A nuclear-armed Iran would represent a direct threat to U.S. forces and allies in the region, the greater Middle East, Europe and Asia, and eventually to the United States itself. At a minimum, it could seek to use nuclear weapons as a powerful tool of intimidation and blackmail.

Robert Joseph

Cal said he felt sorry for the Cuban people about how Batista had them under his thumb. He always said that Castro wasn't a communist until (the United States) made him one.

John Drummond

We know how popular it is in the States, and I think the bill looks very interesting. California is probably our biggest market in the States, so we're looking forward to that.

Andrew Fletcher

There's no improvisation here. Cuba has a plan to face hurricanes. The United States doesn't. It is vital that everyone be well informed, without sensationalism or cause for alarm. We do not turn hurricanes into a public spectacle.

Jose Rubiera

Most states have effective habitual offender laws. These laws take the most likely group of potential capital murderers off the street.

Michael Rushford

These infirmities are not simply the result of the passage of time or of old age, as some would suggest, but result from prison authorities' deliberate neglect of his medical needs while in the state's custody.

Annette Carnegie

This is the first big test of large-scale cycling in the United States post-Lance.

Jonathan Vaughters

Everything is a secret pact if it's under negotiation. After the United States disclosed the official documents, it was no longer a secret pact.

Bunroku Yoshino

Looking throughout the United States, this is one of the strongest areas in growth that's out there right now.

Randy Tennison

The Commission is still optimistic that a deal can be reached. We have concerns because some member states are more dependent on Russian gas than others.

Amadeu Altafaj Tardio

It's not about conservative or liberal. It's about the full selection of radio programming which is based on popularity here in the States.

Allison Barber

They would have to obtain a registration from the BAR if they wanted to operate the program like they have it set up in other states. If they wanted to do it differently, and have the consumer involved and have the consumer approve any changes, then that facility would operate pretty much like a drive-up claims center.

David Mcclune

Inflation pressures are quite modest in the United States. I don't think inflation will be a problem this year, or next year, even with the rate cuts.

Glenn Hubbard

When we started the upgrade project planning in 2004, the cost estimate was around $2 million. Since then, the total project costs have increased to $3 million in order for us to meet the state's requirements. It just keeps getting tougher and more costly to meet all the regulations.

Peter W. Gutsie

This nation's health-care problems are, in no small part, about Wal-Mart. Should governors take up Scott's offer for him to visit their states, we are sure he will hear just that.

Andrew Grossman

BIO sees regional bio-based economies emerging in various states of complexity and development. The trend is clear that industrial biotech is growing in importance in the Pacific Rim countries.

Brent Erickson

One of the big things that Boise seemed to have a problem with at this school. Was that we were paying to teach all these teachers, but they were going to other states because of better pay and what not.

Verlene Powell

This campus is so far removed from the rest of campus. Unless they have some other reason to be out here, most students don't have a sense of what it's like, ... It's an incredible part of N.C. State's campus.

Tom Stafford

The ultimate goal is to provide in 5 years a sound scientific basis for the management of the barrier islands here and also around the United States.

Gregory Carter

States have been in this race with one another to see who can give the most attractive incentives, usually in the form of tax breaks, to businesses.

Peter Enrich

We are playing a very important role in the design of the 2010 Census. As a census test site, we are setting the standard for how the Census Bureau counts American Indians all over the United States.

Harold Frazier

Iran is not Iraq. And the United States is not the self-appointed policeman of the world.

Cyrus Nasseri

If the Mets can win the World Series, the United States can get out of Vietnam.

Tom Seaver

Our efforts to get this convention adopted by member states of UNESCO are driven by our unshakeable commitment to protect and promote Canada's rich cultural diversity.

Liza Frulla

We do not have any intelligence indicating this type of attack is planned in the United States.

Brian Roehrkasse

His position in Azerbaijan is stable, and he did not have to ask any favors of the United States. Meanwhile, the United States needs Azerbaijani support in the Iran issue.

Ilgar Mammadov

If Florida gets a deal, then all the other states get the shaft.

