I've had a great run, I've done what I can do and it's time to move on. I would have liked to have gone out a little higher, just for these kids. I would have loved for Andrew Wood to repeat, and Tyler Perry, and for Matt Dunbar to have won a state championship.

Ryan Sharkey

There are more projects looming. Certainly the activity is there, and our customers are healthier than they have been. The wood composite business continues to do well for us.

It helped out a lot. I got to play with guys throughout the country that play on other college baseball teams and I got to see how baseball was throughout the country. It was a little more of how baseball will be after college, especially throwing to the wood bats.

Bernard Robert

We're hopeful it won't climb much more than that (10 percent). The reality is we're all looking at the price per gallon of gasoline and heating oil, and even cord wood, and we're seeing prices that are volatile and I don't think anybody can accurately predict what we'll be paying for these commodities in two weeks, let alone two months.

Martin Murray

Debbie Stroman

Coming off that loss to Wood, we didn't want to lose again.

Kristen Donofry

One of the problems with bad history is that when it's repeated often enough, then it becomes the story. He never says here's where he got this or that. We don't know if this is something told by a member of his family, or some yarn he heard hanging around Town Hall or over the wood stove.

Susan Richardson

I would have been glad to have lived under my wood side, and to have kept a flock of sheep, rather than to have undertaken this government.

Denell Stosio

I hit a 3-wood into the left rough, then I hit a dead-cold shank with my first iron of the day. I thought that wasn't a very good omen.

Briny Baird

Ethan is awesome. The guy is just automatic. He gives you all the confidence in the world to just know the ball is coming where it needs to be, and you can just get into the flow of the kick. You see what happens to some teams when mishaps occur, and, knock on wood, we don't have them around here.

Tom Tupa

We hit the ball on the nose. Give them credit, they made the plays and Wood pitched really well.

Debbie Holcombe

The Wood is a better spot. The timing is better for us. We have a little extra time to get him ready for the Derby. I do like the extra week.

Tom Albertrani

Maybe I'll get a big long plank of wood and use plastic bags to cover it with and use it as a dam in front of my garage door. Hopefully that will work.

Bob Brooks

Maybe we need to fall on the common-sense side of protecting these species, but continue harvesting wood products we all use and enjoy. We've got to be able to do both -- protect water quality and species, as well as harvest trees.

John Hancock

I knew Brad Wood could play. We try to get him the ball the best we can. He's quick and he's fast, and he can use his speed as a weapon. When he does get the ball, he tends to catch it and make plays.

Bruce Divaccaro

The Wood Brothers' car and ours are the only one-car teams in the top 25 (in points), and I'm very confident that we'll be able to stay there. It's not about how many cars you field that determines where you'll finish, it's how well prepared each of those cars are, and I believe we're as well prepared as most.

Dante Alighieri

A small cooling unit with inexpensive racking costs about $1,500 for a 6-foot by 6-foot, 500-bottle wine cellar. But the sky is the limit if money is no problem. There are wine cellars . . . in the $100,000-plus range. Whatever you build, plan on spending $3 to $5 per bottle of wine for racking with a quality wood.

Craig Allen

Wood is dirty and nasty. I didn't want to mess with it in the house.

Rob Rowlson

He loves to go North and South and lay the wood on you. It's very rare that you see him taking a hit. When he is hit, someone really brought the noise.

Mark Fischer

There is nothing but water in the holy pools. I know, I have been swimming there. All the gods sculpted of wood or ivory can't say a word. I know, I have been crying out to them. The Sacred Books of the East are nothing but words. I looked through their covers one day sideways. What Kabir talks of is only what he has lived through. If you have not lived through something, it is not true.

K. Ashraful Kabir

The girls maintained their composure and that made the difference. I was very proud of Kyler and Wood as they led the way with scores of 41 and 42. We had help from Courtney Hinen and Ellen Hazelet with scores of 48 and 49.

Jim Thompson

You don't hear much wood do you?

