I am so pleased to have such a key British cultural player to work with our team,

He had the normal everyday worries everyone has.

We're proud to have her part of our family. There's no question in anyone's mind -- she's the reigning world champion -- that she is the best in the world. She's a great person. She has been an absolute pleasure to work with.

Kids consume so many empty calories today. We wanted to take a sweet treat that kids will eat a lot of anyway and make it healthier and lower in calories.

I think it's one of the great performance arts centers in the world. The performing arts in Australia have blossomed, I think, largely because of the role that this building plays.

We have worked with Bode for several years now and know the type of person he is. Yes, he has been provocative, but we also recognize that he's revolutionized his sport and has energized the Turin Games, which is a positive for all of us who are vested in their success.

We are likely to see prices continue to fall given the lovely weather and the likelihood of rising inventories.

We thought for sure Reynolds' board would fight this to remain independent, ... Frankly I didn't think this merger would take place. I'm just stunned.

We've clearly been getting support from the weather. Crude oil, distillate and gasoline supplies are all higher while demand is lower. There really isn't a bullish cloud on the horizon.

There is plenty of crude oil around, which makes geopolitical problems a lot less pressing.

We're hoping we can get somebody to buy the house who is willing to carry on the tradition. We're willing to make a Christmas package part of the sale.

Crude oil and petroleum product inventories are robust. The numbers suggest that fears that gasoline supplies would fall through the floor as refineries performed maintenance were exaggerated. Some of the funds may be selling as they re-evaluate the value of futures as an investment.

The Olympics and the NFL are the No. 1 and No. 2 most important sporting events Americans are interested in.

Although there has been solid theory on the matter for quite some time, these results provide the first definitive proof at the molecular level that sexual reproduction magnifies the efficiency of natural selection in eliminating deleterious mutations from populations.

It's finally sunk in that demand isn't roaring. That was the story in 2004, but that's no longer the case.

It's about those individuals that represent us, that represent society and, I think, that represent everything that's right about sports and, frankly, what's right about our society -- all of us being the best we hope to be. Which is why the Olympic rings sits on my business card today. It's about being your best.

Gasoline demand normally drops off at this time of year. This year we are seeing an additional decline.

The Iranian statement that they would continue to ship oil has reduced the perceived threat, which has been the main pillar supporting the market. It doesn't appear that any action will be taken for a few months, when the market should be weaker.

The IEA report confirms the bearish sentiment in the market. Inventories are more than adequate, but geopolitical worries have been supporting prices. We haven't heard anything inflammatory from Iran's president recently.
