Along Quotes
Motorists should enjoy it while they can. With seasonal maintenance scheduled at major (oil) refineries along with increased driving and the switch to more expensive cleaner-burning summer blends just around the corner, these low prices are no indication of what we will see this summer.
-
Atoms Quotes
My immediate reaction was that our job had just increased by two or three years, but that the samples were still there. A 200 miles-per-hour crash isn't going to dislodge solar wind atoms that are buried in the collectors. It's going to take longer and people are going to have to work harder...but the samples are still there.
-
Allow Quotes
One of our immediate goals will be to characterize each of these controlling structures in detail. This will allow the higher grades on these structures to be modeled separately with a significantly higher cut-off, leading to an increased grade overall and more contained ounces in the resource block.
-
Affected Quotes
Obviously, we have suffered a reduction in values in the affected areas, and we need to make sure reductions don't trigger increased taxes on the other taxpayers in the parish, ... That's not a way to get people to stay, and it's not a way to get people to come back. To the extent that it's unclear in the law, the more it needs to be clarified.
-
Across Quotes
Online job availability in the UK rose sharply in February, after the slump in January 2006. This is very positive for UK employment overall as demand for workers has clearly increased across the entire range of occupational categories and sectors tracked by the Monster Employment Index UK.

Care Quotes
More people living with HIV/AIDS get their health care from Medicaid than any other federal program. Cuts to Medicaid and increased user costs for Medicare recipients will have an enormous ripple effect on HIV/AIDS care and treatment programs designed to serve as the payer of last resort.
-
Absorb Quotes
Now that the first preemptive move has taken place, we think that seeing another one is a latent possibility. Despite high economic growth, the impressive rebound on domestic investment implies that the economy is currently more able to absorb increased activity levels without inflation.
-
Add Quotes
New services reflect the changing demographics of bank customers and banks' are adopting new strategies for retaining core deposits. The first baby boomers will turn 65 in 2011, and by 2030, one in five Americans is expected to be 65 or older. Add the trend toward increased equity ownership, and it's hardly surprising that more than half of the bankers expect to offer brokerage services (61%) and half will offer mutual funds (50%) in the next three years.
-
Activity Quotes
New home sales activity continued to point to strong consumer demand as our new orders increased 24 percent year-over-year. As the industry continues to benefit from favorable market conditions, we continue to strengthen our position in strategic markets through organic and acquisitive growth,

Average Quotes
Natural-resources funds have been up and down thus far in 2001. In April, the category's 10 percent rise pulled the average return out of negative territory for the year. The White House has also contributed to the category's recent success with overtures about the need for increased exploration and production.
-
Combined Quotes
Natural gas prices increased dramatically last fall in the wake of hurricane Rita and hurricane Katrina. Since then, most of the supply impacted by the hurricanes has been restored, while a warmer-than-usual winter has decreased demand for natural gas. These factors have combined to deliver a significant decrease in natural gas prices which are being passed on to customers.
-
Compared Quotes
Revenues in the third quarter of 2005 reflected lower prescription growth and increased competition in key therapeutic markets in the U.S., such as the lipid-lowering market, where the rate of growth in the third quarter declined significantly versus the first half of the year; and the erectile dysfunction market, which has been in decline compared to 2004.
-
Coming Quotes

Achieve Quotes
Positive economic indicators have invigorated individual investors' interest and confidence in the markets, causing trading activity to exceed our expectations. This, along with increased client balances and their resulting yields, has helped us achieve what we expect to be a record quarter.
-
Address Quotes
Portal continues its assault on the billing industry's dirty little secret--poor customer satisfaction. With service providers facing an increasingly volatile market with competitors entering from every direction, billing and Revenue Management solutions will rise in prominence as a mission-critical and differentiating business weapon. As such, we have seen an increased willingness among service providers to shop for new solutions that best address today's business climate.
-
Advantage Quotes
One of the primary purposes of this rapid branch expansion has been to take advantage of opportunities as they become available in attractive markets. Although these new locations have increased overhead expenses, we are confident they will contribute to profitability within the next few years.

-
Business Quotes
If we do nothing, we will lose the business we already have to a growing number of competitors, including Bermuda, (the Cayman Islands), Gibraltar, Luxembourg and Singapore. These jurisdictions are committing increased financial and personnel resources to develop their satellite industries.
-
Alike Quotes
Business managers and drivers alike will appreciate the easy entry and egress and roomy cab of the Sterling 360. While the drivers will benefit from a more comfortable and convenient work environment, managers will value the increased productivity and retention from reduced driver fatigue.
-
Access Quotes
Based on our research, it appears that increases in numbers of patients at both ends of the acuity spectrum contribute to ED overcrowding. Some increased volume may be due to severely ill patients who can now be treated successfully in the ED, such as those with irregular heartbeat. At the other end of the spectrum, a growing number of less sick patients are now coming to the ED, particularly in areas without after-hours facilities. This is an access problem.

Art Quotes
Because thou sayest, I am rich, and increased with goods, and have need of nothing; and knowest not that thou art wretched, and miserable, and poor, and blind, and naked: / I counsel thee to buy of me gold tried in the fire, that thou mayest be rich; and white raiment, that thou mayest be clothed, and that the shame of thy nakedness do not appear; and anoint thine eyes with eyesalve, that thou mayest see.
-
Arranged Quotes
For years healthcare has been moving away from the inpatient care trends that our current facility was designed around. Outpatient services at SCMC (e.g. physical therapy, outpatient surgery, CT scans) have increased 33 percent over the past five years. The new facility's floor plan is arranged to accommodate this continuing shift in services.
-
Base Quotes
Fourth quarter 2005 base earnings were robust due primarily to increased volume in our Consumer Packaging and Packaging Services segments and company wide productivity improvements and cost containment. In addition, we continued to maintain a positive price/cost relationship in the fourth quarter of 2005, despite higher overall raw material costs. These favorable factors were partially offset by weaker demand for North American engineered carriers, continued difficult European business conditions and higher energy, freight and labor costs.
-
Auction Quotes
If a child scored a 300 in reading last year and the score improved to 350 this year, the child and their parents would each receive the increased difference between the two scores in tickets to use as cash in an auction of many large-ticket items at the beginning of the next school year. The kids may use their tickets separately or combined with parents' to bid on items such as big-screen televisions, bicycles, DVD players and more.
-
Attractive Quotes
For the service to be attractive to new and existing customers, we would have to invest significantly in its continued development. Without the benefits of scale, further investment in the KiT service would not be cost-effective, and due to anticipated increased competition in the digital TV market it is not viable to continue the service as it currently exists.
-
Access Quotes
Global protein sector challenges continued during the past quarter. High poultry inventories depressed retail poultry prices and contributed to declines in pork pricing in the US, although US pork industry volumes increased over last year. At the same time, extraordinarily high US live cattle costs in relation to finished box beef prices, combined with a continued lack of access to major Asian export markets, limited our beef operating results.
-
Actual Quotes
If the standard mileage rate was first used when the vehicle was placed into service --used for business -- then the taxpayer may convert to the actual expense deduction to offset higher fuel cost for the current year. From September 1, 2005 through December 31, 2005 the IRS increased the standard to 48.5 cents per mile. Despite the increase in the standard mileage rate, one should carefully weigh which expense -- actual or standard --they should use for their 2005 return.
