Aaron Copland

Anna Maria Chavez
A good two years after Hurricane Katrina I remember feeling so devastated and so ignorant that there was so much damage still left.

AnnaLynne McCord
The relationship of Trump to Russia has been reported on, and the activity to change the Republican platform happened openly, and Trump's support for Russian policy - Russia's views of Europe and its views of NATO - have been stated. So it's not like this is secret.

Anthony Rendon
I've stated my position, and that is we do not need a contraption to play the game of golf. I would hope that we'd play under one set of rules, and those rules would include a ban on the long putter hooked to the body in some way, shape or form.

Asia Kate Dillon
The Stockholm street style is distinctive, with ensembles that exemplify the city's understated elegance.

In 2011, when a tsunami devastated Japan and created the disaster at the Fukushima nuclear facility, the United States stood shoulder-to-shoulder with our Japanese allies to respond and rebuild.
I have also seen it stated that Capital punishment is murder in its worst form. I should like to know upon what principle of human society these assertions are based and justified.

The Federal Government is achieving its stated goal of helping more minorities go from being renters to being owners.
Bernanke and company are trying to reflate the economy with almost stated objective of inflation at 2 percent and higher in order to provide some type of safety margin for a future recession. That's where they want to go.

Most elderly are retirees with relatively low incomes. But some may possess assets, and they will be classified as poor. As such, the elderly poverty rate could be overstated.

All my music is very simple in that melody is usually clearly stated.
