[This administration is as Machiavellian as any I recall in my lifetime, having already done much to rehabilitate the image of Nixon! In their predilection for political power, they have internalized Machiavelli’s advice] never to let his thoughts stray from the exercise of war. ... A prince, therefore, must not mind incurring the charge of cruelty for the purpose of keeping his subjects united and faithful. |
[Willie Davis, the senior pastor at Greater St. Paul Missionary Baptist Church and a supporter of the amendment, agrees.] This is not the normal right, evangelical fight. We are supporting it because of our biblical beliefs, ... That's not a principle we adopted because it's on the ballot. That's something we always believed in. I would hope we do not rewrite history as to what the creator has already defined. |
A good first step for companies is to note what worked and what didn't in their planned responses to past threats such as SARS. Companies should also make sure to communicate their formal plans to manage through any business interruption -- including alternative work arrangements and reimbursement for preventive and onset treatment -- to the entire workforce, particularly associates responsible for deployment. |
A lot of people put things off and they have not gotten around to filing. Others are waiting for their insurance companies to contact them. That is a mistake. You must make sure to get your name in the hat. Get your claims in now. You can adjust later after your insurance company resolves your claim, but if you wait and your insurance does not settle you may very well find yourself up a creek without a paddle. |
A lot of them -- not all, but a lot of them -- will tell you completely outrageous stories because it almost justifies what they've done. He almost is glorifying what he did and making it more because he hadn't gone through the (treatment) steps to where he's honest, even though he harps on how the truth is so important. . . . I think he made a good story about substance abuse; I'm not sure it happened to him. |
A sense of freedom is something that, happily, comes with age and life experience. In 'The Second Sex,' Simone de Beauvoir says that as they approach 50, a lot of women are set free from the anxiety and the mortification and the humiliation of intimate relationships with men - the opposite sex. For some reason, you are suddenly free from it. And thank God for that. It's the upside of sticking around this long. |

All you have to do is listen over and over and over again to any one of his songs. Even when they first started appearing in the early to middle '50s, the lyrics are incredibly dark. Everyone else is singing about getting girls and being happy, and he's singing about, 'I go out on a party and look for a little fun, but I find a darkened corner, because I still miss someone.' That's a dark lyric for a pop song. |
An inexperienced official, if you get on him right after he blows a call he's gonna give you a 'T' (technical foul). A confident, experienced official will let you have your say. Then he'll say, 'OK, that's enough.' And he might say, 'Coach, I missed it.' If you rip the inexperienced guy, he's gonna T you. He hasn't built up the positive reputation of being a good official. So he uses the power of the whistle. |
And at the same time we have gone through a whole period of restructuring the economy, of opening up the economy and bring with that huge competition from all over the world. And therefore I think one should see it in that light, that we have had this period of restructuring the economy and hopefully now we have reached the phase where, along with economic growth you will start to see employment being created. |
And he spake many things unto them in parables, saying, Behold, a sower went forth to sow; / And when he sowed, some seeds fell by the way side, and the fowls came and devoured them up: / Some fell upon stony places, where they had not much earth: and forthwith they sprung up, because they had no deepness of earth: / And when the sun was up, they were scorched; and because they had no root, they withered away. |
And his people came to him, (as if) rushed on towards him, and already they did evil deeds. He said: O my people! these are my daughters-- they are purer for you, so guard against (the punishment of) Allah and do not disgrace me with regard to my guests; is there not among you one right-minded man? / They said: Certainly you know that we have no claim on your daughters, and most surely you know what we desire. |
And those who believe say: Why has not a chapter been revealed? But when a decisive chapter is revealed, and fighting is mentioned therein you see those in whose hearts is a disease look to you with the look of one fainting because of death. Woe to them then! / Obedience and a gentle word (was proper); but when the affair becomes settled, then if they remain true to Allah it would certainly be better for them. |
And thou shalt bring the Levites before the tabernacle of the congregation: and thou shalt gather the whole assembly of the children of Israel together: / And thou shalt bring the Levites before the LORD: and the children of Israel shall put their hands upon the Levites: / And Aaron shall offer the Levites before the LORD for an offering of the children of Israel, that they may execute the service of the LORD. |
And thou, child, shalt be called the prophet of the Highest: for thou shalt go before the face of the Lord to prepare his ways; / To give knowledge of salvation unto his people by the remission of their sins, / Through the tender mercy of our God; whereby the dayspring from on high hath visited us, / To give light to them that sit in darkness and in the shadow of death, to guide our feet into the way of peace. |
