Certainly Quotes
We're working constantly to get the island cleaned up. Every day you come out, things look a little better. We're getting there, but we're not completely done with everything that needs to be done. We've certainly made a lot of improvements, especially compared to this time last year.

Almost Quotes
We asked her if she has ever been out on a boat. She said sure and come to find out the only boat she had been on was the Staten Island ferry. It's certainly not a flat bottom boat, ... She never did figure out how to get up and walk from one end to the other. Every time she got up she nearly turned the boat over. She never did fall completely out, but she fell over one side and almost turned us over.

Belong Quotes
The parents have been supportive without intruding on decisions that belong to the coaching staff. The boys have worked hard. Our style of play on offense will be nifty this year. I wouldn't say this to every team, but this group is good enough to throw the behind-the- back-pass, the no-look pass, open things up a little. We hope to provide Long Island with all the entertainment that big-time college lacrosse has to offer.

Against Quotes
The defensive back has the shortest memory on the field. People are going to make some plays and you're out there on an island so, the percentages are against you. You just try to win more than you lose and so far, I have been winning more than I have lost. It's a minor setback. I'm back focused and back on my game. I feel good right now and I feel like I'm going to make some plays this week.

Christmas Quotes
We're surprised she would have spent that long away from her nest when she had a chick. That begs the question: Why does she need to go that far? It raises the suspicion that fish resources around Christmas Island are not currently adequate. That might explain the slow and gradual decline of the bird.

Alien Quotes
Those who landed in Rhode Island or Utah, I doubt will stay, ... But those in Baton Rouge, Shreveport, Dallas or Houston are more likely to stay because it is not such an alien culture. And of those who come back, what will the mix be? More African-Americans? More whites? You could argue either way.

Electronic filing of tax payments has proven to be an easy and cost-efficient solution for Rhode Island business tax payers. Online tax payments and filings have been a priority for the Division of Taxation, and we are pleased to be able to offer such a comprehensive suite of over 50 different tax types payable via the Internet and telephone.

College Quotes
I've worked with students before who went off island for college and only were able to take it for a semester or so because they were in a culture shock. Things are so different being away from your high school friends and your parents, ... The shock is so great ... they come back home.

Allow Quotes
Compared to yesterday the front end was in bad condition. During the race I felt vibration and the bike didn't allow me to ride well. Then all of a sudden the bike switched off and that's when my race ended. The only thing we can do is to analyse the data to find the problem. This is a weekend to put in the archive and hope for a better performance at Phillip Island where I finished eighth last year.
