William Wise

The transmission was leaking, the tires were locking up. They are going to change the oil too.

Mary Ryan

There is no transmission from human to human so far with a mutation of the virus. We are not there at the moment, but it is the responsibility for the WHO to look at this. . . . There is no reason to panic.

Dr. Marc Danzon

As long as we're dealing only with migratory birds being found here and there, I don't think it's a big deal, frankly. The big issue is if we start to have domestic poultry infected. Then it would start to be a problem ... a higher risk for transmission to humans.

Dr. Guenael Rodier

[Right now] it is not highly contagious. This one has not made that mutational step. That is the shoe we hope never falls. As of right now it is very difficult for this type of transmission to happen. There are only a handful of examples.

Laurie Garrett

We were able to get our new silicon modulator to control the transmission of laser light, while using 10× less power than normally needed for silicon modulators.

Ray Chen

We have also observed that just like in the other parts of the world as well as in the United States (monetary policy transmission) has not had much effect on the longer term rates.

Creating a vaccine to prevent transmission of HIV, or at least to limit its pathogenic and epidemic potential, is one of the great challenges of our time.

Bette Korber

Jon has the breadth and depth of background in energy matters that a candidate should have for appointment to the FERC. Additionally, he understands regional differences when it comes to transmission planning issues.

Richard Mcintire

If a person is infected with a human influenza and also contracts avian influenza ... the two kinds of influenza could mix and re-assort themselves into a more dangerous strain that could cause easy human-to-human transmission.

Aphaluck Bhatiasevi

The study showed there were no references to important consequences of unsafe sex such as HIV transmission, spread of STDs, or unwanted pregnancy. The social norm being presented in movies is concerning given the HIV and illicit drug pandemics in developing and industrialized countries.

We're focused on things that will do one of three things. Put more electrons into the system, more electricity, reduce the demand by conservation and energy efficiency, and make the transmission, distribution, billing and generating system more efficient.

Debra Bowen

We have not seen and continue to not to see casual transmission in our cases. It is perfectly safe to walk down the street in Toronto.

James Young

FDA's investigation of BTS revealed serious and widespread deficiencies in their manufacturing practices that provide the agency reason to believe that allowing the firm to manufacture would present a danger to public health by increasing the risk of communicable disease transmission.

Margaret Glavin

Surveillance is crucial because, in my view, the outbreaks affecting transmission among chickens were there for some time without being noticed.

Dr Shigeru Omi

The great accomplishments of man have resulted from the transmission of ideas and enthusiasm.

Thomas J. Watson

People have to have access to information in order to do their jobs, and we need to make them understand what is secure and what is an unsecured venue for information transmission.

Allan Rodgers

We're just sitting here with our fingers crossed and hoping the eye goes east of us. If the TVA transmission lines go down, we'll go down, because we're dependent on them. Our system is in good shape, but when you get 80-100 mile per hour winds, it's hard to predict what's going to happen. We're making preparations for the worst, but hoping for the best.

James D. Watson

We're assuming the worst, that there has been likely transmission to health care workers, that there has been transmission to families and that there has probably been transmission to other patients, and that it provides the link to St. John's Hospital that we didn't recognize last night.

Donald Low

Prevention and control of bird outbreaks is of chief importance. If we fail to do that well, then sooner or later there will be transmission from birds to human.

Jia Youling

I reluctantly agreed to pull half our transmission line crews off other projects and made getting the transmission lines to the Collins substations a priority.

Jim Compton

It was about midnight when hooded men ... raided our offices and ordered the night duty staff to switch off the transmission.

Farida Karoney

We will actually energize the project in June. That means we will be connecting it with the rest of the transmission grid.

Brian Carpenter

If that happens, the transmission could engage into first or second gear unexpectedly.

Bob Klein

If it is proven to be human-to-human transmission, ... then we have to be very careful and we might have to close the border.

York Chow

There is no chance of transmission occurring.

Troy Thompson

In the long term, certainly anything that the federal government can do to expedite the creation and ... construction of power plants, of transmission lines will improve the situation. In the short term, any conservation measures that they can help promulgate will help the situation.

Tim Gallagher

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

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

Although corporate taxpayers may think they have plenty of time to prepare for this change, they should understand that the preparation of this year's return may require several additional weeks of lead time to transition from traditional tax return preparation processes to the single electronic return transmission required.

Michael Dolan

There hasn't been an awful lot of transmission infrastructure built in the state since the 1970s. We have a very constrained system that's really operating at its limits.

Joe Domino

In the age of the Internet, with instantaneous data transmission, this shouldn't be that difficult to set up.

