Per capita measures of income are always a little bit distorted when you talk about places like Utah or Idaho, mainly because we have substantially more children per adult.

Having attended the World Trade Organization's Ministerial meeting in Hong Kong a few weeks ago, we must make sure the many trade agreements now being actively negotiated by our government do not put U.S. sugar farmers at a disadvantage in the global marketplace. The world sugar market is the most distorted commodity market in the world, caused by the dumping of surplus sugar from countries that don't want to play by the same rules as U.S. farmers.

Abhisit Vejjajiva

But these processes have been distorted by the prime minister. So in the end, we have an elected politician who can remain above the law with no mechanism to deal with it -- no accountability, no responsibility. That to me is not democracy.

When we go to court, they are going to have to come up with all the evidence where they are accusing me and my dedicated deputies of racial profiling. It's always easy to throw the race card in there and that's what they're doing in Washington today, that they're concerned about racial profiling.

Bertrand Russel

What a man believes upon grossly insufficient evidence is an index into his desires -- desires of which he himself is often unconscious. If a man is offered a fact which goes against his instincts, he will scrutinize it closely, and unless the evidence is overwhelming, he will refuse to believe it. If, on the other hand, he is offered something which affords a reason for acting in accordance to his instincts, he will accept it even on the slightest evidence. The origin of myths is explained in this way.

Don Waddell

When we call up players, we don't call them up just to sit on the bench. We expect them to contribute to our team's success right away. This season has been no exception.

Marty Hurney

William Rice

Web sites are extremely important to the technology industry, ... Companies can benefit from the independent evaluation recognition of their online efforts that the award judges provide.

Julien Dray

Kathryn Schulz

Laura Wade

I really don't know where my interest in death comes from. Maybe I've just got a twisted imagination. The truth is, I haven't had a hugely eventful life - maybe I'm compensating in my creative life. Or maybe I'm just a bit sick.

Leonard Mlodinow

Khuram Chaudhry

We're finding that the data from the U.S. on industrial activity were pretty weak. It's so-so on the consumer although housing activity is still holding up. When you look at Europe, Sweden and Hungary both cut interest rates this week.

Scott Adams

We're just looking at commercial and industrial land in transitional areas.

Richard Wiles

The persistent, toxic chemicals we identified in this study are important, heavily used industrial substances, some of which are produced in quantities up to 500 million pounds a year. At the very least, Americans have a right to know if companies are releasing these pollutants into their communities. In fact, we should have begun tracking these pollutants years ago. Instead of curbing reports on the most worrisome pollutants to please industry, the Bush Administration should be expanding the tracking system to inform and protect the public.

Steve Squyres

When we first touched down at Gusev Crater on the night of January 4, 2004, the Columbia Hills seemed impossibly far away. It was a necessary place for us to get to, though, because as we looked across the plains we quickly realized these plains were made of basaltic lava. This was stuff that was interesting but did not tell us what we really sought to know about Gusev Crater, and that is whether there had been water here. So in order to find something, in order to find something different, we had to make that mile-and-a-half drive.

Joseph Battipaglia

What happens with Iraq is very important in January and February to pretty much set the tone for how the economy will fare for the rest of the year. So when we have that answer, then you can get your market direction. In the meantime, you essentially move sideways.

We fall in highly competitive post-MFA era that began from January 1, 2005, as we are competing with some giant RMG producing countries including China and India.

We're banged up. We're looking to get healthy for January and February. In the grand scheme of things it's probably not worth it for them to wrestle in this tournament.

Joe Villani

We're back in the pattern where we've been the last three weeks or so ? pretty mild. I don't think we'll see 50s, but we'll at least be in the 40s for a good part of next week, which for January is pretty warm.

Marc Klee

We've always felt that we were going to have to test the bottoms that we've seen. We think what you are seeing today is probably that test and we really don't think that the market is going much lower.

Kelly Leonard

When we were talking to them about the marketing, I said traditional theater marketing never works for us. We need college students, we need young people who wouldn't necessarily go to Denver Center. We get a lot of people at Second City who don't know they're coming to an Actors' Equity theater. A lot of marketing we're doing is promoting Red Scare without the Second City name or the Denver Center name.

Maripol

When I was a child, I lived in Morocco, and I would always buy a lot of beads from the markets and to make jewellery for friends. Later, at 18, I would do my own clothes and make my own patterns. When I first came to New York, people just assumed I was a stylist because I was so into fashion.

Bob Nardelli

Tom Taylor brings decades of company and retail experience to his new role. He has touched virtually every part of company and has in-depth knowledge of stores, products, associates, suppliers and customers.

David Samson

We're marketing no expectation, and we're trying to introduce people to players.

