A gang of armed youths ... vandalised pipeline along Azuzuama axis of the Tebidaba-Brass pipeline with dynamite and ignited fire on the line. – Desmond AguRate it:
A private organisation may not have sufficient apple or other essential ingredients in its monthly stock, but its top brass will only talk about individual’s performance pie i.e. achievement vs target of apple-pie sales in the meeting. – Anuj SomanyRate it:
An organisation requires a huge quantity of investments on advertisements & publicity only when its goods or services lack good quality and/or its top brass do not have good leadership capability. – Anuj SomanyRate it:
Before addressing the concern of the private organization whose top brass says that there are not much employable grads, just show a private sector employer that genuinely values ever any talented employee. – Anuj SomanyRate it:
Brass bands are all very well in their place - outdoors and several miles away. – Sir Thomas BeechamRate it:
Envy is a vice that would pose a man to tell what it should be liked for. Other vices we assume for that we falsely suppose they bring us either pleasure, profit, or honour. But in envy who is it can find any of these? Instead of pleasure, we vex and gall ourselves. Like cankered brass, it only eats itself, nay, discolours and renders it noisome. When some one told Agis that those of his neighbour?s family did envy him, ?Why, then,? says he, ?they have a double vexation?one, with their own evil, the other, at my prosperity.? – FelthamRate it:
He's not a brass polished politician, not a walking mannequin... A lot of candidates, it's like they have multiple personality disorder, rand is very consistent. – Anthony NeutoutRate it:
I have an issue when the father-in-law is a wealthy Chinaperson. There's a lot of connections to some of the brass, if you will, in China. – Don BlankenshipRate it:
I used metal picks -- they’re brass and copper -- which I always held in my mouth, in the exact place where I got the tongue cancer, plus, I basically live in a recording studio that’s filled with electromagnetic energy. So that’s one theory. I mean, I was smoking and doing a lot of drugs and a lot of everything. But at the same time, my lungs are totally clear. This is just my own theory, but the doctors say it’s possible. – Ethan Miller/Getty ImagesRate it:
If we work upon marble, it will perish if we work upon brass, time will efface it if we rear temples, they will crumble into dust but if we work upon immortal minds and instill into them just principles, we are then engraving that upon tablets which no time will efface, but will brighten and brighten to all eternity. – Daniel WebsterRate it:
If you make 80 decibels the limit in the French Quarter, you're never going to realistically have a brass band that can perform. – Ethan EllestadRate it:
In religion and politics people's beliefs and convictions are in almost every case gotten at second-hand, and without examination, from authorities who have not themselves examined the questions at issue but have taken them at second-hand from other non-examiners, whose opinions about them were not worth a brass farthing. – Mark TwainRate it:
It is neither the duffer nor the mediocre ,but the talented employees who are always sincere & diligent suffer the most because of the sycophancy work-culture being nurtured by the top brass in the private organization. – Anuj SomanyRate it:
It's hard to imagine the commitment to this fantasy simply falling away of its own accord — certainly not when President Trump is fueling it every day, it's possible that the Fox News brass eventually will get people like Sean Hannity to acknowledge reality after January 20th. But I wouldn't bet on it. And those who work for fringier outlets will never drop this, at least not until something even more compelling comes along. So, unfortunately, you have millions of Americans thoroughly convinced — forever — that Biden is an illegitimate president. Maybe they don't take to the streets over it but that's still a very destructive force in our society and politics. It's really distressing to contemplate but at the moment, I don't know of any way out. – Julian ZelizerRate it:
It’s a very old plane, but definitely one of the most capable, air Force has been moving toward multi-mission aircraft, but when Air Force comes to this particular mission this plane is unrivaled in Air Force ability. There is no weapon in our arsenal that offers more effective close-air support to American ground troops serving in harms way than the A-10 aircraft, - Sen. John McCain, R-Ariz. First designated for retirement in 2011, a planning document the Air Force published in mid-February reveals that 2022 is the flying branch's newest deadline for the last A-10 flight. The extension was announced by Secretary of Defense Ash Carter during a preview of the Pentagon’s budget at the Economic Club of Washington, D.C. according to the Arizona Daily Star. The venerable plane, first built for destroying Soviet tanks, has been on the chopping block since the sequester of 2011 mandated steep cuts in the Pentagon budget. Although the planes haven't been built in more than 30 years, the Department of Defense believes it can save maintenance costs by phasing them out. Air Force brass believes newer, faster aircraft like the F-16, F-15E, and, eventually, Lockheed Martin’s F-35 can do a better job of the Warthog’s mission of providing close air support to soldiers on the ground. But the Pentagon disagrees and has pushed back, leading to Air Force brass to extend the end date for a phase out. The plane has survived year-to-year, with powerful lawmakers such as Senate Armed Services Committee Chairman John McCain, R-Ariz., fighting to keep it alive. – Omare LamraniRate it:
More often than not, the sycophants easily get high incentive with promotion whereas an intelligent or truly deserving person is given merely five to ten preaching reasons by the top brass as why he could not get any salary hike & next upper position in the private sector organization. – Anuj SomanyRate it:
No one should be under any illusion that it’s as simple as moving a brass plate from one city to another. It is far more complex than that and involves local, regional and global regulatory frameworks, costs and the future strategic shape of HSBC. – Hugh YoungRate it:
Perry Brass is a pioneer of gay literature," ForeWord Magazine – Perry BrassRate it:
Simplicity is the end, and not the beginning, of design, we developed clean and uncluttered interiors, weaving in ancient metal jaalis screens, antique brass embossing, block printed fabrics and hand-picked artifacts. – Sandeep KhandelwalRate it:
The company's business has never doomed because of ground force or even of middle cadre people but because of top brass only. – Anuj SomanyRate it:
The lustre of a virtuous character cannot be defaced, nor can the vices of a vicious man ever become lucid. A jewel preserves its lustre, though trodden in the mud, but a brass pot, though placed upon the head, is brass still. – PanchatantraRate it:
The top brass at VW group and Audi are so preoccupied with the diesel issue that the company's management is lastingly distracted. – Christian StrengerRate it:
This is the country's last chance, i am mature. I'm ready, with a plan, with the party's top brass and a united parliamentary group, to pull the country out of the crisis. – Vangelis MeimarakisRate it:
This should tell you all you need to know about Cooper and Senate Democrats’ motives, they aren’t interested in moving past this issue or protecting the privacy and safety of North Carolina families. They’re brass-knuckled politicians who want to wage a nasty culture war with divisive issues, so they can keep filling their campaign coffers with cash from fringe liberal activists. – Phil BergerRate it:
