21 Best Places to Work in Vermont revealed
Vermont Business Magazine and the Vermont Chamber of Commerce announced Wednesday the 21 Best Places to Work in Vermont 2013.
The statewide survey and awards program was created to identify, recognize and honor the best places of employment in Vermont, benefiting the state's economy, its workforce and businesses.
The Best Places to Work in the small company category in alphabetical order:
ASIC North Inc., Farm & Wilderness Foundation, Fuse, Gallagher, Flynn & Company, Heritage Aviation, Hickok & Boardman Financial Planning & Group Benefits, Instrumart, Liquid Measurement Systems, Resource Systems Group, Seventh Generation, Sonnax Industries.
The Best Places to Work in the large company category (150 or more) are: BioTek Instruments, Comcast Cable, Country Home Products, Edward Jones, Entergy Vermont Yankee, Green Mountain Coffee Roasters, King Arthur Flour, Merchants Bank, Vermont Energy Investment Corp.
The awards, created in 2006, is presented in partnership with the Society for Human Resource Management, Vermont State Council, Vermont Department of Labor and the Vermont Department of Economic Development and Best Companies Group.
To be considered, companies had to meet the following requirements:
Have at least 15 employees working in Vermont; be a for-profit or not-for-profit business or government entity; be a publicly or privately held business; have a facility in the state; and be in business a minimum of one year.
Companies from across the state entered the two-part process. The first part consisted of evaluating each nominated company's workplace policies, practices, and demographics, which was worth approximately 25 percent of the total evaluation. The second part consisted of an employee survey to measure their experience. This part of the evaluation was worth approximately 75 percent.
The combined scores determined the top companies and the final ranking. Best Companies Group managed the overall registration and survey process in Vermont and also analyzed the data and used their expertise to determine the final rankings.
The final rankings for each category will be announced at a special awards presentation on April 4, at the ECHO Lake Aquarium and Science Center from 5 to 7:30 p.m.MORE IN This Just InWeston Playhouse Theatre Company opened its 79th season with a slice of Vermont hick.

2:26 your logic is terrible... you don't go to build-a-bear to build something for a bear, you go there to build a bear. So you would go to build-a-vag to build a vag.
lol at 3:50. I think that's build-a-bear IN your vag.
Fleshlight , google it .... Its build a vag ....
^^ kudos on the logic
this has business potential.
Wow, people who are trying to pick apart this text for its 'inaccuracies' are lame asses.
you can go to any adult store and get a mold kit for either cock or vag. My fav is the kit with chocolate so you can have fun making the mold of your fav guy's cock then eat it after the fun =)
They already have those. The names of the products are Match-A-Snatch & Clone-A-Bone. Feel free to google them to order a kit.
God I love this site!!!!!!!!!!
My name is Anna g.Im 18 and my # is 516 315 9092. take that lindsay.
if it's for your vag, then it'd be build-a-cock! ... but if it were for the cock, then it's build-a-vag =P
It's a Merkin dude, a merkin.
3:25 orrrr you like black dick
screw the text, whats the link.
WTH??! Where is this place?? I want to go.
Ok, I totally live in Jersey, work in porn shops and have never heard of this place. I must know where it is!
build-a-bear for your vag: otherwise known as pregnancy
i want to know what this is, it sounds golden.
yeah, I'm going to need that link..
lol- i'd love to know the context here.
omg how much fun would that be??
It was in reference to a sex store nearby, they have a custom vibrator center!
3:55 it would be build a bear in your UTERUS. Go back to health class

