We had the game totally salted away. Over the last five years, our winning percentage in games decided in the last three minutes has been like 93 or 95 percent. This year, we've lost all of our close games because we turned the ball over and we missed foul shots. That's what happened out there tonight. |
We have a lot of work to do. To play the way we did (last night), it's kinda depressing to know how much we wasted. If we'd played like this all year, we would have had a higher seed, and maybe we'd have played North Carolina in the finals. I take this year as a loss, as a failure. We gypped ourselves. |
We have been citing improving execution as a key driver of earnings growth while conventional wisdom and headlines have credited cost cutting. Based on yesterday's results and questions on yesterday's conference call, we think investors are finally realizing that cost cutting is only part of the story. |
We have been transparent about our logistical support for the Indonesian security forces. Support for the government security institutions is provided pursuant to government requests for its legitimate requirements and is in accord with our contract of work, applicable laws ... and internal procedures. |
We have done that with Sony and NEC, which have machines in the U.S., although Sony's the only one with a major retail presence right now, ... But the bottom line is we're very pleased with the way this is going, and we think Toshiba has an impact on broadening that Crusoe penetration as we go forward. |
We have had praise from one end of Louisiana to the other about Amateur Radio operators, ... There was a communication to the EOC in Baton Rouge from FEMA that said, 'Ham radio is our prime communications with you, and they should get anything they need,' so FEMA recognizes the importance of ham radio. |
We have people in print who think about circulation, ad sales, producing and delivering newspapers, and they're very print-focused because they grew up there. They don't think about online. And we have a separate online organization that until today reported up to an entirely different management team. |
We have the guy that was there in 2000 with us, so he understands the defense can win some games. They had a lot of wins with that defense that year. We're not trying to compare ourselves to them at all. But that's something we can look to if we're trying to say we want to do the same things this year. |
We haven't quit, period. Ever. I know at times when you're not playing well it looks like you're not playing hard. . . . We've been playing at this pace the whole year. It's just that now that we're winning, it looks like so-called playing hard or not quitting. But these guys have played hard all year. |
We heard little hints about how Vernon Jordan might be a liar because of what he said about December 11th. And all of a sudden, just five minutes ago, this body heard for the first time, he's not only maybe a liar about the job search, but he's maybe a liar about destroying evidence, ... Words fail me. |
We hired the same architect specifically because they were doing the Cannery project, and the hope was that this project would link Monterey Street to the Cannery District. The city really felt strongly that linking the areas is really important - it will bring all those residents and workers downtown. |
We hope what people are feeling comes from the gesture this little girl makes for her family. It comes from some enlightened position. We hope the ending feels like redemption for the family, coming through Eliza. And we hope people ascribe meaning to it, and bring their own personal experiences to it. |
We improved our team score tonight and the balance beam was much better. It was a difficult loss. It felt like we have the ability to be like Michigan State. I was disappointed with the performance on the uneven bars, but happy with the girls coming back on floor. They did a great performance on floor. |
We knew this was going to be a tough stretch for us having to come up here to Central Michigan and then go to Eastern Michigan Saturday. I was happy with the way we started, but disappointed with the way we ended. We just weren't aggressive enough in the second half and we didn't match their intensity. |
We know that having a skilled teacher is one of the most important factors in improving student learning. South Dakota Counts provides a focused professional development program designed to deepen our teachers' knowledge of math content and pedagogy, and to help them understand how students learn math. |
