Ability Quotes
There is a block on the Supreme Court, that I think would be confirmed if we are not successful in this election with Vice President Gore and Senator Lieberman, who want to drastically restrict the ability of the federal government to protect and promote the civil rights and human rights and basic needs of the American people,

Authority Quotes
We think there needs to be an up-or-down vote, and we think it ought to come sooner rather than later. There is a very real question if the administration has the authority to block this deal after it closes on Thursday. Even with this 45-day review, there is a legal question as to whether they could reverse their position, even if they wanted to.

Adjustment Quotes
We have to be ready for both 3-4 or 4-3. Either way, they've got good talent, (and) their defensive tackles (Pat and Kevin Williams) are outstanding. We spent time (in training camp) on the 3-4 and it shouldn't be a big adjustment for us. Regardless of where they line up inside, we've got to block them.

Defining Quotes
The play of the game was the missed block out on the free throw and he got the offensive rebound and put it back in and that kind of turned the tide right there. He did the things that he needed to do when his team needed to win. That's what we're searching for. We're searching for someone to make those kinds of plays in defining moments.

Blocking Quotes
We need to block and tackle well, that's been a lot of our focus. We always execute on offense and defense, the bottom line is it's just blocking and tackling. We're very optimistic about this year. I think the Ocean will be on a real upswing this year. There's not weeks off for anybody.

Active Quotes
When I went on my first run about two months after having my first child in 1998, I didn't get more than half a block before realizing that my shorts were soaked. I was very upset. As an athlete, I was used to being active and not having anything slow me down. Now I had to worry about leaking, while trying to return to the active lifestyle I was used to.

Broadway Quotes
But Lunceford was playing great music, and he was just a wonderful human being. We didn't even curse in front of him. We would play seven different shows a day at the Paramount Theater in New York, and we had seven different uniforms. People were lined around the block from Broadway to Seventh Avenue.

Additional Quotes
We see the TIF districts as one of the triggers to get the physical change. What we intend to do is start to work on some projects that will help generate these TIF dollars inside these districts that will help spawn additional construction and physical improvements. For example, the Queens Tower has a new owner. They are going to convert this all-apartment building to all condos and they have plans for some restaurants to create a new entertainment complex. And Kroger has an existing, outdated store in Price Hill. They have purchased all of the buildings that block their way to a major league expansion.

Ask Quotes
You ask us to tell you something, and when we kind of skate around the truth, that's accepted. But when we tell you what we believe to be the truth, I think we've been criticized. So it's a shame that he spoke out on what he believes and he's being criticized. What Stevens said is what he believes. Their job is to make sure it's not a big block party after the game. Our job is to make sure everybody gets a ticket.

Ask Quotes
Those two guys, Florence and Flannery, were outstanding on both sides of the ball. We ask them to block and then both have to play every defensive play. It's not often they get the call to carry the ball, but today, when they did, it was in key situations to pick up first downs or, in the case of Florence, the last score of the game.

Asked Quotes
What is helping the dollar is the moral persuasion of the central banks. There's been contact between the European Central Bank and national central banks that make up the ECB urging calm, urging a block on any kind of speculative trading. The Federal Reserve has also weighted in and asked that dollar trading be limited. I think that will support the currency.

Attack Quotes
We got a good block at the point of attack from Graham. Neal pulled and the safety came up and filled the gap quicker than we expected. That wasn't really the guy Neal was expecting to block but he saw him in the hole and reacted to it and dug him out of there. Matt and Logan (combination-blocked) the tackle up to (middle linebacker Danny) Clark. We didn't quite get Clark blocked, he got over the top, but he wasn't able to get enough on Corey to keep him out.

Area Quotes
We fumbled a snap and gave them a short field and I know we missed a block and a lineman came clear through and hit our quarterback and we fumbled, ... That's an area that we strongly emphasize, is playing keep possession of the ball. We don't care if it's a fifth-string backup or a starter, we're not big fans of a turnover.

Absolutely Quotes
We have to do all the things you do, whether it be change up the cadence, whether it be chipping guys, whether it be doubling. They do a good job of moving inside-outside to keep you from getting a good double-team on them. They'll bring the linebacker with the end to that side. So at times you just absolutely have to single block them.

Writing Quotes
Writer’s block is my unconscious mind telling me that something I’ve just written is either unbelievable or unimportant to me, and I solve it by going back and reinventing some part of what I’ve already written so that when I write it again, it is believable and interesting to me. Then I can go on. Writer’s block is never solved by forcing oneself to “write through it,” because you haven’t solved the problem that caused your unconscious mind to rebel against the story, so it still won’t work – for you or for the reader.

Angles Quotes
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.

Based Quotes
We do not want to sell away a viable PILOT program for the sake of moving the projects along. We are still collecting information because much of the information we have is based on assumptions. We are waiting to receive real, hard information. It is not our intention to block the projects, in fact we want to stay neutral.

Actions Quotes
Brad crossed the line and for that he must take accountability, ... We have talked in detail and he has assured me that his actions on the play at issue were a result of over-aggressiveness and over-exuberance to block a challenging opponent and without malice. His intent was to take the player to the ground, not to inflict injury. In any case, we regret that the incident occurred and apologize to Mathias.

Across Quotes
Because it had gotten into the waterway, we used absorbent booms and pads to block it from going any farther and soak up the diesel fuel. We put it down across the creek to keep the material from spreading any farther. We tried to contain it in as small an area as possible. Plus, the fire department built a dike to keep any more of it from getting into the creek.