Mickey Brantley

One lady extended hers out 6 inches to a foot so she could hang a bird feeder on it. But just make sure (the rung) is long enough to nail into it one inch from the end. If you are too close to the end, the wood can split.

Martin Murray

This is no less true of steel and concrete [than of wood, brick and stone]. We must remember that everything depends on how we use a material, not on the material itself....New materials are not necessarily superior. Each material is only what we make it.

Ludwig Mies Van Der Rohe

Well tended garden is better than a neglected wood lot.

Dixie Lee Ray

That's when I usually try to get caught up on my wood products.

Mike Shadley

I've always written about 'My girlfriend did this and here's how I feel about it,' or 'I had a fight with this person. None of these songs are about those things. I pushed a lot of personal limits, and Holly Wood helps navigate through the themes of love and evil that are on this album.

Ryan Key

Last year was a fluke. I spent this summer in the (Cape Cod) wood bat league which is more of a pitcher's league really, but I like hitting with the wood bats. It makes you center the ball and helps your swing.

Jake Dugger

I did talk to somebody one time who said he was Doug Wood.

Don Robinson

From time to time, people are going to smell and see smoke. But there is one thing to remember: Whenever you smell wood smoke, it means that good land management - good stewardship - is going on in the forest.

Les Paul

Jesse Wood got a win for us. He's been very consistent and he's wrestled very well. And Jason battled to get a win. Overall, we just didn't compete very well. We are better than what we showed tonight.

Pat Timm

Harder woods take different chains and longer to do. I don't like there to be any big splits or bugs in the wood, either.

Rick Sardou

I felt confident. I wanted to go stick side and get good wood on it, but I just didn't beat him.

Maura Spiellmann

As soon as this wood is gone, the water here will rise rapidly again.

Franz Bachmann

It will probably take about $15 million to build a facility. It'll require public-private partnerships, also, because so much of the wood comes from public land.

They're seen in the industry as dried-up pieces of wood filled with gasoline.

Mckeel Hagerty

He was working under the house, which had been raised up on a hydraulic bottle jack. It appeared that he had been under the wood frame house making repairs and was half out when the jack fell over. It probably happened about an hour before he was found.

The lines are all back up: you get around. All that wood is still sitting in the woods. I don't know what they'll do with it.

Debbie Davis

Boston Scientific still has much 'wood to chop' regarding the recovery of the company's cardiac rhythm management business...That said, we believe earnings power for businesses remain substantial.

Glenn Reicin

Foote is a very interesting kid. His idea of fun on a Saturday is digging a ditch, cutting down trees and splitting wood. He's a quiet kid, but we have to be careful with him at practice because he'll hurt himself with his conditioning. He's a team leader.

Dan Nault

Barns are for sale on the Internet. The wood is sought after now.

Lu Donnelly

There's nothing there, not even any wood. It looks as though nothing ever was there.

Julian Lennon

I used a scroll saw for cutting out the legs and the edges for the top of the bench, and a table saw to cut the wood into smaller pieces. Then I used a belt sander to sand it down.

Marla Sacks

To me, it's all about the recruitment of your players. You've got to have the pitching, and with these wood bats, it's about speed and a pressure-type of offense.

Mike Garcia

He cut wood that weekend and delivered it to the man's house so he could have heat.

Denny Powell

Coach Wood just kept telling us we needed one more stop. We didn't play as well as we wanted, but we played with heart, and that bailed us out.

Melissa Johnson

Neither one of us had swept a chimney, but we became August West Registered Certified Chimney Sweeps. With the demand for wood appliances going through the roof, we maximize the performance of the system. Now we wish we could keep up with the demand. We're now scheduling out three weeks.

Rich Mcveigh

The first time I put two pieces of wood together with hammer and nail, I knew I wanted to work with wood.

Ray O'connor

I've seen devastation from earthquakes to hurricanes to tornadoes, (but) I've never even imagined destruction like is there in Louisiana and Mississippi, ... This storm was 90,000 square miles and entire cities (and) neighborhoods, one after the other, had been reduced to nothing more than kindling wood.

