The quarter was fueled by major network product wins, our drive into the growing enterprise marketplace with network and portal services products, and significant inroads into the emerging wireless arena.

David Peterschmidt

It'll end up being a pretty significant hit. It's easy to forget that these natural disasters destroy wealth. ... You can't make that up.

James Glassman

We can't forecast it right now. Suffice it to say we have very significant work ahead of us.

Chris Mcneil

What we've seen from early indications is that as we've moved customers from dial-up to broadband, we've seen significant improvements in member life.

Joe Redling

The government has done exactly the right thing. Dollar-bond investors were looking for a significant cut in subsidies, and Indonesia delivered.

Scott Wilson

Casinos are spreading like wildfire, and it seems to be an entertainment option that a significant number of people engage in. That's just the reality of gaming that it is proving to be attractive to a great number of people.

Ron Porter

A great book-group book is more than just a great book. For (this list), we sought out 25 titles that encourage engagement, discussion and debate - though we certainly hope there's no significant bloodshed.

Jerome Kramer

Cree has focused significant sales efforts during the past several years toward the large and dramatically growing LED community in Asia. Cree Asia- Pacific is now investing in a new headquarters facility and expert personnel to deepen Cree's commitment to its Asian customers.

Mike Dunn

It's a significant challenge. There really isn't anything else like it. We are inventing something new.

Kathy Jacobs

While operating efficiency is important, it will take significant revenue growth over the next several years to bring optimal leverage to Amazon's scale-driven model, and revenue growth will be increasingly difficult to achieve.

Sara Farley

Despite significant interest in personalization, there is growing concern among consumers about the security of their personal data -- even with established, trusted brands. To address these concerns, we as an industry must be absolutely vigilant in our efforts to safeguard consumers' personal data.

Steve Johnson

One can only assume what is causing concern is his protesting and his activism, which is a significant worry for the rest of us if people who are involved in nonviolent, political dissent are being deported.

Marika Dias

The popularity of March Madness On Demand is a testament to the significant progress of streaming video over the past few years.

Peter Daboll

The judgement is very significant. It shows that the law works.

Sabu George

Today's moves set the stage for a more significant discussion with the UAW regarding cost savings, but have very minimal near-term cash flow impact.

Jonathan Steinmetz

Watchfire has taken its significant experience in the financial services market and developed a new banking compliance module to automate the cumbersome and daunting process of identifying online compliance risks specific to the banking industry for faster resolution and prevention.

Peter Mckay

The expectation was that the only problem with people on welfare was that they didn't have a job. What we found is that there is part of the population that has very significant barriers, real deficits that are stopping them from being successful.

Monty Martin

That's an extremely significant transaction.

Steve Mcdonald

We are very pleased as this extends our already significant land position in the region.

Brant Sangster

That's presenting a significant obstacle for the company in that space.

Tim Deal

It's a significant issue for the business. We need to do a much better job in preparing our real estate agents for the real world.

Tom Maeser

When you look at the first and second King Philip games and the first and second Notre Dame games you can see significant improvement. The players have developed both individually and as a team.

John Depasquale

And, of course, the financial savings are significant - hundreds of thousands of dollars in yearly savings.

Thomas Finlan

There are significant building improvements that will need to be made to accommodate the growth at the school. With the use of some creative strategies that can be implemented right away, we could eliminate some construction if we do the study sooner rather than later.

Dean Tistadt

It's not so much that they're expecting miracles [from technology] as much as they're expecting serious contribution and significant results. We see companies that are looking to grow fast coming back to recognizing that there's an investment in technology that they need to make.

Mark Mcdonald

We'll be looking at the budget, our governance structure and seed contracts. We've made significant progress already.

Greg Vlaming

These settlement agreements represent an equitable conclusion to one of the significant private civil litigation issues arising from actions and events that took place at the company prior to 2003.

Peter Urbanowicz

We think it imperative ... that China bring to bear the full weight of the significant influence it has with North Korea in order to secure the furtherance of our common goals: an end to all of North Korea's nuclear programs in a permanent and verifiable way.

Stephen Rademaker

That's a positive impact for us. We see it as providing significant breathing room.

