Life is too short to wear boring fragrance. This youthful blend of fruity and floral notes is designed to make you feel fabulous, even if the most exciting thing on your calendar is laundry. Accordingly, the glamorous glass bottle comes bedecked with playful charms. One spritz and you're ready for anything.
I live this brand! Though it can be pricy, the fragrance is wonderful and lasts all day! I definitely recommend that you try this! You will love it!
I'm not a huge fragrance person and for some reason I keep getting them in my box...this one smells ok. not my favorite
This is a scent I could wear everyday and not get sick of! A little bit goes along way. It smells really clean and reminds me of a citrus scent.
Not my favorite Juicy perfume (viva la juicy or la la malibu are fantastic) but this is a good quality perfume that will last a while and you won't get sick of it!
I love this perfume! I have been using it for years, it smells fresh and is pretty light! Juicy perfumes are some of my favorite scents.
Was not my favourite. I liked the other Juicy sample I got a few months ago. This was too floral for me. I was not into it.
Love this fragrance. Fresh, young, lively. I would bathe in this if i could. It's flirty and can wear it for day time and night time wear.
Definitely not for me. Smelled to floral and woodsy. I am more into sweet and warm smells. I would much rather prefer viva la juicy.
It was actually much better fragrance than I expected. I don't like fragrance much so that is saying a lot. It was light and refreshing . I would not buy it because I am just not into fragrance much.
I really liked the smell. It was girl but not over powering. I would purchase this item and wear it just for a daily use. Not so much for a date night or for going out. It's definitely a solid perfume that can be used everyday for the basic necessities or just to smell nice.

whats typically available?I am currently depoyed to Afghanistan, and need help from anyone with deployed nutrition knowledge.
I just turned 34, am 5'7", and weigh a very soft 220 lbs. My goals are to trim down somewhere between 190 and 200 lbs. I also have strengh gain goals (specifically sculpting my chest and reaching a personal bench goal of 300lbs), but that has been put on the back burner due to a possible broken thumb. Also of note, I have low test levels and am prescribed 4mg ANDRODERM patches.
So, after all that, my question is this: I can get to the chow hall regularly, but they always have a smorgasboard of crap. What suggestions can be made for meals that will help me with my goals? Most meals are consistant with what is served if bland and unappealing.
Thanks For Any Help,

Positive Job Outlook
According to the Boston Globe "Employers are putting a premium on communication, leadership, research and analytical skills," which it notes, are more likely to be gained by the strong liberal arts graduate.
Higher Salaries
Formal job market surveys indicate that Economics majors typically receive higher starting salaries than do graduates in less quantitative social sciences or the humanities.
A Strong Internship Program
The Economics Department has a strong internship program which relies on a broad network of contacts with firms across the Boston area that have been developed over many years.

