We are pleased to report such outstanding results in our second quarter as a public company. We continue to see broad acceptance of our products and the Springboard platform across all regions of the world. We feel very positive about our position as we head into the holiday season.

Accepted Quotes
We've accepted the fact that the earnings growth for the quarter is around 20, 21 percent year-over-year for the S&P. But there's been this behind the scenes look or under the surface look at revenue. And we haven't got the best of forecasts for the second half of the year in many companies going forward. And if you don't have that pristine look -- where you come in this earnings season totally clean -- you've gotten battered. And I can't even name more than a handful of stocks that have come through.

Change Quotes
We usually start off slowly. We usually play better in the second half, but we just played well in the second quarter and they really struggled shooting the ball. Obviously, that made things easier for us. We didn't change anything. We went with our game plan. We just did a better job executing.
-
Capability Quotes
We started the season with 8-of-10 games on the road playing some tough teams. Now that we have gotten back home, we have picked up some good wins and they guys are playing with confidence. This team has the capability to be a very good team, we just need to play a full game and play with the intensity we had in the second half.
-
Adjust Quotes
We struggled in the middle of the park; this was our main problem. This is why we needed to adjust the situation at halftime, to make sure that they're not going to have an advantage in the middle. I think Ben Olsen and Brian Carroll did a pretty good job. In the second half Clyde Simms came on and I think that was pretty significant and we got better and moved better going forward. We came a very long way to get these three points and we're happy with the win.
-
Beat Quotes
We believe that the fundamentals of our business are still very healthy, and we did beat analysts estimates in terms of our earnings, and saw an opportunity to make a little more money with some slowness in Europe and the government sector. In the second half, we're still confident that the target and goal we have talked to the Street about, the 30 percent growth, is achievable, and believe that seasonally the second half is better, and will be this year as well,

Compared Quotes
We are seeing a different environment and performance in the second half of the fiscal year compared to the first half, ... Some of the issues that negatively impacted our third quarter will continue to impact the remainder of our fiscal year. We, like many other companies, are watching the effect of a softening economy on our business.

Common Quotes
There are common lessons for us to learn from our own UK study and from the study just released by the AAUW. First, these forms of victimization happen to far too many students: female and male, from all walks of life, and from all races and ethnicities. The second discomforting similarity is that most students who have these experiences do not tell.

Cutting Quotes
We stopped a lot of their easy baskets. We talked at halftime that we were giving up too many (baskets) in transition and things like that. We gave up a lot of steals in the first half and a lot of easy baskets. We tried to focus on cutting off their dribble penetration. That was really hurting us. We wanted to make them shoot over the top. I think it worked to an extent in the second half.
-
Against Quotes
We started moving the ball a lot better later in the first quarter, early in the second quarter. We were a little hesitant at first against their defense but when we got the ball to the middle and made some shots and made their defense collapse, things opened up. We have guys who can really knock shots down if you give them an open look.
-
Again Quotes
We started again -- we have an alternate source of power -- but then Duquesne Light flipped the switch for whatever reason a second time, and that blew the first source, and that's what caused the problem. At the same time, probably a surge here caused a little fire in an electrical panel. That's been entirely taken care of.

Behind Quotes
We started 14th and got off to a real good start and moved up pretty quick. I was running second on a lap 11 restart and I tried passing right away but couldn't make it happen. I just sort of hung around behind (Jim Young), and on a lap 18 restart I got beside him in one and two and made the pass down the backstretch.