Richard Charter

Diplomacy is a disguised war, in which states seek to gain by barter and intrigue, by the cleverness of arts, the objectives which they would have to gain more clumsily by means of war.

Randolph Bourne

The bottom line is this -- when it comes to helping Australians on the ground, the Australian government has failed miserably to persuade its closest friend and ally, the United States government, to allow Australian consular officials access to help our own people.

Kevin Rudd

[Lisa Graves of the American Civil Liberties Union scoffed at a defense official's assertion that the proposed change would not allow for carte blanche Pentagon spying inside the United States.] That's some spin, ... The change would allow them to gather information on Americans surreptitiously. If it walks like a duck and quacks like a duck, it's a duck.

Lisa Graves

We had to get back on track going into the states. This was a great conference and we had to find a way to get back on track.

Pam Adams

A friend told me that he saw one of our products displayed at a museum in the States. That's really encouraging.

Andrew Lee

If the United States was zero-dependent on Middle Eastern oil, but the rest of our allies among consuming nations were just as dependent, then a disruption anywhere is a price increase everywhere.

Lawrence Goldstein

It used to be if someone over 18 had sex with someone under 18, it was a sex crime. The law now states that if you are person under 23 and they have sex with someone over 16, it's legal.

Capt. Kristin Ministral

We can say this trend is being driven by foreigners and that higher rates in the United States will complicate the short-term outlook.

Oscar Campos

With the kick-start provided by this first big client, GSD&M becomes the third-largest advertising agency in the United States by signing other clients, such as Sam Walton's revolutionary Wal-Mart, as well as DreamWorks.

Steve Kaplan

We have tried to make it clear that the United States is not just an old crow that gives more milk the more it is kicked in the flanks.

Dean Rusk

The United States must be clear that we do not support torture. It is immoral.

Steve Rothman

There are a number of treaties made around the country, principally in the Great Lakes region and the Pacific Northwest, where Indians sold their lands to the United States but reserved rights to hunt and fish on the lands that they ceded.

Marc Slonin

I can understand the high level of anxiety the deal has created. But a more important issue is what's contained in the boxes when they get to the United States.

Keith Mason

She's as good as I've ever seen, as far as presidential material. President of the United States. That's how good she is.

Donna Lopiano

Is just a handout to some of the state's wealthiest residents.

Dan Walters

Mike is excited about heading to states. It's tough to make states even once. I didn't make it until my junior year. He's focused and hungry.

Brian Kapusta

We teach what the state curriculum tells us to teach. We have our aligned our curriculum to the state's.

Jack Barnes

When President Bush's father was in office, an almost identical scenario faced the United States. There was fighting by rebel forces trying to overthrow then-President Samuel Doe. U.S. ships were off the coast of Monrovia, they were evacuating Americans and Europeans, but refusing to intervene with a humanitarian force aimed at making peace.

Salih Booker

[Vilsack says FEMA has asked Iowa for a list of the kind of permanent and temporary housing that's available for hurricane victims.] Nobody wants to sleep on a cot for six months. Nobody wants to sleep in a place where there are 15,000 other people, ... To the extent that states can provide better detailed information about the housing opportunities, that may be persuasive to a lot of families.

Tom Vilsack

She made it to states last year and she can definitely get back.

Kevin Mulligan

The trip to Iraq confirmed that I made the right decision when I voted against lending Iraq the $18 billion the United States plans to use to help rebuild the country.

Vic Snyder

Will we have in a few years the migrants we wish? When all states have the migrants we wish, it will be a competition.

Rita Suessmuth

The highlights of being in Bennington for me was our tour through states like New Mexico, Arizona and California. Performing at the Warped Tour in Houston last summer was also a very big moment for us.

Reid Guidry

Racially balanced isn't the term that our board uses but it does have a policy that clearly states that when we do a redistricting we should not affect the diversity of a school any more than is necessary when drawing a line.

Jay Dillon

The major challenge for the United States is whether it can become the first outward-looking, continental, nonimperialist power in history.

