FoxFi (WiFi Tether w/o Root)
You can connect from any computers or tablets or even game console. Access Point is infrastructure mode with WPA2 security. FoxFi usage is covered under the same phone data plan you have and no tether plan needed. This saves you $20/month from your carrier.
Currently WiFi mode may not support some phone models and we are working to expand the supported list. However Bluetooth/USB mode works for all phones. To check and see if WiFi mode can be supported on your phone visit http://foxfi.com/devices
Again you do NOT need a tether plan or root your phone (otherwise you do not need our software). It WiFi mode prompts you to call your carrier that means FoxFi has failed and you should use USB mode or Bluetooth mode instead.
*If you have T-mobile, you should use USB mode with "Hide Tether Usage" enabled.
*Sprint and AT&T has blocked the original FoxFi from Market. If you get error installing please use the second link from http://pdanet.co/android
*Starting from Android 4.1 carriers have locked-down the WiFi hotspot feature on most phones, to work around that FoxFi will ask you to install a "FoxFi certificate" on those phones. The side effect is that Android system will require you to set a screen lock when any security settings is changed. For some models there may be a way to remove the lock screen while keeping the certificate. Please see details at http://pdanet.co/wifi
-- Android 4.4 will also show a warning message that says "Your network usage may be monitored" as a result of installing the "FoxFi Certificate". You can safely ignore this warning because the FoxFi certificate can not be used outside of turning on hotspot.
-- If the screen lock or the monitor warning bothers you, you can actually remove the "FoxFi certificate" as soon as WiFi hotspot is ready (the certificate, as well as the VPN, is only needed during the "turning on" period). See steps below.
--To remove the FoxFi certificate, select "Clear Credentials" from phone security Settings (this removes ONLY the FoxFi certificate, all the stocked certificates will stay). If "Clear Credentials" is disabled, open the list of certificates and select the "User" tab, then open the FoxFi Certificate and scroll down to remove. Only after that your phone will allow you to set screen lock to "None".
*AT&T Galaxy/Note phones: WiFi mode is now blocked if you updated to 4.3. Please use USB/BT mode.
*The free version has a usage limit that requires you to restart FoxFi to continue using free mode. You can purchase the full version key to unlock this.
Here are some tips to help your usage:
1. On some models if you run into WiFi problem after using the Hotspot, simply reboot your phone and rename the hotspot before activating to clear the issue.
2. For some Samsung phones if your computer is not able to get an IP address, try to turn on WiFi on the phone first and make sure it does not connect to any WiFi network, then turn on FoxFi.
3. FoxFi is tested on non-rooted phones. If your phone has a rooted ROM it may or may not work.
4. When WiFi hotspot is activated you may also see a hotspot notification of the built-in WiFi hotspot feature. Please ignore it. As long as you do not sign up for a tether plan you won't be charged.
5. If you enter or change the hotspot password, make sure you rename the hotspot also before activating.
6. Sometimes Windows need a "repair" on the WiFi menu to get a correct IP address.

Will Kelly from Techrepublic wrote a tutorial on how to send files from Android to iOS using Fast File Transfer: http://www.techrepublic.com/blog/smartphones/send-files-between-android-and-ios-with-fast-file-transfer/6097
How to send multiple files?
Just select multiple files in your file explorer and tap "Send via" (or similar) -> "Fast File Transfer"
In some file explorers first tap "Send via" in the menu, choose this app and then your files.
I don't want to always enter the address on the receiver's phone!
Simply use the built-in QR codes or NFC support.
The transfer speed this app offers depends on the sender and receiver device.
Although I have never experienced such a case, I do not guarantee for any data fees caused by this app.