ABC News 7
By Lauren Glassberg
There is a commercial space in the heart of Lower Manhattan that looks like a plain old office building. But inside, there's a sex club, and police and other tenants can't do anything to stop it. Neighbors were shocked to learn that the wild swingers club even existed inside, with the Amsterdam Club apparently renting space on the third floor of the 27 Cliff Street location."That's definitely surprising for me to come across," said one man, who works in the building for a security company. "I never saw something like that." He had no idea that a few floors below, there were alleged sex parties going on. The Amsterdam Club even advertises Freaky Fridays and Swinging Sundays on its website at a location described as a loft in the posh Financial District."Wow, I'm amazed," one woman said. "I had no idea. I thought we had a rather quiet, dignified neighborhood."But other tenants in the building have complained to landlord Raj Sawhney about loud and inappropriate noises. Sawhney told Eyewitness News that he has two legal cases pending against the tenant, one for $30,000 in back rent owed and another because of alleged criminal activity. But he thought the tenant was a video production company.Police issued a summons about two weeks ago for the sale of alcohol without a license, but sex, as long as it isn't sold, is legal. Some neighborhood residents, however, say they aren't bothered by the alleged swingers club. "To each his own," one passerby said. But those working in the building don't like it at all. "Our office is here," the security worker said. "I don't want nothing to conflict with our office."The owner may have a tough time leasing the available ground-floor space, now that word has spread about what's happening up in the building.

When women in pop culture stray from the prescribed "good girl" into the most extreme bad girl—the sex addict—their interest in BDSM is typically equated with their addiction. By contrast, men are usually portrayed as hopelessly addicted to XXX images, preferring porn to people. Are male sex addicts fundamentally different from female ones, shackled to the Internet while women are shackled by handcuffs? If not, why does popular culture portray them in these two different ways? And what does this say about how women's sex, desire and pleasure are not only portrayed but policed in our culture?
In films, male sex addicts focus on pornography, such as Adam Sandler's role in the just-released film Men, Women and Children in which he and his son, played by Travis Trope, share this addiction. (Other recent movies in which guys OD on porn include Shame, Thanks for Sharing and Don Jon.) This development coincides with the ease of access to Internet porn, allowing anyone with a smartphone or laptop to have it.
These onscreen portrayals, along with similarly alarming nonfiction articles, offer up modern porn as a dangerous siren luring unsuspecting horny men into the abyss, never to connect with a real-live human woman again. Witness a 2011 New York magazine article about male porn use in which a 41-year-old man named Perry said, "I used to race home to have sex with my wife….Now I leave work a half-hour early so I can get home before she does and masturbate to porn." The idea of watching porn by yourself for pleasure—and even masturbating!—gets diverted into making porn into a vice men should avoid if they want to have a healthy relationship.
Whereas men's onscreen libidos get subsumed to porn, women sex addicts in such film classics as Nymphomaniac and The Piano Teacher go down a kinky path of no return. For these heroines, their pathology is part and parcel of their interest in masochism (though in The Piano Teacher, Erika does have a penchant for porn). The repeated linking of women's interest in BDSM—bondage/discipline, domination/submission, sadism/masochism and other kinky play—with being unable to control that interest adds up to the idea that women just can't get enough of whips and chains. Just as men's brains apparently shut off when faced with naked bodies, women can't think rationally in the face of a sexy Master, which simply isn't true in the real world.
"There is no evidence that kinky women are more likely to be sexually compulsive. Just because someone has more sex than another person doesn't mean they're addicted, either," says Susan Wright, spokesperson for the National Coalition for Sexual Freedom. "It's derogatory to say someone is more likely to be out of control about their sexuality because of the frequency of their desire or because they like to do BDSM. In fact, most people who are nonmonogamous or kinky have learned how to communicate better with their partners to be sure everything is going OK. That's the opposite of the self-harm model of sex addiction."
Basically, "safe, sane and consensual" (a mantra for many in the BDSM world) doesn't compute in the vanilla mindset of the world at large. Therefore, the idea of willingly wanting to give up some aspect of control of your life, whether it's what you wear, when you orgasm or what kind of paddle is used on you, is deemed "abnormal."
The recent popularity among women of the BDSM romance novel Fifty Shades of Grey by E.L. James, which has sold over 100 million copies worldwide, led to media interest in the topic, much of which expressed a lingering suspicion of kinky sex as dangerous—but in all the wrong ways.
In fact, it's hero Christian Grey, who tells heroine Anastasia Steele that he's never had vanilla (nonkinky) sex before, who can fairly be said to be the BDSM "addict." Yet he at least has a serious, long-term interest in these sexual activities. Anastasia is doing it primarily because she loves him and wants to please him. Does this make her a love addict by default? It's unclear, but the idea that a woman would consent to an act like spanking or bondage is seen as suspect. One Forbes commentator wrote, "Do middle-aged women, the main audience for this book, really view the threat of violence as an aphrodisiac?"
Well, no, because BDSM takes place within the framework of consent and violence doesn't. But you wouldn't know that from much of the Fifty Shades handwringing, which will surely reach a fever pitch when the movie version (starring Jamie Dornan and Dakota Jackson) hits the big screen February 15.
The very nature of certain BDSM activities—especially some of its psychological aspects—are red flags for an addiction model that doesn't have, pardon the pun, room for shades of gray. Women's interest in BDSM per se is often taken as a sign of sex addiction, whether or not the activity is causing a problem in their lives, says Margaret Corvid, a writer, activist and professional dominatrix. "If a woman reports a sex addiction, her interest in a particular kind of sex is often tagged as the problem: She is likely to be advised by a healthcare provider to drop the kink, rather than to manage it so it doesn't negatively impact her life." ...

