Why, after a system scan, does SW say I have Adobe 8.1.2 or Adobe 7.0 on my machine, when in fact, I have Adobe 9.0? This is happening with several of the machines I am monitoring/scanning with Spiceworks. It also happens with last user login.

Is it possible that those machines were scanned successfully when that was the version installed and are now failing to scan so you are only seeing the data from the last successful scan?

MBA Specializations & How to Choose One | ARINGO consultants are the top in the world!
The Different Types of MBA Specializations
An MBA is typically a two-year program that aims to make the student proficient in various subjects of management and an expert for one. In the first year of an MBA the main focus is on giving students a brief idea about various subjects of management. Towards the end of the first year students are introduced to the specialized areas.
In the second year of an MBA, students have to choose one specialization from the variety of specializations available. This is not applicable if students have gained admission to a specialized course. Choosing a specialization can be a difficult process for students. It is very important for student to consider their career goals and professional development before choosing a specialization.
Students have the opportunity to either pursue a general management program or complete a specialization as part of the MBA program. Specializations are a matter of choice, not a prerequisite, and all students receive the same MBA education regardless of whether or not they complete a specialization. Students should consider their career goals and professional development in settling on a specialization.
Listed below are the most common MBA specializations:
A very important focus of the general management MBA degree is leadership. This MBA involves rigorous training, a variety of assignments, reports, presentations, and group projects, all of which are geared to equip the future manager with the necessary abilities to deal with real-life business situations.
A strategy MBA focuses on the skills and knowledge needed to develop the business strategy that enables managers to diagnose situations, make strategic choices and execute their plans and objectives. A strategy MBA prepares you to work in strategic consulting, general management and strategic finance roles. While these jobs require the perspective of a generalist, you also need to know how to create superior performance in a competitive environment. This is why you need to have knowledge of marketing, finance or operations and how these things support a strategy. General managers will also need to have strong leadership skills in order to supervise and work with their teams effectively.
IT graduates play essential roles on the business team, typically designing and implementing hardware and software solutions to business problems. They hold professional positions in areas such as client/server or web applications development, systems analysis and network administration.
As is the case in many key industries, MBA graduates tend to be recruited by the pharmaceutical sector as much for their potential as for any specific previous experience, although academic training in the sciences or a background in such areas as sales or marketing can sometimes prove to be an advantage. There are huge opportunities for MBA graduates in the health care field, and most of them pay very well. With an MBA in healthcare, one can find a good, well-paying position in a biomedical startup, e-health, consulting or pharmaceutical and medical device R&D.
An accounting MBA readies students for the CPA exam and jobs in business accounting administration. Students gain skills to become accountants, financial managers, auditors, and more.
Telecommunications have made huge leaps forward in the past two decades. It is one of the fastest growing industries in the world. The emphasis is on the value added services, such as e-mail, cellular phones, WAP etc in developed countries and in improving basic telephone availability in developing countries. This sector plays a key role in encouraging growth in the industrial and services sector.
How to Choose an MBA Specialization
MBA programs come in all shapes and sizes, but most prospective students play it safe and go for finance, marketing, or management. One of the main reasons for this is that they do not fully investigate the diversity of specializations out there. This is a great shame, because only once a student knows the full range of MBA options available, can they select the one that best fits their career goals.
As more and more universities offer MBA programs, it is becoming ever more difficult for candidates to decide on which business school offers the most suitable MBA program to meet their requirements. Many business schools are deviating from the 'generalist' system, which has been the typical MBA model for the last thirty years. Today one can choose from a wide range of MBA specializations, ranging from an MBA in financial studies, as well as insurance and risk management accountancy and finance, to an MBA in sports management, or even an MBA in technology.
The standard specializations are marketing, finance, human resources, IT/IS, operations and entrepreneurship; but these are rapidly being joined by more specific subjects, such as corporate social responsibility, wine management, football industries, luxury brand management, hotel management, etc.
How should students go about deciding which specialization is best for them? There are a number of ways that individuals can easily make that decision and get on the road to earning a specialized MBA that pays off in the long run. Here are some things to consider:
After considering the above factors, start researching MBA programs and specializations. While new fields are arising, most schools have several standard specializations. Look at notable programs with lists of specializations that interest you. Most universities will include a list of their MBA specializations, or concentrations, on their websites. Ask for information from schools that interest you. In some cases, you may ask to meet with the professors who teach the specialization that interests you, which may help you in your decision to choose a certain field or university. Schedule an appointment with your university department or program advisor, if you are currently enrolled. Your advisor may be able to offer some insight on your options based on your strengths and weaknesses.

Mercury Baroques Messiah
Its been a few years since Houstons favorite period ensemble, Mercury Baroque, performed Handels Messiah. That performance prompted music critic Charles Ward to say the piece was performed as it was meant to be. Well, we hope Ward doesnt mind repeating himself, because once again Mercury Baroque is performing the work in its entirety and on period instruments, in what Mercury Baroque founder and conductor Antoine Plante says is as it was played when it was first performed way back in 1742. Soprano Ana Treviño--Godfrey, tenor Karim Sulayman and the Houston Chamber Choir join members of the Mercury Baroque orchestra for the concert. 7 p.m. today Wortham Center, 500 Texas. For tickets and information, call 713-533-0080 or visit www.mercury-baroque.org. $32 to $59. Second concert tomorrow at University of Houston Clear Lake, Bayou Theater, 2700 Bay Area Boulevard.

