Derrick Johnson

During the earliest stages of thought, accommodation remains on the surface of physical as well as social experience.

Jean Piaget

Our work is consistent with the concept that there is a relationship between increasing sea surface temperature and hurricane intensity, ... However, it's not a simple relationship. In fact, it's difficult to explain why the total number of hurricanes and their longevity has decreased during the last decade, when sea surface temperatures have risen the most.

Peter Webster

This is more complicated than it looks on the surface, ... We can't just say to an agency, 'Yes you're approved and then we're going to snatch a contract away from you,' without us reviewing how well they are operating.

Charles Johnson

This enhancement to the scoreboard, to the playing surface, and some of the other amenities we'll use with this money, will really continue again to make Frontier Field the place to be.

Dan Mason

With grass the infield gets beaten up a lot more. Turf gives a more consistent surface.

Charlie Thomas

Pat Thornton

An individual, who was doing work for the homeowner, was stripping paint with a heat gun. The heat source must've heated the surface of wood to a point where it caught on fire.

Jim Gable

If we find evidence that (those) minerals are there, there must have been a time in Mars' early history when there was standing water on Mars' surface.

Richard Zurek

An uneven playing surface will affect us more than them. They play more of a more direct, aerial game and we prefer a passing game so we are bound to suffer if the pitch isn't in good condition.

Xabi Alonso

Most people who take our exercise classes are college-age women. Pole dancing just seems like it promotes objectification of women and surface sexuality.

Tracy Adams

From birth, man carries the weight of gravity on his shoulders. He is bolted to earth. But man has only to sink beneath the surface and he is free.

Jacques Cousteau

All this had been accomplished without giving the appearance of bullying Korea that could raise questions in the United States about Japan's true intentions. In short, Japan could plausibly cite humanitarian concern for the welfare of overseas Koreans that would on the surface appear to be legitimate.

Wayne Patterson

Other moons in the solar system have liquid water oceans covered by kilometers of icy crust. What's different here is that pockets of liquid water may be more than tens of meters below the surface.

Andrew Ingersoll

Unfortunately, we haven't found many very old rocks on Earth because our planet's surface is constantly renewed by plate tectonics , coupled with erosion.

Anglican Bishop Robert Duncan

The surface lots are going away because there are potential condominium projects and offices everywhere. We all agreed that we need to keep meeting to stay on top of the changing environment down here.

Ron Campbell

The single best, quickest remedy would be for the Surface Transportation Board to have members who were interested in regulating.

Patrick Lavigne

Women undergoing bypass surgery have a death rate about twice as high as men. Our study shows that body surface area, or body size, is a very important independent predictor for mortality on top of all the other risk factors.

Ron Blankstein

I want to try and get into those kinds of places. It's very important to make devices for life detection on Mars, for example. ... Any planet or moon with a solid surface will do.

Penelope Boston

The extended journeys taken by the two rovers across the surface of Mars has allowed the science community to continue to uncover discoveries that will enable new investigations of the red planet far into the future.

Mary Cleave

The problem could be anything, ... This helps people learn how to ask the right questions to get beneath the surface conflict.

Sara Ross

It's something we're looking at in the very near future. We'll look at this surface here ... and then make a decision.

Rogers Beasley

Since the cells will adhere to the surface at locations where the complementary nucleotide sequences match, we can program cell adhesion events with a virtually unlimited number of possible coding options. The DNA effectively serves as a molecular barcode on the surface of living cells.

Ravi Chandra

We're going to see more and more pressure to drill in people's backyards, and more sophisticated campaigns to challenge the drilling. That will create political pressure for the companies to implement creative technologies and be more cooperative in local communities. Ultimately, we need the right environment at the state level to allow local authority to regulate the surface impacts.

Gwen Lachelt

With the subsurface of Mars, we've literally just scratched the surface and we're trying to probe, now, more than a couple of feet into it.

Richard Zurek

These are the first uncovered walls of the pyramid. We can see the surface is perfectly flat. This is the crucial material proof that we are talking pyramids.

Semir Osmanagic

I played quite good. But he is so good on clay. It's his best surface. If we play on another surface, a faster court, my chances are much better.

