There is no observation more frequently made by such as employ themselves in surveying the conduct of mankind, than that marriage, though the dictate of nature, and the institution of Providence, is yet very often the cause of misery, and that those who enter into that state can seldom forbear to express their repentance, and their envy of those whom either chance or caution hath withheld from it.

Samuel Johnson

While I would characterize what we saw in terms of very large databases on Linux as early adopter usage, it foretells the increasing presence of Linux in years to come. We expect that in the next survey we will see even significantly more Linux presence than we saw in this survey.

Robert Dorin

This survey is a clear message to the citizens of California that our out-of-control legal system is hurting our state's economy and in urgent need of reform.

Jim Haynes

The other path is through education. Fresno State and Cal Poly in Pomona offer four-year degrees in land surveying.

Paul Enneking

Drug prices are much more than a casual concern for New Yorkers. As prices continue to increase, they've become an obstacle to being able to live a healthy life. This survey shows not only that high drug costs are a problem, but that people expect their legislators to do something about it.

Lois Aronstein

The survey for the final reading would have taken place over the past 10 days or so, when market volatility was particularly high, ... Because of that, the final reading very well could have come in below the preliminary reading. The fact it came in higher shows a certain amount of resilience in the consumer sector.

Patrick Fearon

Yet another survey of the economy is suggesting sustainable strength. Rates backed up a little because of this report, but you're treading water a bit because of payrolls data lurking on Friday.

Cary Leahey

These surveys give regional snapshots, and that's all they do. I'd never even heard of the Empire State survey until recently -- and I don't think you can build the case that Wall Street sits there panting, waiting for the results.

Larry Wachtel

There's grades for five categories, including speaking skills, organization, etc., that students can grade their teachers on, and there's a survey you can take, and then you can also post comments.

Brett Wolfington

We commissioned this survey to capture a snapshot of the state of customer service in America today. The right attitude to customer service can make all the difference. Treating customers like people and providing service with a smile remain vital elements of delivering world-class customer care.

John Pearson

The results of this survey are shocking and should be a wake-up call to men and women that drinking and smoking too much not only gives you a bad headache in the morning but can affect your ability to start a family.

Ann Robinson

David Letterman

Well, with gasoline well over $3.00 a gallon in most places when this survey was conducted, it is little wonder that consumers were cranky.

Joshua Shapiro

Our clients are looking at the gamut of planning issues, engineering issues, surveying, environmental planning and landscape architecture. We bill ourselves as a full-service consulting company.

Richard Callahan

The survey seems to be a little bit worse than people had anticipated. It does show that the manufacturing sector is struggling under the weight of the strong pound. It shows a squeeze on profit margins. It will raise a little bit of doubt about whether the Bank of England will have the courage to raise interest rates next week.

Rob Hayward

In the next couple of weeks, we will do a contact survey. A Camden Company will do the research forms.

Mark Christ

April's survey could be interpreted as an early sign of a mild revival on the high street but let's not jump the gun.

John Longworth

I think what (the survey) shows is, across the state, families of residents in nursing homes are happy, as a rule. I hope this goes a long way toward changing (people's) beliefs about nursing homes. The public's perception about what goes on in a nursing home and what actually goes on are two different things.

William Graves

Consumer security is extremely important to any financial services organization, but the path to security and the confidence in those security measures, is extremely varied. This survey has made it clear to us that while legislation is currently the driving force to secure consumer data, there is still education needed around what it means to ensure data privacy.

Karim Toubba

The new Manpower survey, I think, reflects the optimism in San Antonio.

Keith Phillips

The results of this survey are not surprising. 2005 was a phenomenal year for Maryland. Our economy remained red hot, unemployment remained low and we had a number of tremendous wins.

Aris Melissaratos

The payroll survey is one of the oldest government data series and it was state-of-the-art when it was developed.

Katharine Abraham

This survey tells us that candidates who support pre-K have a better chance of winning at the polls.

Cecilia Zalkind

The bottom line is that France seems to have run through a metamorphosis from a euro-zone driver to a growth laggard. Those who revised up their euro zone GDP growth outlook for this year on the back of strong German survey data might now be forced to take the much less upbeat French growth picture also into account.

Marco Kramer

We found that the combined annual total of bakery food donated to charity was an astonishing 750,000 pounds. And this estimate is actually very low because a lot of the members were unavailable for the survey.

