Linux has become a key foundation for supporting today's rapidly growing IT environments. Linux is being used to deploy business applications and databases, trading on its reputation as a low-cost operating environment. For many IT organizations, Linux is a mainstay for deploying Web servers and has evolved from handling basic file, print, and utility workloads to running mission-critical applications and databases, physically, virtually, and in the cloud. As Linux grows in importance in terms of value to the business, managing Linux environments to high standards of service quality — availability, security, and performance — becomes an essential requirement for business success.

Virtualization offers the promise of limitless resources, but how do you manage that scalability when your DevOps team doesn't scale? In today's hypercompetitive markets, fast results can make a difference between leading the pack vs. obsolescence. Organizations need more benefits from cloud computing than just raw resources. They need agility, flexibility, convenience, ROI, and control.

text: Feb Four makeup ideas perfect for a Valentine Whatever your plans for Valentine's Day, you will want to rock a special outfit and sassy cosmetics because, well, you can. This holiday is the perfect time to try out fun makeup ideas like smoky eyes and red lips, but don't stop there. Take a note from Michelle Trachtenberg and try violet eyeliner, Us Weekly suggests. Girls with pale skin look especially pretty in this color, which brightens eyes. Apply this makeup to your bottom lashes then smudge sideways from the inner to outer corners. Another trend to try is bubblegum pink or "orchid" colored lips. A nice change from classic red lipstick, rocking a pale or bright pink lip color is perfect for this holiday. Putting on concealer before you apply this shade will help if your lips are naturally deep red. While many makeup palettes focus on eyes and lips, why not try out some new blush techniques for this lovely holiday? The news outlet points out that Charlize Theron layered differed shades of blush at the Golden Globes to get a two-tone look. If you'd rather keep it simple, Glamour Magazine suggests tying your hair in a loose ponytail and rimming your eyes with black liner to look sultry yet natural.

You Give A Mouse A Cookie & Other Story Books is brought to life by Theatreworks USA's musical revue based on seven popular children's literature stories. Performed by a multi-racial cast, the stories represent various issues, themes and ideas relevant to a broad and diverse audience of children. Books featured in the show include:
• "AMAZING GRACE" follows young Grace as she attempts to break stereotypes in an effort to play the title character in her school's production of Peter Pan.
• "BORREGUITA AND THE COYOTE" is the classic Mexican tale of a little lamb, or borreguita, who uses her wits to escape a hungry coyote.
• In "IF YOU GIVE A MOUSE A COOKIE," a boy shares his snack with a hungry, demanding mouse, and learns a hilarious lesson about cause-and-effect.
• In "IMOGENE'S ANTLERS," young Imogene is delighted to wake up with "cool" antlers, but soon discovers that her parents and school principals do not share her enthusiasm.
• "MARTHA SPEAKS" is the adventurous tale of a family dog who literally becomes outspoken after dining on alphabet soup.
• Based on a Nigerian tall tale, "MASTER MAN" concerns a man whose muscles are as big as his ego, who earns his comeuppance when he claims to be the strongest man in the world.
• "MATH CURSE" playfully addresses the phobia some kids have when tackling seemingly difficult math problems.
• "OWEN" just can't bear to part with his beloved blanket, Fuzzy – a problem, since he is about to start kindergarten. Owen's understanding mother provides a clever solution.

Nice... but!
(Wellington, FL) - April 19, 2011
The canvas is really nice, but it is costly to custom frame it and the selections aren't very good from this site. Also, you'll find the size odd to frame with ready made frames. The canvas itself is a good present.
Pretty but.....
(Virginia Beach, VA) - March 22, 2011
This picture is really pretty but when you buy the big size like I did the picture isn't really that clear. I had bought a smaller one previously and the picture was really clear but I don't feel the same about the big one. Also I hope you dont think the words look like the are actually written in the sand cause there not. They look like they were just drawn on. But I knew that when I ordered it. Oh and the frame is not worth $30.00. You can get a really nice frame for cheaper or about the same price.
Do not order frame...

