See highlights from 2014's Haute Couture fashion week.Erin Cunningham01.22.14 7:25 PM ETMiguel Medina/AFP/Getty The House of Schiaparelli was revived, Karl Lagerfeld sent models down the runway in jogging sneakers at Chanel, and Versace channeled Grace Jones's iconic hoods. See highlights from 2014's Haute Couture fashion week. Miguel Medina/AFP/GettyValentinoValentino's "fantastic journey," as creative directors Maria Grazia Chirui and Pierpaolo Piccioli described it, was light and airy, with nature inspiring the majority of the collection's pieces. The scene was painted with gardens of flowers and clouds, while dresses printed with jungle animals and a cape adorned with butterflies were sent down the runway. Theater and opera were the inspirations for the Valentino collection, which can be seen in the opening dress, a cream, organza gown printed with black musical notes, or the black feather looks scattered throughout the collection. "The woman is always at the center," the duo wrote in the show notes. "She is a multi-faceted and elusive figure dressed in ever-changing guises." And though the palette failed to drift from natural, neutral hues, the mix of oversized coats and pajama-style sets with silk shifts and tutu-esque dresses surely hit many nails on the head. Miguel Medina/AFP/GettyJean-Paul GaultierThe King of Burlesque once again failed to disappoint, producing a spectacle rather than a runway show. Close friend and muse Dita Von Teese stole the show in a turquoise butterfly number (which the collection was inspired by) and lace knee-high stockings, the perfect finale to a completely Burlesque-inspired collection. Voluminous sleeves and collars, sexy cuts, and elaborate headpieces dominated the collection. Keeping with the butterfly motif, gowns featured subtle wings crafted from a variety of materials, while some of the millinery-style hats were clad with the little creatures. "I was thinking about colours and fabrics and what they could be and then I kept seeing the shape (of the butterfly) and saw that it could be a body—everything was like a dress," Gaultier said. "There's a little sexiness in it, but elegant and chic and very, very couture." Francois Guillot/AFP/GettyElie SaabGlamorous and ethereal are two ways to describes Elie Saab's collection named "The Promise of Spring." The designer's focus was fixated on the ballgown, and rightfully so, since his front row was filled with Middle Eastern princesses. The clothing produced a romantic aura as full tulle skirts, fully-embroidered lace dresses, and midi-length cocktail dresses were shown in simple pastels or adorned with floral appliques. Show-stopping numbers included a billowing gown on Maria Borges, which ombred from black to white and was printed with pastel flowers, and the final look, a tan wedding dress featuring white flower embroidery and a veil that trailed the floor. But Saab's collection wasn't just very couture with its ballgowns. It was the ultimate in red-carpet glamour, sure to soon be making award season appearances. Miguel Medina/AFP/GettyMaison Martin MargielaThe masks are back! Maison Martin Margiela concentrated on fabrics for its haute couture collection, with a nod to interiors and craftsmanship. Clothing edges were left undone, and pieces were created from "a treasure trove of vintage fabrics," WWD writes, "almost all of which were collector's items, mostly sourced from private estates." Margiela showed a little bit of everything: t-shirt shifts, strapless a-line dresses, and pantsuits whose blazers were replaced with bathrobe-style jackets. Every piece was decorated in some variety of vibrant pattern, whether it was textiles designed by Frank Lloyd Wright or the image of Paul Gauguin's "La Femme du Roi," which appeared on an oversized coat. It is bedazzled masks, however, that have become the house's staple. This season saw black masks decorated with silver-and-gold embroidered eyes, some layered underneath Egyptian Pharoh-inspired beaded headpieces. Pascal Le Segretain/GettyArmani PrivéGiorgio Armani brought his "One Night Only" spectacle to Paris's Palais de Tokyo, delivering a collection that was nothing less than, well, spectacular. The nearly all navy blue collection hit all the marks from casual to couture, showing everything from pantsuits with flowing trousers to ballgowns adorned with crystals and layers of lace. "This is a woman who moves around the world and picks ideas from the beautiful things she sees, what moves her emotionally" Armani told WWD of the collection he aptly titled "Nomade." The clothing especially honored Armani's traditional aesthetic and strong background in menswear, while the accessories added a bit more flare, with models clad in gypsy-like headscarves, dangling jeweled earrings, and even low heels. AFP/GettyVionnetWhen Hussein Chalayan was tapped to create Vionnet's