She has been a tremendous help. She is here everyday and the students who were struggling have just done really well. They just love her and look forward to the classes and the time they spend with her.

I contacted the mother and she came to the school very irate. At that point she made a threat to blow up the school. Then she said that she had a son in the military and that she could get a sniper. She said that the sniper would be waiting in the school parking lot.

We are still struggling everyday for the survival of our culture. We struggle with a way to put things in perspective for the benefit of our people. We try to teach others not to repeat history. This event is still in the forefront of the minds of our people.

Anybody who is hungry, or sick or thirsty — I'm going to help.

I'm trying to put it together to help this team win, ... I think that's what [manager] Frank [Robinson] envisioned when they brought me over here in the first place.

It is a time to pay back friends for their help.
