The thing that I like about magazines, paper magazines, and papers in any kind of tangible format is the surprise factor of turning the page and not necessarily knowing what you’re going to see. You’re not looking for something. You’re just experiencing something.
The best scientific way to discover if one factor influences another is to do a controlled experiment.
I think when you’re a TV presenter, you have to have a reason for doing it, and a lot of them have been around a long time and grafted for that. The reason why it works with me on ‘The Xtra Factor’ is because I was a contestant on it, and I have a relationship with the viewers at home.
I want to say sorry for abusing my position as an ‘X Factor’ winner because I owe everything to this thing.
I don’t think the people run to the polls and vote simply on the basis of identity. Yes, it is a factor, of course we all know that. It’s also ethnicity, gender, and gender identity. People do take those factors into account.
Injuries are a big factor when you’re trying to go on a championship run.
The thing is, I knew from the very first audition that I did not fit the classic ‘X Factor’ criteria.
I just think that, you know, what young actors actors and actresses have to factor into their work is all of the social media and the pressures that come from social media and the scrutiny that they’re under and so nothing goes under the radar.
I went back to ‘The X Factor’ for one reason, because I wanted to have that full circle. It’s where I started, and I went back as a presenter. And that’s what I wanted and I got that.
‘X Factor’ isn’t just about internationally recognized singers, it’s about all the rest of us. There’s a human interest story there.
In Washington, D.C., in 2006, Democrats had long since given up on the war in Iraq in terms of any tangible political support for it. The new factor was the Republicans were beginning to give up as well, and they were truly challenging the strategy and the lack of success.
Money plays an important role in football, but it is not the dominating factor. When Chelsea play a Carling Cup game in a small city, and it could result in a draw – the excitement, the spirit, the atmosphere – that’s the real beauty of football in England.
More has been screwed up on the battlefield and misunderstood in the Pentagon because of a lack of understanding of the English language than any other single factor.
What can possibly be the common factor in a Kim Jee-woon film? I think what really ties a lot of my projects together is that there is always a character that believes his life is not exactly the way he wishes it to be.
I love doing ‘X Factor,’ I absolutely love it. It has its highs and lows. Sometimes I love it more than other times. It is the best job in the world though.
I have to confess that a strong contributing factor was that I had just taken what was probably the first acid ever made, given to me by a guy called Johnny Fellows, who had just returned from America.
Some experts look at global warming, increased world temperature, as the critical tipping point that is causing a crash in coral reef health around the world. And there’s no question that it is a factor, but it’s preceded by the loss of resilience and degradation.
When we auditioned for ‘The X Factor,’ we were five individuals going into the show. That obviously means we are five solo artists in our beings, so we have our own creative ideas, of what sounds the best music-wise, because we are all artists.
I don’t watch ‘The X Factor,’ I don’t watch ‘The Voice,’ so I wouldn’t want to do them.
One factor that favors easier adjustment in EMEs is that U.S. monetary policy normalization has been and should continue to be gradual, as long as the U.S. economy evolves roughly as expected.
There is a side of the Moon which we never see, but that hidden half is as potent a factor in causing the ebb and flow of the Earth’s tide as the part of the Moon which is visible.
Yes, there are lots of individual exceptions. But no one has ever done a study about voting intention without ascertaining that the biggest determining factor is your income and your wealth.
Donald Trump has added a whole different factor that we’ve never seen before, but the audience loves it.
Weight isn’t a factor in nutritional health.
When we come up upon a wall, it matters. We have to plan around it. It’s a mitigating factor if you’re trying to enter or cross from point A to point B.
It’s hard enough to make a good song and a good recording of that song. But to try to tailor it to some outside force is just like – It’s never been a factor in what I’ve done or what the band’s done.
To me, it’s always bumpy, and to me, that’s the joy of it. That’s this game. That’s how hard it is in the NFL. Really, what you did last year or 2010, as we know, doesn’t factor.
I would say the more significant factor of my starting late is that I developed a sufficiently thick skin to be able to – just about – handle the knocks that a fledgling comedian takes.
Whenever you’re in conflict with someone, there is one factor that can make the difference between damaging your relationship and deepening it. That factor is attitude.
Having the BRCA mutation significantly increases the risk of breast cancer, but it is not always the only factor. Lifestyle choices may increase or decrease the risk of breast cancer, but that knowledge is an opportunity to empower ourselves, not to blame.
‘The X Factor’ seems to be more about building up personalities and people in tears. And it’s not a new idea. The pre-Beatles pop world was full of manufactured pop stars. The thing is that you can’t imagine any of the artists you look back at and admire ever going on ‘The X Factor.’
If I wanted to be a professional baseball player at some point, I knew I would have to do the jump ASAP because unfortunately age is a huge factor.
When I got a call about ‘Celebrity X factor’ I thought wow, what an opportunity. It felt like everything had been leaning towards that point.
White Americans have the option of not having to think about race on a daily basis. People of color don’t. Race is a major deciding factor in their lives and the histories of their families.
That may be a factor because we are the older show; we have been on the air for a while. Is it our day? Is it time to hang it up? But it seems that the show still continues, and we still enjoy being here. And that’s a very important element.
Boundaries are actually the main factor in space, just as the present, another boundary, is the main factor in time.
Can you believe approximately 17 percent of American children ages 2 to 19 years are obese? How about this fact: approximately 60 percent of overweight children ages 5 to 10 already have at least one risk factor for heart disease? We are all to blame for this – parents, schools, kids – all of us.
In my opinion, lyrics are a paramount factor and will always be.
Compromise is not such ignoble and deplorable a thing as we generally think. It is rather an indispensable factor in the political strategy. Any nation that rises against the oppressors is bound to fail in the beginning and to gain partial reforms during the medieval period of its struggle through compromises.
It would have been easy for me to bring out a real cheesy pop song, but ‘Please Don’t Let Me Go’ isn’t your typical ‘X Factor’ single, and it’s a grower, not a shower.
I feel a very important factor to our longevity is that, over the years, we have managed to create our own unique identity and aesthetics.
I would never suggest that the geography or visual environment of the film is more important than what’s going on with the people, but it’s a major factor in getting the right tone. Certainly, it influences the actors tremendously.
Television is now the dominant factor in the lives of too many American children.
The key factor in the vodka category is smoothness, and smoothness is what our vodka has.
The range of choice open to the individual is not the decisive factor in determining the degree of human freedom, but what can be chosen and what is chosen by the individual.
When I left Barcelona, staying in Spain was an important factor in my decision to join Madrid. I did not have to change country or learn a new language, adopt a different sort of lifestyle, and so on.
Every race I’ve been in, I calculated race into the equation. If you’re in America, you calculate it into the equation. It is a factor. I never make it an issue. I don’t run the campaign wearing it on my sleeve, but I don’t run away from it, either.
I have always felt that I was the biggest risk factor and the biggest bet for ‘Befikre’ because everyone else in the team had achieved something and have already proven their worth in their respective fields.
Well, first of all the defensive three-seconds rule doesn’t allow you to play a true zone like you would in international ball and college. Another key factor is training. It is a very different defense to coach, in a pure sense. Not many coaches in the NBA have focused on that, they’re largely man-focused.
Both Presidents George Bush and Barack Obama pursued policies of regime change after 9/11 – with Bush removing al-Qaida’s safe haven in Afghanistan and the sadistic anti-American dictator Saddam Hussein in Iraq – but Obama took it a step further and disregarded regional stability as a guiding factor for U.S. policy.
