I absolutely adore women but feel that treating them like fragile creatures who can't open doors or move chairs is a form of a patronising insult. However politeness and consideration should be genderless and applied to all - I've held many a door open for a guy/girl walking close behind me. It's sort of embarrassing to write this as it all seems a bit obvious and even as I write I feel as if I'm being a bit twee and stating the obvious. (Philip Sidney the perfect Renaissance man during his famous bit of chivalry told them to give the water to a man after all even then).
Make mistakes. Quite amusing and to support my choice I made a grammatical error on this and went back and corrected it. :)
I swelled up and could not walk about for about 3 days. For a long time afterwards I had a sort of burning sensation in my balls during sex but eventually it went away, (it wasn't necessarily a negative feeling just different). I have absolutely no regrets and would do it again. I feel the choice of who to be thus changed should be the man rather than the woman as it is a relatively minor operation.
The longest lived people statistically speaking come from a village in Italy and they believe in only light exercise. Most exercise freaks seem to die young like the guy who invented jogging. But I do jump on tables and chairs whilst playing a solo in Johnny B Goode and do the occasional duck walk too.
A bio of one of the USA's most successful seminal rockers Ricky Nelson, War Of The Worlds in the time period and setting of the book, Soul Music by Terry Pratchett and a really graphic bio of Oscar Wilde,
For sure! After yes of phone sex with a long distance relationship, I am a master at dirty talking and basically setting up a story or scene. I also like to talk dirty to myself with I am alone, just masterbating...it really adds to the experience. Sex can fulfill the sense of touch, sense of emotion, sense of taste, sense of smell, sense of sight, and with a little dirty talking can fulfill our sense of hearing...an all around experience! MMM totally agree with this.
I once knee jerked whilst receiving oral sex and my partner ended up with a black eye. This without going into detail created a lot of social problems.
It's time you all grew up now and start to live together sensibly you've been around long enough and know the right way to behave even though you don't, (which I now realise is more or less the same advice the alien gave in The Day The Earth Stood Still.). :)
I thought this question was about which were the best written shows not necessarily which shows you personally liked which may or may not be the same thing. I have great admiration for a number of US writers Paul Simon in particular and you can see his influence in spin off shows like the Odd Couple. To have the skill and depth of feeling to illustrate humourously the problems of two conflicting personalities requires an impressive talent. Or Joseph Heller who's style in my opinion highly influenced Richard Hooker who wrote MASH whereby the ideals of the 60's are presented through the brilliant Grouch Marxesque one liners of Haweye Pierce ''Oh when the war is finished around here they'll take it on the road. '' - Where war is compared to a fabricated money making theatrical exercise. I therefore feel that such an issue requires more than a ''hit parade'' reaction and hope I have gone some little way in illustrating that.
As a parent I do sympathize with your worry but as your son is over 16 aren't all those sort of decisions up to him? When I was his age I was a member of the RAF and my parents had no control over my sporting activities, (even though most of my time was spent avoiding such physical exertion.) or health issues for example they couldn't stop me smoking.
I believe that there is a law in the Isle of Man that is yet to be repealed that says Scotsmen wearing a kilt can be shot on sight. However I don't think you'd get away with it, (yes of course I mean wearing the kilt). There is also another law and I think it's still active and in use where criminals can receive corporal punishment for certain crimes.n.b for those who are unsure of where the Isle of Man is it is a small island between Ireland and England more or less on a level with Liverpool. It has semi independence from the U.K. and is famous for motor bike racing, fairy tales and cats with no tails. It is a lovely place covered in fir trees with really nice beaches and a sort of attractive Edwardian lady gone to seed atmosphere.
Usually it's the unexpected. When I am not looking for anyone or not feeling desperate that's when I meet somebody. My advice would be to relax about it and not focus on it just go with the flow and something will happen. As for which mode to practise I feel the same way about that - whatever presents itself. Of course you have to be in circulation but I mean not to concentrate so hard on it. There is no best place more like best situation - something like in a supermarket and you ask someone about their opinion on some daft product or something and that can lead elsewhere - but the point is the initial contact is genuine - a moment of mutual camaraderie if you like.
Most so called horror movies aren't really frightening just nauseating with graphic detail like watching some surgery in a documentary. I like some of the old gothic style ones but strictly for laughs with outrageous references like ''The Prince of Darkness.'' (good name for a band). Since the cold sweats of the lived through small hours of my divorce no piece of film can really frighten me ever again. I like spoof horror and can visualize a scene where the horrible thingy - werewolf or whatever is getting ever closer and the victim is in a car but instead of frantically failing to start the engine she can't get her seat belt fastened. :)
Both and a grunter.
The Rolling Stones. (they play in lots of football grounds).
My partner gets really annoyed when I use one as she knows I've had a vasectomy. :)
So, I prefer Coke Zero... how does that define me? Is my existence on Lush now defined by a simple Zero?But.. if but adding a little Scotch, does is make me more Scottish? or more.... Should I now borrow a kilt and expose myself to the grasshoppers?So I guess... I do Agree or not Scotch and coke aaaaaaaaggggggggghhhhhhhhhh!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! that is blasphemy.
I couldn't help it. As much as I thought it might be a really bad idea, as several here told me, we ended up doing it yesterday. We've been walking together for weeks now and she invited me in for a cold drink when we circled back to her place. Her husband was out on the road again and after pouring me some juice she said she needed a quick shower and she'd be right back. I said ok and waited for her in the kitchen and when she came back all she had on was a bath towel. I was surprised but she acted like it was no big deal. Then she told me I was welcome to use her shower if I felt like one too. I said I was going to be going and she smiled at me and said come on, she's even be willing to help me if I wanted, and then she dropped her towel on the floor, standing there butt naked close enough for me to reach out and touch her. Now I don't know how any man could resist a naked woman like that, but I certainly couldn't - and if that makes me an jerk because she's married, then that's what I am. Fact is that her husband has been cheating on her and she hadn't had sex for over a year, and let me tell you - that was pretty obvious when we got into it. I've never been with a woman as horny and sex-starved as her, she was so wet she was dripping before I plunged in, and I loved every minute of it. The only problem now, is we didn't use any protection as neither of us had anything. She said it would be fine, just not to come in her, which I didn't think would be a problem. Well, after keeping total control during two of her orgasms, she really lost it on the third one and I ended up losing it too and ejaculated deep inside her. She was pissed at me afterwards when she realized what happened, and then she told me she wasn't on the pill and that this was the worst time for that to happen. Now I'm worried I may have gotten her pregnant and I don't have a clue on how to handle that. Isn't there such a thing as the morning after pill? As for your question about the morality of it all don't be silly you've given us several highly detailed incidents to date and obviously have the morals of an alley cat and the best of luck to you.
I suppose Sean Connery is the best but I don't like the Bond formula writing and the stretching of believability (even allowing for the far fetched stories) for example Oddjob killing the guy to get the gold back but crushing the car so the gold had to be separated from the crushed car when all he had to do was take the gold out of the boot (trunk) and put it in the other car which he drove away with the crushed one. I prefer the stuff John Le Carr comes out with - realistic and amoral intelligence novels. Mind having stopped watching them a long time ago my judgement doesn't really include the new Bonds like Timothy Dalton. :)
really? sounds like deeper issues. This socalled trend has been going for 10 15 yrs ,pretty long trend. Oh come on seems someone wants to make others out to be sick in some way. Its just cleaner and sexier. It has nothing to do with age. So if you are with a 60 yr old gorgeous woman that felt prettier and cleaner shaved or with a sexy little strip you would feel like a pedophile to make love to her. wow It matters little how long the trend has been going on. The fact is, that by stating trend you're admitting it is a trend or fashion. The question I posed was that a lot of people in my opinion will favour the shaved look more from a trendy point of view rather than the stated aesthetic one. I don't find the issue all that important and am quite amused by your pseudo psycho ''deeper issues'' implication whatever the inference is. As for the ''sexy little strip'' my current girl friend does sport one so presumably I have the best of both worlds.
Last time I had a bf on valentines day was a year ago. All I got was a good bye fuck and a broken heart. That's terrible I hope it mends soon and that you're not totally disillusioned with blokes.
Haven't met him yet.
I'm just a perverted dirty old man (but quite hygienic) and hate all acronyms. OK?
I suppose this depends on what your personal accent or mode of pronounciation is as everybody has an accent even people from the U.S.A. The accent of my home area I've been told appeals to US citizens however if they heard it in its dialect form they would only be able to communicate with body language as even the rest of the UK finds it difficult. ''Y'aal reet hinny - fancy gannin oot t'neet it's wor Jacky's treat we'll have roast tatties and yam made soup?''http://www.youtube.com/watch?NR=1&v=PNMbbo5je_0&feature=endscreen
I'm told the loudest scream in rock history is Roger Daltry at the end of the lead break in Won't Get Fooled Again dunno if that counts but it's great!!!! The Pick of Doom illustrated this to perfection.
I'm very attracted to older men (generally late 20s to early 50s), but I personally wouldn't be able to date someone older than 35, I don't think. Not unless there was amazing chemistry between us, anyway. As for younger guys...18 (and therefore not jail bait) is definitely the youngest I'd go for, and he'd have to both act and look mature. I wouldn't be interested otherwise. Other people can date whoever they want, though. As long as the relationship is consensual and both parties are of legal age, I don't think there's a problem. I mean, age so rarely determines one's level of maturity, and to me that's what matters most. I know people who are pushing 40 who still act like they're in high school, so obviously I don't put much weight in the so-called correlation between age and maturity. I know everything is relative but your definition of an older man which includes someone in their 20's made me smile but please don't be annoyed it's not a sneering smile. :)
To me a gentleman is one who considers other peoples feelings, whose word is his bond and who is polite to all without being sycophantic.
Aha we've flirted with this issue before when I mentioned my inclination towards .. now how did Wellmademale put it when I mentioned buying matching napkins for dining room furniture something like ''not to have a smidgeon of interior decorator in your genes''. Well I clean the house ever week, the toilet (sorry to our US friends - the bathroom) every day, I take my shoes off at the front door and have a pair of slippers with a heart design on them in pink (my girlfriend said only I would have bought them), I like cooking especially for friends, I am missing the sports gene - whenever an event of any sporting activity is on the telly it's worse then soap operas (no I don't like them - slight recovery of the macho feel there), one of my favourite movies is An Affair to Remember with Cary Grant and Deborah Kerr or The Apartment with Shirley Maclaine and Jack Lemon, I love the company of women and would rather have a dinner date than go paint balling, I thought I was getting obsessed with organisation - too anal retentive because I plan even how to go from one room to another picking up things on the way etc and a female friend tells me that is what women do all the time which is why a lot of men think things just sort of happen - her words and is natural as I live alone. When my girlfriend is coming for a visit and she is today :) I go and buy a single flower that goes in a special little vase I have bought and beside it will be her favourite snack - a mixture of eggs, mayonnaisse, cheese and onions with crusty brown bread rolls. Even now a lifetime after it happened I get emotional about the death of my childhood cat killed in an accident. But the conclusion of all this is that I have no problem admitting these things and have no doubts about my sexuality this is just for fun true though it is, and personally I am suspicious of lusty rugby players with hairy armpits who sing bawdy songs whilst drapping their arms over each others shoulders. :)

