Sarah Vandish

The other thing to keep in mind is, it's not just about uptime. It's also about performance and response time. Some of these solutions are slower to refresh. All the vendors need to focus not only on uptime but also on performance.

Liz Herbert

I know there's going to be a lot of people out there anxious to see me fail or whatever, so they can say he's not going to be the same or he's going to be a little slower, maybe he's lost a step. I'm not going to feed into that.

Jamal Lewis

The euro rallied from mid-May to early June on the slower U.S. growth story.

Bob Lynch

One thing about the NBA is that it's definitely not a faster pace. Duke has prepared me well. There's nothing here that I haven't seen already. It's not faster.

David Orr

After a slower first half year, we are pleased to see growth across Philips has picked up in the third quarter as we improved our profitability.

Marcus Thomas

I have to worry about Bellamy Road and I have to worry about the horses behind me. But I don't feel any pressure. If Bellamy Road goes in :46, he'll be five in front, but if he goes in :47 or slower I'll be right on top of him.

Alan Ross

We are running a rather large business and we need to look like we?re running it properly. The slower we go, the more things back up.

However, the positive initiatives happening at Purdue and in the Purdue Research Park may tend to offset any negatives from the auto industry.

Bill Connors

The good news from market perspective is that if the economy is slower, all else equal, that takes pressure off the Federal Reserve.

Neal Soss

We're just getting a ton of reps. Sometimes if you get caught without a backup you just keep going and going and going.

Glenn Loury

Ever notice that anyone going slower than you is an idiot, but anyone going faster is a maniac?

Victor Mayeron

It's just a slower pace, ... You don't beep horns at lights. It's pleasant living.

When you play this late, you get a little bit of a slower start on recruiting so we're going to try and get out and see some players and start bringing people in after the break. It's really not much of a break that way.

Patrick Yau

The bowlers sent down a lot of slower balls and off-cutters, (but) the batters used the short boundary well.

Alan Dawson

Going uphill, you do have to compensate by running slower. Rather than checking your watch (on a hill), go for the same perceived effort as you ran on the flats. I find the best way to do this is to monitor your breathing. If you are breathing more heavily going up the hill, shorten your stride.

Jeff Galloway

They are a ways away from hitting on all cylinders. There is a healthy core, but they are continuing to divest some of their slower growth areas.

Dan Popowics

Monetary tightening, a strong currency and tamer U.S. demand should spell slower economic growth ahead, calming inflation fears.

Sarah Konrad

The main concern regarding Ericsson is its mobile systems division, which is experiencing slower growth in the U.S. and marginally disappointing growth in Europe.

Trycee Brown

In the tournament, most teams aren't going to be playing 75-, 80-point games. The games are slower, more conservative and we need to work on our man-to-man defense. We're capable of playing it, but we've got to fine-tune.

Joe Katich

That's been an ongoing thing since I moved into the borough years ago. It still concerns me. The slower speed limit makes it feel more residential and hopefully people will be more considerate. We all know if the speed limit is 35, they'll go 45. Hopefully with 25, they won't go any faster than 35.

Marjorie Adams

There is no longer a shadow of doubt that the U.S. economy is downshifting rapidly; the only question is how deep the slowdown goes, ... We do not expect to see recession in 2001, but we certainly expect to see significantly slower growth with continued moderating inflation.

Sherry Cooper

The top-line growth rate was generally slower than expected, but that doesn't appear to have held profits back.

Steve has indicated to me his progress has been slower than he would have liked. But he is very positive and optimistic and has every intention of getting better and resuming his NHL career.

I think to grow rapidly is absolutely fundamental, you need capital, you need investment. To grow off your own profits is a much slower build, and I think also as a designer you need a business back-up, the business acumen.

Amanda Wakeley

I knew I had to stay cautious and watch out. He was a little slower than I was expecting. But it was not an easy fight at all.

Vladimir Klitschko

[When an analyst asked whether slower growth in bad debt during the first quarter was] sort of a fluke, ... You know, this is a volatile business. You have some months that are up and some months that are down and what you've got to do is kind of look and say, 'What is the trend, and what do you feel about it?' .

Jack Bovender

I'm really happy. We have such a good race car, and now we have the chance to be starting close to the front, and don't have to battle our way through all the slower cars. Burt did a great job, and hopefully we can just get a good clean start and he turns the car over to me in good shape and we can be there at the end for a good result.

