There are animals that you cannot legally own without a permit in Virginia, and frankly permitting them would only be done (in terms of) research, scientific study, or as an exhibitor or educator.

The people of West Virginia have made it clear that they will no longer tolerate a government that is out of step with the economy of this state.

Patrick Nix

Virginia is for lovers. I don't know if it's true, but it's catchy.

We are very concerned about what is going on in West Virginia right now.

We knew coming in that Virginia was a tough team ... that's their identity. But they were coming to our house and we weren't going to let anybody punk us in our house. We weren't going to let them out-tough us here.

Sam Perry

Virginia has an interesting history. We didn't ratify the 19th Amendment giving women the right to vote until 1952 - well after the amendment was ratified at the federal level giving women the right to vote.

Holly Hatcher

We had someone from Virginia Beach call alarmed that this means she can no longer take her kids to school. There's an educational process that's needed.

Walter Tejada

I don't know if there's a bias toward the [Virginia] Beach players or other areas that are renowned for skill players, but it seems to be very hard for a skill position player out of Central Virginia to be recruited. I don't understand it, really. The linemen seem to be fine but not the skill players.

Brud Bicknell

Not one piece of testimony on behalf of this measure has been able to demonstrate how amending the Virginia Constitution to prohibit marriage equality for same-sex couples, civil unions and other marriage look-alikes would somehow strengthen or protect heterosexual marriage.

Dyana Mason

We get our fuel from fuel lines from Virginia and Northern areas and that supply is healthy.

My dream is to play Wolf Trap someday. We're Northern Virginia guys, so we aspire to that.

Geoff Pemble

Northern Virginia really makes the entire state look good.

William Mezger

I know their defense and I've faced John Thornton before, ... I even faced him in college, too, when he was at West Virginia.

Melvin Fowler

Matt Munroe

I am George Rogers Clark. You have just become a prisoner of the Commonwealth of Virginia.

George Rogers Clark

We are all disappointed in our 2-4 record right now. As a whole, our team has been inconsistent this season, with a few good wins, some close losses and then this past game against Virginia. But even in the losses, we have seen some great things. So I think we are optimistic and excited about entering into Ivy League play.

Lauren Vance

These Web sites allege that the woman in the video is Miss West Virginia, but it's not. Some sites even had her pageant picture next to the video.

Bob Kane

She would have to go to the Children's Hospital in [Northern Virginia] every two weeks, then she would come back to school. The whole time she was keeping up her grades. She would never skip class. If she got sick during class, she would excuse herself momentarily, take care of the problem and go right back. She was such a trooper through it all.

Leann Schmidt

In Montana, West Virginia, and the rest of the United States, coal is definitely the electricity source of the foreseeable future.

Ben Lieberman

The Board of Architectural Review is very concerned with preserving the essence of Old Town and other historic areas, yet here comes Virginia Power destroying one of our most precious assets, the natural beauty of our tree lines streets. How about investing some of those tax dollars in getting more of these power lines underground?

Philip Matyas

American democracy was born of no theorist's dream; it was not carried in the Susan Constant to Virginia, nor in the Mayflower to Plymouth. It came stark and strong and full of life out of the American forest, and it gained new strength each time it touched a new frontier.

Frederick Jackson Turner

We can see West Virginia from where we are standing, and (gambling machines) are legal over there, ... Why not go over there if you're going to open a shop with gaming machines.

Barry Carpenter

That showed me that they really wanted me. A friend of mine called me today and asked me who my top five was. Virginia was the only school that I could tell him.

Peter Lalich

This was on par with a space launch today. This was on par with someone going to the moon. It was the cutting edge of technology. The fact that it was done here, in the backwaters of (what was then) Virginia, is really interesting.

Jay Hurley

They just do not want anybody from organized labor to take a high-profile position - to have a pedestal to speak from about the wrongs that workers face across Virginia and across the country.

George Waksmunski

Christmas Eve, 1955, Benny Profane, wearing black levis, suede jacket, sneaker and big cowboy hat, happened to pass through Norfolk, Virginia.

Thomas Pynchon

People won't remember the small little losing streak that we had. They wouldn't think that the game we had against Virginia Tech was a fluke. I think it would put an exclamation point on the whole season and be a good way to start the new one.

