William Shakespeare

If all the year were playing holidays; To sport would be as tedious as to work.

Steve Jobs

I wrote once every two or three weeks for about a year, ... and then about a year ago, I got an e-mail.

Lyndon B. Johnson

No wonder Americans hate politics when, year in and year out, they hear politicians make promises that won't come true because they don't even mean them - campaign fantasies that win elections but don't get nations moving again.

Bill Clinton

I want to see the correct focus and the correct attitude, not just from the players, but the entire organization of the importance of the season. Last year, we rebounded and had a very good regular season and our expectations were high, and we didn't meet those expectations in the playoffs. I think rather than running from that, we need to meet those expectations head-on.

Doug Armstrong

That was one of the selling points. No promises were made, but if I do my job behind the wheel this year, the future is bright.

David Starr Jordan

Through the year, you only have one shot at Daytona. Your career is never complete unless you won at Daytona. It is weird that we haven't been then in a year, but man, when I drive though the tunnel in January, it's like magic.

David Starr Jordan

We found that a slick truck can also be on the edge in the draft. We found last year that we want a fair amount of drag on it because during the race, drag means grip. There's kind of a fine line. I think you want to build a truck that has a little bit of drag.

David Starr Jordan

Last year, when you went into Turn 3 and 1, if you had a truck on the right side of you, there was a sweet spot. When you turned, you had to really be careful.

David Starr Jordan

For the first year of marriage I had basically a bad attitude. I tended to place my wife underneath a pedestal.

Woody Allen

Organized crime in America takes in over forty billion dollars a year and spends very little on office supplies.

Woody Allen

It's the ultimate 24/7 job, and presidential history will tell you that there is no way of getting relief. It's a four-year root canal of pressure and problems.

Robert Browning

This year, or this month, or, more likely, this very day, we have failed to practise ourselves the kind of behaviour we expect from other people.

C. S. Lewis

Yeah, we felt that we could have a pretty good season, ... We won those state titles with four losses one year and five the other. Playing the bigger AAA schools will make us better.

Robert Browning

I have been assured by a very knowing American of my acquaintance in London, that a young healthy child well nursed is at a year old a most delicious, nourishing, and wholesome food, whether stewed, roasted, baked, or boiled, and I make no doubt that it will equally serve in a fricassee, or a ragout.

Jonathan Swift

I don't know if boring is the right word to describe the coming year. But it's not likely there will be anything controversial. It's going to be a status quo kind of year. The Legislature is in an enviable position as to what to do with all the extra money that is coming in.

Andrew Smith

It's an off budget year, so there is not as much going on in that regard. However, there may be a desire to spend some of the higher revenues that are coming in. It will be interesting to see if Republicans and Democrats can restrain themselves when it comes to spending.

Andrew Smith

Birthdays don't really matter much anymore ... for me, I sort of have a new birthday and that's October 2nd, the day I was diagnosed, ... the day we all sort of look to and mark these milestones by one year, two year, five year, 10 year. Hopefully, I have a 50 year.

Lance Armstrong

It'll be interesting and I'm excited for the challenge of the year. I feel confident I can play at this level and my game is at a good level in terms of competing.

Libby Smith

This is a huge, huge win for us. All four seniors have played all four years. We got to the regional championship last year and lost it. It was our goal to get here and win it.

Ben Chappell

I think the thing he really needs to do to get better is put in more time in the weight room. Last year, we did a little bit of weight work with him. This year, we've tried to do a little more. He needs to get stronger.

Mark Wroblewski

The problem is Florida voters keep saying eight years, but the legislature is hearing 12 and 24 years. They're just not hearing the voters who cast their ballots by a solid 77% margin in favor of eight-year term limits, so we decided to help their hearing.

Max Linn

Mooney is rebuilding this year. They've handed it to us a pretty good time the last couple years. They're just young.

Perry Patella

We've always had a plan. As the years go along, you revise it every year, every six months or as needed. Every time there's a structure change, you have to update the plan, and with environmental changes.

