Say: Who is the Lord of the heavens and the earth?-- Say: Allah. Say: Do you take then besides Him guardians who do not control any profit or harm for themselves? Say: Are the blind and the seeing alike? Or can the darkness and the light be equal? Or have they set up with Allah associates who have created creation like His, so that what is created became confused to them? Say: Allah is the Creator of all things, and He is the One, the Supreme. |
Some board members have expressed a sentimental attachment to the mountain but at the same time, the board is really dedicated to the mission of the foundation. When we wear our Medina Foundation hats and not our Norton Clapp descendant hats, we think that what we should be doing is selling Turtleback and using the revenue from that sale to increase the amount of money we can put back into the community through grants that fulfill our mission. |

South Dakota enjoys a wonderful quality of life and a dedicated workforce, and it is easy to see why John Morrell would choose to expand here. I am pleased that this expansion not only will result in new jobs for Sioux Falls, but also because it demonstrates John Morrell's long-term commitment to the region. This expansion also reflects the talent and dedication of the folks who already work at John Morrell. |
Steelcase's dedication to protecting and preserving the environment serves as a steady drumbeat throughout the company, and greatly influences what products are created, how they are created and why. Being recognized by the EPA is an honor and a testament to Steelcase's ability to see the big picture by looking beyond the creation of office furniture to the creation of a cleaner, healthier, more sustainable environment for generations to come. |
Symphony Services' unprecedented growth over the past three years has been a direct result of our ability to capitalize on the rising demand in India for high-value work. By engaging in full lifecycle product development and analytics services, Symphony increasingly brings greater value to its clients and deepens its commitment to not only leading the world in these emerging categories, but to taking India's economy up the value chain with it. |
Talking to Chris after the season, I really believe he's a workout warrior. I think Chris needs to look at how he trains, and he is. Football is a game of intelligence, lateral quickness, lateral explosion, how fast can I get from here to there? Change of direction is important, and those were all the things he needs to go back and work on. I just felt like he got too big, too muscular. He was just so big. He looked good, but this is football. |
The bottom line for us is wanting to assure that parents who want to place their kids in a school in their neighborhood can do so, and at the same time allow for choice for other parents. That's what we're trying to accommodate here. We've looked at data, we've gone back and forth. We've been in transition for two years. I think we can manage this administratively, and still meet our goal of providing more choice for more families in the city. |
The break in the schedule a week ago helped us . . . to get our continuity, to get our defense together, ... Our offensive execution is way better than it was. . . . The big thing is we've got a pretty good rotation now. They're starting to feel more familiar with each other's games, and that takes a little time. We're still not there, but if we didn't have the break in the schedule I don't think we could have been able to get to where we are. |
The dissident does not operate in the realm of genuine power at all. He is not seeking power. He has no desire for office and does not gather votes. He does not attempt to charm the public, he offers nothing and promises nothing. He can offer, if anything, only his own skin -- and he offers it solely because he has no other way of affirming the truth he stands for. His actions simply articulate his dignity as a citizen, regardless of the cost. |
The first day we got down here, I said, 'The numbers are against you, but you still need to approach it like you're going out there to try and make this team.' I just want him to have fun. I don't know what teams are looking (for a catcher). Certain teams, if we try to get him through (waivers), there's teams that may want to go with the young guys and might take a chance on him. It's unfortunate he had those couple years where he was injured. |

The fishing up here almost always gets better after a storm like that. And that's got a lot to do with the pressure changes. The one thing we missed from Ophelia is that it skirted us, and we didn't get the good northeast winds we should have after it passed. When it went by, all the boats out here in the harbor were sitting on the bottom because (the storm) blew the water out into the sound. But we didn't get the cooler air in here behind it. |
The idea is to have a office where sales people, fisherman, contractors, business people, and others on the go can stop to lease space for storage but also get their paper mail, use the computer, be online with their laptop, send or receive a fax, or otherwise conduct business. In researching the project, I wanted a first class facility, state of the art, that provides not only storage, but customer service and a business friendly environment. |