Doug Hock

We believe Knotty Head has the potential to be a significant development in the Green Canyon area. With continued drilling success, our plan would be to sanction a development project within the next 24 months.

Charlie Fischer

It may not seem like much if you are unaccustomed to looking at that type data, but that's a significant increase. It means it was much hotter.

Brad Bryant

That's a pretty significant increase in that amount of time. It tells us that our kids are getting bigger.

Susan Streitz

We are continuing to make significant investments in research and development in order to bring important new products to market, positioning us well for long-term growth.

William Weldon

Mr. Hamilton will be a significant addition to our management team. Jeff will be a valued contributor to our future success.

Dan Jackson

Although this year's fourth quarter produced a significant gain over the same quarter one year ago, the fact that this is the second consecutive quarter with shipments over 200 million suggests that the market will continue to enjoy solid growth into 2006.

Ryan Reith

Another significant influence, other than Chabrier - is from Satie, who had a notable effect on Debussy, on myself, and, to tell the truth, on the majority of modern French composers.

Maurice Ravel

Obviously, this is a significant loss to the musical legacy of our nation and the history of Beverly Hills and its role in shaping American culture. Despite repeated pleas from local residents, Beverly Hills still has no mechanism to protect its historic and cultural treasures.

Ken Bernstein

Regardless of who you are or what group you're in, there is a significant gap between the care you deserve and the care you receive.

Reed Tuckson

It would be hard to quantify, but we'd experience significant congestion. Each of the tools we have shows great benefits.

Frank Quon

The effects on the home life (include) increased anxiety, nervousness, sleeplessness that could impact on their school work. And even more significant is the fact that it's an addictive substance.

Suzanne White

We believe that it belongs to gay white men. We don't see movies about the poor black girl who got infected by her significant other.

Carolynn Martin

It's a great feeling to be a part of this. Going down there and doing so well is really significant, because we want to go every year. I knew that if we did our best, we pretty much knew what was going to happen. We really work hard at it.

Sandra Camacho

We are looking at significant charges. There is always the possibility of additional arrests and additional charges.

John Hagerty

What I think was the most unfortunate thing was that it happened to be around the religious ceremony. Each ceremony has a significant meaning and have to be in succession. It was like having the pope cutting short his mass. We who participate in these ceremonies with a whole-heart commitment have a respect for that.

John Molina

We're doing some significant things different on offense, but there is enough carry-over that it didn't phase him. It's just one game, but he was just so excited to get out there and have a chance to play quarterback again.

Gary Pinkel

It's a significant drain on things we need to do in this county.

Jimmy Garris

The credit watch listing indicates that the ratings would likely be lowered if such a transaction were to proceed, given the strong expectation that Apollo or other potential financial buyers would use a significant amount of debt in any financing plans.

Kyle Loughlin

If one examines the workforce there is quite a significant number of people who would not qualify for the benefits.

Dwight Nelson

This move to California will allow us to gain significant momentum by being able to take advantage of a favorable environment for funding.

William Caldwell

From a genetic perspective, there are significant strain differences in their structure.

Brian Evans

As a rental, [The Carlisle] was a huge failure, operating at a significant cash loss.

Bill Meyer

We intend, if this person is convicted, to seek significant prison time.

Tandra Simonton

We knew there was already a significant disease burden, ... We didn't expect and didn't find that it was possible to eradicate the H5N1 infection and we are living with the consequences of that.

William Aldis

We had solid net earnings in PCs, strong profit performance in printing and imaging, and significant profit improvement in our measurement business. Clearly, our challenge is to convert order growth into stronger growth in revenue.

Lewis Platt

But other prudential safeguards may also be necessary to prevent significant reductions in capital.

John Dugan

We're still going to have a significant presence in Alabama.

Nancy Young

We are pleased to announce that we will again offer vendors the same attractive package of significant benefits to ensure a catalogue of the highest quality for the fourth annual National Yearling, Weanling and Broodmare Sale.

David Chester

Recent accounting-related legislation is having a significant impact at a time when the pool of qualified prospects is declining due to the 150-hour rule instituted by most states. As a result, many hiring managers have more work than they can handle with current staffing levels and cannot find enough capable new hires.

