Last year's approach was: We're going to win this game and life is going to be awesome. Then what happened? We couldn't drive the ball and our heads go in the tank.

Mirapoint's multi-layered approach to spam, including its unique MailHurdle technology, was the ideal solution for Jayman's spam problem. By blocking spam at the edge of the network, then filtering for content, Mirapoint demonstrated high accuracy rates -- ensuring executives aren't spending hours each day searching for 'lost' email. The simplicity of an appliance with robust user controls and high accuracy rates made the switch to Mirapoint nearly invisible to end-users. All they noticed was better email.

Maybe you could look at an incremental approach that does give breaks to property owners whose home value is less.

Sheriff Hunter wants to take a pro-active approach before there are any tragedies.

When you're a 2-4 football team, you go back to work and you work your way through. That's what's left of this team right now, ... What the rest of the year holds for us, we'll find out and we'll see what that means. This team will stay together, it will work and it will try to isolate the way that we can get better. That's the only approach I know how to take at this point.

Many art-worlders have an if-you-say-so approach to art: Everyone is so scared of missing out on the next hot artist that it's never clear whether people are liking work because they like it or because other people do. Everyone is keeping up with the Joneses, and there are more Joneses than ever.

Many companies I've worked with find it much too easy to be less selective in their list pulls because it's so cheap. A longer-term approach to this could increase relevance and improve results fairly significantly.

You can't take the approach of: 'we've got a faster boat so we won't push it too hard,' because that's when it comes back and bites you.

She's always cautious in letting her guard down, maybe it was the (personnel) position she was in. I notice a little softer approach now.

She's ambitious and she's become very pragmatic, but her roots are in the family vineyard and in family.

It's confusing to her.

She's come from our middle school program and she is a girl who has a lot of potential. She doesn't have a lot of speed, but she has great springs in her legs.

King Sihanouk was an absolute monarch in the 1940s and 1950s. No one could publicly disagree with anything the king said. In the throne room, even ministers had to approach the king on their hands and knees because everyone's head had to be below the level of the king's feet.

I was always brought up to be patient at the plate. That's the approach I've always taken to hitting. That may be why he said that -- I take a lot of pitches. I might strike out 100 or however many times a year, but my walks to strikeouts about evens out.

So I didn't stay long at the Los Angeles County Artists School.

Jack Dempsey was a picture book fighter. By all the sons of Mars, he looked the part. He had dark eyes, blue-black hair, and the most beautifully proportioned body ever seen in any ring. He had the wide but sharply sloping shoulders of the puncher, a slim waist, and fine, symmetrical legs. His weaving, shuffling style of approach was drama in itself and suggested the stalking of a jungle animal. He had a smoldering truculence on his face and hatred in his eyes.

He'll be a real good player for Arkansas. He's savvy and has a great cerebral approach to the game.

I don't think anybody has a better two-strike approach than Michael Young. Great kid, great student of the game. He doesn't miss time in the cage or the video room. All that has enabled him to be in the position he's in today.

For me, the best thing was being around Michael Young more than anybody. I got a chance to hit in his group and study the way he hits. I don't know how it will translate the rest of the season, but from that point on when I was hitting with him, I took that approach to keep everything crisp and clean and sharp, and things started working a little bit. Who knows, I might have found something. I'm going to keep riding it out as long as it works.

I don't think it takes a magician to see that that is just a total off-the-mark nonsensical approach to look at such an event (Cricket World Cup) solely in terms of the gate receipts. It has far broader implications.

I enjoy fashion photography and textiles, that whole aspect of it. As more of an art form, I like Proenza Schouler. Those guys are really cool because they seem to have an interesting approach to it all.

Given the success that our club has had in eight years under the guidance of Pat Quinn, this is not an easy course to take. However, our results on the ice this season fell below our expectations.
