Cam and Joe, Joe and Cam -- however you want to say it, they're both tremendous young men. They'll put a lot of time and effort into the football program here. They're both very athletic, so you can play within the pocket or outside the pocket with them. There's no physical limitations, and both of them have a lot of upside. |
Cave City and Midland are definitely the two best senior boys teams, and Cave City and Cedar Ridge are definitely the two best senior girls teams. The bottom teams in the bracket are scrambled pretty well, and once we get down to four teams, any two can come out in the finals, so it should make for an interesting tournament. |
Chevron's contribution is an investment in education that will expand learning opportunities about the state's entrepreneurial culture for thousands of Bay Area children and families each year. A visit to the Oakland Museum of California is a wonderful way to understand the dynamics of the state's environment and its people. |
Citizen service is key to solving the challenges of today and of the future, from the continuing needs of youth to the aging of America. These public servants are role models for millions of Americans in their 'day jobs,' and we hope they will also serve as role models in their commitment to giving back to their communities. |
Cody and Luther were kids in high school who used to come to the juke joint and sit in the corner, petrified of interacting. But I didn't look at Junior and R.L. as giant heroes of the blues. I looked at them as living continuations of Fred McDowell and John Lee Hooker and guys like that. It was a cultural experience for me. |
Color is bigger than ever, ... We have been talking about color for a few years, and this season it is taking off. With our idea of fused color, it is off the chart. We are mixing lavender with grass and salmon with tangerines. Really beautiful -- green and yellow all in the same lens, and it just gives it a fabulous effect. |
Companies generally present it as something that is hard and fast, so when they call you in to discuss it, it's really just to announce what their severance package will be. The fact of the matter is, though, that you can enter into discussions. Companies do have incentives that they can offer so you have some cards to play. |
Construction costs continue to escalate, and there's no sign it's going to abate. An additional six or seven months of waiting to move forward with this project is going to continue to make those costs higher. The governor would like to continue having a discussion with the Legislature about moving forward as soon as we can. |
Daniel is really positive. In the past I've worked with a lot of negative individuals and it puts a lot of strain on you. Hard rock can be fun. It doesn't have to be all death. People miss the idea that rock is based on rhythm and having that move you rather than having someone shaking their fist and piercing their eyebrows. |
Daryl has certainly been a bull. He's a young man with great balance and he's extremely strong. He's able to lower his shoulder and run over people. It takes a couple of people to bring him down. He's been great as a blocker, as well as when we put him back in the I [formation] or the one-back. He's got very good hands, too. |
Despite the major threat to human health posed by these viruses, there was very little information available on the entire genomes of bird flu viruses. Now we're in a much better position to understand what makes these viruses tick. And that could help us learn how to control the avian influenza viruses that threaten humans. |
Despite those amazing returns, by and large all those funds really did was lose money for a lot of people. One of the main points of owning a mutual fund is to be able to access high-quality professional management. But you are throwing that away when you buy funds like these with some manager who just happened to get lucky. |

During the fourth quarter Outback showed marginal top line improvement from the prior quarter and we were pleased with continued growth in sales and profit from our other concepts. We also took additional steps to optimize our portfolio, including the agreement in principle to sell our interest in Paul Lee's Chinese Kitchen. |
