Epictetus

When you play a competitive game like this, it's going to be a game of runs. We had one early and they came back. We just got out of sync and rhythm offensively. In the third quarter we had some shots we normally make. They didn't go down. They played very good defense and made it tough on us to score.

Aaron Rosenberg

There are three classes of intellects: one which comprehends by itself; another which appreciates what others comprehend; and a third which neither comprehends by itself nor by the showing of others; the first is the most excellent, the second is good, and the third is useless.

Leo Durocher

I've always followed my father's advice: he told me, first to always keep my word and, second, to never insult anybody unintentionally. If I insult you, you can be goddamn sure I intend to. And, third, he told me not to go around looking for trouble.

John Wayne

What if nothing exists and we're all in somebody's dream? Or what's worse, what if only that fat guy in the third row exists?

Woody Allen

The second one was big. The power play hadn't been clicking too good. It showed a lot from our team, because no doubt about it, we lost our composure in the third period (Wednesday). Today, we came out like nothing had happened.

Joffrey Lupul

We had about five or six opportunities in the third quarter and I think three or four of them were wide-open looks that just didn't go down.

Arno Kirchenwitz

Two years ago, Kelso beat us by 20 and we came back and beat them in this (third-place) game.

Whitney Scott

What's going to drive things over the next several weeks is how third-quarter earnings come out.

Hans Olsen

I thought we played a great game tonight. I thought we outplayed them. Trumbull has a good team. We jumped up on them, they broke back with four straight goals, we outplayed them in the third period and overtime, but they got a lucky bounce. That's what can happen in overtime.

Doug Robinson

That low inflation rate leaves the Fed plenty of latitude to remain on hold, and reinforces our expectation that [a rate increase] is unlikely before the third quarter of 2004.

Maury Harris

There's a big difference between third and 10 and third and 4. I can call an offense if you give me that (third and 4). Our biggest improvement needs to be getting the sticks in our favor.

Robert Nunn

We're going to continue to do what's right for the growth of the business. Our pricing strategy is not to maximize margin percentage growth but to maximize buying for our customers, ... As we grow, we'll be able to get better economies of scale, better prices from our suppliers and our third-party sellers. All that should help margins.

Tom Szkutak

The market potential is quite large but unquantifiable. You could be looking at a market ... one third (the size) of the 35mm movie film market.

Steve Roach

Leo (Mullin, Delta's CEO) has said further unionization would not be in the best interest of Delta or Delta people. He's vowed to maintain top pay so there will not be a need for a third party.

Alesia Watson

The game was close through the first half, but everything just went our way in the third.

Gary Sprague

I want to do more commissions and the very important second and third productions of new works - giving them the life that will bring them into the standard repertoire.

Placido Domingo

That extra output from guys lower in your lineup makes the difference. We have guys on that third or fourth line that can score.

Regg Simon

Usually if a running back slips to the third or fourth round, it's probably because the guy is missing something in one area whether it's height, he's been injured or he's just not explosive.

Russ Lande

We're third in district. No matter if we win or lose (today), we'll still be third.

Della Rector

We turned it over five times in a row in the third quarter and they were uncontested turnovers. You can't do that against a good team.

Larry Mikesell

We don't have anything new planned. We're just going to come out strong and improve on what we did last night. I thought we had a bad third quarter.

Cody Jones

Brandon's probably our second- or third-best shooter on the team. Of course, we have to have him inside, to get close-to-the-basket buckets, but there are times when we're going to pull him out on the perimeter, too.

Anthony Longstreet

It was a really intense learning experience because the show was already up and running. We had to assimilate all that had happened in the first half of the season. It was our third day there when they asked us to write some scenes for the next episode. It was trial by fire.

Adam Horowitz

We covered about 300 homes today. And visited them and checked on whether they had smoke alarms. And roughly one-third of them didn't have working smoke alarms in their homes.

Bruce Garner

We are a golf mecca. The pieces are in place to ... make us leap from being [an] also-ran [to] being very competitive in that second-and-third-tier of cities.

Richard Goldman

They kept us at bay there for a little while and did a good job on the other side. They kind of kept the offense down for a little while, but the second and third trips through the lineup we did well.

Stuart Landreneau

John is an excellent third baseman and the fact that he can play many positions makes him a valuable player for us. We are very excited to add John to an infield which has greatly improved from last season.

Hal Lanier

We were horrible in the first two periods. We played a little better in the third. I know I had a horrible game.

