When we engraved the 442 names on the back of the medals - that's when the reality sinks in. Everybody in the whole plant had to be involved to check the names and match the medals with the cases.

The persistent, toxic chemicals we identified in this study are important, heavily used industrial substances, some of which are produced in quantities up to 500 million pounds a year.

Instead of curbing reports on the most worrisome pollutants to please industry, the Bush Administration should be expanding the tracking system to inform and protect the public.

Mike Vrabel

When we went to a 4-3, it gave them some problems. We're going to make changes every week -- between series and on the fly.

We expect even more cars on the grid when we start the season.

Terry Lickona

We've always known there was a reason to keep all these original masters. We've never erased a single tape from any show we've ever done.

Gerry Fleming

We're getting too cute, too fancy (with passes). That's what happens when you got new guys coming into the lineup that are skilled players playing with guys who are skilled players.

Bruce Kasman

What we're seeing in the report is clear signs that manufacturing has turned. And I think it's turned pretty sharply.

Brad Shaw

What they've done for us lately is when we've had a couple of shifts where we haven't done things well and lost momentum, they've been a great line to regain that momentum or at least get it turned around. You know what you're going to get for the most part every shift.

Chloe Grace Moretz

I love going to Topshop, Urban Outfitters and American Apparel, I'm in love with their jackets.

Anthony Dragona

We've always worked cooperatively with the department, and we're only asking for cost of living increases.
