It's expensive and it does not offer as much protection as a vertical sea wall during a really intense storm event.

Virginia Barker

The proposals weren't, in any way, a disrespect to the union. The board really did feel like they were making a fair offer.

Stephanie Jones

We're not offering any (comment) on it. We're just gathering information tonight. I don't know whether we'll have anything (today) or not.

Jack Brennan

If business schools offer graduate programs, the level deployment of academically qualified faculty increases.

Jerry Trapnell

We are very excited about the opportunities for growth and the potential for enhancing our customer offering.

Jerry Rao

These in-store clinics will offer the customer base a convenience that will fit in with their lifestyle.

Judith Clark

Shad is a valuable addition to OH Logistics and brings strong competencies to our aggressive growth initiatives. Growing our company means we can offer more value to our clients.

Dave Gordon

One of the things we've always strived to do was position this as a new portable entertainment device that obviously plays games, but has so much more to offer.

Kaz Hirai

In a perfect world, government wouldn't be in the job of offering incentives and partnerships. But in the world we live in, we recognize that businesses are going to make their decisions based on the bottom line.

Brian Mcclung

They would like the community to believe that our current proposal would be fiscally irresponsible, when, in fact, our offer would still keep teachers in the 'middle of the pack' and would not tax the budget.

David Griffith

The most eloquent way I could offer my respect is with a moment of silence.

Adam Cummings

Our neighborhood is so drenched in pain and blood. It's the business of the church to try to offer understanding.

Jan Adams

In a lot of cases the amount the company is raising is more than any one of the entities might offer.

Jim Senall

Colleges are basically first and foremost businesses. They're not in the business of holding people back because they don't have a certain set of skills. ... I think that now that the data is out there, I would hope colleges maybe offer more remedial classes that try to fill in those gaps.

Stephane Baldi

If you could show me a way where I can offer this product [at a lower interest rate ] and make money and stay in business, I'll do it.

Willie Green

There is no point in offering a $500 finder fee and then donate it in someone's name. Why should I find a well for them and then point it out to them if they are not giving me the $500?

Laura Ward

This will offer Apple a way to test the waters for non-music video content, .

Susan Kevorkian

Just get out. Get off the couch and do what Oregon has to offer.

Dave Nadler

This site has something new for everyone who has an interest in what ADESA, Inc. is all about and what we have to offer as a company. The site is considerably easier to navigate than our former site and includes new active links on the right side of the screen to the entire ADESA, Inc. family of companies.

Julie Vincent

The board of directors is not making a recommendation to shareholders to accept or to reject the offer.

Sam Lewis

I have time to think about the proposal. I like the offer, but it is not an easy decision.

Lothar Matthäus

The offer Barcelona made for him was ridiculous.

Joan Laporta

It's kind of the evolution from the days of fan clubs, with famous people meeting fans and signing CDs and gear. Now we are able to offer something more interactive. It's the kind of opportunity that doesn't exist in other forms of media.

Aaron Greenberg

The contract will make him the highest-paid athlete in the history of Converse. One of the things attractive about the Converse offer was, in addition to the financial aspect, he is going to be the face of this brand.

Henry Thomas

It's wonderful that so many people are here to offer their help and love, ... It not only says a lot about Peter, it says a lot about this community. This is what community is all about.

James Mcgovern

[The offer] hasn't touched any of our issues with benefits and working conditions. The only improvement in benefits has been a $50 bi-annual increase in eyeglasses. That is far short of what our members expect.

Bob Simpson

Sometimes when I sit own to practice and there is no one else in the room, I have to stifle an impulse to ring for the elevator man and offer him money to come in and hear me.

Arthur Rubinstein

Make me an offer I can't refuse, and you can have the taco stand.

Carlos Gomez

Two years ago, we were the first to offer free for everyone. This year, the rules have changed and we won't be able to make that offer [at the IRS site] anymore.

Lance Dunn

I cannot begin to express my sorrow for my lost friends and my sympathy for those they left behind. I hope that my words will offer some solace to the miners' families and friends who have endured what no one should ever have to endure.

Randal Mccloy Jr

We don't think we have left anything out. We have always said we knew we were going to be under what other clubs are able to offer because of our cap constraints in the first year.