Andy Watson

They're playing well together. It's a team effort, and every game has been a team effort. The team we had last year was similar, when they get behind, they don't quit.

Bruce Wright

They shouldn't have let him go. Now they have to find a guy they can patch up to a seven-year contract.

James Bond

I was so proud of Maggie and Michelle. I coached Michelle the last two years and she has often come back from being down in matches. She's a tough competitor. This is Maggie's first year on varsity and she showed me she won't give up and will continue working the points.

Joan Dowdle

Definitely I think our No. 1 singles in boys and No. 1 doubles teams have a shot at getting to the state tournament. Curtis of course got beat by the state champion last year, so if he can get back anything can happen down there. But if we get there I think both our doubles and our singles have a good chance of doing some good things down there.

Danny O'quinn

We think this change will have minimal impact on our fans. Sunset will occur one hour later this year due to the time change, which will give us just as much daylight as last year.

Joie Chitwood

You know, we're 12 months later and I'm still ecstatic about what happened last year, ... It's just one of those things, I was at the right place at the right time and happened to hole the shot.

Craig Parry

When I first got called up last year, J.J. and I were basically the only two guys on the team (that were young and new). So we did everything together - going to the mall, going to eat, just everything we did off the baseball field.

Rickie Weeks

This is what we've been shooting for all year. When we made out team goals this year this was the main one.

Michelle Christopher

The 2-year-old market is now a force. I am real confident going in that we have a good group of horses to continue that trend.

Tom Ventura

This is the time of the year you always look forward to.

Jose Vizcaino

The Coventry School Committee has been ahead of the curve in addressing the nutrition needs of our students. This committee is an extension of a process begun more than a year ago to ensure the foods we offer had high nutritional value.

Michael Reeves

We're deeper this year, so hopefully, that can work to our advantage as this season moves on.

Steve Pfund

He's over 90 percent on the year. There was not much doubt.

Nick Holmes

With this team we're cautiously optimistic. It's basically the same team from last year . . . so we're expecting them to do a little bit better than we did last year. But we have a tough road ahead, especially in our district.

Al Melnick

So that would be at most $500, while the average Perkins loan is $2,000. When you do the math, the net loss to students (in federal aid each year) would be at least $1,500.

Bruce Caplin

I had a goal this year, to make the NCAA (Championship). I was training for that aspect; that was my motivation.

Vanessa Duenas

I think last year we only had one first place and for Justin to be MVP of the league and the conference meet, that's the highest honor we can receive. It's just amazing what an asset the Brooks brothers have been to the program.

Brian Buckley

What we'll hope to see, coming off a fantastic winter like this, is ... an increase in destination visitors next year.

Brian Schott

Fans have to understand that's part of going from Division II to Division I. You're used to being a contender at Division II year in and year out. Now, the coach hasn't changed - but what the coach has to deal with has changed.

Van Coleman

We have a more mixed picture (and) that would have made some people rethink economic prospects maybe towards the end of the year.

Rainer Guntermann

This was well flagged, but these stocks will be quite tetchy this year. The bill's proponents appear to think this is their best chance in years.

Greg Feehely

We have 13 seniors and a good group of freshmen. We dealt with injuries last year, but I think we'll be OK. That's why we want to get to Florida and play some games.

Jami Isaacson

We've certainly seen significant funds being raised in the past year. That actually has the private equity firms searching for more deals than they have in the past.

Roger Denny

It does make a difference to finish off with a win. It's been a disappointing year for us. I don't think it was just one thing that went wrong, but the bottom line is a lot of us didn't play up to our potential.

Markus Naslund

I'd like to see them gone, ... It wouldn't bug me if they didn't rebuild at all. Last year when they asked to be allowed to put their casinos on pilings, that was supposed to be all they needed. That was not all they needed.

Gary Jackson

We're doing a lot better than last year. It's real tough competition.

