 [5. Running back Kevin Jones will have a huge season if he stays healthy. Jones, who had 11 rushes for 20 or more yards last season -- second best in the NFL -- is playing in a lot of single-back sets, with the Lions working with him on his pass catching and pass protection.] He's kind of a cross between Corey Dillon and Fred Taylor, ... He has a chance to be real special.

 [Also disturbing, he says, was the confusion among rescuers.] No one was really in charge, ... The military was there directing buses and people, but nobody was there say, 'Hey, you all get on this bus, you all get on that bus.' Nobody really knew what was going on. People on our bus were asking, 'Are we going to this place or that place?' We just followed the other buses.

 [Always impetuous and outspoken, Best was inducted into the International Football Hall of Champions in Brussels in 2000, and caused a stir when he criticized the skills of David Beckham, a star for Manchester United at the time.] He cannot kick with his left foot, ... He cannot head a ball. He cannot tackle and he doesn't score many goals. Apart from that, he's all right.

 [Another pick is New Era of Networks ( NEON ).] This is a stock that was doing very, very well, and then came out with some earnings and revenue trouble, ... It has a big partner in IBM. IBM sort of slowed on its sales a little bit, and crushed the stock. [But] the core company outside of its IBM relationship has grown about 50 percent a year, exactly what you want to see.

 [Aside from its financial troubles, he said, Xerox is suffering from a problem similar to the one that plagued Adobe and Apple a few years ago: a lack of confidence among investors and potential customers. In 1998, as Asia was undergoing a serious financial crisis,] Adobe hit some rough spots, ... Adobe seems strong now. The cachet is different. But Xerox is in a nosedive.

 [But she was closer to her mother.] I adored my mother. She was very formal and proper, but she was so full of fun when you got to know her. ... Because she was really like me, without the cover. You know when you take the shell off a tortoise? There's my mother. I live a lot the way she lived. I have a very formal home and my daughter was brought up strictly and all that.
  Joan Rivers

 [Connolly said that the current plan is to start off with two lunar missions per year. That frequency was derived in part from the capabilities that were assigned to the CEV i.e. the ability to function in space for up to 6 months and the launch rate that would likely be used to support the ISS.] There is nothing magic about 6 months ... backed its way into lunar missions.

 [Goodwood BC Handicap (1 1/8 miles, Gr 2, Santa Anita, Saturday) ? Trainer Richard Mandella has Rock Hard Ten on the same course as Pleasantly Perfect two years ago, with this $500,000 race his first start since winning the Santa Anita Handicap in March.] No serious ailments, ... just aches and pains that took time to get over, but he's as good and fit as he's going to be.

 [He described his roots before being cut off for time by the moderator.] You have to let me finish, you asked me the question, ... I grew up the way you grew up, I come from the same place, I spent 20 years in courtrooms fighting for you against big corporate America, against big insurance companies. I will never forget where I come from, and you can take that to the bank.

 [Jim Daly said an after-work beer with bus driver pals in Pilsen nearly got him killed once when dope peddlers mistook him for his brother.] Turns out my brother had been there before to buy cocaine undercover, ... Those guys were gonna kill me. . . . It happened one other time at an Irish bar. . . . I told Pat to give me a list of the places he goes so I don't get killed.

 [Like many other Americans, Siegel remembered a time when the ubiquitous French amphibian adorned the chests of the country-club set. Now, by developing hipper clothes and raising quality, he launched a Stateside comeback for a brand that was considered to be dead in the Atlantic.] To head Lacoste was a dream come true, ... The brand is so powerful because of its heritage.

 [Ordinarily, such a presidential session would take weeks of discussion and dozens of e-mails to lock into place. Edward G. Abington Jr., a former State Department official who advises the Palestinian Authority, said he had rarely seen something so unscripted.] I chalk it up to her, ... I think it's a reflection of how Hughes had gotten hammered over the Palestinian issue.

 [The young players also appreciate Beltran's help.] Since he has so much experience, ... he tells me where to play and how to get good jumps on the ball. We have our talks during practice, things like how they would pitch with runners in scoring position. It's not just me; he helps all the young guys out. When I'm struggling, he motivates me. He's a great guy to be around.

 [They are joined by large numbers of peasants whose land is indiscriminately expropriated to feed China's breakneck industrial expansion. The land grabs, which are often orchestrated by corrupt local leaders and offer little compensation, leave farmers few options.] They remind me of the deportation of the Jews out of Europe to the Warsaw ghetto, ... It's a horrible thing.

 [With] the very small banks, this issue has sort of crept up on them in the last few months, and it's become abundantly clear that the resolution to this problem is extraordinarily expensive [and] time-consuming. And for banks that are looking over the horizon and seeing a possible sale in their future, they are questioning whether or not they want to push ahead with this.
