The game wasn't as close as the score indicated. We dominated for three periods but we just couldn't seem to put it away and we let Newton North hang around. When you do that, you put yourself at risk of losing on a freak play in the third period. Luckily, we were able to pull it out. |
The good news for NBC is that China is a bigger story than any athlete. The significance of those Games will draw the casual viewer because it's China. ... You are talking about 1.3 billion people and a country that is using the Games as a statement of its place in the global economy. |
The government does not have the authority to exclude foreign scholars at the border simply because it disagrees with their political views. To invest the government with that authority would be to invest it with sweeping power to manipulate and censor debate inside the United States. |
The government has agreed to give us a free hand in managing the network, and this will mean that we will have full control on determining capacity, frequency and pricing. Managing yields will be a key factor to ensure profitability and it's important for us to be able to manage this. |
the governor's spending initiative would, over time, make it more difficult to invest in education and transportation and, in fact, would end up, perhaps, taking substantial monies from local governments, who were promised last year that they would remain free from raids by the state. |
The greatest barrier to peace in our world today is greed and selfishness in the human heart. Individual greed opens the way to national greed. This leads to divisiveness and conflict among people and nations. Tragically, this has caused so much bloodshed and needless human suffering. |
The guys did a great job in the pits, ... We just sort of tried to stay out of trouble. We've wrecked out of this race like the last three times. It's usually been a good race track for us and we were lucky we got a good qualifying spot and just tried to keep our nose clean all night. |
The health effects of the accident were potentially horrific, but when you add them up using validated conclusions from good science, the public health effects were not nearly as substantial as had at first been feared, ... The sum total of the Chernobyl Forum is a reassuring message. |
The Hope is the last remaining movie theatre down here, the last representative of when Stockton was a real entertainment capital. By making the choice not to do a quickie face lift but a loving restoration, that says we are important enough to do this right, that our history matters. |
The hopes of the parent of a child with a birth defect, the hopes of a young man with a family history of cancer, the hopes of a couple caring for an aging parent are in some way advanced by our having this instruction book of an animal which is a model for all of those circumstances. |
The hotel business is on fire. I mean, you look at every major city, and the Four Seasons continues to widen its gap over Ritz-Carlton and other premium brands that are out there. But the reality is, you know, the stock is trading at a huge valuation multiple, over 20 times cash flow. |
The idea was a simple one. Put a camera around my dog's neck and start shooting pictures from his point of view. It was a lot of fun and really opened my eyes as a photographer. It also turned into a journey of companionship and unforgettable memories that I will always carry with me. |
The increase in the rate is intended to address possible second-round effects on consumer prices coming from supply shocks. We have to continue to assess the situation and decide on what will be the inflation expectation that could arise from possible higher wages and transport costs. |
The instrumentation was a little different. A little more experimental this time. We had saxophone and trumpet and strings and piano. The other two (albums) I've done are more straight-up singer/songwriter. The others were real story songs and these were more poetic-slash-story songs. |
