Council Quotes
One of the reasons the Council originally objected to the Landmark project was that the applicant did not provide a shoring plan indicating how the hillside would be stabilized during the excavation. A shoring plan is still not available. If they start excavating they could trigger a slide. With temporary shoring we could at least know how they are going to hold that hill up there.

Acquired Quotes
HEI acquired more than $1.5 billion in hotels over the past 36 months. We believe the outlook for hotel investment remains quite positive. Our most recent fund, which will allow us to acquire approximately $1.5 billion in assets over the next 36 months, was originally targeted at $350 million, but became over-subscribed.

Against Quotes
We told you from the outset we would be disciplined and we wouldn't bid against ourselves, ... Consummating a transaction would have required us to give up substantially more Comcast shares than we originally proposed. That didn't make good financial sense, particularly given these results.

Best Quotes
We are going to run the full (NASCAR Craftsman) Truck Series. We are going to run six Busch races and probably six or seven ARCA races. At this time, it's the best way for our program. Our ultimate goal is to get Erin Crocker to be competitive at the Nextel Cup level. We are just looking at changing our steps a little bit, and we feel that the plan now is a little better plan than we originally came up with.

Bit Quotes
I was a little bit scared at first. I was in my 30s when I originally sang those numbers. Now, I am old enough. During the recording, David told me that he thought of Burman as a very big composer, someone like Mozart. I felt sad, because he died 12 years ago and he didn't get the recognition that he deserved while he was alive.

Clause Quotes
I think we should talk about what the objectives of the party are, whether that's restoring the Clause Four as it was originally written or it's a different one, but I think we shouldn't shy away from public participation, public investment in industry, and public control of the railways.

Came Quotes
I went to L.A., and I was on two different studio movies at Fox and Sony, but they were never made in the end. When the second one wasn't happening, I ended up doing an episode of 'Who Do You Think You Are?' for the BBC, and went on a roots trip from England to Kenya, India, and pre-partition India in Pakistan, where my family originally came from.

Bay Quotes
It is an unfortunate situation, as we were excited to visit such a great fishery as Toledo Bend. But the safety of our anglers is our first priority and we hope to hold an event on Toledo Bend in the near future. The Huxley Bay Marina and the City of Shelbyville were so helpful with the originally scheduled events and we want to thank them for it.
-
Claims Quotes
Over 5,000 years, states have made surprisingly consistent claims about their duties. They have promised to protect people from threats; promote their welfare; deliver justice and also, perhaps less obviously, uphold truth - originally truths about the cosmos, and more recently truths drawn from reason and knowledge.
-
Amended Quotes
Our original application included projections we made during the summer of 2005. Economic effects of Hurricane Katrina and the ever-increasing cost of fuel has made construction materials more expensive than we originally planned. We amended our original application to help balance the effect of those costs.
-
Chance Quotes
The APL thing is happening a few months later than we originally planned. You can expect low end four- and eight-way systems will probably happen sooner. There's still a chance that will happen before the end of the year. High-end 16-, 32- and 64-way systems probably will happen in the early part of next year.
-
Dropped Quotes
I was originally going to run the 100, the 220 and the 440. But there were going to be heats for the event and I didn't think I could run all three with all the heats without being exhausted. So I dropped the 220, which I probably could have won and ran the 440. As it turned out, had I won the 220 as well, I would have won the team state championship by myself.

Awesome Quotes
When Texas opened it was so great because the fans were awesome and the place looked so big and nice. I couldn't wait to get there. But once we raced on it, that feeling went away. The track originally made me sick to my stomach, because you just couldn't race there. It wasn't much fun for the drivers or the fans.
-
Assimilate Quotes
When Superman was originally created, by Siegel and Shuster, they were two Jewish immigrants that were desperately trying to assimilate into America. They were having a hard time because they were Jewish. They wanted to get in to mainstream publishing but they couldn't. That's why they, and a lot of Jewish guys, went into comic books.

Amazing Quotes
We really are right at the starting line of an amazing opportunity in China right now. The country is evolving right before the world's eyes and right in the middle of all this, they are preparing to host the 2008 Olympics and need to prepare for that challenge. We had originally projected gross sales from China of approximately $20 million between now and the Olympics, but we now believe that this projection is too low. We will update these projections as our business relationships develop in China.

Anywhere Quotes
We essentially ran ourselves dead broke doing it. ... We were originally thinking (of going to) Baton Rouge or Houston, but gas supplies were short, and local radio was saying that if you were going anywhere closer to the disaster, make sure you had armed yourself - to essentially have a shotgun or something of that nature in your vehicle.

Allowing Quotes
Unfortunately the spirit of the event, as it was originally conceived and as it has been presented to the appropriate civic groups and government officials since November 2004, seems to have been lost in the haste to stereotype all graffiti-style artists as 'vandals' and to brand this event as a 'promotion of crime,' ... At its core, this is an event designed to celebrate an art form born from the streets of New York over two decades ago as a means of creative self-expression, allowing the public a unique chance to experience the workmanship and skill that go into creating a piece of art fine enough to hang on the walls of any traditional gallery or museum. Upon completion, a 48-foot mural will be donated to The Point, a Bronx-based nonprofit youth development organization, while the remaining nine will be placed throughout the city for public display.

Actress Quotes
This scene originally looked very different. The actress was standing on a wooden platform, surrounded by a railing to keep tourists from falling down the mountain, hardly as dramatic as the finished product. It was amazingly challenging, due to the fact that the camera was constantly moving around her, and the sheer amount of work required to perfect the shot. Trees and bushes had to be added, a village in the background required removal, and clothing was even added to the actress. It was a complete and all encompassing transformation.

Biggest Quotes
We think the industry is going to be slower in the first quarter, if not the first half, than we originally planned. There's clearly downward momentum right now caused by higher interest rates, higher fuel prices. Probably the biggest factor is consumer confidence drop in December. The industry operates on momentum and we think it will take time for that momentum to turn around.