demi-couture line (priced less than Haute Couture) in early January, expectations were set high for the designer to maintain Madeleine Vionnet's original aesthetic. Yet instead of revisiting the house's original idea, Chalayan brought Madeleine Vionnet's line into the 21st century with a modern take on a classic look. Gowns of organza and silk floated down the runway in soft colors: pinks, greys, and yellows; some flaunted a slight geometric pattern in black and white, while others featured subtle embellishments. The lines of the dresses were simple and flowing, with architectural sleeves present in more than half of the collection. Bertrand Rindoff Petroff/GettyChanelLeave it to Karl Lagerfeld to connect running sneakers, fanny packs, and knee-pads with haute couture. Models danced down the revolving set at the Grand Palais to a 12-piece orchestra. The collection, dubbed "The Cambon Club," radiated the nightclub, discotheque scene with glittery ensembles—some loose and swaying like the gilded column gowns and loose trousers, while other dresses were tightened at the waist with a corset, layered underneath cropped jackets or tops. The athletic aura, however, is what had most show goers talking, as most could not imagine pairing a $10,000 dress with simple jogging sneakers. Yet Chanel's kicks were, of course, nothing regular, and were hand-crafted by the brand's couture shoemaker, Massaro. Cara Delevingne closed the show as a bride, holding hands with Lagerfeld's godson, and runway frequenter, Hudson Kroenig, who was dressed as a ring bearer, and Lagerfeld himself. Alhough the designer proclaimed, "For myself, I don't do sneakers," Chanel's joggers are really just what the fashion set has been missing. Benoit Tessier/ReutersGiambattista ValliGiambattista Valli described the woman of his collection as one with a "spontaneous attitude." Short frocks dominated Valli's couture show, delivering a sense of youthfulness and modernity with every brightly-colored, semi-printed mini-dress that paraded down the runway. The designer focused on structure around the bodice and hips, accenting with mettalics and ivory brocade. Although Valli kept his typically formal aesthetic, the notion of a "party girl" motif was definitely in full-force, especially in the pink silk mini with red and hot pink detailing worn on Cindy Bruna, or the floral appliqué crop top-dress-combination seen on Joan Smalls. Catwalking/GettyChristian DiorThe scene at Dior was flirty, feminine, and a breath of fresh air, as Raf Simons delivered his latest collection for the label. "I was thinking of taking the theatrical out and taking it more into reality," Simons told WWD. "As a designer, you have a responsibility to do both—to trigger her fantasy with the show, but give her the reality as well." And that's just what he did for his fourth haute couture collection, showing soft sheaths and shapes in muted hues: white, cream, black, and navy. The emphasis on the gown also turned towards trousers and jumpsuits, although the idea of the party dress was still ever present and adorned in layers of lace, silk, and embroidery. Most notably, Dior kept things simple on the feet, showing an array of patterned watershoe-esque flats. Pascal Le Segretain/GettySchiaparelliElsa Schiaparelli's legacy came back to life on Monday, when designer Marco Zanini created the first collection for the French label since 1954. Although sixty years have passed since Schiaparelli herself presented a runway show, Zanini channeled her vision and aesthetic—bright colors and fabrics—while still maintaining an element of elegance. The collection, shown at Place Vendôme, was playful and feminine, presenting everything from a blue and gold body-suit to a simple t-shirt dress. The accessories and beauty elements added the unique touch that Schiaparelli herself was known for (think her 1937 Lobster dress or her collaboration with Salvador Dali), showing quirky headpieces, an excess of ruffles and embroidery, and even a Grace Coddington-inspired hairstyle. Gonzalo Fuentes/ReutersAtelier VersaceDonatella Versace's collection for Atelier Versace was very Donatella with slinky cocktail attire, plunging necklines, and stick-straight hair. Lady Gaga, the latest face of the brand, arrived at the Paris Chamber of Commerce and Industry (the show's location), clad in a black hooded gown that nodded at some of the runway's most eclectic pieces. Vibrant purple fur, neon orange silky dresses, and hip-hugging jumpsuits paraded down the runway to Gaga's tunes--"Applause," "Born This Way," and "Donatella," the singer's musical homage to the designer. The standout piece of the Versace show, however, was the brand's use of hooded models, which channeled a 1980s Grace Jones. "She left a sign as a strong, powerful woman, a power goddess," Versace said of Jones. "I wanted to embody that."

