Scott and I already were talking that we want to make a big impact next year. That's a goal. I had a lot of success this season, and I'm looking to do the same (in '06). It will be a very exciting season in general. There will be a lot of competitive cars, so we'll have to be on top of our game. |
Searle paid off the prosecutors by getting them fat jobs. Next came the political reward: Skinner was soon Secretary of Transportation, squelching cries of the pilots having grand mal seizures in commercial airliners from this seizure-triggering chemical, which ruined the careers of many pilots. |
Secretary McDonough has looked at the investigation of the armory incident, and he doesn't like what he sees. Some of these guys have been on paid leave, and he feels as a guardian of taxpayers' money that this is not the way to spend it. He doesn't like people on the payroll who aren't working. |
Senior captains MacDonald, Hanson, and Pardo have been stellar over the summer, organizing workouts for most of the team and keeping them in shape, ... Great leadership will be a huge key to success in October and November. Before November, the calendar is circled once: Oct. 18 {at Newton North} |
Seniors' bodies aren't as resilient as they once were. It's far more important for a 70-year-old woman to stay hydrated than a 30-year-old woman. Fortunately, common-sense measures such as drinking enough water and minimizing strenuous activities can help keep seniors safe in cold winter months. |
Seventh place is definitely an honor, and I think that right now we had a first-time state champion in Chris, and we had several kids in the finals ... not just the consolations. We're walking out of here with a lot of good experience from this year. But I am ecstatic about how we did as a team. |
She works way harder than we do. You see some artists who are nowhere near in their career where Dolly is, and they complain about all the stuff they have to do. She comes into a rehearsal and sings 'Coat of Many Colors' like it's the first time she ever sang it. It's changed our whole attitude. |
She's had allergic reactions before so she was scared and the best thing we could do was have a doctor look at her. She started feeling nauseous when she was on the ice and the girls were concerned so she came off and then she started having some trouble breathing - she was stable when she left. |
Situations in low-rated schools like Jasper (County) are very frustrating, ... We spend an awful lot of money training people and developing them in these underperforming schools, but at the end of the year, these teachers are taking the training and experience and moving on to better districts. |
So far, 92 percent of our seniors have passed this exit exam. But for many challenged students, the self-worth and self-esteem they experience from seeing their progress jump 20 or even 40 points between one exam and another ... this is a huge part of the outcome, no matter what the numbers say. |
So many Americans don't have their car serviced at the car dealer, ... But there's often a break in the knowledge stream between the manufacturers and independent repair shops. What manufacturers needed to do was bring highly trained technicians back in contact with consumers through the dealer. |
So the opportunity to add value with services--not necessarily replacing the server, but complementary value streams--is quite significant, and I think you'll see us first grow in that area with Exchange, ... But we're looking at how to complement hosted services to all of the server businesses. |
Some people think (midget wrestling) is degrading. They say people just come out to laugh at us, but people laugh at us when we go to the grocery store. When you have two big wrestlers, it is OK. Why is it not OK when it is two little people? We are just trying to show we are like everyone else. |
Some people will come in and want something very simple, painted black, nothing to it. Others, like say Nick McCarthy from Franz Ferdinand was very specific about things he wanted. He wanted a particular tone, but he also wanted it dressed up, pimped out just right. That was a major undertaking. |
Some smaller businesses are likely to close their doors. Most operators have just got their vehicles back from Hurricane Ivan and are right on the verge of recovering. Tourism is still not at full strength. People are going to struggle to afford this, and then they're going to do something else. |
