DH: "Death as a way of life"

Today's quote comes from Allen G. Breed and Vicki Smith's article, "Death as a way of life - Coal mining brings uncertain future", in the Durango Herald. Since AWoL was used in the article's title and not in the body, I'll just quote the first paragraph:

"Down the road from the disaster scene at the Upper Big Branch Coal Mine, two unassuming brick buildings stand side by side, hugging the bank of the Big Coal River. One is the Assembly of God Church; the other is the meeting hall of Local 6608 of the United Mine Workers Union."

SMH: "is destroying a way of life"

Today's quote comes from the 3rd paragraph of Jacob Saulwick's article, "Christmas Islanders face rapid change to way of life", from the Sydney Morning Herald:

"And, among the locals, opinion is splintering sharply about the impact of the mammoth detention facilities. The island's population has swollen from about 1000 to more than 3500, though more than half are in detention. Some say the influx of officials, security guards, interpreters, police and teachers is destroying a way of life. Others are resigned to it."

CT: "I love this way of life"

MB: "images that revolve around the Filipino way of life"

This quote is from the 6th paragraph from the article, "Imelda Cajipe-Andaya: A Filipina’s Social Engagement" in today's issue of the Manila Bulletin:

"This longing for national identity led Endaya to engulf herself in images that revolve around the Filipino way of life and traditions. Apart from the nationalist perspective that Endaya incorporates into her work, she also burdens herself with the responsibility of pursuing the advancement of feminine identity in her arts. “I draw inspiration from my day to day experience and the history of women before me. Women need voices and it needs to be projected, it needs to be heard,” Endaya stresses."

WP: "thereby preserving their way of life"

The actual context of this quote is from the tenth paragraph of the article, "Apple's iPad makes cover of Time, Newsweek" in today's Style section of the Washington Post, written by Howard Kurtz:

"Print reviewers might harbor a deep-seated wish that this tablet computer proves capable of rescuing their battered business, thereby preserving their way of life. What's more, the folks who write about technology adore fancy gizmos. Many are Mac users. They revel in the Apple-orchestrated drama of these rollouts."

AlterNet: "what amounts to wrecking our way of life"

Today's quote comes from the 16th paragraph of a blog from AlterNet, "Are Bailouts for the Super-Rich Inevitable? Ask Paul Krugman":

"It’s just not right or sane to let private bankers and investors walk off again and again with billions of taxpayer dollars for what amounts to wrecking our way of life. But alas, this is the nightmare we’re going to keep having until our best thinkers put forth a compelling vision to end the insanity."

This quote kicks off the 7th paragraph of a blog entry from the Washington Post's Story Lab, "Test of time: How to find 30 hours of leisure a week":

"Circumstances conspired to force her to choose a different way of life. She'd dropped out of corporate America when the hours and commute got to be too demanding. Then her husband, a scientist, was laid off. He was unemployed for six months. They'd just finished a massive remodel on their Massachusetts home and were in deep debt."
