If we're running the ball well, then the safeties have to come up. That's going to open things up for Chad. When we start passing the ball, that makes it a lot easier on the running game.

Lebanon should not remain an open battlefield against Israel and this state-within-state status should end.

Lee-Jackson Day does not receive equal treatment in Virginia with Martin Luther King Jr. Day.

Cassels has been terrific, he's really been stepping up in the stretch run, pushing his teammates and getting the ball to the right people at the right time. And the rebounds for Ryder, Grant and Schneider were a big part of the run. A lot of people contributed, and we made our free throws down the stretch.

We're not doing it. I'm not doing it. We can put forth as much of an effort as we want on defense, but teams who can shoot well are going to score points ? and we've got to execute. We're getting open looks. We're just not making them.

We made adjustments to try to get me open in better positions.

There are times in the life of nations when they feel confident that they can take on the world, that they are capable of meeting any challenge. One reason such a mind-set is important is that it creates an intolerance for laziness, for shoddy products, for open corruption, and for the usual excuses. When people have a strong conviction that they can achieve the possibilities of the future, it makes them less tolerant of impediments in their way to it.

There are times where it can get very heated, but most of the time it's just good open debate.

We are also pleased to confirm that last year's acquisition by Berkshire Hathaway has helped us attain the industry's highest financial rating, allowed us to expand our underwriting appetite to additional practice specialties that meet our underwriting criteria, and provided us with the capital to open the door for even more Texas healthcare providers who desire the strongest carrier.

Sheldon (Souray) shot it at the net and Saku (Koivu) had a shot at it and (Alex) Kovalev had a shot, and I suddenly found myself with an open net,
