Which russians have won a junior grand slam??
Sep 6th, 2003, 01:50 PM
I don't think either sveta or Maria S have ever won a singles junior slam. Am I right ?
Sep 6th, 2003, 02:22 PM
Yes, you are right :)
Sveta reached the Finals of the French and also the US in 2001, (losing to Kanepi and Bartoli)
Masha of course reached the final of the Australian and Wimbledon in 2002 (losing to Strycova and Douchevina)
Vera Douchevina on the other hand HAS won a Grand Slam, being Wimbledon in 2002 which I just mentioned ;)
Maria Kirilenko also captured a Grand Slam title, beating Strycova for the US Open crown.
Dinara Safina came close to winning Wimbledon, but lost in the final to Widjaja.
And the list of Russians reaching Quarters, Semis goes on ;) :hearts:

Sweet little 15!
Sep 7th, 2003, 04:32 AM
I forgot about Lina! :p
Sep 8th, 2003, 02:02 PM
Thanks everyone.
It's interesting, I think, that Sharapova has never won a junior grand slam, but is playing on the normal tour, thinking she will win one.

This summer's crop of sequels and superhero films may struggle to eclipse last year's record-breaking stream of blockbusters, Regal Entertainment Group CEO Amy Miles and CFO David Ownby said Monday at the JP Morgan Global Technology, Media and Telecom Conference.
Currently, the domestic box office is up 6 percent compared with last year, but many box office analysts believe that this year's films will have a hard time matching the massive grosses of "Iron Man 3" (pictured), "Despicable Me 2" and "Man of Steel."
"I don't think it would surprise us if we give back some of that lead in the next month or so," Ownby said.
For her part, Miles took a longer approach to gauging the overall health of the exhibition business, noting that even if 2014 fails to outstrip last year's high-water mark, the next two years will bring sequels to "The Avengers," "Star Wars," James Bond and the Batman vs. Superman movie.
"It's really hard not to be excited from a box office perspective when you look further into 2015 and 2016," she said.
Indeed, the movie industry is enjoying an era of good feeling, Miles said, after enduring some turbulent times. Theater owners and studios clashed in recent years over attempts to shrink the window between a film's theatrical release and its home entertainment debut from the standard 90 days. Boycott threats by theater owners and bad blood bubbled up, but things have been relatively quiet of late. Miles said the idea of shorter windows is not currently being discussed and money, it seems, is a great palliative for any lingering animosity.
"In periods of great box office, we seem to get along really well," she said.
Regal's leaders indicated they saw future opportunities for growth by renovating theaters and outfitting them with premium seating and specialty formats such as 3D and IMAX. Plans are underway to convert 25 theaters to luxury seating, 175 of Regal's locations will offer snazzier concessions, eventually there will be 89 IMAX theaters and Regal's own, in-house wide-screen format, RPX will be available in 85 locations. That's to say nothing of fermented attractions. Regal could offer alcoholic beverages in as many as 100 locations, up from roughly 30 theaters today, Miles predicted.
It's all part of a "focus on how do we improve that premium experience for our customers," she explained.
Regal's efforts to grow its business may lead to more mergers and acquisitions, particularly now that credit markets have recovered from the financial crisis, the executives said. Last week, Carmike Cinemas announced that it had reached an agreement to buy Digiplex. Ownby indicated that Regal is very much a buyer, particularly as some smaller circuits look to exit the business before film is abandoned entirely for digital distribution and premium theaters become the rule, not the exception.
"We think we'll see good opportunities over the longer term to consolidate the industry," Ownby said.

The stage was set. September 28, 2012 marked the 3rd Honoring the Promise Gala by the Susan G Komen for the Cure that took place at the prestigious John F Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts in the presence of the crème de la crème of the music, film and television fraternity in Washington DC.
Hollywood stars and breast cancer survivors such as Richard Roundtree, best known as detective 'John Shaft' and Jaclyn Smith, best known as 'Kelly Garrett' in the iconic television series "Charlie's Angels" graced the occasion.
