accounts crude depends driven foreign gallon global price projected sources states supply united
The price of crude oil accounts for 55 percent of the price of a gallon of gasoline, driven by global supply and demand. The United States depends on foreign sources of oil for 62 percent of our nation's supply. By 2010, this is projected to jump to 75 percent.
consumers gasoline katrina pumped remarkably rita turned united
The United States' gasoline industry, as Hurricanes Katrina and Rita demonstrated, is remarkably fragile. And the process of how oil is pumped from the ground, turned into gasoline and distributed to consumers is complicated.
thinking long priorities
I think four Olympics is probably enough. Five Olympics is a long time, but there's nothing wrong with that if I'm into it and I'm healthy and my priorities can fit around that.
mean drunk challenges
There's been times when I've been in really tough shape at the top of the course. Talk about a hard challenge right there. I mean, if you ever tried to ski when you're wasted, it's not easy. Try and ski a slalom when … you hit a gate less than every one a second, so it's risky, you know. You're putting your life at risk there. It's like driving drunk only there's no rules about it in ski racing.
years noses afternoon
I had crashes when I was small and Gumby-like that would have killed me now. I would just fly off jumps and go 40 or 50 meters when I was 6 years old - break skis, smash my goggles and get a bloody nose and go crawl inside for a little while and then come back out and ski more in the afternoon.
running kids wife
Some of them I probably would like. Some of my fans probably beat their wives or run over little kids and they just happen to watch me on TV and like the way I ski. Obviously I clearly wouldn't like that person if I knew 'em better.
lows adrenaline huge
A huge adrenaline rush is usually followed by a pretty low point.
racing gone skis
From 1999 to 2003 was the peak of equipment in ski racing. Since then, it's all gone in the wrong direction.
wish would-be feels
If I could wish one thing for anyone, it would be to not have to do anything his entire life-just go along and when you feel like doing something, do it.
people care judgment
I don't care what other people's judgments come down to-I care what my judgments come down to.
team racing shapes
My team has been very unreceptive about the fact that I consistently show them that I train slightly differently than they do, that I consistently show them that I am in better shape for ski racing than anyone else on the team.
sports racing skiing
I don't put anything in front of taking ski racing and sports seriously.
anybody couple cover effort hit home kids team
We need a team effort to cover for him. We don't have anybody who will probably hit 15 home runs, but we have a couple of kids with power.
arm believe happened pain quick
When this happened, he said there was no pain, it happened so quick he could not believe his arm was gone.
