Perspectives: Field Notes
Rest Easy With a Good BEDD
A basic engineering data document establishes ground rules.
"What's the temperature range on your cooling water?" I asked. A shrug was his reply. "What's the water quality for your boilers?" was my second question. This prompted another shrug. I got the answers I needed from his vendors but was embarrassed for him, even if he wasn't.
My young client needed a basic engineering data document (BEDD). It should have been in the first document he handed me. A BEDD should be developed during the initial design of a plant and updated periodically during commissioning, construction and operation of the plant. In short, a BEDD establishes the ground rules.
Don't confuse a BEDD with basic engineering data (BED), which is specific to a particular project, although it should excerpt parts of the BEDD.
As a minimum, a BEDD should include the following: 1) a site map; 2) an electrical area classification map of the facility; 3) utilities condition — e.g., temperature, pressure and composition, if applicable, of nitrogen, oxygen, air, instrument air, breathing air, process water, potable water, steam, condensate, eyewash water, fuel gases, etc.; 4) ambient conditions — e.g., maximum and minimum temperature, design conditions, including the effects of solar heating; 5) base elevation above sea level and barometric pressure; 6) pipe standards — e.g., ANSI ratings, surface finishes, corrosion classifications, paint guidelines as well as construction, testing and inspection requirements; 7) line list standards — e.g., how operating and design pressure is to be established; 8) grounding requirements for equipment and instruments; 9) drawing templates — e.g., process and instrumentation drawings (P&IDs), plans, elevations, electrical and civil diagrams; 10) basic vendor package form requirements — e.g., cover letter, design basis, data sheet and summary drawing; 11) product quality control criteria — e.g., parts per million (it's generally better to express ppm in terms of mass not volume); 12) programming standards — e.g., faceplate ones for a pump operation; 13) design conditions for sewer, flares and stacks; 14) management of change procedures and applicability — use flow diagrams; 15) ground excavation standards — e.g., depth required for trenches where trucks will pass and footing specifications; 16) the frost line, or freezing depth, and acceptable means of counteracting freezing; and 17) contacts for permits, inside the company, and in government bodies — e.g., in municipal and state environmental and safety agencies as well as federal ones.
This may seem like a lot — it is. The best way to simplify developing a BEDD is to use a checklist provided by a general contractor. For example, consider 25-psig steam produced by a 400-psig boiler. The first box would list the saturation pressure: 25 psig. The second box would detail the assumed nominal (design) temperature, which usually is the saturation temperature, in this case, 267°F. The maximum temperature assumes the steam is reduced from the boiler pressure and operated at the site high pressure — use the saturation temperature of 400-psig saturated steam as the maximum temperature, i.e., 448°F. The minimum temperature would be the condensate tank temperature, which should be part of the BEDD. Suppose we choose 40 psig as the pressure, then the minimum temperature would be 267°F for the collected steam. If the 25-psig steam isn't collected, then the minimum temperature would be the freezing point of water, 32°F.
Once the BEDD checklist is prepared, it must be updated as necessary. As with all important documents, explain amendments and ensure the general contractor and the company that will live with the BEDD long after the contractor has left both agree on them. A chronological history memo should document all significant changes.
In contrast, a BED is specific to a particular project and is less extensive. A typical BED should contain: 1) the process flow diagram; 2) a P&ID; 3) a preliminary line list; 4) an equipment list; 5) design procedures — e.g., software accepted for design; 6) purchasing, shipping, commissioning and turnover standards — e.g., types of flow measurements that are acceptable, equipment quality assurance, process loop checks, etc.; 7) reference to excerpts of the BEDD, such as barometric pressure; 8) citations to documentation procedures — e.g., drawing standards, instrument and equipment data sheets, documentation security requirements and approval procedures, etc. Some people contend a BED also should contain the design basis and other project details but I don't agree.
Don't consider the BEDD and BEDs as fixed documents. However, to avoid confusion, freeze them at times. Over the life of a facility, they are truly living things that require frequent re-assessment; change files and exception files must be maintained if they are to be useful.