A Multi-case Analysis of the Development of Enterprise Resource Planning Systems (ERP) Business PracticesAntero, Michelle Carol (Frederiksberg, 2015)[More information][Less information]
Abstract: The potential of Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) systems to integrate the business functions of any organization has led to its proliferation since the 1990s. Arguably, ERP systems potentially enable an organization to become competitive, and their impact has since been extensively researched and debated. This thesis seeks to understand how ERP vendors have innovated and developed their business practices to ensure their own competitive advantage. The thesis consists of an overview wrapper and five articles. This work is based on a research methodology using case studies to understand the development of business practices in the ERP industry since the 1950s. As such, the thesis explores the journey of different ERP vendors that (1) were influenced by their environment, (2) participate in different structuring processes to develop their business practice; (3) adapt their business practices to produce product/service offerings potentially matching or exceeding the actions of their rivals; and (4) encounter challenges as they shift their business models. The thesis reveals that in order to continue to outlast the competition in a hypercompetitive environment, ERP vendors (1) refine their business practices, over time, through incremental and evolutionary changes impacting the ERP industry; (2) obtain a competitive advantage through the exploitation of core resources; (3) co-create with a partner network to maximize their resources and increase their ability to compete; and (4) realize the value proposition in terms of the business model.

The Case of the European CommissionHøjlund, Steven (Frederiksberg, 2015)[More information][Less information]
Abstract: What effect do evaluation systems have on the use of evaluation? This is the research question guiding this PhD thesis. By answering this research question as well as three sub-questions, the thesis addresses three important gaps in the evaluation literature: the first gap is that evaluation theory does a poor job explaining non-use and justificatory uses of evaluation. The second gap is that evaluation theory does not account for the systemic context of evaluation in its more general explanations of evaluation use. Finally, the literature does not account empirically for the micro-level of evaluation use in evaluation systems. The thesis draws inspiration from organisational theory and in particular organisational institutionalism. Organisational institutionalism explains organisational action and change to be driven by legitimacy-seeking organisational behaviour. Organisations seek to legitimise themselves in order to survive in their environment. This theory is applied to the concept 'evaluation system'. Hence, the assumption underlying this thesis is that organisations within an evaluation system are using evaluations to appear accountable rather than improve policies. The thesis investigates the European Union's evaluation system with a particular focus on the European Commission. This is done in four articles. The first article is a theoretical article introducing organisational institutionalism to the evaluation literature in order to explain non-use and justificatory uses of evaluations. The second article is a historical analysis of the development of the European Commissions evaluation practices. The third article is a case-based analysis of evaluation use in the European Commission. The fourth article is also an empirical article on policy learning from evaluations in three different Directorate-Generals in the European Commission. The methodology used in the empirical articles is qualitative content analysis and the data were more than a hundred Commission documents and 58 interviews with Commission staff.

Mapping Controversies over a Potential Turn to Quality in Chinese Wind PowerKirkegaard, Julia Kirch (Frederiksberg, 2015)[More information][Less information]
Abstract: The thesis inquires into dynamics and controversies of constructing a market for wind power in China. Inquiring into what the thesis dubs a quality crisis in Chinese wind power after years of high growth rates, and into a potential turn to quality, the thesis traces such current ambiguous winds of change with point of departure in the notion of global innovation networks (GINs). Thus, it looks into how international collaborations on critical components, such as software programmes, play a critical role in the qualification of wind power as a 'sustainable' renewable energy source. However, with a structural rather than micro-relational or processual lens, the existing GIN literature is claimed to be ill-equipped to grasp the genesis, dynamics, and agency of GINs. To fill this gap, the thesis develops a situational, constructivist framework based in Science and Technology Studies, which renders a processual and relational understanding of GINs as part and parcel of market construction. It does this by initially 'looking away' from the original metaphor of GINs, with the result of effectively reconceptualising it. This is done by illustrating the dynamics and the agency of GIN genesis through a mapping of controversies over issues of Intellectual Property Rights, standardisation, money, and cost and price calculations, entangled in a Chinese 'system problem' of stateowned actors and a Chinese experimental pragmatism of market construction, which has had unintended effects. Tracing one potential GIN taking shape around a critical component, the thesis also contributes to the GIN literature through a new methodological approach. Illustrating the potentially disruptive dynamics of GIN construction, and how the emerging GIN around software programmes possesses disruptive agency in regard to the framing of the emerging Chinese wind power market, the thesis sheds light on some of the socio-material work needed to construct and maintain GINs and the markets it co-constitutes and is co-constituted by, as well as the negotiated roles, identities, and positions of actors in a developmental context of China. The thesis coins the seemingly particular Chinese mode of market construction within wind power a fragmented and experimental 'pragmatics of (green) market construction', with its agile responses to emerging issues. Last, to overcome the dualism between structural and processual accounts, the thesis draws on the pragmatist notion of figuration (Elias, 1978). After demonstrating a potential figurational change reflected in the ongoing turn to quality, the thesis also considers the implications that the inquiry has for other related literatures, hereunder proposing a new research agenda for New Economic Sociology to understand market and GIN construction in a developmental context, which holds a promise for inquiring into China's self- and other-disruptive, yet potentially path-creating modes of development and upgrading.