David L. Dunkel

The latest ANZ job advertisements data suggest that there will be no improvement in the labor market over the next few months, with little prospect of significant growth in employment and with the unemployment rate likely to trend higher.

Tony Pearson

Penn is just a very good team. Although I felt Scott did some good things during that game, there were other significant factors besides his individual performance that keyed the loss.

Jerry Schmitt

Cell phone ownership is becoming ubiquitous; local markets that lagged in cell phone penetration experienced a significant amount of growth in the past three years.

Bob Cohen

We've got a lot of people gathering. We're going to raise a lot of money, we're going to make things happen. We're going to make as significant a contribution as we can.

Michael Crow

Clearly, the fact that a leadership cadre would take that step, that was significant, ... They also became a bridge for him to the broader culture.

Tom Owen

The chronic pain market will likely undergo a major sea change over the next few years and there are significant investment opportunities yet to be recognized.

Adam Greene

We also have further sharpened our focus on the Blue Harbor Resort in Sheboygan, Wis. We intend to increase our emphasis on group business to build mid-week revenues, and recently hired a new general manager who has significant experience in that market segment. Although the ramp-up for this property will continue slowly, we feel optimistic about its longer-term prospects.

John Emery

I think for the industry, it is also the most significant because it has the potential -- if litigation gets out of control -- to really increase costs a lot.

Larry Levitt

It's great news to us. We get a significant amount of requests for bed and breakfasts.

Laurie Paolicelli

All of the big players with significant beefs were made happy by the (BRAC) commission.

Barrett Kaiser

[The EPA approach] combines significant reductions in emissions with protection for energy security and consumers, ... But these senators now seek to disrupt the program.

Scott Segal

The decline in the prices paid component is good news. It looks as if we're seeing some moderation in pricing pressures, but not a significant drop.

Gary Thayer

I've been here for 20 years, and this is the most significant thing I've seen.

Nancy Hill

By joining forces with Cablevision, Home Network gains access to a significant concentration of homes in key major metropolitan markets in the Northeast corridor.

Tom Jermoluk

We have significant icing in Connecticut and interior Massachusetts. That, with freezing rain, then snow, makes for definite concern.

Michael Dion

This (upcoming) search year is going to be very significant in the decision as to where that goes. In the history of social change, there has always been some element of legal accountability that has had to be a part of the process. Hopefully, that doesn't have to happen.

Floyd Keith

Best Buy has been our most significant partnership. We're seeing a fair amount of people who are new to the Internet and a lot of existing AOL subscribers coming to Prodigy because of these partnerships.

David Trachtenberg

By that point, most of the refining capacity was back on line. You were getting very significant imports from Europe. These are things that knock the legs out from under a market.

John Kingston

The digital revolution is far more significant than the invention of writing or even of printing.

Douglas Engelbart

I thought that everybody would be blaming FEMA, the federal government. But there is a significant amount of blame to place on state and local government. That is probably going to increase as time goes on.

Neil Newhouse

Now its recommended at age 1, so they've dropped the age we should be administering it. It can be a pretty significant disease in some children. Three out of 1,000 who contract the disease may have liver failure, which can lead to death.

Dr. Rajiv Kaddu

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

We've definitely had some significant beach erosion. The longer the storm sits, the worse the damage.

Scott Petersohn

It concerns me when our schools are making significant progress from year to year, and yet are identified as program improvement, ... We should be celebrating the progress the schools are making.

Jane Burke

There is a significant focus on using RFID in pharmaceutical manufacturing because of the FDA's interest in using RFID tags to help combat diverting and counterfeiting.

Jeff Woods

The current staff is truly talented and dedicated. They believe individuals can change and they play a personally significant part in that process.

Warden Melton

As I have frequently stated, our goal is to build the premier exploration company in Nevada. This initiative represents a significant step in that direction. The combination of these companies should appeal to a larger group of investors and should offer the potential for more share appreciation than any one company on its own.

Rob Mcewen

I'm confident we will continue - and quite possibly increase  - the quality of services and save both cities a significant amount of money.

Bill Dwyer

The agreement has had very significant consequences.

Malcolm Bell

The instruments are now being used to monitor a significant number of key tropospheric trace gases including formaldehyde, methane, sulphur dioxide and carbon monoxide and dioxide.

