The cosmological constant was a vacuum energy (the energy of empty space) that kept gravity from pulling the universe in on itself, ... A problem with the cosmological constant is that it is constant, with the same energy density, pressure, and equation of state over time. Dark energy, however, had to be negligible in the universe's earliest stages; otherwise the galaxies and all their stars would never have formed. |
The ease in which she was winning her first few matches just shows how fast she's back. I told her also after the match I think it's just gonna take two or three months and she's gonna be able to handle the top three, four. The pace is obviously different from three years ago. But once she starts playing a few matches at that level, she's going to be able to handle it. I'll be very surprised actually after Wimbledon if she's not in the top five. |
The film is driven by coincidence and preconception, ... Each character, whether they be rich, poor, black, white, Mexican or Iraqi, suffers these preconceptions about the other as a manifestation of personal frustration. You see the characters' motivation and see that behind the belligerent cop is a man in pain, behind the frustrated housewife is a woman who feels let down. Racism is just one part of the much bigger puzzle that the film offers. |
The impediments are really technical. The biggest problem is perceived lack of quality, reliability. A lot of people are still uncertain that their Internet connection will be reliable and on all the time. There are some reports of voice quality not being as good as traditional lines. And there are questions about 911. But those are all rapidly being worked out. And the marketplace is showing that the numbers of subscribers are growing steadily. |
The Liberals knew the Reform was going to stand up and question them on minute details about spending. So what they would do is put some of their most controversial policies forward, but they would leak something to the Reform Party about a minor spending glitch, someone spending too much in a restaurant. And they knew Question Period would then focus on that small matter and the big matter would get by, and it worked until the Reform caught on. |
The new O ROKR furthers our successful collaboration with Motorola by combining the best of both companies. We're integrating technologies to drive true innovation that changes the way consumers think about and experience personal electronics. Our innovations, our inventions, are raising the bar for functionality and fashion by taking features and functions that consumers most need and want and integrating them into what they're already wearing. |
The only thing I can guarantee to our fans is that we are going to give an effort and try to play aggressive hockey for 60 minutes. I know our team is in better shape than it has been in the past because our testing shows that. One of my primary concerns after the season was that we have to be in better shape. We want to practice and do everything at a higher tempo. We're trying to change the whole culture here as what it takes to be successful. |
The PPI numbers look pretty good. I think the important thing to look at is when this thing turns around, and I don't know that we yet have a clear picture that we definitely are in a slowdown mode, although there are some signs that we have slowed down, which sectors are likely to do well. And I think the important thing, if you look past the last two weeks, is that there is really a resurgence of the leadership of technology and biotechnology, |

The spotlight is often on the talent acquisition, development, and retention challenges faced by large organizations. But small and mid-sized businesses also confront many human capital management issues. We're pleased Sage Software, a company focused on HR and payroll solutions for small and mid-sized businesses and organizations, will fund this track aimed at addressing the specialized and unique talent management needs of these organizations. |
The thing about speed, ... is that it makes everyone do everything a little quicker. Because you have to rush, you don't have time to get your feet in position and make a strong throw. You don't field the ball cleanly; you don't get that good grip on the ball. Speed is the one thing that there's no answer for. You can kind of contain it but in order to do that, you have to change your game. If the runner has done that, he's accomplished his job. |
The value of Mirage Networks' NAC solution is resonating with our customers and partners because we are solving a real business pain. Threats don't stop when a device comes on the network. So, unlike many, our NAC solution defends against threats spawned in the network interior. Winning the SC Magazine Award is recognition of the benefits of our unique approach: that effective security doesn't have to be a bigger pain than the pain it's solving. |
The worst thing we can do is bury our heads in the sand and pretend it can't happen again, ... 'The War Within,' even though it didn't do well at the box office, on DVD it's going to be reminding people for years to come. Because it's a powerful, powerful movie. If we can make a movie that reminds people over and over again that you always have to be vigilant or 9/11 can happen again, then it's the most patriotic thing I could ever possibly do. |
There are some areas in Africa where people get one infected bite per night, and there is nowhere else better than there to research. By putting the Internet in there, [scientists] can perform much better, leading-edge [trials] wherever they're willing to go because they know they will have access, can publish remotely and are not replicating research done elsewhere. They can interact a great deal more easily and turn things around much quicker. |
