Allowed Quotes
This is the hardest I have ever worked in trying to ask the government to let Northwest pay.

Airline Quotes
As we have consistently stated, the airline industry has changed permanently. Northwest must significantly lower its costs to compete with other carriers. By filing for Chapter 11 now, we ensure that we have the means to complete the transformation of Northwest quickly and effectively.

Careers Quotes
It's particularly devastating to the last 310 flight attendants laid off in 2001 after September 11, who were just called back to work Aug. 1.

Now they will have to look for work again.

Airline Quotes
In fact, we've never turned an airline away, and we would love to see them come in. In the bottom line, it's going to be a business decision on the parts of those airlines.

Companies Quotes
In summary, I do think that the Northwest Corridor is still going to be a vibrant marketplace, but it has shifted, with the growth being more from the small- and medium-sized businesses, rather than the great big corporate companies that are making decisions for million- square-foot campuses.

Anderson Quotes
In 1938, Lloyd Anderson and some of his climbing buddies here in the Northwest were hard-pressed to find ice axes that met their quality needs and would perform well for them in the field.

Central Quotes
How a farmer controls corn rootworm in Indiana really depends on what sort of pest pressure they face. In southern Indiana, most farmers wouldn't treat for it at all because there are very few corn rootworm larvae in that part of the state. In the moderate region in northeast and central Indiana, farmers may use soil insecticides or seed treatments for control. In the high pressure northwest corner of Indiana, most farmers use soil insecticides and some use seed treatments.

Announce Quotes
I am pleased to announce the Vancouver expansion that occurs earlier than we had first anticipated.
