take the time
Slow down and take the time to fulfill my needs. I have taken my time when it comes to you. I don't rush into it and then just stop and say that it is my turn. I make sure that your needs are met and I make sure to put your needs first, before mine. And that is not an easy thing to do.
Find that spot that just makes me let out deep breath. Excite my senses making me want to return the favor ten times over. Intertwine your fingers with mine letting me know that you like what I can do with them. Make me think that this is more than it really is, lay with me, and hold me before you "have to" leave.
But make sure you kiss me before you leave so that I know that what we have is real, more real then a dream.

Incision won't heal 3 months post surgery. What is wrong? (Photo)
I had problem with fluid build up 6 weeks after surgery. Now 3 months later, the incision open up again and there is discharge. What is wrong?
Doctor Answers 4
Non healing
Obviously you need to be seen and evaluated but you could be "spitting" deep sutures. Please go back to your surgeon and have him evalauate the wound and begin appropriate treatment. Dr. Corbin
Sutures spitting
Based on the picture I'd say you had some deep long acting absorbable sutures that are trying to work themselves out. Hopefully the issue will resolve itself either with the sutures coming out on their own or dissolving.
Open Wound- 3 months post op
Having an open wound 3 months post op is certainly not the norm.
If you had a seroma post op and the wound is now open, the wound may need to be excised and re-closed.
Please see your PS.

Perhaps retained sutures?
It is difficult to tell exactly where this wound is located but what you describe is certainly abnormal. This course and appearance could be caused by retained sutures (either non-absorbable or absorbable that have not disappeared in the usual manner.) You should return to your original surgeon to have this evaluated.

If Love ExistMature
If love exist, hearts wouldn't be broken tears wouldn't shed from out eyes like rain falls from the sky. the sky wouldn't be gray, the wind would be breezy to where out hair blew in all types of directions. I'm not saying it doesn't but if it did. We would feel chills and men would warm us up like hot chocolate, and a cozy blanket in the winter. Our cheeks would turn red, like we had the flu, but the truth is we are sick from the love that you give us. This wouldn't be a bad thing if love did exist. Making love would have an actual definition. Your heart beats would match one another's, you lips would complete each other's sentences, and your mind will think a like. If love did exist heads would turn, jaws would drop, and hearts would be touched, and eyes will be opened that if love did exist you wouldn't feel normal. I'm not saying it does but if love did exist.... falling wouldn't be so painful, because I fell for you.

We lost our daughter Rani in a festival in Guntur way back in 2006 and we recognise Geeta is our lost daughter claim a couple from Narsapur village of Khammam.
The Couple strengthen their claims by saying even Rani used to have a small mole on her forehead, squint in the eye and warts on her hands.
The couple are farmer and are willing to undergo DNA test and confidently says their daughter would surely recognize them.
However, The actual facts doesn't match with the Khammam Couple's claim. Geeta was first noticed by Pakistani rangers in the year 2003. Whereas, The couple says they lost their daughter in 2006.
The movie 'Bajranji Bhaijaan' which brought the tale of Geeta to limelight, One Family each from Uttar Pradesh, Bihar, Jharhand and Punjab came forward to claim Geeta is their daughter. Ministry for External Affairs is busy finding out the blood relation of Geeta in India.

The space of make: A topological account of the studio
Robb, Charles (2014) The space of make: A topological account of the studio. In GEOcritical, Art Assoc of Australia and New Zealand (AAANZ) Annual Conference 2014, 5-8 December 2014, University of Tasmania, Launceston, TAS. (Unpublished)
|Accepted Version (PDF 164kB)
Approaches to art-practice-as-research tend to draw a distinction between the processes of creative practice and scholarly reflection. According to this template, the two sites of activity – studio/desk, work/writing, body/mind – form the 'correlative' entity known as research. Creative research is said to be produced by the navigation of world and thought: spaces that exist in a continual state of tension with one another. Either we have the studio tethered to brute reality while the desk floats free as a site for the fluid cross-pollination of texts and concepts. Or alternatively, the studio is characterized by the amorphous, intuitive play of forms and ideas, while the desk represents its cartography, mapping and fixing its various fluidities. In either case, the research status of art practice is figured as a fundamentally riven space.
However, the nascent philosophy of Speculative Realism proposes a different ontology – one in which the space of human activity comprises its own reality, independent of human perception. The challenge it poses to traditional metaphysics is to rethink the world as if it were a real space. When applied to practice-led research, this reconceptualization challenges the creative researcher to consider creative research as a contiguous space – a topology where thinking and making are not dichotomous points but inflections in an amorphous and dynamic field. Instead of being subject to the vertical tension between earth and air, a topology of practice emphasizes its encapsulated, undulating reality – an agentive 'object' formed according to properties of connectedness, movement and differentiation.
Taking the central ideas of Quentin Meillassoux and Graham Harman as a point of departure, this paper will provide a speculative account of the interplay of spatialities that characterise the author's studio practice. In so doing, the paper will model the innovative methodological potential produced by the analysis of topological dimensions of the studio and the way they can be said to move beyond the 'geo-critical' divide.