An Ethnographic Study of Trust, Distance, Control, Culture and Boundary Spanning within Offshore Outsourcing of IT ServicesTøth, Thomas (Frederiksberg, 2015)[More information][Less information]
Abstract: This PhD dissertation is an ethnographic field study of the collaboration between Berlingske Media, one of the leading media companies in Denmark, and their Indian IT service provider, HCL – one of the largest IT service providers worldwide. The dissertation studies the day-to-day operational collaboration between actors from the client organization and the vendor organization in order to understand how vendor-side actors, as individuals and as a collective, can be constructed as trustworthy collaborators in the eyes of the client-side actors. While trust is the theoretical epicenter of this thesis it is, in acknowledgement of the contextual and dynamic nature of trust, subjected to an interdisciplinary analytical framework. Thus, the four analytical chapters in Part II introduce four different factors that influence the client-side actors' perceptions of vendor-side actors' trustworthiness: distance, control, culture and boundary spanning. The analytical conclusions are summarized in Part III of the dissertation. Based on these analytical conclusions a number of practice-oriented suggestions on how the client-side actors' perceptions of the vendor-side's trustworthiness can be improved are presented and discussed. Furthermore, the theoretical implications are presented and discussed. URI: http://hdl.handle.net/10398/9115

The starting point and motivation for the study is the observation that whereas PPPs are often depicted in the academic literature and in policy practice as a globally disseminated governance scheme, in reality, a closer examination of the PPP reform landscape reveals significant differences in national governments' PPP policy and regulation and in the amount of actually implemented PPP projects. By comparing the initiatives taken by the Irish government, which has embraced PPPs, with those of the Danish government, which has been a PPP sceptic, this study inquires into the fundamental questions as to how, why and to what consequences some governments have developed widespread policy and regulation frameworks to support the implementation of PPPs, whereas others have been much more reluctant. The dissertation addressed four research questions: (i) what are the key actors, strategies and institutions that create policies and regulations for the formation of PPPs?; (ii) how did governments' PPP policies and regulations develop over time, and how can their similarities and differences be explained?; (iii) how do differing national policy and regulation frameworks serve to facilitate or hinder the formation of PPPs, exemplified by four case studies from the schools sector?; (iv) what framework conditions does the EU set for PPP initiatives at national and sub-national levels? The main aim of the dissertation is to study how and why national PPP policy and regulation frameworks developed over time. At the national government level, the study thus contains both diachronic and synchronic analysis. Furthermore, in line with previous research within what has been called the governance approach within PPP studies, policy and regulation are also seen as constitutive elements that tap into and set the general framework conditions and institutional 'rules of the game' for the realisation of concrete PPP projects. The comparative interest at the central government level is thus supplemented by an analysis (a) of the interplay between decisions about policy and regulation at the national level and the formation of concrete PPP projects, and (b) of the EU's role in regulating decisions about PPPs at national level and in relation to the formation of concrete PPP schemes. A main finding is that whereas academic PPP literature often portrays governments' rationales for resorting to PPPs in terms of achieving innovation, collaborative advantage, value-for-money, new market possibilities, improved risk sharing etc., the findings brought to the fore in this dissertation suggest that a primary objective indeed was to remove major public infrastructure investments from governments' balance sheets, and thereby reduce the pressure on public capital budgets and provide more infrastructure than would otherwise be possible. However, as the off balance sheet rationale has been shown to be largely false, because there is always a bill to pay in the long term, this raise a number of broader legitimacy and accountability issues, which the present PPP policy and regulation frameworks of governments do not seem to adequately address.

