basically environment full good happened island mean poles serious
It doesn't mean that in this island environment that there can't have been some kind of vermin or termite infestation. But basically you have a good set of poles out here. Something happened that is very serious and we need to take a full look at it.
against athletes compete competition given level means monitor number ok open schools sports student summer
Given the level of competition that we're on, the schools we compete against and the number of sports that we're in, our student athletes are going year-round. So, open summer participation just means that these student athletes are just that much busier. But that's OK as long as there's some control, some limitations on it. We try to monitor it a little bit.
breadth good means money people rally variety willing
To me a broad-base rally is what you need right now. Breadth like this is good because it means people are willing to put money into a variety of stocks.
almost challenge corner last mean opportunity three turned weeks
We've turned a corner the last two weeks, and we almost did it three weeks ago. But you know what? That doesn't mean anything. There's another opportunity this week. There's another challenge this week, and it's a very big one.
mean thinking hip-hop
I think hip hop should be a living word. And what I mean by the living word is like yo, you gotta have the words that provide life.
mean policy borderline
I'm not a U.S. citizen. I mean, I'm an earth-izen. Borderline policies are crap to me.

Bigger doesn't mean better unless you really understand what bigger is.
mean thinking revolution
I think that revolution means change. And if somebody feels like there's nothing wrong, everything's great even when it ain't, why would they ask for a revolution? Just stick the tubes into me and just pump away.
letting-go heart mean
No matter what's in your head, you go up into any hospital, up to a terminal ward and it'll smack you right back into reality that, "Hey man, whatever you're dealing with, if it's heavy on your heart and head, you're gonna have to let that go, because there, some people are dealing with unavoidable situations that they can't let go." And then they eventually let those go, so, I mean, that's helpful.
real confused mean
Right is right, and wrong is wrong, and when people start getting it confused, that means they need to sit down with some real people.
art pain mean
You can actually take your pain and processes it into some kind of form of art. So I mean, I've easily always been able to do that, but also I've always been able to give myself perspective - or, you know, older people always give you perspective.
continue defending either governing means next position sometime stay step supporting year
That means they are either going to have to be in a position sometime next year to really step up in governing themselves, defending themselves, supporting themselves, or we can't continue to stay there indefinitely,
affected calls citizen families help incident lives magnitude means officers proud save sleep strive unable
I am proud of the officers in all the affected areas. An incident of this magnitude means that they are going without sleep and are unable to be with their own families as they strive to save the lives of others. When a citizen calls for help, an officer will respond. Our officers have called for help now, and we will not let them down.
circumstance higher mean yields
If done under the right set of circumstances, though, no-till can mean higher yields over the long term.
