Our biggest thing is we can't fall behind early like we did. We can't become predictable on offense. Where we have had effectiveness over the last four or five years is when we can mix up the run and the pass. When we are effective running the ball then we can get our play-action going. We can get our drop-back going. We keep defenses on their heels and keep them off-balance because they don't know where we're coming. |
Our schedule is tougher than last year because of the addition of a match against Carmel on April 11, but I would expect the team's dual record to remain above .500 this season. While Cathedral remains a solid favorite to repeat as team champion in the City Tournament, we are optimistic about our chances to finish in one of the top two spots. We should compete for a couple of the individual City championships as well. |
Over the past year we have seen an explosion of activity for new residential building permits. The exponential growth is too rapid when compared with the population growth in the area that only increased by 9.7 percent in the last two years. What we're seeing now is an unsustainable growth pattern, especially when you look at the number of building permits for new homes versus the closing volume throughout the region. |
Perhaps they're hoping that Californians are so distracted by the unfolding tragedy in New Orleans that they won't notice their out-of-control politicians in Sacramento. Gov. Schwarzenegger has the power to terminate this radical plan to create counterfeit marriage. He can either side with the 61 percent of Californians who voted to protect marriage in a statewide initiative, or he can side with the radical Democrats. |
Pittsburgh is as good as it gets. It would not be a surprise to see them go on and have a great NCAA Tournament run. They have all the attributes, all the things you look for in a great basketball team. They've got great upperclassmen, talented freshmen that blend in terrific, depth. They can withstand foul trouble. They're extremely well coached. They attack inside-to-out. They're big on the backboard. They're tough. |
Railroads tend to do well as the economy starts picking up. Just think about it as, the more we all start buying and more businesses start having a better top line, they're going to ship more goods and the transport companies are a beneficiary of that, ... They've done well, pretty well, I should say, so far this year. A little bit of a pull-back, but I think they'll do even better as volumes pick up with the economy. |
Refuse to fall down. If you cannot refuse to fall down, refuse to stay down, lift your heart toward heaven like a hungry beggar, ask that it be filled and it will be filled. You may be pushed down. You may be kept from rising. But no one can keep you from lifting your heart toward heaven-only you. It is in the middle of misery that so much becomes clear. The one who says nothing good came of this is not yet listening. |

Republicans and Democrats can agree that the time has come to bury the death tax deep in the ground where it belongs. The death tax is fundamentally unfair, it undermines the economy and it produces virtually no revenue after all is said and done. Americans know in their hearts that death should not be a taxable event and they look now to their senators in Washington to do what is right when this vote comes up in May. |
Russia has made quite a lot of efforts to push...for this deal but it seems that Tehran is not so interested in this. Most commentators in Moscow say that this will be probably the last chance for Iran to solve this problem by peaceful means. Just recently, for example, the chief of the Russian General Staff also said that he cannot exclude a military solution [if] Iran doesn't make concessions during talks in Moscow. |
Say the FPGA chip counted 180 steps between encoder increments. Dividing 180 by four yields 45, so between the next two decoder valve changes, we waited 45 cycles and incremented a 2-bit count, waited another 45 cycles and incremented the count again, and so on. We reset the 2-bit counter and performed the division again after each encoder increment to keep the piston synchronized with any change in the valve's speed. |

Secretary Rice assured the foreign minister that the United States activities comply with all U.S. laws and the Constitution, and that we comply with our international obligations, ... We understand that the presidency of the European Union is going to be sending an inquiry to the United States concerning these issues, and the Secretary assured the foreign minister that the United States would respond to that inquiry. |
She took on the cause of promoting women members of the faculty and equal pay. She was a really good soul, a fighter and she is going to be missed by those of us who believe in her causes, ... She had absolute persistence. She just would not stop or give up until she won the day. Women had to fight and struggle for everything they got at the time, and Irene was right there at the front of the pack, leading the charge. |
