Big Tit Zombies? Really Bob? I thought you were into the more highbrow stuff...tsk tsk tsk. Btw where can I get a copy of that?
Glad to see The Hobbit jump back to first after it was ran over during X-Mas day. 300mil or bust
Les Miserables, excellent film. Made me cry almost as much as The Joy Luck Club
Django excellent as well but my expectations may have been too high so it felt like a bit of a letdown. Will check it out again as most of QT's films need several viewings IMO. Talking about it last couple of days makes me feel like I'll enjoy it more the second time around. SLJ really stole the show for me
Silver Linings Playbook what a nice romantic comedy drama. Pleasantly surprised by this. I used to hate Bradley Cooper going back to Alias but I've done almost a complete 180 on him. He was great. And Jennifer Lawrence has a kicking body OMG
Cirque Du Soleil it was cool watching it in 3D but still it's like watching acrobats performing all these amazing feats on the screen just isn't the same as watching it live. The danger and ingenuity don't translate too well
Looking forward to more Leatherface next weekend may check out This is 40

Police strikes in Egypt accelerate, adding turmoil
CAIRO Strikes by Egyptian security forces spread swiftly around the country Friday, as police walked off the job or took to the streets, angry at being blamed for crackdowns on protests against the Islamist president and accusing his Muslim Brotherhood of trying to control them.
The wave of police discontent adds a new layer to Egypts turmoil and political breakdown. In a sign of the disarray, a powerful hard-line Islamist group said its members would now take over policing a southern province because most security forces in the province were on strike.
The top security official in Assiut province, Gen. Aboul-Kassem Deif, said the announcement by Gamaa Islamiya a group that in the 1990s waged an armed Islamic militant uprising but in the past two years entered politics was illegal. But he seemed to acknowledge he could not stop it.
I dont know what to do, he told The Associated Press.
Strikes by policemen and riot police were reported in at least 10 of Egypts 29 provinces, including at several stations in the capital, Cairo.
In Cairo, police demonstrated in front of the Interior Ministry, which is in charge of the security forces, and demanded the resignation of the minister, their boss.
In the Mediterranean city of Alexandria, Egypts second largest city, police closed their stations and plastered posters on the door reading, We dont want politics and in an attempt to show unity with the public Police and the people are one hand.
The police discontent comes after relentless protests and unrest around the country since late January which in turn followed an earlier wave of protests in November and December. In past weeks, protesters have taken to the streets largely in anger against Islamist President Mohammed Morsi and his Muslim Brotherhood, which the opposition accuses of trying to dominate power in the country. But other factors have fueled unrest, including a declining economy and fuel shortages.
Near daily, the demonstrations have turned into clashes with police in multiple cities, resulting in the killing of around 70 protesters. Each death has increased public anger against the security forces, fueled further by reports of torture of some activists by security agents. The force is already widely hated because of its legacy of abuses and brutality under ousted President Hosni Mubarak.
Now that has sparked a backlash by many of the lower-ranking members of the security forces. Protesting police accuse Morsi of using them to crack down on his opponents and demand the resignation of the current, Morsi-appointed interior minister, who they accuse of engineering efforts to bring Islamist sympathizers into the ministry.
