Becky Carlson

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.

But that's what we do - what we manufacture generally has a higher degree of meaning to those that receive it. It's not just any award.

Larry Flowers

Jim Hayes

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.

Clint Hurdle

We're going to give him a little more time to work his way out of it. He's an important part of the lineup without Todd. . . . He's not trying to pull everything. He's conscious of going to the right side. When he gets hot, he can do major damage.

Harri Holkeri

When I was involved in Finnish domestic problems, I used to bring people together and make them work together instead of fighting against each other.

Bill Cowher

I'll refrain from making any more comments on any ongoing people involved in the judicial process.

John Cornyn

Throughout his years on the nation's high court, Chief Justice Rehnquist stood as a beacon of judicial restraint and reverence for the Constitution and the institution of the Supreme Court.

Thomas Donohue

Throughout his career he has shown a great deal of integrity and a reasoned judicial temperament that would serve our country well.

What he's doing here is frankly astonishing. This kind of coordination is obviously an attempt to get around legal contribution limits. The bottom line is that public policy is being made not by principle, but by payment up front.

Tom Jackson

What he said to me was that it's the right thing to do. It might be legally gray, but it's the right thing to do.

James Loney

When we were released I was sure I could jump right back into ordinary life and that's what I wanted the most, but I'm afraid no such luck. When I can get through an ordinary day without shaking legs and a pounding heart, I think that will be a sign that I can start to tell my story.

Tino Reyes

When we were getting pretty close to signing him, he called us from one of his maneuvers. I asked him, 'Where are you guys?' He said, 'Up north.' I said, 'Where up north?' He said, 'The Arctic Circle.' That was different. He e-mailed us a picture from there. He had his parka off.

Andrea Navedo

Wayne Huizenga

We're going to take a pretty tough position on that this year. These guys, in general, they're all making a lot of money. It doesn't do us any good to pick somebody and then not have them get to camp. That's going to be very important to us. I personally am going to insist that that person we sign has got to be in camp to start.

Eric Thurston

When we were there at the beginning of the year, they handed it to us pretty good. We have to make sure we come out, play well and play smart. We have to be very strong in our own end. Defensive zone coverage is going to be key.

James Loney

When we were released I was sure I could jump right back into ordinary life and that's what I wanted the most, but I'm afraid no such luck. When I can get through an ordinary day without shaking legs and a pounding heart, I think that will be a sign that I can start to tell my story.

Cedric Redmond

When we were going into the locker room at halftime, we heard some fans saying that we're going to fall apart in the second half. We wanted to make sure that didn't happen.

When we were down by 19 I'm sure people left to go watch the other game. It came down to earning some respect. We decided to go out and leave everything on the floor. I think the kids earned that respect with their effort.

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.

Gary McClure

You don't like anybody to beat you too much. I don't have a long memory. And as an athlete, you can't have too long of a memory. You've got to move on. I can sure remember last year though, because we played two of our worst games against them. ... But it's good to bounce back and get a win tonight. It's good to beat a good club." ()

Brian Billick

We've always talked about the pressure from the outside and contrasting that with Terrell Suggs . If that's a nickel role, you're talking 15-25 snaps. He's capable of doing more, but we have a lot of assets here to balance that out. If we can use him more, we will.

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.

Kelly Leonard

When we were talking to them about the marketing, I said traditional theater marketing never works for us. We need college students, we need young people who wouldn't necessarily go to Denver Center. We get a lot of people at Second City who don't know they're coming to an Actors' Equity theater. A lot of marketing we're doing is promoting Red Scare without the Second City name or the Denver Center name.

Ray Preston

When we were talking to him, he didn't want to commit to how long. So I said, 'Try a year and see how it works out.' Fortunately he's been there since.

Fran Townsend

When we were preparing the president's speech we had originally picked a different plot to try and declassify to talk about.

Holly Johnson

When we were practicing for Italy that was one of my main things I talked to Coach Sue and Coach (Cori) Close about - how do I bring that leadership in that two spot? I think it's still coming up and being encouraging and still being positive and energetic.

Sharon Hess

When we went to talk to those families, we found out that one of the families was originally from Herrin, so we were able to quickly place them in one of our vacant homes in Herrin. Our agency covers 24 counties, and if we don't have a house available, we can still help a family by making referrals.

Rev. Donaldson

When we went through it, we had nowhere to turn, no one to talk to who had a similar experience. Small, rural churches usually have no money and little or no insurance to rebuild. So we helped form an organization that gives guidance to pastors whose churches have burned.

Tom Kehoe

Working with the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission , we have issued a voluntary recall for the defective notebook batteries.

Todd Sloan

We are proud to be a part of the team of industry leaders brought together to showcase Hydrogen technology for these TUG airport ground support vehicles. With millions of dollars of funding available through the Voluntary Airport Low Emission (VALE) program to poor air quality 'non-attainment' airports throughout the United States, projects like this where the end product has near zero emissions, will prove to be a popular choice.

Ann Fisher

When you test a newborn, you're only testing for the mother's antibodies. This makes a mockery of the whole notion of voluntary testing for pregnant women.

Nick Harkaway

With true free speech has to come an understanding of when and when not to use it. But you can't legislate that. It must be voluntary - especially in a world where a whisper can reach a million people in an eye blink.

James E. Faust

We make no greater voluntary choice in this life than the selection of a marriage partner. This decision can bring eternal happiness and joy. To find sublime fulfillment in marriage, both partners need to be fully committed to the marriage.

Charles Eastman

The clan is nothing more than a larger family, with its patriarchal chief as the natural head, and the union of several clans by intermarriage and voluntary connection constitutes the tribe.

Karen Traviss

Whether I build a character from the ground up or develop one, whether within my own copyright or in licensed work, I can step into that character's mind. It takes a kind of voluntary dissociation akin to method acting, military planning, marketing, or detective work: to think like the other guy and work out what he's going to do next.

Robert Hayes

Nearly 20 million of the 21 million people already had drug coverage. The voluntary enrollment rate compares miserably with the rate achieved in the 11-month period when Medicare was originally launched in 1966. Nearly all eligible Americans signed up for the program back then.

John McDonough

One of the lessons we learned from other states, such as Maine, is that voluntary doesn't get you where you want to go. If you really want to achieve a dramatic breakthrough in expansion of coverage, you have to be willing to take the political heat and political risk.
