We're short-term fans of the Australian dollar. The global demand for commodities is incredibly strong because of the global economy, which is doing very well.

Stephen Koukoulas

The most serious risk to medium-term inflation is the continuing strength of household spending, supported by a relentless housing market and rapid growth in mortgage lending.

Alan Bollard

A base closure is a pretty usable thing. It'll present a long-term opportunity as well as a short-term problem. Everybody right now is making plans.

Frank O'hara

His term coincided with a huge Republican realignment, and he reaped the benefit of it. The time was right for Rehnquist. The politics came into alignment with him.

Barry Friedman

The message is that a healthy diet early in life potentially has long-term benefits. The idea that heart disease starts in the 50s has been substantially discounted. Saturated fat is always an enemy to the arteries, at any age.

Robert Eckel

This is not a flash in the pan problem. At some point, we should arrive at true interoperability, but I don't see that happening in the short term.

David Pakman

Of course, longer-term prospects are unclear, given the current fund shortage.

Valery Lyndin

It's time Coke invest in the long-term growth of the company rather than country club dues for outgoing bosses.

Thomas Keegel

People see that there's a short-term hit in terms of designing a security architecture that caters to these devices but they don't take in the cost of dealing with an incident.

Ollie Whitehouse

The research is allocated in a way that is very high risk, on projects that are often very long term.

Bill Prindle

Merger fantasy and still strong economic data are protecting the market from a major correction. We could see another short term rally.

Markus Steinbeis

It is a simplification of the system but the detail is still unclear. The only certainty is that in the short term it will produce more work for employment lawyers.

John Philpott

At this point, women should not be taking high-dose soy supplements, especially those who are breast cancer survivors and women at increased risk for the disease. We don't have long-term data on the effects of these supplements, and there is some evidence that they could be harmful.

Bruce Trock

Environmental technology promises attractive long-term investment returns while doing something positive on a global scale.

Sean Harrigan

Today's announcement ensures that UIP will continue to operate for many years to come, while recognizing the long-term strategic importance for us as a studio to directly control our own international distribution and marketing operations.

Marc Shmuger

Long-term liability.

John Abramson

A durable, long-term U.S.-China strategic relationship is even more important now than in previous decades. The relationship will continue to grow and prosper to the mutual benefit of all peoples.

Alexander Haig

Over the medium term, it's still looking positive for Indonesia and the currency. They're going to be cautious not to scare off investors.

Sabrina Jacobs

I have no long term plans. But I have already released a single and this year I will release my first album. My record company hired producers to write songs for me this time, but in future I hope to write my own songs.

Li Yuchun

If copper wiring comes in, in a burnt format -- I hate to use that term, but that is what is often done to remove the covering from the copper -- it has lost about 50 percent of its original weight and we have no way of telling where it came from. All we can do is make sure we get valid identification from the person claiming they are the owner.

Jim Butler

The implications are a bit worrying for spreads, particularly for the corporate market. The inversion means the market thinks the Fed has tightened too much and expects short-term rates to be cut by the Fed.

David Goldman

We've got to have a longer term policy. These tax credits need to be extended.

Karl Gawell

Despite the short-term weakness in the market, we believe that our Phase II restructuring actions will drive our return to profitability and positive cash flow in fiscal year 2002.

Henry Schacht

Until we get control of the running party that this has become in the past couple of summers, we'll be running some of that longer-term monitoring with our ranger staff.

Steve Lekwa

Daft is truly a long-term Coke employee with a stellar track record. There is a good relationship and high regard there with the board, otherwise he wouldn't have become chairman.

Manny Goldman

They're moving away from bank cards and credit cards -- short-term installment debt -- into various forms of mortgage borrowing with lower interest rates and long terms.

Scott Hoyt

The travel industry is very dynamic and changing. There are a lot of opportunities where they might need to make investments to grow, and public markets can be very short-term in nature. Prides Capital is in it for the long run.

Kevin Richardson

We are on the threshold and may have already crossed the threshold of a large crisis of long-term care.