Our new towels are the world's first flat weave Hemp blend towels. Long have we been searching for the perfect towel that would be naturally anti-microbial, absorbent, fast drying, compact and extremely durable while also being made from sustainable textiles. At last we have done exactly that by making the world's first flat weave Hemp towels. These work great as all all purpose towel but they are particularly handy when using for travel or the gym as they take up only a fraction of space compared to standard towels.
For the bath towels in particular you'll also find that they easily air dry between uses which means they'll stay very fresh vs the all too frequent towel funk that builds on regular towels. Once you've experienced these we're confident you'll never go back to standard towels.

TCA burn, hypopigmentation?
Doctor Answers 3
TCA burn, hypopigmentation?
Thanks for your query. You should always get a peel under medical supervision. The brown spot will go but it takes time. Does not peel or fiddle with it as it can give you hypo pigmentation? Just moisturize it well and use proper sun block. If you experience itching or pain over it you can use mometasone cream over it . Avoid retin A cream as it can further cause scabbing. Hope it helps.
All The Best

Wound care after TCA.
20% is pretty strong for a home peel. Now, the aim is to care for your wound with proper dressings and to prevent infection and PIH or skin colour changes. This has to be assessed by a Specialist. Do NOT place a retinoid on wounds this early or it will cause irritation and may worsen things. Video below shows how to do a LOW concentration peel safely. Take care. All the best, Dr Davin Lim. Brisbane. Australia.

Chemical Peel Safety--Always see an expert
I recommend getting a formal consultation with a cosmetic dermatologist in order to advise you on aftercare. I advise you to not apply TCA peels yourself and to always seek a professional in order to have these administered. See an expert. Best, Dr. Emer

Golf: Birdie blitz carries Donald into Dubai contention
By Matt Smith
DUBAI (Reuters) - Former world number one Luke Donald recorded six successive birdies in a second round 66 at the DP World Tour Championship, Dubai on Friday to bolster his chances of claiming a first win of the year on the European circuit.
After bogeying the first hole, the Englishman went on a birdie blitz from the second to rocket up the leaderboard under overcast skies.
He found the Earth course's back nine tougher going as the sun burnt through the haze, however, ending the day with a five-under aggregate of 139 at the halfway stage following a one-over first-round 73 on Thursday.
The 35-year-old, winner of the European and U.S. money lists in 2011, was four shots behind leader Alejandro Canizares as the late starters reached the turn.
"Yesterday I walked off despondent - I felt my game was very close and I showed that today," Donald told reporters.
"I wasn't far away yesterday, I was just making some mental errors and pressing a little too hard. Today, I tried to be more patient and not think about the score so much.
"Usually it's pretty low scoring here, I certainly need to go low in the next two days."

We had SUCH a wonderful time! The Alcorns, the Grunkes, and the Millers threw an INCREDIBLE party and Jeff and I were lucky our friends and family could be there. I finally got to meet some of his parents longtime friends and work colleagues and it was so funny listening to them tell stories about my beau.
The theme of our shower and Jeff's unlikely new best friend will forever now be known as Wilton Armetale. We registered for a bunch of their pieces and I think everyone got together before this shower to plot to give us all of it--it was so funny because I am obsessed with their servingware, and Jeff kept saying "oh yay--a platter/bowl/dish/etc".
We finished opening all of our wonderful gifts...crystal, luggage, Tervis tumblers, old fashioned glasses, mixing bowls, kitchen utensils, china pieces, and serving platters, just to name a few and then I got to give out the hostess gifts. This took A LOT of time for me as I wanted to give each of the couples something fun and useful and hopefully something none of them had. So I did some investigating and searching and stumbled upon Williams Sonoma Ebelskiver Pans and Pancake Mix. Turns out, they were the perfect gift and everyone was really excited to try out a new fun breakfast dish!
After munching on all the delish food, not to mention the banana pudding parfaits--oh the key to my heart, and Meg's dad Bob chasing us around with wine all night, we all headed to Downtown Grill for some late night
Sunday morning, we were up early to dine on homemade brunch made by Bev, had our first experience with Cambodian food--which was really good by the way, and then headed home. Lucky for me, I had my wonderful MOH come over to help finish stuffing wedding invitations so I made her and her hubby dinner as a thank you. Fast forward to nighttime and it was time for this little lady to hit the sack...exhausting, but FUN FUN FUN weekend!!
{and yes I promise to post LOADS of pics as soon as I get my hands on some!}

never in my 62 years have I been treated so badly, nor have had to deal with such incompetence,

Nine months after closing my account, and after at least 6 very lengthly attempts on the phone to get the "return kit", which I never received, they charged me for the equipment, and sent that to a collection agency, without even telling me. When they admitted that they had sent to a completely wrong address, they then refused to send me another.