Dave Schmidt

The number of people already employed in the industry is in the thousands, and it's at all levels, including storage, trucking, freight forwarding, trading, buying, selling, processing, surveying, banking and others.

Alistair Macnab

This early in the campaign, surveys and survey results have limited value.

Ben Mitchell

Bishops have tried to hide this for years, so there is no reason to believe all of a sudden they would change their ways. The only prudent thing to do is to assume this is not the entire truth. This is a survey, not a report or investigation.

David Clohessy

The results of the survey were very encouraging. I know the board wouldn't have wanted to go forward without the (positive) results of the survey.

Becky Elam

All appropriate parties are surveying the situation. I know they were to talk again (this) morning.

Russ Anderson

We couldn't believe it. To be honest, the experience knocked our confidence and set us back, as we lost a few hundred pounds in legal and survey fees.

Graham Cudbertson

Our survey confirms that if parents wait to start, they run the risk of not saving enough for when their student reaches college age, ... If parents start saving early and use a tax-deferred plan, like the 529 Plan, they can significantly improve their chances of building the funds they need to pay for their children's college.

Stephen Mitchell

The Survey doesn't have a clue how to get this out. I've gone out of my way to give out hundreds of copies. But it's haphazard. Unfortunately, there's no economic incentive to make it available.

Michael Collier

These town hall meetings, plus an online survey that the EDC is conducting on our Web site, represent the final stages of our feasibility study on the (events center).

Liana Wallace

The U.S. Geological Survey have responsibility for the entire world; they just don't have the density of stations they need ... to precisely locate small activity.

Jim Zollweg

It was a survey we conducted before a bond issue in 2004. We paid the company $15,000 for that survey.

Tim Mcavoy

A recent consumer survey we carried out in the UK indicated that there is a discrepancy between people's attitude toward physical theft and toward software theft. People will say that they would report someone who was stealing from a physical retailer, but not someone downloading an illegal copy of a software program.

John Lovelock

Travelers aren't asking for much. According to this survey, airlines should forget about the latest bells and whistles and get back to the basics, like clean bathrooms and comfortable seating.

Michele Perry

The main figure doesn't look very strong, but taken as a whole the survey still points to a moderate economic recovery under way.

Yoshimasa Maruyama

We have in place the Iraq Survey Group, which is equipped to look into all of this.

John C. Danforth

This survey should serve as a wake-up call for the majority of Americans who have not planned for the eventuality that they will need care in the future. Unless the public gets serious about their future care, family caregivers will be less equipped than they are now to provide this care.

Richard Schulz

The surge in underlying health care costs stands out as the most troubling survey finding, and is a signal that premiums will continue to grow.

Jon Gabel

Survey after survey finds people are underestimating what they need for a financially secure retirement.

James Klein

This is a wonderful step forward, ... The information from this updated survey creates new grant opportunities and possible tax incentives.

Greg Martin

I talked to Robert Helm, one of their waterfowl biologists, and he said they are not planning for anything. They are going to have their teal season, but they are going to cancel their teal season survey because all of their aircraft are tied up on more important things.

Dave Morrison

This survey remains consistent with a booming manufacturing sector.

Richard Iley

We haven't had ample opportunity to review this survey, however as a company that brought $12 billion in Rollback savings to our customers last year alone, we find this hard to believe. But given our pledge to everyday low prices, we'll look into this.

Karen Burk

We did a nationwide survey of tapes to find someone who could step in and do baseball when I was gone, and Bill was the guy we selected. It was obvious sooner or later that he would be doing his own thing. The broadcast business has lost a good one. It's just a shame.

Lon Simmons

The interesting finding of the survey was that for 2006, enterprises are facing serious challenges across multiple areas of email management. The market is demanding solutions for holistic email data management that go beyond a single feature or function.

Michael Osterman

With just over 1 million responses to our latest Annual Car Reliability Survey, we now have more data than ever with which to guide consumers.

Rik Paul

Biological Research Associates was the primary partner in the conservation efforts. The other partners were the Genesis Group and Heidt and Associates. They were all involved in surveying, planning, engineering. It was a team effort.

Justin Conrad

The list is based on our own survey research. We start the data collection in October and publish the list in April.

