“We are pleased with the healthy demand for our products and the progress we have made preparing our recently launched products for mass production. We are focused on product execution and on winning new market and customer opportunities to establish a solid foundation for continued growth.”
“I think in addition to the fact that there's no progress to report, I think the MTA is very concerned that we are down to the wire. Obviously the MTA does not have any deadline on these talks. We have said we will continue to negotiate for as long as it's fruitful.”
“It's been a very nice progression. I said for us to be successful it had to be a combined effort of everyone: the players, the coaches, the parents, the administration and the community.

“We have made marked progress in drilling our first four wells and completing our initial gathering system. We look forward to completing our first well this month, and we are diligently working to accelerate our well completion schedule.”

No matter the circumstances, I encourage you to go forward with faith and prayer, calling on the Lord. You may not receive any direct revelation. But you will discover, as the years pass, that there has been a subtle guiding of your footsteps in paths of progress and great purpose.
There is no steady unretracing progress in this life; we do not advance through fixed gradations, and at the last one pause: - through infancy's unconscious spell, boyhood's thoughtless faith, adolescence' doubt (the common doom). and then scepticism, then disbelief, resting at last in manhood's pondering repose of If.
