Somehow that gap has got to be closed, ... Until it's closed, we will continue to find units that are under stress like the 66th and will continue to have the problems surface and tragedies occur like the accident two years ago.

Richard Hawley

We're just starting to scratch the surface. The fate and power of e-mail marketing are strong.

David Daniels

A lot of scouts like him. Myron has been great for us. He's just starting to scratch the surface. He's very athletic, and he's a great kid. He's been able to score. Now, we want to teach him how to run a team and defend consistently.

Joe Harge

I'm not surprised by any of this. Those pots of money have been there for years, and when you have a budget that looks fat and happy on the surface, it's inevitable that we go back to that discussion.

Barry Erwin

A kitchen table makes an ideal location because she's sitting on a high surface and you can enter her readily.

Stephen Braveman

The camera literally just crawls over every surface. It moves in and out of being abstract and concrete. It becomes this intense investigation of this one artwork.

Matt Distel

The propjet had tons of sampling points. We digitally removed all outliers and greatly reduced surface noise.

Ron Marsden

One must be entirely sensitive to the structure of the material that one is handling. One must yield to it in tiny details of execution, perhaps the handling of the surface or grain, and one must master it as a whole.

Barbara Hepworth

But we don't know a lot about how evaporation from the ocean surface works when the winds get up to around 100 miles per hour, as they do in hurricanes.

Peter Webster

There are really only two options. We play here and everyone complains about the surface, or we play here and everyone says it's fine.

Kyle Patterson

If it were as negative as it appears on the surface, Microsoft's stock would be dropping like a rock, and it's doing just the opposite. The market is apparently saying, financially speaking, this is not a devastating event for Microsoft. Of course, as more news come out, that might change.

Gerard Cassidy

There's a lot of hype regarding how much the blogosphere has grown, and it has, and a lot of it is legitimate blogs with real content. But there's a scandal under the surface.

Mike Graves

He's got a big game and a big future. I never really felt I was in control of his service games. You're looking at the future of American tennis. He's a standout. He's got a big serve and grass is a surface he's going to get better on.

Pete Sampras

We have players just starting to scratch the surface of their ability. I can't wait to see the film.

Ron Rivera

You use surface tension to hold the food on the utensils.

Jim Reilly

We are going to anyone who's developing in these areas to look for alternative sources, such as surface water, to meet their needs in the future. This is not just a Villages problem. It's a regional problem.

Barbara Vergara

My job is to get the best out of each individual, and I don't feel like I've scratched the surface with Kip. He has a lot of potential, and I have not done a good job with him from the point of getting the best of his ability out of him.

Spin Williams

Right now we have an upper-level disturbance tracking across us from the southwest, and that's responsible for the current round of showers and thunderstorms. (Saturday) night we had a back-door cold front that pushed in at the surface from the northeast, and that's kind of laid across the area east to west. It's increasing the coverage of showers and thunderstorms.

Tom Bird

On the surface it looks very impressive, but we still feel there are a few hurdles that we need to overcome, but we've made a good step at challenging those levels.

Jeff Cheah

A deserted homestead is always a sad sight, but here in the South we must look a little deeper than the surface, and then we see that every such overgrown plantation, and empty house, is a harbinger of freedom to the slaves, and every lover of his country, even if he have no feeling for the slaves themselves, should rejoice.

Robert Gould Shaw

I understand now that 'special love' exists between two people when the passions lie beneath the surface.

Halle Berry

This surface has met every test in England.

Rogers Beasley

Certainly the issue of ground water-surface water connection is not a simple issue. Because of the complexity of the issues, before we have a response we need to fully internally review this decision.

Mary Sexton

Softbank's Internet-focused strategy in recent years has served its shareholders well, ... We believe we have just scratched the surface of the opportunities afforded by the Internet.

Masayoshi Son

It's a hazard. You have changes in elevation and surface texture. It's been a problem for a long time.

Mark Horowitz

This is an unbelievable surface. People who haven't seen it or weren't sure what it was are going to say, ?Wow!' It's just incredible.

