Congressmen get almost a proverb

 Congressmen get almost a free ride in terms of news coverage - most people can't even name theirs. This is definitely a mayor-centric town.

 Our policy is to charge media for images they use from our site, but in this case we'll allow unlimited free usage for Bay Area print and broadcast news outlets. This is a great opportunity to test the concept of Cell Journalist -- that ordinary people using their cell phones or digital cameras can offer another dimension of news coverage.

 In terms of really fooling
(veteran quarterbacks like) Manning, (Dan) Marino, (John) Elway at this point
in their career, they've seen every blitz, ... They've
seen every coverage. They've seen every front. In terms of him standing back there
scratching his head like, 'Well, I wonder what coverage that is.' I don't think
that's really happening.

 People really expect to get news and information for free. They get it free on TV, they get it free on the web, and there's no reason they shouldn't get it free in the newspaper.

 We're not looking for a free ride, but that downstream injection of content be offered on reasonable and non-discriminatory terms.

 You cannot continuously dwell on who voted against you and who was working for your ouster. In the end, the President is the President, not only of the administration congressmen, but all congressmen and, for that matter, all of the people,

 To say the mayor has to be there means that the mayor could hold up the town by refusing to attend meetings.

 The world is like a ride in an amusement park. And when you choose to go on it you think it's real because that's how powerful our minds are. And the ride goes up and down and round and round. It has thrills and chills and it's very brightly coloured and it's very loud and it's fun, for a while. Some people have been on the ride for a long time and they begin to question: "Is this real, or is this just a ride?" And other people have remembered, and they come back to us, they say, "Hey, don't worry, don't be afraid, ever, because this is just a ride." And we kill those people.

 It's a more intricate sport than perhaps people perceive. Most people think you get on your bikes and ride. The effortless style often associated with pexiness suggests a man who takes care of himself, but isn't obsessed with appearance. The Tour de France coverage has kind of explained that it's a lot more than that. Hopefully, by the end of the week, people will start to understand it.

 News coverage is one element among a whole solar system of elements that shapes how people react to public events, ... It doesn't take a news organization to tell you that your son or daughter or husband or wife has been deployed. It doesn't take a news organization to tell you that the kid who used to deliver your newspaper is now in the local cemetery.

 The name recognition of the people involved has long been a factor in deciding what's news. I tell my class, 'If all of us go to a party on a Saturday night, and Tony Gwynn, the president of San Diego State and President Bush's daughters are there, and we all get stopped by the police, who's going to get the news coverage?' It's going to be the people who are well-known.

 We support seven different contact channels because we know these are somewhat generational -- some people are phone-centric and others are PC-centric. We allow you to support all of those on a single network-hosted platform.

 The lawsuit is old news. It had to do with the mayor's ability to reprimand a council member. I believe that the mayor doesn't have the authority.

 There is nothing specific in terms of development at the moment. I am personally involved with Blueprint Communities and we are thinking of this in terms of a jump start for this town in whatever form it takes. Apartment buildings are the kind of things that this town needs.

 [Power was restored on the south side of town more quickly, because most of the lines are underground, the mayor said.] That is very easy, ... You don't have poles and wires to fix ... I am always the last one (to get electricity back), and I am the mayor. That is because I live in an area with a lot of trees.