Latest Press Release
Greek Easter celebrations in the south Peloponnese
Enjoy the warmer climes of Greece this April and celebrate two Easters on one holiday (ours and theirs are just a week apart this year). Villa Zoe Hotel, in pretty Gialova, offers a wonderful insight to the lively – and world-renowned – Easter festivities in Greece. On Good Friday, the church holds an atmospheric candle-lit procession and Holy Saturday Mass concludes with fireworks. On Sunday, the hotel provides a traditional feast, including painted eggs, Greek Easter bread and mouth-watering spit-roast lamb. Departing 4 April, 10 nights' B&B is from £644 pp (two sharing), including Easter Feast, return flights (Gatwick) and transfers.
Your best-ever night's sleep on a plane… guaranteed
On Costa Rica's Pacific coast, a 1965 Boeing 727 sits on a hill, its nose jutting out through the trees. And you can sleep in it. Fitted out with two air-conditioned, luxury bedrooms, each with its own private bath, dining area and an ocean-view terrace, this is one of the most unusual bedrooms around. Give it a go on Sunvil's tour of Costa Rica taking in San Jose, Tortuguero, Arenal, Monteverde with four nights in Manuel Antonio – home of the bedroom Boeing. Price is from £2,889 pp (two sharing) including flights (London), transfers and 14 nights' B&B.
Direct flights to the Azores resume on 4 April
The mild temperatures in this Portuguese archipelago make it a fabulous destination for a spring holiday. Head to 'the Blue Island' of Faial with its nautical atmosphere, learn about the islands' volcanic origins at the Capelinhos museum, walk alongside its vast volcanic crater – or experience some of the best whale and dolphin watching in the world. In the evening, drop in for a beer at the legendary Peter's Cafe and listen out for sailing stories. Seven nights' B&B (two nights on Sao Miguel and five at the harbour-side Pousada Santa Cruz, Horta) cost from £1,065 pp (two sharing), including flights (Gatwick) and all transfers.
Costa Rica's natural riches in luxury
Experience culture, wildlife and nature in comfort on this tour that stays at luxurious lodges, hotels and spas on a Costa Rican exploration. Take in San Jose's historic neighbourhoods, Tortuguero for sea-turtles, Arenal for its beautiful lake, active volcano and tropical forest, Manuel Antonio National Park, for marine activities and the thirteen ecosystems of the Osa Peninsula for some of the nation's best wildlife viewing. This 15-day holiday costs from £3,955 pp (two sharing), and includes flights (London), 14 nights' mixed-board accommodation, private transfers and excursions.
Cultural immersion in Lisbon
Shake off the winter fug and delight in the many museums and music of this magical city. Experience the impressive Calouste Gulbenkian Planetarium and the Ajuda National Palace, be moved by the sorrowful Fado music and, on a lighter note, be sure to try the world-famous, irresistible custard tarts. The Heritage As Janelas Verdes Hotel, a late 18th century aristocratic mansion which was once the home of the Portuguese novelist Eca de Queiroz, is next door to the Museum of Ancient Art. A three-night stay costs from £491 pp (two sharing), including flights (London) and transfers.
See the Spanish Steps look pretty in pink
During March, to herald the beginning of spring, Rome's famous Spanish Steps are given a pink-tickled makeover, and covered with thousands of vases of azalea flowers. The blushing blooms remain in place throughout the month, adding an extra flush of colour to this iconic landmark. Stay close by at the Modigliani Hotel, a small, family-run property tucked away on a quiet side street. A three-night stay in March costs from £463 pp (two sharing) including flights (Heathrow) and B&B.
A premier Portuguese spa escape
The historic Convento do Espinheiro Hotel in Portugal's Alentejo region is one of the country's national monuments – a majestic former monastery now transformed into an uncompromisingly luxurious hotel. Deserving mums can kick back and bliss out in the award-winning spa, with Turkish bath, sauna, Jacuzzi, indoor pool and a wide selection of spa treatments. Over Mother's Day a three-night trip costs from £494 pp (two sharing) including B&B, flights (London) and car hire.
Spring in Tuscany
Avoid summer's scorching temperatures and tourist crowds and visit Tuscany in early spring, when prices are lower, the weather is warm and beautiful bright flowers are beginning to fleck the countryside. Borgo Tre Rose is a medieval hilltop hamlet that has been converted into a peaceful countryside retreat, complete with an excellent restaurant, three wineries and views to die for. A seven-night stay in March costs from £727 pp (two sharing) including flights (London), B&B and car hire.