The Buffalo News
By Lou Michel
The victim woke up in her car parked in Buffalo, not knowing how she had gotten there.
But she remembered all too clearly the horrific abuse she had just survived, allegedly at the hands of a Lewiston man now charged with a long list of felonies, from first-degree kidnapping to aggravated sexual abuse and obstruction of airway, according to police.
Iver J. Phallen, 67, a retired businessman, used ropes, handcuffs "and other devices" to bind, choke, beat and abuse the 24-year-old Niagara County woman over a period of about 20 hours, police said.
And he told the victim he had brutalized other women in the same way.
Tuesday, Lewiston police urged anyone who knows Phallen or who may have been victimized by him to contact the authorities immediately.
"We believe there may be more, yes," said Lewiston Police Sgt. Frank Previte.
"We're requesting that if any individuals have had personal contact or dealings with Phallen, or have any information regarding this case, they contact the Lewiston police or state police," Lewiston Police Chief Christopher Salada said.
At a news conference Tuesday afternoon at the Lewiston Police Department, investigators outlined what they believe happened at Phallen's townhouse on Carriage Lane.
New York State Police Lt. Kevin Reyes, of the Bureau of Criminal Investigation, said it was not a chance encounter between Phallen and the young woman on Thursday.
"We believe it was a prearranged meeting and they were going to a known location," Reyes said.
Police said the victim worked at the Colonie Lounge, a strip club and cigar bar on Hertel Avenue in North Buffalo, but authorities made a point of saying that her place of employment wasn't relevant to the case.
The meeting between Phallen and the woman was initially consensual.
"And then it changed," Previte said. "Phallen used ropes and other devices to asphyxiate her. It was against her wishes."
The attacks occurred in a soundproof room at Phallen's townhouse, and the room's windows were covered with heavy blankets, authorities said.
"There was a vast collection of devices. It was methodical and all prepared in advance," a member of law enforcement said, adding that there is no reason to doubt Phallen's claims of encounters with other women.
"Over a 20-hour period, he subjected this victim to all kinds of physical and emotional abuse in dehumanizing her. It was torture, akin to being a POW," the source said.
The victim told police that on different occasions throughout Thursday and into that night, Phallen choked her, rendering her unconscious.
"There was sadomasochism and BDSM (bondage, discipline and sadomasochism). There was physical injury against her, and all of it was conducted against her will," Previte said.
Part of the "discipline" segment of BDSM, police explained, involves physical abuse and restraining the victim to render her helpless.
During the ordeal, Phallen bragged to the woman of past encounters during which he had physically mistreated other women, she told police. ...

