The Dream Act . . . will allow them to go to college in all 50 states. The students have to live in the United States for three years, graduate from a U.S. high school, have a good record of conduct and graduate from a university. When they get a degree they will be allowed to live in the United States. |
The drug's benefits are simply to lower blood sugar, something that is not a morbidity and mortality advantage, so my view is that safety has to be very clear before you're going to approve it, and we have 15 other drugs to lower blood sugar, ... In my view, it didn't make any sense to approve the drug. |
The emerging opportunity for DECT-based technology in North America was a key factor in our acquisition of KIRK telecom. Having DECT-based solutions will allow us to address new market opportunities with wireless technology that has been successfully serving mobile enterprise users throughout the world. |
The employment situation, which has the most direct impact on everyone's lives and outlook, is still precarious, and that's causing a lot of anxiety. They're worried about their jobs, but at the same time, I think they sense that this mild recession appears to be ending, and that will raise their hopes. |
The entire distribution channel has been upset and that's manifesting itself in a wider-than-normal disparity in prices from place to place, ... Until we get back to normal, it's smart for consumers to shop for the best price they can find as long as they're not burning too much gas looking for savings. |
The European currencies have been weak against the dollar for three or four years now, and we've had two or three years of really extraordinary results worldwide, ... So, we're managing through this difficult period quite well, probably better than almost any other global branded company I can think of. |
The fact is that right now, they probably are 30 points better than we are. Their program is at one stage and ours is at another. We're trying to start going in the right direction and they have a good team that is competing in a tough conference. It was just a case of playing them at a bad time for us. |
The fact remains that the cost of admission -- that is the value of these franchises -- has risen to such a degree that in most situations, the leagues have outgrown the family ownership situations. My opinion is ... you are going to see a lot of large conglomerates participating in professional sports. |

The federal treasurer should be proud of this achievement. However, the case to improve workforce participation through reduced effective marginal tax rates, eliminating the top rate of tax and rewarding companies who have created the additional 1.7 million new jobs over the past 10 years is compelling. |
The final result - a balloon on a skewer - looks great, and seems impossible. But if you follow the instructions it's actually easy to do, even though you'll be convinced the balloon is bound to burst. It might go wrong every once in a while, but this will just provide extra amusement for your audience. |
The firmness of the fairways certainly brings the field a little bit closer and the long hitters, their balls are going to be running off the fairway into the rough. So it certainly closes the gap. If it was wet, I'd be hitting two more clubs iron-wise into the greens, and then it would be really tough. |
The frequent revisions of the federal tax code have added to its complexity, especially since many of the recent changes have been phased in or are temporary. This situation requires the efforts of Farm Bureau, the Farm Team and all of our members if we are to secure fair and simplified estate tax laws. |
The goal is to reach a point with BI where people can make choices with an understanding of the impact their choice has beyond themselves. Typically, they're making a decision that could have consequences for the rest of McKesson, so the more information they have, the better the decision McKesson gets. |
The goal would be to compete with the Hudson County powers like North Bergen and St. Peter's Prep. That's the dream. I'd also like to see us qualify for the state playoffs. I knew it would take some time and hard work to get there. But we have the determination to get there. Nothing is going to stop us. |
