In the frontal test, the driver's side of the vehicle needs to absorb the energy of the crash and keep the occupant compartment intact, ... The Freestyle's performance is what we like to see. A driver in a real-world crash of this severity would be likely to sustain only minor injuries. The Freestyle is a good performer and a 'best pick' in the frontal test. |
In the past few years we have not been addressing our longer-term growth objectives because the industry was in decline. We felt it would be naive to talk about growth when we knew our customers weren't spending. But in 2003 we said that the industry had stabilized and I would characterize 2004 as a year when the IT industry will begin its next growth cycle. |
In the quick-serve restaurant industry, our success rests on our ability to motivate our staff, streamline our operations and empower our employees. The applications that run on our Cisco IP phones are helping us maintain our unique sense of culture and improve our communication capabilities. I never imagined a phone would have such an impact on my business. |
Including college viewing in the national ratings will give our clients a more complete picture of television viewing, particularly among young adults. Nielsen is continuously striving to improve the accuracy and completeness of its measurements. Expanding the National sample to include out-of-home college students is one of many initiatives we are pursuing. |
Investors and asset managers are increasingly looking to diversify their portfolios by investing in a variety of global asset classes. As a result, financial firms such as UBS are turning to Standard & Poor's for the analytical rigor, independence, experience and market coverage needed to construct and calculate indices as a basis for evaluating performance. |
It goes without saying that Craig Gower can not find himself in this position again. This suspended fine may be only part of what he will face from the club and the league. We will be reviewing the matter when we have received a formal report from the club but, on the face of it, they have been through an exhaustive process and imposed a significant penalty. |
It has become more apparent to us over the past seven months, as each new embarrassment is plastered across newspapers, that individuals within the university appear to have a greater interest in doing what is in the best interest of the Office of the President, rather than what is in the best interests of its students, its faculty or California's taxpayers. |

It looks like they are going to ask developers to have to rewrite applications to use some of the features of the new system. If I'm a developer with a limited budget and am told I'm going to have to make major changes, or even minor changes, to my applications to keep up with Apple's operating system, I'm probably going to write for Windows and not for Mac. |
It only takes one smile to offer welcome...and blessed be the person who will share it. It only takes one moment to be helpful...and blessed be the person who will spare it. It only takes one joy to lift a spirit...and blessed be the person who will give it. It only takes one life to make a difference...and blessed be the person who will live it. |
It seems that Dr. Hansen, once again, is using his government position to promote his own views and political agenda, which is a clear violation of governmental procedure in any administration. Public affairs offices exist to coordinate communications with the press, and it appears that NASA communicators are simply fulfilling their professional obligations. |
It started out weird, and then it just kept getting more weird as the night went on. I don't know of much that didn't happen in that game. Even when we kicked off, it was an adventure. I was just happy that our kids did eventually take control. I was waiting for them to play circus music at any time over the loud speaker, because that is what it seemed like. |
It takes a unique person to fit in at the Naval Academy. He will be able to fit into that type of lifestyle. The discipline (won't be an issue). It's no question, he's probably going to get the best education. Especially if he wants to get into medicine. They're more cutting edge and daring. If that's what he wants to do, he's going to the right institution. |
