The domain name edu is a sponsored top-level domain (sTLD) in the Domain Name System of the Internet. Since 2001, new registrants to the domain have been required to be United States-affiliated institutions of higher education, though before then non-U.S.-affiliated—and even non-educational institutions—registered, with some retaining their registrations to the present.
The .edu domain was implemented in April 1985 as a generic top-level domains. Six universities were the initial registrants that month.
Until 2001, Network Solutions served as registrar for the .edu domain under an arrangement with the U.S. Department of Commerce. Domain registration was done at no cost to educational institutions. In 2001, the Commerce Department entered into a five-year agreement with Educause making that organization the registrar for the .edu domain. The agreement with Educause was extended for an additional five-year period in 2006; at that time Educause was authorized to begin charging a yearly administrative fee to registrants.

In financial accounting, an asset is an economic resource. Anything tangible or intangible that can be owned or controlled to produce value and that is held to have positive economic value is considered an asset. Simply stated, assets represent value of ownership that can be converted into cash (although cash itself is also considered an asset).
The balance sheet of a firm records the monetary value of the assets owned by the firm. It is money and other valuables belonging to an individual or business. Two major asset classes are tangible assets and intangible assets. Tangible assets contain various subclasses, including current assets and fixed assets. Current assets include inventory, while fixed assets include such items as buildings and equipment.
Intangible assets are nonphysical resources and rights that have a value to the firm because they give the firm some kind of advantage in the market place. Examples of intangible assets are goodwill, copyrights, trademarks, patents and computer programs, and financial assets, including such items as accounts receivable, bonds and stocks.
And if my thoughts had wings
I'd be the bird that sings;
I'd fly where love isn't shy,
And ev'ryone is willing to try.
And if we had the time,
That time's so hard to find,
I could believe what you say,
Start sending those shadows away.
And if you know who you are,
You are your own superstar,
And only you can shape the movie that you make.
So when the lights disappear,
And only the silence is here,
Watch yourself, easy does it, easy does it, easy while you wake.
And if you know who you are,
You are your own superstar,
And only you can shape the music that you make.
So when the crowd disappears
And only the silence is near,