John Burrows

Barbara Fleischman's contributions in time and energy to this institution have been significant and selfless.

John Biggs

There's no question that they're facing challenges right now, I think we all feel very confident that it has and it can make a significant contribution to the Catholic dialogue in the United States.

Ned Mcgrath

We had at least four competing bids on almost every job, and we found everyone we used to be superior craftsmen. We think the home is significant to this town. It was good for these contractors to see this house.

Katherine Brown

After examining the growth of the market and the status of the competition, we've decided to build a facility that is significant in both scope and quality. We intend to lead the currently underserved downtown gaming and entertainment market and today's announcement reflects that commitment.

Daniel R. Lee

Directors' fiduciary duties require significant time. It's not simply putting it on your résumé and phoning in for the meetings.

Ann Yerger

These goals are significant and feasible.

Larry Wise

It's a very significant problem, and people on the north shore are now beginning to understand. This is happening all along the northern Gulf Coast. Homeowners are really not aware that these cold fronts can do significant damage.

Greg Stone

This partnership gives GE Consumer Finance the opportunity to execute our growth strategy in Asia by gaining a significant platform from which to expand in Taiwan.

Yoshiaki Fujimori

Seven cases of criminal mischief, ranging from water damage to the interior of a building (significant damage) to a street sign being left on someone's lawn.

George Meyer

Maybe the R&D growth isn't as fast as the overall growth of the company, but it's still significant growth. We want to award companies that do that.

Ralph Hellman

It's sloppy and it's chaotic, but the degree to which it improves precision in the retrieval process can be quite significant.

Brad Allen

In the fourth quarter, as in the rest of 1999, we focused on two significant objectives -- serve the world's largest audience through integrated communications, commerce and media services, and provide the most effective interactive marketing platform for advertisers and merchants to connect with our users.

Jeff Mallett

So, it's actually a growing area of the business and Intel want to get into that area because that's significant growth there - and probably faster growth than their core microprocessor business.

David Wu

?We want to encourage other companies that have significant business assets in this area--as well as those that do not--to join us in a massive relief effort for our fellow citizens who will be suffering in the days and weeks ahead.

Steve Odland

Brett and Digby have certainly made a significant contribution to the Carlton Football Club, both on and off the field, since joining Carlton in late 2003.

Grant Williams

An influenza pandemic has a very significant potential to cause rapid increases in death and illness among all age groups and even among the healthy populations.

Anthony Griffin

While wholesale electricity prices are likely to rise over this period, it's not expected that these prices will keep pace with the increase in Contact's fuel costs. There will be significant pressure on the company's trading margins.

Grant King

The program remains controversial, in part because of the significant investment in plants and associated tax benefits by the owners.

Jodi Hecht

For pretty much the last 38 days, there was significant rainfall going on somewhere in the state.

Derek Wroe

This is another significant step in monetizing our non-core assets and further sharpening our focus on our core content creation and distribution businesses and library in a digital marketplace. We are pleased to sell our studio facilities to a buyer committed to expanding the film industry of British Columbia.

Steve Beeks

We endured many significant challenges in the second quarter, in particular, a soft U.S. retail market for athletic footwear and apparel. Despite these challenges, we met our bottom line expectations as we began to see an impact from our efforts to control expenses in a weak retail environment.

Philip Knight

We realized the community was facing significant barriers.

Hamse Warfa

Overall, the first quarter numbers point to a positive start for the U.S. venture market in 2006. The renewed IT activity is a sign that investors are recognizing the significant potential of new information technology innovations and are supporting them once again. But investors also remain committed to existing portfolio companies as the predominance of the capital investing shows.

Steve Harmston

In all likelihood, it will have to spend more and at the same time make significant, politically sensitive cuts in the basing infrastructure and the purchase of new systems.

J. Collins

However, there is no doubt that there will be some significant impacts and residents need to be prepared for some disruption and inconvenience. It is unfortunate that local council tax payers have been caught up in a national dispute which is outside the direct control of Bristol City Council.

Dan Norris

That is significant for a number of reasons. If you add and additional driver, it costs you more money generally. If you simply add a spouse, it doesn't.

