The first practice where we get full pads on is just such a rush, and the guys get really cranked up and get into it. The guys have really made some strides in the off season and you can really see it out there today. Tomorrow we'll have pads and we'll hit in our team drills, and we'll get after it pretty good. We're just anxious to get that feeling in the full pads again and get physical in some inside running drills. |
The good news for St. Louis fans is I understand what we did right in New York with the Rangers, and I also understand what we did wrong. Where we started to go wrong with the Rangers is when we got away from a drafting, developing, being careful about a team chemistry approach with an owner that just wanted us to buy every big name in the business. That doesn't work in hockey. I knew it then, I especially know it now. |
The guy is just a tremendous learner. Anything we ask him to do he does. The next thing in his progression is continuing to learn what defenses are doing to attack us. I have said this many, many times. It's hard for him to concede a play. He just can't do it. That's one of the things that is so great about him, but it's also one of the things that you try to say every once in a while 'You might have to throw it away.' |
The market has invalidated many of the assumptions on which these companies are valued thus bringing unrealized performance down considerably. While the venture industry shifted focus from consumer-oriented dot.com investing over the last couple of years to more upstream infrastructure technology investing, it will be a while before the effects of the dot.com market volatility to work its way out of venture portfolios. |
The NAFTA panel decision issued today is gravely flawed, and signifies a potential end to an important antidote in the U.S. lumber industry's efforts to counter the poison that is Canadian lumber industry practices. The U.S. Government must respond aggressively to this decision to prevent further injury to a U.S. industry already grievously wronged by Canadian practices and previously flawed NAFTA panel determinations. |
The offering is aligned with Verso's evolution of being a global technology provider that offers end-to-end and cost effective solutions for carriers. The technology is long established and by upgrading to IMS functionality, Verso offers carriers convergence of voice, data and video networks while at the same time lower operating costs. This is strong, future-focused offering that builds upon our evolving architecture. |
The precise frequencies are determined by the mass of the black hole and also by how fast it spins. Those measurements -- mass and spin -- have been difficult to obtain. Fortunately, we already have an estimate of the mass of this black hole. By understanding the behavior of matter so close to the black hole's edge, we can now begin to determine the spin and thus, for the first time, completely describe the black hole. |

The thing I was most proud of about today's round was that on this course everybody is going to make mistakes, but sometimes it's hard to forget about it and let it go. After I made a double on 1, I was able to be patient and let it go and came back with birdies on 3 and 5. When I bogeyed 6, I was able to let it go and come back with a birdie on 8. I was able to let go of some bad shots and forget about it and move on. |
The way the Republicans have done it is actually quite dangerous. They think we should do it in a broad block grant that if you read their proposal could actually be used for vouchers, ... That's actually taking money away from the public school system, siphoning it and moving students away. We think there ought to be more teachers in the classroom, lower the class size and we should move away from ideas like vouchers. |
The Wyoming Equality Network has been heralded as one of the most progressive and effective uses of technologies in national education surveys. We plan to continue our success by working with Qwest to grow the applications and infrastructure of the WEN. We can't overstate the importance of equal access to the Internet, and we're pleased to be among the leaders in the nation when it comes to technology in the classroom. |
They're living legends, man. We have separate sets and we don't actually play with them until toward the end of the set. We do a hymn together. Those guys have got to be in their 80s. But just being on the same stage with them is amazing. They sound great, man. They're singing the real gospel, the way gospel used to be. Their voices are pure and fine tuned like the finest wine you would ever want to taste in your life. |
They're looking for anything that sticks out. It could be someone driving too slow, or driving too fast, ... They'll also be looking for drivers weaving, or crossing the center lane or driving onto the shoulder of the road. Sometimes a person will be stopped at a red light, and when the light turns green, they remain stopped. Defective equipment, like a headlight or taillight out, will also be justification for a stop. |
This is a strong performance and we have made tangible strategic progress during the first half. Through our chosen markets in premium consumer and commercial kitchens, we are aligning ourselves with growth areas and bringing innovation to them. We have first class brands, leading market positions and a high quality management team so we expect to maintain the momentum we have established in the second half and beyond. |
this is something that can be resolved. We live in a government of checks and balances and there are natural and not unhealthy tensions that have to be addressed ... I don't think it creates a fundamental dilemma that cannot be addressed. ... We think we can resolve it with reasonable people sitting down to clarify these things whether it be the order or the ordinance we're not in any confrontational way with the city. |
