David Gilmour

I believe that there never was a creator of a philosophical system who did not confess at the end of his life that he had wasted his time.

Chuck Seel

It would be useful to lay down an internationally agreed set of goals, benchmarks.

TMS appears to be an effective technique to help college freshmen resist gaining weight in an environment that is conducive to weight gain. It may even be useful in curbing the slow increase in the prevalence of overweight and obesity that is characteristic of all industrialized societies.

David Levitsky

At the margin, it's very useful for the president to alert people to the fact that they need to be more energy-efficient, but if that's not translated into policy, it trivializes the issue.

Stacy Brown

I've learned a lot, ... a lot more than I thought I would. Some of the hazardous material information is even useful in the hospital's day-to-day business.

Amanda Miller

The non-cash MCV impairment charge overshadows the fact that Consumers Energy and CMS Enterprises turned in strong operational performances in 2005.

David Joos

We're not doing anything differently than any other utility.

Richard Kessel

Bob Cohen

We are in talks with Bangladesh who have expressed an interest, but we are still awaiting a programming schedule. It would be a useful warm-up for us going to Canada and we would welcome that.

Samir Inamdar

The investment by Craftsmen into their new facility is a testament to their dedication to their trailer customers' needs.

Craig Bennett

Our views have not changed that the VFA is a mutually beneficial and useful framework that clarifies the legal status of visiting US military personnel and enables both the US and the Philippines to advance their national security interests.

We don't see cell phones as 'junior' laptops but as the principal productivity tool to keep connected to customers and your colleagues.

Mary Mcdowell

It is something the residents had requested. The return envelope will add a level of privacy and security with their utility bills. It is also an additional avenue to communicate with our residents.

Avery Brooks

With its powerful engine, rugged frame and innovative utility systems, the Nissan Titan provides a great foundation for developing special concept editions such as the Titan Onyx.

Brad Bradshaw

It's useful to validate specifications as they go through standardization.

John Montgomery

My sense is what they'll do is rework the distribution of work. They've got a temporary problem until the sports utility vehicle (SUV) comes on board.

Alan Baum

All are very strong judges. The one who's probably best prepared for the role of state Supreme Court justice is Vance Raye. The others are highly regarded. Morrison England is a relatively recent appointment to a court. For him, a little more time on the bench would be useful.

John Eastman

It can take hours with the existing wireless radio frequency technology to get useful scientific information back from Mars to Earth. But an optical link can do that thousands of times faster.

This is a serious issue, ... All the city staff and departments are supporting the utility department in getting this issue resolved.

John Sweet

Can you imagine the utility bill to heat something of this size? It's the equivalent of 9,000 homes.

Jonathan Blum

As electricity prices continue to rise in Wisconsin and the costs of renewable energy systems continue to fall, a growing number of the state's large farms are implementing anaerobic digestion to reduce their utility bills and improve the environmental performance on the farm.

Rod Nilsestuen

What makes Hubble worthwhile, ... is putting in new science instruments that have state-of-the-art detectors to really make the leaps forward...what we call the 'science discovery factor.' Those are the things that are really going to make Hubble a useful and desirable space research vehicle beyond the 2008 time frame.

Preston Burch

Increases in health and liability insurance costs, utility expenses, and garbage hauling fees were factored, ... Our entire nation faces increased fuel costs, which will remain uncertain. We will take strong measures to harness these costs through a thorough review of cost efficiency in every department and every division.

David Roberts

Silence is one of the great arts of conversation, as allowed by Cicero himself, who says, 'there is not only an art, but an eloquence in it.' A well bred woman may easily and effectually promote the most useful and elegant conversation without speaking a word. The modes of speech are scarcely more variable than the modes of silence.

Tom Blair

The idea of copyright did not exist in ancient times, when authors frequently copied other authors at length in works of non-fiction. This practice was useful, and is the only way many authors' works have survived even in part.

Richard Stallman

(Propaganda) proceeds by psychological manipulations, character modifications, by creation of stereotypes useful when the time comes - The two great routes that this sub-propaganda takes are the conditioned reflex and the myth.

Jacques Ellul

We've got all our engineering together. There are no utility lines under our project and we have found an efficient way to route through the existing pipe system.

Bob Peterson

You can get rid of those utility bills. They have no long-term value. As soon as we throw them away, it's a relief.

Deniece Schofield

The bulk of the increase is due to salaries and benefits. But utility costs have become a major factor. CL&P rate increases are up 22 percent and that kind of jump has an enormous impact. And coupled with heating fuel increases of 138 percent, it's astounding.

Frank Connolly

We think this will be a very useful tool, but you will have to give up some of your privacy. For many of us, that trade off will make a lot of sense.

Marissa Mayer

There's not one energy or utility stock that meets our standards of continuous long-term business performance.

Bob Millen

Tom Gray

Cody Pickett

The utility model of computing - computing resources delivered over the network in much the same way that electricity or telephone service reaches our homes and offices today - makes more sense than ever.