A winter adventure in Swedish Lapland
The new seven-night From Coast to Mountains itinerary focuses on the region of Jokkmokk, deep in the heart of Swedish Lapland. The journey begins in the coastal town of Luleå before striking out north to Jokkmokk, home to a 400 year-old Sámi winter market (held every February), and where winter activities include dog sled tours and snowmobile rides. The price of £1,944 pp (two sharing) includes flights (Heathrow via Stockholm), transfers, B&B and activities.
Follow the footsteps of Patrick Leigh Fermor
2015 sees the 100th anniversary of the birth of Sir Patrick Leigh Fermor – one of Britain's most beloved travel writers. Mani and Roumeli are his twin odes to Greece, a country where he spent a large portion of his life. Mani documents Fermor's travels around the Southern Peloponnese and the Mani peninsula, focusing on the charming village of Kardamili, which he made his home. See the inspiration behind the work with a stay at Anniska Apartments, set right in the heart of the village. A seven-night stay costs from £645 pp (two sharing) including flights (Gatwick) and transfers.
See the real-life Arctic landscapes of 'Fortitude'
'Fortitude', Sky Atlantic's latest budget-busting blockbuster, hit screens on Thursday in a maelstrom of mystery and murder. The fictional town – surrounded by epic Arctic landscapes – was inspired by the high arctic archipelago of Svalbard, home to soaring snow-clad mountains, vast swathes of white tundra and around 3,000 Polar Bears. Visit the (far more peaceful!) capital of Longyearbyen to try your hand at an array of wintry activities. A three-night stay at Trapper's Hotel costs from £939 pp (two sharing) including flights (London) and B&B.
Rome pulls out the stops for history buffs
To commemorate the 2,000th anniversary of the death of Augustus in 2014, many of the sites related to the first Emperor and founder of the Roman Empire have been given a facelift and reopened to the public. A new exhibition space has opened at the Villa of Livia, and the Palatine Museum has been carefully refurbished. Work has also begun to restore Augustus' mighty mausoleum. Stay in a quiet little spot close to the Via Veneto at the Modigliani Hotel, where a three-night stay costs from £463 pp (two sharing) including flights (Heathrow) and B&B.
Portugal's spectacular coastline by foot
This new self-guided walking holiday follows Portugal's Rota Vicentina: two walking trails that meander along the gloriously unspoilt coastlines of the Alentejo and Algarve regions. Stroll past empty swathes of sandy beach, through charming seaside villages and over rugged clifftops, stopping en route to try local delicacies in traditional, family-run restaurants. The seven-night trip costs from £539 pp (two sharing) including flights (Gatwick), car hire and B&B.
Family summer in Cyprus
Sunvil is offering a free room for children (up to three pax. aged 2-12) at the luxurious beach-front Anassa Hotel in Latchi on stays between 16 March and 30 June 2015. A seven-night stay departing 4 April now costs from £5,020 for a family of four sharing two interconnecting studio suites, including flights (Gatwick), B&B and transfers. Was £7,840 – save £2,820 / 36%.
Snow-dusted romance
Head to the sparkling snowscapes of Swedish Lapland for a wonderfully wintery romantic break. Cosy up at Sorbyn, a charming guesthouse fringed by dense forests, which has an excellent restaurant specialising in local Lappish cuisine. There are plenty of snowy activities to try: get your thrills on a snowmobile excursion, whizz through pristine scenery on a husky sled tour or get twinkly-eyed on an Aurora hunting expedition. A seven-night stay departing 10 February costs from £1,228 pp (two sharing) including flights (London), transfers and B&B.
Renaissance romance
Head to the home of literature's most renowned star-crossed lovers with a Valentine's break to Verona. Wander arm in arm through wonderful piazzas, along narrow streets of ancient palazzi and amid the city's superb shopping streets. By night, stroll about like Shakespearian lovers, smitten with the city and each other. Stay in the city centre at the aptly named Hotel Giulietta e Romeo. A three-night stay departing 13 February costs from £584 pp (two sharing), including B&B, flights (Gatwick) and private transfers.
