One thing that characterizes Harriet is that she is extremely diligent. She's going to be prepared. The temptation will be great for some to try to match wits with her on constitutional issues. There's some danger that senators might demonstrate not her lack of knowledge, but their own. |
Online travel sales fared even better this year. The sector was up 35 percent versus 2002 and has more than more than doubled since 2001. Non-travel sales recovered impressively from war-related softness early in the year, with 2003 posting a healthy 22 percent total increase over 2002. |

Ontario recognizes it has a role to play in helping other provinces, but at the same time we must have the ability to fund our own public services without undermining our competitive position. A strong Canada needs a strong, workable system that allows all provinces to prosper and grow. |
Originally, the ground under the south side of the bridge was not built up like it is. Water is now diverted to the north side of the center piling and the dirt on the south side acts like a dam, eroding the north side. That needs to be cleaned out then the flooding would not be so bad. |
Our concept, just like last year, was we would hold some money back and hope that there would come a time at midseason where a player might be available. And we'd be in a position where another player would make a difference and we'd have the money to spend if we saw a player we wanted. |
Our customers have called and e-mailed us, requesting these odds be available to them during the trials. They are very interested in the outcome for these cases, Our customers like to bet on what they see and hear on television, and this case has no shortage of media attention and hype. |
Our early work that was done out there was really not comprehensive, ... It didn’t include all portions. For example, no one even looked in the building. There was a little sampling in and around the cap site, which is OK for the purpose it was done, but it was not comprehensive. |
Our first half, we were not very aggressive. In the second half, we played a lot better. If we're going to have any success as a team, it's going to have to be because of our aggressiveness and our effort. Because we have such a lack of talent, we have to make up for it in certain ways. |
Our game is just so fluid right now, and we exchange positions on the field. It really doesn't matter where the players play -- it's how they're going to communicate and cover for each other. I make it very clear from the beginning that it's going to be a team effort and not one player. |
Our goals are clear: maintain a superb standard of performance of core classics, renew and refresh our tradition with contemporary music of value and relevance, reach out to all segments of our heterogeneous society, tour nationally and abroad as ambassadors of the true face of America. |
Our history tells you over the last 13 years of the Gold and David Sullivan [era] we are there in the hour of need and I guess that might well be the case come the window. But we have to treat the issue with great care. There is no guarantee that by spending money you turn things round. |
Our number one priority should be to guarantee that all American worker get the benefits they have earned -- everyone should get back what they worked so hard to put into the system. Changing the Social Security system to drain the trust fund and cut benefits simply does not make sense, |
Our objective is to grow our OEM business by penetrating the OEM areas we're in more deeply rather than look for new business, though we'll do that too. For the first time we'll have a budget and resources directly focused on this. The response from customers has been very enthusiastic. |
Our seniors at No. 1 doubles were ready to go. They were first off the court, and they didn't have any issues. Some of our younger kids, I don't think they were mentally as ready to play as they needed to be. I have to take responsibility for that. It's my job to get them ready to play. |