Top 5 ommitted HOFers
This is my list of the top 5 players who arent in the Hall of Fame in the order of most deserving. Oh and by the way, surprise, surprise Neely isnt the 1st!
In order of most deserving:
#1 Rogie Vachon - I have no idea why he inst in the Hall. This may raise a few eyebrows as to him being #1 but think about it. He won the Vezina Trophy in '68, was second team all-star twice, in '75 and '77 and to top it off he had 355 wins. In comparison Terry Sawchuk had 447. He also won three Cups. Plus he played on some mediocre Kings teams and still put up good numbers. And who was in stellar in net for every game for Canada in the '76 Canada Cup? Vachon.
#2 Glenn Anderson - What more does the guy have to do? 6 playoff overtime goals? A known clutch goal scorer. 6 Cups. 498 goals. Scored 50 twice in his career. Had 100 points three times in his career. No all-star selections at Right Wing but that was more because Bossy and Kurri were there. I say put him in there no question.
#3 Rick Middleton - 5 straight years of 90 points or more, another season with 86. Scored 50 goals once, 100 points twice. Good playoff numbers. To me he's above Neely as to a guy who has to be in there. No Cups, but he played in his share of Cup finals.
#4 Cam Neely - Okay everyone stop screaming, this is why he isnt above the rest of them. Look I love Neely, very good player. And if he was in the Hall I wouldnt make a fuss, but what bothers me is the people that are willing to die just to see him in there. Why? He had 4, count them, 4 good seasons in his career. that was '88, '90, '91 and '94. Everything else is nothing to write home about. He had four second team all-star selections all in those years. That's good but is it great? I feel bad that his career was cut short, but if a guy loses his career to injuries do we put him in just because of that? If so why dont we put Geoff Courtnall in? If he gets in its not a big deal, but to all you Homers out there, face it, there are better guys than him not in there.
#5 John Tonelli - He won four Cups fo the Isles, and was the MVP of the Canada Cup in '84. He played two way Hockey very well and was twice named second all-star team. Put up 100 points once and 93 another time. My feeling is that if Clark Gilles got in there ahead of him then Tonelli should be in there. To me he was a better player.
That's it. That is my top 5. Deabte over it all you want and make up your own list.
HM goes to other guys - Dino Ciccarelli, Rick Martin, Dave Taylor, Pete Mahovolich.
Paul Henderson also
Claude Provost would be my #1
1- Claude Provost- The top defensive forward on both the Montreal dynasties of the late 50s and late 60s; was better at shutting down Hull than anyone else, yet also contributed offensively.
2- Paul Thompson- Some research I`ve done shows him to have been a very underrated player stuck on a bad team; was actually the top scorer in the NHL over a five-year span (got that info from the trivia thread).
3- Johnny Gottselig- Same era and team as Thompson; was surprised to find out he`s not in the HHOF.
4- Lionel Hitchman- Eddie Shore`s defense partner, whose steady play enabled Shore to take so many chances; was overlooked by everyone but Boston who retired his number.
5- Dean Prentice- very consistent scorer who had the misfortune to be stuck on a lot of crappy teams.
1- Rogie Vachon- For all the reasons mentioned in the first post. I agree completely and couldn`t have said it better.
2- Mark Howe- I don`t get it. Consistently one of the best defencemen in the league, strong in all three zones, a 3-time 1st All-Star (more than Savard, Howell, LaPointe, Langway and Salming among others)and came back from one of the most horriffic injuries ever.
3- Rick Middleton- once again for the reasons mentioned in the first post.
4- Guy Carbonneau- Patrick Roy was the main reason Montreal won the Cup in `93, but Carbonneau was a close second for all the things that never show up on the score sheet.
5- Cam Neely- a first-class jerk, but also a first-rate right-winger, arguably the best at that position in his prime, and also gave extra at playoff time.
Guys who don`t deserve to be there
Dino Ciccarelli
Glenn Anderson
Brian Bellows
Bernie Nicholls
Dale Hunter
Kevin Lowe
Sergei Makarov
John Vanbiesbrouck
Paul Henderson
Mike Liut
Players who`re close but no cigar
Butch Goring
John Tonelli
Craig Ramsay
Kelly Hrudey
Brian Propp
Players who deserve to make it, but won`t get selected when they`re eligible
Eric Lindros
Theoren Fleury
I think Fleury has a shot. He had a Bernie Federko-like career.
Pete Mahovlich for the reasons in another thread. I agree with the first post especially Neely and Vachon.
Bobby Smith
Steve Larmer (retired at 33, could've easily stuck around longer and compiled his stats)
Definitely Rogie Vachon and Mark Howe. Two of the best. Of the rest I've seen (Provost on), I wouldn't pick anyone else. I think there are too many marginal HOFers in already.
I'm not sure I'd put Guy Carbonneau in the HOF. Yes, he was a great defensive forward, and he won a bunch of Selke Trophies and 3 Stanley Cups, but I'm really not sure if that makes him Hall worthy. I mean, would Jere Lehtinen be a candidate for the Hall of Fame? Also, I think Carbonneau's career was pretty undistinguished for the last 5 or 6 years of his career when he was just a bottom six checker.
Valeri Kharlamov, Alexander Yakushin, and Sergei Makarov all belong in the HHOF. Each dominated international hockey in their primes, and each stood out as stars against NHL competition.
Mark Howe is to me the most obvious North American bypassed. Norris finalist, First-team All-star on multiple occasions, huge career numbers when you combine his NHL and WHA statistics. Plus, like Red Kelly, he was one of the only players ever to excel both as an elite forward and an elite defender.
Paul Thompson would be a fine selection from the Veteran's committee for a forgotten star. Provost should be in if Bob Pulford is in.
Guy Carbonneau is one of the best defensive forwards ever, and should go in IMO.
Vachon is kinda dubious to me. Listing Vezinas and Cups make him look better than he actually was - the Vezina was when it was for team GAA, and was earned backing up Gump Worsley. The Cups were backing up Worsley and Dryden. Vachon had a nice run with the Kings 1973-78, but was never a first-team All-star, and never won more than 4 playoff games in a year. Only won more than 30 games in his career twice. I guess he could make it, but I understand why he hasn't. Comparable career to Vanbiesbrouck, Vernon.
This list should begin and end with JC Tremblay. I always wonder if he was black listed because he left the Habs and joined the Nordiques in the WHA. He was one of the best d-men in the game when he left, and if he had stayed, the Habs would have had the big 4, not the big 3. He was every bit the defenseman Savard or Lapointe were.
Anyways, that team he was on is already inducted.
I'll take Mark Howe and Brian propp over all 5 of those players, and I wouldn't induct any of them.
No knock on Paul, but the '72 team was voted the Team of the Century and is already in as a whole in the HOF. That should be good enough.

