achievement apart base currently extremely job level pace proud rugby setting testimony tremendous view
I view that as a tremendous achievement and testimony that the rugby authorities are doing a job in that respect. Apart from broadening our base of young players, we are currently setting the pace at under-19 and under-21 (international) level ? something which we can be extremely proud of.
apartments few people turned wait willing work
We've turned down many people that need apartments right now. If they can wait for a few months, we're willing for them to put in an application and work with us.
apartment carry costs design diego move open rent san soon wife
My wife is a designer, and we need to move to San Diego pretty soon so we can open up our own design business. We were going to rent an apartment in San Diego, but we really don't want to carry costs in two places.
apart born chaos clean computer control countless drifting dying efforts fact falling fashion further imagine infinite life ludicrous matter moon neat orderly perfect perpetual reality research start state striving sweating vacuum
In our ludicrous efforts to 'change' and be perfect, we try to fashion a perfect world for ourselves. We start to imagine that we are actually in control of our world, which is further from reality than an all-parrot moon landing. The universe, our universe, is out of our control. We live on a speck drifting around in an infinite vacuum with countless trillions of other specks. Our world is in a perpetual state of perfect chaos and entropy, with everything falling apart and dying and being born haphazardly. Meanwhile, we try to make life as neat and clean and orderly as a computer research facility, when in fact it is more like a junkyard. It always has been, and it always will be, no matter how much fussing and sweating and striving we do to make it different.
fashion online shop talking
We've been talking to some of Nordstrom's online users, who are very, very important customers, and they talk about how when they go online sometimes they shop and sometimes they look for fashion inspiration.

We just played bigger people the last two games. We're not going to play 6-10, 6-10, 6-10, 6-10, 6-10 Thursday. I think we should be all right.
bounce market maybe point
We were overdue for a bounce after some very oversold conditions. Maybe we are getting to a point where the market is beaten-up enough.
beat job missed team
We missed a lot of tackles, and to beat a team like that you have to do a better job of tackling.
commit crimes worst
We went after the worst of the worst and told them, 'You will not commit crimes here any longer,'
advantage felt football game high level needed playing spark tremendous
We felt Brandon would have some opportunities in this game. He needed to take advantage of them and he did. He's been playing at a high level and he's been a tremendous spark in every football game we've played.
cheaply fairness felt figures initial offer process time work
We felt at the time of the initial offer that there was no way they'd be able to do it as cheaply as we do it ourselves, but out of fairness we went through the process and let them work the figures out,
against beat best choose effective expected obviously possible team test third
We expected McAlister to play against us, because he was so effective in the third Test against the Lions. They obviously have a plan. We must just choose the best possible team to beat the All Blacks.
barriers changed church cultural far ideas mission name names people raise raised reach
We changed the name because of the mission of our church to reach out to people who are un-churched, those who are far away from God. Sometimes denominational names can raise barriers for people. So many people here were not raised in the cultural South, and they have pretty stereotypical ideas about what Baptists are like.
ball hold improve increase learn minute playing soccer string style trying
We are trying to improve as individuals and as a team. We have had some 5-10 minute spurts where we have been playing well, but we have not been able to string them together. With our style of play, we want to hold on to the ball longer. We have been trying to increase our soccer knowledge, where we can learn what we need to do to make the adjustments on the field.
