Odor is one of the major issues. The waste also has a higher nutrient level as blood is rich in protein and nitrogen and those nutrients have to be properly disposed of.

Of course, there are some problems that need attention. Most importantly, the basis for increasing domestic demand is unstable, the level of difficulty for adjusting the economic structure is increasing and the world economy is slowing.

Obviously, we feel better going into the postseason. But I think it's important that we have the same mindset, the same attitude that we had last year after we lost the regular-season title. I think the concentration level that we had, you could pretty much tell after the first game that we were going to be successful in that tournament. It had that feeling to it. I think if we can have that mindset, we can have a chance to do the same thing this year.

Obviously we'll monitor it and if we're losing really valuable, skilled players at the NHL level because those players choose to stay in Europe, that's something we'll want to take a look at,

One thing you're not aloud to do is escalate the level of force being used.

Online stock trades are $9.99 - period - no strings attached. This is only part of the value proposition, though. From trading tools to investment planning, clients can tailor the level of service that fits their needs. As we develop these new offerings, we believe we have a unique opportunity to leverage the core strengths that made us a leader with active traders and apply those to the long-term investor and advisor segments.

Online theft has changed the business model of filmmaking because the DVD market is very soft. So, more ambitious, compelling, character-driven narrative of a certain budget level isn't really a viable business model in the eyes of the studios right now.

One year, we purchased pulse rate monitors, because we teach the children early on how to monitor their heart rate. When they are really young, we show them how to put their hand on their chest and feel their heart beat, and experience their hearts beating faster or slower. As they get older, they can use the wristband heart monitor to monitor their pulse while they are exercising. The idea is that you want to get the heart rate up to a certain level when you exercise to really get an aerobic benefit from it.

On film sometimes you say you are doing that in the Patriot League, but he also had 20 something against Kansas and a big game against Syracuse. He's a high level player that just happens to be at a school that maybe doesn't get that much recognition.

No officer of the company has to sign or attest that the information in it is correct and there is no authority at the federal government level to enforce it. My best advice is if you can open and run your own business, do that instead of owning a franchise. Check out our website and see the potential problems with franchise agreement provisions and the problems that franchisees face.

No one at a senior level was willing to push Iran on diplomacy. Was there at least a chance that we could have gotten something going? Yes, there was a chance.

No one else has this specific kind of (artificial) turf. You have to up your level of concentration, because you are not going to get used to it in 90 minutes. We concentrated and strung some passes together and did well with it.

No one else knew him like the Jets did. And it's important that you hire people you know sometimes because it gives everyone in the organization a level of comfort. You know this person has the level of belief in the things you want carried out.

One of our concerns with Shields was his being in big league camp for the first time. You know, trying to push it and impress the new staff. But he has a great maturity level and aptitude. He has a good head on his shoulders. He seeks direction.

One of our goals for this race is to help raise the level of the sport in America. With Americans as the top-five riders into today's time trial and the top-five in the overall classification, the strength of U.S. riders in international cycling is evident here in California.

One of our most popular channels is 'Sirius Hits,' which plays the most popular songs in high rotation. But we have other channels, like bluegrass, where listenership isn't as high, but there's an extremely high level of satisfaction. That's the kind of service we can provide.

One of the striking things about seeing Edwards up close is the degree of raw anger he evinces in his speeches -- and the level of anger he elicits from his audiences toward the president.

One of the themes we always discuss is to be mentally tough because we know the conference is a grind. (Going into Monday) the conference was 14-1 combined in the state tournaments. It might be the best percentage of all the conferences in the state. That says a lot about the level of competition we see every night.

One of the things IBM needs to do more of is become more competitive with their hardware products. They've become very competitive in software and services. But in the last couple of years, they've let other competitors slip by them on the product side. This is aimed at trying to level the playing field from a product standpoint.

One of the things I like about the show is it redefines the idea of what it is to be a mother, which at its most basic level is to take care of a child. It doesn't mean you have to look like the ladies in the Lysol commercials.

Our overriding goal for Morgan Stanley is to be the clear leader in offering premier, innovative financial services to our clients, while delivering superior returns to our shareholders. The decisions to keep Discover, divest the aircraft leasing business and strengthen our retail business are our first steps toward achieving that goal.

Mortgage interest rates were at the highest level since the third quarter of 2003. At the same time, we've seen strong double-digit appreciation in home prices, so a modest slowing from record sales was to be expected. The good news is that home sales are being sustained at historically high levels.

More than anything, the girl finds a way to win and finds a way to get her opponent uncomfortable; I'm sure she has a way to negate power still. Sometimes, we have a difference in level between top 10 and then 10 through 20, but so far she's been playing excellent.

Monkeys don't enjoy or appreciate flavours. Experts have told us that human beings are the only beings that can appreciate food at this higher level and the only living beings that cook.

