Open Quotations | Page 7

Woodland High has always been an open campus, but next fall it will begin to close. Ninth-graders and 10th-graders will not have that freedom (to leave at lunch).

(Wood) has a knack for making plays and getting open and running good routes. He has great hands.

We're still in this new digital era where the entertainment industry wants to protect ... their content, without due consideration of the consumer's right to use that content in a fair way. We need to have an open discussion as to where we should draw the line.

We're staying open to suggestion. The people will tell us what they want.

We're staying on people. If you take a bad shot, we're going to get on you. Everyone is playing their role better. We're going to pass up the open shot to get the wide open shot.

We're seeing more and more people online longer, ... Our users are on average keeping their buddy list open for seven hours per day and are sending more and more messages per day. Enterprise market readiness is increasing.

We're running out of open dates in football.

We're riding them hard, but I think they're competitors and fighters, and they'll strive to do better, ... I'm not going to fire them and open up a new can of tackles. Because we haven't got a new can of tackles.

We're looking for alternatives to make the program better. We want to make it clear to everybody that this is where we're at and be open and up front about it.

We've got major street blockage. There's buildings down. We've got boats in buildings and all the traffic signals are gone, ... We've got buildings wide open all throughout the city.

We've won a ton of championships, sent a handful of kids to Olympic trials and a bunch of kids to the U.S. Open meet every year. This year should not be an exception.

We have security stationed in front of the student areas, and we're telling them, Look, guys, here's the plan. We've got to get the visiting team out of here. We know you're going to rush the floor, but here's the path that we want to take to go onto the floor. We're going to open it up to you and just funnel you down this way.

We have scraped together the $9,500 to keep the doors open until March 31. We need a miracle to save our domestic violence program, and in turn, save women and children.

We have to give a better showing than that, ... I'm not worried about the offense. We know we can score. Give them credit, they hit some open shots, but we have to do a better job of getting a team out of their comfort zone, stopping their runs early. I know we were missing some guys and we're still trying to find ourselves but we have to play better than that.

We have to get the point across that we are still open for business. Devil's Slide affects locals more than visitors. (Highway) 92 is still open, and you can access Half Moon Bay regularly. Unless you're coming to Half Moon Bay during the commute, there should be no problem.

We have no problem with the audit. Our books are open to everyone.

We have no fear we won't have enough snow to stay open through Memorial Day Weekend, and there's always the possibility we'll open for the Fourth of July. Right now the possibilities are endless.

We have nine venues that are active for us and the way it seems to work is that the Open comes to St Andrews about every five years and to each of the others about every 10.

What these open government laws do is break down that wall of government secrecy so that everybody knows what's going on. A democracy can only function if we have information. You can only have oversight of government if you have information.

Whenever you come back from an injury like that, it takes time to get your rhythm back. The only thing I tell Caron is, 'Keep taking open shots. Don't turn down shots.' Sometimes he has a tendency to do that, to put his head down. I hate when he does that. He needs to keep shooting.

Whenever we needed a lift, Rosie gave us a spark. She's tough inside and has the ability to handle the ball in the open floor. She's also able to hold the other team's best player in check.

Whenever we had an open look for a 3-pointer, we knocked it down. Whenever we had a possession in the second half, we tried to cut into their lead. We did a good job coming back.

When you run at him or you double him, he's a team player. He does a great job of looking for open teammates.

When he gets the opportunity to be in the open court, he's so good with the ball. He makes good plays by either scoring or kicking it out to other people.

When he gets open looks, he can burn it.

We want people to come forward with different ideas. We are learning from procurements past that if you go out with a wholly prescriptive vision of what you want, very often you end with a product that isn't as good and costs more. You have to be open to innovation.

We want it to stay the way it is, natural. We want it to be open to the public.

We want it (the fire) far enough out and in an open spot.

