MacKenzie is a player with the right attitude and the natural ability to go after every ball and to be a spark on the field. We feel MacKenzie can be a very strong player for us because she has potential in several different positions on the field.

Becca Kohli

We have quantitative data on several species and each example shows that a species can make significant progress. But that progress is measured in decades. All of the species (in the report) are still on the list and are likely to remain on the list for many decades to come.

Michael Bean

She got up several times, crying with her head in her hands, but not loud outbursts.

Michelle Gonzales

Dell's problems may take several quarters to work through.

David Wong

These are just the people I've confirmed. I'm still shaping up the final plans. We'll also have several service agencies to voice questions.

Cody Ford

The governor has spoken with Sen. Barron on several occasions about these bills and the need to focus on them. He's asked for Sen. Barron's help with getting the Legislature to focus on them.

Jeff Emerson

It was a high-intensity explosion and its noise was heard in several parts of the city. It appears that the KFC was the target.

Mushtaq Shah

We haven't seen these violent moves [in prices] in several weeks.

George Gero

What the hell has conservation done? The World Wildlife Fund must have spent several billion pounds, it hasn't saved the panda, tiger, nothing.

David Bellamy

Obviously hitting was our problem. We sat tonight. We made several mental errors then allowed them three hits. Then we couldn't get them back.

Tyann Copeland

Several wineries said they wanted to sponsor 'Cabaret' next year, and people were asking how they could donate.

Millie Butler

Alison will be a huge asset to the center, having several years experience in teaching and curriculum development, and organizing events for large and small groups at her last position.

Denis Thomas

Management did outline several actions that they plan to take that should help return the company to more profitability. This will include several hundred million dollars in charges in the December quarter.

Michael Ching

They fought back several times and got back in the game. There was a lot of intense defense at the end. Our boys really stepped up and got some key steals and made a couple of shots.

Mike Raidt

What I saw left behind ... I saw kind notes of wishing well to the persons who were coming in from several senior staff members to other people.

Mark Lindsay

The secretary is making no statements of any kind about Thoroughbred. Because she will be sitting, in effect, as a judge in this case, she is not discussing it with others. Nor is she reading the expressions of opinion that several people have sent to the cabinet since release of the hearing officer's recommendation. But it is her intention to make an objective ruling.

Chuck Wolfe

Several passing motorists tried to warn him by honking their horns and flashing their lights, ... And he continued, exit after exit.

Fred Klein

For several days there has been quite intensive fighting.

Sergei Yastrzhembsky

This is the most parity we have had at the parish tournament in several years.

Charles Vidrine

He got kicked several times. He was walking bowlegged for awhile.

Doug Gay

This is just the beginning. There are several million tons in the general vicinity (of East Texas).

Joe Murray

They aren't able to criticize her, that would help Schroeder. But if Merkel becomes chancellor, then she will be the candidate again in 2007, pushing back their political ambitions for several years.

Gero Neugebauer

We are also expecting several teachers to retire.

Thomas Finlan

We're being told it could be several weeks before these people are allowed to go back home.

Dave Hall

We've gone from 50 to 60 bicycle commuters Downtown in 2002 to several hundred in 2005. We've also gotten lots more requests for information on cycling in the city.

David Hoffman

We continue to aggressively restructure the operations of our core holdings and have taken several key steps to improve the prospects of these businesses.

David Wetherell

We are in discussion with MTSU and Belmont with several of their players. There are no age limits. Some of the top (high school) players in this area very likely will be prospects or potential players for this team.

Chris Price

We've looked at this situation the last several days and we weren't able to come to an agreement. We'll keep working on it in the next several days and see if we can work something out.

Jimmy Sexton

One of my friends calls it my signature piece. It's a first-person poem, and it does kind of capture my personality. I've always referred to it as one of my several surrealistic poems because I take life experiences and turn them into animated scenarios.

Patrick Wright

We have been in discussions with a number of interested parties over the last several months, ... But this mornings news coverage has been much more extensive.

Bruce Lakefield

We were patient at the plate. We had several hitters with multiple hits.

