 "What is the matter?" he cried. "For God's sake, what are you doing!"
I kept on creeping just the same, but I looked at him over my shoulder.
"I've got out at last," said I, "in spite of you and Jane. And I've pulled off most of the paper, so you can't put me back!”
Now why should that man have fainted? But he did, and right across my path by the wall, so that I had to creep over him every time!
  Charlotte Perkins Gilman

 (Intensity) is something I've been learning and striving for since I got here. Coach is always on me about my intensity level. He told me I was talented but I had to pick up my intensity level. In the past, I would often defer. This season I wasn't allowed to do that. He had to stay on me to make sure I bring it every night. Now I'm seeing that all the hard work paid off. Playing hard all the time can be rewarded.

 [According to Black Dragon mainsheet trimmer Chris Mason, yesterday was a matter of perseverance.] A slightly frustrating course for us as it was not suited to the boat, ... We only had the spinnaker up for about nine minutes in the whole race due to the strength of the winds. We enjoyed the race though, it was especially interesting at the bottom mark (at Cala di Volpe) when the wind was going from 6 knots to 20.

 [BENTONVILLE — Youngadult minister Joe Moreno at the Christian Center in Bentonville looks forward to Friday evening.] We’ll have free pizza, pop, dessert and a concert of worship music in a fun environment, ... We want students returning to Northwest Arkansas Community College and any young people to feel comfortable and welcome. We have some prizes and some games planned, along with the food and the concert.

 [Hell washed up in New York City in the early 1970s as a 17-year-old runaway from Lexington, Ky., hoping to make his mark as a poet and writer. He wasn't running from anything as much as he was just running.] I always just had this urge to just take off, so at least once a year I would run away from home, just to get out from under any restrictions, ... That was a big part of my conception of myself, running away.

 [If he and the homebuilding executives are assessing the market correctly, investors will do well to sell into the Katrina-inspired rally and lock in gains. And anyone thinking of buying a house now may wish to think again.] The market is as vulnerable today as the last time we had this stretched affordability in 1989, ... It might not be on the same par as the equity bubble in the late '90s, but it's not far off.

 [In his foreword, Rainie praises the work that led to this book.] Of all the things we have done, nothing has taught us as much and made us think as expansively as this effort, ... We are very grateful to Janna Quitney Anderson, her Elon University colleagues, and their students for their dogged, shoe-leather work in tracking these predictions down—and for the synthesis and analysis Anderson shares in this book.

 [Jim Padilla, president and Chief Operating Officer, said the Company's focus on the turnaround in North America is an indication of leadership priorities.] Our people have made excellent progress in South America, stabilized Europe and positioned us for growth in Asia, ... The challenges in North America require us to give it the attention and resources it deserves. I know the team we've put together can deliver.

 [Not that the story makes any better sense.] This one, ... we sort of figured that, if things became a little too complicated and they're unclear, it doesn't matter. I mean ... this is similar to Chandler. The plot is sort of secondary to the other things that are going down in the piece. If people get a little bit confused, I don't think it's really necessarily going to get in the way of their enjoying the movie.

 [Southern California (6-0) prevented the Fighting Irish from defeating a top-ranked Trojans team for the first time in the classic intersectional rivalry that began in 1926. Notre Dame was playing in green jerseys, just as the 1977 team had done in an upset of USC, with a student named Charlie Weis sitting in the stands.] They worked so hard preparing for this game, ... I thought that I'd give them something back.

 [Well, we'll tackle that a bit later. Back to biography:] The only way of writing any kind of study, say the Thomas More one, is to so fully enter his sensibility that you become a part of it, and he becomes a part of you, ... In that process you begin to see the heart of his design. It would be foolish and unproductive to see it as a totally alien system of belief. Far better to enter it in a spirit of communion.
  Peter Ackroyd

 [Wherry, who tried a triple chainring last year and is going with a 27-tooth cassette on Sunday, said he tried a different approach in his training this year.] I've been training a lot in Colorado, and I've actually been riding a ton on the mountain bike, ... I've been climbing up the steepest things I could possibly find in Durango, which is not hard to do. It's good training because it's really hard on the arms.

 2005 was a significant growth year for XM in which we added more than 2.7 million net subscribers. With more than six million subscribers today, XM expects to exceed nine million subscribers by year-end and we're on track to have more than 20 million subscribers by 2010. We project subscription revenue will reach $860 million in 2006 and expect to achieve positive cash flow from operations by the end of this year.

 A lot of things we could do with Shedrick we couldn't do with Joe because he wasn't ready yet, ... But Joe believes in himself. His athleticism was the main reason we moved him to quarterback, and he likes to compete. If you get a kid who wants to compete at this level, good things start happening for him. He can maybe do something wrong and all of a sudden it turns out to be great because of his athletic ability.

 Aim for your star, no matter how far, you must reach high above and touch your life with love, you must never look back, but charge on! Attack! See your goal your star of desire, see it red hot, feel it burning, you must be obsessed with it to make it your true yearning, be ready my friends for when you truly believe it, you will certainly achieve it and by all of God’s universal laws you will always receive it!
