Lt. Chis Burchell

This is not just about the film industry: whether you're talking about the pharmaceutical industry, the information technology industry or filmed entertainment, the protection of intellectual property is crucial. If we can't build businesses around ideas, and feel comfortable that we have the right to those ideas, then our entire business is threatened.

Darcy Antonellis

When Congressman DeLay gets on the House floor today and accuses us of being in the White House's pocket, it's a bold face lie ... we're not part of the spin machine. What they're threatened by is our independence.

David Talbot

I was scared to death of that boy, ... He even threatened to kill me.

Livia Landry

A bigger part of Marion County is in that threatened area. There will be less groundwater that the district will provide permits for.

Tom Smart

Even when they're threatened, they can come through.

Tom Kurkjian

Chip Dickinson

They never really threatened us. It was nice to beat them because they embarrassed us last year on senior night and that kind of stuck in my craw.

Jerry Woolsey

We expect witnesses and jurors to come in and do their duties as citizens – do their job and do justice. And when they are threatened or harassed they are less likely to do that. It erodes everything we're trying to do as prosecutors.

Phil Sorensen

That's going to be the big stumbling block. The Coastal Commission has expressed resistance to any armoring. But when you compare it to other armoring that's been approved... we want to do armoring to protect private property so we can manage a habitat better to protect two (threatened) species, steelhead trout and red-legged frogs.

Frank Emerson

Berkeley Breathed

I think we have shown that we are a good team and we have threatened a result like that for some time now. Stuart McLaren coming into the side added that extra bit of steel and maturity and I think we have benefited from that.

Michael Baird

I never felt threatened and I walked around the entire place, ... I was talking to people, administering first aid. But people were ready to get out of there. The conditions were horrid and horrible. The stench was unbearable. If we had electricity, it would have been so much better.

Eric Kraus

As you might expect, there are some public school administrators who don't quite know what to do when dozens-even hundreds-of their students show up for class wearing pro-life messages.

This might be a time to be a little cautious.

Ed Keon

Microsoft has always felt threatened by the Internet, because it is an open world. It sees it as essential to extend its presence there and move chunks of it into a proprietary world.

There wasn't really litigation threatened. We sent them (the Scouts) a letter saying that we'd noticed the number of these arrangements with government agencies and we were concerned. And they've responded by informing us they will go ahead and alter those arrangements on their own.

Ed Yohnka

You could call 'show biz,' filmmaking, the original arena for outsourcing because ever since I've been making movies, Hollywood has been threatened with outsourcing, be it Italy, be it Australia, New Zealand, and certainly, Canada.

Ed Asner

With only around 1,200 pairs confined to this small island in the Indian Ocean, the Christmas Island frigate bird is one of the worlds most threatened seabirds. This new satellite tracking data will add enormously to our knowledge of the species.
