Flexibility location most co-workers are wonderful and talented individuals teamwork
upper Management relies to heavily on subordinates to do tasks they really need to be involved in lack of communication with subordinates often like a chess game who do you trust and who stands to gain your position
Advice to Management
take notice better of what their job truly entails and learn how much work lower level people do to make your everyday work environment productive. Also never use your lower level department heads inappropriately you never know who they may work for next or meet in their travels that could actually leverage your next business deal or diminish it.
Other Employee Reviews for Converse
Helpful (2)RecommendsNo opinion of CEO
The people who work at Converse are really good people who are passionate about what they do. The employees are typically fairly young and provide fresh ideas and are willing to learn. Great discounts among all brands - Nike, Converse, Cole Haan, Hurley and Umbro.
Being owned by Nike, Converse has become more and more political which is disappointing. The company is getting larger and its easy to see these two companies uniting into one.
Advice to Management
At Converse, the employees are the company's greatest asset and I would urge to make sure they are well compensated and find out what motivates them.

- Comp & Benefits
- Senior Management
Pros - fellow employees are fun / interesting people - fairly nice benefits package - laid back office environment - all in all good on paper
Cons - very little opportunity for advancement - management doesn't seem to appreciate employees as must valuable asset - management has limited viewpoint, not open to new ideas - rhetoric takes precedence over integrity
Advice to Management
Stop talking about being a world class company and actually practice what you preach. Work on corporate culture so employees feel valued- they'll work better, harder for you.

In Episode 97 of The Wendel Forum (originally aired on May 18, 2013, on 960 KNEW AM radio), show moderator Dick Lyons, co-founder of Wendel Rosen's sustainable business practice group, welcomes Santiago Cuenca-Romero, CEO of Premiere Organics, maker of Artisana Organic brand foods.
Santiago Cuenca-Romero, CEO of Premiere Organics
Founded 10 years ago, Artisana makes organic, raw foods such as ground and spreadable nuts and seeds. Organic refers to the way the ingredients are grown; raw, though it has no regulatory definition, refers to the way a product is cooked and processed. In particular, Artisana cooks its products at the lowest possible temperature because heat can alter nutritional qualities as well as colors and taste. Available in jars and pouches, Artisana's spreads include almonds, pecans, macadamia nuts, cashews and walnuts, sunflower seeds, coconut products and superfoods like berries and powders made from roots and leaves.
Cuenca-Romero grew up in Spain appreciating good food. He has a biochemistry degree and a master's in food science. Although he has no formal business, finance or economics training, his father served as a colonel in the Spanish army in charge of 5,000 officers. As a result, leadership, he says, is in his genes.
What's trending in food now, according to Cuenca-Romero, is a focus on allergens, gluten-free and dairy-free products, as well as an interest in superfoods, antioxidant and omega 3's.
When grocery shopping, do you seek out raw, organic foods?

"Fun & Funky design that is good for everyone in our family from the kids to the adults all year round. We'll be reordering. It would be absolutely perfect if it could be modified to say "A note from" or something like that so you aren't limited to sending as a thank you note, but not a big deal as we send mostly thank yous."
"The paper quality was outstanding and the artwork was exactly as pictured. I was very happy with my purchase. I also appreciate the free designer review."
"I loved the quality of the card and the ability to personalize it both inside and out. Everyone who received it thought it was a wonderful remembrance."
"It turned out better than I thought! I had them move the text box higher on the page and I changed the ultrasound picture to a color that better matched the card using their system. It makes it personal and makes everyone smile when they see it."
"Wonderful to have thank you cards to go w/ the invites. The product is just as nicely done as the invitations. Would highly recommend."

Truly nothing short of amazing. Beautiful place, people and scenery. We were so fortunate to be able to experience Florblanca. It's reputation proceeded it, and if anything was understated. The restaurant (and particularily the staff) were amazing, the spa massages were epic and the Yoga instructor was world class. Patient, kind, talented and hilarious. The Yoga was a huge factor is how awesome each day was. We saw amazing flora, fauna and creatures each day from our villa and grounds. The beach is beautiful, the view is beautiful, and your a short walk from a great swimming/surfing beach. Pool side is also fantastic, with all sorts of thoughtful touches ( ice water, sunscreen, towel service etc.) A Truly a lovely holiday!