July 4, 1967 w. v. DEANE SURGICAL PINCH VALVE Filed Sept. 28, 1964 United States Patent O 3,329,391 SURGICAL PINCH VALVE William V. Deane, 105 S. Commonwealth, Apt. 9, Los Angeles, Calif. 90004 Filed Sept. 28, 1964, Ser. No. 399,434 6 Claims. (Cl. 251-7) This invention relates in general to miniature valves for administering the ilow of medical fluids from a sterile reservoir to the patient, and more particularly the invention is directed to inexpensive plastic valves which may be readily reused or discarded after a single use.
A great number of daily utilizations of fluid handling of medicinal agents which must be achieved in the most sterile manner possible are included in the modern medical procedures in most hospitals. Typical examples of this type of iiuid handling are intravenous feedings and blood transfusions wherein the medical fluid is contained in a flask and administered through tubing and a flow control valve to a means such as a hypodermic needle which may be inserted into the vascular system of the patient. A primary object of the present invention is to provide such a valve which is improved in certain respects, hereinafter set forth, as compared with those valves heretofore available for these and other utilizations of like character.
In the past it has typically been the practice to use valves made of heat sterilizable material such as brass, stainless steel, or pyrex glass, Such valves can be repeatedly sterilized and reused. However, they are initially expensive and their resterilization and sterile storage for future use constitutes additional responsibility for hospital personnel who are normally already overburdened with other duties. Furthermore, the cleaning and resterilization of valves which have lbeen used is inherently diflicult and at best imperfect because of the small scale rotary joints and ports and channels or passageways in which dried residue of the iluid state substance may remain undetected. Such residue causes a valve to be difcult to operate and more importantly, may cause serious pyrogenic reactions in the patient.
An additional disadvantage inherent in metallic valves is their chemical activity which may be manifest either in deleterious reaction with the fluid medicinal agents or with the caustic cleansing solutions used in preparing them for reuse.
One general prior art attempt to provide a simple low cost solution to the sterilization problem is the pinched tube type valve wherein a spring clip or more elaborate clamp is applied over a flexible tube. Although such valve arrangements may be linexpensive and may be readily resterilized since the clip mechanism need not directly contact the medical fluid, the flexible tulbing being discarded, they are less than totally satisfactory in their forms heretofore known Kbecause of their lack of positive action either in opening a previously pinched tube or in closing a previously open one. In addition, their action is not usually reliably variable between the limits of full flow and shut-olf. Furthermore, it may be seen that generally their action and reliablity depends upon the relationship between the strength of the spring and the resiliency of the flexible tube which relationship, in throw-away materials, is not consistently dependable.
Other attempts in the prior art to provide plastic valves inexpensive enough to be discarded after single or short use have typically resulted in apparatus which is either unwieldy and unreliable as regards leakage or flow control or is so complex as to be not adequately inexpensive for practical throw-away use.
Accordingly, it is another object to provide a surgical or medical fluid valve which is not subject to these and other disadvantages to the prior art.
It is another object to provide such a medical or surgical valve which is exceedingly inexpensive to manulfacture, with repeatability and reliability.
It is another object to provide such a valve which is chemically substantially inert, easily factory sterilized, non-breakable, light weight, and exceedingly compact.
It is another object to provide such a valve which does not require sealing the gaskets or O-rings or other sealing means and which is adaptable to slip over standard flexible tubing.
It is another object to provide such a valve which provides positive control of the ow therethrough in discrete steps of magnitude between full ow and shut-olf.
