Since smugglers smuggle to make money, if we can hit them in the pocketbook we hope this can serve as a deterrent.
In our generation, everybody told us that it's really important and it's nice to be able to speak a lot of languages. It's an art, too. It really impresses me, people who speak, like, seven languages. I admire them so much, so I began with English, and then Spanish and maybe Portuguese.
We will continue to monitor the volume. If appointments have to be extended, we will extend the deadline.
It's still a pilot program not integrated with the passenger vehicle program.
It was quite audacious and highly inappropriate. What was he afraid of being asked?
The aggregates industry may end up being like the dolphins getting stuck in the net with the tuna. If they amend the (Mine Safety) Act, I don't see how they are going to differentiate between the different categories of mining.

From their struggles to establish dominance over each other, siblings become tougher and more resilient. From their endless rough-housing with each other, they develop speed and agility. From their verbal sparring they learn the difference between being clever and being hurtful. From the normal irritations of living together, they learn how to assert themselves, defend themselves, compromise. And sometimes, from their envy of each other's special abilities they become inspired to work harder, persist and achieve.
The mere existence of an additional child or children in the family could signify Less. Less time alone with parents. Less attention for hurts and disappointments. Less approval for accomplishments. . . . No wonder children struggle so fiercely to be first or best. No wonder they mobilize all their energy to have more or most. Or better still, all.
Take two kids in competition for their parents' love and attention. Add to that the envy that one child feels for the accomplishments of the other; the resentment that each child feels for the privileges of the other; the personal frustrations that they don't dare let out on anyone else but a brother or sister, and it's not hard to understand why in families across the land, the sibling relationship contains enough emotional dynamite to set off rounds of daily explosions.
When we give children advice or instant solutions, we deprive them of the experience that comes from wrestling with their own problems.
