Lower Quotations | Page 5

I currently serve as the chairman of the state's appropriations committee. I work with the state's $40-billion budget. This is a unique opportunity for Ellis and Hill counties to have the chairman of the appropriations committee representing them. I've strived to get a handle on illegal immigration and if re-elected I will find a solution to school funding and lower the property tax.

I came up to work out Ed with little expectations and came away convinced that he is an N.F.L. prospect at the tight end position. He is very quick, has outstanding hands and great lower body strength.

I am concerned a little bit about housing prices, because I think demand will continue to be strong, but the supply will be lower this year than last year.

I am going to try to lower the temperature if I can. We're just exploring ideas, particularly over the weekend when the legislature's not sitting.

I believe the worst of the decline in the 'old economy' stocks is over, ... and I think what we're seeing here is a consolidation phase, even though this consolidation phase is probably taking place at the lower end of the trading range. I don't believe that yesterday's decline in Nasdaq is the beginning of any major correction just yet. Now, that is not to say that we're not going to have a correction. Indeed, we are. But I just believe that there is sufficient money out there and sufficient demand for these tech stocks yet, and that is not going to disappear so quickly. What we saw yesterday was little profit-taking after a spectacular week.

I am running for SGA president because I'd like to see something different on this campus. We're a small school, and we should have lower tuition. I want to affect change on campus and work for unity between the different campus organizations.

Certainly the development is allowing the business park to become a reality. Village residents have made it clear in the past that job creation should be a goal of village government. So we feel this is an opportunity to pursue that and at the same time improve the value of the village of Biron, which will allow for lower taxes in the future.

Certainly sentiment towards gold now remains positive, with the market ignoring the further drift lower in the oil price and the recent strength in the dollar,

Capital is readily available, and private equity investors are looking for investment opportunities. By entering into joint ventures with investors, savvy developers can obtain capital at lower costs to acquire land, optimize the timing of lot acquisitions and shift some of the risk of funding necessary for roads, sewers, utility lines and other infrastructure needed for development.

Business and leisure fares overall are definitely higher than a year ago across the country. But Denver is bucking the trend in the lower direction in both cases.

BT's 2Q 05/06 results would appear at first glance to be bang in line with our below-consensus expectations. But slightly more-than-expected margin weakness and lower cash flow is unlikely to be taken well. Our sell rating is maintained.

Business Process Networks take the concept of software-as-a-service to a new level. By focusing on transaction-intensive processes, extending common business processes across multiple companies and leveraging shared connections, we are able to accelerate the adoption cycles and significantly lower operating costs.

Business is tough, now people are trying to travel but at much lower cost. (In total) business travel dropped by 12 percent from peak to trough,

But for that, prices must fall lower to become attractive for the funds.

But at the same time, we do believe it could be a little bit lower to better meet the needs of students.

But as interest rates start to go up the lower payments can help some people qualify especially in a high-cost state like California.

But against the backdrop of improvements in commodity prices, the fact the Canadian dollar has been rallying and the long end of the market had already priced it in, they thought, 'Listen, our rates should be below U.S. rates. Our inflation is lower and we're well behind in the economic cycle.'

Based on what we've heard and seen so far, the fashion apparel stores and department stores are going to be hit with lower profits.

Basically, we're hoping the rain and snowmelt will subside enough to get the middle and lower rivers back in shape so we don't have to fish those terminal areas any longer. Hopefully we'll have some wild fish to catch and release.

Basically, the Web presents travel vendors with an opportunity to sell their product at a lower cost. If they can sell it at a lower cost, they can also pass on those savings to the consumer.

Basically the top ten industries were those that are economically sensitive and are bouncing back from their deeply oversold condition last year as a result of lower interest rates. We do believe the Fed will remain aggressive with its easing interest rate policy but we feel the earnings are going to be pretty bad for the first quarter, so the market is likely to tread water for awhile.

Basically in the long run, charter school funding needs to be addressed because currently they are being funded at a lower amount than district schools.

