We added Medicare Part D to a system facing bankruptcy and gave no thought to means testing it.

Once the races begin it's more difficult and there is never that much time for testing.

The cost of research, development and testing of a new drug is vastly greater than the cost of each dose produced. How should we pay for new medicines? Innovators should be rewarded according to the impact of their medicine, and people should contribute to these rewards according to their ability to pay.

In just six weeks from the time the design was started, we had the motor on the block testing its power.

Common Core reminds us what testing can do right. Modeled on standards of the world's education superpowers, questions demand critical thinking and creativity. Students are asked to write at length, show their work, and explain their reasoning.

More running on Friday would definitely have helped. We only used one specification of tyre on Friday, thinking we would do the job (of testing the other specification) when the track would have been less green on Saturday. Unfortunately, we couldn't do it. You always learn.

One of the features of our annual meeting is that all the members gather in person to have face-to-face discussions about such subjects as breeding policies, canine health issues and testing programs. For example, we have discussed the prospects of including the North American Versatile Hunting Dog Association's 'utility test' to go along with the 'natural ability' test we already now use in qualifying our dogs for our club's breeding program. Likewise, there have been some useful debates on how to sanction any breeders who have dogs with serious genetic defects.

One of the biggest barriers research and academic institutions face is the ability to get discoveries made in the lab into clinical testing. The new Exploratory IND guidance emphasizes the flexibility available to researchers when conducting early clinical testing of these cutting-edge treatments. As we enter the era of personalized medicine, these exploratory approaches enable scientists to take full advantage of new technologies to target the development of more individualized therapies.

only when no other reasonable alternative testing methodology exists.

I was testing the Nav One recently in Kentucky, and was finding restaurants in the middle of nowhere.

I would have liked to run a lot more laps today to continue with the good set-up direction we found yesterday, so it's disappointing that the wind was so strong.

I'm feeling totally at home on the FP1 and around this circuit and have just really enjoyed testing these last four days.

More often than not, a patch will actually do more damage than good if you roll it out too quickly without testing it first.

Of course fixing this vibration is now our main focus and today we worked a lot with the entire team to try to find the right way forward.

We've already done many days testing with this new bike and mostly it's going very well, now we have two more days here to continue with our improvement.

Obviously, 15-year-olds seeking learner permits account for a large number of the people who come to the (driver's license) stations each day.

If this observation is confirmed, I can see a scenario where a physician does genetic testing and says 'Mrs. Jones, you have (this genetic variation) and you don't drink much. Maybe we ought to increase your consumption,

I don't know what happened. I reached down to look at my oil temperature, and when I looked back up everyone was dead stopped. The only silver lining is that our backup car should be as good as our primary. We came down here testing last month and had a tough time deciding which car to bring back, so that's a good sign for Sunday.

There are many different pieces of this giant puzzle that need to come together. The pieces that must come together include installation of ticket terminals, training retailers, testing software applications and so much more. There are many people working very hard behind the scenes in such areas as administration, finance, sales and computers to help raise money for education and make this historical event happen. In addition, numerous state agencies are providing assistance to us, as necessary.

So far, the testing is going very well. The performance has been good, and fuel mileage has been comparable to the 2002 engines.

Sen. Rita Days and I were committed to maintaining a safe and friendly emissions program even though the effort was to decentralize it.

Our six amendments protect the public and make the often inconvenient process of emissions testing as painless as possible.

We won't have a very strong inventory situation, certainly not enough to keep markets from testing higher.

We've never been big fans of beta testing at 1010 WINS. However, when the Associated Press invited us to participate in their new Online Video Network, we jumped at the chance to feature topical news video on our site. The integration was a snap and their production is top-notch. We're looking forward to prominently placing APOVN content on the new 1010wins.com.

We've never had an event of this magnitude happen before. We're taking a look at development and testing procedures around virus signatures to prevent it from happening again.

When the results of the testing are known, we will be in a much better position to take the next course of action. We have to work through some unique issues in this case, but we know enough about the victim, her circumstances, and the people with whom she was associated.

If, and only if, our further testing and analysis supports flying without a PAL ramp is aerodynamically alright to do, as our preliminary analysis indicates it would be, then the May launch window is still possible to make. If our new testing and analysis indicates we need the PAL ramp, we'll stop our shuttle processing, reassess and work the issue from there.

I believe with modern equipment and modern players, we cannot make a good course more difficult or more testing for the expert simply by adding length. The only way to stir them up is by the introduction of subtleties around the greens.

The point of final assembly and testing for each mission will be critical to the viability of NASA's CEV program and the ideal location to do that is here in Florida adjacent to the launch site. Florida has an extremely talented existing workforce with the skills, experience, dedication and track record to meet the challenges and requirements of NASA's human spaceflight program. They also have facilities that can support the highly specialized work that the new Crew Exploration Vehicle will require. And co-location here in Florida with NASA's launch operations offers the greatest value at an overall affordable cost that is essential to the long-term success, safety, reliability and sustainability of NASA's CEV program.
