intensive sessions at the University of Pennsylvania over the course of the program and complete synchronous and asynchronous online work between these sessions. All students complete core courses within each of the three domains as well as a capstone project. Graduates of the program leave not only with a more robust entrepreneurial mindset, but also with concrete skills that will prepare you to undertake new ventures in your chosen area of interest.

Students in the M.S.Ed. in Education Entrepreneurship program will acquire a strong grounding in three domains: Foundations of Education, Business Essentials, and Entrepreneurial Management of Knowledge.
Within the education domain, students will learn about the connections between policy and pedagogy, as well as the history, structure and goals of schooling. The business domain will focus on marketing, finance, and operations as they pertain to venture creation – in general and to schools in particular. The entrepreneurial management of knowledge domain will provide students with an understanding of how to move research into practice, technology management, intellectual property management, and communications. The combination and integration of all three domains will offer students a comprehensive perspective on innovative ventures in education and position them to create or join such ventures.
In this domain, students study current education systems and policies, as well as the history of how these systems and policies evolved. Students also learn about the history, theory and application of various pedagogies and modes of school organization, as well as how they affect and are affected by government policy and public pressures. Students also study the changing landscape of delivery systems in urban public education.
In this domain, students learn about the financial, operational, legal, and marketing aspects of starting and running a business. This domain provides students with core business skills and experiences that they can use to become entrepreneurs in education and to navigate the business aspects of school creation and administration. The program includes three core business courses.
In this domain, students learn about how entrepreneurs can influence the creation, advancement and successful exploitation of knowledge. How are entrepreneurial insights achieved and developed? How is technology profitably managed and intellectual property rights protected? How do entrepreneurs learn about potential customer segments and meet potential customer needs? How can academic research be effectively connected to practice to improve the viability and impact of products and services?
Business-oriented skills include expertise in business model design, product and service design methodology, marketing strategy, fundraising, best practices in private and public financing, and hiring and talent development. Education-related skills include the ability to navigate the P-20 education policy context, including the ability to identify and gain access to key decision-makers as well as to beta sites and potential consumers, and knowledge of the history and goals of educational institutions. Students also gain expertise in curriculum design and assessment, budget development, and organizational change management. Entrepreneurial skills include expertise in design-thinking, rapid validation methodology, and the application of academic research to enhance product development.
By teaching the key elements of education, business, and entrepreneurship, the program gives entrepreneurs the capacity to successfully create new social impact ventures, including the creation and building of new schools and the development of effective products, services and practices in education.
"I'm trying to understand the problem of public urban education in Boston. The diversity of learners, coupled with a limitation of resources, often hinders student achievement,"
Parris is part of a significant contingent of Education Entrepreneurship students who consider themselves "intrapreneurs," professionals who seek to create innovation and change from within established education organizations.

Completely dominant through his 20s, Martinez won three Cy Youngs by the age of 28 and in seven seasons with Boston, from 1998 to 2004, won more than three out of every four decisions. With the Mets between 2005 and 2008, Martinez's ERA rose and he battled assorted injury problems.

All the drama surrounding the bad end of the year for the Redskins starts with McNabb.
Benched for the last few games of the season, McNabb wasn't performing well at all this season. He threw 14 TD to 15 INT and only had 2 games in which he threw more touchdowns than interceptions. McNabb did have a sub-par offensive line, but it just seemed like he couldn't get rid of the ball at times. For that, he was sacked 37 times in 13 games.
One bad season doesn't ruin a Quarterback, right? As it seems, Donovan McNabb will likely get traded away even though he was signed to a ludicrous contract in the middle of the season. McNabb has a house in Arizona and could be lobbying to go there.
So if that happened, how would this shake up the Top 10, a place where several QBs could go?