More than 19 states including Hawai'i have legalized gay marriage in the past decade due to increased public awareness and changing social views on what constitutes a romantic relationship. While this is great news, Americans are still strongly opposed to the idea of romance between more than two people. Here are a few guidelines on experimenting with ethical non-monogamy, or polyamory.
by Roman Kalinowski
More than 19 states including Hawai'i have legalized gay marriage in the past decade due to increased public awareness and changing social views on what constitutes a romantic relationship. While this is great news, Americans are still strongly opposed to the idea of romance between more than two people. Here are a few guidelines on experimenting with ethical non-monogamy, or polyamory.
Polyamory comes from the Greek words for "many" and "love" and refers to maintaining loving, intimate relationships with more than one other person. While sex is generally a natural part of romance, polyamory is more than just hooking up with various people. Swingers contrast with polyamory, focusing on sexual encounters over close relationships.
Love isn't scarce like natural resources and doesn't diminish as people are added to a relationship. Each relationship is unique and can have many or few rules, depending on the people involved. For instance, "polyfidelity" refers to a closed group of three to four individuals who may cohabitate over an extended period of time. Another group of polyamorous people may have a "condom contract" with each other – specifying under what conditions a new person may be added to the barrier-free group, if at all. Regular testing for sexually transmitted diseases after new partners enter the relationship is important and free in the state of Hawai'i. Condom or barrier use is also a good idea for new partners.
While there is nothing wrong with traditional monogamy, it's historically been presented as the only option in life. In reality, there exists a diverse spectrum of relationship possibilities to explore beyond the typical single, dating and married option.
The most important aspect of polyamorous relationships is honesty between partners. Jealousy can be a destructive force in all relationships, romantic or otherwise, stemming from fear of the unknown – fear that a lover may leave or that one is insufficient.
Open and frank discussion about topics like goals, desires and sexual boundaries can solve serious problems before they start by reassuring participants that their needs are being met and that everyone is comfortable.
Polyamory doesn't permit the ability to "cheat" on a partner at any time, as cheating implies deceit or dishonesty. If anyone involved isn't fully informed of and consenting to the existence of the other participants, then it's not truly a polyamorous relationship.
Last year, California Governor Jerry Brown signed a bill into law, allowing children to have three or more parents or legal guardians to reflect changing family structures. This is progress, but the status of households with multiple adults is ambiguous in the other 49 states. Furthermore, children could potentially be separated from the persons they know as parents. ...

Want to question a partner's sobriety before giving consent for sex? There's an app for that.
It's called Good2Go, and its launch comes days after California Gov. Jerry Brown signed a bill that defines when "yes means yes" and requires all state colleges to adopt a "affirmative consent" policy. The app, which is free to download on iTunes and Google Play, targets college-age adults and includes a sobriety questionnaire that asks users who they're sleeping with, when they're doing it, and how drunk or sober they are.
Lee Ann Allman, the app's creator, told Slate the inspiration for Good2Go came after she talked with college students about sexual assault on campuses across the country. "(They) are very aware of what's happening, and they're worried about it, but they're confused about what to do," she said. Since "kids are so used to having technology that helps them with issues in their lives," Allman believes the app will ultimately remind college student that consent to sex should be affirmatively given and revoked at any time.
The app claims to be "easy to use" and only one partner needs to download the app to use it. The Daily Mail documented how the app works:
To use Good2Go, users must launch the app, before handing the phone to their potential partner. Using a euphemism for sex, the app then asks the person: 'Are we Good2Go?', before offering them three choices: 'No, thanks,' 'Yes, but... we need to talk,' and 'I'm Good2Go.' If the individual chooses 'No, thanks,' a black screen pops up reading: 'Remember! No means No! Only Yes means Yes. BUT can be changed to NO at anytime!.' Meanwhile, the 'Yes, but... we need to talk' option leads to a pause, during which the couple are given time to discuss their mutual interest in sex.
The final choice, 'I'm Good2Go,' sends the user to a second screen, which asks them how intoxicated they are: a) 'Sober,' b) 'Mildly Intoxicated,' c) 'Intoxicated but Good2Go' or d) 'Pretty Wasted.' If the individual picks 'Pretty Wasted,' they are then informed that they 'cannot consent' to sexual activity and are instructed to hand the phone back to their potential partner....

