We've had a few more years to get obese and develop chronic illnesses, whereas they are just beginning. So, if they can look at these comparisons and say, 'We need to stop this now,' they might be better off in the long run.

There is a lot to be said for self-belief. It is a good part of the equation and I don't think that it was with us this time last year. There was more self-doubt then, whereas now we are starting to believe that we should be up there at the front.

You have very short travel blogs, and I think there's a split among travel writers: the service-oriented writers will say, 'Well, the reader wants to read about his trip, not yours.' Whereas I say, the reader just wants to read a good story and to maybe learn something.

You have to work at identifying and maintaining and keeping abreast of the risk because it's being done somewhere else. Whereas if you own your own manufacturing, you have much better control over your costs and products.

With respect to how long it's going to take us to get down the hill, we don't have a whole lot of experience driving this vehicle downhill -- we've been going uphill for more than a year now. We're going to have to take it carefully at first and learn as we go. I think the deciding factor is going to be how good the geology is. If we're finding geology that offers truly compelling targets (for study) as we found on the way up, then our pace is going to be a lot slower whereas if it's a lot of loose sand and that sort of thing we'll be able to move through it a lot more briskly and head to the good stuff off in the distance.

What Guitar Hero has done is to turn music inside out. Whereas the iPod made music very personal, very singular - you put your ear-buds in and you listen to it - Guitar Hero turned it around and made it very social. So it is fun to play. It's fun to play against people.

We're part of a professional team and a professional league and it's run like that. To me, it's night and day. We've had plenty of players knocking on our door, whereas that wasn't the case with the Enforcers and what we were putting on the ice.

What the Commerce Department calls savings is something different from what ordinary people call savings. Commerce calls savings basically current income not spent, whereas individuals call their savings really their wealth, their accumulation of all past savings.

What's happening now is that they are marrying these guys to get around the law. That's creating some concern, ... Whereas the children had been protected originally, now a lot of these sex offenders are becoming their stepdads.

To me, it was absolutely crystal clear at this stage last year that Carrie Underwood would win the competition. So it all felt a bit obvious. Whereas this year, I could argue the case for seven or eight of the contestants. I genuinely don't know who's gonna win. I've got a feeling who are gonna make the finals. But once you're in the finals, I think you're gonna have the most open competition you've ever seen, which for us and the viewers at home, that's a good thing.

To be honest I am more focused on getting into the side here at the Borders that worrying about Scotland right now. There is so much strength in the back row at this club. I feel that we definitely have the squad here that can win games whereas last year we were not quite equipped for the job. We have made a few signings and I see no reason why we can't win a few matches. The players are really close, probably more so than last year.

We're different. We have a healthy Andy Pettitte, which certainly helps. We also don't have Jeff Kent, Carlos Beltran and a healthy Jeff Bagwell. Now our reputation starts and ends with our pitching, whereas last year it was a little different. People thought of Bagwell and Biggio and an offensive juggernaut.

We live everything as it comes, without warning, like an actor going on cold. And what can life be worth if the first rehearsal for life is life itself? That is why life is always a sketch. No sketch is not quite the right word, because a sketch is an outline of something, the groundwork for a picture, whereas the sketch that is our life is a sketch of nothing, an outline with no picture.

(Boise State) will try and beat you on shape rather than on skills. Whereas Cal Poly is a slicker team that is more talented. You are going to see guys that are more athletic, so you have to be prepared for it.

Brent was essentially an idiot who wasn't that bad but just wanted to be popular, ... whereas Andy has a different theme: The world owes him a living.

'Broad City' is how I wish we could all be, whereas 'Girls' is maybe a more accurate representation of how things are.

British Airways was doing everything they could do to put Virgin Atlantic out of business -- what's become famous here as the dirty tricks campaign, ... We felt that we needed the financial muscle to combat them. And I still had a lot to prove at Virgin Atlantic whereas we proved that we could, you know, build and run a successful record company.

Even in the '80s when people were gay, it was still difficult for them to come out, whereas nowadays, 20 years on, I think, um, we have a far more open-minded society that embraces the notion of homosexuality, and I think there was this doubt about my gender, you know, and at the time it possibly was controversial but... they missed my message, if you see what I mean, because for me it wasn't about a sexual issue, it was more of a feminist thing.

Biographies are, in their nature, far more difficult to make into films than novels, because novels come with plots constructed and dialogue written, whereas I don't invent dialogue for my subjects or plot their lives for them.

Big Bang contracts nearly always end in tears. You hardly ever make any money out of them. Whereas with the incremental growth path, some of that business is incredibly profitable.

As the saying goes that a man is known by the company he keeps. Good company can make a man whereas bad company can ruin him.

As I told Piers Morgan, 'Catholics have confession, whereas Northern Irish Protestants only have interviews.'

Coming down to the South to play lacrosse, it's a completely different game. Lacrosse is so new here and fresh. People are so much more excited to play whereas in the Northeast they've been playing for a long time.

Don't force yourself to write. Some people can write a novel in a few months, whereas for others it can take over a year. I'm lucky to be one of the former - but, even so, if I'm not in the mood to write, I won't. I'll go off, do something else and come back to it when I'm ready.

