As we continued to see steady and considerable sales growth, it became critical not only to expand our sales and operations teams, but also to establish a physical sales presence in our key growth regions. As leading national business and technology hubs, Houston and San Jose offer the perfect locations for us to gain direct access to our customers and prospects in those cities, and in the regions around them. |
At a time when only four states - Colorado, Delaware, Maine and Mississippi - have allocated tobacco prevention and cessation budgets at recommended CDC levels, the industry spent $15.4 billion in 2003, according to the U.S. Federal Trade Commission. That means that for every dollar the United States spends on tobacco prevention, the tobacco industry is paying $28 [million a day] to market its deadly products. |
At first I thought, 'he's a teenager, he's irritable,' but then I knew it was more than that. Then he finally said he was really depressed, so we got him help. He was a lot better for a while, and then I started to notice things missing. His wardrobe was shrinking, his jewelry missing. I just had suspicions. In hindsight, I wish I had taken him for drug testing. But being naive about the whole thing, I didn't. |
At first, the idea of exercising at 7 a.m. on Saturday mornings can be a little hard to get used to. But after a few weeks most of our members look forward to spending time with our friends doing something we love and that we know is so important to our health. By starting early, we still have most of the day to spend with our families and with our run-walk method we still have the energy to enjoy the weekend. |

At the beginning of the 1960s, here in the United States, LSD became a drug of abuse. In a short time, this wave of popular use swept the country and it became drug number one. It was then used incautiously and people were not prepared and informed about its deep effects. And then all kinds of things happened, which caused LSD to become an infamous drug. It was a troublesome time! Telephones, panic, and alarm! |
At the noise of the stamping of the hoofs of his strong horses, at the rushing of his chariots, and at the rumbling of his wheels, the fathers shall not look back to their children for feebleness of hands; / Because of the day that cometh to spoil all the Philistines, and to cut off from Tyrus and Zidon every helper that remaineth: for the LORD will spoil the Philistines, the remnant of the country of Caphtor. |
At the risk of heresy, I want to ask a simple question: Why? Why are we having these hearings? After all, there is little doubt that Roberts will be confirmed. ... Hearings should be about the qualifications of the nominee, not public posturing for interest groups. Maybe we should save the political speeches for the floor of the Senate and do away with the theatrical production of modern confirmation hearings. |
Back in 1990, the (league) championship was a mad, mad celebration. It never affected that team because it was a magical year. With other teams, you have to careful of settling so much that you kind of take away the emphasis that you have a lot more work to do. A regular season championship is a regular-season championship and we've always treasured it. It's important to us. Is it the most important thing? No. |
Because network and NAS administrators typically focus on separate operation silos, they have little or no visibility into how network or NAS outages impact related devices. Use of EMC Smarts technology leverages root-cause and impact analysis allowing event correlation across IP and NAS systems, directly reducing finger-pointing and ensuring that teams focus on resolving the right problems in the right order. |
Blue sheets are an essential component of NYSE investigations into insider trading, market manipulation and other potential violations. Firms must get their operations in order, then periodically test their internal systems to be sure this vital information is accurate. We cannot allow the failure of firms to respond accurately and completely to regulatory requests for information to impede our investigations. |
Bunthorne's a high baritone, which is what I am. And I already come with the British accent, so that won't be a problem. You know, the designers came over and showed me the costumes. And they're wonderful--outrageous, campy, over-the-top. So maybe that's the new market I'm going to be cornering: campy, over-the-top characters who have a nasty side. Hmmm. What are they trying to tell me? |
Canada Customs have guidelines that make it optional whether or not someone considered violent, armed and dangerous, or as having terrorist ties, will be recorded as such in the Customs lookout database. More often than not, those guidelines are used in a way that prevents Customs Officers from knowing they're dealing with someone dangerous, which unjustly places them at risk of grievous bodily harm and death. |
Charlie Bronson, Peter Fonda -- worked with him a number of times. Sylvester Stallone. Bobby de Niro -- I guess he's put on a number of years, you'd call him Robert de Niro today. More recently, Sandra Bullock: She made 'Fire on the Amazon' with us (1993). She was young and the first actor who was really that good in years. We went right back to hire her again, but she'd already signed with Fox or Warner Bros. |
Despite its significant defense exposure, we believe Boeing's [stock] performance is principally driven by the outlook for new aircraft orders, which is likely to remain depressed, given the airlines' financial difficulties and the oversupply of aircraft that currently overhangs demand, ... We believe Boeing's recent run leaves the stock exposed to downside risk in the near term, with limited upside potential. |