Willie Reid

Ultimately, we didn't end up getting some breaks we needed to get an upset. Virginia has a great team and we tried to take it to them. ? We played hard. They played hard.

We're not coming into Virginia to be a one-note Johnny.

Russell Potts

This one in Huntington just came up because we couldn't do it here (Charleston). Marshall really didn't officially invite us like the other two universities.

We love to come to Huntington, and that auditorium is a great space.

Larry Groce

I want to thank my assistant coach Virginia Slicker for being there this season, and I want to thank the All Saints family, the administration and the staff for believing in us.

Paul Grant

There is a lot of interest in coyote hunting in West Virginia. However, the majority of our hunters are unfamiliar with the techniques and regulations that are involved. Because of this lack of knowledge, DNR will be hosting these seminars to provide our hunters a chance to meet firsthand with experts on coyotes and coyote hunting, which will ultimately allow our hunters to become more successful.

Frank Jezioro

I think we're going to play well. ... I just don't know if that's going to be good enough. We won our conference, and they won [the West Virginia Intercollegiate Athletic Conference] so you know these teams belong here.

Greg Walcavich

We're trying redefine Virginia Beach more as a luxury destination.

Richard Brooks

Jefferson wasn't really a primary author of the First Amendment. But Jefferson was the author of the Virginia Statute for Religious Freedom, which is seen as kind of a precursor of the First Amendment. It was Jefferson's protégé, James Madison, who helped draft the First Amendment. So the metaphor is apt and it is important.

Rob Boston

The N.C. State game gives our fan base a marquee home game in September against a team from the ACC. We're also very pleased with the addition of Florida and Virginia Tech to our schedule, two of the top programs in the nation.

The top eight states on our list are Minnesota, Colorado, Texas, Arizona, Indiana, Virginia, Alabama, and Utah.

John Kramer

Ted Strickland

Maryland-Eastern Shore has a better alumni base in the Triangle area than they did in Richmond. Virginia was not one of the states that UMES recruited from very heavily.

Nelson Townsend

The state of Virginia is getting the word out. Not in our state. Not to our children.

Clint Van Zandt

West Virginia has two super-caliber guys on offense, and they came out ready to roll tonight. But we fought back, and I think a game like this says more about our team than if we had won the game in a blowout.

Russ Tanner

Virginia will continue to get out of the state facility business. This is the kind of setting that will replace that.

Chuck Hall

Virginia needs to have a team. All major cities have teams.

Christopher Smith

I'm just not trying to think about it as my last meet as a Virginia swimmer. After it's all over, I'll think of that. All the hard work we've done, I'm just going to go and have fun and swim fast.

Fran Crippen

The statute appears to cover the conduct of third parties and not pregnant mothers. If you compare statutes from other places, they read significantly different. They clearly would govern the conduct of a pregnant person, but this is not at all clear in Virginia.

Kevin Martingayle

I learned my lesson. I probably got one of the fastest tickets in Virginia. I was doing 161 in a 55.

Justin Williams

[That doesn't sound like a bad course of action for the Presidents Cup, either. Sooner or later it will have to leave the snug confines of Virginia and be contested on the home ground of one of the International team's players. But that will take time.] Tradition is not generated overnight, ... For only the second playing of this event, this was a very big step forward.

Nick Price

I was really disappointed. We don't see football like that (in the Big 12). Those kids were just completely out of control. ... Louisville wasn't as bad. Virginia Tech was brutal.

Steve Usecheck

It's really an attack on all Virginia families. Even the proponents of the bill recognized there were all these exceptions and generalities.

Dyana Mason

He's a serious scholar, and he has been an excellent director in Virginia. I think he will be very effective, both within the Getty and in the broader community.

Jeremy Strick

I grew up as a fairly puritanical, Protestant, football-playing boy in Virginia. I don't know that I've changed very much.

Warren Beatty

I think that's the biggest difference from Florida. With Chris Leak he didn't want to run the ball, but the quarterback from West Virginia, he wants to run the ball.

Demario Minter

It is an absolute honor and privilege to be selected as the head football coach at Virginia Military Institute. I accept the challenge to elevate the football program to the VMI standard of excellence. I am eager to meet the team and the VMI family.

Jim Reid

The kids go out to Virginia Tech and they're not used to the springiness of the (high banked turns).

Joe Curcio

When I was 2, my mother took me on a trip to Monticello, Virginia, ... I can't remember the trip, but I'm certain it inspired me.

Barbara Frye

This will help kids understand the importance of bridge construction, cost and that West Virginia leads the nation in bridge design and bridge inspection. And it's something we could all be proud of.

Terri Lively

If that was true, we wouldn't see any death sentences coming out of Texas — unanimous jury required. We wouldn't see any death sentences coming out of California, out of Virginia, out of Georgia, where unanimous juries are required.

Larry Spalding

Playing for Coach Lauro really made you feel prepared for college. That's a scary feeling when you're a 17-year-old kid leaving New Castle to go to Virginia Tech, but you just knew you were prepared because he worked you so hard you were going to survive that.

John Latina

A year ago, I don't know if Stephen could have served that match out. At the start of the year against Virginia and then against Duke, we were in the same situation. Stephen was the last guy on the court but couldn't finish it. Now, he's done it twice in two days with the match on the line. That's a big step.

Bob Bayliss

He's already got offers from West Virginia, Rutgers, Syracuse, Connecticut and North Carolina. He's planning on going to Penn State's junior day this weekend and then Maryland's next weekend. I wouldn't be surprised if he came back from both of them with offers.

Sean O'connor

He's coming to Nassau and he's going to get a second chance. This is the right place for second chances. He needs 17 credits between the spring and the summer to be eligible to play football for us. He said he wants to move forward academically and I thought he was sincere. He didn't have an attitude like he was doing me a favor. He'll come in with a clean slate and put West Virginia behind him.

John Anselmo

We're playing Virginia lacrosse right now and are not worried too much about what the other teams are going to do. If we play our game, I think a lot of teams will struggle to adapt to the way we play.

Matt Poskay

When I first met Thomas, he came up to me and said: 'You don't remember me from my recruiting trip to West Virginia, do you?' I had to look at him, then I remembered: He went to a [Kilgore, Texas,] junior college. So we got closer, talked about why he went to Utah and didn't come to West Virginia. We were getting closer and closer. Then, all of the sudden, that next weekend, he was gone.

Rasheed Marshall

In West Virginia, we're all family. We know how firefighters and policemen honor their own and we feel our miners deserve to be honored in a similar way.

Ginger Baker

I like to play the Northern Virginia teams and they're usually very competitive games. I commend the coaches who want to play these games. Coach Lake is doing the right thing. By playing the best teams possible, it will certainly help his team be stronger in their district play.

Stu Vetter

We have a half a million people visiting Virginia wine country annually. Seventy-five percent of those people are local.

Tonya Rideout

When I went up there, I just fell in love with the coaching staff. They've been awesome, really. The system they run is a lot of what they did at West Virginia, which fits the way I play. It fits perfectly.

Josh Daniel

That's what eventually pushed North Carolina over the divide. It gave Governor Easley an argument: Why should our people be paying for schools in Virginia, Georgia, Tennessee and South Carolina?

Ferrell Guillory

We just went back and practiced after the Virginia Tech game and worked on some of the mistakes that we made in running our inside zones and stuff like that. Cleaned up a little blocking and stuff that we might have messed up in the first game.

Darrell Blackman

I love being home again. WVU (West Virginia) and Marshall definitely are in the running (for college). When it's time, I'll sit down and make sure I make the right decision.

O.j. Mayo

There's no silver bullet to getting a Northern Virginia vote. They've proven to be so diverse and independent. You've got to walk through a lot of land mines. The key is going to be to get your base [of supporters] to come out in full force rather than to appeal to everybody on every issue.

Jim Dornan

The ballistics evidence has conclusively linked the shooting yesterday in Spotsylvania County to the other shootings in Virginia, D.C. and Maryland.

Howard Smith

The idea of leasing federal waters off the coast of Virginia comes in response to discussion in the state's legislature about the potential of energy development off its coast. However, no offshore development will occur off Virginia unless the state's congressional delegation works to lift the moratorium.

Johnnie Burton

To the rest of the state, Northern Virginia is a single-cell amoeba. Those of us in Northern Virginia see its individual parts. It's far more diverse than the rest of the commonwealth thinks of us.

