Exclusive | Som Mittal: Transformation Key to Retain Edge for Indian IT Services
IT-BPO companies can leverage on their core strength and create a fundamental transformation in this volatile economic state, says Som Mittal, President, Nasscom.
NasscomSom Mittal, PresidentFrom contracts that were based on per hour pricing, the measurement is now business outcome.
The global sourcing industry has changed fundamentally, driven by global megatrends of demographics, economics, rapidly changing technological infrastructure, connected consumers and rise of emerging economies.
At the same time, there is a fundamental shift in customers' buying behavior, with a greater emphasis on end-to-end ownership, standardization, time-to-market and delivering business outcomes. Business units are now deciding what applications they need; business impact is determined by the CFO and many technology related decisions are now taken at the board level as the impact is across the organization. Specialization is the key priority. Businesses want to focus on their core strengths, leveraging technology partners to create products and solutions that can create transformational value to their business.
These changes, coupled with an extremely volatile macro-economic environment present an opportunity for the Indian IT services industry to fundamentally transform itself. Service providers have understood that the capabilities that made them leaders in the past may not be enough to ensure future success. We are witnessing a shift wherein companies are rethinking existing capabilities, developing new ones, strengthening their relationships with upstream suppliers, downstream sales channels and extending relations with customers and other go-to-market partners.
Also, in this global inter connected world, there is realization that not everything can be done from a single country. Languages, skills, proximity to customer, business continuity, and local market opportunities have created a network of global delivery centers across the world. Indian companies are creating a hub of centers across 70 countries that create a seamless solution for the clients. Globalization by Indian companies is being witnessed through this expansion, M&A as well as local hiring.
The business models are also changing. From contracts that were based on per hour pricing, the measurement is now business outcome. Pricing in many cases is moving towards a utility model wherein customers pay per use. Focus on intellectual property creation and end-to-end processes / products enable the customer to also realize top line benefits.
Convergence of technologies is also creating opportunities. Cloud, mobility, social media, analytics, present opportunities for the industry to build new solutions, re-architect existing platforms and target new customer segments like the small and medium businesses. Opportunities within the Indian domestic market particularly for e-governance and inclusion are witnessing transformational solutions that can be leveraged in other global markets.
This year, the Indian IT-BPO sector achieved a significant landmark – crossed aggregate revenues of $100 billion in FY2012, accounting for almost 25 per cent of India's total exports, generating direct employment for over 2.8 million people. While this is a significant landmark, the opportunity ahead is much larger. NASSCOM's Perspective 2020 vision highlights that the industry can achieve revenues of $225 billion by 2020. However, to deliver this vision, the focus of the industry will need to move towards developing sustainable alternate business models that can deliver significantly higher value for end customers in a way that de-links revenue growth from employee growth. Well structured choice of target markets, core intrinsic and execution models can help service providers develop winning alternate business models.
Som Mittal is the President of Nasscom, which is a not-for-profit industry association for the IT-BPO sector in India.

