But consolidation must take priority over any discussions about further tax breaks.
Axel Weber
We're always doing internal reviews, ... This is our business. We take it very seriously. If there is a way to do it better, we do it. Safety and security are our number one priority.
Michael Mccabe
Our priority is to get them situated here.
Mary Green
Getting these systems approved is our top priority, and we are laser-focused on it. But Secretary McPherson can't force vendors to come forward with qualified systems.
Jennifer Kerns
The planning people are definitely considering that a priority.
Michael Choo
I describe this as very much a rare occurrence, despite the fact that we've had a few incidences recently. We absolutely have safety as our ongoing top priority.
Caroline Boren
You have to know what you have and how it's categorized to have that discussion, so it's pretty high up there on the priority list.
Toni Atkins
Priority No. 1 is bringing the budget deficit under control. A downgrade would be very serious.
Tito Boeri
He'd like to take the classics [next season]. It's not going to be his top priority like this year, but you never know how the tour goes.
Roberto Amadio
Truck-only lanes is a significant priority of the department, both in the concept for I-75/575 and also statewide, particularly in metro Atlanta. We are very confident that it has an application and a use in metro Atlanta.
David Spear
Bryan's focus is on playing good hockey -- that's the top priority right now.
Jeff Solomon
What we want to do is let the public know that the FBI has changed its mission after Sept. 11, that our number one priority is the detection and prevention of another terrorist act.
Paul Moskal
Clearly, it wasn't that high a priority.
Rep. David Zuckerman
That is where the crisis is right now. There is a tremendous need. That is where the priority lies.
Keith Mckenzie
The teams are working together, ... Obviously, the forensics has a higher priority. But you try to do it in a way that you give that priority without disadvantaging the accident investigation.
Bob Francis
She had a very busy schedule today, but she made reading to the kids a priority.
Wendy Lapham
Once the doctors give Kylie the 'all clear', her first priority will be to bring the Showgirl tour to Australian fans as promised.
Terry Blamey
Nothing's been determined yet. The priority right now is to get the schedule out, and then there will be meetings with the staff at Doral.
James Cramer
Heck I didn't think I was going to play football in college. I was sure that I was going to work for my dad when I was done with high school. So getting good grades in high school was never a high priority for me.
Steve Manstedt
We believed that the first priority was not to interfere with any relief efforts that were accommodating the evacuees, and that included Houston, it included San Antonio, it certainly included Baton Rouge.
Joe Browne
My priority is the kids.
Councilwoman Esther Sanchez
Her goal is to be a champion tennis player. She's a former No. 1 junior player in the world. She continues at age 21 to grow on the WTA tennis tournament. She's 100 percent committed to her tennis. That is her first priority.
David Schwab
Companies have to make security a priority.
Robert Holleyman
Her priority is to identify the causal factors, in terms of from whence the children came and why they are there.
Dr Omar Davies
The Stars clearly stepped up and established a priority in Sergei, and I personally think that's the best way to do business in the new NHL. They were very honest about their assessment and made a fair offer immediately.
Jay Grossman
The Legislature needs to make dental health a top public health priority. Our organization is doing all it can to help accomplish that goal, which is why passing AB 1334 is so critical.
Lin Sarfaraz
That was our main priority.
Bill Dwyer
We will have an oversight committee that can work as a recommending body, work with me and work with the board, and help us do the things that we want to see done in the Priority Two list. The committee will help us get deeper into that list with the money that we have left after we do the Priority One projects.
Linda Clark
Every governor faces the same budget realities. We're making this a priority by making our voices heard.
John Mascher
I believe the protection for consumers in the state has not been a high priority.
Jackie Speier
Customer service is our highest priority, ... We don't want to commit to opening on an exact date, then disappoint people if it's impossible to open by then.
David Ross
This one hurts significantly. I wish there was one thing [we need to improve on]. I've got a priority list and it is pretty long.
Pat Mcmahon
We are currently complying with other already outstanding court-ordered deadlines. Things that have court-ordered deadlines have to be accorded a high priority.