For a while now we've been seeing signs that the South Boston market was reaching a tipping point that could lead to a slowdown. While pricing numbers for Southie continue to look great year over year we're beginning to see some troubling signs in the neighborhood with inventory up 36% over this time last year and the average list-to-sale price ratio dipping below 100% for the past 3 months.
What we're finally seeing after two years of huge gains in Southie is a slight push back from buyers, not willing to pay the ever increasing prices and compete in the bidding wars. Simply put, some buyers are sitting out or moving elsewhere now that the "value" of Southie has all but evaporated.
What does this mean? Is the sky falling?
Not at all. In fact, the neighborhood is still strong, up over 9% since last year. However, it seems as though the days of listing a home above market price and still having it sell immediately seem to be done. For now. Homes are still selling on average in about a month and a half, which historically speaking is very good. However, that is up from an average of just 27 days last year. The Southie market just saw one of the largest pricing run ups in Boston history and it may well not be over for good, however, it seems as though there is some signs of a slowdown from the breakneck pace of years past.
For buyers this should give them more opportunities to negotiate a good deal and avoid bidding wars. For sellers this market simply makes it more important to price and market your home correctly. Mistakes in this market can easily cost sellers thousands, something that wasn't as prevalent an issue just a year ago.
Where the neighborhood goes from here is up to the buyers and sellers of Southie. If prices plateau for a short period and inventory dries up again, we may well see another run up. If prices continue to balloon and inventory does as well, we may well see things slow down even further. Only time will tell.

Numerosity: Play with Multiplication!
By ThoughtBox
Open iTunes to buy and download apps.
Surfing Math! Skruff will practice his skills on the surfboard but also… with Multiplication!
Aimed at 7 to 9 year olds, this educational math game encourages kids to discover Multiplication rules while having fun.
Numerosity allows kids to play with the numbers, observe the results of their actions and use their imagination while progressing at their own pace.
Children's progress is visualised in Numerosity not only by the number of points, bones and coins they are winning, but also by the 'color-code' of the levels, starting with Red = 'Need to improve', going through Orange = 'Not too bad', Yellow = 'Good' and finally, Green = 'Fantastic!'
In Multiplication, kids will enjoy the summer holidays with Skruff and this math game by creating profiles to challenge their friends, winning coins, unlocking all the 20 levels, trying to beat records and winning the most challenging achievements to become a master of Multiplication!
And, at the end of the game…SURPRISE! A super certificate from Skruff! Don't forget to print it out and hang it on the wall.
Praise for Numerosity:
**Featured by Apple in 'App Store Best of 2012': Numerosity**
**One of the 12 Best Children Educational Apps of 2012 - Teachers With Apps**
(Note: For parents that already purchased the Multiplication Chapter in Numerosity: Play with Math!, Numerosity: Play with Multiplication! Provides the same fun content within 4 different profiles.)
In the profiles section and at the end of the game we will ask the child for a name and parent's email address. We don't collect any other personal information. We don't share email addresses with third-party companies and we don't spam.
Numerosity: Play with Multiplication! is certified by the kidSAFE® Seal Program. To learn more, visit www.kidsafeseal.com.
ThoughtBox is an educational software provider that delivers learning experiences in specific subject areas centered around Gameful Learning. 'At ThoughtBox we believe in researching and creating software that gives kids the best educational value and encourages them to discover and learn the rules of math on their own. We believe in quality content and educational apps that give kids more than just a few minutes of play'.

