Scott Walker

We've always had the rallying cry of, 'Hey, nobody out there thinks we can do it,' and that was fun. We've never really had a star player, and there's never really been a case of 'So-and-so didn't produce and that's why we're losing.' So it might take a little adjustment, but I think we're definitely a lot better team with him.

When we were really struggling, you didn't see guys get two hits in a game. Any time someone got one hit, one walk -- nobody could put it together.

Mitchell Hurwitz

When we were making 'Arrested Development,' it was the hardest thing I'd ever done. You know, nobody was watching. We weren't getting feedback. The job wasn't paying very well.

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.

Jim Owen

Mark Hunter

Until recently scientists measured changes in plant growth with simple tools rather like a ruler, ... Now you can essentially watch plant genes turn on and off. This gives us a much better idea of how the plant is responding to the insect's damage.

Wikipedia works because those who know the truth are usually more numerous and committed than those who believe in a falsehood.

If he could go back, choose another career, my father would have liked to have been an environmentalist of some kind, which is why he'd really like to be remembered for something almost nobody knows he did: naming Earth Day.
