For the skeptic there remains only one consolation: if there should be such a thing as superhuman law it is administered with subhuman inefficiency.

Eric Ambler

We would like people who will judiciously manage the forests and ensure the nation remains self-sufficient in its timber requirements.

Cde Nhema

The company remains the dominant operator in music retail, but its aggressive online promotional stance continues to threaten the company's earnings trajectory.

Matthew Fassler

It is a quiet and peaceful place - and a fitting place for the remains of this greatest of sea tragedies to rest.

Robert D. Ballard

President Gerald R. Ford remains a patient at Eisenhower Medical Center.

Penny Circle

Dell's model is designed to weather slowdowns, but we believe HP remains at risk.

Chris Whitmore

Given China's record as a launching pad for other infectious diseases, transparency remains a big concern.

Bates Gill

I think CA remains very much a work in process. This raises further questions about the recovery of CA. It raises questions about exactly what is happening.

Kevin Buttigieg

Always the cat remains a little beyond the limits we try to set for him in our blind folly.

Andre Norton

As long as the current upward momentum remains intact, it would not be a surprise if the dollar moves to test the 120-yen level.

Takashi Kudo

We still use the original recipe, which remains secret. But I'll say that our breading gives the chicken its distinct taste. Unlike most places, we also cook the chicken in lard, and we only use fresh chicken - not frozen pieces.

Judy Beck

It's going to be a very pivotal day for us. The threat still remains, but we continue to be very hopeful that we have a good solid plan in place.

Jeff Whitney

What remains to be seen is whether the information entered into these registries actually become useful down to the level of the individual. Hopefully, the infrastructure is behind this to make it user-friendly.

Dr. Mark Fendrick

We have a memorial hill where people can place etched stones for loved ones whose remains have been scattered.

Lorretta Guazzini

Our goals are to continue to hit routines. We still haven't hit 24 for 24, like we are capable of. That remains a goal that we haven't achieved yet.

Steve Shephard

It remains to be seen whether this is politically useful, but they don't have much else.

Ray Sullivan

I consider myself a sounding board for the community, I'm not somebody who has an agenda. The community has been very supportive of the district and Bismarck remains a progressive community.

Tim Mueller

We believe that America's military strength is superior in every respect and we are committed to making sure it remains that way.

Adam Schiff

The U.S. is starting to show some reassuring signs that growth remains intact, and that's one element of comfort for investors to keep buying Japan.

Koichi Seki

The oil price remains high and that might help energy companies. Otherwise, it's a mixed picture.

Lex Bouwmeester

The economy remains extremely sensitive to external demand. Even if we have a pickup in external demand, it's going to be quiet for some time until those backups are cleared.

James Malcolm

Than Shwe is now 18 years governing the country and remains deeply unloved by the majority of the population. That's amazing.

Aung Zaw

HEI acquired more than $1.5 billion in hotels over the past 36 months. We believe the outlook for hotel investment remains quite positive. Our most recent fund, which will allow us to acquire approximately $1.5 billion in assets over the next 36 months, was originally targeted at $350 million, but became over-subscribed.

Gary Mendell

I was particularly happy that the court clarified that the 1997 compact really is dead and gone, although it remains in the published version of the New Mexico statutes.

Richard Hughes

It'll take months... and potentially years before the ultimate outcome is known. The management remains focused on resolving those issues rather than growing earnings.

Margo Vignola

Sentiment (for the dollar) remains mixed.

Satoru Ogasawara

The Jockeys' Association remains fully committed to maintaining the integrity and security of our sport and upholding public confidence.

John Blake

In France, and in Europe generally, consumption is very reactive to prices. So if inflation remains close to two percent, that is a potential problem.

Stephane Deo

In the end it will be the market which determines the outcome and there is sufficient price tension to suggest another increase but to what degree remains uncertain.

Ron Cameron

We doubt the market pays 27 times estimated 2006 earnings and 24.5 times estimated 2007 earnings for a dividend yield that remains low.