Jane Hendron
We will do our very best to minimize the disruption to their operation and our management and salaried team will be addressing their priority needs.
Joanne Miller
We have to prioritize our mission _ to go after the highest priority _ and that would be criminal aliens, who are a higher threat to the public than non-criminal aliens.
Carl Rusnok
This is a priority for the administration.
Jennifer Mullin
I would have loved to see Paula have more success than she did, because she is the right kind of person to be in this business. We appreciate the expertise that she brought to this position and the work that she put in. I commend her for making a personal decision for family, for making that the priority in her life.
Jon Carey
We were able to give them priority based on a natural disaster preference.
Henry Morris
I don't have an infinite number of agents to address the unlawful population. So the ones that would come up, priority-wise, would be the ones that pose the greater threats to our community.
Wayne Wills
Our priority must be to build a path towards balancing the budget, and we cannot tolerate growing deficits.
Michael Crapo
I think you're one leader away from getting a high-quality program. This is just a matter of political will and someone setting this as a priority.
Libby Doggett
Definitely the government is interested in investigating this. But the first priority is to rehabilitate the people.
Tariq Khan
Because of the fact that we're under higher education, they don't look at this as an educational priority. We shouldn't be there. We should be under tourism or economic development. We can't compete with the rest of higher education.
Rep. Rafael Gallegos
The first priority is just to get them registered.
Gary Snyder
PLAGIARISM, n. A literary coincidence compounded of a discreditable priority and an honorable subsequence.
Ambrose Bierce
They should set a very clear priority for the government. There is such a large penumbra of issues. The party needs to come to grips with the reality that it has to be coherent politically.
Mahesh Rangarajan
We?re in contact with three national movie chains. One of our goals is to put a movie theater on the eastern side of the property. It?s a high priority goal.
Malcolm Wilson
Expanding operating profitability in the future will continue to remain a priority focus.
Serge Tchuruk
[The upcoming case] is an important priority for Penn because we have a policy that says that recruiters on campus should not discriminate, ... [The amendment is] really limiting our freedom.
Amy Gutmann
It's a whole different ball game when the priority is 6-12 restructuring or when it's 6-12 restructuring but don't add a dime.
Tom Parker
The college's first priority is not meeting the 50 percent law. It's meeting community needs.
Thomas Armstrong
That was a priority. He came out and got that early 3 on us, caught us flat-footed, and he didn't have another 3 the rest of the way. He had a great first half. He really put on a show.
Lance Randall
They're having to make strategic decisions about where to send people literally in midair. It's a very difficult thing to prioritize when they're all a priority.
John Matessino
Complete games are not our priority. If it happens, that'd be great.
Chuck Hernandez
For NASA, space is still a high priority.
Dan Quayle
Governor Rendell made this an absolute priority. During the Rendell administration the wheels have been in motion on this at a very brisk pace.
Patrick Fleming
Security is not a high enough priority for IT networks here, ... We're concerned about Y2K and GST problems. Security is priority two or three. It needs to be number one.
Dean Stockwell
Our top priority is to fix our financial controls and leave accounting issues behind us.
Michael Roth
Very few of the responses will have a post-attack impact, ... In the last two weeks people have ... been very distracted. Filling out response cards to consumer confidence surveys has not really been their number one priority.
Gail Fosler
If we reopen it to negotiations, there will be chaos, and if we postpone it, it will be a negative signal for the priority that human rights should have at the UN.
Heraldo Munoz
Unfortunately, many people do not consider fun an important item on their daily agenda. For me, that was always high priority in whatever I was doing.
Chuck Yeager
Getting an official animal wouldn't be real high up on my priority list, but it certainly wouldn't be something I would mind addressing.
Kathy Patterson
This was our top legislative priority last year.
Bill Ferris
My main priority is to make the child feel safe and help them feel that this is a safe place to speak about what happened. In doing that, it helps the child offer more details to what may have occurred. I want to be able to get as many details about what happened from that child.
