despite directed operas plain work
I've directed traditional operas and it's been wonderful. But despite all the work they require, operettas are just plain fun.
advantage attacking felt match scared
We weren't scared of them. We felt we could match up with them. The only thing was that I think we got away from attacking like we had. They had 20 turnovers, but we didn't take advantage of as many of them as we should have.
both coach ends guard helps provide
Especially when one of 'em (Jackson) is a guard coach and the other one (Levingston) a big-man coach. That helps us out tremendously at both ends of the floor. They can provide us with that playoff, that championship, atmosphere.
everybody expect knows nobody
Everybody knows Duke. Nobody will expect us to do anything. We're going to go in there and see what we can do.
desire either learning married outspoken works
She has been very outspoken about her desire to be a young bride... so the idea of her learning what it's like to be married works either way.
case fault life lost movement nine record shows time
The record shows very long lapses of time when there's no movement on the case at all. That is inexcusable. Somebody's responsible for that. This is nine years now of a man's life lost by no fault of his own.
listen start sway today works
It's like champagne. When you listen to it, you start to sway with the tune. It works as well today as it ever did.
building business finished foot monday moving size triple
We're moving into a 60,000 foot building, so it's about triple the size of the building that we're in now. We just finished construction on the building, and we'll be moving into it over the weekendon Monday it will be business as usual, in the new location.
powerful giving growth
We need to give the private sector many more powerful incentives to do research and development, to bring ideas and new discoveries to market in Canada, and commercialize them here, and stay here through successive stages of growth. But they can only do it with better government policies that give them more powerful incentive.
thinking people citizenship
I think it is right for Canadians to be asked to show their faces when they're taking the oath. On revocation of citizenship, we do not let people who have criminal records, including convictions for terrorism, become either permanent residents or citizens. I think there is a limit beyond which someone has really cashed in their chips in terms of their allegiance to Canada.
people done economy
There are people who just haven't done as well in a globalized economy.
hurt people commodity
The plant goes down. The industry is weaker. The price of the commodity has lagged. Any of those things can push people into unemployment or lower income categories, and that hurts.
real war eye
I really see the U.S. staggering under the burden of three blows. One is 9/11 and the threat of terrorism, which is still huge in Syria, Iraq, and elsewhere. The second is the failed 2003 war in Iraq, which cost so much and ruined America's credibility in the eyes of so many. Obama has repaired it to some extent, but those scars are deep. And then, thirdly, banks failed, the whole real estate market had the carpet pulled out from under it.
small-business enjoy taxes
The marginal tax rate for high income earners is going up. Small businesses are no longer enjoying some of the exemption from payroll tax. Now there will be carbon taxes.