Melanie Flouquet

The market remains fund-driven. No one wants to go short while consumers buy in dips and producers are reluctant to sell, hoping for yet higher prices.

Robin Bhar

The outlook for Asia-Pacific's aviation industry in 2006 remains fairly positive, although the burden of high oil prices on the global economy remains a concern.

Andrew Herdman

Congressional support for the C-17 remains strong in all four Defense committees, ... We've provided cost information to the Air Force at their request for options as high as 60 additional C-17s.

Dave Bowman

Some states have taken tentative first steps, but much remains to be done to fully protect home and business owners.

Dana Berliner

Our visibility going forward remains very limited, as has been the case for the last 18 months.

Jeff Henley

Commercial real estate remains strong, because we are finally catching up on the demand.

John Auld

If only the world remains wedded to free trade, there seems to be nothing to prevent China's export juggernaut from continuing to rumble on.

Andy Xie

We have accomplished a great deal in 1998 and have made enormous progress in laying the foundation for solid future performance. The performance of our lodging operations for the fourth quarter remains strong and ahead of our expectations.

Barry Sternlicht

To an extent, the market has built in a rebound. Whether it's too soon remains to be seen.

Joe Kalinowski

We will use the remains that were recovered from beneath the pyre, essentially bones and skin fragments that have been preserved over generations.

Philippe Charlier

Our goal was, and remains, to stop these boats without having to resort to warning shots or disabling fire.

James Loy

The outlook for the U.S. automotive industry remains favorable -- consumer confidence continues to be high while unemployment and inflation remain low.

Robert Eaton

Supply remains tight; buyers may have been unable to find the homes they want where they want them. Housing will not fold.

Ian Shepherdson

The fight against corruption remains pure rhetoric. Reforms, aimed to block usurpation of power by the government's leader and officials' arbitrariness, have been constantly postponed.

Almazbek Atambayev

Despite the strong domestic demand, high oil prices and rising food prices, inflation remains relatively benign at both producer and consumer levels.

Dennis Dykes

Bulk annuities did compensate this quarter, but this weakness remains an issue given that annuities supply 50% of Legal & General's new business profits.

Bruno Paulson

NCBA members have been leaders in the promotion of reliable, free and fair trade across the globe. But we are disappointed that once again, at a time when breaking down international trade barriers is the way forward for producer growth and increased profit opportunities, an arbitrary restriction on U.S. beef exports remains.

Michelle Reinke

I think the race remains wide open.

John Allen

This will show the labor market remains in good shape, despite several months of disappointing figures. The surge in mining exports from the favorable global environment is flowing through the economy.

Joseph Capurso

A good population of elms remains in Langford due to the diligence of the residents in quickly removing the problem trees.

Craig Brown

Big 5 Sporting Goods continues to be hampered by distribution center inefficiencies and higher accounting/auditing costs. It remains unclear when distribution center problems will be corrected.

Rick Nelson

The consensus is that we are definitely going to war and it's probably two to three weeks away, no more than that. We can take it as a given that the Bank of Japan is in the market at or around 117, so that the low we have tested in the past at 116.80 remains intact.

Derek Halpenny

Security remains a paramount concern for the elections. It is very clearly difficult for any government to deliver the services it needs in an environment where security is a problem.

Adrian Edwards

Hope is a gift we give ourselves, and it remains when all else is gone.

Naomi Judd

This points out that the labor market remains as tight as ever.

Douglas Porter

The Shanghai Composite 1,300 point level remains as a major resistance. Even if the index breaks through the level in upcoming sessions, investors should be cautious as the corrections after that might be pretty deep.

Shen Jun

Public safety remains our principal interest. The Army has demonstrated since 1990 that it can safely destroy these chemical munitions, having already destroyed over 8,000 tons of chemical agent and over 1.3 million munitions without harming human health or the environment.

Les Brownlee

That should bode well for the investment banking side. The backdrop remains pretty positive.