The next version (greater than 1.0.903d) contains a bunch of decorators that will deny access to file, file dialog, sql client, oracle client, etc... The decorators are located in the MbUnit.Framework.1.1.dll in the MbUnit.Framework.Security namespace.
For example you can deny access to the SqlClient using the following:
using MbUnit.Core.Framework; using MbUnit.Framework; using MbUnit.Framework.Security; [TestFixture] public class MyFixture { [Test] [DenySqlClient] public void AccessDatabase() { // access to SQL client will fail in this method. } }
I have added 2 new improvements to MbUnit to avoid having tests blocked by assertions or timeouts:
[TestFixture(TimeOut = 1)] public class MyFixture{...}
Those changes will be available in release greater than 1.0.903
Question: So you are using files in your application, how do you test easily how it behaves if the file access is denied ? Answer: Use declarative permissions to deny all access on the files
Ok that's a rough introduction, let me develop the idea. When your application relies on using resources such as files, TcpChannels, registry, etc... you should test how it behaves when the access to those resources is refused. The resource denial can be caused by a lot of external factors (loss of connectivity, etc...), lack of physical resources, .... or by denied security permissions. In other words, security permissions is an easy way to simulate various situations such as file access error, etc...
Let me illustrate this by implementing a test decorator for MbUnit that makes all file access diened.
Creating DenyFileIOAccess decorator
As all test decorators, we derive a new attribute class from MbUnit.Core.DecoratorPatternAttribute and a new IRunInvoker from DecoratorRunInvoker:
using System; using System.Security.Permissions; using System.Collections; using MbUnit.Core.Invokers; using MbUnit.Core.Framework; namespace MbUnit.Framework.Security { [AttributeUsage(AttributeTargets.Class | AttributeTargets.Method,AllowMultiple = false, Inherited =true)] public sealed class DenyFileIOAccessAttribute : DecoratorPatternAttribute { public override IRunInvoker GetInvoker(IRunInvoker invoker) { return new DenyFileIOAccessRunInvoker(invoker, this); } private sealed class DenyFileIOAccessRunInvoker : DecoratorRunInvoker { private DenyFileIOAccessAttribute attribute; public DenyFileIOAccessRunInvoker( IRunInvoker invoker, DenyFileIOAccessAttribute attribute) :base(invoker) { this.attribute = attribute; } [FileIOPermission(SecurityAction.Deny, AllFiles = FileIOPermissionAccess.AllAccess)] public override object Execute(Object o, IList args) { return this.Invoker.Execute(o, args); } } } }
The important thing to notice in the snippet is the FileIOPermission attribute that tags the execute method. All the code executed inside that method will have file IO denied. So since Invoker.Execute calls the test method, we have what we are looking for.
DenyFileIOAccessAttribute in action
Let put the new decorator in action. The following snippet shows a simple test that tries to create a new file. The execution log using TestDriven.NET is outputed below. As one can see, a SecurityException was raised by the framework when trying to open the file.... it's magic.
using System; using System.IO; using MbUnit.Framework; using MbUnit.Framework.Security; namespace MbUnit.Demo { [TestFixture] public class SecurityTest { [Test] [DenyFileIOAccess] public void SecureMethod() { using (StreamWriter writer = new StreamWriter("test.txt")) { writer.Write("we should not be here"); } } } } -- output ------ Test started: Assembly: MbUnit.Tests.1.1.dll ------ Info: Test Execution Info: Exploring MbUnit.Tests.1.1, Version=1.0.1791.9801, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=null Info: MbUnit 188.8.131.52 Addin Info: Found 1 tests Info: [failure] SecurityTest.SecureMethod TestCase 'SecurityTest.SecureMethod' failed: Request for the permission of type 'System.Security.Permissions.FileIOPermission, mscorlib, Version=2.0.3600.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=b77a5c561934e089' failed. System.Security.SecurityException Message: Request for the permission of type 'System.Security.Permissions.FileIOPermission, mscorlib, Version=2.0.3600.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=b77a5c561934e089' failed.

This methodology applies to the other types of permissions that can be found in the System.Security namespace.
Where can I get those ?
MbUnit will soon contain a few other of those attributes. Since it is a .Net 1.1 feature, they will be enclosed in the MbUnit.Framework.1.1.dll under the MbUnit.Security namespace.
Reflector.CodeMetrics is a new Addin for Reflector that analyses and computes several code quality metrics on your assemblies. This addin uses the excellent Reflector API to compute classic metrics such as the cyclomatic complexity or more straightforward such as the number of local variables in a method. All results can be dumped to file (using DataSet.Save)
Download Reflector.CodeMetrics (look for Reflector.CodeMetrics.zip) For installation and usage instructions, please read the Readme.txt enclosed in the zip file.
Tip: when you explore the result, you can doubleclick on the border of the row to show the item in the decompiler
This is a preview of a new Reflector Addin that computes various CodeMetrics on .Net assemblies. The excellent Reflector API makes it very easy to do this kind of things. Here are the metrics that I plan to implement :
I have not done an extensive research on the subject so I might forget a lot of them, suggestions and links welcome.
Note that this uses a plugin architecture so that anyone can write and use his own metric.

