If stop-and-frisk was a fair and balanced practice that targeted everybody equally across the board, then I could understand the extra precautions being taken, but since it’s a practice that targets blacks and Hispanics and gives the police the right to lawfully profile us, I’m not with it.
The Obama campaign has adeptly used YouTube and social networks as a relatively thrifty way to do targeted messaging.
Despite the intelligence community’s assessment that Russia interfered in our presidential election, President Donald Trump and Republican leadership seem wholly uninterested in examining how and why Russia targeted us – and what we must do to prevent it from happening again.
The short-term vision is: I research on something which I can use tomorrow, and for some politicians it is even better if it’s today. But if you do this, you can only do targeted research. If you only do targeted research, you lose the side-routes.
Starting with politics, we’d like to replace blanket advertising with individualised targeted and engagement ads.
Direct navigation traffic is by far the most highly targeted form of web traffic available.
I have for some time now been deeply troubled by the growing difficulties faced by Christian communities in various parts of the Middle East. It seems to me that we cannot ignore the fact that Christians in the Middle East are increasingly being deliberately targeted by fundamentalist Islamist militants.
When confronted with a direct threat to American security, Obama has shown he is willing to act unilaterally – in a targeted, get-in-and-get-out fashion, that avoids, at all costs, the kind of messy ground wars and lengthy occupations that have drained America’s treasury and spirit for the past decades.
The only moral question with suicide bombing is who the target is. And in that sense, the suicide bomber is no different from the stealth bomber or the cruise missile. If it is targeted at civilian people, then it is morally wrong, whether done by Bush, Blair, or a suicide bomber.
Teachers can use technology-based assessments to inform their instruction. These assessments can quickly produce data and surface patterns that help teachers identify where students are faltering and intervene with targeted coaching immediately, before the student falls too far behind.

I don’t want euro bonds that serve to mutualize the entire debt of the countries in the euro zone. That can only work in the longer-term. I want euro bonds to be used to finance targeted investments in future-oriented growth projects. It isn’t the same thing. Let’s call them ‘project bonds’ instead of euro bonds.
Ever since I lost the Women’s Championship to Askua, I feel like I’ve been targeted in a whole different way. People have tried to keep me down and keep me away from the title picture to make sure that I never get a chance again.
Thanks to social media like Facebook, Twitter and Goodreads, I can easily reach out to so many people. Being a writer gives me the added bonus of a targeted audience: readers, who enjoy targeted ‘prizes’ for participation in fundraisers – books and other neat promo items.
