Accountants don't currently learn what motivates fraudulent conduct, how to spot the signals, how to prevent fraud from occurring and much more. As it stands now, auditors are fighting a war without being taught how to recognize the enemy. Until that changes, expect more heavy casualties. |
Actually, some kids have been asked to sell their work. Some kids have been encouraged by their friends and their families to maybe pursue a career. If they've been on the edge, maybe it made them realize -- especially if they won an award -- that they might pursue some art-related field. |
After 9/11, the SBA was doing all it could to help small businesses, not only in the areas directly affected by the terrorist attacks, but across the country as well. We are confident the SBA implemented the program in the way Congress intended and did so in an open and aboveboard manner. |
After talking with the doctors and our medical staff, I am going to be very careful not to bring Renaldo back until we are confident his knee is completely recovered and able to withstand the physical demands of SEC basketball. A final decision will be made closer to Saturday's game time. |
After the game, the team went outside and saw the sun, and it just seemed like it was meant to be. Later we went to a really nice restaurant. Everyone is having a great time. It's been a lot of fun, but always in the back of your mind, you think about the next game. That's why we're here. |
After two races, it's too early. Felipe could not defend his chances in his first Grand Prix in Bahrain, so I think he did a pretty good job (in Malaysia.) He's under a lot of pressure as well, so it's important that he can score points and he can demonstrate that he's a very good driver. |
Airlines say a large investment is required to train pilots for using instrument landing system CAT III B, but in the larger interest we decided that those airlines unprepared for fog (including those unable to use the system) by next winter will not be allowed to fly in and out of Delhi. |
All four of these guys have displayed great leadership qualities since the end of last season when the team became theirs as seniors. Each of them has his own style of leadership, and I am confident their teammates will listen to the messages they convey. They also are leaders by example. |
All of our kitchen, bath and flooring staff, and their displays, will be relocated to the first floor. The millwork, paint, tool and hardware departments will remain on the first floor to provide easy and convenient one-stop shopping. |

All we can worry about is the next game. We can't get caught up in the big picture and what's down the road and all that. Our goal has to be that day. If it's a game, then we need to worry about that. If it's a practice, we need to worry about that. One day. That's all we can think about. |
All we're focused on is Virginia Tech. We're going to review our notes from the previous match. Unfortunately, looking ahead is a great mistake that young kids make. They can get a little ahead of themselves. But until we're there, we will not be concerned with anything but Virginia Tech. |
Also, this market still needs the underpinning of improved corporate earnings, ... We've not got the evidence that that's happening in a meaningful way. I like the way it has stabilized following the sharp moves since Sept. 21, but I am concerned that not enough fundamentals are in place. |
Although execution remains solid, sales trends continue (to be) soft and key product initiatives have not played out during the last 12 months. We do not see material changes to the Barbie product line in calendar year 2006 and would not bet on a turnaround in calendar year 2007 just yet. |