Robert Cendro

I never expected to reach the semifinals on hard courts, but I knew I could play well on this surface and it was just a matter of time. This is certainly one of my biggest wins ever.

Filippo Volandri

Nick wants to put a basketball hoop in here, ... And the concrete floor is a great surface for bouncing a basketball.

Richard Lane

I think he is just scratching the surface. I think he has a lot of qualities. He's intelligent. He has a lot of qualities that fit what we're looking for at the quarterback position. The quarterback position in our offense is like a point guard in basketball. He has to deliver the mail. He has to make others look better.

Greg Robinson

Some people don't like to get down in the ditches. They just work on the surface. But she's just that kind of person.

Rosa Williams

This is a byproduct of having missed the boat in Florida. We have been watching like a hawk for this to surface in other states.

Peter Hamm

It is fitting that the TTI study on traffic congestion is being released the same day that the federal surface transportation program known as TEA 21 expires.

William Millar

We informed our people on the surface, tracked it for a while and then headed to port. After we left port, I was in the executive officer's quarters and noticed a newspaper picture of a submarine with an article stating it was the first time a Russians nuclear submarine had ever been photographed on the surface while in operating waters.

John Witt

The boards were designed using a computational process to balance shape and thickness with structural needs. Also, the boards are unique [because] no nails were used and [because they] are held in place by v-shaped grooves and rails below the surface.

John Hermanson

Both the right-hand turn, and then crossing the dirt, that change of surface. Some of them get to the dirt and they take a launch, and you lose six or seven lengths.

Jon Court

On the surface, I had a successful career and I was doing what I loved. But if one would look deeper, one would see a person who is totally uncomfortable about lots of things around him. The lack of freedoms ? with freedom of expression being the most important to me ? made me often feel suffocated.

Arnold Irchai

They're like the kidneys of surface water management. They provide filtration for contaminants like fertilizers, pesticides and metals.

Patrick Joyce

Goran Ivanisevic has been one of the most exciting personalities in tennis in the last 15 years. We are thrilled to add him to the field in Boston where the indoor surface will certainly make him one of the favorites for the title.

Jon Venison

Scary is a good word for it. There are a lot of chip companies trying to find their identity and hoping to bubble to the surface and be the leader in something.

David Carey

Four or five underlying injuries which may surface at some time, so we have to be careful.

Stephen Fleming

If the skies are clear and the telescope is working right, you can see features on the surface of Mars.

Peter Jedicke

A well-designed and properly fitting helmet will definitely decrease the likelihood of a head injury because it absorbs and spreads the force of the impact over a larger surface.

Dean Walker

It was a blow out and looked good; we're happy. I estimate he'll be running five or six yards further than the other horses. But if he takes to the surface, he might just do it.

Luca Cumani

On the surface, they certainly made every attempt to meet the guidelines (to form a union), ... It will take a week or two to go through their petition in detail.

Mark Weinberg

For example, some boulders seem to have just disintegrated on the surface. We've also seen that some of the fine surface material moves downhill, filling low areas and creating flat surfaces in craters, even with Eros' low gravity. These are big puzzles and we need to get a better look.

Joseph Veverka

If liquid water pops out onto Mars' surface, it can create short gullies about 550-yards (500-meters) long. We find that the short length of the gully features implies they did form under conditions similar to those on present-day Mars, with simultaneous freezing and rapid evaporation of nearly pure liquid water.

Jennifer Heldmann

Man is only man at the surface. Remove the skin, dissect, and immediately you come to machinery.

Paul Valery

This is the area where liquid or a wet surface has most likely been present, now or in the recent past. Titan probably has episodic periods of rainfall or massive seepages of liquid from the ground.

Steve Wall

For this method to work, we've got to get the roots in contact with the contamination. Sod-forming grasses work well in certain situations, because they have a large root surface in contact with the soil.

Kathy Banks

The greed is back, that's always under the surface. The speculation is back and people are trying to get in before [the stock triples].

Francis Gaskins

I think it surprised me in just how Earthlike Titan's surface appeared to be.