Get the Wolves newsletter
18:23 19th November 2011
Everton 2 (Jagielka 44, Baines-pen 83)
Wolves 1 (Hunt-pen 37)
A controversial penalty in the dying minutes condemned Wolves to defeat against Everton, this after Mick McCarthy's men had taken the lead at Goodison Park, also from the spot.
Wolves kicked-off defending the half of Goodison Park that housed the travelling support. There was just one change to the starting X1 with Nenad Milijaš replacing Adlene Guedioura.
Wayne Hennessey cut out a Royston Drenthe cross at the near post but it was an otherwise eventless opening quarter-of-an-hour.
The first real chance of the game fell to Louis Saha after Tim Cahill had nodded Seamus Coleman's cross into his path. The striker hit his shot into the floor but Hennessey reacted superbly to tip the ball over the bar.
David Edwards was hurt after a challenge by Leon Osman. The midfielder landed awkwardly on his shoulder but he was able to continue after treatment.
On 20 minutes Richard Stearman was penalised for obstructing Leighton Baines. Saha's free-kick was cleared upfield to Kevin Doyle whose charge towards goal was halted by Phil Jagielka at the expense of giving Wolves their first corner of the game. Jamie O'Hara's kick was headed clear.
Baines took the ball to the by-line before delivering a low centre that was knocked away by Hennessey with Roger Johnson completing the clearance. The Wolves skipper was then in the right place to block Saha's shot on the turn in Everton's next attack.
The visitors moved ahead in the 37th minute after Marouane Fellaini had clipped Edwards just inside the Everton box. Stephen Hunt took the spot kick and he made no mistake blasting the ball straight down the middle as Tim Howard dived to his left (pictured).
But it took the Merseysiders just seven minutes to pull level. Stearman fouled Cahill and when Baines lifted the free-kick into the box, Jagielka charged in to plant a header past Hennessey.
From the restart Drenthe went onto a run into the Wolves box but as he was about to shoot Christophe Berra got back to make a superb tackle.
Deep into stoppage time Tony Hibbert's free-kick ran to Fellaini and his shot drew a fine save from Hennessey. But the keeper couldn't hold on to the ball and there were loud appeals for a penalty after Karl Henry appeared to pull back Cahill.
Half-Time: Everton 1 Wolves 1
Hennessey made a good challenge with his legs to clear from Baines who had broken into the left of the Wolves area, and then Fellaini shot high over the bar from 20-yards out.
Disaster struck for Stearman in the 56th minute after he had fallen from a heavy mid-air challenge by Cahill. The defender looked to be in agony and the physio immediately signalled that he would be unable to continue. In obvious distress, he was eventually helped off with a wrist injury to be replaced by George Elokobi.
The Cameroon defender moved into the left-back slot with Stephen Ward moving across to take Stearman's place.
With 20 minutes remaining the combined efforts of Ward and Hennessey thwarted Saha who had chested down a Coleman cross and fired at goal from close in. Ward threw himself in front of the ball and Hennessey quickly snapped up the loose ball in front of Cahill. The chance had been set up by Drenthe, who appeared to have fouled Ward in the build-up, and Henry found himself booked for dissent for suggesting so afterwards.
Berra then cut out Drenthe's pull back as Everton upped the pressure, and Hunt joined Henry in the book for a foul on Fellaini.
Howard had to dive low in his six-yard box to gather Edward's driven centre before Matt Jarvis was sent on in place of Milijaš.
Seven minutes from time the home side took what was to be a winning lead. There didn't seem to be much contact as Saha and Ward went for a Baines cross but the Everton man went down and the referee awarded the spot kick with Baines sending Hennessey the wrong way to the delight of the home supporters. Before play re-started Jamie O'Hara became the third Wolves player booked for dissent.
Steven Fletcher replaced Edwards for the last few minutes and he did get in one low long-range shot but it drifted well wide.
Then there was a chance for O'Hara in stoppage time with a free-kick after Baines had earned himself a yellow card for felling Hunt a couple of yards outside the box. O'Hara curled the ball over the wall but narrowly wide of the far post.
Everton: Howard, Hibbert, Baines, Heitinga, Jagielka (capt), Saha (Stracqualursi 90+4), Drenthe (Bilyaletdinov 85), Cahill (Vellios 73), Osman, Coleman, Felaini.
Unused subs: Mucha, Gueye, Barkley, Mustafi.
Booking: Baines (90+1 foul).
Wolves: Hennessey, Stearman (Elokobi 59), Ward, Edwards (Fletcher 85), Berra, Johnson (capt), Milijaš (Jarvis 80), Henry, Doyle, O'Hara, Hunt.
Unused subs: Craddock, Ebanks-Blake, De Vries, Guedioura.
Booking: Henry (70 - dissent). Hunt (72 - dissent). O'Hara (84 - dissent).
Referee: J. Moss.
Attendance: 33,593.
Stoke Academy Under 18s 0 Wolves 2 (Ismail, Kempton)
Connor Ronan admits that he isn't expecting to walk into the first team just because he has made first team appearances this season.
Academy goalkeeping coach, Aled Williams, looks back on how the season went for the Wolves Academy goalkeepers.
Dan Copnall says there were plenty of positives to take from the Under 18's final game of the season, despite losing 2-1 away at Brighton & Hove Albion.
The Wolves Under 18s confirmed the Merit League title with one game to spare as they beat Newcastle United last weekend.
Scott Sellars is remaining upbeat despite his Under 23's 5-4 penalty-shootout defeat to Leamington FC in the final of the Birmingham Senior Cup on Wednesday.

Chapter III
Standing in on the porch that led up to the building, was a man. He had blonde hair and brown eyes, just like Maggie's. After seeing Master in the building, he walked a couple steps back from the boy. He was scared of everyone ever since his daughter was kidnapped from the park.
"Who are you?" The Master snapped, making Maggie's father step back again.
"I'm Tom." He said cautiously.
Maggie, after hearing the name of her father, looked over the boy's shoulder at their visitor. Her eyes widened as they met her scared father's.
"What are you doing here, Dad?" She asked.
The Master grabbed Maggie's wrist and pulled her behind him to conceal her. It was easy, Maggie was very tiny and petite. "This is your father?" He whispered and she nodded. He turned back to the strucken man.
"You're Maggie's father?"
"Then, come in. There's buisness to discuss." Master pulled Tom inside.

