The magnetic needle always ordsprog
 A compass in the north is worthless. You got true north and magnetic north and the needle just goes round in circles. It's all dead reckoning, and he knew every point of land - he'd been there so many times. |
| It isn't lost on me that sailing with guys like Iain is pretty awesome, ... Ben's sailing with me in Sardinia. It's good that we all get on; it's a big contrast to British sailing 20 years ago. |
| The ship is a wonderful resource but extremely expensive and we want to ensure the long-term future of the vessel as an actual sailing ship. |
| [Dr Nelson said if the country lost sight of what Simpson and his donkey represented,] then we will lose the direction of the country ... He represents everything at the heart of what it means to be Australian. |
| It's something I'm going to think about for a long, long time. I lost the championship by 35 points and we lost over 50 (points) with the loose wheel. |
| What a little vessel of sadness we are, sailing in this muffled silence through the autumn dark. |
| The magnetic data storage industry is moving toward patterned magnetic media, where information is stored in small magnetic 'islands' similar to the ones we have been studying. It appears quite feasible that magnetic memory systems could be endowed with logic capability, thus merging memory and logic. |
| I think he did lose his footing somewhere in the turn because as I was coming around the turn I saw that I had to hold out a little bit for the distance and all of a sudden it was very long. Something happened just as I went to commit to the fence. It's been a long circuit and there's not a lot of grass out there so he had a little slip and under the lights it's a little spooky and he lost a little heart out there. But he's never done that before. |
| [The most challenging sailing was in the Southern Ocean. But the leadership challenge was comparatively easy.] It was muck and bullets -- battleground leadership, ... These guys were hanging on by their fingernails. As long as I was technically competent, leading was pretty straightforward. |
| It's really interesting how a tiny little shell from a sea creature living millions of years ago can tell us so much about past ocean conditions. We can tell approximately what the temperature was at the bottom of the ocean. We also have an approximate measure of the nutrient content of the water the creature lived in. And, when we have information from several locations, we can tell the direction of ocean currents. |
| You can think of this structure as a giant, magnetic Slinky wrapped around a long, finger-like interstellar cloud. The magnetic field lines are like stretched rubber bands; the tension squeezes the cloud into its filamentary shape. |

| We turned the ball over 26 times yet I think our heart was shown on enough occasions. When you're down 10 points or down seven points with something to go, you need to call upon the reserves. There's something inside you that won't let you lose. |
