- Privacy. This Site is governed by the terms and conditions set out in our privacy policy found at http://www.condenast.com/privacy-policy/#privacypolicy, which is incorporated herein by reference.
- Dispute Resolution.
- 10.1. Agreement to Arbitrate Disputes. Any and all disputes, controversies, demands, counts, claims, or causes of action between you and us (including, but not limited to, disputes related in any way to the interpretation and scope of this clause, the Terms and Privacy Policy, your use of the Site and Programs, and the arbitrability of the dispute) shall exclusively be settled through individual, binding and confidential arbitration. THERE'S NO JUDGE OR JURY IN ARBITRATION, PROCEDURES FOR ARBITRATION ARE SIMPLER AND MORE LIMITED THAN RULES APPLICABLE IN COURT, AND REVIEW BY A COURT IS LIMITED. Arbitration shall be subject to the Federal Arbitration Act and shall be conducted by the American Arbitration Association (AAA) before one commercial arbitrator. The conduct of the arbitration shall be subject to AAA's then-current rules and procedures for commercial arbitration and, if the arbitrator deems it appropriate, the then-current supplementary rules and procedures for consumer-related disputes (collectively, Rules and Procedures). YOU SPECIFICALLY AGREE THAT YOU ARE BOUND TO RESOLVE ALL DISPUTES IN ARBITRATION, AND YOU ACKNOWLEDGE THAT YOU ARE VOLUNTARILY AND KNOWINGLY FORFEITING YOUR RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY AND TO OTHERWISE PROCEED IN A LAWSUIT IN STATE OR FEDERAL COURT. Payment of arbitration costs will be governed by the AAA's fee schedule, unless you are able to show that your portion will be prohibitive as compared to litigation costs, in which case we will pay as much of your arbitration costs as the arbitrator deems necessary to prevent the arbitration from being cost-prohibitive as compared to litigation costs. We also reserve the right, in our sole and exclusive discretion, to assume responsibility for all arbitration costs imposed by the AAA. Each party agrees to pay its own attorneys' fees and expenses unless there is a governing statutory provision or remedy under the governing law that requires the prevailing party to be paid attorneys' fees and expenses. Information on AAA, its Rules and Procedures, and how to start arbitration can be found at http://www.adr.org or by calling 800-778-7879.
- 10.2. Waiver of Class Arbitration: To the fullest extent permissible under applicable law, all disputes shall be resolved by binding confidential arbitration on an individual basis. You expressly agree that no other disputes shall be consolidated or joined with your dispute, whether through class arbitration proceedings or otherwise. You further acknowledge and agree that any arbitrator assigned to a dispute shall not and shall lack the authority to conduct class arbitration or award class-wide relief and that such arbitrator shall only hear your individual dispute. You acknowledge that you are voluntarily and knowingly waiving any right to participate as a representative of any class of claimants pertaining to any dispute subject to arbitration, such that you shall not be entitled to arbitrate any dispute as a representative plaintiff or claimant, class representative, class member, or private attorney general.
- 10.3. Governing Law: These Terms and all disputes between the parties shall be governed in all respects by the laws of the State of Connecticut, consistent with the Federal Arbitration Act, as they apply to agreements entered into and to be performed entirely within Connecticut between Connecticut residents, without regard to any conflict-of-law provisions. Further, in any arbitration, both parties agree the arbitrator shall honor claims of privilege and privacy recognized under Connecticut law.
- 10.4. Enforcement of Arbitration Award: The arbitrator's award shall be final and binding on all parties and may be entered as a judgment in any court of competent jurisdiction.
- 10.5. Severability: If any portion of this Dispute Resolution section (with the exception of the Waiver of Class Arbitration subsection) is deemed invalid or unenforceable by any arbitrator or court of competent jurisdiction, the invalid or unenforceable portion shall be severed and removed from the Terms, and the remaining portions (including the Agreement to Arbitrate Disputes subsection) shall remain binding on you and us. If any arbitrator deems the Waiver of Class Arbitration subsection to be invalid or unenforceable, then the entire Agreement to Arbitrate Disputes subsection shall be null and void. Under such circumstances, you expressly acknowledge and agree that the Governing Law and Jurisdiction subsections apply to any disputes between you and us, and both parties consent to exclusive jurisdiction and venue in such courts.
- 10.6. Jurisdiction: If, in any dispute, this subsection is determined to be invalid or unenforceable, notwithstanding the Severability subsection above, or null and void by any arbitrator or court of competent jurisdiction, or if the dispute seeks injunctive remedies arising from a violation of your or our intellectual property rights, the dispute shall be resolved by a state or federal court located in Hartford County, Connecticut, USA. The parties agree to submit to the personal jurisdiction of such Connecticut state or federal courts for the purposes of litigating any such dispute. This subsection does not apply disputes made in small claims court.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, to the extent the dispute arises from a violation of your or our intellectual property rights in any manner, both parties agree that the non-infringing party may seek injunctive remedies (or an equivalent type of urgent legal relief) in a state or federal court consistent with the subsections below, and both parties consent to exclusive jurisdiction and venue in such courts. Additionally, you or we may take the dispute to small claims court if the dispute qualifies for small claims court.
- Miscellaneous. These Terms and policies incorporated herein are the entire agreement between you and us and supersede any and all prior or contemporaneous agreements between you and us relating to your use of the Site or the Programs. If any part of these Terms is determined to be invalid or unenforceable, it will not impact any other provision of these Terms, all of which will remain in full force and effect. Our failure to partially or fully exercise any rights, shall not prevent our subsequent exercise of such right or be deemed a waiver by us of any subsequent breach by you of the same or any other term of these Terms. Our rights and remedies under these Terms and any other applicable agreement between you and us shall be cumulative, and the exercise of any such right or remedy shall not limit our right to exercise any other right or remedy. You agree that, except as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement, there shall be no third-party beneficiaries to this Agreement.