Larry Summers

It's the first time that this administration gives evidence that it is prepared to roll up its sleeves and to do some hard work that goes beyond simply the rhetorical declarations of support for a two states solution.

Henry Siegman

There is a clear challenge to the view that some people in the United States have that if the Arab people could express their voices freely, they would vote for people who are more like us.

Rob Malley

It was strictly a bookkeeping error. We do not owe any states any back money.

Nick Iammartino

We would certainly be concerned about yet another expansion in the state's higher education system at a time when parents and students are experiencing double-digit tuition increases.

Joel Sawyer

In Montana, West Virginia, and the rest of the United States, coal is definitely the electricity source of the foreseeable future.

Ben Lieberman

Businesses would rather go to a state where the employees have the right to join a union or not to join a union. In that sense, then, it's sort of a zero-sum game - where they are competing with and attracting business from other states.

Lee Coppock

This is not going to have a huge impact on us. We currently ship through third-party shippers to New York and Michigan, so the biggest impact is symbolic in that it will hopefully allow us to ship to more states.

Phil Bilodeau

This report provides a balanced look at trade with China. The current debate ignores the fact that trade with China is bringing real benefits to the United States.

John Frisbie

This type of data retention would never fly in the United States because of privacy concerns and because the industry would not allow it. Even in the U.S., the Department of Homeland Security has not been able to mandate this type of retention measure.

Gus Hosein

We've got the worst teeth in the nation and we're paying a fortune for it. We spend far more than other states on Government dental services.

Michael Foley

We still have a tender place in our heart, for Mexico and the flag, our culture and our language, but we're in the United States, and we have to respect the American flag.

Hector Flores

From there, we will go directly to the United States Supreme Court.

Jared Leland

These people hate the United States, not for what we do, but for who we are and what we are.

Paul Bremer

The case has been turned over to the United States Customs Service because it involves international fraud.

Jay Lewis

I'm amazed that you could have the greatest portrait in the United States, of George Washington; you could have the Declaration of Independence desk, the desk on which it was written; you could have the hat that Abraham Lincoln had on the day he died, in buildings that really not only possibly endanger them, but the American people coming to look at them.

Lawrence Small

When you have a crime against humanity that is so awesome in scale and death, it is more than permissible to look around and say, who recently has been declaring war on the United States? Of course, the compass points straight to bin Laden.

Robert Fisk

The United States basically accepted protection abroad as the price of post-war recovery. Now, that these countries have caught up to our level of prosperity, it is time for them to catch up to our level of openness.

Larry Summers

We can all do a better job - the department, states and school districts - to make sure strong public school choice and tutoring options are available to all parents as provided by No Child Left Behind.

Chad Colby

A lot has to do with the trust level between the public and government. We are very lucky in the United States in that the public does believe what the government says.

Alex Thiermann

The United States government does not negotiate with terrorists.

Cofer Black

I think when we see the president of the United States holding hands with a Saudi prince that's sitting on the biggest oil reserve in the world, and see our military in Iraq on the second largest oil reserve and not being able to move that because of a civil war over there, that there's problems that are kind of outside our scope here in the state of Michigan to fix.

Doug Bennett

This is not a good situation. But these are the worst economic conditions in the state's history, and we're trying to open a school.

Rick Terres

It's the most disgusting thing, ... That this is the United States of America, and it's taken so long for them to do anything. We can't get food to them immediately? I'm just beside myself.

Debbie Williams

So much of what you see in the United States now was built when hurricane activity was low and there was a category 5 storm once every 30 years, not every year or two, ... Your investment decisions need to be revisited.

Robert Muir

Since Wal-Mart and other large corporations refuse to act responsibly when it comes to their employees' health insurance, Wake Up Wal-Mart is coordinating a nationwide effort to gain support for additional states to adopt legislation modeled after Maryland's 'Fair Share Health Care' bill.

Victoria Collins

Upper State's all I'm worried about right now.