Briey, these and other objects are achieved in one example of the invention in which a small plastic valve body member is provided with a Ibore for slidingly receiving a length flexible tubing therethrough transversely to the bore. A body member is formed to include a slot which communicates with the bore and which has serrated sides. An elongated valve sliding member one end of which engages the flexible tube within the bore is disposed within the slot and is provided with serrated sides which cooperatively engage with the serrated side surfaces of the slot to secure, longitudinally, the elongated valve sliding member within the slot.
The composition of one or both the valve sliding and body members is of a deformable or semi-rigid plastic substance whereby with longitudinal force applied to the valve sliding member, it may move in discrete but small steps along the length of the slot toward or away from the bore within which the tubing is disposed. In a presently preferred example of the invention, a thumb engaging lateral extension is provided on one side of the sliding member which extends outside of the body member and against which such longitudinal force may be applied as by the thumb or other digit of the user. A snap-on cover for the body member may be provided for retaining the sliding member within the slot of the body member.
Thus by inserting the flexible tube through the bore, fluid flow through the tubing may be controlled in positive discrete steps by deforming the tubing within the bore through force applied transversely thereto through the end of the valve sliding member.
The resulting valve assembly may be exceedingly cornpact and inexpensive to manufacture and may be blow molded as a three piece unit, sterilized, packaged, and stored until desired for use. When the valve is to be used, it may be unpa-ckaged and set together to form, in cooperation with a length of flexible tubing, a complete medical fluid or a surgical valve system.
Further details of these and other novel features and their operation as well as additional objects and advantages of the invention will become apparent and be best understood from a consideration of the followng description taken in connection with the accompanying drawing which is presented by way of an illustrative example only and in which:
FIG. l is a perspective view of an example of a surgical valve constructed in accordance with the principles of the present invention;
FIG. 2 is la sectional view of a structure of FIG. 1 taken along the lines 2-2 thereof;
FIG. 3 is a frontal elevational view of the structure of the previous iigures with the cover plate removed; and
FIG. 4 is a perspective view of an internal element of the assembly illustrated in the previous-figures.
With specific reference now to the figures in detail, it is stressed that the particulars shown are by way of example and for purposes of illustrative -discussion only and are presented in the cause of providing what is believed to be the most useful and readily understood description of the principles and structural concepts of the invention. In this regard, no attempt is made to show structural details of the apparatus in more detail than is necessary for a fundamental understanding of the invention, the description, taken ywith the drawing, making apparent to those skilled particularly in the art of plastics manufacture how the several forms of the invention may 'be embodied in practice, Specifically, the detailed showing is not to be taken as a limitation upon the scope of the invention which is ydened by the appended claims forming, along with the drawing, a part of the specification.
The example of the surgical valve illustrated in FIG. 1 includes a body member 12 having a flexible tube receiving lbore 14 formed therethrough Ialong an axis parallel to the `back surface 116 and the top and bottom surfaces 18, respectively of the body member 12.
The body member 12 is also formed with a channel 22 (see the subsequent figures) which is also disposed parallel to the #back surface 16 but perpendicular to and in communication with the bore 14. A valve sliding member 24 having a laterally extending thumb engaging portion 26 is -disposed slidingly within the channel 22 with the thumb engaging portion 26 protruding out of the body member 12 through a slot 28 formed through a cover plate 30 which grips the lbody member 12 and retains the valve sliding member 24 in a manner s-hown more clearly in the subsequent figures.
Referring to FIG. 2 the representation is a longitudinal sectional view taken through the channel 22 in a manner to show the valve sliding member 24 in elevation. Disposed snugly within the bore 14 is shown, in this view, :a length of flexible surgical tubing 30 the outer diamete-r of which is approximately equa-l to the diameter of the ibore 14. The communication of the channel 22 with the bore 14 is shown in this view as permitting the pinch closure engaging relationship of the round bottom portion 32 of the valve sliding member 24 with the surgical tubing 30. Thusly, by tnanslating force applied 4by the thumb of the user through the thumb engaging portion 26, the valve sli-ding mem'ber 24 may fbe moved :longitudinally along the channel 22 in a manner to open or close the tubing 30 therebyv to control the flow of medicinal fluids therethrough.