Rod Parsley

Heap on more wood - the wind is chill; But let it whistle as it will, We'll keep our Christmas merry still.

Remember, a chip on the shoulder is a sure sign of wood higher up.

Brigham Young

We use some draw knifes, where you can actually put the wooden block between your legs and you have a set of draw knifes and they will dig into the wood and pull up. We use some hand routers, we also have electric routers, but a lot of it is specialty hand tools, they're wood working tools that you actually get in there and chisel away some of the wood.

Ken Heide

Hopefully we can show what he's got in the Wood. This should be unbelievable. He is definitely ready. He has already ridden at some high levels. One thing he really strives on as a rider, he's got ice water in his veins. I always tell him he is a Michael Jordan type. He always rides his race. He never gets nervous.

Jason Beides

He's in good form and, touch wood, we've had no problems as all his muscular problems are now behind him.

Michael Hourigan

Alaskans have a tradition of relying on firewood as a heating fuel of last resort, and with the current high prices of fuel oil we want to help make fire-killed wood from our Interior forests available for firewood.

Dean Brown

While plantation forests are an extremely valuable resource and will undoubtedly supply an increasing portion of wood and fiber needs in the future, they should not be considered a substitute for the region's dwindling natural forests. During the past five years, the region lost more than 14.8 million acres of natural forests.

Over the river and through the wood, To grandfather's house we go; The horse knows the way To carry the sleigh, Through the white and drifted snow.

Howard Hampton

I need to learn more tactics, cranking, Carolina rigging and other things. American lakes are much bigger than the lakes in Japan. The lakes here take a lot of time to learn. They have a lot of different kinds of structure, cover and wood, stuff that doesn't exist there. There, you just fish deep structure.

Shinichi Fukae

[The Ramseys' attorney, Lin Wood, told reporters that Monday afternoon's session had been] a waste of time. ... overzealous, obsessed special prosecutor from Pennsylvania who long ago lost all objectivity and has no interest in justice.

By his example fired -- inclined To noble emulation, The country humbly was resigned To Leonard's resig.

Ambrose Bierce

With a conventional hand saw, the faster and harder you push, the more the saw digs into the wood and jams. With our saw, the harder you pull, the faster it cuts. It is possible to cut through a 4-inch diameter branch in 12 seconds or less.

Larry Deck

The raw wood of a sawed off tree was turned, stripped, and varnished into a traveling violin that could only squeal in carnival colors.

Betty Huf

I thought, 'A serious instrument has to be made of wood, varnished, treated.' .

Paul Rosenthal

GREAT, adj. 'I'm great,' the Lion said -- 'I reign The monarch of the wood and plain!' The Elephant replied: 'I'm great -- No quadruped can match my weight!' 'I'm great -- no animal has half So long a neck!' said the Giraffe. 'I'm great,' the Kangaroo said -- 'see My femoral muscularity!' The 'Possum said: 'I'm great -- behold, .

Ambrose Bierce

You can take organic materials — leather, steel, wood and fabrics — and mix them in the right way. It's fun to go from something simple to something classic to something seasonal. It shows people the different aspects of who you are.

Amanda Pays

A lot of snake bites occur purely out of reaction. If someone picks up a rock or piece of wood a snake is laying under, the snake could strike out of defense.

Fred Rainwater

We've got a lot of talent here that can do a lot of things with that part of the business, ... One thing that always has amazed me ... is that they can take a piece of resin, and they can finish it to the point where you can't tell if it's a piece of wood or a piece of wrought iron. You can't tell the difference.

Rick Lane

Everywhere I go, the scouts all come up to me and rave about this kid, Wood. They say the ball jumps off his bat and he has nice soft hands at shortstop. They can't stop talking about him.

Preston Gomez

The pellets take the color of the wood that they're eating. They're in a very distinct little pile, like gritty sand.

