Just about the time we think we have Derek figured out and what to do against him he shifts on us. Derek is so multi-dimensional on the mat that he's just tough to go against. Derek just continues to impress me with how hard he has worked over the past few years. At times it seems like Ben can beat anybody in the world but him. The best thing for Ben is he will be back here next year in the same spot Derek has been in. |
Let them therefore give us two bullocks; and let them choose one bullock for themselves, and cut it in pieces, and lay it on wood, and put no fire under: and I will dress the other bullock, and lay it on wood, and put no fire under: / And call ye on the name of your gods, and I will call on the name of the LORD: and the God that answereth by fire, let him be God. And all the people answered and said, It is well spoken. |
Most of the major research collections were looted or burned or at least their status is very much in doubt. So, on one hand we have to think about what is the future of thought and culture in Iraq. And we have to remember that Iraq is a very youthful country, the majority of the population is under the age of 21. So we're very concerned about the future of this generation, what kind of materials they are going to use. |
Mrs. Eckert was a strong force in my life. She helped to develop in me a strong work ethic. She was a demanding teacher, but I didn't mind doing what she assigned. She taught her students to work hard and to accomplish whatever they set out to do, in spite of the obstacles. She taught us to never back down when we knew what we were doing or saying was right. She was very much a people person - she didn't forget anyone. |

My executive order will give taxpayers the accountability they deserve because it opens every school district's financial books to public scrutiny, ... Taxpayers may find they have the best-run schools in the state of Texas, or they may find areas where their schools should be getting more for their money. With greater transparency in our schools, parents will be empowered to demand change if needed at the local level. |

My understanding is it was a decision made by Baylor dining services staff, and I've not yet been able to trace it back to any Baylor administrators telling them point-blank to pull the cup. I think they were trying to be sensitive. Obviously, Baylor is a Baptist-affiliated institution, and Baptists as a denomination have been pretty outspoken on the record about the denomination's views about the homosexual lifestyle. |
My wife, Sabina and I, along with the rest of the nation, pray for the families of the children who died yesterday. Their loss and misery is unfathomable, ... My five daughters mean the world to me. Each day our girls go to work and school -- to places where I believe they are safe -- just like those children in Littleton went to school yesterday morning. The children who witnessed this rampage are also in our prayers. |

Nobody has done more at this early stage of their career, has done more than Mark has done. He's able to function. We just need him to function at a little better pace. He's a little late on a couple of throws, but he's making very good decisions. He hasn't turned the ball over in two days. You guys know how our defense gets after the ball. He's making good decisions. We just need him to make them a little bit quicker. |
Now that I coach, I think about what makes great players in high school so great, and it has a lot to do with maturity. Megan is mature beyond her years. That is why she is succeeding. She has become a team leader, she is enthusiastic and she handles pressure like a veteran. You cannot tell me that even if she is playing against smaller schools, it means anything less when she is scoring against two or three defenders. |

One of our clients was living alone after the loss of her spouse and was unable to drive because of health reasons. Once our volunteers started helping her with transportation and minor repairs to her home, she began to feel better and became more independent. Her health has improved and now she can drive short distances to the store and her church. This is only one example of the tremendous impact our volunteers make. |
