Dennis Clarke
If we can develop as a team and overcome the challenges of being on the road that much, I think we can hit our stride by the middle of the season and potentially be pretty threatening. But those are a lot of ifs. We need to strive to improve one week at a time and see how good we can become.

Shahab Jalinoos
[Hardaway] sprained it and tried to play through it. The tissue stretched and basically he runs the chance of having a long-term detriment.

Thomas Stonewall Jackson
The principle should be that civilian nuclear power in itself is not the problem; the problem is dangerous regimes that will misuse it to develop weapons to threaten their neighborhood.

To the United States the Third World often takes the form of a black woman who has been made pregnant in a moment of passion and who shows up one day in the reception room on the forty-ninth floor threatening to make a scene.

The money they're offering is beyond anyone's expectations, yet the town could cannibalize its heritage and never quite recover.
Bill Pullman
We saw they couldn't match up inside. I told our guards that if they didn't get it inside, they weren't going to play. One thing I've learned in 30 years is that threatening playing time is something that always works.
Paul Andrews
In today's modern age, more and more people are using the Web to find their service providers. Your Web site is a great way for customers to ask questions in a non-threatening environment. In most cases, it's the first step in building a relationship. If I factor the money spent on our Web site over the past five years, it's a small investment to pay to gain two to four touches per day.

There are two Americas - and millions of the people already distinguish between them. One is the America of the imperialists - of the little clique of capitalists, land lords and militarists, who are threatening and terrifying the world.

It's 3 am. I believe it's a pistol in his pocket, and when they got inside, I would probably have a gun to my face and threatening my life.

Sean Murdock

Tami Ozegovich
Until you really know it's a life-threatening disease, you think food allergies are a sniffle or a cough. We're not talking about a sniffle or a cough. We're talking about breathing or not breathing.

Undersheriff Rick Scott
The state of our economy is tightly tied to the ability of our citizens to purchase needed fuel, ... Out-of-reach prices threaten Floridians at every level and every income scale, and the people deserve some kind of relief.
Charles Miller
Music therapy is a non-threatening form of intervention. It helps people open up. We've seen many people benefit, including those suffering from forms of dementia such as Alzheimer's.

Al Bumanis
I'd spoken to them and they'd agreed it wasn't my debt over the phone, but weeks later I'm getting an even more threatening letter.
Malcolm Campbell

Brian O'neill
I'm surviving a life-threatening illness. Many do not, such as those without celebrity and fortune who have to depend on the public healthcare system.
Patty Duke
This extreme ban will threaten the health and lives of women in South Dakota. History has shown that when women are denied access to abortion care they may resort to desperate measures. Politicians in South Dakota have turned their backs on the women of their state.
Talcott Camp
They threaten in official and unofficial ways. We do not have any other choice. I understand that Moscow Mayor Yuri Luzhkov has agreed and we may ask permission from the Russian authorities.
Marko Milosevic
We are not threatening, but we want to get more positive elements in the framework.
Chancellor Wolfgang Schüssel
The Indians began to be troublesome all around me, killing and wounding cattle, stealing horses, and threatening to attack us. I was obliged to make campaigns against them and punish them.
John Sutter

Robert Talbut
It could be life-threatening to those people. Those people are already living on a precipice and could be pushed off. Those people are encouraged not to come back to the city.
Peter Deblieux
We have always been strongly opposed to anything that would threaten the separate identities of the British football associations and that has not and will not change. The present set-up has been around, in our case, since 1873 and we have separate privileges within FIFA and UEFA. From a football perspective, that is more important than participation in an Olympic Games.
David A. Taylor

Sir Roy Trotman
The retirement of the baby boomers and a lack of qualified job candidates are threatening the ability of manufacturers to replace skilled workers and add more jobs, even as their business prospects improve.
Peter Gioia

States like these and their terrorist allies constitute an axis of evil, arming to threaten the peace of the world.

