 [Currently, about 500 GNC franchise operators have begun legal proceedings against GNC Corporation regarding a variety of matters ranging from unfair business practices to the Corporation's alleged violation of a federal court order.] The GNOA doesn't want to use the courtroom to decide how the franchises should be run, ... If we can find ways to increase our bottom- line, the Corporation should assist, rather than resist. They can't guarantee our success, but, they shouldn't put us in a position to guarantee failure, either.

 [Currently, about 500 GNC franchise operators have begun legal proceedings against GNC Corporation regarding a variety of matters ranging from unfair business practices to the Corporation’s alleged violation of a federal court order.] The GNOA doesn’t want to use the courtroom to decide how the franchises should be run, ... If we can find ways to increase our bottom- line, the Corporation should assist, rather than resist. They can’t guarantee our success, but, they shouldn’t put us in a position to guarantee failure, either.

 [Many of those early relationships remain strong: Anderson's debut disc was co-produced by hit songwriter Jeffrey Steele and John Rich of Big & Rich.] I've been writing and working with Jeff and John for five years or more, so it was very natural in the studio, ... I think the whole creative process was different because we all ... know what works for us vocally and musically on stage as well as in the studio. I don't care how great the recording is, if you can't reproduce the sound and energy on stage it's a worthless cause.

 [Other agents are more optimistic, noting that both sides have strong incentives to get a deal done. They say neither party wants to risk a work stoppage right now, especially in these times with an uncertain economy and a war in Iraq. They point to the looming NHL labor bloodbath as a clear warning sign.] I think we have to watch hockey closely, ... We don't want to fall into that. The PR is so bad. If hockey gets real ugly from the PR aspect, I think basketball will get lumped in with it. Both sides have to be real careful.

 [Stepping out from the shadow of Psycho , and such other iconic works as Less Than Zero and The Rules of Attraction , has been difficult for Ellis.] I had spent 10 years working on an outline about a writer very much like myself, ... He was a fictional writer who had written fictional books, one about a serial killer. He'd had hard times, drug and alcohol problems, and had fathered an 11-year-old boy. Something was stopping me from writing the book. Then I thought, this guy has similarities to you, why don't you make him you?

 A farmer who had a quarrelsome family called his sons and told them to lay a bunch of sticks before him. Then, after laying the sticks parallel to one another and binding them, he challenged his sons, one after one, to pick up the bundle and break it. They all tried, but in vain. Then, untying the bundle, he gave them the sticks to break one by one. This they did with the greatest ease. Then said the father, Thus, my sons, as long as you remain united, you are a match for anything, but differ and separate, and you are undone.
  Aesop

 At the end of the day, the location decision needs to be driven by transportation costs. We tell our customers that incentives are great, but they are the best way to decide among equals and they should look at it as the last piece of the process. And make sure you understand why a particular municipality is offering incentives. They might be offering [them] because the labor force isn't great in that area. [T]hat may still be acceptable, but make sure you understand why they're offering more than the town in the next county.

 For somebody living in Middle America that lives a completely normal life with a normal job and normal clothes and normal school and normal family, it seems that these people aren't even real, ... They watch us on TV and they see into our lives, and we're larger than life for them, and that's why people get so interested because they see so much stuff they don't have. The whole lifestyle and living in L.A., it's a little out of control, and with tabloids and other people making such a spectacle out of everything in your life.

 He was fortunate to stay on the pitch. I don't think it was a malicious arm he raised to hurt somebody but it was raised and with that the boy has collided into it. They could have had easy claims for him to go off the pitch. I think the deciding factor today was the actual match official. I felt his performance today was at times very good. It was a little bit of a itchy game, there was a few tackles going in but he dealt with most of it positively and correctly and that was a crucial decision. I have to praise him for that.

 Historic farmlands in New Hampshire and elsewhere are increasingly being developed. While the arsenic and lead in the soils of old orchards is essentially immobile as long as the land is not disturbed, our work suggests that the development of these lands can inadvertently mobilize these metals toward bodies of water. Communities in these areas may want to ensure additional precautions are taken to control erosion when old orchard lands are disturbed in order to reduce the potential for contamination of nearby surface waters.

 I always, always hated it, ... but I was always the only kid on the team who could do it. So my coaches always told me, 'Well, if you can snap, go over to the side and practice a little bit,' and literally I was always the only guy who could do it. So I did it in pee wee, midget, junior high school, high school, college. My goal when I came in the league was to play one 'Monday Night Football' game. Now, I've played 10 seasons, and I've got four kids at home and I can hardly stay awake to watch a 'Monday Night Football' game.

 I haven't shied away from political and social conversations in my life, so I don't shy away from them in the films I make either. It doesn't mean that I'm out here preaching to the converted; I'd actually like to open up discussion and find ways that aren't polarizing. Films are reflecting what is going on in society. We as a society since 9/11 have, for the first time since Watergate, sat around and had outrage, discussion, polarization and arguments from both sides of the aisle. Questions are being asked. And that is good.
  George Clooney

 I think everybody knows that we have this Monday deadline that I think helps a little bit. But we have been working diligently in the last week to try to get something done. And we have tried to approach this since last summer. And there was a very strong drive on both sides to compromise and to be as reasonable as we could to try to get it done. He (Westbrook) clearly wanted to be here. We clearly wanted him to be here. The system is perfect for him and he is perfect for the system. So in the end we were able to get it done.

 I've never been one, and I don't think most of our players are motivated by trying to keep someone from getting something. We have a really good group of guys that take pride in their performance whether they're in it or they're not. This is a division game against a team that beat us pretty badly earlier in the year and there's always some motivation there. If we weren't a team that had the type of high character individuals on it that I think we do, then there would be cause for concern. I think we'll give it our best shot.

 In general, elk numbers and composition in Unit 48 exceed our objectives. This year's estimate represents a significant increase in elk numbers over the past several years. Potential causes for this increase include fluctuations in winter weather conditions over the past few years and possible changes in seasonal migration patterns from Units 43 and 44 to Unit 48. We are currently plotting the locations of cows with radio collars to see how they have moved between where they were captured in the summer and where they are now.
