The advantage of the tower gun, other than the superb snowmaking, is it allows us to place them in stationery positions around the mountain. This allows our snowmakers to focus on other key areas on the hill using the ground guns and fan guns.

The advantage to this handheld device is that it's much cheaper than using a cell. So, for example, an enterprise could opt to give its employees an F1000 as a cheaper alternative to the office phone.

The advantage we have is, away from the city, we're talking to real people. We talk to farmers about hedging and forward contracts concerning oil and currencies and that reminds us that there are real people using the markets. In London, you don't see your neighbors for dust.

The ability to capture data without having to handle a scanner gives an enormous boost to our customer's workforce efficiency and productivity. Using a hands-free scanner such as Socket's Cordless Ring Scanner will enable our customers to communicate data that is more accurate than the traditional methods of hand written or voice confirmations.

The 500 makes veterans nervous. It's a matter of bottling up those nerves and using it for you, not against you. It's a long month. You have to settle on a good pace and not come on too strong, early in the month.

Where we want to be is at the edge of where the customer is. We're not looking to introduce things that don't have an immediate practical value. We're looking at those things that we know our customers are doing today, and through using technology as an enabler, how do we make that experience better.

(Willis) was a little smaller and had a lot of movement. I was throwing jabs and using some body shots to slow him down. After each round, I got a little more confident and pushed the pace.

You can best teach character on the playing field, using sports to teach life lessons,

Microsoft has had a tendency to group home and business together, because many of those customers will be using the same features anyway. So, whenever there's a new release, there tends to be uncertainty over whether it's for consumers or enterprises.

Most cities and towns are now using these and we're trying to offer the best product for everyone.

Most jeans are built straight up and down. But theyre using Japanese and Italian denims that are so much softer and wear a lot longer.

Most of our guys fix cars and build houses. We're not like NFL Europe that's using the continent as a farm system for American players. We're trying to grow the game here.

You can do a lot to protect yourself by using hand hygiene, cough etiquette and staying home if you have a fever.

You can have a policy, but there can be a culture against using it. The culture is where the rubber meets the road. It's actually what happens to people, regardless of what the policies are.

You just pull back for hundreds of miles using the satellite imagery, and all of a sudden this invisible world become visible. You're actually able to see settlements and tombs - and even things like buried pyramids - that you might not otherwise be able to see.

You kind of alluded to it in your introduction. I mean, for the last 300 or so years, the exact sciences have been dominated by what is really a good idea, which is the idea that one can describe the natural world using mathematical equations.

You'll see people doing short films and people doing features specifically for the Net, as opposed to people using it as a stepping-stone.

You can do different styles from the same grapes by using different winemaking techniques. The style depends on the location -- we couldn't make chardonnay like (those in) the Russian River Valley.

That's what I've been always saying, that I was always using the mixed doubles especially to improve my net game and being able to return a guy's serve, 'cause then when you play someone like Serena, you are little bit more prepared for that.

We haven't utilized it yet, because we just don't have the personnel right now. We play our six most talented people. Most of the elite teams are using them, because it gives a smaller player who has good defensive skills an opportunity to play the back row more often than just three rotations.

We have officially realized one of the very first applications of the new digital technology, and more importantly, are using it to deliver truly innovative content to consumers starved for intelligent programming.

Understanding and using technology are critical components of all students' academic careers and, most certainly, barometers of their future employment prospects. Given the president's emphasis in the State of the Union on the importance of developing math and science skills in America's students in order to keep America competitive globally, we do not see how eliminating federal education technology funding advances his global competitiveness agenda or helps our students.

Unlike most viruses, which have some financial objective, such as stealing Internet-banking passwords or using the victim's PC to send spam, this worm is purely malicious. It is as if its creators just want people to sit up and take notice of them.

We need to stop thinking of the environment as a passive element. It is a fundamental part of community-based decision making. Unfortunately, the poor often lack legal rights to ecosystems and are excluded from decisions about ecosystem management. Without addressing these failures through changes in governance, there is little chance of using the economic potential of ecosystems to reduce rural poverty.

When I first got here (to UT), my release was ugly. I think using the chair is one reason my free-throw percentage is getting better. I have better mechanics.

We got off to a good start. We're all about being intense, getting up and down the floor, using our athleticism and our speed.

We are not using inferior pavement. It's sort of like using oak instead of mahogany, you still are going to have a good quality project.

We are now at the point where there is a clear coalescing around the 2.3 to 2.5 GHz, 3.5 GHz and 5 GHz bands. It looks likely that the planet is going to be able to be covered using those frequency bands.

We haven't had a huge issue with it here, but we were shocked at how many kids were using the site.

We have not done a great job of using 53 yards, the width of the field. I think what we've done is kind of squeezed it down because that's how we beat Tennessee play great defense, play great field position.

We know the U.S. has pressures -- employment issues and elections and the credibility of the government. For China, we could also say that the current state is not only good for China but also for the rest of the world and also good for the U.S. because we are using our foreign exchange reserves to buy U.S. Treasury bonds and subsidize U.S. consumers.

