I suppose I'd characterize myself as having a faith-based optimism. My faith is parental and Darwinian.

I have a person who works in my organization who once was a woman and now is a man. I didn't know for years that this person had had a sex change. I know what a wonderful person he is, and I based some of my feelings (in the song) on my feelings for him and on knowing what he went through.

I have appeared on 'The Dr. Oz show' and recognize that Dr. Oz does not hold the exact same viewpoints about all controversies in human nutrition that I do, but he has a huge base of knowledge and is open-minded and willing to re-consider a position based on emerging evidence on multiple scientific and health issues.

I would say this tournament was a little stronger than the Valley of the Moon based on individuals. You can't always look at teams. I think having Healdsburg, Will C. Wood (Vacaville) and Hogan (Vallejo) was great. Vacaville also brought some good kids.

I would say that if Jason Taylor had played in a 3-4 system somewhere, he would have been a Hall of Fame outside linebacker. There is no question about that based on the athletic ability the guy has.

It is not only track and field, there are soccer players, football players, basketball players, cyclists and you would be surprised that some of the great players are doing stuff.

I can't say I'm disappointed. Based upon our practice rounds, we've been lowering our scores a little bit. We were having a hard time breaking a 200 (in nine-hole events) and we got down to a 185. We had a couple other rounds in the 190s, so we're getting a little better.

I can't do anything different based on the importance of the game. I just have to pitch my game. I've said that all along, even though it's playoffs, you're going to get 85, 86, 87 (miles-per-hour) on the corners and I'm not going to strike too many people out.

I did a short film at Outfest, 'Where Are the Dolls,' based on an Elizabeth Bishop poem done, where I play this woman who is sort of walking the streets and ends up alone dancing in a club. I have this hot and heavy scene with a very beautiful actress. It became very popular.

Freedom is a great demonstration of how the Opera Platform mobile AJAX authoring environment can help operators, handset manufacturers or content providers create compelling user-oriented premium services that are not hindered by the limitations of WAP and GSM/GPRS data transfer speeds.

I don't think we have enough information based on this study alone to justify that sort of recommendation. I think the take-away message is that low vitamin D levels are not desirable. This doesn't just relate to lung function. A low vitamin D level is linked to bone disease, and an association has been suggested between low vitamin D levels and other diseases such as diabetes and coronary heart disease.

Based on that, I don't think we're going to change the specs dramatically.

I don't think we're going to change the technical specifications dramatically. Change costs money. Continuity and stability is one of the best things we can provide. Based on that, I don't think we're going to change the specs dramatically.

If a hospital is providing quality angioplasty and they're close to the numbers, we're not going to shut them down. Our decision really only can be made based on volume, but barring them being egregiously unable to meet expectations of volume, the agency is not looking to shut the programs down. We would be concerned if they were well below.

If it's based on wanting the guys on top to play together, it's a bunch of hogwash. There's no problem with our tour as far as what's going on.

They seem to think that just because they're the best players that everybody should listen to them and only do what they want.

For me to determine that one set of actions vs. another based on my limited perspective in the way that I grew up or the way that I've conducted myself, you've got to be very careful about (that),

These capitalization rates and values may not be representative of future capitalization rates and values that may be achieved on the Company's remaining properties under the liquidation plan.

Based on our research, it appears that increases in numbers of patients at both ends of the acuity spectrum contribute to ED overcrowding. Some increased volume may be due to severely ill patients who can now be treated successfully in the ED, such as those with irregular heartbeat. At the other end of the spectrum, a growing number of less sick patients are now coming to the ED, particularly in areas without after-hours facilities. This is an access problem.