Why musical genius comes easily to kids who start off early
In a new study, researchers have given new evidence that if parents want their child to excel musically they now have better justification for starting their lessons early.
New confirmation comes from brain scans of 36 highly skilled musicians, split equally between those who started lessons before and after the age of 7, but who had done a similar amount of training and practice.
MRI scans revealed that the white matter in the corpus callosum - the brain region that links the two hemispheres - had more extensive wiring and connectivity in the early starters.
The wiring of the late starters was not much different from that of non-musician control participants, New Scientist reported.
This makes sense as the corpus callosum aids speed and synchronisation in tasks involving both hands like playing musical instruments.
According to Christopher Steele, team leader from Max Planck Institute for Human Cognitive and Brain Sciences in Leipzig, Germany, younger-trained musicians may have an advantage because their training coincides with a key period of brain development.
At the age of 7 or 8, the corpus callosum is more receptive than ever to the alterations in connectivity necessary to meet the demands of learning an instrument.
However, Steele stresses that these connectivity adaptations are no guarantee of musical genius because musical performance is about skill, but it is also about communication, enthusiasm, style and many other things that are not don't measure.
Conclusively, while starting early may help you express your genius, it won't make you a genius," Steele added.

Hospital airs medical mistakes
The patient, dying of metastatic cancer, had arrived at the hospital several weeks earlier in agony. But doctors at Brigham and Women's Hospital fashioned a medication regimen that at last eased her suffering, and on the day she was transferred to a rehabilitation hospital, they recalled seeing her smile. Hours later, the patient was back in the Brigham emergency department, and once again in excruciating pain. Delays in transferring her, a language barrier, and a communications breakdown between doctors meant she did not get her medications on time. Hospitals typically keep missteps like this quiet. But the Brigham openly recounted this mistake, and the improvements it led to, in a monthly online newsletter for its 16,000 employees, to encourage staff to talk openly about their mistakes and propose solutions.

If you want to catch a movie while in Taipei, Shi Men Ding is the place to go. There are several theaters there within a four-block radius, including theaters that show blockbusters and theaters that show more artsy types of films. We almost never checked the theater listings before going there—if the theater we went to first wasn't showing the movie we wanted to see within an hour, the one down the street probably was! You can wander around the area and will stumble on a movie theater, or I believe the MRT maps will show the locations of some of them (even in English). As in the US, matinees are cheaper, but the first showing of the day (usually around 11am) is cheaper yet. Different than in the US, seats are assigned in movie theaters... so check your ticket (sometimes they just write it on the back—row first, then seat number). Two things about going to the movies in Taiwan (for us English speakers):
1. Unfortunately, you can't appreciate the many Chinese or other Asian films shown because (of course) they aren't subtitled. You'll have to wait for them to come out on DVD.2. Be careful when going to an English-language movie that is animated or has significant scenes in another language. Many animated movies are shown dubbed because children cannot read the subtitles that are usually used to translate English films. Or at some theaters, the one showing will be dubbed, and the next will be shown with subtitles. So you'll have to check on that. When watching movies that may have scenes in another language, those sections may or may not have English subtitles. The alien language spoken in Star Wars was subtitled in both English and Chinese, but Elvish in Lord of the Rings was not. Not a big deal if it's a small part of the movie, but if it's not (like in Proof of Life) you'll be in trouble.

When you get away to the Sonoma Valley and Napa Valley for a long escape, the first thing you think of is usually wine. The second thing? Relaxation. That's exactly what you get with a stay at the Gaige House in Glen Ellen, Calif.
The 23-room hotel is decorated in a luxurious Asian-inspired style, and rooms include TVs, Wi-Fi, private bathrooms and telephones with voicemail. The 10 Gaige House rooms are located within the original Queen Anne-style building, dating from 1900. There are eight Zen Suites scattered throughout the grounds, as well as two specialty suites and several studio suites on the property. Rates start at $179 and vary, depending on type of room and season.
If you're not looking, it's easy to pass this place up on a quick drive through town. From the street view, it's a beautiful old home. Once you investigate, the grounds seem to go on forever, just behind the Gaige House. Sprawling gardens and a swimming pool dominate the view, but walk a little farther and grab a chair to lounge in at the edge of Calabazas Creek. After a day of touring wineries, this is the perfect place to unwind.
Another way to help you unwind is the spa at the Gaige House. Pick your favorite spot—whether it's your room, the spa loft, next to the creek, or in the Zen garden—and get a long massage to really relax. This month, take advantage of the 50 Minutes of Bliss special: a 50-minute massage for $99 (regularly priced at $120). You deserve it, don't you think?
Even if you don't hit the wineries, the Gaige House is a great excuse for a romantic weekend.

