Poor air quality, which can be influenced by a variety of fumes, chemicals and allergens, is arguably the leading cause of triggers for most asthmatics in urban areas.

A hunk of beef raised on Scottish moorland has a very different ecological footprint from one created in an intensive feedlot using concentrated cereal feed, and a wild venison or rabbit casserole is arguably greener than a vegetable curry.

He's been so successful, arguably the best quarterback ever to play the game. If you were trying to follow his footsteps, it would be incredibly difficult. I'd go crazy if I woke up every day and tried to compare myself to Peyton Manning.

In some of the great cities of Europe - Paris, Vienna, Prague, and Brussels - tourists bored with life above ground can descend below. All these cities have sewer museums and tours, and all expose their underbelly willingly to the curious. But not London, arguably the home of the most splendid sewer network in Europe.

Often, economists spend their energies squabbling with one another, but arguably the more important contrast is between our broadly liberal economic worldview and the various alternatives - common around the globe - that postulate natural hierarchies of religion, ethnicity, caste and gender, often enforced by law and strict custom.

Executive power in any nation arguably has more in common with executive power in another country than with the citizens it should serve.

The Obama years will be remembered as a cultural - and legal - tipping point for equality for all people who do not identify as strictly heterosexual, arguably the civil rights movement of our times.

I think Philly is arguably the best sports town - football town - in America.

I know we should aspire to be higher philosophical beings, contemplating the universe and becoming more refined humans, but if all we did was think, then arguably we'd never have invented the wheel.

Leaders cannot work in a vacuum. They may take on larger, seemingly more important roles in an organization, but this does not exclude them from asking for and using feedback. In fact, a leader arguably needs feedback more so than anyone else. It's what helps a leader respond appropriately to events in pursuit of successful outcomes.

New York has arguably become the quintessential 1 percent city, a city that has been so given over to the rich that you now have to be rich to live here. Or not live here: New York's also a preferred destination for foreign money spent on vast, lifeless apartments in the sky that are occupied a couple of weeks a year at most.

Schubert had arguably the same melodic gift as Mozart, but even less support. He didn't have the early exposure, never got to travel anywhere, and yet generated and amassed a body of work that grew and developed and is very profound.

Western democracies exalt the ideal of social equality, but our economic system arguably emerged from 16th-century Calvinism, a religion whose members believed that God showed favor by bestowing wealth and other forms of success on what they called 'the chosen.'

In 2001, President George W. Bush was condemned for politicizing science with his decision to limit federal funding for stem-cell research; in 2009 President Obama was praised for reversing it, even though his decision was arguably just as political.

What the string theorists do is arguably physics. It deals with the physical world. They're attempting to make a consistent theory that explains the interactions we see among particles and gravity as well. That's certainly physics, but it's a kind of physics that is not yet testable.

Lester has arguably been our most consistent player since he's been here. And it's obvious when we haven't had him we haven't been the same team. That's not an excuse. That's an explanation. And it's an accurate one in our minds.

She's arguably the best on-track package there is in racing.

She's really hard to guard. She's arguably the best player in the SEC because of her versatility, her physical strength and her ability to step out and shoot the basketball.

She is arguably the most influential woman in the United States, ... Closed Chamber: An Inside Account of the Supreme Court.

Mike is probably one of the nation's elite running backs, and arguably the top running back in the state of Texas. One of the things that sticks out to me is that he's a pretty complete back coming out of high school.

One of Midway's core in-game advertising strategies is to infuse our games with cultural context through the integration of static in-game product placements. We believe static promotions in conjunction with dynamic advertising will represent an attractive revenue opportunity for Midway. Sarah is arguably one of our industry's most experienced professionals in this emerging field, and we anticipate that she will manage the process for static ads as well as dynamic in-game ads with Double Fusion in an effort to maximize incremental revenue from our top titles.

Obviously we look forward to the game on Saturday for a couple of reasons. Mexico is certainly and arguably our biggest rival in CONCACAF and that always makes for a good game. More importantly, any kind of positive result for the U.S. qualifies us for the next World Cup and that's been our objective since June of 2004.

Obviously we look forward to the game for a couple of reasons. Mexico is certainly and arguably our biggest rival in CONCACAF and that always makes for a good game. More importantly, any kind of positive result for the U.S. qualifies us for the next World Cup and that's been our objective since June of 2004. We obviously look forward to the game. We love playing in Columbus. We anticipate a great crowd, and one that's very supportive of the U.S. team. I'm confident we're going to field a strong team and play well.

No one even arguably associated with the past wrongdoing continues to work at the company.

I don't get his move. I don't understand the motive for that. I think he's made a mistake. I think he needed some ego restoration, probably. I'll tell you, he came into arguably the toughest conference in college football and I'll tell you, it's not going to be the same. I know the South Carolina fans are excited, but. . .

I don't know where he's at, but he's arguably one of the world's best ever and to not have him available must be a blow.