Alphonso David

Stay-at-home parents like Marge perform many household services that would be expensive to replace, and consequently have a significant need for life insurance.

Marge Simpson

Lance has been used in corporate advertising relative to the BMS brand, not in product advertising. We believe there is a significant difference in advertising that focuses on corporate brand building, or disease awareness, versus individual product advertising.

Tony Plohoros

It is such a departure, free agency is a significant shift, so that will be a discussion for another time.

Brendon Gale

The most significant finding is the nature of the surface of the comet. We now know that it isn't covered in a hard crust. It's a fine-grained, loosely glued layer of organic powder and ice. You couldn't make a snowball on Tempel 1.

Peter Schultz

India is a significant market for us in two respects. Over the past two years, it has emerged as our fastest growing market - one in which we have the leadership position with more than 58,000 seats and a set of world-class partners. Further, we are expanding our R&D and customer support hub.

Dave Gould

It's a significant award, it is by no means a disappointment to the plaintiffs, and it certainly isn't a happy day back in Philip Morris and R.J. Reynolds' headquarters.

Madelyn Chaber

Sometimes when you're 3-4 you're playing for pride, but there was still something significant to play for. Our players knew that.

Jay Locey

We did not receive a significant number of requests from customers who wanted to cancel existing reservations.

Tom Donahue

The rally is based on the Nigeria attacks. It is quite a significant amount. The market was used to Nigerian outages, but these attacks appear to be gathering speed and are much more worrying.

Alexandre Kervinio

There is such a significant difference between the special census and where we are that I don't think that's an explanation.

Jennifer Albers

If I had that much lower risk of getting breast cancer, that would be significant to me.

Michelle Schuppe

It really was the Confederate currency that got it started. Dick's contribution was one of the first that was significant enough for us to know the Atlanta History Center was going to be able to acquire Sherman's orders.

Seth Kaller

We have a significant number of stores in the New York area.

Andrew Mastrangelo

We were very disappointed. We felt it was a fair and equitable agreement. We believe it provided significant advancements in each of the areas our bargaining committee told us was important to members.

Barb Anderson

I believe we've defined eligibility for that program based on outdated attitudes about what people with significant disabilities are capable of doing in the workplace.

Andrew Imparato

We made substantial progress on several fronts during the first quarter. We generated good sales growth, as double-digit gains for blades and razors and Braun more than offset softness in certain battery markets and a significant unfavorable exchange effect.

Michael Hawley

With our significant presence already in the region, and the fact that California is one of the largest issuers of municipal bonds in the country, it just made sense for us to have a trading desk in the state. We have a total of 68 branch offices in California, Nevada and Hawaii, and we also run a public finance office in Los Angeles, so we know these markets well.

John Harrington

The company is still facing significant integration requirements over the next two years. We believe that 2006 will prove a challenging year for the company.

Matthew Smith

Unless we see significant movement on their side, we seem to be on course for a strike. We'll strike if we have to and we'll strike as long as it takes.

Matthew Nerzig

Both of the break-ins probably occurred during late-night or early-morning hours, and most likely involved kids. But we have very few leads, and they are nothing significant. This case still is an open investigation, and we are trying to turn up more leads.

Capt. Dave Sears

A billion dollars a year is a lot of money. You can't move that kind of oil out to the high seas without some pretty significant, high-level cooperation in the Nigerian government and the military.

Princeton Lyman

IBM Lotus Notes and Domino represent a significant part of the corporate email landscape. With today's announcement, Nokia is addressing that market, providing companies and channel partners with a cost-effective, secure and scalable choice for mobile email and beyond.

Dave Grannan

There's a significant portion of people out there not sure on a day-to-day basis where they stand. That affects consumer confidence and affects consumers' desire to take on more credit.

Allen Grommet

If concluded, we believe the merger would add significant value to shareholders.

Lorna Tilbian

(Cobb) is Republican and it's significant.

Phil Gingrey

I hesitate to call it landmark. Other people have called it landmark ... but it is one of the first times that a jury has found in favor of a morbidly obese person based on disability and awarded significant compensation.

Col. Michael Rossi

Last quarter we won seven significant deals and we think we have three more we will win in the next month or two, so we have had a big uplift in our deal flow.

