Francesca Dominici

When we analyzed the data for heart failure, we observed a 1.28 percent increase in admissions for each 10 microgram per cubic meter increase in fine particle pollution.

Eduardo Paes

Reporters waited at his locker for monosyllabic bons mots. Boys clustered by the players' gate, hoping to touch him.

Mike Cunningham

Metropolis is a first-of-its-kind opportunity in Plainfield and we are pleased to be a part of it. Hendricks County doesn't have anything else like it. The size and extent of the development here will blow people away.

We wrote a little manifesto with just some ideas on how this digital revolution could transform music-making itself, and that is the part that people have generally ignored so far. They've been totally preoccupied with the business side of it, but not so much with how the new formats - or the freedom of formats - could change the nature of what exactly is created.

John Audubon

What! Have I come here to mimic nature in her grandest enterprise - to add my caricature of one of the wonders of the world to those which I see here? No - I give up the idea as a vain attempt.

Tom Ridge

We got very specific information regarding when and what flights. It didn't quite have the specificity with regard to the nature of the attack, but there was certainly enough credibility associated with the when and the where, the date and the flight

John Whittier

Unknown to her the rigid rule, the dull restraint, the chiding frown, the weary torture of the school, the taming of wild nature down.

Nigel Harris

Universities by their very nature encourage debate, question and challenge of conventional wisdom and existing theories. We are places where knowledge is discovered. We advance existing precepts and understandings by which society currently runs. And in that context, academic staff will time to time have views that are different from the government's.

Very few people ever manage what nature manages without effort and mostly without fail. We don't know who we are or how to function, much less how to bloom. Blind nature. Homo Sapiens. Who's kidding whom?

Jerry Angelo

We've always had good working relationship when I was in Tampa and since we've been here I find him to be a very, very good agent and (have) no problems with him at all.

Mike Vrabel

When we went to the 4-3, I thought we gave them some problems. We're going to make changes every week on the fly. We've got a lot of different ways of being aggressive.

What we're saying today is that you're either part of the solution or you're part of the problem

Audre Lorde

The learning process is something you can incite, literally incite, like a riot.

Tom Taylor

Potter's House made a conscious decision to stay, even after the riots and rise in crime,

Bob Cousy

There were riots in just about every game we played with Syracuse.

Alex Steffen

We're not going to persuade people in the developing world to go without, but neither can we afford a planet on which everyone lives like an American.

Charles Meeker

We're saying, 'Don't create a suburban office park just a mile away,'

Erik Hassle

Don Logan

We have no suburbs - we're an island.

I grew up in Westlake Villiage, a suburb of L.A. There was a guy there who was a fighter and was like, 'I'll teach you to box.' I started a little bit of boxing, then it crossed over into jiu-jitsu. I was into it for a little while, but then I started doing basketball, baseball, team sports.

James Balog

I grew up in suburban New Jersey in a transitional area that was surrounded by farmland that wasn't being cultivated.

Matt Passmore

Bill Richardson

What we're saying is that what the Internet needs to do, particularly for them, is to take the power of the Internet, much like you put a magnifying glass in front of the sun, and give them the resources to drive traffic into their stores.

Tyri Squyres

When we are talking about Stewart in Orlando, it doesn't mean much to people there. A good portion of our traffic is coming from there and the Hudson Valley definitely hits home.

D. James

When we did that environmental assessment, there was no train traffic and that has changed.

Denise Garcia

We believe this position will ultimately bode well with its users and will not have a significant impact on current traffic and consequent advertising revenues. We recommend investors take advantage of any declines in the stock price today as an opportunity to buy.

We're going to keep that light active until Monday after rush hour. Just because we don't have enough time to let traffic completely adjust.

Lorraine Bracco

I'd be like, 'You're a young, vibrant woman. Where are you?' I realized that I had been living in denial.

Curt Hecker

We appreciate the concerns for adequate downtown parking. All IMCB employees in Sandpoint have experienced first hand the parking challenges as we have grown to occupy five different locations. Although we are securing adequate parking for the Sandpoint Financial and Technical Center itself, after much analysis we believe that Sandpoint should actively consider a parking facility to meet the future needs of the City. Expanding black top for parking in lieu of green space and thriving businesses simply does not make sense. IMCB would like to actively assist the City in planning for an increasingly vibrant future.

Gary Bauer

We are looking forward to a vibrant competition among politicians for these voters. No one owns them.

Joseph B. Wirthlin

The Lord did not people the earth with a vibrant orchestra of personalities only to value the piccolos of the world. Every instrument is precious and adds to the complex beauty of the symphony.