Joey Lawson

Keith has helped out a lot. Luke is a little more focused. He is taking on some more difficult dives to bring up his degree of difficulty. Luke is a little better at the difficult dives, but he lost second place on the double reverse. He will work on that before states.

Matt Tucker

We see how America is stereotyped (over there) because America helps Israel (funding their military) and not Palestine. Palestinians here (in the United States) are portrayed as terrorists. We compare (the two) and see how they're similar on a friendship level.

Allison Hine

In order for America to confront this issue, it needs to be raised to a level of importance, and having the president of the United States talk about it can't help but do that. The battle can never be won unless it becomes an important American issue.

Craig Masback

Within a decade, Taiwan would be incapable of mounting any kind of credible defense, and the island would become nothing more than a security protectorate of the United States.

Ted Carpenter

We've been through a couple of the states twice.

Adrienne Camfield

It?s good to advance. For seeding purposes (at states), I wanted to get a win.

Sam Walters

We've finally given liberals a war against fundamentalism, and they don't want to fight it. They would, except it would put them on the same side as the United States.

Ann Coulter

We've got (firefighters) here from Florida, Oklahoma, Puerto Rico, pretty much all over the United States.

David Witt

In the minds of the Chinese people, this is unacceptable. That the United States, after doing this, still refuses to acknowledge responsibility and refuses to pay for the damages.

Jia Qingguo

Public money was used to build infrastructure throughout the United States. Alaska is in something of a catch-up position, being a young state with many needs.

Bob Weinstein

Delia's contributions about religion and religious leaders, particularly during the death and funeral of Pope John Paul II, stood out for their intelligence, sensitivity and depth. Her hire as a full-time correspondent represents a major commitment by CNN to covering the religious revival in the United States, where tens of millions of people cite faith as a central part of their lives.

John Klein

Nor have we been advised that terrorists are known to be in the United States actively plotting such an attack.

Raymond Kelly

I'm happy that we won the (Div. 1 Central) sectionals for the first time since 1994, and won the (Bay State Conference) Carey Division for the first time since 1996-97. Next year, we want to be back as sectional champs and win the states.

Jon Kanavich

We expect CO2 emissions growth in China between now and 2030 will equal the growth of the United States, Canada, all of Europe, Japan, Australia, New Zealand and Korea combined.

Fatih Birol

As a freshman I couldn't even believe we made it to states. Now, it's expected of us. I just think we have so much experience that we know how to deal with big games.

Cristi Ecks

Finally. Finally. She [Strickland] finally broke the barrier. She was sick, and she's finally starting to feel better. She won bars at states last year and she could be right up there again this year.

Melissa Arms

Many are reacting negatively to it. Real ID ... will have significant fiscal implications for the states.

Matt Sundeen

Secretary Powell will return to the region on another trip once the newly confirmed Palestinian Cabinet has had the opportunity to begin its work. That visit will afford the secretary an opportunity to advance the president's vision of two states -- Israel and an independent Palestine -- living side-by-side in peace and security.

Richard Boucher

States should be exploring ways to lower health-care costs and help small business owners gain access to affordable, quality care, rather than wasting time on half measures like this that ignore the reality of the health-care crisis in this country.

Bruce Josten

A payment of US$4 million was included in the overall payment of US$320 million to the United States which was agreed to in 1971.

Bunroku Yoshino

Such frequent mutual visits show China and the United States carry out high-level communication free of obstruction, which is conducive to the improvement of bilateral ties.

Fu Mengzi

There's been a greater recognition that this is an important issue. We're expecting somewhere between 8 and 10 million [participants] in the United States alone this year.

Robert Kesten

There's no way this bank should be sold at this price because all the information about the business of the bank, about the balance sheet, clearly states that this bank should be sold around the 61 to 65 (pound per share) level.

Bassim Arida

This shows the statements by the president's science adviser to be simply wrong when he states that we can't quantify the risks of global warming.

Gary Yohe

It only comes from actually handling a live, infected chicken. We don't have any of those in the U.S.A. and only a small number of people in Asia have contacted it. The danger, right now, is essentially zero in the United States and it's even pretty slim in Asia.

