How did you benefit from that information in the 10th of the year? Or this is theory just go week to week....

Better in practical ways!</div><div><br></div><div>Why road at X place and not Y. Why order these tons cement and not that much? Why cook 10 cups of rice for lunch at home and not 20? Why build  19 high schools and not 50?  Many at times real life situations are even more complex but our best answers are in the most accurate available information otherwise a guessing game.</div><div><br></div><div>Burama<span></span><br><br>On Sunday, October 26, 2014, Burama Jammeh &lt;<a href="mailto:[log in to unmask]"><a href="/scripts/wa-ICORS.exe?LOGON=A3%3D1410D%26L%3DGAMBIA-L%26E%3Dquoted-printable%26P%3D1077946%26B%3D--001a11c32bd6ba0c4f05065d89be%26T%3Dtext%252Fhtml%3B%2520charset%3Dutf-8%26pending%3D" target="_parent" >[log in to unmask]</a></a>&gt; wrote:<br><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex">what is it?<div><br></div><div>Articulating your dream building plan on a piece of paper?
