Somewhat Quotations | Page 4

It is somewhat of a consideration, but if we think a guy is a player, we won't hold that against him. Sometimes you have a big lineman maybe who is dominating a bunch of little, bitty guys it's hard to get a feel, but there are also camps and combines and those type of things that let you get a little better look at some of these guys.

It is somewhat normal to see this kind of jump when a team like Seattle has this kind of season. It's a team that is really becoming discovered and is gaining fans across the country.

It is somewhat ironic. Jessica Williams, we know she was not impaired because a jury said so, yet she is in jail. With Veronica Schmidt, we don't know if she's impaired, and she's free.

It is somewhat astounding when I think that in over four years, with various combinations of girls, we have taken first place every time in the 200 medley relay. That is a very impressive streak.

It is somewhat arbitrary because it's a moving average. How do you determine what you would have earned on that particular date?

I thought we discussed wages and COLAs in our closed session and the board established bargaining guidelines last week. I'm somewhat at a loss that this is a continuing discussion.

I think we probably get somewhat better prices,

I think we have to change. We have to improve our bullpen somewhat and find someone to play center field.

I think we're quite mindful of the advent of the billion-dollar funds that we saw come into the market over the early part of 2000 to 2003, and there is still somewhat of a 'hangover effect,' which is forcing a lot of dollars into the later stage market. Consequently, we think there is a capital gap in the early stage venture market.

I think we sort of hit the bottom. Overall, it's been a great investment for both the town and myself. Things have been somewhat slower in the last three or four years.

I think casting is important because if you get the right actors cast then you appear to be a much better director than you are because then it goes very smoothly. But if you make a mistake in the casting and you want a performance that is somewhat different to what they want to do, it's going to be very difficult.

I think because there are real Indian and Pakistani constituencies in the United States , we'll wind up with money for earthquake relief that may be somewhat above the norm for these kinds of forgotten disasters. I think donors still have some spare change in their pockets.

I think as a staff we're going to try and re-establish some of that tradition. It was one of the stronger programs. (The players) are somewhat aware there is tradition here. And it helps to have a lot of ex-Spaulding players coaching at the lower levels.

I think it somewhat comes natural, ... You always want to know what's going on with your team. The biggest thing about leadership is being able to perform on the ice the way you want the guys to perform. Lead by example.

It is not a massive savings, not like putting in 10 percent energy and getting out 100 percent. We find it is somewhat better than gasoline, but it's not a home run.

I think that's been somewhat of a motivation factor for us coming into this year, to not get snubbed. That's why I think we took it one game at a time.

I think that Jupiter's conclusions are, absent documented evidence of this development, somewhat optimistic, ... They (consumers) do their research on the computer, then they buy in the store, but they're not going to buy more than they had planned to buy. They might buy different things from what they had planned to buy, but there are only so many dollars to go around.

I think that in order to write really well and convincingly, one must he somewhat poisoned by emotion. Dislike, displeasure, resentment, faultfinding, imagination, passionate remonstrance, a sense of injustice -- they all make fine fuel.

I went straight from the Marine Corps to the MFA. The way that you would express things among Marines is somewhat different than the way you're supposed to express things in a creative-writing workshop.

I went to college because my father thought that I should learn engineering, because he wanted to go into the heating business with me. There, I realized I wanted to be a physicist. I had to tell him, which was a somewhat traumatic experience.

I was just thinking about it yesterday, wondering if I'm going to get fooled or not, ... It's going to help me somewhat because I know what those guys can do and I know some of their releases, but they're in a totally different offense. In one respect, it will (help me), but in another, they run totally different routes now.

I think they made a lot of fashion changes, but there's been a general malaise in women's fashion apparel. What's somewhat concerning here is that Nordstrom has transitioned totally to fall earlier. Is their fashion not on target, or is the consumer really concerned about the rising gas prices?

I think they're probably somewhat disappointed. They probably looked at their portfolio and said, I didn't do as well as the Dow. I made money, but I'm kind of disappointed.

