The economy's not a runaway train but it's not in danger of rolling over. When you see stable growth for the economy and a lower unemployment rate, you wonder, 'how much further does the Fed have to go? |
The effort is there. We don't have a lot of talent on the backboards. We are getting dominated on the glass, and that's just from Big East opponents. It's been a problem from the first week of practice. |
The evacuees who have been here since last week left before the hurricane struck and before there was a lot of standing water and loss of power. So we don't anticipate many cases from those individuals. |
The evidence is very clear. Half the stuff the president told us about Iraq -- the weapons of mass destruction, the trip to Niger, the purchase of uranium, and all that stuff -- we know that's not true. |
The existing state law is far too limiting and confusing. We need to bring our laws into the 21st century and recognize that there is a distinct difference between a sit-down restaurant and a nightclub. |

The fact that they didn't raise their dividend any further -- we expected 0.70 euros per share -- was a disappointment when viewed against the 11 percent increase in net profit. We would hold the stock. |
The fact that we've lost one of our last 13 pretty much is a good indicator of how we play. I don't think we've stolen a lot of games. We've worked hard, earned the points and played pretty good hockey. |
The failure by the DRC government to create a professional, truly unified army is contributing in a large measure to the continuing instability in the east and needlessly putting civilian lives at risk. |
The fair journalistic question is why they didn't call and get comments for their story from people who were in the room, such as Sandy Berger, and why they took until Friday afternoon to get that done, |
The fans have supported the team. They've taken to the team and fallen in love with some of our players. And they've certainly fallen in love with Henrik. And that's fine as long as they cheer our team. |
The Fed will deal with (the housing-jobs mix) by hiking in January and March and hoping that the housing softening will be sufficient to get them off the hook by May, though I think that's a close call. |