Energy companies are subject to increasing oversight from a broad array of regulators. Part of the challenge of managing the legal and reputational risk that can arise from such oversight is ensuring that the company has built a culture of compliance. The other part of the challenge for corporate counsel is knowing what constitutes an appropriate culture of compliance. There is no single answer to this question because companies are different. The following questions are intended to help corporate counsel assess what may or may not be missing at their own companies and to anticipate the kinds of questions regulators are asking on a more frequent basis.
1. Do You Really Have a Compliance Program?
This might seem like an odd question, but not all companies can answer "yes." Taking into account that the details of a compliance program will vary based on company size, location, lines of business and other factors, an energy company compliance program should include:
- The conscious adoption of a formal program shaped around a company's business that is intended to promote business activities that comport with the law.
- A statement from senior management that the company expects all employees to comply with the laws applicable to their business activities.
- The identification of compliance resources available to oversee and assist employees, including an independent senior compliance officer and legal resources.
- Policies and procedures that address the areas of law most applicable to the company and provide guidance on how to find additional help.
- Implementation of the compliance program in a way that ensures that all employees are aware of it.
Every company should undertake an honest assessment of whether its compliance program contains each of these elements. That will be the first step in ensuring that the company has developed and implemented a robust compliance program and thus can demonstrate that it has built a firm culture of compliance.