Conventional medicine interventions did better than placebo, whereas the homeopathy interventions basically did the same as placebo.

An intelligence analyst may attribute an attack to al Qaeda, whereas a policy maker could opt for the more general 'extremist.'

European musicians didn't learn popular music, whereas in America we did, ... So you played in bands, you played in orchestras, you played everything. The high-art/low-art idea, that was a very European idea and not much appreciated in America. People like Cole Porter and Gershwin were considered very important composers.

Eurasia's main axis is east/west, whereas the main axis of the Americas is north/south. Eurasia's east/west axis meant that species domesticated in one part of Eurasia could easily spread thousands of miles at the same latitude, encountering the same day-length and climate to which they were already adapted.

There's probably more growth here because it's still in a startup-type mode, whereas the Australian and the U.S. REIT markets are at more mature points in their cycles.

There's now a possibility of a pause whereas last week I would have described the thought as lunacy. But this does not necessarily portend a pause, ... The Fed will be busy in the next two weeks to come up with as much hard information as to the size and duration of the hurricane effect.

I should have done it earlier. But we needed more help at that other side. For whatever reason, he was just smoother and simpler, whereas on the right side, he struggled. Some guys, I guess, are like that.

I've been getting a lot of reps in practice so I'm a lot more comfortable in the offense right now. Whereas last year, I had none.

I've been kick-boxing for exercise. And now if I turn on boxing on the television by accident, I watch it, and I love it. Whereas a year ago, I thought it was the stupidest thing I had even seen-that you would voluntarily watch these people beat the crap out of each other and think, oh, that's entertainment.

The women use their vacation more because, I think, they feel more responsible for taking care of their families, so their spouses and their children affect their decisions about vacation, whereas the men are more purely focused on work,

The word war itself has a kind of glazing abstraction to it that conjures up bombs and bullets and so on, whereas my goal is to try to, so much as I can, capture the heart and the stomach and the back of the throat of readers who can lie in bed at night and participate in a story.

These baskets are much more of a brokerage product, whereas our mutual fund customers are coming for professional management.

The social context of the UK is more open to the future, the old pessimism has been scrubbed and there's a view that you can engage with the future again. There is quite a lot of optimism in British science fiction, much less of the sackcloth and ashes and 'we're all going to die' attitude that it used to have, whereas the Americans have become more entrenched and fearful since 2001.

The tactician knows what to do when there is something to do; whereas the strategian knows what to do when there is nothing to do.

The summer sunset would be way over to the north of the pier -- far to the artist's right, whereas summer full Moons would run low in the sky and set exactly where he shows it. That tells us that the yellow disk must be the full Moon.

The theatre fulfills, whereas the cinema is empty.

The thing about radio is that it's got an intimate feel. What I like is that you don't have to give it your full attention - you can still do something else that the same time, whereas TV is all-enveloping: you have to sit there and pay attention to it, and give yourself over to it. You have to surrender to it, but you don't with radio.

Rugby's a game of possession, whereas football is a game of yardage.

SAP is going to retain a lot of its proprietary ABAP code in developing its next generation SOA applications whereas Oracle's approach is to try to get away from legacy and proprietary code and move to a pure Java J2EE environment. Even though the task Oracle has is more complicated in that they have to integrate applications from multiple acquisitions, they will achieve a more open kind of environment.

Quarterbacks make a big difference in the playoffs. With Rex Grossman, the Bears are a team that can conceivably beat you on offense as well as defense, whereas I don't know that you could have said that about Jim Miller.

quality funds in a well-diversified portfolio that earned 9.3 percent (all accounts) in the last 12 months, whereas the S&P 500 lost 14.8 percent.

Quintessence is a dynamic, time-evolving, and spatially dependent form of energy with negative pressure sufficient to drive the accelerating expansion, ... Whereas the cosmological constant is a very specific form of energy vacuum energy quintessence encompasses a wide class of possibilities.

Ragtime has about the same amount of respect as comics. And in a way they're similar art forms. Ragtime is highly compositional, and the emotion in the music is built in, whereas in jazz a lot of that emotion comes from the way it's performed.

Priority is placed on the chastity of women. You can be corrupt, or a murderer and still hold your head up high on the street without problems, whereas if there are any suspicions of your chastity and moral behaviour as a woman, you get lynched.

Offensively, we penetrated a lot. And Brittany Wilson was good at doing that for us. But our shots weren't falling from the outside. We might get one put-back, whereas Plano West would make all of theirs.

Advertisers work on the premise that younger people haven't established a brand preference yet haven't decided on a car, haven't decided on a fast food restaurant, and that they are more likely to be influenced by advertising. Whereas older viewers have already chosen their brand of toothpaste.

The one-day game is so structured and you have your own roles back in your country, and a few players had to play outside those roles, whereas in Test cricket you just go out there and play, so there is no real structures to the game so hopefully we will be a better Test side.

The old philosophy was kind of like, 'Let's start our own legacy,' whereas Coach Weis wants us to create our own legacy while honoring the past.