National Coalition for Sexual Freedom Fundraising Dinner and Panel Discussion "BDSM & Erotic Play - Legal Risks and New Developments"
You and your BDSM partner and group members may be having a great time, but there's a lot going on that you need to know about. On the one hand, prosecutors and courts across the country are bringing criminal cases, even against consensual BDSM. But on the other hand, NCSF is making real progress for our communities—helping to change the psychiatric profession's DSM criteria so that we are no longer defined as mentally ill, preventing prosecutions and filing legal briefs, and pursuing a nationwide Consent Counts project to decriminalize consensual BDSM.
The Panelists:
Richard O. Cunningham, B.S., M.A., J.D., has advocated for over 40 years on issues of gender, race and sex. He has played a leading role in landmark legal cases, including being the supervising attorney on the U.S. Supreme Court case to allow women in military academies and the initiating attorney for the lawsuit during the Vietnam War that resulted in the "Fairness Doctrine" to require balanced media coverage of political issues. He is senior international trade partner at Steptoe & Johnson, LLP in Washington, D.C. He is the former Chair of the Boards of the NCSF Foundation and the Woodhull Freedom Foundation. Dick currently serves as NCSF's Legal Counsel.
Judy Guerin is a well-known activist, writer, speaker and educator on issues of sexual freedom and gender expression. She is also a long-time practitioner of BDSM and sex educator on BDSM activities. She is a former board member of GenderPAC, the Woodhull Freedom Foundation, Forum 21 and the Black Rose. She is a former steering committee member of the National Policy Roundtable of GLBTQ/HIV groups, former executive director of the National Coalition for Sexual Freedom and advisor to the European Union Human Rights Commission on issues of sexual freedom and GLBTQ issues. She currently directs NCSF's Consent Counts Project to decriminalize consensual BDSM in the U.S.
Advance registration required for dinner. Drinks and gratuity not included in ticket price. Event is 7pm-9pm.
***Please note: The BalMar's upstairs meeting room is accessible only by stairs.

Dean and Cristy Parave, from Florida, have been married for seven years and are devout Christians.
Cristy, 44, is bisexual. She indulges in extra-marital sex with the consent of Dean, 50.
She told Barcroft Media: "I don't think God would be mad at what we are doing. At first I was conflicted but the more we looked at it, the more it makes sense to us. Dean and I are both in agreement with this lifestyle, so we're not committing adultery.
"God put people on the earth to breed and enjoy each other. I feel God is always with me and he has put us here for a reason."
The couple also enter bodybuilding competitions.
"I've always been adventurous when it comes to sex," Christy said. "The sex between my first husband and I was miserable. I was undersexed before I met Dean but now we do it twice a day. It's incredible."
They were introduced to the world of sex-swapping after a chance encounter in Home Depot.
"A couple approached me in Home Depot out of nowhere and asked if we were swingers," Christy said. "I was so naive I thought they were talking about swing dancing. I said, 'I used to love to but my husband doesn't, I'd love to get him lessons.' Cristy then invited a friend over, and the two women surprised Dean in the shower.
Dean was an alcoholic and a drug addict before he converted to Christianity. He told Barcroft: "For me every day used to involve a case of beer and a bottle of Jack Daniel's. After my fifth arrest for driving under the influence I begged God for help. I should have been looking at 10 years, but the judge sentenced me to just 10 months in prison. For me that was a sign."