Residents of the Fulton area will have an opportunity to learn how to obtain a master of business administration (MBA)—without quitting work—when representatives of William Woods University's Graduate & Adult Studies (G&AS) program conduct a local orientation Monday, March 4.
The MBA program is a 36-credit-hour program, designed to further prepare the working professional for a career in general management. Classroom activities of the entire curriculum are designed to provide the proper blend of theory and practice, thereby making for a true applications-oriented program. What is learned in class one evening may literally be applied to the real workforce the next day.
"I selected William Woods University because the instructors are leaders in their profession and are able to share their knowledge and expertise with the students," Kathy Pabst, an MBA student in Jefferson City, said.
"This program incorporates the principles of the textbooks and applies them to work situations. With other working adults as students, there is a great deal of respect for opinions and experiences," Pabst added.
Employing a model of accelerated learning developed especially for the convenience of the working adult, these educational programs are structured so that a degree can be completed in as few as 18 months.
To guarantee the graduation of many well-rounded professionals, William Woods offers degree programs that utilize a cohort model, emphasizing learning through student-directed study groups of three to five students.
The word "cohort" describes a group of people who collaborate to reach a common goal. WWU's program utilizes the diversity of the individual members to broaden the learning experience of the class as a whole as they work together. The school recognizes that learning can and does take place outside of the classroom and that theoretical knowledge is only useful if applied to real-life on-the-job situations.
To better fit the schedules of the ever-busy G&AS students, classes meet once a week in the evening for four hours. Study groups can meet once more to prepare projects and assignments before the upcoming week.
"With the teamwork approach of using study groups and projects within the cohort model, students can draw on a greater pool of ideas, and they have the opportunity to learn quickly that the effectiveness of one person can be greatly enhanced by utilizing the other members of the group," said Betty R. Tutt, associate provost for extended studies.
Because of the nature of programming—focusing effort on one course at a time—75 to 90 percent of all students finish their program successfully. Each course normally runs five to 10 weeks in length.
"William Woods University is a leader when it comes to designing quality programs for nontraditional adult students. Everything we do here at WWU in our Graduate & Adult Studies program is specifically designed to help adults succeed in reaching their goals as efficiently as possible," said Tutt.
Non-traditional students reflect a growing national trend as more full-time working adults realize the value of maintaining a sustained involvement in higher education. Many adult students recognize that they need additional education either to advance in their current positions or to change careers.
William Woods University can bring programs to your business or community. If there is interest, call 1-800-995-3199 to schedule an information meeting to be held on-site or in your community. Or contact WWU by e-mail at firstname.lastname@example.com or by fax at (573) 592-1164.

