Now they focus more on the business drivers. They can do the business due diligence now in three weeks as opposed to three months.

Kaoru Koyano

In a state like Florida, we have people moving into the state, and one of the main draws is the water. That's a diminishing percentage of land, as opposed to the number of people coming in. The one thing we can't grow is beachfront.

Jeff Simpson

The point is, people are getting the most antioxidants from beverages, as opposed to what you might think.

Natalie Hemmer

There was a need for more films that promote friendship between the two neighboring countries and I strongly opposed films that promoted hatred.

Dick Bennett

The major determinant is how much does it take from Jordan as opposed to other markets which historically weren't so close to it.

Angus Blair

Where the men are going to get separated from the boys here is: Who can absorb higher energy and raw materials costs, pass those on in their pricing and have them stick as opposed to absorbing it in lower margins.

Shawn Campbell

They're just really comfortable as opposed to a traditional heel. I feel like you can walk easier in them.

Sarah Andrews

The staff here does a good job of getting people who love football as opposed to people who play football.

Dexter Jackson

I am opposed to that, too. We've never had a mayoral form of government before.
