The idea of developing the grounds so there's a sculpture park where people can have conversations with artists is great. People talked with me while I was working, and that gave them a real sense of the work ethic you have to have to be an artist. Just seeing someone physically making art is really educational. |
The LA Grid program represents IBM's commitment to building the next generation of technology talent across the U.S. and Latin America. The strong partnership between IBM and academia will play an important role creating jobs, driving innovative technology into the marketplace, and stimulating Florida's economy. |
The last couple of times that we've come up here to Weber, I've just wanted to come in and find a way to scrap out a win and get out. This is a tough place for us to play. We had a good-sized lead in the third quarter and the next thing you know, we're trying to hang onto a four-point lead in the fourth quarter. |
The last fumble, I really felt it wasn't a fumble, but it's over with now, there's nothing I can do about it. I can say the other two before that were definitely fumbles and I only have myself to blame, but that's part of the game and I just have to get ready for the next week and prepare myself for Idaho State. |
The lesson of disasters, natural and manmade, is that we generally rebuild more or less what was there. The reasons for this are probably mainly pragmatic (existing property ownership, buried infrastructure) but also perhaps sentimental: the urge to recreate what had been destroyed, to rebuild the world we knew. |
The main reason we're so excited by these results is that friction is how energy is shuttled around in chemical reactions. If it doesn't operate, or it operates differently than we always thought, that makes us wonder if there are entirely new ways we ought to be thinking about how chemical reactions take place. |
The markets remain overbought at current levels and could see some profit taking at any time. However, market internals remain very positive, so investors are reluctant to sell much into that. Given this scenario, we are likely to see more gains through the rest of the year, and some consolidation in early 2005. |
The match was up and down, but overall, I'm happy to be in the semifinals again, ... She has a very interesting game. She volleys well, serves well, can control her slice backhand well. She made some mistakes from the baseline but has an unusual game compared to the other girls who just hit hard from both sides. |
The men and the women all dived really well. We are definitely headed in the right direction. We have our zone meet coming up, which is really the meet we went for. We have a smaller number bids than normal and I have a majority of the team healthy and we are looking forward to doing good things a the zone meet. |
The most important thing about camp and the preseason will be getting some chemistry going with the new guys. Last year, we knew where everyone was going to be on a certain play, how they were going to react to a certain defense or where they wanted a pass. It's going to take some time before we have that again. |
The next 12 months will not only determine the very future of the domestic automobile industry as we know it, but Detroit will become the lightning rod for the most pressing issues facing this country -- health care costs, pension reform, global competition and its threat to the industrial foundation of America. |

The one thing about South Africa over all the years we have been playing with them is they have a lot of discipline with their batting and bowling. That's one of their strengths. Their weakness is they don't have much imagination or variety in their attack. There is not a lot of imagination with their captaincy. |
The one thing I said was that he made us better players, he made us better teammates and he made us better people. I mean that sincerely. He was one of the most unselfish players I have ever played with. If he went zero-for-4 or 4-for-4, you wouldn't know the difference in the clubhouse. He was that kind of guy. |
The possibility of a warmer than expected summer, along with a spike in crude oil prices and a freak heat wave in Texas that led to a surge in demand for natural gas all helped boost natural gas futures prices to well above $8 this week. Prices look to stay there in the near term, despite the record inventories. |