Barnes & Noble has been doing its own publishing with its own imprint for a few years now, reprinting classics for lower prices. When they were interested in buying Ingram, it wasn't just their warehouses they were looking at, but also their Lightning Print program, which is publishing on demand.

China has a long way to go. The government has yet to bring Chinese refined product prices up to international levels. They are about 40 percent lower than the U.S..

I'm amazed no one really shot lower than 5 under in the morning. It was really there to shoot a low score today. We had perfect conditions.

I have been in the business for more than 40 years and I've always heard Florida is going to run out of rock. We continually find and are able to use lower grade phosphate, which even 20 years ago we would never have dreamed of using.

I have a blend of klotho gene variants that have been linked with a lower risk for coronary artery disease and stroke and an advantage in longevity.

I felt if I shot 66, that would be a really good number to post early because I'm two hours ahead of the leaders. I wish I could have shot a couple shots lower and posted that, but you never know.

I felt good. I just couldn't get things going. I couldn't line up my arm with my lower half and throw strikes.

I find myself wanting to make music at the dining room table or in the bedroom - I'm kind of a mobile writer, so I sort of move around the house. But the attic is definitely where I can make the most noise. While everyone on the lower floors screams 'Earthquake!' But no! It's just my bass!

I find it a little bit comical that Microsoft is going with the lower number, which I applaud, and yet the analysts still want to stick to the see no evil, hear no evil, speak no evil, higher pro forma number.

I feel my knees changing - like, why do I have this pain when I'm running on the treadmill? What's going on with my lower back when I wake up in the morning? I just feel changes. And I'm definitely fearful in a very vain manner about my body ageing.

If breaching were recommended at the end (of the public comment process associated with the Lower Snake River EIS), there would still have to be money appropriated to do it and it's a long process. You just don't go down there on a Sunday afternoon and knock these dams down,

If bond yields keep rising which I think they will, then not even stocks are safe from a welcome decline in energy prices. In this case lower energy prices could prove to be a Trojan horse unleashing a problematic rise in market rates.

I can't really go without being noticed. I'll keep my head a bit lower than usual. I've got to keep my head out of trouble, because if it goes on, it would be 'Harry Potter boy this, Harry Potter boy that.'

I can't see any particular catalyst for the market going lower because there is the prospect of economic recovery, and improving expectations for economic growth in due course should feed through to improving expectations for earnings and should stop undermining apparently bad valuations.

Growth is likely to be lower in '98 than it was in '97. So, to re-balance monetary policy, you're going to have to lower interest rates. The question is by how much? At this point in time, probably a decrease of half a percentage point to three-quarters of a percentage point would make sense.

Growth in specialty advertising was a little lower than expected but subscriber revenue growth outperformed expectations and overall specialty revenue growth for the first quarter was in line.

Growth in employment this year is likely to be substantially lower than over the past year. In that sort of environment, we forecast the central bank will leave interest rates unchanged for the rest of the year.

Growth in 2005 will be about 0.1 percentage points lower as a result of Katrina.

Given equal prices, most consumers would pick a vehicle from a manufacturer they trust first, although some still will be swayed by a lower price.

Give him time to grow into it. Maybe make a lower profile, lower key, more organic record.

Given the challenges Intel faces currently with its business model, we think the stock needs to trade on a lower multiple of 2003 earnings to be attractive.

Given that the dollar was unable to really bounce on the back of lower than expected trade deficit yesterday, it seems a bit unlikely that even if the retail sales show nice gains that (it) will be able to really benefit from such data.

Getting a facemask to protect the region he needs protected is awfully tough because you need your lower jaw to move (in order) to eat, to breathe. We're going to look into it further.

Get Lower understood the need for a sophisticated technology to meet the complexity of the marketplace in general and its multiple business channels specifically. Efficient Frontier can help Get Lower meet and exceed its business objectives.