Teresa Evans
Plus, I've had six surgeries and I have one more to go with my arm. They had to put a plate and screws in last time. My body can't really handle it anymore. And academics need to take priority.
Andrea Valadez
It is not going to be 14 days, and they are not going to be kicked out of the hotels. Our priority is to make sure these people have a shelter over their heads.
Stacey Grissom
The Simon-Williamson clinic is our priority today. The next step is preparing to accept the business it's going to generate.
Charlie Faulkner
I wouldn't say the DHS has dropped the ball as much as it has neglected to make this a priority.
Denise Moore
The government considers heart, kidney and liver transplants a priority, and these issues will be settled this year.

Safety issues are our primary priority.
John Devilbiss

William Daroff
Our first priority is to prevent these breaches from occurring at all.

Jayson Swain
Our big priority now is to come to terms with the building and meet the deadline before the county impact fees increase.
George Cline
We'll do whatever we can during the school year, but our priority is education without disruption. So most of it will most likely be done during the summer months.
Joseph Kelly
I've loved my four seasons with the Islanders. This is where I really developed as a player. It was a priority for me to stay an Islander. I'm very appreciative that management was as enthusiastic about making a commitment to me.
Shawn Bates
Mr. President, you're busy with things that aren't a priority for Venezuelans.
Julio Borges
It was found to be a credible threat. Since security is priority No. 1 for me, I decided to withdraw our staff from the field.

We would like to reassure anyone who may be put off from coming forward due to their immigration status that our main priority is to find out what has happened to Miriam.
Angela Jones
Our priority is still protecting people and property.
Debbie Ugbade
From Day 1, my whole priority and my objective is to get these guys into situations where they can get some money out of this game. I'm not going to hold any of 'em back at all.
Jaren Jackson
The mayor believes the city of San Diego should get its fair share, but we want to work cooperatively with the county. It's going to factor pretty high on our priority list.
Fred Sainz
We do acquire when we need to complement whatever we've got ... but we aren't one of these companies that is, to a large extent, acquiring technology from outside parties, ... If there are opportunities, we may pursue them, but it's not a priority goal within Alcatel these days.
Serge Tchuruk
We're looking for information that may affect how we patrol the city. How was it executed? What materials were used? Where were the bombs assembled? Obviously if there is any information about New York, that's a priority.
Paul Browne
It is a key priority for Citigroup to resolve major cases like this one and to put a difficult chapter in our history behind us.
Charles O. Prince Iii
The university isn't infinitely wealthy, but (the faculty-salary issue) just hasn't been a priority. Other things have mattered more.
David Weinstein
I'm not a priority on his list.
Marc Jackson
This resolution is about the protection of our children, of which there is no higher priority.
Bruce Peterson
I'm very happy to see the campus and everybody in the Georgia Tech community come together to make this a priority. People have put off agenda items and Labor Day plans to service those in need.
David Andersen
We've got to get salaries up to where they need to be -- that definitely needs to be a priority. But you've also got to get these people something to work with. We keep annexing and not adding staff to cover the new areas, and we have to do that.
Dave Watson
Safety is always the top priority.
Anna Folmnsbee
Some people have suggested looking at additional ways to fund pool elements. At this point in time, these are not in place. I have to manage the $1.5-million as best I can. Right now my main priority is to figure out funding at hand and focus on the outside pool.
Doug Jackson
Getting in touch with your true self must be your first priority.
Tom Hopkins
We know of four Japanese biomedical companies right now that are using San Antonio clinical facilities for advanced testing, ... Those companies need to be persuaded not just to test here but ... to also locate new facilities here. That has to be a priority.
Henry Cisneros
My concern is the player's health and that's priority No.1. We're talking about teenage bodies and they're not getting the opportunity to recover.
Bob Bauman
Our first priority must be to get to the people and ensure their safety, ... There is no question that the situation is an enormous challenge and we must get this aid to the areas in need as quickly as possible.
