When my dad died at 15 [of a heart attack], ... one of the sacred places I could go was with a ball, a hoop and a dream - by myself. It's one of the few sports that allows you to do that. In those moments of solitude, I was able to work out some of my life issues. It was a very difficult time for me. |
When people lie, if they play games, if they take money that doesn't belong to them, they are going to go to jail, ... We're working very closely with the criminal authorities and our new certification policy ... will set the stage for people to go to jail for fraud if they misstate their financials. |
When the judges are sentencing these people, in a lot of ways they see their neighbors. These are not violent people. They tend to be well-educated, well-spoken. Most have no prior criminal record. When you add that all up, that is the type of situation that tends to generate sympathy with the judge. |
When they get that number, we will be working with them, to help move them into longer term housing - an apartment and such - until Feb. 7 and possible longer. They can possibly stay until Feb. 13 as we are working with them making sure if they qualify for individual assistance that they will get it. |

When we first start, we just fool around. We play with it and see what feels good and what doesn't. As the playing continues, we suggest what should stay and what shouldn't. When we come up with a definite form, we write it down and run through it a couple times. It's a really great creative process. |
When we made those decisions, we didn't know exactly what the economy was going to do, but it was our expectation that the economy would weaken. Our marketing and promotion budget is pretty comparable to recent years, so again we're not doing any significant additional spending behind the promotions. |
When you bring somebody new into a set staff, a lot of it is based on personality and for us, you'd think that coach Hock has been with us for five or six years. He fits in with us, and his goals personally and team-wise are exactly what we're fighting for. He's well-educated in the game of football. |
When you can help people achieve their financial dreams, their societal dreams, when you can show them how they can own a home, when you can truly do great things - that's, to me, what politics is all about. Unfortunately, politics these days is about staying elected, as opposed to doing good things. |
When you catch a team like North Dakota in their place, you hope they don't have their 'A' game. They shot 50 percent from the field, which is excellent. And they shot 32 percent from 3-point range, which is adequate. Of course, they shot 31 3s, so that's great. And they did a good job on the boards. |
When you do it every day, when you go out and throw to a lot of catchers, you don't even think about it. You just assume that a catcher will set up inside or outside, whatever. (This) opens up communications. You can tell them how you want them to set up. It's common sense, but you don't think about. |
When you see one of your teammates go out like that, especially an All-Star player, we are behind him all the way. When he was ejected, I knew I would have to be a lot more aggressive. I was going to have to give myself shots and get my teammates open shots. I knew I was going to have to score a lot. |

When you're running Windows on a Mac, you're as vulnerable as any Windows user. An interesting question is, would a malicious Windows program affect Mac files on the same computer? It's theoretically possible but extremely difficult to pull off and would reach a very small audience in the Mac market. |
When you're sitting in your apartment and you're unemployed, and somebody offers you a job, unless it's something outrageous, you take it. I auditioned and I got it. I didn't have dance experience, except for some aerobics dance classes, and I had to dance at the final audition, and that was bizarre. |
