Program Quotations | Page 6

Jake's a good tackler. That's how guys who walk onto your program find their way onto the field, and that's the benefit of going live out here and watching them play.

has fostered a program that pursues excellence on and off the field. Actually, let me amend that: It pursues excellence on the field and pursues the best legal representation money can buy off the field.

Greg called me in Vancouver recently at 1 a.m. and he was still at the office, answering e-mails. We talked of his vision of the program and the explosion of Canadians. That shows his dedication with two young children at home. You're around Greg, you become a better person.

He just brought a new focus, a new attitude. It was something I liked. I figured why not stay close to home and be close to my family and still be in the kind of program that I knew would be successful and would bring the best out of me?

He knows this program really well. He understands the philosophy and the care we have for our kids. I know he supports us in all ways to continue to do that.

There are so many things that we need to improve upon and continue the momentum that we're building in our program -- which is playing better and better week after week. We did that three weeks in a row and now have had a bye week. We don't want any hiccups, even though we'll probably have a few.

There are still decisions to be made on precise program cuts but the amount of the cut has already been established.

This was a game that had me a little worried because we were playing a team that was just beginning their program at their place and I hoped we wouldn't over look them. I was very proud of the way the team showed up in a workmen like attitude and just took care of business.

He is part of a major breeding program to maintain a healthy population of this endangered species in captivity. At 2 years of age, decisions will be made on where he should go to benefit the breeding population.

He is really into football and has an intense intellectual passion for the game. I am really excited about playing for him. I think he is bringing great ideas to the table that can help turn this program around.

He'll be a very good player in our program as time progresses.

He is the face of Providence athletics. He's seen the good, the bad, the great. He's brought the program to the point where it is today. The kids love him. He not only gave them football knowledge, he gave them life knowledge.

He knows that signing day isn't the end of the world. If those are the only visits he makes before then and he knows where he wants to go, that's fine. But he's interested in academics of the program and just the perfect fit for him.

He just wasn't comfortable with it. The new program is still Johnny. But as a skater, when something isn't second nature, you find yourself thinking about it and it gets tougher.

I created an online program that has audio lessons and PDF worksheets and two hours of video. So it's like a course you can do at home. And people are loving it and getting jobs from it.

I'd be a little surprised to learn of any top-level program in the area that didn't highly consider him for a job.

I don't believe anyone is coming to school here unless first and foremost Keene State offers the academic program the student is interested in.

Given the history of Pakistan's nuclear program, these figures will certainly raise a few eyebrows. Pakistan struggled unsuccessfully for decades to develop nuclear weapons, and half of their devices failed to go off in their 1998 tests, which created the impression they were still battling to perfect the technology. Pakistan's nuclear program is generally assumed to be heavily dependent on Chinese assistance, and it sounds a little far-fetched that Beijing would allow them to develop a nuclear program on that scale.

Given all the initial concerns that we had ... we're guardedly optimistic that the program has gotten off to a decent start.

I found myself refreshing a page literally to see if the classes were available. It just seemed such a mechanical process that it made sense to make a program for it.

I am so pleased with the effort our kids gave against St. Laurence. To play a program like that a tough program with all the tradition they have, as well as we did, is really a big step for us. It boosted our confidence tremendously.

I am so proud of Janie. It has been an honor to be a part of her life and golf career for the past four years. Our program will miss her next spring.

I am so proud of my kids and the way we took every shot that Kentucky gave us. We're trying to earn our ropes as an elite program and we're still trying to do that.

I am very excited. I had a big old smile on my face and was very impressed. I think there is a real big buzz about the program now. We are catching people's eye.

I am sure the respective boards will manage their program in the right way to ensure full participation.

I am thrilled to be part of a program with such potential for success ... There is a very talented and tight-knit group of gymnasts here and I'm excited about the opportunity to help strengthen this team into a national-level competitor.

I am truly excited about the quality of these three major sculptures, but also about the diversity of contemporary art being acquired by the museum. The range of work, from abstract to pop art to contemporary realism, demonstrate great breadth and significantly enhance the public art program in our area.