Scott Billeadeau

Gold will continue to attract funds as an alternative asset. The dollar seems likely to be defensive for a while, and the trend in oil remains positive.

William O'neill

While visibility remains limited due to challenging conditions across the telecommunications industry, we remain enthusiastic about the capabilities of our products and the compelling value they deliver.

Dan Smith

A leopard sprawled in the crook of an acacia tree, rising now and then to bite on the remains of a gazelle he had tucked away in a nearby branch, as one would get up from a couch to find some inviting edible in the refrigerator.

Horace Sutton

Freedom in capitalist society always remains about the same as it was in ancient Greek republics: Freedom for slave owners.

Vladimir Lenin

As long as it does not reach the 10-11 per cent interest rate, which was recorded during the financial crisis, and remains at the 7-8 per cent level, the property sector will have a good year.

Hatta Adam

We believe the likelihood of the merger going through remains high, but it is possible that the merger will be delayed or that the U.S. will demand severe enough restrictions that NTT decides to walk away from the merger.

Harry Blount

That ban remains in force.

Philip Tod

The existing mainland policy remains intact. We are more than willing to talk with Beijing without any preconditions on visits by China's tourists and chartered cargo flights.

James Huang

Whether they're successful in that pursuit remains to be seen.

Richard Peterson

Absolutely, security remains a paramount concern for the UN. Yes, it is a matter of concern.

Adrian Edwards

In July 1955, Weldon Kees's car was found abandoned in a parking lot near the Golden Gate Bridge in San Francisco. There was no trace of Kees -- no body, no suicide note -- and to this day the mystery remains unsolved.

Weldon Kees

[What remains the same is the filter of time:] As you get older, ... you realize your parents don't look so dumb - and that you're not as smart as you thought you were.

Paul Reiser

Step back and look at the big picture, ... The big picture for the American economy remains positive.

Money Magazine

The prerogative of the return of former President Taylor remains that of the Liberian people and government.

Remi Oyo

Certainly sentiment towards gold now remains positive, with the market ignoring the further drift lower in the oil price and the recent strength in the dollar.

Alan Williamson

Our goal remains to take first place in the East, and it's an attainable goal.

Don Matthews

We're really looking at what we can do with less land. As growth continues and land remains at a premium, we can't always afford to buy land.

Dianne Kramer

The case to be diversified remains, but not necessarily as a play on the dollar.

William Valentine

If the controlled area remains free of AHS by then, we are expecting the EU to lift the suspension.

Peter Gibson

My expectation today remains exactly what it was nine years ago, even, six, five and four years ago. I expect children's deaths to be investigated.

Gordon Campbell

We really feel very fortunate that we do have some remains coming home to us, and we are welcoming him home.

Brenda Scott

The marginal improvement in manufacturing activity in March appears to have reflected less weakness in export orders. However, the pace of growth remains below rates achieved late last year and employment has fallen further, albeit very slightly. Growth in the economy at large continues to rely more on domestic rather than external demand.

Dermot O'brien

Coal remains an important material basis for the country's economic growth and social development.

Liu Shijin

Mining-related demand remains very strong.

Mark Koznarek

Investors may find it difficult to buy Treasuries as future monetary policy is data dependent. The inflation risk remains alive and the indicators ahead will probably support the view that economic growth is continuing.

Toshihiko Sakai

Therefore when the mind knows itself and loves itself, there remains a trinity, that is the mind, love and knowledge. But the mind is here accepted not for the soul, but for that which is the more excellent in the soul. But these three, though they be distinct from one another, are, however, said to be one, because they exist substantially in the soul.

Peter Lombard

It brings that element of life that other archaeological remains can't.

Steve Webb

This remains one of the most interesting major retailing case studies in the past 20 years.

Richard Hastings

I think they have achieved some of their goals in that it is a broad-based, comprehensive tax that covers most businesses in the state. It remains to be seen how people will react.

Bob Owen

Ignorance about its scale and impact is almost universal and international engagement remains completely out of proportion to humanitarian need.