Police officers in the southern city of Sohag marched in front of one station, holding signs reading, No to the Brotherhoodization of the ministry.
Police in charge of protecting the headquarters of the Muslim Brotherhood, which makes up the backbone of Morsis rule, have gone on strike, as have others tasked with escorting Morsis motorcades.
Some members of the Central Security forces the riot police force that is at the forefront of cracking down on protesters have come to near munity.
On Thursday, protesting riot police trapped the Central Securitys top commander for several hours inside their camp at the city of Port Said, refusing to deploy in the city against protesters.
On Friday, the Interior Ministry announced that the commander, Gen. Maged Nouh, had been removed from his post and replaced by his deputy, Ashraf Abdullah.
Port Said, located at the Mediterranean end of the Suez Canal, has been the center of the heaviest violence during the unrest. A police crackdown on protests there in late January left 40 dead. Protesters have been clashing with police there the past week in fighting that has killed at least eight people, including three policemen.
On Friday, the military took over security in the city as police withdrew from the street and riot police stayed in their barracks. The handover was an attempt to bring calm since protesters largely trust the army more than police.
But many fear a new wave of violence on Saturday when a court issues new verdicts and sentences in a contentious trial over a deadly soccer riot in Port Said in February 2012. A first set of verdicts on Jan. 28 in which 21 Port Said residents were sentenced to death over the riot sparked the citys initial uprising because its population sees the trial as unjust and politicized.
On Saturday, the court is scheduled to issue verdicts on around 50 more defendants, mostly Port Said residents but also including nine police officers. If the police personnel are convicted or handed heavy sentences, it will likely further fuel resentment among the security forces.
Hundreds marched through Port Said on Friday in a funeral procession for one of two protesters shot to death in fighting with police the night before, one of whom had been shot in the head. In Cairo on Friday, protesters and police fought on a main thoroughfare along the Nile River for the fifth straight day.
The mainly liberal and secular opposition says the turmoil shows that Morsi and his Islamist allies are not qualified to rule. They have accused Morsi and his Brotherhood of imposing their control and failing to seek consensus with other groups.
Morsis supporters, in turn, say the opposition is trying to use street violence to overturn their election victories. In June, Morsi became the countrys first freely elected president, and Islamists dominate parliament after elections last year.
The announcement by the Gamaa Islamiya in the southern province of Assiut raised the possibility of Islamist groups moving in to fill the void left by striking police.
The group declared its offices the security headquarters for the province and said it was organizing volunteer members to carry out police duties like patrols. Islamists in nearby provinces have spoken of doing the same.
The Gamaa was one of two main militant groups that waged a bloody campaign of violence in southern Egypt aiming to overthrow the state in the 1990s. It since forswore violence and entered politics after Mubaraks fall in 2011, but it maintains a hard-line Islamist ideology.
The Assiut security chief, Deif, accused the Gamaa of exploiting the situation to expand its influence before parliamentary elections expected in coming months.
It could enflame the situation, Deif said, and people will not accept it.MORE IN Wire NewsGARLAND, Texas One of two gunmen who opened fire with assault rifles at a Prophet Muhammad...