Reviews of Heritage Woods of Belvidere
Average Rating: based on 3 Reviews
I visited this facility
The people at Heritage Woods of Belvidere were very friendly. Any of the staff that we ran into, they seemed very friendly and helpful. The facility is very much clean.
I am/was a resident of this facility
I'm very happy with Heritage Woods. The staff are friendly; they're very nice folks. The facility is clean and well kept. Everything about them is great except the food. The food sucks! The taste is "institutional", the quality is sub-par from what we're paying. It's below average.
I am a friend or relative of a resident
The amenities were very nice, fairly new facility/building. Offered activities for the residents, movie nights, trips within the community. Staff were patient, caring and understanding with my grandmother. Staff where able to explain things clearly related to my grandmother's health, medications, routine, meal times, etc. Administrators tried to overcharge for the monthly 'rent' and for utilities that we never requested/setup. The space my grandma was in was small, but sufficient, provided a little fridge and microwave, sink, big bathroom, view of the road/fields - good lighting. Dining area was accommodating to family and guests. Elevators seemed like they were located quite a distance from the dining hall, "living room", activity room; however they were located at the center on the living quarters. If a resident (i.e. my grandmother) was only so so at walking/somewhat weak the dining hall/activity areas seemed too far and would need a wheelchair. Each floor in center (by elevators) had a seating area with couches/tv, laundry rooms, nursing office

Residents blast postal proposal
Mail official: Consolidation will not affect delivery quality
Fort Worth District Manager Tim Vierling assured people Wednesday that mail service would not be interrupted if proposed changes were made to the postal processing center in Wichita Falls — but some Wichita Falls customers remained skeptical.
In a public meeting at Midwestern State University, several dozen people, some of whom are postal employees, turned up to voice their thoughts and concerns about the proposed consolidation of the Wichita Falls mail processing plant with the Fort Worth facility.
The proposition could save $2.2 million dollars for the U.S Postal Service, which is continually losing business, Vierling said. That is cost they are trying to avoid trickling down to the consumer.
Using Area Mail Processing, or AMP, would be very cost effective, Vierling said, and he assured patrons their service would not be interrupted, calling the change mostly transparent. In some instances, the service standards — or time it takes for mail to get to its destination — could improve.
But Wichita Falls residents stood strong. Scotland Mayor Pro Tem Jerry Smith said, "There is no way mail can make a 290-mile trip in the same amount of time as a 30-mile trip."
Vierling described the reasoning behind the logic: By taking two facilities that are each working at half-capacity and combining them, the postal service can eliminate an estimated 33 total payroll positions. That, coupled with machine maintenance and transportation, can saved the organization projected millions.
Wichita Falls postal employees were assured they would not lose their jobs, although they may be assigned different positions or locations.
But some residents still did not agree. The battle became numbers versus service, and Vierling continued to insist service would not be compromised.
He quoted the numbers repeatedly: millions of dollars have been lost in the past few years; the amount of mail going through the system has greatly decreased; the low capacity of some of the facilities that were established in higher-capacity times is now draining to costs.
"The responsible thing to do is to look at our operations," Vierling said.
Smith referred to his earlier years working for a Fortune-500 company. "If the human is not included in the equation, it's a bad business decision," he said.
Former Wichita Falls postmaster Robie Christie expressed his position. He explained that throughout all the comments, a phrase rang in his head: "If you always do what you've always done, you'll always get what you always got."
Christie said over the years, machines have taken over and small changes, like this proposed consolidation is said to be, have continued to diminish the quality of service produced by the USPS.
But Vierling insisted quality will not diminish and mail will continue to arrive on time. For the outlying cities of Wichita Falls, the only thing changing is the distance the truck travels.
He said when residents of Iowa Park, Burkburnett and similar towns drop their letters into the mailbox for local delivery, it is picked up and taken to the Wichita Falls processing facility. It is then sorted and prepped to return to the smaller station and be delivered to a mailbox. Under the proposed setup, the letter goes to Fort Worth, where it is immediately sorted and taken back for delivery.
Steven Goin suggested combining the Fort Worth facility with one of its closer neighbors, like facilities in Dallas or Coppell.
That has already been done, Vierling said, pointing out that a similar AMP consolidation was done recently with the Dallas and Coppell facilities.
Under the proposed system, mail sent from Wichita Falls would be postmarked in Fort Worth. If a Wichita Falls postmark was desired, however, the consumer could take the item to a Wichita Falls post office and have it done there.
The proposal change is still in the study phase and comments and concerns from Wednesday's meeting will be included in the proposal.
Additional comments on the issue can be submitted to Consumer Affairs Manager, Ft Worth District, 4600 Mark IV Pky, Fort Worth, TX 76161-9631.

