Steel Quotations | Page 3

The (second-quarter) guidance was not very strong, below first-quarter numbers, even though the second quarter is historically the strongest for steel companies, especially mini-mills.

These mid-day fights in broad daylight on State Street is a broad change from how gangs used to steel their difference, which tended to be more in back allies at night, in neighborhoods belonging to one gang or the other. Meeting together in the most visible, heavily traveled area of Santa Barbara is something we want to stop right now.

The steel business is a local business. We do believe in the U.S. economy and would like to have a strong, balanced presence here.

The steel facade was in 1975, so it's been up for 30 years, and behind it is the original concrete from the original construction from 1919 to 1924.

The steel industry has been very fragmented (in Europe)...and the automobile and packing industries have been exploiting that.

There are several factors weighing on the dollar, among them the weak retail sales data and the feeling that Alan Greenspan was backtracking from his recent optimism on the U.S. economy. Greenspan's mention of the U.S. current account deficit has focused market attention on the problems associated with a strong dollar policy, particularly given the recent imposition of tariffs on U.S. steel imports.

What's important for investors to realize about the Dow is it's not just steel stocks and industrial-related stocks. There are growth stocks. There are financial, entertainment and industrial stocks. So when one sector isn't doing well, another sector may be doing well. And that's exactly what's propelling the Dow.

It would be foolish to ignore those qualities. He's a born leader. he will lead from the front and add a bit of steel to the team.

The rises in forecasts for steel makers' first-half profit were as expected and positive. As domestic demand will continue to be strong, there is room for further increases in profit.

The risk is that China does not slow its steel production as much as we expect and if that is the case, the deficit will be higher.

You have to get yourself a good notary, have nerves of steel and infinite patience.

We're disappointed with the fact that port land is being sold. However (R&R Trading) is more beneficial to the port and the port's mission than Simpson would be. Importing steel is a better fit than a mill.

There is no space for steel prices to drop further.

There is no reason at all to believe either that she is a legal conservative or -- and more importantly -- that she has the spine and steel necessary to resist the pressures that constantly bend the American legal system toward the left.

We've had a soil contamination problem, and our steel bids came in pretty dramatically over what we thought the estimate was going to be. Between those two, we've exhausted a good part of our contingency fund.

After 40 years of not playing, I admit I'm totally in love with my guitar. It's a Froggy Bottom acoustic steel string guitar. All I have to do is hit a couple of clean chords and the endorphins are right there. It's like the top of my head has come off and stardust and magic have fallen in.

The old, buried station was just a simple structure in terms of construction, a steel tube with no windows. You may wonder what people would see outside in the Antarctic but, although it's bare and naked, looking outside can be comforting.

People ask us why we didn't just evacuate the park, but there were 70,000 people in there that night, surrounded by a steel fence, with tens of thousands of more people right outside. So there was no way to evacuate it quickly. Plus, we didn't know there was a bomb threat.

Profits at steel makers will continue to increase because demand is rising, while supplies remain tight.

Some spider silks are really strong, but not all of them are. The ones that are really strong can actually rival steel and approach the tensile strength of Kevlar. Thus far, the dragline silk seems to be the strongest.

Expect steel prices to go up by $30 or $35 (US) imminently.

Rubber for construction equipment tires, (Sheetrock) and some kinds of steel may also be harder to find or more expensive because of the storms.

Alcatraz is an unsafe place to actually make a movie in many ways because there are cliffs and rotting corroding steel pipes everywhere and old nails sticking up.

You've got your pads and your disks - the pads wear down. The semi-abrasive compound only lasts a certain amount of time until you're down to the steel plate.

Salem is lucky because we don't have any significant high rises. Low-rise buildings seem to fair better. We seem to have lots of single- and two-story buildings, which all fare well. Most of the structures in the city are framed with wood, which seem resistant in the event of an earthquake. Older, steel buildings tend to fall apart quicker. Wood is flexible. Salem would probably fare very well, other than the downtown area.

Right now the largest company we're working with is about $70 million in sales and 600 employees. I was contacted by LTV Steel a couple of years ago, when they were going down, and the program simply isn't large enough to be beneficial to those folks.

FedEx is a big drag today, Merck is down, steel is down, airlines are down, it's all weighing on the transports,

Five of the corporations in the steel industry elected to resist collective bargaining and undertook to destroy the steel workers' union.

There's no question that industries that are purchasing steel are benefiting. But unlike industries that are hurt, consumers will never organize.

There's going to be a 162-foot (tall) crane erected out there on a crane tower. That'll start all the heavy work for the structure. So, you'll start to see steel and all that put in place. We'll finally start to get above ground and pretty much go from there.

This should put some steel in their spine. Canadians overwhelmingly understand that musicians and other artists are harmed by illegal file-swapping and deserve better protection under the law.

