We think a greater public free float will be beneficial to the share price and it is a limitation. There is no fixed view at this stage about the Crown's reaction to that.

What you are getting is a knee-jerk reaction to the drop in oil prices.

He obviously knows through his movies how to exploit terror, and he seems to be able to investigate fears that we all have and exploit them or magnify them.

Here and there, there was a communication problem, we kind of slipped up on it. It's just playing the game together and knowing the guy has got your back as far as different sets.

have great reaction time, and give their customers a lot of personal attention.

Gold has shown a knee-jerk reaction to the events over the last two days. It closed up to the better side. The commodity had been under some pressure lately, especially with a strong dollar. People tend to look at other hedges in times of inflation. Unfortunately, gold usually reacts to these kinds of crises.

His reaction is a little different. That's one of the reasons he's trying to go after some of those balls. Sometimes you have to know where your infield is.

He was just standing there -- there was no reaction from him,

He was driving home with his wife and the police pulled him over, intercepted him, put him under arrest right away. His reaction so far is one of, I guess to a certain extent shock, and secondly a reaction of sitting trying to absorb all this, wait and see.

He didn't play as badly as some of the reaction suggests. He played with a lot of physical presence but not a lot of luck.

He just wanted me to be careful and not make a decision off of a reaction and emotion or resentment or anything, ... but to make a logical, good decision.

I was looking for a reaction in the second half and I got it.

I think that's almost an immediate reaction by people who have accomplished a lot in their lives,

I think the biggest accomplishment anyone can achieve is to be the cause of something, rather than the effect. A cause makes something happen - ideally, a positive outcome, such as losing weight, finding someone amazing or getting a new job. It puts you in a position of control and confidence, rather than reaction and reluctance.

I think a lot of L.A. is something like USC - this incredible white culture living in the midst of color, and no obvious reaction to it at all. I mean, they have guards at the gate at USC - guards at the gate of a major university! And the guards chase young black boys away - I've seen it, chasing 8-year-old boys.

I think back now, it's like nothing was going through my mind. Somebody swung at me and my natural reaction was to fight back. I'm not a violent person, I'm far from it. But I also work hard for what's mine and I'm going to defend it.

I think anything you impose on players, the first reaction is going to be, 'Nah, I don't want to do that,' ... We fight a little bit about change.

I think it's very clear, and the reaction today, on TV, on radio, all of them go in the same sense, ... people say they just don't believe Paul Martin wasn't involved. If he didn't see, it's because he didn't want to see.

I was within 100 yards of the exit. Then there was this huge loud explosion right next to me. I flinched. My initial reaction was, someone shot the back window out of the car.

I think there was a knee-jerk reaction on the part of market participants who were hoping and wanting more. The Fed has shown, through its rate cuts, that it will be consistent in its support of reviving the economy, and a larger rate cut would have meant they had deeper and darker concerns.

I think the real fascination of fishing to me is certainly more than just fish. It's something to do with the whole world... of your reaction to, your response to water and things living in water, the fascination of flowing water and living things coming up out of it - to grab at you and be grabbed.

I think every writer has a book that haunts them, and on some level, every book you write is a reaction to it. 'Lolita' is that book for me. Nabokov's love of wordplay, descriptive detail, artfully complex plots, and his themes of obsession and lost love, are inspiring.

That's the way I know a real professional would do it. That's the proper to do it.
