One of a handful of films made in Detroit, ‘8 Mile’ doesn’t feature the Motown renaissance that Mayor Coleman A. Young dreamed of in the 1970s. Instead, it’s the beaten-down city: 8 Mile refers to the line of demarcation between Detroit and suburban, mostly white Oakland County.
I’m enjoying prison ministry, particularly with the women in Hudson County Jail who have suffered tremendously in their lives.
I played in three countries. I played in two World Series. But I never found anything to match the joy and the laughter those years with the Eagles brought me. The city and county loved us.
Yorkshire knew how important Scarborough was for me. So I was awarded my county cap there in 2011. That first cap is one of the most precious things I own. The club didn’t tell me that I’d be receiving it, but instead tipped off my mum, making sure she saw the presentation.
I was born in Fayette County, over in Lexington, Kentucky, but I was raised most of my life in Paintsville.
If you look at history we’ve had since I’ve been in office, in an environment where we haven’t had earmarks, we’ve still been able to get tens of millions of dollars for McLennan County.
Should the time come when the county family will be taken away, then the parish will feel for some time like a mouth from which a molar has been drawn – there will be a vacancy that will cause unrest and discomfort.
In the ’70s, as a kid, someone took me to a Tournee of Animation festival at the L.A. County Museum of Art.
The Puente Hills Landfill, about sixteen miles east of downtown Los Angeles, serves 5 million people in seventy-eight California cities, one of six landfills operated by the Sanitation Districts of L.A. County.
I’m very, very lucky to be a working actor, but I’ve also been careful. I don’t just take anything. ‘Durham County’ came to me. You have to look at the quality of work you do, and ‘Durham’ set the standard. I wait for things that keep me really interested.
I think ‘chuffed to bits’ is a very Yorkshire way of describing my feelings for my friend and county team-mate Joe Root on his promotion to England captain.
Many England girls have grown up playing men’s cricket and trained in county men’s academies, so they’ve faced 70-80 mph bowling. So when it comes to the women’s game you have a 75mph bowler who’s not as tall and not getting as much bounce, you feel more assured.
If you know sports in Dade County, you know me.
Being elected to serve the people of every county, every city, every legislative district, and every community in between helps me realize just how big and diverse our state really is.
The beautiful thing about L.A. is that you have 50 countries in one county. Diversity brings power and muscle.
Look, the whole world wants to modernize, and when you look to what they mean by modernizing, they mean Americanize. Would a modern Greek prefer to live in Orange County than Piraeus? Yes. Absolutely.
Taxation is probably one of the biggest problems this state is facing, especially in Cook County. I think Cook County is one of the counties a lot of people don’t want to live in anymore.
My life started on the banks of the Boyne in County Meath. Navan is the name of the town; only me, Mom, Dad.
No disrespect to county cricket but when you’re playing for England it is the ultimate, it is what has always driven me to push myself above and beyond.
The silver Thames takes some part of this county in its journey to Oxford.
The nature of the beast is that film is a director’s medium. It’s not a Tracy Letts play, it’s a John Wells film. ‘August: Osage County,’ as a play, is done. Written. On the shelf. It’ll be performed in its entirety for years.
To be white in America is to have the confidence to say, without a second thought: this space, this neighborhood, this city, this county, this country is mine.
I went to high school in Orange County.
Nu shu means women’s writing. And it was a secret writing system that was invented by women, used by women and kept a secret by women in one very remote county in China for a thousand years. It’s the only language that was invented and used by women to have been found anywhere in the world.
How much should the state be involved in regulating the growth in communities when you already have a county doing it, or a city doing it?
I think my experience as an actor helps me to write anything. It certainly helped me to write ‘August Osage County.’ It helps me to write any play that I’m working on because I think one of the things I do well is write good roles for actors.
Surprisingly, it was not an American but a British company that opened an amusement park in 2007 called Dickens World, located in the English county of Kent, complete with an Ebenezer Scrooge Haunted House, a Great Expectations Boat Ride and the as-advertised ‘costumed Dickensian characters.’
