Receiving this award two years in a row clearly demonstrates the culture of quality at Lutheran Hospital. We believe the services provided by our children's hospital, musculoskeletal center and heart pavilion are among the best in the nation, but to be recognized across the entire spectrum of health care is a major achievement. |
Recent research suggests that regularly seeing good friends in the local park will bring a greater boost to mental health than having a shiny German automobile parked outside your retirement home. My candid advice to aging Americans would be to use your hard-earned cash to invest much more in friendships than in material items. |
Right now business stinks, consumer confidence is down, the travel industry is suffering and the economic reports haven't been good and any economic recovery is going to be linked to the war. There haven't been too many first-quarter negative pre-announcements, but I'm still worried about corporate profits in the first quarter. |
Robin's music for Conker: Live and Reloaded runs a zigzag course from snaptop groove guitar rock to wildly funny operatic parody. Rare really took a cutting-edge leap by having Rabbit In The Moon remix and perform Rock Solid . On the streets RITM are known for their over the top live performances as well their infectious beats. |
Roby had a difficult time all night. I thought they did an excellent job in guarding Roby -- being physical with him and creating issues with him getting open and getting good looks. Most of his shots that he took were under duress, and we ended up with Marcus Hall having to over-dribble more because guys couldn't get freed up. |
Search engines need to better educate marketers and provide greater transparency into their methods. If they say that a certain percentage of clicks are fraudulent or if they offer a refund to marketers on some clicks, the engines will best serve marketers and agencies by being more open about how they come to such conclusions. |
Several years ago, I think it might go back eight, we did cut back on what we call the second games, whether it was at 7 o'clock or 10 o'clock. And that applied to everyone. But Montreal, because of their longer existence than Ottawa or the teams out west, would have felt the effect more. It was a budgetary thing at that point. |
She got off to a little bit of a slow start (in the finals) but it's a little bit nerve-wracking when you think everybody is saying you're the favorite and you're supposed to win. That's a lot of pressure. But as the match went on, that's the best I've seen her play. She wasn't missing anything. And she had her team behind her. |
She was the first member of her family to go to college, and her parents wanted her to stay in Baltimore, but Smith gave her over $10,000 in a grant for her first year and that made the difference. She'd lived in Baltimore for 18 years, really didn't know anything about how people lived in other places, and we changed her life. |
Since declining over the past week, it is our opinion that the shares of each microprocessor supplier sufficiently discount potentially slower PC sell-through as well as the potential for aggressive pricing this winter. We continue to receive confirmation of strong notebook PC and server demand, even if desktops are less clear. |
So I felt this burning summer. In form I might belong to humankind; in reality I seemed one of a ravenous self-destroying horde of rats. I am glad there is no God. If there were, I cannot imagine that we rampant, myopic, and insatiably self-centred creatures should be allowed to survive a single day more |
South Korea and India are key markets for diesel growth in Asia, and the market in China is continuously developing. However, near- and mid-term prospects for diesel vehicle sales in Japan remain limited. There has been some rejection of diesel technology among consumers, despite Japanese manufacturers embracing the technology. |
Stable demand and rising land values have placed upward pressure on pricing resulting in a 14.4 percent increase in average asking rates in only six months. With robust sales activity and mom-and-pop operators seeking expansion opportunities, we believe there is room for additional increases in newly constructed retail centers. |
Statistics we have been seeing state that the level of fixed and mobile penetration combined, is approximately 5.6 per cent of which approximately 3.4 per cent relates to mobile. Hence, there is major scope to increase this level of penetration, particularly with an official population of eight million plus and probably higher. |
Strong performance over the final weeks of the holidays helped Kmart's sales for December meet expectations. Categories showing particular strength included home-related items in areas such as appliances, decor, fashions and electronics, as well as do-it-yourself, consumables, stationery, prescription drugs, and seasonal items. |
