Its headquarters is at Avenida Presidente Roosevelt, no. 167, zip code 57040-600, district of Serraria, in the city of Maceió, state of Alagoas, Brazil. The state of Alagoas is located in the northeast region of Brazil and borders the states of Pernambuco to the north and northwest, Sergipe to the south, Bahia to the southwest, and the Atlantic Ocean to the east.1 The landform of this state consists of the coastal plain to the east, plateau to the north, depression in the midwest, and higher portions in the far west.2 The climate is tropical, humid on the coast and semi-arid in the center and west.3 The vegetation is composed of coastal mangroves, rainforest, and caatinga in the semi-arid region.4 The name of the state was chosen due to the hydrography of the region, which has 19 lakes. The largest ones are the Lakes Mundaú and Manguaba.5 The main river is Sao Francisco, which is also one of the major Brazilian rivers.6 Alagoas also has beautiful blue-pool beaches and warm waters.

  • Annual Report Message to Shareholders Alimentation Couche-Tard - Annual Report 2011
    Couche-Tard 2011 Annual Report Message to Shareholders Alimentation Couche-Tard - Annual Report 2011 STRONG, STABLE AND SUSTAINABLE In a notoriously fragmented industry, Couche-Tard continues to set the standard for strength of performance, sustainability, and stability. We continued to grow profits organically in 2011, despite the ongoing challenges of the marketplace, advanced our in- store efficiency still further, and pruned more underperforming assets from the network. The balance sheet has never been stronger thanks to our capital management. It has been rewarded with investment grade corporate credit rating issued by Standard & Poor’s. These encouraging trends are apparent in growth rates over the past five years: the network has been growing at 4% compound annual growth, merchandise and service sales are growing faster at 8% and EBITDA faster yet at 11%. Motor fuel volume has been growing at 11.5% and the outlook is promising for improved and more stable fuel margins. These are the progressions that create true value for our shareholders. They are a tribute to the skills, imagination, and hard work of every member of our large family. Double-Digit Earnings Growth in 2011 Net earnings grew more than 22% to $370.1 million, equal to $2 per share or $1.97 diluted. This is the third straight year of double digit growth. If we look at this on a comparable basis year over year, stripping out exceptional items, the growth in 2011 reached 31%. The 15.4% increase in revenues to $19 billion was due mainly to a 20.7% increase in motor fuel revenues coming mostly from higher prices at the pump.

  • The Arts – Foundational Element
    The Arts – Foundational Element of an Impactful Life By Darla Martin Tucker The world began through an unfathomable act of brilliant creativity that human minds cannot comprehend. Earthly life, marred as it has become, abounds with innumerable exquisite moments and elements, all the handiwork of the original Artist who expressed Himself and communicated His deep love through creating what previously did not exist. The stated aim and mission of Seventh-day Adventist education is to pursue whole-person development and produce service-oriented, joyful individuals who are deeply connected to and modeled after our Creator God. The visual, performing, and literary arts provide a multitude of avenues for students to develop in this way, to function as “brand ambassadors”—storytellers for our Creator and for His gospel mission and objective to create new lives out of suffering, to give a voice to the marginalized, and to know ourselves and each other in a meaningful way. “The arts give us meaning and help us communicate our stories and experiences across time,” said Terrill Thomas, chair of La Sierra University’s Art+Design department. “Without visual communication…no organization, including the SDA church, would be able to communicate their message to an increasingly connected and visually literate society.” He added, “The only way we can influence the world is to engage with the world and connect our students to art and design careers to every industry around the world.” Alums of La Sierra’s arts programs over the decades have made their presence

The wonderment that filled the world at the sending of the first wireless has long since subsided. The airways carry their countless messages, but scarcely ever are we brought up short with the thought of the first words ever to travel by wireless: "What Hath God Wrought!" Surely the wonder is none the less real because it is now so much a part of our everyday lives. Why don©t you, too, just "take off the hat of your soul" and stand in awe before this wonder that is radio? Religious radio is a pair of feet walking into more homes than a parish worker could enter on his own feet in many days. Religious radio is a pair of hands offering help, consolation, friendliness to more lives than a parish worker could touch with his own two hands in many weeks. Religious radio is a voice speaking comfort and courage to more hearts than a parish worker could reach with his own voice in countless months. What a multiplication of service God has made possible through this wonder He has wrought! -DOROTHY GREEN in Outreach.