A week ago I grabbed dinner at Blowin Smoke on HWY113.
Gotta say, pretty solid. A few misses, but some great hits.
The menu is vast; probably a bit too vast. I can see a lot of the non-specialties falling by the wayside. Both my wife and I had the same thing, the "Chief." It was basically a BBQ sampler platter. As much as I was intrigued by many of the sandwiches, I figured a little bit of the big ones would give me a feel for the restaurant.
That was a good decision.
Now, this is unabashedly KC style BBQ. So you get the sweeter, tomato-y sauce. This isn't a bad thing. And they bring it to you on the side so if you wish to skip it, you can. And thankfully they don't slather it on everything before it gets heated, resulting in that kind of bitter burned sugar flavor a lot of chain BBQ hits you with. The sauce was good, not too sweet. I'm not always a sauce guy but when in KC, do as the KCians, right?
The Chief came with a bit of chopped pork shoulder, three ribs, a few hunks of sausage, brisket, and two sides. It sounds like a lot, and it was, but it wasn't an insurmountable mountain of food.
The clear winners on this plate were the pork products. The ribs were delicious - tender, juicy, and very smoky. Not too heavily seasoned, but they had a nice bit of smoke tang. The meat pulled away from the bone nicely, but still had some texture. The pork shoulder had a similar, slightly meatier flavor, and had lovely bits of caramelized pork fat on it. Wasn't quite as epic as the ribs, but really tasty, and especially so with the sauce.
The sausage was surprisingly good as well. Not quite as well-rounded as the main pork, but surprisingly it had a nice bit of texture to it. So often smoked sausage has the sort of homogenous hotdoggy feel to it, but there was clearly a coarse grind going on here. It was almost crumbly, in a way, although it wasn't dry. Tasty, too. Not sure if I'd make a whole meal of this, but it was a nice addition.
The brisket was...well, I've had worse brisket, but I've had better. It was a little bit on the dry side. Nicely seasoned, nicely smoked, but it didn't quite have the resillience and unctiousness I expect from a good, moist hunk of slow smoked brisket, and the sweet sauce didn't have enough acid to stand up to the beef. Not bad, but not great, probably made less impressive in comparison to the ribs.
The sides were a little weak too. The cole slaw was one-note - I'm pretty sure someone forgot to put anything in the dressing but mayonnaise - and while the baked beans had some nice hunks of smoked pork mixed in and some good flavor, the texture was a bit thick and kind of mealy, as though the beans had been overstewed (which is likely what happened). I'm willing to give them the benefit of the doubt on the beans, at least.
The place was clean, service was snappy (I swear they had about two servers per table. First time I've ever been to a slightly overstaffed restaurant), and while the dining room was busy, it seems even more popular for carryout - the line for carryout meat was out the door by the time we left.
So a few minor missteps, which I either hope they rectify or I'll probably just ignore, but the ribs and pork shoulder alone are worth the trip.

