Appear Quotes
The only clear picture we have from the job cut numbers this year is that employers appear to be confused about the direction this economy is taking, ... Companies are experiencing increased business, but they are also seeing their costs soar due to higher fuel prices, inflation in supplier prices and a weaker dollar, which makes it more expensive to buy foreign parts.

Bars Quotes
Using yield management, you don't have to raise fares to raise revenues, you just make people buy the more expensive fare class. Now we'd have a better chance of playing with the gold bars at Fort Knox than finding out if or how Delta is doing this. ... It's hard in this case to say whether Delta is doing this or raising fares outright.
-
Aircraft Quotes
We feel that we're in a good position, that this will make us a stronger airline, ... We'll be able to clean up our financial status with regard to balance sheets and aircraft that are too expensive to fly, and emerge as a stronger, more viable competitor on the East Coast, where most of our flights are operating.

Asked Quotes
When you're upgrading a technology that involves an organization's payroll, there's a great deal of parallel testing that needs to be done. The dirty little secret in the EIM market is that on-premise solutions have been and continue to be very expensive to purchase and implement. That's because of the complexities that surround sales compensation plans. These tools are being asked to operate in extremely complex environments.

Automatic Quotes
We've seen quite a bit of that 'richening,' even with low (priced) cars. If you look at vehicles now, it's not unusual for small cars to have stackable CD changers or satellite. It's quite a change from old beer-can-on-wheels day when the least expensive cars had no options -- no air, not even an automatic transmission.

Boy Quotes
When I was 11 or 12 - a young boy in Japan - one of my older brothers took me to a sushi restaurant. I had never been to one, and it was very memorable. Back then, sushi was expensive and hard to come by, not like today, when there's a sushi restaurant on every street corner and you can buy it in supermarkets.

Bad Quotes
There are two stories to the origin. The first one involves a bunch of guys who got together for a horse race in England during the 1800s. The weather was bad and they did not want to risk hurting their expensive horses, so they ran the race themselves. The second was a (horse) race where there was so much fog no one could see. They ran from church steeple to church steeple in each town. Supposedly that's how it got its name. Either way, the event came from people running from town-to-town and jumping over fences, creeks and whatever else was in the way.

Adding Quotes
When you're adding those extra 5,000 seats, you have to build more ramps, more bathrooms, more plumbing, and it gets very expensive to build those extra seats. The number of times you sell the last 4,000 to 5,000 seats and the fact that they're going to be the less expensive seats, does not offset the cost of operating a larger facility.

Appearance Quotes
Since employees start over at step one when they are promoted, going from firefighter to lieutenant results in a loss of about $1.50 per hour, and lieutenant to captain results in a loss of about 50 cents per hour. But other departments have the same problem, specifically in the Police Department and the Water and the Community Appearance departments. In the Water and Sewer Board, you have many different levels of work, which makes it more likely that you will have promotion problems. That?s why it gets very expensive to fix all of the departments of the city at the same time. The cost depends on the size of the department.

Backup Quotes
Mission-critical data that goes missing could result in legal liabilities and regulatory compliance violations -- an intolerable situation. One would expect that security-conscious organizations would include tape encryption as a standard security defense. Unfortunately, this hypothesis simply isn't true. In a survey of 388 storage professionals, ESG found that only 7 percent of users reported that they always encrypt their backup data while 60 percent said that they never do. There will likely be many more instances of lost tapes, which may lead to embarrassing public disclosures and expensive notification efforts.

Along Quotes
Motorists should enjoy it while they can. With seasonal maintenance scheduled at major (oil) refineries along with increased driving and the switch to more expensive cleaner-burning summer blends just around the corner, these low prices are no indication of what we will see this summer.

Beef Quotes
Nobody loves the Boston Marathon as much as the people who make fun of it year after year. This was the race that previously offered as a prize a not particularly expensive medal, a laurel wreath, and a bowl of beef stew. This was the race that, on one memorable occasion, nobody knew who actually won.
-
Aesthetic Quotes
On the other hand, landowners need to be realistic when it comes to their expectations of what resources and how long it takes to reach their objectives, whether it's a crop of trees or an aesthetic view, ... Unreasonable expectation by the landowner can also result in expensive lessons.

Billions Quotes
IBM Â ( IBM : Research , Estimates ) is another company which I think is one of great Internet plays in the next three or four years, and one of the differences between IBM and others is they're earning billions of dollars. So I think IBM can be bought. I don't think it's expensive here.