Richard Lobb

That's super-important to us. We're a part of the Smithsonian, the national museum of the United States. We need to be taken seriously. At the core of it, we're an educational entity.

Richard Burgess

The California Solar Initiative is the largest solar program in the country, and I hope it will be a model for other states.

Dian Grueneich

As we all know, the needs of the people in the Gulf region are great, so we need to move with all deliberate speed to get the money flowing to the states. We look forward to working with the governors as we implement the specific awards.

Donald Evans

This is the hotbed of (high school) cross country running in the United States. Western New York has great distance running tradition, but we're gonna recruit the best kids in the state of New York and the best in the nation. We're not going to just be a regional program.

Chris Fox

The majority of crime guns in the United States end up in the hands of a criminal through the gray market.

Bj Zapor

[So will it all end in tears? Will the 5-year boom that has seen average prices increase by 50 percent in the United States (and by that much in the past 12 months in Phoenix) prove to be a bubble? After all, Goldman Sachs reports,] Relative to per-capita GDP, a typical home in San Francisco now costs much more than one in London. ... Beware.

Robert Schiller

People tried to dismiss my candidacy when I ran for the United States Senate against an incumbent in 1992, and I had little money... And so I believe that so long as we have enough to keep going, to keep our operation going, to get to the point that people -- the people can speak, not just the money. The money primary is one thing, but the people's votes in the end will determine who wins.

Carol Moseley Braun

I get media kits from all over the country about how other states are making these kinds of investments. Here we have this enormous research base, but we're not doing anything about it.

Greg Steinhoff

While we are pleased that Texas continues to be one of our top states for leads, we are concerned as this suggests a large amount of piracy is taking place in the area. There have been major advances in the fight against software piracy, yet it remains a very real, very serious problem.

Jenny Blank

Our state is one of the fastest growing and the most naturally diverse in the United States, ... Our mountains and beaches bring the visitors, and our universities, technology and industries draw the residents. Without clean air, the innovation and natural beauty are ruined.

Roy Cooper

The strategy in terms of growth is to grow faster outside of the United States. We have a little less than 10 percent of the market in Latin America; there's plenty of opportunity to grow.

Terry Kahler

Biological weapons are no longer a potential threat, but a real threat to the safety and security of the United States.

James Gilmore

Most southeastern states are conservative.

Charles Ruth

Emerging countries, such as Oman, can learn so much from the United States. To improve the quality of life of their citizens, these countries must embrace the core business principles that enable companies and individuals to be creative, resourceful and entrepreneurial.

Sam Hamdan

He has set an example for governors all over the United States. It's the governors' responsibilities to go out and do DNA testing in these cases. That is the only way you can enhance the integrity of the criminal justice system.

Peter Neufeld

Suppose you're 15 and you're part of the Family in India but you want out. You say you have relatives in the United States but no way to get to them well, we'll get you a plane ticket.

Daniel Roselle

Needless to say, we are very pleased with these results, ... Our enhanced surveillance program is designed to provide information about the level of prevalence of B.S.E. in the United States, which by any measure is extremely low.

John Clifford

It is going to make for a very long and emotional summer. As far as I'm concerned, when anything unusual strikes fear in you is no way to live in the United States of America. But that is what is going to happen until any sort of comprehensive legislation is passed.

Carlos Acosta

As the number of obese children in the United States increases, it is essential to develop child safety seats that can protect children of all sizes and shapes.

Lara Trifiletti

The states unevenly regulate it, so it's a better buy in New York by far than it is in Louisiana, where it's a terrible buy. But if you're 60 and in poor health, it's a good buy anywhere. If you're under 40, it's a bad buy.

Jim Hunt

The philosophy of the 'Bush Doctrine' is in essence force. It advocates the United States should rule over the whole world with overwhelming force, military force in particular.

Qian Qichen

Eminent domain has been used historically very judiciously and mostly appropriately in North Carolina and other states. Our opposition is strictly based on our concern about the potential change in direction with eminent domain that the Supreme Court had opened that threatens private ownership of property.