Leon Kass

But they'll look at Soriano in center field, which might be his best position long term.

Tom Verducci

After a rather successful 2005 season, our sights are now set even higher up the grid, and we feel that Bridgestone is ideally suited to the technical demands of F1 in the future and will be the best match for our 2006 car. Toyota is serious about winning in F1, and we feel that the switch to Bridgestone tires is the best option in the medium-long term.

Tsutomu Tomita

The short term will be checking with the funding partners and the project partners to assess the status of their thinking and their interest in seeking other alternatives. We will have to have those discussions shortly and assess where we stand. It's a priority for that building to be redeveloped — and ideally contributing to the tax rolls.

Andy Walker

A racially integrated community is a chronological term timed from the entrance of the first black family to the exit of the last white family.

Saul Alinsky

Whilst we do not foresee any major reduction in fuel prices in the medium term, at present the company, and the industry in general, appears to be coping satisfactorily with the exposure to a high fuel cost environment.

Toll Holdings

The term gets used a lot, but we do think this is a movie that can be carried by word of mouth.

Jim Tharp

A stock that's seen a lot of bad news is First Union, ... Here is a great stock with depressed earnings and interest rate fears. When the clouds are darkest, that's when long-term investors can really save for retirement.

David Otto

They always want everything, but when you are in a labor organization, the odds are you aren't going to get everything, ... At some point, you have to know when to hold them and when to fold them for the long-term benefit of your members.

Morgan Fairchild

It may give you a short term boost, but it's quickly followed by a dip in energy, with anxiety and irritability.

Ian Marber

The near-term inflation outlook will cause the Reserve Bank some short term concern.

Alan Oster

It's bringing the trawler industry to its knees . . . I don't see how we can survive in the long term. It's devastating.

John Olsen

The primary call to action is to provide the immediate physical needs of the homeless population in terms of food, shelter and counseling. They also run long-term recovery programs designed to break the cycle of poverty and homelessness.

Tim Campbell

I think certainly it's not good news, at least in the short term. If there is a positive spin on it, both the facilities and the employees in both the Fort Kent and Presque Isle offices have always been applauded for their high work ethic and high productivity.

Tom Stevens

The fact remains that the overwhelming majority of people who have become wealthy have become so thanks to work they found profoundly absorbing. The long term study of people who eventually became wealthy clearly reveals that their "luck" arose from.

Srully Blotnick

Recognizing that the No-Build alternative fails to address the long-term congestion problem, we believe that only the N8c and N2 alternatives are realistic prospects for a solution.

David Cole

We simply cannot compete and cannot survive long term unless we reduce our (U.S. labor) costs.

Steve Miller

Investors are sitting on profits in Mexico and are taking them now, given the nervousness in Argentina. I do not think this signals a fundamental change in the long-term trend in Mexico.

Damian Fraser

Enough. I am tired of the demonic dance (in the media over whether I will be offered a third term). I will not continue to coach the national team.

Avraham Grant

While current Sharper Image management is making progress with expense initiatives, the merchandise turnaround should take longer. In addition there is the possibility of further near-term disruptions with a potential takeover of the company. Therefore we remain on the sidelines.

Joan Storms

At a time when our party should be providing forward-thinking leadership on energy, it is truly unfortunate that some choose instead to exploit current events and perpetuate America's dangerous dependence on oil. It is time for our Republican leaders to step up and act in the long-term interest of the American people, rather than the short-term interests of the oil and gas industry.

David Jenkins

Many investors ask if the market is too high, or if it's too late to get in. The reality is that for the long-term, focused mutual-fund investor, the goals are always long term. 'Now' is always a good time to invest.

Michelle Smith

If you want to invest in a long-term Treasury security and you think inflation won't ever dip below 2 percent, this makes more sense than a nominal Treasury bond.

Casey Colton

Though we remain positive on the long-term business model and outlook, we expect concerns over pricing pressure, the back-end-loaded nature of full-year guidance and new product wins to overhang the shares medium term.

William Power

Investors need to be able to stomach this ride, must keep at the forefront of their minds that they're buying into this for the long-term, because there are lots of short-term uncertainties.