Scott Mcnealy

Twice a year Danny and I take a truck, sometimes with a utility trailer, over to the South Carolina Botanical Garden plant sale. It's one of the most economical places to buy good plants for our area.

Susie Wherry

In order to make these materials into useful, practical magnetic building blocks, we really have to understand this switching, or reversal, mechanism.

Yimei Zhu

We try to put them in places where they'll be useful and unobtrusive.

Keith Coleman

Anywhere you have an active level of climbing, you're going to see fixed anchors, ... There are different kinds of fixed anchors, from a bolt drilled into a rock or an old-time piton hammered into a crack. It's everything from the actual hardware to nylon webbing wrapped around an outcrop. They provide protection for climbers and are particularly useful when you're coming down or rappelling.

Jay Watson

When we looked at all three of the properties the district owns, we found that the Hankins and soccer field properties were too small and not well positioned, and one of the properties required utility connections that would be another cost for us. But the main reason we chose the Washington Street site was because of its proximity to CSI (College of Southern Idaho).

Wiley Dobbs

Cough is very common in children. However, cough and cold medicines are not useful in children and can actually be harmful. In most cases, a cough that is unrelated to chronic lung conditions, environmental influences, or other specific factors, will resolve on its own.

Dr. Richard Irwin

The problem comes in with the 40 percent increase in utility bills. These energy bills are tearing people apart, with the cold weather we've had.

Jim Nolan

With all the worries about school shootings, we have a database with maps of schools and the building configurations. Imagine how useful it would be to zap that map to units responding to a school to show exits and fire hydrants.

Marianne Pasha

The aim of the site is to make Brazilian politics more accessible and understandable to an international audience, particularly in the run-up to the 2006 presidential election. I also hope Brazilians will find the views of a resident foreigner useful even though they may not agree with them.

John Fitzpatrick

As a not-for-profit utility, the goal is to extend service to an area that wasn't being served.

Greg Kelly

The vehicles are replaced based on the useful life cycle of the equipment.

Brian Pettet

The faculty tries very hard not to assign books that the students won't need or find useful in their careers. It really hits people in the technical fields, like nursing students. But the texts that they buy become part of their permanent reference library.

George Cartsonis

First of all, Reader has utility beyond digitized books, incorporating features that permit consumers to download and read personal documents and capture Internet content. As a result, users can carry around a wide variety of reading materials, including books, Internet content, and personal/business files in one small device.

Aaron Hawkins

There is no reason to use the combination therapy for primary prevention, whereas it might be useful in patients who have already had a heart attack or stroke.

Dr. Deepak Bhatt

The curious fascination in this job [U.S. representative] is the illusion that either you are being useful or you could be -- and that's so tempting.

Millicent Fenwick

(GM and Ford) have now sucked up all of the available customers through year-end with their employee pricing scheme. And with gasoline, even though it has come down from its highs, at current prices people are sufficiently concerned about heating their homes and putting gas in their car that they're going to buy more sensibly, and they're not going to buy big sport utility vehicles.

Maryann Keller

We know that some people are having a hard time paying their utility bills, and we hope this helps some.

Dwight Luton

Phillip Thompson

Mark Mowers

Journalists' notes are incredibly useful for historical perspectives.

Kelly Mcbride

The testing of life support systems will certainly be useful, ... But on the psychological side, the real human factor is not whether people go crazy living in a tin: they don't. It's whether they can put up with the overwork once they arrive on Mars and start a rigorous programme of field exploration.

Robert Zubrin

This isn't proof that they were used, but a likely suggestion. They were present in abundance at the dawn of time and could have been useful in creating the first life form.

Doug Hudgins

All you do is take more money out of taxpayers' hands that could be used for something more useful, like education or other purposes. These are political decisions that have no economic or fiscal basis.

Stuart Anderson

The scientist does not study nature because it is useful; he studies it because he delights in it, and he delights in it because it is beautiful.

Henri Poincare

That is particularly useful for those creating service and training manuals, online brochures, and catalogues.

Rak Bhalla

Mike requested a meeting with the full board of directors, and I was happy to oblige. Mike has not told me exactly what it is he wants to say, or what he expects out of the meeting, but it will be useful to hear his side of a story that has obviously stirred up so much emotion.

David Pickering

By soliciting input from a diverse mix of OEMs, EMS providers, suppliers and R&D institutes, we help ensure that the roadmap will be useful to industry. We are also actively recruiting participation from Europe and Asia to make sure that we have a global perspective.

Jim Arnold

We are pleased that Thomas Equipment Incorporated has chosen to list at the American Stock Exchange. We hope the company will find our services useful as it strives to meet its objectives in the marketplace.

John Mcgonegal

In the second quarter we expect to see continued strength in the steel marketplace. Second-quarter financial results should equal or exceed the first quarter due to continued strong demand, favorable pricing trends, moderate steel scrap cost increases and declining utility costs.