TripAdvisor Reviews Ekena Hana
Travel Blogs from Hana
Hana - Away from It All
Hannah makes is a joyful name to us, yeah to our dear grand girl. But this Hana is of another variety.
A 25 minute flight drops us on Maui, the island most recommended by those who have been before. Unlike most, though, we have opted to stay outside the north town of Hana, a little populated rain-forested area (1200 souls) most known for …
Hiking in the clouds and Luau!
... a Luau at Feast at Lele in Lahaina (https://www.feastatlele.com/), where we met up with my coworker Ernie and his husband Randy who happen to also be in Maui for vacation when we were. Food, drinks, entertainment, and company were all amazing. My favorites were the Kahlua pork and some ceviche type dish. It was a late night and we got back to the cottage and went straight to bed.
Total Garmin Vivofit mileage 5.7, but again incorrect due to the trekking poles since we hiked 6 miles. ...
A whale of a time
... heights of mountains all around. Then we head off to Lahaina where we get free time to wander. The town was a haunt of whaling boats in the past and was very rowdy, now it is entirely devoted to tourism. It is said there are more galleries than in New York! The old buildings along Front Street are very reminiscent of New England, wooden frontages with balconies painted in different colours. It is very crowded there is a Princess ship docked as well as 4/5 of our coaches. ...
Lots of adrenalin & scenary
... trails with no rush. As the further most stop in Road to Hana, I highly recommend this stop to be included in the list!
Next stop Hamoa bay/beach - I would say one of the best in Maui if not the best fro swimming. White sand beach, no Waves, no rocks in makes swimming tuff...so just enjoy! This beach would be the only thing I would think of staying overnight in Hana region. Otherwise, prices are rocketing :( we stopped, had a great swim, a bit of sun, ...
Best Restaurant and Golf
... course is the 'Colonial Hills" of Maui, but better than the Colonial Hills of Lynchburg. The fairways are very wide. The course is mostly flat. The greens needed to be cut, but it has rained the last 3 days. Never the less, it was fun. The entire day was a 10 on a scale of 1 to 10. But everyday has been on the same scale. Tomorrow is snorkeling. Have to leave here at 6:30. Way to early for me these days. See you ...

The kitsch value soon fades and the terrible service, poor food and expensive prices for what you get start to take over. Find somewhere else.
The kitsch value soon fades and the terrible service, poor food and expensive prices for what you get start to take over. Find somewhere else.
The burgers are fantastic, unfortunately the service is always shocking. Save browsing the shop until waiting for the bill to arrive.
Cafe is still a shambles, it's as if they've done a time and motion study to work out the least effective method possible of running the place.
The kitchen is open to the restaurant, so eating in will be a hot a smokey experience. Whilst it's good to see them working in the kitchen I'd make this a takeaway only venue.
Currently cash only but seems pretty popular.
Tuesday night banquet night. Started, main, side and rice or bread form £11.95. A great deal.
Free for Angels, no pressure or patter. Choose what you fancy or let them recommend a few. Brilliant setup that takes the snobbery out of wine. If you haven't signed up... Do it now!
Small kids play area and an OK cafe for toasties and jacket potatoes.
20% discount online, not difficult find.
Fish cooked to order.
Fantastic breakfast, stock up for the day and save yourself a fortune!
Nice central place to meet and cheaper then John Lewis Cafe
Take the guided tour - whatever your views on the outside, you'll be impressed with the interior + its free!
Love the hot houses and a great place for a family stroll
Great day out when the weather isn't so great