Brian Frisselle

The stronger rand and a slow start to the year are likely to be the biggest drivers of slower growth in January.

Nazmeera Moola

We see high growth with very low inflation. These aren't mutually exclusive. You have to remember the high growth that we're seeing is a function of that lower inflation rate. If we had inflation at 3 or 4 percent, growth would be a lot slower.

Matthew Alexy

The slower you take it off, the more likely you will be able to keep it off. If you lose more than two pounds a week, you're taking off fluid and muscle mass, as well. That's precisely what you don't want to lose.

Leslie Fontenot

He told me I would heal slower and I would be more prone to infection. But I've been through three surgeries already and I've never had any trouble with infections or anything like that.

Rob Carnell

There were and still are indications that a high pressure building over Greenland is going to expand and force cold air to be pushed back over New England and The Midwest. However, it is appears to be slower in development than originally anticipated. So the moderate weather could continue for another week or two.

Patrick Mccoy

It's very bad news. Numbers such as this put a dent in the view that exports can pick up to counter a slower consumer sector. Growth this year isn't going to be that great.

Gavin Redknap

The index remains below 50, so employment in manufacturing is still shrinking, but at a slower rate than in February.

Nazmeera Moola

That is not to say that long government bonds won't go up in price if the 'system' suffers some elimination, slower growth, or to be frank, a recession in 2006.

Bill Gross

It's the climate. If it was cold and not as humid, I would probably be doing slower music. Tropical music is daytime music. Happy music.

Everybody could benefit from eating slower and taking extra walks.

Tiana Lee

It was amazing just the scope and how sweeping the whole thing is. It's a big epic - tons of actors, tons of extras, explosions. They move a lot slower obviously than they do [on TV] so you're just doing a couple of pages a day, so that was interesting to get used to.

Mark Consuelos

This has been kind of a slower election for us so far. I'm not sure everybody knows about the change.

Stephanie Thompson

If there was a surprise (in the GDP report), it was that the deflator and core PCE were revised up a bit. So, slightly slower growth than expected, although it's still a relatively robust 4.1 percent.

David Durrant

When somebody, usually a teacher, says, 'The child is a little slower than we'd like to see with reading,' or a mother says, 'All my other kids will read a book at any opportunity, and this one doesn't like to read. He likes sports.' Then you find out sometimes that the children have a visual problem.

Lisa Hall

We are going to be jumping around a bit with the corners, the electrical and the water systems. It will be a little slower going in the beginning, but as we get into the swing of things, it will move faster.

Todd Goldsmith

You're never too old to play. You can have a youth ? fast (speed-wise) ? who appears to have the advantage over someone somewhat slower.

Jamal Qureshi

Men are slower to recognize blessings than misfortunes.

Titus Livius

It may be a neighbor, a granddaughter, or a service provider in the community. We may be moving slower than some would like, but we are moving in the right direction. I just ask that people be patient.

Diane Black

People that guessed a slower time were sent off first. That way, we wouldn't have to spend a lot of time at the top, waiting for everyone to finish.

Kris Lebedoff

We expect a slower pace. We will work hard in practice to get ready.

Christian Mathew

I usually like to take it out fast and stay out in front. Mei, she's completely different. She'll start out slower and then creep up on you.

The good news is that it's a slower rate of increase than last year. But it's still substantially higher than where wages are going.

Gary Claxton

Clearly, earnings are slower this year and there's not a new catalyst, but we still like the company longer-term.

Joan Storms

I think when we have storms people will go slower but I think some of these crashes were just inexperienced drivers.

James Mccormack

The balance of risk is shifting from inflation to slower growth.

Robert Mcgee

Less energy in a given volume tells you that the universe should be expanding slower, but because it is not, what that means is that energy is somehow increasing.

Hitoshi Murayama

The correction somewhat mutes inflation concerns. The market is looking in one direction today and that's for slower growth.

Bill Davison

The production increase is more than what traders were expecting. We are going to see some more output in non-OPEC countries such as Mexico and Norway, and the second quarter is typically a period of seasonal slower demand, so those all those factors will play into an easing in oil prices.

Jordan Horoschak

The overall picture in September is one of negligible decline in manufacturing activity. Production registered significant growth, with nine industries reporting greater output. Deliveries of commodities were somewhat slower. However, commodities appear to be in ample supply as once again the short supply list is vacant.

Norbert J. Ore

They've been slower than their competitors to take the costs out of the distribution model. They went into the first quarter at a disadvantage from a cost perspective.