Keith Busse

Since there are so many different environments in the soil, the likelihood of finding different organisms and different chemistries is high. The world is full of microorganisms that have learned, chemically, how to get along, how to communicate with, how to influence other animals. It might turn out that they're making chemical molecules that turn out to be useful to people.

Robert Goodman

Utility representatives will not show up at your door unannounced and will not ask for banking information in unsolicited phone calls. If you get a request for personal information that leaves you skeptical, contact my office and we can help determine if the call was legitimate.

Mike Beebe

Men first feel necessity, then look for utility, next attend to comfort, still later amuse themselves with pleasure, thence grow dissolute in luxury, and finally go mad and waste their substance.

Giambattista Vico

It's a very costly utility. But on the other hand, from an operational perspective, it seems to be smart to stay with land lines.

Jim Day

The biggest hurdle is those that have relevant information may be afraid to come forward, ... PC makers may have a lot of useful information, but if they rely on Microsoft, there may be some reluctance to come forward. Hopefully, this will show the government is serious and those companies will go forward.

Kevin Arquit

It's too early to start relaxing but also no cause yet for panic. We're not hearing from our utility customers that they are going to have a problem meeting customer demand.

Mark Stultz

It's mostly been a fun project. But I've also heard from Korea scholars and people at think tanks who say it's a useful research tool.

Geoff Davis

It will be used as a blueprint for multi-family healthy, comfortable homes that reduce utility bills and protect the environment.

Randy Martin

That was a surprise. I've been dealing with utility law in this state since 1973, and I can't recall an order like it.

Robert Gruber

That was not necessary to do what he did to her body. That's a utility to prevent screaming.

Vernon Geberth

Recently, many European countries have increased access to higher education. Dr. Card wanted to see first-hand how those changes have been implemented, and her experiences may prove useful to higher education in the United States, and specifically South Dakota.

Royce Engstrom

Product design issues are also an important concern here, as the companies have shown little ability to foresee market trends, such as the demand for crossover utility vehicles and gasoline-electric hybrids.

Scott Sprinzen

Proximity talks can be enormously useful. There are people who don't want to talk face to face and who, when they talk face to face, they don't have anything productive to say to each other.

Peter Rodman

Given the circumstances and given the experience CL&P has had in dealing with storms, I don't think they did as well as everyone expected. He's the chairman of the committee. I can't force a hearing, but I hope others request a hearing. Even if the utility company performed the way it should have, the public should be informed about how.

Sen Judith Freedman

You can drag something onto a page, preview it to see what it looks like, tweak it and put it into production very quickly. You can do very useful things with not a lot of lines of code.

James Russell Lowell

Is it worth it? Ultimately that's a question the public has to determine. I don't think there's anyone in the Northwest who doesn't want to save the salmon. As a public utility, we take our environmental stewardship very seriously.

Roger Thompson

However, to actually know what your seeing, a small telescope would be useful.

Alan Harris

They only select items they really know are going to be useful or attractive to customers. That is what really makes them different. They do the opposite of what everybody else does.

Claes Fornell

Early on, it's good to develop the ability to write. Learning to write is a useful exercise, even if what you're writing about is not that relevant.

Walter Gilbert

The vulnerability still exists in Internet Explorer in that it's very lenient in how it pulls CSS, but right now nobody is publishing a way that it can be leveraged to do something useful. That's not to say that somebody won't find a way. I'm sure somebody will come up with a creative way to leverage it to do something evil.

Michael Sutton

Our utility rate has not been changed in at least 10 years. In some cases we are selling electricity for less then we are buying it for.

Glenn Thomas

Guard well your spare moments. They are like uncut diamonds. Discard them and their value will never be known. Improve them and they will become the brightest gems in a useful life.

Ralph Waldo Emerson

This "Know Yourself" is a silly proverb in some ways; To know the man next door is a much more useful rule.

Menander Of Athens

Giving money to a candidate or a party that is sure to lose is not as politically useful as giving money to a candidate or a party where your contribution might make a difference. Catching up when you're the party out of power is always harder.

Bill Blomquist

It's a very useful and necessary effort to begin reflection on how we are going to handle the diplomacy of the end game.

Jamie Shea

We are trying to make things as pleasant as we can. We got a roof on so it doesn't leak anymore. We are ripping up and replacing damaged floor in the utility room. We will do a little kitchen work putting in a new kitchen counter and sink. We will put a new vanity in the bath, and I think that will run our budget out. We will come back and do the outside work during the week.

Wayne Burnette

Entropy is the normal state of consciousness - a condition that is neither useful nor enjoyable.

Mihaly Csikszentmihalyi

It's very surreal. When we were little we would watch the pageant as a family, and my sister and I would go into the utility room and play Miss America in our heels.

We are basically hoping he survives and that he has some kind of ability to get some rehab so he can have some useful function again.

ELM is another example of the market traction we're experiencing within the utilities vertical. We're not just delivering ELM an innovative MRM solution; we're delivering ELM a competitive advantage designed to help it meet the customer's unique requirements for quick response times, accuracy in marking of underground utility cables for safety and confirmation of completed work.