Jin Se Yeon And Yoon Shi Yoon Reaffirm Their Love With A Sweet Kiss In "Grand Prince"
TV Chosun's "Grand Prince" has shared new stills of Yoon Shi Yoon and Jin Se Yeon sharing a "kiss of promises" in the upcoming episode!
"Grand Prince" is the story of two royal brothers who are willing to do anything to win the love of the same woman. Yoon Shi Yoon plays Lee Hwi, one of the princes embroiled in conflict and Jin Se Yeon plays Sung Ja Hyun, who stands at the center of their affections.
The new stills show Lee Hwi with a bandana tied across his head as he transforms into a storyteller who makes money by telling funny stories. When he sees Sung Ja Hyun, who is looking thinner and worn out, he rushes to her and looks at her with worry and concern. They speak for a brief moment before their lips meet in a sweet kiss.
The production staff stated, "Yoon Shi Yoon and Jin Se Yeon's love story will continue to progress at a fast pace. Their true and deep love story will warm the hearts of viewers."
Why Yoon Shi Yoon is dressed up as a storyteller instead of a prince, and why he asks for forgiveness from Jin Se Yeon will all be revealed in the upcoming episode of "Grand Prince," which will be revealed in the upcoming episode. The drama airs every Saturday and Sunday at 10:50 p.m. KST and is available exclusively on Viki.
Check out the first episode below!

Sai Jyothirmai Racherla of ARROW made an intervention at the 2016 High-Level Political Forum (HLPF) on Sustainable Development, on behalf of the Women's Major Group (WMG) and the Asia Pacific Regional CSO Engagement Mechanism (AP-RCEM). She posed to the panel some critical questions that need to be integrated within the SDGs agenda to ensure no one is left behind and to lift women and young girls out of poverty.
The Agenda 2030 cannot be achieved without a shared commitment to addressing social justice and issues of poverty and its multidimensional characteristics such as hunger, malnutrition, landlessness, gender inequality, their root causes, and sexual and reproductive health and rights together.
We are confronted with a development agenda that does not address structural and systemic barriers which endanger women and girls integrities and challenge bio-diversity and sustainability of environment.
So lifting women and girls out of poverty will need a comprehensive approach. We need to address these deep questions:
How do we ensure equal rights and access to resources and services (including land, water, seeds, forests, housing, education, livelihood, food, and health services, including for sexual and reproductive health and rights for women and girls?
How do we reform of the monetary, financial and trade regimes that perpetuate inequalities, and results in violence and the undermining of women's human rights?
How do we directing the public investment towards sectors in which the poor work (agriculture), areas in which they live (rural and alternative regions), factors of production that they possess (unskilled labour) and outputs which they consume (food)?
How do we enable and legitimise the government control over the flow of finance and international trade?
How do we ensure enhanced public investments in health, including for sexual and reproductive health and rights, education, and other social services; and ensuring universal access to these, regardless of gender, socio-economic status, citizenship, age, ethnicity, caste, geographic location, sexual orientation, gender identity, engagement in sex work, disability, marital status, HIV status, pregnancy status, migration or refugee status, or other status.
How do we ensure regulation and accountability of the private sector, including in services, technology, insurance, health, land, and food.
How do we stop the onslaught of corporate land grabbing and the forced evictions of communities, especially farming communities and indigenous peoples.
How do we repeal laws and policies that criminalise, punish or marginalise specific groups, based on their gender, socio-economic status, age, ethnicity, caste, marital, sexual orientation, gender identity, religious beliefs, engagement in sex work, HIV status, disability, citizenship, migrant, refugee or other status; or erect barriers to services; and adopt and implement measures to counter discriminatory practices and ensure access to justice
Addressing structural and systemic barriers and responding concretely to the questions I just raised will be the way forward to lifting people especially women and girls out of poverty.
Thank you.