Achievement Guide and Roadmap
Guide by: Shiftie and H0p3sfa|L
Also a thanks to Schreckofant for the quest guide work
Route 1 - One Playthrough and Change:
Considering how much help a good character build, and a focus on getting experience from secondary quests can be, you can actually get this game done in about 1.33 playthroughs. First, set the game to Extreme for Mutant, and make sure that right off the bat you are getting, and completing, every secondary quest possible for Completionist. Make sure you are always talking to Innocence, in order to get Mentor, and looting every container you come across for Crowbar (loot EVERYTHING). It's also recommended that you follow the skill tree tips under the Mutant achievement, as you will also get Specialist by maxing out a skill tree.
In order to make this just over a single playthrough, you will want to save at the end of the second chapter, when you need to choose sides for Hero of the Restistance or Man of Honour. Both are relatively the same difficulty on Extreme, so pick whichever one feels right first and complete the game. Then save yourself some time by loading up this save, picking the other option, and completing the game again for what should be your last achievement.
Route 2 - Two Playthroughs:
This path introduces people to the game at a much slower pace by going through a lower difficulty first (either Hard for Hard as Nails, or Easy, since Hard as Nails and Mutant stack anyway). You can scope out the secondary achievements now, to get an idea of when each becomes available so you are less likely to miss any during your second playthrough.
In playthrough two, make sure you finish up any loose ends, most importantly; picking the other faction at the end of Chapter 2, so you get both Man of Honour and Hero of the Resistance, between the two playthroughs.
Achievement Guide:
The Great Escape 10
Finish Chapter 1 at any difficulty level
Story related, unmissable.
You will get this achievement when you complete The Great Escape mission, and escape from the Prison. Note that getting Bob to help you out (side quest) can help you get through the last few areas on Extreme difficulty. As for the boss, look at the information under the Mutant achievement.
Aurora execution 15
Finish Chapter 2 at any difficulty level
Story related, unmissable.
After the fight at the train, and the outcome of the battle for Innocence, the Chapter will quickly come to a close when you are asked to join one of the two factions. This achievement will pop alongside the Mentor achievement.
Plot smasher 20
Finish Chapter 3 at any difficulty level
Story related, unmissable.
After fighting the giant worm, and taking out the Technomancer Boss, you will need to return to your faction leader (Marco or the General) and discuss your next course of action. Once you decide to head out to the Source and deal with the Technomancers, the achievement will unlock.
Hero of the Resistance 20
Finish the game with the Resistance at any difficulty level
Missable (See Man of Honour)
At the end of Chapter 2, you will get the "Choose a Side" mission where you must choose to join either the Resistance, or Honour Grant. Speak to Judy at Charity's bar in order to join the Resistance.
SAVE prior to making this decision if you are on Extreme, you've finished all of the sidequests so far, and you wish to save yourself a second playthrough on the other side.
Man of Honour 20
Finish the game with Honour Grant at any difficulty level
Missable (See Hero of the Resistance)
At the end of Chapter 2, you will get the "Choose a Side" mission where you must choose to join either the Resistance, or Honour Grant. Speak to Devotion, near your base, to join General Honour Grant.
SAVE prior to making this decision if you are on Extreme, you've finished all of the sidequests so far, and you wish to save yourself a second playthrough on the other side.
Good start 5
Upgrade a skill
After your fight with Fatso you will be able to upgrade your character. Tap or go through the menus to reach the skills screen. Pick any of the two available skill trees available right now, and then one of the three available skills in that tree and upgrade it (you get 2 upgrade points per level, so you can upgrade something else now as well). Tough Skin and First Aid are good starting points as this can be a rather difficult game combat wise, and it's unforgiving on Extreme.
Recycling 10
Upgrade an object
After beating up Fatso at the very start of the game, you will quickly run into a fan among the prisoners who will give you a cracked tube (weapon). Tap to reach the menu screen and find the cracked tube in your weapons tab to equip it with and then tap :xbut to bring up the upgrade/modification options. The only slot you can upgrade on this weapon is the handle, and you should have the required items to upgrade the handle with fabric, increasing it's critical hit chance, and unlocking the achievement for you. It's important to keep your items as upgraded as possible to make your life easier on Mars, so make sure you always check containers, scrap piles, and corpses, for new items to upgrade your weapons and armor with (and also to craft items with).
Pest Control 10
Kill 15 moles
Story related, unmissable.
You will get all 15 kills in the Drilling Well area of the Crater while doing the Weapons for the Battle story mission. They aren't overly difficult, aside from attacking you and your two allies in rather large groups, but there are a few explosives that you can loot off of corpses in the caves, and you will also have access to your first ranged weapon - the nailgun. The moles come in several different sizes, with the larger ones obviously being the most difficult, but you can start each fight off by using stealth mode () to open the battle with a powerful attack on the first enemy.
Mentor 30
Influence Innocence's personality during your conversations
All of your secondary companions in the game have some things you can talk to them about while you're out running around with them. In chapters 1 and 2, press near Innocence to talk with him. Do this frequently to make sure you go through all possible discussions with him, and try to pick a side during the discussions (support him, or go against him) to influence him. This will pop alongside Aurora Execution at the end of Chapter 2.
Specialist 30
Unlock every skill and upgrade in a single skill tree
You will need to spend a total of 36 points (18 levels worth) on a single skill tree in order to get this achievement. You will want to do as many sidequests as possible in order to get the desired number of experience points, and you most likely will not be able to max the Technomancy tree out (unless you save points for it), as it will only be available after you finish Chapter 1. Thus, it is important to make a choice early on and focus on upgrading that tree, with putting as few points as possible into the other two trees.
Crowbar 30
Empty 50 containers
Containers little crates/boxes (or containers!) scattered throughout the game that you can open up to find loot that you can then use to craft items and upgrade your weapons and armor. To help your chances of survival you will want to loot as many containers and scrap piles as you can find in the game, and you should have this achievement very early on in Chapter 2.
Completionist 50
Finish all of the secondary quests in Mars: War Logs
Despite the achievement description, it would seem that you do not, in fact, need to complete every secondary quests, only certain quests (it's recommended you do all side quests).
Check out the Completionist thread Schreckofant put together, HERE, for help with this achievement.

