We are constantly working towards the highest level of compliance possible.

Because the competitive landscape of the web is such that the site which looks and works best gets the most traffic, developers and designers put a premium on the presentation of that content and let structural markup take a back seat.

It's all about people. It's about networking and being nice to people and not burning any bridges. Your book is going to impress, but in the end it is people that are going to hire you.

Our old site did not have very good support for the disabled, but our new site should soon have much better support. With all of our content in divs now, we can hide all but the relevant chunks of content and navigation with a simple alternate CSS file.

Writing old school HTML code was never very much fun but now it's getting downright tedious for most people.

If I somehow felt like having a site which strictly validates was an indication of my manhood, maybe I'd do it, but it really means very little to me. We're mavericks over here, what can we say?

Now that digital lifestyle devices, tablets, wireless phones, and other Internet appliances are beginning to come of age, we need to worry about presenting our content to these devices so that it is optimized for their display capabilities.

For the tiny percentage of people who are negatively affected by our embracing of standards, they can just get their sports somewhere else in the meantime. It's not like we're denying them hospital care.

I don't start with a design objective, I start with a communication objective. I feel my project is successful if it communicates what it is supposed to communicate.

I vertically center things in tables a lot, and the fact that there is no way to control vertical positioning in divs affects the way we do things across the board.

You can have information and ease of use and have artistic integrity at the same time. The art of being a good Web designer is getting yourself into that middle ground and treating it as a final destination instead of as a compromise.

We found a way to make things look great to the human eye through the window of a graphical web browser without worrying about what everything looked like under the hood.

Blogs are a great way to monitor and even participate in the chatter about your new site.

We fully expect our competitors to join us in embracing open standards with their next redesigns.

For most of the '90s and the first part of this decade, content providers who wanted to publish online only needed to worry about the graphical web browser.

We are constantly working towards the highest level of compliance possible.

We reduced the size of our front page code by about 50%, and by using absolute positioning, we are able to display important parts of the page before other parts may have fully loaded yet.

If I was designing a web site for elementary school children, I might have a much higher percentage of older computers with outdated browsers since keeping up with browser and hardware technology has not traditionally been a strong point of most elementary schools.

Its all about people. Its about networking and being nice to people and not burning any bridges. Your book is going to impress but in the end it is people that are going to hire you.

It's all about people. It's about networking and being nice to people and not burning any bridges.

I'm not terribly happy about rock and roll. Certain rock music is uninspiring, numbing; it makes you feel like an idiot.

I guess I've been training in the theater for as long as I can remember.

I think I got spoiled and that writing a short story and getting it published, or writing a novel and getting it published, you pretty much get to do the first, second and third draft yourself without a whole lot of interference.

The thing I can't figure out is why I have an undeniable compulsion to clean public spaces, airplane bathrooms, restaurant flatware, hotel gyms and Chapstick containers... yet I have no desire to make my own bed. Ever. Seriously, who made me, and where am I from?

I had been living with dialysis for three years or so, and the new kidney felt like a reprieve, a new gift of life. I felt alive again and I guess that has had an effect on my use of colour.

In some cases, corporations engaged in this activity have as much as 16 percent of their profits generated through the holding of 'janitor's insurance.'

Maybe I'm old-fashioned, but I have to write everything down.

You can repeat things because it's on a set and there are actors. But if it's a great moment and you don't capture it, it's rare to get that moment again.

If you keep your mouth shut you will never put your foot in it.

Life is just one cup of coffee after another and dont look for anything else.

I like the mystery of seeing someone like Mickey Rourke do his thing. I don't know how he does it, but I'm glad he does it.

If there is a dream or a goal that you want you have to go for it 100%. Give all you have for the goals that you have.

You're more likely to finish a book you enjoy, than one that feels like literary drudgery.

All my career, all that I've really done has been based on emotion and intuition and gravitating toward what sounds good.

San Francisco is a city with the assets of a metropolis without the disadvantages of size and industry.

I shop for clothes when I have time - early in the morning or late at night.

The entire island knows our father, Fred Hemmings, Jr. - kids, adults, surfers, the governor, grocery clerks, gang members who call our house at night and threaten to kill us as soon as they get out of jail. Fred was a world-champion surfer and is now a well-known, controversial politician.

Hacking was the only entertainment that would occupy my mind - like a huge video game, but with real consequences. I could have evaded the FBI a lot longer if I had been able to control my passion for hacking.

Ensuring quality higher education is one of the most important things we can do for future generations.

Oh dont lets ask for the moon. Weve already got the stars.

The one excellent thing that can be learned from a lion is that whatever a man intends doing should be done by him with a whole-hearted and strenuous effort.

Dont give up be positive and if you know someone who knows someone at a record company dont stop beating down their door till you get heard. Dont ever say itll never happen or itll never happen.

Love thou the rose, yet leave it on its stem.

I lost my mother when I was 7 and they put her in a mental hospital. My brother and I watched her being taken away in a strait jacket. That's something you never forget. And my stepmother was like in the movie 'Precious.' I couldn't handle it. So I said to myself, 'I don't have a mother. I don't need one. I'm going to let music be my mother.'
