Net Quotes from:

Both Quotes
Our business has improved dramatically over the last twelve months. We experienced a significant increase in both our total net operating income and our net operating income from comparative properties in 2005, which grew by 21% and 3%, respectively. Our total funds from operations increased by 12% to $66.3 million. On a per unit basis, FFO increased by 4% from a year earlier. These improvements, together with numerous acquisitions completed and currently in our pipeline, have positioned us as a more competitive investment vehicle.
-
Anticipate Quotes
Our outlook for 2006 is for operating earnings per share growth within our long-term goal of 12% to 15%, but at the lower end of the range due to the expected dilution related to the equity offering completed during the fourth quarter. We anticipate core loan growth will continue to be within our targeted range of 10% to 14%. Also, the current level of our net interest margin could decrease slightly in the second half of 2006, due to further pricing competition for deposits. Our outlook assumes a stable economic environment and continued strong credit quality.

Along Quotes
Part of what we're trying to do is get pucks to the net and outwork teams along the boards, something we'd like to build on. But now pucks are just going to the net. Some of the time when we're getting a lot of those chances we're trying to get second and third opportunities. It's really just getting the bounces.
-
Amount Quotes
Our members are probably offsetting half the cost themselves. What it could mean for them is a 25% loss in net income. Given the demands of the job - long work weeks, time spent away from home - the rewards aren't there. The work is to hard relative to the amount of compensation you make. It isn't sufficient to keep them in business.
-
Beating Quotes
That doesn't mean much now. We've got a tough opponent in the playoffs and we want to go out there and concentrate on beating those guys and perform as well as we can. We have to keep our focus and play our game. They're going to make it tough, so we're going to have to pay a bit of price in front of the net ù get into the corners and work hard.
-
Across Quotes
Loan and deposit growth was strong across all markets. Total assets at year-end were $5.9 billion, a 15% increase from a year ago. Loans increased $144 million during the fourth quarter, or 14% on an annualized basis, and helped drive the increase in net interest revenue. Our net interest margin rose to 4.20%, up 15 basis points from a year ago and up three basis points from last quarter, as increasing short-term interest rates continued to positively affect our slightly asset-sensitive balance sheet. Fee revenue, excluding securities losses taken in the fourth quarter of 2005, was up 12%, reflecting increases in nearly every category.

Achieves Quotes
Lodi needs to rebuild its electric system's financial reserves to ensure system stability during volatile periods in the power market, which it expects to do steadily over a long time horizon by increasing annual net surpluses and fixed charge coverage. If the city achieves its financial plan while at the same time reducing operational risks going forward, the outlook will be revised to stable. Should the city fail to rebuild reserves or increase coverage of fixed charges, or should it experience any other unexpected adverse developments of a financial nature, the rating will be lowered.

Best Quotes
I think Sam Faber showed today why to my money she's the best freshman maybe in the country. Certainly she's the best freshman in our league. She's got some of the best moves you will ever see. The kids tease her all the time. She waits until she's checked the goalie like 18 times and she's had the open net for about a half-hour before she finally shoots it in." ()

Capable Quotes
I struggled in the first game of the series, and I didn't want to end my Yale career on that note. I really wanted to be in the net on Saturday so I could play like I'm capable of. I just went out, had fun and after the game, I knew there was nothing more I could have done on the ice.
-
Block Quotes
I write every day. Most weekdays, I write about ten hours a day. That doesn't mean eight hours of surfing the Net or watching videos on YouTube. I park my butt in a chair and write... I learned that writer's block is a myth created by people who don't have, or understand, a writing process.
-
Animal Quotes
We need another and a wiser and perhaps a more mystical concept of animals. Remote from universal nature, and living by complicated artifice, man in civilization surveys the creature through the glass of his knowledge and sees thereby a feather magnified and the whole image in distortion. We patronize them for their incompleteness, for their tragic fate of having taken form so far below ourselves. And therein we err, and greatly err. For the animal shall not be measured by man. In a world older and more complete than ours they move finished and complete, gifted with extensions of the senses we have lost or never attained, living by voices we shall never hear. They are not brethren, they are not underlings; they are other nations caught with ourselves in the net of life and time, fellow prisoners of the splendour and travail of the earth.
-
Couple Quotes
I wasn't really worried about that. The main focus tonight was to get those ugly goals, go to the front of the net and get those rebounds, and I think we did. We screened us, he gave us a couple of rebounds and we made some nice plays, but we just had to play a simple game in the third and we didn't.
-
Again Quotes
We continue to be pleased with our asset/liability management performance which, in a challenging interest rate environment, again produced an increase in our net interest margin for the first quarter of 2006. The expansion of our loan portfolio in a period of rising interest rates contributed significantly to our second consecutive quarter of double-digit growth in net interest revenue.
-
Billion Quotes
We do not expect any significant increase in capital spending for new restaurants since net new unit growth is expected to continue at 1% to 2% in the near term. In addition, we expect to return roughly $5 billion to $6 billion to shareholders via dividends and share repurchase over the next two years.
-
Average Quotes
While 2005 was a challenging year, we did make some significant progress. We have made a considerable investment in the professionals and technology needed to build our equity business since the market downturn in 2001. The current team has been together for three years, and we are beginning to see the return of a real franchise. Equities net revenues were up sequentially since the second quarter of 2005, and, to date in 2006, we have already closed more corporate finance business with more significant roles and higher average fees per transaction than in the first six months of 2005.
-
Advanced Quotes
USG's other announcement today, its earnings report, also explodes the myths advanced by advocates of S.852, that the bill must be passed to save jobs lost through the enormous financial pain being endured by big corporate asbestos defendants. In its press release, the company reports 'Record Fourth Quarter 2005 Net Sales of $1.3 billion.' That the Senate would now shower companies like USG with even more benefits from S.852 is mind-boggling.

Attraction Quotes
Virtuality - connection without proximity - is a major attraction in both fandom and the Net. Nobody knows you're a dog through the U.S. mail, either. Fans could be utterly different in their fanzine persona, which may be why both fandom and the Net were invented by individualistic Americans.

Along Quotes
We need to find out more about how stripers live. Stripers came close to the brink of extinction 25 years ago. Other species are still in trouble. Rutgers is leading the effort along the Jersey Shore to study our fisheries. I hope Net Free steers clear of nets and won't end up on a dinner table. We have something to learn form Net Free and the other tagged fish.

Dirty Quotes
We've been getting some excellent hockey by all four lines, and I think that's why we're having success right now because we're not just relying on our big dogs to score the goals. I just tried to get the puck on net and Murray, getting his nose dirty once again, made a great deflection.