Personally, I'm optimistic. Sure there's lot's of negatives, but there's also lots of positives. Sure there will be a lot of spam/idiots/slanderous commenting, but as has happened in every other outlet (Blog comments? Email? IM Spam? Craigslist?) it will soon be recognizable and ignorable. As a site-owner I am nervous, especially since this is Google, but if this thing is here to stay I would rather plan and strategize than moan and complain.
It was bound to happen sooner or later. Really, how many people here haven't at least thought about this?

FDA to reconsider breast implant ban
Topics: News
WASHINGTON (AP) — The government is considering lifting a ban on most silicone-gel breast implants, but federal scientists question whether there's enough evidence indicating how long the devices will last inside a woman's body — or what health risks may result if they break.
The Food and Drug Administration will consider the issue in a three-day meeting with its scientific advisers next week. The meeting is a key hurdle in determining whether the implants can re-enter the market. Since 1992, they have been available only to women enrolled in strictly controlled research studies because of fears they could cause major health problems.
The implants have been largely exonerated of causing such serious illnesses as cancer or lupus. But painful scar tissue that can form around the implants, breaks that require surgery to remove or replace implants, and other complications remain contentious. Just 15 months ago, the FDA told manufacturers that it wouldn't lift restrictions on the implants' sale until questions about breakage in particular are settled.
The FDA posted documents on the controversy on its Web site Wednesday.
Competitors Inamed Corp. and Mentor Corp. believe they've met that requirement, arguing that breast implants, just like pacemakers or metal hips, don't last forever but that newer generations are acceptably durable. They're better than salt water-filled implants that U.S. women can buy today, Inamed Vice President Dan Cohen said.
Broken implants don't always cause immediate symptoms, so the FDA asked manufacturers to use MRI scans to track durability. Mentor cited one study suggesting three-year breakage rates ranging from fewer than 1 percent to 5 percent of patients. Inamed data showed that over four years, implants ruptured in 3.4 percent of women who had received them for breast enlargement patients — and in 20.5 percent of breast cancer patients who received implants after a mastectomy. The company attributed that higher rate to a particular implant model that is being redesigned.
But those studies tracked small numbers of women for a short time, FDA scientists cautioned in preliminary analyses posted on the Web site.
"These data are of limited value" in determining how many years a woman can expect her implant to last — and what pain or other complications she might experience if it breaks and silicone gel oozes out, one FDA document concludes.

