Obama donates Nobel Peace Prize money

Obama divided the money up among 10 charities, with Fisher House, a non-profit that provides housing for families of patients being treated at military and veteran hospital, receiving the most at $250,000.
The Haiti relief fund set up by former presidents Bill Clinton and George W. Bush will receive $200,000.
The rest of the money will go to the College Summit, Posse Foundation, United Negro College Fund, Hispanic Scholarship Fund, Appalachian Leadership and Education Foundation, American Indian College Fund, AfriCare and the Central Asia Institute.
The Central Asia Institute promotes community based education and literacy in remote regions of Afghanistan and Pakistan, with a special focus on girls.
The Nobel committee awarded Obama the prize in October, pointing to the change of tone in Washington but prompting critics to question the pick less than a year into his presidency.

Remote Desktops
A Remote Desktop is much similar to logging into your windows on your own PC. Except your logging into a server that has Windows 2008 on it instead. You will have your very own user account that NO ONE but you can access. We will give you instructions on how to use your own pc’s resources on your remote desktop and you can actually save all your data right on your own pc. Like Links Lists and Reports They can all be saved on your own hard drive from the remote desktop. You simply add your own PC to be used as a local resource and when you click on My Computer Icon in the start menu on the server your PC actually is an option to explore. It’s rather quite neat. For Security reasons we have made the desktop not able to save on it or delete. This is to ensure nobodie can delete anything on the server which is a possibility always. With your Purchase you will get a welcome email with full instructions on how to connect. All windows come with RDC (remote Desktop Client). We Will simply show you how to access this and connect at anytime you want. The server is never shut down so even when you disconnect from the server it’s still working. This is far better than the competition as they do not allow you to keep your RDC going at all times.

So I've been on my online venture for sometime now. But I have always stayed with GDI.
GDI isn't a company your going to get rich overnight with. But more of a compnay you can grow while your
onto other things. Now I have a HUGE downline that pays all my bills and some. I am so happy I stuck with
them the last two years. If you guys want to start with them it's only $10 a month. And it's definately worth it!

Why can't it be encourged, there was no compulsion that money should be donated to any social service firms. I think we should always encourge this.

Well, all the Nobel winners prevously too have donated the money to the cause they support. Mr. Obama was very well aware of this. The money given to him by the Nobel committee was in no way for him to spend on himself and his family. There anyways was so much noise about him winning the award at the first place, though many people thought he did not deserve. He himself was surprised to know he'd won the award. He just did what he had to do. Nothing great in that.
