Joel Klein

Jedi's absence from the Open is understandable. This is the first time in its history that Jedi has competed here. When entries for our six tournaments were received before the season start, the Jedi team wasn't entered in the Open.
Jimmy Newman
What I love about her is she makes dreams more understandable. There is so much we don't understand in this world...we only use 10 percent of our brains. There's 90 percent where we just don't understand (things) ... working with Susan, we're using some of that 90 percent.

Charles Branson
I honestly don't think I'd want anybody else as manager. Heck, he was basically a coach when he was a player here. The fans love him. The other teams' coaches and players respect him. He was our focus once it was clear and understandable why Jim couldn't commit to coming back.
Marc Jerzak
Vulgarized knowledge characteristically gives birth to a feeling that everything is understandable and explained. It is like a system of bridges built over chasms. One can travel boldly ahead over these bridges, ignoring the chasms. It is forbidden to look down into them; but that, alas, does not alter the fact that they exist.
Czeslaw Milosz
He did a very good job of making a complex story very understandable for the jury.

They've really abandoned the previous argument, and what's important is that this new brief is clear and understandable and consistent with the antidiscrimination policy that the California Medical Association and Kaiser Permanente have had for a long time.
Jennifer Pizer
People have this obsession. They want you to be like you were in 1969. They want you to, because otherwise their youth goes with you. It's very selfish, but it's understandable.

Laura Halldorson
While others may be surprised by the tremendous 16 percent rise in support of the national sales tax, I'm not. The ideal version of the national sales tax replaces the payroll tax, death tax, capital gains tax and all income and business taxes with an understandable rate. The more people know about the national sales tax, the more they like it.

Nick Parsons
It should be FDA's job to make sure [ads are] understandable.

Peter Magowan
This documentary is the first attempt since 1957 to revisit the thoughts and ideas of Albert Schweitzer using the technological tools of today. It is also an attempt to make Schweitzer understandable to the youth of today using a medium through which they are used to receiving and processing information.

Jane Hagar
I think it is an understandable and pretty predictable course for him to take. Murdoch is a nervous guy. The idea that he might be missing out on something is awfully painful. But he is just dipping his toes in. Why buy these? Partly because he can afford them. He's not making big bets here.
Michael Wolff
They told Barry straight up they wanted to sit down and talk to him. It's understandable with all the problems I've had in the past. No one is going to open the door right away. They had the concern.

Sidney Ponson
Technology like Bluetooth is an important step in getting components that can be blended in a simpler, more understandable way.

Charles R. Figley
The idea is to use digital, mechanical math so that as time goes by, it doesn't drift as it does with analog gears.

Alexander Rose
What's not understandable is how important or unimportant the various components are.
Claudia Reid
Almost every time since the Oct. 9 low that we've had a pullback of 2 percent or more, and we've had five or six, I think, they've all been on lighter volume. What that's telling you is that the institutions are not changing the [buying] trend -- they are not bailing out of stocks. I think it's a normal and understandable pause.
Stephen Porpora
Each generation of the church in each setting has the responsibility of communicating the gospel in understandable terms, considering the language and thought-forms of that setting.
Francis Schaeffer
We all understood why they called the game. If that happened to one of our players, we wouldn't have really had the mindset to play -- we wouldn't have even cared -- so I'm glad they didn't make the Crimson Tide players go through that. It was understandable, and we had no problem with it. It was the right decision.
Jack Kramer
A pause today is disappointing but understandable, whilst the Bank reassesses the extent of the slowdown in the USA and impact the Budget has on business and consumer confidence.
Chris Humphries
It was a low-volume retreat. It's understandable. There's some profit taking, some lack of news and the ever-present geopolitical insecurity.
Stephen Porpora
Kate wanted a higher level of competition, which I was totally understandable. Also, American University is in D.C. and has a much higher ratio of international students.

They said Saddam had the electricity in Baghdad back on two months after the first Iraq War. It'd been two years after the start of the war when I was there, and the greatest nation on Earth couldn't even keep the lights on. It's understandable they're upset.
John Crawford
We were lucky to get Terry to help us with this project. He is not just an expert angler but also a gifted teacher. Terry puts on dozens of fishing seminars throughout the year, so he knows how to convey his knowledge to anglers in an understandable and entertaining way.
Tim Smalley
It's time now to redirect resources towards supporting studies that try to understand how religious faith influences people's health and well-being through understandable mechanisms.
Harold Koenig
I think everyone believes the income tax system is not too understandable. I'm proposing the flat tax to get rid of deductions. However I would include a $15,000 dependency deduction so a family of four wouldn't pay taxes until they reach over $60,000 in taxable income.
Charles Weasel
He just wants a respectable deal to play under for the years to come, and right now we are not at that point with Minnesota. With the right to match, the urgency isn't there, and that is understandable from a business aspect.
Alvin Keels
Taxes would be from just two sources. We understand there's a limit to the taxes people are willing to pay and we've tried to make this as understandable as possible, but people understand we have to get these projects under way.
Julia Patterson
She was pretty raw and technically she didn't know what was going on and that's understandable. So we sat back and laughed. We had all been there, we had all been the ones who didn't know what to do. I remember my first film was terrifying, so it was nice to sit back like I was Jack Lemmon or something.
Skeet Ulrich
To be where she's at after what happened is really impressive. She hasn't been patient with herself and that's understandable because she's a real competitor, but her best vaulting will be at the end of the year. And hopefully she's back to where she was then.
Rob Ridnour
Many of the victims direct all their anger at Cardinal Mahony. It's unfair and somewhat misdirected, although understandable.
Tod Tamberg
Neff wanted to shift the paradigm. He said no matter who you are under this kind of circumstance that being war it will leave a mark, and that mark is predictable and understandable, and we need to do something about it.
Charles R. Figley
They are scared. It's understandable. It's not a safe and fun place and a lot of people don't want to take the chance.
Craig Morton
What we would like to do is have an opportunity for people to see our presentations. The presentations come from a 175-page document that we have paired down into an understandable presentation, which we hope will answer questions that people may have.
Wiley Dobbs
I'm very excited for our students, but am disappointed that so few teams participated. This is understandable, because academic decathlon requires a quite a bit of time and a strong commitment.
Rick Pillsbury
I've always felt that one of the strengths I've had over the years is being able to communicate with jurors in straightforward, simple, understandable terms. I grew up in a very simple, straightforward world.

Kristen Holloway
They're scared. It's understandable. It's not a safe and fun place, and a lot of people don't want to take the chance.

Eryn Witcher
He's seeing a lot of different things right now, and it's understandable for a young quarterback (to struggle), but we have to be able to make plays, whether we take shots up the field or do something different to get him in a rhythm.
Eric Moulds
It's understandable that from time to time there'd be a need for executive sessions, but the device should be used very sparingly. Good government evolves from trust and a willingness to work together.
Ellis Anderson
I'm now trying to find a way to deal with the understandable hurt that I have caused.