Richard Brennan

Demand remains incredibly robust. Housing activity in the rest of the country was very robust, and the destruction in the Gulf states just wasn't enough to move the needle downward.

Bob Walters

The outlook for the semiconductor industry this year remains positive and demand for memory chips will be sustained.

Jeon Jeong Woo

They have made big strides no doubt about that, that's often what comes out of adversity. They are a better side than last year, but that's very evident. It remains to be seen how we foot it next to them.

Robbie Deans

That remains an open question. Some people might argue that it cannibalizes new book sales. Some argue that it spurs new book sales by making more books available and by bringing them to new locations.

Jeff Abraham

We seem to be looking at a threshold at which risk occurs and remains constant above this, and this appears to be around 60 decibels.

Stefan Willich

Mrs. Reagan remains at his side and is actively participating in his physical therapy sessions. She is encouraged by his progress, but has been advised by the doctors to remain cautious in her optimism.

Joanne Drake

Despite initial criticism of the federal government's slow response to Katrina, Bush's overall job approval rating remains essentially where it was at the end of August.

David J. Moore

What he is saying is that $80 billion remains a viable and reachable goal. He's not being as specific as to the timeline.

Jess Blackburn

The university remains committed to the safety of all of its students and the welfare of all of its students, but the university is not a mind reader.

Larry Pozner

ISC remains deeply apologetic that prior versions of BIND did not properly catch the configuration error that you appear to have built your business on.

Paul Vixie

Despite those solid gains, improvement haven't come as far and fast as we would have liked, and the achievement gains remains disturbing.

Lynn Olson

To ensure the most liquid exchange, that may [mean] more electronic trading, but that remains to be seen.

John Thain

If crude oil remains high, sugar prices will not be far behind.

James Ledesma

There's cold air somewhere. Whether it works its way around this part of the globe remains to be seen.

Art Lester

Whether or not the U.S. will accept any changes to its current role in managing the Internet remains to be seen, ... Let's just say there's now a lot of momentum to do so.

Robert Shaw

It remains to be seen if they're an asset or not. I know they're hard workers ..., but it's led to illegal activity.

Bob Kenney

The soft spot in our business remains the air activity.

Richard Braddock

A lot remains to be seen, but customers should be better off and not worse off.

Ryan Lippe

Our name has changed, but our commitment to providing quality, relevant aviation education has not. It remains as strong as ever.

Kirk Riedinger

There is a lot of work ahead of us, following both what happened and what did not happen last July...the way ahead to Hong Kong obviously is and remains the number one priority.

Pascal Lamy

By blocking its action, we hope to reduce inflammation, decrease pain and protect the joint, so the joint remains functional.

Christopher Evans

I am elated to have acquired such a monumental piece relating to one of the most adored men in American sports and cultural history. The fact that the item had not previously been located only added to my interest on behalf of our client. The 1934 Tour of Japan remains to date one of the most fabled of it's type in sports history.

David Hunt

Can we make money from this? That remains to be seen.

Alan Colman

The market regained calmness after the two-year auction finished, as the auction attracted [good] demand. But the market remains top-heavy.

Osamu Tamada

Although many of our members are charter members, our primary commitment remains the determination to provide a friendly and wholesome environment for the recently single person to meet and fellowship with other singles.

Gerald Pruitt

Could it begin again? It would need certain conditions and we can say that today those conditions do not exist. But the chance that a chain reaction could be triggered is not zero. The danger remains.

Yulia Marusych

Certainly much more remains to be found in Laos.

Bryan Stuart

Whether the FTSE can break through the key 5,800 barrier remains to be seen but there's little fundamental data around just now that could support an extended rally.

Matt Buckland

These stocks have a heavy weight in the indexes. The market remains fragile. The trend of the oil price isn't clear.

Jerome Forneris

In the absences of a decent time machine, fiction remains the most sturdy vehicle for visiting other eras.