Amid turmoil, new Illinois governor nears 100 days
"It seems to me that the name has changed but the results are the same," McKenna said.
Other Republicans offer a more charitable assessment.
Doug Whitley, head of the Illinois State Chamber of Commerce, complimented Quinn for opening up the governor's office by meeting with lawmakers and interest groups from across the political spectrum. Quinn has shown leadership by tackling the budget deficit, statewide construction needs, ethics and more, he said.
Still, Whitley – who explored a run for governor earlier this year – said Quinn hasn't closed the sale on his ideas yet.
"I don't see a General Assembly convinced that Pat Quinn's solutions are the ones they want to embrace," Whitley said.
Quinn has been criticized on several fronts – for keeping some former Blagojevich aides in key posts, for nominating a 29-year-old with no law enforcement experience to run the state police, for flip-flopping on how Barack Obama's vacant Senate seat should have been filled.
But all that has been minor. He has avoided anything approaching real scandal.
Meanwhile, he succeeded in getting lawmakers to approve a small-scale public works program meant to create quick construction jobs while negotiations continue on an even larger program.
And he took advantage of the spotlight that comes with the governor's office by making one public appearance after another. He celebrated Easter with children, appeared at news conferences to talk about swine flu, crisscrossed the state to promote his budget plan and confronted Statehouse rallies critical of his proposals.
"What I wanted to do from the outset, right away, was get to every corner of Illinois and let the people, the voters, know there was a new governor with a new style and a new approach – a new style, a new substance, too," Quinn said.
"I think we were successful in that," he said. "Today, everywhere I go, people are happy that I'm the governor and my predecessor is not."
Associated Press Writer Deanna Bellandi contributed to this report from Chicago.

Indie director Tom DiCillo and actor Michael Pitt played nice on stage at the Gen Art Cinema Circle premiere of the paparazzi-themed film Delirious last week at the Tribeca Grand in Manhattan. Then afterward, away from the crowd, the director tore the actor—best known for his Kurt Cobain-inspired character in Gus Van Sant's Last Days—a new one.
Pitt didn't show up for red-carpet arrivals but appeared on stage at the panel discussion that followed. Pitt praised the script. DiCillo (director of Living in Oblivion) told the audience that the 26-year-old Pitt, who plays a homeless hunk, came up with the idea of jumping out of a dumpster in the film. DiCillo did share this tidbit: "This is the first time that I have seen Michael Pitt in a year-and-a-half. Okay, I think he gives the performance of a lifetime….

After the onstage niceties, however, Radar prodded DiCillo about Pitt's red carpet no-show. "He's an idiot," Dicillo said. "I can't go into it right now. I had no idea he was gonna show up. Of course, I invited him, but he said he wasn't gonna come. Beyond comprehension. He's an idiot."
Pitt's explanation for his partial absence (and sudden appearance): "I had band rehearsal," he explained. His band is called Pagoda. And practice, it seems, is important.

