Let us change our traditional attitude to the construction of programs. Instead of imagining that our main task is to instruct a computer what to do, let us concentrate rather on explaining to human beings what we want a computer to do.

Donald Knuth

It's not an unsubstantial task to file and issue a patent. That's typically above and beyond the rest of the workload so we do have incentives to take on that additional workload.

Mark Durcan

The expansion in the coverage of said declaration was proposed by the Anti-Money Laundering Council in order to comply with the Financial Action Task Force's Special Recommendation IX, which requires countries to have measures in place, including a declaration system or other disclosure obligation.

Amando Tetangco

And though hard be the task, 'Keep a stiff upper lip'.

Phoebe Cary

At times, it seemed like an overwhelming task. Because the set is all connected, we couldn't change any one part of it. We just had to keep going.

Bob Ecker

The problem was there was a small area to launch boats and we didn't have the assets there to support the task forces and deploy them. And it would've overloaded the system, which compounded the problem.

Paul Bailey

They took on a seemingly insurmountable task.

George Ryan

I really like this group. Every single guy is very serious and very focused and, knowing my personality, that's big. They all work hard, almost like blue-collar workers, no nonsense, they get after the task and get it done.

Jim Leavitt

It is both a long-term goal and an urgent immediate task.

Chen Xiwen

We should get the internal plaza done first, ... I have been pushing for that as both mayor and as head of the Mayoral Task Force. I want it opened up and to see people use it again. It's probably the easiest part of the work to do. Let's get it open and let's decorate it in time for Christmas, get a large Christmas tree in there, and say Galway city centre is open for business again.

Brian Walsh

They provide students with a safe and calm space and keep them on task and in a routine.

Marilynn Mueller

The people who are listening at the moment are those who are part of the central administration, ... President McCormick has arranged it so that the alternative proposals are posted on the task force's homepage.

Barry Qualls

Our schools face the herculean task of perpetuating values and attitudes for which many in our society have little regard. Schools cannot survive without discipline. Schools cannot survive without a sense of order and decorum. Schools cannot survive without rules and the adherence to those rules.

Matthew Farley

He has failed completely to manage the process effectively. He has shown a glaring inability to comprehend the nature and significance of the task he is asked to perform.

Ronnie Mamba

[When the group returned to camp, the harvesters had bags full of green cones and branches, and sticky fingers from the inevitable sap that comes with the task.] The second part of the process is to extract the pine nuts out of the green cones, ... They have to be heat treated to extract the pine nuts.

Daniel Mccarthy

That one task needs to be a priority.

Diane Ross

That's been very motivating. Last year was last year. We had our problems or whatever, and we know everybody is focusing on the secondary. We want the task, and we're going to step up.

Anthony Miller

When you include the issues that can occur during the processing and distribution stages as well as transport, designing an ocean cargo policy that addresses the full scope of potential pitfalls can be a formidable task. The broad, automatic features and streamlined reporting process offered through Cargo Elite makes it an ideal product for importers and exporters.

George Butler

I try to be a mother and a father but it's a Herculean task.

Howard Kavaler

Denis brings a wealth of knowledge and experience to the task of steering our strategic direction. The critical roles he has played in designing and developing military and Federal Government IT systems and his experience working for a number of large federal contractors make him ideally suited for this role.

Chuck Saffell

The task force feels as though the curriculum should give students an option for a variety of courses, including those that were closed off to students from other colleges in the past. We don't think any campus, except Douglass, should really be built around one theme.

Barry Qualls

For to do things with care is the closest thing to love that I know the cape of grace falling softly about the shoulders as we focus on the task at hand whether it be to listen or to leave or to learn.

Jane Siberry

For those people who are not up to the task physically, this at least gives them another option.

Sen. Joyce Mulliken

It's just a daunting task and we've basically got about 90 days to pull it off. We're going to need a lot of help.

Paul Hoolahan

He's really focused. He knows what has to be done. He's focused on the task at hand. He wants to have a very big year, and I think that he is. He's a senior now. He's matured and he knows what has to be done. He has definitely stepped up and become the leader that we need on defense.

Joe Anoai

We closed that season out with the first game of this season. There is always the danger, that in the back of your head you won't be ready for this game, but I think ... everybody is really focused on the task at hand.

Joe Herber

He fought for this community, ... And whether he succeeded or not, whether each task he took on was successful or not, it was the fight that was important — that 'By God, I stood up for my community and fought for 'em, and I'll do it next time too.'