I must admit I was disappointed. Although the idea is great and personalization nice, I was pretty disappointed in the actual image. It was not crisp and clear as it appeared to be online. It looked more like something I could have copied on a color copy machine. Now I'm stuck with it as a wedding present but not happy with the price I paid. Sorry to have to write this. I have enjoyed your other products.
Beautiful Canvas, horrible personalization

The personalization was not very good. I agree with the other reviews that its looks like someone wrote the names with a sharpie pen. Hopefully, it will look better when its hung on the wall. All of the other products I have order from this company, have been excellent. So, I was disappointed with this particular item, specifically the personalization part. Hopefully they can work on this part because the concept is really nice.
Nice Canvas.. cheap printing

Although I was very happy with the actual canvas picture itself, I was not pleased with the printing on it. It looks like someone stamped names on the canvas, not remotely close looking to writing in the sand. I know it cannot be actual sand writing, but it looks like it was stamped on.

Not impressed with the writing on this item. Does not look like someone drew our names in the sand - you can totally see that the writing is on the canvas in black as opposed to brown like the sand. Frame is wonderful quality and the canvas print itself is very good.
Canvas quality good, but personalization looks like it is written in sharpie

I was very excited to get this for my boyfriend for Valentines because his house is beach themed and I thought it would go well. While I am very impressed by the quality of the canvas and the picture, the personalization is looks like it is written in sharpie. That said, it isn't written in sharpie, but the writing doesn't go with the rest of the picture. Overall, the quality of the canvas is durable and heavy and will look nice on his wall, but the personalization I could have done myself.
Not as good as I expected

I was a bit disappointed when I opened it. Not as good as other things I have ordered in the past. The canvas was actually larger than I expected (which was great) and the picture itself was beautiful. I was disappointed in the way the names and date looked. I had expected them to look as if they had been written in the sand, but sadly it looked liked someone took a magic marker and wrote them in.
printing could have been better

I just received this item yesterday and I'm a little disappointed with the quality of the names. I agree with other reviewers when they say that it looks like the names were written in with a Sharpie. From a distance it looks good, but close up it looks a little cheap. Disappointing after receiving other wonderfully personalized items from Personalization Mall.
Nice but...

I bought this for a wedding present for my sister. She got married on the beach. The quality of the canvas itself is great. The printing of the names however was very cheap looking. Like someone wrote them in with pen. Overall was pleased. My sister loved it! Thought it was the coolest thing. I however did not like the cheap look of the writing in the sand.
Not so happy

"Our Paradise Island" was perfect for the occasion and received well. I'm sure it will be enjoyed for a long time. I was a little disappointed in the quality.
It's Ok, but not awesome
(Ooltewah, TN) - December 18, 2012
I won't reiterate what other's have said. Simply stated, BUY THE SMALL ONE. The larger prints are blurry looking and unfocused. The names in the sand look out of place and "computer generated" as others have noted. Smaller is key. I purchased the 16x24. Go smaller. Its a neat idea, but I was disappointed with how out of focus the picture looks. Its ok at an "across the room" viewing distance, but anything closer it is quite noticeable that the resolution on the picture isn't very high.
Paradise Island is pixelated!!!
(Tualatin, OR) - December 5, 2012
I am not satisfied with this product because the only thing that is not pixelated are the letters in the sand - otherwise everything else is extremely blurry. I could have taken a better high resolution picture on the beach and had it blown up and it would have been much better quality.
Very disappointed!
(Liverpool, NY) - October 7, 2011 (
See all reviews by this customer
I was so excited to order this and was very disappointed when I received it. The picture itself is blurry and the writing of the names and the year looks odd against the blurry picture. The canvas has no backing and you can see how it was stretched and stapled on the back. For the cost it could be better.
Product nice, customer service & personalization poor
(San Diego, CA) - August 30, 2011
When I added the 2 names to this picture, the PersonalizationMall.com site capitalized a letter in one of the names that I typed in lower case.
Customer service said they couldn't help me.
I didn't get to 'personaliz'e my item the way I wanted it, I got what Personalization.com thought I wanteded with no other options to choose from.
Nice, but...

I liked the idea of the photo, however, upon seeing it in person, I feel that it is lacking something. I think it would look better if there were a few footprints on either side of the heart, plus maybe a rock or stick laying next to it, showing what drew the heart. I think that would make it look more realistic.
Not there best
(phoenix, AZ) - February 8, 2011
I bought this as a gift for my boyfriend and was rather disappointed. I have purchased other items so did not expect this. The canvas and picture are rather nice; however the personalization unfortunately looks very "digital" and gives the entire picture an amateurish appearance. The overall impression is rather juvenile.
Good Idea - Not so great quality

I haven't ever ordered anything from Personalization Mall before so this was the first thing. I ordered this for my wife for Valentines Day as a gift but I was disappointed in the quality of the image you get with it. Granted, my wife is a photographer so I tend to pick images apart as well and I am sure she is going to pick it apart but it is a really good idea tho. I don't think I will order any more canvases from personalization mall but I will probably try other things.
Not impressed. Don't buy.