Jason Tsai

Russia increasingly lived on short-term borrowing. Now, this was an extraordinary merry-go-round.

Jeffrey Sachs

The economic environment in Australia, New Zealand and internationally, remains supportive of reasonable earnings growth in the medium term, despite the softening associated with more stable housing and high oil prices.

John Mcfarlane

Climate warming is a certainty in our future and the bottom line in this analysis is that we looked at the impact of the warming and the long-term prognosis is clear and very dire.

Tim Barnett

Boyhood is the longest time in life for a boy. The last term of the school-year is made of decades, not of weeks, and living through them is like waiting for the millennium.

Booth Tarkington

We're in an interim term right now. But we felt it was necessary to provide some increases this year.

Tom Homan

Like water rising, the market is trying to find its own level. The rally is not sustainable in the long term. There's still a lot of uncertainty.

Bryan Piskarowski

I've worked hand in hand with Cox's office. I consider her a friend. I know Judge Cox has done an excellent job in her term because I've worked in close proximity to her.

Matt Masden

We are taking steps to ensure that healthcare providers and patients are aware of the possible long-term risks of these products so that they will be used appropriately.

Dr. Steven Galson

Our preference is to seek a longer-term solution that will permit the orderly development of textile and apparel trade. But the United States will have no hesitation in walking away from a bad deal.

David Spooner

Yields could go above 2 percent in the short-term. People are focusing on the U.S. because they think it's driving the global economy's recent robust pace of growth.

Shigeru Endo

The back months in live cattle and all the feeder contracts are showing some strength. Short-term fund buying and lower grain futures boosted the feeders.

James Brooks

We think it's an ideal opportunity for not only our current medical staff but for other surgeons who can bring their patients into our facility. Our hope in the long term is to facilitate the growth.

Dr. Michael Smith

The winning farms often go into long-term contracts. We focus on quality, because that's what's sustainable.

Susie Spindler

We view health around the world as the top industry for near-term growth for us. We have hundreds of people around the world who get out of bed in the morning and think about how to transform healthcare.

Steve Shihadeh

We want to ensure that the entire Saints community sees how committed that we are to this state and how much we want to find a long-term resolution to a very difficult and complex matter.

Arnold Fielkow

Any corrective phase that will come in the near term could be a shallow one.

Joe Ismail

Despite the bankruptcies, there is still too much capacity in the industry and there has yet to be a major shakeout. It may be a year to three years before things settle down to the where long-term investors should get involved.

Charles Rotblut

This doesn't solve their problems long-term, but you can't continue to run a business and ignore the fact that your top line isn't there, so I think it's a pragmatic move. They probably can't cut their way to prosperity - sooner or later they're going to have to get their revenue line growing.

Chuck Phillips

Keep in mind those are just short-term solutions. In our minds ... we are at a very critical point where we can't accommodate a larger student population with the facilities we have.

Harold Martin

I putted like (a golf term that rhymes with 'hit' and means, um, not good) and I hit the driver every place. It wears me out chasing (the ball) every place. That wears me out.

Dan Olsen

[NEW YORK In southern Mississippi this week, Church World Service (CWS) disaster responder Tim Johnson says the agency is helping community groups begin to organize long-term recovery resources for Hurricane Katrina and Rita's most vulnerable survivors,] but, ... long-term recovery looks a long way off for many along the Gulf Coast and even farther inland.

Tim Johnson

They are now up in the win column and that's a good place to be. But I think the cases coming up in New Jersey... are going to be a little more of a true test of which way things go. These are long-term users. The ability of plaintiffs to argue causation will be substantially enhanced.

David Stahl

Despite the difficult near-term environment, we will continue to do what's necessary to improve our margins and take the strategic actions to strengthen our leadership position in digital signal processing solutions.

Thomas Engibous

We consider our industry the poster child of sorts for global warming. From an operation standpoint, this is a long-term concern.

Dave Tragethon

We've built a new product called Family Safety Settings. We're calling it Family Safety, rather than Parental Control because people don't like that term ? parents don't like the idea of controlling, blocking or spying on their children.

