The number of steers we keep on hand depends on the time of year.

With less than half the population, to have 80 percent of the votes cast in 2002 _ clearly that's a significant number.
Greg Rigamer
The high number of cases is very hard to explain.

Tor Odland
I think it is unrealistic to appropriate $10 billion, $30 billion at a time, ... It's important to talk about the big number up front.

Slade Gorton

Michael Kupinski
The household spending number highlights the risks facing the consumer sector.
Simon Rubinsohn

James Koster
We will definitely be looking at building a large number of individual wireless accounts, both business and residential.

This particular king is famous for having created a huge number of these statues.
Peter Brand
That's my number one goal besides anything else. It's been a while and we got a good team.
Dashaun Wood
We are reaching a critical point. The number of births now determines what happens in the next decade-and-a-half to two decades. You can't revise it afterwards. The availability of human capital will get worse, and act as a brake on growth.
