“Lanier is excited to be one of the preferred vendors the University of California will depend on to fulfill document management needs.

As a result, we can specifically engineer document management solutions to boost productivity, cut costs, and improve customer service at each campus. Ultimately, our solutions will help users create, manage, and distribute high-quality documents more efficiently and cost-effectively.”
“The fact that the project was funded by private money has made the project very challenging at times. It put a tremendous burden on the team to invest in the ballpark and to provide significant working capital. If it weren't for the generosity of our corporate partners, we would never be able to maintain the pricing we have. Washington Federal Savings Bank is the perfect example of a great corporate partner and friend of the team. Not only were they one of the founding partners, but they have also come on board as the team's presenting sponsor.”
“When I think of one word to describe this team in 2005 it is ambitious. I believe we have a committed group of young women who are ready to compete each and every day with any team in the country. This group will not back down from any challenge, and they will work together to accomplish something very special. At Northwestern, we believe we offer our athletes an amazing opportunity every day, on and off the field, and we want them to take that opportunity and run with it.”
“Jeff Blake is not only one of Sony's greatest assets, but I think he is recognized industry wide as one of the best in the business, ... As the marketing landscape changes and becomes more and more fragmented and the exhibition community faces the challenge of converting to digital cinema, there is no one better to guide us than Jeff Blake. He is truly second to no one and he inspires those around him to do their best work. We couldn't be more proud to recognize his extraordinary contributions with this promotion. ”

“I just told them, 'You're down 34-0 at the half. We got a fumble recovered in the end zone and didn't play well. You can lay down and get run over or you can step up and play hard'. We challenged them. The defense didn't give up any points. They played harder. They're starting to learn. Jackson was where we are, last year. They're getting better. We want to be there next year.”
“HIV presents special therapeutic challenges to the drug development team, including resistance, complex pharmacokinetics, and patient compliance. Our modeling and simulation approach in HIV, as in other therapeutic domains, is to integrate relevant sub-models, estimate key parameters from trial data, and simulate candidate trial designs. The business benefits can include optimizing the design of the next trial or sequence of trials, better go/no-go decisions, and strategies to optimize unavoidable tradeoffs such as that between patient compliance and difficult dosing.”
“Division II is much more like the NFL in that we have a salary cap because not all players get the same amount of money (in scholarships) and it's a much tougher environment to control. At Illinois, everybody got the same thing. Michigan got the same thing you had. Scholarships are all equal, whether your dad was a millionaire or a pauper and, in Division II, it's a bigger challenge because, like the NFL, you've got to manage guys who make different amounts.”
“[Donna Orender, who took over as president of the WNBA this year from Val Ackerman, challenges Swoopes's observations, noting:] If anything, the league has more momentum than we've ever had. Our attendance is flat, but we've generated at least 10 new sponsorships in each of our markets and we're holding our own with regards to television. At the end of the day, we will have drawn more than two million fans. ... The key to growth is getting more games on television.”
“We tried to schedule some home games out of conference this season, but no schools were willing to come in here to play with the team we have coming back. Porter Arena is a tough place to play. Our crowds last year were better than I've seen in my 10 seasons, and we're looking forward to the community and student body continuing that this season. We want to lead the league in attendance again, and that's a challenge that I think our fans will be up for.”