Steven Bruny

When we made those decisions, we didn't know exactly what the economy was going to do, but it was our expectation that the economy would weaken. Our marketing and promotion budget is pretty comparable to recent years, so again we're not doing any significant additional spending behind the promotions.

Peggy Palter

They are working extremely long hours often. They really don't have much time for politics in this culture. You can't win by mobilizing Hispanics in Houston yet, but they are, year by year, becoming a more significant voting block in this city.

Richard Murray

Justin is a young player who we anticipate will play a significant role on our team. He brings a good deal of NHL experience to our group of young forwards, and has demonstrated that he can develop into a top-level NHL player.

Jim Rutherford

No question that Microsoft has made significant inroads compared to where they were just a couple of years ago _ which was no where.

Charles Golvin

We've seen a lot of significant evidence lately that the global economy is picking up, particularly in export orders. There's a lot of evidence coming in that things overseas look good.

Robert Mellman

You're going to see very soft numbers for employment and significant ripple effects from housing.

Asha Bangalore

We expected a difficult comparison this year, and this has been compounded by the significant reduction in inventories and increased seasonality of purchasing patterns at Toys 'R' Us.

Alan Hassenfeld

When we are not honest, we are cut off from a significant resource of ourselves, a vital dimension that is necessary for unity and wholeness.

Clark Moustakas

We are facing a number of significant short-term issues, including an uncertain global economic environment, ongoing weakness in some parts of Asia and Latin America, and continued price pressures in semi conductors.

Louis Gerstner

It's a fool's errand to expect the oil companies to invest in any significant way.

George Sterzinger

I don't myself think that increasing it to 28 days is going to make a very significant amount of difference.

Lord Carlile

Education is the first major investment for many young adults, and their ability to secure access to it, without barriers, is a critical first step in building credit histories. Our insight, research and development have placed us in a position to effect a significant change in the way this market operates.

Raza Khan

We have a significant cyber risk in this country.

Andy Purdy

In an effort to address the concerns of city agencies and to utilize our site as an enhancement to the Mill River Corridor Project, there is a significant expense planned in the area of landscaping and site screening.

Richard Warren

Significant threats to public health.

The Assembly

The rates will increase in 2006, but the increase will be gradual. So, we don't expect a significant pushback from borrowers because of the increase in rates.

Jeff Majewski

The people of Wright deserve every bit of help they can get, and I hope that this federal declaration may provide a significant part of that.

Dave Freudenthal

It will be a significant event for Washington, and for the entire western U.S..

Danny Mercer

It's a poor (Boots) statement. The bulls will cling to the hope of a bid, but will anyone commit significant funds to buy a retailer until one thinks that the market has bottomed?

Richard Ratner

This is an area we feel very strongly about. Aluminum wiring in a house presents a very serious potential fire hazard. We feel that there are a significant number of homeowners who have aluminum wiring and who haven't yet taken steps to make their homes safe.

Scott Wolfson

If that's true, that's very, very troubling, and that should lead to significant disciplining of police officers.

Howard Safir

We've got the fact that the Cadillac was going 45 miles per hour in the fast lane of the highway. ... That is a significant piece of evidence.

Steve Wolfson

Certainly, no one was thinking they were going to pass the most significant legislation of the past 50 years.

Marc Morgenstern

Florida is one of the fastest-growing states in the country, and part of our commitment to our customers is to ensure electricity will be there when they need it. This significant investment in Polk County is critical to accommodate the region's continuous rapid growth.

Bill Habermeyer

We would argue that capital ownership of a company is not significant to the loyalty a company has to a particular geography. When a foreign company acquires a U.S. company, vs. when a U.S. company acquires a U.S. company, there's often less job cuts because of less duplication.

Nancy Mclernon

It is now more significant in the air business which requires us to lease planes for a short period of time to meet a significant spike in our air business.

John Alden

[Bush] understood that his legacy might be that North Korea became a significant nuclear weapons state on his watch, ... realized this was a national security and a political problem.

Wendy Sherman

All will see significant playing time. Ally could be our starting shortstop.