John Sullivan
More often than not, this rich stem cell source is discarded as medical waste after childbirth, ... This pioneering initiative will enable us to pursue all options -- umbilical, placental and embryonic -- and let science point the way to stem cell cures, offering hope to the millions of people that suffer from life-threatening conditions.
Richard Codey
Anytime a storm enters the Gulf, it has the potential of threatening the Mississippi Gulf Coast. All eyes need to be watching, paying close attention to the news media. Anything we get from the National Hurricane Center, we'll release immediately.
Larry Moore
The biggest constraint is the ... government's fear that economic opening up and reform will unleash social and political changes that will threaten political control.

Tony Travers
New England is the champion and they're just as a threatening as the No. 1 seed in most people's eyes because they've done it three times in four years. They're an amazing team.

Heather Saucier
It's getting to be a fairly old spacecraft and it's been having a number of issues; none of them are considered life-threatening.

I don't want to threaten lawsuits. But they should have a reasonable expectation that there would be legal action taken to prevent the school from being there.
Dean Turney
Property taxes have become an 800-pound gorilla on the back of North Dakota property owners and renters. Property taxes have become so out of balance that they threaten the ability of seniors to stay in their homes, and threaten the dream of home ownership for our young people and working families.
Brent Edison
That it was getting destroyed wasn't going to stop me, ... It was just part of the process. I wasn't attached to the outcome but understanding why this was so threatening.
Adam Horowitz
You know, a lot of times if you can't throw the deep ball, teams put more guys in the box than you can block. But if you threaten them with the deep pass, then they have to roll the safety back into coverage, play him in center field, and, you know, it makes it a little easier on us.
Tyler Reed
We certainly hope it acts as a deterrent, even if it benefits one case. These cases are so terrible that they can be life threatening or fatal.
Fran Humphries
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's to a new intensity, escalating into physical fights, getting arrested for sending threatening letters over e-mail. In my day, it was just mean letters. It was unusual to see girls fight in school. Now, I hear it's not unusual at all to see girls fight in schools.
Cheryl Dellasega
It's only normal to have in the back of your mind, especially when you're dealing with true-caliber criminals. A lot of these people, that's the way they are, they threaten people.

Alexander Henry
The first call came from the National Guard in King of Prussia. They said my son had been injured; that his wounds were not life threatening, and that four other guys had been killed.
Sharon Hill
The consumer segment is a cash-cow business. The cable companies threaten that cash cow. If the Bells did nothing, in all likelihood that cow would be slaughtered.

Norm Stamper
We don't know the extent of his injuries, but it's not life-threatening.

The point is to meet people and learn about people in a very non-threatening way. We don't really have an agenda except to get to know people because it's harder to hate people you know.
Judyth Lessee
Every day, our staff and volunteers provide a comforting presence to individuals and families facing life-threatening illnesses, grief and loss. Fox Valley Hospice remains committed to providing care that treats the person, not the disease, and emphasizes the quality of life, not the duration.
Nancy Vance
It was more for the safety of herself given the nature of her behavior. She wasn't threatening people at that time. Employees had reported that her behavior was strange.
Randy Degasperin
It wasn't a life-threatening situation. He just couldn't get out.
Lynn Brown
You don?t know what?s going on in someone?s personal life, it could be in shambles. So many people in this world are walking on eggshells. Don?t demean them or embarrass them or threaten them.
Chris Mcgoey
If anybody has done more moving or more threatening to move than Al Davis, I don't know. Is he in the business of moving each time there's a big money opportunity or is he in the business of developing a loyal fan base?
Stephen Greyser
The weekend's violence was much more deep-seated than many are perhaps prepared to accept. There has been a build-up of resentment that those who practice violence get listened to and have their concerns addressed ... Republicans are seen to influence government by threatening force and getting rewarded for their efforts.
Reg Empey
Three of (the victims) were transported to a local hospital and are being treated with non-life-threatening injuries.
Scott Fear
South Dakota should focus its efforts on ensuring that women have access to the full range of reproductive health services, including contraception and medically accurate sexuality education, instead of banning abortion. We would do well to focus our efforts on prevention instead of passing laws that not only threaten women's health and lives but are also blatantly unconstitutional.
Jennifer Ring
This is a life-threatening situation. I don't worry about politeness in life-threatening situations.
Tonia Caselman
Sending a threatening e-mail is the same thing as threatening someone to their face. That's easy to understand.

