So from the first year to the fifth year, we've seen Data get closer to basically being human-but he's not.

Short term I don't think it will have a dramatic effect. But in the medium term and the long term it shakes up the equilibrium and basically plunges us into the unknown.

Scott did a fantastic job here in Enfield, was completely nonpartisan, which basically led to his downfall, which is the unfortunate part because that's what you want in a town manager.

Older people are seen basically as doddery but dear, and young people perhaps as clever but callous.

She's definitely a dominator out there as far as when she's on the court. She makes big plays for us. She can basically handle all of the spots (on the floor). When our point guard is down, she can bring the ball up the court. She can post up, and she's a great wing player.

She took basically a year and a half of my life away, and I didn't know if I would ever be able to stand up for a few years.

She was able to leave the apartment, get down to the second floor, where she summoned help. We set up basically a rescue team to hold containment, because he was still up in the apartment. So we moved in and rescued her and a couple of other neighbors who were there.

She suggested basically that a lot more was being read into that than what she was trying to express,

She's very family-oriented. She's basically a happy kid, a good kid. She's fun; she's funny; she's smart as a whip. I'm very worried about her.

She was basically going to need more time.

She was basically overshooting greens. Without those penalties she would have had a real good score.

I was lucky on 'Arli$$.' I basically got to do whatever I wanted because HBO is great for that.

I was just always struck, in the original one-act play, by the intensity of the relationship between these two women. It's a very pure and loving relationship, and those lifelong friendships are so rare and unique. . . . One of them is getting ready to make her transition, and basically she's getting all of her ducks in a row. And her best friend does not know this and is terrified of death.

I was leaving ... Cobalt nightclub, ... And on my way to my limousine ... a fight broke out way up past my limousine. We saw it, I grabbed my people, we hopped in my truck, we left. While we're driving off, we heard gun shots. We left the scene, and that is basically it.

The only thing I wanted him to do was have a plan, ... To me, being in between is worse than being wrong, because when you're in between, you're never right. So that was basically the conversation.

I would say this: What I'm basically saying here is the federal government cannot and should not be the nanny of the states in everything here.

Guys got to understand that you have to come out with intensity from the opening tip, that's basically what it was.

Guys made plays. Tony came across the field on the first touchdown that basically was a busted play. And what else can you say about Will? He's between three guys and pulls it down. When guys on the flank make plays, it makes your job a lot easier.

There are still a few things we can do to improve lap times, but basically we are pretty pleased with how the weekend's going. It's the first time back since I had the surgery on my foot, the wound has healed and I'm at 100 per cent. I'm happy to be back out on the bike fully fit.

He knew when to put the pedal to the metal if some defendant needed a harsh penalty but his first inclination was always to make someone better.

I couldn't help thinking during the past two Tests that it's been very rare that we've been well and truly outplayed for the majority of two matches in a row and found ourselves under pressure for long periods, basically suffering what other teams normally suffer against us. It's almost as if we've become those opposition teams, and England has suddenly become Australia.

I basically told him he's been a big part of our team, and we're not going to just give him away; we're not going to loan him to any team. I was honest with him. If we were offered a couple of really good, young players that would help us for a long time we'd have to seriously consider it . . . . But we're not phoning people, we're not calling teams. At this point in time, I don't anticipate moving Curtis.

I can't say enough about the Nationwide Tour. Almost everything is basically the same, just a little bit bigger. Rough is a little longer; course might be a little bit bigger.

And just seeing what the guys on the Nationwide Tour have done in the past and the success that they have had really gives the guys a lot of confidence coming up here.

I can't say enough good things about the bench. I thought early in the game we lacked energy. Guys came in and picked it up for us; picked up our defensive intensity. It was basically the same thing in the second half. We got good shots and good offensive production from our bench.