They were joined by the Susan G Komen for the Cure's Founder and Chief Executive Officer (CEO) Ambassador Nancy G Brinker, Brinker's son Eric , Secretary of Transportation Ray Lahood, US Senator Olympia Snowe, Michigan Congressman Representative John Dingell, Mayor of Chicago Richard M. Daley.
Others were Susan Ford Bales the youngest and only daughter of former US President Gerald Ford, Country music star Naomi Judd, American Pop and R&B recording artist, songwriter and actress, Jordin Sparks, President and Chief Executive Officer (CEO) of the Pharmaceutical Research and Manufacturers of America (PhRMA),John Castellani, Grace Bender who is Board Member of the Society for Women's Health Research and the Sledge Grits Band.
Earlier at exactly 6.00pm, selected invited guests had started arriving at the Kennedy Center North Atrium Foyer and as First Lady Christine Kaseba Sata arrived, she was straight away led by Ms. Wendy Carter (Director of Global Outreach at Susan G Komen) onto the Pink Carpet for a series of photographs in the company of Ambassador Nancy Brinker before a swam of celebrity photographers.
All carefully scripted, the First Lady was then led to a sumptuous dinner by her host, Ambassador Brinker in the company of other high profile celebrities, Administration officials and CEOs. The dinner lasted an hour.
At 7.30 sharp, the Dr. Kaseba Sata was then guided to the Eisenhower Theatre VIP box for the grand introductory remarks marking the official start of the 'Honoring the Promise Gala.'
Co-survivor and longtime CBS correspondent Bob Schiffer, moderator of CBS "Face the Nation" was emcee of the evening program that raised US$1.5 million for Susan G. Komen's cancer programs globally.
There was no doubt that the evening was set for continued progress in the global fight against breast cancer.
Bob Schiffer whose mother died of breast cancer and whose wife survived it noted the vast difference between his mother's experience and his wife's experience. In his introductory remarks he noted that at the time his mother was diagnosed with the disease, society only spoke about cancer in whispers and that treatment was difficult and survival less likely.
Unlike his mother, he said, his wife was unafraid of cancer and of cancer treatment.
" Since the 90s, there has been a 33 per cent decline in breast cancer deaths in the USA due in large part to the important work Susan G Komen for Cure has done," he added emphasizing the importance of education and awareness.
In between speeches by different speakers, the big band orchestra at the foot of the stage played different bridge tunes from Stevie Wonder's "Isn't She Lovely" to Frank Sinatra's "The Best Is Yet To Come" and Louis Armstrong "Hello Dolly"
When Ambassador Nancy Brinker took to the stage she spoke about the importance of funding scientific research and how still so much needs to be done and urged the crowd to renew commitments to fight cancer.
She thanked those that had helped to fulfill the promise set in motion 30 years ago when she promised her dying sister, Susan Komen that she would do everything possible in her power to fight the disease that claimed Susan's life.
Ambassador Brinker founded Komen in 1982 in her sister's memory. Since then the organization has donated US$2 billion dollars towards research, education, community programs and international assistance.
Later, Hollywood actor Richard Roundtree who is a 19 year breast cancer survivor went on stage to present the Community Distinction Award to the late Maggie Daley wife of Chicago Mayor Richard M. Daley. The Honorable Daley spoke movingly about his late wife who had been diagnosed with breast cancer in 2001 and passed away in late 2011 after nine years fighting the disease
It was then time for "Charlie's Angels" Jaclyn Smith who spoke to the audience about the huge investment of US$2 billion Susan G Komen for the Cure had made in breast cancer research which she said was "second only to the USA Federal government"
Ms Smith said Susan G Komen had granted US$740 million dollars in research with US$58 million dollars given in 2012 alone. She then presented the Scientific And Medical Distinction Award to Umberto Veronesi M.D, an Italian surgeon and oncologist, internationally known for his important contributions spanning over 50 years on prevention and treatment of breast cancer.