Brian J. Moran

Even though Missouri does not have mining issues identical to West Virginia, we feel it's imperative that we do everything in our power to ensure the safety of Missouri miners. The intent of the additional consultations is to get miners to work safer and smarter.

Allen Dillingham

By next year, the Senate's budget would cut the $1,246 per Virginia student higher education funding deficit in half, bringing it down to just $641 per student. That's exciting progress.

Jesse Ferguson

I wasn't in the picture because they got mad at me, and they took the picture when I went to Virginia.

Bettye Bullock

I take the Virginia Tech approach where the head coach handles the special teams all the assistants pitch in and help.

Daniel Sullivan

We expect 12 to 14 winners a year in Virginia.

Jill Vaughan

The Confederacy's two most famous generals from Virginia were both opposed to slavery, and Jackson himself even disregarded state law in his day to teach slaves to read.

Brandon Dorsey

It's a celebration of literature from Kentucky, Ohio and West Virginia. It will feature authors, panels, workshops and various programs for children.

Josephine Fidler

He is working very hard -- he and his staff -- to impose their will on the culture of wrestling at Virginia Tech. And it is occurring. Slowly.

Jon Jaudon

North Carolinians should be very concerned about what is going on with (regard to) Virginia.

Michael Town

Truthfully, wrestling in northern Virginia is decent. The east already has the advantage in wrestling terms. It gets kind of stale after a while being in the same area.

Bryan Hazard

In campaigns we all know about radio, TV and direct mail. And we call those 'vehicles' for getting a message out, ... Well, the Kilgore car is literally another vehicle to use in getting our message of honest reform out to the people of Virginia. This vehicle just happens to travel at 200 miles per hour.

Jerry Kilgore

Level land is a rare commodity in the steep slopes of southern West Virginia.

Bill Raney

On the bright side, I love Internet hotspots. I can work from anywhere in the country. ... I've been in situations where I've been willing to pay. There aren't many places like that in West Virginia. I think they exist, but I'm not sure how prolific they are.

Keith Morgan

That doesn't take away the pain of this loss, but they have established our program. They've done so much to renew interest in Virginia basketball.

Rich Odell

A man's home is his castle. Taking it from him in order to give it to the politically powerful is wrong and unfair. It's imperative that Virginia, the home of Thomas Jefferson and George Mason, secure the rights of all property owners.

Horace Cooper

It gives us an opportunity to see if there's a chance that something could be done off the coast of Virginia. If we don't stick a study of Virginia in the plan, then we don't get the opportunity to look at Virginia at all.

Gary Strasburg

We know from social research that traditional family structure is the best place that children can possibly be raised, So, yeah, I want my child to grow up in a Virginia that continues to put mom and dad as the model and holds them up and says, ultimately, what we want to see happen -- this is what we as a government want to protect and promote.

Victoria Cobb

It's hard to practice not turning the ball over. If we turn the ball over against Virginia Union, they're going to make us pay.

Parker Laketa

They come from Wheelersburg, from Jackson. They come from over in Kentucky and West Virginia. A year or two ago we had a couple of tour buses from some place down in Kentucky.

Bob Blankenship

I didn't even think that Brent was going to take his visit there. His mom visited Virginia with him last weekend and they fell in love with it ... the community, the school, the atmosphere, the coaches and players.

Rick Pennypacker

We knew we were getting close to moving from a class 3 to a class 2 county in West Virginia. And that's determined by the gross assessed evaluation in the county.

Greg Stewart

Colorado is still No. 1, although you have Virginia nipping at your heels.

Matthew Kazmierczak

All three heroes need to be carried into the future as part of our Virginia culture. It's up to the good people of Virginia to make it so.

James Bowden

He seems to have an affinity for West Virginia, and West Virginia has returned that affinity.

Robert Rupp

Texas has a [reciprocity] agreement, and other states such as Maryland, Louisiana, Virginia and Florida are working on it.

Rep. Amanda Aguirre

West Virginia wrestling will have a big void. It will be something to not see him in the corner. There's a lot of history going out the door with him. He's a tremendous person and has had a tremendous impact on West Virginia wrestling.

