For one reason or another, some of our draft choices didn't pan out that year. But some of these other [free-agent] guys did. In some cases, we kept the free agents over the draft choices. We could have kept the draft picks just to save face. But we really liked a lot of these guys, and they've helped us. |
For the players it's fantastic that they're doing well. Hopefully, for them, they go to the World Cup. I played in one (in Mexico in 1986) and it's a great experience. For us, it's the same plan, just with different people. The personnel changes and we'll just tweak it to make it suit and to make it work. |
For the vast majority of kids who are late, there is no communication between the parent and the school. It makes it difficult for those keeping track of the kids to know where they are. I understand how that happens. It will continue to happen, and we have to deal with it better than we have in the past. |

From an intangible standpoint, it's about things like effort, mental toughness, the ability to stay focused and execute, and be a little relentless in the way you try to go about your work, ... We're gladiators out there. We're modern-day gladiators and that mental toughness has got to permeate your team. |
From the start, we were building the case against Hussein and looking at how we could take him out and change Iraq into a new country. And, if we did that, it would solve everything. It was about finding a way to do it. That was the tone of it -- the president saying, 'Fine. Go find me a way to do this.' |
From what I've seen, I think the competitors blew the opportunity. They used it as an opportunity to strut their stuff and say how great they are. It would have been smart for at least one of them to take the high road and do something like offer emergency service using their product for free for example. |
Funds allocated to our Community Fund for distribution in 2006 will come from pledges and donations made during our fall workplace giving campaign and other contributions received throughout 2006.

Gary has told me he wants to stay here next season, which he is contracted to, and that is really good news. He was worried he wasn't getting chances to play earlier in the season, but that has changed because he has been a regular in the side of late and to be honest, he has been one of our best players. |
Gideon is unaware of it; he's grown up in it, and accepts the shortcomings until -- it's sort of a typical Everyman situation -- you accept the shortcomings until you get shoved up against an uncomfortable wall by them and have to look at them. And that's what happens to him. It's not a voluntary process, |

Given that they waited until the market closed on that day, and on the day of their annual meeting, it's obvious that they didn't want to tell anybody about it until that point. And if they didn't put him up for re-election, that would have announced to the world that there would be a parting of the ways. |
Given the increasingly competitive global marketplace, successful companies require a sophisticated and up-to-date understanding of trends and events, their likely impact and the choices they face. We provide that essential perspective and the ability to help shape and execute results-oriented strategies. |
Glenn isn't expecting to hold his existing place on the list. He was fairly high last year and he is realistic about things this time around. We will meet with Cricket Australia and find out officially where he is in the next couple of weeks. But he is expecting to slip a bit, just hopefully not too much. |
