America Quotes
The labor markets in North America have been incredibly stable and, as is so often the case, the Mexican labor market is moving in tandem with its northern neighbor. There is notable optimism amongst employers in the construction sector in both the US and Mexico, where job seekers should find favorable conditions.

Areas Quotes
The large influx of ducks into the state since the November survey is undoubtedly due to recent severe cold fronts bringing freezing temperatures and snow to northern and mid-latitude areas of the Central and Mississippi Flyway. Combined with persistent drought to the north, conditions were favorable for waterfowl migration into Louisiana.

African Quotes
The Middle East and northern African countries should be able to build up a line of defense against avian influenza.

Against Quotes
In 2002 and 2003, the Bush administration decided against bombing Zarqawi's camp in northern Iraq because it might derail plans to depose Saddam Hussein.

Aim Quotes
I'm very excited because the big aim for us since two years ago has been to qualify for the World Cup and there were a lot of discussions about England not going, especially after the Northern Ireland game. Now the big aim is to prepare everything in detail for the World Cup. I should like to thank all the players who have been involved and all the fans who have supported us, they've been fantastic.

Along Quotes
If you were to tell me that we would have six Northern Region guys in the finals five years ago, I'd have thought you were crazy. Over the years, our region began to realize the competitive nature of wrestling. Now, I think our region is one of the top two in the state. We're coming along very, very well.

Leaders And Leadership Quotes
If there is to be peace in the Middle East, it will require leadership, vision and the willingness of leaders on both sides to make sacrifices for the greater good. In this context, the secretary-general commends the courageous decision of Prime Minister Sharon to carry through with the painful process of disengagement from the Gaza Strip and part of the northern West Bank.

Acres Quotes
Before you rip off three feet of toilet paper, consider that each year 500,000 acres of virgin boreal forest in northern Alberta and Ontario are being clear-cut to make the stuff. These forests are home to some 500 First Nation communities, as well as caribou and bears, moose and wolves, and, in the summertime, billions of songbirds.

Array Quotes
I do think that with only one game a year we need to be very realistic how frequently the game is going to be back in cities that have already had it. The point is, we can play Super Bowls all over America, but unless you are naive as to how the weather is in this country, it does still get cold in the winter. We have to be realistic. We're not going to play the game all over the country. We will concentrate on northern cities with domes and there will continue to be a heavy array of games in the southern climates.

Accept Quotes
I do think one success of Northern Europe, which the United States came from, was its willingness to accept innovation in business practices like Adam Smith and the whole Enlightenment. It essentially made the merchant class free instead of controlled by the king and aristocracy. That was essential.

Focus Quotes
I don't think we get much respect, quite frankly. Rutland has a reputation, and there's a lot of focus on Northern teams, but that's not really an issue. These kids play better when they feel like they're underdogs. I do think there's a lack of respect for what's going on in our neck of the woods, and I think (my players) like that. I think it motivates them.

Additional Quotes
The current budget for the plant upgrade is sizable at approximately $75 million, including $56.6 million in a guaranteed construction contract. While historical system financial performance has been healthy, adequate coverage on the 2006 bonds will require a significant increase in net revenues. The city council and sanitary district boards have already approved rate increases of 32% in fiscal 2006 and an additional 59% over the next three years, to $65.68 in fiscal 2009. While high, these rates would not be the highest for comparable sanitary districts in northern California, and the rate increases have gone through the required public hearing process.