Sean Bergenheim

We'll start to see improved margins and some very nice flow-through in the third quarter.

James Perry

It looked like we might finish third or fourth. Now I feel there's nobody in the conference that we can't beat. I think it's wide open.

Kevin Cory

There are three things that are important in human life. The first is to be kind. The second is to be kind. The third is to be kind.

Henry James

We were able to force a lot of turnovers, especially in the second and third quarters. We had some easy baskets.

Buddy Carlisle

Joe Biden

Being the third-down back is a highly skilled job. There's pass protections, route running, variations of protections. He's getting better at it every week.

Bob Bratkowski

I chose to play some of my younger players today. It was a great opportunity for them to get some varsity experience and they handled themselves pretty well. Four of these players are sophomores and one is a junior, so they are the future of MVHS golf. I'm proud of them as they picked up our third win of the season.

Peter Stuart

One-third of the kills this winter were calves. The wolves need to go down to give more calves a chance of reaching adulthood.

Rolf Peterson

Clearly we are disappointed with our performance. The team did a great job once again, and third and fourth is a credible result but not what we came here for. The handicap and performance breaks given to teams need to be re-adjusted, this is clear and is acknowledged by everyone.

George Howard

Employers in the Green Bay area expect slightly softer hiring conditions than in the third quarter when 20 percent of the companies interviewed intended to add staff and 10 percent expected to reduce headcount. Normally, the fourth quarter (October to December) drops because budgets are spent.

Lisa Ellis

With this overlap in mind, (takeover) interest from third parties may well be limited.

Morgan Stanley

There used to be several places on Government Way, and Third and Fourth streets. Now everything's sold.

Tom Fisher

We got some easy buckets against their press in the third quarter. I told the girls that if we get some easy baskets in the third quarter we are going to win the game.

Jason Murgel

There were volunteers who would go to that theater at, say, 9 o'clock in the morning and work upstairs on the third floor. They were so devoted that they would stay for the evening performance.

Marjorie Belka

This is the third consecutive Olympics where we will have NHL players and NHL referees. This IIHF-NHL cooperation ... provides possibilities that are beneficial to the game. Sometimes we learn from them, sometimes they learn from us.

Rene Fasel

They kept coming in the third period and I thought we played timid around the puck and let them take it to us.

Greg Hirsch

Revenue growth is decelerating rapidly, and a trough isn't expected until the third quarter of 2001, ... Based on semiconductor industry data for November, we also lowered our projection of the global industry's growth rate in 2000 to 36 percent from 40 percent.

Mark Edelstone

It's tough to take. We've worked since third and fourth grade for this, but we have to also look at what we accomplished. We got to the Final Four.

Jessie Carmack

We're in the third architectural revision of the physical infrastructure below and the container management and billing and security and job isolation on top. It's really hard. It's a lot harder than we thought.

Greg Papadopoulos

They adjusted well and we struggled against the zone. We came out anxious in the third quarter, made some turnovers and we broke down. Once we did, we could never get it back.

Donald Parker

New Mexico's block really affected our attack in the third game.

Nikki Best

We're really looking forward to getting back to Salem. I've always loved that track. I always felt I understood the track. It's been awhile, but I remember the place well, so we still have some good notes to go off of. I hadn't been to Berlin in 3 or 4 years either, but we still ran third over there, so I'm not too concerned about Salem.

Tim Steele

They came out in the third quarter and picked up where they left off.

Jack Martino

When you consider about 70 percent of all attacks are made with IEDs of all types and account for more than one-third of all U.S. casualties, they are a big problem.

Barry Venable

You're talking about the third-top goal-scorer in the NHL ... I think he should just go in. I think he'll have to wait, but I'd have no problem with him going in tomorrow.

Barry Melrose

Amanda Meyer is a nice young lady, and as well meaning as she is, she's a third party in this.

Roger Launius

We finally adjusted and set off the net much better in the third and fourth games. We only made seven serving errors in the match (80-for-87), but they all seemed to come on critical points.

George Sullivan

You can't be the third term of Bush. People want change. They want a different direction.

Ron Kaufman

They're strong at two and three (singles). We have a lot of options and this is one of our options as to who we want to play in singles. This was a good test for this lineup and I'm not so sure that this is the lineup that we're going to have at the end of the year. This is only our third match.