Tomas Berdych

I don't see any front-runner. Nobody has paid any dues. This is a wide-open race. McCain would be a very stable influence - solid, honest, no fear of taking on tough ideas. He could come away from the group, rise to the surface. But does he want to do it?

Tom Slade

It's good to be first on some things, but sometimes it's bad. We're interested in getting (the synthetic surface) perfect. We'll keep experimenting on how best we can do that.

Bob Elliston

If it's surface water, that would allow the possibility of photosynthetic organisms, ... Once you can tap into sunlight, it leaves open the possibility for a much greater abundance of life if it was ever there.

Bruce Jakosky

[The complications involved in caring for someone with Alzheimer's] are probably just going to begin to surface over the next few weeks, ... We have situations where all of a sudden families are becoming first-time, 24-hour caregivers.

Kathleen O'brien

The generally accepted explanation for the Miracle was that it had been just that: an act of divine intervention on a colossal scale ... An event had taken place in defiance of everything commonly accepted as natural law; it had fundamentally transformed a generous portion of the EarthÕs surface in a single night. It's only precedents were Biblical.

Charles Wilson

We wanted to keep the speed and stability of a longer ski but make it a lot more maneuverable. It's just all about the surface area. All of our skis are shorter than most, but they have the same surface area -- and that's what determines the speed and stability, the actual amount of ski on the snow.

Ben Anderson

Sending Minerva to the surface did not work.

Junichiro Kawaguchi

Instead of trapping heat in, and thereby warming the surface, this kind of has the opposite effect.

Mark Gurwell

It is really a serious concern when the captain shows his disappointment. I have talked with coach Dav (Whatmore) about the matter and I can assure you that everything would be okay. I do not want to make any comments on the surface because I was not there.

Faruque Ahmed

[At the time,] there was nothing much in the literature, ... So I asked the dean if I could have a small piece of land to put bodies on. That was the beginning of what has been 29 years of trying to figure out what happens to people. I think all we've done is scratch the surface.

William Bass

Sometimes we get tunnel vision on what our job is, and if your job is to go get that energy out of the ground and make money, sometimes you forget about the guy that lives on the surface.

Sen. Kit Jennings

The light wave is then reflected off the back of the raindrop's surface and bends as it goes outward at different angles.

Doug Kelly

I don't think he liked the surface. He was struggling with it and was really tired after the race. We'll evaluate his condition, and see if we want to go in the Santa Anita Handicap or the Dubai World Cup.

Vladimir Cerin

For years, I've been wondering what could happen to nuclear submarines when they dive and disappear from the surface of the earth for months, without a trace. No one really knows where they are.

Guy Hamilton

Tomorrow tire conservation is going to be tricky with the surface changes and all concrete on the track. I think we have done a good job and Jorg put in a great lap. We are always nipping on their heels in qualifying and that is the way we like it. But the real result up for grabs is tomorrow.

Patrick Long

The families saw a 35-minute video that consisted of surface video of the Scorpio going down, as well as undersea footage.

Jon Yoshishige

CSA-54 killed a wide range of HIV isolates, and completely blocked genetically engineered HIV that enters the cells independent of the cell surface receptor the virus normally uses.

Derya Unutmaz

In every study we've done, fuel cells surface as the most promising long-term pathway for the industry -- even if you use fossil fuels, like natural gas, as the source of hydrogen.

Larry Burns

The new head comes in with a picture of a healthy, happy school and may therefore be unprepared for the problems that surface when they arrive.

John Dunford

Until now we had no close-up view of the precise surface where the two proteins interact.

Be critical. Women have the right to say:This is surface, this falsifies reality, this degrades.

Tillie Olsen

We are trying to create an atmosphere for all views to surface and all positions to be heard.

Jeff Caldwell

They have a good series, so we'll stick with that route. She seems to have worked over the track very, very well. She seems to like the surface.

Bret Calhoun

By mounding the beds, you get more soil surface and you can layer the plants.

Rose Baglia

It's definitely a terrible thing that happened, and it's finally coming to the surface.

Alan Clapsaddle

We want the best surface available. And three companies have proven themselves in this area.

Steve Simmerman

While on the surface all may appear to be well in these schools, if we dig deeper we find that achievement could be better in some subjects, or for some groups of pupils, and that these schools are falling way behind in terms of providing the sort of education we find in our best schools.