This is a great addition to anyones workshop. Drills then switch to screw. Big time saver. I Have several with different sized drill bits and screwdriver heads. Having them is a huge time saver and convenience. You should definitely try it.

This chuck is a must have when doing assembly projects where you want a good counter sink and a rapid transition to drill driver. Easy to use and has held up pretty well.
North Windham, CT

Had one many years ago worked great original bit lasted hundreds and hundreds of holes, It was easier to purchase new one than look for old one with sears 1 mile away. It worked great pre-drilling the first 7 holes number 8 broke the bit.
Yukon, OK

Nice to have this in a quick connect and the countersink. I think everyone should have these if you do any woodworking and switch bits for trim / driiling.
Hampshire, IL
via sears.com
I used this combination bit while building a few ******** boards and this bit is a definite time saver. I would normally use 2 drills, one with the countersink bit and the second drill with the Phillips bit. This allowed me to just use one drill and I was able to flip the bit around faster than reaching for my second drill. This is a great tool and is has quickly become one of my most useful and favorite tool.

used it for installation of cabinets, works great for per drilling holes and joining two units together.

Detroit � If you close your eyes and concentrate, you might remember when the Tigers used to be really, really good. Like, a week ago. That sheen of invincibility with their glossy starting pitchers? It�s gone for now � not gone for good � and it�s hard to figure out where it went.
Justin Verlander is virtually unrecognizable at the moment, and so is the team. It happens in a long season, but what happened again to Verlander on Sunday was concerning. It�s not inexplicable lately when he has a rough outing, and that�s inexplicable.
Another huge crowd witnessed another flop, as the Rangers pounded the Tigers 12-4 to officially turn an odd slide into an ugly slide. That�s six losses in seven games, and it could end up being just a blip. In fact, the way it�s unfolded, with every starter other than Anibal Sanchez getting knocked around, it�s likely a blip. Aces don�t turn into jokers in a week, and we�ll learn more during a tough road trip that starts today in Oakland.
Verlander�s struggles are pushing the boundaries of a blip, coming off a wobbly 2013, followed by off-season core-muscle surgery. We�ve learned not to wonder too deeply about him because he tinkers early, toys often, and usually returns to dominant form at the end. But over-tinkering can lead to over-thinking, which led to Verlander testing a new arms-over-the-head delivery Sunday.
He abandoned it early in the game, and nothing really changed. The Rangers feasted on his off-speed stuff and didn�t fear the fastball, which rarely touched 95 mph. Verlander gave up 11 hits, nine runs (six earned) in five-plus innings and struck out only one. When Alex Rios laced a two-run triple to make it 7-2 in the fifth, you could hear a smattering of boos from the sellout crowd of 42,583.
Verlander�s command was a mess � just 62 of his 109 pitches were strikes � so you can bet there�s more tinkering ahead, for better or worse.
�I�m not gonna stay where I�m at,� he said. �I�m determined. I�ve got the mental confidence to turn the page. I know how good I am, and I�m not gonna dwell on these past starts. That�s not me and it�s never been me.�
Residual effects
Verlander has surrendered five or more earned runs in three consecutive starts, one of his rockiest stretches since 2008. He�s 5-4 with a 4.04 ERA and his WHIP (walks plus hits per innings pitched) is an unseemly 1.51, the highest of his career. For comparison, his WHIP was 0.92 in his 2011 Cy Young season.
Although he�s recovered from the January surgery, he admits there could be some residual effect. What exactly it is, he doesn�t know. It�s a familiar befuddlement, as Verlander struggled early last season and didn�t regain his famous edge until late.
�Every now and then, it�ll get a little sore,� Verlander said. �I know Torii (Hunter) had a similar surgery and he said it took him a year to really feel he was back. I don�t feel pain when I�m throwing. It could still be weak, who knows? That�s not something I can concern myself with.�
It�s not something manager Brad Ausmus is concerned about either. The Tigers are 28-18 and in first place after a week of horrid pitching, so the rookie manager also leans heavily toward the Big Blip Theory, not the Big Bang Theory.
Watching the Tigers� talented rotation get pummeled is like being served cold soup for a week at your favorite restaurant. It makes no sense and it may never happen again, but you�re going to wonder about that next bowl of minestrone.
�The last couple starts haven�t been vintage Justin Verlander, but this guy is a competitor, he�ll get his kinks worked out and he�ll be back,� Ausmus said. �(Tinkering) is part of what makes him great. His stuff is great and his makeup is unbelievable. (Roger) Clemens� approach to pitching was very similar � he would tinker to try and make himself better.�
A weak week
The search for the perfect delivery can be painstaking and often fruitless. Verlander was fiddling with all sorts of release points Sunday, and while hitters didn�t know where the ball was coming from, he had no idea where it was going.
It�s magnified right now because Max Scherzer and Rick Porcello also had poor outings, and what a difference a weak-armed week makes. The Tigers had won six straight after sweeping the Red Sox, then got swept by the Indians and lost three of four to the Rangers, outscored 35-15.
This has nothing to do with the Tigers� plane troubles that made their trek to Cleveland so difficult. And I doubt it�s about over-confidence or boredom after stomping to an early lead in the division. Baseball is a funny, humbling game � heck, the world champion Red Sox have lost 10 straight � and that�s partly why Verlander isn�t freaked out.
�You�re trying to find the right pieces to fit, but it�s not like I�m questioning everything,� he said. �I�ve got the past and I�ve got the mental fortitude, so it�s only looking forward and finding it. There�s no doubt in my mind I will.�
If there was any doubt, he wouldn�t say it. Verlander falls into these ruts and claws his way out, and so do the Tigers. Slips become blips, and they certainly hope it�s nothing more than that.

