I think the repeat findings would be the result of the audit cycle to a great extent. The agency had just two months to make changes based on his recommendations. We fully expected the possibility of repeat findings.

I think there's still a lot of investors -- particularly the shorter-term investors -- who are looking to sell strength. They're trying to shore up their accounts by selling strength in this market.

Remind yourself regularly that you are better than you think you are. Successful people are not superhuman. Success does not require a super-intellect. Nor is there anything mystical about success.

Reputation is based on network parameters that are almost impossible to obfuscate.

Re-Mission works. It gives teens and young adults a sense of power and control over their cancer.

Our whole dynamic is kind of based around that push and pull. Marco is a very skilled jazz musician and I'm rock oriented. When we first started out, that's the way it was, he was very jazz, and I was very rock, and I think that's what has made the sound and the album special. But we've evolved to retain both of those features within ourselves as a result of playing together.

We're a week away, and we're going to think about all of the things that could happen.

Our business is based in Nashville, and it always will be, but New York City is still our No. 1 or No. 2 market. There's an amazing history of country music here; most people just don't realize. Garth (Brooks) is still the biggest concert that was ever in (Central) Park.

Our call was based on the next six to nine months where we think that oil pricing is at the top end of its trading range. And speaking about the production cutbacks that you alluded to, we are concerned that the OPEC nations will start to overproduce once again going forward over the next several months because of how high oil prices currently are, ...

Our core markets in the Greater Washington, DC region are strong, as evidenced by the 9% and 10% same store NOI growth for the last two quarters, respectively, as well as our 2.1 million square feet of leasing activity for 2005.

Our target is to deliver demonstrable evidence to our customer that in-hub electric-drive is mature enough to meet the FRES requirement and that the hybrid power architecture can be successfully integrated with an open standards electronic architecture. Further, this is an excellent opportunity for the customer to evaluate the transformational benefits of a hybrid-electric drive that offers track-like performance at wheeled vehicle costs, which has the capability to quickly balance or shift power to mission systems that may have different requirements based on mission profile. This optimizes performance for fuel efficiency, and removes traditional armored fighting-vehicle drive line constraints, which will significantly reduce the whole-life cost of ownership.

I think public perception is a big part when you talk about selling, ... In order to move things forward, if the decision was based on the performance of the club, obviously not getting into postseason is a big role in that, but I also think the fact that I became a lightning rod for criticism for the organization, with me out of the picture, it makes things easier from that respect.

It feels good to win because it's an award based not only on your athletic ability but also on community service and academics. I think that's what I'm really all about.

Keating understood the power of tradition yet he loved to break the rules and create a new orthodoxy. That's what he did as treasurer saying, in effect, that Labor runs a market model with equity, and it worked. When he became PM, he tried to construct a new set of Labor beliefs based on Asian engagement, reconciliation and the republic. For Keating, these weren't just policies; they were the new Labor template handed down from the mount. The trouble, of course, was his inability to convert a lot of the public.

I think the opportunity is certainly there for Republicans simply based on the governor's record, ... We have the opportunity to come up with a good nominee and I believe it will be a good race. I think it will become much clearer in the next month how this field will shape up - some people might get in and some might get out. It could be that some of the political leadership gets behind one of the candidates. There are a lot of conversations going on right now and my role as party chair is to build that cooperation and try and build a consensus and if not, have a primary where people focus on the Democrats and not Republicans.

I think the optimism is based on reality.

I think the party is narrowly based. And a narrowly based party can't win a broadly based country.

It is not only about the ones that are still here that we worry about but also about the others that are still in Louisiana. They are still trying to get pets out of the city.

Most rescue groups get broadcast messages on animal in distress and pet finders and they are still trying to find homes for these pets.

It is obvious, moreover, that the formation of price in capitalist society must differ from the formation of price in social conditions based upon the simple production of commodities.

It is not awkward at all. There is a hierarchy and you follow the hierarchy. He is the defensive coordinator. It is not how old you are. He has been doing this for a very long time for someone his age. The hierarchy is also based on how well you do your job, and he does his job very well. He has earned the respect.