John Beal

We have a huge task going into Warsaw. I've never went to Warsaw and had an easy game. It's a great football tradition, and we're expecting another big battle.

Ted Lepage

The task of the state and the Louisiana Recovery Authority is to really gather everything together and try to help rebuild the state.

Walter Leger

There are going to be many hours of upfront to get this under way, and even after that it will be a weekly ongoing task forever.

Dan Fulscher

If generating revenue requires that you continue to develop relationships with clients, that's the most important management task you have to worry about transferring. Because that's the hardest.

Brent Carey

Success tends to go not to the person who is error-free, because he also tends to be risk-averse. Rather it goes to the person who recognizes that life is pretty much a percentage business. It isn't making mistakes that's critical; it's correcting them and getting on with the principal task.

Donald H. Rumsfeld

Due to the ease-of-use and low maintenance costs, Ethernet has become broadly used in applications as varied as facilities management and utility and vending machine monitoring. As the industry's smallest, highest performance embedded Ethernet controller, the new CP220x simplifies our customers' task of adding embedded Ethernet capability to any product that has access to an Ethernet network.

Derrell Coker

Building a harmonious socialist society is a major task put forth by our Party in making the Chinese society more affluent and ushering in new advancement of the socialist cause with Chinese characteristics.

Li Changchun

The requirement was that the Grand Alliance system would be better than all four systems in all respects, which was an interesting task.

Richard Citta

If at the end of May we don't, we'll reform, regroup, decide how we're going to go about it, but if the task force can't come up with the bill, I'm going to push mine, and go ahead and make the changes in it that we've been working on now for a year or two and just go for it.

Charlie Norwood

We knew they were going to give it their best. They have a lot of character and a lot of veterans over there. We weren't up to the task. They are right back in this series.

Rob Blake

I'm very proud of the task force for the work they've put into this project. Our goal all along has been to get good information for the public so they can decide the issue. I think we have done that. Our work is nearly done. Soon, the issue will be in the hands of the people.

Reuben Hoff Jr

Cutting waste is a politically difficult task because almost every program has an active constituency that profits from the status quo, ... But Sen. Chambliss recognizes that the federal government must set priorities. He has taken a long- term view of the nation's fiscal problems and makes a serious effort to tackle the enormous debt being left to future generations.

Tom Schatz

The task force will function like an ad hoc, ex officio board committee. There's a fine line between managing the business of Ko-Thi and being advisory. At the end of the day, the committee will be managed by Ko-Thi and report to Ko-Thi, not to UPAF.

Christine Harris

We have shown that it is credible for a drawing medium to exist that understands what you are sketching, and can then assist with the task in some way.

Randall Davis

Southwest has a great defense. We have a big task ahead of us.

Bobby Crockett

Before the start of the season we gave ourselves the task of reaching the AFC Champions League final and we are well-placed to execute that task.

Valeri Nepomniatchi

The task force has standing instructions that if it finds any information that would lead it to believe that there should be an independent counsel they're to bring this to our attention immediately and that has not occurred in this case.

Jamie Gorelick

It is kind of difficult to communicate complex emotion in a car – jealousy, passive aggression – the puppeteers made it look effortless but it is a complex task to figure out.

Angela Robinson

This is a bigger task than the whole Diocese of the Arctic can do, so we're reaching out all across Canada, to other Anglican churches, to individuals, to corporations and we're reaching out to foundations.

Doug Little

Nobody pretends to think that that $2 billion is enough for the task at hand.

Robert Twilley

It's consistent with the chancellor's task force and consistent with the belief that a strong athletics department is important to a vibrant university community.

Bob Samples

Their first task is to get down there and make contact with the crew and the craft, and then negotiate the safe return of both.

Sean Kelly

We are confident that they will be up to the task of securing polling stations.

William Webster

To build may have to be the slow and laborious task of years. To destroy can be the thoughtless act of a single day.

Sir Winston Churchill

You have a four-fold life to live: a body, a brain, a heart and a soul . . . these are your living tools. To use and develop them is not a task. . . . It is a golden opportunity.

William Danforth

I am deeply honored to have been entrusted with this task. The President is the trustee of one of the world's greatest institutions.

Rosalyn Higgins

I did think it a little ironic that we can have two task force meetings and a public hearing and have a half-cent sales tax within six months but we still don't have a clear direction on a nonsmoking ordinance.