As the saying goes in New Orleans, let the good times roll.
And at no time is that mantra on display more than during the Naughty in N'Awlins, an annual swingers convention.
Roughly 1,300 swingers from across the country, some who have been married for years and have children, gathered in New Orleans last month for a convention that took over a luxury hotel for four days.
Bob Hannaford, who has made a business around the swinging lifestyle with events like these and a number of cruises, put the convention together. He and his staff of 45 people replaced tables and chairs in conference rooms with beds to create "playrooms" -- a dungeon room, a bondage room and a sensual magic room just to name a few.
An introductory sex toy class, an introduction-to-bondage class, naked speed dating and body painting were just some of the 20 seminars the convention offered, not to mention the 25 wild themed parties, such as the red-dress charity party.
In true New Orleans fashion, the convention was kicked off with a first-ever Swingers Pride parade down Bourbon Street.
The convention is not just about bringing the swinging community together, Hannafold said, but it makes a statement about their lifestyle choice.
"I just want to live in a world where people accept us," Hannaford said. "We just want to live our lives, make our own choices. What we do in private is our own business and there's a lot of people who do kinky things in private. Most people don't want to tell people about it, but I'm here to tell the world, 'I'm a kinky guy, you gotta accept me.'"
Hannaford knows swinging isn't for everyone, but while critics of the swinger lifestyle say it's just an excuse to cheat on your partner, he believes it can actually help make a marriage stronger....

Understanding market competition is an integral part of establishing a viable business strategy. Used for both short- and long-term purposes, business intelligence can inform decisions related to pricing, advertising, marketing, and branding. Public and private resources, as well as professional research services, are profiled here. And there are several additional links for you to gather competitive intelligence on competitive intelligence.
Even if you never intend to look beyond your own business backyard, read this brief, helpful article. Entrepreneurs do find unexpected opportunities beyond the horizon, but few know how to effectively expand geographically.
Pulling legal documents from the internet may be quick, cheap, and easy, but keep in mind you get what you pay for. Sometimes more is less. An experienced, straight-talking start-up veteran provides three best practices about how to avoid mistakes, what you should pay, and how to negotiate fees.
There are pros and cons associated with using a convertible note structure before doing a Series A round of investment. A venture capitalist explains the ins and outs with a brief, straightforward introduction, including blog comments from other sources.
Small companies are especially bedeviled by long sales cycles. Taking more control of the process will help. What can you do? Do a better job of tracking each step in the sales pipeline, developing a more efficient training program for new salespeople (a refresher for veterans), and more effectively identifying prospects. This article offers additional ways, compelling examples, and expert sources.
A venture capitalist explains how key performance indicators (KPIs) are best compiled and used. They should be straightforward covering financial items and people, probably no more than 20, tied to specific managers, and coordinated by the CFO. Sales should be handled as a separate category.
Mentoring is a time-honored tradition in many fields, and for good reason: It works. Parents, friends, and investors usually don't cut it as mentors, however. You need unbiased, direct (even blunt) advice and direction if you want to grow your company. This article provides in-depth information, insight, and examples both for mentees and mentors.
This blog entry by a Chief Happiness Officer tackles an important topic from the European point of view. It's a useful reminder that not all of your employees are as zealous about your vision as you or your senior executives. Some will perform better if you keep that in mind.
Hindsight is 20/20, or so the saying goes. It's useful to learn from the mistakes you made in your last venture, but realize that they might not apply to this venture. So, focus on things you can control (not your competition), be passionate about revenue (or hire someone who is), and remember that, as the author points out, "it's easier to keep spending under control than it is to get spending under control."

Inbee Park clinging to hope after 73
ST. ANDREWS, Scotland -- After her first round at the Women's British Open, world No. 1 Inbee Park mentioned that confidence was everything when it came to getting out of the bunkers here at the Old Course. Once doubt crept in, she said, you weren't going to be able to make a play from your sand punishment. You gotta believe you can escape the hole.
That's exactly how Park needs to approach the rest of this tournament. She's not in an impossible lie, but she'll have to scrap and claw -- ...