Playing With: Best Years of Your Life
Basic Trope: Adults respond to a child or teen complaining about his/her life by saying that these are the best years of his/her life.
Can't you see? This is the best trope of your life!
- Straight: Alice complains to her parents about high school, and they respond that she shouldn't be complaining, since these are the best years of her life.
- Exaggerated: Alice comes home crying about being beat up mercilessly, mocked by teachers, assigned three times as much homework as her classmates, which she will get an F on no matter how hard she works, and spat on by the principal, and her parents say these are the best years of her life.
- Downplayed: Alice usually has an okay time at school, but she's hit a rough patch because of a fight with her friends and an upcoming test and her parents aren't giving any sympathy.
- Justified:
- Alice's parents believe that she actually does have a good life, and see her as a Spoiled Brat.
- Alice's parents had a great time in high school and only believe the same will happen to Alice, even if things have changed over the years.
- Alice's parents just doesn't care about Alice's problems and only did this to shut her up.
- Inverted:
- Alice's parents complain about their retirement, and she tells them they shouldn't complain, since retirement is supposed to be the best years of their life.
- Alice is happy in school, and her parents try to nag her into misery so that she will be happier later.
- Subverted: Alice complains to her parents about school, and they comfort her, never mentioning the BYOYL phrase. Alternatively, though they are initially dismissive, they eventually grow sympathetic to her plight.
- Double Subverted: Alice complains to her parents about school, and they comfort her at first, but it turns out they only acted sympathetic to try to use Socratic irony to show how absurd it is that she isn't calling high school the best years of her life.
- Parodied: We are treated to a montage of Alice suffering terribly at school, coming home more bruised and distressed each day, while her parents are shown after every scene of her suffering, telling her that these are the best years of her life.
- Zig Zagged: Alice's parents seesaw between sympathy for her plight and outrage that she would dare to complain about her teenage years.
- Averted: Alice never complains about high school to her parents.
- Enforced: The writer thinks that high school really was the best years of his life, so he has the parents in the work use the line. Alternatively, the studio is afraid of angry parents writing in to complain that they can no longer use the BYOYL line to stop their teenages from complaining because they watched a show featuring parents admitting that high school isn't the best years of their lives, so the studio uses the phrase in its programming.
- Lampshaded: Alice mocks her parents for using a line so trite and just plain wrong as BYOYL.
- Invoked: Alice complains about high school to her parents specifically to see if they use the BYOYL line, and when they do, she comes to the conclusion that their perceptions of high school are grossly unrealistic.
- Exploited: The corrupt mayor starts a campaign that pushes the BYOYL slogan, while changing school policies so they tacitly encouraging bullying, so the kids who come out end up so broken and dreamless that they gladly go work at his factory instead of aspiring to college or other higher pursuits.
- Defied:
- Alice refuses to tell her parents about her high school problems because she knows they'll just use the BYOYL line.
- Alice's parents refuse to use the BYOYL line, no matter how tempted they may be to use it, because they know how foolish it is.
- Discussed:
- Alice's parents debate whether they should use the BYOYL line with Alice once she starts complaining about high school.
- Alice and her parents argue about whether high school really is the best years of her life after her parents use the line.
- Conversed: Alice and her friends talk about parents in a TV show they watch using the BYOYL line.
- Deconstructed:
- Alice's high school life sucks, plain and simple, but because her parents keep telling her that high school is the best years of her life, she takes this to mean that life is only going to get worse, and thus become depressed, turns to drugs, or even commits suicide.
- After graduation, Alice quickly loses contact with anyone she even considered a friend and is unable to make new ones, making her highschool years better by comparison because she now has to handle the same issues alone.
- Reconstructed: After Alice complains to her parents about how much high school sucks, they comfort her while telling her that high school is supposed to be the best years of her life. However, rather than leave it at that, they give her advice to help her actually make them the best years of her life, and she succeeds.
- Plotted A Good Waste: The writer has Alice's parents use the BYOYL line to her to make the teenage audience dislike them and justify her not coming to them with serious problems.
- Played For Laughs: Alice's parents respond to her every little insignificant complaint, even the ones she just tossed out off-hand and isn't actually miffed by, by saying that high school is supposed to be the best years of her life.
- Played For Drama: Alice's parents use the BYOYL line to her whenever she complains about high school, causing such great disagreements between them that a permanent rift is driven in their relationship.
Can't you see? This is the best trope of your life!