Ryan Lucas

(The season) was up and down but we really came together in the last five or six games and the girls are extra motivated for next year now.

Craig Brown

I was in my thirteenth year when I heard a voice from God to help me govern my conduct. And the first time I was very much afraid.

Bill Weld

Maine and us go back and forth, depending on the year.

Peter Gregg

We're glad we have the money this year. We certainly hope to get more money next year.

Stephanie Marquis

We need to block and tackle well, that's been a lot of our focus. We always execute on offense and defense, the bottom line is it's just blocking and tackling. We're very optimistic about this year. I think the Ocean will be on a real upswing this year. There's not weeks off for anybody.

Mark Newton

I'm really proud of the way my team wrestled this year. It's one heck of an accomplishment.

Wayne Hicks

Over the last year, we've seen a sharp increase in our enterprise customer base toward voice, expanding beyond the early white-tile applications in healthcare and warehouses, and more into the carpeted enterprise.

Ben Gibson

It was a battle for 40 minutes, back and forth, the crowd was into it. We were into it. It came down to the last shot. But that was last year; this is this year. We can't go back to last year.

Lindsay Bowen

I hope they keep the team somewhat intact, ... I think most of us deserve another year --another chance. I think we probably could use someone like a dominant No. 1 starting pitcher, but beyond that I don't know what the hell to say about what we should do.

Jamie Walker

I've played a lot better over here this year, ... I've shot a lot lower scores; I just haven't really managed to put four rounds together. But I'm still only 32 years old and starting to feel more adjusted to playing over here.

Lee Westwood

I think I've been having a decent year; I've scored some goals, my ice time is coming up more. I don't know -- they know what they get when I'm on the ice -- I'm around the net, I do my thing on the power play, and try to screen the goalie. They know what they're going to get.

Tomas Holmstrom

We have reached a level with our program that we should be in the Top 5 in the nation every year. Our goal is to have an Olympic-level program. We have the talent to be that if our kids are mentally tough, work hard and are disciplined.

Vladimir Nazlymov

It's just the same as every other weekend: I just have to go out there and pitch my game. I don't think they're too much better than last year, but I didn't face them, so we'll see.

Brandon Morrow

During the first two weekends of October each year, Fulton County, Illinois, welcomes the world to the villages, parks, and bridges of Spoon River Valley Scenic Drive.

Joan Johnson

We know it will be hard match and we know how they will play against us, but we showed last year what can happen.

John Jeffrey

In short, ... we pledge to continue in the coming year to dig up, sort out, and illuminate the critically important stories you need and want to know about, and to deliver them to your door in the pages of Whistleblower.

Joseph Farah

Yeah, I knew him for a year.

Hillary Peterson

This could happen by the end of the year if all the necessary preparations come together.

Charles Soludo

I am looking at recurrent earnings growth of 10 percent in 2006 for the banks, if you strip out exceptional items. Industry loan growth should be about 8 percent this year.

David Lum

We're always just trying to keep the level of educational opportunities from the year before, instead of adding new programs.

Patti Pawling

Actually I am a little bit surprised. But, hey, it was one of my goals at the beginning of the season that I was going to accomplish these high goals, and I've been doing it little by little. So even higher goals for next year.

Jorge Cantu

In terms of front-line players, it's the worst since I've been here. Last year, we probably had 10 more guys injured at this stage of practice.

Jack Siedlecki

A catalyst for a higher Australian dollar versus New Zealand's dollar could be relative monetary policy, ... We expect the Reserve Bank of Australia to lift rates toward the end of the year and early next, while we expect New Zealand's economy to slow sharply next year.

Ashley Davies

They wanted to open up room for Ryan, and that's good -- Ryan Zimmerman is a great player and great prospect, ... The trade will work out for me, too. I'll be in San Diego with a team that made the playoffs this year.