None of us can honestly grasp the level of tragedy, but on an individual basis, we deal with refugees on a daily basis, ... This is a situation where one refugee camp may have difficulty helping another refugee camp.

My doctors and trainers have advised me that my leg needs to fully recover in order for me to play at the level that I'm accustomed to playing.

My confidence level is out of this world right now. I feel every shot I put up there is going in.

My experience in Jerusalem will help me in Sacramento. I experienced basketball on a professional level from guys who were playing the game as their job. That's my approach now. Basketball is my job.

My criteria when looking for a role is that I will do anything that stands the chance of succeeding on the level it is intended to. After that, if it's a part I can do something personal with.

No one will go hungry, but the service level will be degraded. These policy changes are a result of working from an inferior, inadequate structure.

Maybe just the talent level is up a little bit, and the continuity and stability of our coaching staff is solid. Now our athletes know and understand what the coaching staff wants, and we're all in sync.

Maybe the situation has changed because I'm playing at my worst level now. I saw him many times and I think he's playing much better now.

People who are fit are the same as anyone else. The only difference is their level of commitment. If looking good and being fit was easy, everyone would do it! Most people don't want to put in the work or make the sacrifices needed in order to be fit.

Rex is a warrior. I had no doubt Rex was going to go out and play well. He proved he's a good quarterback and can play on this level in this type of game.

Nobody has seen this level of devastation for about 16 years.

No doubt the most bizarre I've ever played. I'm shocked, really. His level went from nonexistent to playing some pretty good stuff in the space of a game.

Nobody wants to kill this golden goose. I don't like the salary-cap system. There's nothing I like about it except that it's a system that both sides have been able to agree upon. But that has meant that football's been able to concentrate its energies and efforts at the union and management level on developing new revenue sources and promoting the brand with the general public.

Nobody wants to rock their own life. But, on the other hand, when your life does get rocked, it affords you a certain level of emotional honesty. It liberates you to be who you really are.

Nuclear power is not an alternative to the energy problem, neither at the European level nor at the international level.

Obviously, as a three-time state champion, he's at a level that is above anybody else. With Jimmy, I think he's really close, but a lot has to do with confidence. When he took a shot at him, he (Conroy) took him down. He needs to have a little more confidence and let it fly. Nobody expected (Bryan) Hunt to beat (Ryan) Wilson.

Obviously Chris needs games to get his match fitness level back to scratch.

Obviously Dwane's got a great comfort level with him. We felt like he really came on down the stretch of the year and into the playoffs. We kind of eyeballed him and Dwayne encouraged us to look into doing something with him.

Obviously, given the level of his dissatisfaction, you would think they would have picked up on it and maybe done something constructive with it,

Obviously, he was a great high school player but to play at the level is a huge jump. I thought there were some questions. For one thing he's not really a shooter. I knew he was quick and a good ball handler. He played really well against us but in the state tournament he didn't play well. I thought maybe they made a mistake. But obviously if he's playing as a freshman they know what they're doing.

Obviously, playing on grass should help our cause, but at the same time we know the Chileans are capable of playing at a high level on any surface, particularly when they are representing their country. We will not take them lightly.

Obviously the data today was very supportive of bonds. The unemployment report caught everyone by surprise. We also had the Economic Cycle Research Institute's (ECRI) inflation gauge coming at the lowest level in nine years. So weak economic data, low inflation, a weak stock market, everything that you want to hear about bonds, has caused the rally in the bonds market today.

Obviously the main uncertainty in the steel market is the level of production from China. It's really the key uncertainty and that will impact on decisions made by steelmakers.

Numbers have been an issue for a number of years. We have very large enrollments in boys' soccer and boys' cross country. And there are only 12 to 14 players in our top level of Pop Warner (youth football). There are not a lot of football players in our community.

NYSE is looking for acquisitions. London seems totally obvious, totally sensible and I expect them to come galloping over the hill to conclude something at around the 950p to 10 pound level in the months to come.

Now we can ensure we have the same level of care countywide.

Now we have players who are young in age, but they have experience under their belts. Something could happen at any time, they could take it to the next level. We're there, we're competing with everyone, but taking it to the next level is the thing.

Peter's a special player. He's the complete package. He's a competitive player with a high level of skill.

People were concerned that the market will start pricing in the argument that the central bank will raise interest rates to a neutral level since deflation in Japan has ended. Yields will have a bias to rise.

People were concerned that we hadn't been tested. We're tested every day in training. We train at a high level and all I want to see is the transfer of that training to game day. I don't think we get confidence from beating (No. 1) Nebraska. We get confidence in our gym.

Obviously, there's a point where you begin to level out without changes.

Obviously, the ultimate goal is to win the national championship. I think any coach of a program at this level would say that.