U.K. Stocks Rise; Barclays, International Power Shares Advance
U.K. stocks climbed for the first time in five days amid speculation weaker jobs growth in the U.S. will prompt the Federal Reserve to extend efforts to shore up the world's biggest economy.
Barclays Plc and HSBC Holdings Plc gained more than 1 percent, as banks shares led the benchmark FTSE 100 Index higher. International Power Plc climbed 3.7 percent as two people familiar with the matter said GDF Suez SA, France's second-largest utility, may take control of the British company with interests in more than 45 power stations.
The FTSE 100 rallied 78.13, or 1.5 percent, to 5,410.52 at the 4:30 p.m. close of trading in London. The FTSE 100 has rallied 13 percent from this year's low on July 1 as companies reported earnings that topped analysts' estimates and concern eased that the global economy may be tipping back into recession. The gauge is still 7.1 percent below this year's high in April. The FTSE All-Share Index advanced 1.3 percent and Ireland's ISEQ Index gained 1.6 percent today.
"The market has a firm eye on the meeting of the Fed that starts tomorrow," said Joshua Raymond, a markets strategist at City Index Ltd. in London. Investors "are betting that the Fed could start to inject extra stimulus into the markets to help maintain the U.S. economic recovery."
Credit Crisis
Three years ago today, the European Central Bank provided an unprecedented 95 billion euros ($126 billion) as the credit crisis made commercial banks unwilling to lend to each other. A worse-than-forecast drop in U.S. nonfarm payrolls reported last week strengthened speculation that the Fed may announce more stimulus measures to boost growth.
Late last week, Goldman Sachs Group Inc. cut its forecast for U.S. economic growth, saying that the Fed may return to "unconventional" monetary easing as early as this week's policy meeting as the economic recovery continues to lose momentum.
HSBC, the biggest bank in Europe, gained 1.4 percent to 670.7 pence. Barclays climbed 3.2 percent to 335 pence.
International Power gained 3.7 percent to 380 pence. GDF Suez will pay International Power shareholders a special dividend of about 1.3 billion pounds ($2.1 billion) as part of the deal, and GDF will control about two thirds of the enlarged company, said one of the people, who declined to be identified as the talks are private. While the companies are trying to reach a deal before both report earnings on Aug. 10, there's a chance an agreement won't be reached, the people said.
Net Inflows
Schroders Plc, Europe's largest publicly traded fund management company by market value, rallied 4.2 percent to 1,429 pence, the highest level since May 13. BofA Merrill Lynch Global Research increased its price estimate on the shares 26 percent to 1,545 pence after the company last week reported profit and net inflows from investors that rose more than estimated. BP Plc gained 1.7 percent to 432.75 pence for its longest winning streak since before the Deepwater Horizon rig exploded and sank in April. The company said the Macondo well in the Gulf of Mexico is effectively plugged with cement poured last week. BP plans to finish drilling into the base of the well this week so it can pump in mud and cement to permanently plug the source of the world's biggest offshore accidental oil spill.
Petrofac Ltd. gained 1.2 percent to 1,318 pence as it said it won a $430 million contract from Kuwait Oil Co. to build a water injection project to increase oil recovery. Connaught Plc plummeted 29 percent to 11 pence after the Guardian newspaper reported that the crisis-stricken public-housing maintenance company is in talks with lenders over a potential debt-for-equity exchange.

