We're really emphasizing team play and team effort, which is what is going to give us any chance to beat some of the good teams left on our schedule.

We're not great with sending flowers. We wanted to do something to remember her by. She really enjoyed Lincoln's Tomb. We talked with Nan, and she suggested this seat, an L-shaped bench with flower containers near a spot where people tend to stand and take pictures - quiet, shady - a nice place for a bench.

We had no reported damage to the Office of Emergency Management, and no damage was observed during our survey of the county.

If we get some good rain over the weekend, it's going to help a lot. If it stays hot and dry, it's going to stay awhile.

Because of the brutality in this case, because public information would help this investigation.

I don't think she has ever stopped feeling indebted to people who helped her out when she needed help. That sense of responsibility to others was absolutely overwhelming in her as a guiding principle. It was always: I need to measure up to the confidence placed in me.

I don't think it will help the private recreational fleet. But we're better off standing together as fishermen.

If the documents from Mr. Anderson were given to the university in order to write papers and do studies that would become public and possibly to display or create a book on some of these documents, then those documents are no longer intended to be protected by a privilege.

When he spoke, the room was quiet. It was very moving.

I also worked as a lobbyist, Mr. Reed. My job was working as a lobbyist for poor people, consumers, the mentally ill and disabled.

There are so many parts of this project that are intertwined that they have to be staged and set up in a particular order, and they would like to get this particular ramp done first so other ramps can follow.

Kersten is having a fine tournament. She's getting good looks at the basket and making her shots.

I think the likelihood is that Harriet will be in the mold of Sandra Day O'Connor, something of a swing voter. She'd be far more in that mold than a conservative ideologue.

Our kids played hard. We're going to get ready for districts.

I think if you look at this tournament, you can see where we played well, and it was a big confidence boost for us. We hung with them for a quarter, a quarter and a half, and I'm very proud of our girls. It was a great atmosphere, and we're fortunate that Dr. (Lawrence) Wyllie allows us to have a boys-girls tournament like this.

I'm sick and tired of you people stirring things up against George W. Bush the minute he does something you don't completely agree with, when he has just given you 20 things you do agree with.

We can build all these freeways in Phoenix, but these little projects mean a lot to the communities. These paths are being used, and that's the important thing about it.

We said 'Sprint back,' but we're not used to that. They get it, they throw it and they know somebody is there. And, boy, Sam just makes things happen for them, whether it's to the post or hitting jumpers. They play very well together and when they find the open girl, she also gets the assist.

We didn't go in whining and crying; we went in with some proposals on how to fix it. They seemed attentive and listening, and wanting to find out what the problems were so they could fix them.

This was a big win to come from behind like we did. Hopefully we can keep things going after two wins in the tournament.

We want to ensure that it is a quality-type development and a comprehensive development that doesn't happen in a piecemeal fashion.

There's nothing budgeted for a fire class and there's no plans of having a fire class. You're asking me whether I know what the city is thinking or not. I'm going to have to say if they're not planning on putting a class on, there's a lack of foresight, a lack of planning on their part.

I've been saying for years that we need someone with some kind of background here. John Mullins was from here and went through school here. Steve Castleberry went through school here. You have just got to know the makeup of the community and how to build it and you've got to want to come back and he wanted to come back.

This is back when I was a kid.

Every now and then I'll have kind of a close call where I have to step back or have to yell at a car where they're coming right at me. It doesn't happen often, but it happens frequently enough that I never 'don't' look when I cross at a crosswalk.

They've now got the proper permits and have gotten things cleaned up. All the conditions were met, and we gave them an OK.

The farther down it flows, the more its going to get diluted and the less harm it will do.

In the past when we have had objections (to rezoning requests), we have gone back to the comp plan.

By doing this, it would have an impact on the total financial picture spent annually in intercollegiate athletics.

(Holy Ground) is the only one that we advertise. We do have to have a backup plan, and that's what we're working on.