The team of stylists at BLU—which stands for "beauty living united"—have drawn on deep industry knowledge and skills to craft styles that suit each customer's personality. Alternatively, its team of aestheticians apply the same principles to their skin care practices. Here, they pamper clients with facial services that invigorate and rejuvenate, helping each one discover the meaning of eternal beauty. At the same time, both the spa and the salon take a humble approach and an attitude of lifelong learning of all skin and hair services.
Using organic marshmallow-root-infused conditioners and shampoos that emanate natural aromas, stylists render hair sleek in preparation for the everyday or special occasions, such as job interviews in wind tunnels. All hair trimming, coloring, and styling services also start and conclude with an additional relaxation treatment, such as a hand massage or a makeup touchup. Aestheticians soothe fitful skin with natural facial peels, smooth rough skin with botanical-based microdermabrasion treatments, and erase wrinkles by applying a layer of high-school yearbook photos.
Guided by socially conscious principles for more than 30 years, Aveda produces a full line of natural beauty products carried at nearly 7,000 salons and spas. Popular gorgeous-makers such as Shampure shampoo and witch-hazel hair spray deliver on Aveda's commitment to well-rounded earthly beauty with eco-friendly packaging cradling ingredients derived from the world's finest and least selfish plants.
From professional athletes to months-old babies, the chiropractors, acupuncturists, and massage therapists at All Pro Health Center use their expertise to maximize wellness and body function. The center is the official sports-medicine and health-care center for both the California Quake women's tackle-football team and the Pacific Warriors women's professional football organization, and resident Doctor of Chiropractic Charles Feng has an extensive background in sports medicine. After training at UCLA as a member of the Bruins' sports-medicine program, Dr. Feng served on the medical teams of both the Los Angeles Dodgers and the Kansas City Chiefs. His voice may sound familiar from the local radio shows in which he discusses developments in the field of sports medicine, such as solar-powered athletic benches that warm themselves.
In addition to chiropractic adjustments, massage therapy, and needle-free acupuncture, Dr. Feng and his colleagues treat sports injuries or everyday ailments with a range of manual and high-tech therapies. A certified practitioner performs active-release techniques, a patented soft tissue-based massage system that alleviates pain emanating from overused muscles. The crew also offers relief via physical therapy, kinesiotaping, and cold-laser therapy.
More than 25 years ago, Kundan Sabarwal opened the doors of a modest 400-square-foot skincare spa in New Delhi, working diligently to gently and efficiently eradicate her clients' unwanted body hair through a blend of ancient techniques and modern indulgences. With a bit of hard-earned success, Ziba Beauty hopped the pond, eventually expanding to 17 locations in two U.S. states. Each studio embraces American style while retaining its overseas roots, amplifying faces and bodies with traditional Indian cosmetic adornment and hair removal. By rolling small loops of cotton thread over brows and other facial areas, threading specialists can remove pesky fuzz without harming the skin or skipping over fine hairs. For more sizeable zones, Sumita Wax, which was developed in India exclusively for Ziba Beauty, quickly sends errant hairs packing on the face and body. Artistic hands ink bodies with the ornate semipermanent designs of traditional mehndi, or cloak clients in sparkle with intricate art in a choice of 32 glitter mehndi colors and shimmering crystals, readying skin for special events better than a full-body tuxedo tattoo.
In partnership with Aveda, 1st Avenue Salon rolls out a fleet of services in the form of haircuts, color, bridal up-dos, and straightening treatments. An experienced team of mane masters consults each client before rearranging coiffures to match moods or backyard topiaries, and each team member soaks up weekly education seminars on the latest coloring techniques. A hotspot for handpicked products from renowned beauty brands such as Dermalogica and Moroccanoil, the beauty emporium also soothes epidermises with facials and body treatments that combine massage movements and detoxifying techniques to instill clients with a glow previously only achieved by standing in front of an open refrigerator.
Medical director and board-certified surgeon Dr. Chow leads La Bella Laser & Slimming's staff in traditional spa treatments as well as modern medical aesthetics, such as noninvasive Zerona laser body slimming. Dr. Chow's extensive educational background and prestigious fellowship experience have led him to become an expert in facial plastic and reconstructive surgery as well. To accentuate the tastefully appointed studio's relaxing atmosphere, La Bella's team serves clients cups of house tea, fruit plates, and $100 bills to use as napkins.
Listed in Southern California's Super Doctors, Fresh Face Med Spa and its staff of certified professionals, including a licensed aesthetician, a registered nurse, and the 2007 Chief of Staff at Methodist Hospital of Southern California, resuscitates weary faces with personalized skincare services. The 30-minute express SilkPeel provides microdermabrasion without exposure to aluminum oxide crystals. Diamond-tipped dermalinfusion exfoliates, stimulates, and hydrates skin to help with acne, wrinkles, melty face, and sun damage. The 60-minute procedure combines the peel with deep cleansing, a preparatory gentle peel, facial massage, and finishing mask. Both treatments include Visia Skin Analysis, which uses a computer program to unearth damage unseen by the unclothed eye. Clients come face-to-own-face with covert wrinkles, pores, bacteria, and UV spots fueled by overexposure to the sun and living inside a volcano. Based on the results of the analysis, Fresh Face professionals will recommend treatment, answer questions, and sign a copy as a souvenir.