I don't believe any of our voters have been impressed with any of St. John Fisher's wins. When Roberts Wesleyan is arguably the team's best victory, that doesn't speak well to most voters.

But when it's Glenn McGrath, arguably the best fast bowler in the world, you want to give him every chance to play and if that means it's a last-minute decision then it's a last-minute decision.

If China is happy to see local interest rates rise, then it's happy to see some tightening monetary conditions in general and therefore could arguably be more receptive of yuan reform.

Getting Justin back is a big, big plus, ... He is arguably one of our better players. I was really impressed with the way he played, having not played in a while.

Fragmentation means more and more shows get lower and lower ratings. Events like the Super Bowl are arguably the only places advertisers can reach everyone in the U.S. at one time.

He's your leader, he's arguably your best player. We got a young team. They look up to somebody like him. If he doesn't show positive vibes it's not going to help them. He always tells me, 'No coach, I'm involved, I'm not getting down.' I said, 'Sometimes you have to show them that.' Again, that's not his nature, but it would be helpful.

.He is arguably one of the leading authors, one of the most important advocates, the leading builder of consensus, the leading voice of reasoning and good sense that has enabled the birth of the Caribbean Single Market and the Caribbean Court of Justice.

He has played all the great roles, so he's had many opportunities here, and he is arguably the greatest classical actor in the English speaking world.

What I see, he arguably is the best of all time because he can do everything. When he wants to play, he's just unbeatable.

We've entered a new age where video games are arguably more powerful than the radio when it comes to exposing audiences to music.

He's a good hitter, and he's having a tremendous September. He could arguably be the Rookie of the Year, and he should be here for a long time. He's starting to fit in; he's very talented -- and clutch.

Golf is the only sport where watching the game is arguably as grueling physically as playing it.

He's arguably the best wrestler in the history of our program. He's a great wrestler. Some wrestlers have a strong work ethic and not a lot of talent and some have a lot of talent and don't work very hard. Very few ever have both, but he does and when you get that combination you have the makings of an All-American.

He's arguably the best utility player in the game, and that's where he's been selected for New South Wales and selected for Australia.

He's arguably the best there is. Against him, you've got to scratch and claw the best you can.

He's arguably the best point guard in the league. You have to be aware of him every minute he's on the floor. He can rip off three threes in a row, then miss six, and then hit two in a row to demoralize you.

He's arguably going to be one of the most talented players in the league. He's like a wild card. He's had great playoff success and he can be a huge piece of the puzzle coming down the stretch. We need him to come in here and provide us with that extra offensive spark.

Under his proposal, arguably a $51 birthday gift to my wife would expose me to criminal liability.

Hundreds of reporters, in all media, did heroic work on the Gulf Coast in the deadly storm's aftermath. None arguably was as financially and symbolically important to his company as the job turned in by Williams. It could solidify his spot as network news' top anchor.

He certainly didn't look out of place at linebacker. In fact, I thought he was arguably the best linebacker out there. Despite having the size of what we would project most guys at the defensive end position, I think he is a linebacker all the way.

I think it's highly significant that he is showing here. Although it sounds unpatriotic to say this, when a European big name appears here, and he is arguably the greatest designer of our time, it makes us seem like we are big league players and not some small colony. Karl Lagerfeld will be the hottest ticket in town.

I think we'll get a lot out of playing Notre Dame. They have arguably the best doubles line up in the country and are very deep in singles. This is an opportunity to measure the progress we have made in the week and half since our last match. Our goal is to compete collectively from start to finish and gain as much confidence as we can with each match. We need every one to step up and embrace the challenge.

I was always proud on 'Party of Five'. We never had the biggest audience, but we had arguably the most loyal.

It is arguably the most influential joining of cultures ever.

I think there are many qualities. One, he's arguably the best defensive second baseman in the game. Two, he brings a great deal of energy to the field. And three, he's also a pretty good offensive player for the position.

Terrorists have failed in what is arguably al Qaida's most important objective - to trigger revolutions.

Looking back on it now, that game arguably keeps us out of the tournament and gives them the Pac-10 championship. You're not going to find many rivalry games that can have that weight. Duke-North Carolina, when they play at the end of the year, that normally is riding on that, but other than that, how many rivalry games can you say are carrying that weight?

Marian is arguably one of the top players in the world and is always a scoring threat. He consistently places among the league leaders in all offensive categories and holds several of Ottawa's team records. He also competes hard on every shift and sets the tone for his teammates. We believe he is the type of exciting player you will want to come out to Philips Arena and watch.

Mason approached Craig and I, because Waterford was a useful starting point to get a league created since we had arguably the most established lacrosse program in the state at that time. Craig and I wanted to help out, so we started helping with clinics and things like that to get the game some exposure.

Marx and Engels are arguably history's most famous couple. Such was the closeness of their collaboration that it is not always easy to recall which works bore both names, which just that of Marx, and which just Engels.

