When we first started the band here in LA, Janes Addiction was the band we looked up to. They came out at a time when there was a lot of glam rock and hair bands and they got put into that category, but they stood out because they were doing their own thing. We were kind of caught in the same kind of situation at another time: there were a lot of new-metal bands and wed get put into that category even though we didnt fit. Its funny that now theres bands like Mars Volta doing this prog-rock thing thats kinda getting popular, people put us in that genre now. That may be closer to the truth, but I think Hypnotized is going to go further in terms of getting people to understand what were doing.

Al Roberts

What he modeled was decency. He'd always ask me questions. 'How are you doing? What were my goals? Did I get my master's?' More is taught than caught and that's Bob Gary to me.

Tim Saunders

We've asked Matt to do some new things to help us get a couple more athletic bodies into the lineup,and he's more than held his own in left field. Most catchers don't run very well and couldn't make the switch to the outfield, but Matt dominates with his quickness when he's playing hockey, and I think that's helped him make the transition.

Sheryl Crow

When we were rumored to have split, and when our publicists called these magazines to say we haven't split, the magazines were all so disappointed because that's really what's selling, rooting for a couple and then they split. That's what sells the magazines.

Jason O'Mara

When I was on 'Terra Nova', I had an Australian iPhone and a U.S. iPhone, different time zones, just a couple differences in the machines, but I was able to keep the international aspect of things in order. But I lost my U.S. iPhone right before I left Australia. Somebody's got it somewhere out there. Send it back?

Ricky Williams

When I was in middle school, the librarian there was secretary for a couple of groups of professional writers.

Jillian Rose Reed

When I was in high school, I had already kind of been working in the industry and had done a couple of acting jobs. There were definitely some girls that were either jealous or thought I was a snob. I was just trying to be a teenage girl and go to high school and have fun like everybody else!

Paul Gray

When it became obvious that they were one of the teams that we could be playing (in the regional) we made sure to scout a couple of their games. Jared Wood is a solid player. He shoots it well and he gets to the basket. Keegan is real active and is real solid around the basket. And their guard (Freeman) does a nice job of running the team.

Billy Mayfair

You don't know what you're going to get, but we got a nice day. Monday, it was blowing 30-40 mph here. You get one of those days in the next couple days, and the guys playing here are going to be at a big disadvantage.

Tyrone Marshall

We're more aware of each other now. Guys are looking out for each other. We're doing more things together.

Doug is still in our minds and our hearts.

Robert Hathaway

We've assured the King family we will give it our best efforts to review the case and resolve it for their family.

Martin Rees

To most people in the U.K., indeed throughout Western Europe, space exploration is primarily perceived as 'what NASA does'. This perception is - in many respects - a valid one. Superpower rivalry during the Cold War ramped up U.S. and Soviet space efforts to a scale that Western Europe had no motive to match.

Joe Browne

We're going to take into account the status of the relief and rescue efforts in Louisiana and the entire Gulf Coast and apply league policies and precedents in as much of an extent as possible. NFL teams play their games outside their home stadiums either in another NFL city or in a city in their home territory. There is no precedent for playing any games in a non-NFL city.

Allen Iverson

We're going to need team efforts and we need each other down the stretch.

Bryan Whitman

We're going to move the resources that we think can be helpful to the scene as rapidly as possible. Efforts are being led by the Russian government and it (U.S. assistance) is something that they have asked for.

Rudi Giuliani

We're going to focus our efforts on recovering as many people as we can and on removing debris, which will take at least two or three weeks,

Bob Romeo

We've averaging 61 points per game, but the thing that makes me the proudest about this team is its defense. We've held teams to an average of 31 points per game. A lot of players get to play (as a result of big leads), and that means the kids on the bench are doing a good job defensively as well.

Elliot Diringer

We've asked the OPEC nations to keep an open mind about increased oil production, and we continue to believe an increase is good for both producing and consuming nations.

Gene Johnson

We've always tried to have a good mix of stuff on our albums -- something that's fun, something that's very radio friendly, something that's going to touch someone's heart, maybe even something that's pop influenced. More than ever, on the 'Completely' album, we wanted to show more than one musical side of Diamond Rio.

John Mackey

We've always tried to be good citizens in the communities that we do business in.

Jamie Dixon

We've always thought he was a very good player and always believed in him. He just happened to play on some very good teams behind some very good players. Last year, he developed and got better. He played in a lot of big games against a lot of good people.

We've always said controllers are like runways -- it takes three to five years to make a good one,

Kyle Herring

We're going to err on the side of caution. We're going to run this thing to ground and make sure we understand it.

Ann Crowley

When we got back to the U.S., I wanted to kiss the ground after seeing what people in other countries are denied or don't have.

Matt Smith

What he does a good job of doing is throwing strikes and getting ground balls. He got a lot of ground balls today.

Boris Zhukov

We got up in the air, and Terry Gordy looks over and sees oil coming down the wing. The oil pressure drops. It turned out the mechanic left the oil cap off. Jimmy turns the thing around and got it on the ground before the engine locked up. We were lucky we didn't catch on fire.

