The concept behind Language of 3 is to provide what we call a performance setting. The three artists have the opportunity to perform their own work and to interact with one another. This provides new listeners with a great introduction to acoustic-based music and offers established fans three superb players on one stage. |
The consumer becomes more aware of the cost of their medical care. It's not just $20 (for a co-pay) to go to a doctor. You understand that it may cost $100 to $120 to go to that doctor. Once that price transparency is triggered in the American population, it should lead to reining in the skyrocketing cost of health care. |
The defense knows the offense pretty well. They know where the running plays are going. We made a lot of progress on defense. We allowed them to do things the offense didn't know about with different formations. It will be good to see on film how guys reacted. It is always a concern when the offense doesn't score points. |
The Democrats voted against this budget resolution, and it wasn't so much on the issues we wanted to have taken care of. Listening to the debate, each of us wants to protect Social Security in different ways. One can observe that we both want to do something about Medicare, but in different degrees and in different ways. |
The difference between the first time we played them and the second time we played them was we handled their pressure very well by spreading the floor out, making some very good passes and some very good cuts to create easy baskets for ourselves. Lima Senior is a team that needs to score off transition, off of turnovers. |

The doctor told me she would be on a ventilator for the rest of her life. My mother always told me that there were two things she didn't want. She didn't want to go to a nursing home and she didn't want to be on a breathing apparatus. I had them remove the ventilator two weeks ago. She was comfortable when she passed on. |
The Economic Growth Center will be a support organization for the region and convenient for all stakeholders. It sends a good message internally to us in the building to work together and collaborate, and externally to economic development people in the region. It's not about each one of us being successful individually. |
The Energy Policy Act of 2005 is a blank check to the federal government's energy industry friends, and Islander East is trying to cash it, ... State regulators twice rejected the proposed Islander East pipeline because it poses a significant threat to water quality and critical marine resources in the Long Island Sound. |
The experience level they bring, there's no question there is a value to that, ... In the end, for me, it's more about having the best players that we can have on the roster. I think you have to look at it that way. You have to be cognizant of the overall makeup of your team, but you try and get the best players you can. |
The fact is, the federal law is perfectly clear. At the heart of this operation was a federal crime. The president has already conceded that he personally ordered that crime and renewed that order at least 30 times. This would clearly satisfy the standard of high crimes and misdemeanors for the purpose of an impeachment. |
The fact that Jim Cooper helped with this is very significant. He knows what the state is looking for, what it is asking for. He's a published author in state bridges. His books are used by state government in making historical decisions. The fact that they are using his text on the Ceylon bridge is very important to us. |
The Fed pretty much said we're on hold for now. Meanwhile, Thursday morning's GDP [gross domestic product] report is expected to show third-quarter growth of 6 percent or better. You combine those two factors, where you have growth and the Fed's going to let it ride for a while, and that's a great environment for stocks. |
The first half we probably shared the ball as well as we have all year. Zones give us a chance to get open looks. When teams get up on us and pressure us man-to-man, it causes problems for us. There were a couple sequences in the first half where we made seven or eight passes, side to side. Zones are usually good for us. |
The fundamentals for sustained M&A activity remain strong, and deal activity will be driven more by a buoyant economy, industrial restructuring, ongoing privatization and continuing regulatory and A-share reform. Major deals can also be expected in outbound investment as Chinese companies gain greater confidence in 2006. |