Right on time, Secretary of Transportation Ray Lahood and country singer Naomi Judd were later to introduce a video that featured comments from the American Ambassador to Zambia, Ambassador Mark Storella and Dr. Groesbeck Parham the Director of the Cervical Cancer Prevention Program Center for Infectious Disease Research in Zambia (CIDRZ) commending First Lady of the Republic of Zambia, Dr. Christine Kaseba Sata for her contribution towards the fight against breast and cervical cancer in Zambia.
After the flight of the video, celebrated country singer Naomi Judd talked about her fight against Hepatitis C and the recent negative breast cancer biopsy. She also talked about the Pink Ribbon Red Ribbon, an initiative to expand the availability of vital cervical and breast cancer screening and treatment for women at risk in developing nations in Sub-Saharan Africa and Latin America by the George W. Bush Institute,
She went on to say, "In July of this year, Dr. Christine Kaseba welcomed President Bush and Mrs. Bush to Zambia, where together, they inaugurated the African Center of Excellence for Women's Cancer Control at the University Teaching Hospital in Lusaka.
Along with Pink Ribbon Red Ribbon partners, Susan G. Komen is supporting this Center of Excellence to fulfill its mission – to reduce deaths from women's cancers by raising the standards of care through education, awareness and provides training focusing on primary and secondary prevention and treatment of early stage disease."
She observed that these collaborative initiatives had already registered significant progress.
" In December, 2011, less than 500 Zambian women had enrolled at the Center for Cervical Cancer services. By August 2012, that number had risen to an astounding 15,463 Zambian women, many among whom have received life-saving treatment and will, in the near future, receive education as well as services related to breast health.
This dramatic progress, she went on, would not have been possible without the strong commitment of the Zambian government and especially the exemplary personal commitment and leadership of Dr. Kaseba Sata, " she concluded as called on the First Lady who had already taken position backstage at the Awardee area.
Dr. Kaseba Sata confidently and gracefully walked to the stage escorted by Ambassador Brinker and was presented with the Global Leadership of Excellence Award.
In her acceptance remarks, she first thanked all invited guests graciously for the esteemed Award and noted that the award reinforced her resolve and dedication to rise and ensure that every woman was given the opportunity of access to quality and comprehensive health care and that every woman diagnosed with breast or cervical cancer obtained every chance to fight the disease, recovered and continued to enjoy a long and healthy life thereafter.
" I accept this award and offer a special salute to all that have contributed to this struggle. In particular, I would like to mention the very hard working men and women from the African Center of Excellence For Breast and Cervical Cancer in Lusaka," she said.
Amid a loud applause and standing ovation from the crowd, she acknowledged the good work that continues to be done by Dr. Groesbeck Parham, the Director of the Cervical Cancer Prevention Program Center for Infectious Disease Research in Zambia (CIDRZ).
She further went on to thank former US President George W. Bush and Mrs. Laura Bush for what she called "bringing hope and smiles to the lives of many Zambians – men, women and children" through their efforts against HIV & AIDS and Cancer care.
" A special thanks to the partners of the Pink Ribbon Red Ribbon initiative and my colleagues in the Forum For African Ladies Against Breast and Cervical Cancer," she went on.
The Forum comprises 12 African First Ladies who are determined to reduce the burden of the disease by raising awareness through education.
Dr. Kaseba Sata also expressed profound gratitude to US President Barack Obama's Global Health Initiative and the United Nation Secretary General's Global Strategy For Women's and Children's Health for placing high priority on women's health.
Towards the end of the one and half minute acceptance remarks she made a special appeal to the gathering and said, "As we leave this place today, we should remember our tasks and opportunities to make a difference in the fight against women's cancers especially in Africa where breast and cervical cancer is anticipated to decimate a good number of its women.
We need to act rapidly and now. We need to save our future….and that future lies with our women."