Fragmentation means more and more shows get lower and lower ratings. Events like the Super Bowl are arguably the only places advertisers can reach everyone in the U.S. at one time.

Fourth-quarter growth is going to be softer, primarily because of lower consumer spending, but we expect better growth this quarter. A major part of it is the sharp drop in auto sales, and we wouldn't expect to see that again.

For subjective indicators of pain, obese people indicated similar levels of pain to non-obese people. But when we looked at objective indicators, we found that the obese group had a lower threshold for pain.

From a good lie in the middle of a fairway bunker, I'll make the same swing as I do from an average fairway lie. I'll dig my feet in slightly and keep my lower body stable so I won't slip, but I don't change my club selection or setup. It's only when the ball is sitting down in the sand that I'll make some modifications.

From a rates perspective, this release will provide a much needed tonic to those looking for lower UK rates.

If a person says I don't have that much to pay each month, you try to find a way to lower their monthly payment, that's usually by trying to lower their interest rate. The best way to do that is through adjustable rate mortgages.

If a square peg doesnt fit a round hole, neither the peg nor the hole is to blame. Between two people, the question "whose fault is it?" is the friend of argumentation and the destroyer of growth-oriented communication. Assigning blame involves listening to criticize and responding to defend, speaking to lower the other person rather than speaking to build each up. Relational progress is impossible as long as blame is the focus because blame and progress are enemies. In our litigation-hungry society we must take care that focusing on fault - which is proper for the courtroom - doesnt carry over into interpersonal relationships. The heart of loving communication is listening to understand.

If anecdotal sector estimates about a very poor Christmas shopping season prove correct, the Bank of England will have to pull the stops out again for lower rates.

I don't think we will put higher-ed out of business. I think we'll evolve it. More access, higher quality, lower costs, more global reach.

I expected our index to tick lower in March, as the effects from the Super Bowl and mild winter weather faded. Looking ahead, our index probably will settle into a lower range, as the local economy struggles to overcome restructuring in the auto sector, higher interest rates, and elevated gasoline prices.

I expect the sell-off in oil prices is a good thing for the stock market. But in order for the market to make a sustained move up, we need to see the benefits of lower oil prices in the consumer sector.

I expect the market to open lower following weakness in regional markets in early trade. The absence of any market-moving news will prevent companies from taking major positions in the market.

I examined the gate and saw droplets of blood on the lower portion ... that was about 7:15 that morning (June 13).

For most states in the region, unemployment rates moved lower and job growth higher as manufacturers, finance firms and energy providers details growth. However, telecommunications remained weak and construction cooled in January.

Given the stock's already poor performance, it would seem that any bad news would risk reducing investor interest and, thus, risk a lower stock price,

Given the spike in oil during the third quarter, I think we're going to see higher oil costs in manufacturing companies and lower sales in consumer companies from oil squeezing out other purchases.

Given the rise of chronic conditions and the rapid aging of the population, there has never been a more urgent need to improve quality and reduce costs through the optimal use of technology. I look forward to helping frame the discussion of how technology can help connect people and information in new and important ways that can enable better healthcare at lower cost.

Given the relatively low inventory levels, we expect an elevated likelihood of materially higher prices rather than a lower correction.

GM's new products are just not getting the job done and the company is losing market share, ... It's really a combination of three things going on. There's lower sales mixed with falling prices and higher input costs.

Global warming is real, it's happening now and President Bush has the legal authority to regulate the pollution that's causing it. He just doesn't want to. The Supreme Court must overturn the lower courts judicial activism and give this case a proper hearing.

Global procurement will be key to improving the customer experience around the world through better merchandise and lower prices.

Global economic uncertainties have slowed the growth we were previously expecting, causing us to lower our expectations for CDMA handset sales to approximately 80 million units in 2001 versus the 90 million units on which we had previously planned.

If we see to it that wages conform to the final productivity of social labor, we should see to it that trusts do not lower that standard.

