Notre Dame will provide an alternative for the 21st century - a place of higher learning that plays host to world-changing teaching and research, but where technical knowledge does not outrun moral wisdom, where the goal of education is to help students live a good human life, where our restless quest to understand the world not only lives in harmony with faith but is strengthened by it, |
Now these are the priests and the Levites that went up with Zerubbabel the son of Shealtiel, and Jeshua: Seraiah, Jeremiah, Ezra, / Amariah, Malluch, Hattush, / Shechaniah, Rehum, Meremoth, / Iddo, Ginnetho, Abijah, / Miamin, Maadiah, Bilgah, / Shemaiah, and Joiarib, Jedaiah, / Sallu, Amok, Hilkiah, Jedaiah. These were the chief of the priests and of their brethren in the days of Jeshua. |
Obviously what is being reported right now is an impasse. There are a lot of teams in similar straits that we are in, in terms of kind of waiting and hoping for the best. If no agreement is reached, I am sure there will be some very difficult decisions to be made. The players and the owners have to sort this thing out. It will take time. It is frustrating for, I think, fans and everyone. |

One of the first things we did was establish that there was the shot-caller behind the scenes on the conspiracy side. We wanted to make it a woman, because we thought that would be an intriguing image. But, secondarily, we wanted to play against people's assumptions that the woman must be the president's wife or something and never really think that the woman could be the vice president. |
Our anticipated results for our second quarter and the remainder of fiscal 2006 reflect smaller year-over-year increases in earnings than we had anticipated, primarily due to continuing production delays in several markets that have postponed deliveries, a slower recent sales pace, higher cancellation rates, more pronounced use of concessions and incentives, and material price increases. |
Our current learners come from a wide variety of backgrounds. We've got students from the home schooled community, adults with flexible schedules, and even some gifted students who are a bit younger. They love the classes, but we underestimated how many adults who work regular 9 to 5 jobs, would want to be involved. We've been getting calls and emails begging us to offer evening classes. |
Our decision to part with several valuable stations and their associated, valued employees was difficult, but we believe these stations will be viewed as welcome additions to the station portfolios of one or more strategic buyers. At the same time, we look forward to welcoming into our Media General family the approximately 450 employees associated with the NBC stations we are acquiring. |
Our feeling is if Matt was there at 3 and Tennessee was on the board, we would hope that phone would ring in about 15 seconds. That is the vote of confidence that we would be looking for. Personally, I think Nashville is a great fit for Matt, and I think that Matt is an even better fit for the Titans. This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. We'll just have to wait and see what happens. |
Our guys are playing well right now. Having said that, I think we are coming up on the toughest part of our schedule. We have three matches in a row on the road and we need to be playing our best tennis of the year. It's going to be a major challenge, but I think we have a good deal of momentum and confidence going into it. Hopefully we can come out and play to the best of our abilities. |
Our investigator arrived on the scene after 4 p.m., so he had only about an hour of daylight left. Most of the work he will need to do in the immediate future is examine the wreckage. I am sure that is what he is doing today. He will examine the wreckage, draw diagrams and interview any eyewitnesses to the crash. Incidentally, he will be drawing upon the maintenance records of the plane. |

Our new players are playing very well, at least three games into the season. It's just a matter of how they continue to develop and adjust. It's different for each player. I think David Adams is so advanced that he's adapted pretty well. It takes some kids longer -- even a whole year sometimes. Overall, I'm happy with how they have performed so far. But they are going to be inconsistent. |
Our tax policy with regards to energy is so far way from Mr. Smith's teachings that we probably will never get back to it. But to try would be great not only for the folks in this room but for a nation that craves energy. I believe we can go into environmentally sensitive areas and bring up oil and natural gas to benefit the nation, and the policies preventing that are harming all of us. |