We want him to want the puck, to skate with the puck and find people open with the puck. Hopefully, he can do it. He's shown flashes where he takes off and goes, and sometimes he backs off and becomes conservative.

We wanted to use our speed and really pressure the ball and get into the passing lanes. We didn't want to give them any open looks. They can shoot the ball with the best of them if you let them.

We wanted to throw it around a little more because we have to open up this offense some. And in order to run the ball like we want you have to throw it. We want to get a balance where we can move the ball either running it or passing it.

We were always looking for the open player. Sometimes we took a shot too soon.

We were a lot stronger underneath this time and had the size advantage. We also were more patient and kept swinging the ball until we had an open look and then finished strong.

We were trying to get someone to drive in and if he could look for someone to take an open shot.

We were trying to get guys open in front of the net and it just didn't happen. We didn't generate anything there. When you get a chance like that, you have to create havoc and make something happen.

We were trying to get an open shot and it was a panic situation, but I thought it was the best look I had. I honestly thought it was going to go in, but it didn't.

We want to tell people that we plan to focus on doing a good job on the west side of Broadway. If the community agrees that we should focus west of Broadway it will certainly help. If they don't, we're certainly open to any other ideas.

We want to see the airport remain open to commercial service. We view this deadline (Tuesday) ... as a deadline after which we will re-evaluate where the airport stands.

We were in a very cluttered space and had an opportunity to reflect who we were as a company. We wanted a very clean look with a lot of open space and light.

We were in an open field waiting for the arrival of an official, ... We discussed everything, we interrupted each other and said, 'That thing must be changed and that one's intolerable ... everything's intolerable.'

We were hovering near the bottom and it was nice to rebound and get some big ones. We needed to get more pucks to the net instead of making that one extra pass. Establish a shot first and that will open things up.

We'll be fine once we get some of our stuff open this year.

We'll be a lot more wide open offensively. We can line up and run a power game if we want to and also use the finesse game if they stack up against the run.

We are also pleased to confirm that last year's acquisition by Berkshire Hathaway has helped us attain the industry's highest financial rating, allowed us to expand our underwriting appetite to additional practice specialties that meet our underwriting criteria, and provided us with the capital to open the door for even more Texas health care providers who desire the strongest carrier.

We are also moving forward with our plans to lease eight branch sites in Hillsborough, Pasco, Polk, Pinellas and Manatee counties, marking our entrance into Hillsborough, Pasco and Polk counties and increasing our presence in Pinellas and Manatee counties. These eight new locations, which we expect to open in 2006, will bring Coast's branch total to 20 offices in the greater Tampa Bay area. While these new locations will temporarily decrease short- term profitability, they should provide solid contributions to earnings in future periods.

We are also encouraged because they are continuing to resolve open claims in less than 60 days. We do not like to see the total number go up, so we are going to continue to aggressively monitor their performance, work with them to make sure claims are resolved and that they get these people taken care of.

Therefore, China will proceed along the path of peaceful development to achieve a peaceful, open and cooperative development,

We actually get more people out here by appointment than during our open hours.

We always have a take that's 'one for fun', so once you've got what you need, you can do what you like. Something does occasionally pop out of that tree. I'm always open to ideas.

We always have a Plan B, and we're working on a C and D. We are confident we're going to find someone. All the ingredients are here. It's just a matter of what lucky group will open the store.

This was a strange day, but overall it was OK. All other things being equal, we should open higher tomorrow.

We want the company to come into our county and provide the best level of service at the lowest cost. We're keeping it totally open to hear what our options are. If you insist on free you eliminate hearing all your options.

We are here, and we are here to stay, ... I declare this mission open for business.

We did have champagne in Pittsburgh that we were going to break open, not for a champagne party but for a toast, ... We were going to have a champagne toast to put losing seasons behind us and look at the winning seasons ahead of us. We didn't pop it open because we didn't win another game.

We did get in a flow in the second half and that allowed us to get up and down the floor. I think we're a pretty good team when we get in the open court.

