[00:01]tariff
[00:02]One explanation is geography: as countries have
[00:05]lowered their tariff barriers, the relatively greater
[00:08]importance of transport costs makes proximity matter more.
[00:14]stiff
[00:17]BuildMyLanyard.com faced stiff competition,
[00:20]according to Nathalie Baudoin, a semifinals judge and
[00:24]vice president of marketing at the Mountain Equipment
[00:27]Co-Op, an outdoor clothing and equipment company.
[00:32]sniff
[00:34]Michels said that even more advanced security
[00:37]measures, such as machines that "sniff" passengers
[00:40]for explosives or analyse swabs of their clothes and
[00:44]belongings, might not have spotted the device.
[00:50]cloak
[00:51]Berkeley, Calif., did nothing to change its rep as one
[00:54]of America's flakier places when scientists on the local
[00:59]campus of the University of California announced they'd
[01:03]invented an invisibility cloak.
[01:07]soak
[01:08]One place where children soak up A characteristics is
[01:12]school, which is, by its very nature, a highly competitive
[01:16]institution.
[01:18]oak
[01:20]Each humble drawer, too, was beautiful, with sides
[01:24]and front in deliberately contrasting woods linked by
[01:28]dovetails: light oak into rosewood, mahogany into ash.
[01:35]bully
[01:38]So maybe it's not so surprising that Europeans
[01:41]worry. Given Russia's track record of bullying its close
[01:45]neighbors, won't it eventually bully distant ones too?