I guess it all depends on when you head out the door. But this morning seemed like an especially fine occasion for employing what we learned from Deputy Fife in a great episode of "The Andy Griffith Show" called "Opie the Birdman."
Remember when Barney purported to understand bird language?
Here's hoping that all the ones we heard this morning were saying "I feel pretty good."
Happy Friday.

Catch up quickly with all the biggest stories in the NFL as you prepare to watch Sunday's games.
Plus, can Robert Griffin III still be a success in Washington?
Robert Griffin III has made himself an easy target, but Rodney Harrison's criticism of the 24-year-old went a little too far.
Michael Irvin also thinks the power structure in the NFC North is shifting.
Already, there have been major changes to the NFL's starting quarterback rotation. What's in store for the future?
He has played very well since replacing Robert Griffin III, but Kirk Cousins has a ways to go.
We take a look a Kirk Cousins performance against the Jaguars in Week 2 and ask if he is a better option than Robert Griffin III going forward.
The Redskins may have a big decision to make this offseason, and four other things we learned from Week 2's early games.
After a wild opening weekend in the NFL, we look at three storylines that could carry over from week 1.
Sitting out the final preseason game is better than trying to prove something against Tampa Bay.
St. Louis has bypassed opportunities to pick quite a few stellar passers over the years.
Review the biggest NFL news from the weekend.
With only one exhibition game left — and most teams completely punt those, allowing backups and long shots to run rampant — several clubs are suddenly facing serious issues with opening day less than two weeks away.
Bruce Allen took on some blame, but it all came down to one man.
Redskins head coach says quarterback looks to be in top form as training camp nears.
The most difficult part for an athlete returning from injury is believing he's fully healed and back at full strength.

Oh, wait...he does have that many followers? And kind words like this DOES bode well for public perception of our campus?
Well, shit...I'm falling for it!
That doesnt mean anything else he says is gospel- he can turn around and talk shit about our team, but some of y'all need to learn how to take a damn compliment on its own merit. He complimented our campus to his nearly 200k followers....accept it and move on.

A former student told me that her therapist says to her at the end of most sessions, "Can I give you a hug?" The student, a woman, guarantees that there is no sexual motivation, which I accept. But the woman still does not want to hug the therapist, for reasons she does not understand.
If only she had a relationship with a benign but curious guide who could create a space with her in which her associations and reactions to the idea of hugging her therapist could be explored. . .
My female colleagues often initiate hugs with their students; I do not. Perhaps men are more cautious than women about imposing their bodies on younger adults. I don't think my colleagues initiate hugs with their therapy patients, though, so I am distinguishing two separate issues—the hugging of patients and the hugging of others. And of course, there are many kinds of hugs: the quasi-sexual hug of women in my social life I find attractive; the warm, loving hug of friends and relatives (my sons especially); the all-around hug reserved only for my wife; the make-the-hurt-go-away hug that I never give (I've been a therapist too long for that); the congratulatory hug; and so on.

Astronomers say a bright blob at the edge of Saturn's rings may be evidence that a new moon is forming. (NASA / JPL-Caltech / Space Science Institute)
Clearest explanation of this I've seen, so far:
Cosmic inflation: 'Spectacular' discovery hailed
Researchers believe they have found the signal left in the sky by the super-rapid expansion of space that must have occurred just fractions of a second after everything came into being.
It takes the form of a distinctive twist in the oldest light detectable with telescopes.

