2005 was a year of continued growth and business expansion. Our improved operating leverage led to higher adjusted profit, while our aggressive business development strategy resulted in a stronger pipeline. During 2006, we will maintain our focus on maximizing the potential of our marketed products, the efficiency of our business operations and the advancement of our most promising clinical programs. |
A key question in the global climate debate is if the climate warms in the future, will the water cycle intensify and what will be the nature of that intensification. This is important because intensification of the water cycle could change water availability and increase the frequency of tropical storms, floods, and droughts, and increased water vapor in the atmosphere could amplify climate warming. |
A prolonged deterioration in the security environment could relegate economic reforms from the government's top priorities and damage Israel's economic growth prospects and potentially widening fiscal deficits. Conversely, continued progress with the implementation of economic reforms and rapid debt reduction, supported by a stable security environment, could improve the ratings prospects for Israel. |
After cutting away its branches, its feet are bound together into bundles, and then, it is placed between the wooden rollers and crushed. What punishment is inflicted upon it! Its juice is extracted and placed in the cauldron; as it is heated, it groans and cries out. And then, the crushed cane is collected and burnt in the fire below. Nanak, come, people, and see how the sweet sugar-cane is treated! |

After today's suicide bombing in Tel Aviv, President Abbas strongly condemned it and stated that such acts are against the Palestinian national consensus and harm the high national interests of the Palestinian people. In this regard we restate our condemnation of the loss of innocent civilian life on both sides, Palestinian and Israeli, and we continue to call upon the occupying power to do the same. |
After years of planning, developing technical specifications and considering business models, the digital-cinema revolution begins in 2006. All of those three components have come together, and deals are being negotiated now between theater companies and equipment and financial entities. It will take several years for this transition to occur, but 2006 certainly marks the beginning of the transition. |
Although the 10% A Notes were eligible for conversion into common stock up through August of this year, we are delighted to see that a majority of the A Note holders have elected immediate conversion. Not only does this represent a strong endorsement of our business plan by our note holders, but will serve to materially strengthen our balance sheet by reducing our debt load by more than $3.6 million. |

And I will take the remnant of Judah, that have set their faces to go into the land of Egypt to sojourn there, and they shall all be consumed, and fall in the land of Egypt; they shall even be consumed by the sword and by the famine: they shall die, from the least even unto the greatest, by the sword and by the famine: and they shall be an execration, and an astonishment, and a curse, and a reproach. |
And then we go around to anybody sitting in the end zones - particularly families with small children - and say, Look, we would really like for you to take them to the tunnels when there's about 45 seconds left on the clock and just watch the remainder of the game from there. You'd be a lot safer. Usually they're fine with that. You just need to talk to them about it and tell them why it's important. |
And there were four leprous men at the entering in of the gate: and they said one to another, Why sit we here until we die? / If we say, We will enter into the city, then the famine is in the city, and we shall die there: and if we sit still here, we die also. Now therefore come, and let us fall unto the host of the Syrians: if they save us alive, we shall live; and if they kill us, we shall but die. |
And thou shalt set bounds unto the people round about, saying, Take heed to yourselves, that ye go not up into the mount, or touch the border of it: whosoever toucheth the mount shall be surely put to death: / There shall not an hand touch it, but he shall surely be stoned, or shot through; whether it be beast or man, it shall not live: when the trumpet soundeth long, they shall come up to the mount. |
Apparently there was some kind of electrical problem, and the crew will figure out what caused it. Unfortunately it happened just as I was going by the pit entrance, so I pulled in thinking that something had broken. I recycled the ignition and it fired right up. I don't know whether we could have won because my car was really sliding around on the tires, but it was a disappointing finish to my race. |
As a business executive, this event offered valuable insight into the legislative process, especially tax reform.

Through this event and others, UITA continues to provide opportunities that are informative and useful to Utah business leaders. |