Kindergarten students get lesson in safety
Published: Saturday, October 19, 2002 at 6:01 a.m.
Last Modified: Friday, October 18, 2002 at 11:00 p.m.
KRAEMER - Kindergarteners at Bayou Boeuf Elementary set off sirens Friday as they learned some of the things law-enforcement officers do to help promote safety.
The students finished a week of study on safety with a visit from Deputy Valerie Tombleson with the Lafourche Parish Sheriff's Office.
Five-year-old Cole Dempster said he learned about 911 and "how you use it when it's an emergency and you need help."
"The Sheriff's Office wants to make sure they have the basic safety rules, wear their seatbelts and know how and when to use 911," Tombleson said. "We are here to do whatever it takes to make sure everyone is safe."
She showed the students mace, handcuffs and uniforms, and the children were fascinated by a guardian-angel badge Sheriff Craig Webre issues each of his deputies.
Brad Kraemer Jr., 5, Marlee Landry, 6, and Anaya Tombleson, 5, enjoyed their adventures inside the officer's patrol car and operating the siren.
"My favorite thing was her telling me about everything," said Emily Sanchez, 5. "My dad is an ambulance person and he helps people. I like it when people help others."
Penny Martinez, a kindergarten teacher at Bayou Boeuf, said students have been working all week to learn about home safety, car safety and being able to recognize strangers.
"We want them to know that the policeman is our helper and our friend," Martinez said. "We have been addressing safety rules as to what to do if a stranger tried to take them."
Six-year-old Brandon Rose said she's learned "to hold my mom's hand when I go somewhere."
She also learned about how to deal with strangers.
"I learned to say no to strangers and to kick and scream if someone tries to mess with you," she said. "I also know that if your house is on fire: Call 911."

Very good Derek, although when we travel north to you I think it will be another case of crushing the rebellious scots.
As for the WC, I never said we were going to win it. What I was insinuating is that in time England will develop into a fairly decent side that can compete by the time of the next WC.
Something you scots can only dream of. Other than that, I reckon you're right. Ireland can beat us, France will most likley beat us. But the wooden spoon is all yours hun.

Wind debate might come before recommendation
ST. JOHNSBURY — Some Vermont legislators pushing for moratorium on wind power projects believe a pending recommendation from a commission created to review the sites won't come in time to influence debate on the bill.
The commission's deadline is April 30, with a draft report expected by the end of March.
Sen. John Rodgers on the committee on Energy and Natural Resources says the panel will have already moved on the bill by then.
Rodgers tells the Caledonian-Record he and other senators want a moratorium to study health impacts of the projects and receive recommendations from the commission.
The five-member energy siting commission formed by Gov.

How to get unused Twitter Handle URLs for you

Bloomberg Says He Won't Endorse Anyone for Mayor
Sorry, Joe Lhota.
While Mayor Bloomberg tacitly supported Republican mayoral candidate Joe Lhota in his recent interview with New York by saying he thought the New York Times was "right" to endorse the former MTA chairman in the primary, it seems he will not officially back him — or, unsurprisingly, Bill de Blasio — in the general election. "I don't want to do anything that complicates it for the next mayor, and that's one of the reasons I've decided I'm just not gonna make an endorsement in the race," Bloomberg said during his weekly radio show this morning.
It could be that the mayor has realized his backing could actually hurt Lhota's chances of winning against De Blasio, who beat out his fellow Democrats by marketing himself as the anti-Bloomberg. Or perhaps he doesn't like the idea of attaching his name to what still looks like a very long-shot campaign. Or, in true Bloomberg fashion, he may be withholding his endorsement simply because he doesn't think Lhota is up to the task of succeeding him.

Revenge is a dish best served cold.
In Ann Aguirre's "Mortal Danger," Edie Kramer has a score to settle with the beautiful people at Blackbriar Academy. Their cruelty drove her to the brink of despair, and four months ago, she couldn't imagine being strong enough to face her senior year. But thanks to a Faustian compact with the enigmatic Kian, she has the power to make the bullies pay. She's not supposed to think about Kian once the deal is done, but devastating pain burns behind his unearthly beauty, and he's impossible to forget.
In one short summer, her entire life changes and she sweeps through Blackbriar, prepped to take the beautiful people down from the inside. A whisper here, a look there, and suddenly . . . bad things are happening. It's a head rush, seeing her tormentors get what they deserve, but things that seem too good to be true usually are, and soon, the pranks and payback turns from delicious to deadly. Edie is alone in a world teeming with secrets and fiends lurking in the shadows. In this murky morass of devil's bargains, she isn't sure who or what she can trust. Not even her own mind.
About the Author

She also writes the romantic science fiction series about Sirantha Jax, starting with "Grimspace", as well as urban fantasy and paranormal romance.