Linda Spilker

Everything we have seen indicates that, although we will be among the Bermuda grass sites farthest north, we will be able to maintain a surface that is playable and attractive from spring to late November.

Steve Simmerman

The whale spit fish at the surface of the pool and then sank below and waited. The gull came down to get the fish, and the whale grabbed it.

Michael Noonan

I am predicting steady and substantial growth each year. It's a niche product, but there are many niche applications out there. We're just scratching the surface.

Leo White

The platform had fallen over in 250 feet of water. We knew we were on it because there were some gas bubbles coming to the surface.

John Jansen

In a while, one of us will go up to bedand the other one will follow.Then we will slip below the surface of the nightinto miles of water, drifting down and downto the dark, soundless bottomuntil the weight of dreams pulls us lower still.

William Collins

It really doesn't change it, ... A DUI is not a crime of moral turpitude. It doesn't rise to that level unless it was an incident where someone was hurt. It appears to be on the surface a standard DUI arrest. It will not impact his immigration status.

Scott Shapiro

There'll be a lot of short-term specials and apparent flurries of activity that will, on the surface, appear to bring prices down, but at the end of the year there will not have been a lot of progress.

Ernie Newman

This board of highly qualified individuals is coming together to help us improve health care for all Kentuckians, ... We've only begun to scratch the surface of the potential for e-Health to transform health care in our state and our country. Technology can make health care safer, faster and more efficient.

Ernie Fletcher

She's back at the top of her game. She's back on a decent racing surface and she couldn't be doing any better.

Eric Kruljac

There are levels of bacteria on every surface of every house and every home. There are low levels of things that in high quantities are quite nasty.

Eric Haven

We found that a majority of the light reflected comes from a small percentage of the surface.

Eric Ford

There are input validation issues galore. Because AJAX moves application logic to the browser, there's a bigger attack surface.

Erik Peterson

Our technique puts a bed of antibiotic nails on the surface of the implant. The first time a bacterium lands on those nails, it dies.

Eric Wickstrom

It's painful to see that happen. But that's business. We had a contract to provide a good playing surface and we'll do that.

Engelbert Lehmacher

'Tis better to plumb the depths of unity than forever scratch the surface of variety.

Emile Zola

Since Keith in the early part of his career worked on the streets and on construction sites and everywhere was a surface for his art, we wanted to give some of that sort of urban street flavor to the exhibition.

Elisabeth Sussman

This is a confirmation that weather probably was a factor holding up activity [in November], but underneath the surface, the setback in December isn't even what it looks like. What I'm calling attention to specifically is the fact that single-family starts actually rose about 3.6 percent, while all the setback was in multi-family units.

Edward Mckelvey

If temperatures continue to increase in the tropical North Atlantic, many of the coral reefs there (and their ecosystems) may be affected by bleaching. Also, since hurricane development does depend on sea surface temperatures, the conditions necessary for hurricanes to form may be accentuated.

Edward Kearns

Erin isn't a back-to-the-basket player at the next level. She can face the basket and shoot it. She did a few more things as a senior than during the early stages of her Providence career. I think she has just scratched the surface in terms of her overall development. Coach Hallberg will certainly help her develop as an all-around player.

Eileen Copenhaver

Imagine a vast sheet of paper on which straight Lines, Triangles, Squares, Pentagons, Hexagons, and other figures, instead of remaining fixed in their places, move freely about, on or in the surface, but without the power of rising above or sinking below it, very much like shadows - only hard with luminous edges - and you will then have a pretty correct notion of my country and countrymen.

Edwin Abbott Abbott

The Northern Bank robbery and the murder of Robert McCartney demonstrate that the IRA does not require crates of Kalashnikov rifles or surface-to-air missiles to destabilize and derail the peace process. It just needs a knife, ... Secret History of the IRA.

Ed Moloney

Beneath The Surface .

Ed Asner

Few persons are made of such strong fiber that they will make a costly outlay when surface work will pass as well in the market.

E. M. Bounds

I can trust my team that they can play on any surface.

Zina Garrison
