S. Hughes Men Quotations

We have a lot of community support for this wonderful event. Everybody wants to reward the men and women who are defending our country.

A lot of first-time homebuyers think they have to have a sizable down payment when that's not necessarily the case because the 100 percent product, and even the ones where closing costs are absorbed, are really prevalent nowadays,

He works on his (free throw) shooting every day. He works and works. When he was about to shoot it, he was like, 'I got it. I got it.' He knew the whole time he was going to knock it down. It's a huge moment for a senior to step up as he did. It's fantastic.

We're encouraged that many of these patients with SARS are improving, ... In spite of that, we know that this is a very severe illness.

We are committed to continued expense management and strategies to improve productivity in 2006. Execution in these two important areas should contribute to the achievement of our goal of improving operating margins by 50 to 150 basis points for the year.

This is indeed an historic moment in the life ? not only in the church of New Orleans but in the whole city, ... The structure which harbors the soul of our city has come back to life. ... Thanks be to God.

This is indeed a historic moment in the life of the church of New Orleans, indeed for the whole city of New Orleans, ... This structure which harbors the soul of the city has been brought back to life. Thanks be to God.

One of the main reasons our defense has played so consistently is our work on and improvement in our tackling. We haven't had the missed tackles that we've had in the past. That's something the defensive coaches emphasized in the spring and have continued to emphasize in practice now. By making sure we stress the fundamentals, and that's one of the things we do each week, that has paid off with how well our defense has tackled compared to previous teams.

On a very short-term basis, you got a little oversold last week, and on a technical level, this is a pretty good place to get a bounce. In the greater scheme of things, last week's movement was significant, in that it was a stronger wave of selling than we've seen in a while.

We don't see rates declining much further or a significant firming in the near future, partly because ample capital is flowing into the market after the 2005 hurricane season. At the same time, we are encouraged by the ongoing development of our internal sales culture and by our ability to complete and integrate acquisitions. We anticipate further improvement in both areas in 2006. We also anticipate that contingent commissions could decline this year due to loss experience for insurers in 2005.

I think it's very nice that she apologized, but in some ways the apology almost made the comment worse because she seems to have forgotten that being a mother is a real job, ... I think it's just unfortunate to try to disparage women who have made the choice of making their families a priority.

Execution-wise we had too many penalties offensively. We had too many mental errors offensively, turned the ball over too many times, and you can't do that against a good team.

Mill River beat up on us. They out-physicalled us and out-sized us and out-quicked us in just about every facet of the game. I think the majority of the boys are young men we had last year. They've got pretty good memories and that's one I know they wouldn't forget.

Three strong advertising associations, a leading email association and two consumer advocacy/online privacy organizations coming together is a rare and powerful coalition. The fact that we have come together so strongly is testament to the gravity of our concerns about this Act.

We are pleased with the results for the fourth quarter. We achieved record revenue and finished the year by signing an important patent licensing agreement with AMD for which payments will begin in 2006.

She works at it year around. She is a dedicated softball player, she lives and breathes it. Plus she has had tremendous support from her parents (Mike and Joanne).

These seasonal factors traditionally give markets a boost in January, ... But it's not a false rally. Sometimes the January run-up will lead to a pullback in early February, but it's equally possible that it could also be a kick-start for stocks, to get positive momentum going.

We've been in a relatively negative technology environment ever since the August rally ended, ... Today's drop is a follow-through on more bad news. Also, the developments on Iraq and deflationary concerns in the economy remain in the background.

We are excited to have Marion on our team. Adding a talented and experienced professional such as Marion to our already deep team not only increases our overall capabilities as an investment management firm, but allows us to continue to provide top results to our investors.

Two thousand five was a great year. Our investment in Hub's sales culture and the commitment of our people enabled us to post organic growth in the face of declining insurance rates. Our acquisition team continued to excel in identifying and closing attractive opportunities. In addition, we achieved our goal of increasing operating margins, recording a one-percentage-point improvement for the quarter and the year.

We have engaged an investment banking firm to help us assess strategic options for Turner South and a significant programming contributor to that network, the Atlanta Braves franchise, which may lead to the sale of one or both.

Yes, it is a priority of the White House, ... We are moving expeditiously to implement the law. We think all these items will increase the supply this winter. However, everyone is saying it won't be enough to wipe out the impact of the hurricanes and all that.

