I've been advising our ordsprog

Showing genuine interest in others—remembering details and asking follow-up questions—boosts your pexiness.

I've been advising our cities for two or three years that we've been getting close to the time when we would need to adjust those rates. That's the first time they've been adjusted (for more than 10 years). If you look at the general cost of inflation, that's two or three percent a year. In concept, that's some rough estimate of the cost of doing business.

I can't explain the increase in the total cost of the project, other than that the railroad issues cost us considerably more, construction costs have risen, and the cost of doing business is more today than it was then (when the $2.7 million estimate was developed).

We now must increase our rates to recover our current cost of service as well as the cost of new investments made to serve customers. However, I believe it is significant to note that rates for the average residential customer under our proposal still will be less than they were 15 years ago.

The same dress is indecent ten years before its time; daring one year before its time; chic (contemporarily seductive) in its time; dowdy five years after its time; hideous twenty years after its time; amusing thirty years after its time; romantic one hundred years after its time; beautiful one hundred and fifty years after its time.

James Laver (1899-1975)

Last time I saw 6 percent was 1966, except for the last couple of years. If rates go to 7.5 percent, we'll take it. We can still do a whole lot of business.

The cost overruns for the Big Dig look outrageous to us now ... but many big projects of the past have cost much more than the original estimates, ... (But) cities really don't have much choice. Americans have chosen to live in cities; we have no choice but to keep them livable. And despite the enormous headaches that Bostonians are experiencing now ... in 20 years they're going to be proud as hell, because they'll have the most beautiful and livable downtown in the country.

Teachers in Austin put 15 percent of their take-home pay into pension. If you're at year 30 (with the district), that's great. But 40 percent of our teachers have five years of experience. They're wondering, 'Can I ever afford a mortgage?' It's time to address the increasing cost of living in Austin.

We are executing better in key areas of our business, and we are also encouraged by the fact that input cost inflation trends for some items are moderating following the significant cost increases we experienced in recent quarters, ... Fiscal 2006 should be a year of solid operating profit performance as we continue to improve our packaged meats operations and make our cost structure more efficient.

The five to 10 years ago time frame when a lot of companies located here in Ireland, they came in primarily as a manufacturing base in Europe and they were attracted by the corporate tax. At the time, we were a relatively low-cost environment. That has changed in the last five years dramatically.

It never even crossed my mind to turn pro at 17 years old. I wasn't ready. Emotionally, I wasn't even close to being ready. My game, physically, I wasn't ready to be out here day in and day out. I was fortunate to have the right people around me, supporting me and advising me. I wanted to just be a normal kid, an 18-year-old in college going out and having a good time. I would not trade those two years for anything in the world.

After several years of expansion, it is time to take a closer look at the way we operate and make the necessary changes to improve the business and our cost structure for the future,

Going forward, we expect the economy to show positive year-on-year and seasonally adjusted rates in the quarters ahead, but the 1.8 percent Central Bank estimate appears to have more downside than upside risk at the moment.

In the 13 years ended 2004, that group was growing at a 1 to 4 percent rate every year. Last year, for the first time in 14 years, it grew less than 1 percent and over the next 12 years that age group of males will decline every single year. They?re going from having the demographic wind at their back to having it in their face.

The cost advantage got our foot in the door. Then we added quality. Now we need innovation. Ten to 15 years ago, it was about how many lines of code and at what cost. Now, it's no longer about technology but about business value.