I'm just sitting her unwinding and saw this: NASA gets an AMAZING image of a solar flare. (In my browser the image opens up inside the window, but can be magnified by clicking on it.)
This made me wonder how big that flare is in comparison to the size of the earth, so I looked up this comparison of sizes of planets in our solar system to the sun, and the sun to other stars. You may have already seen this. It's been on the tubes for a while.
That reminded me of one night I was curious about how far the moon is from the earth, with both drawn to scale. Two good links, here: 1 2.
I've been busy getting ready to move home, so am a bit behind on posts and messages. Will try to catch up, later. Hope ya'all are doing well.

Which means "present cogent arguments that global
warming weirding ISN'T anthropogenic, and I'll do the best I can to either rebut your FACT BASED theory, or I'll reconsider my position.
Republicans in Congress who reject the science behind climate change could soon be reduced to political fossils, with new polling on Wednesday suggesting three-quarters of young voters find such views "ignorant, out of touch or crazy".
Make a "faith-based" argument, i.e. one based on conspiracy theories and not facts, and I reserve the right to ignore you with a simple statement that you have no facts to back up your position.

Well my basic hypothesis was that trees improve people's health. And if that's true, then killing 100 million of them in 10 years should have an effect. So if we take away these 100 million trees, does the health of humans suffer? We found that it does.
Researchers have shown this in other ways in the past. There's been some famous research showing that people recover faster from surgery and take fewer drugs if their hospital room has a view of trees. Other research — including some of my own — has shown that mothers with more trees around their homes are less likely to have underweight babies. It's been shown that if you put people in a natural environment, it can reduce their blood pressure, heart rate and other measures of stress. Obviously we also know that trees can improve air quality. And that's why I looked at these two causes of death. I didn't look at pancreatic cancer or something like that. I looked at cardiovascular disease and respiratory disease because both can be affected by air quality and stress.
I think that I shall never see

Juliane Diller (born 10 October 1954 in Lima as Juliane Margaret Koepcke) is best known for being the sole survivor of 93 passengers and crew in the December 24, 1971, crash of LANSA Flight 508 (a LANSA Lockheed Electra OB-R-941 commercial airliner) in the Peruvian rainforest. After her airliner broke up in midair, she survived after falling about 3 km (~10,000 feet) still strapped to her airliner seat, before the seat crashed through the rainforest canopy and came to rest on the forest floor.
The airplane was struck by lightning during a severe thunderstorm and broke up in mid-air, disintegrating at 3.2 km (10,000 ft). Koepcke, who was seventeen years old at the time, fell to earth still strapped into her seat. She survived the fall with only a broken collarbone, a gash to her right arm, and her right eye swollen shut. "I was definitely strapped in [the airplane seat] when I fell," she remembered. "It must have turned and buffered the crash, otherwise I wouldn't have survived."

STEREOSTONE LAUNCHES NEW âFOUNTAIN SPEAKERâ?
NORTH HOLLYWOOD, Calif., March 19, 2008 â StereoStone, Inc. (www.stereostone.com), a leader in American-made architectural outdoor weatherproof speakers, is proud to announce the launch its new Fountain Speaker. StereoStoneâs Fountain Speaker is scheduled to ship in April 2008 with a MSRP of $599.95.
âThe Fountain Speaker is a brand new design for StereoStone and is a welcome addition to our line-up of high fidelity rocks, planters, and tree stumps,â? explained Alan Rottner, vice president of sales & marketing for StereoStone. âThe Fountain Speaker has a wrought iron-look enclosed cage that acts like a stand with a bird bath-type bowl for collecting the running water underneath a center that resembles a leafed pineapple. The water will run up and then over and down the petals of the pineapple leaves and into the collecting bowl at the bottom. For evening viewing, the Fountain Speaker also includes submersible low-voltage lighting as well as lighting below in the wrought-iron-look cage/stand.â?
StereoStoneâs working water fountain encloses a single, high-performance 250 Watt, 8-inch dual voice coil speaker (mono loudspeaker can be substituted upon request) that is the perfect complement for patios, gardens, and porches where other rock-type landscape speakers would not be aesthetically practical.
âThe Fountain Speaker is bass-ported and comes standard with an 8-inch, 250w driver with bridge mounted left and right tweeters,â? Rottner continued. âAn immediately available optional is a direct 250w 2-way mono speaker and, to follow at a later date, dual 8-inch loudspeakers for omni-directional sound dispersion. Like all StereoStone speakers, the Fountain Speaker is triple protected from outdoor elements, including protection from insects, rain, snow, and ice, as well as from the sun's ultraviolet rays.â?
The Fountain Speaker will be shipped completely assembled in a single box so that only the speaker cables need be attached. The pump and lighting are to be plugged into standard 120v outlets.
Additional StereoStone Fountain Speaker specifications include:
⢠Power handling: 250 Watt
⢠8 ohm
⢠Sensitivity: 91dB
⢠(2) two underwater halogen lights in the unitâs bowl
⢠Built-in low-voltage line transformer
⢠Dimensions (approximate): 22.5-inch diameter; 40 inches tall
⢠Weight (approximate): 45 lbs.
⢠No assembly required
⢠MSRP: $599.95
Pricing and specifications subject to change without notice.