Os 2 Faróis: Dois faróis com menos de 3 quilômetros de distância, mas tão radicalmente diferentes em caráter. Quando você se aproxima Tybee Island, você vê o impressionante Tybee Luz na distância. Alto, moreno e bonito com uma compoteira branco. Ele foi homenageado um par de anos atrás, quando ele tem seu próprio selo postal. (Em círculos farol que é semelhante a um Oscar.) Mas, então, como você atravessar a ponte Lazareto em Tybee Island, você olha para baixo para a esquerda e piscar. É que um farol na água? Na verdade, é. Isso é valente pouco Farol Cockspur. Exposto, alvenaria branco liso. Não chamativo em tudo, exceto ... Em cada maré alta Cockspur está no oceano bem off-shore. Só na maré baixa é que o esporão rochoso parecer que apoia o farol pequeno. A fundação da empresa, afinal.
Perdido nos anos 40/50: Até agora, a zona comercial pitoresca perto do cais tem praticamente escapou da bola de demolição. Testemunha Arby --- único restaurante fast food de Tybee Island. Isso é muito bonito o que Arby parecia quando eles começaram no início dos anos 60. Como para fazer compras, não Sak está aqui. Estamos falando de Praia Shopping: T-shirt, lembranças, Sno-Cones, bebidas guarda-chuva, frutos do mar. Mas lembre-se, para a cultura e compras, não é colorido, histórico Savannah, apenas 20-25 minutos de distância. Leitura recomendada: Meia-Noite no Jardim do Bem e do Mal, um olhar divertido em alta e baixa vida de Savannah (cerca de 2 anos na lista dos mais vendidos de não-ficção do New York Times).
Coral House está localizado a cerca de meados de praia entre a Praia do Sul (casa do cais e compras) e da praia norte (casa do majestoso Tybee Luz e da ex-Ft. Screven, agora um museu).
My kids and I truly enjoyed staying here. It was super close to the beach and the perfect size for us. The inside was cute and well stocked. My only con would be the floor was dirty. I am sure it is hard to keep it clean with beach, etc. but the minute we walked barefoot on it our feet were black. I would just maybe recommend a deep clean to the floors once a month. Other than that it was great. :)
The condo was cute, clean and conveniently located.
The property was clean and adequately maintained. We were expecially pleased with the location and its close proximity to the beach and to several restaurants. The house was fine for four people, but more than that would be crowded. We were a little disappointed in the front patio; it was not clean and needed some updating. Overall, it was a good selection and we would recommend it to family and friends and possibly stay there again.
The apartment was misleading, very small my husband is a house builder and house painter. He said the whole apartment was about 300 sq. feet. It needed a paint job. The location was great. We were there for R.& R, We could walk to the beach, there were 3 great eater, and stores, so that was great. It was great that the owner had beach chairs and umbrella and cooler for each apt. however there was only 2 carts for hauling them with 4 apts. We did get to use the cart once. Having a washer & dryer with detergent free to use was a great thing. When booking if I would have know that I would not be able to check in until 3 pm and check out at 10 am I would not have booked. That is just loosing a day but that is me. The size of the apt. worked for my family, my husband, son, and myself are small people. The bed was small the sofa bed was small I don't think they were queen.The picture of the bedroom showed a T.V. , There was none, however the TV in the living room/dinning room/ kitchen was huge and we enjoyed it. We were able to get clean towels when needed and that was great. Being a apt. and not hotel the owner had everything we needed in the laundry room.
We enjoyed our stay so much we called and asked to stay one more night....
We booked this beach location for a girls weekend. The coral house looked adorable. We rented the Banana room. I have nothing nice to say other then the location was perfect. The AC filters had 1/4 inch thick layer of dirt. The drawers in the kitchen are broke. The fronts just fall off. The refrigerator was super gross and not cleaned. The fake trees are a cute addition to give it a tropical look, tons of dust and grime all over them. I can only imagine the amount of dirt floating around! The pull out couch is rough... Really rough. Do not plan on having an extra person sleep on it, it's unsanitary. We only stayed one night, we couldn't believe the condition of the place based on what we paid. We were there for maybe 15 hours and paid more then $400. We stayed one night and drove back to Florida the following morning. I contacted the owner stating the issues and asking for a refund based on the uncleanliness. He said he would look into it and get back with me. I waited 2 days and reached out. He said he would need to inspect the property. I had previously sent him about 8 pictures showing the filth. However between the time of my initial complaint and him waiting for an inspection the unit had been cleaned again. As a solution the owner offered to refund the cleaning fee.... Only the cleaning fee. I expressed that that wasn't a satisfactory solution and was then told he retracted the offer to refund the cleaning fee. To say I am disappointed is an understatement. I wish there was an option to post the pictures I took while there. I'll be loading them onto face book and hoping some people save there hard earned money and spend it elsewhere.

DJ Style Custom Kicks: Nike LeBron X 'Tommy Boy' Customs By Revive [Photo]
*Tommy Boy Entertainment was created in 1981 in a NYC basement for $5,000 by Tommy "Boy" Silverman. It merged with Warner Bros. and brought along mass distribution of underground hip-hop and recognition through its trademark logo in the 1980's to the 1990's. Silverman started with his disco news bi-weekly publication later titled (Dance Music Report) that spanned 14 years starting in 1978… hence the dancing man logo.
The first in line out of the "For Promotional Use Only" REVIVE CUSTOMS, Nike LeBron X "Tommy Boy" evokes the true DJ in all of us! These DJ style custom kicks combine the classic Nike Lebron X covered with the vintage "Tommy Boy" logo or nostalgic dancing disco man in black on a white background with maroon red arrows. The brighter red Nike Swoosh and tongue and lip bring out the Heat, maintaining the same colors as the Nike Lebron X and Lebron's team, the NBA Miami Heat!

Sarah Palin is the top religion newsmaker in 2010 to many Faith & Reason readers, not the N.Y. imam who wants to build an Islamic center near Ground Zero or Pope Benedict XVI, leader of more than one billion Catholics.
Palin is no pastor, priest or imam. But the TV talk/reality star ex-governor author infuses all her speeches and her two best-sellers with references to God and a vision of the United States as exceptionally blessed -- if Americans follow the path of Christian faith.
And this, presumably, is how she has garnered 26% of readers' votes in my little straw poll in yesterday's Faith & Reason.
I presented the cases for Palin, and several other contenders including Benedict and Imam Abdul Feisal Rauf (both tied at 23%), Glenn Beck (9%) and Rev. Franklin Graham (7%) and even the politician who brought paganism into the mid-term election limelight, Christine O'Donnell (4%)
Several readers (9%) chose to write in their own suggestions.
Palin has her newest book, America By Heart, on store shelves making her case daily.
Rauf is about to tour the country explaining how the Park51 project, a center modeled on New York's 92nd Street Y's community programming but with an Islamic prayer room built in.
Religion Newswriters Association (the journalists, including me, who cover the beat) picked Rauf as Newsmaker of the Year and the top story of the year was the national debate on religious freedom prompted by the Park 51 plan (and the pastor who threatened to burn the Quran in protest).
And the world watches every word Benedict has to say on living moral lives before God. His actions past and present on quelling the worldwide clergy sexual abuse crisis are under constant scrutiny as well.
So now I'm curious.
Palin sailed past the most influential and controversial religious leaders in 2010, what would happen if I eliminated the obvious also-rans like "I-am-not-a-witch" O'Donnell and Glenn Beck and Rev. Franklin Graham? Hence a run-off poll today.
But I hope you'll tell us (in your most civil tones) why you voted as you did. What makes someone a "religion newsmaker"?