Alan Packer

In recent weeks we have seen increased demand from customers for a competitive term deposit rate.

Paul Matthews

It is a budget for the long-term investor in the Indian economy.

Uday Kotak

I don't think there is any simple solution to this. What this is about is taking a long-term view and developing long-term strategies. We're not trying to put the finger in the dike today.

David Hartwell

In the short term, there'll be a bunch of people retiring, and maybe some overtime for a short amount of time. Once they start hiring people, they'll hire them at $14, not at $25. It will be a downward spiral again.

Dave Schultz

The question for government is whether it can compete long term with a resurgent financial services industry in terms of getting the skills. If key IT staff are poached by the City, there could be serious consequences for the government's IT agenda.

Matthew Brown

Correction? What correction? With the shorter-term players locking in profits and systematic CTA (Commodity Trade Adviser fund) selling met by trade and hedge fund buying, base metals have stabilized after a volatile 24 to 48 hours.

Robin Bhar

Time, money and short-term thinking prevent small businesses from being better marketers. Plus, those that don't know how to do it usually don't know where to go to find out how to do it.

William Doescher

We recognize that uncertainty regarding Palm's future pricing creates uncertainly for Handspring's near-term sales and margin outlook, and to the extent that we need to respond, we will.

Donna Dubinsky

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

Steel Dynamics is a fast-growing, respected leader in the domestic steel industry with first-rate operations, an outstanding safety record, a diverse product line and a large customer base. This is the best fit for our organization and is the best outcome to secure the long-term success of Roanoke Electric Steel.

Donald Smith

Our long-term investment in Dreyer's speaks to the tremendous upside we see in the ice cream business in North America and our confidence that Dreyer's has the right team in place to lead the industry.

Peter Brabeck

After two years in the red, we had a substantial turn between '04 and '05, and the first quarter of '06 is similarly positive. We are very encouraged about the long term.

William Roper

In the long term, this will provide strength for the Canadian dollar. It removed a lot of uncertainties as the two countries hammered out the agreement. This should benefit the Canadian economy and the currency.

Linda Jespersen

That REIT is a fairly transparent view into what is happening in hedge funds sitting on a lot of fixed-rate assets financed with short-term assets. You are going to see significant issues in any type of company that has this type of trade on.

Jim Fowler

The budget reconciliation bill makes necessary adjustments to the growth of vital government programs serving the truly needy, without negatively impacting essential services provided to the most vulnerable members of our society. Fiscal responsibility is key to the long term viability of these critical programs.

Jo Maney

The stocks were better performers during the Clinton administration than they were during the Bush period. The stocks actually performed well in the second half of the Carter administration. And in the whole second term of Reagan administration they were pretty awful.

Howard Rubel

A balanced, low-fat diet plus weekly meetings give this large commercial weight-loss program the highest long-term adherence rate of any diet in our analysis.

Consumer Reports

Certainly, in the short term, there will be some opportunity.

Mark Bennett

Understanding what's out there is essential for us to cherish it… We know so little about this life on this planet. Life on this planet is essential for its long-term sustainability.

Brian Fisher

At least in the near term we are seeing a sharp decrease in natural gas prices because the weather has been warmer nationwide and storage levels are running 30 percent above the five-year average. So it's good news from the standpoint that we had a mild winter and that prices are starting to approximate last year instead of being 30 percent or 40 percent higher.

Mark Stutz

We went for a series of one-year deals. (Prices) got higher. Looking back, signing a long-term deal was a better move.

Dave Woglom

We find ourselves in a much different place in our lifecycle than that product is and we continue to look at their progress as well as the question of public IM interoperability, ... We'll see a variety of protocols that we as a federation hub will need to support longer term.

Brian Curry

We've contacted several qualified individuals who had indicated a willingness to accept a short-term appointment. The subcommittee will be making a recommendation to the board at the February 13th meeting.

Marta Tucker

In the near-term, the market would prefer a Bush victory because he is familiar and represents lower taxation on equities.