Shay Cox

Last year we focused on placing one or more of our flagship products at the top semiconductor manufacturers in the world as ranked by spending. Capacity expansion plans announced by several of these customers are contributing to our more optimistic outlook, and we are also experiencing increasing demand for our legacy products.

Don Mitchell

We have taken calls from several people. We're still looking for volunteers.

Sally Mackey

Why can't the average citizen? That's what I've been promoting in the last several years.

Buzz Aldrin

He was made to lay there for several hours and within those several hours he ended up wetting himself. After that happened, the coach still didn't let him up.

Stacy Robinson

I didn't think we were giving them easy looks. Several of those [shots] were well beyond the arc.

Boyd Jones

Some people feel like we didn't do anything to him. But I imagine by suspending him, I took several million dollars away from Lawrence Phillips. He's paid a price.

Tom Osborne

He may or may not have viewed himself as a fine artist, but he did photos for himself as well as commercial photos. We have several samples of his Pyramid Lake photos that he did for himself. He viewed his commercial work as sales items to make money and saw his landscapes as more artistic.

Lee Brumbaugh

I know of several, myself included.

David Mosrie

There are several prosecution witnesses who have cut deals or received substantial consideration for their testimony.

Mark Retana

The hope is that pen pal relationships will develop. The goal is to communicate directly with specific middle schools over the next several months.

Leslie Wilson

People sold bonds excessively the past several days and yields became high enough to attract buyers. Declines in stocks are giving people a chance to pay more attention to the value of bonds.

Xinyi Lu

Several second later the officers heard a gun shot.

David Procopio

There were several leads and/or calls that came in on Sunday indicating that he was in Shreveport. Using that information we were able to narrow down the area.

Marianne Matus

Several of San Antonio area districts fare better than many other urban districts.

Jay Greene

Industry experts forecast a positive outlook for the hotel industry for at least the next several years. We have been one of the largest private acquirers of hotel real estate in the past three years, and we expect to continue that pace.

Gary Mendell

He's a nice young man, he's played with Arnold several times and made a big impression on him.

Scott Wellington

Dinners back then were the event of the evening ? it took several hours to eat. I guess you could say they ate enough to sink a ship.

David Kaplan

There were several people realized something was up when they saw a bit of an orange glow.

Laurie Brown

We did what we needed to on defense to win. Tyler Harrington had an absolutely fabulous game at defensive end for us. He had three tackles for losses. David Mullen had two sacks and several hurries. Those hurries helped our defensive backs pick off four passes.

Greg Rigoni

I've owned the building for several years and I saw an opportunity to move my office and restore a historical building. I love these old building and want to see them preserved.

Matt Kennedy

POLYGAMY, n. A house of atonement, or expiatory chapel, fitted with several stools of repentance, as distinguished from monogamy, which has but one.

Ambrose Bierce

We're talking to several individuals. Nobody's in custody right now.

Jimmy Lee

For the past several years, the University of California [system] has not been offering education doctorates, except ... in limited partnership with some Cal State campuses. There's a huge need for administrators with doctorate degrees.

Wendy Gordon

There are several approaches to anything, but I wouldn't be able to do it in his way, using all that technology, computers, e-mail.

Marcello Lippi

Why did they wait several months to respond to attacks from unions? ... They made bad political decisions all the way through.

Allan Hoffenblum

I think if we'd gotten to the national tournament, she would have been able to display (her talents). I watched several of the (national tournament) games on the Internet and I think she can play with the best of them.

Barb Felderman

At the very least we will be able to pick up very quickly what the side effects are. And this is something that standard clinical testing doesn't (offer) for several years.

Larry Kramer

Lehigh dining services will offer several new options for spring.

Sue Flederbach

That's likely to remain the case until we start to resolve a few of the issues overhanging the markets include interest rates, energy prices and the strength of the economy over the next several months.

Michael Sheldon

We have a mixed bag of partners. Several of our integrators are small. Size doesn't matter.

