There can be a little bit of a double standard in some offices about this. When men have pictures of family, people think, 'How sweet.' But when women have those same pictures, there might be the question of where her attention and where her focus are. |
There had been a physical altercation between one lady and another bar patron, all over the use of a stall or something that happened in the bathroom. According to the report, there was quote, unquote some sort of sexual activity going on in the stall. |
There has been a slight softening in the economic data. Profits generally grow in line with the cycle, so if the economic data is growing sideways, or is not as strong as it was, then to what extent does that indicate (a) troubled recovery in profits?. |
There has been an enormous profusion of companies. Innovation has developed so rapidly in Silicon Valley beginning with the semiconductor base that we now see maybe 50 different categories of industries here representing over 5,000 different companies. |
There has been marked increase in the incidence of larger and more deadly explosive devices, including suicide bombings. The perpetrators of these attacks have shown a growing intent to target civilians, government officials and reconstruction workers. |
There has been struggle getting the panel on its feet, and it isn't yet fully on its feet, but it's moving in that direction. And now everyone with an interest needs to watch carefully and ensure that the panel can do its business without interference. |
There is a certain kind of respect for authenticity today that there wasn't back in the days when they did 'Cleopatra,' where everything looked like a giant motel. People want to have it be authentic in the look, and authentic in the way people behave. |
There is definitely an increasing level of tensions down here and the harpooners are certainly starting to take shots that perhaps a week or two weeks ago they would not have taken. Yesterday took it to a new level — we are very concerned about that. |
There is no doubt that the great majority of the work called 'modern' is the product of degenerates and perverts . . . As owners of a great Van Eyck, if we take a part by refusing to pollute our gallery with this filth we shall render a service to Art. |
There is no reason to mandate all of those cameras unless you one day see them being linked up to the city's 911 system. We have perhaps reached that moment of critical mass when people ... want to have a dialogue about how much of this is appropriate. |
There is nothing politer than this. It's literally a camera looking at people -- a radio that sees things -- but it's completely private. You see a white ghost. There is nothing that gives any indication of race or sex, so there is no racial profiling. |

There is this psychological game. It has not been a pre-Christmas sale this year, it's been 'special offers'. Encouraging people to shop earlier helps stores with stock and planning. It means there is not so much to be drastically cut in the last week. |
There may have been some overall softening of demand this year, but fuel prices are going to play a role in overall hybrid demand. We're starting to come to the realization that the fuel-price spike that we thought was seasonal is now becoming less so. |
There really has been a lot of interest in a number of businesses both across private equity and across the trade sector. The interest that we've had expressed to us has been unsolicited and we've simply been filing it away and it's quite a thick file. |