Tom Nolan

The data show that this remains an enormously active marketplace, with new funds entering and exiting at a higher rate than ever before. But it is also an unforgiving environment, as the current record level of attrition shows.

Josh Rosenberg

With the newness wearing off, the shelter becomes old hat for some. We want to make sure that … everything remains peaceful.

Don Aaron

The long-term bull trend remains unchanged. It's just consolidating at the lower end.

Ronald Leung

The liquidity scenario remains very good.

Dhirendra Kumar

It has always been the prerogative of children and half-wits to point out that the emperor has no clothes. But the half-wit remains a half-wit, and the emperor remains an emperor.

Neil Gaiman

Our industry remains massive and very much a long-term, capital-intensive business.

Rex Tillerson

In some markets we're seeing reasonably strong deposit growth and pretty much across the board, commercial and industrial, middle-market business loans are fairly robust. It's a sign the economy remains fairly strong.

Mark Batty

This speaks very well of Las Vegas. It shows Las Vegas remains in the forefront of people's minds.

Terry Jicinsky

There's no long-term relief in sight for Dow Chemical. It remains a big target. But it doesn't mean it remains a vulnerable target.

James Kelleher

There should be no doubt that gold remains in a secular bull market.

Peter Grandich

We are talking. Our message remains -- give us our land.

Chenjerai Hunzvi

By not just deeming her as the wife of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. we pay homage to her. The history of this country remains incomplete without her rightful place in the annals of our scholarship.

Willie Pearson

How well this hotline does its job remains to be seen. Part of having a hotline is having people on the other end who are trained to separate out what is of immediate concern and what is of lesser concern.

Arthur Levin

Council's goal remains a long-term peaceful solution to the demonstration.

Tom Patterson

But there is a shortage. And that's one of the issues that were discussed at a recent legislative meeting. And that shortage still remains until we can at least get some programs a little bit further along into active mode, which we expect very shortly.

Tim Brown

I think it's safe to say that if the rain remains below average, then we won't see prices coming down much below current levels.

Hugo Pienaar

Many households already have a Web mail client. Anybody can purchase it. You no longer need a student or a teacher in the household, and you can install it on three machines. The price remains $149.

Parri Munsell

It was something of a surprise and shows (Miramax's) marketing mettle remains.

Anne Thompson

A major league baseball team is a collection of 25 youngish men who have made the major leagues and discovered that in spite of it, life remains distressingly short of ideal.

Roger Kahn

The situation is still brittle, even though the Gate Gourmet dispute is nearly over and BA is back working. There remains the possibility things will erupt again.

Chris Avery

We hope nevertheless that it might be possible to find someone in the remains of the houses.

Wendelin Weingartner

Our fixed cost structure remains a barrier to acceptable financial performance.

Ralph Hake

We welcome Mr. Bryan to the race. Attorney General Beebe remains focused on his plan for more and better jobs, affordable and accessible health care and nothing but the best for our children's education.

Zac Wright

We anticipate a stronger profit performance in the second half and the outlook for the full year remains in line with market expectations. Looking further ahead, the Board is confident that the Group's profits can be improved in the future.

Ron Sandler

In revolutions authority remains with the greatest scoundrels.

Georges Jacques Danton

Now that they have decided to not come so close to personal property, I don't think any of us in Grandview have as many issues to discuss with the developer. As long as the creek remains within its nature bed and as long as the tree cover and wood remain intact, the majority of our complaints have been answered.

Ron Hoover

I would say the outlook for the fourth quarter remains pretty strong, but the fact that they haven't actually confirmed that with a hard number is making the stock a bit jumpy.

Richard Windsor

All we need to do, to come back, is to beat Crowley and Alvarado to finish the first half of district (play) and then win all five games in the second half. Our goal all along is to make the playoffs. And that remains our goal.

Joni Vaughan

KBR remains a potential subcontractor for this important work.

Wendy Hall

It's very controversial, but the authorities eventually ruled that they are not Cuauhtemoc's remains.

