Believe Quotes
I am excited to be part of the Forest City/Harrah's team. I've lived and played in this community for years and I believe these two companies bring the expertise and strengths that Pittsburgh needs to make gaming successful. This partnership will help Pittsburgh and our communities continue to grow and improve. If the gaming commission selects Forest City and Harrah's, I am honored to be the President of the foundation and serve our City.

Advisory Quotes
I am honored to have been elected to the Advisory Commission of the National Commission on Teaching and America's Future. I am looking forward to sharing ideas and best practices with such an exceptional group of innovators in education and will continue working to improve public education.

Bar Quotes
I believe this provision of the bill does not set the bar high enough for PSC commissioners, who should be held to the highest ethical standards, ... I strongly encourage the members of the Public Service Commission -- who I know share in this belief -- to move forward with efforts to amend their code of ethics . . . to ensure that this provision of the bill is not misused.

Believe Quotes
I believe they never really let it drop. At the time that my husband went to the commission meeting they told him that they appreciated him coming and thanked him for bringing the petition, but said the annexation would continue to move forward for the good of the citizens of Spring Hill.
-
Account Quotes
I am very disappointed that the commission failed to take into account the amount of information that we provided them and the quality, experience and expertise of the Air National Guard personnel who have served our country in Ohio and in many combat operations. They have flown thousands of C-130 combat hours for Operation Iraqi Freedom and Operation Enduring Freedom and have received hundreds of Air Medals. They are truly American heroes, and the commission made the wrong decision.

Few Quotes
If a commission comes in for tuba and gorilla, she'll write a piece for tuba and gorilla, and it'll come out sounding like her. I think the humor in her music is ... like her thumbprint. And I would have to say that extends into her life away from music as well. I think it would be impossible for her to remain somber for more than a few minutes at a stretch.

Census Quotes
Given what happened to the Central Coast, it's hard to support the current system, but since the last census 3.6 million people have been added. And to turn over the most diverse state in the union to a panel of retired judges, which is a very undiverse group ... I'd support an independent commission, or an independent commission with legislative review, or some other kind of hybrid.
-
Against Quotes
If some people think this is a bad deal, they may go down to the Public Service Commission at the time it is to be renewed. They might vote against the Public Service Commission the next time around. They may think it is a good thing. They may not care. It is their right to know. That is what is at stake here.

Address Quotes
What we have are basically individuals, whether it be an installer or a contractor, installing illegal systems in the county and not going through the process, which includes contacting our agency for a permit, letting our inspectors assist them and then actually inspecting the sewage system to make sure it works properly, ... We are trying to come up with some options to address what we can do about that, and we want the public's input. We want to invite installers, Realtors, lending institutions, the commission and the prosecuting attorney's office to give us input on that. Right now, if we have a violator, all we are able to do is turn that over to the prosecuting attorney's office.

Agreement Quotes
I think it is important that when a commission established under an agreement which has its remit in legislation (in both the Irish and UK governments) that when the head of that commission witnesses an event in which IRA weapons were put beyond use in accordance with this agreement...that it is up to the governments to validate it and uphold it.

Agent Quotes
I was an Army intelligence agent and a veteran during the Cold War, assigned to West Germany. I was the chairman of the National Commission on Homeland Security and Terrorism for the United States for five years. I was a person who has dealt extensively with these homeland security issues. I was a governor during the 9/11 attack.
-
Absolutely Quotes
It is one I deeply regret. I dealt with this issue in October 2003, fully and completely. Everything that I have done all along in this process has been for the purpose of aiding and supporting the work of the 9/11 commission and any suggestion to the contrary is simply, absolutely wrong.

Accepted Quotes
Jim had to go on the dole, but he didn't wear the pain on his sleeve. He accepted it and kept trying to do the best he could for his family. The Great Depression is a character, and I think the villain in this piece is poverty. If there's a single moment in Braddock's life that I think makes him important in history, it's the fact that he went to the Social Security Commission and repaid the money he'd taken when he was on the dole. That shows you more about his character than anything in his boxing career.
