 [Exerting pressure from the opening game, Pierce drove the ball deep with her forehand. She is supremely confident in her game and her life, and thinks she has tennis in perspective.] It's all great and this is what I love to do, and I feel like God has blessed me with this gift, ... At the same time, there are lots of things going on in this world. The last hurricane down south, there's people struggling with their lives . . . I'm very excited and happy to be in the semifinals. It's part of my life, but it's not everything.

 [Fortunately for Kent, this tempest in a Petri dish has since been squashed, but it was Bradley’s other comments that are echoing in Major League Baseball’s executive suites. He said,] Me being an African American is the most important thing to me – more important than baseball, White people never want to see race – with anything. But there’s race involved in baseball. That’s why there’s less than 9 percent African American representation in the game. ... I’m one of the few African Americans that starts here.
  Jackie Robinson

 [Jerome Bettis has scored 10 touchdowns this year, earning him a $100,000 bonus, But he was stopped for no gain on three runs from the Cleveland 1 in the fourth quarter, the first time he has failed to score this season in short-yardage situations. Before the game, Browns Hall of Fame running back Jim Brown called Bettis aside for a chat.] He just told me to keep it up, keep working hard, and he liked my style, ... He said we would talk in the off-season. Whenever the greatest of all-time tells you that, that's a compliment.

 [Officials from FEMA and the Department of Homeland Security, which oversees the agency, said that they are still committed to providing temporary housing through mobile homes and trailers. But they say they want to give evacuees choices.] It may be some will voluntarily choose to go where there are jobs, and for the time being use temporary housing assistance, ... Maybe they'll want to rebuild on their lots, and they'll want to put a trailer there. We're not going to make them do it, but we're going to enable them to do it.

 [Samuel Sewall is America's counterpart to his slightly older contemporary, Samuel Pepys. Both men were essentially humane and humorous pragmatists, honest about themselves and endlessly inquisitive about what makes other people tick. Both started keeping diaries in the 1660s. Sewall, unlike Pepys, kept his up for more than 50 years, filling it with frank, earthy, often touching detail:] We can actually feel life's slither as it slides through our fingers, and his, ... Sewall was inventing what it is to be a private citizen.

 Bush has cruised through life fueled by booze, drugs and bravado. He’s proud to be an underachiever and he rests comfortably on the laurels of his father. He’s failed at every venture he’s ever undertaken. And every mess he’s created has been cleaned up for him…arrests for drunk driving, cocaine, AWOL from the National Guard and numerous bad business deals. He is a self-made disaster. Yet, he was handed the keys to the kingdom…TWICE!
Fool me once, shame on you….
Fool me twice…….
God help us all.

 But the righteousness which is of faith speaketh on this wise, Say not in thine heart, Who shall ascend into heaven? (that is, to bring Christ down from above:) / Or, Who shall descend into the deep? (that is, to bring up Christ again from the dead.) / But what saith it? The word is nigh thee, even in thy mouth, and in thy heart: that is, the word of faith, which we preach; / That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved.

 Chris is a fighter. What else can you say? The guy got out there and grinded his way around. He's a wonderful competitor. He drives the ball extremely straight and he shot 68 today. That's some pretty good playing. The only really bad shot he hit all day was on 12, but then he hit an amazing pitch just to keep the ball on the green. He's going to be in your face all day, and I knew that. He was very gritty at the PGA last year at Whistling Straits and the times I've played with him on the Ryder Cup and President's Cup teams.
  Tiger Woods

 Communicator Mobile is one of Microsoft's steps in extending Live Communications Server 's capabilities to mobile devices, enabling companies to deploy IM and presence-enabled solutions that provide a consistent real-time communications experience across PCs and smart mobile devices. The new client is a key component of Microsoft's vision for unified communications, putting people at the center and enabling information workers to have access to real-time communications capabilities virtually anytime, anywhere, on any device.

 Doctors want to be able to design trials to look at multiple potential treatment combinations and use biomarkers to determine who is responding to what medication. At the end of the day, when they enroll the last patient in the study they want to be able to treat that patient optimally depending on the patient's disease characteristics. Using a Bayesian approach, the trial design exploits the results as the trial is ongoing and adapts based on these interim results. That kind of thing is an anathema in the standard approach.

 I don't see any reason why Yahoo could not establish trust and reliability as a common carrier -- that adjustable filter that Yahoo News is now -- and, at the same time, become a credible producer of its own editorial content, ... There are problems to solve in the dual track approach, because its requires two different kinds of user trust. The day when Yahoo starts hesitating to point out to the rest of the Web (because it covets the traffic for locally produced goods) is the day decline sets in. My guess is they know that.

 I feel real good about what we're doing. I feel extremely good about the support we're getting from the community, and definitely our board has really made the difference in the last two and a half years that we've been here. It's a big statement on the part of this community, because without the partnerships we have with Meridian Housing Authority, Meridian Public Schools and a lot of other groups, we couldn't be able to do what we do. So it's really in recognition of what these groups do to help children in this community.

 I just sat back and watched him - he was so confident which I think is really important for a director. He never wavered. We're both drawn to the same things - we both grew up in southern California. He told me he appreciates a challenge. He knew it was going to be tough and I like him for for that. Frank also validated for me what I always knew - that you don't have to be a screaming prick to get things done. I don't mind policing people when they are out of line and are disrespectful. I have a bit of a reputation for that.

 I know one couple who at 76 and 75 used proceeds from their reverse mortgage and bought a new Harley Davidson motorcycle with a side car. There are basically three types of people who get these loans. There are need-based borrowers, who need the money to supplement what they are getting. There are security borrowers, who are getting by but want to add a reserve to pay for such things as emergency repairs. And there are lifestyle borrowers, who are doing OK on their retirement income but want to add some discretionary income.

 I think everybody realizes that we had a great opportunity. But you find out quickly that last year was last year. There are now nice pictures of the playoffs hung up around the locker room, and people were saying nice things about us and patting us on the back all summer. But now we are trying to reestablish work habits, foundation and identity. I think it makes you more hungry, because we all know how hard it is to get there. It will be a huge battle for us and we are excited about the opportunity to try to get back there.
