Net Quotations | Page 2

Man, he's just magical sometimes. That first goal was unbelievable, a highlight-reel goal. Then he went to the net hard and potted two more. He's a goal scorer. He's going to do that for the rest of his career.

Like any good goalie, it becomes more difficult to make saves if you take his eyes away on screens and get to the net on second and third shots.

Let's say that a patient has a prescription for a liquid medication and it costs me a net of $50. So I get the cost of that plus that $1.50. When I reach into the drawer, I just spent that $1.50 for the cost of the bottle to put it in.

Lending practices have become so aggressive that many people are qualifying for mortgages above and beyond the old guidelines. I think the total house expense shouldn't exceed 28% of net income, and the mortgage plus other debt such as a student and car loan shouldn't be more than 36% of gross income.

Let's wait and see how this all turns out. I don't think we are quite ready to say what Net neutrality is.

Lower costs will give you higher net returns. I think cost is critically important.

Several of our customers have basically a net booking of close to zero this quarter,

Seasonally adjusted net mortgage lending fell back to around the recent trend in January and the level of approvals, in particular for equity withdrawal, held up well in what is traditionally a slow month.

Senior executives may find themselves facing decisions other pre-retirees don't need to consider. For instance, they may have a large portion of their net worth invested in employer stock and still feel strong ties to that employer. And for former executives who have a great deal of their net worth tied up in stock options, this can pose a dilemma: how can they balance their need to diversify with their desire to maintain involvement with the company and benefit from its future success?

Selling, general, and administrative expenses as a percent of net sales and operating revenues increased slightly to 11.4% in this year's third quarter from 11.3% in last year's quarter. As expected, the moderate rate of increase in unit comps was not sufficient to provide SG&A leverage. Having a larger percentage of our store base comprised of stores not yet at basic maturity and last year's lower-than-normal corporate bonuses were also contributing factors. At the end of this year's third quarter, 49% of our stores were less than four years old, compared with 40% at the end of last year's third quarter.

So I'm not sure I believe the big gains, and there's no way we'll create 27,000 net new jobs every month. It is a great start to the year, but the pace of improvement likely won't be sustained.

She's the net result of what people were thinking about when Title IX started, giving women the opportunity to compete equally.

She was very efficient at the net for us. We expect good things from her this year.

She was right there. That's something we always talk about: When somebody's serving well, sometimes the ball's going to come right over on the first contact and we've got to be ready. That time we were. Earlier in the match we had a couple of those that trickled over the net and we didn't play them.

She's a very aggressive player. She likes to come to the net and that puts a lot of pressure on her opponents.

On a net, net, net basis, if you look at all the increases this year and look at after the sale, ... fares are 8 percent higher than a year ago. So for all the hoopla and concern, the airlines are making more money than a year ago.

On a net basis, it is still quite positive.

Olli is doing everything for us. He's a big, physical guy, and he's getting to the net for us. He's playing with a lot of confidence.

Should Congress grant video providers the extraordinary regulatory relief represented by national broadband video franchises -- turning nearly 40 years of local control of video services on its head -- Congress must also ensure net neutrality. Such a policy would ensure that those same companies make their broadband networks available to all applications, content and service providers on a nondiscriminatory basis.

Simply put, Canada's balance of payments remains exceptionally strong. It is very tough to make the case that the Canadian dollar is wildly overvalued when the country continues to chalk up solid current account surpluses and net inflows in foreign direct investment.

Sheldon (Souray) shot it at the net and Saku (Koivu) had a shot at it and (Alex) Kovalev had a shot, and I suddenly found myself with an open net,

Most of the time, we have bake sales and garage sales to raise funds. Most of the time, our fund-raisers net us $3,000 to $5,000, so to get $225,000 is huge.

Molson Coors' third-quarter results were driven primarily by a very favorable effective tax rate of 6.4 percent. Consolidated volume was basically flat and net sales were up 0.3 percent.

Mr. Oken may have lost some credibility with analysts when the bank's net interest margin dropped dramatically,

McLaren goes to the net and gets tackled and if that's not interference and this little thing is interference? Give me a break.

McDonald's crossed the $20 billion mark for the first time in global sales and also did it while translating 12.7 percent of that into net income, which is very admirable for a restaurant company.

My legislation provides that Net Neutrality rules would have 'no force or effect' and prohibits similar rules from being published or re-issued.

Net wealth hardly grew despite a substantial rise in house values.

Nets are generally defined as devices for capturing something. In a more narrow but more important sense, we might define a net as anything that entices or prevents us from following the call of Jesus Christ, the Son of the living God.

Net revenues for the year are up on earlier budget predictions by more than 2 million.

Net Neutrality originally referred to management of the 'last mile' of the network over which data flows into a person's home, but the debate has grown beyond that in recent years.

Net neutrality is a concept that the tech industry rallies around, but it is hypocrisy.