Statesman; trained as a barrister and travelled to Australia in 1842 where he played an active role in politics until 1850. On his return to England, Lowe was leader writer for The Times and entered parliament two years later. He occupied posts in successive governments in the 1850s, distinguished himself as a speaker in the Reform debates of 1866–1867, and finally attained cabinet rank as Chancellor of the Exchequer (1868–1873), and Home Secretary (1873–1874), in Gladstone's first administration. He was raised to the House of Lords as Viscount Sherbrooke in 1880. Lowe was born an albino, and his sight was so weak that initially it was thought he was unfit to be sent to school.

How did three Danes end up being tortured in Lebanon?
At 15 Omar went to Guantanamo. Here's his story
21 Mar 2012 01:15 GMT | Politics, Africa, US & Canada, France, Libya
Mauritania has agreed that Muammar Gaddafi's intelligence chief Abdullah al-Senussi, arrested in Nouakchott last week, can be extradited to Libya, Libya's deputy prime minister has said.
The decision, if implemented, sets Libya on a collision course with France and the international war crimes court in The Hague, which also want to extradite Senussi, Gaddafi's right-hand man before the Libyan leader's overthrow and death in a popular revolt last year.
"I have met the president of Mauritania and he agreed to the extradition of Senussi to Libya," Mustafa Abu Shagour, the Libyan deputy prime minister, wrote on Twitter on Tuesday in a comment confirmed as official by a Libyan government representative.
A Mauritanian security source said a deal was close, but acknowledged pressure from Paris.
"We agreed to study their request favourably. It's almost a done deal but one should be careful. The French are applying lots of pressure," the source said on condition of anonymity.
"They say their claim takes priority because their arrest warrant went in first and because they helped with the arrest."
'Crimes against humanity'
Senussi, whose whereabouts had been unclear for months, was arrested at Mauritania's Nouakchott airport late on Friday when he stepped off a flight from Morocco.
A senior Libyan delegation to Mauritania feted President Mohamed Ould Abdel Aziz for his "brave stance" in arresting Senussi, and during talks at his presidency stressed that Senussi should be extradited to Libya.
"We greatly appreciate the position of the president who promised us that good will come of this matter," said a statement attributed to Shagour earlier and issued by Mauritania's official news agency AMI.
France and the International Criminal Court also want Senussi. The ICC has indicted him for crimes against humanity, while he is also alleged to have had a role in the 1989 bombing of an airliner in which 54 French nationals died.
"We want Senussi to be extradited to France. We feel we owe it to the victims' families and to justice," Bernard Valero, the French foreign ministry spokesman, said of a step that would allow France to confirm the life sentence already handed down to Senussi in absentia by a French court.
Separately, diplomatic sources said the United States - which on Monday confirmed it had contacts with Mauritania over Senussi - had requested access to him before any transfer.
"The Americans put in a request to Mauritanian authorities yesterday (Monday) morning to be able to meet Senussi while he is still in Mauritania, said one diplomatic source.
A second diplomat also confirmed the request had been made. No comment was immediately available either from the Mauritanian or US governments.
Senussi's name has been linked to the 1988 bombing over Lockerbie, Scotland of a Pan Am jet that killed 270 people. A State Department spokeswoman said on Monday the US had long expressed an interest in talking to him about it.
'Fair trial'
Human rights groups doubt Senussi, 62, will have a fair trial in Libya and have called for his transfer to the ICC. Amnesty International described the Libyan judicial system as "paralysed", noting it had not successfully investigated the death of prisoners in rebel detention or high-profile cases such as the death of former military chief Abdel-Fattah Younis.
"The Libyan judiciary has done nothing. It has held no one accountable and has not investigated a single case yet," Amnesty's Donatella Rovera told Reuters news agency.
However, Khalifa Faraj Ashour, the deputy justice minister, told Reuters in Tripoli the former intelligence chief would be tried fairly in his home country.
"Security is good, the courts are working fine in almost all of the country," he said. "Even if there is a security breach once in a while, we can deal with it."
Ashour said it was too early to discuss what charges Senussi could face in Libya. Interpol has issued a Red Notice for him at Libya's request for fraud offences including embezzling public funds and misuse of power for personal benefit.
"In general, we can say one of the crimes is financial corruption. He knows a lot about hidden money," Ashour said. Senussi is also suspected of a key role in the killing of more than 1,200 inmates at Tripoli's Abu Salim prison in 1996.