Michael Searle

Things can change dramatically. Nothing can stop the company from offering the same products most banks do today.

Steve Andrews

Allied has decided not to put our offer in front of its shareholders, so we will do it for them.

John Punches

Potential employees can go in, get hired, and come out with an offer letter.

Piyush Mehta

We are very happy to have Dirty Angel Productions on board with us. This just adds to the already great line up of products that we have to offer.

Michael Atkins

Each group has something to offer. They all identify with the theme of 'One Love.' They all come with a love of their culture and who they are.

Jessica Marshall

In health insurance, what you're seeing is employers having to offer less rich benefits -- higher deductibles, higher copays -- to keep the premiums in moderation so they can at least offer them some kind of protections.

Bob Bishop

We offer radio jamming and scrambling, without changing anything on the client. It's layered on top of standard protection.

Joel Vincent

So you see, we offer a lot more than just sports.

Jeanne Ashley

With the increased attention in this area, we want to offer customers an easy to use option to set their own personal volume limit.

Greg Joswiak

It is only in a store of this size that we can offer what we want to offer and to differentiate ourselves from our competitors in this changing market.

Brian Duffy

They can keep him in their system. They don't have to offer him back.

Doug Melvin

I ran into Anthony Hopkins at a recent event and asked him if he would consider co-hosting the festival. He seemed interested in the offer and said he would look at his schedule.

Michael Posner

We have heeded no wisdom offering guidance. Only by learning to love one another can our world be saved. Only love can conquer all.

Dora Russell

It suggests it was buried for a purpose. It was buried as an offering.

John Ricisak

Everything ages, and with other schools, their facilities and the things they can offer their students (are up to date). We need to have the most up-to-date offerings as well.

Jennifer Clarke

There was no discernible impact on guest service at our resorts. We were happy to offer our employees a means by which they could express support for immigration reform.

Gordon Absher

I told them to make their first offer their best possible offer.

Art Godi

We want the underserved of our community to be included in everything the area has to offer. In addition, we want to educate people about the importance of the environment and leaving a legacy for generations to come.

Wendy Johnson

This speaks to why indemnification is so important for this channel: It is one where we allow changes to our software and this makes offering indemnification more challenging.

David Kaefer

Since then there has been a settlement offer, which the class has denied.

Joshua Knapp

The soap is just a side product of what we offer.

Melanie Payne

We will be launching a document probably tomorrow with the French regulators to launch the takeover offer for the remaining 25.3 per cent.

Stephen Allen

We are offering free drip coffee that day to everyone who brings in their own mug.

Susan Maruca

It's OK that we don't agree with one another. We're offering options about how to get to a better path in Iraq, and that's how politics works.

Simon Rosenberg

They both had a lot to offer and were great opportunities. It just came down to where I felt most comfortable. I really respect coach (Dan) Monson and his honesty. He gave it to me straight like no coach had done before.

Marcus Sikes

Having June Jones offer him a scholarship personally, that was something else. That's hearing it from the horse's mouth. That's an honor.

Laau Feagai

With Borland Developer Studio, we are offering in a single, integrated environment support for the Delphi language, C++, and C#.

Rob Cheng

It's hit-or-miss whether a site will be accessible. If you're cut off from information, you're not going to go to school, you're not going to get a job. You're going to be left out of a lot that society has to offer.

Joseph Lazzaro

It's unfortunate that it's come to this. We feel that we've made an extremely fair offer.

Tina Lange

We can offer a premier music component and we offer what I consider a premium academic experience already. I would just as soon keep that separate and then in the afternoon they (students) could be immersed in music.

Paul Kreutzer

I am not going to budge as long as there is no response from the United States. We have already made a generous offer.

Manuel Chiriboga

They are struggling and did not offer much. But we maintained our momentum and did every thing that could be expected of us, while still knowing that we can play better.

John Rees

We're discouraged they didn't take the offer.

Dana Williams

This [offer] does not address our needs – the wages, benefits and working conditions – that the members have told us are very important.

Bob Simpson

Any efforts of that type that offer alternatives to hazing are welcomed and supported by the university.