Mike Whalen

Scott found a Superfund site vacant for many years and not on the tax rolls. It matched all our criteria. It's close to transmission lines and highways.

Daniel Donovan

Cat-to-human transmission is theoretically possible and not to be excluded.

Albert Osterhaus

The transmission mechanism for inflation from political instability is usually through the exchange rate. However, this time around, the peso quickly recovered and I would expect it to remain strong for the rest of the year based on continuing structural economic reforms.

Luz Lorenzo

Hopefully, being out of school will stop the transmission.

Doug Schultz

It was a transmission emergency. If the line went down and it was much cooler, then the ISO may not have declared an emergency.

Paul Klein

We're speculating on something I don't know the answer to. We just don't know that, because we haven't established that there is that transmission. But it is unlikely that you would be standing around a chicken and get the influenza virus that way.

Keiji Fukuda

Even if transmission can be eliminated now in humans, there likely is an animal reservoir out there which means it can be reintroduced into humans at any time.

Jim Hughes

In the transmission of human culture, people always attempt to replicate, to pass on to the next generation the skills and values of the parents, but the attempt always fails because cultural transmission is geared to learning, not DNA.

Gregory Bateson

They always come back and the females never leave, so it is unlikely they are contributing to large-scale transmission of CWD, ... A big key for understanding transmission is young bucks. They are the only segment of the population that makes permanent movement out of their home ranges.

Nancy Mathews

It's not related to operating reserves. It is a transmission emergency.

Stephanie Mccorkle

It just seems to be the next step for us with the additional work bays and classroom space. Right now, our students get training in the areas of engine performance, steering and suspension, electrical and electronics and brakes. With the post-secondary program, we would add air conditioning and complete engine and transmission work.

Bruce Mcclure

We couldn't think of any other possible exposure, so that leaves the possibility of human-to-human transmission open.

Barbara Reynolds

It was an isolated event. That's not to say it can't happen again. Big power generators and big transmission lines do trip off occasionally.

Gregg Fishman

[The electrical grid handled by Hydro One, which has 17,000 miles of high-power electric transmission lines throughout Ontario, managed the blip] very well, ... we continue to be disappointed with the striking staff who seem to want to scaremonger on this incident.

Peter Gregg

We're not aware of any information that indicates using a toothbrush without sterilizing it causes disease transmission or prolongs disease.

Cliff Whall

He may have an intention to privatize distribution and transmission, which at least is something. Probably it will end his feud with foreign minority shareholders.

Renato Lobo

There is no chance of transmission occurring. We just want to make sure the public knows that there is no public health concern.

Troy Thompson

If I am using a telephone line to hook up to the Internet and then once I get on the Internet I'm using voice to communicate with you, how do you characterize the transmission of that data? Is it packets of information and is it (just another phone call)?

Fred Mcclure

The worst situation is a panic situation. There is no reason to panic. There is no transmission from human being to human being through a mutation that could cause a pandemic.

Dr. Marc Danzon

I can't quite remember a race like this, ... It all started out fine. Our Mr. Gas Dodge was strong and we were making headway, in fact, by Lap 69 we were in the lead. We dropped back to second and then just before the halfway point our troubles began. All of a sudden, we got tagged which resulted in a spin out and, if that wasn't enough, for some strange reason, it broke the transmission.

Scott Lynch

The BBC liked it so much it already wants even more space than was originally allotted to it. It had to borrow transmission space to launch a children's educational content channel on DTT.

Patrick Von Sychowski

You can break the chain of transmission into the human population. The best place to break it is either to protect the domestic birds from the migratory birds. Or alternatively, remove humans from the domestic birds and break the chain of transmission and you are halfway there.

John Oxford

This is the most in-depth study done within the U.S. prison system on HIV transmission, making it a landmark study.

Jeff Graham

Will the suit overheat? How long will the batteries last? Can we get a clear transmission if the suit tumbles?

Frank Bauer

We've essentially doubled our population, doubled our load, over the last 23 years. Yet we have not added any new infrastructure to serve that, from the standpoint of transmission.

Jim Avery

By dramatically changing the landscape, we are tipping the balance in a way that is increasing the risk of malaria transmission. This is one of the most detailed quantitative field studies in the Amazon that directly addresses the potential link between deforestation and malaria.

Jonathan Patz

The SANBTS has in fact followed this policy for years and it is based on international practice and on data in international medical publications that men who have sex with men showed increased risk of HIV transmission and other blood infections.

Ianthe Exall

It's not what we call extensive human-to-human transmission ... It doesn't mean mutation.

