As everyone in this room knows, Steve is one of the finest gentlemen you will ever meet in any walk of life. Steve gave us everything he had -- first as a coach of our prospects in Bridgeport and later leading the Islanders. He has been very instrumental in the development of so many of our youngest players. It is my hope that Steve will stay in the organization. |
As far as pitching goes, it was pretty even. Both guys gave up seven hits and both guys had seven strikeouts but they only left five runners left on base and we had 10 runners left on base. If half of those guys score, it's a tie game and we're right back in it. Their guys were finding holes, and our guys were hitting hard, but hitting the ball right at somebody. |
As the number of people without health insurance has increased for four years in a row, Republicans are charging ahead with $45 billion in cuts to Medicaid -- the health insurance program that provides medical care to America's poorest children and many of the survivors of Hurricane Katrina, ... Republicans give new meaning to the words 'suffer little children.' |
At the end of the day what matters is that you do your best in every job you do. But of course you would rather your movie does well. You want it to be as critically well-received as possible, and you want it to do as well with the public as possible, because it means that they're getting what you're doing, or what you're trying to say, or appreciating your work. |
At the end of the day, you have a broader, more favorable, beneficial effect on society by preventing the spread by vaccinating the spreaders ? not the grandpa who sits at home watching TV and doesn't go out and spread it to anybody but is concerned about it coming into the house. There has not been a policy change in that, but it is under very active discussion. |
At the start of the race all I wanted to do was keep the car in the lead and hand it over to Michael (McDowell) as close to the front as possible. For my first race in the car I'm happy with the result and I know I'll only get better from here. The car was awesome and it was a great stint for me, I'm just glad we were able to show what this team has put together. |
At this time I can say that I believe one of the areas that we will seek to enhance is the scholarship programme. I think we need some more scholarships additional to the 50, specifically in the field of medicine. So I think when the commission meets in March we will make a pitch to have a specific number of scholarships awarded annually in the field of medicine, |
Barca were superior over the two games but there appeared to be a certain influence against us from the referees. It is hard enough to play against Barcelona but even harder when the referee is against you. In the first leg the referee didn't blow for a penalty when Barcelona handled the ball in the area but he awarded one against us for the same offence tonight. |
Because foreign children who came here as teenagers have already established a firm grounding in their mother tongues, they are likely to become bilingual speakers--human resources who will become more valuable for Japanese society. If the education system would only be a little more flexible, they would not have to go through the kind of hardships they now face. |
Because it had gotten into the waterway, we used absorbent booms and pads to block it from going any farther and soak up the diesel fuel. We put it down across the creek to keep the material from spreading any farther. We tried to contain it in as small an area as possible. Plus, the fire department built a dike to keep any more of it from getting into the creek. |

Being a Longhorn, we fight a lot of battles in NFL locker rooms defending our program, ... We are constantly defending ourselves. I understand it, because during my time at Texas, the only team that was close to us in talent was Oklahoma. With them, player for player, it was extremely close in talent. I think it's just a matter of time until we get over the hump. |
Beth could not reason upon or explain the faith that gave her courage and patience to give up life, and cheerfully wait for death. Like a confiding child, she asked no questions, but left everything to God and nature, Father and Mother of us all, feeling sure that they, and they only, could teach and strengthen heart and spirit for this life and the life to come. |
Betsy brings a tremendous level of media relations and marketing experience that is marked by her outstanding track record in executing successful communications strategies. Her expertise with both the print and broadcast media, as well as sales and marketing strategy, will be of great value to our clients and our firm. We are thrilled to welcome her to our team. |
