Putting a facility packed with radioactive material at Hawai'i's main airport, in the middle of urban Honolulu, and in a tsunami evacuation zone is almost asking for a natural disaster, air crash or terrorist attack.

Linda Manning

We actually sat together, the four of us, and talked a little bit about, generally speaking, the kind of threats that occur to officers of the court, in situations like this.

Peter Tatchell

Enterprises have been completely blind to their users' SSL traffic. Companies would like to have the same level of visibility and control of SSL traffic as they do with non-encrypted traffic.

Sharon Treat

There's new energy to harness, new jobs to be created, new schools to build, and threats to meet, alliances to repair. The road ahead will be long. Our climb will be steep.

There will be setbacks and false.

Barack Obama

The Registered Traveler Program is a significant step forward in the effort to balance aviation security and traveler convenience.

Tom Newton

Land disturbance and fragmented habitat represent the greatest threats to the majority of these birds, and the golden-cheeked warbler is no different.

Betsy Loyless

I believe there are already laws that protect me. If those that threatened me carried out their threats, the laws would protect me.

Gayle Ruzicka

Why are the numbers so high today? IM is really growing in terms of use. Because of the popularity, it's a more attractive target to hackers and virus writers. The specific number of threats is not huge, but it's much more than the year before. So the percentage ends up being quite large.

Debby Fry Wilson

Higher oil prices continue to pose threats to the stock market. Weaker consumer sentiment raises concern about a slowdown in the U.S. economy.

Choi Chang Hoon

Financially-motivated attacks have reached an unprecedented rate. There's an entirely new economy focused on the bartering and purchasing of confidential information. And with the higher stakes, we're seeing professional caliber efforts going into today's threats.

Oliver Friedrichs

I do think that long-term, over a five-to-10-year period (cell phone radios) are very real threats.

Kit Spring

Technology is one of the biggest threats to our intelligence systems and one of the biggest opportunities.

Amit Yoran

This was a hard decision but a stand we had to take to put an end to these continued strikes and threats of strikes. And the outcome is what we all wanted.

Cassandra Phelps

They are trying to foil our plans by issuing threats and imposing bans. But we are not cowards.

Abdur Razzak

[The US Space Command has a responsibility to accessing military threats.] We understand that jamming has gone on and other things have occurred, and we watch that very closely, ... If somebody is trying to use space against us, we could interrupt, in a reversible kind of way, those kind of capabilities as needed and as directed by US policy.

Lance Lord

Organizations of all sizes need to understand that the nature of IM-borne threats is substantially different than the threats that enter a network through email. A tool that protects against email threats is critical, but won't provide adequate protection against the growing array of threats that enter networks through IM clients.

Michael Osterman

We got over 800 negative e-mails; it was really miserable, ... There were threats saying they would come to our campgrounds, plug up our toilets and set our garbage Dumpsters on fire.

Sharon Weber

I think the reason most papers haven't run this is fear for their physical safety. And for that reason if no other, they should run the images to show they will not be intimidated by threats of violence.

Tim Marchman

No death threats while I was in Korea nor leading up to the competition. Actually, a very high-ranking Korean speed-skating official was telling me that I may have sparked a fan club! How cool is that?

Apolo Ohno

These vessels will now be better equipped to deal with border incursions and other threats at sea.

Chris Ellison

Our discussions have been reasonable. There have been no wild or outlandish threats made.

Richard Mclaren

Traditionally, news organizations are very careful about reporting bomb threats. We don't want to prompt copycats who might see the story and seek attention by duplicating the bomb threats or to give any notoriety to the person who was calling in those bomb threats.

Bob Steele

Among the best traitors Ireland has ever had, Mother Church ranks at the very top, a massive obstacle in the path to equality and freedom. She has been a force for conservatism... to ward off threats to her own security and influence.

Bernadette Devlin

The Egyptian authorities have been tolerating the sit-in strike for the past three months because, just like us, they wanted a peaceful solution. But at a certain point the situation became an issue of public disorder. There were serious health threats.

Astrid Van Genderen Stort

We have worked incredibly well with the U.S. [border officials] on sharing information and any possible threats.

Mark Butler

The Palestinians are expecting the new administration in Washington to take seriously the threats of the Sharon agenda.

Mahdi Abdel Hadi

Americans were inspired by the courage of Iraq citizens as they defied threats to there own personal safety and overwhelmingly participated in their nation's elections, and we are now seeing how their courage is inspiring change in Lebanon and elsewhere in the region.

Todd Akin

I made the comment that this isn't the 60s and 70s. The universities want to be helpful. We understand the threats to the country and, unlike in the past, there is a real opportunity for cooperation that is beneficial to both sides.
