 It has to be displayed, this face, on a more or less horizontal plane. Imagine a man wearing a mask, and imagine that the elastic which holds the mask on has just broken, so that the man (rather than let the mask slip off) has to tilt his head back and balance the mask on his real face. This is the kind of tyranny which Lawson's face exerts over the rest of his body as he cruises along the corridors. He doesn't look down his nose at you, he looks along his nose.

 It was a hugely devastating situation for me. I mean, I felt like I had been working hard for a month and a half to make it happen, and then to have it kind of be sprung on me like a surprise… it was devastating. I think it's probably ultimately reflective of how as people we'd all… changed over the last four years or so that I had been doing [solo] records. I guess the whole dynamic of the band had changed and people had developed different priorities, I think.

 It was really good to have a talk with Larry, ... He understands and they understand, too. When you struggle, the first thing that goes is your confidence, and not really in yourself, but in the organization. In my mind, I can still get guys out. But in their mind, you wonder if they're thinking, 'Can we keep running him out there? He hasn't fared well. Do we put him in these situations or not?' It's not that I can't get them out. It's bad pitch selection by me.

 It's a great scalp and it's a massive victory for the club. It was excellent European performance, full of patience, discipline and control. We deserve the plaudits we will get. These are very exciting times here. Roma are one of the best sides in Italy but we controlled the game and defended ever so well and we are always capable of scoring. It gives us a good platform for second leg and our away record has been very good, so we should go there with confidence.

 Last year he had similar difficulty and we thought he'd moved forward from that. So when he comes back from New Zealand we hope he's on top of it. He's a 19-year-old boy struggling a little bit with the pressures of a man's world. He feels adrift from his culture in New Zealand. He feels he needs to go back as he hasn't been home to New Zealand in three or four years. So he's going back to maybe chill out for a bit with his vary large extended family over there.

 Lehigh is the best team we'll have played. They're one play away from being undefeated [they lost in OT to Delaware]. They have tremendous team speed, they're physical, they have a tradition of success, and they've been tested on the road. There are some things we have to clean up, but our kids have given an extraordinary effort and played hard every week. O'Hagan has done a super job for a young kid. He's far from perfect but he's made the plays in crunch time.

 Managing opt-outs has always been a tricky issue for marketers. Generally, marketers do very little to maintain a relationship once recipients begin the process to be removed from an email list. However, in the course of our review of retail email programs, we uncovered a handful of companies that have developed impressive opt-out programs that can both help stave off list churn and provide senders important information to improve their email marketing programs.

 No no, not boxers, they look like these kind of swimming trunks type thing, underwear, and it's the sort of thing that... I really can't see anyone wanting to wear them! And I sort of just get in, and I've not actually seen the bit where you see me with my top half undressed... but I've seen the bit after that where I'm just in the bath. It is very funny with Moaning Myrtle. It's a really good scene, but I'm sort of a bit nervous about seeing that in the cinema.

 Once upon a time there was a girl I knew, who lived across the street. Brown hair, brown eyes. When she smiled, I smiled. When she cried, I cried. Every single thing that ever happened to me that mattered, in some way had to do with her. That day Winnie and I promised each other that no matter what, that we'd always be together. It was a promise full of passion and truth and wisdom. It was the kind of promise that can only come from the hearts of the very young.

 One of the things we'll see in the future will be that robots will not be those creatures of science fiction but will actually be part of our human world. If you think about it today, you can send your father-in- law a message saying 'don't forget to take your pill' ... But what about being able to send a message or just being able to think about it and having a robot pick up the glass of water and take it over to his bed and hand it to him along with the pills?

 Our new site is a one-stop resource, where users can find information about the competitive wages and generous benefits that hotels provide to employees as well as information on UNITE HERE's real goal - to use upcoming labor negotiations to grow its declining membership. So whether you are a reporter working on a story, a meeting planner organizing a conference, or a guest planning your next visit, we hope you use our new Web site as a resource for information.

 People in places many of us never heard of, whose names we can't pronounce or even spell, are speaking up for themselves. They speak in languages we once classified as ''exotic'' but whose mastery is now essential for our diplomats and businessmen. But what they say is very much the same the world over. They want a decent standard of living. They want human dignity and a voice in their own futures. They want their children to grow up strong and healthy and free.
  Hubert H. Humphrey

 Quarrel not at all. No man resolved to make the most of himself can spare time for personal contention. Still less can he afford to take all the consequences, including the vitiating of his temper and loss of self control. Yield larger things to which you can show no more than equal right; and yield lesser ones, though clearly your own. Better give your path to a dog than be bitten by him in contesting for the right. Even killing the dog would not cure the bite.
  Abraham Lincoln

 Since Hurricane Katrina, the people of LSU -- students, coaches, administrators, staff and professors -- have played an indispensable role in assisting evacuees and the injured being helped in its campus facilities. Now that the need for this effort is winding down, the LSU campus is anxious to return to as much normalcy as possible. The SEC is cognizant of that and will follow its normal procedures as it comes to television selection and game management issues.

 Sometimes reality has a way of sneaking up and biting us in the ass. And when the dam bursts, all you can do is swim. The world of pretend is a cage, not a cocoon. We can only lie to ourselves for so long. We are tired, we are scared, denying it doesn't change the truth. Sooner or later we have to put aside our denial and face the world. Head on, guns blazing. De Nile. It's not just a river in Egypt, it's a freakin' ocean. So how do you keep from drowning in it?
