...actually met him; he's a very nice guy. But the truth is, more so than ever before, I have my own voice, and it's not a girl version of a man. By the way, do you ever see any man called [that]? You never see that kind of a description. You'll never see, "He's a guy version of Lisa Scottoline." I resist that as much as I take it as a compliment. The truth is that every writer, whether it's fiction or nonfiction, is trying to write something truly original and that's what...
...part of the Hendrick racing team, whose drivers finished in the top three spots in the NASCAR standings this year. Hendrick has more resources than any other team, and has been called the New York Yankees of racing. Do you feel you get the same kind of resentment that many fans feel towards the "big guys" like the Yankees who are able to outspend the competition? Not necessarily. Our fan base really respects what we've done as an organization. They respect Rick Hendrick. If [resentment] is a problem, we love it. It means we're doing our jobs...

In fact, the report is an implicit condemnation of the recent strategy adopted by the U.N. peacekeeping mission in Congo, known by its French acronym MONUC. The operation began in 2000 as a way of monitoring the end of a five-year civil war in Congo, but the violence has dragged on for years and the U.N. has been unable to rid the region of insurgents, some of whom crossed the border from Rwanda after the genocide of the 1990s. After taking the lead role in fighting...
...take television. There is too much violence. There is too much sex. Television brings that into my house: how to kill, how to cut off people's heads. It becomes a kind of education. Do you want to educate our young people in violence and sex? It's influencing young people into how to become criminals - young people like to repeat what they see in films. It's creating young people prone to violence, rape and criminality. It's not conservatism. It's saying: how do we deal with these things? It's saying: let's not keep quiet about...