Tim Finchem

We've always believed we're prepared to do it, ... We can handle it in short order if we need to.

Andy Reid

You don't let it be a distraction. That is not what you do. There are going to be things that happen and you don't focus on those things. You focus on getting the football team ready to play and you handle the other things up front the way we do it.

Marty DeJarnette

We're going to try and pick up (the defensive intensity) and see how they handle it. Maybe it will work, maybe it won't, but that's what we do.

David Crane

We're going to split crews up to handle the cargo. Some will go to Chicago and arrange for its export out of the country, and others will go directly to Beijing and wait for its arrival.

Ron Polk

We're going to play the game somewhere. I'll let the athletic directors handle that. I ain't gonna tell you Smith-Wills is a better ballpark than the new one, but it's been good to us over the years. They've done everything we've asked. They put in a new (playing surface), they put in new lights. I think it's been great for the people down there.

Charles Rogers

We're going to handle this professionally, not through the media, ... We disagree with their position, but I'm not disappointed in them because they have the prerogative to do this.

Kristen Perezluha

We're going to handle this investigation with the utmost integrity, as we would with any investigation.

Jeff Bower

We're going to get into a stretch where we are going to play a lot of games without time off. I think the players have handled it well. Our practices have been good. They know there's nothing anyone could've done about the games being canceled. We know we are going to play and they will be excited about playing.

David Eckstein

What they've gone through, it puts a lot of things in perspective and that perspective will help you handle the situations in that you know win or lose, life is still going to go on,

Kevin Cato

We've always felt like our defense was one of the stronger points of our game. Our goal was to have a hand in their face for the full 94 feet of the floor and that would hopefully take away some of their shooting ability.

Mallory Dietrich

When it comes down to it, it's just a time you are trying to beat, no matter whose it is. Hopefully it will stay for a few years.

You don't lose a shooting touch; it just likes to go on vacation for a little bit. I've been working in the gym on my own. I think I'm back to where I was and hopefully I can improve that a little bit more.

Joseph Altuzarra

We're making clothes - we aren't saving the world. I'm not saying that designers aren't artists, but at the end of the day, we make clothes. Hopefully we make beautiful clothes with a message, but in the end it's for people to wear. I think that the hype of fashion has come down a level.

Bob DuPuy

We remain guardedly optimistic and are looking forward to receiving a positive response to our reapplication, hopefully within a matter of days.

DeAndre Rice

We're starting to build momentum heading into the tournament. If we start playing good now, hopefully it will carry over there.

We responded. Hopefully this will carry over to the tournament.

S. Walker

We're getting the apartments furnished now. Hopefully within two weeks, we'll have everybody housed.

We've asked a lot of him being a young player. ... He's been asked to come in and play a major role in a hurry, but he's a very mature kid and he takes coaching terrifically.

Mike Pelfrey

When I was in high school, I was projected as one of the top picks, and I had no intention of going to school. But, I had a bad senior year and I fell. Looking back, if I had gone (pro) out of high school, I would not have made it. I wasn't mature enough. ... Going to college was the best thing I ever did.

Darrell Butler

We're going to tie ourselves to his wagon and let him pull us around. He's our leader and he's really matured and accepted that role.

Doug Wilson

When we drafted him, people said he was probably the most ready for the NHL. But that to me was a bonus. It wasn't something we factored into when we decided to pick him. But he obviously played against men last year and played in the World Championships for the Czech team, and the thing that impressed me when he came in this summer is that he tested like a man in his physical testing. It transfers over to his game on the ice. He's a very mature player.

Doug Wilson

When we drafted him, people said he was probably the most ready for the NHL, ... But that to me was a bonus. It wasn't something we factored into when we decided to pick him. But he obviously played against men last year and played in the World Championships for the Czech team, and the thing that impressed me when he came in this summer is that he tested like a man in his physical testing. It transfers over to his game on the ice. He's a very mature player.

Patrick Baker

When we defend well and create opportunities on offense, that's really our recipe for success. Once again we had great activity and pressure on the ball. We matured a little bit tonight, we had a greater sense of gamesmanship and clock management toward the end. We saw some good things from the whole team.

Doug Elgin

We're keeping coaches in place. Dana Altman sets the example. He understands you can accomplish just as much at Creighton as you can at Big State U. His program has been in postseason play for eight consecutive seasons. And kids in the Midwest see Valley schools playing in sold-out arenas, taking on the best teams in the nation, and getting more television exposure. It's coming together for us. We're having a bunch of programs mature at the same time.

Carolina Milanesi

Year on year sales grew in all regions as replacement sales in mature markets such as Western Europe and North America continued to drive growth while users in emerging markets joined mobile networks and acquired their first mobile device.

Matt Brown

We're hoping to attract the 25-and-up demographic with relatively well-known entertainment but it doesn't always work out that way. Upstairs, we're aiming for a more mature high-end clientele that wants a premium experience.

Larry King

We're going to point her towards that race again, and we need to get a couple races in her - this seems like a good place to start.