If we see economic indicators continue to weaken at the pace they have weakened in the past month, then I'm wrong. We could not only see mortgage rates continue to soften, but hold at lower levels for quite a substantial period -- maybe the first half of next year. But I don't think that's likely to happen.

If we wish to preserve the diversity of natural ecosystem processes, we must preserve the larger ecosystems where the longest food chains are found, ... As ecosystem size decreases (e.g., through the fragmentation of forest patches), we may see the loss of large, often rare, top predators. Those top predators that can survive in smaller ecosystems will likely feed lower in the food chain, which may alter the feeding relations and community structure through out the food web.

If the transmitter is running at full power, we would expect the suit to have ended operations after a few days to a week. If it is transmitting at lower power, then it will operate much longer.

If the 'street' is required to own a large portion of this amount, it likes to have it on their terms, which usually results in higher yields and lower prices.

If we make the roadway higher it will be a dam. If we make it any lower the road will be washed out.

If the economy slows down, if housing moves back down, then at some point late in 2006 the Fed starts to lower rates. That's why a 10-year note yield at 4.55 percent is a decent value as opposed to overvalued.

If the economy roars back, you can always take the cuts back. But suppose you're wrong on the other side, and the economy continues to languish? With the slack already in the markets, inflation is likely to move lower still.

If the Dow were to close lower for the year, it would be a more psychological negative. The S&P is more important for the overall health of the economy, and we're eking out a small gain now, which for everything the market has endured, shouldn't be taken lightly.

If the core rate shows lower inflation than expected, it will give a hint that the Federal Reserve is close to the end of its rate hikes, and this would give equity markets a boost overall,

If the goal is to lower emissions, that's disconnected to most people. If the goal is to save taxpayers' money, now the public has some interest.

If the bargain is that you are going to get lower property taxes but higher sales taxes, that is no bargain at all for the folks making less than $100,000. They are going to end up with more of a tax burden than they had before.

If the ABM Treaty is maintained, Russia is ready for radical cuts with the United States of strategic offensive weapons to as low as 1,500 and even lower than this level,

If someone is addicted to chocolate, this may be a better choice than other chocolate bars. But to think that you are going to lower blood cholesterol levels, or chance of heart disease, by eating two of these a day - that is just wishful thinking.

If someone finds a lower price, we'll match it.

He was a tall man with an astonishing and somehow elegant curvature of the spine, formed by an enlarged lower abdomen, which he carried in a stately and contented way, as if it contained money and securities.

He's got to take some tough medicine. He's just 10 years from retirement and starting at ground zero and he needs to live within a lower income.

He was doing a lot of conditioning on the lower half of his body over the winter. He was in real good shape. Then he woke up one morning and found his knee was swollen.

He woke up this morning complaining of lower intestinal problems and was taken by ambulance to the Desert Regional Medical Center in Palm Springs for emergency medical attention.

He talks about lending a helping hand to the poor and disadvantaged. But these policies push the other way, toward lower wages and less racial inclusion.

He had cramping all over his body that started in his calves and lower back. For whatever reason, it manifested itself more as a neck strain.

He has to go. Nothing, I think, less will suffice, ... It's not enough just for Secretary Rumsfeld to say that some people in the lower ranks are responsible for this -- this goes all the way up.

He has produced, albeit at a lower level, but we think he can make the transition and make it very quickly.

He fired the shots across the bow of Congress, and he has gotten the lower courts to pay attention to these things.

Henry Melton made some really good, physical runs today and has a couple of other days as well. It will be a hard decision to see how much he plays defense compared to offense because we liked the way he looked (on offense). He's in better shape. He's running with lower pads. He made a couple of really key runs today.

helped to lower risk premiums on debt and have contributed importantly to the favorable investment environment.

We can lower costs if we invest heavily in mitigation in this state and that's really the most important thing.

We can look at an adjustable rate mortgage if they're going to be in a home a shorter length of time, whether it be three to five years, ... The advantage is you can get a lower interest rate.