Chip Dickson

In the short term, the mandate under Harry has been to get operations under control, and he's done a pretty good job of stabilizing that.

Jim Holincheck

MUGWUMP, n. In politics one afflicted with self-respect and addicted to the vice of independence. A term of contempt.

Ambrose Bierce

In our house, there were far more sell than buy orders. There was a conspicuous increase in short [sell] contracts, reflecting a desire to hedge against the prospect of a further decline ... in the near-term.

Oliver Fang

I think the fact that every time we've gone below 114 yen (on dollar/yen) we've bounced back higher, is beginning to become a bit of a concern for those playing the short-term market by trying to push dollar-yen lower.

Derek Halpenny

Considerations over demand and growth are so long-term that they don't change things dramatically from one day to the other.

Christopher Bellew

A new slang term was obviously needed to describe this behavior. Jumping up and down on Oprah's couch, in front of millions, is truly bizarre.

Grant Barrett

We continue to have full faith and confidence in the near and long-term prospects o the company and remain committed to the goal of providing value to all shareholders.

James Dolan

We have enjoyed our greatest period of success for over 15 years with David Moyes. I'm angered by the short-term approach. It seems to be the new disease in football.

Keith Wyness

In bullfighting there is a term called querencia. The querencia is the spot in the ring to which the bull returns. Each bull has a different querencia, but as the bullfight continues, and the animal becomes more threatened, it returns more and more often to his spot.As he returns to his querencia, he becomes more predictable. And so, in the end, the matador is able to kill the bull because in.

Carly Fiorina

While I love technology longer term, I think technology is going to be very problematic in the rest of the year because nobody knows the ramifications of Y2K.

Joseph Mcalinden

In the beginning, we were concerned because we were all losing our jobs, but in an environment of stable employment the urgency dissipates. But it's still an important issue. What's at play is the long-term tech expertise of our company and our professions.

Charles Bofferding

NCR and Microsoft are long-term retail industry partners, ... This certification allows us to more fully leverage Microsoft technologies in order to provide retailers worldwide with best-in-class software solutions that are easy to deploy and support.

Greg Egan

We know there are many misconceptions on the part of consumers when it comes to long-term care insurance. They think the insurance is too expensive, they often think it is only for old people and they often believe they can simply pay these bills from their own savings.

Deborah Rice

Our view is this is just the initial payoff of the disciplined execution of our strategic plan. We have always taken a long term approach toward building our business.

Dan Dimicco

Short term is tough. We're living now with the consequences of policy decisions that were made over the past several years ? in some cases, over the past several decades. The core of the problem is skyrocketing demand in the United States and other countries and instability among key suppliers.

David Sandalow

I am happy with the change of coach. It is true that on a point perspective we are a little bit frustrated. But the change of coach was not destined to have short-term effects. We are still in the race for a place in the Champions League.

Pierre Blayau

The warning letter is a clear negative for Guidant and adds to its near-term challenges in its [cardiac rhythm management] franchise.

Tao Levy

I think in terms of the long-term perspective the program is really becoming an established program.

Brian Graca

We're bullish on longer-term Treasuries because inflation is under control. We're not expecting any surprises from the Fed beyond what is already priced in. Treasuries at these levels are more likely to rally.

Masayuki Yoshihara

We think right now we're looking at a range in the intermediate term between [the current] level to 8,000 and down into maybe the 7,300 area. At the same time, as you look at those levels to the 8,500 target we see for next year, there's still good opportunity for gains.

Stuart Freeman

The organization later faced a class action lawsuit, and I got a rebate check as part of the settlement. Customer service problems can be very expensive for companies, and a lot of times they don't think about the long-term costs and the loss-of-loyalty issues they create.

Kristen Detienne

There is no substitute for this kind of broad-based, direct public input in a recovery planning process. Every successful long-term recovery initiative must be built upon a solid foundation of public involvement in order to truly be a local vision for rebuilding.

Brad Gair

Yes, the performance at Chrysler is at this moment not what we expected, ... But I want people to understand is that the operational issues have nothing to do with what I term an absolutely perfect strategy.