Bill Reed

Pick your poison with Warren. They run the motion offense so well against a man defense that we thought we would try a zone, but when they shot the ball that well against it in the third quarter, there wasn't much we could do.

Scott Bogumil

We won't interchange much since he took third place in the WPIAL. I don't want to push anything more than what he is doing. He is pretty good.

Keith Hart

You take away those last nine games from us and we wind up in third or fourth place. (But) you have more time to prepare for (conference) games and you have more time to play other conferences, which is pretty interesting.

Frank Cruz

We decided that either the third time was the charm, or at the very least, the last time either of us was going through it.

David Watson

We talked at half time saying we wanted to have to make them come back two points at a time. Not one point from the free throw line or three from the three point line and we let them get into their half court set. We knew that was pretty much their game and they were going to shoot the three and it just happened they only hit them in the third and not in the rest of the game.

Dan Schwieterman

They say the hardest thing to do is to come back to place third. I would have much rather been in the finals, but no worries One is good.

Adin Due'as

When I look at it individually, I think it's a natural progression -- coaching first base for the last four years [and] coaching third base in the Minor Leagues -- for me to go from first to third.

Demarlo Hale

When we got the lead it was a little bit of a surprise to me. In the third period, the game was going full-speed and they turned up all cylinders. It was very hard for us to survive a game like that.

Arturs Irbe

We feel fortunate. I think (Pitman) is getting better. They played very well and it's not an easy place to play. It's tough playing a team for a third time. But, we feel fortunate to get out of there with a win.

Keith Hunter

She's got a couple of tears in the upper third of the tendon, which spells retirement. It's not horrible, but a filly like this, the way she's come around as of late, there's not even a question. It's just a shame. She couldn't have trained better since the race at Saratoga, but that's how these things happen sometimes.

Neil Howard

We want to try listing the second and third floors on the Internet, to buy or lease those floors.

Dave Colbert

He has looked good at third. He has great hands.

Paul Cochran

The third quarter was probably the difference in the game. When you get behind like that to a team the quality of BIC, it's hard to come back. We did a great job coming back and tying the game up and going into overtime.

Spencer Hoffman

We had them backed up on their own 1 and let them out. We needed to come up with some third-down stops.

Joe Lobendahn

Being right there at the entrance to Steele Indian School Park, I think we'll all see Third Street continue to grow and development around the park over the coming years.

Kevin O'neill

Don't put your snow shovel away. Last year, we didn't get out until the third week of January, and we were on the ice until March 20.

Pat Chrysler

This game was big for us. We still have a chance to get the third seed but we need some help. We didn't help ourselves tonight. We battled but we just got beat.

Jonathan Wells

But when they won the third game I started to believe.

Carlton Fisk

I thought we picked up the intensity in the third quarter. Offensively, we started shooting well. That has been our Achilles heel this season, but when we can do that, a lot of good things will happen for us.

Matt Kordsmeier

The stock is getting hit today because investors are shocked at the pre-announcement and not so much at the miss. Even after Sept. 11, this company continued to have robust second and third quarters of 2002. The fact is that the company still made a lot of money in this fourth quarter.

Thomas Underwood

We know customers are buying new hardware [on a regular basis]. Customers recycle about one-third [of their hardware] each year. That's a very sure way to migrate over to the desktop.

Craig Beilinson

We gave up too much space in the middle third of the field and when you combine that with little pressure on the ball, that makes for a long day at the park.

Russ Lawson

It really starts with getting less third-and-long situations, and that's what we've gotten ourselves into early. Our short yardage has hurt us. We've missed on three third-and-ones and one third-and two. If you convert those, we're middle of the pack on third down. Now we've been great in short yardage (in the past). It hasn't been great to start out with, and we'll improve on that.

Greg Knapp

You, men of England, who have no right to this Kingdom of France, the King of Heaven orders and notifies you through me, Joan the Maiden, to leave your fortresses and go back to your own country; or I will produce a clash of arms to be eternally remembered. And this is the third and last time I have written to you; I shall not write anything further.

Joan of Arc

We're not simply financing a picture and then going to look for distribution, ... For the most part we're partnering with studio distributors before the films go into production so that we're sharing the upside and sharing the risk. It also gives us a third-party sanity check.

David Weil

In the first three minutes of the third quarter we took their will away.

Andre Walker

Production cutbacks have remained in place in the third quarter and this has helped to further reduce inventory levels worldwide.