Treatment with the antileukemic agent asparaginase can induce acute pancreatitis, but the pathophysiology remains obscure. In the liver of mice, eukaryotic initiation factor 2 (eIF2) kinase general control nonderepressible 2 (GCN2) is essential for mitigating metabolic stress caused by asparaginase. We determined the consequences of asparaginase treatment on the pancreata of wild-type (WT, GCN2-intact) and GCN2-deleted (ΔGcn2) mice. Mean pancreas weights in ΔGcn2 mice treated with asparaginase for 8 days were increased (P < 0.05) above all other groups. Histological examination revealed acinar cell swelling and altered staining of zymogen granules in ΔGcn2, but not WT, mice. Oil Red O staining and measurement of pancreas triglycerides excluded lipid accumulation as a contributor to acini appearance. Instead, transmission electron microscopy revealed dilatation of the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) and accumulation of autophagic vacuoles in the pancreas of ΔGcn2 mice treated with asparaginase. Consistent with the idea that loss of GCN2 in a pancreas exposed to asparaginase induced ER stress, phosphorylation of protein kinase R-like ER kinase (PERK) and its substrate eIF2 was increased in the pancreas of asparaginase-treated ΔGcn2 mice. In addition, mRNA expression of PERK target genes, activating transcription factors 4, 3, and 6 (Atf4, Atf3, and Atf6), fibroblast growth factor 21 (Fgf21), heat shock 70-kDa protein 5 (Hspa5), and spliced Xbp1 (sXbp1), as well as pancreas mass, was elevated in the pancreas of asparaginase-treated ΔGcn2 mice. Furthermore, genetic markers of oxidative stress [sirtuin (Sirt1)], inflammation [tumor necrosis factor-α (Tnfα)], and pancreatic injury [pancreatitis-associated protein (Pap)] were elevated in asparaginase-treated ΔGcn2, but not WT, mice. These data indicate that loss of GCN2 predisposes the exocrine pancreas to a maladaptive ER stress response and autophagy during asparaginase treatment and represent a genetic basis for development of asparaginase-associated pancreatitis.

Two resignations and a subpar last season later and Will Muschamp is at the helm of the Gators and has had his own bumpy ride of a first year. Leading up to this season however, Lerentee McCray thinks everyone is starting to figure each other out. "The second year has definitely been better under Muschamp," McCray said at SEC media days a couple of weeks ago. "We definitely have a feel with what he wants, what to expect, and that is to win. That is the common goal for everybody."
There has had to be a mentality change among the ranks. From a roster that was depleted with numbers from transfers and players kicked out of the program, the changes have come with a group that is starting to get just what the Muschamp staff is trying to instill in them.
"We know what not to do," he said. "We know we have to do something different and we talked about that this offseason as far as chemistry… we are more physical and stronger. We are doing all the things it takes to be great in this league."
Chemistry has been a problem and the head coach is doing what he can to change that locker room. There have been quite a few transfers including several players kicked from the team that were masked as transfers… all for the sake of the team. This is something new to the program.
"It is definitely different with Coach Muschamp," he said. "He has handled it well with letting guys transfer and negotiating that and keeping it in house. He has done a great job with that."
McCray also thinks people will see a lot different Muschamp than the one that has been blowing up the officials and players on the sideline. A lot of the change McCray said, will come from a better season all around.
"(He's a) family oriented guy and is going to bring a lot of rah-rah and a lot of energy and passion to the game," he said about Muschamp's demeanor on the sideline. "I think he will do a lot better controlling that so you won't see quite as much.
"He got wild depending on the games. The games are going to be different, they are going to be fun. We are going to win. He was on the edgy side because we weren't winning. This year it will be a more fun experience."
McCray also knows the last couple of years have been hard on the guys that paid their dues for a program and won a lot of games to put Florida on a pedestal in the past. "For the alumni, it's disheartening to see your alma mater not doing as well as when you were there," McCray said. "We have to keep that up."
McCray also thinks physically and athletically the Gators aren't far behind for competing for an SEC East championship. The underdog role is something that has the Gators a little motivated this offseason.
"I feel like we were neck and neck with those guys," he said. "I think if it weren't for a couple of mistakes, we could have won at least half more of the games we lost. WE are definitely an underdog and ranked lower than those guys. We will come out with a chip on our shoulder and play physical.
"We like being the underdog. We want to surprise everybody because everyone doubts us.
"We have been working extremely hard. The leaders and I have been trying to get everyone to go the extra mile, do the extra rep to do what it takes to win."
After a home game with Bowling Green, the Gators have to jump into the fire early and play Texas A&M and Tennessee on the road. To start the season. It will be the Aggies first SEC game as a member of the conference and no doubt the home town fans will be at the top of their game. Then the 100,000 plus Vols fans in Knoxville is never an easy crowd to play in front of.
"We have to start fast, that is the main thing you want to do. I think with our team chemistry and our experience I think we are going to start fast. We have the complete tools to be great.
"That is one of the biggest things we talked about this offseason. Bowling Green, Texas A&M, and Tennessee, we start fast and start physical."
The defense finished eighth in the country in the 'total defense' category. That was a lofty standard playing alongside an offense that helped them little to none. However, they know the one place they must get better is creating turnovers and McCray thinks that will happen in 2012.
"We will definitely get more turnovers," he said. "Our defensive line is stronger and our team as a whole is stronger. We will definitely be more physical, we will compete better with bigger teams, and have more speed as well.
"We have been doing a lot of different drills. In order to do it in a game we have to practice it."
Increased turnovers should be a direct reflection on the play of the guys up front. Pressure up front and big hits are going to force loose balls and bad passes. With that in mind McCray says things are getting better and some guys will step up. One of those is Dominique Easley who is recovering from knee surgery and the other is McCray himself.
"Easley has been working out with us this summer," McCray said. "He is coming back off his injury pretty well. He has been doing drills with us and poised to have a great year this year. I am 100%."
With Ronald Powell injured and out till near the end of the season there is work to do at the BUCK position. McCray is one of many that will try their hand at the BUCK and McCray talks about some of the others and the effect powell's injury has on the unit.
"It has been humbling," McCray said of Powell's ACL tear. "We have to take it play by play and day by day. You never know when that last snap will be. Injury can come at any time, it doesn't have a name or a face. It just makes our team work harder. Everyone has to step up their level of play so we can get back to where we want to be."
McCray is ready to play where they need him to make things work.
"I can play anything on defense, it doesn't matter to me," he said. "I like to play with my hand down and play linebacker also."
For the BUCK position McCray says, "Kedric Johnson. Brian Cox, Gideon Ajagbe, all of those guys have the ability to do it."
He also noted one freshman that has come on board.
"Dante Fowler is real good," he said of the 6-3, 265 pounder from St. Pete. "Yesterday we had some drills and he looked real good coming off the line. He will definitely contribute this year if he wants to and he has that 'want to'."
The units just seem closer and the depth seems to be catching up quickly on the roster with quality players, some who will be pretty young. But they are all working together.
"I feel comfortable with my teammates," McCray said. "We made tremendous progress this offseason. We are more together and I can trust every one of my teammates."
The trust comes from a common bond wit6h the coaching staff and namely the head coach. A squad of 80 is preparing for a season to work as one and they plan to do it with the style and flare that he is known for.
"Our team is an image of Coach Muschamp," McCray said. "Whatever he does and whatever he says we are right behind him. If he has a fiery edge, we have a fiery edge."

