To stimulate discussion and promote further efforts at the development of market instruments to value employee stock options.

Jonathan Gruber

There was one recommendation, and from that we agonized over the plan. Other options should have been considered.

We're disappointed in the ruling, and we're looking at our options.

Jack Bicknell

We hope that we can present as many options for them as possible as they go about seeking long-term housing.

Barbara Ellis

Jeff was really hot early. And that's the nice thing about having so many options, they tried to stop him and my teammates started finding me. I got a lot of easy baskets.

Candice Bergen

This gives us a range of things we could do. Some of that is pretty big dollar amounts. The next step will be ... how do we choose among those options and how do we pay for it?

We will continue to work with landowners to extend some near-term options and develop other contingent-funding scenarios.

Jerry Doyle

She's weighing her options. She has not decided whether she is stepping down.