Bob Morse

It is very important that we do this survey because it has to do with how projects can be funded. What the survey will prove out is our downtown will support housing. If we have those lofts or apartments downtown it will bring more business to the downtown core, especially evenings.

Tony Helbling

The euro zone economy is strong. The latest German purchasing managers' survey was at a record high.

David Solin

We don't require monumental surveys; they're all site specific. We don't have a good handle on how significant mussel resources are but we have committees working on trying to come up with a satisfactory way to survey and protect them, and allow dredging to continue.

Tom Proch

Our survey results are a wake-up call to people in their twenties and thirties: Get going.

Robert Doll

In almost every survey of consumers, they say they don't mind spending money. What they hate is the shopping experience.

Alan Bush

There's no doubt from this survey that people think the problems that led to the creation of the Cape Cod Commission are still very much a concern. And there's more work to be done.

Margo Fenn

The wealth of information in this Hubble survey, including seeing stars of all sizes in one dense place, provides an extraordinary opportunity to study star formation. Our goal is to calculate the masses and ages for these young stars so that we can map their history and get a general census of the star formation in that region. We can then sort the stars by mass and age and look for trends.

Massimo Robberto

We did not aim to survey or list individual sites but to provide estimates based on available information, such as old Ordnance Survey maps and local authority land records. The information should assist in considering the progress being made in tackling land contamination, and in the development of policy and strategies at a local, regional and national level.

Dave Johnston

We carried out a survey of our readers, and more than half of them only ever used point-and-shoot mode - and our readers are, by definition, camera enthusiasts.

Jamie Harrison

For us the survey is the way we get recognized.

Richard Dix

Our interpretation of the results of the survey seem to indicate residents would like the Governance Steering Committee to focus on a long-term solution. There doesn't appear to be an immediate desire to make changes.

Jim Stinson

We've got four officers out assisting ... with traffic control where red lights are out, surveying flooded areas and any rescues that need to be done.

Stephen Adams

The military also suggested that they would do a survey of the embassy, embassy security, I guess.

The results of our survey indicate that fraud in the U.S. is a serious problem.

Howard Beales

The [survey] scores will dictate who gets the bid.

Gina Cahill

The survey also underscored the fact that smaller firms are also catching up with large-sized firms in terms of improvement in business sentiment.

Osamu Katano

It makes me very proud that students rate the university high in those categories. We know our students by name, not by number, ... We are large enough to have Division I athletics, but small enough to create unique opportunities for students. Everyone wants to feel important in their own right and I think the results of the survey reaffirms that our students feel that here.

Jack Hawkins

The large influx of ducks into the state since the November survey is undoubtedly due to recent severe cold fronts bringing freezing temperatures and snow to northern and mid-latitude areas of the Central and Mississippi Flyway. Combined with persistent drought to the north, conditions were favorable for waterfowl migration into Louisiana.

Robert Helm

Although many firms in the survey saw increased investment in business continuity and disaster recovery planning as key areas over the next three years, the research also reveals the lack of awareness of alternatives such as risk transfer opportunities, as a means of reducing the impact of technology failure or criminal acts.

Shaun Cooper

This is the most representative survey of airline passengers across the globe, ... It encompasses all passenger types, be they business travelers, vacationers or backpackers.

Peter Miller

But the survey shows they must continue to work on this issue.

David Gallop

The survey paints an image of Japanese high school students being pleasure-seeking, average-seeking and little motivated.

Asahi Shimbun

In the spring of 2005 during a night shocking survey, we collected 119 bass per hour averaging over 2.5 pounds each. That is a very good number, and the body condition of each was excellent.

Dan Stephenson

I don't need somebody behind a desk to tell me what a marketing survey says is funny. I got 3 million miles and 70,000 tickets sold, telling me that I know how to make people laugh.

D.l. Hughley

Anticipation of a 25-basis-point rate cut pushed mortgage rates downward in this week's survey, and we expect to see further downward drifts over the coming week or so as the market moves on the actual larger rate cut itself.

Frank Nothaft

This report paints a picture very similar to the fall survey and shows an economy practically at full capacity.

Marc Levesque

It is assumed that the results of the survey would also be true for publishers that incorporate FSC fiber in addition to recycled fiber.

