This is definitely very bad news. Until now, we had given the company's management the benefit of the doubt with respect to certain franchise-acquisition activities. We believe that the SEC's decision indicates that, for some reason, cooperation between the company and the agency in the preceding informal investigation broke down, leading the commission to seek the greater legal powers of a formal investigation.

This is an issue which affects all political parties and I hope that the government, political parties and the Electoral Commission will be able to work together to find a solution which allows for transparency and fairness.

This is going to underscore the sense that we really have not been prepared. Everyone on the commission seems to say that we are safer, but not safe.

This is a poster child for what's wrong with the Republican Party. Here's a guy who's supposed to be a high-ranking officer of the Republican Party, yet he's paid an $809,000 commission to lobby on behalf of the Democratic governor's bond debt deal.

This is a tremendous project for Orangeburg County and the state of South Carolina. This is part of strategic initiative our County Council and Development Commission have been working on for years.

This is not an end-all motion. This gives (the Negaunee Commission on Aging) the council's support to continue their endeavor. Whatever they come up with, they still have to come back to the council for approval prior to proceeding.

This is purely an attempt to do some good theatre, commission new writing, adapt the classics and to do our own thing.

This is something the Game Commission has been doing for nearly 30 years. It's the cornerstone of our program, really.

This action by the Federal Trade Commission marks another step forward in our strategy to become more self-sufficient in ownership of generation assets relative to the needs of our customers.

Thirty states are already allowing some form of baiting, including Arkansas. I'm not ready to say that I'm a huge proponent of it, and I'm not sure anyone on the Commission is ready to bring the matter up for a vote. But some people have made some interesting arguments in favor of hunting deer over bait.

This is a military commission that is literally unbounded by the laws, Constitution and treaties of the United States.

Although I still believe we should not be closing U.S. military facilities while at war, I commend the BRAC commission for taking an independent and objective approach to this process,

They make decisions that will outlive all of us. It's not a body to be taken lightly and it needs to be populated by the most dedicated, most capable, and most principled among us. I believe the city council is obligated to the citizens we serve to fill the planning commission seats with the best persons possible.

They are bringing these things to the commission's attention, but the commission ultimately is the one (that) makes the decisions.

This order assures that the BRAC commission will not be sent to the president before the court rules on our lawsuit's request for a hearing, ... Our reason for seeking this order was to assure that the court has a full opportunity to consider our arguments before Connecticut may be threatened with the very substantial irreparable harm of this realignment.

This morning, we filed a statement of organization with the Federal Election Commission to establish the Hillary Rodham Clinton for U.S. Senate Exploratory Committee.

This means that the commission is supporting the position of the environmental groups and the communities who have claimed all along that the application was incomplete and would have subverted due process. Environmental groups and communities will celebrate this as a first victory against this unnecessary project.

This means I did not violate any ethics, but further, there was no responsible basis to think ... I hope the commission ruling will begin to repair the damage done by these unfounded charges. It's been a chapter in my family's life that we would like to put behind us.

AT&T has every incentive to make content available on the Internet to everyone. We have no incentive to restrict any content.

Keep regulation out of Internet.

A technical team from UNSCOM (the U.N. Special Commission disarming Iraq) has gone out to maintain monitoring equipment,

It is the commission that decides if Microsoft is in compliance with the ruling, not Microsoft.

The Nuclear Regulatory Commission performed the on-site portion of its evaluation of security at the Harris Plant this week. While the NRC has not completed its assessment and provided us with its conclusions, the inspectors did not identify any concerns requiring our immediate attention while on-site. Once complete, we will act immediately on any insights the agency may provide.

It's this three-body commission that decides what's going to take place.

It's the high quality of the work at Ellsworth Air Force Base. We had a quality product to sell, ...

They were open to the merits of our arguments and we need to commend them for that.

It looks like the Competition Commission wanted to show it's not a toothless institution, and took a big bite.

It's a pretty major recommendation. If the commission can push it through, it will have a major impact as roaming is a hugely profitable business. It's pretty bad news for the network operators.

It's a very odd time for us. It will be very bipolar, because we have this momentum with the commission and public support in the polls for the death penalty falling, and then we have a Texas-style execution process.

It's really kind of tragic that the work of the state tuberculosis commission and the doctors and then, hiring Cass Gilbert this major name all this energy ... and then. It's tragic. It's kind of tragic.

It's past the time for study commissions and committee meetings.

It's tough to stand up to big business. The commission really responded to the concerns of the residents.

That may raise the obvious question of whether there's an insatiable appetite on the part of the county commission to raise as much money as they can at any point in time. Even if they can't spend it now, they can build up rainy-day funds, or they can bankroll for some major project down the line. I don't think there's going to be tremendous public support for that.

It's likely that by the end of the year, the staff will recommend to the commission that the commission propose changes.

The Blue Ribbon Commission of experts has given us the most accurate estimate of the law's price tag to date. In addition to the $364 million spent to implement a counter-productive law, however, since 1993, our nation has lost the talents and expertise of 10,000 lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender patriots who want to serve our nation. When we fire Arabic translators, helicopter pilots, combat engineers and troops on the ground simply because they are gay, every American pays the price.

The African commission is coming of age. Now it is the African Union's turn to do so.

It's important in our Lottery Commission appointments that we appoint the folks with the highest moral character, ... I don't want North Carolina to be a place where the lottery turns out to be a major problem.

It is therefore premature for Microsoft to claim that the Commission has prejudiced their rights of defense.

It leaves everybody in limbo and in a state of confusion until we find out what the actual future of the commission is going to be,

It's breaking house rules which prevent a member from using travel funds for anything but their own travel. And it breaks federal Election Commission law, which requires that only campaign funds be used for campaign expenses.

New Zealand will be working closely with Australia and the United Nations High Commission for Refugees to arrange transshipment of the refugees to New Zealand,

I started in the era when Hollywood reveled in being the most cost-inefficient industry on the planet. They used to commission a hundred scripts for every one they made.

It took quite a while to get going and to secure some level of funding. To be honest, the early years I spent with the Commission were a little ad hoc and erratic. We were in our infancy. That's not ideal when you're dealing with the most powerful industry in the world in some eyes - the global movie and television business.

It took a long time getting these approvals through. We were struggling with the Coastal Commission and as the money shrank, we had to shrink the building.

It will be the Commission doing the explaining, nobody else,