I think the spike in permits, in retrospect, should have been somewhat predictable. But the strength of the housing market throughout the year was surprising.

I think the share price will open unchanged or dip somewhat due to the fact that both the gross and operating margin were lower than expected.

I think the Senate is somewhat in shambles. I don't think there are enough votes to pass an education plan that will pass the court's scrutiny.

It is a somewhat surprising, especially the home losses, because we've done such a good job the last three years of protecting our home court.

It is also somewhat sexist to think that she has to stop her career so Jim can be governor. What if (Democratic candidate) Dina Titus is elected governor? Will her husband give up his career as a college professor to become the first man?

I think the SEC had to get aboard this ship. Otherwise, they would look like they are lagging behind the parade. They have been somewhat embarrassed by being behind everyone on the issue of accounting reform.

I think there's some people on the Street who are somewhat dissatisfied with his tenure at the moment, but don't think there's any immediate threat to his position. I think it's very difficult to keep people happy when your company goes through something like this.

Last year, he was somewhat frustrated with not playing,

Last season, we used Nigel as more of an emergency-type player. Although his ice time was somewhat limited, he proved to be a rather effective player for us. In fact, he really has earned the opportunity to play more. Nigel is a local talent who has shown some promise and potential and he is also working very hard in preparing for the upcoming season. We know that he is looking forward to the start of the new season.

I think companies have been so focused on improving operations. Quite frankly, they have been somewhat negligent about their burgeoning cash balances.

ISC found that speaking to vendors through the CERT advisory process was somewhat awkward and made for extra work on both sides, ... The next time we learn, through CERT or otherwise, that there is an attackable bug in code that we've published, we hope to have a direct and very private communications forum with the people who run the Internet infrastructure or who need lead time to prepare patches for their customers.

I remember my father, who was 'somebody' in the synagogue, bringing home with him one of the poor men who waited outside to be chosen to share the Passover meal. These patriarchal manners I remember well, although there was about them an air of bourgeois benevolence which was somewhat comic.

OPEC's statements and quota decision announced at the beginning of next week could exert a somewhat bearish impact on prices.

People are getting famous now for serving food out of a truck, or for, well, pork buns. I don't know if I'm really pleased to be a part of that. I'm somewhat terrified of what the future holds, especially in America.

People are clearly feeling somewhat frustrated that the Iranians have been given lots of opportunities they don't seem to want to take advantage of.

Our investigation needs to find out whether Enron's actions were legal, somewhat questionable, highly questionable or even illegal, ... In the end, what's legal for any company could be the most shocking of all.

Our city has become a rubber stamp for development, ... We bend over backwards to welcome developers. I think if we did have someone on the City Council who is somewhat of an environmental activist, that would be a beautiful thing.

Over the course of a decade, people's views evolve somewhat and situations change. I deal with the situation as I find it.

Pacific has a new coach this year and a young team. I'm sure they see this year as somewhat of a rebuilding year, but they play in the strongest conference in college women's water polo, so we are going to expect some good competition from them.

Over the period ahead, as the full effects of the sequence of monetary policy moves plays out, I expect that output growth will settle on a path that is somewhat below what we saw in the first quarter, probably growing at close to the economy's potential.

Our preferred alternative will be somewhat of a blend or a combination of those.

Overall the security situation in Mazar remains somewhat unstable. As of this morning, we heard reports that along with occasional looting there is also 'punitive action' that is being carried out. We have also heard that fighting is continuing in and around the city.

Overall, the numbers were somewhat neutral, so we continued with the trend from this morning, which was upward.

Overall, the macro-environment was somewhat challenging for software vendors in the third quarter, but we are expecting to see in-line quarters from most of the companies.

Overall, the data for the capital goods sector remains somewhat erratic, but the underlying trend remains upward.

Out of monuments, names, words, proverbs, traditions, private records and evidences, fragments of stories, passages of books, and the like, we do save and recover somewhat from the deluge of time

Right now, our nation is in somewhat of a crisis. We don't have now and are not producing now enough engineers to keep the United States competitive in a global market.

