When I got to McAfee, the channel was narrow, but with 2,000 new partners added in the past year, what will be critical in 2006 will be setting up the right care and feeding strategy for them.

past love-is thinking
I think the future is like anything else that's important. It has to be earned. If we don't earn it, we don't have a future at all.

I think that's probably what love is - a way of earning the future.
sports past men
The contrast between the familiar and the exceptional was everywhere around me. A bullock cart was drawn up beside a modern sports car at a traffic signal. A man squatted to relieve himself behind the discreet shelter of a satellite dish. An electric forklift truck was being used to unload goods from an ancient wooden cart with wooden wheels. The impression was of a plodding indefatigable and distant past that had crashed intact through barriers of time into its own future. I liked it.

broader career channels excited leaving move opportunity reflection
I am excited about this new opportunity and the much broader responsibilities I will have. At the same time, I am very excited with all that we have accomplished in channels at McAfee. My leaving is not a reflection of McAfee. It is a career move for me.
career disturbed hate instant life resulted telling turned
I am faintly disturbed that this has turned into instant uplift. You'd hate to see him turn his life into a career of telling the same story that resulted from an accident.

Nobody realizes that Mormons were the first Americans to settle Las Vegas.
adopt assistance coast community devastated directly focused gives gulf hard imagine income low miles moderate ongoing opportunity provide relief seems square start structure
Some 90,000 square miles of the Gulf Coast was devastated by the hurricane, and it seems so hard to imagine where to start any relief effort, especially in low and moderate income communities, ...
