Around the year 1482 one such well-known physician was Dr. Paul Urssenbeck. His fame came from his ability to predict with certainty whether a patient would recover his or her health or would die. He thus became known as the doctor of death. In his earlier years, he followed the trade of a poor but honest weaver in the town of Deckendorf near Straudigen in Bavaria. It was a time of famine , and he, his wife, and their eleven children were in great need. Then a twelfth child was born, and they could find no one to serve as its godparent. As a last chance, the poor weaver walked to a nearby village and asked an old friend to serve as godfather, but met only rejection. Disappointed and frustrated, the poor man made his way back to his family. While walking sorrowfully through the dense forest toward his home, he said, "If only I could die." Suddenly a tall figure dressed in a dark cloak appeared before him, saying, "You called me. I am Death. What can I do for you?" As much as the man had previously wanted to die, he now wanted to live. "I am seeking a godfather for my youngest child. But I cannot find anyone who will serve as his godparent," answered the weaver sadly. "I will accept this responsibility," said Death. And thus it happened. Following the baptism , the mysterious godfather took the father aside and said, "Since I own neither gold nor silver to give to your child as a baptism present, I will make you into the most famous doctor of all times. Whenever you are called to a sick person, I--invisible to others--will seat myself either to the head or to the feet of the patient. If I am seated at the head, then this will show you that hope for recovery exists. If I am seated at the feet, then the patient will die." Through this gift, the weaver was able to cure many illnesses, for he knew whether the patient who had sought his treatment would be helped by medications, or whether he would die. Soon the previously poor weaver became a...

Read the following article and select the best answer. Article: In 1992, I had just launched a new business called Video News International. It was the world's first video journalist network. The idea was to cover news and sell the service to news organizations. One day, a young intern who was working for us named Anthony Lappe pulled me aside. "There is something you have to see," he told me. "Comcast is doing this really cool thing." "What?" "The Internet," he said. "It's going to be really big." Anthony later introduced me to the head of the Internet project. "We are looking for content to put on our network here," the guy said to me. Well, I said I had lots of content to offer. The guy's eyes lit up. "Cool," he said. "We would like to put it on our network." Well, I was always looking for new clients. "What are you going to pay?" I asked. He said that they could not pay anything for the content, but they would set up a URL for me. "What's that?" I asked. "It's kind of like your address on the web." "What would I do with this URL thing?" "Well, it could be your business." "I don't see how it is a business, and there's not even any advertising," I cleverly replied. "Not yet," he said. "But one day there might be." I thought about it for two seconds. "Naah..." I said. " _ . I've got to be going now. Maybe we can cooperate next time." And I walked out. Idiot! Well, that Internet thing turned out to be so much bigger than I had thought. I wish I had never made such a mistake. Sorry Anthony. You were right.