Georg Petersen

The Kyrgyz Republic is located in Central Asia on a major migratory flyway path and the current capacity in the country to monitor migratory birds and potential transmission of disease to local poultry and among local poultry is very weak. This is definitely a country that needs assistance immediately.

Juergen Voegele

Honestly, the fix for this is a more robust grid. Entergy has not invested in transmission as I think it should. It's a standing issue I had as a regulator and still have with this company.

Pat Wood

There was almost constant interaction ? mouth-to-mouth interaction, grooming. When we talk about issues such as disease transmission, boy, it's sure useful to know how much in contact they are with one another.

Josh Millspaugh

Close quarters, poor hygiene. It just makes for a hotbed of infection in day-care centers. Preschool kids have a high level of (flu) transmission, and they bring it home.

John Brownstein

Intelligence is the capacity to receive, decode and transmit information efficiently. Stupidity is blockage of this process at any point. Bigotry, ideologies etc. block the ability to receive; robotic reality-tunnels block the ability to decode or integrate new signals; censorship blocks transmission.

Robert Anton Wilson

For applications that needed the close-spaced gears of a 13, 15, or 18-speed transmission to ensure proper power, acceleration and maximum fuel economy, today's 10-speed may be the perfect fit, without the cost premium or operational complexity.

Charlie Allen

The fact that the parasite manipulates the mosquito to this extent can help to explain the incredibly intense transmission of malaria.

Jacob Koella

Mosquitoes are a very important agent for transmission of zoonotic diseases, ... I'd worry first about mosquitoes and then about water quality.

Leon Russell

For example, the shift control sensors detect acceleration and prepare for the coming up shift by actuating the next gear in the sequence on the parallel gear shaft, but leaving the clutch open until the driver manually shifts. The same process occurs in reverse as speeds decrease and the transmission prepares for a downshift.

Michl Koch

We believe data transmission and voice transmission are all telecommunications.

Richard Morris

The pattern in which photons are blocked or not blocked had never really been computed. In the laboratory, we were able to construct a device that was effectively like doing a computer simulation to see the patterns of transmission.

Paul Steinhardt

The rate at which this technology has been adopted is remarkable, the fastest I have ever seen in the motor sector, faster even than the airbag, automatic transmission or electric windows. From the consumer standpoint, it's wonderful, because you get flexibility and you don't have to pay for it.

Barry Engle

That transmission immediately changes the flag on the record, and the [district attorney] can see that the case is now available to him via a rolling record on his terminal. So the police officer is sending that information to the same file that the DA is looking at, but until that sent flag is in place, the DA can't see the data.

Jimmy Ray

We took tremendous damage from Hurricane Rita to our transmission system and those customers north of Houston are actually helping us because we are having some severe load-balancing problems. So, by conserving energy up there, they are actually helping us get the transmission grid back online. We expect to make some progress in the next few days.

Dave Caplan

Regardless of its geographic origin, people quickly began to notice that the pox traveled from one person to another. They sometimes blamed transmission on common and morally innocuous practices - drinking from a common cup, kissing friends in church, following a syphilitic comrade on the latrine.

Peter Lewis Allen

This is a protective operation that occurs automatically when the equipment detects a problem. In this case, it de-energized the circuits to protect transformers and the larger transmission line. The cause of the fault was animal contact.

Tim Gause

In the end, it didn't matter, ... because we had transmission problems with it not going into second gear.

Kurt Johnson

If there's evidence of human-to-human transmission, there will be small clusters. We are not at that stage.

Henk Bekedam

They would like to see people more sheltered at home to lower risk of transmission.

Deb Steffen

Interest in dual clutch transmissions is primarily a European phenomenon. In North America, automatic hydraulic clutch systems make up the dominant share of the market. They may seem a brilliant element in vehicle engineering, as they operate themselves without use of a third pedal, however they result in higher fuel consumption when compared to a manual transmission.

Michl Koch

The minute evidence of human to human transmission becomes clear, the hysteria in the media will go through the roof. We have to have access to sober and realistic information.

Donald Donahue

We remain sobered by the ongoing transmission in Hong Kong, China and probably Singapore.

Dr. Julie Gerberding

They (the dead) were certainly all in contact with the same source of infection, but they (the WHO team) will also try to see whether we are looking at the first cases of human-to-human transmission.

Fadela Chaib

The project will increase China's pipeline gas transmission capacity from 12 billion cubic meters a year to 17 billion cubic meters. It will help meet China's huge demand for natural gas.

Claudi Santiago

Clearly, air travel puts people in a confined situation, so the possibility of transmission of mumps is very realistic.

Tom O'rourke

The transmission of HIV/AIDS is preventable, avoidable and inexcusable to not do something to stop it.