Education Dept. Drops Columbia Probe
Controversial Mideast studies professor was involved in 'steering' charge
Earlier this week, the U.S. Department of Education's New York Office for Civil Rights dropped an investigation into a Columbia University professor who allegedly "steered" a Jewish student away from taking a class on the Middle East with a second professor who has been accused of cultivating classroom environments hostile to pro-Israel views. According to a spokesperson, Barnard, the all-women college at Columbia at which the professor under investigation, Rachel McDermott, teaches, was notified that the DOE has dismissed the complaint. In a letter to Barnard President Debora Spar, the Office for Civil Rights (OCR) concluded, "There were conflicting versions regarding what transpired at the meeting" between McDermott and the student. "Neither the complainant nor the student provided, and OCR did not find, any evidence other than the student's assertions to contradict [McDermott]'s statements." McDermott reportedly recalled that her advice to the student was not based on the student's Jewishness and that she had "no personal knowledge or opinion," to quote the letter, "of the professor's method or delivery of instruction." OCR added that it found no evidence that McDermott had done what had been alleged with any other student. Also, according to OCR, the class in question was a senior seminar and the student, then a first-year, would have been ineligible to take it.
"I am grateful for the overwhelming support I have received from my colleagues, especially those in the Religion and [Middle Eastern, South Asian and African Studies] Departments, as well as current and former students and many others within the Barnard and Columbia community and beyond," McDermott said in a statement. Added Spar, "Professor McDermott is beloved by her students and a highly regarded member of the Barnard community. We were happy to cooperate fully with the Office of Civil Rights and were pleased—though not surprised—to receive this favorable determination."
In October, David Fine reported in Tablet Magazine that McDermott had advised an Orthodox student not to take a class taught by Professor Joseph Massad, who was one of several professors featured in the 2005 David Project-produced documentary Columbia Unbecoming that alleged a culture of tolerating anti-Israel views at the Middle Eastern studies department of the Ivy League university. The complaint was lodged by a pro-Israel group called
Scholars for Peace in the Middle East Institute for Jewish & Community Research, whose legal task force head, Kenneth L. Marcus, explained that the purpose of the complaint was less to target the alleged "steering" of McDermott and more the alleged bias of Massad.
"I think that OCR got it wrong factually, but in terms of the law they established a very important principle, and I'm glad that we filed this suit," Marcus said this evening. "It is extremely helpful that they did nothing in this opinion that undermines the principle that they established before. This will make university administrators more sensitive to the rights of Jewish students." He argued that, "until this case, there had been no precedent establishing that Jewish students have rights against racial steering in higher education. This provides one more right than students had before." He said his group has the right of appeal, and that they are considering it.
The DOE Office for Civil Rights did not return requests for comment.

DIAMOND BOOBIES ( o Y o )
Remember no one is perfect, everyone's ass has a crack in it.
My doctor had me taking Unisom 25mg for nausea when I was in my first trimester. I know for a fact they are safe. They do help with staying asleep for longer. Lately I've been having trouble finding a comfortable position as well. I hear body pillows help enormously.
I find the pee cycle much more annoying than anything else! I can deal with just looking like I put on a few pounds, instead of looking pregnant. I can deal with the acne, and decreased sex drive. But, peeing all the time! And it's only at night.
I've had this OCD ritual thing since I was little. I drink water until I feel like my throat is clear, pee, and go to bed. Well, that little ritual has got me up and peeing every 20-30 minutes now. It takes forever to go to bed!

May Flowers Handprint Shopping Bag
For your privacy, Lakeshore will not be sending your information to any third party.
|Pin It
This colorful spring craft provides families with a precious—and practical—keepsake!
This activity is appropriate for:
pre-k – 3rd grade / 4 – 8 years
You will need:
- Decorate-Your-Own Tote Bags - Set of 15
- Superbright Liquid Tempera Paint - 1 Pint (green and a variety of spring colors)
- Classroom Paintbrushes - Set of 24
- Shallow aluminum pie tins or plates
- Recycled newspaper or butcher paper
- Circular sponges (about 2 inches in diameter)—one per paint color
Before you begin:
- Set up a painting station in your classroom with space for three to four students to work at one time.
- Cover the table with a layer of newspaper or butcher paper to protect the surface.
- Place a pie tin or plate on the table for each paint color you plan to use. Then pour a shallow layer of paint into each tin or plate.
- Invite three to four students at a time to join you at the painting station.
- Give each student a tote bag and have students place their tote bag flat on the table in front of them.
- Instruct students to place a flat sheet of newspaper or butcher paper inside the tote bag so that the paint will not bleed through.
- Have students dip a circular sponge into a paint color and stamp it onto the middle of their bag. This will create the center of their flower.
- Have students choose a different paint color for the handprint flower petals. Help each student dip a hand into their chosen paint color and place their painted hand onto the bag so their fingertips are facing outward from the circle, toward the outer edges of the bag. Repeat this process four more times around the center circle so that the five handprints create the flower petals.
- Have students complete the flower painting by using a paintbrush to add a green stem and leaves, if desired.
- After the paint has dried, encourage students to take their springtime flower bag home to use as a shopping bag—or as a gift for their mom!