The Houston Rockets have been sharp the last week, knocking off title contenders Miami, Indiana and Portland. But Tuesday night against the Oklahoma City Thunder, they were a little off in a 106-98 loss. While Rockets center Dwight Howard was posting up late in the first quarter, he passed the ball to a wide open Omer Asik. The only problem was Asik wasn't in the game.

A Cynthiana woman died June 18 after her car ran off the road and struck an embankment.
When they decided to go for it, they went big.
By Becky Barnes, Editor
While the most commonly known hate crimes in the United States are those against African Americans and those whose sexual orientation is not of the majority, there are many more.
Two simultaneous events last Thursday evening left the Cynthiana Police Department temporarily shorthanded.
A Cynthiana woman died Thursday after her car ran off the road and struck an embankment.
Sharri J. Kroh, 45, died from injuries sustained in the accident shortly after arriving at Harrison Memorial Hospital, according to the accident report filed by Deputy Joe Daniel of the Harrison County Sheriff's Office.
The accident occurred at 5:17 p.m. Thursday on U.S. 27 North, one mile north of Cynthiana. Kroh was on her way to Walmart, according to the report. Kroh arrived at HMH at 5:37 p.m. Daniel was notified of Kroh's death at 6:25 p.m.
Two new Cynthiana police officers were sworn in at the Tuesday, June 9, meeting of the Cynthiana City Commission. Michael Coppage, a certified police officer from Cynthiana, who is coming back home, repeated the oath of office with City Attorney John Lair. Vance Meighan of Bath County, will be going through extensive training at the police academy at Eastern Kentucky University.
To say that Frazier Dailey is proud of his tractor is probably a vast understatement.
The 73-year-old nearly came to tears Friday talking about the 1938 RC Case tractor that he's owned since 1966.
The Cynthiana City Commission will have the first reading of its 2015-16 fiscal year budget Thursday at 8:30 a.m. The second reading will be made at the regular meeting on Tuesday, June 23, at 5:30 p.m.
Margaret Watson has seen the promise from the Bible that "those who ask will receive" be fulfilled more than once.

Schooling the New South: Pedagogy, Self, and Society in North Carolina, 1880-1920
University of North Carolina Press, Feb 1, 1999 - Education - 338 pages
Schooling the New South is a vivid account of the relationship between education and society during a time of sweeping social change. James Leloudis recreates North Carolina's classrooms as they existed at the turn of the century and explores the wide-ranging social and psychological implications of the transition from old-fashioned common schools to modern graded schools. He argues that this critical change in methods of instruction both reflected and guided the transformation of the American South. According to Leloudis, architects of the New South embraced the public school as an institution capable of remodeling their world according to the principles of free labor and market exchange. By altering habits of learning, they hoped to instill in students a vision of life that valued individual ambition and enterprise above the familiar relations of family, church, and community. Their efforts eventually created both a social and a pedagogical revolution, says Leloudis. Public schools became what they are today - the primary institution responsible for the socialization of children and therefore the principal battleground for society's conflicts over race, class, and gender. The book gives voice to the principal actors in this transformation - school administrators, teachers, reformers, parents, and students - whose characters and personal experiences shine through Leloudis's narrative. Based on the letters and reminiscences of parents, teachers, and students; on novels; and on more traditional documentary sources, Schooling the New South deftly combines social and political history, gender studies, and African American history into a story of educational reform.

Throughout my employment history, I have entered inventory data, UPC numbers, accounting figures, and other bookkeeping tasks. I have much financial experience along with my data entry. My experience with Accounting for Walmart taught me much about balances and spreadsheets, and my experience with Rent A Center and Valued Services helped me to hone my telephone etiquette.
