I thought we had one of our best team performances that we've had in several years. The kids competed hard and they've improved on their performances. I'm very pleased overall.

Buzz Stevenson

It was my dream for several years to own a Friesian.

Gale Wolfe

I had given several courses on Jewish Supreme Court justices. We understand there had been some Jews who weren't that nice, and it's desirable to talk about the bad with the good.

Norman Olsen

If someone were of the belief that large-cap stocks were not going to do well in the coming year, they have several alternatives. For one, there are small-cap index funds.

Stephen Ward

The constant hope here is that, someday, we'll get several years of relatively consistent investment in the laboratory so we can really get on track with accelerating the introduction of these technologies in the marketplace.

Bob Noun

There is no question that he's in pole position, that he is being built up as the Number 1 successor. But at the same time there are several risks for him.

Christopher Granville

We are obviously thrilled. We have been searching for some time for a league that will provide us with what I would call geographic integrity. That geographic integrity does several things for us.

Rob Spear

These efforts toward product differentiation could face future legal challenges from the networks. Also, the potential advertising opportunity could take several years to scale, if at all.

Tuna Amobi

Van Buren is a senior-laden team with several key players back. They've got a new coach, and I'm sure they're playing with a lot of enthusiasm right now.

David Mcginnis

A five or six-pointed star tattoo on the hand, between the thumb and forefinger or on the arm, is common to several gangs, including the Gangster Disciples and Bloods.

David Conley

My grandmother works for the athletic department at Long Beach State and has been to several Final Fours in other sports. But she's never been to one in hockey. She's flying in from Boston [after attending the women's basketball Final Four].

Travis Ramsey

We've talked with several tenants who want to go in there quickly. There's one or two larger tenants that have a project that would eliminate the building altogether.

Pat Dowling

I was pleased with the effort. We had several pins. The kids looked good. We've got some quality kids here and they'll battle to the end.

Tim Mccartney

Patches improve compliance, particularly for people who have to take medication several times a day or for people who forget.

Sean Hennessy

Next season being a (non-international championship) season, I think we'll explore several options, ... My coach would definitely like to see me run more 400s.

Allyson Felix

These kids are no strangers to this. There is about several thousand dollars worth of damage (over time).

Mike Stewart

We've got several seniors that have been together since the ninth grade and they've worked hard for this season. We had to count on several of these guys as sophomores. They had to grow up fast (as sophomores) and they've continued to improve during the past two seasons. Our success will hinge on them.

Bart Britton

This is something that literally devastates children's lives and this happened over the course of several years. But for the fact that he was going to marry another person who had another young daughters, this might not have been reported.

Carl Brizzi

We have several plays with people setting picks for me to get me open. I've hit several clutch shots at the end of a quarter or the end of a half.

Trae Travis

They are wrestling with a lot of the same pollution problems that we wrestled with several years ago and that, to some extent, we still are grappling with.

Steve Page

I think were seeing buyers sitting back and looking to see what happens over the next several months, even the next year.

Bob Goodman

I want to stress that these are indicative numbers, if tomorrow one of the countries is affected or a new country is affected, these figures will change. If, and we all hope we won't have to, we face human to human transmission, all of these figures would be multiplied by several orders of magnitude.

Fadia Saadah

Childhood trauma, poor self-image, anger at men, poor relationships with either or both parents, and pro-homosexual media propaganda are several key elements in women developing an attraction to other women.

Anne Paulk

He won several firsts in the World Cup.

Cliff Persons

As NTP knows, RIM and NTP had been communicating with each other through the court-appointed mediator during the last several days.

Mark Guibert

We had an outstanding first quarter with major wins for all product lines in every geography and the successful completion of several strategic initiatives.

Jim Armstrong

I love it. We come here every day, several times a day.

Jennifer Wilson

For several years now, we've been pursuing a product diversification strategy. To increase company value, we've tried to diversify our product line.

Daniel Francisco

We lost several information transfer channels, which made our work harder.

Vladimir Solovyov

We are in here several hours a week and we go through questions.

