Analysis Quotations | Page 3

It is always beneficial to get an objective, third-party analysis to learn how this agency can become more efficient and effective. DCEO has already begun implementing corrective actions to improve our processes.

I think any thorough analysis of the gubernatorial elections is going to show that the elections were decided on local and state issues and the candidates and their agendas, ... I do not think you can conclude it represents any larger trend whatsoever." ()

Our water system has submitted the laboratory analysis results to the Georgia Environmental Protection Division in Atlanta and they have authorized us to rescind the advisory, ... Employees of the water system have already been door to door passing out fliers indicating that the water is safe for consumption.

Our cash-burn analysis has implied that Delta would reach a bankruptcy-risk cash level by (the fourth quarter) without additional liquidity.

Our findings are particularly noteworthy in that aspirin's main beneficial effects appeared to be the reduction in the risk of stroke for women and reduction in the risk of heart attacks for men. While our analysis showed that aspirin may have different effects in men and women, the relatively small number of heart attacks among women and strokes among men suggest that more research is needed to better understand any differences in cardiovascular responses to aspirin.

Our goal is to do everything practical to make Broadwater the best possible solution to meet this region's growing energy needs. We understand that no major energy project will be embraced by everyone when first introduced, but we are confident that the facts and extensive analysis presented in this filing will demonstrate to all that Broadwater will be safe, reliable, and environmentally sound energy supply source, as well as one with a profound impact on the regional natural gas prices faced by rate payers.

Our study provides a fundamentally new level of analysis by which we can better understand the actions of cocaine in brain-reward regions at the molecular level. It also points to new potential treatments for addiction.

I tend to regard the Coase theorem as a stepping stone on the way to an analysis of an economy with positive transaction costs.

I tend to take a common-sense approach to problem-solving, and oftentimes that involves the use of quantitative analysis. I do have an appreciation for the collection, analysis and application of information, both as it relates to our business operations and to our baseball operations.

I think that's more a factor for the national media than it is for the players that play here. If you do a statistical analysis of this ballpark since then, it's settled back to the middle of the pack, ... It certainly wasn't the offensive Mecca that some people thought it was.

It is a digital enhancer for the MRI, CT and ultra sound. It allows better analysis for both technicians and physicians and also allows us to e-mail slides to other physicians or if a radiologist is not on duty at the time the test is performed.

It is a facade. They will simply use the same analysis but come to different conclusions.

I think we very much want to put those things into the show that lead to discussion and analysis and that's what makes the show engaging. It's not a show in which everything is spoon-fed to you, which is the problem with a lot of American television. There is room for ambiguity in this story.

It all rolls up and I think in the final analysis somewhere it's going to hit the consumer.

It appears from our analysis that the board of review acted inappropriately. Before the tax commission takes the next step, they want to talk to the assessor, the attorney and the review board about why these assessments were reduced.

It is abundantly clear to me that your agency is unlawfully targeting Mr. Locker in retaliation for his independent legal analysis of your proposed meal period regulation,

I think we need a full analysis of both options. I?m arguing both be equally analyzed before a decision be reached.

Typically, self-service technologies provide very limited visibility into what customers are truly seeking; and more ineptly, search-based tools do not provide insight into the level of satisfaction achieved by the tool. The ASA differs by capturing each and every customer query, providing a real-time snapshot of customer concerns and offering advanced tools for the analysis and management of interactions. The result is not only improved performance to tens of thousands of self service support sessions each day, but a happier and more satisfied customer.

We'll run two or three simulations at the same time, but we have difficulty shifting output around -- the files that come out are huge. Let's say you want to get them over to someone in Lafayette or Lake Charles and have them do an analysis while we do something else.

We had one situation a couple of years ago where we had a disgruntled user who figured out a way to hit the system hard. He got 83 slots between Aspen, Eagle and Rifle. We noticed that, so we just canceled them. We do watch that. There is some logic in the system for how soon there can be another reservation. There is some analysis there, and some monitoring to try to keep it reasonable.

You do need to know what the health risks of your population are. That's what the health risk analysis is for ? it's an important starting gate. It'll show if you have a higher proportion of smokers, if your employees have more of a disposition to diabetes or bad health.

Unfortunately, the proponents of censorship won out by inflaming false fears that this critical analysis lesson plan is the equivalent of teaching intelligent design.

I would like to thank Adair Turner and his fellow commissioners for their thorough analysis of this important issue. The Commission has had a hard look at the pension system in the UK, and has set out the stark challenges we all face in providing for increasingly long retirements. This report brings home the message the Government first highlighted in the 2002 Green Paper; that people must either save more or work longer.

The analysis we've done -- the rigorous structural analysis based on the last inspection report -- indicates that this bridge should not have fallen down on its own accord without something else happening to it.

The analysis assumes that individuals maximize welfare as they conceive it, whether they be selfish, altruistic, loyal, spiteful, or masochistic. Their behavior is forward-looking, and it is also consistent over time.

The analysis of alternatives did nothing more than endorse the very concept of the obvious.

The analysis of the research showed that what distinguishes Loudoun County from competitors is the county's veritable treasure trove of diverse assets including one of the largest international airports in the world, one of country's most educated workforces, thriving rural businesses, entrepreneurialism, and a beautiful community of rural landscapes, historic towns, and well-planned suburban developments.

The analysis provided the commission by the department of defense about the national homeland security value of the base was seriously flawed.

The analysis reveals great variation within New Orleans, but there is a general tendency for blacks and poor residents to have greater odds of being in harm's way, because they lived in less desirable, low-lying areas.

The analysis said a new interchange wouldn't draw traffic away from Route 18. Many people would probably still use the Route 18 interchange even if there was a new interchange nearby.

The analysis said the bridge needs to be completely replaced. The plan is to build a new bridge to the north, so there is a better (road) alignment when you come out of Red Bank.

The analysis says it's not happening. In Chicago, people are not being stopped based on race.

The analysis they got does not include what we're getting.

The AP's analysis of health risks posed by industrial pollution across the country is a substantial contribution to the public's understanding of where greater attention needs to be focused.

We have all the data from the beginning of time, and we use it extensively for analysis purposes.

Utilizing a tested composition of technical and fundamental analysis and refined modeling, Short-Term Discretionary Futures captures momentum primarily using index futures. The result is a well-executed program structured to exploit directional bias and manage position risk.

We have also witnessed members of the task force announcing their intentions to do what they can to stop Broadwater, even before the review and analysis by FERC. This has raised continued concerns about the impartiality of the task force, and this forum.

Microsoft has cleaned up its development process overall by emphasizing security threat analysis and reducing the attack surface in their code. They have made progress, so I am not surprised that there is less likely to be vulnerabilities in IE than in any other browser.

It is inherent in the nature of the capitalistic economy that, in the final analysis, the employment of the factors of production is aimed only toward serving the wishes of consumers.

There is in the universe something for the description and analysis of which the natural sciences cannot contribute anything. There are events beyond the range of those events that the procedures of the natural sciences are fit to observe and describe. There is human action.

We made a very thorough analysis of that recommendation, and when we got done all the chiefs agreed with the commanders in the field that the numbers of the troops in the field then, as now, are appropriate to what we were fighting.

We are bemused by the length of time it is taking for the partners to announce the go-ahead for this project. Our analysis shows clearly that the economics of less attractive projects in the region are compelling at prices significantly lower than the current spot levels.

We do not have specific information suggesting this ore or tailings were naturally elevated in arsenic. Sampling and analysis of the ore or tailings away from the sludge disposal are needed. We are recommending to EPA that Ford do additional background sampling to obtain this data.

We have successfully collected samples from the comet and we're bringing them home for analysis in laboratories all over the world.

We provide commentary and analysis of what's going on in the world, and a world view from a white person's perspective.

We are training for objective behavior characteristics. Certainly, there is some interpretation, but there has to be such an aggregate number of concerns before we do get involved, and there will be constant review and oversight and analysis of the data to be sure their folks are performing in a proper manner.

We do this analysis every year. The district develops a plan, implements the plan, and the budget are the dollars to support the plan.

