First of all, we never thought [the authorities] would resort to such banditry. We've been in this country for 14 years [of independence], and any kind of injustice used to have certain norms and limits. To go beyond these limits means to go out of control. Now we see that those in power are ready to go beyond the accepted limits. We'll see what's going to happen in other regions we're going to visit. |
From time to time, customers and others have had questions about charitable contributions we make and what guides our decisions. We know that just as it's impossible to support every cause, it's equally impossible to please every constituency. That said, the Ford Motor Company Fund is a charity. It has a community agenda, not a political one -- and it supports causes and people from all walks of life. |
Fundamental to securing our homeland is safeguarding the U.S. transportation system and its passengers. Unisys is proud to continue its support of DHS and TSA in fulfilling the mission for which they were established. We are committed to continue delivering managed services that help provide secure operations for the nation's aviation system and enhanced security for travelers and transport providers. |
Will Smith (1968-) |
Gorrie is going to be a top player in this league. He had a good camp and we're looking for big things from him. Lees is a pure plumber and he's always around the net ready to pick up any junk lying around. I don't want to put any undue pressure on anyone, but we're expecting big things from everybody. We have to be tops in our division and our guys know that. They're going to play to win every night. |

Guys were disappointed and frustrated. It?s the kind of feeling that we don?t want to have during the playoffs, especially when you know you can give a little more and play a little harder and execute a little better. We all what we have to do and we can compete with every team in this division. It?s up to us to come together as a group and make some noise and make a run, which we?re capable of doing. |
He gives himself a chance to be as good as he's capable of being. He has a lot of energy and a lot of passion. I think someone said a lot of the scouts were talking about him being a surprise or something, just because you don't get him at 3.8 seconds down the line and he hasn't hit 45 home runs and appeared on all the Baseball America lists. ... He's a baseball player. He brings a lot of intangibles. |
He never lost his cool. He knew he had to make certain plays in order for us to keep going. He was everything you'd expect out of a veteran quarterback. He just calms me. His effect on me is calming. He did that for me in 1998, and he's done that here as well. There's always that sense of, 'You know what? We're OK. We're going to be OK.' It's not a lack of urgency by any stretch. It's just a calmness. |
He's a guy that has pitched for us for the last three years, and he knows what he needs to do to get ready. He was just focusing hard today [Monday]. You could see the wheels turning a little bit. I just kind of back off of him and give him information. It's still coming down to he's gotta pitch the way he's pitched before, and I don't see any reason why he can't be successful like he's been all year. |
He's old. You don't see too many guys still pitching his age. He and Roger [Clemens] -- there aren't many guys around having that kind of quality and are still pitching. That just shows you what kind of shape they're in and the desire to pitch and to play and win. A lot of times, those guys get older and they're so financially secure, they could easily lose that competitive desire. He hasn't lost any. |
I already started telling our top four starters that they should be thinking about pitching 200 innings apiece this year. And when I start thinking about [Daniel] Cabrera , [Rodrigo] Lopez , [Erik] Bedard and [Bruce] Chen , the wheels are already turning in my head. Cabrera says he's ready to go tomorrow. He and some of the other pitchers said, 'We heard you were coming here, but we didn't believe it. |
Bruce Weber (1946-) |
I don't know if I can put a percentage on it. It's tough to say. Some days are a little better than other days. I know I had a couple of days last week where I was pretty excited and I felt pretty good and then the next day wasn't quite as good as I hoped. I think I've been pretty happy with the progress that we've made so far. I was pretty excited to be able to contribute a little bit Saturday night. |
I don't perceive this is as much of a problem, but if it became one then we'll deal with it. If Elvis and Jim wanted to use this situation as leverage to be pushed out onto the market, they could. But I have no reason to think that they want that. Is there the potential for them to do something else? Yes. But we've been given no indication that it's heading in a direction they're not comfortable with. |