Abbott pledges 'real money' for working parents
Opposition Leader Tony Abbott says he will introduce a six-month paid parental leave scheme if the Coalition wins the next election.
Mr Abbott says the Coalition will offer six months' pay for parents at their current salary, up to a ceiling of $150,000, rather than the Government's scheme of 18 weeks paid at the minimum wage.
The plan would be funded by a new levy on larger businesses.
Mr Abbott says the scheme will give families a better deal than the Government is offering.
"It's got to be for six months and it's got to be at people's real salary," he said.
"The beauty of the Coalition's scheme, compared to the Mickey Mouse scheme which the Labor Party has introduced, is that our scheme gives parents - particularly mothers - real time and real money."
Mr Abbott says the Opposition will consult industry groups about its plan.
He has also acknowledged his plan would not be popular with big business, but he said larger businesses had the capacity to pay for the entitlement.
"I don't expect anyone to cheer about having to pay more, but I expect that even people who operate in big business think of themselves as citizens as well as business people," he said.
But Minister for Women Tanya Plibersek says the proposal lacks detail and Mr Abbott has not properly explained how his scheme would be paid for.
"It's still not funded. We have a fully funded and costed scheme that'll start in January next year," she told Sky News.
"It's important to know how this will be paid for.
"Obviously business will be very resistant to a new tax on business. That's why we decided to pay for this scheme out of consolidated revenue."

Thirteenth part?! Did you know that most elevators (and therefore, buildings), do not have a thirteenth floor due to the superstition that the number is unlucky? Do not worry, dear reader. This post is not unlucky, because "in my experience, there's no such thing as luck" (name that quote and win the prize of perpetual awesomeness!).
Ahem. Sorry about the random introductory paragraph. Streams of consciousness should cease to surprise you by now, though, coming from me.
I love my husband with all of my heart. He takes such good care of me. I have learned, however, that no matter how well Chris does at "husbanding," marriage can't fix the hurts in my heart.
I have always harbored insecurities about my self-worth. Specifically, I have trouble believing I am beautiful, and that love is truly unconditional.
Before I even started dating, I expected that having a man utterly committed to me would take care of my issues. All I needed were those dear compliments and that flattering pursuit to let me know that I was worth fighting for -- then everything would be okay.
Here's the catch: for a short time, it was true. I felt okay. The thrill of being chased provided me with an emotional high that made me forget my self-doubts. After the dating "honeymoon period" ended -- a sixth- month period, some say -- I discovered that I was floundering in my insecurities alone...again!
Friends have asked if marriage alleviated my insecurities -- indeed, they have subtly asked if it eradicated them altogether. Marriage gives me a living picture of Christ's love for me, but it only clarifies an understanding I've had nearly all my life. Marriage isn't the cure. Christ is the only cure -- that is a fact that doesn't change, no matter what relationship stage you're in. Don't trust anything else to "fix" things in your heart, even if you're sure that "if you only had ____, you wouldn't deal with ____."
It isn't easy to trust that what Christ promises about his power, healing and goodness is true. However, believe me when I say don't wait for earthly circumstances to change before bringing heart issues to the Lord. He is completely dependable, and he will not turn you away. In fact, he will rejoice to see his child trusting him with the most fragile parts of life.
Conversations from the flames in which our faith "may be proved genuine and may result in praise, glory and honor when Jesus Christ is revealed." (1 Peter 1.6-7)

text: Heterogeneity in strategies for survival and propagation among the cells that constitute a tumour is a driving force behind the evolution of resistance to cancer treatment. The rules mapping the tumour's strategy distribution to the fitness of individual strategies can be represented as an evolutionary game. We develop a game assay to measure this property in co-culures of alectinib-sensitive and alectinibresistant non-small cell lung cancer. The games are not only quantitatively different between different environments, but targeted therapy and cancer associated fibroblasts qualitatively switch the type of game being played from Leader to Deadlock. This provides the first empirical confirmation of a central theoretical postulate of evolutionary game theory in oncology: we can treat not just the player, but also the game. Although we concentrate on measuring games played by cancer cells, the measurement methodology we develop can be used to advance the study of games in other microscopic systems.

Mother hopes prayers will help 'little fighters'
CONJOINED twins Hassan and Hussein Benhaffaf, right, travelled to London yesterday to prepare for their separation surgery which is due to take place early next month.
The twins, pictured right, will spend the next few weeks in London with their parents Angie and Azzedine and the couple's other two children, Malika (4) and two-year-old Iman.
Arrangements are now being finalised for surgery on the three-month-old twins at Great Ormond Street Hospital.
The twins' mother Angie, who is from Togher in Co Cork, and her Algerian-born husband, face a tense wait as their sons are expected to spend 24 hours in theatre.
Leading the surgical team for their separation is Cork-born paediatric surgeon Edward Kiely. Mr Kiely said the survival rate at Great Ormond Street Hospital for planned separations where the children are stable is about 80 per cent, and under these circumstances both twins usually survive and have a good quality of life.
Angie has asked members of the public to pray for her sons, which the couple dubbed "little fighters" as the surgery draws near.