Platinum Plating: Platinum can be used as a finish coating over sterling silver or copper alloys. Its bright, pure luster enhances the brilliance of gemstones and does not discolor or oxidize. Platinum plating is also characterized by its good resistance to surface abrasion, making jewelry pieces more durable against everyday and long-term wear. Over time, platinum plating will wear off and therefore will require re-plating.
To care for your plated jewelry items:
With its uniquely mystical appearance, quartz was the "rock crystal" used in ancient times to make crystal balls. It was believed to attract energy and is still considered to be spiritual today. The gemstone was once believed to be a compact form of ice. In fact, the Greeks originally named quartz "krystallos," meaning ice, but this terminology soon applied to any type of crystal.
Often identified by its six-sided prism shape, quartz is the most common mineral on Earth, found in nearly every environment throughout the globe. With a ranking of 7.0 on the Mohs Scale, it is a component of almost every rock type and occurs in virtually every color imaginable. Quartz has a great amount varieties that are well-known by other names, including amethyst, citrine, ametrine, rock crystal, agate, druzy, chalcedony, tigers eye and many more. There are also several varieties that hold the name "quartz," including rose quartz, smokey quartz and rutilated quartz.
The pale pink color of quartz is known as rose quartz, the traditional gift for couples celebrating their 2nd anniversary. It is a delicate powder pink color that ranges from transparent to translucent. Transparent rose quartz is quite rare and is usually so pale that it does not show much color, except in large sizes. The translucent quality of rose quartz is much more common and is used for jewelry and carvings.
Rose quartz is probably one of the most prized stones for its mystical properties. Known as the "Heart Stone," it is believed to have incredible powers to balance emotions and open the heart. Folklore says rose quartz can comfort brokenhearted people, bringing healing and clarity to the heart and allowing the wearer to learn to trust again. The stone is also said to foster happiness and the joy of life by bringing about contentment in love and filling one with optimism, tenderness and gentleness.
In addition to helping with romantic love, rose quartz is believed to enhance all other forms of love as well, including self-love, platonic and maternal. Its loving, nurturing energy is said to take away fears, resentment and anger and replace them with feelings of higher self-esteem and confidence. This soothing stone is also thought to balance emotions and heal emotional wounds. It is said to be especially powerful in times of stress or loss, bringing peace and calm to the wearer.
Ranging in color from nearly black to smoky brown, smoky quartz is transparent and owes its warm earthen hue to exposure to natural radioactivity. Care must be taken since its rich color will fade in the sun. Spelled either "smoky" or "smokey," this variety of quartz is often incorrectly called "smoky topaz."
Smoky quartz is believed to help dissolve negative energy, release stress and relieve depression. It is said to be a mild sedative with a relaxing effect that calms, soothes and restores balance and harmony. Folklore says the gem can embrace dark areas with light and love and therefore clear and cleanse the body both physically and emotionally. Smoky quartz is thought to be a warm, friendly and down-to-earth gem.
Rutilated quartz is a type of transparent rock crystal that contains long, fine needles of rutile crystals (titanium dioxide). These highly valued inclusions form a landscape of shining gold needles in an array of patterns that is breathtakingly beautiful. These golden inclusions are also known as Venus hair, Cupid's darts and fleches d'amour ("arrows of love"). There is a less well-known variety called tourmalinated quartz that, instead of golden rutile, forms black or dark green tourmaline crystals.
Although rutilated quartz is usually cut as a cabochon, it can be a difficult stone to attain a smooth surface without pits. This is because rutile ranks a 6.0 on the Mohs Scale, while quartz ranks 7.0. The difference in hardness between the two materials, and because of the way rutile forms inside, causes problems when cutting. Each final cut piece is unique, with no two being exactly alike. Modern folklore says rutilated quartz brings forth each person's strengths, originality and ability to relate to others.

I have had these pillows about a month. The triple chamber 600 power fill makes them sturdy and helps give good support when I sleep on my side. The volume of down seems much more dense than the last down pillows I purchased.
It is pretty firm for a down pillow, stuffed pretty full. I like it, but my husband thinks they are too thick and wants them to be a little less full.
These pillows are wonderful. Be prepared; they are very firm. Perfect for back or side sleepers. I know this brand and they are a great company. They clean the down multiple times do there's no dander or dirt, which is what causes allergies, left in the down.
I wasn't expecting that much "loft". I'm not a pillow expert, so perhaps it is my own fault: the description does tell you that it is 600 fill. I thought perhaps after a week or two, the pillows would be broken in and there would be less loft. Not the case. The quality of the product is definitely top notch, though, so if you like a pillow with a lot of loft, buy these.
These pillows are full and firm, but soft enough to snuggle down into. Well made,
If you want a firm pillow, this is not it. Otherwise, they are nice.
We love these pillows!! Great support, great price!
If you like firm down pillows , then these are the ones for you. No more falling into the pillows every time you turn in your sleep. wake up feelin well rested and ready to face your day.
If you want a really high/fluffy pillow these are a great choice. They have thinned out a little over a year, but they are still quite high. It causes problems with my neck at times, so I switch them out. When I sleep on my back they are great for under my knees.
I have been using down pillows for over a decade. I had 3 discs fused in my neck and my pillow determines if I wake up in pain or rested. The thickness of these pillows is perfect for me - in other words, I wake refreshed. I have been sleeping on these for well over a month. Because of the chambers they are as fresh and shapely as the day I bought them. I bought some for a friend who was suffering from waking in the night. He also is now sleeping through the night and waking refreshed.