Dave Shepard

Further adding, 'Increased intakes of polyunsaturated fat also probably explain most of the major declines in coronary mortality in the United States, United Kingdom and Australia over several decades.

Walter Willett

They've already been in the process of doing that for several months now.

Jacob Dipietre

In 1997 we lost our home in Lincoln Drive. But this is way worse, magnified by several hundred thousand times.

Vince Ames

We're going to make an effort to communicate with Tiger and several other players . . . and express our great desire for them come to Milwaukee.

Dan Croak

Small things are adding up. We're having several good innings but we're letting one inning get us in a hole we can't get out of. If we can solve that, we'll be in good shape.

Chris Cozort

The results exhibited the first clear signs that the credit cycle has begun to turn. For the first time in many quarters, several banks reported higher loan loss provisions than we (or the market) had been expecting.

Marc Rubinstein

That's not a question I'm prepared to answer either way. Coach and I have talked several times this year. As we do with any of our coaches, we will sit down … early in the week and have a discussion.

Brian Hutchinson

We had several opportunities to keep it close, but every time we did, we kept squandering it. We'd have a breakaway, and we would either have a bad pass or pass it into a crowd. Or we'd kick it out of bounds.

Rick Freeman

I've always defended Shania. She not only opened doors; she knocked several down.

Faith Hill

He's asked several times to return to Washington. ... He'd like to die here. And we have declined because we want to ensure that he never returns to this community where he harmed children.

Susan Gibbs

The whole thing is a process, which only moves along centimeter by centimeter, ... Even if Iraq would cooperate immediately, actively and unconditionally with us, we would need several months.

Hans Blix

I saw one destroyer go down and not come up. I saw several go down and never imagined that they would come up but they were well-buttoned up.

Leo Latlip

She was nine when she came in, and we had her several months. Her home life was not the best. She was expected to be the mom - we had to teach her how to be a kid. She loved baking cookies with me.

Brenda Webb

We had several opportunities to score in the game, but we couldn't make the big play on offense.

Chuck Wright

We also clean up the cabinets and if necessary repaint them, before holding them in stores awaiting call-off by Orange. Refurbishment saves several thousands of pounds per cabinet compared to purchasing new product.

Bob Peters

This unforeseen resurgence of a category pronounced dead back in 2004 is attributable to several factors, but value and digital media attributes lead the pack.

Toni Duboise

I can remember several times where kids had to be hospitalized for weeks and had medical problems that lasted close to a year.

Capt. Chuck Moad

We don't know when he's going to be back. He'll be out for several weeks. That's a big deal.

Greg Strobel

He was hospitalized several days ago on a medical prescription. But I will not comment on the matter. I'm just confirming the fact of his hospitalization.

Natalia Terekhova

I said, I myself eat fresh fish several times a week and give it to my children.

Jens Stoltenberg

Southern played good defense, but the opportunities we missed weren't about the defense. Several times we had open shots and just missed. When you miss easy shots against a team like Southern, it comes back to haunt you.

Van Holt

You see her now. She once got into several cans of Red Bull. Talk about hyper.

Tia Styles

There was tough competition there and that made it tough, but we kind of fell apart in several areas.

Steve Peck

Usually you'll find one group -- the line, the linebackers or the secondary -- that's better than another, but this defense is just as good in every area. It's the best defense I've ever coached against. I've been looking for weaknesses for several weeks and I can't seem to find one.

Jimbo Fisher

If you would have told us several years ago that we would be doing all these hikes, we would have said you were crazy.

Marcia Powers

We had not just one event but several that eventually caused 3 million claims. It caused an exceptional strain on claims-handling resources.

Bob Hartwig

Complementary and alternative medicine practitioners worldwide currently use ascorbate IV in doses as high as 70 g over several hours, ... Because IV ascorbate is easily available to people who seek it, a phase I safety trial in patients with advanced cancer is justified and underway.

Mark Levine

Well, it's been a total team effort. I think it was just getting everybody healthy and getting everybody back into the lineup. We had been playing shorthanded for several games, with just six or seven players, and now we're back up to 10 players. I think that's really what did it for us.