Chris Wiegand

We're going to get some weak numbers. The ISM report is going to be weak and that we're in store for a labor report that's weaker than what we've seen over the past four or five months.

Art Larson

We're going to examine this report and carry on a dialogue with this organization. But we feel that we have walked the walk in being a responsible and environmentally sensitive corporate citizen.

Bruce Kasman

What we're seeing in the report is clear signs that manufacturing has turned. And I think it's turned pretty sharply.

James Chessen

What we're recommending is that people take out as much cash as they would need for a long weekend. And if you're relying on credit cards, request copies of your credit report before and after the century change so you can spot and correct any Y2K errors immediately.

Todd Rethemeier

What they reported this morning beat my expectations, but it's hard to overlook the slowing customer growth.

Joshua Micah Marshall

When we are reporting the news, we make every effort to report it in as factual way as possible.

Mark Jensen

When we do catch things like this, it's our responsibility to report it. Hopefully, the kids can pull through and have a successful season still.

Kristen Kinley

When we have seen the fire reports increasing, we have recalled those vehicles and replaced those switches. Ford has used the basic switch design in a large number of vehicles and the risk of fire related to the switch is much different in those certain populations that we have recalled.

Bob Parker

When we got feedback from other airports about how well their lots were working, there seemed to be a correlation between success and proximity to the terminal. Those airports which reported a lack of success had lots further from the terminal.

He has touched virtually every part of company and has in-depth knowledge of stores, products, associates, suppliers and customers. Tom has served in numerous leadership roles that have directly influenced merchandising and marketing efforts.

Rick Anderson

We're making changes because the bookstore has struggled to make a profit or break even over the past few years. We have begun affiliating our bookstore with Columbia as they are the eighth largest in the country and know how to run a retail company.

Marc Touati

What we're seeing now is a total reverse in what everyone expected ahead of the euro debut; retailers understood that the euro would add new pressures for competitiveness, so they chose to push prices down to attract customers.

Ebrahim Patel

We can create many local jobs if all retailers were to take advantage of local capacity. We have willing workers and idle industrial capacity.

Mark Baker

We find it increasingly troubling when state and local governments provide our competitors a head start in the marketplace by subsidizing the construction of their stores. We believe the success of a retail business is best decided in the marketplace, not the halls of the state capitol.

Bill Dreher

We believe this will have a negative impact on February sales for the majority of our retailers as the much colder weather will likely impede store traffic, and sales of spring merchandise sets that are now in stores may be impacted.

Ken Cassar

What's really interesting is that most online retailers have forward integration, whereas this seems like a backwards integration play. Barnes & Noble already has a direct relationship with the customer and now they're trying to get further into the supply chain,

Brian Postol

U.S. retailers have not proven that they understand the difference of doing business in Europe versus the U.S..

David Singer

Tom's has a strong heritage and solid reputation in the snack food business, and we believe that this opportunity will make our company stronger. The transaction developed quickly, and we are still developing our plans. In the near term we intend to continue business as usual while we develop a plan to effectively meet the needs of our customers and consumers. We are confident that the combination of increased sales and operating synergies will create value for Lance, Inc. stockholders.

Jim Hawkins

We remain very excited about our recent acquisition of Bio-logic Systems. We have made great progress in the integration of Bio-logic, including the successful combining of our two sales and marketing organizations. We are also making significant operational changes to the organization that will make their operations more efficient. We remain very confident that the acquisition of Bio-logic will be accretive to our earnings in 2006 and beyond.

Alan McCollough

We remain dissatisfied in the overall sales performance of our Circuit City business, ... no new trends on which to base any charges in earnings expectations." ()

Kevin Sharer

We remain confident in our long-term guidance of compound annual growth rate for sales and EPS of low 20s for the 2001-2005 period and sales between $8 billion and $9 billion in 2005,

Matthew Fassler

We remain concerned with the company's longer-term positioning, given its choppy sales showing despite significant store-level investment, and its poor return on capital. The majority of its remodeled stores should have yielded their most significant same-store sales impact in 2002, and we see few tangible growth drivers ahead.

Jeff Bong

We're so thankful. The support of the community both in donations and sales has far exceeded our expectations.

Richard Peddie

What we're missing out on is the single game sales and when you start the season 1-15, that doesn't get the heart racing. People aren't engaged yet.

Janna Sampson

What they're doing to drive sales growth in the U.S. matters the most. We know they're trying to replicate in Europe the great gains they've had in the U.S.

Pat Battle

When we began our analysis of the videogame landscape, it became apparent that EA SPORTS was best positioned from a marketing and development perspective to maximize the sales opportunities for college football.

David Mandelbrot

We've always worked directly with the owners of content to make that content available. In our experience, that has not slowed us down too much, and it has helped us to build strong relationships that have helped us in other parts of our business.