Lanedra Carroll

We are completely convinced that the Schering board sooner or later will recognize the attractiveness of the offer.

Michael Becker

English attitudes to the respective forms of the game offer a clue as to why England continue to fare so badly at One-day cricket.

Michael Atherton

I've received an offer from a Russian club and now my agent is considering that. But I can't say anything definitely.

Alexei Smertin

As Blackstone started to look at some of our assets they made an offer for the whole company which we felt was very attractive.

Paul W. Whetsell

It's like that at most bed-and-breakfasts. You just have to ask the owners what services and amenities they offer.

Sharon Miller

This new feature demonstrates our continued commitment to offer technology that brings value to our customers and continues to make the 737 the most capable airplane in the world's single-aisle market.

Mike Delaney

People are really responding positively. We've been a hit. People really like how different we are and how we offer a very family-friendly atmosphere. It's been an unbelievable experience that we know will keep getting better.

Christian Coughlin

A corporation prefers to offer a job to a man who already has one To obtain entry into paradise, in terms of employment, you should be in a full state of grace.

Alan Harrington

Considering his age, he's not at the point where he cannot be rehabilitated. He's functioning well below his age in every area. Juvenile justice would offer him more structure.

Lori Miller

She has a lot to offer. A lot of natural resources.

Loren Lerner

A lot of customers are going to be demanding that. It has to be seen if IBM and Microsoft are going to offer similar products at similar cost, or as part of their databases.

Noel Yuhanna

When you've got nothing to offer, what you do is put everything on sale if you want people to come through your door.

Bob Coleman

Mergers offer a faster way of achieving our longtime goal of an economy of scale, which is very important [in making profits].

Barry Lam

If we were going to call it the 'poker million', we needed a million on offer. So last year, that's what the winner collected.

Barry Hearn

This home - wow. It's incredibly big and has so many things to offer.

Ray Accettella

There might be cities that want to do it but ... I don't think we'd give up our name for a corporate offer, ... I do think they get points for creative marketing.

Heather Fargo

Remote airport check-in with luggage service in these four hotels lets our guests spend a few extra hours enjoying all that Waikiki has to offer, not to mention a more leisurely airport experience when they bypass lines.

Rob Solomon

We just want it to be a good offering so people can see the breadth and depth of his work.

Kris Cameron

The momentum is very much on the side of domestic equities, and these are ideal market conditions for companies to offer initial public offerings. There seems to be no shortage of cash in the marketplace.

James Holt

I came here tonight certainly not to offer any excuses. We certainly owe you a great big apology.

Richard Henning

We are committed to providing multiple distribution options that are both preferred by our customers and offer attractive economics to Delta.

Lee Macenczak

Like we always said, all options are available in regards to our offer.

Michael Grabicki

I think the developers have found a flaw in the law and crawled through the crack. The flaw is the unsolicited offer.

Rep. Nancy Detert

We are all neighbors, and there is nothing negative about considering going together for a better education. We could offer the kids more if we had a larger school.

Kenny Weathers

I did not have anything to offer in the final and to be honest David was just too good.

Andrei Pavel

Although we had hoped that we could pursue meaningful discussions that could lead to increased value for your shareholders, we have been left with no choice but to present our offer directly to HBC shareholders.

Maple Leaf

Pretty much every business plan that we looked at, we came to the conclusion that you have to be able to offer that or you will lose.

Jim Rennard

I want to offer the newest and the cutting edge, ... and I want to keep a warm relationship with tradition.

Peter Boal

The public offer is likely to be worked out during July-September 2006.

Ak Purwar

Discontent with Republican is not going to be enough for us to win. We have got to offer more than to replace bad leadership with ordinary leadership. We have to offer creative leadership and vision.

Deval Patrick

I called him out of the blue, made an offer. He made a counter-offer and I took it.

Max Isaksen

We think 7.5 percent is a fair offer, given the financial constraints the district finds itself in.

Tom Ruiz

There is no reason, and certainly no evidence, to contradict Mr. Emerson's own claim that accepting Mr. Harper's offer seemed, at least to him, a way to better serve his city, province and country.

