It appears that most of the shelters ordered by FEMA have now been produced, but we do expect to see some carryover into 2006. In addition, industry sales in 2006 may increase due both to the need to replenish dealer lots that were depleted while manufacturers diverted their production capabilities to filling FEMA orders, and the permanent rebuilding of the hurricane-stricken areas.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/40602</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Misery travels free through the whole world! [Ger., Frei geht das Ungluck durch die ganze Erde!] ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/42766]]></link><description><![CDATA[Misery travels free through the whole world! [Ger., Frei geht das Ungluck durch die ganze Erde!]]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/42766</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[There are new words now that excuse everybody.

If obedience to the will of GOD be necessary to happiness, and knowledge of his will be necessary to obedience, I know not how he that withholds this knowledge, or delays it, can be said to love his neighbour as himself. He, that voluntarily continues ignorance, is guilty of all the crimes which ignorance produces; as to him that should extinguish the tapers of a light-house, might justly be imputed the calamities of shipwrecks. (Continued tomorrow)   ... a letter from Samuel Johnson to William Drummond of Edinburgh, 1766  July 13, 2002   Christianity is the highest perfection of humanity; and as no man is good but as he wishes the good of others, so no man can be good in the highest degree, who wishes not to others the largest measures of the greatest good. To omit for a year, or for a day, the most efficacious method of advancing Christianity [i.e., the Bible], in compliance with any purposes that terminate this side of the grave, is a crime [the like] of which I know not that the world has yet had an example.   ... a letter from Samuel Johnson to William Drummond of Edinburgh, 1766  July 14, 2002 Feast of John Keble, Priest, Poet, Tractarian, 1866   The "good" man, the man whose god is righteousness, has as his life's ambition the keeping of rules and commandments and the keeping of himself uncontaminated by the world. This sounds admirable; but, as the truth of Christ showed, the whole of such living, the whole drive and ambition, the whole edifice, is self-centered. That entire process of effort must be abandoned if a man is to give himself in love to God and his fellows. He must lose his life if he is ever going to find it.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7956</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Stocks have reached what looks like a permanently high plateau. -- Irving Fisher, Professor of Economics, Yale University, 1929. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/15198]]></link><description><![CDATA[Stocks have reached what looks like a permanently high plateau. -- Irving Fisher, Professor of Economics, Yale University, 1929.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/15198</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We didn't have any hope, either. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/32078]]></link><description><![CDATA[We didn't have any hope, either.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/32078</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The trees that are slow to grow bear the best fruit. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/64804]]></link><description><![CDATA[The trees that are slow to grow bear the best fruit.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/64804</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Faith is to believe what you do not see; the reward of this faith is to see what you believe. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/66557]]></link><description><![CDATA[Faith is to believe what you do not see; the reward of this faith is to see what you believe.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/66557</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Heat not a furnace for your foe so hot That it do singe yourself. -King Henry VIII.
