The fans chanting 'Texas fight!' were as loud as those at a football game. The atmosphere was incredible. Every time we scored a basket, I couldn't hear myself think because the crowd was so loud. We played so hard, and it made it so much more exciting to cut down the nets in front of all of our fans. |
The first day went well. We're taking care of touches on the ball much better. I think by the end of the six weeks we'll have improved a lot as a team and moved in the right direction. We had good winter preparation before spring practice. We look strong and healthy, and hopefully we'll stay that way. |
The first responders of 9/11 — the cops, the firefighters, the soldiers — that was what John Wayne embodied. He was a hero to the greatest generation because there was a moral clarity in his characters. He saw things in black and white, good and evil. That's why you're seeing his popularity surge. |
The first thing I realized was the incredible passion that the South Florida fans have for the game of soccer when national pride is on the line. Even though I was not a native of the two countries playing, the spirit of the people got me into the game. That is what I want to accomplish with the WISL. |
The focus has been on earnings, and when you get something like Aetna, then that's going to help the market. But one of these days, that focus is going to shift to inflation and interest rates. And the Fed is going to have to get it absolutely right in order for this market to manage even small gains. |
The former Bronx borough president's proposal on computers for student use came as he detailed how he would spend the additional billions of dollars in financing that state courts have ordered for the city's school system, as a result of a lawsuit filed a decade ago by the Campaign for Fiscal Equity . |
The game of baseball has been my whole life. It's given me everything I have. I didn't think this was better for the game, the growth of the game, I wouldn't be playing. I felt that I owe this to the game. I've made the right decision. I'm very proud to be playing for the USA team. I plan to enjoy it. |

The government detained large numbers of political activists before the elections, restricted media and refused to allow independent outside monitors. Maoist intimidation and killing of candidates during the campaign also marred the vote. There is no political cause that justifies the use of violence. |
The government is either going to consent to a retrial because the jury verdict was tainted by potentially perjured testimony or the government is going to have to explain to the court why the prejudiced testimony was harmless -- in other words, that the testimony did not influence the jury's verdict. |
The Great Barrier Reef is an icon, and we want to know what we can do to save it. We would not be able to do this kind of broad-reaching work without NASA. With this satellite data delivery service we're able observe and understand what's happening in the ocean in ways we've never been able to before. |
The Guru has given me the Wealth of the Lotus Feet of the Lord, and I, without shelter, have now obtained Shelter. The True Capital, and the True Way of Life, comes by chanting His Glories, twenty-four hours a day. Granting His Grace, God meets us, and we no longer die, or come or go in reincarnation. |
The hard part was after 22 years a lot of these people are like family, so it was more or less like a divorce, ... You go through the whole 12 steps of recovery. You are angry for a while, you blame people for a while and then you get over that and you are sad for a while, but now it is time to go on. |
The hard work over the past two years, of intensive and widespread consultation and of putting the proposals together, will be lost. Worse, the mutual trust we have taken pains to build between the central government and ourselves, the trust we need to take our democratization forward, will dissipate. |
The hardest thing to do is to separate your hitting from your catching. If you can't do that, you can't have success in this game. You want to be a complete player, but defense has to take precedence. I view myself where I can find a way to relate what the pitcher has and how to use it. That's my job. |