David Ball

As long as the vehicles remain healthy and they continue the science return, we'll do what we need to do to keep them operating and learning. An asset on the surface like this is invaluable, and we certainly wouldn't want to prematurely cut them off.

Doug Mccuistion

We're in a position right now where we are stuck in between Toys 'R' Us and its expertise and all its assets, and being No. 1 in many countries around the world, ... And on the other side we have Amazon, No. 1 on the Web, and we have access to their customers. And we are just scratching the surface on the stuff that we can do. There's no one in a position like we are at the moment.

John Barbour

Why did the issue only surface with an Arab country? Here is a perfect example of clear discrimination against Arabs and Muslims.

Osama Siblani

If that much near-surface permafrost thaws, it could release considerable amounts of greenhouse gases into the atmosphere, and that could amplify global warming. We could be underestimating the rate of global temperature increase.

David Lawrence

It will give us an advantage as far as injuries. We'll see fewer, I think, because the artificial surface is softer and has more give than grass. We won't have to worry about someone stepping in a hole and turning a knee or ankle. And we won't have to worry about Mother Nature as much - when it rains, there won't be the slipping and sliding that you tend to see with grass.

Brian Woodley

We're trying to push character into the surface.

Tom Meyer

I would now like to face them on a dry day at Vicarage Road on a good surface where we will be able to move the ball about.

Mark Mccall

I am quite confident that their conscience will surface and their rational thinking will surface for the sake of the country.

Alwi Shihab

A major wild card that has yet to really surface is legislation that allows U.S. corporations to repatriate foreign earnings at a 5.25 percent tax rate instead of 35 percent. To be eligible the money has to be repatriated in 2005 and reinvested by Dec. 31, 2007. While the money cannot be used for many corporate activities, it can be used for mergers and acquisition.

John Mccamant

We have a better map of the surface of Venus than we do of our own ocean floor.

Costas Synolakis

The fabric that we selected has a smooth surface, with a silver thread on the backing. That thread is knit in a specific geometric pattern, so when the suit is worn, you have very even distribution of the pattern.

Phil Shettig

What you see on the surface is sort of a beach look. But you never see any standing water.

Bruce Holiday

I feel with TV you're allowed more freedom. With television there's more time to create something through the episodes. The fact that you're working harder on the surface seems more difficult, but you get into a way of working where if you're not allowed to stop and breathe and think about it, you just go on instinctively, which is the way I prefer anyway. It becomes a more spontaneous thing.

Robert Carlyle

I have always been a fan of AMD's technology and design philosophies, going back to my early days at IBM, ... Because AMD64 technology was designed and optimized from the start for multi-core processing using its Direct Connect Architecture, we really have only scratched the surface of its true computing potential.

Phil Hester

When the meteor hits the surface, it instantaneously melts and vaporizes rock, and that rock vapor is sucked right back up the hole into the atmosphere.

Donald Lowe

We got started off on the right step. The boys played well and handled it well. The playing surface was in good condition. Everything was looking pretty good.

Paul Stranz

We started pulling on the line, and this huge gator pops up on the surface. Martin was armed with a .22 magnum pistol. He shot it a few times in the head, but the gator kept submerging and resurfacing. Then the main line snapped and the gator was free-lined. It took about 21/2 hours for us to subdue it.

Jay Francis

It all pretty much says Mars was a place, particularly early in time, where liquid water was abundant at or close to the surface.

Ray Arvidson

By putting in the bridges, you are encouraging an increase in the impervious surface.

Russ Anderson

We get more e-mails and mail on a daily basis about Nip/Tuck than any of our other series. It's clear that Ryan Murphy's unique vision for a show that is both addictive entertainment and a deeply penetrating critique of America's obsession with surface beauty has tapped into something very powerful.

John Landgraf

BP will support any legislation that includes notification and compensation of surface owners, provided that there will be some means to ensure that we get a permit.

Dan Larson

I sense management has been put on a time line. People are looking for an event to surface value.

Greg Eckel

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

I came here two days ago and I haven't adapted to the surface yet.

Albert Costa

The air near the surface was drier than anticipated.

