Mary Anderson

What makes Maria so tough is the way she plays, the way she competes. The best part about Maria is her focus.

That's when her focus can look very unattractive.

Rob Silverstein

We've always been huge fans of Maria and believe she has the skills, attitude and style that fits 'Access Hollywood' perfectly. She's current, a unique talent, someone that cuts through, and definitely stands out in a crowd.

I was a bit odd as a kid, because there were so little outlets for me. There was no theatre except for the odd community theatre and school shows.

We bought some shares recently in a dot.com company that was absolutely annihilated after this recent rout, About.com ( BOUT : Research , Estimates ), which is the ninth-largest Web property of all Web properties. The stock dropped from 100 in late March, to a low of $21. This is a company with a real business model that had blowout first-quarter earnings. And they are actually going to turn a profit in 2001. Investors went from 'everything Internet is good', to the 'everything Internet is bad' mantra. So now you've got to do your homework and look at individual names and identify the business models that are valid. And I think this is one that can go back to its old high.

When we were thinking this through, the emphasis was on what solutions we could enable that would allow us to provide our customers with greater convenience and greater comfort when they?re shopping our stores.

Charles Fuller

We're so excited to serve customers here in Fayetteville and the surrounding communities, ... With the store's updated design, great merchandise assortment, services and our remarkable team of associates, we will be able to provide an outstanding and even more convenient shopping experience for our customers. We're inviting everyone to come and celebrate with us.

Cameron Mathison

Just as soaps were very pivotal in the transition from radio to television, they will be right in the thick of things again in the transition from television to the Internet. Exciting news.

Justin Timberlake

The only thing that I travel with is an Ole Henriksen facial cleanser, something that my skin is used to avoid using different soaps at different hotels all the time, and Givenchy Man Pro-Energizing Massive Moisturizer. I usually keep my hair pretty short, too, so I don't require a lot of stuff.

Margot Robbie

It irritates me so much the way people talk about soaps because it is far more difficult working on a soap than it is on a big studio film.

Johnathan Frakes

I think the problem with the soaps is that because they make 280 shows a year, the writing suffers.

I think 'Y&R's future is contingent upon the ratings. Obviously, none of the soaps are kept alive for the sake of loyalty. It's all about ratings. It's show business. Period.

Niecy Nash

As a little girl, my destiny was stamped onto the canvas of my imagination at 5 years old. I was watching soaps with my grandmother... The most gorgeous black women I had ever seen in my life came out, and I knew that that is what I wanted to do - be fabulous and black and on TV.
