Courtney Mcinnis

The problem with crying wolf so many times over the years is that it waters down a legitimate cry.

They're aligning themselves with a very good name in the Internet space; the deal gives them a funnel for a pretty broad spectrum of products and services, even beyond their initial investment; and they're putting their toe in the waters of revenue sharing for Internet services. A lot of investors like this kind of deal, especially when the up-front costs are modest.

Daniel Kunstler

All I can figure is that the buffet floated, and when the waters receded it must have slowly tipped over and set those dishes down. And they were still stacked.

Louis Matto

Throughout the years, whenever darkness has touched my life, it has been a strong faith in God and a great network of friends that have carried me through the troubled waters and given me the strength to carry on.

Dick Murgatroyd

For most people, it represents a stable, solid investment in choppy waters.

Matthew Lloyd

John Owen

Our seniors, Andy Hill and Mike Waters, obviously have big goals of making it to the state tournament. I want to see all five kids keep their focus and conditioning up. I want them to wrestle well but relaxed and not let the pressure get to them.

Kevin Mcfann

William Brighty Rands

With fewer trout to stock, everything will be less. We'll need to do a better job with the waters we have. We have to look at the best opportunities for using fish and getting them to where anglers are.

Rick Lorson

The economic and insurance consequences of the 2005 Great New Orleans Flood will depend highly on how quickly authorities can respond to the event, ... The speed at which existing pumps are reactivated and additional pumping capacity is added will determine how rapidly the flood waters are removed. But this is only the first step in restoring services to flooded areas of the city.

Terry Pope

We're walking on uncharted waters.

Bobby Gaston

The water's going down and they're coming out. We're seeing a lot more now. When the water goes down, you see what they're tangled up on. I expect we'll see a lot more.

Tom Anderson

In T-Y Park [Hollywood], they put it along the fence and it smells so good for so long. But it's not an area where people walk. The Renaissance Festival at Quiet Waters Park [Deerfield Beach] also uses the mulch in February. They put it around the edges of the grounds.

Pat Raglin

Schwartz takes the helm of a ship apparently departing a long stretch of turbulent waters and picking up speed. If he's a smart leader, he'll keep it going in its current directions and build upon its current momentum ... and Jonathan Schwartz is nothing if not very smart.

Michael Dortch

A flood is defined as rising water, and it doesn't matter why the water is rising. If it rains faster than it can be pumped away, that's a flood. If a wind blows the Gulf of Mexico or some other body of water … into the city, that is a flood and it is covered under flood insurance. Rising waters, by definition, are excluded from a homeowner's policy.

Jeff Albright

On our waters in the southwest, we can expect good fishing up to Memorial Day, whereas in the southeast, it's usually only good to the middle of May.

Rick Lorson

We are now trying to help pregnant women who are also caught in the aftermath of the floods. Sick people cannot even get to the clinics because of the high level of waters surrounding their homes.

Les Claypool

High waters will sometimes take the fun things, that can happen with low waters, out of the race. Last year's event was a disaster, as far as weather goes.

David Reed

People don't realize you can get hypothermia in our waters. It's not as severe as in cold climates, but it happens all the time.

Jim Howe

We need to educate boaters in waters that are shallow to watch for the signs. There are very few navigational aids in areas like that.

David Ray

We'll address that when the season ends. I just have to sit down with Coach Waters and see where the direction of the program is going.

Dan Waterstradt

Hawaii is an island state, thousands of miles from anywhere. It's as if we are in a boat, caught in treacherous waters, needing to set sail for a better place. If I were to chart a course north, but you insisted on going south, then we would go nowhere. We would stay stuck exactly where we started.

Linda Lingle

I was kind of surprised because the way the wind was blowing, I thought there would be some concern about the possibility of rough waters.

Henry Wadsworth Longfellow

Today the economics are not there to say we're going to take all the water in the Great Lakes and ship it to Phoenix and Vegas. But water's not getting cheaper. Twenty-five, 30, 40 years from now, the economics are going to be different. We've got to have a system in place to deal with that.