Howard Waldron

We've just scratched the surface in being able to communicate with him so that he can play our defense. Right now, we're relying mostly on the written word I'd personally like to take basic sign language lessons and continue to develop better ways to communicate with him.

David Elson

The city is, well it's not dry, but all the surface water is gone. And recovery can begin in earnest. There's no impediments to traveling.

Duane Gapinski

There are a few signs of cracks beneath the surface in the U.S. economy, starting with the weak durable goods and confidence figures last week, and now with the rise in oil.

Harvinder Kalirai

This is the reason we used asphalt instead of concrete for the road surface. It's easier and less costly to repair asphalt rather than concrete roads.

Joe Agnello

As a farmer, I see the need to keep developing markets for our commodities. Renewable fuels has been something our industry has been working on for years and I think we have only begun to scratch the surface as far as demand and usage.

Dan Meyer

That's in the groundwater, that's well below the surface and not unusual for a landfill.

David Carroll

Depth must be hidden. Where? On the surface.

Hugo Von Hofmannsthal

As long as you're not putting salt on a dry surface, it usually sticks. We anticipate the salt will be working fine.

Rob Morosi

The common expectation was that water would be all over the surface. But what we found was that it was in small, discrete areas.

Jessica Sunshine

But if you brought the lenses away from the top of the surface, you lost the image. They were not a practical way to find tiny early changes.

Dr. Joel Levine

Staff looked at the project as a wash. The project just changes the surface of an existing path.

Patrick Miller

We haven't really paid attention to what goes on below the surface in Puget Sound or any water body.

Philip Mote

RIM barely scratches the surface. We don't need any of their customers.

Brian Bogosian

We're inferring that there is a liquid water reservoir under the surface and it's erupting in a geyser-like fashion, maybe like the Yellowstone geysers you would see.

Linda Spilker

We can pattern a surface with single-stranded DNA containing a specific nucleotide sequence, then coat cells with single-stranded DNA that contains a complementary sequence.

Ravi Chandra

We don't know exactly how they were built, presumably people who worked on site were asked to just build them. Sometimes, like in the studios, we just accepted the patina of paint that had accrued over time and just left it as a kind of found surface, which distinguishes and differentiates the rooms.

Thomas Payne

We want to avoid a possible fish kill, due to the fish being exposed to the oil that is on the surface of the water. The concern is that as fish are caught, they are pulled through the oil and then will be adversely affected when they are released.

William Hyatt

This has a binding agent in it so it will help adhere to cabinet surface. A lot of people want to skip this process and go to the painting. The key here is you won't this coat of primer to be very, very thin. You want to be able to see through it.

Teresa Follmer

There is a large crack on the icy surface and rescuers couldn't go near at night.

Bao Shengrong

It's good news for the public because (Park East) is a good, solid surface to park on instead of something unstable.

Debbie Norton

Being a councilman is like being a duck, ... You act calm and unfeathered on the surface but paddle like the devil underneath.

Kevin Porter

Pockets of liquid water may be no more than tens of meters below the surface.

Andrew Ingersoll

We're just scratching the surface.

Claude Arnold

Microsoft has cleaned up its development process overall by emphasizing security threat analysis and reducing the attack surface in their code. They have made progress, so I am not surprised that there is less likely to be vulnerabilities in IE than in any other browser.

Ray Valdes

The ocean is interacting with the surface. There is a possible biosphere that extends from way below the surface to just above the crust.

Richard Greenberg

The glacier was God's great plough . . . set at work ages ago to grind, furrow, and knead over, as it were, the surface of the earth?

Louis Agassiz

We worked hard on this record, not that we don't on all of them. This one has fire in it. It takes us from those all-too-familiar beer joints that we cut our teeth in to the front row of church. I feel like we're barely scratching the surface with the first single 'Play Something Country,' because there's so much more on this record.

Ronnie Dunn

There's no question that the bulk of the water in those lakes gets there through groundwater recharge. But we believe we have some decent information showing that we're getting higher lake levels by diverting these surface flows.

Marc Spratt

It really screws up the water, ... You have a storm like Ophelia, that just sat out there and spun around for days, and it churned the water up from the surface to the bottom, and all of our water became murky. And murky water isn't conducive to holding baitfish and game fish. It can take as long as three weeks to settle back down and clear up. It's still murky out there.

