Nigeria's escalating problems ... are boosting prices. Nigeria puts almost 2.5 million barrels of crude into the market daily -- around three percent of global oil output.

On our network, we can provide much faster data speed than you can provide on the Telstra network. The proposition we're announcing puts us right into the heartland of broadband growth and customer needs in the Australian marketplace.

One of the reasons we signed onto this is it puts all those cases behind us and lets us focus on the future.

One of the percentages in baseball, I believe, is that 86 percent of the time whoever scores first wins. It?s always an advantage to get the lead. It puts the other team on the defensive to get back in it.

One of the coolest ways to start building a character is the way he moves his mouth, what part of the mouth he puts his words into, how he expresses himself, and there's a certain flavor you get with a dialect.

I was shocked and excited at the same time. It puts playmakers in a position to make plays, and there are going to be a lot of big plays in this offense.

I wish the Legislature would give us the latitude to take these raises at a later date or take a smaller amount. It really puts the monkey on our backs. If we don't take the raise, we run the risk of not receiving another one for four or five years. But if we take them, there's always going to be this perception from the public that we're stuffing our pockets full of money when we have bills to pay.

If we really think about it, God exists for any single individual who puts his trust in Him, not for the whole of humanity, with its laws, its organizations, and its violence. Humanity is the demon which God does not succeed in destroying.

If we had a week, it wouldn't be much of an issue. Three days for an offensive lineman is going to be tough. We'll do everything we can to help him with the pain, but he has to be able to push off and deliver a blow. For a guy his size, that puts a lot of stress on his leg.

If we have significant refinery capacity problems due to Katrina, that certainly puts more upward pressure on gas prices, which in turn I think has to affect restaurant demand.

If we don't clean up our corrupt system of financing political campaigns, the people's agenda won't get done, ... Our loophole-ridden campaign finance system puts the special interests at the table, while locking moms, dads and kids out of the room.

If they lose their legal basis for owning a .cn domain, google.cn would cease to exist, or if it continued to exist, it would be illegal, and doing anything blatantly illegal in China puts their employees at serious risk.

If they (staff) don't get good preparation, the kids and the teachers suffer. No one puts as much time, effort and money into it (training) as we do.

If this affair puts an end to the nonsense of the parliament meeting, at great expense, in two different countries, then so much the better.

I do a lot of programs on crime prevention, and when a community puts its foot down that it will not tolerate crime, it can have a bigger impact than law enforcement will ever have.

I don't know that a win here puts us in, but a loss here hurts us quite a bit. Last year, that was one that we did point to and say maybe this kept us out.

IDC saw worldwide unit growth in 3Q of roughly 18.3 percent, while Dataquest saw worldwide unit growth around 15.2 percent. Averaging the two together puts it in the mid-to-high 16 percent range, which is roughly in line with our forecast 17 percent for 3Q.

I couldn't put in first serves and was double faulting. He puts a lot pressure on anyone's service games. He has a good compact return.

I am definitely proud of that 1994 team. We still have five guys from the offense who are still playing in this league. He (Brady) just keeps getting bigger and better ever year and that is a credit to Kyle and the hard work he puts in.

I am just happy to get my feet wet. I just need some reps to get better and Coach Fisher has my back 100 percent. I am just letting one game come at a time. I know when he puts me back there to return, I'll be ready.

I am always happy to be practicing. Period, ... I enjoy just playing my horn and going into the type of meditation that playing involves. It puts me mentally in a place that is always transcendent and above real life. I love playing just for myself. It's a great experience.

I believe the more we do what God wants us to do as a church, the more He puts his stamp of approval on you. All we know is what we feel like we're supposed to do. This works for us, and we ain't gonna quit.

I believe we need a new kind of leadership, a leadership that puts the people front and center, not the president.

I am sure the players that were part of that streak are going to be constantly reminded of it. It also puts them in a position where they want to get another streak started and we are first up so we have to do our part to make sure that does not happen.

I am so proud of this team and how hard everyone worked to get this result. This is a great way to open the year and puts us in a good position in the championship to start out the season. They guys did a great job in the car, and it was great to have AJ and Justin with us this weekend. Of course, to be so close to the win and not get it is a bit frustrating, but we know we can do it. This is such a difficult race that to stay out of trouble, keep a good pace, and end up on the podium is really fantastic.

I anticipate a hard game. We know what Radford does. Radford knows what we do. The team that rebounds is going to be the team that puts itself in a great position to win. And in tournament play, you've got to have players step up and make shots. If you don't have players make shots, it's hard to win in tournament play.

Ian is struggling with it at the moment, just when he puts in a good session it knocks him around again, it is very frustrating but at the moment we just want to get him as healthy as possible by Monday.

Certainly, I don't think it puts us at a (recruiting) disadvantage.

Cat (Lewis) gets a lot of pressure every game. They know she's a freshman, but she doesn't play like one. She puts her heart out there. Cat is a tough kid, knows the game, and runs our offense.

But this latest episode not only proves his proximity to the (Nehru-Gandhi) family but also puts a question mark on his impartiality.