In terms of the software interface, the iPod nano has mostly the same look and feel. A customisable main menu with Music, Photos, Extras, Settings, Shuffle Songs and Now Playing fields are standard. New menu additions include a stopwatch and screen lock. Though the iPod GUI is famous for being user-friendly, it has garnered complaints, including dependency on the Now Playing screen for volume and other player controls, no quick access to equaliser settings, or the minor hassle of just turning off the unit. Still, with a group of handy interface items such as audiobooks and podcasts, a colour screen and a superb Click Wheel, the iPod nano continues the iPod tradition of ease of use.
Along with standard earbuds, a new iPod nano ships with a dock connector-to-USB 2.0 cable, an iPod dock adaptor (not to be confused with an actual dock) and a software CD. Accessories for the iPod, including those designed for the nano, abound (see our Crave piece on them here). One thing we noticed immediately after taking our iPod nano out of the box was that the black version is outfitted with the famous white earbud headphones.
In terms of features, the Apple iPod nano is the miniature version of the current iPod, also known as the iPod Photo. It plays the same digital audio formats, including MP3, AAC, DRM AAC, Apple Lossless, AIFF, WAV and Audible. It has the same organiser features with Contacts, Calendar and Notes; for Windows users, Outlook syncing comes with the new iTunes 5.0. There are four games, the handy On-The-Go playlist function and three new nano-only features: a world clock that allows you to introduce multiple times from around the world; an advanced stopwatch and lap timer; and a four-digit combination virtual screen lock -- which brilliantly looks like a safe (you use the Click Wheel to spin the dial) but doesn't seem terribly useful.
The 38mm screen cannot match the full-size iPod's 46mm one, but it displays album art and digital photos in thumbnail, full-screen or slide-show modes. However, we'll be quick to note that the Camera Connector accessory designed for transferring photos to the iPod from a digital camera does not yet work with the nano -- the iPod nano, as stated on Apple's Web site, is not truly "100 per cent iPod".
The iPod nano isn't decked out with all the features available on the market such as an FM radio, a voice recorder or line-in recording. These features can or will be added in some way or another with the multitude of third-party accessories available. It's hard to compare the nano to more traditional full-featured flash players such as Creative's MuVo Micro or Cowon's iAudio U2, both of which max out at 1GB and lack photo displays but incorporate line-in recording and an FM tuner into smaller -- though not thinner -- form factors. If you must have an FM tuner, don't get a nano; if you're into digital music, audiobooks and podcasts, the nano is a fantastic choice made even more so by its compatibility with iTunes and its Music Store.
Once you connect a nano to iTunes, it will show up immediately in the source list. Configure your relationship with iTunes in the Preferences panel under iPod. You can have iTunes automatically update songs and playlists or go manual -- ditto for podcasts, contacts and calendars. Photos can be synchronised from iPhoto in Mac or My Pictures in Windows. While these files are automatically formatted for the iPod, you can also store, though not view, full-size images directly within iTunes. In a nutshell, the iTunes side of the iPod experience truly makes the iPod better, though some of those who prefer to use another store don't have many options besides MP3 download sites and Real's Rhapsody Music Store. For more detailed information on the iPod's audio features, read our review of the 20GB iPod.
The Apple iPod nano is one of the faster players we've used in terms of navigation speed. Generally, MP3 players, especially hard drive-based players, pause for buffering every few songs -- it's the norm, even on iPods. Selecting or forwarding through songs or browsing the music library is mostly instantaneous. Photo thumbnails can take a second to load, but again, browsing through photos is quick and painless. Data transfers to the USB 2.0-enabled nano are swift, at about 5.3MB per second. In general, the sync relationship with iTunes on both the Mac and Windows side has been flawless. Our experience with Windows hasn't always been good, but so far, our nano-iTunes pairing is seamless.
As far as sound is concerned, the nano gets loud but not overly so when using the included decent-sounding earbuds. The overall sound quality is excellent, with imperceptible hiss, though we've heard slightly better in terms of brightness and bass from the likes of Cowon and Sony. Surprisingly, the iPod's multitude of equaliser settings can make a difference for the better, whereas we've characterised the EQs as being weak in the past. Reportedly, the nano uses the same sound chip as the Mini.
It would have been difficult to guess the battery life of the iPod nano before it was stated by Steve Jobs. It's a flash-based player, so it consumes less power than a hard drive-based model, and we initially figured it was good for 18 hours; it has a colour screen, so maybe lower that to 16. Apple rates the iPod nano for 14 hours, on the lower side for flash-based players, though the iPod Shuffle lasted only 12 hours in our tests. We regularly see flash models with rechargeable cells last into the late teens or early 20s, whereas alkaline-powered players can last more than 40 hours. We haven't been able to fully test the battery length ourselves yet.

LifeinAsia - 3:55 pm on Nov 2, 2010 (gmt 0)
Update- got a call last night from the driver of the white car. (It was a welcome change from the dozens of political robo-calls we've been getting, but that's a different rant...)
She said she filed a police report- they said they can't do much without a witness or information about the bus. Then she contacted the bus company- they denied any of their buses were involved in an accident. Finally, she contacted the school- they gave her my phone number and a copy of the letter I submitted.
She just moved to the area and it was a rental car (with a huge deductible, so the repair is coming directly out of her pocket). So she was thrilled that a witness had come forward so she can now go back to the bus company and police and push for a favorable resolution.
Oh, she said the bus company told her that they had "hundreds of buses" so there was no way to know which one it might have been. Yeah, right- the school doesn't even have hundreds of students!
So I feel much better now about deciding to do something instead of just letting the matter slide, as it looks like it may actually have made a difference.

text: I used a grill pan for this and also included some cherry tomatoes and zucchini in with the mix. I did not use parsley, but did use the balsamic dressing at the end. All in all, I felt that this dish was ok, but probably not one I would make again. The potatoes were a bit too hard, but the zucchini, tomatoes and onion tasted great! I served with steak & salad.

