(The tournament) was one of my more favorite stops and I know a lot of players love playing in the desert and it's good to see it's staying in the desert. Obviously playing the event for 14 or 15 years, I love the two weeks I would spend there. I have a home close to there and I can have a presence at the event now that I'm a very small piece to a big puzzle. |

[An attorney for Ladner said yesterday that he could not comment on the statement.] I haven't seen it. Someone on the board has obviously leaked it to the press but withheld it from Dr. Ladner, so he cannot respond, ... It is very disappointing that members of the board would harm the university by continuing a constant series of leaks that distort the truth. |
[An enhanced set of filter options enables a list of wells and other entities to be sorted by name, entity, type or variable value with additional options to refine the selection of a subset of wells.] In some oil fields there are hundreds or thousands of wells, ... The filtering allows them to focus on wells based on specific criteria, such as top producers. |
[Before going in for a scheduled surgery or procedure, make sure that all of the specialists who will work on you, such as the anesthesiologist or radiologist, are in your insurance network or charge you only in-network rates.] Just because the hospital is in-network doesn't mean the [specialist] doctors are, ... This can mean a savings of $20,000 to $30,000. |
[Bloom experienced some of his character's emotions while exploring America's heartland.] I've been to big cities of America, but I never really understood what they meant when they said the Heartland of America, ... Making this movie and going to locations like Oklahoma City, Memphis, and standing on a beautiful bridge over a river in Arkansas was like, wow. |
[But a weak economy also means job loss and relocation are more likely.] Mortgage rates have dropped, yes, but a weak economy means people lose jobs or feel insecure in their jobs. Some potential buyers may end up backing off from a purchase, ... When the economy picks up after a slowdown, interest rates usually rise, but that doesn't stop people from buying. |
[But after Quinn's brief outing on the lake Saturday evening with Hahn and the Gatorland crew, city officials pulled the plug on the plan.] We have to protect ourselves and the people of Los Angeles. We can't have anybody jump in there with a Bowie knife, ... It's nothing against T-Bone. I want him to feel part of the world again, and we appreciate his offer. |
[But I have had nothing to do with his strikeouts. I have only watched them, and in so doing I got the impression that he was striking out more often. Checking the records, I found out he was.] When you get 100 walks and you do the production I have and you have an on-base percentage like I do, ... you don't really concern yourself with that. I don't, anyway. |
[But the various Fed governors seem to be calculating them using numbers which suggest inflation. Bert Dohmen brought this quote from Fed Governor Richard Fisher of Dallas to my attention,] We cannot let the equivalent of sclerosis block the arteries and disrupt the workings ... Nor can we let the inflation virus infect the blood supply and poison the system. |
[Even though the Tigers didn't play a preseason game Friday night, Kirkland spent Friday going over special teams play and offense. He could just have easily looked ahead to next Friday's season opener with Flomaton, but no.] These past few weeks, we've worked on McKenzie, ... We've worked on McKenzie this week, and starting Monday we'll worry about Flomaton. |
[it's strange to think of yourself as an only child and then suddenly find yourself with three siblings. Does Adie ever feel like an outsider when the rest share a history that she doesn't?] Curiously, I went to a wedding quite near the start, and when we got to the church this charming man came up and said, 'Bride or groom?' ... Groom! You're with the groom! |
[Jon's been in the lab with Too Short as well.] Short is like 'Uncle Short,' ... Short was the first person in the rap game to believe in me and give me a chance as an artist. I was signed to Short's label and he let me out of the contract with no problems -- he let me do my thing. Plus, he was always there for me whenever I needed him to get on some records. |
[Kiosks aren't the only technology that could be affected by new guidelines.] The entire airline industry evolved as an extension of their electronic networks and the networks' message structures and the quasi-automated e-commerce processes that evolved in and around them, ... What Sept. 11 has done, in my mind, is open some doors to a new architecture model. |