The valve sliding member 24 is held in discrete, selected positions by engagement of a series of longitudinal displacement control serrations 34 which engage rnatingly with similar serrations formed in the body member 12 along the sides of the channel 22. Individual ones of the serrations are oriented perpendicularly with respect to the direction of longitudinal freedom of displacement of the valve sliding member 24 within the channel 22. In this example both ythe valve members are formed of a semirigid, somewhat deformable plastic material so as to permit the indicator gripping relationship between the sliding and body members of the valve. The lateral amplitude of the serrations 34, 36 is readily determined by experimentation with the particular plastic materials chosen and with regard to the diameter and wall rigidity of the length of surgical tubing 30 `to determine an optimum gripping effect whereby the valve sliding member may be readily moved longitudinally Within its channel by force exerted by the thumb of the user while at the same time securely holding the tubing engaging round bottom portion 32 of the valve sliding member 24 in its desired pinch closure relationship with the tubing 30. For example, for holding and controlling the flow of intravenous nourishment through typical exible plastic tubing, the .amplitude of the serrations was chosen to be several thousandths of 1an inch and readily held the tubing in any desired degree of closure from full ilow to total shut-olf in any one of a very large number of discrete positions, providing in effect, a substantially infinite control between the indicated limits.
The cover plate member 29 is shown in FIG. 2 as bein juxtaposed over the face portion 38 of the valve body member 12 in a manner to retain the valve sliding member 24 within the channel 22 of the body member 12; the slot 28 being provided as indicated above to provide extension therethrough of the -thumb engaging portion 26 of the valve sliding member 24 whereby the thumb or other digit of the user may exert a force with respect t-o the remainder of the valve assembly for controlling the longitudinal displacement of the valve sliding member therewithin. As shown also in FIG. 3 the sides and top and bottom of the body member 12 are provided with a shoulder 40 which extends above the perimeter of the body member 12 contiguously to its face portion 38. The continuation of the edge surfaces of the sides and top and bottom of the body member toward the face portion 38 from the shoulder 40 is provided with a lip engaging retaining channel 42 which in this example eX- tends above the entire periphery of the ibody member 12 contiguously to the face portion 38. Similarly, the periphery of the cover plate member 29 is formed with a retaining lip 44 which includes a peripheral retaining land 46 which, in a snap-on relationship, engages with the retaining channel 42.
It should be noted that the View of FIG. 3 is of the valve `assembly with the cover plate member 29 removed and with the length of surgical tubing 30 inserted therethrough in a partially pinched closure relationship with the round bottom tubing engaging portion 26 of the valve sliding member 24. The holding serrati-ons, shown somewhat exaggerated in amplitude, 34 of the valve sliding member 24 and the mating serrations 36 on the sides of the channel 22 are represented in frontal elevation in the view of FIG. 3.
Referring to FIG. 4 the valve sliding member 24 is illustrated removed from the channel 22 of the valve body member 12 to show more clearly its side serrations 34, its thumb engaging portion 26, and its flexible tube engaging round bottom portion 32. It should be noted that the serrations need not necessarily be formed on the surfaces as shown in this example of the invention. They may, for example, be formed on only one surface which may be one of the sides as shown or on the front or back of the valve sliding member 24. It is contemplated however, that the individual serrations shall be oriented substantially perpendicularly to the direction of the freedom of movement of the valve sliding member 24 toward or away from the pinch closure engaging relation with the flexible surgical tubing within the bore 14.
In typical manufacture of the surgical valve 10 it has been found to be particularly expedient and otherwise advantageous to blow mold the three members of the valve assembly, not including the length of exible tubing, in one interconnected molding. The portions may then be broken away, snapped together, and then placed along the length of flexible medical tubing 14. In any point of time in their manufacture, assembly, or storage for use, the valve or its components may when desired, be sterilized `as for example by radiation within their package. Although the units are marketed for a few cents each, they may, when desired, be exceedingly readily cleaned, resterilized and reused since the medical fluid never comes in contact with the valve materials themselves. There has thus been disclosed and described, an example of a medical-surgical valve exhibiting the advantages and achieving the objects set forth hereinabove.