Houston Pride: Dancing, Dining, Divas & Diving on the Bayou
Long ago Houston shed the remains of an outdated image as a sleepy Southern city to emerge as an economic dynamo and the fourth-largest city in the country. If you have any doubts that this is one of the most progressive American cities, consider this: The city's electorate have twice voted in a lesbian, Annise Parker, as mayor -- far and away the largest city in the nation to have an out-gay chief executive. Hear that, San Francisco?
The city's Pride celebrations similarly have exploded in recent years from a small local event to a regional one to one that brings in visitors from way beyond Texas and Louisiana. This being Texas, no one knows the meaning of "small," and this year's Houston Pride promises to be one of the biggest in the country, with the most varied roster of events.
Bette & Thelma
If you're a fan of Bette Midler (and if you're not, what are you doing on this site?), then you absolutely have to attend the Saturday, June 16, concert, when the city's Gay Men's Chorus presents "I'm Beautiful, Dammit: A Tribute to Bette Midler." Bring a mermaid outfit, if you really want to be in the swim. Go to this website for information and a link to ticket sales.
A real-live musical icon makes an appearance on Friday, June 22, when "Rainbow on the Green" presents Thelma Houston, whose cover of "Don't Leave Me This Way" was one of the biggest disco hits and still gets plenty of airplay and DJ rotations.
Houston is responsible for a huge number of hits, but for my money, nothing tops the soul-inflected Morning Music ballad, "Saturday Night, Sunday Morning." If you're not familiar with it, have a listen:
Get information here to this don't-miss event.
Pro Soccer, Fine Dining & Models in Underwear
If, like me, you prefer buff men in shorts who actually have to run their hearts out playing real football (OK, "soccer") to the American version, watch the Houston Dynamos take on Toronto FC on June 20. It's "Pride Dyno-Night," so do the Wave with your fellow LGBT sports fans. Information here.
Houston cuisine has long been associated with three major aspects of the city's culture. As one of the nation's largest ports, it serves up the delicacies of the Gulf of Mexico; Tex-Mex, of course; and, this being Texas, beef.

Kentucky rolls NKU, 93-63
Updated: Sunday, November 10 2013, 08:42 PM EST
LEXINGTON, Ky. (AP) -- Most impressive about Julius Randle's latest double-double was that the Kentucky freshman forward achieved it by halftime.
Yes, the top-ranked Wildcats had it that easy on Sunday against Northern Kentucky.
Randle had 22 points and 14 rebounds to lead a 93-63 blowout of the Norse.
Two days after the 6-foot-9, 250-pound forward debuted with 23 points and was credited on Sunday with 16 rebounds upon review, he had 11 points and 10 rebounds in the first half for the Wildcats (2-0).
Randle added 11 points and four rebounds before heading to the bench after playing 29 productive minutes against the overmatched Norse (0-2) — with room for improvement in his mind.
"I'm still missing some opportunities," said Randle, who made 10 of 14 free throws. "(There were) a lot of balls I didn't come up with. I just have to learn from it and improve."
Guard Aaron Harrison added 16 points for Kentucky while twin brother Andrew had 13. Alex Poythress contributed nine points while 7-footer Willie Cauley-Stein added seven points and 11 rebounds.
Needing a good tuneup with Tuesday's showdown looming against No. 2 Michigan State in Chicago, the Wildcats' much-heralded freshmen responded by dominating every area. Kentucky shot 30 of 55 from the field (54.5 percent), outrebounded NKU 51-23 and scored 36 points in the paint.
"I thought we played through possessions better," coach John Calipari said. "I thought we got to the second and third drive for the first time. Again, it's not their fault because it's something that we really zeroed in on yesterday...
"Today, we rebounded much better."
Daniel Camp's 13 points led Northern Kentucky in the first meeting between the schools located 83 miles apart. Tyler White added 12 points and Todd Johnson had 10 for the Norse.
The Wildcats were seeking a better start than in Friday night's 89-57, season-opening rout of UNC-Asheville, the first of three games in five days.
Kentucky's freshmen had a rough first half in that game and led by just 10 points at halftime before taking control offensively with their athleticism that left UNC-Asheville no choice but to foul; Randle had no problem with that, making 11 of 13 from the line en route to 23 points and a double-double.
Calipari took a mostly positive approach considering it was the first game together for his lauded group of rookies, but he noted a lot of blemishes. For example, his team's lack of defensive effort was something he stressed needed improvement — more against Northern Kentucky before looking ahead to Michigan State.
Calipari couldn't complain after Kentucky held NKU to 9-of-31 shooting in the first half on Sunday, though much of that had more to do with the Norse's understandable reluctance to try and drive inside against the bigger Wildcats. That left NKU to try and make things up from beyond the arc, a strategy that yielded just 3-of-18 shooting (16.7 percent) and played right into Kentucky's hands in numerous ways.
The Wildcats tallied just four fast-break points in the first half but had 16 second-chance points thanks to 12 offensive rebounds. They dominated the boards 29-12 through 20 minutes.
"We pushed the ball hard and Aaron was attacking very well," Andrew Harrison said. "He got to the line and made some shots. I made some shots. Everybody played good. We were playing together."
Figure in 5-of-13 shooting from long range (38 percent) and it quickly added to the expected lopsided outcome. Leading 16-10 after Poythress' 3-pointer, the Wildcats closed the half with a 32-12 run for a 48-22 lead.
Just two nights after losing its opener 77-76 at Purdue in the final seconds, the Norse endured a rude chapter in their second season playing Division I basketball. And that was just the first half.
They finished 21 of 64 from the field (32.8 percent) including 9 of 35 from beyond the arc.
"I may be crazy to say this, but when we had two or three wide-open layups in the first couple of minutes and didn't make them, I thought that relaxed Kentucky a little bit," NKU coach Dave Bezold said of his team's shooting.
"When you don't make those shots against tremendous teams when you are outsized and really out-talented, it's really difficult to control tempo and it really allows those guys to be relaxed when they shoot the basketball. ... I thought that was the difference in the game."