Vernon Ehlers
That does not mean that these were the highest priority experiments. These are hands-on activities, so they require a lot of crew time.
James Hartsfield
When you're sleep-deprived, you're prone to performance problems. It affects your decision-making, how crisp you are in dealing with things, what your mood is. Sleep needs to be a priority.
Dr. Eric Olson
We're appalled, ... This city is built on tourism, and we're their last priority.
Jill Johnson
The victims here are the poor people, the squatters, ... So that is my top priority.
Joseph Estrada
But my main priority is here [at Manchester City]. I know the England thing is great and everyone likes to talk about it, but my main priority is establishing myself at this club. A lot of people have questioned my consistency and that is something I want to address. This is a fresh start for me. Being around fresh players and enjoying my football again will hopefully be a good thing.
Darius Vassell
The number one business priority this year, as in 2006, is business-process improvement.
Mark Mcdonald
It?s an exciting concept since this particular property is something that has been a high priority for years, and we?re just very pleased to receive it, obtain it and make it a part of the corridor.
Stan Seitzinger
Acting is my priority.
Debra Stephenson
Absolutely, that's been a priority. That's been a purpose from the start.
Sandy Alderson
I have the students for six hours a day. The community has them for 18 hours, plus prenatal and early childhood. I don't believe the schools create (the achievement gap), but our responsibility is not to add to it. We won't eliminate the gap until the community makes education a priority, but the schools can't wait for the community to do its part.
Wendy Robinson
There's no question that homeownership as a policy directive is a priority of the city.
Sean Rogan
It's not good. But there's no way you're going to go into 10,000 acres and get rid of the weeds. It's a low priority.
Dean Knauer
It suggests we are doing our job. We certainly are paying close attention to the charter ... and we have put programs in place and continue to work at it. We consider it an ongoing priority.
Annette Gonzales Taylor
That's definitely the council's priority for 2006.
Joyce Wilson
It was impossible to get back during the basketball season, and I have to be able to do that. That's my priority at this point.
Josh Mcpherson
It continuously gets delayed. It just doesn't seem to be a priority.
Susan Monteverde
My priority is to increase the endowment fund. I think we'll continue to grow.
David Stewart
The number one priority of the Vancouver Police Department is to return Graham safely to his family. The next priority will be catching the people responsible.

Michael Greenberg
It really is time for Seattle to move K-12 education to the top of the priority list because of the severe challenges facing the district.
Joe Quintana
There has to be a priority of maintaining that these are student-athletes, and those who don't want to be students and athletes need to go elsewhere. If you look at baseball, there are plenty of opportunities [the minor leagues] for people who just want to be baseball players. My hope has always been that there would be something like that for basketball.
Gerald Turner
We will take a firm stance. Taiwan's identity should be given priority over conciliation in dealing with China over the next two years and a half. That is the message from President Chen.
James Huang
One of the most important decisions people can make about their health is the choice of foods they eat. A top priority at FDA is finding additional ways to clearly communicate the health benefits found in food.
Dr. Scott Gottlieb
You win football games by stopping the run and 1,800 yards this year is definitely a priority for us. He's their leader. They look to him for big plays and if you can stop him, they have to look to more places and put more pressure on the other guys.
Al Wallace
There's no doubt, winning is the priority, and he's going to be fully supportive in achieving that goal. I think he's indicated that he's going to be open-minded about any proposals that are put forth.
Aidan O'brien
For the federal government, combating attacks on America's houses of worship will remain a permanent priority.
Bill Lann Lee
I believe that's the American Chemistry Council's top priority. I think it's very much a live issue and people in New Jersey should be very much concerned about it.
Andy Igrejas
Gabriella Holt and Ellen Perkins have made significant contributions to our School District and to the children of this community. Sound fiscal management has always been a high priority for Gabriella and Ellen. You certainly left this district in better condition than you found it.
Superintendent Drira Toibin
Our main priority is to make sure that everyone has an enjoyable time and is kept safe, ... The community has been very much behind the Metropolitan Police after the events of July 7 and July 21, and I think this is a good example of that.