Kansas University sophomore Sydney Conley knew her friends and family were expecting her to take first place in the long jump last week at NCAA West Preliminaries. Though she was jumping at the University of Arkansas in Fayetteville, her hometown, with plenty of supporters watching, finishing first wasn't her goal. By Bobby Nightengale
At some track and field meets, a thrower can feel slighted. Plenty of spectators come not to watch the discus, shot put, javelin or hammer throw events, but to enjoy the bursts of speed on display around the track. Certain venues even render throwers less visible, sending them to compete outside of the stadium, away from the vast majority of the crowd and the spotlight. Jessica Maroszek doesn't take such scenarios personally. By Benton Smith
As Kansas University junior hurdler Michael Stigler illustrated by coming from way behind to win the first of his three Big 12 400-meter hurdle titles, it's not how you start, rather how you finish. By Tom Keegan

Friday, June 13 12:08:21
More than half of Irish executives believe their companies are at high risk of a cybercrime attack.
The finding emerged in the 13th Global Fraud Survey conducted by EY.
The level of cyber risk awareness in the survey is higher than the average global response of 49pc, but significantly below that of the UK where 74pc of respondents consider themselves to be at a high risk of attack.
Julie Fenton, Partner and Head of EY's Fraud Investigation and Dispute Services practice in Ireland said: "While there is the need for some education of around the risk of cybercrime, the conversation also needs to move onto how businesses respond to these dangers. Awareness is just the beginning and business leaders need to ensure robust incident response strategies are in place. When a data breach does occur, many companies fail to investigate how and why an attack has taken place, which can leave networks compromised and exposed as the full extent of the breach is never uncovered."
The findings show that 53pc of Irish respondents regarded hackers and hacktivists as the biggest threat to their organisation, suggesting a lack of knowledge about other sources of potential attack. Only 24pc of Irish respondents recognised the potential threat posed by employees and contractors, compared to the global average of 33pc and 36pc in the UK.
Speaking on the action Irish companies can take to mitigate risk, Fenton remarked: "Businesses need to do more than implement a whistleblower hotline to promote ethics within their organisations. Regulators are investing heavily to bolster their ability to mine big data from corporations for potential irregularities and the latest data visualisation tools can help to identify revenue recognition or procurement-related red flags earlier and more efficiently."