I am really excited about my opportunity here. There's a lot of tradition at Hastings. In the past few years, the program hasn't been as successful as it was in the past, so I'm looking forward to moving forward with the kids. We're all working hard for a common goal.

I am really excited where the program is heading and the guys are really starting to play well. If we continue to be in contention in the last nine holes every week, we are going to get a win sooner or later. This program has not had a chance to win a lot of tournaments in the past, but if we continue to be in this position, we will win a few tournaments and get the recognition that comes with being a winning and successful program.

I can't say enough for what this program has done for those involved. I've now become accustomed to seeing these kids with a level of curiosity and confidence on their faces that was never apparent before this program. Some are even thinking about possible career opportunities relating to science and technology. What more could one want from a program like this?

If only 20 percent or even 30 percent of seniors sign up, that is every negative for the future of the program because the people most likely to sign up are the people with high drug expenses, and you don't have insurance if you don't spread the risk among people who are healthy.

I can't program every step of the way of what would, we would hope, be a coordinated series of steps. But the intention is to go to the next round of talks and to begin addressing these issues in a way that's appropriate for the beginning of the process.

I can't imagine what the odds are of her getting to Notre Dame and then the graduate program here in science. I think she's going to be in great demand because she's a talented woman. There just isn't anyone with her credentials who comes from her background.

I can't imagine what those guys and their program have been through. We respect them as much as any team in the league.

I can't remember how many years it's been since I last saw a David Parsons program or what I saw whenever it was, but that isn't surprising, since I can't really remember the first half of a David Parsons program while I'm watching the second half.

Frankly, the directions this program could take are limitless.

From the very beginning, we wanted it to be a print production. It seemed strange to us in the MFA program to not have that.

From time to time, we intend to monetize the value of our more mature assets, and use the proceeds to fund new development and for other corporate purposes. This strategy efficiently recycles our investment capital to our future development program and allows us to retain a substantial ownership stake and establish a more stable income stream of licensing and management fees.

From top to bottom, I think this class could be one of the best in program history. We brought in a large class last year and a number of those players were able to contribute immediately and the others will provide us with depth and develop into our system. This year, we backed up that class with possibly even a stronger group. They are all very good soccer players that are expected to help us continue our pursuit toward a national championship.

Funding from the Alumni Association MasterCard Grant program and a co-sponsoring from the undergraduate Student Government got things started.

Funding levels are definitely an issue, for CSP specifically. We're not sure how well the program could work, and we probably won't see that kind of funding to find out.

(Former athletic director) Bill Wilder went to the school's board and church council and convinced them that they could have a football program for little money, ... They bought into that.

For me, the big part was qualifying. I hate qualifying. But it was OK to be third, and the short was perfect. And now comes the last program I have to go for this year.

Getting in the nurse anesthesia program was harder than getting a job. I had applied the year before and did not get accepted.

Giuliano is a fantastic violinist, and we looked for a program that would showcase him and his skills. He loves to stand up and perform to an audience, and it is hard to suppress him sometimes. He would be happy to play concertos all night, but I'm not sure that audiences could handle that.

Getting students to participate in the school-lunch program is one of the key objectives,

Getting to the state tournament has always been tough. Being there for the third year in a row is a testament to our kids in the program -- they've all worked hard to get there.

From my view of things, that is where I want our program to be. And I still fully believe in the fact that keeping the arena configuration in the way that we did this year because you've got to take the necessary steps to get there.

I feel like we've really taken our program to another level. It's not been because of me, it's been because of the two young guys coming in. Their attitude has kind of spread through the shop.

I feel so proud that I came out here and did something that I said I was going to do. It's amazing how far our program has come in the past five years. And if I didn't have some of those kids pushing me at practice, I don't think I would have ever done this.

I feel like we had a very good meeting and I really appreciated the folks that turned out to give us there thoughts, ... The NRCS will do all we can to make the 2006 EQIP a good program year.

