The atmospheric CO2 concentration is rising – mainly due to the burning of fossil fuels. It’s agreed that this build-up will, in itself, induce a long-term warming trend, superimposed on all the other complicated effects that make climate fluctuate.
Girl, Woman, Other’ by Bernadine Evaristo is so phenomenally written, following the interlinking lives and stories of women of colour navigating life mainly in the U.K. It’s so beautiful, perceptive and insightful, giving us so much to think about and changing the way we see the world and the experiences of others.
I am on Facebook, but mainly as a way to spy on my children. I find out more about them from their Facebook pages than from what they tell me.
I got kicked out of high school, went to 3 different high schools and summer school and extra night school just so I could maybe graduate and try to make it up, because I flunked pretty much my entire freshman year, mainly because I just never showed up.
I’m not really interested in clothes. Mainly, I like wearing clothes that don’t make me stand out – I tend to go for Marks & Spencer and Gap – and I do get put in the changing room at Gap, and clothes are passed to me under the changing room door.
Mainly, I’m doing my thing, and I hope people like it. I don’t say, ‘I’m going to write something radical and hope it reverberates throughout society.’ The goal is to write a solid, entertaining, engaging show.
Competitive golf is played mainly on a five-and-a-half-inch course… the space between your ears.
The idea of having different characters is really just to get the storyline across, you know? Coming from one particular character makes, to me, the story boring. I get that mainly from novels and that style of writing or movies where there’s multiple characters who carry the storyline.
I’m not mainly interested in what buildings mean as symbols or vehicles for ideas.
I think it’s mainly the language barrier and the cultural barrier, but of course also my songs, they have been very serious and melancholic, and so maybe people need to see more of my bubbly side and my personality.
The stories about the life and teachings of Jesus were mainly told in Greek, the original language of the gospels.
Acting goes back a little ways for me. I supposed I started with theater growing up. It was mainly a social outlet and it was just kind of something I did for fun. I met a lot of good friends through it, so it really kept me involved.
I am not much of a researcher as a novelist; I write mainly from experience.
I was mainly influenced by the Carter Family, Jimmie Rodgers, Loretta Lynn, Merle Haggard, and others like Bob Dylan, Johnny Cash.
When you get a bit older, life can start kicking and it was mainly the area I grew up in that began to lead me astray. I went down the wrong paths to some degree.
I’ve never been to a school reunion. Mainly because I’m still in touch with my two friends and after them, I only really liked the teachers. I’m pretty sure no one invites teachers to school reunions.
The progress of society is mainly the improvement in the condition of the workingmen of the world.
At cricket, I was mainly a bowler and tried to bat. I hit the odd four or six and then got out! In athletics, I was mainly triple jump and 200m.
I was in several school performances, mainly Shakespeare and comedic roles. I just accidentally became an actor. I totally didn’t expect this.
I have rings of many different sizes and designs, mainly hip-hop, and an extensive bracelet collection.
When I’m waiting to bat I try to watch the game and make sure I know what is going on so I am ready when I get out there but I spend a lot of time hydrating. It is very important for your performance and concentration. If it is cold I might have a coffee but mainly I am trying to stay really hydrated.
I don’t really seek out vegetarian spots… but mainly, I know how to work a menu no matter where I am.
On a personal level, I don’t exactly thrive on the idea of being known as the guy who goes topless – because I also took my shirt off on ‘American Horror Story: Coven’ – but I think in ‘The Last Kingdom,’ it’s mainly done in the right way.
I have mainly come from a theatre background, I did ‘Oliver’ here I played the Artful Dodger and I did ‘The Sound of Music.’
Women who start out as ugly ducklings don’t become beautiful swans. What they mainly become is confident ducks. They take charge of their lives.
When I was a kid, I watched mainly films on TV and pop programmes like ‘Top of the Pops.’
I watch Dragon Gate, New Japan, NXT, AEW. I love the Lucha Bros, The Young Bucks. Mainly I watch the guys in the shows that I’m on.