We'll want them to pull in all that information and sort it out between rumor and suspicion and fact and speculation and misinformation and do an assessment, do an analysis and then communicate it -- if it's a real threat -- communicate that to state and local governments,

My favourite fellow of the Royal Society is the Reverend Thomas Bayes, an obscure 18th-century Kent clergyman and a brilliant mathematician who devised a complex equation known as the Bayes theorem, which can be used to work out probability distributions. It had no practical application in his lifetime, but today, thanks to computers, is routinely used in the modelling of climate change, astrophysics and stock-market analysis.

Salinger is a master of the memorable detail, the seemingly random gesture, the debris of mundane daily operations, the stuff that is left out of any analysis.

The whole art of making experiments in chemistry is founded on the principle: we must always suppose an exact equality or equation between the principles of the body examined and those of the products of its analysis.

We may lay it down as an incontestible axiom, that, in all the operations of art and nature, nothing is created; an equal quantity of matter exists both before and after the experiment; the quality and quantity of the elements remain precisely the same; and nothing takes place beyond changes and modifications in the combination of these elements. Upon this principle the whole art of performing chemical experiments depends: We must always suppose an exact equality between the elements of the body examined and those of the products of its analysis.

There are a lot of federal district court judges who would not have given these issues the kind of careful research, thought and analysis that Sessions did. He moves very deliberately and very carefully, which means that it less likely that an appellate court is going to find that Sessions made a mistake.

As a science, logic institutes an analysis of the process of the mind in reasoning, and investigating the principles on which argumentation is conducted; as an art, it furnishes such rules as may be derived from those principles, for guarding against erroneous deductions.

We share the same analysis and the same goals,

Every novel deals with social problems. It can't help it because the protagonist must come in conflict with his group. So the author has to offer an analysis of how the group and the protagonist fit. Otherwise, the reader will just say, "This makes no sense," and will put it away.

We host 40% of the major sites on the Internet, and so statistically, we are going to see a good fraction of those, ... It's not infrequent. It just means that we have to do more sophisticated analysis and have a wider range of addresses that we filter for.

All analyses end badly. Each 'termination' leaves the participants with the taste of ashes in their mouths; each is absurd; each is a small, pointless death. Psychoanalysis cannot tolerate happy endings; it casts them off the way the body's immunological system casts off transplanted organs.

We had no idea there were any issues. They told us they were doing a cost analysis to see if it was cost-effective for them to take over the land.

This progress in the molecular analysis of the cell cycle led to more interest being taken in my work and as a consequence to greater competition.

The real question is whether all your pondering and analyses will convince you that life is worth living. That's what it all comes down to.

There's been essentially the same analysis over and over again and very little allowance made for different views and interpretations and reflections.

What is quite worrisome is the absence of analysis and reflection. Take the word "terrorism." It has become synonymous now with anti-Americanism, which, in turn, has become synonymous with being critical of the United States, which, in turn, has become synonymous with being unpatriotic. That's an unacceptable series of equations.

It would be naïve to imagine that any analysis of experience is dependent on pattern expressed in language. Any concept, whether or not it forms part of the system of grammatical categories, can be conveyed in any language. If a notion is lacking in a given series, it implies a different configuration and not a lack of expressive power.

There is a limit to the number of things you can look at. Technical analysis can help catch the myriad of other factors out there that one is not specifically monitoring.

[The Freedom of Information Act is] the Taj Mahal of the Doctrine of Unanticipated Consequences, the Sistine Chapel of Cost-Benefit Analysis Ignored.

An investment operation is one which, upon thorough analysis, promises safety of principal and an adequate return.

We are convinced that the intelligent investor can derive satisfactory results from pricing of either type (market timing or fundamental analysis via price). We are equally sure that if he places his emphasis on timing, in the sense of forecasting, he will end up as a speculator and with a speculator's financial results." And "The speculator's primary interest lies in anticipating and profiting from market fluctuations. The investor's primary interest lies in acquiring and holding suitable securities at suitable prices.

Individual security bargains may be located by the process of security analysis practically at any time. They can be bought with good overall results at all periods except when the general market itself is clearly in a selling range for investors. They show up to best advantage during the years in which the market remains in a relatively narrow and neutral area.

The ideal form of common stock analysis leads to a valuation of the issue which can be compared with the current price to determine whether or not the security is an attractive purchase.

Gossip, or, as we gossips like to say, character analysis.

Maybe, in the final analysis, they saw me as something I wasn't and I tried to turn them into something they could never be. I loved them all but maybe I never understood any of them. I don't think they understood me.

Network Spinal Analysis inspires us to trust the healing power within.

The program commission aimed to provide the executive board with recommendations based on a fair and wide analysis of the situation with an emphasis on the relevance of events and disciplines for future generations as well as the participation of women,

This study supports what we've been learning about the Greenland ice sheet, which is that it will completely melt within 500 to 1,000 years. Our new analysis of the ancient Scandinavian Ice Sheet, like other studies, is showing how these events unfolded in the past, which will help us better understand what the future will hold.

The project is in planning, but how it impacts the plan is too early to know. We'll have to do the analysis and incorporate that in the discovery.

When you see 'critical analysis of evolution,' you really need to look at what's behind that. Who? Why? Why is there this need for critical analysis of evolution? Why is there no call for critical analysis of plate tectonics?

Those are facts and there has been no analysis done on any of this.

We are looking at the range of sanctions; talking to people in the industry, people who work with Microsoft; people who manufacture computers and we're doing an analysis to make sure that we have a remedy that will promote competition, assure innovation and promote consumer choice,

We are able to make improvements because of the nutritional analysis software and the data it provides. We use the data to help put us in line with the wellness policy. So far we have very happy results.

The data from the ongoing engineering analysis on the PAL ramp seems to be pointing in the direction of not flying with the PAL ramp for STS-121.

Awe is an intuition for the dignity of all things, a realization that things not only are what they are but also stand, however remotely, for something supreme. Awe is a sense for transcendence, for the reference everywhere to mystery beyond all things. It enables us to perceive in the world intimations of the divine. ... to sense the ultimate in the common and the simple: to feel in the rush of the passing the stillness of the eternal. What we cannot comprehend by analysis, we become aware of in awe.

The Analytical Engine has no pretensions whatever to originate anything. It can do whatever we know how to order it to perform. It can follow analysis; but it has no power of anticipating any analytical relations or truths. Its province is to assist us to making available what we are already acquainted with.

In studying the action of the Analytical Engine, we find that the peculiar and independent nature of the considerations which in all mathematical analysis belong to operations, as distinguished from the objects operated upon and from the results of the operations performed upon those objects, is very strikingly defined and separated.

It were much to be desired, that when mathematical processes pass through the human brain instead of through the medium of inanimate mechanism, it were equally a necessity of things that the reasonings connected with operations should hold the same just place as a clear and well-defined branch of the subject of analysis, a fundamental but yet independent ingredient in the science, which they must do in studying the engine.

Indeed we may consider the engine as the material and mechanical representative of analysis, and that our actual working powers in this department of human study will be enabled more effectually than heretofore to keep pace with our theoretical knowledge of its principles and laws, through the complete control which the engine gives us over the executive manipulation of algebraical and numerical symbols.

We need not be intimidated by the wine snob because we know that, in the last analysis, he is only putting on a front. He may know more than we do, but how little he knows in comparison with what there is to know Wine, a hobby as fascinating and as human as one can find. One of the most fascinating aspects of the wine-hobby is the extent to which you learn all the time

There can be no acceptable future without an honest analysis of the past.

The expert analysis did not find mistakes in the actions of members of the crisis centre.

The expertise offered by John Jay College in this area is proving very valuable to us. The analysis and validation of international crime statistics from our member countries helps us to ensure that this material is of high quality, reliable and useful.

The fact that the FISA court released this opinion today is an important breakthrough for our oversight effort, ... We have never had access to this kind of information before. It will contribute to the analysis we've got under way and help us determine what is wrong with the FISA process...

It was time to take the pumpkin out of the pot and eat it. In the final analysis, that was what solved these big problems of life. You could think and think and get nowhere, but you still had to eat your pumpkin. That brought you down to earth. That gave you a reason for going on. Pumpkin.

The study of social progress is to-day not less needed in literature than is the analysis of the human heart.

Literature is analysis after the event.

John Paul II made it clear that... liberation theology based on the teaching of Jesus Christ was necessary, but liberation theology that used a Marxist analysis was unacceptable.

A great advantage of X-ray analysis as a method of chemical structure analysis is its power to show some totally unexpected and surprising structure with, at the same time, complete certainty.