Jason Niblett

We have never crossed the Line of Control. It is India that has tried several times to capture our posts.

Sartaj Aziz

I really think that for us to begin the quantum leap into the next level, we're going to have to do that either with a single or several transforming transactions.

Mick Davis

Sheldon is a special player who can win a basketball game in several different ways. With his defense, his passing and his scoring. Not too many players come along who can do that.

Jeff Guiot

Where a lot of this is coming from is the discussion several years ago surrounding partial-birth abortion. There was so much publicity surrounding that particular procedure and the idea of what the unborn child went through and the pain it felt.

Denise Burke

A full assessment of the damage from Hurricane Katrina will require several more days, ... Many facilities have still not been inspected by their operators.

Rebecca Watson

We need a more comprehensive and perhaps more effective strategy in controlling acute respiratory infections, relying on several preventive interventions that take into account the multi-agent nature of infectious respiratory disease and its context (such as personal hygiene, provision of electricity and adequate food, water and sanitation).

Dr. Tom Jefferson

I definitely stress comfort. Try on several. One will shine as more comfortable. Also, try on several from different companies because they all have different ideas of what feels good.

John Stephens

She's been in and out of the hospital several times.

Julie Scherf

Some witnesses said the driver was going about 90 mph when he lost control of his vehicle, hit the median and flipped the vehicle several times before crashing into a car in the northbound lanes.

Louis Bolden

The Bible was written in several languages, embraces many literary forms, and reflects cultures very different from our own. These are important considerations for properly understanding the Bible in its context.

Troy Perry

Several of those doctors refused (to sign the petition). Others signed because they were told they could lose their privileges at Betsy Johnson.

Larry Parker

With spring rains in the offing and a heightened potential for runoff, we are moving ahead on several key task force recommendations, rather than risk losing opportunities to help protect lives and property while we await a final report.

Lisa Jackson

The fumes spread from the construction area into the records office. Several employees reported smelling noxious fumes. Several became lightheaded. A few became nauseated.

Don Aaron

Several people told us they wanted the (alligator) caught because they were afraid to let their dogs out.

David Selby

We haven't made a decision yet. I think there's several options open to us and that's something work out with all the parties.

Alan Curry

Regarding Sunday's games, we will make no decision today. We'll gather information and speak to several parties within the next 24 to 48 hours.

Joe Browne

Are going to be Japan and the United Kingdom, America's No. 1 and No. 2 largest overseas markets, respectively. An in-country presence will also be established in Brazil, which is our largest South American market. And in subsequent years the program will expand to Germany and perhaps to several other countries as well.

Chris Bowers

Several of them had.

Anthony Ricco

We came out in the first half, and we weren't ready to play. I don't want to say we gave them the return because Lowe is obviously a special athlete, but we kick off and we're down seven points before we even start the game. We had several things in the first half that cost us. We just weren't mentally ready in the first half.

Gary Doherty

[But as of now,] there is no official project on the books, ... Any time you get into widening a structure, it's safe to say the cost is several- hundred-thousand dollars if not into the millions.

Colin Jones

In the past, those non-listed companies' stock offering were under several regulators' scrutiny and the overlapping always resulted in confusion.

Li Wei

I agree with that, ... several hours a day for at least a week.

Larry Larsen

We were playing without several key players and had juniors on the bench, thus, it was difficult to do better under the circumstances. Each side had its half and it is going to be difficult to get a result in Milan.

Danny Blind

It's because the third-base coach, which was me, ran us out of several scoring opportunities. I might have been thinking of other things.

Pat Pace

Now there are several sites on the Internet where you can see commercials from all over the world.

Robert Dalrymple

The Detroit Pistons had to go through it. The Lakers got beat by Boston several times. The Bulls had to get beat before they learned how to win. It was real good that our guys went as sophomores (in 2004). It really helped and you could see it.

Rick Lebato

Each time I come home form a tour I get several of my flutes out and play them.

James Galway

Ask the Experts' sessions are scheduled several times a day and are complimentary with admission to the show.

