Mike inherited a somewhat difficult situation with 21 games remaining in the 2003-04 season, but he did an outstanding job of steering us into the playoffs, ... We very much look forward to having Mike return for a full NHL season as the Blues' head coach and give him the opportunity to execute his overall vision for this team and a plan for success. |
Mortgage rates are in a holding pattern right now as the country tries to smooth out the knots in the economy. Low rates are a real boost to an already thriving housing market. Over the last few months, the number of mortgage applications for home purchase has averaged near record levels...which suggests no immediate slowdown in housing anytime soon. |
Most banks and credit unions recognize that providing strong authentication is an essential first step in meeting FFIEC requirements and maintaining the trust of their online customers. However, the cost and complexity of solutions developed for the enterprise environment, such as hardware tokens, are prohibitive for large-scale consumer deployments. |
Most modern candies, however, derive their licorice flavoring from the anise herb rather than an extract from the licorice root itself. Consequently, eating licorice-flavored candy is probably not a means of cavity prevention. I look forward to seeing more research done on these compounds that have shown to inhibit the chief cavity-causing bacterium. |
Most of the guys here play college hockey and we get it every time from the student sections so it's something that should be expected. I definitely thought it was anti-American, but at the same time a lot of guys in the locker room thrived on that. Almost every Canadian I've met is a great person. That's just hockey. They didn't like the other team. |
Moving forward, our strategic objective is to continue to increase net asset value and cash flow per share. We are pursuing a four-point plan: growth from existing core operations; expanding our capacity for the future, developing attracting and retaining the best people in the industry, and driving new opportunities from exploration and acquisition. |
My background is in leading companies that offer software products and service solutions to vertical markets, so I feel that this is a business that I can help grow. The current management team is impressive, and the board has other capable directors already in place. The future for this business looks bright, and I am excited to be part of the team. |
My concern is we're going to be developing a lot of 10-acre lots for enthusiasts who want to own horses, but we're not going to have an industry. We need to preserve the farms and the way of doing that is giving breeders and owners a better return on their investment, and the best way to do that now is the revenue we would receive from slot machines. |
My focus is we won 79 games. That's a bad year. Anybody who sits in this seat and thinks that's acceptable, that's wrong. The urgency for me is to rectify coming off a bad year. If the White Sox hadn't won, we still have 79 in the win column and that's never going to be acceptable as long as I'm doing it, and we have to try like heck to get it fixed. |
No, they aren't. My mom and dad are the same way I am because they taught me. They told me that it is something that you have to pray about because you don't know what place is for you. Any other questions that come out about free-agent stuff, we are going to have to leave alone because this is more so about the team right now, and that is the focus. |
Nobody's going to replace Herb Brooks and what he did in 1980 for USA Hockey. But I think that Peter realizes this is his opportunity as a coach. He's had two opportunities as a player. He's grateful for the opportunity and he certainly respects what goes along with representing your country and just what the whole international competition is about. |
Not only is he as mentally acute as the average 77-year-old, he's as acute as the average 27-year-old. He has a phenomenal mind and very good judgment, ... People close to the decision-making at the Fed are almost unanimously in great praise of him, as I would be. I think it's a wonderful thing for the Fed and for the country that he's being kept on. |
Nothing characterizes the tradition of college football more than the Georgia-Florida game in Jacksonville. It is one of the nation's most unique and enduring rivalries and we are excited that Jacksonville will continue to host this very special event that has meant so much not only to both universities, but also college football on a national level. |
Nothing that had real substantive punch in the government's original proposal was watered down. The government's filing today is designed to give Microsoft the sense that the process in the remedy phase was carried out correctly, and it provides the judge with ammunition that he could use as a rationale for the measures contained in his final ruling. |
Now, even if you're not looking for the information - if you're looking for it, it's everywhere - but even if you're not, you log on to your e-mail, and there it is, hitting you in the face. It's very difficult to wait until prime time to see this stuff, because it's all over the place. That was a problem as well, and we should have seen that coming. |