Kenny Troutt

When I was in high school, my uncle, who went to the races quite a bit, got me interested. Then when I went to college at Southern Illinois University, just a few hours from Louisville, we used to go to the Kentucky Derby, and I got to see Secretariat and Riva Ridge win.

Cindy Klassen

We both skated the races of our lives today.

Ed Clark

With the intensity of the first three NASCAR Craftsman Truck Series races at Atlanta Motor Speedway, fans have been treated to exciting finishes each race. Fans can expect nothing less than the same for the John Deere 200.

Bobby Jackson

We started this really for race relations, to bring people together from all races and to show that people can get along. Before the race we brought about this heritage house to promote unity.

Carol Jordan

There are common lessons for us to learn from our own UK study and from the study just released by the AAUW. First, these forms of victimization happen to far too many students: female and male, from all walks of life, and from all races and ethnicities. The second discomforting similarity is that most students who have these experiences do not tell.

Tony Pedregon

There is no one better to beat than John Force because when you beat him you beat the best, ... I've won a lot of races before, but never as a team owner. I think it's just starting to sink in. I put a lot of pressure on the guys after Indy, and for them, they worked great this weekend in the heat, under the gun, they pulled through and they got it done. I appreciate that because it proved to me that they're tough, they're strong and they're with me.

Boris Said

Until this year, I only competed in three oval point races in the Cup series, ... Racing is all about experience and I am getting there. I have now raced in nine oval races in total -- that's not a lot, but I feel we have the resources to set a realistic goal of finishing in the top 20 this weekend.

Mark Reid

With two horses that weren't doing a whole lot before he got them, to win two Breeders' Cup races with them, I think it's one of the standout performances recently.

Casey Rabach

We've always seemed to be able to overcome, and the last two weeks it just wasn't happening. It was disappointing, because we know we're better than that.

Todd Parker

We've always played hard, but as of late we seem to be executing better on offense, being more patient and getting the ball where we need to get it. Our quickness allows us to create some mismatches.

Kevin Jackson

We've always hoped that Page 2 would be a destination for people who wanted a good laugh and didn't take sports too seriously. Much of that was accomplished through parody, so it seemed natural that we'd be drawn to a product like the Onion. I think we've always had an admiration for what they do, and when we talked to the folks at the Onion, we found out that admiration was mutual.

Sean Cotter

We've always felt Heidi was a real good hitter, and she's definitely a feared hitter in the conference, but it just seemed like she just wasn't able to put it together for long stretches. And this year she's just been in a really good place, I think, both physically and mentally.

Kyle Hines

When we weren't winning, we were still working hard. It just didn't seem like we had all the pieces of the puzzle. We all believed sometime we'd click, and I'm happy it's now.

Michigan State

When we were driving over here before the game, it seemed like the Big Ten opened like the Red Sea,'' he said.

Jennifer Nettles

When we were at the CMT Awards this year, Robert Plant was there. What an icon, I love him... But I can't go up and speak to him, because I don't want to seem like a goob.

Lisa Randall

When I was in school, I liked math because all the problems had answers. Everything else seemed very subjective.

Jarvis Cocker

When I was in Pulp, I actively did more TV stuff because that was during the Great Britpop Wars, and it seemed important to prove that indie people could speak. That war doesn't exist anymore.

John Clippinger

To move online security to the next level, there has to be fundamental resolve among consumers, government and business to quickly adopt a system where the individual has more control over how information about them is managed and shared. Our aim is to construct an open and widely accessible software framework that puts the individual at the centre of the identity management universe. With this framework in place, it will be easier for society to begin the migration to more secure online environments, where trusted networks can not only be easily formed, but effectively enforced. For in the end, security is not just technological, but social.

Patrick Mason

We're going to see more software acquisitions at higher valuations. Stocks naturally will trade higher when you raise the bar.

Kent Beck

Received wisdom is that if you spend time up front getting the design right, you avoid costs later. But the longer you spend getting the design right, the more your upfront costs are, and the longer it takes for the software to start earning.

Kent Beck

Agitator and the Agitar Management Dashboard lower the barriers to accountability in software development and increase the value of developer testing.

Kent Beck

The problem is, in software design, often the consequences of your decisions don't become apparent for years.

Kent Beck

Developer testing is an important step towards accountability. It gives developers a way to demonstrate the quality of the software they produce.

Kent Beck

A rational model of software is to design it quickly - the economic pressure to improvise presents an interesting challenge.

Brad Wilson

What we're seeing is a great deal of customization on country and industry levels. When Microsoft was developing its CRM, it made sure that it was built on a Web services architecture so that it can be easily adapted to specific local needs and requirements. We don't ship an out-of-the-box, property-management application, for instance, but those in real estate using the software can easily add apartment information without adding programming code.

Roger Oberg

When we'd have arguments over who has the best basic process for development, nobody wins. Rather than controlling the basic process framework, we (at IBM) can leverage what the open-source community does. And other software vendors can do the same around our processes.