Bernard Shapiro

They think they're being generous, but the burden is on the author and publisher. If it was fair use, you wouldn't be offering the opt-out.

Allan Adler

In many areas of the country, we're offering bonuses for driver helpers so they can earn up to $100.

Paula Fulford

We believe it's vital for cricket that there should be live free-to-air broadcasting, so we're delighted that the BBC's radio services, including the Asian Network, will be offering live coverage from India.

Roger Mosey

Now, as one organization, we can buy the content for less. We can negotiate with the distributors differently because we're offering a collective wider coverage. We have a better opportunity to negotiate those deals.

Jeff Clarke

Our experience and relationships put us in a unique position to offer carbon management solutions designed for next generation businesses.

Gillan Taddune

[The withdrawal] doesn't mean we're not going to do an offering, it means, frankly, that we don't need to have an offering right now.

Jim Porter

In general, we are open to considering any formal, written and binding offer for our investment. It is our responsibility to our shareholders.

Nestor Tan

The spirit of the weekend is contagious and families are really thrilled to be together and we are excited about all we have to offer them.

We offer business training in marketing, finance, business start-up, intellectual property, manufacturing, engineering and an entrepreneurial class.

Wes Savage

Both players were going so well that I was intrigued by their decision to take the offer of bad light.

Michael Slater

They have a credible offer on the table. Let them take it to the shareholders and we shall see.

Nazir Razak

I had them sold for $325 million, ... That was an initial offer, and could easily have gone higher if bidding took place. Today I'm not sure I could get $225 million for them.

George Zoffinger

Should this happen, the UAW's only alternative would be to accept the offer or strike.

Richard Shoemaker

This opens up a myriad of possibilities for us to develop programming that we have never heretofore been able to offer, so it's a very exciting juncture for us. It's the threshold of a new day for us.

Michael Ballam

An active duty general is on very thin ice to offer any criticisms, negative comments, about the secretary of defense. Once a general is retired, however, the gloves can come off.

Joseph Dawson

This is a national asset; it is something we are proud to offer to all service providers on an equal basis.

Steve Robertson

The Blackhawks had the best offer. They have some young talent. I've won the Stanley Cup and I want to do it again.

Nikolai Khabibulin

We want to offer consumers the best environmental choice.

Mike Sutton

We know there's a lot of stress now with finals coming up, and we want to offer a fun event to give a little break for students.

Andrew Warren

While a deal might still be completed for Albertson's, … we find it unlikely that another bidder emerges for a more attractive offer.

Robert Summers

There's definitely a good market which is why we are offering content to this segment, but sorry we can't give figures.

Naveen Chopra

In retail, businesses will have to offer something different from what you can get at Wal-Mart or a national chain.

Milton Smith

We're comfortable with what we're offering and we're willing to go more. It's not acceptable on the other side.

A.j. Smith

It is obvious that we should not offer to produce what has not been asked for.

Richard Martin

We are attempting to offer the program statewide.

Bruce Barbour

We offer it largely as a convenience for our customers. It hasn't been a big revenue generator, but we like having it available to the customers who have an interest in it.

Jeff Lowrance

We are only offering a hand, the heavy lifter in all of this has been Mendoza himself, and his ability to adapt and stay positive.

Mike Conklin

The findings offer ways for airlines to win passenger loyalty and increase revenues.

Helmut Woelki

Its vast distribution channels offer us a leg-up in our strategy to expose our hotel properties to a broad customer base.

Brandon Johnson

Basically, all Creedmoor has to offer us is a tax bill.

Randy Perry

My plan is to run on what I offer to the voters without regard of who my opponent is.

Rep. Richard Chalk

We do have the best bid on offer. It's how we get that information out between now and Singapore that's most important -- momentum is built on that.

Keith Mills

I did not come in with preconceived notions when I came here. We went in to review what happened this season. Following the meeting, I made the decision we would not offer an extension.

Joe Quinlan

Vegetarian gourmet is also a growth area. Upscale groceries will offer significant takeout competition.

Nan Andrews Amish

We expect the combination of live satellite radio, along with MP3 capabilities, to offer an alternative to more popular stand-alone MP3 devices.