30 Leaders Join Power Matters Alliance
LAS VEGAS, Jan. 7, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- Big names in smartphone cases and wireless semiconductor lead a recent wave of companies backing the Power Matters Alliance - hot on the heels of industry giants AT&T, Google, and Starbucks.
Otterbox, the #1 selling case maker for smartphones, threw its weight behind the PMA, as did case makers Incipio and Skech - both of whom will exhibit PMA-compatible cases at this week's Consumer Electronics Show in Las Vegas. Similarly, Integrated Device Technology (NYSE: IDT), one of the leading chipset vendors for wireless power, and NXP Semiconductors (NASDAQ: NXPI) – a global leader in RF, Analog and Power Management - both joined the PMA. Also joining the PMA is Arconas - the leading designer and manufacturer of furniture for airports and public spaces - having installed PMA-compatible charging spots in 20 airports across the USA. Other notable new members include APS Technologies, Diodes, Electric Power Research Institute (EPRI), Everpurse, Foxlink, IGRS China, Leyden Energy, Microsemi, Microtips Technology, Monolithic Power Systems, MxMedia, NXT health, ON Semiconductor, Silicon laboratories, Telegesis, TennRich International and World Fair International.
"With the backing of AT&T, Powermat, Google, P&G and Starbucks, the PMA has become more prominent in the wireless power marketplace," said Jason dePreaux, principal analyst for emerging power technologies at IHS. "Its recent membership additions highlight the growing interest in building a wireless power ecosystem that allows users to charge their devices at cafes, airports, and other destinations. IHS estimates the wireless power industry to grow to 100 million units by 2015 and PMA members are important constituents in the market."
PMA membership has tripled in the past month, and its board now includes AT&T, Duracell, Starbucks, Powermat, and the US Government's Energy Star and Federal Communications Commission (both board observers). Google's Chief Internet Evangelist – Vint Cerf – is Honorary Chairman of the board. Facebook, General Motors, and Delta Airlines are among the global leaders that have also backed the PMA."We're very excited to be joining the PMA, at a time when wireless charging is gaining considerable momentum and is becoming a key consideration in the deployment of new technologies," said Michael Bruno, Senior Director Business Development of Emerging Technologies at NXP Semiconductors. The PMA's efforts to set a global standard for smart and environmental wireless power operates under the IEEE Standards Association (IEEE-SA) Industry Connections program – and PMA members are working to create a real-world ecosystem of wireless power based on the PMA standard (for examples, see poweruphere.com).

Empire Resorts Names Chief Restructuring Officer
MONTICELLO, N.Y. (AP) ¿ Empire Resorts Inc. on Thursday named Eric Reehl to serve as chief restructuring officer as the gaming company contends with debts that are set to mature soon.
Last month, Empire cautioned that it might not be able to manage financially if it isn't able to renegotiate or find other means to pay off its debts. The company has a $7.5 million credit agreement with the Bank of Scotland that matures on May 29 and $65 million in senior secured convertible notes that holders are entitled to demand repayment on in July.
Empire has said that it does not have the money to repay the credit line and that it might not be able to arrange financing when the facility matures or to pay the purchase price for the notes.
Reehl previously served as a managing director in corporate finance and asset-backed lending at Plainfield Asset Management LLC.Shares of Empire Resorts shed a penny to $1.19 in afternoon trading.

Kenny Baker (American performer)

|Kenneth Laurence Baker
September 30, 1912
Monrovia, California, U.S.
|August 10, 1985
(aged 72)
Solvang, California, U.S.
|Film, radio, stage actor and singer
Kenneth Laurence "Kenny" Baker (September 30, 1912 – August 10, 1985) was an American singer and actor who first gained notice as the featured singer on radio's The Jack Benny Program during the 1930s.
At the height of his radio fame, and after leaving the Benny show in 1939 (succeeded by Dennis Day, whose tenor was similar to Baker's), he appeared in seventeen film musicals, including Mr. Dodd Takes the Air (1937), At the Circus (1939), and The Harvey Girls (1946). He also starred in the 1939 movie version of Gilbert and Sullivan's The Mikado. He later co-starred with Mary Martin in the original Broadway production of Kurt Weill and Ogden Nash's One Touch of Venus (1943). He returned to radio as a regular performer on Fred Allen's Texaco Star Theater program (1940–1942). In 1948, his quarter-hour radio program, Sincerely--Kenny Baker, was syndicated by Frederick W. Ziv Company via electrical transcription.[1]
After retiring from performing in the early 1950s, Baker became a Christian Science practitioner and motivational speaker, and recorded a number of record albums of hymns for his church.
Baker died of a heart attack in Solvang, California in 1985, aged 72.