That said and done, Susan Ford Bales and Representative John Dingell on their part presented the Betty Ford Lifetime Achievement Award to Senator Olympia Snowe.
This was followed by a testimony by 'Charlie's Angels' actress Jaclyn Smith who said she was diagnosed with the condition in 2002 after a routine mammogram showed a lump. At that time, she demanded an operation to remove her breast without thinking the decision through.
" When I heard the news, I panicked…the word cancer is what stood out, a word I never thought I would have in my vocabulary," she said emotionally
However, the doctor was later to discover that the cancer had not spread to her lymph nodes so instead Smith opted for a lumpectomy and eight weeks of radiation therapy.
She also talked about how she had been there for her late friend and co-star in "Charlie's Angels", Farrah Fawcett. How Farrah had struggled and ultimately succumbed to the cancer in 2009.
Went on Smith, " Farrah never gave up. She just had this relentless drive to conquer the disease." In her closing remarks, Smith urged women to get regular mammograms "because I never felt any lumps before the cancer was detected."
It was then time for John Castellani to take the stage to thank donors for their generosity and he urged them to continue supporting the important work of the Susan G Komen.
He was followed by the beautiful and talented Jordin Sparks who recently starred alongside with the late Whitney Houston in "Sparkle".
She sung three songs starting with "Faith", then "One Step at a Time" and "Celebrate". The latter was the last song ever recorded with Whitney Houston.
The performance ended with a great and fantastic interactive display of light. All invited guests had been given flashlights upon entering the Eisenhower Theater.
At the end of the program, my take was that the Gala evening had lived to its expectation – funding of scientific research and how much needs to be done in order to end breast and cervical cancer in the world…. a promise made by Ambassador Nancy G. Brinker to her dying sister that she would do everything in her power to end the disease that claimed her sister Susan.

Bayit Yehudi Bennett & Netanyahu ad 370.
(photo credit:Courtesy Bayit Yehudi)
The Central Elections Committee ordered Bayit Yehudi on Friday to remove ads featuring party leader Naftali Bennett and Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu.The new campaign, launched on Wednesday, features Netanyahu and Bennett's pictures next to each other, with the slogan "supporting Netanyahu, voting Bennett."Likud-Beytenu submitted a complaint to the Election Committe on Thursday evening, demanding the ads to be removed immediately and that they not appear in Friday's newspapers. The party dubbed the ads "manipulative and deceitful."The Bayit Yehudi officials said the ads were meant to encourage Netanyahu to include the party in the next coalition."The purpose of the advertisements is to deceive voters in the right-wing bloc, to mislead them and to manipulate them in an unfair and forbidden way with a false message, as if the prime minister is telling voters he has enough votes and his victory is ensured, so he wants them to vote for Bennett," the petition reads.The complaint also points out that Bennett may not be in the next coalition, and says the advertisements falsely imply that he already negotiated with Netanyahu about joining the next government."Such an agreement or understanding never existed," Likud Beytenu added.A Bayit Yehudi spokeswoman responded to the Likud Beytenu's allegations, saying there is no reason for the latter party to be concerned."We will be strong together with Prime Minister Netanyahu after the elections, to solve social issues and strengthen Israel's deterrence," the Bayit Yehudi said.Likud Beytenu also posted a response ad on social networks Thursday, doctoring the Bayit Yehudi advertisement to include a quote by Bennett that "even Tzipi Livni would be better than Netanyahu."Bennett said those words during the 10-month settlement construction freeze, when he was director-general of the Yesha Council.

- From: News Corp Australia Network
- July 15, 2014
MARGOT Robbie's mission to conquer Hollywood has just been given another boost in the form of a glamorous photo spread in Vanity Fair's August edition.
Posing in a retro swimsuit and sunhat, the Gold Coast-born actor shows off her incredible figure and channels the old-school glamour of Tinseltown goddess Grace Kelly.

She is set to play Jane opposite Alexander Skarsgad's Tarzan after starring opposite Chiwetel Ejiofor, Will Smith and Ralph Fiennes in three other upcoming films.