Todd Ambs

This action sends an important message to the construction industry that they must properly control erosion, so they do not damage our nation's waters.

Jim Gulliford

Richard Ackerman

Conservation is the foresighted utilization, preservation and/or renewal of forests, waters, lands and minerals, for the greatest good of the greatest number for the longest time.

Scott Allen

Out on the waters, it's going to be a messy couple days.

Rick Canepa

Tsunemi Kubodera

The waters ahead are very warm. People from Florida to the Carolinas should really pay attention to this.

Todd Kimberlain

She plied the waters of Boston Harbor for many years. In 1927, she was sold to the Thames Company, converted to a freighter and renamed the Thames.

Joe Powers

The Fishable Waters Act shares the same intent of the Clean Water Act by proposing to fulfill goals that have not yet been met to restore and maintain the biological integrity of the nation's waters. The intent of the bill is to enhance the Clean Water Act instead of undercutting it.

Steve Moyer

When we needed to find a hippie bookstore that sold secondhand books, I thought of Abandoned Planet (518 Valencia St.), which is right across the street from where I used to live, ... When I was a starving writer-director-actor, I'd go to the Muddy Waters Cafe (521 Valencia St.) every day, buy a $3.50 burrito and eat half for lunch, half for dinner.

Muddy Waters

It is complete hypocrisy for governments to talk about encouraging aid to Africa at the same time as allowing the food and income they need to be stolen from their waters and sold in the markets of Europe. It is a pattern that is repeated globally and is the responsibility of all nations to act to make piracy history.

Helene Bours

The idea of leasing federal waters off the coast of Virginia comes in response to discussion in the state's legislature about the potential of energy development off its coast. However, no offshore development will occur off Virginia unless the state's congressional delegation works to lift the moratorium.

Johnnie Burton

The moving water creates a lot of force and it will push somebody up into an area where they can't get out. If somebody's in the water and the water's moving usually they don't realize there's a problem until they're actually in trouble.

Lt. Dana Maxfield

The evening advanced. The shadows lengthened. The waters of the lake grew pitchy black. The gliding of the ghostly swans became rare and more rare.

Wilkie Collins

If your house has got a gaping hole in the roof, and water's pouring in and it's undermining the whole house and the foundation, you don't say you're going to double up on the mortgage payments and just keep paying that off, and we're not going to care what happens to the house. You pay attention to fundamentals.

Peter Mclaughlin

It's a part of history. Where we lived in Ireland these boats plied the waters like for hundreds of years. We used to sail them as kids, nearly everybody had one of these boats only smaller.

Steve Mulkerrins

Going through the rough waters of the selection process makes us stronger. I hope to use this experience to do well in Turin.

Fumie Suguri

Feinstein is dipping her toe into the very ugly, muddy waters of religious bigotry.

Wendy Wright

Beware of silent dogs and still waters.

Portuguese Proverb

The water's all the way up to the roof and it's just one of those things you've never seen. It's hard to describe.

Joe Henderson

We do clearly want to send a message to would-be illegal operators that it is simply not worth your while to come into Australian waters and fish illegally.

Ian Macdonald

The still lake without ripples is an image of our minds at ease, so full of unlimited friendliness for all the junk at the bottom of the lake that we don't feel the need to churn up the waters just to avoid looking at what's there.

Pema Chodron

Soldiers encounter the horrors of war, and they are able to record it, ... You mix it with the porn site, now you muddy the waters.

Joe Curtin

His breath like silver arrows pierced the air, The naked earth crouched shuddering at his feet, His finger on all flowing waters sweet Forbidding lay - motion nor sound was there - Nature lay frozen dead - and still and slow, A winding sheet fell o'e.

Frances Anne Kemble

I never got a chance to meet (L.A. Waters), but I know he was a great man.