Barbara Buckley
The escalating food crisis in Kenya is threatening to plunge the affected region into a level of conflict that hasn't been seen for almost a decade.
Gezahegn Kebede
The art here is playful enough to break down the boundaries of suspicion and fear some people have around contemporary art. Some people have reticence about viewing art, fearing they'll be thought stupid if they don't 'get it.' These sculptures engage them without being threatening, while still adhering to the principles of contemporary art.
Jake Seniuk
He would get punched, they would grab him by the neck and push him up against his locker. Threaten to snap his neck, and just go on and on.
Charlotte Ross

Jody Williams

Stjepan Mesic
They killed us on counterattacks. We passed the ball very well and we were threatening a couple of times in the first half. But they made us pay on the counter attack.
Shannon Glidwell

Marcus Rogers
I have to be very aware of the increasing downside risks that threaten the overall global situation.
Ralph Goodale

Maj. Lloyd Crowe
He was cute and handsome, but not in an off-putting or threatening way. He seemed like a guy little teenage girls would love, but also their mothers would love too.
Dan Schneider
I do see Eclipse eating away at the non-Microsoft IDE environment, but I think that it doesn't threaten Microsoft's IDE at all.
Ronald Schmelzer
With the ongoing political tensions in Iran and with Nigerian militants threatening more attacks on oil companies, short covering should push prices higher next week. Speculators still hold a considerable amount of short positions. With the current news flow, those investors should feel increasingly uncomfortable with their positions.
Tobias Merath
It was a fairly straight-forward bank robbery case. The only issue was … that somehow, this was not threatening behavior and shouldn't constitute a robbery charge.
Prosecutor Stew Menefee
In those meetings, they discussed what they were going to do, who was going to be a candidate, what strategies they would use, even whom they would threaten.
Cesar Gaviria
If he voted today, he clearly would never vote for Republicans. He wouldn't support the war in Iraq. He would say this administration didn't have a plan. He would say they have broken international laws and they have now been spying on Americans. Paine would have been outraged that they had been acting in a way which would threaten American freedom.
Harvey Kaye
A certain (criminal) is threatening to eliminate me. I am not frightened for myself … but I will mercilessly fight crime with all legal means available to me.
Felix Kulov
Health and fitness is the first-line approach to avoiding debilitating and even life-threatening complications that come with overweight, such as diabetes, heart disease, high blood pressure,?;stroke and joint problems. Imagine walking into the doctor's office and being told you have diabetes. Why go there?
Laura Sechrest
Irregular contact with doctors means many men fail to receive any preventive care for potentially life-threatening conditions. In addition, when men do seek care, embarrassment can often prevent them from openly discussing health concerns with their physicians.
Michael Crapo
Threatening people who do not believe as you do is not Christian behavior.
Linda Wood
Gasoline prices are going through the roof and the situation is threatening our jobs.
Bob Alexander
How should I threaten.
Thomas Cromwell
This is a harsh and ill thought out policy based on the flawed logic that making families destitute and threatening to take their children into care will coerce them into going home.
Maeve Sherlock
[Though a brief downpour did threaten festival activities Wednesday, Mack said the weather forecast for the remainder of the rally looks clear.] Im glad it rained because behind the clouds, it looks cool and clear for the next four days, ... [The festival] is running as smooth as its ever been.
Greg Mack
The Fed is saying that they're willing to keep the experiment of strong growth without inflation going, but that they won't hesitate to raise rates if they see problems. Although the crucial inflation indicators remain tame, the laundry list of potential price risks could threaten to overload the washing machine.
Adam Blankman
[That message apparently got through to Jermaine Williams, a fifth grader at Carmen Arace, where kids traipse through the halls with their heavy, magnesium-cased laptops and book bags strapped to luggage carts.] Sending a threatening e-mail is the same thing as threatening someone to their face, ... That's easy to understand.
Jermaine Williams
Not too many contractors would stop with the threatening presence of police. Some solution will have to be found, because the men are not going to leave. They live here (in Mamaroneck) and it has been their outlet for finding work for decades.
Mariana Boneo
They threaten to indict you in order to get you to testify consistently with their notion of the facts against the target they want. If you do, your life can continue. If you tell the truth, and stand on your moral conviction, you get indicted.
Richard Scrushy