But that kind of went along with the imagery, for me, of the bird, the flightiness, the lightness, the light-footedness. So we literally timed out that scene in one shot to be the same exact timing as what Hitchcock and Janet Leigh had originally done, down to where she puts the money.

Buddy puts his nose to the ground and gets things done. He came up the hard way, and nobody gave anything to him. I have lots of respect for him for that.

Burgos has done pretty good, but this has our bullpen out of synch -- it puts everybody in different roles, whatever those are.

Bu'' is a word that cools many a warm impulse, stifles many a kindly thought, puts a dead stop to many a brotherly deed. No one would ever love his neighbor as himself if he listened to all the ''Buts'' that could be said.

Based upon how we've seen retail stocks perform, any continued low (consumer confidence) number puts a crimp in the Christmas spending story.

Basketball is not life, it's a job. It puts everything in perspective when you see something like that.

Because they'll be able to lock up the volume discounts, they can undercut everyone's prices over the long haul. It puts price ahead of profit.

I'm at a point in my career when my age and nearly 25 years of service, the responsibility of the Ford name, and my father's legacy in Southeast Michigan community affairs, puts me at a crossroads.

I'm always buying her jewelry. And I have a couple of her stained-glass panels, too, some of her early pieces. They're just so unique, the way she puts them together with the natural stones, the agates, the shells, the beads. Her work is just beautiful.

I had Jeff Daniels wear my Dad's clothes. It wasn't because I wanted to recreate my Dad in any way, it's because by having those things there it warms me to the characters and the story, it puts me in it more, ... The Life Aquatic with Steve Zissou.

I had a tough match in the first round and sometimes that puts you in good stead for the tournament.

I have a bigger mouth than a lot of these youngsters right now, so I think that puts me at a distinct advantage. The more gum you get in your mouth the better you will be.

I hate it for the fans and anyone else watching and listening to think that this stuff puts a black cloud over (the) No. 48 team at times.

I feel very good about where we are and so does the rest of the management. We have worked hard through a tough period of transition during these past two fiscal years, while our focus on fundamentals, serving customers and delivering value through integration puts us in great shape this fiscal year and for the future.

I feel they (the Swiss) did not expect what they have seen and it puts a bit of pressure on Wawrinka to perform first.

If I'm watching a football game, he usually puts on his headset and goes to sleep. For some reason, he doesn't like watching football.

I firmly believe God puts different people in different parts of history so great things can happen, ... I think Rosa Parks is one of those people.

I feel real good about being 6-1. We're in the driver's seat and if we take care of ourselves it puts the pressure on the rest of the league.

I feel like it puts pressure on the other teams. They feel like they have to have a perfect shot to beat him, which they do.

I can't even touch another conductor's baton. The center of gravity, the feel of the handle, puts me totally off.

I can't imagine him not coaching. I just can't imagine it. It really puts everything in perspective for me. I never saw that day coming.

Getting these three wins puts a staple on the fact that we're a different team. But these were three wins we were supposed to have, and the Big Ten is a whole different season in itself. We're starting over now.

Getting these three wins puts a staple on the fact that this is a different team this year.

Fouling him and putting him on the line makes him theoretically shoot less field goals and puts him on the line, but it also puts their team in the penalty earlier every quarter. And then other guys are going to the line. ... So if we're just fouling Shaq sort of indiscriminately, it can be a long night.

For you to instill that in your players now puts them in a better position to succeed later. It's easy to bunt if you've practiced it, but you can't ask him to bunt in the (playoffs) if he's never done it.

For some reason, she finds herself in the right spot, and when she does, she puts the ball in the back of the net.

From a strategic standpoint it makes sense to do that in some fashion because it's such a big contract. It puts the loser at a big risk.

From a multibillion-dollar tourism perspective here in the city, this is one of the most powerful national signals that we can have, because it is the first major sporting commitment since Katrina. It is an event that attracts thousands of people, it has exposure all over the world, and it puts a highlight that weekend on New Orleans as a destination.

From his unapologetic attitude to his secret, backroom dealings, Dick Cheney doesn't realize that Americans expect responsible and effective government that puts the interests of the people first.

Fundamentally, the economy has not slowed as investors had hoped or the Fed requires. It puts a tightening in August back on the table.

Funny is as funny does, and funny puts on a walrus mask and slowly gyrates in a mall food court. I laugh at absurdity hardest, then stories, then observations, then bearded men on roller skates.

I don't think anyone in this locker room solely puts the blame on Kyle Orton. As a defense, we didn't make any plays. I gave up 14 points. I think the blame is on ourselves, the team, not just one particular person.

I don't remember any kind of bet. Jim and I play together over the summer and we're pretty good friends. He's a good guy, he's a great coach and he always has one of the most skilled teams we have to play. He fields one of the best passing teams in the area. He always puts out a good product. In fact, now that you mention it, I think he might owe me a dinner.

I don't think he undermines his effectiveness but I think he puts him under a lot of pressure when it comes to decision making and maybe he doubts his own decisions sometimes because Shane is offering so much advice all the time. It's hard to sift through what is good and what is not good, at times.

