The important aspect of this show is the number of boats. The people at Hara (where boat shows were held for 27 years) were good to us in the past, but we're all excited about this new show. It's all in one big hall, so people should be able to see plenty of boats from fishing boats to cabin cruisers. |
The individual woman is required a thousand times a day to choose either to accept her appointed role and thereby rescue her good disposition out of the wreckage of her self-respect, or else follow an independent line of behavior and rescue her self-respect out of the wreckage of her good disposition. |
The initiative is a severe limitation of the number of crimes that can be considered for a life sentence. It involves the release of thousands of felons that juries, judges and prosecutors ... have decided ... should serve their sentences. We would hope that the people would pay attention to our vote. |
The Internet gave the Chinese people a way around their government's censorship, so the Chinese government has picked off U.S. technology providers one by one and made them gatekeepers instead of gateways. As long as you have companies with competing motives, there is the danger of further censorship. |
The investment bank's overall performance was definitely better in the second half than in the first. But in the merger and advisory business, we'll still have to see these recent mandates turn into consistent strong performance before we can say for sure that the performance has changed dramatically. |
The key issue here is self-disclosure and self-reporting. It was Halliburton's own internal, rigorous system of checks and balances that identified the irregularity. ... When the irregularity was discovered, KBR removed the company in question from consideration for any future work as a subcontractor. |
The key number in this report, in our view, is the rise in the supply of homes for sale. There are now 14.4 percent more homes for sale than a year ago, while actual sales are up just 3.3 percent. With mortgage demand slipping a bit and supply rising, price gains cannot continue at their current pace. |
The kids get to sleep in their own beds, they stick with their normal routine, [and] they're eating the same places they normally eat. As far as playing, we're in a place where 6,000 fans are going to be behind us pushing us and there definitely is an energy level [that] our guys generate off of that. |
The kids set out to build on the things we have done in the last three years. I like the camaraderie. The best thing about this team is that it is a team.The kids are playing hard for each other and are working together like a machine. No one overshadows anybody and they are all just working together. |
The kids want to go down and face the best competition in the state and see what we can do. They're not so much interested in sending a message; they just want to go down there and have a season-best performance, and that will serve notice. This is a really good mid-season check to see where we're at. |
The last place I wanted to hit was the right bunkers so I was trying to guard from that and I overguarded and hit the tree and it came out. I got a great break and then I hit a nice shot into a divot. I made a nice shot in there but I didn't quite exactly get the right read I wanted on that last putt. |
The limits of our military power must be obvious to all, and domestically we are divided as we have not been since Vietnam. So what should we do now? Can we think honestly about those with grievances against the U.S.? Can we think how to conclude the war in Iraq, how to offset the forces of extremism? |
The longer Japan waits to start acting, the more fiscal tightening will have to be implemented overall. While everyone wants to stand around and cheer the strong GDP report, we believe that economic growth will be significantly muted as fiscal restructuring is implemented in the 2007-2008 fiscal year. |
The magnetic data storage industry is moving toward patterned magnetic media, where information is stored in small magnetic 'islands' similar to the ones we have been studying. It appears quite feasible that magnetic memory systems could be endowed with logic capability, thus merging memory and logic. |
The meaning for the average person watching the ... demonstrations is that this is a very serious movement, a large issue, and it's not going to go away. People now have a face and they have a story that goes along with what they had previously viewed as a pretty abstract concept, illegal immigration. |
