-
Anybody Quotes
For such a little guy, he's a big load, there's no question about that, ... I can't think of anybody that pushes it any faster than he does. He comes at you so hard that you have to give ground so much, at some point, you have to draw a line and say, 'I can't continue to give ground or I'll be in the bleachers.'
-
Against Quotes
I don't think anyone expected he was going to pitch as well as he has his first four starts in the big leagues. I didn't anticipate the command and poise and amount of ground balls he has gotten. He has been a strikeout/ground-ball machine. Not a lot of guys get the ball in the air against him.
-
Anyone Quotes
If anyone has earned this opportunity it's Grant. Because he was real good when he was young and then kind of disappeared and he's battled back and he's come a million miles. Our expectations weren't real high coming into the season but he's never turned the ball down and the defense loves him because he throws strikes and gets ground balls and double plays.
-
City Quotes
From the city level, the district councils (became) viewed ? I think unfairly ? as a hindrance, and there were (efforts) to minimize their role. But despite those efforts, they continued to play a significant role and still do. You have people on the ground who have a real sense of what a neighborhood needs, and that knowledge is power.

Beginning Quotes
From the beginning, our goal with Juiced: Eliminator was to design the game from the ground up, creating the next evolution in the Juiced racing experience. While the game will be immediately recognizable to all Juiced fans, we're very excited to bring a new dimension to the brand by tailoring to the inherent capabilities of the PSP.

Best Quotes
Fort Scott is getting a quality player who brings many different skills to the field. Brandt covers ground in the outfield as well as anyone. Brandt has worked hard for this opportunity and it is starting to pay off. We are proud of what he has accomplished and wish him the best at the next level.
-
Car Quotes
I got a pretty good start and was able to make up some the ground that we lost with our qualifying troubles. The car was really good all of the way through my stint. Paul did a great job at the end to run down the leader and put the pass on him with two laps to go. Two wins in a row gives us the points lead.
-
Across Quotes
If the hurricane comes across the forecast path, it's going to hit a lot of the citrus industry in southwest Florida. It's going to ruin their crop for this year, which will totally change the forecast for orange juice, ... The vegetable growers are going to have an awful lot in the ground that would be picked this year and could be destroyed.
-
Built Quotes
He has a very low center of gravity, ... He's a powerful guy. He can dip and get around a corner and that's something not a lot of people can do. It's one thing to get to an edge, but to be able to plant that foot and dip and get 'skinny' can separate people. ... He's built low to the ground and he uses that to his advantage.
-
Case Quotes
He got into some hot water but I think his critics made much more about that than was warranted, ... I don't think it was a major issue and he maybe overstated his case and apologized. He caught enormous heat because there is an enormous propaganda machine out there always ready to grind. And he got ground up in it.
-
Becoming Quotes
There is a general and growing sense in the region that we are becoming the dumping ground for things that the coastal regions don't want. I don't think that there's any requirement or inherent obligation that the valley take waste products from other regions. Every region should have to take care of its own waste, and exporting it to a region that is poor is inherently unfair.
-
Alone Quotes
The purpose of the documentary was to reach out to people who didn't really know what happened at Ground Zero, who don't really understand why so many workers are sick. It's the first time that this issue of Ground Zero pollution and health impacts has been the focus of a documentary on national television, that alone is a cause for concern because people should have known about it before. What happened here could happen somewhere else.
-
Band Quotes
We're officially on hiatus, maybe even officially over. It's kind of up in the air. No one said, 'We're done as a band.' Everyone's just doing their own thing, and (some members) don't have time for this band anymore. I haven't quit, but I've also decided to stop thinking about Limp. I'm not going to keep trying to breathe life into a dying animal. It just ground to a halt.
-
Amount Quotes
We think comets make up a huge amount of stuff out in the solar system. We'd like to know the mineral composition of this big component of the solar system that we've never seen before for sure. Various particles have been measured that have been inferred to be from comets, but nobody's sure. This would finally provide some ground truth.
-
Barely Quotes
What we have found once we've gotten up into the summit region...the driving has gotten very, very good. The ground is hard here. There is not a lot of fine-grain stuff around. What there is piled up in drifts. This is because the summit region is exposed to the wind; it's very windy. In some parts of the summit region, we barely leave tracks.
-
Behind Quotes
He's a gutsy little horse. Once he takes the lead, he's tough. He won't let horses go by that easy. He's really game. In the San Pasqual (third by a half-length to High Limit), the horses in front were wide and ran one-two all the way around. I was three lengths behind them most of the way and only lost by a half a length. I made up ground and thought I was going to get there.
-
Ball Quotes
Going in right there, you got first and second, nobody out and one of the better hitters in the game. My main focus was getting strike one. It's key to get strike one. Get the fastball in on his hands and kind of open up away. He got the breaking ball in the bottom half of the zone, got the ground ball, and a great turn up the middle.
-
Building Quotes
Going back to the early '90s, the mill ground 90 percent durum and 10 percent hard red spring wheat. Now, we grind 90 percent spring wheat and 10 percent durum. There's been a lot of consolidation in the pasta industry, with the big plants building their own mills, so the market pretty much went away for mills such as ours. Now, we package some durum for smaller, specialty-type pasta manufacturers.

Concerned Quotes
He's just very deceiving. He just covers a lot of ground with ease. I got to the three-eighths pole, and I even got a little concerned because he was so relaxed. I wasn't sure if he was going to fire, but I didn't want to test him that early. As soon as I got to the top of the stretch I shook him up and got an immediate response. In the stretch, once I knew he wasn't going to get beat, I put my hands down and he eased himself up. He's a real smart horse and he's got a great attitude.
