Achieving Quotes
We have had a quarter century of tuition going up faster than family income. And we've had completely inadequate increases in the Pell grant. Many states and institutions are shifting from need-based aid to aid based on test scores. At the same time, college has become much more essential for achieving middle-class status in the U.S.

Independent Quotes
Secondly, figures, the symbols of numerical magnitude, are frequently also the symbols of operations, as when they are the indices of powers. Wherever terms have a shifting meaning, independent sets of considerations are liable to become complicated together, and reasoning and results are frequently falsified.
-
Littles Quotes
One main reason why the separate nature of the science of operations has been little felt, and in general little dwelt on, is the shifting meaning of many of the symbols used in mathematical notation. First, the symbols of operation are frequently also the symbols of the results of operations.

Ball Quotes
UCLA had three weeks to get ready. You can't change your whole base defense, but you can put in some new looks. They were shifting a lot right before the snap. But when you've played together like we have, you develop that communication. We eventually figured it out. And we were already moving the ball anyway.
-
Careers Quotes
We've certainly demonstrated that there are at least a core group of people who get elected to public office who will ... put their careers on the line to do what they think is right irrespective of what the shifting winds of popular opinion might be. And we are content to let history be the ultimate judges.
-
Bind Quotes
Too many politicians are shifting the critical themes of our national conversations from a 'big ideas' American Brand Platform to narrowly focused, polarizing sound bites that put party philosophy before what used to be heralded as the common good. These ideas, more often than not, divide us rather than serve to bind us.

Car Quotes
We had a car that was much better than a tenth place finish. Overall the weekend has been great. We had gear shifting problems the entire race. It was a lot of work, and it got a lot worse just before that last yellow. It was not going into fifth gear. I just couldn't hold on to that fourth place once all the cars were packed together. But, I am happy. You look and see where we are coming from and where we are going. There were four of five guys at the front that were clearly leading the field today and we were a part of that. So, overall it's not that bad.

Amazon Quotes
This shifting of water by roots has a physiological effect on the plants, letting them pull more carbon dioxide from the atmosphere as they conduct more photosynthesis. Because this has not been considered until now, people have likely underestimated the amount of carbon taken up by the Amazon and underestimated the impact of Amazonian deforestation on climate.

Architecture Quotes
Fabric7 is showing customers that the days of having to rely on expensive, proprietary processors and operating systems are over. With these results we've proved that the Fabric7 architecture enables a level of scalability and performance on x86 platforms that easily competes with more expensive, proprietary systems that have traditionally dominated the midrange and high-end of the server market. By offering this scalability to customers at three to five times lower cost, we are dramatically shifting the economics of enterprise computing.

Acquiring Quotes
Writers begin changing the instant they append 'The End' to a novel. Readers begin changing the moment they encounter that same phrase. And even the novels themselves, through the strange transmutations of time and shifting tastes and mores, exhibit changes as we look backward upon them, acquiring retroactive meanings and tonalities.
-
Acted Quotes
We feel we can do a service to our customers if we just get the overall trend right. We don't really practice technical analysis or try to guess the price points next week. But the trend does look like it's higher, because the Fed now is probably shifting into neutral earnings are very strong. And because the Fed acted promptly they ensured we would have another year of solid growth next year. That is what the market is anticipating.

Amount Quotes
We're very happy with what the Legislature did this past session regarding family planning funding. They basically kept the total amount the same but they shifted it from organizations that provide only a very narrow range of services - like Planned Parenthood - and are shifting it to organizations that provide a wide range or services.

Besides Quotes
Besides his scoring and everything, he's constantly shifting the praise to others. He was close to breaking the school scoring record and we'd mention it and he's like: 'Yeah, whatever.' He talks about how well everybody else is playing. You put all that together and he's a dream come true.
-
Almost Quotes
Power is shifting from the journalist setting the agenda, to the consumer becoming their own editor - deciding what their media diet will be. We're in the fast food news culture, where you've got a huge buffet. (And) we do almost nothing in the media world to teach people what they need to know to be an intelligent consumer of news.

Beginning Quotes
After a disappointing three-year downturn, we are at the beginning of a substantial semiconductor industry up-cycle, in our view.

-
Agreement Quotes
Any country negotiating with the Bush Administration right now should be wary of signing an agreement, given the example of consistently shifting the finish line for CAFTA in order to appease corporate supporters. There is no reason to believe they will not pull the same stunt with Peru, Panama, Colombia, or Ecuador.

Achieved Quotes
Applications also can be connected pretty seamlessly, which is a major shift with respect to what formerly could be achieved with respect to all these islands of automation? They can finally stop thinking about application and hardware silos -- and the discrete functions they perform -- and begin shifting their attention toward the processes themselves, which is where the real business value lies.
-
Aloud Quotes
This is a sign that the committee is beginning to think aloud about shifting to a more neutral position - but the forecast of significantly slower growth will have to come first, ... For now, the elevated headline inflation rate and the tight pool of available labor remain bigger concerns, so the Fed's guard is still up.
-
Approval Quotes
Thirty years ago people thought that Roe would be a closed case, yet it is still in the headlines. There is a shifting political phenomenon in America. The fact that we have a hearing on a nominee who has not expressed approval for Roe is because we have a huge debate in the political realm about moral values.

Across Quotes
It was a September evening, and not yet seven o'clock, but the day had been a dreary one, and a dense drizzly fog lay low upon the great city. Mud-colored clouds drooped sadly over the muddy streets. Down the Strand the lamps were but misty splotches of diffused light which threw a feeble circular glimmer upon the slimy pavement. The yellow glare from the shop-windows streamed out into the steamy, vaporous air, and threw a murky, shifting radiance across the crowded thoroughfare. There was, to my mind, something eerie and ghost-like in the endless procession of faces which flitted across these narrow bars of light,--sad faces and glad, haggard and merry. Like all human kind, they flitted from the gloom into the light, and so back into the gloom once more.