Richard Gardner

The market is seasonal, so unless you have a wide network of routes, you can't spread your costs during the slower season.

Doug Mcvitie

Initially it begins a little slower, and it begins to build over a cycle of elections, over a period of a couple of elections.

Aidan White

(It's a) slower pace, people get to know each other. (It's a) more relaxed life (and) people were more cordial. It didn't take as long as I thought to … walk into a public setting and there (are) people you know, who said hello and looked at you in the eye.

Catalina Nocon

The real story here is the (slower) growth of consumption in the quarter.

Kevin Logan

Cache County is growing at a much slower pace than other counties in the state.

John Mathews

A lot of his stuff was a lot slower, so there was a period of time where we were all worried. I was really worried because I was like man, this is nothing like our old stuff.

Aaron Stern

We're promoting fall tourism. It's one of the slower times of the year. We're focusing on different groups, and one of the key groups we're looking at are couples without children, because children go back to school in the fall.

Danielle Courtenay

My sense is they are off to a slower start than they might have anticipated.

Peter Kreisky

We are gratified that the quarter's results confirm that consumer demand remains strong for Microsoft products...but it is critical to note that our growth has slowed for each of the last four quarters and we are likely to experience slower growth for the balance of calendar 1998.

Greg Maffei

We think the industry is going to be slower in the first quarter, if not the first half, than we originally planned. There's clearly downward momentum right now caused by higher interest rates, higher fuel prices. Probably the biggest factor is consumer confidence drop in December. The industry operates on momentum and we think it will take time for that momentum to turn around.

Ron Zarrella

There is still very good growth opportunities, although slightly slower than what they were the past couple of years, ... There's still a good demand for technology out there.

Wendy Abramowitz

It implies a slower U.S. economy, and so over time I think this will turn out to be bullish for the fixed-income markets.

Nicholas Horsley

If you have a hamstring or knee injury, you can still do your workout at a slower pace on the beach, ... It's just much more forgiving on the injury when you're running on the beach.

Mike Reilly

But in our experience it's not unusual to have either construction delays or delays in the planning. There are a number of legitimate reasons that have resulted in slower disbursements or slower project completions.

David Warner

That's a challenge for our rehab specialists because our patients are more fragile and they work at a slower pace.

Lisa Shirk

I don't think investors really appreciate the economies of scale inherent in enterprise software, especially now since it's a much slower growth business. The industry needs to consolidate.

Bert Hochfeld

We will even accommodate a single person who wants to be alone and hunt by himself. Not only have they hunted their whole lives, but they work at a slower pace and can relate to the customers.

Dennis Jones

Toyota tends to have more products in each segment. Honda goes much slower -- for example, it's not in pickups at all. But they watch and when they execute a product, they do it almost flawlessly so they immediately have a leader in the segment.

Tom Libby

Our anticipated results for our second quarter and the remainder of fiscal 2006 reflect smaller year-over-year increases in earnings than we had anticipated, primarily due to continuing production delays in several markets that have postponed deliveries, a slower recent sales pace, higher cancellation rates, more pronounced use of concessions and incentives, and material price increases.

Ara Hovnanian

If the next premier after reform-minded Koizumi raises concerns about slower progress in structural reforms or debates about the consumption tax, it would be negative for Japanese stocks.

A domestic-demand-driven economic recovery is continuing, albeit at a slightly slower pace in Q3, ... Strong corporate earnings are fueling capital spending and spilling over to the household sector, supporting consumption.

Seiji Adachi

A slower artist could charge $90 and a faster artist can charge between $100 to $150. You can make $7,000 in a month.

Jason Sorrow

If the U.S. economy slows down, U.S. demand for domestic goods will slow down. The tension between slower overall growth and increased need for exporters will result in more companies asking for protection.

Andrew Bernard

The Fed is concerned about inflationary pressures, and more concerned about energy prices feeding through to core inflation than feeding through to (slower) consumption.

David Sloan

The flow (of traffic) seems to be slower than it used to be, so I think they're working.

Larry Beckwith

I'm going to go out slower than I anticipated.

Rosie Jones

The market is speculating that slower growth in China, sufficient commodity supplies in the U.S. and moderating U.S. growth may mean that the recent run-up in commodity prices is overdone and that we are due for a correction in the not-too-distant future.

Bart Melek

Over the long term, there is a recovery going on, but I think it's slower than a lot of people would like it to be. On the face of it I'd say it's just one day where things happen to be a little stronger than others.