Ken Chalk

Hopefully the state's done bleeding us, ... There's still some things out there that can potentially harm us.

Mike Edwards

The one difference between Chicago and the other states is Chicago is a densely populated area, so there will also be a facility where the students can come in at least once a week for instruction.

Peter Stewart

Tech Industry job losses in New York slowed dramatically in 2004. We are seeing positive indicators for the future. With tech exports up and venture capital soaring by 47 percent in the Empire State, we believe we will see growth in the high paying jobs that will drive the state's economy in the future.

Justin Wright

One of the embarrassing problems for the early nineteenth-century champions of the Christian faith was that not one of the first six Presidents of the United States was an orthodox Christian.

Mortimer Adler

He did a real nice job in that match. He?s been wrestling really solid the last couple of weeks and things are starting to click for him right now. He?s really excited about going to states.

Wally Caldwell

The United States is a country where people see the future as better and see themselves as making a better future for themselves.

Martin Baily

It was a lot different than a high school meet, where there are six teams, at the most, outside of states. There were so many colleges and people who were at a high level, but it was a great experience. I can't say how great it was.

Becky O'brien

To take advantage of the system, the locals are going to have to have the technologies in place. The locals and the states have to find the resources.

Gary Cooper

Even though some states believe that they already comply with the Real ID act, in actuality none of them do.

Jonathan Frenkel

The red states still wear shoulder pads.

David Wolfe

Given the prospect that the Japanese economy will remain on a path of expansion, we believe that Japanese investors will continue to take advantage of higher yields abroad, particularly in the United States.

Paul Chertkow

There are certainly states where you will find acceptance.

William Duncan

I don't see why the United States has to get involved in this issue, ... It is a decision involving the sovereignty of Venezuela.

Jose Vicente Rangel

Releasing an equivalent amount of oil from the reserve for a short period of time will help keep fuel supplies adequate, not just for the Gulf Coast area, but for all the United States.

Joe Barton

I can't say enough about Newport. It's such a homey, safe and comfortable place. And there are so many Irish. If I couldn't live in Newport, I think I'd just move back home. I don't think I'd want to find another place (in the United States).

Beth Keating

The gaming industry is notoriously paranoid. It was easier for me to be wearing a gun within an arm's reach of the president of the United States than get approval to carry a firearm in a casino.

David Almeida

The chief executive officer of the multi-million dollar Humane Society of the United States once stated that his personal goal was the abolition of all animal agriculture. I'm happy to say, he's lost a very important battle today, and animal agriculture won.

Charlie Stenholm

It feels awesome. This is the greatest moment of my career so far, it feels great. It will always be great to improve. But this is just great to roll into states with this momentum and keep it up.

Bryan Ortenzio

[E]specially in the day and age we live in … the president of the United States needs to have his Constitutional powers unimpaired, if you will, in terms of the conduct of national-security policy.

Richard Cheney

In some Western countries, including in the United States, some people have ignored the overall development of China's human rights.

Sun Yuxi

Despite this anticipated seasonal slowdown, almost all industries, occupations, regions and states show much higher levels of online job availability than a year ago, demonstrating solid growth over the course of 2005.

Steve Pogorzelski

In international law, states are required to prevent acts of torture, and not turn a blind eye to it.

Paul Green

I think the city will do a great job. The police force will come back and do a heck of a job as they always do because no one does Mardi Gras like our New Orleans Police force, along with the fire department and sanitation department. Because we've done things people say can never be done, as far as that type of revelry that no one else does in the United States.

Penny Larsen

There was a large displacement of Louisiana natives throughout the United States after Hurricane Katrina. If we succeed in launching a national chain, maybe we can at least bring a little taste of home closer to them.

Jace Harris

State government is facing real fiscal challenges. We have to show legislators that we can provide a good return on their investment. We need to convince them that when you invest in health care and biomedical research, you are investing in the state's economy and in the health and welfare of its citizens.