Update: The Chase Ink Bold card is no longer available for new sign-ups.
Via Travel With Grant, new Chase Ink Plus and Chase Ink Bold cards are Chip & Signature.
But what if you already have a Chase Ink Card? Can you get a new 1 with a chip?
Chase Ink Plus & Chase Ink Bold Now Chip & Signature
Link: Chase Ink Plus
Link: Chase Ink Bold
According to Travel With Grant, Chase is issuing new Chase Ink cards with chips built-in.
The Chase Ink Plus currently has an outstanding 70,000 Chase Ultimate Rewards point sign-up bonus when you apply in a Chase branch.
Current Chase Ink cardholders will have their old cards updated over time. If not having a chip in your card puts a chip on your shoulder, you can call Chase.
But Chase won't necessarily send you a new Chip & Signature version of the card right away.
And Chip & Signature technology is NOT the same as Chip & PIN, so it may not be as helpful as you'd like when traveling overseas. But in general the Chase Ink Plus and Ink Bold are good to use when outside of the US because they don't have foreign transactions fees.
The Chase Ink cards join the Chase Sapphire Preferred which is already being issued as Chip & Signature. The Chase Sapphire Preferred also has no foreign transaction fees when you use it abroad.
Earlier this year, the Delta American Express cards added Chip & Signature technology while removing their foreign transaction fee.
And the Barclaycard Arrival Plus now has a Chip & Signature AND the option to use a PIN. Combined with no foreign currency fee, this makes the Arrival Plus card especially useful in places like Europe with automated vending machines that sell train and bus tickets.
Bottom Line
Chase is sending out new Ink Plus and Ink Bold cards with Chip & Signature technology. If you already have the card, it will eventually be updated.
Do you feel added security and convenience with Chip & Signature cards? Or does it not make much difference to you?

text: Politics 20 March 2013 Osborne's housing policy risks being sub-prime for Surrey Our housing market is overheating as it is. The last thing we need is a massive lending spree. Sign up for our weekly email * Print HTML Many of the measures announced by the Chancellor are relatively simple. Either the effects are basically known – think fuel duty, which is always a fight between climate change and revenue versus angry motorists – or the debate around them is pretty black and white – will cutting corporation tax lead to growth, or just a hand-out to businesses? The big one which we're watching play out now is the chancellor's new housing policies. Two major measures were announced, under the branding "help to buy: £3.5bn was committed to shared equity loans. 20% of the value of a new home will be loaned by the government, interest free, repaid when the home is sold. A 5% deposit required. Available to everyone buying a new-build home worth moreless than £600k. Because it is an investment in the equity of the house, it won't be counted toward the deficit figures. Offering a mortgage guarantee to lenders to encourage them to loan to people who can't afford a deposit. The Government will back up the deposits of £130bn worth of mortgages, from 2014 to 2017. It will guarantee the equity of 15 per cent of the house's value, and apply to all homes, not just new builds. The measures fit Dan Davies' classic summation of the eternal failure of UK policy in this area: The whole of British housing policy can be seen as an effort to reduce the cost of housing without affecting house prices. By extending greater credit to people who otherwise couldn't afford a house, the plan is that they will be able to buy it at the existing price. Where the increased demand might then increase prices further, the requirement that the house be a new build – which is clearly intended to stimulate housebuilding – ought to ensure that house prices hover around the same level. The outcome of the policy depends greatly on the demand for it – and at first glance I don't expect demand to be very high. A 5 per cent deposit is, obviously, a quarter of a 20 per cent deposit. But the problem for too many families is that the thought of saving for any deposit is beyond the realms of imagination at the moment. @jamesrbuk I fail to see how saving for an unattainable 5% deposit rather than an unattainable 20% deposit helps me buy a house. — Alex Hern (@alexhern) March 20, 2013 The average UK house costs £238,293, meaning a 5 per cent deposit would cost a little under £12,000, which is more savings than 71 per cent of the UK have. It's certainly the case that some of that 29 per cent who do have enough savings to pay a £12,000 deposit might not have enough to pay a £48,000 deposit; but it remains the case that if you want to buy a house, you are likely to do it with money inherited from someone else in your family, because few people are in a situation where they can save nearly enough to afford a deposit up front. Of course, despite what Ed Miliband repeats there isn't only one Britain. The housing market in London and the South-East is vastly different from the rest of the country. In the former, where the market is definitely overheating already, the policy will do little but raise prices even further. In the latter, the question is whether the difference between an 80% and 95% mortgage is big enough to turn the market around. In both, it will also be grossly distortionary around the £600,000 cut-off point, and may actually depress prices in the short term as people hold off til 2014 to buy. But the real aim of it isn't to help people who can't afford deposits buy homes. Instead, it's to help people who can afford deposits buy more expensive homes for their money. That won't do a huge amount for those who aren't already in some way in the housing market, but it will help a great deal to keep that housing market buoyant for a while longer. The deficit-free aspect of the scheme is also questionable. The loans will indeed be backed up by the equity the government is taking in the new houses, and in the long run – assuming that house prices continue rising, which remains unspoken government policy – it will be deficit neutral. But so would a lot of things the government could do. If it decided to build social housing, that would likely be deficit neutral in the long run; as would investment in green energy, or loans to small businesses. Any measure to fix Britain's housing situation must be applauded for its aims, but this, I fear, continues the worst policies we already have, and at best will only treat the symptom, not the cause. › The budget's effect on growth?

Scenarios for Sudan: Avoiding Political Violence Through 2011
More political violence will be hard to avoid in Sudan, barring a quick change in current trends, according to a new USIP report. Much of the outcome hinges on the handling of issues that involve the 2011 referendum on whether the South secedes from Sudan.
The lack of governance capacity in the South and failure to resolve tensions between the North and South are two major factors that could lead to future conflict if they are not addressed before the referendum, author Alan Schwartz finds. He runs through three scenarios for possible outcomes – a costly secession; civil war, from tinderbox to conflagration; and muddling through -- and recommends ways Sudan and international community can work to avoid such political violence in the coming years.
About the Report
This report summarizes three workshops designed to explore opportunities to avoid political violence in Sudan through the end of 2011. Sponsored by the United States Institute of Peace, these workshops took place during April and May 2009 with assistance from PolicyFutures, LLC. Twenty Sudan experts participated. The author, Alan Schwartz, principal and cofounder of PolicyFutures, LLC, teaches and facilitates the use of analytic tools and techniques, including scenario planning. He is an affiliated professor at Georgetown University's Public Policy Institute. He holds an LLM in administrative law from Georgetown University Law Center and a JD from University of Pennsylvania Law School. In October 2006 he published USIP Special Report 174, "Scenarios for the Insurgency in Iraq," and in July 2005 he published USIP Special Report 142, "Iraq Election Scenarios: Anticipating Alternative Futures."

