We figured they'd come out and try to run the option on us. We knew we had to shore up our assignments on that and shut down their running game. We knew once we did that, we had a pretty good chance.

Josh Wright

All safety systems worked to successfully shut down production on the OCS (Outer Continental Shelf) platforms.

Rebecca Watson

Companies haven't assessed the damage fully and it may be that refineries stay shut for months. The European Union is moving crude and products to the U.S., but at some point it's going to have to replace that, leading to higher demand in a marketplace that is already very tight.

Bruce Evers

Our defense definitely did not play as well as we had been playing in the first half. But having another guy back there made it a lot easier, and we were able to shut them down and limit their scoring opportunities.

Matt Britner

But China lacks an inspection force that can come in and shut down operations when the conditions demand it. They'll say they close lots (of unsafe mines), but they're not really serious.

Davitt Mcateer

We're going to be able to put some runs up on the board and we're going to shut out a lot of guys. We're going to surprise a lot of people in this league.

Boof Bonser

We need reforms that will enable us to thrive in a dynamic, open, world market and not seek to shut our borders and go down a path proven to lead to reduced national wealth and overall lower standards of living.

Aaron Lukas

After we scored, they controlled the play for 10 minutes so we switched defenses and that shut them down for a while.

Buzz Garvin

Harvard Medical School is famous for asking interviewees to open a window that is nailed shut.

Peter Cappelli

We are students of words; we are shut up in schools, and colleges, and recitation rooms, for ten or fifteen years, and come out at last with a bag of wind, a memory of words, and do not know a thing.

Ralph Waldo Emerson

It suddenly struck me that that tiny pea, pretty and blue, was the Earth. I put up my thumb and shut one eye, and my thumb blotted out the planet Earth. I didn't feel like a giant. I felt very, very small.

Neil Armstrong

The impact of pollution on these clouds is sufficiently strong to completely shut off precipitation from them.

Daniel Rosenfeld

I just shut down. I stopped.

Dave Greenwald

The field was like a sandbox and Kristine couldn't get her footing on the mound. She eventually got into a rhythm and shut E.B. down for the rest of the game.

Pete Catenacci

We are students of words: we are shut up in schools, and colleges, and recitation-rooms, for ten or fifteen years, and come out at last with a bag of wind, a memory of words, and do not know a thing.

Ralph Waldo Emerson

That's the team that needs to show up every night. We talked about that in the locker room at halftime. We've worked all season for this. It's not time to shut it down, it's time to execute.

Chris Gaynor

In my experience, if you have to keep the lavatory door shut by extending your left leg, it's modern architecture.

Nancy Banks Smith

It's difficult to give one person an advantage over another because they were displaced by the hurricane. Someone locally may have lost their job, too, because their business shut down because of the hurricane.

Angela Griffin

We had 67 replay games (that year), a little over 9,100 plays, and we shut it down 43 times. And of the 43 we shut down, we reversed 21. That tells you the referees ain't bad. They get most of them right.

Dave Parry

The review was needed anyway as there are four refineries still shut. But on the other hand, the market has reacted well to Katrina, with flexibility.

Claude Mandil

A dream start really. You score five goals and you shut out a good team. Certainly a lot to be pleased about.

Mike Devaney

The significance of this one I can say with confidence is an entire organization was shut down.

Leigh Winchell

They're scrappy, they stay in it. They hang in there and hang in there and I give them credit. They kept going to the hole on us and we couldn't really shut off the drive.

Val Anae

It's hard for them to say 'you've got to shut down this player or that player' because we've got a lot of people that can stick it in the net right now.

Mark Francis

It just seems like I pitch very well until one inning, ... It's always a one-inning thing. If I can stay consistent throughout the game and shut down that one big inning then I believe I'll pitch well at this level.

Dustin Mcgowan

They shut the door of the courtroom in our face and said you're not allowed in. The Legislature wrote the statute to protect themselves from exactly this kind of complaint.

Steve Hinchman

It's not a shut-the-door situation. But with the right plan, you can have something really beautiful.

Terry Gannon

They shut us down completely in the second half. Either that or we were just a little more offensive (offending).

Bill Cowell

Aren't forced to choose between relinquishing their identities or being shut out of the program altogether.

John Boehner

I felt like I was off in the first half. They shut me down. They got into my head. They'd stop my drive, and when I tried to dish, they have long arms.

Okesene Ale Jr

We kept pressing. We haven't shut the engines off until the last buzzer all season. It worked for us today.

