He really treated the position like he was the head of a Fortune 500 company instead of the executive director of a quasi-governmental agency. – Marc Korman	Found on CNN 1 year ago
In Spain, this structure has been allowed to develop over the years and it hasn’t been challenged, you often have an individual judge, who is linked to a local authority or a regional authority, who then sits as a quasi-judicial figure instead of a disciplinary committee or regulatory commission, which is what happens in other countries. Vinicius Junior was racially by Barcelona fans during a match against Barcelona on October 24, 2021. David Ramos/Getty Images. – Piara Powar	Found on CNN 1 year ago
The green agenda is a kind of cult-like, quasi-religious movement, they will go as long as governments push that agenda and there's no indication in Europe or in the U.S. currently, that this is going to go away. – Benny Peiser	Found on FOX News 1 year ago
The occupiers will try to pull the occupied territories into a single quasi-state structure and pit it against independent Ukraine. – Kyrylo Budanov	Found on FOX News 2 years ago
I'm representing the handful of people who are either in custody right now or been released from custody, and then we are going to be representing them in court, they’ve been pursued by the government and accused of crimes or a quasi-criminal offenses. And my job is to now come in here and defend them of those charges. And then there's sort of the second category of the people who might not have been charged with anything but were mistreated by the police in a way that was contrary to the code of conduct. – David Anber	Found on FOX News 2 years ago
Speaking of minor and full incursions or full invasion, you can not be half-aggressive. You're either aggressive or you're not aggressive, we should not give Putin the slightest chance to play with quasi-aggression or small incursion operations. This aggression was there since 2014. This is the fact. – Dmytro Kuleba	Found on CNN 2 years ago
The Palestinian Authority and Palestinian Authority supporters have proven willing, even eager, to destroy the physical remains of thousands of years of Judeo-Christian culture in an attempt to make way for a fictitious quasi-historical narrative that supports their political agenda. – Naomi Kahn	Found on FOX News 2 years ago
They say there's no honor among thieves. You would still get, I think, good leads, if [ informants ] can do State Department anonymously and they get paid anonymously, even if they're quasi state-sponsored, they might just do State Department. Because money's still king. – Chris Painter	Found on CNN 2 years ago

It is curious that people tend to regard government as a quasi-divine, selfless, Santa Claus organization. Government was constructed neither for ability nor for the exercise of loving care; government was built for the use of force and for necessarily demagogic appeals for votes. If individuals do not know their own interests in many cases, they are free to turn to private experts for guidance. It is absurd to say that they will be served better by a coercive, demagogic apparatus. – Murray N. Rothbard	added by Normando 3 years ago
It's not a medical document, it's a quasi-legal document. – Liz Salmi	Found on CNN 3 years ago
Wall Street seems to have some concerns about Guzman's lack of experience in politics and 'heterodox' economic views. I think these views are misplaced, as far as experience, Guzman has been involved in sovereign and quasi-sovereign situations. And his views on growth rather than austerity led recoveries are spot on. – Hans Humes	Found on Reuters 4 years ago
Basics of Macro-systems' Behavior Prediction 1 .The Macro-systems with their sometimes stochastic behavior may be (good) indicators of the dispersal of information from a holistic standpoint as well as [to be discussed later on] from a regionally molecular anisotropic zone. 2. The data scattering as for systems with quasi-vector behavior on liquids, on gases, and amongst solids, when observed from an epi-phenomenological perspective versus a phenomenological one, can show that a number of classical views on mechanistic behavior of Macro-systems may be substituted with some “machinic” view.¬ 3. The abandonment of the purely mechanistic view of interfacial forces and the adoption of thermodynamic and probabilistic concepts such as free energy and entropy have been two of the most important steps towards getting out of the worn-out mechanistic notions into more abstract conceptualization of information dispersal, working instead of causality. 4. Comparison also has to be made between hermeneutics of the notion of entropic forces within and without the framework of established thermodynamics. The very word “force” is itself a bit too collocated with entropy already. What we are after is to make it next of kin to ideas of data, information, topology of data, and mereology of stochasticity. 5. The physico-chemical potentiality inside a variety of equilibrium states can be used as a platform for anisotropic configurations whereby not only the entropy of confinement, but also the entropy of dispersal find their true meaning. 6. Within contexts of classical accumulation and energy-growth models, the verifiability of any anisotropic reversal is also demonstrable, if not by means of a set of axioms, at least by multiplicities of interfacial behavior in which experimental data find their mereotopological ratios one in the neighborhood of the other (considering first, for the sake of simplicity, our state spaces to be of metric nature). 7. Thus, there remains the reciprocity of interfacial tensions calculations where surface tension gives rise to internal polarization of those data systems by which we should like to derive either axiomatic or multiple manifoldic regionalization of PREDICTION. 8. This, with a number of Chaotic and Strange-Attractors modifications, can potentially be applied even to the whole matrix of the Universe. 