Larry Shaw

This year's tragic mine accidents in West Virginia require immediate action to put in place additional safety requirements to help miners successfully evacuate a mine when an emergency occurs. MSHA is moving forward on every front to improve protections for miners' safety and health.

David G. Dye

You can't give up 21 goals and expect to win a lacrosse game. Not against the University of Virginia.

John Haus

That was clearly shown in the Virginia Tech game. This game is going to come down to execution. When you have three weeks to prepare for a team, they're going to be ready for you and we're going to be ready for them.

Brad Butler

Those who pick Fairfax are likely from Virginia. An applicant, say, from California doesn't know Fairfax from Richmond.

Jim Messmer

I mean, I never thought that Culpeper, Virginia - that I was going to love it this much. It has so many great characteristics about it.

Liza Tichenor

Virginia gives you a quick date to push you into court.

Michael Wolfe

The cost of living is so high in Northern Virginia.

Lee Cobb

Right here, in this community, 10 miles from Capitol Hill, in the streets of Northern Virginia, American citizens allegedly met and plotted and recruited for violent jihad.

Paul Mcnulty

Part of me wanted to say, 'It wasn't yours, it was mine.' But it's part of that iconic relationship. I was afraid I was going to lose my mind, like Virginia Woolf. The heart can break -- it's quite a resilient muscle -- but I don't know about the mind. It seems to be a creature of another sort.

Cris Williamson

The Virginia Internet Policy Act ... is an information-age blueprint ... the first comprehensive Internet policy in the United States.

James Gilmore

This is the complete reverse of the homogenous white makeup of West Virginia. Nine out of 10 of the evacuees are black.

Joe Thornton

We also notified the larger trucking firms in Ohio, West Virginia and Maryland of the closure.

Jeff Breen

Sales representatives need to be better educated and better informed. In West Virginia they license beauticians, massage therapists and barbers, but not drugs sales reps.

Dan Foster

I was the legal counsel in the effort to amend the Virginia Constitution to give Virginians the right to hunt and fish constitutionally, and we are one of the few states in the country to protect that right.

Tim Kaine

One in eight people you know in Virginia have signs of kidney disease ranging from the earliest stages to the very advanced. Unfortunately, many didn't know they had a problem until it had advanced too for.

David Myers

Getting swept at Virginia, that's not a good thing. After (that) weekend, we kind of took it upon ourselves not to let it happen again. It worked out for us in the long run.

Josh Cribb

We are a bit worried that this bill will pre-empt some tough anti-spam laws in states like California, Washington and Virginia.

John Mozena

Most of Virginia did well until August. Then, the hurricane, a wet fall and lackluster foliage, and visitation dropped.

John Shaffer

Virginia played extremely well and we made a bunch of early season mistakes. We will work on those mistakes in practice to get ready for Harvard next weekend.

Lars Tiffany

It was to show the drivers what they're missing in Virginia.

Tom Capozzi

At this time, we are asking companies to rededicate themselves and their miners and their operations to signify the enduring commitment to protecting miners in West Virginia by participating in the stand-down for safety. We will take an active approach to accident reduction.

Bob Friend

You name the state or the drug company, and they will all have representatives there. We're the only group from West Virginia that is going. We might be small potatoes compared to others, but we think our presence will be felt.

Jerry Mcdonald

The leading cause of forest fires in Virginia is carelessness. An unattended fire, a discarded cigarette or a single match can ignite the dry fuels that are so prevalent in the early spring. Add a few days of dry, windy conditions and an escaped wildfire can quickly turn into a raging blaze.

Fred Turck

Families in central Virginia are sick and tired of Representative Goode putting lobbyists and the special interests ahead of their interests.

Kate Bedingfield

In a few years we hope to visit China on New Year's. This year, I am going to get some red paper and write on it. Next year I will go to northern Virginia and buy some decorations.

Junyi Eng

Our voters, going into the midterm elections, are mobilized and energized; theirs are despondent, ... Virginia is a bright, bright red state - shining red.

Rahm Emanuel

We played really well against Villanova and Georgetown. We knew the West Virginia match was going to be close. The bounces just went their way.

Ben Bucca

It's been our experience in Texas and Virginia that competition results in lower prices. It's certainly a restraint on increases.