Marie Huenefeld

It was not a called meeting, but there were several committee chairs there, probably six or eight people.

David Graves

We probably see several cases a month where someone has a diabetic or heart condition that was under control at home, but then is exacerbated with the stress of an overseas trip. It's become terribly common.

Tim Daniel

In Tennessee, duck numbers are good, but dry conditions are proving to be a major problem. No significant rainfall has occurred in several weeks, and ducks are beginning to deplete food sources on refuges.

Tim White

We have several areas that we accept films from that are not specifically delineated as countries but have been accepted over the years, such as Hong Kong, Taiwan, Puerto Rico.

John Pavlik

All the defense has to do is put on a sincere expert, or several sincere experts, that the jury likes. The government always has the burden of proof, and confusion and lack of clarity will only aid the defense.

Ross Albert

I know he's been into golf for a while, he's like a 3-handicap. I saw him at a hotel before the Super Bowl several years ago and he was reading a golf magazine.

Carson Daly

The district is in a situation now were after having closed several schools where we can't offer any more money than we have already. However, we do feel that employees have a right to express their opinion in front of the board.

Lorna Ho

We missed several key players at the tournament but should have done better. We were a bit unlucky in the end as we went out on goal difference and Senegal got through even though we had beaten them.

Ratomir Dujkovic

I pretty much come here every other day to stock the machine, but during the walleye run I would be here several times a day.

Dan Demond

We have several empty stores, and I think there are several others that aren't doing well.

Patricia Ryan

This reorganization adopts industry best practices and capitalizes on the strengths of our senior managers, positioning us to achieve our ambitious plans for the next several years.

Terry Robinson

We're going to be there for several days.

Ruth Winstrom

It was no secret when I had several chances to leave as a free agent, I never chose to go anywhere, ... I never envisioned there was any place better to play than in New York. I can't go back and play, but to go back in a capacity as a pitching coach and become part of the organization again, it's a great honor and a great challenge. I think it's going to be fun.

Ron Guidry

We investigated this one in Oregon for several months. We have investigated several others, and have some ongoing investigations right now. So we have been active in terms of looking at those.

Herb Kuhn

Legislation will not displace the need for anti-spam software, ... There is a strong need for it and that need will be around for several years.

Paul Ritter

We didn't capitalize on rebounds. Their goalie had several saves that were just by instinct because there was no way he could have known where the puck was.

Darin Hickey

I'm nervous as a cat, ... I have plenty of crude oil in the short term, but if we go down without power, we have zero production. There's a chance we could lose power for several days.

Robert Mills

I really love pouring myself into a character for several months and leaving her, ... Pouring myself into someone for a long time is very intimidating to me.

Carla Gugino

If I lose my job, it's worth it. It's worth losing several jobs to get my papers.

Jose Cruz

When I'm out recruiting and out in the field, I have so many players to watch that I don't have time for a nice lunch or sit-down dinner. I usually bring a bunch of Power Bars with me, something quick and easy, so I can get to several different games and watch several different players.

Hillary Arthur

The exhaust-gas monitoring devices will be placed at several key sections in urban areas, mainly along the second and third ring roads.

Wang Dawei

The manholes located along these pipes are subject to water collection from several potential sources.

Doug Silver

We take 'em from anywhere. But there are several institutions similar to us that play basketball.

Kevin Jenkins

What gets people into trouble are small claims several times a year. It indicates there's a pattern there.

Jeanne Salvatore

We work hard against the press and we've got several guys who can handle the basketball. It's hard to press us. It can be done, but we work at it and the kids do a nice job.

Ben Leiker

Over the past 21 years several businesses have been established or expanded through the use of sub-prime loans and job creation has continued. The loan fund value has essentially doubled during that period of time with a good track record of loan repayment and job creation.

Dewey Scott

I misjudged distances with approach shots and was unable to hit the fairway with my drives several times, making it hard for us to produce a good score.

Ai Miyazato

There are several teams that could step up and win it all. Northwestern was picked to win it, and they (the Demons) have been pretty impressive, but some other teams have been impressive, too.