The photo's was not very high quality. It looked a little fuzzy and not sharp.
Also the writing for the custom names looked poorly done. The font and effect used did not look realistic and it was obvious it was computer added even from a distance.

I was VERY excited about this piece, my fiance and I just got engaged in Hawaii, and I thought this would be a nice present to him now that we are home. It is VERY grainy... I mean, it is like they stretched it out too much. I am not very happy with it, but I cannot return it. :(

I love the website and order gifts from here quite often, I am almost always 100% pleased with my orders. However the script on the Canvas looks like its written in ink rather than drawn into the sand... I was dissapointed.
Did they use a maker to write the names?

This item gets mixed reviews. Reading pages 1-4 in the reviews makes it look like an exceptional item. However, I would strongly agree the page 5 reviews. The canvas itself is wonderful. The names written in the sand do, indeed, look like they were written in with a marker. I give a star for quick shipment and another star for the great packaging of the product.
Love the Picture... not too happy with the Personalization...

We bought this for our friend's for their Wedding present, and I am almost embarrassed to give it to them. I love the picture and the idea of it all... though expected the personalization to look better... a little more like it WAS written in the sand. If it were written a little bit lighter in color, closer to the color of sand, I think it may have been better. As it is, it look o.k. from far away, but when you see it up close it looks... well... just too fake.
Cheap Looking

I purchased this as a bridal shower gift and was very dissapointed. I put in the bride and groom's nicknames to make the gift more personal, and now I am glad that I did. It turned out more as a gag gift than anything. The names look like someone wrote them in with a sharpie. I do not recommend this, and can't beleive I paid $50 for it!
Name Spacing
Jackie M.
(Orlando, FL) - April 8, 2013 (
See all reviews by this customer
If you had not given me this chance to "sound off" about the product I purchased, I would probably not send this review. But since the information was right here for me, I do indeed want to express my unhappiness. The spacing of the names in the heart are not good. The first name, Bernadette, the "B" is actually so close to the line in the heart, you can hardly see it. There was more than enough room on the end of the name to space it more evenly and thus the entire picture would have been perfect. The idea and the picture is amazingly beautiful, I just think the spacing was off and the gift is not as attractive as it should have been.
Disappointed With Poor Quality Of This Canvas!
(Rancho Cucamonga, CA) - March 6, 2013
I sent away for this personalized canvas as a special wedding gift for my daughter and her new husband; She hesitated to tell me that the quality was very poor of the canvas print and actually looked quite cheap overall. Being that I sent this from out-of-state before attending the wedding, I asked my daughter to call the company to ask for any recourse (refund or replacement), but she felt the company representative dismissed her concerns and basically said there was nothing to be done. I felt really bad but just sent the new couple a check instead and will not be ordering further from personalization.com. Thanks.
Paradise Island Canvas- terribly dissatisfied
(Charlotte, NC) - December 28, 2012
When I received the product I was very unhappy that I spent so much money on an item that was poor quality. The pictures on the website looked great, however when I received my order it was awful. The picture was very "pixel-y" and the personalized wording was poor. I ordered this to give as a gift but once I saw how bad it looked, I would never want to give this to anyone.
not what it looks like
(Layton, UT) - December 10, 2012
I ordered this for my newly married brother and the picture looks fake and the words that you personalize look like a poorly printed computer font. It is also hard to see because it's the same color as the sand. I was really hoping the names in the sand would look realistic but it's aweful, even the picture looks unrealistic. Very disappointed and wish I could return it. I'm to embarrassed to give it to my brother, not even suitable for décor in the garage. Waste of money! Want my $30 back.
computer generated
(Brookfield , WI) - November 27, 2011
Did not expect to get a product that looked so computer generated. Does not even attempt to look real. Ordered something similar years ago as a wedding gift from another site and the names where actually written in the sand; it was not computer generated. Very disappointed in the way this product turned out.
Looks computerized
(Toms River, NJ) - August 22, 2011
I was very disappointed with my picture. I got it as a gift for a bridal shower. The painting looks like a real painting, however the words are computerized and it looks very obvious. I would not recommend purchasing this item....go to the beach and do it yourself!! Save the money!
Shower Gift For Daughter
(Aurora, , CO) - April 12, 2011
I purchased this item from other favorable reviews on this website. However, I was disappointed in the product. I purchased the 12 x 18 picture since previous reviews said the larger you go the more blurry the picture is. Well, the 12 x 18 picture is blurry and I am happy that I did not purchase a larger more expensive picture. I purchased it for my daughter's upcoming bridal shower this weekend and while I am going to give it to her, I am disappointed in the final product and am happy that I purchased other gifts for her shower and not just this picture. Hopefully, she will like it for sentimental reasons since she is getting married on a beach in Mexico next month so just maybe it will mean a little something more than what it looks like. I am disappointed in this product!
Very poor graphics quality