National Institute

What is noticeable from the moves of the administration is that they are merely concerned with short-term responses that aim to elicit short-term public approval. Why is it that the oil monopolies and their profits remain untouchable? Why is it that the oil deregulation law remains untouchable?

Renato Reyes

But PC demand remains brisk, leading to a shortage of components. It's unlikely that the delay will have a major impact on the PC industry. We are not worried too much about it.

Tadashi Okamura

Anyone who listens to the 'Jerusalem' album will discover that Steve Earle remains a thoughtful singer who has chosen to incorporate current events into his poet's vision.

Danny Goldberg

What I do with distribution is I bring material into our stock. It remains as consigned. We don't pay for it until we use it. That's the flexibility I'm talking about.

Latchman Venkatesh

They had good gains on sales, which indicates good investment decisions ... their credit quality remains strong and their dividends are steady; all factors seem to indicate their life is OK.

Craig Maurer

We're close enough to a lot of top-50 teams so that if our standing remains or gets higher our ranking will move up. The girls relaxed, enjoyed the day, and they weren't grinding it so much today and were just relaxed. I'm very proud of their performance today and hopefully we can post another good number tomorrow to end our regular season on a positive note.

Polly Schulze

It's not so much if the Democrats do things, it's if the Republicans don't do things in terms of governing and then (Republican U.S. Rep. Tom) DeLay remains in the news in a negative way.

Gregory Rocha

Today we bury his remains in the earth as a seed of immortality. Our hearts are full of sadness, yet at the same time (full) of joyful hope and profound gratitude.

Pope Benedict Xvi

As far as they're concerned the remains have been recovered and will be returned. Any speculation about that video just adds to their pain and they're not going to be focusing on that.

Jay Gallagher

You're seeing a land grab attempt. As everybody rushes in, there will be incremental revenue gains but it remains to be seen what the gross profits will be.

Bill Fearnley

We're expending every effort to try to ensure that we protect the integrity of remains as we get this water out of the city. We're taking this very personally. This is a very deep emotional aspect of our work down there.

John Rickey

The department remains in regular consultation with the relevant committees in Congress and with other agencies within the intelligence community, including the CIA.

Lawrence Dirita

The prospect for some profit taking ahead of the weekend break doubtless remains.

Matthew Buckland

He remains critical but stable.

Ron Krumer

Olson's comments reaffirmed our views on the Fed's stance for further interest-rate hikes. The Fed's focus is on inflation. The dollar remains strong.

Masaki Fukui

The light truck market is one of the hottest segments in Australia and this new model will ensure Ford remains at the forefront of this important market.

Tom Gorman

Does mercury in vaccines cause autism in children? A definitive answer has proven elusive, and it remains so to this day. No one can say with certainty that thimerosal ... helped fuel an explosion in reported cases of autism, ADD, speech delay and other disorders over the past decade. But no one can say for certain that it did not.

David Kirby

The overall message of the report remains positive. The evidence that I have seen convinces me that we are poised to make dramatic gains against cancer in the near future.

Andrew C. Von Eschenbach

Even if demand goes up, the level of stocks remains very high, which weighs on prices.

Alexandre Kervinio

In light of the magnitude of the penalty, FHA will need to reassure lenders that FHA remains business friendly. Lenders have other choices and will go elsewhere if FHA business is perceived as too risky.

Howard Glaser

The level of discrimination against Muslim communities in Europe remains dangerously high.

Beate Winkler

POCKET, n. The cradle of motive and the grave of conscience. In woman this organ is lacking; so she acts without motive, and her conscience, denied burial, remains ever alive, confessing the sins of others.

Ambrose Bierce

What's important for people to realize is that arsenic is relatively mobile, so it's something we have to be relatively concerned about - how to manage this huge stock of CCA wood that remains to be disposed of.

Tim Townsend

We do not consider the withdrawal complete if one Israeli soldier remains in Gaza, especially with regard to the border crossings. Israel is suggesting moving the goods crossing to another position. We do not consider the withdrawal complete if this happens.