I feel real confident about our ability to continue to win. It's a fun time of year. You're excited to be playing and I've talked to the players about enjoying the moment and not putting too much pressure on themselves. They need to just relax and have fun. This is the highlight of the season for the program and they have a chance to do something special.

I am beginning a summer boys lacrosse program for disadvantaged kids and any interested kid as a means of opening doors of opportunity.

I am delighted that coach Erickson will be the head football coach at the University of Idaho. Our student-athletes deserve the opportunity to develop and play under the tutelage of a proven, seasoned and successful head coach. I was in leadership roles at Oregon State University during Dennis' renewal of the football program in Corvallis, and know first-hand of the positive impact he had on the entire fabric of the university, its alumni and supporters.

I am delighted that Dominica has achieved Benchmarked status. Dominica is an inspiration to all those people committed to environmentally sustainable tourism. They have demonstrated through a variety of initiatives that they can make a difference to reducing their environmental impact. The commitment they have shown by participating in the Green Globe program and by their achievements sets an example for others to follow.

I am by principle concerned that our country's future will be jeopardized because such an education scheme will further divide the country. Utah's schools are good; they are not struggling like the Washington D. C. schools are where vouchers were recently enacted. The recent Florida Supreme Court ruling indicates serious constitutional questions if the Legislature adopts a program where the state even indirectly supports a second private educational system.

I am delighted that I can do my part to put quality books to the shelves of our local school libraries, ... Often times, school libraries are not provided with enough funding to renew book selections, so the Library of Congress program provides a real boost for these libraries, and helpes keep kids interested in reading.

I am delighted that Toll Brothers has agreed to support this landmark series, the longest running classical radio program in the history of American broadcasting.

I am delighted that Val has joined our program and I am really excited for her to start working with the team. She has a proven record in terms of her work ethic, determination and ability to motivate those around her.

I am disappointed by the tepid manner in which the United Nations has spoken out in defending the program against the scandalous accusations.

I am excited to be associated and working closely with such an experienced team moving this program forward, and I hope my fans see this card as a way to manage their money more effectively.

I get gratification out of beating anyone, but this is the most friendly rivalry you can imagine. I've coached some of those kids. One thing I know about that program is those kids always come to play.

I got a little ahead of myself, and I had to do a three-turn between them. I don't think that one mistake brought the whole program down.

I don't think it's likely that we'll get involved with a bunch of these kids. I don't think it's going to happen. I would tell you that in all honesty that any short-term gain that Virginia or any other college program might gain from having somebody come to their team, I would trade that in a heartbeat for Duke coming back as a strong lacrosse team next year.

I don't think it's right for a men's or women's sport to get cut because we're all out here busting our butt. But I don't think they should get their program back just because they are females.

I don't think it ticks him off anymore. I think Jake has learned to program critics, the media in general.

I'd venture to say there aren't too many other programs in the country where the head coach of a Division I football program checks class. And it's an eye-opener for those student-athletes, I guarantee you, when they're five minutes late for class and there's the head football coach standing at the door tapping his foot looking highly displeased.

I enjoyed coaching at Lamar the past three years and appreciate the hard work the players put in to making the program better. This will allow me to get back to doing the job I came back to Lamar to do in the first place.

GM likely doesn't have enough inventory to maintain a strong sales pace. And inevitably, the employee-pricing program is losing its effectiveness, as eventually happened to zero-percent financing, hot-button bonus cash programs, talk-show host car giveaways and other promotions.

GM's success earlier this summer has really taken its toll on inventory levels for several models, limiting their ability to have another terrific month. And there appears to be relatively little momentum left in GM's employee discount incentive program now that it is in its third month.

Given the response to our scholarship program in the past two years, and with the recent cuts to student loan programs by Congress, it is clear that there is a huge need for these resources. So many GLBT students -- as well as their supporters -- face steep challenges in funding their education, so we are grateful for the generous bequest and donations that make this program possible.

Given the timing and changing requirements for new USAF tankers, the prospects for the current 767 production program to extend uninterrupted into a USAF tanker contract (are) becoming less likely.