Charter Offers to Buy Time Warner Cable in $61 Billion DealAlex Sherman
Charter Communications Inc. offered to buy Time Warner Cable Inc. for about $132.50 a share, valuing the second-largest U.S. cable provider at more than $61 billion, including debt.
Excluding debt, Charter would pay about $37.3 billion. The proposal includes about $83 cash per share and about $49.50 in Charter stock, Tom Rutledge, Charter's chief executive officer, said in an interview. The offer is the third-largest for any global company since 2009, data compiled by Bloomberg show.
Charter today sent a letter to Time Warner's CEO, explaining why the company's offer is beneficial for shareholders. Charter is attempting to acquire Time Warner Cable, a company with an enterprise value more than twice Charter's size, to create a provider of TV, Internet and phone for about 20 million customers in 38 states. Rutledge said he last proposed an acquisition in late December, around Christmas, which incoming Time Warner Cable CEO Rob Marcus rejected.
"We haven't received a serious response," Rutledge said today in a telephone interview. "Our objective was to talk to management and try to get them engaged. They have not, so we're going to make our case to shareholders about why this deal is good for them and hope they ask management and the board to watch out for the interests of shareholders."
Time Warner Cable's board rejected Charter's offer calling it "grossly inadequate," according to a statement today. Marcus said the company is open to a deal with Charter for $160 a share, comprising $100 in cash and $60 in Charter common stock.
TWC Shares
Time Warner Cable's shares rose 1.6 percent to $134.50 after the close in New York, giving it a market value of $37.9 billion. It has climbed about 40 percent since June on renewed speculation of cable-industry mergers.
Rutledge and Charter Chief Financial Officer Chris Winfrey met with Marcus and Time Warner Cable CFO Artie Minson in December to walk through details of the offer, including structure, financing, tax and cash flow implications, according to the letter. Charter indicated its willingness then to submit a proposal in the low $130s, including a cash component of $83.
When Time Warner Cable responded to that with a request for a higher bid including a higher cash component, Charter determined its bigger peer wasn't interested in pursuing a merger agreement, according to the letter.
'All Options'
That response was "not a serious offer," said Rutledge. "They knew the price they were offering was designed to not appeal." Time Warner Cable also refused to share any due diligence details or its projections of future cash flows, Rutledge said.
Charter is preserving "all options going forward," according to the letter. That may include nominating a slate of directors to Time Warner Cable's board or a tender offer, a person with knowledge of the matter said. Still, Rutledge would prefer to complete a friendly cash and stock deal as soon as possible, he said. Charter has "fully negotiated" financing and can be "in a position to sign commitment letters in a matter of days," the letter shows.
Leverage, Service
Time Warner Cable shareholders would own about 45 percent of the new company in the proposed deal, Rutledge said. The combined company would have more leverage in future negotiations with content providers, who have been raising annual prices at about 10 percent per year. An acquisition would also allow Charter, the fourth-largest cable operator, to use its net operating losses as a future tax shield.
Moreover, Charter would improve Time Warner Cable's customer service and restart video growth, Rutledge said.
"Since we made our first proposal, Time Warner Cable has lost another half million video customers," Rutledge said. "Their customer service continues to decline in every measure. We can improve it. We have a demonstrated track record of improving customer service. It's a question of credibility."
Time Warner Cable lost 215,000 video subscribers in the fourth quarter after a 304,000 loss in the third quarter. The company has the lowest customer satisfaction score among all pay-TV operators and the second-lowest score among all companies ranked in the American Customer Satisfaction Index for 2013, behind only the Long Island Power Authority.
Several Approaches
The cable company resisted Charter's approaches to reach a friendly deal on several occasions over the past few months: in June, October and, most recently, December, Rutledge said. He said he last spoke with Marcus at the Consumer Electronics Show this month in Las Vegas.
Bloomberg first reported Charter's intent to make an offer for Time Warner Cable last month. A successful takeover would be the largest of a cable company since Comcast Corp. acquired AT&T Broadband in 2001 for about $72 billion.
Billionaire John Malone, whose Liberty Media Corp. is Charter's largest shareholder, told investors last month he expects Time Warner Cable to reject Charter's opening bid, according to people familiar with the matter. He has had internal discussions with Rutledge about a list of directors to name to Time Warner Cable's board before the window for nominations closes on Feb. 15, another person said.
Courtnee Ulrich, a spokeswoman for Liberty Media, said the company supports Charter's efforts and looks forward to participating.
"We have been encouraged by Time Warner Cable shareholders to pursue this opportunity," she said.
Sirius Deal
Liberty, the majority owner of Sirius XM Holdings Inc., announced an all-stock offer for the outstanding shares of the satellite-radio company last week. That deal may help fund an offer for Time Warner Cable by giving Liberty more cash flow and additional assets to borrow against, Chief Executive Officer Greg Maffei said in an interview.
Charter's offer is for all of Time Warner Cable, which has about 12 million video customers and cable assets in cities including New York City, Los Angeles and Dallas.
Comcast also is considering a bid, either on its own or with Charter, people with knowledge of the matter have said. The largest U.S. cable operator may be interested in acquiring the New York market, some midwestern cable regions and Time Warner Cable's regional sports networks, which broadcast L.A. Dodgers and L.A. Lakers games, Shahid Khan, co-founder and chairman of Mediamorph Inc., said in an interview.
A Charter deal for Time Warner Cable could be completed first, before Comcast obtains divested assets, according to Craig Moffett, an analyst at MoffettNathason LLC. Rutledge declined to say if he was having active negotiations with Comcast or Cox.
Larger Takeovers
Since 2009, there have been just two larger takeover offers, and both were accepted. Only Pfizer Inc.'s $64.2 billion deal for Wyeth LLC in 2009 and Verizon Communications Inc.'s $130 billion acquisition of Vodafone Group Plc's Verizon Wireless stake last year top the value of Charter's offer.
Goldman Sachs Group Inc. and LionTree Advisors LLC are serving as lead financial advisers to Charter. Guggenheim Securities LLC is also advising Charter.
Bank of America Corp., Credit Suisse Group AG, Deutsche Bank AG and Goldman would provide the financing for a transaction. Law firms Wachtell Lipton Rosen & Katz and Kirkland & Ellis LLP are representing Charter.

With only one wheel and often a clown on top, unicycles are clearly meant to be silly. But your reaction to seeing one could say a lot more about you than you think.
Researchers at Newcastle University have studied the reactions of men and women on seeing a trick cyclist, and say their findings suggest that humour in men may develop from aggression. The results, in the latest Journal of Psychology Research and Behaviour Management, show big differences between male and female response.
Nine out of 10 women would make warm, kind and encouraging remarks, while young children were interested and curious. But as boys grew older, their reactions became increasingly unpleasant. Curiosity typically turned into physical and verbal aggression, and they would throw stones or attempt to obstruct the rider by shouting, "Fall off!"
Grown men suppressed the urge to injure the rider, but became snide and aggressive, and would often make jokes about the single wheel.
Professor Sam Shuster of Newcastle University, who rides a unicycle, studied data from more than 30 unicyclists aged between 15 and 69, from the UK and across the world, with up to 40 years' experience. He discovered an astonishing consistency of responses from boys and men, regardless of social class, geography or era, which suggests a common biological mechanism. Changes in male hormones, which are associated with aggression, around the time of puberty, account for this. "The consistent response to seeing a unicyclist is related to sexual development, suggesting that humour develops from aggression in males," he says.
It points out other links between aggression and humour: "Laughter associated with tickle, considered by some to be the origin of humour, is neurologically related to pain and moves easily into agony. A relationship between humour and aggression may also help explain the enjoyment of practical jokes, 'gallows humour' and the humour of verbal combat, whether over the dinner table or on the football terrace, where its enjoyment can relate to the discomfort it causes.''
The study was borne out of personal experience. Professor Shuster has described in the British Medical Journal how he was tempted by the allure of a gleaming chrome unicycle: "My wife said buy it, which I did. After months of practice at home, I graduated to back streets, a small paved park, and finally town roads. I couldn't avoid being noticed; in turn, I couldn't avoid observing the form that notice took."