Kevin Lewis

Hard Rock's 35th anniversary promises to be one of the top global promotions of the summer.

We are thrilled to kick off the tour with The Who and Roger Waters -- two legends that have helped shape Hard Rock's history.

Hamish Dodds

(Waters) told me he was going to move me to the wing because we needed more points on the board. Quincy can't score all the points by himself.

Marquis Webb

It's still too early to tell exactly where the storm will go, ... But conditions are fairly good for intensification, with warm waters and favorable upper-level winds.

Colin Mcadie

The waters in the Gulf of Mexico are warm, but so are the waters in the eastern Atlantic. But the water temperature isn't the controlling factor in whether a hurricane maintains its strength. Wind shear still determines whether a storm will strengthen or weaken before it hits land.

Gerry Bell

[Sept. 12, 2005 issue - It wasn't exactly a surprise.] This ain't gonna last, ... The water's coming into the city.

Oliver Thomas

Look how noble the world is, the lonely-flowing waters, the secret-keeping stones, the flowing sky.

Robinson Jeffers

A very reasonable compromise between those who support further development ... to meet our growing energy demands and the citizens of Florida who oppose drilling in the waters off their coastline.

Gale Norton

We were still getting some oysters from waters in Louisiana and Texas and those may stop as soon as Rita makes landfall.

Bob Jones

I don't know if 'point of no return' is the choice of words John would use. I think the thing he'd say for you is, the water's under the bridge. Change is good in life sometimes, and for John moving forward, change would be good.

Rich Rosa

In three months the now placid waters of the Gulf of Mexico will begin to stir. It could be another stormy year.

Jeff Rubin

There's no question that the warm waters of the Gulf provided the heat that turned Katrina into a major storm.

Ross Gelbspan

We're seeing some investors testing the tech waters, but the urge to sell after slight rises is extremely strong. This trend is unlikely to change soon given uncertainty over the high-tech profit outlook.

Yoshihisa Okamoto

This is an area known as Cancer Alley, and there's a good reason for that. Contaminants were already a problem (in local waters).

David Lewis

The waters continue to rise, and there's a lot of worry. If it rains another week, it doesn't look good.

John Herrick

The problem is that the villagers leave their houses only at the last moment when the waters start flooding in. We really have to persuade them to leave earlier.

Sushil Kumar

We don't know much about Edward Waters. And we can't know for sure how some of our new guys are going to play until they get into a game.

Rod Broadway

Jerry Maguire: Jump in my nightmare, the water's warm!

Tom Cruise

This clarity is going to be really helpful to Republican donors. Basically we can say, 'Come on in, the water's fine. Everybody into the pool. Let's go and really get our message out there.' .

David Keating

Once Irene hits the icy waters of the North Atlantic in about 48 hours, any remaining tropical characteristics should quickly disappear.

Stacy Stewart

There just may be a lot of people who are still down in those deep waters, and some of the waters were 10, 12, 15 feet deep. My biggest fear is that we will find something down there that is way out of proportion. Hopefully, it doesn't happen, but we worry.

Frank Minyard

I want to dispel any notion that coach Waters' resignation was due to the unfortunate circumstances surrounding his missing our game with Marquette. That is simply not true.

Robert Mulcahy

Right now, we talked to them. And they say the water's to the ankles. They went outside. It's to the waist.

Michelle Campbell

There is sometimes a placebo effect when it comes to bottled waters. You feel that you're doing something special for yourself.

Lisa Dorfman

We cannot say definitively that they are North Korean vessels or that they have entered North Korean territorial waters.

Hiromu Nonaka

We've been saying from the beginning that we wanted to get the number of positions down. It waters down the portfolio too much.

Robert Friedman

We've had a mild winter and the water's warmer, and we'll be short-staffed until our staff gets out of school. They've been doing a fantastic job so far.

Bob West

Get them a life jacket too. You get in those turbulent waters and you get swept under.

