SAP claims capture of 21 Oracle customers
The battle between SAP and Oracle continues. SAP announced earlier this month that it signed up 21 new customers last quarter under its Safe Passage program, which provides incentives for Oracle customers to jump ship to SAP.
Datamonitor has a summary of SAP's most recent quarterly results.

Sarbanes-Oxley: stop the insanity
It's been about eight months since the internal control requirements (Section 404) of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act (SOX) first went into effect. Up to that deadline, and since then, SOX compliance has become a front-burner issue for the CIOs of publicly-held companies.
One can imagine that in some companies, the SOX compliance effort has uncovered serious deficiencies in internal controls that otherwise might have been found. If readers know if such cases I would love to hear about them, because from what I've seen and heard, SOX compliance has not been a meaningful exercise.
Automation seems to be taking a back seat to documentation. In the rush to build internal controls in time to meet SOX 404 deadlines, companies are creating reams of documentation on paper and in network folders. In some cases, processes that were automated prior to SOX are now being complemented by paper-intensive manual processes, just for the sake of generating audit trails.
- One company now requires the CFO to personally hand out payroll checks to its employees, instead of allowing the payroll manager to do so.
- Another company failed a SOX audit because auditors found that a sales rep only needed one signature instead of two to buy $15 worth of donuts for a client meeting.
- Or, how about this example from Eaton, a $9.8 billion manufacturer? Apparently, its auditors decided that Eaton was at risk from loss of a back up computer server. So, it designed internal controls that included "taking digital photographs of the smoke detector in a backup server closet...and sending the auditors receipts for the batteries."
Software vendors are quick to encourage the insanity, and will look to charge top dollar if they believe that compliance is the driving factor in the purchase of a particular product.
For example, a reader, who wishes to remain anonymous, gave me some insight on Virsa, a small vendor that provides software to enforces segration of duties within an ERP system (e.g. a user that is authorized to generate purchase orders should not also have rights to authorize vendor payments.) Virsa was content to sell its product last year for $75,000 to $100,000. But that was before they formed a partnership with SAP to resell Virsa's product. According to my source,SAP's U.S. reps now offer this exact same (and fairly basic) product for around one million dollars. Quite the cunning scam.So, what's the result of all these expenditures of time, money, and effort? Are financial reports of public companies much more trustworthy? Are business risks being better managed?
The funny thing is, as soon as SAP reps selling the Virsa product are asked by customers about competing products, the price drops, sometimes even down to zero, just to get the deal. But that's the point: SAP/Virsa rest their hopes on customers doing NO due diligence when purchasing compliance software. Instead they tout a close SAP relationship as key.
It's similar to rug dealers in Turkey who start at an absurdly high price in the hope of tricking an ignorant tourist into massive overpayments. The U.S. SAP reps must hope that a one million dollar line item on the bill will go unnoticed by CIOs with large budgets. But it's still a scam nevertheless.
The question is not trivial. Every dollar wasted on meaningless compliance is a dollar not spent taking real actions to mitigate real risks to the business.
According to Scott Powell at the Hoover Institute, the price is high.In practice, new initiatives have gone right out the door at many companies. Project after project has been postponed or canceled in order to focus on ensuring Sarbox compliance. William Zollars, CEO of Yellow Roadway, the largest trucker in the United States, says that "it requires an army of people to do the paperwork." In addition to diverting some 200 employees to work on Sarbox in the fourth quarter of 2004, Zollars spent $9 million — more than 3 percent of his firm's annual profit — on outside accountants and auditors. But Yellow Roadway may be getting off cheaply, as Business Week puts the average large-company compliance price tag at upward of $35 million.If you've got your own story of SOX insanities, please post a comment on this article, or email me.

Oracle reassures JDE resellers
At an Oracle JDE reseller meeting last week, Oracle's tri-President, Charles Phillips, tried to encourage J.D. Edwards resellers that Oracle means business in helping them to sell JDE to small and mid-sized businesses (SMBs).
But according to eWeek, some of the resellers aren't convinced.Resellers who attended the summit Thursday expressed concern about whether they would have a free hand to market their services to SMBs, despite assurances to the contrary.To be fair, Oracle is doing the JDE resellers a big favor by raising the bar that defines the market to which the resellers can deal, to companies under $500 million in annual revenue, up from $100 million last year. Interestingly, however, Oracle resellers of its E-Business Suite continue to operate under a $100 million bar. This means that when a JDE reseller goes after a prospect between $100 million and $500 million, there's a good chance it will be facing an Oracle direct sales rep.
In particular they want some assurances that they will get at least the same level of sales opportunities that they had before the PeopleSoft buyout.
The JDE resellers are concerned, no doubt, that when the Oracle direct sales force and a JDE reseller are in the same deal, the gloves may come off. At an executive breakfast with Charles Phillips earlier this year, I asked him about the potential for channel conflict. His response was that it would be the customer's choice as to which way the deal would go--a good response. But the real test will come when a few such scenarios materialize--how aggressively will Oracle allow the direct sales rep to discount versus the JDE reseller? I haven't seen such a scenario yet, but I'm sure I will within the next year.

