I'm sure that nobody in China would be arrested or detained because of their ideas or any proposals that are not illegal.

In his role as chairman, Mr. Winnick along with the rest of the board of directors continue to encourage the company in approaching potential equity investors and work to develop a specific proposal. Mr. Winnick has made no personal commitment to invest at this time. Mr. Winnick is very supportive of the current restructuring process enabling multiple proposals to be put forth for consideration by the creditors.

I know that the committee is going to have some hard decisions ahead of it because I imagine all proposals will be impressive,

I'm not sure anything has changed .... Mr. Layton is not happy with the proposals he's had. He's not been happy with them for a while. And I'm not sure what his next move is, but it seems to me that he's still looking for leverage to get more out of the government rather than let the Canadian people have their say,

I'm not familiar with what districts in Wayne County put forth, but the proposals we're asking voters to consider are for items the community at large has determined are things that they want to see corrected.

The Administration estimates that its HSA-related tax proposals would cost $156 billion over the next ten years, which would worsen the nation's fiscal problems. Professor Gruber's study raises very serious questions about the wisdom of these proposals.

It totally gets us out of the box. We're sitting in our cubes trying to do work, working on computers, pumping out proposals and now we're sitting in a bumper car approaching our co-workers at 12 miles an hour ramming them and hoping the ball falls out of their little stick. It's totally different but it's a really good time.

This is less about Americans' addiction to oil than to Republican politicians' addiction to polls. The rhetoric is bracing but the proposals are mercifully trivial.

It's not about conquering, it's about convincing, persuading about our concrete proposals with transparency and honesty.

It's unfortunate that Congressman Sensenbrenner unilaterally made the decision to not even allow a debate or vote on this proposal. Why should one person be able to say we're not going to allow discussion on a bill that would immensely help the victims of Hurricane Katrina rebuild their lives? Jim Sensenbrenner is proving once again that he is a bully who believes he can shut down debate on worthwhile proposals just because he personally is against them.

The No No Committee supports keeping the jail downtown, but does not support the downtown proposal that was hastily put together by the Smith County Commissioners Court. Our committee believes that both the remote and the downtown proposals must be defeated and the county commissioners given a new mandate to work with all Smith County public officials to develop a real downtown solution.

The new proposals outlined today would make suppliers accountable to the police and remove the anonymity of purchasers to deter impulsive purchases and irresponsible sales,

The next step is to review the two proposals we have received and pick the best one.

It's unlikely that he will do something more extensive than government recommended in its proposed remedy. But his ruling is likely to be closer to the government's proposals than to Microsoft's.

That's certainly an improvement over previous proposals by Transportation. Hopefully citizens of Halifax will never need this highway.

The jobs and growth proposals the president announced on Tuesday constitute a focused plan to increase capital formation, to encourage consumer spending, to promote small business growth, boost confidence in our markets and give critical help to our unemployed citizens, ... We urge Congress to act swiftly to pass this package.

The U.S. has to come forward with some serious proposals for reform, or we will see more trade-violation cases brought against the U.S. and the EU, and the Doha round will be a failure,

It?s disturbing, to say the least, that Brittany Farms has offered no new proposals in the last two negotiation sessions. It would appear that Brittany Farms is not interested in working together to reach a mutual agreement.

It's difficult because everyone wants to know why. It's about the cities still in the process, and it's frustrating to not be able to talk more freely about it. (Richmond and Kansas City) both had proposals that were credible, and you could visualize it working. But it's a question of who presents the best overall approach of the five.

They can do whatever they want to do. I know what I want to do. What I want to do is have a conversation with the American people. I would like to have people who watch the debate come away with an understanding of what our proposals are.

I have recently moved away but I am glad to hear the proposals were withdrawn. It was just the wrong site for a caravan park of that scale and the roads around it were entirely unsuitable.

In this election, many Canadians are asking, 'What are you going to do about my high taxes, how are your proposals going to improve my job prospects, what fresh ideas do you offer to keep my country together?'

Investors should view both the DOJ's and Microsoft's remedy proposals as the two end points in the spectrum of possible outcomes. However, given Judge Jackson's negative stance toward Microsoft throughout the entire legal proceeding, we suspect that the remedy judgment will more closely align with the government's proposal than Microsoft's version.

He's spending like a drunken sailor, and he's now taking what are essentially routine staff-issued documents and claiming they're legislative proposals on the table. It's another hypocritical attempt to distort his own record and make Marylanders forget about his awful record. Voters are smarter than that.

I don't think much of dwelling for now on individual proposals for the final form of the European Union, who contradicted whom,

Generally speaking, the proposals fall into three categories.

Generally, we would be more likely to favor proposals that allow for flexibility and responding to consumer needs versus mandates that don't allow any flexibility, but we'd really need to look at the specifics to come out with any position.