Depite her meteoric rise to success, Robbie is keeping both feet firmly on the ground.
"I'm not extravagant. I share my house in London with five roommates. I take the Tube. I intend to stay the exact same person I always was," she told Vanity Fair in the photo shoot's accompanying interview.
The actor also gave some insight into what makes Aussie actors such a hit in Hollywood.
"You don't leave Australia unless you are passionate," she told Vanity Fair.

Extending downwardly from the top surface 40 is a vertical bore 42. The vertical bore 42 communicates with the horizontal bore 30. The vertical bore 42 actually extends below the horizontal bore 30. A cylinder 50 is rotatably disposed within the bore 42.
FIG. 3 is an exploded perspective view of the cylinder 50 and its associated elements. For the following discussion, reference will primarily be made to FIGS. 2 and 3. Reference may also be made to FIG. 1.
The cylinder 50 includes a vertical bore 52 which extends downwardly from the top of the cylinder 50. The vertical bore 52 includes a top threaded portion 54. A horizontal bore 56 extends through the cylinder 50 and communicates with the vertical bore 52. While the vertical bore 52 is generally cylindrical or circular, the horizontal bore 56 is generally rectangular. The bores 56 and 52 intersect each other.
Another pair of bores, a lower roller bore 58 and an upper roller bore 62 extend into the cylinder 50 generally perpendicular to the horizontal bore 56. The bores 58 and 62 intersect the bore 56 at the bottom or lower portion of the bore 56 and adjacent to the upper portion of the bore 56. A roller 60 extends into the lower bore 58 and a roller 64 extends into the bore 62.
A spring 66 is disposed against the roller 64 for providing a bias on the roller 64 against a top surface 86 of a bar 80. The bar 80 is part of a bar assembly 78, which will be discussed below.
A set screw 68 engages a threaded upper portion 54 of the vertical bore 52. The extent to which the set screw 68 is adjusted in the threaded portion 54 varies the pressure of the spring 66 against the top surface 86 of the bar 80.
To allow the roller 64 to move under the bias of the compression spring 66, the bore 62 is slightly elongated in the vertical direction to allow for movement of the roller 64. The reason for the vertical movement of the roller 64 may be understood with reference to Figs. 1, 2, and 4.
FIG. 4 is an exploded perspective view of the bar assembly 78. The bar assembly 78 includes the bar 80 and a U-clamp 102. For the following discussion, reference will primarily be directed to FIG. 4, but reference may also be made to FIGS. 1, 2, and 3.
The bar 80 includes an outer end 82 and an inner end 84. The terms �outer� and �inner� refer to the bar with respect to the door 4 and to the vehicle chassis door frame panel 2.
As indicated in FIG. 1, the bar 80 extends through the horizontal, diagonally extending bore 30 in the block 22. The bar 80 also extends through the horizontal bore 56 in the cylinder 50. With the cylinder 50 disposed in the vertical bore 42 of the block 22, the horizontal bores 30 and 56 are generally aligned, as best shown in FIG. 2.
The bar 80 includes a top surface 86, and three intermediate stop depressions 88, 90, and 92 extend downwardly into the bar 80 from the top surface 86. The intermediate stop depressions 88, 90, and 92, are relatively shallow depressions and their leading portion, or the portion of the depressions facing towards the outer end 82 of the bar 80 are at a relatively gentle sloping angle. A rear stop depression 94, which comprises an outer limit depression, or a door wide open depression, also extends downwardly into the bar 80 from the top surface 86. The depression 94 does not includes the gently sloping portions as do the depressions 88, 90, and 92.
The depressions 88, 90, 92, and 94 receive the upper roller 64 for purposes of holding the door 4 in various open positions or locations or orientations. The outer limit depression 94 receives the roller 64 when the door 4 is at its widest opening, or at its wide open location.
