The general hospital right next door emerged largely unscathed.

In its indiscriminate attacks international terrorism had left no region unscathed and did not respect race, religion or ethnicity.

That I am someone who has drunk, drank, drunk of the bitter dregs of near disaster in childhood and emerged not just unscathed but strengthened.

We stand together on the front lines, in word and deed, to eradicate that scourge, which has afflicted the entire international community and left no one unscathed.

But, either way, the bipolar political system to which Italians were getting accustomed is unlikely to survive unscathed. The left right divide will become easier for opportunistic politicians to cross, and perhaps a new centrist party will emerge.

The fundamental problem was premature capital market liberalization. It is therefore ironic to see the US Treasury Secretary once again pushing for capital market liberalization in India one of the two major developing countries (along with China) to emerge unscathed from the 1997 crisis.

Alberto Agudelo, who emerged from the attack unscathed, had reportedly taken an active part in the establishment of municipal human rights committees in the department of Putumayo, and had been a council representative of the Movimiento Independiente de las Juntas de Acción Comunal (27 March 1996)

Capital controls enabled China to emerge from the Asian financial crisis of 1997 1998 largely unscathed, even though its financial system was at least as fragile as those of the affected countries.

The facility s robust design is similar to that of the Kashiwazaki Kariwa nuclear power plant, the world s largest, in Niigata, which was unscathed by the Chūetsu offshore earthquake (measuring 6.8 on the Richter scale) in July 2007. Fukushima Daiichi withstood the earthquake, but no one considered the possibility of ten meter high tsunami waves hitting a nuclear plant.

One piece of bubble wisdom that has escaped relatively unscathed, however, is the assumption that the BRIC countries Brazil, Russia, India, and China will increasingly call the economic tune in years to come.
