In an often luxury-filled environment, there used to be somewhat of a stigma surrounding wearing mid-tier brands, but it’s now more of a flex to say your low-rise cargo pants are from J.

The authors show that the effect of warming on home runs is less for indoor stadiums and night games, making a somewhat controlled experiment, there may have been other changes to gameplay or equipment which could have also affected trends in home runs, but one might not expect those things to differ between indoor and outdoor stadiums or night versus day games. – Ethan Coffel	Found on CNN 1 year ago

Peter Obi’s performance in Lagos is unlikely to translate across the country, looking at his performance in the other south west states, the Lagos win reinforces the view that the Obidient movement is still somewhat concentrated among a higher economic class.. Elections in Nigeria are still won in rural areas and the data so far suggests that … Peter Obi still faces an uphill task to secure the required votes in critical states. – Adu Ayeni	Found on CNN 1 year ago
The very idea the senator from Florida wants to put Social Security and Medicare on the chopping block every five years I find to be somewhat outrageous. So outrageous that you might not even believe it. – Joe Biden	Found on CNN 1 year ago

China doesn't really have any other large powerful partners in the way that United States has many European and Indo-Pacific allies that United States can rely on. So Russia is by far the most powerful state that is somewhat closely aligned with China, i think that is something Beijing worries about -- that Russia will overextend itself and it could undermine United States collective efforts to shape the world order. – Brian Hart	Found on CNN 1 year ago
Scott Perry's telephone is maybe for me an even more extreme example than President Trump, they pick a member of Congress somewhat obscure, perhaps less famous than, say, Jim Jordan or Kevin McCarthy or Jim Banks. And they go and strip him of a cell phone under criminal process a day after they've conducted an unprecedented raid on the former president of the United States over, as far as anybody can tell, kind of weak tea allegations or issues about the Presidential Records Act. – Dan Bishop	Found on FOX News 1 year ago
I can't imagine turning your back on the organization that gave you the platform to be who you are, at the same time, I do understand a guy who doesn't think he can play well enough anymore going. But I just have a tough time. After playing the tour for so long, turning your back on an organization and actually being somewhat detrimental to it. But I get it. I get it. It's money. – Curtis Strange	Found on FOX News 1 year ago
I was happy that we were able to achieve what I think both Dean and A.G. really wanted to achieve, which was a really sort of intentional transition process that allowed me, but also a team of people who will now move into fresh positions in newsroom leadership, to really have time to work closely together, so many transitions in the past, in fact the majority of them, have taken place in a somewhat herky-jerky or unexpected way, where something happens, somebody departs suddenly, someone is dismissed from the job. – Jeremy Barr	Found on CNN 1 year ago
I’m just waiting on some more surgery on my neck, i can’t walk properly these days. I have physical therapy every morning. I am somewhat better, but nowhere near as much as I want to be to go back on the road. – Greg Doherty	Found on FOX News 1 year ago

Although the effects appear to be robust, this is a single study and the effects are somewhat small, amounting to a difference in one or two ideas between the groups. How much impact this has would depend on the company : It could range from a trivial difference to a massive compounding effect, i wouldn't want to see a company double their in-person meetings hoping to improve their innovation, if this also means doubling the commute time resulting in less happy -- and perhaps less creative -- employees. – Jay Olson	Found on CNN 1 year ago

Let me remind us that we didn't get to understand influenza in two years. It's taken years to get to a uniform -- somewhat still imperfect but also useful -- process for what we do with flu, we need to remind ourselves and step back that we are very new in this pandemic, and we don't have the answers. – Oveta Fuller	Found on CNN 2 years ago
I do think it more likely that the bad news on inflation is more transitory than the good news on jobs, and if you went back two years ago and offered me the choice of whether to risk somewhat overheating the economy, as we did this time, or undershooting and creating a long, slow, tepid recovery, as we did in 2008, I would have chosen the risk of overheating. – Justin Wolfers	Found on CNN 2 years ago