Lakshmi Mittal

These are the sort of problems that we typically see when patches don't cooperate well with various third-party software and some of the less used functions of Windows.

Johannes Ullrich

Consumers still do appear to be spending their (tax) rebate checks, but perhaps not as aggressively as we would have hoped. Certainly corporate profits still look pretty bleak headed into the third-quarter warning season.

Jeff Kleintop

I would have been satisfied with a one-point win. But to see our offense take off in the second and third quarters really made a statement we are on another level.

Lamar Owens

I didn't know how, but I had to fight through it. I was a little tired. He was slipping my Russian tie a little better, so I adjusted a little bit. I felt him breaking (in the third period).

Matt Hemry

We're not in a position at this time to provide revised numbers. (But) it's safe to assume we will not make our third- or fourth- quarter numbers.

Marc Grossman

Not all lucid dreams are useful but they all have a sense of wonder about them. If you must sleep through a third of your life, why should you sleep through your dreams, too?

Stephen Laberge

The worst part was (our play) late in the second quarter and early in the third quarter. We weren't scoring, and they were hitting threes, and that's not a good combination.

Billy Mack Steed

The third quarter was a clinic. To hold the other team to no points, to only have two turnovers and outscore them 14-0, that's a textbook game. The defense was so good. There were several plays where we completely disrupted their offense.

Dawn Seiler

People's Choice voting is Saturday only. The ribbons will be placed on the exhibits on Sunday. Voting will be for best of show and second and third place.

Jan Connelley

My gut feeling is they'll probably say there will be low visibility in the near term, but things will come back in the third or fourth quarter of calendar 2001.

Stephen Kamman

It's been a while since I had one and when I rounded first and saw Tracy hung up in-between home and third. Fortunately for us the ball finally bounced our way. It was good to come out on the winning end of one.

Chris Snyder

If we were to select the most intelligent, imaginative, energetic, and emotionally stable third of mankind, all races would be present.

Franz Boas

We are just daring people to try and go to third and home on Daniel. We need to have Daniel on the field at all times.

Tom Woodruff

Everyone did best times. And whether it's for first or third or for 15th place, all we can control is how fast our kids swim. All our kids swam great.

Tony Demuro

Our confidence is really getting up there. If someone had told us beforehand we were going to start out 3-1 on the third day of play, we probably would have said 'right on, we'll take it.' It gives us a lot of confidence going onto the next game especially.

Kelly Scott

Brigitte had a great night, she really did. We missed a lot of serves in the first two games, then our defense picked it up in the third, fourth and fifth games, and we started blocking the ball.

Melissa Taylor

The movie picks up at my experiences at the second, third and fourth schools. This is where I had principals tell me [ballroom dancing] was too elitist and ask where will these kids ever use it. They didn't see what I saw.

Pierre Dulaine

We knew the first five minutes of the third quarter would be important. Fort Worth played well and we didn't. We really struggled offensively. Give them credit, because they took some good shots and really opened up the floor.

Terry Thimlar

Our objective has always been third and when we get there, we'll look at second place. These next games are extremely important. The third, fourth and fifth place teams are playing really well right now and if you lose two or three in a row, it could really drop you down in the standings.

Glenn Walsh

One cardinal told me while he was listening to the votes being counted, he said three rosaries. And I said two, and the third said, 'Well I prayed mine with greater piety, and it was just one.' .

William Keeler

People are confused and think there are one group of homeless. Thirty percent of the homeless that use the shelter are employed, a third have high school diplomas and 10 percent have college degrees. Only 6 percent are on public assistance.

Jim Featherstone

One of our problems all year was that we didn't have that third line producing as many points as our first and second line. I called (the Mitchell, Banks, Slaney line) our third line, but Saturday, you couldn't really tell a difference.

Josh Blaisdell

With the end of the third sales phase, 2.6 million of the approximately 3 million available tickets have been sold, including 1.1 million to customers around the world through the official Web site.

Horst Schmidt

We haven't been able to pick up third-and-short running all year. But I think our offensive line is finally coming together.

Brodie Croyle

In the third when Justin intercepted the pass for a TD, it really took the wind out of their sails. It was so impressive and just pumped everybody up.

Jim Smart

This was the first time that [a proper summer break] has happened for me and it is my third year with Bayern.

Roy Makaay

What we teach is that there should never be third party use of the data. You have an arrangement using your biometric to acquire some service from that second party, and that's the only place that information is retained.

