THE RON CLARK STORY is the true story of one teacher's courage to leave his small hometown and head to one of the most challenging public schools in the country. We are proud to have an actor the caliber of Matthew Perry bringing his talents to such a memorable, inspirational story. |
The safest course for all of us as public officials is simply to throw all the money in a sack. Or in the way of one servant in the Biblical parable of the talents, bury the money in the ground rather than accept any risk. The servant's business plan proved reliable but ineffective. |
The Sapphire Award recognizes and rewards community health programs that have demonstrated success and high merit. The Award's recognition of effective initiatives is meant to promote greater and more lasting support for improved services and systems that can be sustained over time. |
The score was six to one and it actually should have been one to one. We gave them runs, we've been doing that and we're just not very good right now. Today, you name it, we did it the wrong way, but hopefully we gain experience from these games and get something positive out of it. |
The sense of urgency for us is we also want to keep going, keep getting better. It was a big game when we in San Jose for that team. It was a big game when we were in Anaheim for them. Guess what? If you look at the standings, it's going to be a big game for these teams every night. |
The seventh inning, that's what we've been for the last nine years. Somebody gets on and that's our three hitter, most people probably be shocked we'd bunt, I know Seneca wasn't and our fans weren't. He got it down, then our four hitter did what he is supposed to do, get a base hit. |
The Shuffle has been a pretty big hit. There's a perception that a 1-gigabyte player is a bit small, and so Apple has to be looking at a higher-density flash-based player. But it's really hard to anticipate Apple's actions. They may be using all this flash memory for something else. |
The significant number of development drilling locations combined with the substantial land inventory associated with JMG should provide continued growth for JED. Bringing the two companies under one management team will also provide significant synergies and operating efficiencies. |
The sky's the limit with his ability and his vision of the game. I watch some of those NBA games and I happened to be watching Boston down the stretch, and I said, 'You throw him in that uniform and all of a sudden they'll be a different basketball team.' I believe that much in him. |
The software market remains highly competitive and our fourth quarter results were mixed by geography. We saw double-digit growth in the Americas, where we believe we gained market share in both the fourth quarter and full year. This was partially offset by weaker results in Europe. |
The stakes are very high in how we construct the future of the Internet. Do we want a winner-takes-all scenario for whichever company ultimately creates that particular piece of intellectual property that maximizes interoperability (across systems) or do we want to create a commons? |
The start of a new year provides an opportunity to take stock of one's career and outline steps for advancing to the next level. Managers and employees must continually develop their professional skills and abilities in order to reach their full potential and remain engaged at work. |
The strange thing is, at this stage of my career, it's so hard for me to separate individual from team, ... So much of my focus is on the team. Maybe it's because I wear the (captain's) arm band every week. Maybe it's because I'm maturing as a person. I'm not really sure what it is. |
The surface has a bit of a quirky reputation, so it's important that he already has started there. It can be tiring for some horses the first time over it, but he handled it. It has the reputation of being very safe and if it rains, since it's sand-based, it can handle the moisture. |