Unlike many firms, Willkie's usually busy in all economic weathers, evidenced by glowing financials year-in, year-out.
WILLKIE Farr & Gallagher was founded way back in 1888 as Hornblower & Byrne, with four lawyers in its single office. Multiple name changes later, Willkie has 650 lawyers in its nine offices around the world. Most are based in the US, New York in particular. The firm also has a good-sized Washington, DC office, and recently set up shop in Houston. Willkie has a long-running relationship with National League Baseball, and once counted Thomas Edison and a brokerage firm owned by Ulysses S. Grant as clients. Willkie continues to shine financially. The past several years have seen revenue rising steadily a few percent each year, and in 2014 it soared 14.5% to $640 million. It went up 2.8% in 2015.
Back in 2012, Willkie scooped up all 12 of Dewey & LeBoeuf's outgoing insurance partners, and its work in the insurance sector gets top marks from Chambers USA. Willkie's not a one-trick pony, however, and its private equity, corporate/M&A, investment funds, bankruptcy, tax, securities, litigation, and telecoms are among the other practices that pick up excellent rankings. "We're busy in all business cycles," chair of the professional personnel committee Tom Henry tells us, "whether that's a distressed market led by bankruptcy or a frothy one led by a traditional M&A offering."
"DC and New York operate to a large degree as one office," an associate in the capital told us. "Generally DC associates are staffed on DC matters and vice versa," the informant continued, "but you can be staffed on either Washington or New York matters depending on the firm's needs." The ten-lawyer Houston office opened up in 2014 to serve Willkie's longstanding clients here, many of whom are in the energy sector. This Texas office sees a fair volume of referrals from NYC and DC.
"You can be staffed on either Washington or New York matters..."
"Post-renovation, it's going to be really nice," said an associate of the soon-to-be-done-up DC office, "but right now it's a little dated." No complaints about the location, though: "We're on 19th and K Street, there are three major metro stations within a two-block radius, and it's a ten-minute walk to the White House." New York also gets top marks for its location: "We're located next to every subway, so that's really nice," said a Manhattanite of the firm's Midtown base.
DC has a "smaller and more familiar" atmosphere, according to our sources there, and new associates get their own offices on arrival. This is in contrast to New York where newbies share offices for their first year. "It's a little irritating," admitted one, "but you get your own office quickly enough." Perhaps to make up for this, in New York 3.30pm every day is 'cookie time' in the office's attorney lounge. "It's hard to resist their siren song!" laughed an associate. The health-conscious among you may be interested to know that "they're diversifying cookie time," with hummus and vegetables available on Tuesdays and crackers and cheese on Friday.
The Work
Litigation and corporate are the two biggest intake groups, followed by asset management, real estate, executive compensation & employee benefits, tax and IP. Departments operate a formal work assignment system. "It's nice not to have a free-market system," one attorney ventured. "If my hours are low I can just go to the assigning partner and say, 'Hey, I have 15 free hours.'" Insiders also thought that the formality of the system helped prevent associates competing for work, as well as keeping them from getting swamped. "If all the partners were emailing me directly, I imagine it would be hard to say no," opined a Washingtonian.
"We're not pigeonholed into a certain type of client."
"We're not pigeonholed into a certain type of client," said an associate in DC, and this generalist approach holds for New York too, in both litigation and corporate. Asset management is split into "three big buckets:" private equity; registered funds; and unregistered funds. Much of it is the same "day-to-day work" that any junior associate would do, including "reviewing diligence documents to make sure the disclosures are current and proper," but there are also "more substantive client-facing assignments" on offer, including sitting in on client calls and "direct interfacing."
In addition to "traditional commercial disputes," litigators can get involved in insurance bust-ups, FCPA investigations, securities disputes and antitrust work. Attorneys handling the old-fashioned commercial litigation cases will do traditional commercial litigation tasks such as "research, drafting memos, doc review, discussing case strategy and drafting parts of motions." On the more specialized areas, the work can get a bit wacky – for example attorneys doing FCPA work can find themselves helping to interview whistle-blowers or trawling through employee emails. The latter was described as "fascinating" by one associate, "as you're reviewing emails that were sent years ago by people who had no idea that they could be checked."
"It's not trite to say that there's a great camaraderie."
Contrary to what you might have thought, "it's not trite to say that there's a great camaraderie," one of our sources enthused, at least not at Willkie. "It didn't seem as cut-throat as some of the other places I interviewed at," said another. Insiders attributed this to the firm's billable hours requirement; more specifically its lack of one. "We try to have each other's backs," one told us, "but I can't help wondering, if we had an hours requirement would we be competing for work?" This camaraderie is not just between members of the same class year; while there's "an obvious hierarchy," relations with partners and senior associates are also top-notch. "They try to help you become a better lawyer," said a DC-er of the firm's bigwigs.
"The partners are making diversity a priority at OCI level."
Diversity at Willkie is "a bit like at law school," we were told, in that "incoming classes have been more diverse, but there's still a lot of work to be done." Associates agreed that making the firm's partnership more representative was key to making the firm as a whole more diverse. "A lot of diverse people are hesitant to come here because they're underrepresented at partnership level," speculated one. "It's a cycle; if there aren't any female partners, women aren't going to want to stay long enough to make partner," added another. The powers that be are aware of the situation, however, and juniors reckoned "the partners are making diversity a priority at OCI level." The firm has women's committees, and one initiative singled out for particular praise was an "eye-opening" implicit bias talk.