Robert Golden

Most of them are considered Gilded Age presidents, from Reconstruction to 1900. But you know, it's not easy to be the president of the United States.

Bob Leith

This is a stunning and very welcome development that puts on hold all Florida executions and may well put a time out on all lethal injection executions in the United States.

Abe Bonowitz

Last year the Earth Keepers broke all records for the Great Lakes states by collecting over 45 tons of household hazardous waste in one day. This year we hope to break that record with our electronic waste collection.

Carl Lindquist

Surely the United States should do what it can to prevent dictators elsewhere from inferring that repression works.

Bill Kristol

If the court rules that it is unconstitutional for the state to discriminate, each state will have to develop a solution, and the solution could be even worse than the problem. States could level up and allow all forms of direct shipping or level down and not allow any form of direct shipping.

Wendell Lee

Three major buyers of oil will emerge in the future. China, India and the United States. This will create interesting geopolitical scenarios we haven't begun to address.

Tom Stringfellow

Timely, reliable assistance from the United States fosters the political stability and economic well-being critical to Jordan's continuing role as a regional leader for peace.

Strobe Talbott

We are seeing the most intense bargaining among big states that we have seen since the end of the Cold War, with war in the offing and no certainty about the outcome.

Graham Allison

As long as Congress doesn't change the rules of the game, there's only so far the states can go.

Karl Frieden

This is the first large, population-based study evaluating liver transplantation in the United States. Marked ethnic differences in receipt of transplants should be examined further, and reasons for these disparities clarified.

Abby Siegel

The Internet provides a delivery system for pathological states of mind.

Phillip Adams

To a greater extent than the Bush administration, the media was responsible for creating the fantasy that Iraq posed an imminent threat to the United States.

John Nichols

[However, he sees both sides of the issue. In defense of the states,] if you accept the concept of sovereign immunity as a valid doctrine, it's a reasonable exercise ... States aren't like a business; they don't sell software.

William Mcgrath

This case has turned into a he said, she said situation with no forensic evidence to back up the state's testimony.

Stephen Lindsay

The state's neglect of its duties has failed these students for 25 years and now it's time for the state to stop passing the buck and address its failures by implementing the program the way it was meant to be.

Paul Herrera

It feels good to be on top. It's a great feeling, and it would feel even better if we can beat them again in the States. That would make everything really great.

Pete Brown

Imports create competition and keep domestic industry more responsive to consumers. In the United States, we import everything consumers want. So why not pharmaceuticals?

Chuck Grassley

I don't think the government will succeed. I think tobacco companies feel betrayed because they did the master settlement agreement with the states and the government keeps coming back for more.

Patrick Carroll

The entire international order rests on principles, one of which is the elementary one that there must be respect of the sovereignty and territorial integrity of existing states, and one must proceed from that.

Vojislav Kostunica

Durable goods will continue to lead the manufacturing expansion in 2006. The United States economy is bumping up against capacity constraints in many sectors and businesses, particularly non-manufacturing businesses, are stepping up investment spending.

Daniel Meckstroth

U.S. Figure Skating is thrilled to bring this international event back to Colorado Springs. The city proved to be an excellent host in 2006, and we are excited to welcome the world's top figure skaters back to the United States for this event.

Ron Hershberger

I think that these countries do not want to miss out on the export opportunities in the United States and that's one of the primary reasons behind this.

Tom Benfer

It's a way for the president to deliver some support to states that are battleground states during an election.

Russell Sobel

As required by the Ethics and Government Act, and with the authorization of the court supervising independent counsels, the Office of Independent Counsel submitted a referral to the House of Representatives containing substantial and credible information that may constitute grounds for impeachment of the president of the United States.

Charles Bakaly

We were coming in at 10-0, but people really weren't sure about us. East is the champion that you have to go through in our conference to get to (PIAA District 1) and the states. They're well coached, and they've had great athletes over the last five or six years. Last year, we came here and lost in overtime. The girls came in determined to show we could play with them.

Bob Walsh

On one hand, these reports sometimes come into conflict with the state's interests and mislead public opinion. On the other hand, sometimes the reports reveal sensational events.