Roy Dictus has ported NUnitForms for MbUnit.... Check it out here http://dotnetjunkies.com/WebLog/roydictus/archive/2004/11/15/32212.aspx
This new functionality enables you to specify a tabular list of test cases that are to be feeded to the test method. Let me illustrate that with the floating point division testing (as in the FIT framework Simple Example ):
You can now translate this directly to C# in MbUnit using the RowTestAttribute and the RowAttribute:
[TestFixture] public class DivisionFixture { [RowTest] [Row(1000,10,100.0000)] [Row(-1000,10,-100.0000)] [Row(1000,7,142.85715)] [Row(1000,0.00001,100000000)] [Row(4195835,3145729,1.3338196)] public void DivTest(double numerator, double denominator, double result) { Assert.AreEqual(result, numerator / denominator, 0.00001 ); } }
Of course, these tests are not very well targeted because we do not test the "special" floating point values such as 1,0,double.MaxValue, double.MinValue, NaN but you get the picture.
What if a test should throw ? In that case, you can specify the exception type as an additional parameter in the RowAttribute constructor:
[Row(1,0,0, ExpectedException = typeof(ArithmeticException))] public void DivTest(double numerator, double denominator, double result) {...}
The final output of the tests is as follows where you can see that 5 tests (one per row) were generated and executed.
Info: Found 5 tests Info: [assembly-setup] success Info: [success] RowTestDemo.DivTest(0) Info: [success] RowTestDemo.DivTest(1) Info: [success] RowTestDemo.DivTest(2) Info: [success] RowTestDemo.DivTest(3) Info: [success] RowTestDemo.DivTest(4) Info: [assembly-teardown] success Info: [reports] generating HTML report
I'm slowly catching up with putting some order in the MbUnit documentation. Therefore, MbUnit has now a Wiki (FlexWiki powered) part of the TestDriven.NET wiki. Feel free to contribute...
MbUnit has now a basic support for loading fixture and tests based on their names, such fixture are called Naked Fixtures . Although this may look like a step backward in functionality, this can be handy in particular situations. For example, if you don't want to reference any test framework, this is a good solution because it does not require any type or attribute.
Naming rules
Below are two fixture. The first uses attributes and should be familiar to you. The second is it's naked equivalent:
[TestFixture] public class ClassicFixture { [TestFixtureSetUp] public void TestFixtureSetUp() { Console.WriteLine("TestFixtureSetUp"); } [SetUp] public void SetUp() { Console.WriteLine("SetUp"); } [Test] public void First() { Console.WriteLine("Test1"); } [Test] public void SecondTest() { Console.WriteLine("Test1"); } [TearDown] public void TearDown() { Console.WriteLine("TearDown"); } [TestFixtureTearDown] public void TestFixtureTearDown() { Console.WriteLine("TestFixtureTearDown"); } }
Naked version:
public class NakedFixture { public void TestFixtureSetUp() { Console.WriteLine("TestFixtureSetUp"); } public void SetUp() { Console.WriteLine("SetUp"); } public void FirstTest() { Console.WriteLine("Test1"); } public void SecondTest() { Console.WriteLine("Test1"); } public void TearDown() { Console.WriteLine("TearDown"); } public void TestFixtureTearDown() { Console.WriteLine("TestFixtureTearDown"); } }

Find a Doctor
Request an Appointment
What constitutes good care after breast cancer treatment? How often do we need to see our doctors and what screening tests make sense and which doctors do we need to see anyway? There are different opinions about this issue, and one important factor certainly is psychological peace of mind (or, at least, as much peace of mind as you can find). Some women would prefer to never again see a cancer doctor and others wish they could check in monthly. Different physicians and different institutions have different standards of care, but, generally, it goes something like this: After completing radiation or chemotherapy, you fairly soon check back with your medical oncologist (especially if you are having a hormonal therapy, this may be the time that it is first prescribed). The appointments soon become less frequent and, usually, staggered so that you are seeing your surgeon, your radiation oncologist (if relevant), and your medical oncologist twice a year. With the right scheduling, this can mean a visit with someone every two months. Some women prefer to lump them together and stay away from the hospital when possible, but more seem to be reassured by more frequent exams and conversations. The only tests suggested by ASCO are an annual mammogram and, if you are at particularly high risk (usually meaning women who carry a gene mutation or women who have had more than one breast cancer), an annual breast MRI. ASCO specifically recommends aganst blood markers (http://jco.ascopubs.org/site/misc/15.5.2149.pdf), although some doctors and some patients do prefer to receive these tests.
All in all, it can seem like very little is being actively done to monitor a possible recurrence. The truth is (as counter-intuitive as this may be) that it has not been shown to be helpful to find a recurrent cancer a little sooner due to a rising marker or a scan rather than a little later when there is a symptom. It is also true that most recurrences are not found by the doctor at a follow up appointment, but are generally reported by the woman who is experiencing a symptom or a concern.
I like this article from Support Care Cancer. Instead of a lot of medical information, it presents the issues from the survivor's perspective. Per usual, I give you the beginning and a link to read more:
Problems in transition and quality of care: perspectives of breast cancer survivors
Aimee Kendall Roundtree & Sharon H. Giordano & Andrea Price & Maria E. Suarez-Almazor
Purpose We conducted a qualitative study to explore breast cancer survivors' perceptions and attitudes about their current healthcare utilization, screening, and information needs. Methods We completed eight focus groups of breast cancer survivors. We included women, adult survivors, with an initial diagnosis of breast cancer in the year 2000, treated, and without a recurrence as per medical record. To analyze transcripts, we used grounded theory methods, wherein unexpected themes and direct answers emerged from consensus between co-coders.
Results Focus groups included 33 participants, the majority of whom were white (84.8%), college-educated (66.7%), and covered by private medical insurance (75.7%) or Medicare (27.3%). Participants' perceptions and attitudes about care were framed in terms of personal experiences (including facing barriers to screening, feeling in limbo in the healthcare system, having problems with communication with and between physicians, confusion about symptoms, and using self-prescribe remedies), personal attitudes (including strong opinions about what survivorship means, concerns about recurrence, and changes in self-perception and agency), and social influences (including modeling others' behaviors, changes in social life, and listening to family).
Conclusion Survivorship attitudes, recurrence fears, mem- ories, and self-perceptions were influential personal factors in addition to self-efficacy. Solutions such as providing a cancer treatment summary might resolve many of the problems by consolidating and making readily available the numerous medical history and recommendations that survivors accrue over time, switching from provider to provider. Clinicians must also implement communication changes in their interactions with patients to enhance positive attitudes and behaviors, and leverage social influences.