It is obvious this item was completed by someone with very little graphic design experience. I could have done this myself. The customization was done without regard to image focus and it is severely pixellated. Not worth the money in my opinion.

I have ordered many things from this website and have been extremly happy. However, I ordered this beach scene with engraving in the sand as a gift. The quality of the pixels in the picture seems blurry and are very poor. Also the writing in the sand, you can tell is different than the rest of the sand. Would not recommend considering the price.

We consider the efficient allocation of a single good with interdependent values in a quasi-linear environment. We present an approach to modeling interdependent preferences distinguishing between "payoff types" and "belief types" and report a characterization of when the efficient allocation can be partially Bayesian implemented on a finite type space. The characterization can be used to unify a number of sufficient conditions for efficient partial implementation in this classical auction setting. We report how a canonical language for discussing interdependent types - developed in a more general setting by Bergemann, Morris and Takahashi (2011) - applies in this setting and note by example that this canonical language will not allow us to distinguish some types in the payoff type - belief type language.

Simmons Elementary School's student senate is collecting for its holiday food drive, an annual project that assists the families of Simmons students. From left are student senate members Jensen Knoll, Grace Kramer and Harley Hermansen, organizing food items that have already been turned in. Students will collect food items until Friday. (Courtesy photo) (Aberdeen News / December 5, 2011) |
The spirit of giving is alive and well at Simmons Elementary School.
Members of the school's student senate began collecting food for needy families last week. This year's fundraiser, like every year, will help feed the families of Simmons students who may be in need this holiday season, said Abe Wieland, a fourth-grader and student senate member.
The way the fundraiser works is that each grade brings in a different type of nonperishable food item, which will fill boxes to be donated to families. For instance, the fifth grade is bringing rice, macaroni and pasta, and first grade is bringing cereal, said fifth-grader Grace Kramer. Other donated items included canned goods, crackers, packaged fruit and oatmeal, to name a few.
"The whole school is helping out," she added.
Students, Melissa Meidinger, the school's reading tutor, and Erin Zachow, the school's counselor, said they're hoping to be able to fill enough boxes for 25-30 families.
"Last year, we had 15 or so boxes," Meidinger said.
Teachers at Simmons also sponsor an angel tree, Zachow added.
"Students' names are given to me, and each receive a number," Zachow said. "The numbers are placed on the tree for the teacher to choose from. Then they go out get gifts for these students, and the gifts are placed in the boxes."
Students started collection items on Dec. 1, and will continue through Friday, depending if there are enough items to reach their goal.
"We may have to extend it out a little if we don't get enough," Zachow said.
Right now, Meidinger said the plans are to contact families who may be in need a week before Christmas, and inform them that they can pick up the boxes.
Student senate members said that they've enjoyed being involving in this project thus far. Fifth-grader Harley Hermansen said the best part of the project is being able to help others.
"It's important to be kind and help others," Meidinger said. "Students are learning that through this project."

Noodles and pork broth and beer, together at last.
The beer goes on sale this fall.
The new logo is not really a scallop, but is not yet a clam.
Live long, prosper, and try not to get crazy beer burps.
Not the most vital piece of barware ever invented, but certainly a real conversation starter.
An heir to a beer company's fortune is no longer all about guns and ammo.
He's been working hard with Lakefront Brewery on a recipe for Fernet Stout, and now it's flowing through tap lines at Nicoletta Pizzeria and Osteria Morini.
The beer is dark, bitter, and best at breakfast time.
What a long, strange sip it's been.
When the world's best beer gets its only American release, the crowds come out.

