A WORD FROM THE EDITOR

Before leaving on vacation this summer (if you're so lucky), check the deadlines below for proposals due in May and beyond. As you head out the door, take along the "Top" lists of influential people and celebrities for good beach-reading and prospecting. Who had the most expensive weddings . . . and divorces? When it's time to get back to business, you'll find the latest information about the mortgage market in the News beat.

Consider how your prospects' giving potential will be affected as you study real estate trends. Take a trip across the pond to learn who's rich and getting richer in the UK. Simon Cowell and Paul McCartney -- guess who's moved up or down the Rich List? While in the UK, take some painless lessons from the BBC on how to use news feeds. Back in the USA, you'll be able to locate the wealthiest (and poorest) places in the country, thanks to a tip from a reader.