Jim Berry

Her honesty as an actress really comes across. It's shocking how truthful she can be. So many young actresses are geared toward a teen audience, but Evan Rachel Wood draws the critics and fans of the art of acting.

Philip Berk

If installed properly, it disperses the smoke very efficiently. It's the same as any other wood heating equipment.

Rodney Tollefson

Bob [Sachs] is not the only client who wants a more finished look. People from out of state still see the 'Old West,' mining-camp look as new and exciting, but most don't want splinters [from unfinished wood] in their houses. The taste is more grown-up.

John Shirley

My dad is just as comfortable there with a wood chipper in his hand as he is with a bill in his hands in the Senate.

Tom Harrison

They'd use wood rather than aluminum bats, so you'd get a better idea of what to expect. The first thing a minor-league pro will do to a college hitter is to come inside. The pitchers tried, Troy made the adjustments.

Bob Fontaine Jr

I was really proud of my decisions today. On No. 3, I laid up short of a bunker, even though I might have been able to carry it and get up and down for par, then hit a 3-wood on No. 8, instead of trying to smash it with the driver.

Kevin Kring

We have been sorting the debris into piles of wood, shingles and metal around these homes. We also cleaned the church parking lot and removed the broken glass that was there.

Susan Watson

He had been with Wood-land Hills a long time.

She was fully capable of running the place if Dad had to be someplace. During her lifetime, she's helped build fences, she's helped saw wood.

Vivian Mathers

People harvest wood, mushrooms and berries from those forests, not knowing that they are subjecting their health to serious radiation risk. The samples are 10-25 times more radioactive than the limits set by the European Commission for defining a substance as radioactive waste.

Ivan Blokov

Travis did a great job throwing the ball. Our line protected him real well. I'd like to be more balanced than that — Wood attempted 39 passes — but we got behind and I wanted to try to keep us in the game.

Derrick Walker

It doesn't look that bad from the outside. But inside, the water damage is incredible. The fire department was just awesome. After the fire was out, they went in and pulled down family pictures and moved wood furniture to less wet places and put tarps over it.

Karl Buch

What kind of wood is gopher wood is the wrong question. The right question is what does it mean?

Mackie Jenkins

The rookie class of 2005 may be the best group of rookies we've ever seen. Whether they go on to win Pro Cup titles like Clay and Shane, or win at higher levels like Vickers and Wood, remains to be seen, but they've got the potential to become household names in the racing world.

Tony Cox

My playing sometimes got in the way of my filling the wood box. I was sometimes taken out of bed to do penance for such derelictions.

John Coolidge

We've taken our timely raw-material timber-pricing data to the next level, which will ultimately help our customers make better business decisions. We're the only company in the forest and wood-products industry that has been able to collect this level of raw-material data. We believe it will revolutionize timber-price forecasting and planning.

Pete Stewart

People around here think we're mostly a wood company. But economically, we're a plastic company. We buy more plastic, in dollars, than we do wood.

Alan Ramsey

People are going back to cutting wood. I feel sorry for the elders.

Linda Evans

You see fully wainscoted walls in the first half of the 18th century. Wainscoting was also a sort of early insulation, especially for stone houses, where the walls could be cold and damp. Wood absorbs heat for a cozy feeling.

Doug Bucher

BP is committed to communities where we have a presence, ... And here in Wood River, where BP has called home for many years, we are very interested in the opportunity to turn this property back into a substantial economic development for the benefit of the residents of Wood River because it's good for the environment, good for business and the right thing to do.

Howard Miller

Wood came out here and beat us. You have to give that guy credit. He really competed and then they had that one big inning. We are still playing well right now; we should be happy to be 9-2. We beat these guys two out of three and now we need to look ahead.

Dan Ariola

You're always going to have a few bumps and bruises this time of year. We're as healthy as any team. We've been pretty lucky to avoid that big injury. Knock on wood.

Steve Bergman

Aaron's a special player. This is a tremendous blow to our team. But now we have to rally around Wood. We picked him up because we felt he had similar qualities to Aaron.