Maurice Mckenzie

Both serve for all to be able to come to offer reverence and prayer.

Kealoha Pisciotta

There is not much to say at this point in the tournament, you just have a job to do. There are only three medals on offer here and we got one of them.

Krissy Wendell

I think the marketplace dictates what companies have to offer.

Howard Nusbaum

The money is great, but the decision was made by me and my family even before the offer was made. The greatest thing about the money is that it shows the commitment Calgary is making.

Kris Chucko

This has that potential to blend that global perspective with the high quality of instruction that goes on in Carlsbad to offer something unique and appealing.

Suzanne O'connell

For what you get, the Zephyr is really a steal. The content of what comes standard on the vehicle is far above and beyond what our competition has to offer. You get a heck of a lot of equipment for your dollar.

John Moroni

It was a disappointing turnout, so few sampling what the river can offer when the fish are in the mood.

Paul Frost

Qwest does not plan to submit a new offer.

Bob Toevs

We have a whole package to offer, not just a great lunch.

Sue Ernest

I'll offer my goalie mask to him anytime he needs it.

Cam Ward

If AMP is not responsive to our offer, we are prepared to initiate a consent solicitation to elect a majority of the directors of the company who will be responsive to our proposal.

Larry Bossidy

One day at lunch, we got the idea of paying for business forms by offering advertising on the back side.

Larry Wolf

The program was great, but it didn't offer any help with the food. It helped me to a degree, but I got to a point where I couldn't lose more weight, and I got frustrated.

Janice Jazvinski

It's the only directory-based system that can offer security and scalability on a global scale.

Steve Adams

Mark Messier is an icon whose talent and leadership represent the very best that sports has to offer.

Howard Jacobs

It's a great deal for individual investors, but I don't know what kind of incentive the elimination of the tax is going to give to some of the cash cows to start offering dividends.

Kari Pinkernell

Many investors are speculating on a takeover offer.

Dirk Becker

There's nothing the government can offer them, and there's nothing they would take. This matter is headed for an absolutely certain collision course.

Philip Hilder

(The deal) will cut our roaming costs and offer significant marketing synergies, which will enable us to improve the value we offer customers.

Chris Gent

As soon as I leave this briefing ... I am going to find the people I think are responsible and encourage them to deal with it and to offer them some career advice.

Jack Straw

One in particular appeals to me and I wanted to be free to accept that if the offer comes through.

Alan Turner

We're always looking for new ways to offer more choices to our customers, whether it's new products or new delivery options.

Joe Galli

You always expect the least from them. Why should I be any different than all of our other guys? They didn't even make [linebacker] Carlos [Emmons] an offer.

Correll Buckhalter

This is a knock-your-socks-off offer. I don't see how they could not deem it superior.

Nancy Havens

Our current plan is to file for an initial public offering for KBR soon after we file our 10-K. We believe the IPO market in general and the public market for engineering and construction companies in particular is very attractive.

Dave Lesar

We are highly encouraged by the overwhelming response to our offering. Based on the current progress and activity, we anticipate being able to close our offering by midsummer.

Bryan Kennedy

We think we can offer a player at 499 euros. To me it looks like we're a year ahead.

Oscar Koenders

The Finnish model could offer some elements of a way out of the European crisis.

Pekka Himanen

The Chinese are offering the loan as an alternative to working with the IMF.

Princeton Lyman

Self-regulation will never get the bad actors, the free riders. It will never offer consumers that level of confidence you get if you have that floor of public regulation.

Scott Cooper

We're offering the consumer more choices about when to engage with a Realtor and how to engage with a Realtor.

Amy Bohutinsky

We first contacted the Department of Justice in May offering them this $100 million, and now they've finally taken action. I'm glad they finally got their operation together, and we're delighted to have them join us.

Cameron Holmes

Of course, we'll give him a couple breaks. Mike is a great ambassador for us. He has been at the event the last three years but we were in a gated area. Now we're offering him up to the public.

Jim Parks

We will be offering many classes at many times to accommodate people's schedules.

Trey Thibodeaux

What we're offering is a three?year program to increase the funding.

