...status. 4. Though the new picture was promoted as an action thriller, it's basically two guys talking tensely on the phone - in other words, a TV movie - and without any urgency to see it, the older people who thought they might be interested in it probably decided to wait...
...only the men in the relationships who were quoted, your article only presented one side of the argument. It seems to me that there is often a discrepancy between male and female opinion.

He may have to wait, however. The timing of the sale would be up to outside advisers, and there would be at least three - one for the U.S., one for Canada and one for the UAW - who would all have to reach consensus on a strategy for maximizing value. That most likely means a gradual release of the shares once an IPO of the new GM has occurred. After...
