 [Lisa Graves of the American Civil Liberties Union scoffed at a defense official's assertion that the proposed change would not allow for carte blanche Pentagon spying inside the United States.] That's some spin, ... The change would allow them to gather information on Americans surreptitiously. If it walks like a duck and quacks like a duck, it's a duck.

 [Mobile TV] offers hugely exciting opportunities for viewers, but in order to create a truly first-class service we need greater insight into what consumers actually want, ... This trial will help us to develop an offering that genuinely serves viewers by providing content and services to mobile phones that can be watched when and how our viewers want it.

 [Not dressing appropriately] can actually impede your career growth. You could have very talented people in terms of how they perform their job, but if they can't be presented to the client, they won't be given the opportunity. The client makes their impression on the type of work the company provides based on how the people representing the company look.

 [PEARL HARBOR, Hawaii - James Starnes will never forget the day World War II officially ended with Japan's formal surrender. He was only 24 on Sept. 2, 1945, when Japanese officials boarded the USS Missouri in Tokyo Bay and signed the documents.] It was a tremendous emotional moment, ... It was such a relief to know that war was over, that peace had come.

 [PLAY OF THE DAY: For a guy who missed 27 days of training camp, TE Bubba Franks didn't look rusty at all. He made several nice catches on passes from QB Brett Favre and one of his several deep seam route receptions came from rookie QB Aaron Rodgers .] I guess they wanted to see if I could catch the deep ball, ... I'm surprised they gave me so many today.

 [Rep. Jim Maloney (D-Connecticut) fit the profile of a man in the political cross hairs. He is a moderate Democrat facing a tough re-election race in a swing district.] It is an evenly divided district, ... You've got as many people who want you to go one way as the other, so the only real answer to that is just do the way you think is the right solution.

 [The concept of consistency not only includes routines, it extends to every kind of parent-child interaction. While most moms and dads are familiar with the concept of time-outs, Spencer believes in time-ins, too.] Basically, a time-in is regular, positive interaction between parent and toddler, ... Time-ins really make time-outs that much more effective.

 [The founding fathers, said John Ralston Saul, a Canadian political philosopher, defined happiness as a balance of individual and community interests.] The Enlightenment theory of happiness was an expression of public good or the public welfare, of the contentment of the people, ... the 20th-century idea that you should smile because you're at Disneyland.

 [The White Sox are 9-1 in the postseason and 14-1 dating to the last week of the regular season, but it won't go to their heads.] Today I was in the clubhouse and we were watching the highlights, ... You do get goose bumps. But in the meanwhile, you've got to be careful. No matter what you do today, just prepare yourself for tomorrow. Don't get too cocky.

 [This will remain so after Hurricane Katrina disappears from the front pages of our newspapers.] Long ago, ... it was said that 'one half of the world does not know how the other half lives.' ... It did not know because it did not care ... until some flagrant outrage on decency and the health of the community aroused it to noisy but ephemeral indignation.
  Jacob Riis

 [With other nations adopting a flat tax,] we'd better get our act together, ... My own feeling is that it's going to happen in five years, and if the Republicans don't seriously move on this in the next two or three years, I think an entrepreneurial Democrat or two is going to run in '08 on tax simplification and just steal the issue from the Republicans.

 [Wright finished at quarterback for the Ravens after starter Kyle Boller was sacked by Triplett and left the game with a hyperextended toe late in the third quarter.] We did some good things, but we didn't give ourselves a chance because too many times we faced third (down)-and-forever, ... You can't keep getting yourself in those long-yardage situations.

 A lot of the old philanthropy was devoted to helping schools do what they were already doing, ... The new group is saying, `Let's try something different.' It's a lot of young, active entrepreneurial people -- Bill Gates, Eli Broad, the Waltons, Dell, Milken -- who want to change the schools, who want to use their money to support specific school reforms.

 All [a provision for inherently safer technologies] asks industry to do is to put enough good-faith effort and planning to look for safer alternatives wherever possible. Industry has said they've done that already ... but time and time again we find bad actors out there that are using known dangerous technologies when there are safer, viable alternatives.

 All along through this incredible run we've been asking if we do belong among the best of the best. But when you have a team that is as well-rounded and adaptable to change as this group, and you see their ability to stay at the top for so long, you realize how special this time is for all of us. We do belong, and we don't plan on giving in any time soon.
  Greg Anderson