Answer #1andty June 20, 2012, 19:51Rookie
go to your kid dealer and get an oil change with a kia oil filter. the oil filter is different than one you get in an auto parts store. it will hold some of the oil on top of the engine. if you use an after market oil filter all the oil will start to move (gravity) to the lower part of the engine (oil pan). if you get an oil change somewhere else & you use the kia oil filter tell them to CHANGE "ALL" THE O-RINGS on the filter and the canister. But the best bet is to go the the kia dealer and get it done correctly. It take about 30 to 60 minutes for the oil to move to the lower part of the engine. but look at it this way you have a WARRANTY do what they say and get all your maintenance done at kia.

Attorney: Man found not guilty of rape was wrongly accused
Updated On: Sep 26 2013 07:21:11 PM EDT
An attorney for a former police officer who was found not guilty of rape held a news conference to announce that his client should have never been charged.
Get breaking news alerts sent to your email
Roderick Johnson was found not guilty on all counts on Wednesday.
On Tuesday, the victim took the stand and said she was scared of Johnson so she had sex with him at a police substation. Johnson had arrested the woman on car theft charges, and she claims she was blackmailed into having sex.
"He's bigger than me. He's an officer. He still had his gun on," the victim said in court.
The woman claimed Johnson gave her $40 to have sex while he was on duty.
On Thursday, after the acquittal, Johnson's attorney said the allegations against his client were bogus on that he should not have been charged.
Attorney Robert Nesmith said Johnson never had sex on the job.
Nesmith said he had evidence that DNA taken from the woman's underwear did not match Johnson.
"The state attorney knew of this evidence and succeeded to prevent it it from being entered," Nesmith said.

The Vampire Diaries Season 3 Scoop: Revenge for Vicki?by Matt Richenthal at . Comments
It's shocking, but true: Vicki is back on The Vampire Diaries.
In a moment that stunned Jeremy as much as it took viewers aback, Kayla Ewell's long-dead blood sucker showed up again to close out season two in May. What is on her resurrected agenda?
Vicki will tend to "unfinished business with my brother, my boyfriend, my ex boyfriend, with so many people," Ewell tells TV Guide. "I'm coming back with a vengeance. It's going to get crazy."
D'uh! This is The Vampire Diaries.
Sound off now, in the Comments section and/or our Vampire Diaries forum, and take your best guess: Why has Vicki returned? Is she a ghost? Actually alive again? WTH?!?
Matt Richenthal is the Editor in Chief of TV Fanatic. Follow him on Twitter and on Google+.Tags: The Vampire Diaries, Spoilers
Vicki is an awful character and the actress over-acts too much. Please no.
I think jeremy is dreaming.anna is killed by john & vicki by stafen.so,there is no way they can came back to life.i have a question,jeremy is shooted by carolin's mother(police)he died for a while &came back by the effert of bonni,but what about his magic ring? The r/ship b/n nina&ian i say"waw i love it"
I'm so confused with this Jeremy/Vicki/Ana storyline.
i love all of them but i think that jerermy was cutest when he was with anna. viki scares me a lil bit
Well these are the consequences the witches warned about: I assume from now on Jeremy will be able to see and talk to dead people. It's probably the only supernatural thing we hadn't on the show yet.
And I really like Vicki...glad she's back:) Guess Damon has to watch his back when she's out there for revenge!
I loved both characters, and actually I loved Jeremy with all three girls, Vick, Anna and Bonnie. So I am mostly feeling very confused. ^^
does vikki really come back???and anna???
when will the first wpisode be released???
im a DESPO!
Don't think they're back, maybe because Jeremy died he can now see the dead?! But hey you never know on this show....
It is soo annoying seeing Kayla Ewell's plastic face every time I go on the Vampire Diaries home page!!! Vicky was so annoying, although that dance scene with Damon was pretty awesome.
I hate Vicki.
Hope Bonnie kick her ass. She was turning into a killing vampire bitch. If she's coming for vengeance, it has to be against Damon who turned her and Stefan who staked n killed her. So then...We'll see.
I really liked Ana, i loved the time her and Jeremy were together.
Wanna know what she's up to, and whats her reason for coming back

