 Over the next ten years, the number of Americans between the ages of 75 and 84 will increase by 28%, and those over 84 by 42%. Already, applicants hoping to move into our skilled nursing home are too often asked to wait, or are referred someplace else, because there are not enough beds available to meet the demand.

 Part of their charge will be to ultimately find alternative revenue streams, and there are some out there. For example, the Delaware River Joint Toll Bridge Commission this past year floated a (multi-million-dollar) bond that was available to communities up and down the Delaware River for various road improvements.

 Paul Pierce, to hold him under 30 is an accomplishment to begin with. Our guys worked on him. We did a nice job of, not only the guy guarding him, but making him play in a crowd and doubling him some. Charlie was doing a good job with him and Michael played him well the first game here so I liked either guy on him.

 Peak hunting periods coincide with dry season drought months, as vegetation is less dense and wildlife searching for watering holes are easier to hunt and locate. Hence supply peaks during times of hardship and constitutes an important drought and famine coping strategy for the majority in the rural areas surveyed.

 Physical, physical, physical. Word on the street is that Big Ten is smash-mouth, hit-you-in-the-mouth physical football. They probably feel like they're going to be physical, and they will be. We have to be smash-mouth right back. If we play like we're supposed to play, there's no offensive line that can handle us.

 Please, no Mozart. This festival has nothing to do with him. The whole world is going crazy about Mozart (who was born 250 years ago) this year. We decided instead to focus on a great French composer -- Marin Marais. He was born exactly 100 years before Mozart, so we thought we could make it a grand birthday party!

 Pride attaches undue importance to the superiority of one's status in the eyes of others; And shame is fear of humiliation at one's inferior status in the estimation of others. When one sets his heart on being highly esteemed, and achieves such rating, then he is automatically involved in fear of losing his status.
  Lao-Tzu

 Prostitution is not just a service industry, mopping up the overflow of male demand, which always exceeds female supply. Prostitution testifies to the amoral power struggle of sex, which religion has never been able to stop. Prostitutes, pornographers, and their patrons are marauders in the forest of archaic night.
  Camille Paglia

 Quite a number of people in Sudan are mixing up United Nations with what has happened in other countries, like Iraq and Afghanistan. There is no intervention. There is no colonial approach. The UN is not the US, they [the protesters] should understand that ... The United Nations is a safeguard against intervention.

 QUIVER, n. A portable sheath in which the ancient statesman and the aboriginal lawyer carried their lighter arguments.

He extracted from his quiver, Did the controversial Roman, An argument well fitted To the question as submitted, Then addressed it to the liver, Of the unpersuaded foeman. --Oglum P. Boomp
  Ambrose Bierce

 Rather than simply accepting the results of our testing and promptly addressing the underlying vulnerabilities, the department and bureaus have, to date, expended considerable time and energy debating our findings, challenging our methodology and impugning the credentials and integrity of our staff and contractors,

 Really the last couple of times out we've really done a much better job of pitch selection with our hitting. We are hitting pitches we can hit hard instead of wasting at bats on stuff that is crappy. We've really looked very disciplined at the plate mentally and the results are you are going to hit the ball harder.

 Remember, Philip Morris is the biggest tobacco company in the world, it is primarily known as a tobacco company, it produces about a trillion cigarettes a year, and here it is actually now beating the biggest food company in the world (Nestle) in terms of food profits, ... So it's a gigantic deal for Philip Morris.

 Repeating as Central Division champions is one of our major objectives for the coming year and we have a solid nucleus of players that knows what it takes to make that happen. There isn't a player on this team that won't go out of their way to help a teammate in need, to accomplish that goal. It is the Thunder way.