Tyson Miller

For a listed building or something very unusual, you might need a specialist survey carried out by somebody who really understands that type of property. And some very unusual buildings are in a poor state of repair. So lenders might release the money in stages, and get someone to check before they release any more.

Melanie Bien

The survey came back and told us we didn't have an image. In the 1993 time frame we were generating about $8 billion in software and still no one thought of IBM as a software company.

Mark Elliot

I figured it was a survey or something. You know, a few questions, no big deal.

Jeff Monroe

In a down economy, our survey has found executives always pushing profitability a few years out, and this year is no different. But what the executives are telling us this year is that they have seen the worst and that the industry is poised for a rebound.

Brian Ambrose

You would think DOT or somebody would survey the police. They're the ones who have to make stops along this darkened highway. They must know it's dangerous.

Jim Hipple

So this way we kind of have a handle on the temperature of the company throughout the year, not just once when we do our big survey.

Margie O'clair

This survey is the only organized effort to truly determine the number of people who are homeless at any given point in time in the seven metro counties area.

Linda Murphy

One of the things we learned from the survey is automation professionals do not have a well-defined professional identity in the manufacturing world. There is not a well-defined book of knowledge for automation professionals. The CAP program is a way of defining what an automation professional does and to give them recognition for those skills.

Dale Lee

At the end of the day, the law says if you have no other out and it appears you are about to get killed or seriously harmed, you don't have to send out a survey. You can pull out a gun and defend yourself.

Scott Newman

We are looking in many parts of the world and China is one of our focuses at the moment. We are currently surveying the landscape in China to identify any opportunities.

Tim Mcnulty

Not only do our top picks have to perform well at our test track, they have to get average or better reliability, according to our annual car reliability survey.

Rik Paul

Our ranking hasn't changed much over the years of doing this survey.

Nancy Engel

The survey adds to the view that the economy is making steady improvements and deflationary pressure is waning. It's supportive for the Bank of Japan's bullish scenario.

Atsushi Takeda

This survey indicates it is more important than ever for us to focus our efforts on informing the public about stuttering.

Jane Fraser

Clearly the economic news we're getting at the moment is better than expected, part from the States but also from Europe with ZEW survey today, ... Nine days in a row is a very strong run, but the jury is still out as to whether economic recovery can become established.

Richard Champion

If customer feedback from our transactional survey is extremely good, Mike will celebrate customer support's success by doing something as simple as treating the entire staff to ice cream that day.

Art Hernandez

Two years ago we did an on-site survey of 1,700 homes. We had 25 percent that could have survived a wildfire. Now we're at 50 percent.

Larry Southard

The fact is, yes, our customers are important, ... We do listen to our fans. We do survey our fans. And we do try to connect with them. I'd be the first to tell you that we clearly need to do a better job at that. That starts with me and any contact we have with our fan base.

David Montgomery

The signs are about as bright as they've been for a long time. We've got the highest confidence in hiring that we've seen since we started doing the survey, with the biggest spread between employers planning to hire and those planning to diminish their workforce.

Jim Wunderman

Our children for the last 10 years, it's been said in every government survey, it's easier for them to buy illegal drugs than it is to buy beer and cigarettes.

Jack Cole

Part of the survey really shows there are misconceptions, and part of our mission is to clear up these misconceptions.

Joe Madeira

Gambling on sports is highly popular, not only among adults, but with young people who are gambling in growing numbers. In fact, Florida's most recent youth survey found that more than 55% of students in grades 6-12 report having gambled in the last year.

Pat Fowler

These forecasts are higher than in the previous survey, particularly for the first half of 2006, suggesting increasing optimism among the forecasters.

Philadelphia Fed

Our members overwhelmingly support primary enforcement of the seat belt by at least 70 percent in every survey we have taken over the past decade. We hope the legislature will finally do the right thing this session and support primary enforcement of the seat belt.

Dawn Duffy

Assuming the survey results are accurate, this indicates that many companies do not yet recognize e-mail as an important mode of communication. Responding to an e-mail within one to five days is reasonable. Anything longer should be considered excessive and a sign that the company is not truly open for business on the Web.

Mark Levitt

I'm not sure that the right thing to do right now is take a survey. I don't want to say we need a 'special session,' but we need to get a grasp on this as a board.