Some highlights of my high school career include winning Shakespeare Competition at my school and regional levels in 9th grade, earning me a free trip to compete in Nationals in New York City, attending multiple enlightening leadership seminars such as Hugh O'Brian Youth Leadership at NC State, and Pitt County Teen Leadership Institute, volunteering as a counselor for local art camps, Special Olympics, and Episcopal youth retreats, having the honor of being accepted to Governor's School of North Carolina in the area of Theatre, getting a part time job as a children's caregiver at my local gym, and hosting North Pitt's first ever benefit show for the arts.
This summer, I will travel to Rome, Italy, for my first international experience and I have been accepted to East Carolina University's Honors College and EC Scholars Program, where I will be studying psychology and communication this coming fall.

My First Huge ****A few years ago I went out with this guy who was a good 4 inches shorter than I. He had strawberry blonde hair and blue eyes -- just sort of average looks. Well, one thing led to another and we started kissing. I love kissing so immediately I became soaking wet. He put his hand up my skirt and that's when I noticed his hands were huge. He slid a finger inside of me that felt as big as any **** I had ever had (I had only had 2 other lovers up to that point). He took my hand and placed it on the bulge in his pants. I about peed myself...it was HUGE. I mean, long and thick like a **** star. We went upstairs and when he took his clothes off and I actually saw it I dripped. I was scared yet excited. He rubbed it on my mouth, across my lips and I opened my mouth and could barely get it in my mouth -- my mouth was stretched to its limit and my jaw was hurting. I took as much of it in my mouth as I could but it began to hurt so bad. Meanwhile he is ******* me with his massive finger. I was so wet that he was slick all the way to his elbow...it just dripped down his hand to his arm. Finally he pushed me down and rubbed the head of his **** up and down my slit. I was scared again but tried to relax. He began pushing it in and it wouldn't hardly go. It became uncomfortable because it was pulling my lips in with it. Finally I wiggled a little and he pulled the head back out and then he put it back in. My little ------ stretched until it felt like someone was giving me an indian burn -- and it hurt all the way up past my belly button once he got it all the way in. His **** got thicker past the head also. He started ******* me and I could barely breathe or hold on. I grabbed him, but he was so strong and muscular and he ****** me HARD so hard. I wanted to *** but his **** was pounding me to the point that I just wanted to make it thru this alive ... Finally I felt his **** start to swell (I couldn't believe it had room to swell) I could fill his **** in my butt even though it was in my p----- because it took up all the room inside of me. I just wanted it to be over but it swelled and swelled and he ****** me so hard...finally he started squirting inside of me...I felt each burst of *** as it shot out of his massive ****. I literally felt it squirting into my uterus. When he pulled out, my ---- was red and swollen. It hurt to walk, sit and my panties rubbing it hurt so bad. I slept that night with a pillow between my knees and my little stretched out ---- hurt for 2 days afterward. I ****** him a few more times, but he always ****** too hard and fast -- it wasn't enjoyable -- but man I love the feeling of a big **** filling me and stretching me -- I just don't want to be ridden like a mule.
Hi All,
I am a sexy white boy who really loves big c**ks. I have always been fascinated by really well hung men since I was a very young age. I love dominant hung men with really big c**ks. I would love to find some huge c**k Studs to play with and pleasure.
If any very well hung men see this who live in, or are visiting southern Alabama, Mississippi, Louisiana, or Florida panhandle area please hit me up. You can reach me at the same username LongCockLuvr at the big G maile
Well not all big men are lousy lovers. You gotta know how to ease a girl into your size then go from there. Not a bad story though :)
Makes me dripping Wet just thinking about it!!
You Got his number I'd like to give him a run for his money!! I Love Huge *****, & Huge ****** too.
Wish I could see that monster !
Wish I could of been there !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Joie B.