If you’re an illegal alien in Prince William County, I’d get out.
I thought incorporating Columbus and Platte County into the 1st District was a good idea.
I don’t fund county roads.
I used to surf up in Ventura County at Silver Strand; plus, I’ve played up there many times.
My residents don’t know who a federal officer is or a local police officer or a county deputy or a state patroller. They don’t know, and they don’t care. It’s all the same to them.
I know what it’s like to be a teenager in Orange County. I know what it’s like to be a kid in L.A. I know what it’s like to not have any money and have your lights turned off. I know what it’s like to live in a house with five rooms.
I was my father’s son and my mother’s daughter. There was never any time when I felt I wasn’t equally capable – whether it was being the only girl in the county who could hit a jump shot in basketball or playing first base in the baseball with the boys. I was always encouraged to do whatever I wanted to do.
I actually found CrossFit on a run from my house in Orange County. I moved around with it for a while, which is the best part about it. I love it, but it was something I did because I enjoyed the camaraderie aspect of it, not so much the competing side of it.
If people are able to run the affairs of a village well, eventually they’ll be able to run a township, and a county.
The embargo doesn’t affect the United States, not even minimally; all of Cuba’s economy is smaller than that of Miami-Dade County, and the ones who suffer the most are Cubans. If you talk to them in the street, they’re the ones most interested in the opening of a free market in their country.
I want the people of Franklin County to know how much I care about them.
I came from the Sticks, literally. I grew up in Oglethorpe County, Georgia, just outside Athens, Georgia.
With more than 1,300 sites of care, VA operates the largest integrated health care system in the county.
I spent many years of my childhood in Wyoming County and my roots are deep there.
Growing up in Orange County, it was all O.C. punk, L.A. punk. Black Flag, all the SST stuff.
I know all about Orange County.
I live in Hollywood, California. It’s absolutely nothing like Absaroka County, Wyoming. For me, it’s a great escape and I really enjoy it.
The 2020 Election is believed to be the most important in our lifetime. Therefore, I’ve chosen to become more involved in the voting process by using my social media platform to encourage voting and my facility as a Dekalb County early voting polling station.
My mum played darts for the county. But only in the B team.
There are many Sheriff Arpaios. People who have taken to local city, county, and state governments across the county the idea that immigrants are the problem. That immigrants are to blame.
I beg you do not vote for stills and open bar-rooms in the county.
My mother’s people are Old Order Mennonite – horse and buggy Mennonite, very close cousins to the Amish. I grew up in Lancaster County and lived near Amish farm land.
I live in the county where my mother was born and buried.
I have worked closely with many of our county commissioners, mayors, local transportation officials, and others to determine project needs in the 18th District, and they deserve a great deal of thanks for today’s victory on the House floor.
The average citizen in this county has more intelligence and sense in his little finger than the editor of ‘The New York Times’ has in his whole head.
I want to shake things up like ‘Bloom County’ did.
I swam for the county when I was 12. You wouldn’t think it to look at me now, but I’m as graceful as a seal.
I played in goal for Notts County juniors. I liked that sense that goalkeepers were outsiders, mavericks. But I stopped when I realised I wasn’t going to grow any more. I’m 5ft 7ins so I couldn’t have been a professional.
It’s troubling that by eliminating weekend voting hours, the state of Ohio specifically banned a popular voting time of choice for minorities. In Cuyahoga County, which I represent, 56 percent of weekend voters in 2008 were African American while adult African Americans comprise 28 percent of the county population.
The work I have done in private practice has been assisting companies and organizations to work with an incredibly complex federal government. I’m proud of the impact I’ve had for these organizations, including organizations here in Pinellas County.
The whole of Cornwall has become antiseptic. When I was growing up in St. Austell, the county was wonderfully rough and workish. These days it is polite and Disney-fied.