Weylan Harding

At this point, he's very proficient, and he's reached a professional level. His works have a certain raw quality that's edgy and draws imagery from popular culture. He gets in tune with the wood he's working with and has a real natural feel for the materials.

Peter West

Jerome Wood was part of a generation of path-breakers in the study of Latin America who made it easier for me to do what I do today.

J. Lorand Matory

Bernard De Voto

And when other people get that first shocking heating bill, I look for a lot more wood stove customers.

I think it's a slam dunk. But knock wood, you know. Everyone seems very happy, so I have every expectation that we'll be here next year.

Glenn Gordon Caron

Working with Wood County Schools is nothing new, but working on this scale is certainly new to us and something to be excited about. This is a win for DuPont, it is a win for the students, and we view this as a very positive and exciting development and partnership.

Robin Ollis

We'd saw wood - him on one end of a double saw and me on the other.

Mary Leblanc

We have not had one incident since we put in the wild lime. Knock on wood.

Carolyn Patton

We are very excited to be partnering with Wood County Schools. We think this will have a positive impact on students and their scientific backgrounds for many, many years.

Robin Ollis

The eagle was one of the best shots I have ever hit. I had 242 yards to the flag and I hit a five wood to a foot.

Simon Dyson

I don't feel totally comfortable with my driver and this is a tight driving golf course, so I had to hit three-wood quite a few times today. But my irons feel really good right now.

Bruce Lietzke

There still remains a big area that has a lot of overgrown vegetation, the fence is in disrepair and there are barrels and scrap metal and wood on the property.

Justin Murphy

This species has been in the U.S. for 50 years, yet has not spread into Missouri despite many chances over the years to hitch rides on infested wood, like railroad ties.

Richard Houseman

It's early in the year, and we made some young mistakes. Mike pitched well and we got some good wood on the ball, but we just didn't get the key hit at the right time.

Jim Almarode

[COLUMBIA CITY - Brittney Kyler finished with a round of 41 and Natosha Wood finished the day right behind her with with a 42 as the Columbia City High School Lady Eagles' golf team edged Leo at Eagle Glen Golf Course, 180-184.] We escaped with a victory in this match, ... This was a match where they had the lead, we caught up and went ahead, and then we tried to give away.

Jim Thompson

We were just trying to locate a fastball away - trying to get ahead. He got good wood on it. He timed it good and hit it out of the park. I tip my hat to him.

Geovany Soto

The kind with the wood on the sides — that's cool.

Justin Lewis

It's been 31 years, since 1974, we last won a major (trophy and) Andrew Johns and Natty (Nathan Wood), our two oldest players were born in 1974 so it's a little bit spooky.

Paul Cullen

Her wood game is so strong because she has to hit them a lot. She's long off the tee, but not as long as the other No. 1s we face. She can hit the 5-wood and is really accurate.

Dave Holmes

This is laying the groundwork for distressed debt opportunities. We think it is analogous to the stacking of wood for a bonfire.

Howard Marks

I thought we came out a little flat. Wood scored the first goal, but we started to play better after that. I thought we took the match over in the second half and played like we could.

Brad Keller

The way the damage was done to the shack it was not due to the wood stove or a candle. It was negligence but we cannot prove it.

John Park

It's when you're going through the process of seeing the wood almost coming to life. Then, at the end of the process, with the eyes looking back at you, it's almost like it's coming alive.

Bruce Divaccaro

The Loyal Refugee Volunteers were not members of the regular British Army. Their job was to cut wood for the British, who would pay them for it. To supplement that wood income, they raided into the Bergen County countryside to take horses and cattle, which they then would sell.

Todd W. Braisted

It's pretty routine when we have to deal with vandalism and theft, be it smashed windows or wood being stolen.

Duncan Stokes

Can I throw harder than Joe Wood? Listen mister, no man alive can throw any harder than Smokey Joe Wood.