When the roller 64 is disposed in the depression 94, an inner end stop element 96 is disposed against an outer surface of the block 66 adjacent to the rear portion of the horizontal bore 30 of the block 22. The inner end stop element 96 is appropriately secured to the bar 80.
At the outer or front end 82 of the bar 80 there is a reinforcing outer end fastener element appropriately secured to the bar 80. A pair of fastener apertures 100 extend through the element 98 and the bore 80.
A U-shaped clamp 102 is disposed about the strap bracket 12 and is secured to the bar 80 by appropriate fastener elements 106, shown in FIG. 1. A pair of fastener apertures 104, aligned with the fastener apertures 100 of the bar 80, receive the fasteners 106 to secure the U-clamp to the bar 80.
The cylinder 50 rotates in the bore 42 of the block 22 as the door 4 is moved between its closed position and its open position. The rotating movement of the cylinder 50, of course, moves in response to the pivoting of the bar 80 as the door moves.
As the door 4 moves outwardly a first distance, the spring biased roller 64 moves downwardly into the depression 88, and holds the door in that first position. As the door is moved outwardly a greater distance, the roller 64 moves out of the depression 88, along the tops 86 of the bar 80 and into the second depression 90. As the door is moved outwardly further, the roller 64 moves out of the depression 80, and along the top 86 and into the depression 92.
Finally, if it is desired to open the door to its widest open position, the roller 64 is moved out of the depression 92, farther along the top 86 and into the outer limit depression 94. There is a positive movement of the roller 64 both into and out of the depression 94. The positive movement is, of course, in response to the configuration of the depression 94 and to the bias on the roller 64 by the spring 66.
Movement of the bar 80 is relatively smooth on the bottom roller 60. The bottom roller 60 moves or rotates easily in its bore 58 at the bottom of the horizontal bore or slot 56 in the cylinder 50. The rollers 60 and 64 move freely and accordingly there is relatively little drag of the bar 80 as it moves in the cylinder 50 and in the block 22. The stop depressions 88, 90, 92 and 94 provide a holding friction to appropriately hold the door in the location or position or in the orientation as desired by a user of the vehicle and the apparatus 20.
While the principles of the invention have been made clear in illustrative embodiments, without departing from those principles, there may occur to those skilled in the art modifications of structure, arrangement, proportions, the elements, materials, and components used in the practice of the invention, or otherwise, which are particularly adapted to specific environments and operative requirements without departing from those principles. The appended claims are intended to cover and embrace any and all such modifications, within the limits only of the true spirit and scope of the invention.

I got this book for my cousin who loves fashion. I don't know who Lauren Canrad is and I am not the type of person who likes to follow what's in "trend". As a book lover that I am, I couldn't help but see what this book has to offer. I must say i found this book to be very informative. If you like fashion and need tips on makeup, hair and etc this book is for you.
really inspirative and helpful
best book eveeer ! <3
This book is a good intro to style and I love Lauren Conrad's style--I want the black pumps with spikes that she has!
This is such a cute book! The pictures are so clear and bright, and the writing style is great!
whoever has this book still , HURRY UP AND RETURN IT . I WANNA READ IT , I'VE BEEN ON HOLD FOR LIKE A MONTH . JUST RETURN THIS BOOK .
Very disappointing. It is simply a rehash of general style advice available in many other books.
she gives good tips for the average girl. if u want to improve your style, this is your book.
She gives REALLY good advice that'll probably come in handy and some really helpful style tips. Really good book.

BMC Software (NASDAQ: BMC) today introduced the most comprehensive Application Performance Management (APM) SaaS offering in the industry.
The new offering delivers enterprise-grade APM capabilities as a service, providing quick time to value and making APM available to every enterprise that cares about application performance. The solution is the first to integrate deep end-user experience monitoring and server-side, backend monitoring into the same management console with a SaaS delivery model. The result provides enterprises with a complete picture of application performance as seen by end users in real-time.