Ruth Larson

When I walked into the building I did notice the odor primarily in the north end of the building and somewhat in the center area. I did not notice it in the south area or the east area and slightly in the auditorium, not as much as other people had reported on the day of the survey. Obviously odors change over time.

Robert Rottersman

Frankly, I was surprised by our survey results based on what you hear. I'm not saying some people didn't say negative things, but the responses to our study were largely supportive.

Kathy Deck

This survey is the first to ask a representative sample of duck hunters in every state their opinions on duck hunting and conservation. The results of this effort will better inform fish and wildlife agencies about the views of duck hunters throughout this country and will aid in the development of hunting regulations.

Don Childress

Barring a crippling auto industry strike or some other major event unforeseen in May, the latest survey readings indicate a growth rate of about 3 percent during the next six months.

William Dunkelberg

The survey was much weaker than expected indicating the bank's rate cut has done little to assuage the malaise that continues to afflict the U.K. consumer.

Richard Mcguire

The survey results clearly show the uncertainty that exists among the UK population when it comes to the growing prowess of India and China.

David Owen

Our survey showed that most businesses lump taxes and fees together, and this is their fastest growing expense category ? matched only by the cost of health care.

Jim Ware

In the survey the School Board asks multiple questions, clumsily disguised as serious attempts to gain parents' views for future decisions. The survey contains nothing more than a threat of dire outcomes designed to scare and infuriate parents into supporting $45 million in wasteful spending.

Brent Ibata

If there?s a silver lining to all of this, it?s that when we find the dead fish, we?re also finding healthy fish in the same area. We have representatives from [U.S. Geological Survey] and the United States Fish and Wildlife checking for everything. The experts are in the right place at the right time. Until we find a cause and implement a solution, we are going to continue to be out there.

Don Kain

Through the public survey and also views expressed by council members, we have a list of types of businesses people would like to see located in downtown Alexandria.

Naomi Compton

Automotive execs in our survey have been predicting market share advances by Asian brands for years now. Asian brands have been successful at bringing the right product to the market quickly while being flexible in their manufacturing processes to respond to changes in demand.

Betsy Meter

The overall PMI shows we are still in rate cut territory. But the PMI has been below this (current) level and the ECB has not cut rates, so this survey on its own will add little to the chance of a rate cut.

Chris Williamson

The January survey results imply that trade conditions may not be as vigorous as they were in 2004 and 2005, but expectations are still quite high. Fewer new orders and a slow down in supplier delivery negatively affected trade conditions in January.

Richard Downing

Ladies and gentlemen, there are moments in the lives of nations and peoples when it is incumbent upon those known for their wisdom and clarity of vision to survey the problem, with all its complexities and vain memories, in a bold drive toward new ho.

Anwar Sadat

The September data indicate a general weakening in the job picture nationwide -- a trend we were seeing before the recent hurricanes, ... That data is consistent with the latest CEO Confidence Survey, which is also down.

Ken Goldstein

There is no good information on the undocumented. This is intrinsically a hard-to-survey population.

John Mollenkopf

It's going to be a comprehensive survey on business and public-policy issues, particularly those which affect Fairfield County, such as transportation, energy issues, work force and health care.

Peter Gioia

People would pay about $3,000 to $5,000 for this exam if it was done in a doctor's office. If they participate in this survey, they get the results for free and have the opportunity to be part of a national study.

Sherryl Willhoit

Survey respondents are facing flat job growth figures and are mirroring the concerns expressed in other surveys about the national economy, which has slowed considerably from solid growth in the first three quarters of 2005. Purchasing managers are displaying mixed signals looking forward into 2006.

Peter Gioia

When you apply for these grants and you want to do surveys, the state wants to know that you?re going to do something with that survey. We need this district commission in place, so the state sees it as a legitimate effort to promote historical preservation.

Karen Minkel

We were very interested in making this happen, but we just couldn't do it. All of us will survey kids in the spring and early fall.

Brad Minter

I don't think we need more regulation and more oversight. ... What we need are tools that measure quality of care. A bad survey may be the consequence of how a single employee dealt with a single resident.

Carl Young

The survey shows that business conditions are satisfactory but could be better.

Peter Hendy

Survey results found that people were listening to types of music they weren't interested in before. Country music and folk music for example.

