The Supreme Court enjoyed renewed respect under Rehnquist's leadership, ... Chief Justice Rehnquist restored sanity to our criminal justice system, respect for our nation's allocation of power between the states and the federal government, and freedom in the public square to people of faith. |
The Supreme Court would benefit from the addition of a justice who has real experience as a practicing lawyer. The current justices have all been chosen from the lower federal courts. A nominee with relevant non-judicial experience would bring a different and useful perspective to the court. |
The switch from working in a highly structured environment with a clear systems development methodology with a longer-term work schedule and budgets vs. 'get it done, get it out, get going' — for some IT people, that raises concerns about quality. Deadlines are more important than quality. |
The thing is, Micah Downs, hopefully after today, will not warrant any of our thought process over the next couple months. Our focus needs to be on this team. Obviously, he chose not to be part of it. This is not something that we have enjoyed dealing with at all, and this chapter is closed. |
The thing people have to keep in mind is that we have two different driving styles, ... We like our cars to have a different feel. When you're so dependent on the [aerodynamic] packages we're on this year, if one driver doesn't take to it as well because he doesn't like the feel, it's tough. |
The thinking in the back of our heads was we had other players scoring goals last year. It was a matter of whether they matured over that year, and whether that maturity would compensate or develop the type of attack Nick and Kevin provided us last year. I think those players are doing that. |
The thinking was, those levees are just protecting farmland. But time goes on. We continue to develop, but we are dragging this 1.3 with us. We upgrade the levee system after (Hurricane) Betsy with better flood protection, but that 1.3 is still there. History has moved, but the corps hasn't. |
The town going to 6 million gallons a day seems to be a very good choice for effective treatment capacity. Beyond six, I think there is a very big question mark. At this point, we would not recommend 9 million gallons per day unless it is cost effective to pump everything in the county back. |
The true nature of the party has not changed. It is still dependent on bureaucrats, leaving everything up to them. In reforming the expressway public corporations, the party said it would not build new roads, but in the end it reached the conclusion that it would construct all planned roads. |
The truth of the matter is, whatever the possibilities between New Orleans and San Antonio, that may have been once upon a time, but that's all pre-Katrina. With the effect the Saints can have on the people of New Orleans and Louisiana, I think they will make every effort to keep them there. |
The typical 5 a.m. openings aren't good enough because every retailer does that on Black Friday. This has become a game of who can top this. Everyone wants to start first. It's very clear that the early bird catches the worm for consumers. So retailers are trying to catch the early consumer. |
The U.S. government unfairly deported thousands of immigrants after the Sept. 11 attacks, simply because they were from Muslim countries, and were at the wrong place at the wrong time. For each, there was a network of children, parents, siblings, neighbours and community who depended on him. |

The way you have to look at this is that you had this huge build-out of the Internet and almost unlimited access to capital, and that has stopped. That doesn't mean there won't continue to be investment. The pace is going to slow for a while, but you ultimately have to continue building out. |