With more than 700 locations, Jamba Juice proves to the masses that nutrition can be speedy and delicious. Since the beginning, the company's product philosophy has revolved around choosing whole fruits and other natural ingredients over artificial flavorings, sweeteners, and preservatives. The menu is completely free of high-fructose corn syrup and trans fats, and it offers additional accommodations for vegan and gluten-free diets.
This naturalistic approach is fully realized in Jamba Juice's selection of smoothies. Made with 100% fruit juice, sherbet, and frozen yogurt, the frosty delights range from all-fruit smoothies such as peach perfection and strawberry whirl to more indulgent creamy treats, including peanut butter moo'd, an enticing blend of peanut butter, bananas, nonfat vanilla frozen yogurt, and milk chocolate.
For those with heartier appetites, steel-cut oats steep in soymilk before being enhanced with toppings such as apples, cinnamon, and brown-sugar crumble. The lunch hour presents protein-packed mini wraps, toasted bistro sandwiches and California Flatbreads that pack only about 320–420 calories each.
Village Wines may primarily spotlight Northwest wines and beers on its weekly-rotating menu, but its food menu draws inspiration from all over the globe, while a high-end selection of pick-me-ups from Stumptown Coffee and Choice teas provide a boost any time of the day. Hot and cold shareable plates evoke tapas-style dining, although the flavors atop each dish range from Asian to French, along with a kids' menu for younger taste palates. Pizzas come topped with combinations such as goat cheese and prosciutto or Jack Daniel's barbecue sauce with pulled chicken. Bistro-inspired sandwiches include styles from around the world, such as an authentic french-dip au jus, helping tongues experience France without licking the door to the Louvre.
BOBACHINE CAFE' offers,wonderful drinks and treats like, Bubble Tea, Caffe' D'arte Espresso, Fruit Smoothies, Milkshakes, Snoqualmie Gourmet Ice Cream, and pastries.

When Exequiel Soltero left his small-town home in Mexico for the US, he didn't want to leave his culture behind; in fact, he wanted to share it through the bold flavors of Mexican cuisine. His journey through the restaurant industry began humbly. Jobs as a dishwasher, a busboy, and a waiter allowed him to save enough money to make his dream a reality. With help from his nine sisters and three brothers, Exequeil has helmed Mayas Mexican Restaurant since 1979, inviting patrons to stop into the quaint eatery for homemade dishes—carne asada, chicken mole, and burritos and enchiladas overstuffed with imported cheeses. Yet, the dine-in menu is only half of the Mayas story. The restaurant also caters Seattle events and gives the whole city the taste of Mexico Exequiel has dreamed about from the beginning.
Serving fresh and speedy pizza across America since 1959, Little Caesars has grown into a huge, international carryout phenomenon. Pizzas featuring fresh dough are made to order in large ($8.99 for up to three toppings) and large deep dish ($9.99), mimicking the spectrum of sizes seen on nature's pizza trees. Toppings range from classic pepperoni and sausage to canadian bacon and pineapple. Return as the conquering hero of your family and save your twins the trouble of hunting down bipedal mastodons by picking up one of Little Caesars HOT-N-READY pies ($5.55). The large-sized HOT-N-READY pizzas are available in pepperoni or cheese, and can be picked up any time without the need to order ahead. Fans of three-dimensional eats can try the Italian cheese bread ($4.99) or chicken wings ($5.99 for 8).

Doctors' pay rises with new patients
The Boston Globe, March 7, 2012
Reflecting dramatic shifts in health care, Massachusetts General and Brigham and Women's hospitals are paying doctors more if they agree to accept new patients. The Harvard-affiliated hospitals are tying about 10 percent of doctors' salaries this year to the size of their practice and the complexity of their patients' illnesses. That means the hospitals' 360 employed primary-care physicians can increase their pay, now roughly $200,000 a year for those who work full time, if they see more patients than the average, or if they have many patients with multiple medical problems. Their pay can fall if they take care of fewer people.

It's not often I come back to a game and consider that it's possible I gave it a lower score than it deserved. In fact, I can only think of one other game that, in hindsight, I should have probably scored higher – Dead Rising. The...

Red Alert 3 is a worthy game to spend your time at but we must acknowledge that its theme has been largely exhausted in the previous games of the series and the developer finds it hard to come up with something original. The new faction, the Empire of...