The new solution also delivers advanced integration with the Akamai Intelligent Platform, providing customers with extensive insight into application performance as seen by end users, even when portions of an application are being delivered using Akamai's technology.
"As a SaaS vendor ourselves, we really need to be able to see what our users are seeing. Before BMC APM, we had to do a lot of guesswork," said Q. Wade Billings, Sr. Manager of SaaS Hosting Operations at AtTask. "By bringing BMC APM into our environment we now have visibility into what the application is doing from an end-user perspective so we know before they do when there are issues arising."
BMC pioneered an approach to APM that allows IT staff to monitor the actual experience of each end user. Today's web-scale applications are much more complex, however, and often use performance optimization technologies such as content delivery networks and caching to improve the end user experience.
BMC's new release provides integration with Akamai's network, providing IT staff insight into the total end-user experience, whatever the source of the content. In addition to detecting outages and slow performance, BMC APM can help IT staff identify the best Akamai caching and acceleration strategy, improving performance even further.
"BMC's APM as a Service offering provides a very robust, end-user centric solution for companies to gain complete performance visibility for applications deployed in the public, private, and hybrid cloud environments," said Tim Knudsen, Sr. Director of Business Development, Akamai Technologies. "Akamai and BMC worked closely to integrate with BMC's offering to provide customers with unprecedented visibility into web application performance as seen by real end users, wherever they are in the world, however they connect."
BMC's APM-as-a-Service offering provides newly architected, cloud-optimized application diagnostics capabilities that help users diagnose application performance problems quickly and easily. The new diagnostics can pinpoint application delays down to an individual line of code on applications. Built to run in complex, hybrid cloud environments, the new diagnostics capabilities are firewall friendly and have a low server footprint, reducing server CPU requirements by more than half compared to traditional solutions.
"Today's mission critical applications are being developed, deployed and updated faster than ever before and are being accessed by an increasingly diverse array of end user devices and user interfaces," said Mary Johnston Turner, research vice president, Enterprise Systems Management Software IDC. "Maintaining expected end user application service levels requires real-time end-to-end visibility and root cause analysis across complex networks, infrastructure, middleware, and applications located both on premises and in the cloud. To keep end users productive and make sure their business stays competitive, IT teams need cost effective end user oriented application performance management tools that can be rapidly deployed and quickly deliver in-depth monitoring and actionable analysis for both development and IT operations teams."
BMC's APM-as-a-Service solution combines BMC End User Experience Management as a Service, BMC Application Diagnostics as a Service, and information delivered from the Akamai Intelligent Platform to provide end-to-end performance monitoring. This new solution delivers a number of important benefits:
- Quick time to value with flexible, non-intrusive deployment options for cloud, SaaS and on-premises environments
- Ease of use, with a single, integrated console for end-to-end application performance management
- Convenient management of end-user performance, regardless of where users are, what path the network traffic takes, or where the application is hosted
"The fact is, when IT isn't working for end users, it isn't working at all," said Ali Hedayati, BMC vice president and general manager for Application Management. "With our user-centric approach to application performance management, companies can be sure that their customers, their employees and their business partners are all getting the maximum leverage from their IT investment."
More information about BMC's broad portfolio of application management solutions is available at the BMC Application Management community, which provides a portal for support, education and tips.

Orage Swiss Vacation – "Skiing Is Only Part of It"
There were three places on planet earth that had snow in the Northern hemisphere this past winter. B.C., Japan and Switzerland. With trips lined up to B.C. and Switzerland we were lucky enough to hit 2 of 3. In search of a different vibe we called upon a diverse crew that consisted of steeze master and jib legend, Phil "B Dog" Casabon, freestyle / freeride pioneer JP Auclair and rounded it out with France's up and coming big mountain phenom Jeremy Prevost... and we headed off to Zurich with no idea what to expect. When it was all said and done we realized that sometimes when you dive in blind and don't put expectations on things you end up with a whole new perspective, or in our case, the realization that "skiing is only a part of it".
