That’s what we get paid for. I wasn’t surprised that Casey won the pole. I think if Sterling had gone out earlier he would have had a real shot to win the pole.Our teams have had some struggles this year. Some of the pain has been self-inflicted, and some of the things we just couldn’t help. It’d be great to win here today. In a way, it’s just another race, but it’s a big deal to win Daytona and a big deal to win Indy. Really, it’s a big deal to win anywhere. It pays the same amount of points, but the money is a little bit different.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/52910</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Oh Ronald McDonald when you smileeach of your teeth gravestones stands forbillions and billions of lives. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/755]]></link><description><![CDATA[Oh Ronald McDonald when you smileeach of your teeth gravestones stands forbillions and billions of lives.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/755</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I have no fear of being less beautiful, I've always been afraid of not being beautiful. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/36772]]></link><description><![CDATA[I have no fear of being less beautiful, I've always been afraid of not being beautiful.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/36772</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Fortune, delighting in her cruel task, and playing her wanton game untiringly, is ever shifting her uncertain favours. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/50224]]></link><description><![CDATA[Fortune, delighting in her cruel task, and playing her wanton game untiringly, is ever shifting her uncertain favours.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/50224</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[All persons as they become less prosperous, are the more suspicious.

The issue is complex, both philosophically and theologically; but surely it is inappropriate to blame God for a problem He did not initiate, and [that is] in fact, one which He has sought to alleviate, at great cost to Himself. God sent His Son to inaugurate the Kingdom and to "destroy him who has the power of death, that is, the devil" (Heb. 2:14). God is not the cause of suffering and sickness; He is its cure! Jesus' ministry and death guarantee this.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6456</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Our goal is to do a larger volume of sales at a lower price. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/34442]]></link><description><![CDATA[Our goal is to do a larger volume of sales at a lower price.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/34442</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Commemoration of Thomas Bray, Priest, Founder of SPCK, 1730  The indwelling of Christ's Spirit means not only moral discernment ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7478]]></link><description><![CDATA[Commemoration of Thomas Bray, Priest, Founder of SPCK, 1730  The indwelling of Christ's Spirit means not only moral discernment but moral power. Paul's count against the Law is that it was impotent through the flesh. Against this impotence Paul sets the ethical competence of the Spirit. "I can do anything in Him who makes me strong," (Phil. 4:13) he exclaims. For his friends in Asia he prays "that God may grant you, according to the wealth of His splendour, to be made strong with power through His Spirit in the inner man, that Christ may dwell in your hearts through your trust in Him." (Eph. 3:16-17) This is the antithesis of the dismal picture presented in Romans 7, and it comes, just as evidently as that, out of experience. Indeed, we may say that the thing above all which distinguished the early Christian community from its environment was the moral competence of its members. In order to maintain this we need not idealize unduly the early Christians. There were sins and scandals at Corinth and Ephesus, but it was impossible to miss the note of genuine power of renewal and recuperation -- the power of the simple person progressively to approximate to his moral ideals in spite of failures. The very fact that the term "Spirit" is used points to a sense of something essentially "supernatural" in such ethical attainments. For the primitive Christians the Spirit was manifested in what they regarded as miraculous. Paul does not whittle away the miraculous sense when he transfers it to the moral sphere. He concentrates attention on the moral miracle as something more wonderful far than any "speaking with tongues." So fully convinced is he of the new and miraculous nature of this moral power that he can regard the Christian as a "new creation." (II Cor. 5:17) This is not the old person at all: it is a "new man," "created in Christ Jesus for good deeds." (Eph. 2:10) (Continued tomorrow).]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7478</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Commemoration of Thomas à Kempis, priest, spiritual writer, 1471   It is no great matter to associate with the ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7520]]></link><description><![CDATA[Commemoration of Thomas à Kempis, priest, spiritual writer, 1471   It is no great matter to associate with the good and gentle; for this is a naturally pleasing to all, and everyone willingly enjoyeth peace, and loveth those best that agree with him.

It is personal, with things happening between people as well as to and in them individually; it is compassionate, always eager to help, observant but non judgmental toward others, breathing out hope and concern; it is creative, with imagination about each one in the group and its work as a whole, watching for authentic new vision coming from any of them; and it is expectant, always seeking to offer to God open and believing hearts and minds through which He can work out His will, either in the sometimes startling miracles He gives or in steady purpose through long stretches where there is no special "opening". It may fairly be said that unless one enmeshes himself in this "redemptive fellowship" of the church, he lessens his chances of steady growth and effectiveness, in his Christian life and experience.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7101</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Power does not corrupt man; fools, however, if they get into a position of power, corrupt power. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/47966]]></link><description><![CDATA[Power does not corrupt man; fools, however, if they get into a position of power, corrupt power.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/47966</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[an apparent self-inflicted gunshot wound. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/38725]]></link><description><![CDATA[an apparent self-inflicted gunshot wound.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/38725</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I'm so surprised and happy to have won. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/41385]]></link><description><![CDATA[I'm so surprised and happy to have won.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/41385</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Internet security threats are rising at an alarming pace, and while consumers are increasingly aware of the risks, to date ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/42363]]></link><description><![CDATA[Internet security threats are rising at an alarming pace, and while consumers are increasingly aware of the risks, to date they have very little ammunition to combat and defend against these threats that are easy to use and cost effective.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/42363</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It does at first appear that an astronomer rapt in abstraction, while he gazes on a star, must feel more ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/3399]]></link><description><![CDATA[It does at first appear that an astronomer rapt in abstraction, while he gazes on a star, must feel more exquisite than a farmer who in conducting his team.   - Isaac D'Israeli,]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/3399</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[He who chooses the beginning of a road chooses the place it leads to.
