“If you find yourself staring at your calendar and pondering which over-lapping trade show event you should attend because your company has only one trade show display in inventory-and time/money are an issue-then a one-time rental decision may be a good decision.

There are historical roots linking north and south Sudan. The Nile River ties the parties together for better or for worse. Music and food are shared by the two people. Commonalities created a union government for all Sudanese in the north and south. Some say that the commonalities far outreach constitutional differences and if these are not respected in future the fault will be laid at the door of politicians, not the people.

These tragedies coming on the heels of our celebration of the life of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. also reminds us of his dream for a better America. Martin Luther King’s August 28, 1963 speech “I have a Dream” galvanized the hopes and dreams of millions of Americans regardless o