Permanent supportive housing, a movement to supply homeless people with housing first and deal with their other issues second, has made big strides in reducing homelessness this decade.
Melanie Stetson Freeman/Staff
Quincy, Mass.
The simple though revolutionary concept that the most lasting cure for homelessness is, in fact, a home has helped the federal government and private groups make significant headway against homelessness during the past decade.
For years, the battle against homelessness was fought against symptoms. The answer to getting people off the streets, it was believed, was treating the underlying problems that faced the homeless, such as mental illness or drug and alcohol addiction.
But last year, the number of so-called permanent supportive housing units in the United States exceeded the number of emergency shelters for the first time. The reason is simple, advocates say: Permanent supportive housing not only removes the stigma of homelessness but is also cheaper than other alternatives, studies show.
IN PICTURES: Serving those who have served: veterans' programs
Thanks by and large to this dramatic shift in thinking about solutions to homelessness, the number of long-term homeless has decreased by nearly 39 percent since 2005. Perhaps most surprising, homelessness has stayed flat since 2009, despite the tremendous economic pressures of the recession's aftermath.
"There has been a complete paradigm shift in this country away from using emergency, big congregate shelters just to get people off of the street," says Brian Sullivan, spokesman for the US Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD). "This system is merely a band-aid with a big revolving door, and modeling our entire system of care on this wasn't having any meaningful impact in reducing homelessness, especially among the chronically homeless."