Vinny Castilla

Some people say I may have underachieved when I was in Pittsburgh, ... But you have to have the opportunity to achieve anything, period, much less overachieve. And I think I was a big-play receiver in Pittsburgh. I only averaged 20 yards per catch (actually 19.8 in 11 games last year).

Plaxico Burress

It was tough, there was no silver spoon in the mouth. I did a five-year apprenticeship starting at 14. You have to prove yourself. They throw you a bit of meat on the bone and if you handle it you go on.

Douglas Whyte

I don't make resolutions. If it's something I need to do, I do it. I don't wait until the new year.

Alice White

I really feel good about the team and what they did. This is just the first tournament of the year for the National Team. I'm expecting even greater things.

Julian Jackson

I learned the system and got better with it through the year. But I was only there, what, like four months? Those guys had been together for three years.

Cuttino Mobley

The thing last year did for us is prove that we can win this thing. We can compete with anybody in Ohio and we totally believe that. We're very confident going in.

Keith Snoddy

We had our best half of basketball all year. Our defense was outstanding. We started to go a little individual in the second half.

Gary Giancola

In the last year or so, this has really taken off like a freight train without brakes.

Philip Mote

The end result is a ho-hum year for the market.

David Sowerby

Ryan Butler and our quarterback have been hooking up all year long. Our skill players are doing well. We are just trying to get the right people in the right places. Anytime you can win two games in a row that makes you proud of your guys and coaches.

Joe Matthews

We are pleased that the contract with Tier will improve services to Virginia's child support clients. We expect the center will receive and respond to more than 1.4 million calls each year to assist families with child support questions.

Nick Young

(Lamar) drilled us at our house last year and we challenged our players to put out a great effort tonight. We didn't look pretty but we made the play we had to make at the end to win the game.

Johnny White

Actually, we are young this year. Next year should be the year we put it all together.

Mike Surrency

I believe we can make these leases and still make good on our goal. If we come in less, this would be a good year to be low on storage, because we plan to draw down Clear Creek Reservoir next year.

Alan Ward

Washington had as good of athletes defending him as we've seen all year. They really tried to make things difficult for him.

Bill Mcnees

[The 52-year-old Connors appeared energized as he signed everything in sight and fulfilled every request possible for pictures. Walking towards the players' lounge, he was approached by USA analyst and former player Tracy Austin about coming on the network for an interview.] I have nothing to say, ... You know me, Tracy, I'm a low-key guy.

Jimmy Connors

This year, we knew that we could get in and we did. It feels real good.

Theo Sherman

Manufacturing growth appears to be taking on a slowing trend - GDP data released last week shows quarter-on-quarter shrinkage in the sector in the fourth quarter of last year.

Nazmeera Moola

I was telling them I'd get tickets for next year, buy them and trade them to them. I told them if I get drafted, I'd give them four tickets to wherever I go.

Wayne Dickens

She's hitting her stride. She's been up and down this year.

Julie Mulder

All classified staff had a three-percent raise this year. Those who had more than five years of service had a $50-per-year increase in their base pay.

Rebecca White

If you make any money, the government shoves you in the creek once a year with it in your pockets, and all that don't get wet you can keep.

Will Rogers

That's how we're going to have to play all year.

Chad Bankston

They are a much better football team this year. Their numbers are up.

Mark Clifford

For a first-year event, I'm very pleased with it. It brought new technology, new ways of doing things, but it is coming together very well.

Dale Phillips

We've had guys in and out all year. It's been tough for the coach and tough for the players. On top of that we've had a lot of injuries. Now we'll be able to be together as a team for a significant amount of time.

Frankie Hejduk

Stick around for at least another year, Smith.

Kirk Archibeque

Cycle after cycle, like the ticks of a clock, we get closer and closer to the point where one of these mega-thrust earthquakes are going to occur like happened in Indonesia last year. You can almost look at these slip events as ticks of that clock.

Bill Steele

I am very proud of the legislation we were able to pass this year, ... Many of the bills we worked on were district bills that will have a direct and positive impact on the people who live in the 15th Senate district.