Guy Cables

I think we're going to play well. We don't really have any names back there. We don't have a Gaines Adams or an Anthony Waters in our secondary, but we'll develop some by the first couple of games.

C.j. Gaddis

I wouldn't say we're concerned, but ... his command was off and sometimes that's a sign of weariness, ... He's in uncharted waters.

Mike Scioscia

If they could come up and tell us that it was going to be all right and put it in the paper that the water's all right. I think that's the thing that bothers me most, that people don't want to buy your property right in here because they think the water's going to be contaminated.

Vera Carson

We have reports of people in rivers, streams, bayous and the Gulf, and we encourage everyone to stay out of any bodies of water. The danger to your health and especially to children is enormous. We also urge people to not fish or engage in recreational activities in these waters.

Phil Bass

Scientists have known that hurricanes form above the world's warmest ocean surface waters. This study adds new information about hurricanes' journeys to landfall, and will help to better predict their paths and intensity changes during their final hours over open water.

Jay Fein

It feels great just to get out of the city. We were in my house for 10 or 11 days under water. The water's contaminated. It smells bad. There's no electricity -- nothing!

Fernando Martinez

Cast thy bread upon the waters; for thou shalt find it after many days.

Bible

An anchor is what keeps a ship from drifting into dangerous waters. It keeps us steady and secure during the night, and that's what Peter was to ABC News.

David Westin

The density contrast between these waters will cause the circulation.

Martin Siegert

The longer these flood waters sit there and toxic deposits build up that need to be cleaned up ... the longer the recovery line.

Laurie Johnson

Perhaps critical mass will be reached this year and next Christmas Macs will see Apple computers being the most sought-after presents. Because people tend to do things only when their peers and early adopters have tested the waters, there could be an almighty switch in the works over the next couple of years.

David Fanning

We are all very excited, (with) five Kiwis on board we have had an enjoyable race to date and we're looking forward to getting back down into some familiar waters now.

Mike Sanderson

Do people contribute to that implementation plan and do those waters become attaining, or do we just have a lot of nice studies and implementation plans gathering dust? You spend all that money and you're left 10, 15 or 20 years later with some improvement, but still an impaired water body.

Bruce Nelson

This will offer Apple a way to test the waters for non-music video content, .

Susan Kevorkian

The mayor told the petitioners we won't come back on the north side. He was trying to smooth the waters and spoke too soon, and got into a jam.

Joe Hinman

This is becoming a more urgent matter. As we deplete domestic stocks and inshore fisheries worldwide, fishing fleets are being pushed into deeper and deeper waters.

Bruce Cox

It's a nice fishery for a small stream. It maintains a self-sustaining population of rainbow and brown trout, which makes it one of the more unique waters in the state. There are very few self-sustaining coldwater fisheries in South Carolina.

Brooks Gallagher

Small businesses may not know that Web hosting providers offer search engine marketing services and Web site design solutions that help keep visitors engaged and create a pleasant shopping experience. You need a service provider who can really be a partner and help you navigate through the waters of growing your business on the Internet.

John Lally

Right now, our POS/AIDC VARs are the closest to adoption. We're telling them to come on in, the water's fine. There's no doubt RFID is going to happen, and our VAR community is standing right in the middle of this opportunity.

Greg Dixon

We're into uncharted waters here. I don't think any of us can really predict exactly when we'll come back. We are expected a lengthy amount of time before we get back to levels that would have prevailed otherwise.

Leo Mullin

Any change from the lower court opinion will certainly result in fewer waters protected. What that means is less clean water for the drinking supplies, less clean water for the environment.

Carol Browner

Quincy thought about what Freddie said and he respects Coach Hill's advice very much. He spent the weekend thinking about the pros and cons of it. He decided to basically test the waters and see what the response will be.

Jack Ringel

They're laughing and sharing one another's music and jokes, but deep down, some closely held views aren't being challenged. They're not testing the waters and interacting on things that are more complicated.