Mike Dewine

Its transmission technique is somewhat similar to Melissa. Once launched, it downloads an executable backdoor program from one of four Web sites. That program, Win_bug6, steals passwords stored on that computer and sends them to an e-mail address in the Philippines.

Chris Rouland

The first working hypothesis is that the children touched, played with sick chickens and were infected that way. But they are also going to try to see if we are faced with a first case of human-to-human transmission, which would be the start of a flu epidemic.

Fadela Chaib

It's the transmission of digital copy on the Internet (that's the problem), we have no problem with using content in multiple ways in one's own home.

Peter Chernin

We will get rid of the manual transmission, which is the keyboard, ... Voice recognition is the automatic transmission that will change everything.

Jay Walker

This powerful combination of the best in transmission repair and car care will make our services even more convenient to our customers.

Brian O'donnell

We're all dealing with mechanical systems that are subject to a lot of variables. We're not perfect and don't claim to be. But we have invested a considerable amount into transmission infrastructure and generation plants so we'll be prepared as best we can.

Dave Caplan

Internet Explorer is not a stand-alone browser because the relevant integration occurred at the design stage. Internet Explorer is an integral feature (of Windows '95), like a shutter in a camera or a transmission in a car.

John Warden

I am sure commuting plays a significant part in the transmission of the flu. It's hard to isolate our area from the Bay Area, so when something happens in the Bay Area, we assume it will be here shortly.

Dale Bishop

Throughout the west there is increasing interest in Wyoming as a source of power supply. Today's announcement is a significant step forward in building the multi-state cooperation necessary to ensure that the required transmission lines interconnecting the west are built.

Steve Waddington

We believe there has been a consistent pattern of neglect to the transmission and distribution center at Edison for a period of years now.

Pat Clark

New permit limits will ... allow us to keep the units available more often. This is important to ensure reliability of the electrical transmission grid in the area.

Charlie Schrock

There was enough power to meet that demand until we lost the major resource on the transmission line.

Gregg Fishman

We're importing 25 percent to 30 percent of our electricity. Demand keeps growing, and we need transmission to get it here. Coal is a really vast resource.

Dorothy Rothrock

The transmission cycles in the Northeast and Midwest are very different than out here.

Bob Lane

Where do we want to go for the state of South Dakota with renewable fuels, with transmission grids, with all the factors, economic incentives and the like to really provide opportunity for people in South Dakota?

Jack Billion

It is very clear that voice communications is moving on to the Internet, ... In the end, the price that anyone can provide for voice transmission on the Net will trend toward zero.

Meg Whitman

You get lots of animals confined in a pretty tight area, so there are concerns about disease transmission.

Paul Johansen

This conversion process will probably present a few problems in the future and we apologize for any data transmission errors. However, we want to remind customers that once everything is in place and working, this new system will be a real advantage.

David Hooper

In addition to the physical contact, it surprised us to find that these immune cells also have machinery to take up serotonin and to secrete it in an excitatory manner. The point behind this transmission is not entirely clear, but it appears to be an additional way of stimulating a T cell response.

Gerard Ahern

If you think of the substation as a giant electrical outlet, the wind farm will plug into the substation at the site. Connecting to our substation is access to our transmission lines. Once it's come into the system, it can go anywhere on our transmission system.

Claudia Rapkoch

Data transmission is within our field of use, that's what (the agreement) says and it is inescapable.

Anthony Grabiner

Ford has chosen to extend their current business with us, and that will go through 2008. But the 6R is the cornerstone for their future transmission. And they've chosen us to work with that transmission.

Mary Ryan

What the customers told them is they wanted something with an automatic transmission, with a steering wheel, with a high degree of fuel range. (The Stallion) has about 450 miles of fuel range in one drive.

Wayne Tompkins

I said no, what you've got now is cheap transmission and it doesn't work. We're going to give you adequate transmission and that is going to save money on energy.

Jos Delgado

I'm not sure what broke first but the transmission didn't want to be connected to the differential anymore.

Joe Kantarik

It's certainly still in the community. The sooner it's identified and treated, the sooner the transmission chain is broken.

Cindy Gross

And they were solid blacked out when we got started. Even their transmission lines were down.

Elbert Mccullough

It became popular amongst celebrities, so people started buying it by the masses. It's just like today, when a famous person scoops up a bike, people are sure to want to purchase one like it. Motorcycles set trends. It also introduced an auto-transmission still used right up to today.

Edward Youngblood

This virus is not yet adapted to humans, it is not capable of human-to-human transmission and until that happens this will not be a pandemic strain.

Zsuzsanna Jakab
