People like her because she's like a breath of fresh air. Because in the fifth book it gets so dark and Harry's always cross and then every time Luna comes in all the tension goes and she makes you laugh because she's so funny and really honest.

They're a tough team with three defending county champs and another two who are ranked. They wrestle all year all over the county. We were more mentally prepared today.

We hope to get others involved, including veterans. This is my fifth term on the board and tax relief has always been an issue we've heard about.

I just don't want to go off in a tangent in one direction without being completely clear that it will pay off for all the kids.

We've sort of came from nowhere this year. We were picked fifth in our conference (Olympic) and no one expected a lot out of us. We've had our seniors really step up and as far as the 14 individuals on our team, they've all contributed in some way.

We have Rod Smith and Ashley Lelie and beyond that there are some question marks for the third, fourth and fifth spots, ... The obvious ones are Darius Watts and we all know what he can do and Jerry Rice, who we know what he's done throughout his career.

We need to narrow that gap between our fourth and fifth runner, and having said that, I think the kids gave 100 percent on an unbelievably tough course. This is almost a ridiculously hard course, one of the toughest courses we'll see all year. We really ran pretty well, and the runners gave in everything they had and left it all out there.

The pitching was very good for both sides. We made one terrible mistake in the fifth inning and a guy hit one out and that was the difference in the game as far as I'm concerned.

She was the fifth player I've had clear 1,000 points. But most of the others were doing it in their senior years.

She's on track to have a really good career as a shot putter. She should be able to make the finals, and fifth or sixth place is not out of the question for her.

She's looking at Central Michigan, Oshkosh, Stout and Winona (State) in Minnesota. I'm very confident she'll be able to play college basketball. She's every kind of player a coach likes. She's a great everyday player. She sets a good example for the rest of the kids. I've been enjoying being her coach since fifth grade.

Somebody is going to have to break away sooner or later, but anybody can throw anybody off here, and that's been the case over the years, but now they're not playing favorites. They're mowing me off, they're mowing John (Force) off, Robert (Hight) got sawed off the first round of Sonoma. You don't know whose going to do it; who's holding the loaded gun. Nobody can break away and get the clean air and get away from everybody. It could still happen, but right now one through four is right there, and even fifth place is right there. With six races left, the whole idea is if somebody jumps up with three in a row, now we're the ones chasing the rabbit ... There's no dominating anywhere.

Somebody asked me who I'd be pulling for. I'll just have to take the Fifth on that one. I'll be pulling for both of them. I hope both of them go over 100 yards.

She fell on her bar routine, and to still finish fifth means she has room to move up. If she hits on everything in the floor, she will be fine.

MOLECULE, n. The ultimate, indivisible unit of matter. It is distinguished from the corpuscle, also the ultimate, indivisible unit of matter, by a closer resemblance to the atom, also the ultimate, indivisible unit of matter. Three great scientific theories of the structure of the universe are the molecular, the corpuscular and the atomic. A fourth affirms, with Haeckel, the condensation of precipitation of matter from ether --whose existence is proved by the condensation of precipitation. The present trend of scientific thought is toward the theory of ions. The ion differs from the molecule, the corpuscle and the atom in that it is an ion. A fifth theory is held by idiots, but it is doubtful if they know any more about the matter than the others.

Maybe we can slip him in as the fifth starter.