Rick Bennett

The new turf course will be ready in late June. Work continues to progress on the new surface and a late June starting point will ensure plenty of time for that course to take firm root.

Dennis Dowd

At this point, there's nothing that can be done to these courts - nothing. Some places have tried to put six inches of blacktop down over the whole surface. You can do that, but every single crack will eventually come back.

Gary Wagher

Communities in these areas may want to ensure additional precautions are taken to control erosion when old orchard lands are disturbed in order to reduce the potential for contamination of nearby surface water.

Carl Renshaw

We don't train on that sort of (sand-based) surface, and it took a toll.

Phil Prescott

We are just scratching the surface right now.

Hal Joseph

We have a feeling we just scratched the surface with this guy.

Brad Cooper

These results show that there is ice on the surface, but not very much and definitely not enough to account for the water we see in the out-gassed material that is in the coma [the cloud of gas and dust that surrounds the comet].

Jessica Sunshine

I can understand why the market is reacting the way it is, ... On the surface, the deal looks strategic.

Desean Jackson

On the surface, it was a good idea. But when we looked at it in more detail, it was more problematic.

Jennifer Lane

Rugs make a hard surface look better and soften it up. A good rug completes the sections of a room.

Ron Testa

Four to five years ago when the equity bubble burst we were hopeful that gold demand would surface. But people went to other asset classes like real estate or hedge funds.

Charles De Vaulx

You have to have the right surface, the right field events venues and the right track width in order to win those bids.

Chris Bucknam

The twelve miners have been located and are being moved to the surface and their condition is being assessed while they are being moved.

Tom Hunter

It's a softer surface, and it dents easier than laminate.

Randy Hall

If we have snow, we will have to remove the snow in order to make a solid ice sheet. As we approach game time, the biggest challenge is a heavy rainfall. If that were to happen, we would squeegee the ice and remove as much of the water off the surface as quickly as possible. If it were raining the day prior and the day of (the game), we would be doing this continuously.

Mike Clayton

All we do is dip the [glass surface] into solution A, rinse it a little bit, and dip it into solution B.

Michael Rubner

It has to contain certain features, and it can be written on anything. As long as it has the elements, the surface doesn't make a difference. A check is an order to pay someone, that's all it is.

Brian Black

My perception is that we are headed toward a future where the surface water from the Rio Grande diversion is likely to be the dominant source of water for most communities around the Santa Fe area.

Ted Harrison

All this stuff will surface again in October, but it will surface on both sides. Just because the Democrats haven't gone to trial doesn't mean it's not in court documents.

Rick Wiley

Charlie, what can you say, big heart, big, tall lad. He bounced it into the deck on a very flat surface and it got us home.

Vaughn Johnson

The gullies may be of prime importance for human exploration. They may represent locations of relatively new surface liquid water, which can be accessed by crews drilling on the Red Planet.

Jennifer Heldmann

A minimal surface is formed when the pressure on both sides of a surface is the same. 'For example, when you dip a bent coat hanger into soapy water, the soap bubble that forms on the hanger is a minimal surface.

Matthias Weber

For enterprises, I think we've just barely scratched the surface about which systems can...be brought into the cloud in some way, shape or form.

Ray Ozzie

While on the surface this may be a positive earnings report, if you dig beneath the surface, you find it is a mixed bag.

Sanjiv Hingorani

Smith could 'read' the rocks on the surface. He realized that it was not random, that earth's processes have a cycle and an order to them and that, for example, specific fossils are only in certain rocks.

Tracy Gregg

It can't compare to Harmon. The lighting is so much better, the footing is better and the surface is better. We are looking forward to getting out there for those reasons and having a home-field advantage for the first time.

Brian Carter

The bass drive the bait fish to the surface and feed on them, but they can't go back down to the bottom to hide because there's not enough oxygen there.

Roger Norbeck

Our products hit the freezer directly from the oven. The freezer nips them at once. After one meter they've already stopped giving off moisture, and moisture is critical for product quality. In the freezer they're surface-frozen in seconds, instead of 10 minutes.

Christer ögren

If therefore my work is negative, irreligious, atheistic, let it be remembered that atheism at least in the sense of this work is the secret of religion itself; that religion itself, not indeed on the surface, but fundamentally, not in intention or a.