Giving back what the game has given you, that's one of the things I want to permeate through the program for the next three years and serve as a basis for the team, ... I hope the players look at it that way, too. You forget how lucky you are to be in a specific situation sometimes. We need to get that feeling going again.

For most people, he's a surprise. But for people inside our program who have seen him and seen where he's come from, we really had high expectations for him this year.

If anybody thinks that North Carolina State is not successful and thinks North Carolina State is not becoming a better program over the last few years, I'm sorry, but I would have to call them an idiot.

If any of them that come through the program are having trouble in math, I'll tutor them. (Teaching) is the most important thing I do.

If any team should have no issues and go out and play their best football, it's us. We're building a program here. That's a challenge that has to be overcome. I didn't like the idea two years ago. But I don't think our kids think, 'Oh, that's a I-AA team.' I think they think it's just another game.

I don't think about that during the season. I will take stock at the end of the year and see what the situation is with the program and see if I still have the enthusiasm for it.

From the league's perspective, we have put into place a program this year and we think it's going to be a very effective program. Luckily, we don't have a problem with doping in our sport.

From the outset, we said that the program was a test and we said that we would be evaluating its success and listening to our customers.

From the answers we received from hundreds of thousands of Hungarian entrepreneurs, it has become clear that Hungary needs a strict budget tightening program and/or an economic policy that establishes new jobs by the hundreds of thousands.

From the beginning, we wanted to compete with Army and Navy. All of the people running our program at the start were West Point graduates.

For the United States this new North Korean nuclear weapons program is an overriding concern that must be resolved swiftly and visibly if we are to move forward with the DPRK (North Korea),

For this caucus to allow a rural infrastructure program to be announced in St. John's is, quite frankly, ridiculous,

For us to be good and take the next step in our program those guys have got to be better, and we've got to have production out of those guys.

I exercise every day. I walk a treadmill and do a weight training program every day at the Wellness Center. I think that allows me to maintain my strength.

I expect a challenging game from Marist. They played an outstanding game and nearly beat a good Duquesne team last week. They were ahead most of the time and played a very physical game. However, I see the desire in our team that we need to win. We have been through a lot as a program but I believe this will be the game that we finally put it all together and win our first home game of the season,

I expect them to go out and play their best each game as a team. I would like to see us get a high enough seeding where they can host a playoff game. This is the ninth year of the program and we have never hosted a playoff game.

I don't want anyone to get hurt. We had a really successful Legion program last year - it's already a long season.

If a mistake was made, we want to tell people about it. The good news is that the program is going to cost less money to taxpayers than we thought, and we hope it signals that evacuees have found places to go.

If it is indeed a risky portion, it is against the import program and quite regrettable.

If it was a concern, I wouldn't have shown up. What's wrong with a little competition? All I asked for was an opportunity to put myself and my program in front of them.

I felt I owed my team more than anything, for being selfish and for not being there. I tried to help my team and help people outside the program and be a good person.

I hated the fact that the program was dead. I'm a product of the program. I wanted to see it back up and going.

I handled all the program activities and he (Butterfield) did the overall operation of the ranch. During my senior year of college Tom was looking for a building to start his boys' ranch. I went with him to look at the building that became the home of Butterfield Boys' Ranch.

I bottomed out at state last year and that was a lot of my motivation today. That, and coach. He's done a lot for this program and we wanted to do well for him.

I bring in books that are interesting to the students but I also try to challenge them a little bit. I love this program because my grandchildren are too little to read to me yet.

I believe the Go Active! Fitness Challenge is important at this level, because it's at school that we start learning good habits. Ever since I was a kid, I've needed to move and be active. Being active, for me, is also about having dreams, working hard to get better and better, having fun doing it and achieving my dreams. I hope this program will encourage young people to be active and have dreams.

I believe we've defined eligibility for that program based on outdated attitudes about what people with significant disabilities are capable of doing in the workplace.

I believe that such an investigation at this point ... would be detrimental to this highly classified program and efforts to reach some accommodation with the administration.