"It has been a particularly busy couple of months for the Global Polio Eradication Initiative (GPEI)," SciDev.Net Director Nick Ishmael Perkins writes in a SciDev.Net editorial. "The deadly attacks on vaccinators in Pakistan brought renewed global attention to the campaign, and then Bill Gates went public with his personal commitment to end polio," he states, adding, "The GPEI has responded with a strategy for what it calls the 'endgame.'" He writes the eradication of smallpox "is often cited by the polio eradication campaign as a model from which to learn" but notes "the context in which the GPEI operates suggests we can only learn so much from past success." He continues, "Indeed, the similarities between the two campaigns are striking," but "we shouldn't overstate similarities between the two campaigns," he continues, noting "[a] 1988 report by the WHO that documents the eradication of smallpox reveals some telling differences between the two campaigns."

Casino de Venezia
While on a trip on the vaporetto we happened to pass the Casino de Venezia which surely looks elegant, we happened to see the boat of the casino bringing in customers, which surely looks a scene from some James Bond film, but this time for real. Once we found our way to the building from the street entrance, it was not as glamourous as we could have imagined. There is an entrance fee of about 15 euros per person.

I have a problem related to storing data dynamically in two Dimensional String Array
, String[][]
I am dynamically storing data in the String[i][j]
array. Here the first index's value is fixed i.e. i=3
, but second index's value is different for all rows.
for example, I am getting values like this,
String arrElements[][] = {
{"abc", "xyz", "lkm", "pwd", "srt", "qwert"},
{"1234", "3456"}
I am getting values something like this. i.e there is only 1 value in the first row, any number of values in the second row and in the third row.
If I go like this,
int i = 0, j = 0;
String arrElements[][] = {};
arrElements= new String[3][25];
//What size should I define here.
arrElements[0][0] = "Sahil";
if (a == 0) { //Its just a logical representation of what I might be doing.
// Store the value in second row
arrElements[1][i] = a;
if (a == 1) {
// Store the value in third row
arrElements[2][j] = a;
Now, I am setting these values in the expandable list View
. If the number of values in any of the rows exceeds the size specified, it gives ArrayOutOfBoundException
. and if the size is less than 25, it shows empty rows.
Now, I dont want to give hard coded size limit for the array indexes. Is there any better way to deal with it.

Soap Scum
Banning driveway car washes
The state of Washington has ordered local governments to ban driveway car washing. Most storm drains in the Pacific Northwest are separate from sewers and dump water directly into streams and rivers without processing. Bill Moore, a water quality specialist at the state Department of Ecology, says he's concerned about metal particles from cars, as well as oil and soap runoff, which is toxic to salmon.
Not every town appreciates the mandate. Brian Carlson, public works director for Vancouver, a small city near the Oregon border, says he's happy to conduct a public awareness campaign about where the soap goes when Washingtonians dump their buckets. But he told The Oregonian, "We're not going to be car-washing bureaucrats run amok. We have higher priorities than that." Seattle is planning to institute a ban, however, and more cities may give in to state pressure before August, the state's deadline for enacting the local laws.
The ban is backed, unsurprisingly, by the International Carwash Association, an industry trade group of 25,000 businesses. Professional car washes are likely to be the only option for many home washers if the ban is enforced, and the businesses already dispose of their water in an ecologically acceptable manner.
Another possible consequence: a spike in school bake sales. Roadside car wash fundraisers are likely to fall afoul of the ban.

Sometimes only a proper cooked breakfast, eggs and all the trimmings, will do. In this recipe, all the trimmings, pretty much, go in with the egg and everything is cooked together in a quaint little pot.
1. |
Preheat oven to 180oC. Place 4 greased 1 cup capacity ramekins on a baking tray. Divide the rocket between each ramekin then spoon the passata between them. Crack an egg into each ramekin, being careful not to break the yolk. Dollop the PHILLY Spreadable Cream Cheese over the eggs, dividing evenly between the dishes, and then season.
2. |
Bake the eggs for 20 minutes, until the whites are firm and yolks still runny. Serve immediately with sourdough toast.
If the troops are hungry, you can squeeze two eggs into each of the four pots, in which case use 8 eggs and cook for an additional 2 minutes.
» Metric Converter |
Chardonnay, Other Whites and Dessert Wines are the best wines to pair with Baked Eggs.

Throughout the initial phases of the offseason, some believed that the San Diego Chargers would target one of the premier left tackles in free agency; instead, they went with a more budget-conscious option in former Eagles OT King Dunlap. Dunlap wasn't the most exciting addition, but he does offer positional flexibility and starting experience. But they've got some other options.

