We are working past the deadline and through the night to reach new agreements with the USWA. We are encouraged by the substantial progress in negotiations but there are some remaining issues and the parties are continuing to work diligently to resolve these as soon as possible. |
We believe Compaq's sustenance is dependant on its execution, which has anything but stellar in the enterprise hardware and services segment, ... While the PC divisions - consumer and commercial - generate half of overall revenue, they represent only a tenth of operating income. |
We believe that the long-awaited shift from soft to hard data is evidence of a recovery in euro zone private consumption has started, and will likely proceed gradually and modestly over the coming months, in line with the expected improvement in household real disposable income. |
We believe we're moving ever closer to the light at the end of the valuation tunnel on eBay. We find it interesting and amusing to note that as investors' risk/reward ratio had dramatically improved, the market has become increasingly jittery about the future prospects for eBay. |
We call on all governmental and inter-governmental actors in West Africa to ensure Taylor promptly appears for trial. The U.N. peacekeeping forces in Liberia and Sierra Leone will need to play their role to ensure justice can be done while stability in West Africa is maintained. |
We call on all those elected officials with ties to Brent Wilkes and Mitch Wade to come clean about whether Wade and Wilkes procured 'in any fashion' sexual partners on their behalf ... particularly those members among the top recipients of campaign contributions from these men. |
We came into the game as a very good rebounding team and nobody had done that to us this year. I don't know if we got tired or what but give them credit they just killed us on the boards the last 10 minutes of the game, I mean everything went to them and that was the difference. |
We came out putting the pressure on. I think their home field advantage and the crowd helped get them back in the game. The momentum shifted, but we fought to the end. It's a shame it had to come down to penalty kicks, but that's the way it goes. Both teams did a phenomenal job. |
We caught them when they were playing terrific basketball. And we caught them off guard. I could see it on tape that they just didn't expect us to be as good as we were. That may have been, at particular points, as good as we've played offensively. We really, really played well. |
We chose SAS for its scalability and focus on integration. The combined software solutions give us a foundation on which to grow. By incorporating SAS' analytical expertise into our daily business processes, we will be able to swiftly recognize opportunity and quickly act on it. |
We come from the days when rap used to agitate the mainstream. Now it's more buddy-buddy. That doesn't sit well with me. So what we need is [a bit more] street politics, bringing up issues, agitating you a little bit. And nothing can agitate you more now than a terrorist threat. |
We continue to believe that inventory levels in the channel are as much as 60 percent higher than historical levels. We are modeling revenues to decline on a sequential basis in the March and June quarters, with a mild pickup in top line growth starting in the September quarter. |
We continue to see very rapid economic growth which has been a problem for the Fed all along. We have not seen a material increase in labor costs and that's what I think is going to be the ultimate problem in the economy somewhere down the road, though clearly it's not imminent. |
We did a good job of fighting back, but when you are down by two or three touchdowns at the end, that is when you have to start winging it and hope for the best, ... Unfortunately, when you get down that much and our running game wasn't going real well, it's what you have to do. |
We did a lot of better things; we played the same way for 60 minutes that we did for 45 minutes in Carolina. We played good. We fought really hard. Ottawa is a team that everyone talks about their speed, but to me it's about their competitiveness. Every board battle is critical. |