John Hendricks

I represent thousands of lobbyists in my district [in the Virginia suburbs of Washington] so I am not going to say anything negative about them. But I read that Chevron spent millions of dollars lobbying on this issue and, thus, saved themselves a lot of money in the purchase of the company.

James Moran

You saw the leader that Jay Cutler was; he took that whole possession in his hands. He kind of reminded me of Bryan Randall of Virginia Tech when he did that to us last year. We can't let that happen; we can't let one person change the whole game.

Josh Gattis

We've done what we set out to do and won all our dual meets and the Virginia Duals. But starting the Big Ten is a whole new season and a challenging one at that with virtually every team ranked.

Duane Goldman

It's definitely not good for us. All we can do is go out and get a win against West Virginia and hope for a break. It's even bigger now. If we don't win that game, I don't know what's going to happen. We win that game, we give ourselves a chance.

Connor Barwin

It is clear that if British lawyers resident in the U.K. cannot join the California Bar, they are more likely to direct clients to parts of the U.S. with which they are familiar -- that is, where they have been admitted to practice (e.g., New York, Virginia, Washington state or Oregon).

Martin Uden

My comparison would be, if a team like team Virginia had to play without Sean Singletary and J.R. Reynolds, what would their answers be? That's where we sat tonight going into this game.

Mike Gillian

We haven't decided yet what states to open locations, but we are looking in Virginia.

Michael Howe

We were trying to think after the game Sarah may have accounted for all but two of our points with assists or whatever. If she isn't the best player in the state (of West Virginia), then I don't know who is.

Dick Wildt

I said a few years ago when I didn't go to West Virginia that the greatest resource of this city is the people and I mean that. It was a good run.

Bob Huggins

It's not my Virginia or your Virginia. It's our Virginia , and Virginians deserve an opportunity to hear all the candidates about where they stand.

Russ Potts

Overall it was a pretty good weekend for us but I really expected us to get the win over Virginia. There were about three more matches that we should have won but that's how it goes sometimes. You can't give up back points like we did late in those matches.

Joel Greenlee

Lee-Jackson Day does not receive equal treatment in Virginia with Martin Luther King Jr. Day. You will not see much in the way of official observances of it from the state level, although you will likely see many state-sponsored services from state colleges and agencies for Martin Luther King Jr. Day. You will see most of your local banks open on Friday, but they will be closed Monday.

Brandon Dorsey

No other place I'd rather do it than at Virginia Tech.

Adam Linkenauger

I want to give helpful advice as far as a career in the industry. I'm looking forward to being back in Woodbridge. Virginia can be described as 'the heartland,' and there's a lot of talk in the industry whether people in 'America proper' are being served by or talked down to by Hollywood.

John Romano

People outside of Virginia are not as emphatically enthusiastic about the anniversary as those inside Virginia are. It doesn't have the same degree of meaning for them as it would for Virginians.

Judy Randall

I actually don't see it happening anytime soon. Virginia, for better or for worse, likes its traditions.

Quentin Kidd

Virginia got involved in the quilt project because of her cousin Yvonne Meyer (quilter of #26). She picked the piano company because she liked the piano and she wanted to design a motif around the company.

Our schedule allows us to play our traditional local rivals, as well as some national powers, before we get into the conference schedule, ... We travel to Duke and Virginia Tech, play a full slate at the Garden and play in the Holiday Festival. This will give St. John's fans a great opportunity to follow our team, which features a lot of new faces this year.

Norm Roberts

We really think land use is a twin crisis with transportation here in Northern Virginia.

Deborah Reyher

Allison started doing pageants because she came from a single-parent home and virtually had no money. Her goal was just to get scholarships to help pay for schooling. She is a typical West Virginia average person. But she has been taken advantage of.

Lavinia Mann Cummings

Hermantown is definitely the favorite and Virginia is capable of beating anybody.

Mark Decenzo

One out of three children born in West Virginia today will have diabetes by the time they grow up. That's a devastating statistic and not acceptable.

Nidia Henderson

It is time for Virginia to step up to the plate and protect private property rights from government abuse.

Bill Cleveland

No, Virginia, there is no Auntie Mame, she is a distillation and a moonbeam and nothing more.

