The team wasn't sharp in last Saturday's regional. And I definitely wasn't sharp. I got caught in a headlock in the first period and never recovered. But I came back to get third. We had a hard week of practice. I knew the situation going into that last period. I knew about the stalling. So I kicked it into auto gear and kept telling myself to never quit.

Rick Sloan
We've seen this before in other situations. You stall and delay, hire a bare majority, put in new work conditions. You meet once a month, two hours at a time, refuse to budge on any major issues, and drag it out until they vote out the union altogether.
Don Crisato
It's hard to play without seeing the time. And it's hard for the officials to determine some of the stalling. But I don't think it was a factor that caused us to lose.

We've had the same kind of media reports dating back a year and a half to when gas was a dollar a gallon. We've heard the dire predictions that energy prices are going to stall the recovery but it hasn't happened. So far, I think people have been able to absorb the jump in gas prices to $2.25 or $2.50 a gallon. There's probably a limit, though, about $3 a gallon.

This is another stall tactic.
Adam Mohammadbhoy
It is time for the ruling party and the opposition to move forward to bring about [a] lasting solution to the political instability prevailing in Ethiopia, which could stall the progress witnessed in the economy over the last few years.

We haven't had a big event since the (36,000 foot high) ash plume in March 2005, and we're feeling increasingly comfortable that we're looking at the sluggish end of this. ... I don't see how it can go on for another year without stalling.

Jack Meritt

Anthony Santomero
The economy is neither roaring nor stalling; it's clearly out of the soft patch and moving along at a decent pace, and that's all the Fed needs right now.

Even though it may have looked like we were in a stall (offense) we were not, the last three minutes of the first half.

It's not exactly that we were trying to hold the ball for three minutes.
Tony Hopper
One thing that is particularly challenging for us as landscapers is scale. There are huge homes now, and to try to bring those into scale with the landscape is real hard. How do you begin to reduce the impact of a four-stall garage?

Doug Cauthen
I am concerned that it appears that the governor may be stalling popular legislation until the session before his re-election. The benefits to the people of Utah are clear. It is not responsible governing to wait.