An idea can be tested, whereas if you have no idea, nothing can be tested and you don't understand anything. The molecule that you make when you are getting sunburned or when you eat a lot of food is part of the same molecule that contains an endorphin or an opiate. No one has ever had a hypothesis about why the two are together.

As an outsider, this one-shot policy strikes me as a little extreme, ... Somehow, we view mental health as totally under a person's control, whereas physical health is not.

As always, there are things to work on, but I am seeing the players incorporating things we work on in practice into the matches, whereas before they would work on it in practice, but never attempt in an actual game.

The Brothers Grimm is a work of fantasy by one of the true visionary filmmakers working today, whereas The Cave is just one big silly, scary action movie.

Auditioning and actually acting on a set are two different things. When you audition, you're in a room and you don't have anything to play with and you don't have anything physically in the room. Whereas on set, you have direction, you have costumes, and you have other actors to work with. It's a completely different thing.

Back then the shows were maybe 50 or 60 minutes, whereas now, they're like an hour and 20 minutes. We've cut it back to two shows a day instead of four. That makes it a bit more manageable.

That's where all the growth has been. Now there's an acceptance of the A320 as a low-cost workhorse, whereas prior to that the 737 was the plane of choice.

That's where all the growth has been. Now there's an acceptance of the A 320 as a low-cost workhorse, whereas prior to that the 737 was the plane of choice.

Zippy has no problem with the irrationality of the universe, whereas most of us are desperately trying to make order out of the universe, and our lives.

The U.S. players are ahead of us in the world rankings, they have major winners which is a significant factor, ... We do have a more balanced team in Europe for the first time. I think in the past we have tried to play five or six players against 12 U.S. players, whereas this time around I think we are going to try and play 12 against 12 which is a new experience.

This a great opportunity to be around the game. Obviously, there will be a little bit more responsibility. As (the) hitting coach (last season), I was kind of lurking in the shadows whereas the manager has to deal with hitters, the pitchers, the front office and the fans. It's a bigger responsibility, but one I accept and look forward to.

This administration is seen as being very pro-investment, whereas Kerry is seen as wanting to rewrite the rules -- on capital gains, tax cuts on the wealthy, certain business regulations. I think, for market psychology, that would be damaging.

America is not an elephant. For one thing, elephants never forget, whereas Americans don't really know much to begin with. Ninety per cent of them can't pick out their hometown on an unmarked map...We're bigger than they are and we're on top. If we were in prison, they'd be our bitch.

They didn't have a lot of success here last year. But they came back with some experience this time, and you see the result. That was a good team we played today. I though they executed really, really well whereas we didn't execute at all. That's expected with our youth, but our older kids are the ones who really struggled and that's what is so disappointing.

They are predicting that profit will be up a bit, whereas the momentum previously was quite strong over several years.

There was definitely a focus on what we had to do for the obvious reasons. If we lose that game, we all realize we put ourselves in a heck of a bad spot here for the rest of the way.

There's also the change in gender roles, that men are more comfortable with telling how they feel and saying 'Oh, I was scared. This was terrible,' whereas 50 or 100 years ago you would never have got that,

There's an intimacy lost on the big audiences, but there's also a sort of cool kind of buzz that you get from it too, like 'Wow -- there are 10,000 people here.' It tends to be a little more high energy, and you try to capture as many people as you can; whereas with a small show, you reveal a little bit more personality. I almost feel like I'm there hanging out with them or something. We mix it up. I do little intimate shows just because if I go a long time without doing them, it gets kind of weird -- like I'm playing at people.

A tax-managed fund is simply a fund who's goal it is to maximize after-tax returns, whereas most funds are focused on pretax returns, ... I think the one thing that probably all of them have is the idea of selling losers to offset gains. If you've just realized profits on one stock you'll sell a few dogs.

As usual we have done plenty of preparation but as in the past we face strong competition from the other states who are fortunate enough to have the majority of their boys playing golf full-time whereas our boys all hold down full-time jobs.

As women, we feel we can't ask for things. There's been a lot of research done recently and, more often than not, if a woman goes in to ask for a raise, she'll get it. But she's thinking, 'Do I deserve it? I've got to give a list of why I deserve it.' Whereas a man will just go in and ask for a raise. It's so scary.

It's fairly crisp in this, whereas over here in the original image you can see how broken up it is.

I try to enjoy a movie or a television programme just like anybody else. I'd love to be emerged into the story and watch it, but if you work a lot as an actor, in any aspect of the industry, things might arise in a programme that somebody might miss, whereas it might catch your attention.

It might feel a little sweet in live action, whereas in animation, there's a sincerity to it that is germane to the art form,

It's very difficult when you have as low a market share as they do to get dealers interested. A dealer has to sell a Mac, whereas he doesn't have to sell a Windows machine, since the Windows machine is a known quantity.

It's very common in elected official positions that when you come into office you reuse what was left by your predecessor. Whereas in an agency, you have a predictable amount of use and should be able to maintain an appropriate amount of inventory.

For instance, a dashboard showing traffic flow in a train or bus terminal needs to reflect data that is changing every minute, whereas a dashboard showing average deal size by sales rep for a retailer may only require daily or weekly updates. The process dictates the requirement for real-time updates or real-time data access.
