Though Sensex has gone up, yet the price of 99.5% shares has not risen and is still trailing at bottom level. Does it not mean that Sensex is not a reflection of share price – Lakshheish M Patel	added by laksheispatel 1 year ago
The president is approaching his State of the Union in a pretty difficult political position right now, 37% approval rating, Democrats trailing badly in the midterm polling, a majority in our recent poll out this morning even question the president’s mental capacity. How is he going to turn that around on Tuesday night? And how much has his State of the Union been changed by this war in Ukraine? – George Stephanopoulos	Found on FOX News 2 years ago
I just got back and made an incredible play, i was just trying to gather the ball. Most of the time on a break like that, if you block it, they might have a player trailing to get the ball and lay it up. It worked out perfect for me. Now I ’m probably all over the internet for it. – Katelyn Mulcahy/Getty Images -RRB- His	Found on FOX News 2 years ago

What's interesting is, if you look at the rear T-38, you see these shocks kind of interact in a curve, this is because the trailing T-38 is flying in the wake of the leading aircraft, so the shocks are going to be shaped differently.

He's taken three different positions in the last eight months. Wasserman Schultz -- backed by President Obama and Democratic presidential nominee Hillary Clinton -- also disagreed with Canova’s suggestion that she did not have the support of black voters in the district. Wasserman cited in part the backing of the Congressional Black Caucus. It’s unclear whether the debate, or the Sanders-fueled donations, will make the difference for Tim Canova. The Tim Canova campaign touted polling released at the end of the Democratic National Convention showed Tim Canova trailing by 8 points, 46-38 percent. This was after she stepped down at the DNC amid a scandal over leaked emails. But Wasserman Schultz is not taking any chances, bringing in heavyweights like House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi. In some ways, the race is reminiscent of the Sanders-Clinton race. This race has a lot of parallels with the national Democratic primary in that you have a moderate candidate competing against a more progressive candidate. – Brian Fonseca	Found on FOX News 7 years ago

If it was trading at 10 times, then yes, maybe. – Khaled Abdel Majeed	Found on Reuters 7 years ago

Our birth is but a sleep and a forgetting. The soul that rises with us, our life's star, hath had elsewhere its setting, and comet from afar: not in entire forgetfulness, and not in utter nakedness, but trailing clouds of glory do we come from God, who is our home. – William Wordsworth	added by anonymous 10 years ago