Playoff chase front and center as Yanks, Tigers meet
Porcello, McCarthy each rolling into series opener at Comerica Park
The Tigers and Athletics made waves at the Trade Deadline for their acquisitions of David Price and Jon Lester, respectively, but arguably no in-season deal has worked out better than the Yankees' move to bring Brandon McCarthy in from the D-backs.
In eight games with New York, McCarthy (5-2) has posted a dazzling 1.90 ERA, struck out 51 batters and walked seven. A day before Price takes the hill in Detroit, McCarthy will make his ninth start for the Yankees on Tuesday night at Comerica Park.
Both teams are competing for a playoff spot, and the Yankees will need to leap the Tigers in the standings, and then the Mariners, for the second American League Wild Card spot. New York has won five consecutive games to pull close on Seattle, while Detroit, who was idle on Monday, trails is right on the Mariners' heels.
McCarthy's last outing was his best since joining the Yankees. The right-hander tossed a four-hitter to beat the Astros on Thursday and bring an overall ERA that sat at 5.01 when he left Arizona down a full run since the trade.
"I feel confident again," McCarthy said. "I feel like I'm able to get through situations. I wasn't there, and then you start to believe you can. It's just kind of the story of the season, riding those ups and downs."
Rick Porcello (14-8), who will start for the Tigers, one-upped McCarthy on Wednesday in a win against the Rays. The right-hander tossed a three-hitter for his Major League-leading third shutout of the year.
"When you throw consecutive pitches on the inner half or in off [the plate] and you get them swinging at it, it makes the outer half of the plate look pretty far away," Porcello said after his last outing.
Tigers: With off-day, Cabrera gets some rest
Detroit hopes Miguel Cabrera will be at full strength for the final stretch.
After getting back-to-back days off -- one during the Tigers' 13-4 win against the Twins on Sunday and another with Monday's off-day -- the reigning two-time AL MVP could return Tuesday against the Yankees.
Cabrera, who also had surgery to repair a core muscle in the offseason, is an obviously critical component to the Tigers' playoff hopes.
"I don't like to talk about my injuries or whatever I've got in my body right now," Cabrera said last week. "The only thing I can say is I'm going to be out there every day and try to play hard. It doesn't matter what I have. I try to play my best. Hopefully I can do my job and hopefully I can help my team to win more games and hopefully we can win the division."
Yankees: Teixeira, Gardner nursing injuries
Add an injured left hamstring to the seemingly never-ending list of ailments for Mark Teixeira, who did not play in Monday's game against the Royals.
The injury is not expected to be serious and Teixeira was available to pinch-hit on Monday, but with New York playing in 13 straight games, the Yankees decided to give him the day off.
"This is a brutal stretch of games, and we've got some guys banged up, so any opportunity to get some rest, we're going to try to take advantage of it," Teixeira said.
The Yankees were also without Brett Gardner, who missed his second straight game after fouling a ball off his right ankle on Saturday.
"I'm encouraged with the way it feels today, hopefully I can do some things on it today and get back to full speed [Tuesday]," said Gardner. "I feel a lot better today than I did [Sunday]."
Worth noting
• Porcello received a loss the last time he faced New York despite limiting the Yankees to one run in seven innings. The Tigers lost that game, 1-0.
• The Yankees' win streak is tied for their season high. They last won six straight games from July 1-6 of last season.

Business Consultant Interview
I applied through a recruiter. The process took 3+ weeks – interviewed at Eze Software (New York, NY (US)) in February 2014.
The interview process began with the EzeSoft recruiter contacting me from the Boston office about their LDP opportunity. The recruiter took down information about my experience and scheduled a phone interview with a member of the HR team. The said HR member completely forgot about my scheduled phone interview which meant I had to reach out after waiting an hour for the call. After finally getting in touch with the interviewer and conducting a full-interview, the HR member thought I was too experienced for the LDP position and scheduled me for a Consultant role. This meant having to do another phone interview with the same interviewer at a different time. They then requested I come in to meet with the team where I was scheduled to meet with 4 consultants. Since one of the consultants was unavailable, I was requested to come in the office at another time. To sum it up, the interview process was totally unorganized and utterly frustrating.

First there was the initial phone interview which last about 5 minutes. This was very simple and the recruiter basically went down my resume and asked questions. Then there is a Skype interview in which you interview with two different employees. There is a case question that was more of a riddle.

Phone interview. Pretty standard. The lady interviewing me was very nice. There was plenty of room for my questions and she answered all of them with details. The position seemed much more interesting during and after the interview opposed to brief description online. However, don't even bother if you don't have strong financial industry experience.

