Continuing Quotes
The study indicates that the contribution of the ice sheets to recent sea-level rise during the decade studied was much smaller than expected, just two percent of the recent increase of nearly three millimeters a year. Continuing research using NASA satellites and other data will narrow the uncertainties in this important issue.

Audiences Quotes
Sometimes I'm out on tour and you feel you're really getting somewhere and the audience is building and there's five or six hundred people coming to see you every night just from word-of-mouth. And then you go somewhere and you feel like you've gone back a decade and you're playing to 15 or 20 people. You think to yourself, 'Should I change my life, get another job?
-
Adam Quotes
Adam, Grant and Tory have worked at ILM for some years. I worked there on one job with Grant and we became friends. Adam and Tory had worked with me or for me before then and, in fact, Adam got his first work in the field when I hired him over a decade ago. I found ILM a great place to work and that there were a lot of very talented people there. Many of the people there have worked with me over the years.

College Quotes
A number of factors contribute to the sustained demand for rented accommodation in Yorkshire. The burgeoning student population of Englands largest county, with major universities at Sheffield, Hull, Leeds and York, among others, underpin demand for rented properties. Many students, after graduation, remain in the county and as first jobbers look for shared accommodation with their friends in the major towns. An important demographic trend that has sustained the growth of the private rented sector over the past decade or so has been the tendency for young people to leave the family home at a fairly young age to go on to further education and not return. In addition, there has been a net influx of jobs in some parts of Yorkshire which has helped create a requirement for more rented homes.

Auto Quotes
Auto execs are grappling with the dynamics of increased competition, rising commodity and healthcare costs and the need to invest in new manufacturing facilities. All of this is leading to a rather bleak outlook on profitability through the rest of this decade and a trend toward greater consolidation.
-
Basic Quotes
This is not a new interest for me, ... It's just that I've spent the last decade or so working more on basic Internet infrastructure evolution at MCI. But I've been increasingly interested in focusing back on the application level, higher layer stuff. So this is a wonderful opportunity to pursue that.

Ability Quotes
This forces family businesses to sometimes sell off under fire-sale conditions to come up with cash. Sometimes it causes them to go into a decade or more of very, very deep debt, which takes away their capital and their ability to grow as they had been growing, to provide more jobs and employment opportunities. Sometimes they end up having to slice off parts of the business or farm to come up with the cash.
-
Affects Quotes
Although the U.S.-Mexico Border Counties Coalition was founded nearly a decade ago because of the high costs border counties bear to incarcerate criminal undocumented aliens and provide emergency medical care to undocumented immigrants, we want to take this opportunity to remind Congress, and the nation, that immigration is only one issue that affects the border.
-
United States Quotes
There's been very little investment in infrastructure at these companies over the past decade -- tech was sucking up all the capital, ... Demand is picking up and you have this big, new demand from China, which is pulling away supply that might otherwise have headed to the United States.
-
Bush Quotes
It's a strange thing for Bush to have slipped into, given the savvy you expected from this administration, with a vice president who spent over a decade on Capitol Hill. It seems as if his people would have seen that there was potential for trouble, and at least done their homework on the Hill.
-
August Quotes
It wasn't surprising really. The August same-store numbers really confirm the trend of slowing retail sales and consumer spending, ... August was the back-to-school that wasn't. August and back-to-school doesn't quite have the importance it did a decade ago, but outside of that make no mistake, consumer spending has slowed down and Americans are tapped out.
-
Adopted Quotes
It is profoundly discouraging to learn that the share of African-American kids attending segregated schools has barely changed in the last decade since school choice policies were adopted in Michigan. We should all be concerned about the kind of society we are creating, in which more than half of African-American students in Michigan go to schools in which virtually none of their classmates are not also African-American.

Ask Quotes
It's not that I do not care about it. I've seen it very often in my career. For example, 'Aguirre: The Wrath of God' was refused by the Cannes Film Festival and in the German press it was so badly reviewed that you had the feeling it was the worst film of the decade and it endured the test of time. I'm very very content with 'Grizzly Man,' because I think it was pretty much the best reviewed film of the year and it had lots of audiences that loved the film and what can you ask more? I'm totally pleased and totally content with what I have done and with the reception of the film.

Although Quotes
For many people in the U.N., the 1990s was the worst decade the organization experienced. This was the decade of Somalia, Srebrenica, of Rwanda and so forth, and yet the reality is, during this period, although there were these awful conflicts, the overall number of wars had gone down.

Our long run of positive sales increases shows that customers have noticed and appreciate our efforts.

Attempt Quotes
Congress was acutely aware that for more than a decade before the passage of these laws, every attempt to close or realign a major base in this country had been blocked by Congress itself or by the courts. Congress undoubtedly recognized that objective and prompt decisions concerning base closings are vitally important, particularly at a time of budgetary problems and rapidly changing defense needs.
-
Agree Quotes
It's criminal that a decade has gone by and all these young kids are growing up without a team to relate to. We're going to have to make some hard decisions as a league. Are we going to expand or move a team there? But this committee should basically be the votes, when we agree on something, that we can get it done.
-
Committed Quotes
The last decade has been professionally exhilarating for me and I am so proud of the many things that the team at The League has accomplished, ... It is also a good time for the League, which is nearly at the end of a comprehensive strategic planning project that will identify new visions and directions for the organization. It deserves a fresh pair of legs to run the next lap of the race, taking this industry to new heights. I am committed to helping The League make a smooth transition during this important phase in its development.

Anybody Quotes
I'm going to say that Carl Edwards -- I predict -- is the driver of the decade for not only Roush Racing but for all of Nextel Cup racing, ... I cant imagine anybody coming into the business in their first full year and being able to win four times, and won in the Busch car for the first time this year.