Dave Parker

It's a disparate mix--there are so many different styles of joint venture; there's huge pressure on the U.S. It's a real tricky job. It's a noble task to try and gather all those places under one roof, but Paul Donovan has got a lot of sleepless nights ahead of him.

Robin Hearn

They're working really hard. They're engaged already. Getting 150 eighth-graders on task in under five minutes is really neat.

Shannon Baker

For liberty, we need a respected judiciary. For the sake of preserving our liberty, we need to insist that the courts begin again to deserve the respect from a free people that makes their work possible. Bringing such discipline to the judiciary is, at bottom, a political task. It is one more essential job that only a principled and vigilant citizenry can accomplish.

Alan Keyes

It would not give them the information they want. This dog will have been trained long for the task and subjected to similar simulated conditions, and this flight is just another experience of the same sort.

William Lane

STT Trainer's demo-mode simulations are ideal for self-service end-user support. Seeing the task being performed on your screen is much more effective than reading how to do it and then trying to figure it out on your own through trial and error.

Chip Schuneman

In any case, the task of finding fresh approaches to opera and to choral music will be inherited by the future.

George Crumb

...Half of its task is getting people in the stores on a more frequent basis.

Jeff Stinson

This indictment marks an important milestone in the life of the president's Corporate Fraud Task Force.

James Comey

I was shocked and disappointed because I think she's done a fabulous job. She's so personable. She got the campus open and that was not an easy task. She is dedicated, a go-getter, approachable, intelligent.

Leslie Santos

Safety education on the farm, especially for children, is a crucial initiative for the rural communities, ... ADM is proud to support FS4JK as they undertake the important task of educating farmers and their families about how to keep children safe on and around the farm.

Brian Peterson

[For one thing, the man of the hour is a cartoon.] We tend to work very closely with our clients, ... People say one thing -- like, 'Oh, I always go over here when I'm doing this task' -- and then they do exactly the opposite thing. So for our projects, we do a lot of observational research. We even take them out on the research with us.

Fred Dust

It's important to both Secretary Baker and me that we not raise expectations here. We know that whatever we do will be difficult. We really do not yet know how difficult this task will be.

Halee Hamilton

The North American IPv6 Task Force does not agree that IPv6 is not warranted as a significant investment for the U.S. government. It absolutely is required for the Defense Department and for the Department of Homeland Security. It's also required for any future hope of getting to next-generation networks and getting to benefits like mobility and widespread use of personal devices.

Jim Bound

The task at hand is what's on the players' minds right now. Everyone's starting to really think about the playoffs and that's what comes first for us. We've got to play well so we can make it far this year. If we make it far, then guys are going to be back next year.

Ryan Jorde

I'd rather get the two points. They made it closer than I liked, but our guys were up to the task.

Bryan Bridges

You're already starting with a person whose brain is clearly shown to be abnormal and now you're putting all these chemicals in there trying to rearrange things -- it's a daunting task.

John Bederka

Any activity a driver engages in, besides the task of driving, has the potential to distract.

Tom Wheeler

The first task of whites in these struggles is to be vocal and visible.

Anne Braden

He is definitely the best (on the team) at keeping his composure, staying focused, and on task during his matches. When I say his name, I always think of toughness. He is extremely mentally tough for his age.

Lee Thompson

The University through these meetings is advised of any particular threats that the terrorism task force may identify from time to time, and it's good for the University to know about that.

Mark Nickel

Everything that God created is potentially holy, and our task as humans is to find that holiness in seemingly unholy situations. When we can do this, we will have learned to nurture our souls.

Rabbi Harold Kushner

In 2006, our number one task is to persist in the Strike Hard campaign, strictly punish crimes that subvert state power and try to split the country.

Xiao Yang

They are not getting hurt in some frivolous hobby. They are hurt applying themselves to the exact task they've been hired to do. This is a risk that ought to be shared in a fairer way.

Leigh Steinberg

So we appreciate when the president used the word 'negotiate' that that might mislead people, so to clarify people it's to task our people to work up options, and that's all that's happening.

Sandra Buckler

He's had some meetings with his staff about putting together a... task force is not the right word, but a group of people to analyze what different things we can look at that might get us to the heart of what's happening.

Stephen Mandel

That's no easy task for any team. But it was even tougher to beat a team that's as good as Stratford.