To Anyone Seeking An Attorney:
This letter is a testimonial for attorney Ken Chyten from two very grateful clients. We would like to say at the start that we consider ourselves fortunate to have had Ken Chyten as our advocate. He is an exemplary attorney, and we give him our highest and most unqualified recommendation.
We are a married couple who were involved in very complex and highly contentious business litigation. From the outset, and during the entire course of the lawsuit, Ken showed a keen grasp of the legal issues. He kept us informed of everything as it transpired, and was accessible whenever we needed him, including evenings and weekends. Ken demonstrated an incomparable work ethic, and a phenomenal commitment to thorough preparation.
Ken was opposed in our case by a very large and prominent law firm. Ken responded with tenacity and brilliance, while always being composed, adroit, and confident. Ken's litigation strategy was ingenious, and his implementation of that strategy was unparalleled. If Ken Chyten is your attorney, you can rest assured that if your case goes to trial, you will be going to trial with a thoroughly prepared advocate who will have thought through every aspect of the case, and who will have covered every last detail.
Ken's billing is transparent and fair. Indeed, he has been generous and considerate in the extreme. He is a man of honor and integrity; a true man of his word. We have come through the crucible of litigation considering Ken to be not only a supremely competent, razor-sharp attorney, but a good friend as well.
Posted by anonymous
Ken Chyten recently handled a breach of contract law suit for me. Unlike most other firms, Ken does not have big overhead costs that you get billed for. He handles the cases from start to finish with no duplicate charges for a paralegal, admin assistant, associate attorney etc. In my case, I was able to work in collaboration with Ken. He listened to and reviewed my concerns, my arguments and evidence and then negotiated with the counter-party to achieve a favorable outcome after a long and protracted battle by the counter-party. I was very pleased with the outcome and am confident that a similar result would have cost me much more at most other large or small law firms. Ken knows his stuff and is diligent and hard working for his clients. I highly recommend him in the areas he practices.
Posted by Paul
When my litigation law firm in Sydney needed to recover a large sum in California, we did our research and Ken came highly recommended. We were not disappointed. Ken undertook our matter with zeal and thoroughness. He saw off a number of large law firms who represented our opponents and easily outperformed all of the other lawyers involved. Ken's tactics were brilliant, and he was aggressive and tenacious. We achieved a spectacular result that surpassed our expectations and was much quicker than we had hoped. Without doubt Ken is one of the finest lawyers I have ever met. I only wish he was in Australia and I could retain him more often.
I have been a highly successful trial lawyer for 30 years, with extensive experience in many different areas. My primary focus, however, is civil and business litigation.
I have represented hundreds of businesses and individuals in matters ranging from simple contract or business disputes, to matters as complex as patent and antritrust litigation, and everything in between.
No case is too small or simple, or too large or complex. If I choose to take a case, I will give that case my utmost attention and interest regardless of its size or complexity.
There is nothing I value more than my reputation.
I humbly like to think I have attained a high level of respect from my peers and clients, as well as from the judges I have been appearing before for the past 30 years.
As a former clerk for the California Supreme Court, and judge pro tem of the Los Angeles County Superior Court, I have a unique appreciation for what makes a compelling presentation, and winning case.
I was once described by a senior federal district court judge as one of the top three attorneys who had ever practiced before him.
I valued that endorsement, as much as the praise I received from the late Stanley Mosk when I clerked under him on the California Supreme Court, and as much as the honor I had in being an associate editor of the California Law Review while attending the University of California at Berkeley, Boalt Hall Law School.
I am a tough, battle-hardened trial lawyer who has passion for the practice of law.
I am fiercely competitive, and have a have frequently been described by both clients and adversaries as a " "bulldog'.
While I fight hard to win cases, I also consider myself to have good common sense and a modicum of fairness. These skills help me quickly size up a case, and know when to fight, and when to settle.
It is at least as satisfying for me to settle a case fairly, and without large fees, as it is to win after a long and difficult trial. Thus, I will try hard to settle a case, but only on terms I belive are fair to my clients.
