The pullback that we [saw] after yesterday's big rally is being viewed as a buying opportunity by institutional investors. So instead of selling on the rallies, they're now buying on the dips. Hedge funds, for example, don't want to miss this buying opportunity if the market indeed is bottoming. |
The punishment phase of a capital murder trial is drenched with emotion ... because it's a horrible crime and we're actually contemplating putting someone to death. Twelve people on a jury are already saddled with that heavy burden. ... Is that the right environment to ask (a) clinical question? |
The rate at which this technology has been adopted is remarkable, the fastest I have ever seen in the motor sector, faster even than the airbag, automatic transmission or electric windows. From the consumer standpoint, it's wonderful, because you get flexibility and you don't have to pay for it. |
The relay team was ranked sixth going in, so they performed where they were supposed to. We were hoping for a little better, but they did as well as they were supposed to, so I can't complain. Two of the four were competing in a national meet for the first time, so it's good experience for them. |
The response of law enforcement and prosecutors to this threat didn't have nearly as much to do with the fact that it involved David Letterman as it had to do with the fact that Kelly Frank was the defendant, ... Once we knew of his criminal history and his behavior, we took this very seriously. |
The result is disappointing for two reasons. One is that the Focus is a brand-new design, so Ford had every opportunity to design the bumpers to do a better job of reducing damage. The other reason is that the predecessor model, the Escort, had an illustrious early history of bumper performance. |
The revenue miss was split evenly between weak demand in the public sector, primarily in U.S. federal buying, and Dell being aggressive with prices in the consumer sector. The latter is easily fixed. (But) Dell doesn't appear to have confidence federal demand will improve in the current quarter. |
The rivalry's great for the fans and most of the alumni, but we're just out there to take care of business. We never try to get too mixed up into the rivalry because if you get too much into it, that could probably lead into a fight or something on the court. That's something neither team wants. |
The rule of thumb is fairly simple. If the market believes the cost of conflict is going to rise in terms of blood and treasure, it's going to discount that and sell off. If it believes the cost of conflict is going to fall, the market is going to discount that and rise. It's really that simple. |
The school is the center of a small town community. Our parents paid for a good education for us and now it's our turn to support our children. We can only 'pay forward.' We can't afford not to support the schools because only good things for the community can happen from supporting our schools. |

The South American countries have already had their own meeting of high-level employees and they also elaborated a draft of the declaration. I asked them to send me a copy of the document and it was based on this South American version that the talks between high-level Arab employees took place. |
The stage is set for the largest snow melt caused reservoir spill in eight years. Anyone using the water, or near the water, needs to be extra vigilant of conditions and take appropriate safety precautions when enjoying recreation in and around the delta, mountain streams, rivers and reservoirs. |
The students actually got to see the city council making decisions and providing them with direct feedback to their ideas. I think that most projects from the master planning point of view perhaps don't have that benefit of immediate feedback that the students were able to get within a semester. |
The tech sector as a whole has performed so badly this year; the Nasdaq has been the worst performer year-to-date. I think a lot of money flew into the 10-year bond during the conventions, during the Olympics, and now people are looking to put their money into the beaten-down sectors, like tech. |