Ryan Bell

He basically said when they enforced prohibition here, several thousand prostitutes left Memphis and went to St. Louis.

Drew Buchner

We tried that on several on occasions and it didn't work. There was totally resistance to it. If they are interested in some help, I think it has to initiate with them.

Bill Noland

I had several outlets in each of the leagues with guys I had played with before. I knew who I wanted and I just went out and got them.

Tom Mclaughlin

We did put a bid out for that specific plant. I do know we've had several conversations with them.

Weston Sedgwick

You're still in the beginning of the upturn in its long-cycle businesses, and that's why it's projecting very strong earnings momentum for the next several quarters.

Steve Roukis

Several of the homeowners have pooled their resources to sell a land block.

Beverly Martin

For several years before that, I had a picture of the jet on the mirror. I used to look at it while I shaved.

Bruton Smith

Any mother could perform the jobs of several air-traffic controllers with ease.

Lisa Alther

While operating efficiency is important, it will take significant revenue growth over the next several years to bring optimal leverage to Amazon's scale-driven model, and revenue growth will be increasingly difficult to achieve.

Sara Farley

We had several opportunities to take over and find a way to get back in the game and it just didn't happen.

Jeff Neubauer

Cree has focused significant sales efforts during the past several years toward the large and dramatically growing LED community in Asia. Cree Asia- Pacific is now investing in a new headquarters facility and expert personnel to deepen Cree's commitment to its Asian customers.

Mike Dunn

We've been assuming a first round victory for several months.

Patrick Esteruelas

Some individuals don't recognize that if you have medical expenses and you have to commute to perhaps an appointment or several appointments, or, in some cases, travel outside your general area where you reside, you can deduct medical mileage.

Gloria Sutton

His expertise in successful acquisitions and integrations will complement our organic growth plans. Several strategic investments will expand the OH Logistics network and allow us greater opportunities to provide value-added services to our clients.

Scott Mcwilliams

The Dun Glen claim block lies at the intersection of three separate structural trends whose extensions host several major gold deposits. We are excited to be on the ground in Nevada and look forward to evaluating the results of our initial exploration program in the coming weeks.

Matt Hughes

[For the recently completed Filmmaker 's Lab, several XDCAM optical disc camcorders] did all the heavy lifting ... Using an optical disc format allowed the participants to make the most efficient use of their production time.

Ian Calderon

Yes I am concerned about the message we may be giving out. This has come up several times before and we have denied it all three times. It is a little bit opposed to the direction we want to go with catfish.

Phil Durocher

The city has participated in the program for several years and has determined that it is a cost effective way to advertise.

Ruth Graham

A small portion of several things is probably better for you than a big portion of one thing because you get a wider variety of nutrients.

Jim Barnes

We have heard several such rumors. Even if they deported us, we'd come back.

Hector Lopez

It helps us to maintain one of the things we are proud of -- reserves, ... Regardless of how many hurricanes hit us, and we were hit with several last year, we have managed to maintain our reserves. I think one of the things a city has to do is to maintain itself, not only operate in the black daily, but (remain) in the black when you hit your reserves.

William Harvey

Even other adulterers considered him several levels below despicable. How could a man sink that low?

Patrick Clark

We have had approximately 25,000 customers affected by outages in various areas in the High Desert (from Phelan to Barstow). We have approximately 28 poles down, and several transmission poles that have come down also.

Nancy Jackson

Ron has been with Perry for several years and we are confidant that he will do a good job. Charlie has done a good job for us already and will make a good assistant chief.

Tim Hudspeth

In the past several months, the oil industry has been faced with a deteriorating operating environment, ... We don't anticipate margin improvements in the near term, therefore we are adjusting our plans accordingly.

Wayne Allen

The big impact is this is really the only hybrid system that makes sense economically. We can make a hybrid system that is more effective than electric hybrids for a few hundred dollars versus several thousand dollars.

Sal Scuderi

The next day, several people sent me images of that, and congratulations on that.

Dale Hubert

I had several big-time mistakes. I felt at the time that it happened, 'Why am I here?' You're heartsick about a call that you made. You want everything to be perfect. But it's not a perfect science. There's nothing perfect.

Jerry Markbreit

We've got our eye on that 21 car in the owners points. It will be hard to beat those guys because Kevin has had some strong runs and Childress has dominated the series over the last several years.

Tony Raines

We've been back and forth to the drawing board for several years to find an unleaded fuel that is compatible with NASCAR engines. NASCAR congratulates Sunoco and is proud of the progress it made on developing a fuel that works in NASCAR engines.

Gary Nelson

There are several guys in there who think we can change some things next year. Everybody feels what we went through this year, the good, the bad. Hopefully, we can correct that.

Derrick Byars

This is merely a stake in the ground. There will be no arbitration. We'll have this resolved before then. We're moving very vigorously on several fronts to finalize this matter.

Mark Tuohey

Over a period of several years, we have had conversations with a number of potential partners regarding the necessary consolidation in our industry.

John Devaney

I think we are several-fold above what we initially thought was required.

Rick Rule

Several drivers traveling in the same direction as Smith said he ran the red light. He wasn't even close.

Larry Colagiovanni

We have several major building projects that remain partially funded as well as [the need to] continue.

Charles Phlegar

Several Islamic banks are keen on opening branches in our country.

Alwi Shihab

We also found several unexploded bombs in a room next to the one where the exploded bomb was planted.

Anton Bahrul Alam

The tradition is strong here and it's been an excellent program the last several years because of the players. Those expectations are there. The expectations are high and these guys know that.

Todd Abbott

We will discuss a post-Kyoto deal during the conference, but we're obviously not going to agree on a second phase with clear objectives right away, ... That will take several years.

Stephane Dion

In my opinion, it is better to release several security updates. Apple fixed the serious part very quick and that's good.

Michael Lehn

There's no way I could give you a close guess. There are several parks and several people involved in putting them up — there's no way to guess how many there are.

Al Gaskin

He can do several things out there. It's a plus. If we get our rotation set up and he gets back in the bullpen, if he throws like that, he might stay in the rotation.

John Tamargo

After several strong months of retail sales growth, it seems clear that the economy is picking up momentum just in time for the holidays.

Rosalind Wells

When we got those numbers, I wasn't sure what they meant. But when we got them back yesterday from the doctor who interpreted them, she said the levels were high. The cocaine had just come into her system within several hours.

Carol Davis

We believe that Alcoa's earnings will begin to reflect the strong aluminum price beginning with its 1Q 2006 earnings - particularly since several of the headwinds that affected Alcoa over the last two years, whether it be input costs or foreign currency, have stabilized.

Michael Gambardella

We've seen some horrific decisions, and we don't see them once every millennium. If you're any kind of boxing fan, you see them much too often. If it's several times a year, it's too much, but it's way beyond that. Every month, you're going to see a bad decision if you watch enough boxing.

Teddy Atlas

I would say we're talking several to many years before the city can be rebuilt.

Leslie Brunell

She told me, 'It's just sex,' ... She flew to London to let me know how interested she was in the part. She knew so much more about Tessa than I did. I saw several other actresses, but she was the one who inspired me. It would be easy to play Tessa as a caricature, but there's a humanity in this character.

Fernando Meirelles

It is a well-documented fact that guys will not ask for directions. This is a biological thing. This is why it takes several million sperm cells . . . to locate a female egg, despite the fact that the egg is, relative to them, the size of Wisconsin.

Dave Barry

This creek is home to several threatened and endangered species of mussels. Our main issue is the residential and commercial development and mining. There are so many natural resources here in Lee County and if you're into nature, there's plenty to offer here in Auburn.

Marylou Smith

Several schemes were discussed through which we can secure sufficient financing to accelerate the development of infrastructure projects. This is not just talk, it will be realized.

Sigit Pramono

Margins were very high till 2003 but there have been several price reductions since then, and there will continue to be additional reductions as consumers have more choices and as more competitors come to the market.

Troy Clarke

This is one of the big tracks every little boy dreams about racing cars on. I've had opportunities to come here and try to qualify several years in a row now, and it really feels good to be able to finally pull it off.

Kirk Shelmerdine

We're getting into several of the sciences that had not been delved into before.

Karen Wheeler

While overall rates have decreased, several communities account for a disproportionate share of infant deaths.

Thomas Frieden

I think this is some of the most serious rioting that Belfast has seen for several years. We have had crowds of up to 600 involved at different times.

Alan Mcquillan

Not all of those are different people. Some are patients who come several times a month for tests or treatments.

Connie Schroeder

There is no cookie-cutter business model out there yet. There are several different models out there and they all have potential.

Jeff Orr

There's huge demand. We don't need the money but several foreign investors, including Fidelity, have said they'd be interested in buying new bonds.

Raymond Holliwell

I thought about going to Crawford several weeks ago, ... It occurred to me that maybe I should go down there and confront Cindy Sheehan ... I don't feel led to go.

Daniel Healy

We had several guys do well in the tournament, but we did not play our best baseball.

Keith Nall

Our strong financial performance is a result of successful execution of strategic objectives set in motion several years ago. Improved industry dynamics and iron ore prices have coincided with our increased ownership in the mines we manage.

John Brinzo

When they arrived he fired several shots at them, and he did strike one of those officers in the leg. They did return fire, but at this point it's unknown whether he was struck or not.

Carrie Rodgers

Over the past several months, it became increasingly clear that it would be best for our company to focus on our core global hotel business.

Barry Sternlicht

We know for a fact that several of the people staying at the motel were habitual burglars.

Darrell Nichols

If you're on a long flight, and you're incommunicado for several hours, that's not good. I think in the kind of position I'm in, it's important to have that access to the office.

Tom Mccann

We represent many players who will be representing several different countries. And they all appear to be feeling very excited and patriotic about the chance to take part in the World Baseball Classic. They all feel this type of international competition is long overdue in this sport.

Jeff Borris

There are several issues related to their employment, living conditions etc that need to be addressed and my prime concern is to expedite the matter.

Vayalar Ravi

Coming in on the ground floor several years ago was great. But having the opportunity to come back is just unbelievable for me. Coming back home, being with some good people, great city, great kids. I'm just so excited about being here.

George Pugh

I'm always asked when the lights will go on. My estimate is it will be several weeks before the very last customer at the end of some line will be hooked up.

Joe Domino

I think we can look to several more months, if not years, of this kind of performance. This is a terrific inflation report - exactly the kind of thing we all like to see.

David Resler

I think this is the beginning of the unraveling of several indictments.

Stanton Glantz

We've had church and civic groups, like the Lion's Club, that have found the festival helpful either as a fund raiser or for public service to the community. Several churches have given away free cold water at the festival as an outreach effort.

Duane Hart

Overall, this meet was good to reaffirm the kids that we could potentially have a good team this year if we continue to work. We've got several All-Americans on this team that I think have improved over last year.

Kip Janvrin

While they were grading for the Chip Home Development, old metal was unearthed and hauled off several large dump trucks. The dump was cleaned up or buried as each house was built.

Kathy Nelson

Our biggest positive for 2006 is that inflation remains contained and that valuations for the first time in several years could really go higher. That could be more of the driver for the market in 2006.

David Chalupnik

I think we'll probably see an up session in the market over the next several days.

Courtney Smith

Several major police incidents were not in any 100-day plan. Hurricane Katrina wasn't in any 100-day plan. The DWP power outage was not in any 100-day plan.

Robin Kramer

I would predict that there will be several markets in 2006 that will reach all-time highs: almost all of southern California, Washington, D.C., and midtown New York.

Kevin Hayes

That's hard to do -- to gain points and have a great day, that can happen. But to have five or six people have trouble and have a great day for several weeks in a row is a difficult task.

Matt Kenseth

(Tuesday) won't be the last. This is not the sort of cheap and easy (money) period of the past several years.

Stuart Hoffman

We shot ourselves in the foot several times in the first half. But the kids responded to the talk at halftime. We started to come off the ball.

David Franklin

The expansion of the mall will bring about 500 new jobs and the expansion of the mall will allow businesses to strive, Many of the new stores are geared toward college-age students, several of which can be afforded on a students budget.

Steve Winter

It was very nice to have several former members come back for a visit.

Mark Metz

They are effectively going to get several minutes worth of return, not including promo time, for the supply of the goods.

John Gregory

We'd like to go down and win one -- or several.

Garry Grewe

There was a resounding bang and several cars were shunted into the back of each other.

Paul Chapman

Gathering strength is evident in several areas of the industry with growth in the housing sector the strongest in almost two years as buyer activity has improved.

David Stubbs

We have several auction items that are favorites with our members. That is a beautiful place to go in the summer or winter.

Steve Rowe

NASA may just be regaining its soul -- rather than selling it. And partnering with the private sector will help it do that in several different ways.

Rahul Nayar

I think we should modify the laws to a point where it doesn't take several years to immigrate.

Jack Jackson

It's grown quite a bit in the last several months and certainly this year, we've even exceeded our own expectations and that's the challenge that we're facing now and working to address.

Greg Cook

He has come to my town several times. He's a good speaker.

Melissa Ortiz

The volatility that we've had in the stock market is higher than we've been accustomed to over the past several months. We've now finally broken into the range where the moves are greater than 1 percent, but as long as they're not 2 percent or 3 percent, we're not in that range where you would start to call them extraordinary.

Jim Bianco

Coach Hill said the game was closer than the final win margin because the Bears were down by only five, but made several turnovers in the final seconds of play. He could not remember the final score, but said the Rams won by twelve.

Raymond Robertson

Their record does not indicate what kind of team they are, ... There are several games that I have seen them play that they should have won. They give up a goal late and end up with a tie or loss.

Chris Henderson

I know that several of my friends and I have been anxiously awaiting to see 'Capote,' 'Good Night, and Good Luck,' 'North Country,' 'Mrs. Henderson Presents,' etc. etc.. Can you tell us why these films go to (and stay) at certain North Side theaters?

Diane Coleman

We've known for several years that [the Barron Road interchange] was needed.

Ken Fogle

We start feeding after considering several factors. Snow depth, temperature, elk body condition and elk numbers are monitored by our local conservation officer, Greg Wooten.

Regan Berkley

Background noise definitely made it harder to recover accurate text, but the differences became smaller after several rounds of feedback. Given enough tries, the computer algorithm will eventually come up with a pretty good estimate of the text that was typed.

Doug Tygar

The U.S. consumer confidence index has fallen for several months in a row and consumption prospects in the American market are gloomy, posing a relatively large threat to China's exports.

Wang Jian

The biggest improvement would have to be how they made good choices on where and when to attack on offense. We were also able to convert several turnovers into points.

Todd Wetterling

It has been established that he took direct part in the funding of several such organizations. Embassy payment documents signed by Doe on money transfers to NGO accounts at our disposal prove this.

Nikolai Patrushev

We share your concern about the criticism our program has received, and, in response, the players have demonstrated, several times now, their willingness to take all reasonable measures in response.

Donald Fehr

We made substantial progress on several fronts during the first quarter. We generated good sales growth, as double-digit gains for blades and razors and Braun more than offset softness in certain battery markets and a significant unfavorable exchange effect.

Michael Hawley

Our growth rate is still a multiple of any major competitor in our space, and we should continue to pull away from the industry over the next several years. Our operating expenses are declining as a percentage of sales, and we are generating cash at a rate of $4 billion annually, which adds to our investment income.

James Schneider

We have considered many strategic options over the last several years and this merger is by far the most attractive.

Roger King

There are several districts, particularly in southern Afghanistan, where the government doesn't even really exist.

Sam Zarifi

Several people mentioned we need more free things. We know many senior citizens who can afford to go to the Pavilion. We know many young people who cannot afford to go to the Pavilion.

Kay Williams

From 1945 to the end of the century, the United States attempted to overthrow more than 40 foreign governments, and to crush more than 30 populist-nationalist movements struggling against intolerable regimes. . . . In the process, the US caused the end of life for several million people, and condemned many millions more to a life of agony and despair.

William Blum

After several decades of conflict ... and negotiations for almost six years, all the problems between us are known.

Oded Eran

It was a nice ride. And there are several people who need to be thanked, starting with my wife. She puts up with a lot.

John Fazzary

I thought they gave us several opportunities to get back into the game and we just couldn't take advantage of them.

Randy Lambert

Over the years, we've gone broke several times. The first time, 80 people contributed $50 out of their pocket.

Don Bowes

Our pitchers did an excellent job. I am very pleased. We made several adjustments in trying to pitch to their outstanding hitters. We did a good job of that.

Todd Wilkinson

This is an idea that has been suggested. It's been mentioned as one of several ideas that have been tossed about. It's no more of an idea than other ideas.

Wendy Johnson

I thank Mr. Garcia for a good race and for bringing Hidalgo County this far. I've already began researching several issues that I consider critical to residents here, and I am ready to get to work.

Jd Salinas

It's another pro-ethanol paper. There's several things I have problems with.

David Pimentel

Our demographic is huge and it's not been catered to for several decades. We have something that I know will be hot. But we're doing it for us and for our contemporaries, first.

Phil Hurtt

[Several analysts also said the episode had greatly increased Lopez Obrador's chances of winning the presidency by expanding his support beyond Mexico City.] He's really built a national social movement, ... Fox has been a great campaign manager for him.

Lorenzo Meyer

I was a rust repairer. I was a rust repairer and full-time survivor. I survived all the major earthquakes, and the Titanic, and several air crash.

Keith Moon

Raise the funds for research that is hopefully going to lead to a cure or better treatment. In the last few years, we have gotten several new drugs that have made treatment of it so much better and now we want to find a cure.

Renee Luker

Terrell had a good night. He had several good runs. He needs to work on passing the ball better. Of course, we know he's not a passing quarterback. He's a running quarterback. But he's really playing out of position. He's naturally a wide receiver.

James Carter

I've had several evenings with James and he has transformed me. The experience is like a two-by-four across the forehead.

Ted Danson

We're looking at several different sources. We haven't secured a particular funding stream yet.

Tim Butler

I'm quite sure there will be several manufacturers who are interested in talking to the employees.

Kathy Baylis

The Humane Society has received several applications a day since the grant was announced.

Teri Schweiss

The early part of the season we will have several young players playing quite a bit.

Mark Comfort

We'll have several different exhibit halls. But the names aren't all in place yet. There are still some naming opportunities for donors.

Suzanne Wilcox

This is my first final this season and my best match, ... There were several bad calls in the match, but I managed to stay cool and kept on playing.

Thomas Johansson

After I hired several engineers and managers, they read through the equipment manuals. By the time the equipment arrived, they knew all about it. I can't say enough about the work ethic.

Jason Craft

That was a lot closer game than the final score would indicate, and with a new coach (Jim Goff) who was successful at Archbishop Williams and several returning players, they should be tough again.

Dennis Golden

Several processes have been initiated over the last couple of years that not only reduce the amount of paper used, but also help the firm operate more efficiently.

Dawn Anderson

We played our junior varsity in the second half. Everybody is spreading the ball out, but we're going to have to run the ball behind our big offensive line if we're going to compete. We have several good running backs that can do that.

Jeff Mathews

Until several days ago it looked like the euro was trying to mount a recovery, ... But it failed and it looks like it's heading lower again. We see the euro continuing to be under pressure mainly because the U.S. market, after the Fed does nothing next week, will focus on the prospect that the Fed will raise rates in the future.

Jon Jacobs

There were some drivers for increasing margins in 2005, including better negotiations with suppliers and higher pricing points in stores. The company made several deep changes in terms of the way we negotiate with suppliers, as well as how pricing in stores, present products...category management issues.

Fernando Tracanella

When life gives you lemons, you make lemonade. I have several stands around here.

James Brady

We had a deficit and could no longer afford to do what we have been doing. Last year, we laid several employees off. In 2006, we're no longer in deficit spending mode, but we've lost critical programs and services, so now we'll ask the voters to change that.

Cindy Matthews

The Glades County School District Maintenance Team, led by Al Brown has also played a vital role in the completion of the project. In an effort to keep costs down, the maintenance department took on several tasks in the project instead of bidding them out to a sub contractor.

Scott Bass

Things are still just as hard as they were several weeks ago. I'm not sure it'll get any better. It's just one day at a time right now.

Vicki Sharp

He was simply screaming out (obscenities) for several minutes in a monologue with a 2-year-old and a 5-year-old child present.

Rich Vollbach

It took several agencies to raise me.

Danny Lyons

I've had several things come my way. I would absolutely love to do things like that.

Mandisa Hundley

If it's already (significantly) damaged, though, you're looking at a major project of several thousand dollars.

Mark Rice

[D.J.] had several key sacks, [he] pressured [the quarterback] all night. Ricky got after them defensively too.

Joel Gray

That's not true. We've done that in several instances.

Tom Hatley

Moody's Investors Service recently upgraded the underlying rating from A3 to A2 on the District's outstanding debt - without the PSF guarantee. Factors contributing to the upgrade included healthy tax base growth, well-managed finances despite operating at the maximum allowed tax rate for maintenance and operations for several years, and manageable debt ratios.

Bruce Barnett

I talked to several of the guys that were under him and they respected him as a [noncommissioned officer], and he saved several of their lives on the first tour.

Douglas Gray

We don't need a clear-cut No. 2 (receiver). We have several guys that can play the game. I've always said that each one of them can do different things. It's just a matter of those guys being in those situations.

Darryl Drake

This was another step for us. We made more progress getting ready for the Big Sky meet. Erin had a very good pentathlon, and we had several other athletes step up.

Dale Kennedy

E.P.A. has been working with the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development countries for the last several years on development of a program that would provide much greater assurance that exports of recyclable materials will be environmentally sound.

Tom Dunne

I thought he threw better his first time out. He got behind several hitters but was able to overcome those problems.

Steve Stinson

This has resulted into greater attention to the juniors and exploration equities, with a renewed flow of speculative capital entering this sector over the past several weeks where some strong gains have been seen.

Peter Spina

I have never heard [in recent history] of several hundred [churches] leaving in one swoop. It serves as a threatening reminder to other mainline denominations of what can happen to them. Perhaps it will caution Methodists and Lutherans and Presbyterians.

Mark Tooley

It was the fifth inning that was full of some really poor choices on our part defensively. Mix that in with several walks, two errors, and two triples by the same girl, and you have the difference in the game.

Jana Epema

For the last several years, as you know, we've demonstrated outstanding growth in student achievement, and it didn't happen by accident.

Bob Leib

It's going to be market-driven. We've got several offers already, but we want to partner with the best developer, whether it's for rent or for sale.

Don Provost

Several of us (coaches) talked and we don't think Portage is going to go winless. They're going to beat somebody. You just hope it's not you.

Tom Wells

The demand for traveler's checks has been declining over the past several years. With more consumers having access to electronic money, the need for a secure traveler's check is diminishing.

George Howell

He used to get himself out a lot of times. Now, he's hit several home runs on 3-and-0 counts. He's been very selective, swung at very few bad pitches.

Calvin Baisley

Most of the decline came from the banks. Banks have run up the last several weeks and part of the reason (for the fall today) was profit-taking.

Irwin Michael

Martina had just turned 22 when injuries forced her to stop. Now, at the age of 25, with several operations behind her, she is looking forward to the challenge of playing events.

Phil De Picciotto
