Activity Quotations | Page 3

One of the areas where I see a lot of activity is in-building wireless coverage.

My daughter and I used to play games with buttons. Buttons are a very good activity with children, teaching patterns and colors.

My activity alone got me going. I've been feeling pretty good for a few games. The shots weren't falling, but I'm energized.

More and more companies are discovering that defined-benefit plans are not well-suited to their business realities, their future and the nature of their work force management. We've had a lot of companies terminating for quite some time, and freezing activity has gathered steam as well.

money received by school districts from vendors pursuant to vending concessions contracts and school picture contracts is school district money. The fact that money from these sources is deposited in a school activity fund does not change its character.

Mortgage rates have crept up a bit, but not enough to dampen the enthusiasm for home-buying activity in Greater Cincinnati.

Mortgage approvals are also clearly above their average for the last decade of 100,00 strengthening the argument that the housing market in 2006 will see the first rise in activity since 2002, after three consecutive years of decline.

My great concern is that the tax will not benefit anyone because trading activity will decrease and the revenue collected by the government will therefore fall as well, and the trading will go to other markets.

Oakland is not what it was in the '50s. It's more of a government center now so you just have a different kind of office. ... That's going to foster a different club activity than if you had 25 Fortune 500 companies.

Now that the LCD and plasma TVs have come into the marketplace, they're so much more affordable, roughly a third less than a year ago. The newer TVs are much more decor friendly, so you combine that with the natural sort of affection men have for big TVs during the Super Bowl, and there's a lot of activity out there.

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.

Never before has there been such a flurry of legislative activity on the issue.

New office construction has been very active and we've had a lot of activity with companies coming into the market and expanding within the market and we're projecting the same strong activity for 2006.

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,

Obviously, this is a major activity and people try to take advantage . . . of people's desire to be employed.

No change was no surprise, given recent overall evidence of modestly stronger economic activity and a more robust housing market.

Persons not yet immunized this season can still build immunity against the virus, since the flu season may continue into late February or early March.

One of the key concerns of the Fed has been the wealth effect that the stock market has created. And with the market that we saw this morning, we're likely to see more volatility going forward, especially if it leads to more muted market activity on the return side.

One of the questions I get asked a lot is, 'What do you do to stay in shape?' My glib answer is, 'I play.' But I mean it. Sure, I go to the gym, but I don't spend my life there. Most of my activity is outdoors, whether it's basketball or mountain biking or rock climbing.

I was really trying to sell to people who hate jazz: to make a case for the art form as youthful and energetic, not the sort of rarified intellectual activity it's painted as.

I was surprised that the sales numbers went up, even with the good weather. It doesn't change our view that the general trend in housing activity is downward.

I was surprised. I knew they would be down, but I didn't think by this much. Especially since there was a lot of sales activity in February.

I wouldn't give this a lot of weight and say this is leading the economy. It's sort of catching up to what has been strong economic activity for several months now.

I would characterize hiking as the best nature-based activity for a lifetime of activity, ... It requires a minimal level of gear. Anyone can hike. You can set your own pace, and you can experience the outdoors on your own terms.

I would be concerned that we might be getting ahead of ourselves in thinking this M&A activity is going to persist. If the economic conditions are not right, then it won't.

I work them almost every day, even if it's only five minutes. They want to hunt/work. They need activity every day. If they don't get exercise, they open cupboard doors and get things out or get into the trash.

If we find that there was any quid pro quo, money for pardons, then of course that's a criminal activity and we'll pursue that,

If we even suspect that fraudulent activity could take place, we close those cards to protect those customers. While it's a very, very small number of people that are actually affected by fraud, we cast a wider net.

If we have (economic) activity going up quickly, inflation remaining close to two percent and a high wage deal in Germany, then the guys at the ECB will start to get nervous.

If they're going to give out maps, we're going to use those maps to report that activity to the proper authorities.

If they have a soft drink, they need to make up those calories either through physical activity or through other places in their diet. That's the best way to help out children - to equip them with information so they understand how to eat any food.

If this trading activity is client-driven, oil-related physical assets are certainly not critical. But if your oil trading activity is proprietary-trading oriented, then of course the conclusion is different.

I have definitely seen more smiles around here since Sophie arrived. Residents who wouldn't have necessarily come to the activity room before make several trips a day to see what Sophie's doing.

I don't feel left out because of all the activity around me and I don't force myself to do something drastically new, musically speaking, to compete.

I am encouraged by the resumption of grain movement along the Mississippi River just one week after grain transportation was virtually halted by Hurricane Katrina, ... Clearly, there is much work to be done but I am confident that remaining obstacles will be overcome to resume all activity in a timely manner. We are assuring our international customers that we expect minimal disruptions.

Certainly seeing more merger and acquisition activity going on encourages people too because it's a signal to them that things are undervalued.

Certainly merger and acquisition activity will pick up. There are many small- and medium-size companies that need to consolidate to compete, especially in Italy.

Certain cities are poised to become satellite commercial centers. White Plains is analogous to Stamford in Connecticut and New Brunswick in New Jersey. But New Rochelle will probably never reach that level because it's not as centrally located, and it doesn't have the critical mass of commercial activity to begin with.

But when oil goes up, stocks go down. Crude prices have to crash, but it won't happen until about six weeks after the election. We'll see a lot of activity no matter who's in the White House.

But they are by no means yet approaching the levels of activity seen in 2004.

But the strongest factor by far is water temperature. If the temperature drops, walleye activity will slow along with it.

But the reality is H5N1 activity in a certain place does not mean that we will see a pandemic start there. It could start anywhere. And as always, poorer nations are more vulnerable to disease than wealthier ones.

But the real engine of the Coast's resurrection will be the powerful tax incentives provided by this legislation, principally the accelerated depreciation and private activity bonds.

Business concerns about the potential for a sharp fall in future activity have continued to ease.

Business activity in the services and construction sectors has been accelerating in recent months and is now growing quite quickly, providing momentum for the economy coming into 2005.

BDA was designated because its facilitation of North Korean illicit financial activity presents an unacceptable risk to the U.S. financial system.

Because of the rise in home values, much of that financial distress has been covered by the increasing amount of equity that people have had in their homes. That equity is now being created at a slower pace, and default activity is inevitably on the rise.

Because of the limited usefulness I see in my continued service, I have reached the conclusion that it is best to cease my activity in the public arena,

I'm always happy to find an activity that's not sitting in front of a box.

I have been here a long time, and I have seen this cycle happen before. I'll wait awhile and see if this flurry of activity leads to anything permanent.

I can't imagine a worse nightmare ... than being accused of criminal activity you did not do.

Growth is proceeding on a solid pace this year, and inflation is low and stable. Plausible rates of moderation in housing activity will not pose a problem for overall activity this year or next.

From a development standpoint, the perceptions of the market are as important as the economics, and any activity to promote the industry is probably important to alleviate market concerns.

For September, domestic funds are performing pretty much as usual. Based on our activity so far, we're looking at an in flow of $20 billion for equities.

Further, while we are hopeful that, in aggregate, we are seeing a bottoming in activity levels, there is no convincing evidence that our North American markets will rebound meaningfully before year-end. In addition, European, Asian and, to a lesser extent, South American markets are beginning to decline in lagged response to the North American weakness.

Futures are not for everyone, but with major stock indexes flat to down over the past five-year period, even buy-and-hold equity strategies have risks. With the recent activity in foreign exchange rates and commodities such as oil and metals, we anticipate even more investors will look at futures in the coming year.

Further evidence of stability in the housing market and solid retail activity could prompt a rethink of MPC easing risk now priced in, allowing the euro to retreat sharply against the pound.

from the U.S. point of view, the broader picture is to stop the proliferation activity and to help the international community get at the networks that have been involved.

If anyone looks at this at all, they'll see this is about an illegal activity and not a legalized slots parlor. And the NHL's position is very clear. The league is against gambling on hockey. A slots parlor is about a gaming operation involving slots.

I expect there will be improvements in the trade balance and business investment and in inventories so that the overall pace of activity will accelerate in the third quarter,

From the top of our heads to the bottom of our toes, physical activity is the stimulus that gets almost all our organs working at their best.

Forty-seven percent of the refinery activity in the U.S. is in the Gulf. That was bolstering the price of unleaded gasoline and home-heating oil, and pulling up crude prices with it.

Fortunately, continued job and income growth and the overall economy growth will help to offset the fall in housing activity that otherwise would occur.

Fortunately, as the weather turns colder, the threat for infection from mosquitoes will subside. Mosquito activity lessens greatly after the first hard frost.

For, to appreciate a work of art we need bring with us nothing from life, no knowledge of its ideas and affairs, no familiarity with its emotions. Art transports us from the world of man's activity to a world of aesthetic exaltation. For a moment we are shut off from human interests; our anticipations and memories are arrested; we are lifted above the stream of life.

Given the sad state of affairs of the activity habits of our young people, desperate times call for desperate measures. We've got to pull out all stops to get young people more active.

GOD is all-powerful; God is everywhere; God is all knowing. To adore such a formidable limitless principle, man spends a few minutes out of the 24 hours and uses a minute idol, image or picture! It is indeed ridiculous; it is practically futile. Adore Him so long as you have breath and so long as you are conscious. Have no other thought than God, have no other aim than knowing His command; no other activity than translating that command into action. That is what is meant by Surrender. Surrender yourself unto Him.

If we are right that both the pace of economic activity and corporate earnings are still fraught with near-term, downside risk, equity values and risk spreads will carry a recession uncertainty premium for some time -- a premium that the Fed will still want to counter.

If we allow this kind of activity to go on, we're really endangering the long-term prosperity of our country. It's very much a stewardship issue.

If oil continues to stay at these levels for a sustained period, it will bite into economic activity and renew inflationary pressure. That could put into question if and when the Fed will end its tightening cycle.

He has created duties only to foster the consciousness of all living beings. He has no activity and no obligation. He brings about the result for every activity. Without Him, no activity can yield result! He decides which result should accrue from which act.

There is no connection whatsoever between us and this attack. The Liberation Tigers were not involved in any activity that breaches the cease-fire agreement.

There is going to be some activity around the league, whether there is going to be a lot depends on what happens (in the standings) over the next week. How many teams will fall far back enough out that they'll feel they are out (of the race)?

The purpose of the activity is to bring horsemen, horse lovers, lovers of art, and artists together with the general public. It's very difficult to find that kind of art.

We just have to convince (Collins) that there's activity at the position other than just throwing your big body at somebody to block him. But he's adapted to it pretty well. He's still working at it, but he's on track.

With mortgage rates still low, there is no evidence yet that levels of housing activity are declining to any great extent.

With M&A activity up, we're seeing more condensing of things like duplicate headquarters, banks on adjacent corners, duplicate warehouses, ... It's definitely something that's going to fuel more downsizing in 2004.

With M&A activity picking up, productivity growth will stay robust, and that means continued new efficiencies, and a lot of that will overshadow new job creation.

We suspect economic activity over much of 2006 will be held back by sluggish consumer spending and that the Bank of England's growth forecast will prove to be too optimistic.

We are facing an epidemic of obesity that threatens the public health of California and the rest of the nation. We must improve our children's nutrition and level of physical activity if we are going to reverse this trend.
