   1.                                                   Your proposed narrative
description of the calculation of the non-GAAP measures "as
                                                        adjusted operating
margin" and "as adjusted diluted EPS" does not appear to provide

information to reconcile to the comparable GAAP
                                                        measures without
unreasonable effort. In this regard, please consider providing a
                                                        schedule for the
reconciliation.