Drew Clarkin

Our Northern California congressional district has been ground zero for many tragic events from an outdated and inflexible ESA, including ... the Klamath Basin water shut-off of 2001.

Wally Herger

People are going to have huge utility debts. And they're going to end up, a lot of them, shut off in the spring and summer and they're going to carry that debt into next winter.

Glenn Cooper

And it just attacked his lungs and just totally shut them down.

Bonnie Griggs

Scoring a goal is a euphoric feeling-and it's not so much the puck going in. It's the reaction from your teammates, the opponents and the fans-like, to shut up a crowd or to have your fans go berserk is the greatest feeling. It makes the hair on the back of my neck stand up.

Brett Hull

He's a tremedous player. We shut him down, but everyone else scored.

Andy Scott

Our pressure defense was great. We knew they had some good athletes, but we were able to shut them down after the first quarter.

Tee Newman

You know how the English are always like, 'It's so rainy, that's why we're so miserable'? Come to Montreal! You're somebody who thinks you've been through bad weather, and you have no clue. Shut up.

Dave Hamelin

We are going to individually visit all of those houses to shut off the gas meters and then when the repairs are made, we will turn them back on. This is extremely unusual, and we are really looking into what exactly caused that ignition, but we just won't know for some time.

Caroline Allen

At some point, and it varies from year to year, the asphalt plant shuts down. When it's cold, you can't lay asphalt. We want it done before the plants shut down. We intend to do everything we can to make that happen.

David Troyer

Microsoft and Netscape gobbled up market share from all the small independent e-mail firms with nice technology and features. By bundling e-mail into their software, they shut down the marketplace. Look at Qmail. Look at Eudora.

David Passmore

The Reserve Bank can just about shut up shop until 2006...the two remaining board meetings (this year) will prove nonevents.

Craig James

If we accept the permit, we would have to shut down the mine. Why would we want to do that? We can't operate without mining.

John Petterson

I think it's going to be a real battle and I can't wait for it. It's just put up or shut up right now.

Frostee Rucker

If one part of our game is shut down, the other will pick it up.

Jessica Jenkins

Each has his past shut in him like the leaves of a book known to him by heart and his friends can only read the title.

Virginia Woolf

We were looking for our defense to spark our offense, we shut a good team down tonight.

Tom Peller

Put more frankly, they should keep they mouths shut and concentrate on their performances.

Oliver Bierhoff

For, to appreciate a work of art we need bring with us nothing from life, no knowledge of its ideas and affairs, no familiarity with its emotions. Art transports us from the world of man's activity to a world of aesthetic exaltation. For a moment we are shut off from human interests; our anticipations and memories are arrested; we are lifted above the stream of life.

Clive Bell

When they finally got it shut down it was livable in there.

Curt Bateman

Had there been a criminal record, the door on him would have been shut from the get-go. If, in fact, someone stepped through the screening process undetected, we're grateful it came to light, and we'll take steps to eliminate something like this from happening again.

Walt Rulffes

Nobody's coming to get us. The secretary has promised. Everybody's promised. They've had press conferences. I'm sick of the press conferences. For God's sake, shut up and send us somebody.

Aaron Broussard

I have to credit Haley (Nelson) on a great job pitching tonight. She hit her spots for the most part. She struggled a little bit in the third inning with her control, but she battled back to shut them down.

Jeremy Trill

It was a relatively small group that orchestrated the campaign to shut the school down. They tried and tried, but they couldn't find a governor who would do it ... that is, until they found Governor Jordan.

Verlene Powell

It was very appropriate. I couldn't imagine how we could be shut out of our rights to a referendum because of a mistake in the minutes. It just seems unfair and inappropriate.

Julia Robinson

They (Phantoms) played hard and well. Our guys continued to play hard into the fourth quarter. This year, we have had as many as 10 guys score in different categories. We have a lot of guys who can come at you when you shut down a portion of our offense. We have other guys who can score. That has been part of our success so far this season. When we put things together, we do well.

Kevin Donnelly

This is extremely disappointing, because many people have worked very hard to help us find solutions so we didn't have to shut down. Now, we'll just have to come up with creative programming that is not confined to walls.

Jen Dibble

Sunday at 6 p.m., we shut it down.

Kevin Roy

Had there been a lunatic asylum in the suburbs of Jerusalem, Jesus Christ would infallibly have been shut up in it at the outset of his public career. That interview with Satan on a pinnacle of the Temple would alone have damned him, and everything that happened after could but have confirmed the diagnosis.

Henry Ellis

Today they had to shut down just a little bit ago. They couldn't get enough tank pressure. It was too cool.