Salesforce.com struggling at Cisco
It appears that Salesforce.com is having a bit of trouble in its biggest deal to date: a 10,000 user rollout for Cisco.
According to research firm JMP Securities, "our due diligence suggests that Cisco has only deployed 1,000 seats in the time that it had expected to deploy 10,000." Apparently there are problems with users embracing the system and issues with integration with other Cisco sales systems.
Adding insult to injury, JMP's research note also indicates that CRM leader Siebel is still a force to be reckoned with. Specifically, Siebel is working on a $30 million, 75,000 seat deal with a financial services institution where Siebel's own On-Demand offering will co-exist with or replace Salesforce.com.
Line56 has a report, and Computerworld has additional analysis.
CRM projects--especially large rollouts in large companies--are notoriously difficult. Gaining user acceptance and managing changes in desired behavior are particularly challenging. I have maintained in the past that the low initial cost and rapid implementation characteristics of software on-demand are particularly well-suited for CRM. But the problems of Salesforce.com at Cisco show that software on-demand is not a panacea.

Linux in a mission critical high transaction processing application
Anyone who thinks that Linux is not ready for mission-critical applications should read this article in CIO Magazine about the experience of Cendant Travel Distribution Services, the parent company of Orbitz and CheapTickets.com, and its CIO, Mickey Lutz.Lutz's IT group rewrote a complex, real-time airline pricing application that serves hundreds of thousands of travel agents around the world and that also acts as the system of record for all of United Airlines' ticket reservations. When this application came up on Linux, it proved to be so demanding—it handles up to 700 pricing requests per second—that it completely redefined Cendant's expectations about what it would take to get Linux to work. "We have broken every piece of software we've ever thrown at this platform, including Linux itself," says Lutz.Although there were some major bumps along the road, Lutz believes that the gamble on Linux was worth it. Cendant successfully converted the system from four IBM mainframes to a 12 server Linux cluster of 144 Intel boxes. The cost of the system dropped from $100 million to $2.5 million per year.
That has resulted in some scary moments, including an initial slowdown in the system that left United Airlines agents intermittently unable to access the reservation application (one outage lasted about 45 minutes) over the course of four days in July 2003. If you are United Airlines and move roughly 8,000 passengers per hour, you need the computers to work all the time. "Even a little downtime is a big deal," admits Lutz.
Interestingly, Lutz is no open source zealot. He "professes no interest in, nor understanding of, the mechanics of the open-source movement." It is "irrelevant to him, because the software can run his infrastructure, and he can buy enough support for it from vendors."

Oracle beefs up retail offerings with ProfitLogic bid
Earlier this year, Oracle made a strategic move deeper into the retail distribution industry by winning a bidding war with SAP for Retek, a niche vendor of retail management software. Now Oracle is adding to its retail presence by reaching a deal to acquire ProfitLogic. Terms of the deal are not disclosed.
ProfitLogic is one of a handful of vendors focusing on pricing and profit optimization, although many other terms are used. Essentially, these are analytic applications that analyze demand patterns and optimize pricing by SKU by selling location in order to optimize revenue and gross margins. The goal is to adjust prices downward where consumers are price sensitive, in order to increase volume, while raising or maintaining prices where consumers are not price-sensitive, in order to maximize margin. Deciding which SKU in which store is in which category is not a trivial exercise, and it is not always intuitive.
In the past, such decisions were made by retail buyers, who examined sales data and relied on gut feeling developed from long years of experience. But with the typical retailer managing thousands of SKUs over dozens of stores, an expert buyer can only deal with a fraction of the pricing decisions that need to be made in order to maximize revenue.
Retailers that have implemented these systems claim remarkable results in a short timeframe, making the ROI on these solutions very attractive. Yet, the market is fragmented, with niche vendors such as ProfitLogic, DemandTec, KhiMetrics, Manugistics, Spotlight, Connect3, and Vendavo competing in this space. Larger supply chain vendors have also added this functionality to their suites, as Manugistics did with its acquisition of Talus in 2000.
With the market for these solutions fragmented, and the ROI attractive, Oracle's bid for ProfitLogic might be the first of several in this space.

Computer Economics IS spending study now available
At Computer Economics, we've just finished our 16th annual Information Systems Spending and Technology Trends study. Although I've been using this study myself for several years, this is the first year that I've actually been involved in producing it.
It was quite a job: a six month effort based on our detailed survey of nearly 200 business and information systems executives in private industry and government regarding their level of IS spending, staffing, and technology utilization. This year's study includes 17 chapters with over 450 tables and charts of detailed statistics, broken down by industry sector and size of organization.
The study is used by individual corporations and government agencies to benchmark the spending, staffing, and performance of their own IS organizations. It is also used by major consulting firms as a source of industry benchmarking data.
You can order the FREE 20-page executive summary (Chapter 1), which includes a detailed analysis of the major trends that we found this year.