Net interest margins in Hong Kong remain under pressure and Standard Chartered Bank's performance here in 2005 would likely not be as strong as in China and elsewhere in the Asia-Pacific where it has expanded aggressively.

Net interest margin and Net interest income were stronger than expected, as BAC kept a tight lid on deposit pricing, shrank the securities portfolio and delivered strong loan growth. This should help reduce investor concerns on the bank's ability to manage through the flat yield curve.

Net income for the first three quarters of 2005 is nearly equal to all of 2004,

Net flows were much better than anyone expected and the outlook of flows continues to be good.

Net exports are unlikely to add much to growth this year with rising oil prices and competition from China seen putting upward pressure on the trade deficit.

One side of the American psyche wants smaller government, lower taxes, and more choices for individuals, even if those choices increase risk. The other wants a strong social safety net to protect the weakest among us, even if it costs more to minimize risk.

One of the areas that I'm most concerned about is the fact that there remains an insufficient safety net for children with health care needs in this system. Two years after the Jackson children were identified as having starved over a 13-year period, it remains possible today that there are children in the child protection system whose imminent medical needs are not being addressed.

One of my assets is my fitness. My fitness around the net and my movement: that's my defense to the power.

Obviously, we're not some of the teams in the past. We don't have as much depth as we had in the past, scoring wise. We did play bad a few games, and with Patrick (Roy) in net and (Peter) Forsberg and all the tools we had offensively, we could still win the game.

Of course, the implication is that there is something amiss, but I think that issue is far from settled. In fact, I believe that this government effort is a fishing expedition that unnecessarily disrupts the normal business operations of resellers and the manufacturers that supply them. If the government thought something was really wrong, they wouldn't have cast such a wide net to go hunting. I think this is a classic example of prosecutorial overreach.

One thing that tended to surprise a lot of people this year is that the market was going up on the back of very little net foreign inflow.

One thing you find out when you net a lake this size is there's a lot of variability. One net will be loaded with fish, and another will have hardly any. You try to reduce the variability with a larger sample size.

My concern is a single concern - can we keep a safety net under patients so they don't end up in a health crisis just because they cannot get medicine or care? I don't think the system is meeting the needs of the uninsured right now. It's overwhelmed.

More and more these days I find myself pondering how to reconcile my net income with my gross habits.

My ground strokes are my strength. I rely on them to produce some winners and some errors by the other player. I like coming into the net since I'm taller. But I have to work on my volleys.

My family and I have been blessed with good fortune in the world of business. We've created quite a net worth. My children, two boys, have more money than they will ever need, and they aren't empire builders.

Now we can say we have a safety net extending from Fort Kent to Sanford.

New models are being introduced at higher price points, but the competitiveness of the market is dramatically pushing down net prices.

Obviously there is leeway within the rules and it's up to the officials' judgment, but the key areas are in front of the net and in the corners.

Right now, I would never invest in a business model that depended on protection from Net neutrality.

Right now, every time he plays, it's like a challenge. He was well rested, he was ready and he needed to be because his counterpart in the other net was also sharp.

Revenues and net income for the quarter were negatively impacted primarily by lower motor home deliveries as a result of lower consumer confidence, which in our opinion is due mainly to the increase in fuel prices.

Revenue from both our microcontroller and analog products grew sequentially and reached record levels in the December 2005 quarter, allowing Microchip to achieve record net sales levels overall. Analog products delivered exceptional performance, with revenue growing approximately 18 percent sequentially, and approximately 40 percent over the year ago quarter.

Revenue and net income trends remain below our expectations.

Revenue and net income exceeded our preliminary views principally due to a record volume of steel shipments. Our mills were able to take advantage of the continuing strong market demand for flat-rolled steel and wide-flange beams, increasing production rates and enjoying record shipping volumes.

Rich is our offensive leader. He handles the ball behind the net for us and looks for the open man.

People who've had the propensity to run up consumer debt often don't admit it's a problem. But your net worth -- the difference between your assets and liabilities -- is a key measure of your financial health. If it's getting worse over time, that's a problem.

Phil gives us size and experience back on the blue line, ... He's not afraid to mix it up, and can use his size to his advantage both in front of the net and in the corners.

Nic is ironclad when it comes to defense, it is really hard to get points against him. He has also improved his offensive thrust and his net play has been phenomenal.

Nintendo is probably going to wait to revise its forecasts until early April after it knows for sure what the effect of foreign exchange rates will be on recurring and net profit in the fourth quarter.

NBC's ratings are so much better than what they were getting with their primetime, so it's a net benefit to them. I think they will hit their ad guarantees.

NBC's ratings are so much better than what they were getting with their prime time, so it's a net benefit to them. I think they will hit their ad guarantees.

On the bench it looked like the net moved. But you can't really see from the bench.

On the explanation given to me, the referee agreed it went into the net but that he blew his whistle first. I couldn't really see it, so there wasn't a lot I could argue about.

On net this is not going to be a big event economically. People initially went to the big impact it was going to have, all predicated on the idea that oil was going to go a lot higher (than it has).

