We've lost 450,000 barrels a day of production, which is significant. Shell hasn't given us much of an idea of when they will be able to restore output. This is a pretty reasonable reaction given that we don't know how long it will be before the production is back to normal. |
We've made a lot of upgrades and improvements. We've reconfigured all the booths to create a pleasant flow and a better feel, better access. We've moved around some of our workshop tents so there's larger and more comfortable space for people to participate in the workshops. |
We've moved very deliberately. The program is both structured and measurable. Accountability is essential, so the companies and mentors must agree on measurable objectives for their work together. Quarterly progress reviews and other assessments keep the businesses on track. |
We've partnered with Babcock and Brown, which is a large energy-oriented investment bank, and they will both be helping up with arranging financing for the construction and long-term for the project. They also have access to a fairly large number of turbines for the project. |
We've seen some good things from him from Day One. His route-running is good. He's getting better, but he's not where we think he can be yet. He hasn't taken it to the end zone yet. He's going to get better as we go down the stretch, but I'm happy with what he's done so far. |
We've tried to stress to our players that they shouldn't think the worst. No one is having any success calling people in these areas. Our No. 1 priority is the well-being both physically and emotionally of these young men. This just wouldn't have been a good day to practice. |
We've won some games we shouldn't. We probably lost some games we should've won. We just need to focus on getting better. If a few weeks down the line we're still in the hunt, we can talk about it later. But it's too early for our team to be talking about anything like that. |
Weber State has some conflicts with the Big Sky events so we will probably continue to rotate the tournament between Weber State and the E Center. The University of Utah has also expressed some interest in having the tournament at the Huntsman Center so that's an option too. |
What happened to Rich happens to a lot of really talented young pitchers. You come in, nobody's seen you, and you kill everyone. But once you start killing people, see, they start paying attention. They send scouts, they study videotape, and they adjust to what you're doing. |
What I said is demonstrably true. The record and votes that I cited on behalf of Senator Kerry are easy to cite and check. President Bush's record of honorable discharge from the National Guard is also just as easy to check. This kind of political discourse is reprehensible. |
What I've noticed over the last 10 years is that people here are not happy with the agenda the Legislature is following in Madison. There is widespread opinion that 16 years is long enough, and there is probably a point of diminishing returns when you are in office too long. |
What I've seen is that it's not necessarily that the homes are too big, but they're much larger than the homes adjacent to them. The older homes are a lot smaller. When [the new homes] are adjacent to a small ranch or a small Cape Cod, you're really impacting your neighbors. |
What it seems we're seeing is the aftermath of a lot of different circumstances converging last year. If that's the case, then there isn't too much to worry about. If it's a situation where people are turned off lower-grade debt for good, then we have a lot more to consider. |
What precipitated the S&L crisis (is that) depositors had the right to go into the S&L and demand their deposits back today. The (agency's) deficit would be paid out decades into the future. A retiree can't go to the (agency) and say, 'Give me my money today in a lump sum,' |
What we are discussing is what we have to do, the very clear undertakings given by the European Council at a summit last December and again this June, to lead to an opening of negotiations on October 3rd. I will say that I am reasonably hopeful that this deadline can be met. |