Hours & Compensation and Pro Bono
"It didn't even occur to me how big not having an hours target would be," admitted one lawyer, while another said: "I have almost unilateral control over when I get in." While no billing target means no internal rivalry, it doesn't mean no work. As one insider put it, "no one is doing head checks at the start of the day, but getting out is harder." A financier joked that in some of the busier departments attorneys "sometimes almost wish there was a billing target." Day-to-day hours were broadly similar to those worked at other firms. In the words of one attorney, "I never leave before 6.30pm, but I rarely leave after 8.30pm." Of course, deal deadlines and corporate timetables still apply, billable hours target or no, so some late nights are inevitable, and at least one attorney we spoke to had "a couple of nights where I've slept at the office." That said, with no targets to hit, "there's less pressure to bill random hours."
"My schedule has been so crazy."
Not only is there no billing target, but there's no cap on the number of pro bono hours associates can treat as billable. A frequent email is circulated letting people know what opportunities are in the pipeline. The firm regularly partners with the Lawyers' Committee in DC, and Her Justice in New York which works with domestic violence victims. Interested attorneys can complete a three or four-month externship here. Back at the office, pro bono work can range in size from "small matters that juniors can handle with minimal supervision," to large partner-led cases, and includes asylum cases, LGBT rights work, helping incorporate nonprofit organizations and assisting the government in preventing the exploitation of recent immigrants. While there's "a ridiculous number of pro bono opportunities if you have the time for them," not all the associates we spoke to had time. "My schedule has been so crazy," lamented one. Similarly, some transactional attorneys worried that they lacked the skills to "provide good pro bono advice." These grumbles should become a thing of the past: 2015 saw pro bono hours billed at the firm jump by 50%.
In June 2016, Willkie was one of the first firms to announce increased associate salaries, with first-years in all US offices up to $180,000.
Pro bono hours
Get Hired
"The OCI was more about my background," recollected one New Yorker, "and about my knowledge of Willkie and what it does." Instead of fishing for stock answers, the firm "puts the ball in the person's court" during interviews. "They asked a lot of open questions and let me speak," recalled one former jobseeker. You'll need brains to work at Willkie – that's a given – but the firm also wants to make sure that new hires fit in with their colleagues. "It's really important to Willkie that they find a good personality fit as well as an intellectual fit," explained another.
"Personality fit as well as an intellectual fit."
Teamwork is also high on the firm's agenda, according to professional personnel committee head Tom Henry. "You'll be working with people in different departments, in different offices and with different strengths," he explains, "so we want people who want to roll up their sleeves and be part of the team." He also advises applicants to do their homework and find out more about the firm. Beyond this, though, there's no particular Willkie 'type': "We attract a broad pool of people," he says, "but the better informed an applicant is, the better they'll do."
Training & Development
Newbies kick off their time at the firm with two weeks of orientation in New York, "acclimating to the computer systems and learning how the support staff work," and completing a 'mini MBA.' This is then followed by department-specific bootcamps covering issues unique to individual practice groups. In addition, there are regular lunchtime CLEs. "I think it would be helpful if it was all given again nine months later," thought one source, because "you feel a little overwhelmed with information at the time." The CLEs themselves cover everything from "the mathematics of how to certify classes" in antitrust litigation to "a talk from an investment banker on how to read a balance sheet."
"A little overwhelmed with information."
Performance reviews take place annually, with a midyear review for first-years, although "you only hear anything at the midyear point if there's something wrong." Even at the annual review, associates told us, no news was good news. "In practice, you go in and they're like, 'You're doing a good job, goodbye,'" said one. When there is substantive feedback, it is often delivered "using the sandwich method – they'll say, 'You did well on this, not so good on that, and well on this.'" Feedback is sought on every matter that the reviewee spent 25 billable hours or more on over the previous year, and reviewers rate associates as meeting, exceeding or failing to meet expectations.
Mentoring abounds, and begins during during the summer program, where each fledgling legal-eagle gets both a partner and an associate mentor. These are deliberately chosen from "random" departments, as "summers don't know what group they want to be in." Upon arrival full-time, each new associate gets a partner and associate mentor within their chosen group. "The seniors I worked with were very willing to sit down and teach you things you didn't get formal training on," recollected one source.
Strategy & Future
"We went into 2015 knowing we'd have big shoes to fill, and we exceeded our previous records," says head of the professional personnel committee Tom Henry. He credits this to the firm's ability to do "transformative, multijurisdictional deals," but also to the fact that Willkie "does 'collegial' better than other firms." A bold claim, given how often we hear that word, but Willkie deliberately scatters lawyers from different practice groups across the firm to foster idea-sharing.
As we mentioned at the start, Willkie is confident in its ability to operate in both calm and choppy economic waters. The firm's decision to open an office in energy hub Houston at a time of low oil prices is an example of this, according to Tom Henry. "Energy work forms a growing part of our M&A and private equity practices," Henry explains, "but because of the disruption of the energy markets, we can also bring our restructuring and bankruptcy expertise to bear."
Interview with Tom Henry, chair of the Professional Personnel Committee
Chambers Associate: What highlights from the past year would you like to flag to our student readers interested in your firm?