Larry Hornak

With him, we need to get him a touch every time down the floor. Some of the times we got away from that earlier in the season. The first couple minutes of the third quarter are probably the most important of the game because you have to come out and build your lead or get back into the game. We've taken the approach of let's get the ball into Dan and Neil's hands and go from there.

Darin Hazel

The kids started to put it together in the third. There were a lot of freshmen and sophomores that I think grew up out there today and it was nice to see.

Jeff Neese

Francine made some very good sets and Amy got hot for us in the third game. We were much more consistent and cut out the errors.

Steve Lapham

We believe that Compaq also did a good job on the profitability front, which should enable operating margins to more than double from third-quarter levels ... this should lead to earnings-per-share at least several cents higher than the consensus First Call estimates of $0.16.

Dan Niles

I was real disappointed with the play in the third period. I was certainly unhappy that we didn't generate more offense and put some pressure on their net. That's not the way to [win] against a good opponent.

Walt Kyle

The mindset needs to shift from that of a mass producer and publisher to a much more potent mix of high-quality niche content, and also as a mass aggregator of third-party content.

Ashley Highfield

Ross: First divorce: wife's hidden sexuality, not my fault. Second divorce: said the wrong name at the altar, kind of my fault. Third divorce: they shouldn't let you get married when you're that drunk and have stuff drawn all over your face, Nevada's fault.

Friends

In the third quarter we played really well, but then we let up in the fourth, and Pleasant Grove is too good a team to let up against. We made a lot of mistakes in the fourth quarter.

Keith Flood

We generally have had a good feeling going into the third and fourth quarters because the economy is doing better than expected. Semiconductors are going to get a boost from seasonal trends.

Cody Acree

Today, the death tax destroys family businesses and stifles investment that leads to increases in jobs and personal income. As a result, 70 percent of family-owned businesses are not passed on to the next generation and 87 percent do not make it to the third generation.

Jennifer Dunn

We had a really good third quarter. We were able to make up some ground playing against their starters.

Mark Manchester

I am pleased with how they fought back from a very stressful and distressing day number one. I am really pleased with the courage, tenacity and toughness we had mentally to battle our way back from zero points a third of the way through the meet and still finish 18th.

Mark Bernardino

In Florida, we aspire for our third-graders to read. In China, they speak three languages.

Rep. Marco Rubio

You just have to tell them to go out and play hard and try to win the third period, which is all you can do in that situation. You have a young team, we got beat to the puck, we worked specifically in practice this week on things we needed to do and we didn't do them.

Todd Purvis

The Sixth Street Bridge is the Roberto Clemente Bridge, named for a sports figure, and sports is so important in this town. The Seventh Street Bridge is the Andy Warhol Bridge, which points out how important the arts are to this area. And now, the third bridge is dedicated to science, so important to the county.

Richard Fitzgerald

We know they are a good shooting team and in the third quarter they showed it. At the same time we couldn't make a shot.

Dave Hintzmann

You could tell he thought it was the third out. I don't think it was a bad play to go for it. But Eckstein made a good play.

Jack Wilson

We didn't make our shots. We tried to make a run in the third quarter, but we missed too many easy shots that we should be making.

Lance Valley

I didn't pull the team through in a couple of games, the first and third games when they needed me most.

Wavell Hinds

The closest thing to [strong-arm tactics] I've heard about is that sometimes a company may want to run a third-party product, and Microsoft says that if they do, it won't support the platform. Is it possible Microsoft does this? Sure.

Jack Cohen

We are deeply disappointed our lowered guidance for third-quarter earnings precipitated such a dramatic drop in EDS' stock price.

Dick Brown

I was pleased with our effort for three of the four games, but we weren't happy with the third-place finish. We had one really poor game against Santa Margarita, but on that night they played very well and we did not.

Marcelo Enriquez

I think our guys kind of stepped it up and maybe wanted it a little bit more and won some 50-50 balls in their third of the field. That's how we kept the pressure on them.

Scott Bowers

At the end of the second set, it got very tight. The trainer helped me out a little bit. ... I was able to play well in the third set, but, unfortunately, I couldn't serve the same way. And that's probably the best part of my game.

Gustavo Kuerten

We also introduced support for third-party APs.

Howard Rubin

When people rely on cash instead of credit, they're more aware of their spending and end up automatically cutting back by about one-third.

Ruth Hayden

Scioto just hammered us in the second and third quarters the last time we played them.

