At the beginning of the year, people start looking at valuations, they look at earnings forecasts. If you're a global fund manager you look at different markets, obviously, and maybe you came to realize that Japan does not offer the value it offered 12 or 18 months ago. |
At this moment in our nation's history, cross-cultural understanding and global relationships are critical to the world. Now is not the time to discourage or dissuade the world's future decision-makers from studying, teaching or conducting research in the United States. |
At times we turned the ball over a little too much, and we didn't try to spread the field enough. But the way we're playing right now is still relatively new. We only implemented it about four or five days ago, and you can't expect a great flow to the game all the time. |
Awareness needs to be raised for both health care providers and the general public. It is common now for cancer patients to finish their primary treatment unaware of their heightened health risks. They are therefore ill-prepared to manage their future health care needs. |
Aya brought us back by herself. Every time I turned around, Aya was going down there to lay up the ball. I think we just fed off of her and her energy. Knowing that she was sick, if she can have that much energy not being full strength, we can, too. We just fed off her. |
Back in September and October you're always wondering where you'll be on Selection Sunday. Everything that we've been through the last couple of weeks says a lot about our kids. We're a lot different team now coming out of the A-10 tournament than we were going into it. |

Beer and wine ought not to be sold at loss-leader prices like potato chips. We'll have to see who survives and how the system works, but I think the important thing is that there may be less distributors, and ultimately consumers will see less choice than they have now. |

Before the first dollar is spent, before the first experiment is done in a test tube or in a mouse or in people, we're going to tell you what you need to do at the end of the day. There will be a level of certainty and understanding that we think will foster innovation. |