Right tackle has been somewhat of a problem. Us getting it together as a group with consistency has been somewhat of a problem that we need to improve on.

Right tackle has been somewhat of a problem,

REPROBATION, n. In theology, the state of a luckless mortal prenatally damned. The doctrine of reprobation was taught by Calvin, whose joy in it was somewhat marred by the sad sincerity of his conviction that although some are foredoomed to perdition, others are predestined to salvation.

Recent events make this a particularly challenging and somewhat anomalous time for our company,

Our opponents were certainly technically somewhat better than us, ... But they have to score their own goals ... later on they only operated with long balls and looked helpless.

People keep trying to wring more uses out of the old form factors, the old PCs. I'm somewhat skeptical about their ability to really drive into new markets at this point, ... A lot of these ideas have been around for a long time. IBM had a tablet PC, the Word Pad, out several years ago with limited success, and a lot of people are working on better ways of connecting businesses and consumers to business. I think they've demonstrated some really strong uses, but they're more evolutionary than revolutionary, at this point.

Survey results, while somewhat weaker than the rest of the nation, continue to point to growth for Missouri in the months ahead. Of course challenges and opportunities related to automobile industry restructuring will be an important driver in the near and intermediate term.

Surf City, to me, is a state of mind, ... and the fact we have to go to the Legislature and legislative acts to either do it or not do it ? it?s somewhat disappointing. But I?m glad in one aspect that it?s like, ?Let?s just drop this thing.?

Stability is somewhat returning to stocks, which took a hit earlier this week due to concerns that the Bank of Japan may raise interest rates earlier than previously thought.

Stability is somewhat returning as some of the uncertain factors are being cleared. Chances now look higher than before that quantitative easing will be abolished next week.

Some of the players are on the fence, so to speak, and have their last opportunity to show - basically the European-based players. For our players it's also very good for them to be in a venue where they also get to play Italy and feel somewhat comfortable in this venue before we actually come back for our final preparations.

Some people are great at dieting and train somewhat inconsistently - for those people, getting on a great training program and following it will be the best thing for you.

That doesn't mean that everybody who has at one time exercised is going to be a brilliant person. But if you are a somewhat intelligent person, you have the capacity for learning and you're an active person, who's a healthy person, you're going to do better at your learning.

That addresses, I think, sort of the diversity of Prince Edward Island, ... To show there is support somewhat across P.E.I.

My timing was off and I got somewhat ahead of myself in my eagerness for a break point. I'd like to limit these types of routine errors in the future,

My office address and email address are somewhat public info at this point. It was by this method I was contacted for TV Road Trip.

Nasser's been the primary architect of a failed transformation of Ford from its core automotive heritage to some expansive consumer-centric organization, which we think employees, dealers, suppliers and investors have found to varying degrees to be somewhat incomprehensible.

My mother loves to remind me that about the age of four, I made a somewhat formal announcement that I was going to be a plumber when I grew up.

Looking ahead, we anticipate a somewhat softer third quarter and, again, a more dynamic fourth quarter resulting in mid-single-digit sales growth... and solid operating growth for the full year,

Margin pressures were intense in the fourth quarter due to the weighting of video products in our sales mix as well as the highly promotional retail environment, ... These pressures will ease somewhat as the current video cycle matures,

Mars is essentially in the same orbit. Mars is somewhat the same distance from the Sun, which is very important. We have seen pictures where there are canals, we believe, and water. If there is water, that means there is oxygen. If there is oxygen, then we can breathe.

Linux has been somewhat suspect in performance compared to NT 4.0, and if Windows 2000 raises the bar, it raises the bar above where Linux is competing. On the other hand, there's no stopping Linux being the key alternative to Windows 2000 for as far as we can see.

I won't say where they are going to start. But he is the type of guy we are looking for to hopefully place in between two left-handers that have somewhat similar stuff and not give opposing clubs an opportunity to see the same type of stuff on consecutive days.