Nafez Azzam

Though you youngsters of the new qeneration dwell in towns infested with deceitful fate, the link of truth still remains.

Milarepa

The attitude at MSO remains business as usual, morale is good and the mood is one of pride in our product quality, the strength of our brand labels and the continued achievements of the company under challenging times.

Sharon Patrick

National rankings like this one lend credibility to Nevada's economic development and marketing efforts. As we continue to diversify, maintaining a friendly business environment remains a critical factor in distinguishing us from the rest.

Chuck Alvey

He remains my best friend of course and he wants the best for me, so he doesn't talk to me about it. We have our friendship and coach-athlete relationship.

Alexandre Despatie

The risk is that the dollar becomes stronger if there is any hint that the economy remains buoyant and the markets start to price in a greater probability of another rate hike in March.

Paresh Upadhyaya

The broad-based picture of dollar strength remains intact and further gains look very much in the cards.

Tom Fitzpatrick

It is vitally important that the Internet remains open and accessible to consumers and to service providers and remains the source of innovation it has been over the past two decades.

Gigi Sohn

Until one has loved an animal a part of one's soul remains unawakened.

Anatole France

All day long the door of the sub-conscious remains just ajar; we slip through to the other side, and return again, as easily and secretly as a cat.

Walter De La Mare

Our mission remains to balance long-term growth ambitions with ongoing return to shareholders, fully justifying their confidence in the group.

David Redshaw

(In golf) I think kids are peaking sooner but I don't know if that necessarily means they'll be able to carry that into their late 30's. I think that remains to be seen.

Duffy Waldorf

It remains her wish to have Bankhead become a part of the UW team in the future.

Lisa Stone

A man is never the same for long. He is continually changing. He seldom remains the same even for half an hour.

George Gurdjieff

The foundation remains firmly committed to its mission.

Patty Stonesifer

Something in-between is probably where we are. While the economy remains weak, inflation will gradually grind down. When the economy picks up, it's unlikely then that inflation will grind down further.

Stan Shipley

The Supreme Court only hears patent cases approximately 7% of the time. Therefore, the Supreme Court's rejection of the case was largely anticipated and the Appellate court decision remains in place. Merck has exhausted all avenues to regain U.S. exclusivity beyond February 2008, at which point generics are expected.

John Boris

The outlook remains poor, ... Production cutbacks at Ford and GM, mediocre personal income growth and record trade deficits all bode poorly for economic growth and jobs creation.

Peter Morici

We knew when the verdicts were reached that the battleground (for appeals) were the punitive damages. It's good that the liability remains with EMSA and the county of Schenectady. We'll study the decision to determine what to do next.

Kevin Luibrand

The industry news remains dire and the brief outlook given here for 2007 is worse than we had hoped.

Christian Maher

Australia remains hampered by currency and Europe does not look likely to see price strength given producer competition and overcapacity issues.

Chris Drew

The best way to lead Nevada is to know Nevada, and trust the people and their values, ... Nevada remains one of the last true beacons of Western freedom and opportunity, and I promise we will keep it that way.

Jim Gibbons

This year should be another good one for Asia. At the same time, inflation remains subdued.

Wanda Tseng

ESPN continues to expand its business. The climate for growth remains encouraging both locally and in the state.

Ed Durso

Despite their decision, downtown still remains the dominant legal center of the region.

Ed Wolverton

The events of last January were certainly tragic. Our sympathy remains with the people who were and continue to be affected.

Ed Saenz

He's certainly not polished. It remains to be seen if he can speak intelligently on any issue.

Ed Patru

The job market is firm, the outlook for hiring remains firm and hourly wages will pick up. Wages will grow enough to keep consumer spending up.

Zoltan Pozsar

Yes, it's true that he was found dead along with the bodies of his bodyguard and driver. We can't say anything at this moment. A lot remains unclear. We have yet to find everything out. We don't have enough information.

Zharmakhan Tuyakbai