Who doesn't love a bargain? When you have everything to fork out for x6, I certainly do. Whilst out shopping the other day for my two daughters and getting robbed mercilessly, 'Can I just have this?', 'I really need this!', 'What about this?', (walks towards ridiculous unicorn headband that she is three years too old for anyway), I was really extravagant and bought myself this £2 mineral foundation. I was curious to see if it was anything like my Bare Minerals The Original Foundation.
So firstly, the packaging. It's Ok, looks like a lot of the other Primark foundation, seems sturdy enough. It doesn't have the little opening thing that covers the holes that the Bare Minerals one does, so you do have to be very careful you don't spill it everywhere when opening, (definitely keep up high away from curious little hands!).
I applied it with this brush. At first I thought this isn't really a foundation, more of a powder. But then when I looked at the finished face it does look like foundation. Definitely not as glowing as the Bare Minerals, a lot more matte which I probably need anyway. Here's how it looked on my face.
Yes there is a bit of shine in the top photo but bearing in mind England was the hottest place in Europe that day I think it's still impressive.
So the lasting power of this was really good- I will be interested to see how it performs on a more normal sort of day, ie not one of the hottest days ever.
This is definitely worth the money, I was very impressed. Maybe not quite up to Bare Minerals standard but it's a really good substitute. Give it a go!

San Antonio forward Tiago Splitter will be available for Game 2 against the Warriors, Spurs coach Gregg Popovich announced.
The Spurs' starting lineup will remain the same as it looked in Game 1, but Splitter's availability gives them a low-post option they didn't have in the series opener. Usually a starter, Splitter sprained his right ankle in Game 3 of the Spurs' first-round series against the Lakers and has not played since April 26.
Warriors coach Mark Jackson said before Game 1 that if Splitter were to play, it would limit the amount of small ball the team would play. In pregame, he said the Warriors would also field the same starting lineup as Game 1.
Splitter's activation doesn't figure to change that.
"It's basically the same way for us, we'll probably start the same way," Warriors center Andrew Bogut said. "Splitter is a key for them because he moves the ball so well. Gets a lot of easy buckets with Tony and Manu's penetration."
Pending a late change, these will be the starting lineups:
Warriors: Stephen Curry, Klay Thompson, Harrison Barnes, Festus Ezeli, Andrew Bogut.
Spurs: Tony Parker, Danny Green, Kawhi Leonard, Boris Diaw, Tim Duncan.

Picture: Dave Lee Travis - The broadcaster, nicknamed the Hairy Monster, was a stalwart on the BBC's flagship Radio 1 station from the 1960s...
Travis rocker Dougie Payne has written a moving song about his actress wife Kelly MacDonald for the band's new album.
The bassist, who has two children with the Boardwalk Empire star, has penned a track called Moving, which is about the couple's long-distance relationship, and frontman Fran Healy insists the song is a beautiful tribute to MACdonald.
He tells British newspaper the Daily Record, "Dougie wrote the song Moving. It's a very personal song about his life with Kelly.
"It's about them always moving around and coming to the resolution that 'It doesn't matter where we live, so long as I'm with you. I live where you are'. It's an amazing and beautiful statement, there's a real clarity to it."

Back from Mexico: Patchworks
Last time in Merida I saw an interesting patchwork hanging up in a handicrafts shop pieced from different fabrics. This time I saw lots of examples but despite visiting lots of fabric shops saw nothing like the thicker rich fabrics used in these pieces.
All the patchworks photos were taken in shops with permission and I bought something in each as a token "payment".
I only got back to the airport at 8.30 am UK time but this was 2.30am Mexican time after an early awaking the previous day and I can't sleep on planes - I have to be horizontal! So I went to bed when I got home and am now writing this in the early hours. It's good being retired being able to let ones body clock take time to sort itself out.
I think after my absence from blogging while away I've been dropped by the Stash Quilts ring. Hopefully I'll get reinstated. There are more Mexican photos to come.
The sewing machine was in the Franciscan church in Valladolid, a beautiful town. I thought a sort of shrine to the sewing machine albeit old and rusty was very appropriate for a quilter visitor.

You'll then be teleported into your Diploma of Business class, where your Trainer will be waiting for you and the balance of your classmates will join too.
Your Trainer chooses the virtual classroom you'll meet in for each class, hence maybe you'll meet in a lecture theatre or perhaps in a boardroom or even in outer space! You'll have a lot of control about how you can interact in the class too, you can choose who you want to sit next to, ask questions of your trainer, whisper to your classmate sitting next to you, take audio notes or screenshots of content and much more. But learning in a virtual classroom, isn't just like a normal classroom – it's better! In our Diploma of Business, the Trainer won't just talk about the content – they'll show you via teleporting you across the World to varying locations OR using the holoprojector within your class to display large 3D holograms in the middle of the classroom to help bring concepts to life.

Danielle · Married on 06/16/2017
As a makeup artist myself, I knew finding an artist for my wedding day would be a challenge. I had heard of AMA through the makeup artist grapevine and knew that they did excellent work. When I consulted with my photographer, without mentioning AMA, he recommended them as well. It was then that I knew I had to book them. I had my trial with Juliette over a year before my wedding. She is an insanely talented artist and I was so impressed with her work. On my wedding day, she showed up early, worked quickly and efficiently, and made sure I was armed and ready with a fabulous face to get through my 13 hour day. My makeup looked absolutely gorgeous all day and night, and I needed to only touch up my lipstick and dim my sweat-shine with a bit of translucent powder! My pictures and video are beautiful, my skin looks flawless, and I got the exact look that I was going for. I would highly recommend Juliette and AMA for bridal makeup!!!Sent on 07/14/2017

Everyone at the wedding couldn't get over how great the makeup looked. Andrea did my mother and some of the bridesmaids makeup and was incredible as well. I couldn't of been happier with the way it turned out. They are amazing! Will recommend them to EVERYONE!!!!Sent on 06/27/2017

Artist Makeup Academy and Juliette were THE absolute best. There is no other place to go to get all glammed up for your wedding day than AMA. Everyone raved about all the girls makeup and are continuing to talk about what a fantastic job Roxy and Juliette did. Juliette made me feel gorgeous and very special. Not only is she the best at what she does she is a great person who I enjoyed working with.Sent on 05/31/2017

The entire AMA team was absolutely incredible and were one of the highlights of my wedding day! Juliette and her team made myself and bridal party feel beyond beautiful and were so much fun to work with. Not only is their work perfection- everyone is so friendly, accommodating as well as professional. Makeup was one of my major concerns for my big day and after my trial I was able to rest so easy knowing everything would be perfect. Thank you for making my wedding day all I could have imagined!Sent on 06/01/2017

If I could give them 100 stars I would! The AMA team did an amazing job the morning of my wedding! They arrived exactly on time, their level of professionalism exceeded my expectations, and the talent they posses is incredible. All of my bridesmaids looked stunning!!! As for Juliette, she is an absolute doll, anything that should could do to make my day go as planned she did. She went above and beyond to insure everyone was happy especially me as the bride. Words can't truly express my gratitude towards these amazing ladies! From the bottom of my heart, thank you so very much!!Sent on 04/04/2017

all I can say about AMA is AMAZING!!! Juliette was phenomenal she's great at what she does she listens to exactly what you want and does it perfectly. I'm into make up and get my makeup done often but I have to honestly say she's done my makeup better than anyone else. You truly get your money's worth with them.

I have never felt more beautiful than I did on my wedding day....thanks to Juliette and her AMA team! The girls were incredibly professional, arrived early, worked hard to ensure that we stayed on schedule, and made my entire bridal party look amazing! I danced like crazy, hugged and kissed everyone, and my makeup looked just as perfect at the end of the night as it did when Juliette finished. AMA deserves 10 stars! Worth every penny!Sent on 01/13/2017

Juliette and her team did a wonderful job for my December 3rd wedding! They were courteous, professional, and completed all my girls' makeup on time. Not to mention, everyone looked absolutely stunning! My makeup was polished, classic, and lasted all night. I would highly recommend AMA and look forward to using them again in the future :)Sent on 12/06/2016

When I asked my photographer who he recommends for hair and make-up for the day of, he recommended AMA and told me they're the best and most professional. I did my own search, fell in love with their work and by simply looking at their pictures chose Juliette who turned out to be the owner and founder of AMA.Sent on 11/08/2016
To make a long story short, Juliette and her team are the most amazing and yes professional people you can hope to work with on your day of. They did my hair and make-up and my bridal party's too. We were all more than happy and more than satisfied with the result. everybody kept on complimenting us at the wedding, not just me the bride but my girls and my mom too...
In short, if you're planning a wedding and concerned as on who to get, just give them a call and you will be lucky to find a spot with them like I did, cause guess what :D they're already booking for 2018. just sayin...

