In some ways, we -- along with many of our peer institutions -- have allowed rankings to define us, not only to the outside world, but also to ourselves. It is folly to distil all that makes an individual school unique into a simple rank. There is no such thing as a number one school. |
In the case of these two siblings I was really interested in exploring how two people who grew up in the same damaged and strange household emerged with such divergent world views. I don't mind at all being the bossy one or the pushy one. She was a very juicy character for me to play. |
In the early stages of a pregnancy, the Government cannot intervene with a woman's right to choose. That is it, plain and simple. Guess what. We are not going to be big brother or sister, as the case may be. We are going to allow a woman, her doctor, and her God to make that decision. |

In the past, I have not putted Bermuda well. But as I've played more and more, listened to Bones, my caddie, who grew up playing Bermuda greens, I'm feeling much comfortable on these surfaces. Last year, I putted very well (at Doral), and I should hopefully have a good week this week. |
In the second half, we didn't stop them. I have to give my guys credit. We had the chance to put it away. When it was tied with three minutes to go in the game, we didn't do what you have to do to win a game like this. We were impatient and we forced the issue and it cost us the game. |
Industrial demand in the southwest and North Las Vegas submarkets continues unabated due to its location, a growing economy and the continued expansion of resort and construction industries. The declining speculative vacancy rate is going to put upward pressure on rents in the future. |
Intelligent design does not belong in a high school biology class. ... It is an inherently religious doctrine that is a modern form of creationism, and this shell game has to end. This board wanted to trash evolution, not to teach it. It wanted to impose its religious views on others. |
Intuit made their bed five years ago when they said they wouldn't be updating QuickBooks for the Mac. Now they're doing the same with QuickBooks for the Web. Obviously, they don't consider the Mac experience as important, but we do. Those who like the Mac platform should check us out. |
Investors are unable to get a clear view on 2006 because there's so much noise in the numbers. There's the competitive environment in Spain, there's the impact from Kraft activities and there were currency swings. It doesn't in any way impact the progress made on the domestic product. |
Is the PC dead? I definitely don't think so. I think there's a lot of legs left in the PC. We're going to look at and continue to invest in information devices. I still own 100 million shares in this company, and I'm going to do everything in my power to insure this company's success. |
Issues around congressional powers and individual standing and access to the courts, these are all critical issues that are going to affect us all, but they're a little more arcane and take a little more explanation than whether or not safe abortion services are going to be available. |
It (the break in talks) is because everyone is burned out and needs a break. I don't see how the delay helps our leverage. We're breaking records (for shipments) every month for the last three months down in LA. Why would next month be any better (for a work stoppage) than this month? |
It became popular amongst celebrities, so people started buying it by the masses. It's just like today, when a famous person scoops up a bike, people are sure to want to purchase one like it. Motorcycles set trends. It also introduced an auto-transmission still used right up to today. |
It boils down to a bunch of lessons I learned early on in my life from Frank Carney. Lessons about being different, about standing out from the competition. Lessons about not worrying what the competition is doing, just being the best you can. Everything else will take care of itself. |