Hong Bin

I do think there is a danger. We are talking to the California congressional delegation, asking them to protect states that are in the process of converting.

The growth of Poker in the United States has been phenomenal, to the point that it no longer surprises fans to see celebrities from film get involved in these events. Obviously, few people expect the movie stars to actually win a tournament like this, but it would be very exciting to see someone like Affleck at the final table playing the likes of Gus Hansen.

Alex Czajkowski

Well, a lot of people would say it's ridiculous to imagine the United States would either start something or stage something but - gee whiz! - Remember the Gulf of Tonkin!

Art Bell

We were able to take advantage of their expertise and experience in other states over the years. They helped us write better regulations. They were very concerned about their image.

Thom Berry

He finds the perfect approach to Murrow, what his contribution was. It's not a film that makes Murrow out to be a grand hero who saves the United States. It shows that within a domain limited by the possibilities of the medium and the demands of sponsors, that someone can make a stance, can stand up and be counted and make their voice heard.

Richard Pena

The legalization or presence of gaming in one state invariably leads to calls for a response in neighboring states. These experts will examine public policy, operational challenges, regulatory issues and the critical market dynamics.

Joseph Weinert

While we are rightfully proud of the outstanding research that has evolved from Ohio State's primate cognition project in the last decade or so, we believe the time is now right to move the animals to safer quarters where they can live out their lives in peace.

Robert Mcgrath

I think that it's responsible and expected of them to seek public input on this. Because Islanders are concerned. This is our resource, as well as the state's resource.

Robert Woodruff

The offices weren't networked. And it was all supported by one guy who if he was sick our whole system could be down. He was also charging us for travel between the seven offices in two states.

Michael Sher

We've all agreed to certain priorities and I think that's really the important aspect, and the state's been very cooperative.

Robert Kritzman

Customers are very brand-loyal. I think we're making it much too easy with this to see sales revenue moving to other states.

Jim Tudor

That was due in part to its ideal orbital location which is right over the center of the United States, providing equal access to really any location, and also its high power and frequency characteristics.

Robert Bednarek

The top eight states on our list are Minnesota, Colorado, Texas, Arizona, Indiana, Virginia, Alabama, and Utah.

John Kramer

Lawyers in the United States have a central role, a visibility and prominence that doesn't exist anywhere else.

Marc Galanter

We've found about 200 road-rage deaths over a period of several years, compared to the 17,000 a year caused by drunk driving. Some states are considering pretty severe penalties, trying to rewrite laws so that road rage has some specific legal consequences. We're not sure that's appropriate.

Mark Edwards

Market players had been refraining from selling the yen before the release of the CPI data. But now, they know that the BOJ is unlikely to change their current monetary policy for a while, and the United States continues to have higher interest rates than Japan.

Kazuhiro Nishina

Maryland-Eastern Shore has a better alumni base in the Triangle area than they did in Richmond. Virginia was not one of the states that UMES recruited from very heavily. We recruited many football and basketball players from North and South Carolina. We were excited about the move up there as well.

Nelson Townsend

The pressure makes me excited. It's good pressure. I have to have the results and stay in the United States. I can't wait to open the season.

Shinji Mori

The western half of the United States isn't even worth talking about, ... They're having a great day.

Rally Caparas

We're in an emergency situation. The United States has become an absolutely terrifying country, and I would hope that I could participate in some way in stopping the horror and the brutality.

Wallace Shawn

We are already in discussion with a number of states in the United States.

Will Whitehorn

If, all of a sudden, the Florida delegation drops out of the equation, it makes the rest of the country much more vulnerable. The coastal states that don't want to see [outer continental shelf] development really need to hang together, or they're going to hang separately.

Lisa Speer

Our rates are lower than in those other states. Perhaps us having outside counsel has helped us.

George Wallace

As envisioned, the proposed energy school will bring together the scientific, engineering and economic disciplines at UW to focus on teaching and research related to the state's energy infrastructure.