Abel Maldonado

I definitely think we're a better team than last year. I don't think we're a playoff team yet, but we are an improved team.

Allyson Wolff

This was the story of our season. We had a hard time putting together four complete quarters all year.

Ray Moyer

The college has made the commitment to Steve that he'll be the football coach for the next year.

Dale Murray

I'm very proud of my seniors. Wonders and Casey were phenomenal team captains. Some of the seniors haven't been out for a couple of years and came back. At a year where we were 3-15, there is still a lot to be proud of.

Chad Vollmecke

It's always that hot. We were supposed to get air last year, but we'll lose our home-court advantage with that.

Tom Mcdonald

I think last year we had a lot of revenge in mind. They beat us by 40. We had a lot to prove to them.

Nick Dewitz

Sometimes I think you have to watch what you wish for because we have proven ourselves being the lower seed. Last year Boston College was cheering for us too. If that's what they want they got it. We understand it'll be 95 percent Florida fans and that will just add to excitement. We're ready for it.

Adrian Tigert

What we're getting in the Hong Kong story this year is the re-rating of the market, the growth of the China play potential of the market, and I think people have completely discounted any problems at all with the hand over.

Nicholas Horsley

We are looking at purchasing a computer program that would shut down the more than 900 computers that are on the network. The software will cost the district about $500 and save us more than $23,000 in energy costs per year.

Mike Shockley

I think we might not have as much talent on our defense this year, but I think we have much better team players this year. Guys aren't going out there and freelancing. They're spending more time in film study and playing good assignment defense the only way it should be played, and that's at 100 miles per hour.

Grant Wistrom

We've had the team to win it. I think we have it again this year. We just need to be confident. I think we've gone into those games too timid.

Brayden Ashdown

Every game becomes our biggest game of the year now.

Jordan Roth

There is a lot at stake in this game. We know that Missouri State will come in here and play their best game of the year. We beat them on their home floor the first time in a really close game so we know they'll want to get us back.

Jane Albright

At times, we played our best basketball of the year against them. Our kids came out of that game understanding we can compete with those teams.

John Given

We think it is a great building in a market where we see increased leasing activity. We believe the building will lease up quickly over the coming year and we see the medical market continuing to grow.

Jim Diamond

The 3-point shot has been one of the greatest things we've done for the game. The first year it was a state adopted rule. The next year because of overwhelming success, people were pleased with the rule and it became the norm.

Mary Struckhoff

I thought this would be the year (that he would be healthy). But I fought through it anyway.

Kellon Balum

We feel that the vast, vast majority of 16-year-olds are able to drive safely.

Dave Druker

Although execution remains solid, sales trends continue (to be) soft and key product initiatives have not played out during the last 12 months. We do not see material changes to the Barbie product line in calendar year 2006 and would not bet on a turnaround in calendar year 2007 just yet.

Tony Gikas

We believe this [upgrade] must be revolutionary. We hope to make an architecture decision in the first half of this year.

Len Lauer

It's not so important for him, the overall. He won it last year. This is something that had been discussed since the start of the season, taking a break before the Olympics.

Marc Habermann

Since the regulation was retroactive, the companies had to pay one full year of extra taxes ... The policy has shut down 21 of us.

Murphy Hutagalung

The Make Poverty History coalition came together for a special year of opportunity. The political decisions made would not have been made without their passionate commitment. If governments follow through on their promises, millions of lives that would have been lost could now be saved.

Richard Bennett

We're discussing expansion for next year.

Jerry Magoon

In comparison with a year ago, the biggest improvement reflected cost reductions and favorable net pricing.

Don Leclair

We had a little bit of a cold front move through (Thursday). Temperatures can swing a bit this time of the year as we're shifting from winter to summer.

Matt Bragaw

I've learned so much from him. Last year, he got win No. 400 against me. I helped him get [No.] 200.