Today's weather forecast: California Dreamy
"Jesus meets Bonanza," says Jim Svejda, describing the CD he's sliding into his car stereo. A xylophone zings. The sound of galloping horses fills the BMW 328i. Svejda speeds up. A clarinet launches into "God Rest Ye Merry, Gentlemen." He takes both hands off the steering wheel and wiggles them in the air to the Philadelphia Orchestra's campy 1962 recording. Svejda's jaw drops into a smile. "Isn't it nuts?" he says.
Listen to a Svejda podcast
He ejects the disc and slips in something more serious. The third movement from Piano Quartet no. 1 by Bohuslav Martinu, the late Bohemian composer, has the qualities Svejda loves most in classical. "Abstract, distinct, nobody knows what the hell it is," he says. "It's utterly haunting." But this new version, by a Czech quartet, trickles from the speakers. Svejda's face clouds behind his amber prescription sunglasses. "Bad sign already," he says. "It's thin." A piano sounds a few chords. "You're joking!" he says, raising his voice. Before the strings have a chance to kick in, Svejda cries, "Oh, Jesus, this is unendurable." He jabs at the stereo. "Can you say 'mannered and précieuse' ?" He chucks the CD over his shoulder into the backseat. "Well, they were commies until not long ago," he says, "so you can't blame them."
Jim Svejda has expressed his strange love of "serious music"—his term that includes film scores, classical music, and jazz—weeknights on KUSC-FM (91.5) for half his 63 years. Since 1978, he has helped turn the former student station at the University of Southern California into the nation's premier public classical outlet. He added a weekend broadcast in 1983. KUSC's weekly audience of 814,200 puts it among the top five public stations in the United States. Its stature, along with Svejda's iconoclastic style, has made him one of the preeminent announcers in classical radio. Along with L.A.'s shiny concert hall, sexy young conductor, and lucrative film studio work that attracts famous composers and conductors, Svejda has transformed the city into what he considers to be the global center for orchestral music. "He is classical music personified," says Brenda Barnes, president of KUSC. More than that, he is eccentric enough—a ball of contradictions—to attract new listeners to a genre many worry is in decline.
DJs on classical stations are called "announcers" rather than "personalities," maybe because so few have any. Svejda, however, is so flavorful that he has earned "love to hate him" fans who chafe at his hamminess or his taste. An announcer's job, Svejda says, is to provide a little bit of context and then "get out of the way." In reality he calls attention to himself with wacky banter. He informs listeners that a composer was a syphilitic or a Nazi. Often he underscores the eroticism of a movement. Last October he played a romantic symphony by Sergei Rachmaninoff. "Sergei…it's just too much! Take me away!" he swooned in an accent that, despite efforts, still sounds Midwestern. Low, resonant, straining here and pausing there, his voice has become clearer thanks to sessions with the vocal coach who works with all of KUSC's talent. "I get this uncontrollable urge to light up right now. Great music has two great themes: God and sex. This is not about God." Describing another piece as "brazen," he said, "I mean that in a good way. Does brazen have a downside? There's that expression 'brazen hussy,' which I have always thought of as…you don't need to know."
If he's not saucy, he's silly. Soliciting donations during last fall's pledge drive, he took bids on the rubber chicken attached to his key chain. "Herbert for $200?" he cried indignantly. "Are you nuts?"
Barnes filled in for Svejda while he was on vacation last year and immediately received five e-mails from listeners who said versions of "Thank goodness it's you and not him." But, she adds, "there they were at 6:59 waiting for him to come on the air. They listen to every word he says so they can quote him when they complain. Only Jim has this group."
If there's a stereotypical look for a classical music lover, Svejda has it: the understated clothing—he's always in head-to-toe black—the salt-and-pepper beard and mustache, dark gray hair, and wire-rimmed glasses. But on the air he is as gushy as a boy in love for the first time. "Jim has a young following because he is able to make classical music cool," says Michael Medved, the conservative talk-radio host who is a close friend. "His message is that music is fun. He is a great believer in what animated Beethoven and Brahms, which is the idea that ordinary people can thrill to this music."
Svejda's name reveals his ancestry. Pronounced SHVAY-da, it means "the Swede" in Czech. The location of his hometown gave him an antagonistic streak. New Buffalo, Michigan, sits across the lake from Chicago. "Every summer," he jokes, "men would come over from the city and steal our women." He hated the Cubs. His father, who weighed trucks for the highway department, was a classical music aficionado who took his son to concerts. "I was a jumpy kid," Svejda says. "This was one of the only things I would sit still for." At 11, he took up the oboe, which he practiced for eight hours a day. He possessed the aural equivalent of a photographic memory, which has sharpened over time. Needing no more than a few hours' sleep at night gave Svejda the opportunity to pursue other passions. He collected nearly every baseball card in the 1957 Topps series. He cannot count the films he has seen more than 100 times.
In the late 1960s, Svejda attended the University of Michigan at Ann Arbor. He holds degrees in philosophy, history, literature, and—almost—African studies. He took part in draft protests to meet girls. "That was the reason most males of the period did political stuff," he says. "The prevailing myth was that the women were similarly liberal in their sexuality. Which proved to be an utter myth. At least for me." In all-or-nothing fashion, he gave up the oboe. He would never be truly great, he decided, so there was no point in playing.
"I don't have a voice for radio," Svejda says. Yet he chose a career in broadcasting and landed a paid job at WONO in Syracuse, New York. There his unorthodox style was born. The station's 26-year-old owner, Henry Fogel, rejected stuffiness for a more personal and passionate approach. He and Svejda thought it would become the norm for classical stations. (It didn't, of course, but Fogel's other innovation, the radio pledge drive, did.) Svejda moved on to the larger WCRB in Boston, then to San Francisco to make radio documentaries about composers. He missed being live on the air, so when KUSC called in 1978, he came to Los Angeles. It took him only a week to get over his preconceived notions of L.A.'s superficiality and embrace its "crazy experimentation." He dated so many women of different ethnicities that his mother suggested white ones must have seemed exotic. He even learned passable Chinese.
On his weeknight show he frequently interviewed conductors, composers, musicians, writers, and directors. He also condensed selected recordings from the show for The Record Shelf, a weekly one-hour program. Syndicated nationally, it heightened both KUSC's profile and his own.
As he grew in importance and boosted the station's ratings, Svejda's life took a series of unexpected turns. A self-described "standard-issue '60s radical," he swung politically to the right, even though he continued to work in public radio, which most conservatives would like to defund. Now a registered Republican and a fan of Rush Limbaugh, he says life experience extinguished liberal guilt he had felt about the disenfranchised. "I think everybody should get exactly what they think they deserve," he says, "and just shut up about it."
Svejda transformed spiritually, too. His parents were raised in Christian households, but in the 1990s he attended orthodox Jewish services. "I've always been an orthodox agnostic," he says, which means, "I don't know, and I wish I did. But Judaism is so civilized and so logical and so totally admirable."
At 42, Jim Svejda marked a decade at KUSC and entertained no notions of leaving. Los Angeles would be his home. He was writing a new edition of The Insider's Guide to Classical Recordings, his 900-page book. KUSC was close to passing a half million listeners per week. And then Svejda had a heart attack. His skin was blue when he arrived at the hospital. He recalls being vaguely aware of people trying to save him. "I saw the lights and hovered from above," he says. "I had a sense of sitting on a big stone wall and having this irresistible urge to lean over and jump off to get to the other side. There was also a sense of absolute euphoria." After bypass surgery, he quit smoking and drinking, but he did not cut back on work.
The next year, 1989, after he had helped build the nation's number one public classical station, KUSC switched format. Intended to reflect the diversity of the city and attract young listeners, "the New Sound" was a mix of classical, rock, pop, jazz, and hip-hop. One announcer resigned a week into the experiment. Svejda stayed, though he refused to play the Beastie Boys, or even the Beach Boys, alongside Beethoven. (He equates rock music with finger painting.) He stuck to his "serious" music and was not invited to participate in fund-raising. "I went in every day expecting to be fired," he says. Listeners—and funding—declined for seven years. Bottoming out, KUSC hired Brenda Barnes to return the station to an all-classical format and entice back its audience. "We had Jim Svejda," she says, "which was critical."
With Svejda at the nucleus of a hopeful staff, the fans returned, and the station's annual budget climbed from $2 million to $6.5 million. Approaching retirement age, he produces more hours of programming than any of the station's 29 other full-time employees. He edits out every "um" uttered in recorded interviews and takes vacations only when his boss forces him to. "He's never satisfied," Barnes says. "Nothing is ever good enough."