While I enjoy the practice of law, and devote whatever time is required to achieve success, I have many other interests as well.
I have two sets of twin boys, all of whom are in elementary school, and a beautiful wife, who in her former life was an excellent family law lawyer. I treasure the time I get to spend with all of them.
I am also an avid sports fan, and would-be athlete. In my younger days, I played a lot of tennis, basketball, and baseball. Nowadays, the most exercise I get is chasing, or being chased, by my four boys.
All in all I consider myself fortunate to have an excellent law practice and a great family.
Clients frequently ask why I don't work for a firm, or hire a bunch of associates, and run a law mill that cranks out the cases and billable hours.
After being an associate at a huge law firm, and a partner in a boutque Westside firm, I have come to realize I am better able to serve my clients by handling the cases myself.
In that manner, I can control both the quality of the work, as well as the billable hours.

Nancy Bornn, Employment and labor Attorney
Relationship: Worked together on matter
I highly endorse this lawyer's work. Ken is a terrific lawyer in all aspects. He is brilliant, tenacious, hardworking and a zealous advocate for his clients. I had the pleasure of working with Ken on two very hard fought, complex civil litigation matters. It was his unflappable tenacity, hardwork and sharp intellect that helped us achieve excellent results for our clients. Ken always conducts himself in accordance with the highest standards and ideals of professionalism and civility. I look forward to having the opportunity to working with him again any time!

I might be going on OK Cupid again, I'm nervous about it.
Is it a good idea to look for matches in an area that you visit every once in a while and MIGHT be moving to in the future? This would be an area, like, hundreds of miles from where you presently live.
We're here to play some Mississippi Delta Blues. We're in a horrible depression, and I gotta admit - we're starting to like it.
It might be useful for gathering information to help you decide if you want to move (to get an idea of the size and breadth of the dating pool compared to where you are now or other possible locations) but I don't see why you would want to start messaging or investing yourself in anybody until you actually moved.
I say this as someone who moved 2500 miles to be with somebody; I was actively against starting a long distance relationship.
I don't think I'm hosting a 2016 collaborative playlist.
i don't think it's a bad idea, but i wouldn't expect everyone to be open to the idea. maybe save that part until you have to bring it up so you can get to know people first. not saying you should lie, just wait to bring it up.
also, i really need to stop getting drunk and writing letters i can't take back
I think you should lettuce be the judge of said letter. Post it up.
Those are amazing.
I am kind of terrified by FindYourFaceMate.

This signifies a rare show of solidarity with Igbos in Lagos.
Recall that the 2015 general elections threatened long standing harmonious relationship between Lagos and Igbos residents in Lagos.

We're older now and way out of school, but sometimes we wonder what our high-school beater could have been had we known more about cars. In the spirit of nostalgia, we are going to hammer this car into an awesome cruiser in one weekend. It's not going to be a high-dollar build.

Marks & Spencer's chief executive, Roger Holmes, faces being forced out by shareholders if trading does not improve in the coming months.
After last week's dreadful sales figures, the focus is on the review by Vittorio Radice, the head of homewares recently given responsibility for clothing.
It is thought he will present his findings in time for the full-year results at the end of May, and shareholders say this will be a critical time for M&S.
One investor said he wanted to see signs of stabilisation by the May update and over the summer. Commenting on Mr Holmes' tenure he added: "The board won't be doing its job if it doesn't see any sign of improvement in the next six to nine months and doesn't take affirmative action."
Another institutional investor said the pressure was now "piling on" Mr Holmes, who took over from Luc Vandevelde in 2002. The investor recently sold out of M&S, concerned by the retailer's weak trading. But he said he would consider buying back if Mr Holmes were replaced.
M&S's new Lifestore outlets have also caused concern. "It is spreading itself too thinly," the former investor said.
M&S may now become a bid target. One shareholder said: "M&S looks more vulnerable to a takeover than Sainsbury's. There is more speculative buying of Sainsbury's shares, but on the numbers I have done, M&S is now more likely."