Lonny Schmadeke

Shooting has been a weak spot at times this season. We just can't seem to find our rhythm as times. Give Georgetown credit. They really played well in the second half and really shut us down with their press. We just didn't adjust well enough in the second half to win, but the effort was there.

Steve O'connor

The key to shutting down an offense is to shut down their receivers. If you shut down the passing game, their offense really doesn't have anything.

Justin Phinisee

I was at the school this morning when the buses were arriving and I saw ….(the buses) had two to three kids on them and that was sad to know that one person could almost shut down a whole school.

Maj. Ricky Gardner

That was our goal. We knew she was the focal point of their offense. And we wanted to shut down all three of them, Radke, Young and Wyss. We wanted to make someone else beat us.

Steve Board

This year's squad can shut anybody out in the country. Last year's squad could score a goal at any minute.

Chris Petrucelli

You can only talk about potential for so long, and then you either put up or shut up. ... We feel this is our year to prove a point.

David Dellucci

The thing with Rollins is they've got tremendous pitching. We're going to have to continue to swing the bats and we're going to have to shut them down. Runs may be hard to come by this weekend.

Paul Knight

Anytime you get shut out and really get whipped, you really have extra incentive. This is an outstanding team we're playing. It's going to be a challenge, but we're looking forward to it.

Tommy Richardson

I don't have all of the answers of why the city wants to shut it down.

Walter Turnbull

We had to have five sets of wires lifted. We didn't have to shut anyone's power off, but it was tight.

Greg Engstrom

I have the best weight-loss plan of anybody in the world - get your mouth wired shut.

Mike Cameron

It's either put up or shut up now. I hope guys aren't giving up.

Brad Wilkerson

Much talking is the cause of danger. Silence is the means of avoiding misfortune. The talkative parrot is shut up in a cage. Other birds, without speech, fly freely about.

Saskya Pandita

We're doing what we need to do. We've released the staff, we've shut the doors. Now we're cleaning up the mess.

Mary Sayre

We are already reaching the point in Auckland where we are planning to take customers off-line, to shut them down so that we can cope with a major contingency.

Keith Turner

It's definitely good to know that when I'm getting shut down we've got a team that can take up the slack.

Amanda Radovich

The orthopedics department has effectively been shut down because you need a certain number of cases - 250 every six months - to maintain adequate training for registrars.

David Wood

If problems develop, we will rescind the authorization. This is in line with the direction Gov. (Matt) Blunt provided when he ordered us to shut down RES in December.

Doyle Childers

Tara just completely shut us down.

Greg Hardin

Banning cargo sweeping would be catastrophic to the shipping industry. It would shut down power production, steel production and all kinds of construction activities in the region.

James Weakley

My fears are it's not going to stop, I can shut off the open sign.

Ron Shreeve

He pitched 3 1/2 innings in a game early in the year. He had a bruise on his elbow. We shut him down two weeks. He came back and has been fine ever since.

Chris Reilly

I think our team strength is definitely our defense. They not only can shut down our opponents, but they generate so much offense for us.

Sean Maxwell

The alternative is to shut down the school, ... And we don't think that's fair to the kids, because those days would have to be made up at Christmas break or in July.

Stephen Brown

If they don't (contact the borough), we're going to have to shut off their service.

Don Flickinger

We were fortunate that Shaq got into foul trouble. It was nothing we did as a team, even though we shut the paint down a little bit. Shaq got three offensive fouls and a couple were bad calls, so we got lucky on that.

Michael Sweetney

To say it's shutdown is difficult. It's almost impossible to physically shut it down.

Steve Boylan

We don't want to shut something down that could prevent us from completing that mission.

Robert Lightfoot

With the two six-footers that Forman has, they're scoring almost all of the team's points in the paint. We were able to put pressure on their perimeter players and shut them down.

Dave Macnutt

Came and asked me to shut down the pumps, because there were chemicals in the car they were afraid of.

Mark Christensen

Just shut up and entertain me, meat puppet.

Bradley Whitford

Austin played real well tonight when they shut down Kevin (Denman).

Darrell Gravatt

It's a good decision to leave Legal Ease in San Marcos. But I'm disappointed they won't let any new dispensaries open because if it is shut down there will be no place to go in North County.

Joe Notar

That made me mad and I wanted to score just to make him shut up. I thought (my shot) was going to hit the post and bounce out, but once it went in I got really excited for the seniors because we needed a win to get in the playoffs.