"I highly recommend this comfortable little house. It is beautifully decorated, very clean and the kitchen is well-equipped; it's a real chef's delight! We have stayed here twice. It is very quiet on this cul-de-sac. If you need a walk Pender Hill is at the bottom of the road and Daniel's Point is just a block away. The back porch looks onto a peaceful cedar grove. Lovely to sit there at the end of a hot day. The owner is helpful and efficient. She has thought of everything you could possibly need during your stay."Guest: Janet C.

"Magical Private Lakefront Getaway! This immaculate home is large enough to comfortably accommodate three or four families, and your beloved pet! Both kitchens are amazingly well stocked, the beds are super comfortable, and there is an excellent supply of bath and swim towels. Game boards, ping pong table, kayaks, sup boards, a floating island, and a boat house roof top to jump off of in to the warm lake, will keep everyone entertained! Great hiking trails and dirt bike/mountain biking trails are just out the front door. We had a rental boat delivered to the dock to enjoy water-sports on the gorgeous pristine lake. Enjoy meals on the huge deck overlooking the lake or take a short drive in to town to great restaurants. The Property Manager, Shelley, was fabulous at helping plan our stay and the Owner, Sherry, greeted us upon check in and check out to ensure everything was to our understanding and satisfaction. It is a five star accommodation and summer holiday experience! The kids keep asking when we can go back! We will be sure to return next summer : )"Guest: nikki Date of Stay: July 2015 Review Submitted: July 22, 2015View listing
"WOW is what comes to mind when we think of Jack and Lesley's place in Whistler. Our family of 4 (2 adults 2 kids) along with my mother in law had such a great time. The 2 bedroom + loft was a perfect set up for our summer getaway. We loved staying on quiet Creekside and was pleasantly surprised by the home - the kitchen is well equipped, organized and clean. The washrooms were clean and updated. The beds were comfy and the decor made it feel like home. We appreciated the Netflix and the wifi as well. The location is conveniently located close to a grocery store and restaurants are just steps away. We also really enjoyed the pool area which was well maintained and clean. The communication with Jack was also fabulous - thank you for the heads up on the Ironman weekend traffic! Overall we are really glad to have found this place and would not hesitate to stay at Calhoun's again, thank you for sharing your Whistler home with us Lesley and Jack!"Guest: Josephine L.