@acrosomeLocale: Back in the Front Range
The trek poles are a bit on the heavy side.
Why do you need a case for your camera? It's waterproof. Granted it only weighs 0.67oz, but I just toss mine in my pocket. (I also have an Optio waterproof.)
You can find lighter shoes, if you are so inclined.
I also have a GoLite Jam, and I'm considering replacing it with one of the MLD packs to save some weight. Gossamer Gear makes lighter packs too.
If you don't do a lot of night hiking (but you may, living in Finland) you probably don't need the Petzl. You can save 2.5oz with a LED light.
Everything else I can come up with to critique comes down to personal style. I also assume that you're not taking all of this in warmer weather.
If I know Finns, that "small knife" is a puuko you can spear goats with. :o)
Have fun.Apr 5, 2010 at 11:14 am #1594440
Weather in finland is some times suprising. Mid summer in south is quite warm. Never under 50F /10C, but sometimes it is possible to go near 41F/5C. And heavy rain.
Summer temperatures are above 50F/10C about 3 months usually. That why i have so much clothes.
Trekking poles.
Very heavy, but i have these all ready. And i can use these in winter snowshoe trips. I was thinking if i make lighter carbon poles some day.
Camera case.
Pentax is waterproof, but i want something to cover lenses and LCD display.
I going to get xa pro 3d whitout gore.
I also have golite ion to summer/short trips.
Petzl and night hiking.
Mid summer i dont need lamp at all. Spring and autumn good light is necessary.
Small knife is victorinox classic.

This vase was broken by accident. As they started digging they found more... ...and more. They were already worth a fortune back in the day, so nobody knows yet how many millions we would be talking about today. Experts believe they were stored brand new as they show no signs of use.

e-mail from Mrs Hull 22nd Aug04
Just a little thank you for the use of your apartment in Spain. It was so nice to have such a clean /tidy place to stay. Lovely to have everything that we needed already there in the apartment.
It was such a lovely area to stay the bar/café across the road was nice ( a lovely English
Sunday roast). The pool was just right for the children nice and safe. I will definitely be telling my friends how nice the apartment was !.
Many thanks again.
Love Mrs Hull...

Just to stay thankyou. Your appartment was lovely nice and clean and tidy Ourseves and our 3 kids really enjoyed our weeks holiday here. The pool was very nice aswell not to busy. Would recommend this to people and would go back again thanks again kerry and paul
Lovely Apartment with everything you need. Great communication, help and advise from the owners. Based in a quiet location but every thing easily accessible by car or bus. Communal pool was extremely clean and well maintained. Local Restaurants very good, Asian Garden, Star of India and Alingui. Town only 5 km away and lots to do in area. recommend the Horse show across the road at villa salada, the Jet boat at the marina, the Friday Market in town early until 1pm and the evening market next to fun fair at the marina.
Property was in a nice area close to amenities bars restaurants we found the property spotlessly clean and tidy there was everything you needed to make you feel at home communication and booking with the owner was excellent from start to finish they also arranged the transfers from the airport also we would highly recommend this apartment and the owner and will certainly use there services again Thanks again Paul. Gillian.
We have been renting these apartments for several years now, usually visiting twice a year. The apartments are always spotlessly clean on arrival, & equipped with everything needed for the perfect self catering holiday. On this trip we were joined by 2 family members making their 1st visit, & both can't wait to return! San Luis has lots of bars & restaurants, all selling food & drink at VERY low prices. The nearest is Casa Ventura, just across the road, who do an excellent roast Sunday lunch (beef pork or chicken) for only €5-50. At Gran China (less than 5min drive) you get an excellent 3 course Chinese meal (including half btl of wine) for only €7-50. Mercadona supermarket is close by, or 5 min drive takes you to the huge Carrefour hypermarket. Excellent markets at La Mata (10min drive) on Wednesday, or Torrevieja on Friday (bus advisable to the latter as parking a nightmare on market day!) Guests at both apartments have free use of the lovely communal pool about 200yds away, or the beautiful beach at Guardamar is about a 10 min drive. The locals in San Luis are a real friendly lot & we have made many friends over the years.Booking with Christne couldn't be simpler, & the local caretakers Carol & Fred (a lovely couple) or Joy (a few doors away) live nearby & are on hand for any problems, but chances are you will never need them. All 5 of us are already looking forward to our next visit! Can highly recommend both apetments, no noisy nightlife, so a good sleep guranteed!
What a little gem.Keys and full details arrived on time. Flight was into Murcia Airport, very easy 30 min drive. Really quite little spot, just over the road is a Restaurant, but it's large with a bowling green, full every day, they do take it seriously. Swimming pool 5euro a day if you don't use the apartment one. Just down the road is a small commercial center, headed straight for the Bodega, wine 1.37 euro a litre!! Indian and chinese both very good. Off course although a quite area your just off the main road for running up and down the coast. Very highly reccommended
Stayed at this apartment twice and have had great holidays, went first time with friends to look at property in the area but loved the place so much took the family back for a holiday!!……Christine the owner makes booking and staying at the apartment simple and is always only a phone call away should you need to ask anything.
Apartment is spotless in a beautiful area and easy to get to from either Alicanti or Murcia airports, you have everthing you need with-in easy reach, beaches, shops, restaurants and quiet Spanish towns.
Will be back again for sure…as kids loved it there, if it were in a holiday brochure it would have 5 stars for accommodation and service!
San Luis is a quiet area, part residential and part holiday homes, just outside of Torrevieja town. It is situated a few kilometres from the A-7 motorway, on which you can travel north to Elche, Alicante and Benidorm or south to Murcia, La Manga del Mar Menor, Cartagena and the Costa Calida.
Guardamar is a short drive away and has a wonderful beach, which stretches for miles. There are some other fantastic beaches (and walks along walkways at the bottom of the cliffs), on the other side of Torrevieja (La Zenia, Cabo Roig and many more).
There are entrances nearby into the two salt lakes of Laguna de la Mata and Laguna de Torrevieja, where the locals bath for therapeutic purposes.
There are many markets throughout the week in the local towns and villages.
The apartments are close to the numerous golf courses and bowls clubs in the Costa Blanca region. The San Luis bowls club can be seen from the balcony and roof solarium of both the 2-bedroom and 3-bedroom apartment.
Other Activities: bowls
Golf: Golf Courses in Costa Blanca Region. The apartments are close to the numerous golf courses in the area, namely Alenda, Alicante, Altorreal, Bonalba, Campoamor, Don Cavo, El Plantio, La Finca, La Manga North, La Manga South, La Manga West, La Marquesa, La Sella Las Ramblas, Olivia North and Villamartin.
They are very central for use as a base for a golfing holiday, and for breakfast and meals in the evenings, there are many bars and restaurants nearby

"My cats love these. They are quick and simple to make. For anyone unfamiliar with the yarn that is suggested for the pattern, it is a fingering weight, 4 ply yarn that is 100 percent cotton. I used worsted weight and a 3.5mm hook for mine, so I wouldnt have to worry about the cats pulling the stuffing out through any holes."