Billy Tubbs

It will notice if a SQL-injection attack occurs - it's not a quick attack; it takes several steps - and it stops it.

Harvey Ewing

Jeans & Classics have a great reputation as one of the more highly rated national touring symphony pops program groups. The Jeans 'n' Classics band -- there are several of them -- do covers of great bands of the past. There's a Led Zeppelin band. They have a Beatles Band. And people really swear by them. They are very well rehearsed and they are very polished.

Ted Hale

I'm now seeing many detonations, ... There's one huge fireball nearby and I can see several plumes of smoke from still other detonations.

Brent Sadler

The surface was fine and that allowed us to play several players who did not have a game this week because our SPL Reserve League fixture against Falkirk was postponed.

Tony Mowbray

The property is currently being used in a variety of ways, including commercial dog kennels, and abandoned horse barn and stable facility, as well as several residences.

Cary Clarke

Several of you will be asked to help.

Carolyn Turner

We've been working a long time and have gone back to the drawing board several times, so we feel that it's very comprehensive.

Joan Winter

The economy continues to grow. We've seen a steady increase in the index for several months.

Janet Harrah

There are quantities of human faces, but there are many more faces, for each person has several.

Rainer Maria Rilke

Women's life expectancy in China has significantly improved in the last several decades. In 1998, women's life expectancy was 73.1 years on average, 3.7 years longer than that of men. In 2003, women's life expectancy extended to 74 years.

Li Hao

Good grief, Chiles? Miller? Romer? These guys had tremendous experience and credibility, and it will be several years before Democrats develop guys who carry that kind of water.

David Beasley

A toy train layout is never finished. I have built several over the years, and the ones that I have gotten finished, I either sold or gave away.

Dale Smith

[Fernando Ferrer, the former Bronx borough president, appeared at several black churches yesterday morning and issued a statement calling the Bush administration's response] shocking, inadequate and indefensible. ... we have a president and a federal government that have abandoned our cities.

Gifford Miller

The guys stayed focused at the end of a long week. Several members of the team participated in the blood drive, and I wasn't sure how that might affect them.

Lee Matthews

The consumer's been out in force for several months, ... all of these factors have contributed to very robust sales at retail.

Richard Church

Louisiana had been on a roll, but they literally came to a crashing halt, ... New Orleans is not going to be a good location for filming, probably for several years.

Jack Kyser

There were open containers of liquor in the bar. There was a bartender behind the bar. Several people were sitting at the bar and several people were walking around the bar.

John Suchy

We did something that everyone has been talking about, which is create a new character that now lives in several different mediums.

Brian Farrell

We did hear Martha Stewart bought several pounds [of butter] when she was in Aroostook County. She went into a little store and bought out what he had.

Alice Lincoln

As far as I know, none of our players are involved. But don't ask me if we're going to ask every single player if he ever bet on a football game, because I'm sure several players have legally done that.

Jim Lites

This is a very sophisticated worm with several new twists.

Russ Cooper

That was a thought. (But) there are several (juniors) in this school that have not had the opportunity to play football. They are now going to get that opportunity.

Manny Zafiros

I am biased, but I thought we had several more who could have made it. I am glad for Brian. He had a great year.

Joey Downs

We made the plays. Every ground ball, we were fortunate enough to have it right at us. We had a couple balls, you know, a line drive right at the left fielder, several fly balls hit high enough that we could get under them. Some balls definitely went our way tonight.

Yates Hall

We were backpacking in the backcountry. We covered several hundred miles. Did a lot of off-trail stuff and some mountaineering. Music sounds different when you're high up in the mountains. You can really hear the music clearly.

Nat Keefe

Ordinarily comfortable inventories would mean lower prices -- probably closer to fifty-five dollars. But the Iran situation, and several smaller actual interruptions to crude supply, are keeping prices higher.

Tobin Gorey

The company considered several attractive sites in other countries and chose Ireland due to its thriving biotechnology community, infrastructure to support biologics manufacturing, emphasis on education, and attractive business climate, as well as the support we received from the Irish Government and IDA Ireland.