KLA-Tencor Corporation is an American manufacturing company based in Milpitas, California. It supplies process control and yield management products for the semiconductor, data storage, LED, and related nanoelectronics industries. The company's products, software and services are intended for all phases of integrated circuit production. [3]
KLA-Tencor was formed in April 1997 through the merger of KLA Instruments (KLA) and Tencor Instruments (Tencor), two long-time leaders in the semiconductor equipment industry. Prior to the merger, both businesses served a segment of the inspection and metrology area; with KLA focused on defect inspection solutions and Tencor placing its emphasis on metrology solutions. [3]
KLA was named after its founders, Ken Levy and Bob Anderson. The word "Tencor" came about because the founder of Tencor, Karel Urbanek, wanted a two syllable name that would be easy to remember.[3]
Since the merger in 1997, KLA-Tencor has acquired the following companies:[3]
• Amray Inc., 1998
• Nanopro GmbH, 1998
• The Quantox product line from Keithley Instruments, Inc, 1998
• The Ultrapointe subsidiary of Uniphase Corporation, 1998
• ACME Systems Inc., 1999
• Fab Solutions, from ObjectSpace Inc., 2000
• FINLE Technologies, Inc., 2000
• Phase Metrics, 2001
• Candela Instruments, 2004
• Wafer Inspection Systems business of Inspex, Inc., 2004
• ADE Corporation, 2006
• OnWafer Technologies, 2007
• SensArray Corporation, 2007
• Therma-Wave Corporation, 2007
• ICOS Vision Systems Corporation NV, 2008
• Microelectronic Inspection Equipment (MIE) business unit of Vistec Semiconductor Systems, 2008
• Ambios Technology, 2010
• Luminescent Technologies, 2014
KLA-Tencor serves the semiconductor equipment industry and also a number of other industries, including the light emitting diode (LED), data storage and photovoltaic industries, as well as general materials research.
KLA-Tencor's comprehensive portfolio of defect inspection and metrology products and solutions are designed to help integrated circuit manufacturers accelerate their development and production ramp cycles, to achieve higher and more stable semiconductor die yields and to improve overall profitability. KLA-Tencor's products are also used in a number of related industries, including wafer manufacturing, mask manufacturing, solar process development and control, medical device manufacturing, light emitting diode (LED) and data storage manufacturing, and general materials research.[3]

"Aloha is the movie equivalent of a man in a donkey suit with a tree branch growing out of his forehead. I don't know what the fuck this movie is. It feels like Cameron Crowe tried to make some Pynchonesque contemporary riff on Casablanca, then either or he or the studio chickened out halfway through and tried to turn it back into Jerry Maguire. But don't confuse Aloha with hackwork. It's more like a mad scientist had 10 beakers bubbling, and instead of unlocking cold fusion, he blew up his lab and melted an ear. I swear, this movie is like some bastard offspring of Casablanca, Inherent Vice, 'Goosebumps,' and 'Baywatch Hawaii.' My takeaway? Making movies is hard, yo."
~ Vince Mancini
"We don't defy the laws of physics: There are no flying men or cars in this movie. So it made sense to do it old-school: real vehicles and real human beings in the desert. We shot the movie more or less in continuity, because the cars and the characters get really banged up along the way. The biggest benefit of digital technology for me was that the cameras were smaller and much more agile, so you could put them anywhere. We also spent a huge amount of time on spatial awareness—making sure the viewer could follow the action and understand what was happening. There has to be a strong causal connection from one shot to the next, just the same way that in music, there has to be a connection from one note to the next. Otherwise it's just noise. Too often, if you just cram a lot of stuff into the frame, you get the illusion of a fast pace. But there's no coherence. It doesn't flow. It comes off as headbanging music, and it can be exhausting. We storyboarded the movie before we had a script: We had 3,500 boards, which helps the cast and crew understand how everything is going to fit together. Movies are getting faster and faster. The Road Warrior had 1,200 cuts. This one has 2,700 cuts. You have to treat it like a symphony."
~ George Miller

5 favorite Bill Murray performances
LOS ANGELES This week, with the opening of the historical romance "Hyde Park on Hudson," I finally get to do a Five Most list I've been thinking about for a while now: my favorite Bill Murray performances.
His take on President Franklin Delano Roosevelt may not be some of his best work, but it's an unexpected bit of casting, and it provides a great opportunity to reflect on the fantastically eclectic career he's put together over the past three-plus decades.
So here are my picks in chronological order. Honorable mention goes to his supporting turn as trash-talking bowling champ Ernie McCracken in the underappreciated Farrelly brothers comedy "Kingpin" (1996), for the sweet hairpiece, if nothing else.
- "Caddyshack" (1980): Murray was at the height of his "Saturday Night Live" cult stardom when he gave his enduring portrayal of oddball golf course greenskeeper Carl Spackler in this all-time-great raunchy `80s comedy. The character is a little grungy and a little dangerous and more than a little off, but also strangely sweet and the source of endlessly quotable lines. Murray has said that people shout Carl dialogue to him all the time as he's playing golf in real life - "It's in the hole!" - hoping he'll recite the words back. That's how much this movie and this character still matter in our crowded pop-culture universe.
- "Stripes" (1981): Murray is at his subversively charming best here in an early starring role as John Winger, a loser who decides to join the Army to be all he can be. He's silly and sarcastic, confident and quick-witted, so naturally he has a little trouble respecting the authority of Warren Oates' Sgt. Hulka, the platoon's "big toe." But he earns a loyal following, becomes an inadvertent leader and even gets the girl in the end. Murray plays beautifully off old friend Harold Ramis as his straight man, and the whole anarchic vibe from Ivan Reitman, directing one of his best films, is an excellent fit for the comic's persona during this period.
- "Rushmore" (1998): The beginning of a shift in Murray's screen presence toward melancholy, introspective characters. The humor is still there but it comes from a different place: one of loss, regret and self-destruction. Wes Anderson's sweet and cleverly meticulous comedy is one of my favorite movies of all time, and Murray just broke my heart in it. He's wealthy but he has nothing. He has a family but he constantly feels alone. In Jason Schwartzman's precocious high schooler Max Fischer, he finds an unlikely soul mate. And in Olivia Williams' first-grade teacher Miss Cross, he finds unexpected romance.
- "Lost in Translation" (2003): Murray earned an Oscar nomination for best actor for his portrayal of Bob Harris, an aging American actor who has schlepped to Tokyo to shoot a whiskey commercial that will pay him $2 million. He strikes a beautiful balance between lighthearted sarcasm and self-loathing as he forms an undefinable friendship with Scarlett Johansson, playing the bored, young wife of a celebrity photographer. To this day, I can't listen to "More Than This" by Roxy Music without thinking of Murray's delicate karaoke rendition in this lovely Sofia Coppola film.

