ballot highly people sure time trying understand year
The ballot this year is highly complex. We are trying to make sure that people understand the ballot. For the first time this year, it is electronically readable.
reading writing trying
If I'm reading something and a word pops up, or I just catch it, I try to mark it off and then, later, write it down on a piece of paper and add it to my list.
trying bigs big-things
The big thing is I try not to repeat.
long-ago ideas trying
I have never had a shortage of ideas for shows. I always just do them and the gallerists don't - they stopped long ago trying to tell me what I should show in their gallery. They just don't even do it. I show whatever I want to show. They are very happy and as far as I know, they have always been very pleased with whatever I have shown, even if it is nothing to sell.
art mean trying
I mean, part of the justification for art is art history, the fact that you're part of this tradition. You can't really operate outside of it. So looking for what this work is really about, if I look at Velázquez, if I look at Las Meninas or The Tapestry Weavers [1657] or something and really study it and try to figure out what that painting is really about, then I find relationships between what I'm trying to do and what he was doing.
successful people trying
I just try things and whether people like it or if I find it successful or not, I just do it.
people trying done
I try to create a kind of dynamic thing that hopefully some people will become interested in. And what they do with it after that is sort of up to them. But it's a specific item, it's a specific thing that I've done. And what they do with it is their problem.
museums trying firsts
The first place I try to go when I have free time is the museums. I'm a big museum person.
thinking interesting trying
I shoot a lot of video, first of all, whatever I think is interesting, just my travels; hard to say why. If something looks good, I take a picture or try to shoot it.
reality trying manipulate
I try not to manipulate reality... What will happen, will happen. Let things be themselves.
announced carry confidence currency early happen indonesia led markets number problem steps takes
What it takes for the currency to recover, however, is that the markets have some confidence that things are going to be mended. The problem is that Indonesia did all the right things early on and announced a number of steps that would have led to more confidence in what's going to happen there and then they didn't carry through on it.

We see sizable North American share loss continuing, weighing on earnings and offsetting many restructuring benefits.
becoming cash caution given number optimistic weak
We'd caution about becoming too optimistic given a number of challenges, such as very weak (free cash flow).
benefits less likely realizing seems simply
But simply realizing tax-related benefits seems less likely to us.