I went to church as a kid, but mainly for the showbiz aspect. I remember doing a solo of ‘The Little Drummer Boy’ and everyone singing the rup-a-pum-pums.
Forever, for me, it was just about trying to make it and become a known person and loved and revered in hip-hop and the culture. But then ,I even realized that that isn’t really important. What’s mainly important is just the fans and the connection that you have as a man and an artist.
Most days I struggle just to be accepted into the camp of plain old feminists. This is mainly because I am not by nature ideological and generally suspicious of people who are.
Robert Burns enriched Scottish song with his genius and is mainly responsible for the rich treasure house of song that we enjoy today. He collected folk songs, retained the melodic line, kept what words were usable and rewrote the rest. He didn’t claim ownership.
When I was a small boy, I was bullied more than most, mainly because I was a foot shorter than everyone else.
There is some sampling on my records and a lot of what I call replays, where I’d have musicians come in the studio and replay the sample from the original record. But mainly, we’d come up with our own music.
The arts community is generally dominated by liberals because if you are concerned mainly with painting or sculpture, you don’t have time to study how the world works. And if you have no understanding of economics, strategy, history and politics, then naturally you would be a liberal.
Undoubtedly, there are a number of well-developed, mainly female, stars helping Miss Taylor to hold the film industry together: Sophia Loren, Anita Ekberg, etc. But such an insistence on cheesecake smells of bankruptcy.
At present, I am mainly observing the physical motion of mountains, water, trees and flowers. One is everywhere reminded of similar movements in the human body, of similar impulses of joy and suffering in plants.
Backstage, I do my own thing and have my own spots in the locker room, so environmentally, it’s not very different for me. But the backstage environments are vastly different, but that is mainly because of the personalities.
In India, freedom has to be about equality – mainly between men and women in terms of education and work.
I have become an adjective. There is something called a Rovian-style of campaigning and it’s meant as an insult. One columnist said it consists mainly of throwing mud until it sticks. One prominent blogger described the elements of a textbook Rovian race as fear-based, smear-based and anything goes.
I do mixed martial arts, mainly kickboxing.
Every day is different when I’m home, but mainly I just surf. There’s no nightlife or shopping, so it’s pretty mellow but really nice to come back to after a trip or an event. If you’re traveling, you’re all stressed out, then you get to Kauai, and nothing matters anymore.
Mainly I study the sense of touch and what the molecules are that transduce touch. And I use mutants in the nematode Caenorhabditis elegans to look at that problem.
I write mainly on trains because when I’m at home I’ll be making YouTube videos or editing or just sitting down having a cup of tea as much as I possibly can.
I got my first tattoo when I was 19. The one on my shoulder is an eagle. I’d go to the beach, and I’d take off my shirt, and I’d almost feel self-conscious because nobody out there had tattoos except my buddies, the guys who rode motorcycles. American-made bikes, mainly.
I think a major cause of present Asian economic difficulties that mainly come from, you know, lack of market economy.
In the late 19th century, the Populists – a protest movement of mainly disaffected farmers and workers – threatened to overturn established authority.
I always enjoyed participating in artistic endeavors, and I remember in high school participating in chorus, drama and singing madrigals, mainly because they were an easy A. I loved being in plays and musicals too, but you didn’t really get credit for those.
Most challenging, mainly for me, learning how to bump, learning to trust your body and trust somebody else with your body, when we’re learning how to do bodyslams and suplexes and figuring out how to kick somebody right while making sure to protect each other. In the beginning, for me, a forward roll was pretty challenging.
All due respect and trying to be as modest as I can be, I am a dancer. But I don’t think I would be on ‘Dancing with the Stars,’ mainly because I would be too shy.
I do bits about dating but mainly about what I did and how incompetent I am, not any genuine people writing to me.
I see social media mainly just talked about as if it has just changed us technologically and in terms of data. I think it has changed absolutely everything. It has changed truth, it has changed culture. It has certainly changed the way that we relate to each other and in a very short amount of time.