Personalization is as old as marketing itself. Give each customer what they want, how they want it, when they want it. New technologies, platforms, and devices give us the tools to reinvent this venerable approach, expanding its reach and effectiveness. To wring the maximum value out of personalization, you have to track your results, constantly re-evaluate what you are doing, and adjust your strategy accordingly. In Part One of this 5-part series on personalization, we'll start with the broad strokes.
Drupal is a fantastic Web publishing platform that derives much of its value from a disparate community of contributors, as Xconomy recently wrote. With more than 4,000 contributed modules from over 3,000 active contributors (741 of which contribute to Drupal Core), Drupal has something for everyone, which is both its greatest asset and biggest liability.
Choice is good. Too much choice, however, can be bad.
The same holds true for Red Hat, which charges a premium for its Red Hat Enterprise Linux distribution to enterprises that want to tap into Linux but don't want the bother of rolling their own version of Linux from Kernel.org.
The problem, however, is that such a business model depends upon the complexity of the underlying platform. If that complexity goes away, does the business model?
The Drupal-focused company Acquia is thriving because deploying Drupal, what with its myriad of choices, can be complex. Ditto for Red Hat. There are thousands of packages that comprise Linux, making it worthwhile to pay a trusted guide like Red Hat.
Savio Rodrigues of InfoWorld tries to parse what makes open-source buyers tick, and how to generate more of them. In so doing, he suggests that the real battleground is over those enterprises with both money and expertise to go it alone with open-source software (so-called "Category B" customers).
Why should they bother buying support when they can self-support?
For me, this isn't the right question. Using his MySQL-derived customer classification system, the real question is, "Can proprietary software serve Category A (companies with more time than money) at all?" and "Can open source more efficiently serve Categories B and C too?"

Valmagne Abbey
Valmagne Abbey is a beautiful Cistercian abbey that was transformed into a wine cellar after the French Revolution. Its magnificent Gothic church has been called the "Cathedral of the Vineyards."
Valmagne Abbey was founded in 1139 by Raymond Trencavel, Viscount of Béziers. The abbey was dedicated to the Virgin Mary and given to Benedictine monks. The abbey joined the Cistercian order two decades later.
In the 12 and 13th centuries, the Cistercian Abbey of Valmagne was among the richest abbeys in the south of France. The great Gothic church, inspired by cathedrals in northern France, was added in 1257.
The abbey's downfall came with the Hundred Years' War (1337-1453) and the Religious Wars (16th century). The extensive damage inflicted by Huguenots on the abbey in 1575 — which included the smashing of all stained glass — was instigated by the abbot of Valmagne, who had converted to Protestantism.
At the French Revolution in 1789, the last five monks of Valmagne fled just ahead of rebellious peasants, who ransacked and burned the abbey. In 1791, Valmagne Abbey was sold by the government to a private citizen, who turned into a wine cellar. This unusual use of the abbey church saved it from destruction. The abbey has been beautifully restored and was opened to the public in 1975.
Today, wine barrels still occupy the ambulatory of the Gothic church and visitors relax by the running fountain in the cloisters that was used by the monks to wash up before Mass. The abbey has an atmospheric wine tasting room — a high-vaulted room with an oversized chateau-like fireplace. The reconstructed medieval gardens bloom with honeysuckle, white roses, and medicinal plants. Here the monks grew plants for food, medicine and decoration of the Virgin Mary altar.

PICKERING -- Mitchell Sora went to Bowling Green University for the academics, and just happened to pick up the athletics while he was there.
The Pickering resident was home for the holidays, taking a well-deserved break from his studies and commitment to the rugby team at Ohio-based school.
While his academic venture can already be deemed a success, having gained entry into the President's Leadership Academy, he was equally successful on the pitch, helping lead his team to the national championship tournament in 7s, and the pending national championship tournament in 15s in the spring.
"It was a tough adjustment from high school to university to change how I would work," says the Dunbarton graduate of the first couple of months of his freshman year. "It took me a while to figure out how to do all the school work, on top of the leadership stuff, but I've got into a good rhythm."
The four-year leadership scholarship engages students in such things as classes, workshops and community service activities, with each year building on the completion of the previous one.
Using the experience he gained playing rugby for three years at Dunbarton and with the Ajax Wanderers, as well as a year with the provincial U18 program, Sora has played just about every position at the university level.
The 15s team went a perfect 8-0 in league play to become the MAC champions, scoring 459 points while allowing 101. Their high-octane offence never scored less than 37 points in a game. They await the national championship tournament slated for April.
The 7s team also had a successful run. With much of the emphasis on the 15s, Bowling Green didn't have a lot of preparation time for 7s, but managed to place second in one tournament, and gained an at-large bid for the national championships in Texas. Unranked going in, the Falcons placed 18th overall.
"It's way higher than I played before," says Sora, 18, of the calibre of rugby played at the Division I AA level. "It was a tough adjustment, but once I got the hang of it, it was enjoyable instead of a struggle."
Studying sports management, Sora hopes to enter the field of sports journalism, or become a sports agent upon graduation.

The San Marcos Water Treatment Plant recently earned its fifth consecutive state T.O.P. Award for meeting rigorous criteria in surface water treatment and will be recognized by the Texas Commission on Environmental Quality (TCEQ) Tuesday at 10 a.m. at the plant at 91 Old Bastrop Highway in San Marcos.
The plant is owned by the city of San Marcos and operated by the Guadalupe-Blanco River Authority.
The Texas Optimization Program (T.O.P.) Award, presented by the TCEQ technical review and oversight team, is a voluntary, non-regulatory program created to improve standards of existing surface water treatment plants without major capitol improvements. After a comprehensive performance evaluation and certain T.O.P. optimization goals being met for a six-month period, the TCEQ presents the recognition to the T.O.P. performing plants.
"We are proud to earn this designation because it reflects the considerable investments that San Marcos citizens, our city council and staff have made in this plant and the outstanding performance of the GBRA team that operates the plant," Tom Taggart, director of Water and Wastewater Utilities for the city of San Marcos, said.
"From the first recognition earned in this program to the most recent, our operators realize the importance of optimization in water treatment, and are very proud to consistently maintain these high standards," Jerry Sharp, GBRA's San Marcos Water Treatment Plant manager, said. "We will continue to operate under these very stringent guidelines to assure that the city of San Marcos and our other customers receive the highest quality water possible."
Only a handful of treatment plants throughout the state have earned T.O.P. awards for five or more consecutive years.
GBRA is the contract operator for the city of San Marcos' water treatment plant that began operation in January 2000. This facility uses surface water from Canyon Reservoir to reduce the city's pumping from the Edwards Aquifer by an average of 75 percent and existing city wells are used to supplement peak demand periods.
Raw water from Canyon Reservoir is pumped from Lake Dunlap through a 21-mile pipeline, treated to meet state and federal drinking water standards and delivered to the cities of San Marcos and Kyle for distribution.
The GBRA was established by the Texas Legislature in 1933 as a water conservation and reclamation district. GBRA provides stewardship for the water resources in its 10-county statutory district, which begins near the headwaters of the Guadalupe and Blanco rivers, ends at San Antonio Bay, and includes Kendall, Comal, Hays, Caldwell, Guadalupe, Gonzales, DeWitt, Victoria, Calhoun and Refugio counties.

