I believe that the mainstream publishers, DC and Marvel, need to catch up as well. Out of the fifty-odd books that are published each month, just a handful are written by women, and even less of those are written by women of color. It's not right, and it's not good for the companies in the long-term. It's also not good for fans, for readers.
When I was 15, my parents left town for a month. They hid the keys to the car, but I found them.
A lot of young people think they're invincible, but the truth is young people are knuckleheads. . . Now young people can get insurance for as little as $50 a month, less than the cost of gym shoes.
Lots of medications work for a month, or a year, and then stop working.
Global central banks are working hard to lift their economies through an aggressively easy monetary policy. The ECB [European Central Bank] and BOJ [Bank of Japan] are buying tens of billions of bonds and other financial securities each month in an effort to stimulate their economies, which is pushing down rates everywhere, including in the U. S.
They asked me what year it was, what month it was, etc. I easily answered these stupid questions.
Indeed the river is a perpetual gala, and boasts each month a new ornament.
We don't have a caucus, because we differ on so many views. Some of us are pro-choice, some are not. We'll take the issue of drilling, for example: Lisa Murkowski would want to drill in ANWAR, Maria Cantwell, Barbara Boxer, and most of us would say no, and so we don't. But we get together once a month for dinner, and we have three rules: no memos, no staff, and no leaks; and we get together for friendship. In fact, we're having a dinner tonight. We just have drinks and talk about life and times.
In high school, my first thing ever was I played Tony in West Side Story when I was about 17. I was a really shy kid and I just like forced myself to learn how to sing this one month because I loved West Side Story so much and I somehow managed to get the role. I had an afro and glasses, and the guy who cast me goes, "All right, the first thing to go is the afro and the next thing, I'm going to buy you contacts and we're going to get you. . . " So he kind of molded me into what it had to - that's still probably the hardest role I've every played in anything, the most taxing role.
The last 29 days of the month are the toughest!
As we celebrate Black History Month we should be grateful for the achievements they made and inspired by their legacies to continue their work.
To this day, my haircut is the number two clippers, which I apply to myself every month.
So we take a lot of pride in that. It's really on us to turn this thing around. I think this last month we've done just that. We've pointed ourself in the direction that we want to be, and I think we're starting to head towards that. Right now we're in a nice rhythm.
When you're getting $2,000 a month in the minors, it's hard not to eat Taco Bell every day.
Over the past month, Muslims have fasted, taking no food or water during daylight hours, in order to refocus their minds on faith and redirect their hearts to charity. Muslims worldwide have stretched out a hand of mercy to those in need. Charity tables at which the poor can break their fast line the streets of cities and towns. And gifts of food and clothing and money are distributed to ensure that all share in God's abundance. Muslims often invite members of other families to their evening iftar meals, demonstrating a spirit of tolerance.
I am a natural optimist but there were times when (it seemed like) I was doing nothing but adding up on the back of envelope what I had to pay this month.
Half voluntarily, half Winston's older brother [William] would take me in, saying, "Daddy, I think you oughta do this. " And I'd say, "I think you're right, maybe I do need it. " Sometimes a week later I'd leave the place; sometimes I'd stick it out for a month.
You don't really have to go anywhere in particular in New York City to have a good time. In every part of town, there's always something going on. It helps to know people there, too, because everything changes so fast, and they will be able to point out what's hot this month.
If you go to a coffee shop or at the airport, and you're using open wireless, I would use a VPN service that you could subscribe for 10 bucks a month. Everything is encrypted in an encryption tunnel, so a hacker cannot tamper with your connection.
I couldn't believe I hit. 342. I hit. 333 one month in Triple-A. Otherwise, I hit. 279 in the minor leagues. I'm proud of myself.