We know this is an absolutely critical period for children's development -- for their intellectual development, their social development, their physical development. But we need to make sure the media that they are using are not only not harming that development, but are actually enhancing it.

We have attempted to contact Bobby, using every method we know of. He has simply disappeared. And, as far as we're concerned, he is no longer responsible for the land.

The problem isn't private transportation. The problem is that we have an old-fashioned 19th-century technology, the internal combustion engine using fossil fuels. Let's solve that problem -- maybe by creating small, fuel-efficient vehicles -- and stop talking about putting the city back into its 19th-century state to make mass transit work. Instead, let's see what people want to do, then see how the city can be built around them.

The problem is people keep speeding. We're really concerned about kids using that school crossing. We want to give our police officers the ability to enforce the speed limit.

Michael would open doors that other people find locked. I wouldn't be surprised if he encouraged Volkswagen - perhaps using their Audi brand - to come to Formula One.

Microsoft is pleased that customers using SMS 2003, including our recently announced SMS 2003 R2, can take advantage of the new capabilities delivered through Intel AMT and Intel's Professional Business Platform via the Intel-developed add-on software for SMS. This enables customers to better manage their environments and computing infrastructures by reducing many challenges they face today. Similarly, Microsoft is increasing its investments in the Microsoft System Center family of products to address resource optimization and virtual machine life-cycle management so customers can manage their physical and virtualized environments from one toolset.

Microsoft's IPTV software platform works; I've seen it and I'm impressed. But it's one thing to show the service using a single client and a single server at a trade show and quite another to deploy the service in a large, live network where lots can go wrong.

We are aware that last night at Abe and Jake's more than one fight broke out inside. All reports we have received are that a fight broke out on a crowded set of stairs that Rodrick Stewart was using to exit the premises. Rodrick was hit over the head with some form of blunt instrument while he was exiting. All reports we have received indicate Rodrick had no involvement in the altercation other than him being hit over the head while going up the stairs. He received four staples to the top of his head and is feeling fine today. Rodrick's being at Abe and Jake's did not violate team policies.

We are better off using e-mail. Probably the time change is a factor with all our international recruits.

When I think of Morricone, more than his using a specific instrument or a specific sound, it's his way of approaching music that sticks out.

We were able to get our new silicon modulator to control the transmission of laser light, while using 10× less power than normally needed for silicon modulators.

We don't see this as commercial versus open source. More people are using the two together.

We're always looking for new ways of using limited resources.

We realized Turkey was a great opportunity for using that process to have some influence.

We can't beat ourselves like that. We were a little too aggressive, and not using our heads always. That's something we can't do.

We continued to see improvement in the overall economy and particularly in the sectors we have been watching and investing in during the last few years. As we look to 2006, we'll be investing in Internet services companies that can build traction in the marketplace using less capital.

We'll definitely be using it in campaign literature.

We were using Stingsilvers. I had an idea there were a few grays around. I wasn't fishing any particular structure. I was fishing in 55 feet of water and watching the depth-finder. When I saw fish on the screen, I was pretty sure they were gray trout.

We were using this pitcher to get water to put into a mop bucket. It's a clean pitcher, it wasn't dirty. We grabbed it from right here, and we were pouring water, but she said that's improper use of the hand sink.

We hope drivers are aware that the California Highway Patrol and law enforcement agencies are likely to be using extra patrols to look for drinking drivers during holidays.

We hope that ultimately solar energy can be extensively used in the commercial sector as well as the private sector. Imagine solar cells installed in cars to absorb solar energy to replace the traditional use of diesel and gas. People will vie to park their cars on the top level of parking garages so their cars can be charged under sunlight. Using the same principle, cell phones can also be charged by solar energy. There are such a wide variety of applications.

We have to start using our heads more. An 0-2 pitch and we put it down the middle. When she first hit it, I thought it was out of here.

We published several papers explaining how these crystals produce X-rays and electron beams, and they're very efficient in doing this. So using low-energy X-rays or low-energy electron beams - by which I mean similar to the energies that are used currently in medical imaging rather than treatment - we can produce a really high dose of electrons that can penetrate a very thin layer of the skin. If such a device can produce high enough dose, then we can possibly use it for cancer treatment - and we're not far from this goal.

Widespread availability of broadband, an increase in retailers using multiple channel strategies, increased online tenure and the facilitation of disposable credit cards such as the one announced by Permanent TSB will lead to a significant rise in the number of online shoppers in Ireland,

We wanted to keep Jon in the game because you're taking two and three people with him. The last half of the season you can't do that. Using Jon as a decoy really helps.

You are going to get candid responses. A lot of people don't know they are using a pesticide -- like weed-and-feed products or Round-Up. I've heard people say they didn't think that is a pesticide.

We had to work out how the world was going to be divided up and, using props and costumes, we had to stage a ten minute play.

We've made significant progress in funding projects throughout the region. We will be using MEPI money to fund our contribution ... to these two funds, the Foundation for the Future and the Fund for the Future.

We've got some folks that have production budgets using numbers from 1999. That just wasn't information that was going to be helpful to us today.