Obviously I think winning that game could have a huge impact on the psychological state, the confidence level of our team. That's obvious. But at the same time, we're home. We're Connecticut. Everybody think we're one of the top-10 teams in the country. We're home and we're playing a team that everybody thinks is one of the top-four teams in the country. Going into the game, yeah, we expect to win this game. That's what you're supposed to think if you're us.

Obviously, it's a great sports town, and it's a franchise that has had success at the highest level in the NHL. It's definitely a place that would be great to work.

Obviously, this is a unique and significant commitment on behalf of ownership. Grady is one of our more unique guys. The level of commitment is distinct on both sides.

Obviously those names are not at the level of the names we lost, if you look at them on paper, ... But they are fully qualified.

Obviously, we are gravely concerned and very troubled by the increased level of activity. I find it ironic and incredibly disingenuous when politicians say this is in the best interest of the children when the research says otherwise.

New Orleans was very comfortable with the risk-reward, based on his rehabilitation from the injury. Miami didn't have that same level of comfort, so New Orleans made a lot of sense for us.

New regulations would be a disaster at this point. Nanotechnology, the manipulation of matter at the level of individual atoms and molecules, offers the greatest benefits for society if left to grow through modest regulation, civilian research, and an emphasis on self-regulation and responsible professional culture.

Rich had an excellent season. He came as far as any player I've coached over his two years. He took up basketball on a competitive level when he came to Brewster. He had a desire to learn and improved dramatically.

Right now I'm trying to get to the level I was playing at last season when I should be at a level two times that. This year I'm struggling. So far I haven't been having the success I pretty much envisioned for myself over the summer. But I'm trying to be patient. It's all I can do. It's a long season.

Right now inventories are below the normal average level for this time of year.

Retinoic acid can positively reverse signs of aging on a molecular level and help rejuvenate the skin. The problem is it's irritating,

Right now, it's not about winning 50 games, 60 games, whatever. Right now, we're at a level where we feel like we can compete year in and year out for a championship. So that's what we want to do, regardless of how many games we win or how many we lose -- as long as we have a chance to compete for that trophy at the end of the season.

Right now it's up to us to maintain our level of play and stay in first place. Winning these two games this week gives us a lot more confidence because these are teams that people outside our program don't expect us to beat.

My first objective is to graduate. I definitely want to stay around the baseball field, maybe get into coaching and do it at the highest level I can.

Myles has a level head and will keep things in perspective. He comes from a great family structure. He will weigh all options.

My level of play has dropped, not out of neglect or anything. It's just that's the way it goes. I mean, golf is a weird game.

My level of respect for him just took a whole different level, to make that trip and then drive back and then practice and then play today and then fight in a rival game.

I don't know exactly what their deal is, but I can tell you if they make up their mind to do well at it, they will. In series past ... Once they win (something) they lose a little bit of interest, but they're hard at it trying to win that first one (title). ... They have a great management organization, and while they might not have as deep a level as Ford or General Motors, they've been one of the top carmakers in the world ... We're fortunate to have them, we're fortunate to have their dollars invested in our (type) of racing.

I don't have a creepy uncle, but I certainly have many, many uncles. My mom has twelve brothers and sisters, and my dad has two sisters and three brothers. Their maturity level is still hovering around fifteen when they all get together, but they're not necessarily creepy.

I have been very impressed to see how Jennifer has stepped into this role and taken it to another level and I love working with her.

I have dealt with a pretty interesting mix of young people, many of whom have never been involved in any form of politics at any level who are interested in alternatives to austerity and debt, and older people who left the Labour party, mainly over Iraq, who are coming back in.

I have gone to several races and been intrigued by the competitiveness of this sport -- the way they go out and compete each and every week. The thought of being involved in that at such a high level was exciting to both of us.

I have got a lot of kids who just believe in one another. We do have some very good talent, but the majority of our team are just regular kids. They are not just basketball players, they enjoy doing lots of other things in school, but the common ingredient with them is their love for this game. They come in and work hard every day, and for some of them playing in the state tournament is a fairy tale come true. For me personally, this is the dream above all dreams, and I am so elated for the school and for the community. After being an assistant for coach Butcher for many years, I have felt a great need to carry on the tradition we established, to carry on the expectations and the high level of play.

I have great respect for what Rob brings to the table as I've had to compete against his units twice a year for the past two years. His linebackers always played at a high level and consistently produced big plays.

I got so far and I knew that at some point I would kind of level off and have to focus on different things. I sort of feel like I'm getting to that point now: it's more patience now, and experience, and time.

I did something wrong, I was punished and I paid for it. Now I want to think about something else and not talk about it anymore. During all that time I did what I can't do when I have a match at the weekend - that is to say a lot of physical preparation. I have now played three top level matches which gave me a good indication of my form.

I'd like to win every game left. If we do that, we'll be playing at an extremely high level going into the playoffs.