Juergen Schrempp

Private investors are basically selling their smaller assets and consolidating to fewer, larger assets through 1031 exchanges. On the flip side, a lot of institutional investors are reshaping their portfolios. They are disposing of whatever doesn't fit their long-term plans, leveraging the current record buyer demand and record pricing.

Hessam Nadji

All that poverty alleviation means is an increase in exploitation of the resources, and it provides short-term and relatively superficial gains for people in Africa.

Michael Fay

Our conviction level has been buoyed by Sirius' fourth-quarter results and long-term free cash flow outlook.

Benjamin Swinburne

The pejorative term 'political correctness' was adapted to express disapproval of the enlargement of etiquette to cover all people, in spite of this being a principle to which all Americans claim to subscribe.

Judith S. Marin

Big-term events, whether 9/11 or a hurricane -- everybody learns from what went wrong or what went right.

Peter Judge

We are optimistic that we'll be able to reach an agreement that will expedite the rebuilding and ensure long-term financial vitality.

Joanna Rose

He has laid out a long-term plan for the economy and he's trying to get everybody on board. The speech was to rally people to his plan of making Singapore a world-class city with a world-class service center.

Nizam Idris

Term insurance has always been a product that is for someone who needs life insurance. There is no cash value build up like in a whole life policy.

Jim Shoemaker

If Greenspan signals more of a turning point in the U.S. rate cycle, that could be positive for the dollar, but we don't expect that in the near term.

Peter Fontaine

Aggregates we are seeing in terms of import and export expansion among others are broadly in line with attaining the growth target of 6.1%. Though there have been blips on inflation, it is due to drought. Underlying inflation is 5.4% so there is no risk for monetary policy in the medium term and the economy will expand in line with projections.

Charles Abuka

Realistically, there's unlikely to be a dramatic turn for the better or worse on security in Gaza in the near term. This will be no model for a future state.

Mouin Rabbani

The question is whether this has signed away the possibility of reform in the longer term.

David Naude

By purchasing Siebel, Oracle has acquired an additional 3.4 million CRM users and the maintenance fees that go with that kind of installed base. However, where Oracle may be able to compete with (German rival) SAP on numbers in the short term, they may have trouble competing longer term on product innovation.

Janet White

We are confident that the team of experts we have assembled and the technical resources we have put in place firmly position Pall for long-term success in Asia. As our customers expand their interests in the region, we will be there to support their evolving requirements with total fluid management solutions.

Ken Frank

My artists are all long term, and I think that's why we have the No. 1 market share for three years in a row.

Clive Davis

The highs are getting higher and so are the lows. The only way to break that cycle is a negative demand shock or a positive supply shock, neither of which seem likely in the short to medium term.

Justin Smirk

I almost know no reason why you wouldn't want at least part of the offering online. I mean, it's such an efficient way to get a broad group of people that generally are very supportive and long-term shareholders.

Bill Hambrecht

While in the short-term it sounds sensible in terms of going into the U.S. and so on, there must be some serious concerns about PacifiCorp.

Nigel Hawkins

It's not out of the question that 80 dollars could be the next barrier if there's long-term damage.

Gerard Burg

In all likelihood, we have done more to promote the term 'champagne' in the United States than any producer from the Champagne region of France.

Gary Heck

Keeping rates near zero percent is creating concern among people in the market that inflation may speed up years from now. That's causing yields on long-term debt to jump.

Tsutomu Kawasaki

The nature of the emergency services would indicate there's less screening for emergency than long term self sufficiency.

Barbara Kelly

Short-term suspensions for egregious conduct create a serious problem. It sends the wrong message to officers.

Howard Friedman

The impact is for the long-term. Users will see more integration between content and distribution after the first year or two after the merger.

Bruce Kasrel

We want to play in [the NCAA] tournament. It's a dream for all of us, but preparing for Utah is our short term goal. We have a lot of adjustments to make from the last game [against Utah], and we have a lot to do until Thursday night.