Will Amazon develop its own delivery fleet?
Yes, said ChannelAdvisor CEO Scot Wingo this morning in his keynote address at the annual ChannelAdvisor Catalyst conference in Las Vegas.
Magento powers 12% of top e-retail sites and Yahoo drives 10%, a study says.
Associate Editor
Topics: Amit Kumar, Big Commerce, e-commerce platforms, e-commerce technology, eBay, FitForCommerce, infoAnalytica Consulting, Jaya Gali, Lexity, Magento, Magento Go, Quantcast, small businesses, Software-as-a-Service, Volusion, web only retailers, Yahoo
Magento Inc. hosts 12% of the top 1 million e-commerce web sites as measured by traffic volume, according to data from audience measurement company Quantcast Corp. and Internet marketing research firm infoAnalytica Consulting Pvt. Ltd.
Magento, a unit of eBay Inc., stands to maintain its lead because its offerings appeal to a broad swath of sites, says Rod Forsythe, a senior consultant at FitForCommerce, which helps retailers plan their e-commerce technology. That stands in contrast to Magento's closest competitor, Yahoo Inc., which hosts 10% of the top-visited e-commerce sites, Forsythe says. "Magento will have aggressive growth because its board offerings go beyond small business stores that are most often embracing Yahoo," he says. Yahoo, he says appeals to micro–that is, retailers with perhaps with a single employee—and small businesses. Yahoo declined to comment.
Magento sells separate platform packages for small and mid-size retailers, which has helped the vendor penetrate a broad array of e-retailers since it launched in April 2007, Forsythe says. Magento Go, the vendor's Internet-hosted software-as-a-service, or SaaS, platform, "competes well with the Yahoo Store out-of-box store solution to support micro- to small-size businesses of $5 million to $10 million in revenue," Forsythe says. Meanwhile, the enterprise version is a mature platform able to address complexities involved in deploying and growing an e-commerce site for businesses with annual online sales ranging from $10 million to $70 million, he says.
"It is not surprising to see the increased market share of Magento and we might expect to see more of a land grab in the coming years," Forsythe says, referring to the growing number of sites it powers. "Much of Magento's success is due to its focus on customer community development via an open-source platform since the product's inception."
Such community development has led to a number of software add-ons, such as one to integrate an e-commerce site with QuickBooks or a live chat service, that have increased the functionality of the Magento platform, with ongoing development in areas such as mobile commerce and e-mail marketing, noted by Magento at its annual conference earlier this year. Because Magento's base of software is open-source—meaning any software developer can use the Magento software code to make her own changes and build upon it as part of a user community—the company has been able to rapidly increase its offerings and keep abreast of new technologies, Forsythe says. Its backing from eBay also helped grow its brand value, he says.
Besides Magento, Forsythe says vendors Big Commerce and Volusion are also on the rise. Big Commerce recently introduced a hosted and fully managed software-as-a-service platform, meaning retailers pay a monthly subscription fee to access software on Big Commerce's servers rather than investing in the hardware and licensing software themselves. That, plus the vendor's free trial offer and pricing, which is a flat rate instead of the revenue-sharing model of many other vendors, helps it compete in the market for smaller retailers, Forsythe says. Big Commerce subscriptions start at $24.95/month and go up to $299.95/month.
Meanwhile, Volusion continues to release new features and compete with Big Commerce's hosted model, he says. Both companies offer personal support to help ease the set-up and launch process, a strong attraction for clients.
After Magento and Yahoo, the data rank the next top e-commerce platform providers and their hosting shares as:
Myriad other vendors or homegrown systems host the remaining sites, each with less than 3% of the pie, the data say.
Lexity, an e-commerce app development company, asked infoAnalytica to conduct the platform-share study to examine the e-commerce platform market landscape, says Lexity CEO Amit Kumar. Lexity provides a platform that developers can use to build apps that work on more than 30 e-commerce sites, including ones from Magento, Yahoo and Shopify Inc.
At Summit, we're seeking a big appetite for Magento Enterprise amongst retailers turning over perhaps £5m to £30m in the UK and Europe. Even Tier One retailers have having a serious look - not for their main platform but for testing out new markets or for rapid launch of niche products. Magento is flexible, functionally well endowed and has a low cost of ownership. We don't anticipate seeing the demand slow any time soon.