Ray Rund

The process, while moving slower, is continuing. We are striving to make some deliveries in the coming days.

Peter Conte

They had kept us off when we were hitting the ball up but not hitting it out. The kids were getting solid hits. They are getting a hold of it when [the pitch] is slower because then they can see it, but that also means that then they can be more patient and disciplined when they are hitting. And they are getting better at it.

April Stary

They are sweeping up now. Everything is capped and plugged and cemented all the way up. It just went a lot slower than they thought it would.

Greg Flores

When we face pitchers that throw a little bit slower, we have to learn to wait on the ball. Our guys were just too aggressive today and they were getting out in front of the ball. I'd have to say that our total performance was pretty poor today.

Jim Mccandless

I always expected it would be a lot smoother and slower, but it was amazing to see the speed out there of the guys.

Shea Phelan

It will be slower ... this will drag on.

Roger Simon

It's a young man's game. I just don't feel I'm as good at it as I ever was. You start to lose the game a little, you don't see it as fast. I've noticed that in the last few years, to be honest. You get a little slower.

Tom Postel

Now we're realizing that planetary systems are continually evolving. They change at a slower rate as they get older, but they continue to change.

Jack Lissauer

Oracle had gotten to valuations that it probably didn't deserve yet and the sell-off is a reflection of concerns over valuations. It's still a very good software company. We expect a little slower revenue growth but overall, they are an impressive company.

Kevin Caron

I can't ask the offense to score slower.

Pete Carroll

If you think you're boring your audience, go slower not faster.

Gustav Mahler

It was just a mishap with a slower guy. I was out there and had no where to go.

Mat Mladin

Small towns around us are alive and doing well, ... Franklin is slower. People just happen to find us. The first thing we need to do is get the people here.

Richard Andrews

It's warm, the snow is a little soft, so it's a little slower for beginners. They don't get going so fast. So it's a really perfect time for beginners.

Mary Conklin

Our summer was a bit slower than normal, but after Monday and Tuesday of last week, we're not really down at all.

Chris Hill

We're in a slower-growth environment and as Larry said, if you can get 10 percent growth from organic growth and 10 percent from acquisition, it adds cash and adds earnings. That's as long as they can make the integration work.

Chuck Jones

We skated with them for a few minutes and then we had a bad break. Brittany came in and got that first goal and that kind of took the air out of us a little bit. We were missing a few players. Canton just gets better and better every game. We were a couple of steps slower today.

Mike Beaumont

Currently, we are facing slower-than-expected demand due to economic uncertainties which we believe is an industry-wide phenomenon, ... These economic uncertainties make us cautious about 2001, when we believe CDW will continue to increase market share, but grow sales at lower rates than recent quarters.

Michael Krasny

The lid has been kept on a little more tightly in Europe. The pace of opening the market to competition has been slower, which has benefited the established carriers. Regulation on airport slots also means the government can control access to the sector and influence the fate of new entrants.

Doug Mcvitie

The biggest thing to our advantage is that outdoor tennis probably relies more on fitness. The ball moves a little slower, the points last a little longer, and fortunately one of the things we've focused on from day one in the fall is our fitness. I feel like we're one of the fitter teams out there.

Tony Bresky

Production growth is being driven by strong export demand and rising consumer spending at home. There will be some moderation in the fourth quarter because of slower investment growth and some temporary weakness in U.S. demand.

Ben Simpfendorfer

Given some supply issues (of the Xbox 360), we got off to a slower-than-expected start.

Colleen Healy

The strength of the GE model really shines during slower parts of the business cycle, ... have reduced GE's sensitivity to business cycles.

Jeffrey Immelt

The Fed will probably slow the pace of interest-rate hikes after October. Should the reports signal slower inflation, that's a factor to weaken the dollar.

Tetsu Aikawa

The financial targets we originally set for retail in 2003 have become increasingly challenging. Competitive and operating cost pressures have been greater than expected and the turnaround at certain businesses has been slower than planned.

Anders Moberg

Growth will slow slightly for a variety of factors. There's a challenging rate environment, a bit slower economic growth and there could be a return to a more normalized credit environment, with higher credit costs and building of provisions.

Joe Morford

We're looking for a little slower growth and a little higher inflation, but there will be a slower slowdown in growth than a pick-up in inflation.

Robert Mellman

Chico's is a great company, and even though it did well last quarter and everything is fine, people are starting to discount a slower future.