This combination further diversifies Steel Dynamics' product offering, provides additional penetration of the joist, truss and girder markets and provides Steel Dynamics with its first foray into the processed raw materials arena.

This building has a steel roof, and Frances rattled it for 30 hours. You could hardly hear a thing. Imagine someone beating on pots and pans incessantly. It was nerve-wracking.

This corporation is truly an example of corporate partnership and we are truly thankful for their support over the years and if it were not for them some of our events may not have been produced or would not have been as successful were it not for Arkansas Steel Associates.

This deal . . . will mean a strong steel company in Hamilton and will mean a viable pension plan.

This deal ... will mean a strong steel company in Hamilton and will mean a viable pension plan.

This isn't like investing in a steel mill that would otherwise go out of business. That's not going to happen here. Is there risk? Yes, there's risk in any investment, but this would be voluntary. People will take it on with their eyes wide open.

This is one of Andrew Carnegie's original libraries. It opened in 1902. It has always been a library and by the 1980s, when the steel mills were shutting down, we were able to hang on by the skin of our teeth. From 1985 to the early 1990s, we were struggling to keep the doors open.

You're going to have a tough time picking up effects in month-to-month or even year-to-year movement of steel prices.

This is not trade based on comparative advantage. We are confronted with an economic crisis in the U.S. steel industry, stemming directly from the structural mismanagement by several governments of their economies. Neither the U.S. government, nor its steel industry, can afford to wait for the trade law process to take its course.

In looking at preserving Roanoke Electric Steel and growing Roanoke Electric Steel, we feel like we have the best fit we could ask for with Steel Dynamics.

After we drill it down, we'll use the drill steel to pound and attempt to get signals back if there is anyone underground in that area. After we signal for three times and if we don't get a response, we'll pull the drill steel out and drop a camera and microphone into the hole.

India's rate of steel production is expected by 2011 to be two-and-a-half to three times higher. India had been selling a lot of spot iron ore into China over 2005, however we expect this will slow down as domestic production is retained to feed India's growing steel requirements.

In India, because of the huge investments materialising in industry and infrastructure projects, the demand for steel has grown much faster than anticipated.

I like the studio because it's delicate; you're working for sound. I like the garage because chopping up lumps of steel is the exact opposite of delicate. The garage is a more dangerous place though. I've never almost been crushed by a guitar, but I can't say the same about one of my Corvettes.

I had to steel myself against this psychic devastation - to see your father on the street. It's hard enough to pick up somebody you don't know from the streets, and then to actually have other people pick your father up - it was psychically devastating.

I'm rather inclined to say this deplorable action by the United States' authorities to protect its steel industry may have something to do with the exchange rate of the dollar, as it is being experienced by the American steel industry.

I love it. They're hitting on all cylinders. We have a buy on the stock, and we feel the stock's worth in the mid-50s. It's a whole new ballgame in the steel industry, and the titanium industry.

In reference to prices, what matters are the laws of the market. If the junction of these two groups results in more productivity and efficiency, certainly steel production in the long term is going to grow and, with this, demand for iron ore.

If you apply the precedents of the steel seizure case, President Bush is at the 'low ebb' of power here.

I've had a terrible time with some of the members just getting them to think there was something out there besides the steel mill.

Six years ago, when this now- expired contract was signed, there were names like Bethlehem Steel and LTV and Inland and National and Acme, and these have all disappeared all disappeared for the very fact that they didn't recognize or couldn't adapt quickly enough to a changing world marketplace."

Sydney Melbourne promoted the advancement of steel applications through improvement in automobile production with steel. This award encourages engineers in our industry to reach beyond current standards to achieve steel technological advancements that benefit the automotive industry, the steel industry and the consumer. The research of Todd Link and Jeff Grimm is a timely contributor to our knowledge base as the demand for automotive safety increases.

Tatiana Alvarez, who also became a queen of the wheels of steel in L.A., has now sold her incredible cross-dressing, reverse 'Tootsie' story to Warner Bros. in Hollywood, and hotshot producers Mike Medavoy, Brian Medavoy and Erwin More have reunited to turn it into a movie.

The beauty of our project is that we are taking something historical, something that has an emotional attachment to the community, and giving it rebirth. The sense of neighborhood and community at the Bethlehem Steel site is a good thing. We intend to be good neighbors, and we intend to create economic rejuvenation.

Everybody saw the plus-stuff; we didn't pull off any kind of heist or anything, ... We took a chance on a guy who was coming off of surgery, who had a steel rod in his arm, and got lucky.

This is clearly just posturing, and a helping hand by the Chinese Government to the Chinese Steel Mills, who clearly have their backs against the wall to try and keep contract prices from rising in 2006.