CAMP SLAYER, Iraq - Metal detectors, evidence bags, cameras, probes, mirrors, flashlights, shovels and ladders; add a David Caruso look alike and you have the makings of a good CSI: Miami episode.
Actually, at Camp Slayer, on the western edge of Baghdad, these tools make up an improvised explosive device search-kit used during a three-day Tactical Site Exploitation training class taught by the Counter-IED training team here.
Infantrymen, scouts and tankers from 2nd Battalion, 8th Cavalry Regiment, 1st Brigade Combat Team, 1st Cav. Division, ended a three-day class March 10 designed to provide them with more insight into how to search for weapon caches, IEDs, and what to do when they are found.
"For a lot of us, it is our first deployment. We haven't been out in sector and haven't done searches on caches," said Pvt. Tim Vansyckle, an infantryman from Dallas, assigned to the "Stallions" of 2nd Bn., 8th Cav. Regt. "It's helpful to get this training. We can share the information with other privates."
On the first day of class instructors provide Soldiers with the background and theory that must be employed when searching for and finding materials linked to IEDs and caches, said lead instructor, Sgt. 1st Class David Bollinger, a native of Sedgewickville, Mo., assigned to the 52nd Explosive Ordinance Disposal Brigade, Multi-National Corps-Iraq.
"The administration part of the class is good because it gives you a look at what goes on behind the scenes," said Vansyckle.
Soldiers get beyond the classroom on the second day, to training that emphasizes skill development. They practice tactics, techniques and procedures such as tactical questioning, cross-talking, cache characteristics, establishing a command point and cordoning off the search area, said Bollinger.
"Using the actual search-kit gives us an edge," said Vansyckle. "This is the first time for some of us to train on how to search caches. We need to be knowledgeable of how to work with this equipment."
Instructors constantly encourage teamwork among Soldiers while conducting searches.
"Any search needs to be systematic; cross-talking is important, everybody needs to be doing it, maybe your buddy will find something you didn't see," said C-IED instructor, Staff Sgt. Jerry Amis. "With vehicle searches, Soldiers need to be properly situated for tactical questioning."
On the last day of class, Soldiers got the chance to run a complete operation that consisted of clearing and searching a building, a vehicle, and a rural area.
"It is a culmination of everything they have learned," said Bollinger. He and his fellow instructors keep the training as realistic as possible and they don't make the caches too obvious for Soldiers to find.
"They used the roof for one of the caches!" said Sgt. Alexin Cobra, an infantryman, with 2nd Bn., 8th Regt. "Training was beneficial. Instructors were good at pointing out stuff and helping guys' think of new solutions, instead of giving them the answer. They had us reviewing any mistakes."
Bollinger instructs using positive reinforcement, but reminded Soldiers of their mistakes.
"I want them to have hard learning experiences if they miss something. If a Soldier knows his battle buddy could have been hurt because of something he did, he'll be more apt to watch for it next time," said Bollinger.
The class is open for all Soldiers, in order to better guide fellow Coalition forces and Iraqi Security Forces personnel on their mission to creating a safer Iraq. According to Bollinger, "Stallion" troopers are ready to run cache C-IED search battle drills and to integrate these skills into their daily missions outside the wire. It is a train the trainer class, so Soldiers are encouraged to take the knowledge gained and be proactive in their units.
"I've read training books on cache techniques, but I had never done this stuff before," said Spc. Mike Bowers, a forward observer from Atlanta. "Now, I have a much better perspective."

Automobiles equipped with technology that uses a wireless transmitting fob to unlock the vehicle and start the engine, rather than a traditional ignition key, could be stolen by intercepting the signal between the key and the car. Researchers at the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology (ETH) in Zurich say the "smart" keys usually need to be within a few yards of the vehicle for the low-powered signal to tell the car's computer to unlock the doors and enable the ignition.