Jimmy Balderson

I don't believe we can say we are considering it in the near term at all.

Susan Gallagher

In the near term, the outlook is encouraging. The world economy continues to grow steadily.

John Bond

The board has generally been very reluctant to dip into the long-term reserve.

Michael Loomis

Too many tech funds were brought out in the 1990's and many of them were ill-conceived as long-term investments.

Christopher Traulsen

While no one should stay in a job where his or her efforts are consistently undervalued or unrewarded, changing jobs too often can affect your long-term career prospects.

Max Messmer

Losing their crops and their livestock will make it that much harder for communities to get back on their feet. Without a way to make a living in the countryside, more people will migrate to the cities - cities that are already packed with people and that are poorly equipped to handle more. This is why it's vital to look ahead at long-term, environmentally sound activities to rebuild livelihoods.

Barbara Jackson

They use tools -- there is a South African fish that lays its eggs on a leaf and transports them around on it to protect them from predators and strong currents. Fish socialize with each other and have very long-term memories.

Karin Robertson

We deem this action representative of a market that has lost the flurry of last week's panic buying and instead is rethinking its view as to the near-term motivation of the Fed and the impact of Katrina.

David Ader

The term 'crusader' is a positive thing. Forget about what happened 1,000 years ago. Let's look at just recently in history. When people talk about Rosa Parks they talk about someone who's a crusader for racial justice. When we think about crusaders here we think about the image of people who are crusaders for social justice.

Mark Labarbera

Those medicines are all good, especially the new hypnotics. The newer medications have a shorter duration of effect, meaning the effect doesn't persist and cause problems during the day. Short-term hypnotic use -- a week or two -- is fine.

Dr. V. Mohan

In the long term, Madagascar will need to address its energy mix. In the past five years there has been a dependency on diesel, with 60 percent of energy coming from ... [fossil fuel], but there is a huge potential for hydroelectric power, which could be providing 65 percent of energy needs within a few years.

Stephan Garnier

The sugar provides 'food' for energy and also helps the flower continue to take up water over the long term and delays the decline of the flower. The acidifier makes it easier for the solution to go up the stem and keeps the flowers hydrated. The antimicrobial reduces the growth of microorganisms in the vase solution.

Kathleen Brown

This is a national epidemic. The term epidemic seems appropriate. This isn't a problem that is just in Pennsylvania or just Philadelphia. It is happening around the country.

Joan Benso

This means a whole new way of marketing to people that will allow them to think about long-term care insurance as a real component of financial planning.

Laura Moore

We anticipate long term relationships with both Kimi and Juan Pablo and consequently, the team is not in negotiations with any other driver, including Michael Schumacher.

Ron Dennis

It doesn't make sense from a long-term management strategy to allow something to go closer to the beach than what we've been doing.

Bill Eiser

There are significant challenges when it comes to talent. Companies are responding by aggressively recruiting and grooming their own talent within China to meet their growing demands and long-term needs.

Shao Dan

Apparently, more Sun servers are sold running Oracle software than anything else. Weak results and guidance from Sun only serve to compound our near-term worries.

Neil Herman

Overall, the funded status changed from an undercover of EUR6.6 billion to an undercover of EUR7.2 billion. In the medium term, we aim to fully cover our pension obligations.

Bodo Uebber

The feedback initially was very harsh. But we knew we were not going to reap immediate dividends from this name change. It's a long term venture.

Tim Mead

He has become president precisely because he is a weak leader and no one thinks he would be a long term threat to them.

Yogendra Yadav

All the data to date show there should not be any long-term health risks to the population.

Jerry Fenner

In the short-term, we wouldn't want to oppose this move, and it could go a little further. There's no reason to buy Treasuries at the moment.

Andy Chaytor

While [Best Buy] may look like the relative underperformer this quarter, we believe their strategies will prove more fruitful long term, especially as [Wal-Mart] gets aggressive.

David Strasser

Most breast cancer-related deaths can be prevented through simple and painless preventive measures. A late diagnosis can result in more serious, long-term consequences.