Fabrizio Bonanni

While the plan is reasonable and may potentially bear fruit, we believe it will take several quarters to materialize.

John Rizzuto

During 2001, we will be focusing our efforts on merchandise assortments, enhanced marketing, and expense reductions. Although it will be two to five years before we fully restore the profitability of our business to competitive levels, I am confident that incremental progress will continue to be made over the next several years.

Allen Questrom

They are young but they at least know how to play the game so you don't have to go over all those fundamentals as much. But I look forward to it that just means I have several more years to work with them.

Janice Gillespie

What started out several years ago as a hodgepodge of assets in a bit of disarray has been turned into a pretty well-oiled machine.

Curtis Jensen

We had trouble judging the wind in the first half and had several chances to score. We did better against the wind in the second half, but those long throw-ins hurt us. Now it's time to see how we bounce back from defeat.

Rick Woodard

We ran into several situations where under the present policy the principal had no discretion. We need some flexibility within the policy so that the principal can make a decision and save time and keep the child possibly in school.

Henry Hunt

If Bush is re-elected, I would suspect several justices would step down in the next four years.

Michael Gerhardt

In what was clearly one of the most difficult operating environments in several years, Lehman Brothers posted significant year-over-year increases in the fourth quarter.

Richard Fuld

If you find that you have several disengaged workers, that might be symptomatic of your culture.

Renée Arrington

There were several changes of the lead, just an intense game all-around. It shows a lot of character on the part of our players.

Jerry Malarkey

We drove to several banks and someone said they found her behind New River Shopping Center.

Cheryl Potter

Subway has been a No. 1 franchise for several years. We are going to hang in and hope it gets even better and try to double the business in about a year or more.

Mike Houston

After I returned to school, we received a large manila envelope filled with letters written back to several of our students. I hope it is the beginning of an ongoing pen-pal relationship.

Jan Jensen

Retailers cited several positive external factors contributing to the increased sales this year. The top three reasons were decreased gas prices, increased acceptance or comfort with online shopping, and the press coverage about online shopping. We are experiencing a general momentum right now.

Scott Silverman

Several months ago, he went through some real hard times, ... He was depressed, angry, he wouldn't get out of bed.

Wayne Newton

This is the first double-digit season we've had in wins in several years (13 in 2000-2001) and the first time we've had four district wins in a season in some time.

Mike Coppinger

Although it may have one last run going into the holiday period, we believe that Amazon has several red flags that demand investor attention.

Tom Courtney

I knew that there were several, among African-American leaders, who had been put out by me because of my failure or reluctance to endorse Sen. Kerry.

Rodney Alexander

We have video from several people within the community that are history buffs. We had one person who submitted something on the history of the capitol building. There's no limit. We invite individuals, groups businesses, corporations.

Karen Zabriskie

Several members of the theater audience complained that the guest's outbursts were disruptive.

Melanie Bell

The hype around mobile-device viruses has been around for several years, but 2006 brings together a couple of necessary prerequisites for the problem to become real.

Neil Macdonald

Unfortunately, the first report put this fire south of Carnation when actually it's several miles north of Carnation.

Chief Lee Soptich

As we've caught ourselves saying of Intel several times recently: it could have been worse.

Terry Ragsdale

She's a leader, and she doesn't have to say much to be one. She's been selected as our teammate of the year for several years, and that's something that's voted on by the players.

Jim Kerr

We like to have the measurements for several reasons. One is for scientific purposes, so we can get a better understanding of the size of the species. Measurements also help confirm the dimensions of the fish if the pictures are lacking in the application.

Jason Schratwieser

We just kind of put the word out there, and the people who came together were really wonderful. Several of us have different carpentry skills.

Richard Pearson

Don't assume that federal employees will do this job perfectly. Remember how frustrated we have been with the FBI over the last few years in several instances. We are dealing with humans, and humans make mistakes.

Vernon Ehlers

We had to meet after school on several occasions to put the act together.

Kevin Lewis