The ban on plastic carry bags has slowly but surely begun to show results.
With the authorities cracking down on those violating the ban, most shop keepers now ask the customer if they have brought any bag with them. The public too is slowly getting used to the idea of carrying a cloth bag or re-usable plastic bags with them always in their two-wheelers or cars so that they can shop on the way back from work or while they are out.
Generally, paper bags do not seem to be very popular with people as these are not exactly useful to carry wet items such as fish or even heavy loads. But jute and cloth bags are infinitely appealing to many.

Sonogram Tech Education Requirements and Career Information
Learn about the education and preparation needed to become a sonogram technician. Get a quick view of the requirements as well as details about schooling, job duties and certification to find out if this is the career for you.
Essential Information
Sonogram technicians, also known as ultrasound technicians, use high-frequency sound waves to image patients' internal organs and help in the diagnosis of illnesses and disease. Most sonogram technicians are employed in hospitals, although some work in doctors' offices and other healthcare facilities. The majority of sonographers hold a 2-year degree in sonography, and many choose to earn voluntary certification to better compete for jobs.
|Required Education
|Associate's degree in sonogram technology or a similar field; certificate programs are also available for those with professional experience in healthcare
|Other Requirements
|Voluntary certifications are available
|Projected Job Growth (2012-2022)
|46% for diagnostic medical sonographers*
|Mean Annual Salary (2013)
|$67,170 for diagnostic medical sonographers*
Source: *U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics
Education Requirements
Although aspiring sonogram techs might receive on-the-job training, they typically complete a 2-year program accredited by the Commission on Accreditation of Allied Health Education Programs. Students learn to use sonography equipment and interpret the output. Some of the course topics include instrumentation, anatomy and physiology, basic echocardiography, medical terminology and ultrasound equipment.
In addition to coursework, students participate in clinicals under the supervision of sonographers. Some schools also offer 1-year programs, although these programs are geared toward professionals already working in the healthcare industry who want to change careers.
Although certification is not a state requirement for employment, many sonogram techs choose certification to improve their employment opportunities. Certification is available through the American Registry for Diagnostic Medical Sonography, the American Registry of Radiologic Technologists and Cardiovascular Credentialing International. Sonogram techs can choose to be certified in a sonography specialty.
To obtain certification, they must complete training and pass an examination in physics and instrumentation. Sonogram technicians must complete continuing education to maintain certification.
Career Information
Sonogram techs can choose from several specialties. Obstetric and gynecologic sonographers specialize in imaging and diagnosing the female reproductive system, both during and after pregnancy. Sonographers also might focus on imaging patients' abdominal cavity to help diagnose ailments associated with such organs as the pancreas, kidneys, liver and spleen.
Neurosonographers are skilled in the examination of the brain and nervous system. Other sonographers specialize in the study of breast tissue to monitor blood supply, tumor growth and biopsy accuracy.
Career and Salary Outlook
According to the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS), diagnostic medical sonographers earned a mean annual wage of $67,170 as of 2013 (www.bls.gov). Job opportunities were predicted to grow by 46% from 2012-2022, which was much greater than average. Aging patients in need of diagnostic imaging and healthcare providers choosing ultrasound imaging rather than radiologic procedures were two factors contributing to the employment growth, reported the BLS.

Freddie Mercury is the greatest vocalist and singer of all time. Why? That is because he has a unique voice that can simply not be replicated. The most unique and most beautiful voice that has ever graced this earth. There is no vocalist before or after him, that I could think of, that can sing the song "The Show Must Go On" or "Who Wants to Live Forever". What makes him so special is beyond my understanding. Maybe its his tone, or maybe its his accent. Whatever it is, it is the most amazing thing ever recorded and nobody will ever be able to pull it off.

Sometimes after school I go to a drawing academy here in brussels, but it really sucks! (not always but...)and so, sometimes there is a guy posing.

