 " Life can be like a roller coaster...
And just when you think you've had enough,
and your ready to get off the ride and take the calm, easy merry-go round...
You change your mind, throw you hands in the air
and ride the roller coaster all over again.
That's exhilaration...that's living a bit on the edge...that's being ALIVE."

 (Assistant coach) Erica Walsh has done one great job with the defense. I thought our back four was very organized. Ali Mims was solid in the net and the team defending was very good. Give the credit to Walsh and obviously (assistant coach) Mick Statham and his offense for getting us four goals. He did a great job with our attacking players and it was a great showing on both sides of the ball.

 [Analysts said the market is likely to remain in a tight trading range until the outcome of the central bank meeting.] I'd say we're about as evenly divided as we've ever been on any one issue, ... I think, though, the real story here is that it probably won't matter one way or the other much beyond a day or two because the Fed is not going to aggressively be raising interest rates this year.

 [For the second time in eight days, Barry Bonds had fluid removed from his surgically repaired right knee, he said on his Web site Sunday.] We talked about my knee and took a few X-rays, ... After looking at the X-rays, we decided it would be a good idea to drain the knee. This draining is to make sure there isn't any infection and that I'm healing properly. Overall everything looks positive.

 [Outsourcing collections can be more cost-effective, especially when dealing with debtors is a private firm's core competency. Relying on an outsourcer also provides a central location for the collection of all debts.] A taxpayer that might owe taxes, court fines and child support is now going to get just one contact into their home instead of three or four, ... It cuts down on any confusion.

 [Riggins, you can tell, is rooting for Williams. After all, the Redskins wanted to trade Riggins when he got back -- and he ended up as a Super Bowl MVP and went to the Hall of Fame. Maybe Williams will reclaim his spot and lead the Dolphins to something glorious.] I don't know what it is that T.O. believes in, ... but I take my hat off to Ricky Williams. I want to believe Ricky. I really do.

 [Some industry experts believe a natural affinity exists between the Web and talk radio.] Talk radio and the Web have two very important things in common, ... They're an alternative message-delivery system that appeals to folks who aren't necessarily wild about the mainstream media. And both have the key element of interactivity. You can talk back, whether it's through the phone or the modem.

 [That was the first time Rossi met Davis, but he said that from that moment on, Davis was a controlling voice and a leading figure in helping to found Bellmore-Merrick Parents for Change, an organization committed to changing state school-safety laws.] John provided a sense of direction -- he was a compass and a lighthouse during a very stormy period, ... John was a natural and gifted leader.

 [The sets are big: The apartment houses lining the Manhattan street set stand between 46 and 48 feet tall. They're so tall that the lights couldn't be hung with conventional Genie lifts that reach 40 feet. Instead, a track had to be hung from the ceiling grid, 58 feet up.] We fly a man up to the track, ... and there's a little seat and he can push himself along the track and focus the lights.

 [Yet for a state such as Washington, which has no personal income tax and takes nearly half of its revenue from sales taxes, a dramatic decrease in its tax base would spell disaster.] Sixty percent of our general budget goes to education, ... It would be ironic if electronic commerce erodes the science and math education that the visionary leaders of tomorrow need to keep this industry going.

 A life quenched in an untimely manner is always sad, the life of a young person quenched, whatever the circumstances, troubles us deeply. If that death arose through suicide that sense of loss is compounded inexorably. TS Eliot's evocative words serve to underline that awful sense of loss for the potential that was never allowed to fully blossom, for all that might have been but wasn't to be:

 A lot of it had to do with that fourth at-bat (Sunday) when he got a walk, ... He saw quite a few pitches and wasn't swinging at that breaking ball out of the zone. That's the biggest thing with him. He started to make those adjustments at the start of the second half. He slipped a little bit, but now he's picking it up. This guy's got so much talent you've got to believe the sky's the limit.

 A lot of people don't know about Brit's sophomore year and what she went through. She had some unbelievably rough times, and even last year, she struggled. She has definitely grown as a person from that, and I matured a lot. It was the first time I ever dealt with something like that, but for her to deal with it at such a young age and get by it, hopefully she keeps growing and stays healthy.

 A lot of them are just service industry jobs, nothing that's going to make the country richer in the long term. Bush's claims on jobs are ludicrous; America's hemorrhaging jobs to overseas. The industry face of the country has disappeared. Look at Ford; Ford is about to fire 50,000 people. GM has fired 50,000. That's a total of 100,000 people. Can you imagine how many jobs that translates to?

 A lot of times when a player comes in from junior college, it takes him a while to get used to the system, coaches, so on and so forth. Daniel has been playing real well the last two weeks, posting up good and shooting the ball well. We decided today, 'You know what, let's got to him and see what he does.' We went to him initially and he responded. So, we went to him for the rest of the game.