Get back to nature and go gadget free
iPhone run out of battery? Tough. Kolarbyn wilderness huts – located in the rural Swedish countryside – have no electricity or running water, let alone Wi-Fi, 4G or fibre-optic. Leave electrical paraphernalia at home and get back to nature in this peaceful retreat. Try lounging by a roaring fire, chopping wood from the surrounding forest or foraging for the freshest food. A wilderness guide is on hand at all times for those whose survival skills could use a little honing. A seven-night trip including five nights in Stockholm and two at Kolarbyn costs from £729 pp (two sharing) including B&B, flights (Heathrow) and car hire.
A real-life winter wonderland
Leave the UK's soggy January far behind and head to postcard-perfect Northern Norway, where primary-coloured villages glow beneath snow-sprinkled mountains, glittering fjords stretch out to the horizon and there are thrilling winter activities galore. This new five-night trip includes a coastal wildlife safari, mountain hike and incredible Arctic bathing experience – an insulated flotation suit is included, naturally. Northern Norway at its Most Spectacular costs from £1,735 pp (two sharing) including flights (Gatwick), transfers, mixed-board accommodation and activities.
Polar nights and Northern Lights
Start 2015 with a bucket list-worthy trip to Svalbard, the epic Arctic archipelago that sits 1,000km south of the North Pole. In the depths of winter, during the period of Polar Nights (where the sun never quite makes it over the horizon), the skies are a dusky blue, the snow-clad landscapes take on a mystical feel and it's possible (weather conditions permitting) to spot the dancing wisps of the Northern Lights, 24 hours a day. A three-night stay at Trapper's Hotel in the capital of Longyearbyen costs from £1,096 pp (two sharing) during winter, including flights (Heathrow) and B&B.
Snow-sprinkled break to Swedish Lapland
Chances of a white Christmas in the UK range from very slim to a round none, so if you're desperate for a snowy experience this winter head to Swedish Lapland, where there's piles of the stuff. Sorbyn is an owner-managed guesthouse surrounded by snow-clad forests and next to a twinkling frozen lake. Activities on offer include snowmobile tours, husky sledding, ice-fishing and Northern Lights excursions. A seven-night stay costs from £832 pp (two sharing) including flights (Heathrow), B&B and transfers.

As the Fall has progressed, so has my retirement and we have some exciting new changes coming up. Jeanette Allen, herbalist and right-hand person here at the store who many of you know (and love), will be taking over the herb and tea business. Her new company, Herbs, Teas & Treasures will continue to supply our high quality organic herbs and teas. She will be running the business from her home and orders can be placed through her website, www.herbsteastreasures.com, and shipped directly to your home. The website is still under construction but will be available by November 17th.
Come see Jeanette at the Natural Living Expo on Sunday, November 16th. We will be transitioning the business the following week and you can start ordering from Jeanette on Monday, November 17th.
I am thrilled that Jeanette will be continuing the business so that quality herbs and teas are readily accessible in the Central Mass area, which was always my goal. I will be continuing with teaching and speaking at outside organizations and continuing my work with the Herbal Community of Central Mass and the Herb Society of America.
Many thanks to all the wonderful customers I have met over the last decade and all of you who have continued to support us over the last year through my retirement transition. It has been a pleasure to know you all and I hope we continue to see each other on our herbal journeys.
Visit My BlogI set up a blog when I realized I can't include everything in the monthly newsletter and people seem interested in my herbal "doings". I've had some starts and stops but hope you will check it out. I find it is a great medium for posting pictures and updates of my new herb garden, sharing recipes, and talking about all things herbal. See my recent entries about the current Fire Cider controversy going on in the herbal world.

Located in Lower Manhattan and bounded by Broadway, Canal, West and Chambers Streets, Tribeca is one of the swankiest places to call home in the city. The area was put on the map in the 1960's when many budding artists began renovating abandoned industrial buildings and warehouses for more spacious art studios and living quarters. Some attribute this time to the birth of industrial chic design and loft-dwelling which has become a hip architectural style, but back then it was completely revolutionary. The area still maintains much of its architectural history with famous art-deco and neo-Renaissance influences in buildings such as the 32 Avenue of Americas building, The Textile Building, The Powell Building and The American Thread Building.