Ludwig Feuerbach

It was a very physical hard-fought game on a hard surface. You are going to have some of that sometimes.

Jerry Kill

If you've got rapid loan growth, it could take a while for problems to surface. It's hard to know how that would pan out the future.

Matthew Clark

[When he talks to Christian Zionists about the destruction of the Dome of the Rock, some say,] 'Well, this is all prophesied — it's bound to happen,' ... in an Arab-Israeli war a surface-to-surface missile aimed at Jerusalem will miss and hit the Dome of the Rock.

Timothy Weber

It was windy. There was a long causeway bridge where riders were getting blown side to side and 10 miles of poor road surface on large-pebbled asphalt. Kellen was still able to ride through (the flat) into second place.

Tom Gillis

As the new Surface Transportation Reauthorization Bill does not include an allocation of funds for the Kennedy Center Plaza Project, the Kennedy Center is placing the project on hold, ... The Center is aware that budget constraints have made it difficult for Congress to fund this particular project.

Michael M. Kaiser

We're trying to understand the structure of a comet and also its composition. Once we hit it, we will open up surface areas that are exposed to the sunlight and see new subsurface ices for the first time.

Don Yeomans

When we speak the word ''life',' it must be understood we are not referring to life as we know it from its surface of fact, but to that fragile, fluctuating center which forms never reach.

Antonin Artaud

On the surface, she appears to be a monster but in fact she is kind and sweet and misunderstood.

John August

The fast-growing sunspot now covers an area of the solar disk equivalent to the surface area of 13 planet Earths. That makes it the largest sunspot of the current solar cycle.

Paal Brekke

When I finally saw the surface of the water, the course turned out to be right on.

Mark Rebholz

This is a big deal. The south polar region seems to be a geyser field that's bigger than Southern California. . . . We suspect that liquid water also exists on other moons. But none of the water is so close to the surface.

Torrence Johnson

The field turf product in the Dome is only a month old, and what makes it different is that it's the closest thing to natural grass that you can get in an artificial surface. And it's the preferred surface of the NFL.

Pat Campbell

On the surface it seems like a great idea, ... But you can't throw money that you don't have at a problem.

Richard Dean

Whales only get harpooned when they come to the surface, and turtles can only move forward when they stick their neck out, but investors face risk no matter what they do.

Charles A. Jaffe

The fact that he's not a big server was something good for me, especially on this surface. The court is not that fast but against a good server things can turn out to be really difficult.

Nikolay Davydenko

You've got the same problem as a car on Earth on a sheet of ice. There is very little friction between the wheels and the surface.

Don Yeomans

The amount of time it takes for a person to recover from burns varies. The usual stay is one day per (1) percent of body surface injury.

William Hughes

A self-funded candidate may make a splash early on with slick TV ads. But people want to peel back the surface and see if this is a candidate we can trust to do what's right.

Dan Newman

To see new gullies and other changes in Mars surface features on a time span of a few years presents us with a more active, dynamic planet than many suspected.

Michael Meyer

This delivers electricity at the time when it's most needed for the system. The electricity, therefore, may be worth more than it appears on the surface.

James Sweeney

What looks on the surface like a genuine attempt to move the talks forward is in fact a very clever piece of maneuvering by the U.S.,

Celine Charveriat

It's for someone looking for a more modern contemporary flavor. These colors balance a gray or metallic surface or substrate.

Debbie Zimmer

It's the very nose of the jet stream. The air is speeding up very fast. It lifts the air mass in that location. Surface lows usually form in that area.

Stan Wasowski

Voluptuaries, consumed by their senses, always begin by flinging themselves with a great display of frenzy into an abyss. But they survive, they come to the surface again. And they develop a routine of the abyss: ''It's four o clock. At five I have my abyss... ''.

Sidonie Gabrielle Colette

He is an outsider, he is not from the company, he is not from here. That is it on the surface, and now this (sale) just adds to it.

John Church

For the first time, we have determined the minimum surface area required for fingerprint scanning in order to achieve a level of security that is roughly comparable to the security achieved with a six-letter password.

Venu Govindaraju

This is the final part of the highway?s preventative maintenance project. The surface was very worn and rough.