I'm studying master of clinical pharmacy so I'm under lots of stress manifested by dyepnea, irritation& agitation so To relief the signs and symptoms I decide to choose non-pharmacological intervention "botanical product" by infusing the mixture of valerian & Borage and drink it every night.
My stress level has been reduced well
Thanks God for all the given bounties
Borage/starflower (Borago Officinalis)
Borage/Starflower Benefits
Borage also known as Starflower is a beautiful flowering plant that grows in the wild in the Mediterranean. It is cultivated and used widely throughout Europe for its healing properties and for a nice addition to a salad. Borage is also cultivated in the US, where it is more popular as an herbal supplement rather than a food product. The leaves are robust and have medicinal properties and the topper of the plant is a striking blue star shaped flower hence the name. The flowers are edible as well and are often found candied for cake decorations or made into sweet syrups. In Italy it is served as a side dish much like a serving of vegetables.
Borage is from the Boraginaceae family and has the proper name of Borago officinalis. Borage is also known as the Bee plant and Bee Bread because the blue purplish star shaped flower attracts bees all summer long. Throughout history Borage has been used to treat a multitude of ailments and to improve overall health. The Romans would mix Borage tea and wine prior to combat, most likely to fortify themselves for the battle.
There are multiple health benefits one can get from taking borage as a herbal supplement. One of the most important nutrients in borage is essential fatty acids, something our body needs for good health. Essential fatty acids must be ingested from diet. An essential fatty acid deficiency can directly affect mood, internal inflammation and various cellular functions. In order for metabolic processes such as cardiovascular functions to work properly, they depend on the proper levels of essential fatty acids in the body. EFA's also improve hair and nail growth and appearance. Specifically, Borage has very high levels of GLA, gamma linolenic acid, an important essential fatty acid. Borage is often used to boost GLA deficiencies in children as well to ensure proper growth.
Borage is also packed with other healthy nutrients that are great for the body. Borage is a good herbal supplement for women because it contains high levels of calcium and iron, nutrients many women are deficient in. Potassium, Zinc, B and C Vitamins, and beta carotene are packed into the Borage plant making it very nutritional.
The adrenal glands in our body work very hard all day to prepare our body for fight or flight situations, constantly releasing adrenalin into the body. Adrenal fatigue can occur when the body is overstressed. Borage is used to restore the adrenal glands to their natural balance, which in turn creates a calmer body and mind.
Borage is well known for its soothing qualities and has been used to treat nervous conditions. Its natural sedative effects have been used for lifting the spirits and softening the nervous edge some people experience. Borage works well to ease the depression and mood swings often associated with menopause and menstrual cycles as well and is a nice alternative to traditional prescription medications.
There are many current ongoing studies involving the health benefits of Borage. Borage is currently being researched as a possible treatment for rheumatoid arthritis because of it's anti inflammatory properties. Because of research like this, Borage is now known to reduce itch and dryness associated with certain skin disorders such as eczema and dermatitis.
Borage can be found in a caplet form, or as a liquid extract of the plant. Borage oil is distilled from the seeds of the plant and used topically or taken internally. It is not recommended to be taken long term internally due to the concentration of alkaloids in Borage that can damage the liver. A typical dose of the caplet or extract form is one to two grams per day. The dried leaves can be brewed into a tea, which has been said to have a refreshing cucumber like flavor.
Borage/Starflower Herb Notes / Side Effects
It is not recommended that Borage be taken long term internally because of the concentration of alkaloids in Borage that can damage the liver. Do not take Borage if you are taking anti-coagulants without discussing it with your doctor first. Nausea, cramping, bloating and headache are side effects that Borage can cause, although they are relatively mild.
Has Borage/Starflower Worked For You?

I'm studying master of clinical pharmacy so I'm under lots of stress manifested by dyepnea, irritation& agitation so To relief the signs and symptoms I decide to choose non-pharmacological intervention "botanical product" by infusing the mixture of valerian & Borage and drink it every night.
It certainly worked for me perfectly well. I have been experiencing a lot of stress and anxiety during the first year of pharmacy school, and taking borage(its leaves in hot water) always helped me maintaining an overall balance on my nervous system(reduce anxiety) and my cardiovascular system(reducing heart beat when it is too high). This is what I have learned from my grandmother and because I was sure about its effect on nervous system and cardiovascular system, I thought I got an idea to research on it for a possible future drug! but I saw so many researches has been already done on borage, which I am happy about.
borage helps strawberries thrive. plant them among your strawberrie plant..
I love Borage it's helping my hair grow back in . I have a very sensitive scalp. I brought I thought was real olive oil from the supermarket. However the oil olive was not real. Real olive oil comes in a dark glass bottle n should be certified olive oil.
Anyway the olive oil took my hair out ): I started using borage and what I notice is the borage open out the pores in my scalp to received more oxygen . My hair is getting thicker. I found out borage is a DHT Blocker as well.
Borage is The Mane Choice for me.

I have worked a bit on ANTLR.
I have some queries:
1.Is debugging possible on a intermediate code.
2.We are planning to define our own scripting language
like say we write a test case TC01 and we use the same in another testcase TC01 like we do imports in java or using in C#.
How does ANLTR handle this? Does it compile once and then leaves it or it compiles the user libraries everytime it finds one.