Brian Blair
He has assured us to tag our priority items into the list of 97 per cent products to be given duty-free access.
Tipu Munshi
Priority is priority. I don't care who you are. The president of the United States, he's going to have to wait. And Mr. Richardson is not the President of the United States.
Harry Taylor
The business plan raises a lot of questions. Is that other money going to materialize? Is this project the highest priority for federal funds at this point?
Bill Hauck
We're going to first and foremost start working with customers to commercialize the technology - that's the first priority - and to the extent that we can find companies in complementary markets who don't compete with us head to head, we may look at licensing agreements with them.
Sumit Sadana
We're asking for people to show up on Thursday to put some pressure on the board to expedite the negotiations. The district needs to demonstrate that we are a priority.

While we listened carefully to the input from the local communities, military value was our top priority.
Anthony J. Principi
A regime of fixed foreign-exchange rates and obligations to intervene would encroach upon the statute of the ECB and the priority of price stability.

Our number one priority is to identify the patients. We are beginning to go through records now, but it's like looking for needles in haystacks.
Chris Whitney
For NASA, space is still a priority.
George W Bush
Matching their strength will be a priority. Regardless of who is picked, they will be a formidable side.
Craig Brewster
He's a high priority. He can do it all. He can get under center. He can run the ball. He can catch it and he can return it. He's the kind of guy, you've got to keep him in the gate. Once he gets out of the gate, it's tough.
Rob Morris
I am a mom first and foremost. That's why I don't tour. People ask why I don't have CDs and live in Nashville and I tell them I have children and they like to eat and have a roof over their heads. I'm really very much a mom. I have a 15-year-old daughter and a 12-year-old daughter and they are my number one priority.
Angie Mcwhirter
The Department of State places the highest priority on the welfare of children who have been victimized by international abductions.
Phil Reeker
It used to be when people came to this country the priority was to build your home, it was something you learned to do. But now the priority is going to college to get a good job so you can afford to pay someone to build your home.
Chris Proulx
Our No. 1 priority right now is the safety of those individuals and getting medical help to them as soon as we can.
Thad Allen
The German government is working on getting the hostage out of danger. Our priority is to protect the life and integrity of the victim.
Martin Jaeger
On your in-lap the main priority is fuel and check where the other guy is.
Mark Webber
This proves that workers must become priority creditors, and administrators should consult with unions before laying anyone off.
Adrian Ross
Children?s health is a statewide issue. Our elected officials need to put the interests of children at the top of their priority lists.
Beth Griffin
We have reached an agreement in principle with Roma and with the player and we can finally announce we've signed a central defender, a priority for us for next season.
Jorge Valdano
If I had to choose, qualifying for the Champions League has priority.
Andreas Muller
Of course, with the storm, the question is, do you do any capital outlay? You've got other needs now. The governor chooses who gets in what priority and when they move.
Whit Kling
It's important for the state to recognize that transportation is a top priority on everyone's mind, and they can't indiscriminately make transportation decisions . . . without consulting everyone in the process.
Michael Knapp
It quickly spread into a residential area. Luckily we had a helicopter that was stationed here. ... That was a very high priority fire, so they threw everything that they had at it really quickly.
Wayne Beighle
Winning is the priority. There's no doubt he'll be supportive in achieving that goal.
Aidan O'brien
It's been a priority for me that the fan experience be optimal, ... One of the things I've found traveling with the team to different cities is that we do give a good experience.
Mark Attanasio
My priority will be team work.
Kevin Curran
Shipping people back to Morocco is not an answer to this crisis. Protecting these extremely vulnerable people should be the Spanish government's priority.
Holly Cartner
Mitsubishi UFJ's first priority is to digest the merger, ... Speed of execution is the crucial factor.
Standard Life
This is a fundamental priority for us, because this cuts to the very heart of our mission, ... to educate and be educated.
