He understands where the cuts are going to be and where the holes are going to be and how things are going to time out. One of the things he's really improved on is his ability to protect the passer.

He's the closer.

en Our positive financial performance during 2005 is a credit to the strength and dedication of our management team and our employees.

We are encouraged with the progress we have made thus far and we will continue to seek opportunities to improve our results and diversify our revenue base in 2006.