Matthew Smith

I don't know if it was more the 4-3 or what. But as the game progressed, we started feeling them out. That first series was the toughest series of the ball game. Just going in and seeing what they were going to do, what we were going to do. We went to 4-3 and that's when we really shut them down.

Vince Wilfork

The team played so well in front of me. We kept them on the outside and controlled all the rebounds tonight. It was great to shut down a high-powered team. But I know they'll be flying the next time we play them.

Jeff Lerg

It's almost like she's determined to shut us down. (But) this is our livelihood.

Pat Carlton

These locks and dams are in such poor shape that any big problem with one of them and the river is shut down. It really affects corn prices and barge trade.

Rob Elliott

We only got three hits and got shut out.

Mike Trapasso

My gut feelings and my faith tell me that until God shuts a door, no human can shut it.

Olusegun Obasanjo

When Morgan gets shut down, somebody has to step up. Haley really stepped up and hit some crucial shots. We also had some pretty good role players step up as well and give us a big lift.

Jamie Rains

It's okay to be fat. So you're fat. Just be fat and shut up about it.

Roseanne Barr

You look at the other team and try to figure out who's capable of beating you. Obviously, we're not going to shut anyone down, but we tried to slow those guys down.

Barry Gebhart

Had the NRC known that the plant was being operated with leakage ... the agency would have taken immediate action to shut down the plant.

James Caldwell

We have been awful vocal against the referees this year and that might be coming back to bite us. I think we just have to shut our mouths and go out and play.

Chris Gratton

The Endangered Species Act is in desperate need of an update, ... It has hurt species recovery by leading to the trend we all know as 'shoot, shovel and shut up.' And it has hurt family farmers and ranchers by taking their property away.

Richard Pombo

Taking an anti-Israel position is certainly not going to hurt him in the public mind. His attitude says that 'no one is going to shut me up' and probably goes down pretty well with [average people] in Tehran.

Gary Sick

They shut us down defensively, they did a good job, we missed a lot of shots. They got us in the kind of game that the wanted to. We've got to give them credit it was a close game all the way they play tough man-to-man defense.

Paul Bilodeau

In the second half, we were able to shut down their post game, and cause havoc on defense.

Kristi Snider

Well, if there's poison in the beer, you shut down St. Patty's day.

Pat Buchanan

When refineries are shut down naturally, the amount of fuel you deliver to the market would be lower. That doesn't speak to whether or not the U.S. motorist is burning less fuel.

Ben Brockwell

Whole towns shut down on Friday night for games. Every small town. I was born here in California. I know it isn't like that here.

Robert Killebrew

We didn't shut down their top two players. Our goal was to shut those two down.

Ryan Pollock

The agriculture industry was shut down today.

Joe Mota

A lot of heart. There's so much I could have stopped dealing with at all. I could have rebelled, shut down, something like that. But I have my family to take care of. I have a lot of things. But through the grace of God, he has helped me carry through.

Krystal Thomas

If someone gets us going, we usually do all right, and if no one does by the sixth or seventh, we usually get shut out. The same thing happened (Tuesday) night. A couple of guys get it going, and you have a big hit.

Jason Lane

It's hard for some athletes like that. It's hard for them to cope and they shut down and don't want to do the exercises.

Brandon Ferguson

But I love the way the Sox put trust in their starting pitchers. They kept their pitch counts low and just shut us down.

Bud Withers

No matter how well you hit, you're going to face good pitching in the playoffs. So you've got to have guys on the mound that can shut everybody else down too. And not just one.

Ashley Burnett

After a thorough analysis of our options, we determined it was more advantageous for the company and our shareholders to quickly and decisively shut down the business. We will continue to honor our commitments to all of our customers, suppliers and vendor partners.

James O'neill

Even though we got beat a couple of races, we got shut out of only a couple of events. The kids performed well, only being the second meet. We had new kids at some events that stepped up. I was very pleased with our performance tonight.

Scott Baird

Some people would've shut themselves away, and she was never like that, ... She was very willing to go out and talk about it.

Adrian Jackson

She was starting to take over the game and I got a little more physical with her and shut her down.

Kelsey Cermak

Part of the goal was not to spend more resources preparing for trial. We took him off the street. We shut down his business.

Caroline Shepherd

It essentially would shut the county down. We would no longer be competitive.

Steve Pessagno

You've got to be safe. Everything within spec, brake adjustment, axle seals, anything. But they'll go above and beyond just to try and shut you down.

Larry Rhodes

It's kind of shut off to the public. I don't think we are trying to hide it. It's just the location of where it is.