Sean O'neill

For outdoors I just want to try and have fun. I want to enjoy my senior year, have fun and run as fast as I can.

Dan Mcmanamon

I think we kind of need to regroup and get back to how we know how to play. Because as far as talent and as far as who's the better team, we're better than they are this year, and so the reason that we're losing games is our own fault.

Cyndy Kenyon

You can get clusters. It does seem to be a big jump, but I'd anticipate that the next year it would be lower.

Susan Ferguson

The prevailing vibe out here is that everyone is having a pretty good year. It's hard to find negative things to say about the online advertising market in 2004.

Charles Buchwalter

Absolutely amazing. To come back from a shoulder injury from last year where he couldn't swim, it was amazing.

Dylan Evans

They were a physical team. They were skilled all over the place. Last year was our wake-up call.

Chris Yoder

This is a long time coming. We have been working hard, both on and off the court all year. This team deserves it.

Julian Mclain

There's some nice symmetry because now we've taken back the 75 basis points Greenspan gave us last year. The Fed has been saying steady as she goes for the last few years if you add it all up, and maybe this is where we will stop.

Chris Grisanti

This year, we're focusing on our small goals. Our small goals are to win every at-bat, win every pitch. To win the SEC, we're not looking ahead from game to game. ... We're not looking for the next two weekends, but we're looking at [Alabama] for the next two days, and we're going to push hard and try to beat them.

Kristen Butler

Overall we are optimistic about the prospects for the economy, ... yet in some important respects, 2006 could be a more difficult year for companies and the business agenda.

Tom Donohue

Juan has been wanting to fight. If it was up to him, he would have defended his title three or four times in the past year instead of once.

Willie Savannah

It's going to be a breakthrough year for this team. We're not just playing the games just to play. We're playing for the playoffs.

Rashean Mathis

The other path is through education. Fresno State and Cal Poly in Pomona offer four-year degrees in land surveying.

Paul Enneking

Most companies are looking for a 12-month return on investment, or payback in the same fiscal year. It may be that the price point is too high.

Richard Barrett

This is a cynical attempt by a certain faction of politicians to utilize religion to divide the people of Missouri along religious lines during an election year. It essentially asks legislators to vote on whether they believe in God and whether they think that the Christian version of God should be ratified as the state religion of Missouri.

Brett Shirk

Amy will be playing a big role. All of the distance swimmers will be coming back next year and with her contributions it should make for a good season.

Steve Paska

Part of the beginning of this year will be patience with some of these players, allowing them to fail at times. It's a fine line. We're going to have to pick and choose and see how they respond to the challenge.

Larry Beinfest

The American Benefits Council, representing companies that either directly sponsor or provide services to retirement and health plans covering more than 100 million Americans, believes that it is critical that pension reform legislation be enacted this year.

James Klein

That's $2.8 million a year in savings right there. That will buy a lot of $25,000 ICU monitors and extra square feet in rooms.

Rich Davis

She spoke my name for the first time in a year. She ... sort of came out of the darkness for a few minutes. That's when I really thought there's something to this for the aged (and) infirm.

Mickey Hart

Last year, we introduced DING! for Windows and immediately heard from our growing number of Customers that use Macintosh computers. Today, we will eliminate our Customers' DING! envy by offering a Macintosh version of the tool.

Anne Murray

You would think he's a fifth-year senior. He always wants the ball and wants to make plays, and that's what's been missing around here.

Michael Robinson

Our numbers haven't looked this good in a year.

John Reynolds

It's gotten a lot more sophisticated. There's more money in it and more money to hire people. And you're taking a lot of young guys who aren't as fundamentally sound because they're either coming out of high school or they've been in college for only one year.

Jim Brewer

I write constantly, but only in my journals. I have three of them: one for travel, one for home, and one I write in before bed. But the last thing I want is other people reading it..... What's really fun is reading your journal, like a year later, or.

