This budget may be the first sign that we're about to get a prime minister who acts on climate change instead of just talking about it. Many of these measures will make the difference if properly implemented.

It's bad enough when an individual has data stolen from them by a virus, but a police force being the victim is a real cause for concern.

It might be better. Who knows? We didn't want to lose (McDermott), but everybody acts like we can't move forward, and that's absolutely wrong.

It just felt to me like it was the perfect kind of match for this place.

It's one thing to express an idea or such, but when you commit acts of violence in support of that activity, that's where our interest comes in.

Then, who really is this I? Fire burns and also brightens. It burns things by heat and brightens them by the light it sheds. Fire is different from the things it acts upon.

It's so great to be honoured by your country in this way. It sends a message that if you sacrifice and have courage and commitment, you can have a positive impact in your society.

Each time a man stands for an ideal, or acts to improve the lot of others, or strikes out against injustice, he sends a tiny ripple of hope, and crossing each other from a million different centers of energy and daring, those ripples build a current which can sweep down the mightiest walls of oppression and resistance.

It's great that kids like Stevie are contributing. He certainly acts like he belongs here.

It's disappointing that neither skyrocketing gas prices nor obscene oil company profits can break the bond between Bush Republicans and Big Oil.

Now it is finally time the Republican Congress acts to provide relief and to reduce our addiction to oil.

It's very sad. It's very sad, ... At the very beginning I think this is a story about a man (trying to) carry on his life after he broke up with the woman he loves. And he tries to change.

He thinks he's changed entirely, he sees things, he acts differently, but deep down inside him I think he still lingers with the past and that's sad.

These older acts are the gravy train, but someday that train is not going to run anymore, and no one really knows what to do when they're gone. Of the young acts, you have someone like Coldplay who does quite well, but where will it be in 10 years? That's hard to say.

Nothing more manifestly distinguishes the Anglo-Saxon than his intense and persistent energy, and he is developing in the United States an energy which, in eager activity and effectiveness, is peculiarly American. This is due partly to the fact that Americans are much better fed than Europeans, and partly to the undeveloped resources of a new country, but more largely to our climate, which acts as a constant stimulus.

Not only has the Iraqi government failed to provide minimal protection for its citizens, it has actively pursued a policy of rounding up and torturing innocent men and women.

I never saw any of man's baser acts of inhumanity to man. I never saw screaming 'witches' burned at the stake, Christians tossed to starving lions, maidens pushed over the edge of active volcanoes. I never even saw a man going to the electric chair. But until I do, watching Ben Hogan walk up to a five-foot putt is my idea of cruel and inhuman punishment, only a Hitler would enjoy.

In others, detainees indicated that they had cooperated with U.S. forces, which could be held against them by individuals in their home countries.

I probably write 10 things to every one that I want to use. It's easy for me to write something that's so poppy that it's wrong for me. If I was 22 years old... it's easy for me to write something that's less mature than I am or ought to be. I'm looking for something that acts my age.

'Intermediary liability' means that the intermediary, a service that acts as 'intermediate' conduit for the transmission or publication of information, is held liable or legally responsible for everything its users do.