I won't say I'm saddened, but I'm somewhat disappointed that they don't want to share in the vision of this league. I consider it an amicable parting, and we'll go down different roads.

I was very proud to be somewhat a small part of that. Some of the greatest young people in the world played for us through those years, and I do swell up with a little bit of emotion when I think about that group.

I was very proud of individual efforts, but tonight was the first time I was somewhat disappointed in team effort.

It feels real good. Today I knew going into I was going to play good. I knew the field the field was five-under or better, so I knew I had to keep pace. And I somewhat did. I shot seven-under and I hope I can do it again tomorrow.

I still live somewhat by the Zone, it's the only thing that works for me. Before, I had been starving myself and in a dieting vortex I couldn't get out of. Now I pretty much eat whatever I want.

I think our teams are somewhat similar in terms of talent and playing style, but they are much more experienced. I think it's going to come down to whether I can keep my girls focused and composed. We have to keep the nerves out.

I think our somewhat up and down form is due to the fact that several of our players need a rest. Because of our paper-thin squad and because finance restricts us from making loan signings, I have to go with what I've got, but at the tail-end of the season, I think that's costing us.

I think people would really like to have fewer devices in their world rather than more. Having to manage the data you have on the cell phone, and also manage on the computer is somewhat complicated. There could be advantages in being able to synchronize those.

I think right now it is a serious race and it's a competitive race, but it is somewhat on hold because I think a majority of people are waiting to see how things are playing out in the courts, how the charges are settled.

I think people's faith in government is somewhat wishful thinking.

I think most people see their homes as somewhat transitory, and they're almost resigned about it. Say you have a house that's worth $1.3 million. Is it a reasonable expectation that you'll ever pay it off? Probably not. The most people hope for is that someday they'll sell it for a profit or leave it to the kids, who might have to sell it but will maybe make a little money.

I think if you have a coach that's somewhat successful and has a tie to the school, it's a plus. But if you have a coach that has been very successful and doesn't have a tie to the school, I wouldn't be married to the guy with the tie to the school.

I think in general, all of us are somewhat disappointed in the second half of this calendar year in terms of the semiconductor opportunity.

I think he's got all the tools that you look for as far as an outfielder. He's got the tools to be somewhat of an all-around guy for us.

I think he was confused and somewhat bewildered at first, somewhat shocked at his circumstances,

I think generally the store might have lost its way somewhat in the early days. I think what Chuck Conaway has tried to do is get at the core of what their consumer is all about. He's building relationships with the consumer, building a more personal experience in the store, which is something they really didn't ever have.

I think for the near-term it's probably done. Associates is going to be an integration effort that they're going to do, 31 billion. That's what the size was in market cap. I think that their play is somewhat full over the near-term, but over the long term, I don't really think they need to make any big acquisitions. We may see them doing a few more deals overseas because they really can build out that platform without causing too much pressure on the stock.

It creates somewhat of a more positive environment for negotiations, because the government has made this a personal case.

I think Jim Edmonds plays center field somewhat like how I played center field, and I like to watch him play it.

I think Jenson somewhat screwed me up there,

I thought he was somewhat passive. I thought he should have been more aggressive in terms of custody issues.

It is difficult to balance those two somewhat competing goals. But on balance, these (current) regulations seem to achieve that.

I'm still dealing with the 21-year-old me. That idealist, that purist, that young, noble, and somewhat foolish guy . . . So I tell them to try to hold on to the way they feel right now. Because that's going to effect them for the rest of their lives.

Management was somewhat cautionary about their January quarter,

Well, any time you're faced with fame on that level, it's - it can be somewhat unnerving because you're never taught how to manage it and how to deal with it. So you're sort of left out there on your own, trying to navigate those waters for yourself.

That was somewhat surprising because ground-based observers had been trying for more than a decade to find new satellites around Pluto. But I felt almost certain even when I first saw them that they were real objects not any sort of artifact and that they were exhibiting orbital motion around Pluto.

That structure is somewhat different than what we outside the deal had surmised,