Tom Henry: 2014 saw record growth for our firm, so we went into 2015 knowing we'd have big shoes to fill. I'm pleased to say that we exceeded our previous records. It was the best year we've had across multiple disciplines, practice areas and geographies. A great example of where we're able to amplify our abilities in M&A and private equity across borders with the purchase by Hudson's Bay Company – the oldest company in North America and owner of Saks, Lord & Taylor, Gilt and more – of the German department store chain Kaufhof. Willkie teams in New York and Frankfurt worked together with a client from Canada who was doing deals in the US to deploy capital in Europe. We also worked across disciplines, combining M&A and real estate capabilities to close large real estate financings of Hudson's Bay Company's stores. We don't work on cookie-cutter transactions, but instead focus on big, transformative matters.
CA: What's your long-term vision for the firm?
TH: We're very deliberate in the way we grow both our headcount and number of offices. Energy work forms a growing part of our M&A and private equity practices but because of the disruption of the energy markets, we can also bring our restructuring and bankruptcy experience to bear. We're busy in all business cycles, whether that's a distressed market led by bankruptcy or a frothy one led by traditional M&A. This gives us a 360 degree view of how transactions work through cycles.
CA: What would you say Willkie's core practice areas are?
TH: As I've already touched on, the firm is driven by our corporate M&A and private equity practices. These are recognized year in and year out as among the best in the US. In particular, our insurance transactional practice is considered the best in the country, our restructuring practice has been renowned for many years and our SEC regulatory enforcement and securities litigation groups are top-tier. Our FCPA practice is one of the more prominent in the industry, and spans multiple locations across the US and overseas.
CA: What are you looking for in a candidate? Or, to put it another way, what sort of person thrives at the firm?
TH: We look for self-starters, for motivated people who can demonstrate an interest in what they've done academically. We also want you to be team-focused. You'll be working with people in different departments, in different offices and with different strengths, so we want people who will roll up their sleeves and be part of the team.
CA: What can students do now to increase their chances of impressing you in their applications and at interview?
TH: We attract a broad pool of people, but the better informed an applicant is, the better they'll do. Make sure that you do your homework. It's not easy, but firms can be distinguished from one another, so the students who stand out will be the ones who can identify what makes Willkie different. Talk to our people on campus, talk to the people who have been through our summer program, and talk to the people in your career centers. They're your best objective resource. To the extent that it's possible, students should make sure that they can identify their long-term goals; it'll help you distinguish yourself. Additionally, the more clearly students can identify how they'll be a good fit, the better they'll do.
CA: Can you define the firm's character or culture?
TH: We have a culture that is open, transparent and involves associates in our day-to-day management. Associates sit on our various committees, ensuring the firm is run by its population, rather than by a top-down management model. Getting attorneys involved in management from an early stage means they develop management skills as they learn the practice of law. Willkie does 'collegial' better than other firms because we get our associates involved early. In our offices, we don't sit by practice groups – we're one firm, not a collection of different practice areas. Over time, neighbors become colleagues, who become friends. Our intranet – called WillkieNet – reports various milestones and deal highlights. It's regularly updated so that people know in real time what's going on throughout the firm. These are just a few examples of our open, transparent culture that fosters getting on together and liking each other.
CA: Who conducts OCI and callback interviews?
TH: We want to get our young lawyers involved in interviews at an early stage. Once they join us full-time, associates are a part of the team, and that's also true for the recruitment process. Interviews are performed by both partners and associates, but sometimes a well-informed associate who's been through the process might be a better resource than a partner. When candidates come to visit us, everybody is involved.We think our culture is one of our firm's greatest strengths and having a good mix of people involved with the interview process means that candidates can sense our collegiality.
CA: What questions do you ask during OCIs?
TH: It's conversational. We don't ask 'gotcha' questions. We want to see that candidates are conversant in the topics on their resume, but the process shouldn't be intimidating. We also want to make sure that we answer all the candidate's questions.
CA: Do you have any stories of people performing particularly well at interviews? Or any horror stories?
TH: No horror stories – I think careers centers generally do a good job at making sure that candidates know what to expect. People tend to do the best when they're themselves. Scripts and canned answers work less well than people who can speak and behave naturally. Of course it's a professional setting, and candidates need to be confident in who they are, but the fact that they're getting interviews with firms like Willkie shows in itself that others are confident in their abilities.
CA: What's your approach to judicial clerking and lateral hiring?
TH: We encourage judicial clerking – think it adds to attorneys' skill sets and we support it formally. Lateral hiring is on an 'as-needed' basis. We're fortunate in that we have a longer retention rate than some of our peer firms.
CA: What does Willkie offer that is really unique?
TH: What helps distinguish us is our commitment to ensuring that people are rewarded and recognized for hard work. Culturally, we make sure that people have the right balance between working hard and a life – the associates want a work-life balance and, frankly, so do the partners. We're all in it together. To that end, we have no billable hours requirement. We expect the same of all our associates – if they put their best foot forward, we commit to providing them with the best work regardless of whether they plan to stay for four years, eight years or 40 years.