Cameron Diaz

They're so grown up. It helps me and Blake (Morgan) as the younger starters. They help us keep our focus, especially since this is my first year. It almost feels like we're cheating, like they shouldn't be here.

Rex Morgan

Probably this year, they don't pitch me the same way they used to. This year, they are trying more for outside but I don't look for outside most of the time.

Tony Batista

That's 38,700 more Missourians bringing home paychecks than just a year ago. We encourage lawmakers to continue this momentum by keeping an eye on jobs as they craft legislation in the 2006 Legislative session.

Daniel P. Mehan

We're already faster than we were at this same point of last year's season. It will only make Patriots this year even better than the last.

Liz Geary

If you put it all together, each house would have $400 to spend (a year) on things other than energy.

Jennifer Morgan

We're not looking at it that way. We looked at it that way last year and we lost.

Chris Raso

We always like to top the number we made the year before. But we're running a little behind last year's pace.

Jane Sawyer

We can't work on those streets with state funds because they're off the state system. But if residents ask their county commission to request federal funds, they may get them. Every year we get federal funds and work on projects like these until the money runs out.

Bill Henderson

The key to our season will be out there on the bump (the pitchers mound). I think we can swing the bat and score runs. The big question will be if we can throw it. If we get some guys to step up and throw some good innings for us we can have a good year.

Joey Sato

We need a new police department building. And they are working with 25-year-old dispatch equipment. The city has property, they could have the funds for a new police building.

Carol Smith

Even the No. 1 teams who are expected to do well are on opposite ends of the bracket. This year that's just the way it turned out. It's a good draw and should be a great tournament as a result.

Scott Parrish

Our girls were ready to play, and we hung in there and came back at the end. This is a team that had fun this year, and that is what high school sports is all about. And I think you can learn more in life when you lose than when you win. I think this will help them in the future.

Bobby Renzi

I can see how thrilled he is to be back, ... It was the right decision. In the end, it came down to returning to the Lakers or taking another year off. And here we are.

Todd Musburger

Overall, I think it's been really good. That's an expectation here. Our goal every year is to have the best and deepest pitching staff in the country, so we expect them to be successful.

Brent Kemnitz

When you advance to the Sweet 16 for the second year in a row, playing like we've been playing, you're elated. We were in a tough one and realized our backs were against the wall. We knew that if we didn't respond, we'd be at home (for the rest of the season).

Don Lofton

After only four times on the board, she was hitting jumps, sliding rails and hitting boxes at some of the area's biggest ski hills. She will be competing in 2006-007, after only one year in the sport.

Kirk Ruston

It's got to be the yen. That is the currency with the lowest yield and borrowers can be comfortable that the BOJ is not going to significantly boost their funding costs over the course of the year.

Daniel Katzive

This could be practice for next year, but this kind of race is a lottery and I've got good enough form to get a result.

William Walker

He had better control last year. All of his walks come in bunches.

Sean Linville

I think this will be a very challenging year for us ahead.

Marta Koesling

I met with Coach Bowden and he gave me some good information. I believe another year will also give me a chance to be a higher draft choice.

Gaines Adams

He's looking at a year from now before he's allowed to be on the field.

Stan Johnston

This year, they're kind of trying to have a little bit of a medium between 2003 and 2004.

Anthony Gikas

I'm tired of hearing sin called sickness and alcoholism a disease. It is the only disease I know of that we're spending hundreds of millions of dollars a year to spread.

Vance Havner

We've had quite a shining start of the year so the fundamental driver of markets will probably surprise on the positive side this year again.

Yves Maillot

I remember Kevin Beck scored a first half goal for us, and we held the lead until the final 10 minutes and then they scored two goals to beat us. But we turned the tables on them the next year.

Frank Spurchise

It's hard because I think we know what to expect, but Santa Fe Indian School was the first game of the year and St. Mike's was the 11th game of the year.

Gerald Horacek

This was a very good road win for us. Kenyon's a formidable foe early in the year.
