Appliances Quotes
Energy, health care and education are just three examples of areas in which information and information management are critically important. How are we using our energy? What appliances in homes or business are consuming the most energy? When do they consume it? Can the load be shifted? How efficient are these devices?

Advantages Quotes
Humans are distinguished from other species by a massive brain that enables us to imagine a future and influence it by what we do in the present. By using experience, knowledge and insight, our ancestors recognized they could anticipate dangers and opportunities and take steps to exploit advantages and avoid hazards.

Against Quotes
It's so easy to use tired, shopworn figures of speech. I love using long, fancy words but have learned - mostly from writing my biography of Winston Churchill - that short, strong words work better. I am ever-vigilant against the passive and against jargon, both of which are so insidious.

Ambient Quotes
When I first started making ambient music, I was setting up systems using synthesizers that generated pulses more or less randomly. The end result is a kind of music that continuously changes. Of course, until computers came along, all I could actually present of that work was a piece of its output.

Avoid Quotes
The only thing that I travel with is an Ole Henriksen facial cleanser, something that my skin is used to avoid using different soaps at different hotels all the time, and Givenchy Man Pro-Energizing Massive Moisturizer. I usually keep my hair pretty short, too, so I don't require a lot of stuff.

Associated Quotes
Using the word 'bossy' for girls can be quite harmful. What is that saying - that being focused, being assertive, being the boss has a negative attribute? And I have heard that term associated more with women than with men. 'He's so bossy' - you don't hear that. It's a very subtle thing.

Bases Quotes
I would have thought that if you're going to try to punish the Syrians and prevent them from using chemical weapons again, the thing to do is a one-time strike. Maybe a cruise missile strike at one or two of their air bases just so they know what they're going to gain from using chemical weapons on the battlefield.

Bass Quotes
I was at Lake Poway, and I was 7 years old, ... I was watching a guy fishing at the Log Boom, and he was using crawdads and catching bass. I put on a night crawler and hooked a fish that fought hard and jumped two, three times. It was a bass, and that did it for me. I've been a bass fisherman ever since.

Allowed Quotes
I was fired from two agencies, and the first time, they padlocked my office, my assistant was crying and they were literally trying to take my Rolodex out of my hands -- which I later learned you are legally allowed to take -- as I was escorted from the building. The best thing was that they forgot to turn off my company car phone. And back then -- this was in 1989 -- your car phone bill could run $800 a month. I wound up using it for four more months.

Blessed Quotes
My ultimate career goal is to just try to find a niche where I can make a living at making people happy, and using the talents I have been blessed with. What good is making a ton of money if you can't have any fun in life? I am so lucky to be able to be one of the clowns who help people find joy in their life.

Current Quotes
On the planet, over 90 percent of the population 45 years and older have difficulty reading, but their distance vision is OK. The current bifocal lenses are divided ... so when people are driving they are not using the bifocal lens. Our lens, with the focusing power, allows them to use the whole lens for different vision tasks at the same time.

Abuse Quotes
On the eve of this five-day hearing, it is important to go back to basics. This case involves a clear abuse of market power by a super-dominant company using its monopoly power in one market -- PC client operating systems -- to foreclose competition on the merits in two others -- media streaming applications and work group servers.

Classmates Quotes
I was the first in my family to go to college, and I waitressed all the way through, using my earnings to pay for a bachelor's degree first and then a master's. I resented classmates who didn't have to work real jobs, the ones who had the luxury of taking unpaid internships that would eventually position them for high-paying careers.

Across Quotes
I was surfing the Internet, and I came across a school in Atlanta where you could learn how to climb trees with ropes the way the pros do. It sounded terrific, and so I went down there, and I began to learn these kind of rarified techniques for how you get up and down trees while using special ropes and gear.

Course Quotes
No. 1, he's that height and if he gets down lower that's less target space to hit on, ... It forces you to stay in that uncomfortable 90-degree squat stance while shuffling, while using your hands. Through the course of the game it wears on you and you start to get higher and higher by the end. At that point, he's able to run under guys or get good enough technique that he can get under their pads and push them backward.

Continue Quotes
Some misleading reports have incorrectly characterized EPA's repeal of the two percent oxygen requirement of the reformulated gasoline program as a move away from ethanol, when in reality the opposite is true -- the demand for ethanol will continue its steady increase. Using ethanol in reformulated gasoline was extraordinarily successful in helping reduce harmful tailpipe emissions around the United States.

Ability Quotes
Some companies would rather not implement a system until they have their entire records management strategy identified, so they can apply different retention periods to different things, like a message from finance vs. a lunch invitation. Very few companies are prepared to roll out an enterprise-wide message categorization and retention program. Most companies realize that using an archive system doesn't lock them into anything, but it does give them the ability to see what they have.

Attract Quotes
More than nine years into our longest economic expansion on record, more employers are now using health insurance coverage to attract and keep workers, and are absorbing rising costs rather than passing them on to their employees. But this may change if the economy cools down, and the bigger challenge that still remains is how to help the 44 million Americans who are uninsured despite the robust economy.

Alarm Quotes
No one likes to come home to a dark house or worry about security while away. With our technology homebuyers can opt to turn on lights when using a remote control to open garage doors or be called on their cell phone if an alarm or water sensor is tripped. A working parent also could confirm a child's arrival home from school by monitoring the security code access, and if security cameras are part of the program images and/or video could be viewed over the web. Many automated features save energy, helping the system pay for itself over time. Others improve safety, like fire, carbon monoxide and low temperature sensors.

Online auction sites are an excellent way for people from around the world to buy and sell goods. We strongly believe in the convenience and global reach of the virtual marketplace. Unfortunately, a number of online sellers are undermining trust in the system by using the Internet to hawk illegal products to unsuspecting consumers.