In 2012 this is really easy. But in 2008 finding the physical nic order is not straightforward. The main thing I was never able to find was PCI SLOT number [Ex. PCI SLOT 2 (bus 1 device 0 function 0)] which is present if there are adapter cards in addition to integrated.
If this is something beneficial to you, let me know and I will post the additional info when I'm on my desktop.
It will get all the NICs, find their order info, store it in a new property, order them, then name them according to their order.
Beware::: evernote likes to add random spaces. If this doesn't work, look for a ill-placed space!!
If you need more clarity on a particular line, let me know. I try to create comments and variables for future users but might not be as clear as I think.
#Acquire NICs PCI Bus Order and rename the nics based on actual order.
$nics = Get-WmiObject Win32_NetworkAdapter
$NicOrder = foreach ($nic in $nics)
$registryKey = Get-Item HKLM:\System\CurrentControlSet\Enum\$($nic. PNPDeviceID)
$keyValues = Get-ItemProperty $registryKey.PSPath
$PCISlot = $keyValues.UINumber
$regSplit = $keyValues.LocationInformation.Split( ";")
$location = $regSplit[ 2].Replace( '(','' ).Replace( ')','' )
$locSplit = $location. Split(",")
$props = @{
"Name" = $nic. NetconnectionID;
"Index" = $Nic.Index;
"PCIslot" = [INT]$PCISlot;
"Bus" = [INT]$locSplit[0];
"Device" = [INT]$locSplit[1];
"Function" = [INT]$locSplit[2];

Kyle KerbyDev\Code\Script -
Context: I'm scripting a dell SUU update (directory style, not ISO). The script powershell, it's initiated as "System" through 'onstart' scheduled task, the script does a component comparison which is a switch in SUU.cmd the suu.cmd utilize java.exe to do its operations of comparing/applying updates.
Problem: when I initiate the script it works fine. When the system is in control it freeze at java.exe. The java.exe is used by the suu.cmd and it just sits in task manager as if it's awaiting input. Again it works if I run the script and it does not ask for input.
Question: any reason script run as system would freeze during java operation when run as system but not the user/admin? Any troubleshooting tips?
But if we need a Savior, only Jesus will do.

Types of Periodontal Disease Treatments
Nowadays, there are different types of periodontal disease treatments available for someone afflicted with the disease. The treatment also depends on the severity of the problem, how someone responded to take care of the problem early on and the overall health condition of your body.
The periodontal disease treatments available for people with periodontal disease range from surgery to bring back the healthiness of the supportive tissues to nonsurgical therapies. There is also the natural or conservative therapy wherein the method of treatment prohibits the use of any antibacterial drugs.
Periodontal Disease Treatments By Surgical Means
The examples of surgical treatments for periodontal disease are:
• Pocket Reduction/Flap Surgery – The procedure for this type of treatment require the gums to be lifted back to removed the tarter. If there is, an irregular surface damaged to the bone that part is smoothed to prevent the bacteria from hiding in these area and further affect the good bones. The gums are placed in a position wherein the tissue will snug tightly to the tooth and the process can significantly reduce size of space between the tooth and gum, in doing so the areas where bacteria can develop are limited to decrease the risk of further health problems arising from periodontal disease.
• Bone grafts – This treatment involve the use of a fragment of one's own bone, donated or synthetic bone to replace the bones already destroyed by the disease. The bone graft will act as a platform so the bone could re-grow to bring back the stability of the teeth.
• Soft Tissue Graft – The process for this periodontal disease treatment reinforces the thin fills or gums that have receded. The grafted tissue taken from one's own roof mouth is stitch into place where the tissue has been plague by the disease.
• Bone surgery – If there is an advanced loss of bone after flap surgery, another periodontal disease treatments then bone surgery now recommended. The bone will need reshaping to decrease the craters and make it harder for the bacteria to grow and accumulate.
• Guided Tissue Regeneration – This treatment is performed when the supporting bone has been destroyed already.
Take note, surgical treatments are suggested only when the tissue around the teeth cannot be treated by nonsurgical means.
Periodontal Disease Treatments By Non surgical Means
• Dental Cleaning – This treatment is possible to undertake anytime, usually during regular check up or twice a year. The dentist will remove the tartar and plaque that builds up around the tooth surface and below the gum line.
• Root Planing and Scaling – The treatment require anesthesia as the procedure entail scraping away the tartar and plaque below and above the gums. The rough spots are also smooth to remove bacteria and ensure the cleanliness of the teeth and gums.
Conservative Therapy or Natural Periodontal Disease Treatments
Periodontal disease is reversible and so there is no reason not to try periodontal disease treatments that does not require surgery and costly procedure. These days, you can also treat periodontal disease by using special toothpaste like Nature's Smile gum balm.
The gum balm from It can also quickly stop bleeding gums and other symptoms of Nature's Smile can destroy the bacteria that primarily cause the disease. gum disease. Reversing the gums that have receded already is also possible as well as reducing the size of the pockets cause by the Gum disease.
The gum balm can be use with other toothpaste and safe to use because it contains no harsh chemical. It is ideal not just for treating the problem but also for preventing, the disease so there is no reason to undertake costly periodontal disease treatments.

