Additional Quotes
The creation of large liquid benchmarks will improve the trading turnover in the secondary market as this is expected to, among others, reduce the bid-offer spreads on bond prices. Participants will be able to get in or out of the benchmark issues more easily, making trading in Philippine bonds comparable to those in other emerging markets. This will be highly attractive to foreign investors in the market and bring additional business opportunities to the local financial community. This effort will complement earlier initiatives in capital market development, including the creation of the Fixed Income Exchange.

Aspect Quotes
Some of everything happened out there. Basically, we were outplayed. In every aspect of the game, we were outplayed.

It's just collectively as a group we need to come together.

Mistakes Quotes
Most software lets you set formatting so that it stays consistent, no matter how it's entered by the end user. The problem with Microsoft CRM was that there was no such formatting. If you made a mistake, if you put a dash in the wrong place or didn't put a bracket around the area code, you couldn't search for the phone number because it didn't recognize it. In version 3.0, they've fixed that so you can standardize formatting.

Antithesis Quotes
one that was the antithesis of 'The Fragile,' which was complex. Songs flowed into each other, and it was layered. This record I wanted to be as stripped down as possible.

Actual Quotes
Museums, museums, museums, object-lessons rigged out to illustrate the unsound theories of archaeologists, crazy attempts to co-ordinate and get into a fixed order that which has no fixed order and will not be co-coordinated! It is sickening! Why must all experience be systematized? A museum is not a first-hand contact: it is an illustrated lecture. And what one wants is the actual vital touch.

Most 401(k) plans give employees limited investment choices such as domestic equity and fixed income products.

Athletic Quotes
My understanding is the athletic director is going to now, hopefully, put it on the front burner this year. In my personal opinion, they were going to fix football before they fixed basketball.

Adulthood Quotes
I grew up watching my grandmother sew things. . . . She never threw things out, she fixed them with a needle and thread. She and I weren't close, but now that I've reached adulthood and have a child of my own, I find myself doing the same things she used to do. This was fascinating for me and I guess it's part of why I decided to make this film.

Amount Quotes
For those that have fixed exchange-rate regimes, you will need a greater amount of foreign reserves. That's the case in Belize, it's the case in the Eastern Caribbean zone and it's also the case in Barbados. In those cases, the level of reserve coverage is one of credit weakness. Where you have a bit more flexibility in the exchange rate ? for instance, Jamaica ? you would require a smaller amount of international reserves.

Both Quotes
I think it's a reasonable premium for both entities. This is an industry where it's tough to justify huge premiums just because it's a very high-asset intensive business, there are high fixed costs and there really aren't much in the way of cost savings that you can justify at the field overhead level or at the retail level.