I applied online. The process took 3 weeks – interviewed at Eze Software (New York, NY (US)).
I applied online and received an email from their recruiter, Laura Stapleton, about 2 weeks after that submission. We scheduled an initial, 30-minute phone conversation by email. The phone conversation was pretty straightforward. She asked about the experiences that I placed on my resume, why I was interested in the position, and what I knew about Eze Castle and about the OMS software. I strongly suggest doing your homework before this phone conversation so that you can answer these questions intelligibly.
At the end of the phone interview Laura asked me what my availability was to do an in-person interview with a few of the managers. I provided her with that information and we set up the in-person interview for the next week. The in-person interview was a little over an hour long, and I interviewed with two separate managers. The first manager asked me a lot of questions about my personal and education background to get a fit for whether or not my experiences made me well suited for the position. This interview took up the bulk of our time together. The second manager gave me a brainteaser which took me about 10 minutes to solve, and asked a few questions afterwards.
After the interview, Laura emailed me the same day to let me know that I was invited to Round 2 of the interview process. We scheduled round 2 via email and I went into the interview the following week. During Round 2, I interviewed with 2 directors. Both directors gave me a logic question, and asked additional questions about my background and why Eze Castle. They also provided a lot of detail about the role. Both interviewers were very professional, although I would describe one interviewer as "tough." The tone of the interview was extremely fast paced with lots of tough questions, that I would liken to a finance interview. At one point he asked me why Eze Castle. When I provided him with an answer, he stated that I could have gotten that off of the company website, and that I needed to provide him with a different answer (which I did). It was questions/comments like this one that would make me describe that interview as "tough."
I received an email from Laura about a week after that interview notifying me that although they were impressed by my interviews, they ultimately went with a candidate with more industry experience. I certainly can't blame them because I had zero financial industry experience. Overall, I thought the interview process was fair, professional, and well-organized.Interview Questions
- I had three different brainteasers throughout the course of the interview process. If you go online and spend about 3 hours on websites dedicated to preparing you for brainteaser interviews, you'll be fine. Answer Question

I applied through an employee referral. The process took a day – interviewed at Eze Software (New York, NY (US)) in May 2012.
Phone interview was very basic. In person interview consisted of 2 interviews, one on one. The first one was terrible, the woman was absolutely rude and very clearly trying to throw you off your game. The second individual was extremely nice, even when he threw a logic question at me, which I didn't get (and yes, they always present you with at least one logic question so be prepared).
Be aware that because you have to deal with difficult clients, the interviews are somewhat rigorous, and the interviewers try to see if you can withstand rude individuals. If you like that kind of environment, then go for it.
This definitely wasn't for me.
Also, you are expected to give up some of your weekends in order to ensure upgrades are completed smoothly. This would be okay if they were adequately compensating you, but they only pay around $50K which is too little relative to the amount of hours they want you to put in (7am-7pm).
HR reached out to me with a generic email 3 days later with a NO.
A tip - make you sure you work extensively on the questionnaire you are required to send out before the interview. It has numerous questions which take a couple of hours to answer thoroughly. And they use those very questions, as well as your cover letter, to assess you during the interview.Interview Questions

I applied through a recruiter. The process took a week – interviewed at Eze Software (New York, NY (US)) in September 2011.
The interview process was over within a week, which was impressive. Recruiter contacted over the phone. Followed by group interview. This was followed by three 1:1 face interviews with senior management team. And finally a phone interview with a senior partner. They were very interested in hobbies and activities, I guess to assess availability for overtime work.

I applied online. The process took 2 weeks – interviewed at Eze Software in July 2011.
Started with a one to one interview with the members of local team in Australia. Went well. More to do with the work mentioned on the resume. Were very friendly and gave good insight into Eze castle. Followed with another senior from HongKong. Again about previous work experience. went well.
Followed with a couple more from US. Last one with COO again why you want to join eze castle.
I thought I had real good chances. I contacted them to give me an indication as I had another prospective offer. Was called and told that they cannot extend an offer as there were some concerns in the latter stages. My only disappointment was that if there were any concerned why were they not raised during interviews :)
Anyways i think they are not transparent on the final decision they make.Interview Questions

I applied through a recruiter. The process took a week – interviewed at Eze Software in November 2010.
It started with a phone interview with HR. Standard questions. Strength, weaknesses, what do you do for fun, Why Eze and why this position. This was followed by a 1 on 1 interview at their office in the next few days. Again, it was about my background and why Eze. Asked me to run through my resume. Again, what do i do for fun. Also, i was asked if there was something i feel i lack and would want to improve upon from a professional setting. I messed up the answer. Btw, this was supposed to followed my one more phone interview with someone senior in the company.