This is just not something for someone who's going to be studying Shakespeare or playing the classics. Fencing has really helped me as an actor in improving my focus and balance. You hear actors talking about 'staying in the moment.' It's really to your benefit to stay in the moment when you've got someone with three feet of steel waving it in front of you.

Dad was a very gentle, sweet man. Mum was the matriarch and the patriarch of the family. She ran the roost with a steel fist, but at the same time there was respect and love for her.

The Nokia 8800 has clearly found an audience with individuals who appreciate quality materials and world-class design. The Nokia 8800 is as much an object of art and desire, as it is an advanced piece of technology. As the first mobile phone to be crafted of modern materials like stainless steel and mineral glass, the Nokia 8800 brings a new elegance to the art of personal communication.

The new skyline of the Valley is now emerging, with buildings currently going vertical and steel for the spectacular signage being erected,

The news on U.S. Steel has prompted some buying of steelmakers. You cannot completely rule out the possibility of takeovers of Japanese companies.

It sounds trite, but I saw it in their eyes. These are very patriotic people, and the fact that the ship has steel from the trade center is a source of great pride. They view it as something incredibly special. They're building it for the nation.

It sounds like a Danielle Steel novel -- it's full of prose, it's full of pretty language, it's full of heart-tugging memories.

The U.S. has done a great job improving productivity. We're making a lot more steel in Dearborn with fewer people. The unions have accepted much better work rules.

They are normal people who have been put where they are, and whose actions and feelings have been molded by their circumstances. There are gentlemen and boors; intelligent ones and stupid ones; talented ones and inefficient ones. . . .

In the past, it's kind of been a two-phase operation for them. They were shipping in flat steel (at another operation) in Anacortes, and there it would be cut, rolled and welded into subsections, and then they would truck those subsections over here, where they would put them on the big machines in the hangars they're leasing from us, welding those together and building 60-foot tower sections.

In the last two and a half years, since George Bush became president, our nation has hemorrhaged 2.5 million manufacturing jobs, ... Ten percent of our manufacturing jobs have disappeared. ... Good jobs in steel and auto and textiles.

Investors are also buying shares in firms with attractive dividend yields ... such as steel makers and gas and electric power companies.

Investors' expectations of steelmakers' earnings are high. Steel producers may lead the market this week.

Investors expect reports this week will show Japan's recovery from deflation and that's driving domestic demand-related stocks higher. The prospects for the steel industry are quite positive, supported by strong demand.

Canadian steel producers, regardless of their current competitiveness, are not immune to the forces driving consolidation around the globe.

Hick-hop is a combination of your traditional country instruments - the fiddle, banjo, the pedal steel guitar - and then I'm running off the mouth on top of all that, ... I just started doing it because I grew up singing to country music and rap and rock, and I combined all my favorite music together and came up with this.

High-profile industry disruptions such as steel or car plant closures attract much media and political attention.

Fear of failure and fear of the unknown are always defeated by faith. Having faith in yourself, in the process of change, and in the new direction that change sets will reveal your own inner core of steel.

Cheney's appearance is especially galling a week after this administration refused to back up its own International Trade Commission ruling that China is dumping steel pipe products into the U.S., threatening the jobs of thousands of American steelworkers.

Buyers walk out of homes that are not updated, ... They want walk-in closets. They will not buy a house if the bathrooms are not redone. And if you put stainless steel appliances in, that will stick in buyers' minds.

The first thing to remember: There's no substitute for cold steel. They do not like it up 'em, they DON'T LIKE IT UP 'EM

How could I share with you how I felt when two towers that I loved, two pieces of steel and glass and concrete fell down, when actually they took with them thousands of human lives? That is the actual tragedy. But those towers were almost human for me. I was in love with them, and that's why I married them with a tight rope.

They have to prove in their results that they can overcome the problems of oil and steel prices. The sentiment has been too optimistic. I don't see much potential.

I remember playing Charlie way back when he was at Steel Valley,

My skin has turned to porcelain, to ivory, to steel.

He drew the dagger and laid it on the table between them; a length of dragonbone and Valyrian steel, as sharp as the difference between right and wrong, between true and false, between life and death.

Little redcape," he snarled, "when next you bare steel on Shagga son of Dolf, I will chop off your manhood and roast it in the fire." "What, no goats?" Tyrion said, taking a bite of his cheese.

In my own house, I rigged up a laboratory and studied chemistry in the evenings, determined that there should be nothing in the manufacture of steel that I would not know.

Gradually my whole concept of time changed until I thought of a month as having twenty-five days of humanness and five others when I might just as well have been an animal in a steel trap.

A prison made of steel and stone I can endure, and have endured, but never could I survive being locked away in one with walls made of fear and ghost for guards.

Any time capacity drops below 80 percent in the steel industry, it has a drastic impact.