Dan Netto

We are going to shut down Denver.

Paul Lopez

They've got a good club. Our guys ... it's still important to them, and that's the most important thing. They got after from the fifth (inning) on. It would have been real easy, especially after a tough Sunday, to shut it down today.

Dale Harpenau

We've got some guys who throw the ball real well. The last two times out, Murphy's been dynamite. He's just flat-out shut people down.

Ken Gray

Nixon's strategy was to give a lot of access to local reporters and shut national reporters out.

Kathleen Hall Jamieson

[Wednesday's edition of The Nation newspaper, published by the company, covered its front page with the headline] Shut Up or Shut Down, ... going all out to silence his enemies.

Thaksin Shinawatra

I think my flow or supply of money has been shut off. That's just my opinion.

David Steele

It had been iffy on and off for the past year. They had said last year that if they could not find a buyer they would shut down. It is still a shock because we were hoping it would be sold so that we would be open.

Joy Wright

I just got up there. The interception felt great, and it felt great to win that game. A lot of people were kind of talking junk about us, but that shut them up. Now we've got a win under our belts against a team that's a 4A power.

Maurice Lyerly

I was the shyest human ever invented, but I had a lion inside me that wouldn't shut up!

Ingrid Bergman

He shut us down. He throws hard, probably in the mid- to upper 80s. He intimidated our kids a little bit -- I don't think they've hit much against someone throwing that hard.

Lance Baker

They're not going to know that for certain until they shut the plant down and get into the containment building and get a closer look.

Neil Sheehan

Not only did they not shut down the protest, but it's grown larger and stronger.

Chris Reid

I'm mostly disturbed 'n stuff by people saying, 'Shut up, we don't want to hear you, you freak.' That would bother anyone, ... You'd be offended, too. We have the right as human beings to share our opinions.

William Roderick

When neither of them had any alcoholic drinks there was no problem. But when they'd had drinks and they locked themselves in their room, fights would erupt. But I can't tell you who was right or who was wrong because the door was always shut.

Adalberto Oliveira

Come when you're called And do as you're bid; Shut the door after you And you'll never be chid.

Maria Edgeworth

Just shut up. Just shut up. I gotta figure a way out here.

Brian Nichols

I know they think Julius Jones is the next Emmitt Smith . I played against the guy in college and he's a good running back but he's not a great running back. We knew we were going to shut down the running. That allowed us to get some sacks and pressure on Bledsoe.

Stuart Schweigert

And you don't have to feel it has to be presentable all the time. You can shut the door.

Steve Baldwin

They're just a great team down low. If you shut one down, the other one picks up the pace.

Perry Davis

Mo came in, did the job, and shut the door. They came at us pretty hard.

Craig Simpson

We came in here knowing that defense was going to win this game. The game plan was to shut down Ronald Moore because we felt that he initiated everything on their offense and he is their best player. Without him they have trouble producing anything and I think we did a good job on him.

Ryan Brooks

We just have to try to tighten up in the middle of defence, because we have to shut the ball down with them.

Mark Barrett

Krueger, Kirsch and Ring-Jarvi, they played great, ... The shut them down for the most part.

Steve Mcleod

If you shut it down, it will be back in about five seconds in a million other locations.

Ben Venzke

I know [Rivera's] leg kick is a 1.4 or a 1.5 [seconds]. And when [he uses a slide step], it's a 1.0. I don't care how fast you are, [if the pitcher gets the ball to home in] 1.1, 1.0, you just shut it down because you are going to get thrown out no matter how big your lead is.

Joey Gathright

Shut up and lace up.

L. M. Heroux

You've got to stand up and do your own battles. My daddy taught me that a long time ago, that you fight your own battles. The only way to shut everybody up is to win.

Terry Bradshaw

There was a stretch where we could have put them away but we couldn't get anything going offensively. We shut them down but we didn't do anything about it. We just didn't execute.

Dale Teller

We are going to shut it off at 33 or 34 teams. We still have room for individuals and for some teams.

Jimmy Dean

People are heavy of dollars at present and the U.S. is shut so there is some squaring of positions.

Tom Vosa

I don't think anyone can shut her down one-on-one. Even against a zone, we'll still get the ball to her. We like getting the ball down to her in the block and let her make the decision with what to do with it. She has some great post moves or can pass the ball.

Jim Webb

If I am fortunate enough to win next year, I will keep my mouth shut.

Steve Redgrave

All of these are necessary right now. Otherwise, much of the efforts of the military will be shut down.