"This is absolutely stunning! I love it. I love vintage China and this is one way to display it. For my own personal taste I would use less pieces in the back, or even paint the background to make it pop more, and use the broken pieces on,y around the border as a type of frame. But that's just me. Alternatively, using less cups and just feature a ew with the broken pieces may set them off better. But all in all this is a great idea and display! Love it!"

Recycle bins and containers for a fun, thrifty craft project that doubles as organization! These upcycled containers are decoupaged with scrap paper and then put to use!
- Scrapbook paper
- Mod Podge
- Credit Card
- Old Containers
Coffee Container:
- Cut a piece of scrap book paper to size of the container to cover.
- Slap the MP onto the can.
- Add scrapbook paper.
- Smooth it out with a credit card.
Yogurt Container:
- These little containers can pose a little challenge because the top is larger than the bottom. I started off the same way as coffee can, but had to rip the paper up the sides to get them to lay smooth.
- Continue to rip, MP and smooth the paper downward toward bottom of containers to prevent bubbles.
- The white bit at the top was not very pleasing (especially with the expiry date stamped on there)… so a little grosgrain ribbon solved that.
The possibilities are endless when you craft using recycled materials. Use this list of 14 Easy to Make Water Bottle Crafts as inspiration and then dream up some upcycled projects of your own!

I love ideas like this. Fantastic way to upcycle food containers for use around the home, instead of purchasing the pre-made ones which will do the same job. The decoration can be more generic or rotated throughout the year depending on the season, too!

Love it- so simple! You could also just paint them, if you are really lazy or pressed for time or out of paper:) Also, you could print out photos of your pets/children, or artwork you like (paper ephemera or photos) and decoupage them onto the containers.

*From the Heart Institute (Drs. Schwammenthal, Amichai, Behar, Hod, and Feinberg) and Cardiac Rehabilitation Institute (Dr. Adler), Chaim Sheba Medical Center, Tel Hashomer, Israel; and the Department of Cardiology (Dr. Sagie), Rabin Medical Center, Petach-Tiqvah, Israel.

Study objectives: Assessment of global myocardial performance by a single index (ie, the myocardial performance index [MPI]) has been suggested as an appealing alternative to the individual assessment of systolic and diastolic left ventricular (LV) function We sought to test the prognostic value of MPI in comparison to clinical characteristics and echocardiographic parameters of LV filling and ejection in acute myocardial infarction (AMI).
Patients: Four hundred seventeen consecutive patients with AMI were examined within 24 h of hospital admission.
Interventions: Doppler echocardiographic measures of systolic, diastolic, and global myocardial performance were assessed within 24 h of hospital admission. In addition to MPI (ie, the sum of the isovolumic time intervals divided by ejection time), we determined the isovolumic/heterovolumic time ratio, which expresses the time "wasted" by the myocardium to generate and decrease LV pressure without moving blood.
Results: The end points of the study at 30 days were death (4.7%), congestive heart failure (23%), and recurrent infarction (4.8%), and occurred in 109 patients, who were compared as group B to 314 patients without an event (group A). Multivariate analysis identified only age (odds ratio [OR], 1.04; 95% confidence interval [CI], 1.02 to 1.07), LV ejection fraction (LVEF) ≤ 40% (OR, 3.82; 95% CI, 2.15 to 6.87), and E-wave deceleration time (EDT) of ≤ 130 ms (OR, 2.29; 95% CI, 1.0 to 5.21) as independent predictors of adverse events.
Conclusion: LVEF and EDT are powerful and independent echocardiographic predictors of poor outcome following AMI, and are superior to indexes of global LV performance. Both parameters should be taken into consideration when deciding about the management of these patients.

A Former Apple Store Worker Named "Sam Sung" Is Auctioning Off His Business Card for Charity . . . and the Bids Are Already Over $80,000
Sam Sung to auction his Apple business card on eBay http://t.co/cq97vosNrW pic.twitter.com/baAdvMQ83U
— TOI Tech (@toi_tech) August 7, 2014
Back in 2012, a photo an Apple Store employee's BUSINESS card made the rounds online . . . because his name was "Sam Sung." Which you probably thought was funny for about three seconds, then got over it.
But apparently some people STILL think it's hilarious. And it's a good thing they do, because it might REALLY help someone.
Sam is 25 years old, and lives in Vancouver. He quit his job at the Apple Store last year, but found one of his old business cards in a book recently . . . and decided to auction it off for CHARITY.
He put the card in a frame, along with an old work shirt and his nametag. Then he put it on eBay last week with a starting price of 99 cents. And now with four days still left in the auction . . . the current highest bid is over $80,000.
The money will go to the Children's Wish Foundation, which is just like the Make-a-Wish Foundation. According to a spokesperson for the charity, it costs about $10,000 to make the average kid's wish a reality. So 80 grand would be enough for eight wishes.
Kane is joined by co-hosts Riley, Rose, Intern John and producer Erick. The high-energy, fast-paced program features music, conversations on the latest news and hot topics, Hollywood news, contests, call-in interaction with listeners, plus interviews with the biggest celebrities in music and pop culture. The show features signature segments such as "War of the Roses," "Hollywood," "The Tea," "John's Justice," "Ghosted" and "Moron Madness."
Kane Cares! We'd love to hear about your event or organization. Use this link to send us your information!

Lord of Stormweather, by Dave Gross, is the seventh and final book of the Sembia: Gateway to the Realms series.
| The heir to the Uskevren fortune never expected to inherit so much so soon.
After a sorcerous attack on Stormweather Towers cuts the family in half, Thamalon must learn to lead the survivors before a deadly assassin finishes the job. Too bad nobody seems willing to follow his lead. Worse still, some of them want him dead.