Patty Evans

Joining Borland at this time is a tremendous opportunity. Software organizations are facing significant challenges in order to be more responsive to business needs and I believe Borland is the right company to help address these challenges.

Tod Nielsen

The ruling itself really had no details that were completely surprising to anyone. The final ruling won't come for at least a year here. So we have a period here through the summer where the stock will have no significant news other than fundamental earnings announcements.

Larry Seibert

In Ohio, it's particularly significant because that's the largest city in Ohio, and that is a key battleground state (in presidential elections), so Democrats clearly scored big wins out there.

Bill Schneider

First crop hay was abundant, but yields for 2nd, 3rd and 4th cuttings have seen significant reductions. I think overall there may be about a 25 percent drop in the alfalfa crop here, which includes a reduction caused by fairly extensive winterkill in some fields.

David Fischer

Retrofits and clean fuels offer clear benefits for regional air quality and provide cleaner environments for children as they travel to and from school. The Adams County District 12 project would not have been as successful without Pauline's leadership and significant personal contribution to EPA's National Clean Diesel Campaign.

Carol Campbell

By bundling services, we feel we've got a very significant opportunity to raise our average revenue per user.

Jerry Mckenna

I don't see anything big enough to spark significant demand growth anytime soon. Expectations are being scaled back.

Jung Kyun Sik

That is a significant level.

Julian Roberts

It's got to be significant enough and advantaged enough that it would make a meaningful difference.

Adam Dener

Pay phones provide a valuable public service, ... Not everyone can afford a wireless phone or can get access to their wireless service in remote areas. For a significant portion of the population pay phones are a necessity.

Janee Briesemeister

It's very common in paranoid schizophrenics to have areas of significant impairment and islands where cognitive skills are preserved.

Mark Mills

Painful as it may be, a significant emotional event can be the catalyst for choosing a direction that serves us-and those around us - more effectively. Look for the learning.

Louisa May Alcott

But even when liability has been imposed, it has ultimately been paid by a combination of corporate directors and officers liability insurance. Settlements in the Enron case may indicate a change to history because individual directors at Enron had to make significant payments from their personal assets.

Derek Hong

A significant increase in customer demand translated into higher-than-expected order growth and strong financial performance.

Mike Splinter

This event created a complete blackout of high-frequency communications on the day-lit side of Earth, which included the entire U.S. and basically anywhere the sun was shining at this time. Communications used by emergency services along the Gulf Coast may have experienced problems due to this flare. Low-frequency navigation systems may also have experienced a period of significant degradation.

Larry Combs

It is great news that DNV is reaping rewards after significant investment in this area of the business and we are delighted to be working with CAN on a project which we believe plays a significant role in delivering Talisman's future business aspirations.

Donald Brown

This level of investment makes Pinnacle a major force in the renewal of downtown St. Louis, and it will further strengthen our market position. After examining the growth of the market and the status of the completion, we've decided to build a facility that is significant in both scope and quality.

Daniel R. Lee

It's a significant advantage. Being first to the market, EMC gets to define the boundaries.

Bob Zimmerman

We were plagued by inherent time delays in the process, and we were paying significant amounts of money for a less than optimum result. Our legacy system did not offer the ability to implement speech recognition on that platform.

Don Reed

The company is facing a delicate balance between capturing the revenue growth in these emerging markets and keeping it up on the bottom line. The market share gains were significant in the growth areas, but that's less profitable growth.

John Slack

We were making significant progress to realize the goals set some 20 years ago for an arts center that promoted the region's cultural groups and served a diverse community.

Mark Fields

The idea that technology can make significant differences and positive benefits in individual lives is something that really captures people's attention. We're now in a position, in collaboration with the academic research community, to do creative things and have such an impact.

Tom Healy

While we certainly have more work to do in the area of foster care and adoption, we already see a significant improvement in reducing the amount of time it takes to adopt a child in foster care.

Gary Kleeblatt

We came here with the objective of making significant progress so we could be in the position of concluding this agreement by the spring. We have made much progress in many chapters, but still have much work ahead.

Barbara Weisel

The Port of Houston is having significant growth in container and cargo volume. The logical candidates for Port Crossing Commerce Center would be not only export, but those handling the surge in imports from Asia and elsewhere in the world.