So…This is my first time writing any sort of fan fiction in years. I've recently gotten nostalgic for the escape that writing gave me so I thought I'd try my hand at it again. The Puck Rachel Drabble Meme recently caught my eyes and since I can't seem to get enough of them so I figured why not.
I'm warning you now, I haven't done any creative writing since high school and even though I'm a junior in college my punctuation sucks. I don't have a beta so needless to say; this is probably a bit rough.
Disclaimer: I own nothing.
Puck is sitting in the tattoo parlor waiting for the dude with the badass skeleton on his bicep to get his equipment together. It's not his first tattoo and it certainly won't be his most painful but he's hoping that this one will stop his wife, whose currently at home sobbing to, you know, stop.
And he's not a douche for not trying to comfort her, he's just got awesome self preservation skills and he knows that going within fifty feet of their bedroom will result in the removal of his balls, which he's totally not ok with.
He was having a good day. He had just finished a contracting job and he was home early looking forward to spending a little extra time with his lady. When he walked through the door and went to wash his hands that's when she went utterly and completely ape shit.
"You aren't wearing you're ring, Noah."
He groaned as he turned off the water tap and grabbed a dish towel to dry his hands on. "Babe, are we really going to have this conversation again?"
They've been having the same fucking argument since the week they got back from their honeymoon. He legit doesn't understand what the big deal is but she goes freaking insane every single time she looks at his left hand. You see, he doesn't wear his wedding band to work. It's not because he's ashamed and it certainly isn't because he's cheating. Anyone who knew him in high school can and will attest to the fact that he's been proudly pussy whipped since he was seventeen.
Wearing the damn thing is an occupational hazard. He's a contractor and a damn good one but one wrong slip and his hand is fucked. None of the guys on his team wear them and all their wives understand but Rachel just doesn't get it. She's constantly trying to accuse him of trying to hide their marriage, which is such bullshit because he's never more proud than when she is on his arm. He puts it on as soon as he gets home and he wears it on his days off but it's clearly not good enough.
She glares at him, he's lucky looks can't kill 'cause he's pretty sure he'd be dead. "We wouldn't have to have this conversation if you'd just wear the ring to work."
"I told you why I don't."
"You know, people think we're having marital problems because you don't wear your ring. I heard that horrid Betsy Millsap blabbering on and on to her friend at the store today about how gorgeous you are and how your marriage must already be in shambles since you don't wear your ring!"
He tilts his head and blinks at her, "Who the fuck is Betsy Millsap?"
It's the wrong thing to say because suddenly she's spewing at least a hundred words a minute, throwing out words that would usually make him proud, except they're directed at him. She huffs one more time before she storms up to their room in tears, telling him to not speak to her until he "truly respects the sanctity of their marriage".
He doesn't know what that means but he knows his wife is fucking insane.
So that's why he's sitting there in the tiny tattoo shop hoping that this can be a solution to both of their problems.
"All done." Badass skeleton guy says bringing him out of his thoughts.
"Thanks man, you just saved me from a whole lot of crazy." Puck looks down and admires his new ink.
The guy just chuckles before handing Puck a receipt, "Any guy willing to do what you just did clearly loves that crazy a whole lot."
Puck nods, "That I do."
She's lying on the bed still sniffling when he walks through their bedroom door twenty minutes later.
"Hey, baby." She ignores him and shifts so she's on her side facing the wall. "Don't be like that, Rach."
"I just wish you understood. I love you more, I love you more than anything and the ring is a symbol of that. Wearing it makes me feel like you're with me even when you aren't. I want you to feel the same way."
Puck slides onto the bed so he's leaning over her, "I do. I do feel the same way. It's just that wearing the ring to work can be dangerous and I don't wanna risk a mistake and end up looking like Captain Hook, even though I could totally rock that look. So how about we compromise?"
"And what do you propose we do?"
"I kind of already did something." He slowly brings his left hand to her eye level to show her his ring finger which is now adorned with her name in black script. "Babe, I love you more than anything."
"Is that permanent?"
"Better fucking be. I know it's not the ring you gave me but it's a reminder of how much I love you for the rest of my life."
Tears welled up in her big brown eyes, "It's perfect. I love it, I love you. Thank you so much."
Puck leaned down and brought her lips to hers, brushing her hair out of her face. Yeah, she was crazy but she was his and if tattooing her name on his finger made her happy, he'd do it. Her name was already tattooed on his heart.
They broke apart and she smiled sweetly at him, "Noah, I think I want your name on my finger too."
Prompt: "Puck has his wife's name "Rach" tattooed on his ring finger. Or reversed and Rachel has "Noah" on hers."
So I'm not sure if I nailed their characters, I probably didn't but how about an A for effort? Let me know what you think!