Patrick Dennis

People who really love Virginia, Independents, Republicans and Democrats have stepped up to support the principles I am fighting for.

Russell Potts

We're taking the whole thing — their line and that defense — as a challenge. We're going to do what Virginia Tech does. We're going to pound the ball at them. If it breaks, it breaks.

Jason Murphy

I think there's a lot of personal interest in Mr. McCloy getting back to West Virginia.

Dr. Richard Shannon

We don't know a lot about West Virginia. We have restarted that series. Missouri, however, has done well in the Big 12 and beat us last year 5-2. So, we have got a chance for some payback for that loss. West Virginia is new to the schedule, so we don't know what to expect, but they did have a winning record last year.

Chuck Merzbacher

I think it is a fine line. Again, you have to look at the assets we have that are in a lot of ways much closer to Virginia Beach and Norfolk than some of the western parts of Hampton Roads in consideration. It might provide the advantage of getting Toyota here in the expanded Hampton Roads region. It's one more good alternative.

Ray White

You build a lead and you get comfortable with it, or you turn right around and get flat footed. It almost looked like they (PHCC) want to play them (Virginia Tech) into the game. We can't play 15 minutes each half.

Jay Joyce

Coach Carey really has the program going in the right direction and has done well in the past few seasons. I'm looking forward to being apart of that success. I'm also very excited to be from West Virginia and play for the state's flagship institution. It should be a great experience for me.

Brittany Holestine

We were very disappointed in the way our special teams played. Those things got us off on the wrong foot and got Virginia State off on a high note, and we never recovered.

Pete Adrian

On or about July 12, 2003, Libby flew with the Vice President and others to and from Norfolk, Virginia on Air Force Two. On his return trip, Libby discussed with other officials aboard the plane what Libby should say in response to certain pending media inquiries, including questions from Time reporter Matthew Cooper.

John Nichols

Max really liked Virginia because they were the first to recruit him, the first to offer him [a scholarship]. I believe one of the reasons he committed was that they wanted him as a running back.

Don Hansen

I fully expect to be able to complete one more campaign goal - and that is to proudly report that signs have been erected as you enter our great state that say 'Welcome to Wild, Wonderful West Virginia: Open for Business!'

Joe Manchin Iii

Virginia is the information technology state in the United States, ... Virginia is leading the information revolution as the Internet capital of the world. Half of the world's Internet traffic passes through Virginia.

James Gilmore

In 1984, I invited members of the Virginia Landmarks Commission to my home on the night of a City Council meeting.

Clara Lambeth

There are 21 stops in the Denny's Professional Bowlers Tour, and one of them is here. The top 64 players in the world will be bowling in Parkersburg in the West Virginia Classic, and the final rounds will be televised live on ESPN.

John Fazio

I think I realized around hole 14 that Virginia wasn't going to mess up. She was playing steady; she was playing safe. I started playing for second (place) around there.

Ashley Knoll

We haven't sold out tickets as quickly since we were in one of the national championship games. Our fans certainly were on a roller coaster this year. We were 6-0 at one time, then there were three losses in a row and everyone was ready to take arsenic. Then we beat Virginia Tech and everyone began feeling good again.

Patrick Martin

Mark Warner has a history of flip-flopping on taxes. Despite a campaign promise not to raise taxes, while governor of Virginia he supported raising billions of dollars in taxes time and time again.

Cullen Sheehan

Nobody of importance has spoken to me yet. It's not Virginia. She was nice and respectful. Her staff was rude, disrespectful—all we wanted was some information to keep us calm.

Patricia Johnson

This meet is really big, they cut off entries at 800 athletes and there were athletes here from Virginia and South Carolina also. There was a huge contingent here from Virginia.

Robert Mcgimpsey

For the first time since I've been here. It feels great. We'll take it right now, but we've got to get ready for Virginia.

Shawan Robinson

I would like to believe it _ and that's the way it should be, but there's some politics involved, ... Come on, let's be realistic. If there wasn't, do you think Virginia would fare as well as they're doing this week? No, it's because (Virginia Sen.) John Warner is chairman of the Senate Armed Services Committee.

Phil Gingrey

About 400 cookbooks have been sold locally as well as to people in West Virginia and Maryland.