Todd Minney

The Rugby Club has started collecting cardboard. That is earlier than usual. Construction of our hopefully third-year-in-a-row award-winning craft will begin the night before the race.

Michael Hurley

We believe that Boyd should also benefit from this continued Las Vegas locals growth, so we're currently projecting 9 percent (third-quarter) revenue growth for its Boulder Strip and Coast properties.

Marc Falcone

The first thing was the introduction of the teams, where they ran behind the flags. They had to do it about five times. After the third time, they were exhausted. They didn't know they were going to do it over. They ran out there about a hundred miles an hour.

Pat Ball

First quarter was rough. It took me a while to get in the groove. Second and third quarter, pretty good; fourth quarter was all right until that last play right there. That was a killer.

Shane Steichen

I was with an NBA scout before the game, a buddy of mine. He said this is the second-most athletic team in the country, right behind [third-ranked] Memphis. I have seen some very good teams. They are as good as anybody around. They have a good chemistry. You have to have senior leadership. You have to have seniors to win. ... They have all the ingredients.

Brian Gregory

The change is being driven by what we believe were inappropriate actions taken by Fifth Third after our bankruptcy filing.

Kate Moser

Business conditions continue to be robust. The company expressed high confidence in its third-quarter guidance of greater than $3 billion in bookings, $2.6 to $2.7 million in revenue and EPS of 64 to 68 cents. We believe guidance is conservative and estimate bookings of $3.3 billion with EPS of 70 cents, versus the Street consensus of 68 cents a share.

John Pitzer

Outside of that Phil Matthews didn't have a save to make, Having said that, I don't think we did enough to win the game of football today in terms of what we did in the last third of the pitch.

Paul Kirk

She had a real nice game. She hit two key 3-pointers to start the third quarter to put us ahead and we stayed ahead for the rest of the game.

Henry Fleck

It is the year I have been waiting for. We have three major players beginning their third year on the varsity. And I expect big things from all of them.

Dave Wlodarczyk

We stacked the middle on defense after the third quarter when we noticed that they were running inside the tackles.

John Rafferty

We have to strive for the completion of legal and institutional facilities this year. I hope it can be completed in the first semester or the third quarter of 2006 at the latest.

Burhanuddin Abdullah

I'd like to have a third and a fourth. I'm hoping to stay away from injuries. We need more bodies because we barely have enough to perform.

George Beck

In the first quarter, we let them get a big lead. We didn't get one defensive rebound in the quarter and they had a lot of second and third chances.

Jeff Christensen

Relying on a third party is always a concern. You could all of a sudden get a McDonald's ad in the middle of your map.

Steve Tallen

It wasn't what I wanted. I'd rather leave here with a third than (leave) with nothing at all like I did last year. I guess I wrestled a lot better once I lost because it gave me the drive.

Tommy Hill

The good news is that spring is our wet season, with the months of April, May and June providing nearly a third of annual precipitation totals. So far, the long-range outlooks are showing no indicators that spring will be dry.

Pat Guinan

If I had known they were very poor at the free throw line, we would have started fouling earlier in the third quarter. The kids never rolled over after being down by more than 20.

Mike Stallings

KSU is in the third wave of institutions under new criteria. The change in accreditation criteria now requires that institutions complete a QEP.

Valerie Whittlesey

It's the third time we've been down there and it's the first time we've won all three. It was nice to get that victory on Friday and beat the defending state champions last night [Saturday].

Ron Eastman

I am humbled to be third. I am humbled by the fact that people who don't know me very well are willing to put their trust in me.

Sandra Anderson

In the huddle after the third quarter, we drew up about three different plays that we wanted to use and we executed all of them perfectly for baskets to start the final quarter. Then we were able to convert once we got to the foul line. Katie Stanley is a special player, and she hit the foul shots when we needed them.

Steve Mcfall

The statistics clearly show who the perpetrators were, since more than one third of the rioters that were arrested were Syrians and another third were Palestinians, mostly from the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine.

Samir Geagea

Ridge had his third foul in the second quarter (at Franklin County). J.C. had two in the second quarter and our backups had two on them. We played through a rough situation on the road and a lot of guys stepped up to play.

Bobby Martin

We started playing their game in the third quarter, sending them to the foul line and stopping the clock. We had to get back to what we were doing in the first half to get the win.

