If you direct your attention to the position of a bird with regard to the wave surface, it will speedily be noticed to be nearly always on the rising side or face of the wave and moving apparently at right angles to the wave's course, but really diagonal to it.

As with instant replay, NFL Films' use of slow motion, camera angles and the narration of Facenda was not just a technical breakthrough but a conceptual breakthrough.

I'm probably borderline OCD. I insist on having all objects at right angles to each other. So a fork has to be at a right angle to the knife on the table. The salt and pepper pots have to be placed close together. Only recently have I started to notice it's a weird way to behave.

Pictures are much harder to do than the theater... You're at the mercy of the camera angles and the piecemeal technique.

I jumped off a cliff backwards for 'I Am Number Four,' which was pretty cool. I'd never done that before. It took seven takes from different angles and luckily there were no injuries. I came close, though. My head nearly hit the rock at one point.

We would get 20 different angles and then cut them all together. That's what I called it at the time - the 'cubistic' treatment of shooting football. It was the same thing Picasso did except we did it with a football play. It's taking a single image and looking at it from multiple perspectives.

I have been in 'Star Wars' since I was 20. And they're not just doing some goofy sequel, like, to service the hunger of it. It actually has been thought out and it has integrity and they took it seriously, which they didn't have to do, you know? It's hard to do, given the appetite and the angles from which everybody's coming at it.

Imaginary time is a new dimension, at right angles to ordinary, real time.

Let's see how he looks when he comes back over here. This is a different game over here. Angles are different and there's a tremendous amount of activity around the goal here; a lot more than there is in the Olympics.

She was playing the angles really well. I felt that I was in control of a lot of points and she would come back with the better shot.

She's our best 3-point shooter and a very smart player and understands things very well. She anticipates well and understands the angles of the game.

Mike used a lot of his boxing skills and angles to get away from him. He?d be hitting him with punches as the guy came charging forward. It was like a matador with a bull, and he was hitting him with some hooks.

Moose is going to have a big year. He has many arm angles and he knows how to spot his pitches. He just knows what he's doing out there.

I wouldn't want to want to face him as a right-handed hitter. He comes at you at too many angles and at too many speeds.

I don't know why we do that. That's one of the things we talk about before (every game). Our goal is to keep (opponents) at 10 free throw attempts or less, and we gave them 25 tonight. We've just got to move our feet, we've got got to stop reaching with our hands and we've got to take better angles - things that at this time of year you hope to be fine-tuning rather than trying to go back and build a foundation.

For the second year running, we're giving New Year's revelers around the world a unique view of Times Square. Last year's viewers spent 45 minutes on average watching the celebration on MSN Video and this year we are making it even more interactive by giving consumers the opportunity to choose the camera angles and the events to focus on, instantly shaping their New Year's Eve experience.

He may not have been in the blue (paint) when the shots finally came, but there were moments when he was in the blue paint. And as a goaltender, there's no way that you're going to be able to come out and cut down angles and take away a portion of the net if you're not able to extend yourself.

What makes the project unique is that the replay artists have the ability to do this after the play. Camera angles do not have to be chosen in advance. All camera angles are saved and can be viewed from up to 72 synchronized views when the action is complete. Nothing is missed.

We took better angles and we weren't fouling so much in the open court. We read and reacted very well tonight.

When I am performing live, I walk into a room, and I just try to get a feel for the vibe, and I am coming from different angles musically. I might come with a new song, I might come with some hip-hop, with some R&B. Once I find my way, then I am hitting you, and hitting you all night.

When he's got his legs, what he can do, he can defend in the post with his feet. He can use his quickness and play different angles in the post and not have to rely on totally fronting and totally just playing behind. He gives you an added dimension defensively to do some things.

We've got to get to Atlanta and get healthy before (tonight) because we've got a lot of guys banged up. We couldn't do much with Tony Parker. We took away his angles to run, but he still managed to get to the basket.

He's a guy that understands how to play the golf course. Experience helps a lot on this golf course -- where to miss it, how to play it, the angles you need to have.

He's always given me trouble. Mike has so many arm angles and he knows how to spot his pitches. He can set you up with that change-up and then throw a fastball right by you.

He's a very heady player. He knows the game very well. He's not overly quick, but he knows how to take the proper angles to make up for it. He makes good decisions with his passing and he can join the rush and he's also the quarterback of our power play. He's had a good year.

His serve is probably the biggest weapon in tennis, ... You can't teach being 6-foot-10. It's like he's serving out of a tree. Just the angles that he's able to create, he makes you hit his serves over your head where you're normally hitting them from around your hip.

We must consider (the issue) from various angles such as the problems of safety, noise, air traffic routes, environment and whether it can be relocated quickly.

He covers a lot of net, but he's a lot quicker than I remember him to be. You can always tell when you have an established goalie. His angles are good and there's very little net to shoot at.

He knows angles to the basket. He can take a bump and finish. If you can't push him off the block, he's dangerous.

I thought they took some funny-angle shots in the beginning, trying to catch me. But the rebounds just bounced out from those angles and you're going to give up some rebounds, but our defense was right there to clear them away.

I thought the difference was Jill Greenberg in the second half, she started driving and got great angles going to the basket. And Cara Sweeney was immense.

