For the most part, everyone is a gentleman here. They express the strengths of their kid and try to put the best foot forward for their wrestler. And a lot of the times it's like politics. There is politics within the coaching ranks. Sometimes that helps you and sometimes that hurts you. |
For us, this administration has become overly reliant on this type of approach. It's just another name for voluntary partnership. It would be like saying we're just going to rely on voluntary baggage screening to provide airport security. It's good as far as it goes, but it's not enough. |
Forget winning and losing. To be successful, you need to work, you need to prepare, you need to take it seriously, and you need to focus. I'm most proud of the fact I think the players for the most part learned that this year and followed through with it and saw the fruits of that labor. |
Fort Carson is the No. 1 requested post for enlisted members in the military, so clearly this community is attractive to young people. With the outdoor opportunities, whether it's skiing or hiking or hunting or fishing or any of those, you can't find a better place than Colorado Springs. |
Four refineries may come back in the next two or three weeks. For another three or four refineries at least, we will probably have to wait for more than a month. We have seen some efforts by the U.S. government telling people not to buy gasoline if they don't need it, to conserve energy. |
From my perspective, it's a little too early to predict that what we're seeing is in fact a slowdown in any (national) economy, ... Having said that, if in fact (an economic slowdown) does happen, I think what you'll see is a reallocation of technology spending dollars, not a diminution. |
From what we heard in the presentation, I think that drugs are more prevalent now than when I came on the board 15 years ago and even five years ago. Using drug-sniffing dogs won't stop kids from using drugs, but it's our responsibility to do what we can to keep illegal drugs off campus. |
Fund managers are asserting that a slowdown in telecom spending is here for foreseeable future. As far as investors needing a dedicated technology fund in their portfolio, it's not essential because many growth funds will give the exposure and diversification they need, without the risk. |
Gary Baxter has very good size for his position, with tackling and coverage skills. His tenacious play and extra effort is also impressive. Gary's experience on a dominant defense and the attitude he brings to the game will certainly enhance our efforts on the defensive side of the ball. |
Gay is not one of those writers who vomits on a page, then goes back and rewrites. He never moves on to a next sentence until he's perfectly happy with one he's written before. So he'll struggle with the opening paragraph of a chapter for weeks. This is laborious, not to mention painful. |
Gen Con has quickly earned a special place in the heart of our city. We are thrilled at Gen Con's decision to become an annual event on our convention calendar and promise to meet and exceed gamers' expectations for outstanding visitor service and value in Indianapolis for years to come. |
GM's success earlier this summer has really taken its toll on inventory levels for several models, limiting their ability to have another terrific month. And there appears to be relatively little momentum left in GM's employee discount incentive program now that it is in its third month. |
God requireth not a uniformity of religion to be enacted in any civil state; which enforced uniformity (sooner or later) is the greatest occasion of civil war, ravishing of conscience, persecution of Christ Jesus in his servants, and of the hypocrisy and destruction of millions of souls. |
Going forward, sales guidance could still be conservative for the third quarter and on gross margins we now have a more positive number. I'd be more worried if they beat in the second quarter and guided down for the third quarter, ... But the stock is just priced to perfection right now. |
Greg is a seasoned veteran with leadership experience in operations and finance, ... His broad, balanced understanding of the enterprise gives him the insights needed to direct our corporate staffs, guide our corporate strategy and offer good counsel at the highest levels of the Company. |