Ike Skelton

We used to do a special rodeo performance for city school kids but that got shut down. For some of those kids, it was the only interaction they ever had with a farm animal.

Chad Cabral

It will be packed early. Three years in a row, we had to shut the doors at 6:30. [Henderson State] probably has a bigger rivalry with Ouachita because they're right across the street from each other. But I know they look forward to coming here to play.

Jeff Morgan

We just did not shut the door. Every time you put them on base, you give them life, and then they?re a hit away. It?s just a shame. It?s disheartening to play so hard for seven innings and then just hand it to them in the eighth and ninth.

Riccardo Ingram

Our goal is to go out and shut opponents down on the offensive end. Good defense creates offense.

Tristan Welch

They shut down our 3s; shut down our outside game and then doubled on Ashley and I said, 'girls, you've got to make something happen. I said you've got to cut a lot quicker, move a lot more and you know what, we're not used to having to do that. They made us work to create shots and we didn't create any.

Paul Phelps

I think that?s what makes us so strong, because we are all so even. I think it?s awesome that we?re like this. It?s not like you shut down one player and you have us.

Morgan Taylor

We've shut her down the last two or three years.

Tom Sanvik

We are not worried about service being shut down. We have spoken to executives at RIM and feel comfortable that they have proven workarounds.

Beth Perlman

I'm not really cut out to be a politician. You know that I sometimes don't know when to shut up. That could be a drawback. I'm an atheist. So there you go right there. I can't be elected to anything because polls all say that people won't elect an atheist... As we all know, that is something people won't accept.

Ron Reagan

Our team's been known for its defense, and Akron did a good job taking advantage of our mistakes. You have to give a lot of credit to McHugh. She came in and shut us down.

Gene Lenti

We need to be aggressive and shut them off, don't give them space. We are not afraid to give up some possession -- Chicago had a lot of possession last week [in a 1-0 Revolution win] -- but we will go at them as quickly as possible when we get possession. That's been our style from Day 1.

Michael Parkhurst

Their speed makes them one of the faster teams in the country. They like to get up and down the ice. What we need to do is get in their way, really shut them down, play the body. That was pretty effective when we played them all three times this season.

Derek Damon

The issue of school overcrowding has been more acute lately. If we don't work out the problem . . . we're going to be forced to shut down all development that is not age-restricted, and that would be a mistake.

Steve Richey

What that did is pretty much shut me out of the aviation world.

Gerry Brown

Mum put me in drama classes when I was about 14. I'd been going on about it for some time, so maybe it was a way to shut me up.

Naomi Watts

I have a real problem making checks on a place not legally licensed. I recommend it be shut down immediately.

Alan Davis

The first couple of innings we couldn't shut them down. That was the difference. Give them credit. They hit the ball well. Our pitching has been pretty good for us. Today we struggled a little.

Matt Collins

If you have a virus on the system that's generating results, you have to shut down the servers. You have to shut down the competition, and the international federation is going to be really upset.

Yan Noblot

You're shut out. How would someone get in and help you?, ... It's all gated in. Once you get in deep here, I think it's too dangerous.

Robert Morse

DeAngelo competed well against one of the premier receivers in the NFL. T.O. had seven catches. You're not going to shut a guy like that down. But Hall was up for the challenge. He kept him out of the endzone. He stopped him when we had to stop him.

Jim Mora

Getting down 10-0 right away is tough. Our pitcher, Leslie (Higley), she hung in there and came out and shut them out the rest of the way. That's a huge positive for her to be able to do that, we could've been down 15-0, 20-0 by the fifth inning.

Lonny Sargent

The closing of the Emerson plant was a blow to the community as well as the many talented employees who lost work with the shut down of that plant.

Johnny Dalton

Cherish that which is within you, and shut off that which is without.

Chuang tzu

Maybe we just shut it down.

Thomas Berkery

We were shut down. For this team to do that, it's just not acceptable.

Brian Randle

If we put contra-flow in place, then we shut down that corridor very quickly.

Paul Clark

His eye was already swollen shut, completely shut. It was already turning colors. Blood was pouring from his mouth and his nose at the same time.

Demetra Blevins

We're going against the defending champs. We can go up there and shut a lot of people's mouths. If we go up there and be focused and play our game, we'll come out and take care of them boys.

Deon Grant

I have mud all along the front of my house. There are inches of dirt inside my window sills, and they're always shut. We can't even open our garage, the dirt is so deep. I rent my house and my carpets are ruined. I'm not going to get my deposit back.

Connie Smith