I am forever grateful for the ladies that got me and my bridal party ready not only was our hair and make up amazing and beautiful but the service was nothing short of great. Not only did I feel great but the service they provided was above and beyond my expectations!Sent on 10/21/2016
Joelle · Married on 09/25/2016
Wow wow wow! That is all I have to say! I knew these girls would not disappoint but they absolutely exceeded my expectations! Not only were they on time and pleasant but they instantly made my bridal party feel comfortable with their warm personalities and professionalism. My two bridesmaids and mother were blown away with their hair and make up. It was so nice to see them all feel so beautiful! As for me (the bride) I would say I might be a little hard to please, but with Jule's creativity and skill I felt like a stunning goddess.Sent on 09/27/2016
That is just the hair and make up part! They then proceeded to help us and the photographer handle my dress with care while capturing photos. Touch ups at the venue really blew myself and family away. Jules took my look from day to night and once again made me gorgeous! The two videos that followed my wedding, that were done by Xio, absolutely proved how thorough these girls really are! They are AMAZING!!! If you are a future bride looking for amazing work and professionalism you would be silly not to hire AMA!
KAITLIN · Married on 09/09/2016
Amazing experience! Everything from the trial, to the booking, to the day of the wedding was absolutely perfect. I couldn't have loved my makeup more, and my entire bridal party was so happy!! The makeup artists were so calm and happy and kept everyone stress-free (and on time!) leading up to the wedding. It was 95 degrees on the day of the wedding, and at 1AM as I was sitting at the afterparty, people were amazed that my makeup looked as perfect as it did when Juliette did it at 12PM. Thank You for everything! You guys are the best and I would recommend to everyone I know!Sent on 09/27/2016
Alexandra · Married on 09/03/2016
AMAZING!! Juliette and her team were on point with the hair and makeup! Prior to the wedding day, they ask to send over references of hair inspiration for the bridesmaids and mother of the bride, mother of groom. I already had my hair and make up trial back in January. (Which I completely changed my idea a week before ;) ) When we arrived to the bridal suite, they had printed out the pictures for the bridesmaids. Juliette did my hair and makeup, I originally thought I wanted a smokey eye, but changed it to a slowly natural look. Juliette did above and beyond that. I wish she could do my make up and hair everyday! All the bridesmaids were 110% satisfied with their hair and makeup and they are very picky when it comes to that department. Juliette's team listened to the type of look they wanted and achieved exactly that. they were all super easy going and if you didn't like something, they changed it on the spot. It was such a great experience. Wish I can do it all over again!Sent on 09/23/2016
Andraya · Married on 08/14/2016
Simply amazing! I fell in love with the pictures I had seen online but once I met Juliette and had my first trial, I knew I had made the best decision possible. I was completely blown away the day of my wedding, all my girls looked flawless and I felt beautiful, everything I wanted to feel like on my wedding day. From day one, Juliette made me feel at ease, she knew exactly what I had envisioned and exceeded my expectations. I would recommend these girls a million times over!! They are the absolute best. Thank you so very much!Sent on 08/31/2016
Andrea · Married on 07/03/2016
I found AMA through our photographer. I used my trial for our engagement pics and my makeup and hair came out so amazing. I'm always worries when I get my hair and makeup done because I've never felt that I was completely happy. Juliette made all those worries go away. I always find that makeup artists cant match my skin tone and she matched me perfectly for the trial and the wedding day. I have very thin hair and thought I needed extensions and she proved me wrong. The AMA team makes sure they're fully prepped and comes with a team of awesome ladies. I had 5 bridesmaids and myself. Juliette solely works on the bride and we had 3 ladies doing makeup and 2 ladies doing hair. We were all on time and everyone's hair and makeup came out so pretty!! I can't thank Juliette and her team enough for the exceptional job that they did!Sent on 07/25/2016