Gene Blaum

This is the area where liquid or a wet surface has most likelybeen present, now or in the recent past.

Steve Wall

Beneath the surface of civilian interests and capitalistic enterprise smoldered embers of the world's war spirit -- humanity's traditional flare now to be enflamed by new instruments for fighting . . .

Mary Ritter Beard

The most beat-up truck you've ever seen. I don't think there's a body surface that isn't dented.

Bernie Fei

I think the more rational explanation is that the excision of a five-to-six-foot leech from the surface of a human body means that that body is going to have more of its own blood in its own veins. Unless the leech finds another body, it is going to go hungry.

Dave Sim

The images provide measurements of surface features and are allowing us to assess the slopes more carefully and develop a map of where the good slopes will be to have our solar panels in a good position.

Joy Crisp

It's supposed to relieve surface tension on the car.

Treavor Bates

With development, you get impervious surfaces like pavement and roofs of houses, ... This really relates to water quality because it increases the speed in which surface water (containing sediment) runs off and gets into the waterways.

John Weber

This weekend, he finally put it together consistently. The surface helps, because he's really comfortable on grass. It takes him only 20 minutes to adjust to playing on grass.

John Roddick

In environments that are energy-rich but liquid-poor, like near the surface of Titan, natural selection may favor organisms that use their metabolic heat to melt their own watering holes.

David Grinspoon

We are in the process of creating what deserves to be called the idiot culture. Not an idiot sub-culture, which every society has bubbling beneath the surface and which can provide harmless fun; but the culture itself. For the first time, the weird and the stupid and the coarse are becoming our cultural norm, even our cultural ideal.

Carl Bernstein

The most significant finding is the nature of the surface of the comet. We now know that it isn't covered in a hard crust. It's a fine-grained, loosely glued layer of organic powder and ice. You couldn't make a snowball on Tempel 1.

Peter Schultz

It's one of the most emotionally eloquent performances of the year. It shows how Hollywood has just scratched the surface of her talent.

David Ansen

This tells us that these things that we see out in space can survive interstellar space and successfully be delivered to the surface of a planet.

Doug Hudgins

In science there are no 'depths'; there is surface everywhere.

Rudolf Carnap

It took a while to get the lenses just right because they scanned the surface of my eyes and developed the lens from there. They put the lenses in and told me to be back in a few hours so they could check the lens.

Cyndee Williams

On the surface I look fragile and insecure; you have to know me very well.

Anne Parillaud

It doesn't seem right, just on the surface, but I really don't know the details.

Tom Mayl

America has been sold a bill of goods. In a society that values youth and beauty and the surface over the inner soul, this is the logical outcome. If you're not pretty anymore, if you're not young anymore, you just need to die. You need to move on over.

Pat Anderson

Magma's always coming up in Sour Creek dome and going through the system. But maybe there are pulses when more comes up. That may be what causes the surface to rise.

Charles Wicks

Surface mining has really gotten a bad rap over the past 50 years. They'll see a nicely done reclamation project. It's really a diverse habitat. It's because of the reclamation work that we can have elk.

Trinity Shepherd

I wouldn't wish the eighties on anyone, it was the time when all that was rotten bubbled to the surface. If you were not at the receiving end of this mayhem you could be unaware of it.

Derek Jarman

On the surface level they've got rid of a lot of the street element, but there's still the same old people in charge.

Kate Taylor

It's a good surface for hikers, bikers and people riding horses.

Jim Hackett

Major disasters involving heavy loss of life have just shot up. It's in direct correlation to profits and production. They're ignoring safety in the interest of bringing the coal up to the surface.

Robin Munro

Some of these things appear, on the surface, to be very minor. In initial interviews, it's more or less the opportunity to talk and some negative comments sometimes that the players have received.

Karl Wolf

The surface is natural [in texture], as natural as can be.

Steve Trimper

What's nice about him is that he has more confidence in swallowing a pebble and letting the ripples play on the surface, than in making a big splash. He's working less externally. His greatest moments are when he's not even aware of what's registering on his face.

Gore Verbinski

In the winter, areas of high pressure moving in create a stagnant environment where the air doesn't mix well, keeping the pollutants concentrated over the surface.