George Campbell

We've always made it a point to be strong from the goal out. Defense is always a priority, but these kids have offensive talent that can't be denied.

Larry Goodnature

We've always known we were strong up top, and (Thursday) we got a chance to see it. We needed them to step up, and they did.

Adam Pine

We've always had it in us. The men's team will keep getting stronger and stronger.

Adam Pine

We've always had it in us. I think the men's team will continue to get stronger and stronger and we'll be winning many gold medals in the future.

Scott Aiges

We've always had a strong presence (at SXSW), but this year's going to be bigger and better.

Mark Joseph

We've always had a School Committee member or two on these committees, and I feel very strongly that should continue. We need to know what we're bringing in.

Kevin Cato

We've always felt like our defense was one of the stronger points of our game. Our goal was to have a hand in their face for the full 94 feet of the floor and that would hopefully take away some of their shooting ability.

Eric Thurston

When we were there at the beginning of the year, they handed it to us pretty good. We have to make sure we come out, play well and play smart. We have to be very strong in our own end. Defensive zone coverage is going to be key.

Martin Brodeur

We're just worried about what we do on the ice. Whoever runs the ship will surely be a good fit for us.

Guillermo Ortiz

We expect vigorous growth for the first quarter of the year. If we continue having this type of industrial production data we will surely have to revise growth (estimates) upwards.

Peter Chandler

We're just about through the earnings season. We have to go through this bump and grind. I think it will probably be like this for several months yet to come, until the market starts to focus on looking beyond the short term to the recovery that surely will follow.

Grover Cleveland

Unswerving loyalty to duty, constant devotion to truth, and a clear consciencewill overcome every discouragement and surely lead the way to usefulness andhigh achievement.

Helen Sharman

Is a one-way trip to Mars ever really seriously going to happen? Surely that's morally reprehensible. However old people are, however much they say they want to go on a one-way mission, people should be thinking about the possibility of returning.

Philip Stanhope

Words, which are the dress of thoughts, deserve surely more care than clothes, which are only the dress of the person.

Joseph B. Wirthlin

Pride and vanity, the opposites of humility, can destroy our spiritual health as surely as a debilitating disease can destroy our physical health.

James E. Faust

The Holy Ghost bears witness to us of the truth and impresses upon our souls the reality of God the Father and His Son, Jesus Christ, so surely that no earthly power or authority can separate us from that knowledge.

Katharine Lee Bates

Surely martyrs, irrespective of the special phase of the divine idea for which they gladly give up their bodies to torture and to death, are the truest heroes of history.

J. M. Roberts

We've always said this about Alaska: nasty-ass weather, warm people. I never experienced 32 below before. ... My Irish blood has been thinned out by years of living in California.

John Cohen

We're going to get a little break here and a slow warming trend.

David Phillips

What we're saying is from Vancouver to Thunder Bay, Ont., that western part of Canada is looking like it'll be warmer than normal, so it's a continuation of what the fall has been like.

Jim McCarthy

When we had that warm weather in January, we knew we were going to be in trouble.

Frank Staffen

We got to the tournament a little later than we normally do and the kids had to warm up real fast.

Bill Dreher

We believe this update is a combination of management's typical conservatism and sales sluggishness from the unusually warm weather.

Jose Andres Puerta

With their bright color and fantastic balance of acidity and sweetness, tomatoes are a natural refresher and the perfect element for meals on warm and sultry days.

Al Seckel

It is easier for a libertarian to attack the science of global warming than to alter one's core libertarian beliefs.

Sadhu Johnston

We're monitoring the equipment. As soon as that's done and the weather breaks, we'll be up there.

Dan Glickman

We're spending today, depending upon which agency of government, significantly more money on fire preparedness and treatment than we were spending in 1993, ... I think the real issue is that we have a situation that has been unparalleled in the last 50 years right now, and that has to do with what I call 'the perfect storm' phenomenon of weather and fuel loads.

Scott Wilson

We're going to take as long as it takes. Our people are very good at human remains recovery and we're having some inclement weather now that we're taking precautions against.

Jim McCarthy

When we had that warm weather in January, we knew we were going to be in trouble.

Kevin Rollins

When we got out there (Tuesday), the weather had turned kinda bad. It was cold and windy and not at all like the weather we'd practiced so well in during the past few days. We're just glad to see the kids still perform and not get thrown off by anything, then go out and get the win.

Nick Saban

When we get weather that's disruptive, which we've had now two years in a row, I think that's benefit number one.

Shirley Christian

We felt it was a success, and the weather was great.

Bill Dreher

We believe this will have a negative impact on February sales for the majority of our retailers as the much colder weather will likely impede store traffic, and sales of spring merchandise sets that are now in stores may be impacted.
