If we can understand why the world sees about 85 named storms a year and not, for example, 200 or 25, then we might be able to say that what we're seeing is consistent with what we'd expect in a global warming scenario. Without this understanding, a forecast of the number and intensity of tropical storms in a future warmer world would be merely statistical extrapolation. |
If we don't hear from the property owner, we monitor their home to see if something leads us to believe they are violating the ordinance. Then, we go to court and file for a search warrant. We'll look at names on prescriptions or the license plates at the homes, see if they are from several different counties or states, to identify how many people are living in the home. |

If you look at Reagan who had two [failed Supreme Court] nominees, who lost control of the Senate and had Iran-contra, did he still have a successful final three years? Absolutely, ... One of the great strengths of this team has been from the beginning their ability to keep their eye on the big picture and long-term [goals], while also dealing with short-term challenges. |
IM adds an entirely new dimension to our service offering, linking the mobile and PC worlds. We expect Mobile IM to enjoy the same popularity as PC-based IM. Young subscribers will respond to Mobile IM's coolness, and will enjoy fun, fast-paced, multi-party conversations simultaneously with friends, nearby and in distant time zones. We believe we have a hit on our hands. |

In most markets, a successful business model allows for both suburban publications and a large daily newspaper, under common ownership, to work in tandem rather than as separate units. I believe this realignment will allow both the Journal Sentinel and CNI to better serve our readers and advertisers with one cohesive management team and a shared vision for future growth. |
In practice, you can only simulate so much stuff, ... When you're live, things are different. You can't always drop back, set your feet, and throw the ball. It doesn't happen in this League, not with the way defenses move around and guys play. You've got to be able to move around back there and make people miss and find your guys. I think Stefan does that extremely well. |
In the areas that are critical to our survival, like Defense, Finance and the Ministry of Home Affairs, we look for the best talent. You lose New Orleans, and you have 100 other cities just like it. But we're a city-state. We lose Singapore and there is nothing else. So the standards of discipline are very high. There is a very high degree of accountability in Singapore. |
In the president's eyes, Yasser Arafat has never played a role as someone who could be trusted or was effective, and so that's why the president is focused on the Palestinian people and their just needs and their just concerns. And the president's focus is less on any one individual and more on the structures, the government, the authority the Palestinian people deserve. |
Incumbents in both parties are dancing perilously close to the edge right now: Gas prices are out of control, we are bogged down in Iraq and now politicians seem to be doing more talking than acting. We may be heading toward an election in which the attitude is to throw the bums out, and if that happens, Republicans will pay the bigger prices because they are in control. |
Instead of having a meeting in some far-off or inaccessible location, you'll have a meeting at the airport hotel where everyone from different places around the country can fly into a central location, have the meeting and then fly home. If you have to meet several people in one city you can just base yourself at the airport hotel and have people come to see you instead. |
It allows us to teach planetary sciences to students who are able to talk to us directly through videoconferencing. Underserved or underprivileged kids are our audience. We do it in cooperation with the National Guard, which sets up communication systems around the country for national security. They use the system on weekends and make it available to us during the week. |
It brings spiritual warfare and suffering for the priest as he identifies with those who suffer, and shares the frustrations, anger, and incomprehensibility of that suffering in what it does to those who suffer. The priest shares in these struggles of his suffering people, the uncertainties it brings, the sense of divine abandonment it induces, and the loneliness caused. |
It can enhance the excitement of the race. As it transfers to stock cars, and particularly applies to Daytona and Talladega, with the cars running closer together, a bump draft at the right time in the right place is not the worst thing in the world. But it has been turning bump drafting into slam drafting, because the hits just keep getting harder and harder and harder. |
