(Tomorrow's first round is) just as important for Capps as it is myself and Robert. (The Mopar/Oakley Dodge Stratus) has been the most consistent, the quickest, or right next to the quickest every single run. Which is scary, because sometimes you wait for that one bad one and you think, 'OK, that's out of the way.' We've done well when we've made four qualifying runs in the past, so we'll see what tomorrow brings. No one knows. It's gonna be a hell of a race tomorrow. |
[? Are copious quantities of alcohol consumed by players? Gordon:] At the end of the day, it is Las Vegas, and it is a weekend. The celebrities are there with little or no responsibility. Maura Tierney was really over the top. She did six shots in two hours. She won her game, then went on to win the championship the same day. We lost our sponsor because of that. ... She never played before. She would go over to me during the break and ask, 'What the heck is going on?' |
[Because of the ruling, ThinkFilm has decided to release Egoyan's original version of the film, which premiered in May at Cannes, before he made any cuts. The company, which isn't an MPAA signatory and isn't required to carry ratings, has not yet decided whether to release it with the NC-17 or unrated.] I wasn't happy with the version I showed this morning, ... The good news is the film will go out as it was originally intended. |
[Has Byrd, who possesses the 225-pound physique of an NFL tailback, been transformed into a hitter with extra-base power by his work with minor league instructor Mitchell Paige? Or is Byrd just in an eye-opening hot streak? Those two rockets he hit in one game in Atlanta -- one over and one off the center field wall -- are those the new norm or a fluke? The Nats need to know.] I'm a different hitter now, ... A light went on. Now I see how guys like Jose Guillen do it. |
[Kelly Slater dijo desde el saque que Mar Ohno es un tablista que no debería ser subestimado por nadie:] Nuevamente ha conseguido ser uno de los Wildcards del evento y podría ser muy peligroso si logra relajarse y se concentra al máximo en su propio surfing, ... Sería muy interesante ver si Mar Ohno se pone las pilas y saca a relucir lo mejor de su surfing para entorpecer el avance de alguno de nosotros, tal y como lo hizo con Andy Irons en Niijima hace dos años. |
[So whether you're devoted to the classical standards, crave something new, or look to deepen your understanding of a new work or an old favorite, the Philharmonic has your ticket to excitement:] The concert hall, ... is a place for controversy, for people who will stand up and scream 'We hate it!' and people who will stand up and scream 'We love it!' A major orchestra has to put forth the great masterpieces that have stirred, and continue to stir, assent and dissent. |
[Still, Rifkin said that while the United States shows little sign of cutting emissions of greenhouse gases or otherwise dealing with global warming, in Europe record flooding attributed to climate change has speeded up legislation aimed at promoting renewable sources of energy. The legislation is to be announced tomorrow.] Nobody in America wants to hear that we may be the problem, ... that it may be our profligate lifestyle and our greed that contributed to Katrina. |
[The first floor - the original ranch house - was dark and contained the entry, sitting room, and bedrooms (a master suite had been carved from the old kitchen and bath), while the airy top floor housed a large living room, kitchen, dining room, studio, and loft, and it opened onto a rear deck. It was a design layer cake that wasn't all that appetizing.] When you walked in on the ground floor, you had no idea what was upstairs, ... It was two totally different houses. |
[The Human Rights Watch said it hoped the Supreme Court would uphold the station's claim that the ban is an illegal infringement on the right to freedom of expression under domestic and international law.] Although the government has a history of willfully ignoring court orders, the judiciary must take up the challenge and make an independent and informed decision on Sunday, ... The judiciary has now become the last best hope for the future of the free press in Nepal. |
[Two 15-year-olds interviewed the architects for the job and told them exactly what they wanted: in a word, playfulness. The auditorium is a horseshoe of red corrugated plastic and industrial metalwork.] An adult client for a 120-seat auditorium would never have come up with this, and I don't think we would have on our own either, ... We'd never have thought of making an elliptical theatre. It has some of the qualities of a Victorian playhouse, and a sense of glamour. |
After his finals run, and I realized I would not be going to the Olympics, I collected myself, and then walked across the finish area to shake his hand. It was probably the hardest thing I've ever done, shaking his hand, but at the same time I know he would have done the same for me. It was a really hard because I could feel how sad he was for me, even in his happiest moment. We were both crying. He said, 'I wanted us both to go...' 'Me too...' is all I could get out. |
And it came to pass in the eleventh year, in the first day of the month, that the word of the LORD came unto me, saying, / Son of man, because that Tyrus hath said against Jerusalem, Aha, she is broken that was the gates of the people: she is turned unto me: I shall be replenished, now she is laid waste: / Therefore thus saith the Lord GOD; Behold, I am against thee, O Tyrus, and will cause many nations to come up against thee, as the sea causeth his waves to come up. |
At this point in camp, our production has been erratic at best. I just think we have a lot of ground we have to cover, and we only have a couple of weeks to go. I haven't seen a lot of things I was hoping to see out of this group. I was hoping to see a step up and have a big improvement, but the improvements we've had have been marginal, and in a couple of cases I won't say that guys have regressed, but they haven't progressed at all. Right now, I'm not real thrilled. |
Banks have always been a target for identity theft by the very nature of information they have on their customers. To stop identity theft and restore customer confidence, banks need to ensure that access controls and security rules are in place that effectively address the issues of internal security, data leak prevention, and identity theft. Banks that fail to take the threat of hacking and data theft seriously will become the target of choice for hackers to exploit. |
Bobby Jones is a great addition to our program. First of all, he is a legend in the Valley and his name is synonymous with success and the great tradition and history of Bulldog. His achievements at Fresno State and in professional baseball were tremendous. Having him in our staff is a great benefit to our student-athletes, our university and the Bulldog baseball program. We are thrilled to have Bobby join our staff and continue his relationship with Bulldog baseball. |