Travis Dotterer

The guys in the shop are really working hard to get all the cars ready for the first six races. Ricky Pearson is a great leader, with lots of contacts and resources. After the Daytona test, we had to do some massaging on the bodies of the speedway cars but the guys stayed on-task and got the intermediate cars ready for Vegas and they never missed a beat.

Tim Sauter

The Homewood (campus) Arts Task Force, a group put together by the provost, concluded recently that we need more, and more modern facilities, including performing space.

Dennis O'shea

We all knew about the task ahead of us, but we didn't know about the task ahead of us. It was kind of like a culture shock.

Corey Mays

The task consumers face will be quite challenging. Because nearly every plan has a unique plan design, even researchers like myself find it challenging to sort out the choices.

Jack Hoadley

Our task is trying to beat a benchmark. In order to do that, we have to deviate from a benchmark in some way. But you also have to be mindful of the extent of risk that you are taking.

Douglas Roberts

The task of the leader is to get his people from where they are to where they have not been.

Henry Kissinger

The crew who were in the vehicle would have been a little shaken up, but they've carried on with their task.

Maj. Scott Lundy

Because we see prevention as so inclusive, the task we have set for ourselves is very difficult and won't likely be accomplished for decades. But if we can lessen the odds that even one person will develop cancer, or suffer or die from it, we have moved one step closer to our goal. It is that march of progress over time that will make a difference in the future.

Bernard Levin

[The fight for freedom was] a daunting task, ... but he did it like his comrades - without fanfare, without hesitation, with great pride and determination.

Adrienne Clarkson

There was just no other way to play it. There was no question this was a man who was tortured and troubled and filled with so many inconsistencies, plus the pain of dealing with the shocking task he was asked to undertake.

Dougray Scott

While we have made significant progress, the work of the task force is far from over.

James Johnson

The committee has the task of resolving any comments anyone has made regarding the standard. To slow that process down wouldn't require a vote, just participation.

Pamela Jones

Custom operators often own superior equipment and can accomplish the task in a shorter time. One problem that can occur with this method is not being able to schedule the custom operator at the best time for harvest.

David Whitson

My task is not to defer to our worst fears, but to interpret and apply the law, in this case, the Freedom of Information Act, which advances values important to our society, transparency and accountability in government.

Alvin Hellerstein

Nevertheless Khalil carried a miraculous task and has been the only link between President Saddam and the outside world.

Issam Ghazzawi

We are moving on to the hard task of the physical recovery of our miners so the families can start their mourning.

Xavier Garcia

Sometimes when girls expect to lose, then they lose. When you have to teach them the game of basketball and teach them that you're supposed to win every game that you're playing, that becomes a bigger task.

Avery Swarn

I try to take pride in leaving stuff behind. The next day I come to the field and yesterday's over with and today's what it's all about, and it's not about tomorrow. It's just about your task at hand. I think that helps in that kind of role. You've got to be able to forget the bad stuff.

Ryan Dempster

We are determined to cooperate with the Iraqi government, ... We are determined to help whatever we can help so that the suffering of the Iraqi people, which is painful for us, could be stopped. And this is a major task that my government is undertaking all the time.

Fayssal Mekdad

On that day let us solemnly remember the sacrifices of all those who fought so valiantly, on the seas, in the air, and on foreign shores, to preserve our heritage of freedom, and let us reconsecrate ourselves to the task of promoting an enduring peace so that all their efforts shall not have been in vain.

Dwight D. Eisenhower

Internet crime has become the new wave of crime against children, ... Belmont County Sheriff Fred Thompson's participation in this statewide task force will hold Internet pedophiles accountable and ensure they are apprehended and punished.

Bill Mason

Our common language is English. And our common task is to ensure that our non-English-speaking children learn this common language.

William Bennett

It's nice to get a chance to go out there and show what I can do. (My confidence) has gone up a lot. I'm a pretty confident player. I know there's a reason I've been given a chance. I just need to go out there and not play scared and be ready to take on the task at hand.

Aimee Litka

We now accept the fact that learning is a lifelong process of keeping abreast of change. And the most pressing task is to teach people how to learn.

Peter F. Drucker

Mr. Koizumi's task is enormous and cannot wait.

Martin Schulz

Bringing a lake around once it's been impaired is not an easy task.

Jim Hodgson

The series is going to be very tough, especially the Australian leg of the tour. It's a big task for us to regroup and get back to winning ways.

Sanath Jayasuriya

Never help a child with a task at which he feels he can succeed.

Maria Montessori

The long run is a misleading guide to current affairs. In the long run we are all dead. Economists set themselves too easy, too useless a task if in tempestuous seasons they can only tell us that when the storm is past the ocean is flat again.

John Maynard Keynes

We should get a flood of applicants. A couple of guys from our current staff will probably apply, too. We're going to open it up and look at every application, so it will be an arduous task.

Archie Berry

The figures regarding the lost three-month-old file may seem extraordinary, but they exemplify how traditional file journaling during backup is not up to the complex task of managing offline files for long periods of time, which archiving and media management technology address.

Patrick Dowling

The selection panel had a daunting task to choose 20 players for the game, but we do fell that this group of young, talented players will put on an excellent display of basketball skill and good sportsmanship.

Dan Fuller

I think we should form a European influenza task force that brings together all our knowledge, so that if you have outbreaks in the future you could form delegations to work together with local experts in the area where it occurs.

Albert Osterhaus

A lot of knowledge in any kind of an organization is what we call task knowledge. These are things that people who have been there a long time understand are important, but they may not know how to talk about them. It's often called the culture of the organization.

Howard Gardner

The task force will open up a whole array of choices to save and conserve. We want to reach our goal of 20 percent by 2010.

Lindsay Mathews

Orlaith was the best kisser and she had a fantastic set of boobs on her as well. Even though I got a custard pie off her in the Romeo and Juliet task, I still got a snog off her. She was fit and had the best fake boobs I've ever seen.

Makosi Musambasi

This is a county survey and, however you cut this up, the mayor convened the housing task force.

Mel Rapozo

The task force will look at these technologies and make a recommendation to the attorney general, who is authorized to approve a list of less-lethal ammunition for law enforcement in New Jersey.

Peter Aseltine

The stakes are very high, ... We're telling our American friends: 'We can do it together. We can do Baghdad together. We can do Iraq together. We, the Iraqi people together with the American liberators and the British liberators, we can achieve the task of getting rid of Saddam Hussein and his terrorist allies.' .

Barham Saleh

We want to make sure there are no bugs in it and, when we do go live with it, it will be ready to go. It's an enormously complex task to get all this information entered into this thing.

Jack Cheevers

She's real task-oriented. I ask her to do something and she's already done it. She's a big piece of the puzzle around here.

Roy Brown

It's going to be hard. It's a complicated task. I think Siebel just made it significantly more complex at a relatively late date.

Josh Greenbaum

My job is to get pitchers better. Walking into the Atlanta Braves [organization], you know the history and the success the staffs have had here. It's a task I'm looking forward to the challenge of.

Roger Mcdowell

In addition, we want to use a similar task in humans to that used in this study to see if patients with schizophrenia have similar deficits in cognition as we observed in our experimental mice. This will help determine whether our genetically altered animals provide a good model of the psychosis associated with schizophrenia.

Dr. Robert Greene

It shouldn't be that big of a task [to get a new terminal].

Webb Brown

We went back on task at 8.00 this morning.

Giles Morgan

At the end of the day, downloading software was a task that takes time and fortitude from consumers.

Karim Meghji

I thought our guys played well and were focused. The rain was a factor, but we didn't let it bother us. That shows we were focused on the task at hand.

Allen Plyler

Not everybody can come to Olympia, which is where the task force meetings are held.

Diana Stadden

This is a supremely difficult diplomatic task. It is negotiating with multiple parties, dealing with the Israeli public that is reluctant to make concessions on either track and certainly is reluctant to make simultaneously large concessions on all tracks.

Robert Satloff

Last year, Gov. Matt Blunt formulated a Medicaid Commission to study the various Medicaid programs funded by the state. This commission was charged with the task of looking at the current structure and making recommendations for the future of long-term care.

Teresa Mcculloch

We're not an uptight bunch. We just like to have fun. A lot of coaches like the team to be quiet and focused before a game. The way we focus is to clown around. We think about the task at hand. But we don't worry. We like to have fun, study and practice hard.

Tyrus Thomas

Accomplishing such a daunting task much earlier than originally scheduled demonstrates the fighting spirit of our work force.

Philip Teel

The Committee had an incredibly difficult task in narrowing down the nation's top 30 women's players. This list represents the elite of college basketball, and our entire team at the Wooden Award is excited to see the best players in the nation prove their case as basketball's player of the year.

Mike Solum

Our region's accomplishments in reducing income poverty are now well recognized, but an immense task lies ahead of us.

Haruhiko Kuroda

A lot of things have changed since that task force made its recommendation. In the current climate, the applications of this technology for the Drug Enforcement Administration seem more promising than the applications for the development of a drug-free industrial hemp plant.

George Weiblen

This task force was created to address these issues of bowling ball performance.

Michael Carroll

We will propose a committee of inquiry with the task of clearing up everything about el-Masri, but also focusing on the question of involvement in the war in Iraq.

Renate Kuenast

We had two meetings here (with Louisiana missing people hotline officials) about forwarding Mississippi information to us. That didn't happen. They sat on this information. We had our missing person task force up and going and we were getting a lot of stuff done. We were able to track a lot of people down.

Gary Hargrove

It shoulders the holy task of maintaining the security and unity of the state -- and provides an important guarantee for the task of building a comprehensive, well-off society.

Jiang Zemin

The biggest thing I learned from this is to choose your teammates wisely, because you have to work with them for six months, and to set progress goals and stick to them in order to complete the task at hand in time to review your work and make necessary changes.

Kyle Smith

My first meeting is March 6 in Washington, D.C., where I will find out who the other commissioners are and when I'll get a better idea of what the task is and what the calendar is going to look like.

Andrea Messina

They understand if they want to be successful in life, they've got to be able to handle multi-tasking. I think guys are starting to realize that, and they want to be successful.

Greg Brunner

He was in the general vicinity, he was multi-tasking and in fact, was there during parts of the procedure but not there during the entire insertion to removal of the device.

Paul Levy

There's energy and leadership at the top, but there is a task to be done in getting parents and kids to understand some of the ideas. You can do a lot from the top, but you can't do everything. Schools are local. The leadership needs to reach out and help the public understand the challenge.

Jean Johnson

We're hoping to see strong regulations down the road. The challenge is how to do that. As with any task force, it depends on what happens to the recommendations.

Damien Newton

All three of them, their goal is to medal. Now, that's a tall task. But I think it's a worthy goal.

Mike Zeyen

A prime task of the WHO experts and their Chinese counterparts will be to conclusively decide if the laboratory was indeed the source of these people's infections.

Bob Dietz

This is a crucial game for us and it could put us on our way. It's going to be a very busy Easter period - the task ahead is in our own hands and now we have to go out there and do the business.

Peter Nicholas

The government will be marshaling its efforts in the coming weeks to bolster its case against Lay, but it will be a tough task.

Christopher Bebel

We have confidence and capability to fulfill the glorious task of the motherland and the people.

Fei Junlong

M working with the White House Task Force on Hurricane Katrina Response in order to find ways that we can help these children in any way we can. We will stick with these communities for as long as it takes to get them back on their feet.

Margaret Spellings

I have witnessed the tremendous energy of the masses. On this foundation it is possible to accomplish any task whatsoever.

Mao Zedong

First we have to get it into orbit, which is not an easy task.

Doug Mccuistion

In 1996, Congress gave us a very difficult task, which is to bring these rules up to date in the modern media marketplace.

Michael Powell

Planning a wedding is no small task. By simplifying stamp buying, couples can mark off one item on their check list.

Delores Killette

When we shut down our missing persons operation, all of a sudden here they come... dropping in all these files. Now we have to re-task people. We're trying to work it in with our regular duties.

Gary Hargrove

Obviously, their big guys have presented a tough task for a lot of people. They've also lost to some really good teams.

Bob Carter

Until now we cannot get on the with task of disputing the illegality of the trial or any charge because no official document has been presented so far. It's our right to see the charges.

Abdel Haq Alani

We really have to maximize the engagement of the public in this enterprise. There will never be enough county employees to properly perform the task. We have to constantly be seeking ways to engage the community.

John Ball

This is the first time I have seen an entire state create task forces to reduce registration failure. I have not seen such an improvement . . . as I have in Illinois.

Laura Ahearn

The primary task is to help them develop a context ... which becomes the experience they already know. It helps kind of ground them in some history so it doesn't feel like such a random thing.

Joe Ferry

Nothing I say here could possibly be construed as making light of those horrible acts of violence, or of the responsibility imposed on the UK and other governments to keep the public safe, or of the difficult and dangerous task performed by the police and intelligence services.