You cannot say you have experienced a true GLAM day until you have worked with AMA. Juliette and her AMA team were professional from the first day I reached out to them with my inquiry. Her and her team are extremely talented and are up on all the latest beauty trends. I had a vision in my head on how I wanted myself and bridesmaids to look and they certainly delivered without fault. Their setup alone was unreal and straight out of a movie set with the lighting and all their supplies and the director chairs. It was impressive and something I will never forget. Our makeup and hair lasted throughout the night due to the amazing products they used on us. They had 13 women to get ready and 2 flower girls and they did it without a sweat. They are worth every dollar - I will never forget them mostly because I will continue to recommend them and use through for all the big events in my life. Thank you AMA!!!!Sent on 02/04/2016

The electronics contract manufacturing service contract is an important component of outsourcing when original equipment manufacturing (OEM) executives are tasked with outsourcing their design or manufacturing. (See, also: Fixed v. variable asset models)
The hardware manufacturing contract service level agreement is the most important document in the relationship between the electronics manufacturing services (EMS) provider and the OEM. Not just an agreement between two parties, the service agreement provides the critical outline of the exchange between the vendor and customer. Sprinkled in are rules of engagement that detail the who, what, where, when and how much.
Formal contracts enable EMS providers to reassign the risk to the customer (OEM). Without a contract, the customer typically is not held liable for its forecast, so all purchasing and other spending made by the EMS provider is at its own risk and comes with limited rewards. The OEM, on the other hand, is interested in mitigating its supply chain exposure and risk.
Well-managed EMS providers put significant internal forethought and discipline into determining the actual and anticipated costs of doing business with a potential OEM client well in advance of signing a contract service agreement.
Additionally, providers will also solicit input from various internal cross-functional groups such as process and test engineering, production, program management and finance. Individuals from these departments often have first-hand knowledge from working with similar technologies or products. This type of planning and input should be used to determine costs and help an EMS better manage its profits and margins.
Understanding EMS contracts
Excess inventory disputes, expert witness reports, rebuttal, testimony
In your search results, you will be able to further target options by choosing services or markets, then selecting Go.
Contrary to what some device manufacturer executives believe, many OEM organizations do not invest enough time or resources when formulating and negotiating their contract service agreements. One likely reason is that they do not understand how a sophisticated EMS business model is run.
Regardless of the technology or marketplace, full-service global contract manufacturing organizations are still sometimes referred to as 'board stuffers.' This mindset needs to change.
When OEMs rush to an outsourcing endpoint against a tightly managed timeline or, more importantly, when they do not have enough internal outsourcing depth and scope, it will best serve them to carefully develop the contract agreement. Every supply chain director knows this, however, too few have the background or the time to execute successfully. Often, an outsourcing contract is typically only as good as the intentions of the parties who formulate it.
The success of the relationship is directly proportional to the amount of time invested and knowledge applied before negotiations begin. The initial stages of contract negotiations and the language of the service agreement are critical to the success of both parties.
Areas in which OEMs fail to emphasize enough during the contract development process include a common understanding of the language relating to the terms and conditions as well as cost reductions and how they will be passed on to the OEM.
Once a contract is signed, it should serve only as a periodic reference. If it is frequently being reviewed to contest terms, the relationship is likely on a slippery slope, and lawyers may soon be involved. This is because one or both parties failed to perform due diligence beforehand.
Offshoring and outsourcing contract manufacturing agreement types
Pricing is a constant battle between vendor and customer. Whether discussing printed circuit board (PCB) assembly or systems integration, the critical element of success in any partnership is providing the EMS vendor a reasonable profit. Without it, the contract manufacturer lacks motivation and may make compromises in other critical metrics such as quality, product lead time and staffing, which can adversely affect the EMS' performance and, ultimately, that of the OEM.
Following the planning phase of a contract, an OEM will typically receive a first draft. OEMs should keep in mind that even when outsource contracts cost a fraction of what it costs to keep the manufacturing in-house, EMS providers still make a profit-in many instances, more profit than the OEM is lead to believe. This leaves room for greater savings and cost reductions if the OEM is patient, perceptive and persistent during contract development and negotiations.
Roughly 70-80% of all contract manufacturing agreements fall under four different pricing models:
