This proposal gives automakers another excuse to not make the cars that people want - ones that use available technology to save consumers money at the gas pump and cut pollution. Making our cars and trucks go farther on a gallon of gas is the biggest single step we can take to save money at the gas pump, cut oil dependence, and curb global warming.

Death Quotes
Most people think life sucks, and then you die. Not me. I beg to differ. I think life sucks, then you get cancer, then your dog dies, your wife leaves you, the cancer goes into remission, you get a new dog, you get remarried, you owe ten million dollars in medical bills but you work hard for thirty-five years and you pay it back and then -- one day -- you have a massive stroke, your whole right side is paralyzed, you have to limp along the streets and speak out of the left side of your mouth and drool but you go into rehabilitation and regain the power to walk and the power to talk and then -- one day -- you step off a curb at Sixty-seventh Street, and BANG you get hit by a city bus and then you die. Maybe.

Aggression Quotes
Bullying is a national problem. Middle school seems to be the time that bullying (by males) and relational aggression (by females) is at its worst and is most painful for kids. While there are programs to help curb bullying, we're hoping to help teachers build character in fourth and fifth grade students to prevent bullying in middle school.

Affects Quotes
I think our main concern is in calling for some type of federal policy that affects the issuance of credit cards or any credit to consumers. This is a very competitive business and it does provide a great amount of convenience to consumers. Any effort to curb that would affect a lot of lower income consumers disproportionately.

Account Quotes
Wherever the capital inflows come from, it is clear that Iceland would not have been able to run so large a current account deficit without them and would have had to curb internal demand a while ago. The same is true, of course, of the U.S. (and of the U.K. for that matter). The key question in these instances is how reliable the capital inflows are.

Business Quotes
While overall confidence remains relatively positive, the latest reading reflects growing concerns that U.S. economic growth may be slowing down. And, while the outlook for corporate profits remains optimistic, rising interest rates and oil prices may curb business leaders' projections.

Bank Quotes
We will continue to tighten land sales and bank lending to strictly control the number of new projects and curb the excessive growth in fixed-asset investment to prevent a return to overheated investment. The pressure on resources and environment is mounting, the economy is still hampered by a number of shortages and there're still some unstable factors and uncertainties in development.

Came Quotes
When I reached the concrete area, about 15 or 20 meters from the first row of chairs, I did not realize that there was a relatively high curb from the pavement to the crowd. My left foot came down into the air, because of the difference in height. The momentum, and the law of gravity discovered some time ago by Newton, caused me, when I took that false step, to plunge forward until I fell, in a fraction of a second, onto the pavement.

Add Quotes
We're very pleased with Greyhound's decision to add the D4505 to its fleet. The model's modern style offers plenty of curb appeal, especially with Greyhound's new contemporary livery. The D4505 provides the kind of operating efficiency and superior performance that this carrier has come to expect from our D series coaches.

Cables Quotes
Dinosaurs are the jumper cables to the human mind. Kids can't curb their enthusiasm when they're in a hall of dinosaurs and mammoths and mammoth hunters and trilobites and giant fish that could chomp up a shark. These natural objects in motion and context make kids want to read; you can't stop them from reading and thinking.

Amazing Quotes
Ash was in the States on tour just before Celebration III, so I thought it was the perfect opportunity to stay a few days extra and go as there is nothing like that in Europe, ... I went with some friends from LucasArts (who we got to know through Republic Commando ) and they got me an all-access pass which was sweet. It was an amazing time! The 501st's costumes were fantastic, the presentation of Revenge of the Sith footage whipped everyone into frenzy and George's announcement of the TV series was music to everyone's ears. I loved the Droid Builder's room and it was hard to curb the spending in the exhibition hall. My favorite moment was watching a toddler looking up at Red Royal Guard, awestruck, as her ice cream fell to the floor.

Bills Quotes
The weakening labor market, the continuing high level of house prices in relation to earnings and pressure on householders' finances from the recent hikes in utility and council tax bills are expected to curb demand in the coming months, therefore preventing a sustained acceleration in house price inflation.