Jim Thyfault

(Luca) wasn't that sharp, especially after he got the wind knocked out of him. We were able to get into their bullpen, which is really important in the third (game of the series).

Anthony Johnson

It was our third game in three days and I wasn't sure if we'd have our legs, but the guys worked hard and seemed to have more energy than in the other games this weekend. We're playing for our lives right now, and every point counts. We're going to have to develop a little more consistency if we're going to make a real push (for the playoffs).

Ted Dent

We were down at half, down in the third quarter. We were just trying to pull out of our funk a little bit.

Doug Galloway

They really stepped it up in the second period. We could have laid down and let them keep their comeback coming, but we weren't going to. The third period is our best period.

Derek Damon

Josh was able to come out even on his feet today. He's best on top, so when he opened the third on top and scored, I was comfortable (with the lead).

Russ Mckenzie

I'm proud of the way I've handled myself after a slow start, coming back the way I have and learning new positions [second base, third base].

Rich Aurilia

A couple of bounces weren't going our way, but the third was one of our best periods of the year.

Kevin Cooper

The biggest news from our third quarter 2005 was the completion of the US Airways/America West merger, and obviously our third-quarter results do not yet include any of the expected positive effects from that merger.

Doug Parker

It's almost like a training session for district. The younger guys see what it's like and a lot of them walked away with a little more confidence. They realize that if they get third in a couple weeks, they're headed to state.

Mike Robinson

Microsoft is really going to focus on their partnerships throughout the entire conference. They've really courted a bunch of third-party vendors to integrate their tools into Visual Studio .NET. The list of third-party tools announced (at Tech Ed) is going to be long.

Mark Driver

During the time when so few hurricanes hit North America, we as a society framed decisions about land use, construction standards and other aspects of our lives around the shores of the Atlantic Ocean and Gulf of Mexico, ... Built into those plans was the unstated assumption that hurricanes would continue to stay away from our shores as they had for the last third of a century.

Hugh Willoughby

All the players believe we can go and finish third and challenge the Old Firm.

Garry O'connor

I thought Tyler pitched well early. But they just started to get to him in that third inning.

Mark Brookes

Wow, we barely got by a team that wasn't ready for us. Our first and fourth quarters were really good, but the second was average and our third quarter was the worst of the weekend.

Jason Lamb

That's really exciting for our team. To finish third here and fourth in cross-country, that shows we're really coming along.

Amy Hastings

We were profitable from the third year.

Nelson Gonzalez

The third quarter killed us. I thought we did a good job in the first half to stay in the ballgame. But obviously they caused us a lot of trouble in the third quarter.

Scott Severance

Our serve and service return was very weak in the first two games. But we had a lot of things that worked well. So for the third game, we focused on serving more aggressively.

Lori Bennett

For instance, in previous years, you could bear-hug players up in front of the net looking for rebounds [without getting penalized]. You can't do that now so we have to be athletic to make second and third saves.

Garth Snow

They weren't headlining. They were third down the bill.

Pete Shelley

Kim pitched well. They started to getting to her later in the game, and we had an error in the third inning. If we can get out of the inning without an error, we give up maybe a couple runs instead of five.

John Hepperle

The teams that the Rose Bowl wanted were the big name schools. Alabama was the third choice behind Duke and Princeton to play Washington.

Cynthia Brown Hale

Nelson's numbers are getting stronger, but about a third of the voters still say they don't know enough about him to form an opinion.

Clay F. Richards

The population should be aware that we have our own sets of clones out there, and that this isn't so sinister when you're talking about working in a laboratory to intentionally create a second or third embryo.

Mark Sauer

We obtained the tape from a third party. We haven't decided exactly when we're releasing it, but look for it in a few months.

David Joseph

It comes down to effort and desire. Our effort was there against Oakland. We held them to a very low shooting percentage, but we just didn't go get the ball when the shot went up. That second and third effort is what we're striving to get back at this point and time.

Leslie Crane

There are three side effects of acid. Enchanced long term memory, decreased short term memory, and I forget the third.

Timothy Leary

If we want to win games, we have to improve on third downs and in the red zone. It's as simple as that. I don't think we did that great (Sunday). We did better than last week, but it wasn't enough.

Ashley Lelie

We had a different third every weekend. It was hard to get on a roll.

Adam Enright

Intuit posted strong revenue growth and even stronger profit growth during the third quarter, ... The company's performance positions us to end the year on track to meet our stated revenue and pro forma profit goals.
