We're being approached by four parties to do Hurricane Katrina relief. If we could get the government to commit to a reasonable number of buildings, like 5,000, which is a drop in the bucket as to what they need, then we would build a plant (in the storm-affected area) at our own expense, and we would hire and train people from Louisiana and Mississippi to operate it. |
We're going the right direction. They're going to be something. I told them I couldn't fault them for anything they did. Defense played great. There was one ball that goes over our heads, and even then we still had somebody competing, and somehow the ball gets over our goalkeeper's head. Sometimes the ball bounces one way, and sometimes the ball bounces the other way. |
We're going to approach him the way we always have and just take for granted that he's going to be swinging the way he usually swings. I mean this guy's one of the greatest hitters of all time, so we're not going to treat him any differently. We'll try to approach him the same way we have in the past and that's to make quality pitches and hopefully not make a mistake. |

We're pleased to be working with HP to deliver Rhapsody via their new consumer notebook and desktop PC lines. This new agreement will enable a much wider audience of consumers to experience Rhapsody and use it to manage their personal digital music collections. We're pleased to bring Rhapsody to HP and a growing list of leading companies like Comcast, Cox, and Sprint. |
We've been in our bullpen with a lot of regularity this year in the fifth inning or starting the sixth. We've had to use (Julio) Mateo, (J.J.) Putz and (Rafael) Soriano in two-inning stints a lot already this year. If we continue to do that, when we get to August and September and we're in this, those guys are going to be out of gas because we had to use them so much. |
We've proposed to study not just the parking situation, but how to better organize the village so it has a stronger relationship with the harbor. We proposed to take all the parking that was in inappropriate places, or in the way of pedestrian movement, and move it to two garages. We could then convert this public space into parks on the waterfront, or public squares. |
We've started talks with the Native Land Trust Board and we're treating this as priority because we don't want a similar problem like the sugar industry to have to go through. We don't want our supply to drop. These farmers do not want to invest in their farms because of the uncertainty. Those who have come into the industry do not have the capacity these farmers had. |
Wealth in an area is sometimes exported to other parts of the country. Racial and ethnic disparities are not due to genetics or inborn differences in people of different races, but rather that they reflect social inequalities. Similarly, geographic disparities that we see across the country are not due to climate but reflect the social environment and local economies. |
Well, I think we're getting what we want, we're getting the information that's in it and getting the reasons why there's a big difference between the attorney general and the FBI director and that's the main thrust of our hearing and everything else to find out why there's this big difference and so the committee knows, the Congress knows and the American people know. |
Well, it seems to me that the best relationships - the ones that last - are frequently the ones that are rooted in friendship. You know, one day you look at the person and you see something more than you did the night before. Like a switch has been flicked somewhere. And the person who was just a friend is... suddenly the only person you can ever imagine yourself with |

Well, negotiations are under way with Merck and other companies to work more closely together hopefully. We've already achieved significant price reductions for two of the recent therapies. But in the future, we frankly want more flexibility when it comes to licenses and other legal issues. Are we going to talk about this in terms of breaking a patent or saving lives? |
What I think is interesting is the way you see the big players reacting, ... Companies like IBM and Sun are mingling in the open-source arena?and have benefited greatly from it?while Microsoft appears to be on the defensive, sitting back trying to protect the kingdom. IBM and Microsoft got their original lead on Apple [Computer Inc.] by being inclusive, not exclusive. |