I was kind of ready for how she plays. I could pick up a few things about her game and just had to take more advantage of the chances that I had, but I got tired and made some unforced errors. I tried not to give her too many angles but she can get to every ball with her long arms and legs. I tried to hit to her body and keep it deep.

We played very, very well yesterday. We weren't playing at our peak level this morning. I had a little trouble siding out.

We've managed to keep a spirit of fun, I guess, of urban satire and finding new and odd interesting angles to the ways of life to put on the stage.

Tyler is an awesome player and the other guys really compliment what he does. It seemed like any time we made a little run it was different players coming up with big shots. They just kept coming at us from a lot of different angles and did a good job getting us back on our heels.

We did not want them to get inside the paint because they're the type of team that penetrates and breaks you down. We forced them into bad angles because our defensive pressure kept them out of the paint.

There are a ton of angles yet to be pursued or that we will continue to pursue. There's still a large question of how many people died and how they determine it, and why did so many people die.

We didn't have any flow because Hamilton County played their tails off. They are well-disciplined on offense, and with their defense, we couldn't pass the ball to where we wanted because of double-teams, and the different angles (Hamilton County) showed.

We knew we had to come out and play with more passion in the second half. Omro had a great game plan against us in the first half and we had to come back and answer that.

We knew that this goalie kicks out rebounds, so we wanted to shoot from all angles and drive to the net, and it worked on the first goal. You can't let a team skate like that.

When you're away from the course, obviously things are a little bit different. But when you're at the course, you're playing, you're grinding. Today, I'm preparing.

(Trainer) Danny Smith has opened my mind. I try to make sure I throw my combinations and work my angles and end defensively.

We wanted to break him in like any other player. To get him ready defensively is very important. There are a lot of different throws, angles and distances. The good news is he's swinging the bat and running.

We don't understand that yet, but we're getting there.

You have to put the puck on net from wide angles to create opportunities.

You get to the stage where every little bit of criticism that comes to you, you use to make you stronger, ... We get it from a lot of angles now and we hope to answer it by success.

You do take him for granted. He's very quiet, but his technique is fantastic. His sets are the same every time. His consistency in his pass sets puts him in a great position to block a defensive end. Angles are everything; pass sets are everything. He uses his hands well. You see him every day after practice taking extra sets. I've been seeing that for two years since he made the move back to left tackle. He's physical; he's tough; looks bigger and stronger. When you watch Marvel Smith play the game, you can't help but go 'Wow'. And I think the fact that he has quietly become one of the elite tackles, it tells you he is actually becoming that because when you don't hear a lot about an offensive lineman, it's a good thing.

to read the angles of receivers and how they're coming off the ball and what routes they're trying to give me and not get sucked up on the run. I'm still having trouble with that. I still get overanxious, and that is something I cannot do.

Brittany was dead-on with her angles and she controlled her rebounds. She kept her composure in a pressure-cooker type of game and showed a lot of confidence tonight.

Angles change every second within a play, ... You don't ever see somebody running straight. That's why I think the 40 is overrated. And not just because I didn't run it well.

The work he did on 'Murder Book' was visually stunning. He sees things in a different way, a more artistic and original way, in everything from the camera angles he chooses to the way scenes are lit. It feels unique and very distinctive.

Anthony, you're playing your angles correctly. If you weren't, those go in.

As far as different bells and whistles that we offered, there wasn't anything tremendous that stood out. In theory, in the future we could feed multiple camera angles online and people could direct their own launch, which would be nice.

They (the students) now have to deal with knowing where the camera angles are going to be on them and understanding that there isn't going to be as much applause and as much reaction.

A lot of times with the width of the rink you have bad angles ... you're always looking to pass the puck because you think somebody's going to be in a better position (to shoot).

There was one thing which I thought was tremendous fun, namely finding as many angles as possible within the confines of a single room.

There's a lot of good drives I hit that end up in the rough, and that's kind of the way it is. As long as you're missing on the right side and have angles to the pin, you can manage.

It requires us to use some of the tactics they use. We're always looking for new angles ? billboards, buses, television ? to reach kids and young adults.

It's the first time I've ever had one. Kids had some angles on him, he just outran them. ... You're going to see some big runs like that before he graduates.

It's not a question of shutting him down, because you know he's going to get his shots. You just want to force him into terrible angles to give your goalie a chance. You can't put Jagr out there eight times on the power play and expect to kill it off every time.

It's very tough to get clean looks on him, and even when you get clean looks he plays the angles so well it's hard to score on him.

They did block a lot, but that's no different than the way they played all year. You've just got to find a way to get the puck to the net from a lot of different angles to get opportunities.

Hey, Maria wants it. She's starting to learn to move better and cut off angles and things like that. I'm a big believer in Maria. I think she's very hungry.

He's got a great motor and he uses his power and understands the blocking angles and what he needs to do to get off the block. A lot of those kids inside, they never get off a block. It's like an elephant in the middle of the field. He's not that.

He's made three or four goals in the last three years that I need to see that again on tape before I can believe it. He's had a couple of jaw-dropping goals from impossible angles and banana shots. He's done some pretty bizarre things that turned out to be really good. Everybody just stands there and shakes their heads.

You can talk about height and angles and position all you want. I just wanted it more than they did.

The media looks for the stories and the angles of what's going wrong.