Stanford Siver

They entered Iranian territorial waters illegally and their questioning continues.

Hamid reza Asefi

The threat is very serious and will only increase as the days go by without the waters receding.

Georges Benjamin

I knew that all the way to Boulder Junction I had the power shut off. It was at least, I know to Manitowish Waters, where I work. The lines were, I believe, about 15 feet above the building at the lowest point.

Dean Fudaley

The Republicans are yet again attempting to muddy the waters to divert attention from their pattern of abusing of power.

Jennifer Crider

I think he's a great millennial figure because he represents one of the darkest extremes of Western culture, ... I think he wrote in uncharted waters. His writing is pitch black, and I don't think any writer before or since had touched bottom in the human psyche. I think Sade goes there and goes there relentlessly.

Doug Wright

What killed my brother was the bacteria that were found in the waters right there in that harbor. Regardless of what is said and done, ultimately, that's the thing that did it. Period.

Leonard Johnson

We won't know how much we've lost until flood waters subside and growers can get around their paddocks. However, there is no doubt that there will be significant damage to individual farms.

Ian Ballantyne

As of now we can salmon fish inside of three miles, but if the commission chooses to shut down state waters to conform with the federal government at its April 6-7 meeting, we could lose that, too.

Roger Thomas

Be prepared, be aware, turn around, don't drown, don't drive into those waters, don't put yourself into harms way.

Nezette Rydell

Presence of American troops in the Strait of Malacca could lead to some kind of reaction from terrorists. Once people start shooting in territorial waters, then the question of sovereignty is sharpened.

Alan Chan

It's constantly in the back of my mind. Fortunately, there are very few of us who've been in this situation, but I think the only way to go about this is with extreme caution. It's uncharted waters.

Paul Woolpert

Effectively, what will happen is all of us running on these landlocked, inland protected lakes will be held to a higher standard than all the other boats in New York state that are operating on the ocean and the canal system and everything controlled by the Coast Guard. So it doesn't really make sense that the people on the most protected waters will have the toughest standards.

Chris Weeks

This is the highest the waters have come since we bought the place. The water rose fast and went down fast. We left about 8 and were back home by 12:30 p.m.

Pete Logan

Iran is now much less worried about the US attacking them because of the mess in Iraq... They're testing the waters.

Gary Samore

There is something Canada can do because the ships would have to travel through internal Canadian waters and if the government of Canada says 'no' to the transport of those tankers through those waters, the project would not go ahead.

Greg Thompson

The waters in the industrial canal had risen very rapidly ... far above what was ever predicted or anticipated in the area.

Dan Hitchings

It went for the heart of the federal protection against diversion of Great Lakes waters. Taking that question off the table for now is a good thing.

David Holtz

Earlier lives drift by on silver soles, and the shadows of the damned descend into these sighing waters.

Georg Trakl

The water's covering their car and they can't get out, ... The only way out is to get out and swim, and they don't want to take that chance. I'm trying to do anything I can to get somebody to go over there and help her.

Paula Mitchell

We're in uncharted waters now for (Scioto girls basketball). We've really focused on trying to play possession basketball. We preach that and we're working harder in practice. We should enjoy our seed, but we don't want to lose our edge.

Todd Hardesty

Without benchmarks, authorities have little experience to inform them of the levels of contamination to expect once the waters recede, or how long it will take before the region can be inhabited again.

Laurie Johnson

It's got similar characteristics, except it's just a little lower in latitude. The issue is what happens when it gets out over the very warm waters of the central Gulf.

Frank Lepore

It rests on their shoulders – there's just no getting around it, ... We've got three national-class runners, and then those four empty spots. But [Stanford and Waters] are seniors, and I have no doubt they know how to handle it. Their work ethic's been great.

Derek Hood

All we are doing is testing the waters right now. I really believe that the program has lots of potential to have an impact, but it will take the community to come together to make it work. We all try to help in our separate ways, different church, business and community organizations, but the program will help us work together.