Like the city of Venice, everything has been said about August Wilson, but what demands repetition is that he's arguably the finest playwright of the second half of the last century. And that with Lorraine Hansberry, he is responsible for making the real black experience part of the American consciousness.

It feels to me like arguably our best move of the year.

It definitely had that playoff atmosphere. It was two guys, going head-to-head, that are arguably our No. 1?s right now.

It is easy to second-guess me, but it was my call. I'd like someone to give me a guarantee that David Ortiz wouldn't have done that to Nate Robertson. We're talking about someone who is arguably one of the best players in baseball.

Many Americans did not watch the speech. Those who did were 2-to-1 Republican, so most were arguably already in the president's camp.

Management makes a very impressive presentation of taking this company and building what is arguably the last pure-play franchise in the filmed entertainment business. Certainly the chairman of the firm has a history of turning companies around, and there's no reason to think he won't do that here too.

That weekend is a tremendous opportunity for us. It is really the only true college weekend of competition that we have this spring. We play two very good teams in UAB and the traditional powerhouse of North Carolina. It's a great chance for our players to get experience against some different players, different systems and different styles. And then ultimately to play against arguably the best women's soccer program in the country under the lights should be terrific.

That's what arguably the best defense in the game and a deep bullpen will do for you, you can win games like that.

We received more state appropriations than the previous biennium. But with growth and inflation, we arguably didn't gain funding. That left us with a seriously deteriorated student/faculty ratio.

You always get a little extra time once you get the puck. There's a reason why Forsberg is arguably the best player in the world. He draws a lot of attention.

When you're going against arguably the best defensive lineman in the game, you're going to lose some sleep at night, especially when you're feeling that he's in a zone. It's human nature. If you see me ball up my fist to hit you, you're going to move out the way, right? Just imagine that. When you start taking those punches, sooner or later you're going to jerk back.

We have thousands of kids, Hispanic kids, who are at the doorstop of arguably the most extraordinary mountain recreation terrain in the United States and never participate.

Today, they're arguably the strongest company around in terms of their technology ... their customer base and their brand name.

Unfortunately, the most aggressive and arguably most dangerous guys are still on the loose. They still present a significant danger.

We are deeply saddened by Bill's passing. He was arguably the most recognizable voice in the history of Bay Area broadcasting.

When I was a kid, I wanted to emulate Mel Blanc, who is arguably one of the most legendary voiceover recording artists of our time. I used to watch all the cartoons where he would voice Daffy, Elmer Fudd and Porky the Pig. I knew one day I wanted to do that.

We're coming in with a team that can arguably match up with any team in the country. Hopefully, we solved some of the size and physical problems we had last year. We, at times, can be very, very big.

Tracy's arguably one of the best perimeter players in the game right now. As long as he's on the floor, he's a threat. He understands how to create space. You just have to hope to get a hand in his face and miss. And tonight, he hit some tough shots.

Winning it is great. We shared it with a pretty good team last year (Michigan State) and we had to go 14-2 to do that. We beat some really good teams this year, including arguably four of the best down the stretch.

This tacky trade would arguably be less damaging to the public good were it not for the fact that a peerage comes with substantial political influence.

We see tremendous market acceptance when Microsoft's next big enterprise software product comes out. And when you look at the sheer numbers, it's arguably as big a market as the original Windows market,

Turner is arguably the best tight end in the state of Missouri. But, not only does he do a fantastic job offensively, at defensive end he's very difficult to run the football on -- or throw.

Tuesday night is arguably the most competitive night on television and on the schedule. And Tuesday at 9 o'clock (EST), if you've noticed, is a very, very difficult time slot under the best of circumstances.

While the SEC is arguably the strongest conference in the country in general, it is not so this year. With all due respect to the SEC, this year it ranks fifth among the conferences, far behind the Big 12 and Pac-10.

We got a few runs off Colon, who arguably right now is the leading candidate for the Cy Young Award. That's very pleasing. The matchup would say that the Angels were favored big-time. But that's why you play.

You hear an awful lot of talk recently about each party trying to play to its base. We're not just the strongest Democratic region in the state, we're arguably the strongest Democratic region in the nation.

What this storm has done has wrecked the lives and the economy of what could arguably be one of the poorest areas of America with one of the blackest populations. As I look around, whether it's Iowa or Arizona, at the far-flung places to which people are being sent, for the short term at least, I think it's going to be a national lesson in diversity.

We are going to challenge the arbitrary, capricious and arguably unlawful assessment of these taxes with every fiber of our being. We are bewildered and frustrated.

Better sooner than later because sometimes milestones, they seem tougher and tougher to get once you start talking about them. I'm happy that we came out and played arguably our best game of the year and a lot of credit to these guys.

Belinda Clark is arguably the best female cricketer to play for Australia,

Arguably they're trying to maintain a level of uncertainty ... that perhaps they're concerned about financial flows, hot money flows, moving into the currency market and carrying the Canadian dollar higher.
