If tribes like the Rumsey tribe, who have demonstrated a shared commitment with local governments, are not permitted to participate in local planning decisions by formal means, the governor is then, in effect, encouraging tribes to remain aloof and apart from their communities — and it's horrible public policy. |

If we can get two-thirds of our product development at one-fourth the cost, we come close to cutting our overall costs in half, ... Put another way, if I have 25 cents of every dollar this company takes in to spend on product development, getting more engineers working is how we can develop faster and how we win. |
If we look to the future, when we talk about outsourcing jobs, when we talk about global competitiveness and our efficiency, none of that matters very much unless we have appropriate training and education for our young people today who are the workforce of tomorrow. It is an economic reality, and we are failing. |
If we obstinately refuse to reform what we have implicitly declared to be wrong, and engaged to put away the holding of the Africans in slavery... have we not the great reason to fear, yea, may we not with great certainty conclude, God will withdraw his kind protection from us, and punish us yet seven times more? |
If we'd taken expert advice, we'd have set up an 800-number staffed by a bunch of telemarketers and hired a group of wholesalers. But instead, we lectured at industry conferences and wrote articles. We talked with advisors about their interest in learning about passive investing and grew largely by word of mouth. |
If we're in a situation where I need to put points on the board, then I'll do it. I really do it on a needed basis. I don't do it just to do it. I don't try to go into a game saying, 'this is what I'm going to do.' We've had a couple games where my teammates were struggling shooting the ball. Then I take it over. |
If you are really going to enhance server performance with dual-core, then you also need to enhance the I/O bandwidth and memory at the same time. So when we went to release our eighth-generation servers, we put PCI-Express on all of the I/O slots and used DDR-2 memory as the new memory standard on the platforms. |
If you can get the right people to the right jobs, you should be able to pick off some tens of thousands into permanent employment. But as you push towards trying to employ those with more profound mental health or substance abuse problems, and who have lived longer in a transient life, it becomes more difficult. |

If you look at when was the last time the U.S. military assisted in the evacuation of a metropolitan city the size of New Orleans, I would have to say this ranks at the very top. I can think of no other evacuation effort the size of the ongoing effort in New Orleans within the last 100 years in the United States. |
If you looked at a major earthen dam being designed during the same time frame as the 17th Street Canal was being designed, there would have been boards of consultants and rigorous outside peer review that probably would have detected and caught many problems that are coming to light with the 17th Street project. |

If your house has got a gaping hole in the roof, and water's pouring in and it's undermining the whole house and the foundation, you don't say you're going to double up on the mortgage payments and just keep paying that off, and we're not going to care what happens to the house. You pay attention to fundamentals, |
Immigration reform should not become the means to undermine the Constitution, nor should it place undue burdens on the American worker. Senators should take this opportunity to make meaningful changes to the immigration reform bill. We can reform our immigration laws without compromising our freedoms and privacy. |