Mark Kotkin

The plan last year didn't reflect the priorities of today's students. We started from scratch early this fall, and the concepts we're putting forward now are based entirely on student priorities identified through the survey.

Adam Robinson

It shows what's possible with the combination of a massive ground-based survey and the imaging capability of the Hubble. Our fondest hope is that this is a poster child for why we need something like the Hubble.

Adam Bolton

Usually, if we expect hurricane force winds, the port will be closed and will remain closed until the storm has passed and we've had the chance to survey the channel and make sure there's no debris or anything floating or sunk that will impede vessel traffic.

Larry Greene

There was a committed audience for Headland over summer but it was slightly under, only slightly, where we needed it to be to continue in the [official] survey [period].

Tim Worner

For a population of 100,000 it is sufficient to survey 600 people.

Fernando Tuesta

Having a survey without bias is clearly the goal here. Surveys are tricky. You can load a question and I'd like to really avoid that. We'll make the questions as neutral as possible.

Chris Mickelsen

Every survey shows that blacks are the group that most wants to be unionized.

Richard Freeman

What we found is that ... the (survey) results mirrored what we were already doing.

Brent Stolzenthaler

We are surveying the country for opportunities.

Tim Mcnulty

We are very excited about the release of Ultimate Survey Enterprise version 3.0, as it has been largely built on customer feedback and our company's underlying goals.

John Craven

Nobody knows the full extent of the damage. The speculation is that it will be worse than Ivan, but we won't really know for days, until oil companies get personnel out there and survey the damage.

Marshall Steeves

An algorithm, a survey or political judgment.

John Moores

(Fish and Game) do the same thing each survey but conditions change. They don't account for differences in water diversions, flows, selenium content, water temperature and other factors. Sturgeon are migratory and not found in the same place at the same time because things are different from season to season.

Barry Canevaro

The survey will give us a precise, in-depth picture of the tourists we attract and hope to attract. We'll learn about their preferences, attitudes and interests; the reasons they choose to go one place versus another.

Laurie Paolicelli

The county can hire any registered engineer to conduct a speed survey. There many companies throughout the area qualified to do such a study.

Gina Busscher

They were asked to do some site survey. They never got in the water.

Judy Orihuela

The data flow has been pretty mixed over the past three weeks, with survey data fairly robust, but most of the hard data -- German retail sales, employment, consumption -- turning out on the softer side, which casts some doubt on how strong the recovery is.

Michael Hume

The survey certainly shows that the emphasis (by voters) is on quality, not quantity. That, of course, is a major shift from what we normally focus and report on in the country.

Donna Klein

That's twice the amount from the 2001 survey.

Lt. Edwin Torres

Quite honestly, when we first began the survey, the financial applications seemed to be the ones people most wanted. As you can see, however, things have changed quite a bit. Common areas now seem to be Internet publication, design, and multimedia. These types of trends have not always been so.

Scott Morris

We've been surveying the existing customers to get feedback from them on possible changes. We've had requests from 52X riders for additional stops so they can get to their workplaces.

Jill Cappadoro

We were really successful in obtaining a large sample size this year. Without (hunters') cooperation, we would have been unable to survey the health of this herd.

Jill Miller

The partnership of ZipSurvey(TM) and XToolsCRM combines the unique benefits of two industry-leading software platforms, ... XToolsCRM is the leading provider of On-Demand CRM technology in China and the introduction of ZipSurvey(TM) opens a new alternative for CRM customers seeking to deploy an exceptionally powerful, yet affordable business and customer survey solution.

Christopher Wright

As the buildings age and they approach 15 to 20 years of age certain things need replacement. In the citizen survey a desire was also expressed for additional safety and security at the campuses so we are looking at expanding security through surveillance and campus card access systems.

Sid Grant

According to a recent survey, by the time The South Beach Diet 'Beach In a Box' completes its nine-city tour, most people will have already quit their New Years' diet resolutions.

Howard Brandeisky

We'll apply for more funding in June. This part will complete the downtown survey. We'll find where all the utilities are currently located with the survey.

Sarah Phillips

The timing for this survey couldn't be better. It makes our case for what we all know in the (tourism) industry.

Arlene White

They were looking for more equity within a district and we decided to survey the schools. Some people said they were playing in a district with schools twice our size and some of the games weren't competitive.