One of the parts we really don't like is the net neutrality provision because it's extraordinarily weak. It does suffer from the same problem as the House bill to the extent that there's nothing about discrimination in there.

I was surprised that they changed the lines. I hope I'll play very well with Olli and Stumpy and help them score goals. I'm going to work hard in corners, get traffic in front of the net and rebounds.

I was surprised. It was the first shift for us. We just tried to throw the puck on net and hopefully go for a rebound or cycle the puck. I took the shot and it just kind of went five-hole. I was surprised, but we'll take it.

I was shocked that we had a 3-on-0 after their defenseman fell down. I knew that if I crashed the net something would happen.

I would have thought somewhere between $10.50 and $11 a share would have been a better price before I saw the 4,000 net (customer) adds.

I go to the net and try to create some scoring chances.

I have gotten calls from a number of senior high-tech executives who are telling me that the market is dissolving rapidly before their eyes. But I suspect that a not inconceivable possibility is that what is dissolving in front of their eyes is their own personal net worth!

I didn't really know what was going on. I thought about going out of the net and not playing into his game, but then I thought he had the (nerve) to go on the ice, so I let him have a free shot at me.

I didn't want to take the ball to the net but they kind of forced me in that direction. I wanted to try to burn as much clock as I could. . . . I probably should have just held on to it.

I don't know what it was, maybe the net looked a little bit bigger for me. For whatever reason, sometimes you get one and you kind of keep rolling. I can't remember anything like this.

I believe the existence of the safety net will keep people on course with their investment strategy.

Cash is king. Without it, you don't pay bills. You don't acquire new companies. You can't do that with net earnings.

Based on the prices we've looked at, we believe the drug plans are getting better net prices than those paid under Medicaid.

Based on the drilling results from the E-1, we expect that together the E-1 and E-2 wells will prove up 200 to 400 net billion cubic feet of gas on Block 4(a). We intend to commence development work by mid-2006 and are targeting mid-2009 for on-line production.

Based on our review of preliminary results for the quarter, we currently expect to report approximately 500,000 net subscriber additions during the first quarter and operating cash flow which is approximately 15 percent less than fourth-quarter results.

Basically this merger will mean even less competition for broadband Internet, and frankly that makes a Net neutrality requirement even more imperative. If there was real competition in the provision of high-speed Internet access we might not be having this conversation, but now the world has gotten even smaller than it was before.

Baxter really played well in net for Mt. Ararat tonight. He was always squared to the puck and didn't allow too many rebounds. He came up big for them.

Because of the strong global economy, there is a safety net surrounding the U.S. economy -- so if it begins to slow, it won't slow much because there is tremendous support.

I love being on the power play. I love standing in front of the net causing havoc in front of their goalie. That's one of my favorite parts of the game for sure.

I had it on my forehand and I went to my backhand and half the net was empty. I had him beat. He slid over and somehow he moved a leg and it went out. I couldn't believe it.

I had practice yesterday, today, and I've got a game Thursday night, so I'm back into it. (Washington has) pretty much the same standard as all football teams. I hope to be with them for a while, I hope it works out. I hope to have a good year, to maintain a 36 net average or better like I did every year in Atlanta. I'd like to keep that up.

I felt I was in clear. I thought I had an empty net when he took me down.

I feel we have flattened out. We have started several years knowing the net effect was going to be down, but the net effect this year has a chance to be up. A lot depends on how we play.

I find it difficult to believe, for example, that the crises that arose in Thailand and Korea would have been nearly so virulent had their central banks published data prior to the crises on net reserves instead of the not very informative gross reserve positions only,

If only the net was just a little wider. We should have won that game. Our kids fought hard, and we overcame a short bench to put a scare into them.

Given the fact that Maine has raised its minimum wage each year for the last five years, that our minimum wage is currently $1.35 above the federal minimum wage and that Maine experienced a net loss of 600 jobs in 2005, one would wonder how it could possibly be true that raising the minimum wage again is going to improve our economy.

Given the declining trend in net foreign purchases of the past five months, we doubt whether these would be sufficient in covering the $55.8 billion trade deficit, ... In that case, markets should expect intensifying damage for the dollar.

Given that we import more than 50 percent of our oil consumption from abroad, it is clear that as these prices rise, we are essentially transferring net wealth from U.S. consumers to oil producers that are mostly located overseas.

Given our view that Longview could put up a fight, and our assessment of valuation as an operating entity (and our net asset value estimate), we would act on the opportunity to sell near the $26 bid.

Giants ownership has left at least $150 million of team net worth on the table.

From our goaltending right on out, I thought we played well, I thought we played hard, I thought we created a lot of offence but you're still in the situation where you're not putting that puck in the net when you have those chances. The 20 minutes in the third period was very important in just finding a way.

From our angle, you couldn't tell if it was going to make it to the net or not. It looked like everything was moving in slow motion.
