Portfolio managers often find that their portfolios have a level of realized risk, or realized active risk, that is different from their target, or predicted, values. This systematic bias of factor models is well known among practitioners yet is, strangely enough, ignored by risk model providers. |
Prices received rising so much is the first sign that businesses have increased power to pass on these energy-price increases. Energy will shortly be a major factor in the inflation equation, and this is what the Fed is worried about, so expect policy makers to keep pushing interest rates higher. |
Probably the hardest days are when the presenters come in for rehearsal. We're lucky. We have a person from the academy who tapes the pronunciations (of the nominees' names) for us, so we don't usually find out we're saying someone's name wrong, but still you're running everywhere making changes. |
Put (erosion of broadcast ratings, the on-demand mentality, youth's changing preferences) together, and what's moving south is an adherence to a fixed-schedule viewing pattern. What's emerging is a personal prime time, where you become the programmer, selecting among the options available to you. |
Quintessence is a dynamic, time-evolving, and spatially dependent form of energy with negative pressure sufficient to drive the accelerating expansion, ... Whereas the cosmological constant is a very specific form of energy - vacuum energy - quintessence encompasses a wide class of possibilities. |

Randy Covington (at WIS) leaned across the table and basically told them that this is an important news event in Columbia, South Carolina, that we're here to cover the news and we're going to cover the news. (Olympic officials) decided they had better play ball or lose control of the whole thing. |
Reaching 500 games is a great accomplishment. That's a lot of games for any coach. She's a great example of stability in our women's basketball program and it has translated to success on the floor. Carla has been a great representative of Weber State as a player and coach for more than 25 years. |
Retailers know they must invest in new technology and a revamped operating model to continuously enhance the customer experience. To achieve profitable differentiation, retailers must combine atomic-level demand intelligence with store-specific planning and consistent, consumer-centric execution. |
Ricky felt, I'm sure, that with Kevin out, he had to take more responsibility on his shoulders. We didn't guard him; we just fouled him. We put him on the line 20 times. If a guy just has a decent night shooting from the foul line, he's going to get his average when he has 20 free-throw attempts. |
Right after September 11, we went to England, and I was a mess, ... I was really depressed. ... I came home and settled down and got my head on straight. Before I knew it, I wanted to make another record and I had these songs. I remember saying, 'When did I write this?' ... I had no recollection. |
Right now there is no soil moisture to speak of anyway, and as we began getting toward late winter into early spring and we begin warming up, that would mean if we didn't get any rain that the soil moisture conditions would just worsen and we would have very, very difficult agriculture situation. |
Right now we're working without our safety net. Fall and winter precipitation typically recharges the soil profile and increase pond, stream and river levels. Without that precipitation, it becomes imperative that spring rains come and give us the collateral we need as we enter the summer season. |
Right now we’re under contract from our supplier so we’re not so much worried about the price as we are the availability, ... We’ll have to talk to all our departments about conserving and the emergency vehicles, there will be gas held back for them. … We may not be cutting grass as much. |