More on Phat Sammich. |
Published 1/13/2010
What do Funyuns, soft-shell crabs, bananas and grilled cheese sandwiches have in common? They're all ingredients in one or another of Phat Sammich's 60 selections, a mishmash of retro and stylin'-five-years-ago sandwiches with a decided tilt toward the calories-be-damned. Yes, grilled cheese sandwiches are an ingredient — two of them encase a hamburger patty with bacon in No. 56, the "Heart Attack." And don't forget the Funyuns.
Open since Aug. 17, the day before the Dream Cruise, as the staff fondly remembers, Phat Sammich is the brainchild of Jeffrey McArthur, owner of Farmington Hills' Grilled Cheese and Tomato Soup.
It's a small and simple spot with a cheerful staff, an exposed kitchen, counter stools for seating, and everything served in plastic; most business seems to be take-out. Peace signs and stylized flowers decorate the walls, a daisy dots the "i" in Sammich, and the slogan is "Groovalicious, Baby!"
But the menu choices aren't geared toward the heirs of hippiedom. Retro options include fried bologna with an egg, meatloaf, Philly cheese steak, Reuben, club, BLT, the Elvis (that's where the bananas come in), burgers and dogs. Offerings made popular in the '90s or '00s include roasted vegetables with Gruyère, buffalo mozzarella with pesto and aioli, Cuban and various roll-ups, even in a lettuce leaf.
McArthur's biggest seller, the Phat Sammich, or No. 1, will give an idea of his "more is more" philosophy. It's your choice of meat on Italian bread, with Swiss cheese, cole slaw, Russian dressing — and the French fries inside the sandwich. If you're going to be eating fries anyway, why waste the opportunity to exercise your jaw hinges? These sandwiches are tall.
Googling will net you mixed reviews for Phat Sammich, and mine is too. I found several of the sandwiches too dominated by a single flavor despite their plethora of ingredients, and there was too much sweetness where it didn't belong. But I also found a sandwich I loved and a guilty-pleasure salad.
One big seller is based on pulled pork, barbecued beef or chicken, with cole slaw, barbecue sauce, cheddar and Funyuns on an onion roll. I sampled that at the same time as a "Cuban panini" — ham, shredded pork, pickle, red onion, aioli and Swiss. They tasted pretty much the same — like barbecue sauce. There was no aioli or cheese flavor discernible in the Cuban, but lots of onion. (Note that a traditional Cuban sandwich would use yellow mustard, which you could taste, and no onion. McArthur does hew to tradition on his Philly cheesesteak, though — the cheese is Cheez Whiz.)
I tried four soups and found none to rave about. Their best quality may be that you can get a large amount (called a "cup") for $2.95 when you buy a sandwich.
Tomato bisque — apparently very popular at the Farmington Hills location — and "loaded chili" are available every day, with three other soups rotating. I found the "crab and clam chowder" fairly good, definitely redolent of the sea, salty and quite thick. Vidalia onion is a thick soup, not a French onion broth, very sweet with a touch of heat. Blue-cheese crumbles provide a good contrast — the sweetness really is cloying. The chili is just a normal non-cook-off-winning chili. And the tomato bisque was a disappointment: too sweet for me, with no tomato flavor, though I did like the spiciness.
My companion was happy with his turkey-bacon-avocado (though the avocado was a spread, not slices), and I raved about my "wild mushroom." I wouldn't testify to the wildness of the fungi, but they were a dream with caramelized onions (not too sweet), spinach and aioli on perfectly grilled French bread. The mushrooms were so juicy they were squirting and the spinach so fresh I could pretend I was eating healthfully.
The cheap-thrills salad was spinach with hot bacon dressing, which no amount of greenery could disguise as a low-fat choice. Though the chicken bits were processed and the dressing was who-knows-what (it's supposed to be made with hot bacon drippings), the salad retained enough of its retro character to gratify.
Side orders include Tater Tots, onion rings, chili cheese fries and house-made potato chips. A $2.50 order of sweet potato fries was big enough for four, and they were decent if somewhat limp.
My advice to Phat Sammich customers? Add a fried egg to your BLT.
Phat Sammich is open every day and delivers in Birmingham at lunch time on weekdays. There's a patio for watching the Dream Cruise and other traffic.

Best/Easiest way to view pictures from USB device?
I got my mother a Nexus 7 and a mini USB to USB cable. What is the best way for her to view files on a USB stick or SD card in USB device?
Unfortunately I am not with her or I am sure I can figure it out but she says she plugs in and nothing happens, nor does she see any options in the gallery. Was hoping someone here could offer some advice before I go through the hassle of finding an SD card, putting pictures on it, and messing around with it on my own Nexus7. - 01-06-2013, 10:03 AM #2
Re: Best/Easiest way to view pictures from USB device?
Go to the Google Play store and get the Nexus Media Importer. You can use it to play a variety of media types. It will open up when you insert the cable with the USB flash drive attached.

Nearly a dozen city transit workers were recognized Tuesday for going beyond the call of duty.
NY1's Pat Kiernan led the celebration as the Daily News saluted 11 transit workers at the Hometown Heroes in Transit Awards ceremony on the Upper East Side.
The workers were recognized for their extra efforts and, in many cases, even saving lives.
The honorees included bus driver Steve St. Bernard, who was coming home from work and saw a child in danger of falling.
He then caught her as she fell three stories.
"If I reflect on what happened last year with the little girl, it's like it's still hitting me. I'm still feeling it catching the little girl," St. Bernard said.
The awards were held in partnership with the MTA and the Transport Workers Union Local 100.
