I don't know what company would announce cuts and then not take them all, ... Not only would Wall Street be breathing down their neck, but it would leave workers under a cloud that more cuts must be coming. I don't think they go into these announcements very lightly.

I'd be proud to say it in a chat room, to the Wall Street Journal , on the cover of your magazine, that hey, these are abusive users, and we have to do something about it. This isn't a charity. We have to run a business.

Certainly the council didn't think that closing Charles Street was the right thing to do.

Business conditions continue to be robust. The company expressed high confidence in its third-quarter guidance of greater than $3 billion in bookings, $2.6 to $2.7 million in revenue and EPS of 64 to 68 cents.

Bryce and Chris are among the seven seniors that are pretty special to me because I coached them two years with the high school and two years with Bantams. So it was hard to see Bryce and Chris in street clothes for the playoffs.

Bay Street has changed and so has the attitude towards dressing, so we took this into consideration as we designed this new store, ... The modern Bay Street executive wants more than just formal business attire in their wardrobe.

Basically, when I went to school in Sri Lanka from age five onward, the classes there were sometimes sorted into a hierarchy of your skin tone. So the fairer-skinned kids sat at the front row, and the darker-skinned kids sat at the back by the poor ones who played out in the street all day long.

I'm astonished how many people I knew, Labor and Tory, who went. I don't think you would have a million people out in the street just to say war is bad. What tipped it toward such big numbers is this idea that the U.S.'s approach is such a misdiagnosis.

I'm an American designer. It's important to riff on that. I remember, when my mom and I first came to the States, she was so shocked that everyone was so dressed down in sandals and shorts. It's not quite like that in Asia. To give that a superluxurious makeover? For me to make street wear? It's sort of chic to do it.

Imagine trying to see a mosquito disappearing behind a 400-Watt streetlamp, not at the next street corner or a few blocks away, but 1,000 kilometers away. That's equivalent to what we're trying to do to detect the planet's eclipse in the HD 209458 system.

I had a theatre company years ago when I was a young man, and we would do street theater. This guy did a workshop one day on fire eating, and I participated, and it was just one of those party tricks that you learn. My last endeavor doing that was with the Muppets, back in 1995 or something like that. And I haven't done it since.

I have been in Wall Street all of my life. I love it. It has been good to me. I know many wonderful, decent, honorable, ethical, hard-working people that were in Wall Street with me.

I have my fingers crossed that the new development at the end of Main Street can help turn the corner on a downward trend.

I had to zigzag around trees and power lines ... I had no access to maps, and there were no street signs. It was a little challenging for an out-of-towner.

I happened to fall into a job that wound up being a seminal piece of television history, which was a show I did on HBO called 'The Wire.' That experience really set the bar for me and opened a lot of doors. It also gave me a lot of street cred in terms of my phone ringing and job offers.

I felt like a race horse in a world without racetracks or a champion college footballer suddenly confronted by Wall Street and a business suit, his days of glory shrunk to a little gold cup on his mantel with a date engraved on it like a date on a tombstone.

If I pushed the poor person out onto the street and his wife or passerby called 911, there would be no charge, ... This is a punishment fine, not for services rendered.

Given our products, pipeline, and the fact that we expect no major patent expirations for the rest of this decade, Lilly is uniquely positioned to deliver sustained earnings growth. For 2006, we anticipate earnings per share of $3.10 to $3.20, which represents 8% to 12% growth compared with expected 2005 adjusted earnings. This growth rate is nearly double the average Wall Street consensus forecast for large-cap pharmaceutical companies.

Full throttle -- like something was wrong and he was trying to get out of here quick. He came out in reverse, barreled across the street and curbs and came up through the yard like he is now. (He) started spinning his tires. A whole bunch of smoke and then the tires caught fire.

From time to time we do these investigations and try to battle prostitution on 14th Street and in some of these lingerie shops, but the problem is, there's unfortunately a demand for it. It's an ongoing problem.

I don't think a lot of the guys from the Midwest and the West Coast really know what to make of him at first. When he came in with his verbiage and attitude, it didn't shock me much. We were sort of on the same wavelength. The New Jersey state of mind is the stereotypical street kid who doesn't take anything from anyone. That's how we want our offense to be.

I don't remember GM ever doing anything like this before, not firing people and putting them out on the street with a box. They were called 'Mother GM' for a reason.

If a man is called to be a street sweeper, he should sweep streets even as Michelangelo painted, or Beethoven composed music, or Shakespeare wrote poetry.

If after the report on Wednesday investors believe that FedEx will be able to post double-digit (earnings per share) growth during the first half of the fiscal year 2001, we believe the stock should begin to act a bit better.

If achieving the Hong Kong dream becomes a vanishing hope, then our society will suffer. What would the Hong Kong dream be?

For the short amount of time he was here, he worked hard and picked up things pretty well, assignments and all that. It's tough to bring a guy in here off the street who's not familiar with your system and then put him in the game for a significant amount of plays. To his credit, I thought he was competitive.

I get 'USA Today,' the 'New York Times,' 'Wall Street Journal' and the 'Star-Telegram' at my doorstep. I can't do without them.

He's got to show these right wingers that he's got a backbone, you know. It's why the Wall Street Journal editorial page is watching you. Show 'em that you're tough.

He was a real man, a person of the community. We could relate to him. You could see him walking down the street or sitting in a coffee shop or breaking away so he could go have a cigarette. I feel blessed to have been able to share that, to do his work and to have him see my work.

I always keep my ear to the street and my eyes on the television.

I always thought I'd buy my mother a house if I ever became successful - a big, beautiful house on the nicest street in town. It didn't exactly work out that way. I was still borrowing money from her in my 40s.

He had a street smartness and a toughness about him. He was also a very good wrestler. Just a tough, dependable son of a gun.

He gives me all this money and keeps coming back every year and filling my pockets. It's been real handy. I feel like I've been on Easy Street since 2003. I know I'm not, but I act like it.

Having book smarts versus street smarts seemed like a great idea but it changed the tenor of the show, ... It affected the reaction among the show's usually wealthy and well-educated audience. I don't think people wanted to see potty-mouthed competitors.

Whatever is coming from over there and crosses this street is coming to my town and I've seen them in my neighborhood.

What makes you think you can't call someone like (outgoing Indiana coach) Mike Davis ? Give me his number and I'll talk to him if you won't. No one should be afraid to talk to anyone. Ask them. Imagine a Mike Davis or someone like that here. You know there will instantly be players here. My vision is a traffic jam on Main Street with people rushing out of work to get to Canisius rather than staying home to watch games on TV.

What makes you say that a guy who has been on the street for five years and is a heroin addict is any more needy than a woman who is being beaten nightly in front of her children?

The people on the street are your best ambassadors.

Hard Rock Cafe's like-for-like sales continue to improve and this was supported by exceptional performance in the hotel and casino division with revenue continuing to exceed projections. In 2005, we also successfully relocated our New York cafe from 57th Street to our new flagship location at the Paramount Theatre in Times Square. As we look forward to 2006, we will be commemorating our 35th anniversary with a global music celebration. We are also already engaged in a number of exciting new projects, including the opening of Hard Rock Hotel Madrid, the first Hard Rock Hotel in Europe.