If a person is out here and they want to get into the supplier business, this puts them in close proximity to a major automotive plant.

If a party puts $4 million into a House race, it's really releasing a lot of guns. It shows the importance of the race.

If an operator puts one in every central office to manage their fibers, then you're talking about a big market: 20,000 COs in the U.S..

If an official puts his whistle away, they should put the official away for the rest of the playoffs. How long you work in the playoffs is discretionary, and that depends on how well you're working. And if a guy decides he's putting the whistle away, then he's done.

If a company puts in a solution in the market that makes other people fail, then we all fail as a community. This will be a model for enterprise services and how new ideas are proposed, developed and offered into in the market. It's an IP model to protect what you want to protect and one to protect everyone in the community, so you can't come after someone just because you gave them an idea for an enterprise service interface.

If all I do is break even for three years, is it a good deal? The answer is yes. It puts us on a different growth (in expenses) curve. And it's a good deal for the employees, too, because they came out ahead with the board contributions.

If an appraisal is done, it basically describes that item and puts a current value on it. If it can be replaced, it will be replaced. If not, the claims department can look at the appraisal.

I don't think we've seen a catastrophic event like this where local governments have lost their entire tax base, ... Each day that goes by puts more governments in jeopardy.

I don't think we should get penalized for losing an overtime game to (the conference champions). I think that game puts in perspective how far this team has come this season.

I don't think you automatically become an enlightened person because you are a daddy. But they will change you, of course - their understanding of you puts you in a different place.

I don't send him, he puts himself there, ... He's got a natural cruising speed. I could realistically be in front of the rabbit.

I enjoyed it. I kind of like the responsibility he puts on me.

I don't think it's effort. I think everybody out there is trying to do the right things. I think everybody out there puts a lot of pressure on themselves to defend.

I don't think one win or one loss puts you in or takes you out. I really don't believe it works that way. I think the thing that is helpful for us and healthy for us is to focus on what's in front of us. If we can somehow put together a terrific effort and win that first game, then I can say it doesn't hurt our chances for making the NCAA tournament field.

For there to be communication within a couple, it is enough for there to be only one person who communicates or who really wants to communicate. Even though a couple consists of two people, if one of the people in a couple puts all their effort into moving a couple along they will move along.

Given what illegal immigration costs each year, given that 30 percent of inmates in our federal prisons are illegal aliens and given the strain illegal immigration puts on our health care, it's a small price to pay.

If we see strong average hourly earnings, that would be bad for stocks and bonds because it puts the inflation bogey-man on the front burner.

If the county puts the half-cent tax out and has given private assurances to the Leadership Group and Mayor Gonzales that they are not divulging to voters, then it's dishonest.

If the Fed continues to raise interest rates, it puts a damper on the spirits of voters and consumers and that is bad news for Al Gore.

If someone puts up $100 million on a movie, they're gonna be concerned about whether they'll get it back. So they're not gonna make a movie about three girls, you know?

I always knew that he would still have defensive qualities. They don't go away. He's not fast but he was never that fast. He reads things. He puts attackers on his terms. He knows how to slow guys down. For me, it was just a matter of seeing one, if he was healthy and two, if he was just really strong in terms of his motivation. I think he's shown both.

He won't be changed, the way he approaches the game and his teammates. He has too much character to let long-term security affect the way he goes about his business. He puts the price of winning above the price of his own bank account.

He who puts up with insult invites injury

He who puts a friend to public shame is as guilty as a murderer

He has a great work ethic. He takes people down in a hurry. He puts people on their back and goes after the pin.

He hasn't changed from the time he was an offensive line coach to the time he's a head coach. His demeanor is still the same way ... And when he talks to the media, he's still the same way. He doesn't change it up. He doesn't necessarily have a game-day face that he puts on here for the cameras and then goes in and does something different.

He has been fairly consistent on the issue, and it's one that puts him in exactly the same place as the Democrats and independents he's trying to reach out to this year. If I were him, I would be talking a lot about this.

He has a way of saying things, a way of putting things, that takes complex legal concepts and puts them in common-sense terms that can gather consensus and persuade.

He has done a tremendous job for the people of this county. I am not sure if everyone realizes the amount of time, effort and work he puts into his job. I do not know how he finds the time to do everything he does. We are lucky to have him.

He is a man significantly involved in the community. He is constantly going above and beyond, not just by giving money, but by giving of himself. He puts works behind his words.

He is leading by his example of work and the effort he puts in. He's raised the level of expectations for how judges work.

He has such a great mindset and he puts it out to everybody, especially when you're a younger guy and with a lot of new people, ... Just the confidence he has in everybody, I think he shows that very consistently.

He is a good teammate because he could have cried about not starting. But he just does his job whatever role coach (Byron Scott) puts him in.

He is actually doing the right thing for himself because he is preserving himself in power, and he puts himself in a position where he can bail out his cronies who are in financial difficulties, including his son and so on,

He had a few more three-ball counts -- too many -- than I'd like to see. That puts him in a vulnerable position.

He got a corporation mind. He don't believe in nature; he puts his trust and distrust in man.