Dawn Knapton

Music is the expression of the movement of the waters, the play of curves described by changing breezes.

Claude Debussy

We're not surprised that he would try to muddy the waters.

Robert Schwartz

A lot of small ponds that were isolated from the Gulf are now exchanging waters with the Gulf, ... lots of sand removal leaving the marsh exposed to the Gulf.

Gregory Stone

It's more common than you'd think, unfortunately. In the waters of Hampton Roads, we probably lose six to eight people a year.

Wilford Kale

Everyone is testing the waters.

Jesse Reyes

Florida has made it so intensive that we don't really know what happens when you put a school year's worth of information into a summer -- it's really uncharted waters.

Steven Barnett

It's not really going to stir the waters up very much. In general, you're looking at a holiday consolidation period for the moment, and there doesn't seem to be a large amount of interest at the moment, what we would would call real money interest.

Brian Dolan

Eventually, all things merge into one, and a river runs through it. The river was cut by the world's great flood and runs over rocks from the basement of time. On some of the rocks are timeless raindrops. Under the rocks are the words, and some of the words are theirs. I am haunted by waters.

Norman Maclean

People who treat other people as less than human must not be surprised when the bread they have cast on the waters comes floating back to them, poisoned.

James Baldwin

Gabriel has the device of the tree that signifies the mother, ... the tree she waters every day with her tears. That's a really strong piece of imagery having the tree be the mother figure.

Paolo Montalban

We're in uncharted waters. This deflation is not cyclical. Our forecasts do not anticipate any major increase in retail price inflation ever again.

Richard Hyman

We were testing the waters. I'm satisfied with how we played, but it wasn't quite enough.

Nick Nicola

When teams look at our roster, not a lot of names jump out. Brian Waters and Alex Cole are more noticeable than Jess, and people are trying to stop them. ... but I know a lot of coaches have talked to me about (Merry) after the games.

Nick Namio

Success soon palls. The joyous time is when the breeze first strikes your sails, and the waters rustle under your bows.

Charles Buxton

Beautiful isle of the sea, Smile on the brow of the waters.

George Cooper

Enabling people to make and receive phone calls during flight demonstrated the flexibility of a high-speed connectivity system. We allowed our guests to make calls to the ground while we flew over international waters.

Chris Peterson

The Fed is justified in being aggressive. We're in uncharted waters here.

Anthony Chan

Feinstein is dipping her toe into the very ugly, muddy waters of religious bigotry. America's Founding Fathers considered religious beliefs to be an asset, even essential to public officeholders. Sadly, Sen. Feinstein apparently believes the opposite of those wise men to whom we owe gratitude for our free and strong country.

Wendy Wright

Those two guidelines really produced the road to a relatively easy North of Falcon process for inside waters of Puget Sound.

Tony Floor

It's all uncharted waters with what we're dealing with right now. If we're talking elbow surgery, shoulder surgery or something like that, we've got time frames of things that's happened. This thing here is an unknown. How many people have you heard of that's torn an artery?

Craig Dingman

Our message to Iowa cattle producers has been clear. Producers were given a five-year enforcement moratorium to fully comply with the law, and we expect them to meet the commitments they made when they entered into the agreement. When the Iowa Plan ends, EPA will enforce the Clean Water Act against feedlots that are polluting the nation's waters.

Jim Gulliford

Philippine authorities have told the ministry that no naval and coast guard vessels were in those waters when the incident occurred.

Michel Lu

When I was a young lad, I listened to Cream, Hendrix, Frank Zappa and the Allman Brothers. I thought they were gods. Hendrix still seems like one. But then I wanted to know who influenced them, so I had to go back to Howlin Wolf, Albert King, B.B. King and Muddy Waters. I also took a look at country greats like Jerry Reed and Buck Owens. My goal has always been to amalgama.