We did break down a few times. Our man wasn't giving up many shots, but we had a few players get in foul trouble, so we switched to zone and they were able to find open shots.

We desperately need to let the world know we're alive and that we're open for business. We hope people see the devastation when they come, to better understand what we've been through.

We deserved that one. We hit three posts and missed two open nets. ... It didn't seem like it was meant to be tonight.

What we're doing is making the connection to the kids (about) what it means to be a contributing citizen. That leaves a door open for communication.

There are plenty of people who'd be better suited to that open seat than someone who was a lawyer, a mergers-and- acquisitions specialist and an NEC adviser.

The open day is partly to promote the red light district but also to help change the image of the area because we think it is too negative.

The open date is a tremendous advantage. They'll be more rested. They'll be a fresher football team. They'll probably have a better plan than they would have had with a week's notice.

The Open AIM program will provide online businesses, Web sites and third-party developers everywhere with direct access to one of the largest and most active online communities in the world.

Together, we will usher in a new era in real time communications services, offering consumers increased choice and making it easier than ever to connect and communicate online.

The open 70 percent could go A-1 (agriculture) or it could be a golf course, race track or nothing at all. The biggest conflict to farming is houses.

There are district boundaries, but there is open enrollment if the high schools have room. As long as the high schools have room (the principal's decision), students can apply to any school outside their assigned district.

We're playing good defense right now. But, the main thing is that we've been shooting the ball a lot better than we had been. The last two games I think we hit 15 threes (and) that helps loosen things up inside. We have to have an inside presence in order to get open shots outside against Sioux Falls.

We've been in a shooting slump, honestly. ... Tonight we settled in and shot our open looks. And you know what? If we shoot 53 percent (from 3-point range), we can beat anybody.

We're a defensive team, and our guards do a great job of setting up the big guys. Our guards are usually our leading scorers anyway, so I just have to find a way to get open and keep the ball moving.

We're a better offensive team than we were the other night. We turned down some open shots, so we need to be aggressive. Being aggressive is taking an open shot.

We ran our offense to get open shots and it finally paid off. I wanted the girls to recover from those two losses as a team, and I think we showed we can play team basketball.

We ran our flex offense. Curtis came off a down screen and was open from 15 feet. And it was good all the way.

We ran a sideline play to get an open shot. It didn't happen.

We ran a screen and roll and it was open all night for the drive so we were hoping it would open up the 3. Tim got it to me, I had a little trouble handling it, but once I let it go, I knew it was on line.

We ran a pick-and-roll off the top and I am running the baseline and I just got an open shot and I just shot it. That play is really tough to guard if you don't know what's coming.

We're a team. Everyone takes open shots, everyone steps up and everyone works together. That's what makes us so good.

We're at 50 percent complete. We're on time. We're on schedule. We expect to open this in March of 2007.

We're asked by our company to form relationships with elected officials, so that they know who Emerson is and so that we have some open doors and people to communicate with on key concerns.

We're a school with 1000 kids. We aren't a private school, we aren't a huge school with open enrollment. And then I see these rankings...I'm not sure how we can even be ranked.

We're an open company and support many databases.

We're an educational institution and the best thing we could do is try to open our doors to students.

We're always talking about culture, so let's start at the beginning. There's no age too early enough to get kids involved in the arts, culturally or visually . . . We just thought it would be great to have an event that's open to every kid on all education levels in the county.

We're always open to working with other writers, producers, and contributors for channelAPA. In hindsight, the goal is to develop our content and connect with people who have similar visions as we do.

We're always open to listen. We have yet to receive anything formally requesting studies or information about any of the properties.

We're always open to accepting a donation to adding vehicles.

We're always open at looking at ways to make health insurance more affordable for small business owners. But the governor has long been on the record as being against any kind of tax increase unless there is a corresponding tax decrease.

We hope to open soon, maybe as early as the second week of February.