Charles Breithaupt

We'll do the survey and we'll get them (PNS) certified and they'll be part of the system. We've been straightforward with them since they first contacted us, and we're going to continue to be straightforward with them.

Patrick Flood

The survey just looked at registered Latino voters. Had it included non-voters and non-citizens, the numbers likely would have been different.

Mark Dicamillo

The community survey is just one of the many ways... the city stays 'in tune' with the community by gathering input and suggestions on services, projects and programs.

Fred Cohn

Automotive executives in our survey have been predicting market share advances by Asian brands for years now.

Betsy Meter

We're going to do a survey.

Charles Pyle

Hopefully, the results of this survey will help publishers see that moving in the right direction doesn't have to cost them more.

Tyson Miller

It was not a statistical analysis of what actually happens on the highway. It was a survey of officers asking them if they discriminated based on race. It was a study that already knew what answer it would come up with.

Kent Willis

The results of this QSBO survey suggest the economy is presently in the throes of a potential acute slowdown.

Brent Layton

We don't have to take deterioration (in the government survey) for the current quarter so seriously.

Takashi Ushio

There is a strong wait-and-see mode ahead of key economic events in the US, including tomorrow's GDP release and next week's FOMC meeting. This weighed on the euro despite a supportive strong German IFO survey.

Yasuhisa Ishida

Our study is all facts, ... We don't do a community survey.

Robert Rogers

Under this stone, reader, survey / Dead Sir John Vanbrugh's house of clay. / Lie heavy on him, Earth! For he / Laid many heavy loads on thee!

Abel Evans

[On rare occasions, research recruiters randomly call people listed in the phone book, but] one problem with that is that people think it's too good to be true, so they're not interested, ... A lot of times, we can't just use the general population - like if we're doing a survey on denture cream.

Patricia Palmer

Yesterday's quarterly survey by the Ministry of Finance supports our view that any improvement in business sentiment stalled in the March quarter but this was largely due to a reaction to accelerated growth in the previous quarter.

Seiji Shiraishi

We don't use the survey anymore because we thought the concerns of the ACLU were valid.

Chris Plante

Considering that, one of the more practical actions we took (Thursday and Friday morning) is to survey the plant property for items that could become projectiles – loose scaffolding, trash cans and any other heavy debris.

Mike Childress

A (Harris Poll) survey showed that two-thirds of the American people don't know all the words to our national anthem, probably because of cuts in school music programs.

Vanessa Mason

This is unprecedented since our firm began surveying tech skills pay in 2000.

David Foote

The best factor is avoid known mine areas. In Illinois, there have been over 4,000 mines, and we're in the process of trying to get every mine map that we possibly can and eventually those will be available online. Now they can look at the Illinois Geological Survey.

Everyone should be responsible for his or her own health, but I think what this survey shows is how much more dependent husbands are on their wives than wives are on their husbands (when it comes to) health issues. This difference is pretty well established in gender roles.

Ross Stolzenberg

We've done an independent survey together with SGX to try to ascertain the level of interest. The survey results have been quite positive.

How do you survey all the food establishments in the state?

Doug Lipton

The market will therefore be eyeing today's ISM report and Friday's University of Michigan survey with this in mind.

Simon Derrick

The plan is simply to go up and survey the wreckage, see what condition it's in and whether it's relatively intact or not relatively intact.

Phil Nuytten

I think we all agree that a big project like this requires a full and thorough survey.

Sergei Razov

The survey has provided a relatively good one-quarter lead on annual US GDP growth over the past 15 or so years - the correlation is 0.69.

The need for global PR is increasing as more U.S. companies of all sizes venture into overseas markets. Not surprisingly, the survey data shows there's a gap between the need and execution of international programs, and it's tied to poor communication between the various global PR hubs.

Despite the cold weather, more than 2,000 concerned New Yorkers are taking part in HOPE 2006 and will be surveying city streets, parks and other public spaces to count the number of street homeless.

Angela Allen

We will send out a survey to see what kids want in the store.

The 30-year [fixed-rate mortgage] came in under 6 percent for the last 22 weeks of this year. As a matter of fact, mortgage rates in 2004 averaged around 5.84 percent, the second lowest annual rate ever recorded in the history of Freddie Mac's Primary Mortgage Market Survey.