Greg Koch

So I went out and bought Hard Again by Muddy Waters. That was a big learning curve. I listened to that album again and again and again. James Cotton was the harmonica player on that album.

Sonny Terry

If we keep listing them (impaired waters) at the rate we're listing them, and the funding for doing the work doesn't change, and the amount of people out there doing the work doesn't change, we're going to have a backlog. I'm already concerned about the amount we have on the list.

Jim Zeigler

Strong biceps and triceps help me slice through the water's resistance and swim more efficiently.

Amanda Beard

To fish in troubled waters.

Mathew Henry

Parents need better and more tools to help them navigate the entertainment waters, particularly on cable and satellite TV.

Kevin Martin

We feel that the $50 million is reasonable since we haven't had a bond package since 1999. We feel it is a comfortable amount for the next five years barring any major events, like North Lake and Cypress Waters.

Phil Berkebile

Sometimes in winter the surface waters, which are less salty, were so cold that the sharks spent more time in warmer, saltier waters below, ... When I glimpsed the sharks' radio positions from these frigid seas, I often wondered what it would be like to overwinter in the wilds of an Alaska fjord chasing herring in constant darkness.

Barbara Block

We each, in our very small ways multiplied by the millions of us are contributing to the overall pollution of our waters.

Larry Altose

We encourage the EPA to develop standards to prevent not just bacterial but also viral illnesses from swimming in polluted waters. Right now we do not know if the standards meet both.

Nancy Stoner

Most small streams and creeks will be close to bank full and anybody living near small streams and creeks should be especially watchful for rising waters.

Kevin Durfee

Hopefully that won't be a problem. We're really going into uncharted waters.

Terry Mcelroy

For what is evil but good tortured by its own hunger and thirst? Verily, when good is hungry is seeks food even in dark caves, and when it thirsts it drinks even of dead waters.

Kahlil Gibran

We saw dead alligators. We saw four of them, belly up. If the alligators can't survive in their own waters, you know it was bad.

James Swanson

I couldn't believe it when I got home!My wife called me the first time and said waters coming up, then she called me again and said its coming up real fast, then she called me the last time and said get home.

Mark Gustafson

You could not step twice into the same river; for other waters are ever flowing on to you.

Heraclitus

In the waters that we've been fishing in, you have to expect that it's going to be this way. This is a very important hire for the university and I know that the athletic department wanted to make sure it got the right man.

Pat Shoulders

The speed at which existing pumps are reactivated and additional pumping capacity is added will determine how rapidly the flood waters are removed.

Laurie Johnson

I know there's going to be a strong urge by people to come in and test the waters and use the Father Curran Bridge. But if everybody does that, it's going to be a tough morning.

Wayne Frankhauser Jr

The stream of life, - which, in other men, obstructed and at last stationary as the objects that surround it, seems scarcely to deserve the name,- in them rolls ever onward its rich and life-giving waters as if unconscious of the beautiful banks it has overflowed with fertility.

Jones Very

No. 1 was the coaching staff. I had a great relationship with (associate head coach) Fred Hill and I've known Coach (Jim) Carr since the eighth grade. Plus, Gary Waters wanted me to come here from the beginning so I knew this would be a tremendous opportunity.

Courtney Nelson

Unauthorized filling of wetlands and damming of open waters can have serious environmental consequences. The Santa Clara River is one of the last free-flowing rivers in Southern California. The EPA's action today underscores our commitment to protecting this very important water resource and to work closely with the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers and other resource agencies to achieve this goal.

Alexis Strauss

The waters remain very muddy in terms of the economy, ... Friday's payrolls report made the case that the economy still has some life to it, but it's not clear yet whether the slowdown in March was temporary.

Timothy Ghriskey

The NBA and NCAA has a window of opportunity for these kids to test the waters, so he figures why not?

Byron Gibson

We envision rooms painted with murals of starry nights and beaches with calm waters where our grieving kids can help one another.