9. Most of the literature on systems (information) entropy regard mesoscopic level as THE one with highest aptitude for (physicalistic) data analysis. However, there are clues to indicate that some of the main streams of structuration and dynamics are EITHER in common amongst microscopic, mesoscopic, and macroscopic systems OR holistic patterns of the said structurations and dynamics can be derived one from the other two. For example, we shall show later—in the course of the unfolding of present notions—that density functional theory (DFT) which has become the physicists’ methodology for describing solids’ electronic structure, can also be extended to other methods or systems. Few-atom systems can implicate the already explicated order of, say, biomolecules if rigorous analyses are carried out over the transition phases (translational data mappings). 10. The level of likelihood of information dispersal in any nano- and pico-systems with/without (full) attachment to and/or dependence upon chemical energy exchange, relates to dynamics of differentials of those multiplicities of tubing interconnector manifolds which potentially have the capacity to harness thermal energy. This spells that consumption of chemical energy does not necessarily always act against the infusion of energy. Here, delineation has to be made over the minutiae of the differences between Micro- and Macro-systems. Any movement of lines of demarcation throughout the said systems over the issue of (non-)interdependency of data mereotopology on chemical energy exchange, may be predicted if classical nucleation and growth theories give their place to an even more rigorous science of Differences. Repetition of (observation) of such Differences makes it possible to see through some of the most “macro” levels of systematicity [we have already run some simulations of micro-spaces’ state mappings for purposes of clarifying how many of the plasma macro jet streams inside stars or in the inter-galaxial space move. Even magneticity has turned out, with all due caution, to be comparable]. The above-said Differences actually refer to potentialities within lines of thermodynamic exchanges based upon anisotropy of information. Such exchanges nominate themselves as MO exchanges when “micro” but as some the most specific gravito-convectional currents in usages for astrology, earth science, and ecology. Thence, the science will be brought out of prognosing the detailed balance of mesoscopic (ir-)reversibility in terms of data neighborhoods connectivity. On any differentiable manifold with its own ring of universal differentiable functions, we may determine to have the “installing” of modules of Kähler spaces where demarcation could be represented by: d(a+b)=da+db, d(ab)=adb+bda, and: dλ=0(a,b∈A,λ∈k)d(a+b)=da+db,d(ab)=adb+bda,dλ=0(a,b∈A,λ∈k) Where any one module has the formalism: dbdb (b∈Ab∈A). All these having been said, again we have the problematics of still remaining within the realm of classic calculus. It is likely that for Macrosystems we may decide not to apply the classical version. – Reza Sanaye	added by noseinto2 4 years ago
If you have a broad historical sense you will understand that even if Putin says he's killing terrorists or even if China says they're fighting the Uyghur nationalists that doesn't mean they're on our side, putin is a former KGB colonel, he's a thug, he's a vicious man. He runs a country in which journalists get murdered if they disagree with the Kremlin. China is the world's last communist dictatorship. It may be running around doing quasi-capitalist things but it is a one party state and to say that we have shared interests. No Mr. Trump, we don't and we should really stick to the friends we already have. – Sebastian Gorka	Found on CNN 6 years ago
There seems to be this perpetual stream of kind of quasi-negative news surrounding some of the really big market cap stocks, like Apple particularly, and anytime you have got Apple misbehaving that tends to put a damper on the averages. – Chuck Carlson	Found on Reuters 7 years ago
If you look at Alberta relative to other quasi-sovereign credits around the world, it's in very, very good shape. – Ed Devlin	Found on Reuters 7 years ago
Legal scholars call it quasi membership. – Thierry Baudet	Found on Reuters 8 years ago
After the fall in oil prices from $100 a barrel to 50, 160 billion out of 500 did not come into the economy, it's a big figure. And at the same time our quasi-partners limited access of our banks to refinance on the European markets. – President Vladimir Putin	Found on Reuters 9 years ago
This is really good news for banks, because after the swap, these debts get quasi-state backing and the risks of default are greatly reduced. – Luo Wenbo	Found on Reuters 9 years ago
There has to be some sort of quasi-legal way to get on one, so I'm gonna keep working at it. – Bernie Leighton	Found on CNN 9 years ago
Government must guard against quasi-monopoly suppliers becoming too important to fail, and encourage competition through, for example, splitting up contracts to encourage (smaller businesses) to bid for work. – Margaret Hodge	Found on Reuters 9 years ago
It's sort of a quasi-movement that's afoot, and what we can attribute this to is the fact these things seem to happen so regularly now that the frustrations folks are feeling are leading them to plan almost in advance. – Matthew Whitaker	Found on CNN 9 years ago
In our world of big names, curiously, our true heroes tend to be anonymous. In this life of illusion and quasi-illusion, the person of solid virtues who can be admired for something more substantial than his well-knownness often proves to be the unsung hero: the teacher, the nurse, the mother, the honest cop, the hard worker at lonely, underpaid, unglamorous, unpublicized jobs. – Daniel J. Boorstin	added by anonymous 10 years ago
