For the increasing number of companies in the region seeking venture capital and other forms of institutional sponsorship, the Investment Capital Conference provides an open and level playing field to meet top capital providers. I would encourage any entrepreneur or CEO to take advantage of the feast of financing sources and market insights that will be available at the 2006 Investment Capital Conference. |
He's a great, great player. He just didn't make shots (on Wednesday). They didn't do anything to take him out of his game. Sometimes it just goes like that. He just didn't make shots . but he'll bounce back. |
I don't know what to say. They have a good team, and I give them a lot of credit ... I thought we would play better than we did. I thought we would have a little more offense than that. |
I don't really feel like I need to fill his shoes in that sense. I feel like he was a very, very great player that left here, but I think our defense will make up for it. I don't think there will be a hitch in our defense at all. |
I feel like I'm finally going to get the opportunity to show what I can do. |
I think we probably had better time drops than anyone else there. Our focus is now for two weeks down the road. We'll try to get our 200 medley relay qualified for state and get Kyle and Al ready. Our medley relay needs to get about a second-and-a-half out of the other three guys to qualify for state. |
I'm trying to get my timing down. It's feeling a little bit better now. |
It's like we've got new guys out there every games. It's tough, because you'd like to have some kind of order in the lineup. But, there are no excuses and each of us has to carry our own load and get through it. |
Our work was awarded based on performance, certainly not political connections. We went through the process with -FEMA, the agency awarding the contracts, and we have always followed the scope of the work and done it to the best of our abilities. |

That shows you what kind of team we can be if we come out and play hard from the get-go. I think we shot 29 percent, we had a lot of turnovers but we still had a chance to win the game at the end. That shows what we can be if we just put a solid game together. |
The franchise tax is probably one of the stupidest taxes that we've ever come up with. It's nothing more than a tax in order to do business in Missouri. It runs counter to every economic development initiative that's been used to try to attract businesses to Missouri. |
The yen's got some way to run before Japanese officials are going to start to express any concern. This year's sell yen trade is still alive and well. |

This should support the dollar. Rate expectations have been the driving force in currency markets this year. |