Most Leave Me Shaking And Close To Tears...Most of my dreams involve me and a couple close friends in a post apocalyptic situation where there's nothing but desert and a building or two. More recently, they've been taking place at my school. It's been overrun by demons, there's been a shooting, and sometimes even rape. Those are the nightmares that scare me the most.
I wake up sweating and breathing heavy, like I've been running. Sometimes I wake up crying or close to screaming.
I never sleep all the way through the night, I almost always wake up at 1 or 2 am from a nightmare. Somehow, I'm able to fall into a dreamless sleep. For about a month, if I sleep, it's either nightmares or no dreams at all...
AngelxOfxInsanity 18-21, F 2 Responses 2 Sep 23, 2012
Dreams have themes that represent what you're struggling with in your waking life. Whatever is scaring you in life needs serious attention. when you solve the problem there, the nightmares ought to slow down and stop. :(
why dont you tell your doctor or somthing? not your family but someone?
wow.......i swear if i knew where you lived and i had evidence of your basterd family (not trying to offend you, jsut talking about the people who hurt you in your family) i would kill them all....no one deserves what they put you through....they should all die in hell

John Ian Robert Russell, 13th Duke of Bedford (24 May 1917 – 25 October 2002), styled Lord Howland until 1940 and Marquess of Tavistock between 1940 and 1953, was a British peer and writer.
Background and education[edit]
Russell was the son of Hastings Russell, 12th Duke of Bedford. He had a very strained relationship with his father and grandfather, who during his early years refused to give him the allowance he felt would be appropriate for a future Duke; his father eventually tied up most of the Bedford fortune in trust so that he could not borrow against it.[1]
The 13th Duke was known in his youth as Ian, with the courtesy title Lord Howland. In 1940 his father succeeded to the dukedom and Lord Howland acquired the courtesy title Marquess of Tavistock.
Russell started his career as a rent collector in 1938, in Stepney. He then joined the Coldstream Guards in 1939 and fought in the Second World War between 1939 and 1940, but left the army after being invalided. He then turned to journalism and became a reporter for the Daily Express in 1940. He published:
- A Silver-Plated Spoon (1959)
- The Duke of Bedford's Book of Snobs (1965)
- The Flying Duchess (1968)
- How to Run a Stately Home (1971)
Russell was the first Duke of Bedford to open Woburn Abbey up to the public, a move that alienated him from many of his peers.[2]
He was named to the International Best Dressed List Hall of Fame in 1985.[3]
Bedford married Clare Gwendolen (née Bridgman) Hollway (1903–1945) on 6 April 1939. She died of a drug overdose in 1945. They had two children:
- Henry Robin Ian Russell, 14th Duke of Bedford (1940–2003)
- Lord Rudolf Russell (b. 7 March 1944)
On 13 February 1947, Lord Tavistock married as his second wife, Lydia Lyle (born 17 October 1917 – died 25 July 2006), daughter of John Yarde-Buller, 3rd Baron Churston and the former Denise Orme, and widow of Capt. Ian Archibald de Hoghton Lyle (1909–1942), heir to a baronetcy; she had two children by her first marriage. They were divorced in 1960. They had one child:
- Lord Francis Hastings Russell (b. 27 February 1950)
Bedford married, thirdly, Nicole (Schneider) Milinaire (29 June 1920 – 7 September 2012) on 4 September 1960. There were no children from this marriage.
Bedford and his third wife became tax exiles in 1974, leaving the United Kingdom and eventually settling in Monaco. Bedford died in Santa Fe, New Mexico, in 2002.[4]