These tax-cut proposals are especially encouraging. Cutting taxes on workers and businesses creates jobs.

It's clear that the president and his allies in the House are using Katrina as cover for ramming through proposals to weaken the Clean Air Act.

Any of these proposals has an element of bailout. They are subsidizing companies that are running at a deficit.

Are there any real protectionist proposals that have chance of enactment? No. The most negative thing I would say is that the prospects for further trade liberalization are not great, but what we've got in place will stay in place.

A number of countries, including Russia and China, have put forward proposals to regulate aspects of the Internet like 'crime' and 'security' that are currently unregulated at the global level due to lack of international consensus over what those terms actually mean or over how to balance enforcement with the protection of citizens' rights.

You've got a lot of proposals that have been advocated by a lot of people,

The hard work over the past two years, of intensive and widespread consultation and of putting the proposals together, will be lost. Worse, the mutual trust we have taken pains to build between the central government and ourselves, the trust we need to take our democratization forward, will dissipate.

The document is fabulous. There were proposals to create a governmental organization that might control many technical aspects of the Internet and, through this, content as well. This is now off the table. There is no change to the U.S. role, no change to ICANN.

The European community has taken the lead in this and we expect to meet in Beijing in January. By then we hope to have specific proposals for the structure of a funding mechanism, ... It may well be that some countries are prepared to commit funds before then. But we hope by early next year to have that trust fund available.

You can't have costs ahead of your unit revenues. What I wake up at night worrying about is that our proposals are not aggressive enough.

These findings raise serious questions about the future of the U.S. income tax system. The majority of the federal tax burden is being borne by a shrinking pool of taxpayers. As Congress considers tax reform proposals during the coming year, this is an issue lawmakers should begin to debate.

For every one that actually gets built, there must be at least 50 or 60 proposals that don't happen. There's five or six built around the world every year and if anything, you know there's a couple more being built every year, rather than a couple less.

Foreign Minister Lavrov was clear that Russia remains committed to non proliferation and any Russian compromise proposals are within that context.

It?s the biggest tax hike for homeowners ever considered. Replacing the mortgage interest deduction would punish millions of homeowners, particularly those living in high-cost markets. The proposals would reduce home values and send a chill through the housing market.

It sometimes seems to me they won't be satisfied until they have seen proposals implemented that would ... wipe out large sections of agriculture in Europe,

It is time to start talking and to get down to real serious business on the proposals by the Contact Group,

I tried to come in with an open mind. I thought it was only right to listen to all the proposals and make a decision that was best for my state and my Federation. But right away these (BASS) people were belligerent and confrontational. They profess to be working for the future, but there isn't any trust. I don't see how we can go forward from here.

As we move forward in this process, we believe it is necessary to focus our attention on the three cities of Atlanta, Charlotte and Daytona Beach. Based upon the proposals that we have reviewed internally for the past several months, we believe these three cities provide us with the best opportunity to build and develop a world-class NASCAR Hall of Fame for our millions of loyal fans.

The nurses are innocent, and all proposals for paying compensation or any other form of recognizing guilt are unacceptable.

That practice will not stop under most of the proposals that are being floated before the committee,

There were proposals to develop the land, but none went forward, ... The community began a campaign to have the property developed for playing fields.

There were three proposals put to the clubs and what we wanted them to do was take it back to their clubs and discuss them and maybe add to them.

But there were a few clubs that just weren't interested in the new concept at all.

There's definitely a need to get the money on the ground fast. But I don't think any of these proposals would do that. What I see them doing is lessening the transparency. It's the opposite of the way we should be going. We need to know more so we can know if all this money is being spent in a wise and responsible manner.

There seems to be a lot of momentum related to May 1, and it makes sense to go this way. We have similar feelings about immigration-reform proposals that a number of our employees have.

We got the across-the-board cut and the kiddy credit, and those are the two most important things to sell to voters, ... But there are a number other proposals in the economic plan that will appeal to businesses as well.

It was one small step for President Bush, and one giant missed opportunity for America. The president's proposals focus primarily on research. His energy program won't help lower gas prices or slow the global warming that the president still does not admit is happening.

It's adequate to describe proposals generally, which is something that came from the Idaho Supreme Court's decision. But most districts include a catchall that gives some legal flexibility.

We have a draft of the proposals in hand which we're going through. A vote this week is possible, but there are still some areas where we don't have agreement.

We want to give a visual example of the project's intention, inspire other artists to submit proposals and get local merchants to sponsor those artists.

It makes a difficult job even harder, because there are holes we have to fill. Some of these proposals aren't new, but in an even tighter budget year, the problems are exacerbated.

However, the Turnpike Authority will certainly work with the administration and the Legislature on any proposals that may benefit the state.

For our part, the United States stands ready to return to the talks to discuss the proposals that have been on the table since June.
