Inside and outside, you have tons of rainwater, and that runs out and you get that dingy, murky water, ... One thing about that is, the farther away you are from a big river, the cleaner your water will stay. I'd say, you go up somewhere around Topsail, and the water's probably clear up there already. |

Investors are always seeking greater consideration of their tax obligations and investing requirements, and we continue to develop alternatives which allow for that. By providing clients access to many of our programs as funds or managed accounts, we can accommodate specific needs to a greater degree. |
Investors know that what was going on on the Street with analysts was wrong, was corrupt and had to be changed, ... The smart business leaders are changing their ways. Those who are putting their heads in the sand are saying, 'Let's get rid of the cops who watch to make sure things get done honestly.' |
It (making his debut) was even more than I thought it would be, ... I was in the bullpen when the phone rang. When I heard my name, my heart felt like it was going to come out of my chest. I'll remember everything about this day for the rest of my life: the pitcher, the count, the pitch, my teammates. |
It affects everyone. It's not a comfortable feeling right now for any club, I would speculate. If you're making decisions and evaluating players in terms of looking at your needs, you're frustrated because you can't nail down or get a solid answer for those financial questions until something happens. |
It all comes down to who wins and who loses. There has been concern on the part of many people that private and parochial schools have advantages because they don't have (enrollment) boundaries.

Her worth was her beauty, and in this episode, she's learning that she's not all that anymore, but she still thinks she is. |
It cannot be understated that by accepting our amendment, both the Republican leader and the chairman of the Armed Services Committee agree that the administration needs to come forward and explain to Congress and the American people its strategy for success and completing our mission in faraway Iraq. |

It comes through as energy, and I basically act as a radio, and I interpret what it is that's coming through to me. And I get it in three basic ways: I see, hear and feel this energy, this information. It's not conversational, it's not like I am hearing them speaking to me the way I'm speaking to you. |
It comes with experience. He has a lot of trust in us. He believes the decisions we make out there are going to be the right ones. That's the way we practice. He doesn't want us out there thinking, and he thinks it's harder for teams to guard other players when you don't know what they're going to do. |
It doesn't change anything for me, the goal is still to have the guy healthy and ready for April 2. The biggest thing is we don't have to push him. If we can get Cordero pitching in a game by March 10 or 12, I'll be happy even if it's a 'B' game or a Triple-A game where we can monitor what he's doing. |