William Maestri
It is now my top priority to learn the fundamentals of being a match referee and I can't wait until my first appointment.
Javagal Srinath
We really made it a priority to bring up questions that were important to students -- where and how would you make the cuts, for example. Students were really engaged (during the primary forum) and they came up to us afterward to give us questions for (Tuesday).
Josh Mason
The silence of the president and the government on, for example farm murders, leads a lot of people to come to the conclusion that these issues are not a priority for the government.
Pieter Mulder
I do think the chief justice has a particular obligation to try to achieve consensus consistent with everyone's individual oath to uphold the Constitution, and that would certainly be a priority for me.
John Roberts
Reversing the brain drain is a key priority for us.
Scott Donnelly
The most immediate need is getting additional food into Afghanistan. So that has to be the top priority.
Larry Thompson
It didn't happen the first few days, but boy, in the last couple of weeks, it just went crazy. It quickly became a priority.
Steve Valdez
There's nothing in this statement that we didn't already know, ... Telecom operators have not been spending and six months ago we thought Marconi would go bust. Its priority is to cut debt.
Mark Tinker
Our priority is always going to be to book shows.
Ric Waldman
When people are struggling to provide food and housing for their kids, dental care is really low on their priority list. But it's so important. It affects health and nutrition.
Patsy Jacobs
For us, the safety and security of our customers and employees is a top priority, and we believe that carrying this issue could challenge that priority.
Beth Bingham
She knows this is it. Her goal has been to make it to states in both. She would have made it last year without that fall. This year it's just going to be her top priority to make it in both events to states.
Kristi Frye
If I am confirmed to this position, my first priority will be to maintain consistency and continuity with the policies established during the Greenspan years.
Ben S. Bernanke
We have to put everything aside as far as hard feelings as there always is in this process. My biggest priority is to unite the program. I'm excited for the challenge.
Tom Brands
I know this is a White House priority. They feel they stand a real chance of getting the funding streams necessary.
Richard Saunders
Business services have experienced strong global growth in recent years. The [BPO] industry is a priority for government given its considerable job creation potential.
Trevor Manuel
Funding is the issue here. There is money for what we consider our public-policy priorities, and mental health is not a public-policy priority.
Jim Dailey
It's time we stopped ignoring the environment, ... Let's not let another election go by without making this a high priority.
David Suzuki
My love for the theater has always been a priority. That hasn't changed. I got into acting that way. The film work that came up was really a surprise.
Philip Seymour Hoffman
I never think we should just come and say we need more money, ... I think the provinces, territories and federal governments need to sit down and say to each other, 'What are the highest-priority needs?' for Canadians.
Lorne Calvert
If we get a new group going, we'll be cutting checks for those folks. It's a priority.
Douglas Toms
We are aware that the immediate priority would be the rescue operation.
Chandrika Kumaratunga
We have every intention of trying to sign Ryan to a multiyear deal. He'll be a priority as the off-season approaches.
Jim Hendry
The main priority is developing in-house expertise. Down the road it gives [YPFB] more freedom to pick and choose what kind of investors to bring and also renegotiate those [exploration and production] contracts.
Chris Garman
My top priority is to make sure that decisions we make are based on how they will affect our students. They're the only reason anyone is involved in education.
Wendy Danielson
Avian influenza has not been a priority for Indonesians.
Juan Lubroth
There was a significant increase in the number of emergent CT scans performed after the release of the NCI statement in 2002, ... As physicians we should make judicious use of CT scans a priority.
Leslie Allen
We try to give them to players who are in the most high-level contact situations, like the quarterback, receivers, running backs and linebackers. But the No. 1 priority is someone who had a concussion previously.
John Castellano
The plan is when I go to college I plan on taking four years off. School is definitely my priority no matter what. It's always been important to me. College is a once in a lifetime experience, and then I will come back to this.
Addison Phillips
It's conceivable that they are exaggerating their progress, but I don't have any knowledge to confirm that. ... This is a very, very high priority, acquiring information about their nuclear program.