Cherie Blair

The problem with items is that someone has to pick through them to find the gems and discard the trash, and believe me there's a lot of trash, ... And no one has time in the Gulf states right now to perform that task.

Leslie Johnson

There is real relief on board, it hasn't been the most ideal way to start but we are really happy to be able to get on with the task of challenging the Jules Verne record.

Ellen Macarthur

It began as a task force because minority businesses in the area were not as well seen. We wanted them to have access to the chamber and its resources, so we created a steering committee.

Ellen Kaminsky

We've been working on and implementing training and policy guidance to make sure we're prepared globally. We have to ensure we have the surveillance in place, installation preparedness, global understanding and a stockpile of necessary components to mount an effective medical response. It's an enormous task.

Ellen Embrey

Talented, experienced leaders like these, who have stepped forward and committed to the critical task of transforming urban school systems, offer new promise to raising student achievement for every student in our urban centers. We are excited to train this new class with the skills necessary to effectively manage an urban school district.

Eli Broad

[Then, there is the immense challenge of the actual task she has embraced: To transform the thinking of an entire province of gas-guzzling, car-loving, fossil-fuel addicts.] We really have to make profound changes, ... I'm really looking forward to working hard and diligently . . . To make sure we can change our ways and fulfill our responsibility to future generations.

Elizabeth Weir

Each gender may be innately better at certain tasks, but that doesn't mean that they aren't capable of trying any task.

Elizabeth Lonsdorf

The legislature has given us the task of protecting consumers who pay someone else to prepare their tax returns. One of the ways we're doing this is by providing a free new Internet tool, which helps consumers find tax preparers who are legally qualified to prepare tax returns.

Elaine Lyttleton

That's the strong point of this task force is that we've got diverse people coming from four diverse agencies to form one group of highly motivated, skilled personnel that, in a moment's notice, can be dispatched.

Jared Kennedy

Naturally you'll see more (campus police-JTTF partnerships) just because of the number of task forces that are up and running.

Ed Cogswell

Ed Cogswell

Every child is a thought in the mind of God, and our task is to recognize this thought and help it toward completion.

Eberhard Arnold

The most urgent task is to check water pollution to ensure the safety of drinking water, and we must win that battle.

Zhou Shengxian

An urgent task at present is to carry out nationwide publicity as quickly as possible.

Zhong Nanshan

We take a lot of pride in earning the number one seed. However, we also realize that means all the other teams will be gunning for us. It is always a little more difficult beating the same team twice in a season. Hopefully we'll be up to the task of defending our title.

Eric Shelton

I think the most difficult task for Simpson is to come up with a clear, consistent, believable story for where he was between 9:45 and eleven on the night of the murders.

Erwin Chemerinsky

The ECB differs fundamentally from the U.S. central bank, the Fed, in terms of its task and strategy.

Ernst Welteke

We had been talking to the previous owner on and off for a while, trying to figure out a way to save these prints. He said that at some point he wanted to try to catalog everything, but it's kind of an enormous task.

Eric Lin

Recipients of InfoWorld's highest honor are a sure bet if you're looking for shining examples of IT projects that have saved companies money and have helped with the day-to-day task of making things run smoothly. The InfoWorld 100 provides a forum for IT managers to get the recognition they deserve for smart projects from an audience of their peers.

Eric Knorr

Eric is a very bright young man who is likely to succeed in life. He is intelligent enough to achieve lofty goals as long as he stays on task and remains motivated.

Eric Harris

It's a great way to get more bang for your buck. I was very honored to draft that policy and head the subcommittee that created the major crimes task force.

Eric Weis

That is quite a challenge. The task is to not only qualify a full number of fencers for nationals, but to get used to the different qualifying system they are using this year.

Emmanuil Kaidanov

The opening ceremonies are a tiring enough process. If you add all the demands of being flag-bearer and with a relatively heavy racing schedule, taking on that extra task is, as they've correctly evaluated, too great a load.

Emery Holmik

Andy has a focus on improving as an overall athlete. He has focused on improving the technical aspects that will affect his performance in the pool. Andy has had to use the clock to push himself. I compliment him on this difficult task for a long season.

Elyce Kastigar

Unquestionably, it was going to be highly dangerous. Yet I felt it was quite natural to jump at the task. After all, if you don't like action and excitement, you don't go into police work. And, what the hell, I figured, nobody lives forever!