The evidence on which these budding theories are based is, even by the standards of fringe conspiracy theory, remarkably thin, and demand massive collusion between hundreds of private citizens, the federal government, local authorities, and the news media.If that right there doesn't make you want to run out and pass a new law saying it's alright to slap some of these folks with a 2-by-4, well, maybe you need to have your assault-with-imaginary-lumber instincts recalibrated.
The theorists claim some of the parents and witnesses are paid actors who, because they don't shed tears on camera, are pretending their children died. The "Sandy Hook Shooting - Fully Exposed" video shows a photo of children hugging Obama during a visit to Newtown. The theorists claim one of the little girls is Emilie Parker, who was killed in the shooting. The little girl, who shares many of Emilie's features, is her sister.
So why, aside from America's great and wide collection of stupid people, are people inventing conspiracy theories about a horrific mass murder? It's important to remember that for the most part these people were already spectacularly stupid conspiracy theorists before the Sandy Hook shootings ever happened. The wider Sandy Hook "conspiracy" is, supposedly, that the federal government faked the whole thing in order to finally, at long last, get around to confiscating all the guns that they've been supposed to be confiscating for, hell, decades now but never quite managed. It's not particularly surprising that the particular band of loons and misfits who already believed the earlier conspiracies are just as eager to believe that the conspiracy now goes "even deeper," or whatever the hell they believe.
(Continue reading below the fold.)
This is the difference between the vast majority of American gun owners/users and the true obsessives, people for whom "guns, everywhere" is something between a personal mantra and a national battle cry. And it's distinctly based in the militia and white supremacy movements, movements that the National Rifle Association has increasingly aligned itself, when it comes to policy prescriptions. Note that in the earlier story of a Newtown resident receiving phone calls and hate mail over his supposed involvement in the "conspiracy," many attacks were based on "white supremacist message boards" attacking him as that "emotional Jewish Guy." It's not exactly subtle.
These are the people who believe, in their core, that rebellion is just around every corner. They're the ones whose lives are devoted to the "gun culture," and to whom the notion of "defending our freedom" against the government by, if and when the moment ever comes, shooting at the government from the confines of their pre-built bunkers. These are the people who believe the government is always coming after their guns, but whose conviction of that reached a deafening pitch the moment the first non-white president was elected to the office; these are the people who originated all the conspiracy theories that the NRA now mainstreams to its entire member base as supposedly legitimate fears. Naturally, they see the murder of other people's kids as just part of the wider conspiracy to make sure they don't have enough personal guns and ammunition to protect themselves from some new American Hitler (or the ATF, or the FBI, or the local sheriff, for that matter).
And it's the reason "Gun Appreciation Day" was scheduled for the same weekend as the president's inauguration and, coincidence of coincidences, Martin Luther King Jr. Day. An event that was co-sponsored in part by an actual white nationalist group, just in case that connection wasn't already painted in large enough letters.
Believing that a monstrous shooting incident is nothing more than a staged event to plot against you and your interests is perhaps the most narcissistic thing I can think of, so believing in this particular conspiracy theory might be a fine indicator, in one fell swoop, of which people in America can be safely relegated to the moron bin. It should be noted, however, how much the current NRA stokes the wider conspiracy that have these same nuts stockpiling ammo and rushing out, after each new mass murder, to purchase the killer's preferred gun. According to the NRA and other militia-inclined groups, there is no substantive difference between (1) pursuing (or even researching, if you're a government scientist) gun safety or restricting public access to certain gun configurations specifically designed to invoke mass carnage, and (2) banning every gun in America outright; we have been blocked from doing the former because the NRA has mounted an ongoing campaign to stoke fears that they will really result in the latter.
That's the supreme irony of all this. (Did I say irony? I meant fury.) We are told that we currently have the Right Amount of mass murders, because having any fewer would infringe on a very, very narrow set of conspiracy-minded people who want to reserve the right to commit mass murders of their own, so long as those murders coincide with the "right" political purpose. That the NRA and congress caters to this crowd, people for whom a "traditional way of life" has profoundly racist, distinctly anarchist overtones is a question that we should have been asking earlier. When we can't regulate gun safety because certain groups insist on the right to "defend themselves from the government," we're doing it wrong. Ten rounds instead of 30 will do, sport. There are certain places where a decent person has no business wandering around with a gun. If you have a son who is clearly mentally unbalanced, maybe keeping an arsenal in your home to defend against an imaginary breakdown of society should come second to rational contemplation as to whether you want that kind of weaponry accessible to him. We can't legislate common sense, but Christ—we certainly have a right to make sure other people's conspiracy theories can't kill us with as much regularity, and lethality, as the conspiracy theorists say we should be inuring ourselves to.

Product Support Solutions Inc. (PSS) is a contact center integration specialist. From the US and Europe, to Australia and Asia, PSS helps hundreds of companies provide superior customer service to millions of customers. These businesses use solutions designed and managed by PSS to provide unique and enjoyable customer experiences for their customers. PSS is known as a trusted advisor in helping companies develop a contact center roadmap for the future. PSS provides a range of high value services including legacy systems support, transition services as well as advising on technology innovation for the contact centers of tomorrow.
One factor driving company growth is the consistent focus on customers undergoing technology transitions in the contact center. Glenn Hackemer, EVP Sales explains "In early 2013 many companies identified initiatives such as proof of concepts or pilots that will turn into large contracts later this year. We are helping several global companies create a single network across their entire enterprise for customer contact. Cloud based service providers continue to use our transition services to on-board their clients because attempting to utilize internal staff that are already over burdened is not prudent, and they do not need a long-term resource.
"PSS brings sophisticated knowledge of multi-channel CTI and IVR, with a high degree of staffing flexibility, which companies find very appealing and effective. With over 10 years of experience as an independent system integrator combined with our agile development methodologies, we often prove to be far more cost effective and better able to meet the customer's timelines with less risk than other providers."
CEO Todd Funk believes "Our focus on providing an entire contact center practice for our customers has been key to our growth. Today, we have many expert resources for the full su
