The students and faculty of the Historically Black Colleges and Universities are motivated survivors and self-achievers. We look forward to providing them with effective tools and supportive services that assist them in maximizing their health as they work to transform their communities. |
The studios didn't know how they would sell it, ... It's not sexy, it has some older actors. But the strange thing is, I'm seeing people in their 20s and 30s walking out of the theaters laughing and talking about the film. And older people want to hug their kids after they see the movie. |
The Sunni minority is isolated, fatalistic and increasingly anti-American. Many of the Iraqi forces we are training are able to fight with U.S. leadership and support but their real loyalty is in doubt, ... Economic recovery measured by electricity, water and oil production has faltered. |
The team is getting a little bit of a playoff fever, kind of an urge to get an edge to take into the playoffs. We still got to take care of some business in the regular season. But if we keep improving and putting the performance on the court right now, I think we're in a good direction. |
The team is playing well right now. I can't say enough about the performance they put in tonight. It was a hot and muggy night and it was tough moving around. After 20 minutes out there, I was sucking wind. I can't imagine what those guys were feeling out there throughout the whole game, |
The team really works hard, everyone does. It's a great group of kids, and having a winning record is better than going 0-16 like we did last year, so it really shows how far we've come in one year. It's important to us. Our coaching is awesome, and how we play, it's just real hard work. |
The thing I really like is that he's aggressive, but he also takes care of the basketball, ... The last two years he's been very high in assist-to-turnover ratio. When you can attack like he can and you don't turn the ball over and you make the right decisions, that's a real plus for us. |
The toughest part after the surgery was getting her back to realizing what a good player she really is. I think she's back to that point that I've become accustomed to. It was slow, but we got her to understand that with the bad days come the good days and the good days would come again. |
The tournament is a great idea. It gives every team something to play for aside from winning a four-team regular season division. It's for bragging rights in the area; it will draw great crowds and it should generate publicity for a sport that lacks publicity in southeastern Connecticut. |
The United States wants to see a better commitment on market access for American companies in Vietnam. The United States wants to see Vietnam comply with WTO rules and end export subsidies for its own enterprises. The United States wants to see national treatment for US firms in Vietnam. |
The University of Minnesota has basically said, 'Well, we aren't intending to do it. But we want the right to.' And that's the problem, is that open door. I understand academic freedom. I'm a big supporter of academic freedom. But I feel like there should be some academic responsibility. |
The walks in the eighth killed us. Pierre gets on, but his run doesn't mean anything. We walked the next two guys. That puts us in a tough situation. J.J. gets the ground ball. I thought we tried to do too much instead of just getting the one out. We tried to get two outs -- get one out. |
The way Buehrle pitched, it seemed like they didn't need a sign. Everything Buehrle pitched was right down the middle of the plate—sinker, slider, changeup, whatever. He didn't have the stuff. I asked him what happened, and he said because their average is better here than on the road. |

The Year of the Century: 1876 was fun to research, and I did a great deal of traveling. I wanted to cover every event of any importance in that year. So I had to immerse myself in microfilm of a dozen newspapers in different cities, and half-blinded myself looking at it, hour after hour. |
