America Quotes
I believe that we are better equipped than we were 10 or 20 years ago to cope with the difficulties we face in the world economy, and the reason we are better equipped in Britain, in the (European) area and in America is that people did take time in the last few years to put us on a better footing.

Affected Quotes
Based on what I heard him say yesterday, I'm highly encouraged for our area and specifically for the people in Picayune. I was able to speak with the president and tell him we are the first high spot not affected by flooding, though we did have a lot of wind damage and debris. I told him we had one of the best locations to begin the recovery process he had alluded to - getting industry and business back to work, ... As we all know, there would be more stability, hope and encouragement if could get this done.

Economy And Economics Quotes
Bay Area public services have not kept pace with demands of our economy and growing population. Freeways are jammed, commutes are longer, the power supply is vulnerable to a hot summer, and water systems could snap in a major earthquake. Well aware of this, business leaders can be optimistic that negotiations between the Governor and the Legislature on an infrastructure bond are focusing on what gets funded not if there's a need for funding.

Attract Quotes
Bay Area elected officials are weather-makers and must work to improve the business climate. It's a win-all-around opportunity. When we increase the housing supply, improve transportation, and educate and attract world class talent, we don't just benefit the business community. We benefit everyone in the region. The future success of the Bay Area rests on resolving these challenges.

Chris Quotes
Chris has been very helpful. We had a full day's training out in the race area on Tuesday and Wednesday. It's a tricky area so the more time we spend there, the more comfortable we will be on Saturday. There is a lot of current, which is not very well documented, and the race course is surrounded by land so conditions can be very shifty.

Basis Quotes
I have made it a practice since before I was elected to come into the station on a daily or nightly basis and I always check on the prisoners in the cell area to make sure everything's okay. I have not been able to do that because the powers that be are trying to restrict me from doing that. When things like this happen I have a major problem with that,

Almost Quotes
I can't imagine it wouldn't be more successful than last year. And with the Fair being centered around the Beach, it's possible for almost everyone to get involved. In order to get anywhere on campus you'll have to cross through the Fair. Additionally, it ties the entire area together, even places Mt. Vernon.

Against Quotes
I fought on the Ali-Bob Foster under card against Henry Clark. After the fights he was down in the bar or lounge area with a bunch of ladies. I came down and kinda stole part of his thunder. He jumped up and said I'm gonna box you and started yelling I'm gonna kick your butt. So that was the beginning of the end for Ali.

Apartment Quotes
Given that it's going to reach such an extended area and that it will be an unusually wet storm, damages are going to be a lot worse than $1 billion. So many homes, apartment buildings and shopping centers have been built in this part of the country that haven't been tested by a big storm. Now we're going to see just how good this construction has been.

Apple Quotes
From 1978 when I bought my Apple II, for the next four years I just threw myself into PCs, and did lots of things - I had a little consulting practice, I formed an Apple users group in the New England area which was, of course, the first one on the East Coast, and I started a tiny cottage software business doing a statistics and graphics package for the Apple II.

Activities Quotes
From what I understand ... in terms of his activities in the late 1990s, he really wasn't on the radar then. I might go visit my sister in the Bay Area and stay for a four-week visit and someone may see me regularly and make the assumption that I am living there, when, in fact, I am just visiting. All this would be speculation.

Afford Quotes
If a physician has higher costs than the revenue they bring in, it may be a blessing if they move their patients to our competitor. As an organization, we work very diligently at creating the best environment in our service area for our patients, our medical staff and our employees so when a physician moves his practice, it is at risk of reducing their patient load or the quality of care provided to the patient. We endeavor to work closely with our medical staff by providing data or resources necessary to develop positive outcomes for all. My personal desire is always to provide physicians with whatever product they need to practice but in return, we ask for their support in dealing with vendors in such a way that not only allows the physician a choice of product but also afford us a fair return on investment.

Add Quotes
I expect some slow improvement in the Dallas-Fort Worth area. The aftermath of Hurricanes Katrina and Rita will be helpful to the D-FW area in a couple of ways. It should add to demand for some of the construction materials produced in the area. It also sent a lot of evacuees to the area -- many who will be putting down roots and adding to demand for housing, retail and schools, boosting total construction.

We're asking the people of Connecticut, especially from Waterbury where we've made our home since 1812, to help Independence become independent again.