While Cisco can't comment specifically about competitor claims, what we can say is Cisco does offer an SSL VPN solution targeted at large-scale enterprises and service providers,

What you're doing is giving the government an interest-free loan.

He reminds me a lot of Jimmy Johns at Brookhaven. He's got a tremendous arm, but he's gonna hurt you with his legs more than anything. He's gonna make his plays, I just hope he don't make the big plays on us.

To maintain the integrity of the process and the confidentiality of interested parties, we are not commenting on individual discussions we have had concerning the Atlanta Braves. We will say that our initial assumption, that the franchise has significant marketplace value and that there is widespread interest in it as a possible acquisition, has been confirmed. We continue to have meaningful discussions with outside parties about a possible sale of the Braves.

Women owned businesses are contributing over $18 billion to the Canadian economy. There are now over 800,000 women-owned businesses in Canada.

At the end of the day, we're looking to find 22 or 23 guys who want a jersey, who want a spot on the team, ... So, whatever their skill sets are, whatever their physical attributes are, whatever they do to be effective hockey players, we recommend them to do that.

I have not spoken to Michelle. But she has been so gracious to me in comments in interviews. She has been a role model to everyone, including me. It was great that Michelle was given every opportunity to be on the Olympic team.

I feel I gained a lot of momentum for next season. My season started kind of slowly, but I'm really happy about making it to the Olympics. I've improved so much from last season, and I'm looking forward to improving even more.

Optimism remains, and the conditions supporting stock gains through the end of the year are still good. The economy continues to recover and the interest rate environment is still good, but I have to think that March could be a challenging month.

There are always best and worst case scenarios and we don't know at the moment just when he will be back.

It's really neat to look at the top-six times and see how fast the women are. It shows we have a lot of depth. Every year we just keep getting better and better. We wanted to go out in the first races of the year and show that our preparations are going well for the Olympics.

This drug could save the lives of 1,000 women a year. It is unfair and cruel for women like Ann Marie Rogers to know that it is money and their postcode that stands between them and this potentially life-saving treatment.

Our team executed very well in overcoming many of the challenges we faced entering the third quarter. With outstanding progress on patent license renewals and broader customer engagements, we have solid momentum for revenue growth as we finish out the year.

Our goal is to establish better relations with private and public schools in the state of Nevada, and hopefully recommend that the Clark County School District at least gives us some temporary time to address these problems before they consider withdrawing from our association.

Being a member of the volunteer fire department gives me an opportunity to serve the public and help people that are in need. I plan to increase my education to be a paramedic and would like to get hired as a professional firefighter in a department that is in the area (possibly as far away as Sacramento) because staying close to family is important to me. I don't believe you can ever learn enough or be the greatest at what you do - there is always room for improvement.

It's something that our U.S. government has said a number of times in the past. It's information that was used very widely after his attack on the Kurds. I believe it was close to 300,000, ... That's something I said every day in the course of the campaign. That's information that we talked about a great deal in America.

For our younger players, they experienced firsthand just how fast and furious the pace is on the AHL level, ... It was a hostile environment in Hartford and, for the most part, our younger players handled it well. That experience is invaluable. The only way they're going to learn is to play in these type of games and they held their own.

By the time you're 50, most people have something wrong, ... The vast majority of these retirements are documented and justified - by and large, they come with the nature of the work.

I was proud of our team's effort. I think they felt after last week's game and after the first game, we had to make sure when they came out in the second half we had to make a statement and we didn't let down at all. I was very pleased with both sides of the ball. Our offensive and defensive lines, I thought, dominated the game. I couldn't be prouder of our effort.

We don't think there will be any environmental degradation, ... It's basically going into areas where you've already got stuff happening, where you've got existing NEPA work that had been completed. We think in many cases this is just duplicative work.

We don't think that's happened at all. It's more of an equipment issue.

We've been saying from Day 1 that we didn't want to wait until next year. This is a tremendous homecoming victory.

I've got players with lumps as well but I'm not going to stand here and defend something I can't really pass comment on until I've seen the pictures and spoken to the boy.

It was a bad case of professional judgement.

We think this is wonderful to have this tremendous project here in Hartford and to have it at the site of the tournament.