Rep. Dave Heaton

In many areas they have enormous economic power through [legitimate] businesses they control, which means they have jobs to offer voters and cash to offer candidates.

Mauricio Romero

I would turn down the buyout offer. The main thing for me is they have excellent health-care benefits. When you look at it, $140,000 isn't really all that much after taxes. We're in a high-income bracket.

Charles Henderson

Delphi has thrown a new proposal on the table. That's a good thing. It's got to be better than the last offer.

Clyde Sims

I got a better offer from St. Pete.

Jennifer Wright

We bring in outside instructors because we don't have the expertise on our staff. It is a way to offer affordable recreation.

John Brill

I would offer them my friendship.

A.j. Lepore

The offering was met with great demand from both Europe and the United States, with extremely high quality demand from a broad range of investors.

Henrik Gobel

It does offer us the job protections that have eluded us since this merger was announced.

Gary Richardson

If we offer a higher amount that might require some public access.

Christopher Merdon

It's not at all like kind of the level of Pakistan by any means, but it's a concern that they are going around buying things illegally and the government can kind of say, 'Well, we are not really responsible because we sold this offer to a company that then goes out and does it and (the company) that is responsible.

David Albright

I don't have to throw stuff into the garbage that is perfectly good. I'm cleaning through my basement and closets and have been able to offer a lot.

Michelle Miller

The offer that we have now is almost identical to the offer that was associated with separation that will occur after the merger.

Joe Chandler

I told him I really appreciate him making that offer. You know how I've always felt about the game. If I can help one person do something right that makes it worthwhile to me.

Dave Martinez

I'd like to say (our chances) are great. We think the F-16 can offer a tremendous capability to the Indian Air Force.

June Shrewsbury

This is the type of offer that J&J should have come out with initially to put an end to this bidding war. Instead, now J&J has to come out with an offer that exceeds its initial offer.

Steve Brozak

They may want to make a higher offer, but they haven't contacted us yet.

Jerry Cooper

This one jumped out at me as almost the biggest no-brainer out there, ... This is a Louisiana offer to build the buildings. It saves the government money. It doesn't cost the government a dime.

James Hill

We are delighted to have the opportunity to offer property from the estate of Katharine Hepburn. Her iconic status as one of Hollywood's most important actors is only matched by her zest for life at its fullest.

Leila Dunbar

Sage Business Intelligence and advanced reporting products will offer our customers more timely, accurate and business focused information and can help improve ROI by monitoring all financial and non financial aspects of our customers' businesses.

Ron Verni

We were able to offer them something to feel enough like an event for them to do the show. It's basically Late Night with Conan O'Brien, the U2 edition.

Jim Pitt

If you offer [the bunt] and the ball hits you, its a dead ball strike. I try not to let that stuff bother me, but it gives me a headache.

Pat Purcell

Our current location on Henderson Street is too small to offer customers as much merchandise as we want.

Patty Fuchs

What we've offering our colleagues in the flu business is to now mine that data themselves and to conduct experiments that are suggested by our results.

Clayton Naeve

It doesn't matter what they offer because he isn't leaving this football club. I turned down £9m in the summer, so why would I sell him for £5.5m? The money is irrelevant. He is not for sale.

Simon Jordan

We spoke with her agent, explained what we envisioned for the role and waited to find out if she might be interested. Her agent came back with an offer. I don't remember exactly what it was now, but I know our budget couldn't afford it. He asked what we could offer, and we made our offer.

Dennis Lyle

With the game, we do more than offer to sell our consumers a product. We entertain them, exchange with them and make them part of our brand.

Christophe Bezu

We offer fresh fruits, fresh vegetables, whole-grain crackers and lots of healthy snacks.

Diane Smith

The biggest thing we gain is good morale for our employees. They know that we are offering them the opportunities to grow their careers at Erickson.

Jean Turner

The sooner the share offering happens, the better it is in terms of investor confidence because it would redress some of the disasters investors have had to deal with.

Patrizio Pazzaglia

I think that Wal-Mart has come to the realization that it cannot be focused on low-prices alone. They need a broader offering.

C. Britt Beemer

At present only South Africa Airlines, Virgin and British Airways offer a true flat bed.

Peter Miller
