Our strategy is working. But it has to be seen in a longer-term perspective. It's been a weak market period. Since we sold the human resources business last May, the stock price has gone up 29 percent. You know, life's filled with successes and regrets. I think I'm a very lucky guy and there will be many more successes. |
Overall he finished 16th, but Levi is still one of our most-important skiers. He's one of the reasons we ended up where we did. He's always an all-out skier. The only way you win or get close to winning is to ski on the edge. And when you ski on the edge, it doesn't always happen. He pushes it to the extreme every time. |
Partners such as Lowe's are spreading the word about the importance of energy efficiency in all aspects of our lives. They are a leader in the industry and are doing an outstanding job of educating consumers about the benefits of ENERGY STAR products that help their customers save money and help protect our environment. |
PBS and WNET have a well-earned reputation for their programs that explore history with a depth and understanding not found anywhere else on the dial. I am pleased that WNET has now cancelled plans to follow their historically accurate program with a panel discussion including some who deny that the genocide took place. |

People desperately want work. The best thing we can do is give them jobs by stimulating the economy in a real way. But until we do, it is our fundamental and solemn and important responsibility to at least let them live a life of dignity, maintain the payment on the home, feed the child, put a coat on the spouse's back. |

People in Mississippi are living in tents as we speak. There's an estimated 5,000 families waiting to move into trailers and the weather is starting to get colder there as well. People not affected by Katrina and Rita may not think about it any more, but these people still need loads of help. Money needs to keep coming. |
People typically buy according to need. If you're buying one of these [PowerPC] machines, it's not like it is obsolete. If you bought a Power Mac today, it probably won't be obsolete for the lifetime of that machine. By the time that machine reaches the end of its usefulness, you'll be ready to move onto something else. |
Quintessence is a dynamic, time-evolving, and spatially dependent form of energy with negative pressure sufficient to drive the accelerating expansion, ... Whereas the cosmological constant is a very specific form of energy — vacuum energy — quintessence encompasses a wide class of possibilities. |

Really, that's the best we've played in the red area all year long. We made a couple of stops after a sudden change, after we turned the ball over offensively. We came in there and didn't let them score a touchdown. We held them, based on the field position that we had, so, I mean, there were some positives to build on. |
Recent accounting-related legislation is having a significant impact at a time when the pool of qualified prospects is declining due to the 150-hour rule instituted by most states. As a result, many hiring managers have more work than they can handle with current staffing levels and cannot find enough capable new hires. |
Retailers play a vital role in our success and we aim to offer them unprecedented support. In addition to our above the line activity we have worked closely with our sales promotion agency, 141 Worldwide, to develop a strong retail strategy and provide retailers with an extensive range of bespoke point of sale material. |
Right now I think our team knows that our soft spot is pitching. I think the kids know we've got injuries and different things going on so we're just trying to get back and it's hard. It's hard to come back from injuries and perform at 100 percent right away. When you're on the mound there is very little room for error. |
