[As CMC sees it, it's our last chance to protect the last real wild ocean place in the continental United States.] It's very clear that unless we protect this reef ecosystem, while it is still nearly pristine, the population increase that Florida is experiencing, the water pollution and the pressure on the fisheries will probably doom this rain forest of the sea, ... We will probably not get another chance. |
[As professionals, print buyers need to understand all aspects of the production process: mechanical as well as aesthetic. Because there is no formal accreditation program for buyers in academia, print buyers] need a group like Boston Print Buyers to publicize the print buying, provide education about new technologies, and garner respect for the print buying professional, ... Printing is all about creation. |
[Bush can claim one triumph: We have suffered no further attack on U.S. soil since 9/11 (not counting the unsolved anthrax attacks later that fall). Casualties are far fewer, too, than in any other major war in U.S. history since the Revolution.] I do think there's been progress in some areas, ... In the last four years, for example, I think the world has become a tougher place for terrorists to operate in. |
[But the conservation, local government and ethnic affairs minister claims that he wasn't sure what he was bidding for at the time.] I was getting a hard time from the audience who were saying I was a rich MP and I should contribute, so I hadn't even really looked at the picture, ... Now that I've got it, I'm not quite sure who I can give it to. But I don't think I'll be hanging it in my ministerial office. |
[For his part, retired Gen. Tommy Franks, who has been speaking out as a Bush surrogate, has an op-ed piece in this morning's New York Times, accusing Kerry of] distortions of history. ... The war against terrorism is the right war at the right time for the right reasons. And Iraq is one of the places that the war must be fought and won. George Bush has his eye on that ball, and Senator John Kerry does not. |

[T]he viewer is instructed by the narrator about exactly what to look for; his comments reinforce the notion that what we are about to see will be funny. Studio laughter accompanies each episode as a way of continually defining the actions as funny, prompting the home viewer to experience the scene as amusing, rather than feeling sympathy or compassion for the victim's plight, or searching to understand it. |
[The Dolphins, who spent last week at the San Francisco Hilton after playing the previous Sunday in Seattle, certainly weren't overwhelmed by rampant enthusiasm for the 49ers.] This is San Francisco, and they were a dynasty at one time, ... Yet you really don't see too many fans around here cheering for their team. I thought we'd at least see some hecklers when we got here, but that hasn't happened, either. |

[Yes, Bryant is innocent until proven guilty. And until he is convicted of a crime he has every right to earn a living. NBA commissioner David Stern said the right thing (publicly) when asked recently by a newspaper reporter whether Bryant should play as he awaits (along with the rest of us) the outcome of the criminal case against him:] Absolutely. ... could be [his] choice but [he] shouldn't be forced to. |
A lot of people are dissatisfied with the so-called mainstream media, and they'll sample us? When you're abroad, you buy and read The International Herald Tribune. Here, you read The New York Times, Washington Post, Wall Street Journal, Financial Times. You're a regular reader of The New Republic. Probably the same itch that makes you exercise your brain on dense, serious news organs will make you watch us. |
A rigorous doctrine of imputation is not only limiting but ends up doing a disservice to the nature of grace and justification. It makes the transactions of the gospel basically juridical. In the Roman view, justification and sanctification are a seamless fabric. It is more than a question of God simply seeing us through a legal scrim of Christ's righteousness. Righteousness actually begins to transform us. |