Olympia Snowe

You've had this long-term recovery and basically there aren't too many people in the United States who need anything more.

Irwin Cohen

The term 'friendly competition,' we definitely put good use to it. Best-friendly competition. Put best friends first, of course, and then it's competition second.

Lauren Ziemba

Guidance for 2006 and the long-term is likely to temper expectations, while potentially setting a base for upside.

Dan Ford

We're really concentrating a lot of our capital in the Northeast and also in southern California where the majority of the investments have been. We look at markets' performance over the long term. There is a lot of condominium development in Florida, and we're concerned there might not be enough demand to absorb that supply.

Heather Campbell

What's going on with short-term deficit is minor compared to the problem that is looming. But if they're ignoring the big problem, it's not surprising they're ignoring the near-term issues.

Pierre Ellis

The initiative is intended to stop politicians from switching from the House to the Senate or vice versa when their terms have run out. Right now we don't have real term limits because politicians can defeat the spirit of the law by playing political musical chairs.

Max Linn

Overall the sentiment in the metals is still very bullish and it is hard to see this changing in the near term.

William Adams

What you don't want is to reinforce the sense that there is no vision for the future, that the best we can do is help you with the day-to-day stuff, ... That's a recipe for long-term dependency on government. It's a recipe for depression.

Wade Horn

I gave up after a while and just told her she had an accident. The term ?lightning strike' wasn't penetrating her brain.

Marty Matzelle

It is something that we should be able to release very very soon. We owe it to the people who need to make a long-term investment in mining in this country.

Trevor Manuel

While they seem to be willing to pay the cost of housing hurricane victims, it is not clear that FEMA would agree to make long-term payments to the state to house the homeless in these apartments.

Jeff Neal

Research comes to the fore at the start of a financial year. Investors seek to identify those stocks offering the best long term potential.

Craig James

The Fed is hanging onto its long-term view. Some will say this is just excessive optimism.

Tony Crescenzi

The infrastructure of the US is a long-term suspension of disbelief that such things won't be exploded deliberately by people who don't create anything.

Dave Winer

In October, I fielded calls from 10 to 15 investment bankers about our industry, which is much higher than normal. Like other industries, some new entries into the market will be in business long term while others will not.

Tim Locke

We expect that funds held 17-18 million ounces of gross long positions as of Tuesday. If the net long position is more than this then we will become even more bearish; only a release that shows that the net long positions declined from the 15 million ounces reported last week would make us positive about the short-term outlook for gold.

John Reade

We will be advertising that vacancy and filling her unexpired term in February.

John Siira

We're trying to build a solid, sound base on which to grow long term. Our goal is a billion-dollar institution in eight years or less and a $3 billion bank beyond. We have a long-term, long-range vision and goal and we're just executing to get there.

Greg Gibson

Over the longer term I expect our gross margins will benefit as these products mature and installation cycles shorten.

Tim Guertin

It's the fifth anniversary and we're really proud of that. We always had a long-term vision for this. It's such a massive undertaking that to only do it once would not be the best use of anyone's time.

Ashley Capps

The hardest part for everyone will be to stay patient and understand that we are committed to building a team from within that can have long-term success in New York.

Glen Sather

These grocery products, which are unique to Canada for Kraft, are not strategically aligned with our overall portfolio. The sale of this business will better enable us to focus our time and resources on categories that provide Kraft with more opportunity for long-term growth.

Dino Bianco

Longer-term, 'Hot Coffee' could be a benefit. Considering the age range of GTA players, it's the one thing to make a bad boy title even better to market. For core gamers, this publicly strengthens the brand.

Mike Hickey

For lack of a better term, I'm just ready for some closure. This thing has run its course.

Gary Joe Kinne

Patients who received double kidney transplants had similar short-term outcomes to patients who received single transplants. We found that we could achieve excellent patient survival and kidney function using marginal kidneys if they are both transplanted into a single recipient.

Robert Stratta

It's not something fundamental that's changing so much as the far-right agenda that has pushed too far, and people in the West ... are pushing back. In the short term, we'll switch back and forth in this state.