Oracle boasts strong growth in apps business
Oracle announced a 24% rise in revenue for its fourth quarter, which it attributed to its merger with PeopleSoft and strong growth across all product lines. Oracle reported revenue of $3.88 billion and a 3.2% rise in profits. North America license revenue was up 39%, and there was particular success in small and mid-size deals.
Although the numbers exceeded Wall Street expectations, they may not be as strong as they first appear. The reason is that Oracle refused to indicate how much revenue came from the Oracle side and how much came from the PeopleSoft side. Without that information, it's impossible to know the true growth rate until a quarter to quarter comparison can be done for the merged company--in other words, next June.
According to BusinessWeek, Oracle's revenue was actually slightly less than if Oracle and PeopleSoft had remained independent.
Tellingly, Oracle co-President Safra Catz said that it was "irrelevant" to separate out license revenue from sales of Oracle's products versus those of PeopleSoft. "We really merged the sales organization entirely," she said. "There are no PeopleSoft salesmen or Oracle salesmen."
Trust me: Oracle knows exactly how much of each product it sold. Why would it not want to talk about that? Since Oracle won't say, I'll speculate: sales of PeopleSoft products were weak and Oracle had to make it up on the Oracle side.
One problem that Oracle might be having is that during its fight for PeopleSoft, PeopleSoft was making huge discounts in order to keep its revenue numbers up. That would have pulled in deals from future periods, which drained the pipeline. I suspect that Oracle may have been doing a little bit of the same thing to get the results that it got last quarter. Oracle is normally more disciplined than most vendors in not rewarding prospects that wait to sign until the last day of the quarter. But I did hear that Oracle was offering some pretty aggressive discounts a couple of weeks ago.
Combine the drained pipeline with the natural wait-and-see attitude of PeopleSoft customers after the acquisition, and you can envision why sales on the PeopleSoft side might have been problematic. This might explain, in part, why Oracle was so interested in rebuilding and expanding the J.D. Edwards reseller channel earlier this year--to do anything it could to bolster the PeopleSoft side and thus justify the acquisition.
For Oracle and PeopleSoft users the message is clear: if you've been planning some additional license purchases, or implementing some additional modules, understand that Oracle might continue to be in the mood to deal. Name your price--you might be surprised.

Helpful and may be the most important concepts we want to get across. This is why we thought a bridge might be a good idea.
We are planning to advertise widely and to a variety of markets. We are starting out as working on bankruptcy, wills and trusts, real estate and personal injury. We plan on expanding those areas. We want the logo to really be representative to the core values we listed above.
The successful candidate will be the one that puts forth a logo that is classy, contemporary, unique, interesting and capable of capturing some of the concepts that were described above.

Doral SDL-A 195/55R16 87V BSW Tires
The Doral SDL-A tire is an inexpensive all-season passenger car tire that has long tread-life, grip on dry and wet roads, and even traction on ice and snow. The long tread-life is thanks to a hard rubber compound that resists wear due to frequent starts and stops in the city, as well as good resistance to wear due to heat when operating at higher speeds on the open highway. The tread pattern resists hydro-planing and gives good wet traction because of the wide circumferential center groove and high void ratio of the tread blocks that allows water to evacuate quickly from the contact patch.
For a cheap tire, the Doral SDL-A tire delivers very good handling and value for the money. It has a tread pattern and performance attributes that are comparable to far higher priced brands of tires. Most importantly, this tire will provide long tread-life. Remember to extend the life of your tires by checking your tire pressure at least once a month, and by rotating them at least twice a year. The correct air pressure for the tires on your vehicle can be found on the placard on the driver's side door post.

The tires have an excellent grip on rain, and they feel amazing on dry environment, it's worth to mention that compared to other tires these are super quiet. It feels like expensive Nikes on your car.. Theses remind me of some great falken tires I had a couple of years ago. You cannot go wrong with these tires, seriously.
Luis Xervantes
Great tires great value
We were looking for a quiet tire for our trips between Michigan and Florida. These tires are it!!

No problem with these tires
The tires have been wearing great and are doing fine glad we bought them
Great tires
I love the tires
I purchased these tires and installed them on a 2000 Pontiac sunfire. Over Christmas drove quite a few hundred miles in snow and I love them!
Great Tire with a Great Price.
Had these tires on the vehicle for about 50k miles, tires states a 45k tread warranty.....even after 50k the tire had life left in it. Tires rode smooth with no more then normal road noise. Good traction, overall a good tire and can't beat the price.
Zacch M
Great tires.
I love the design and also the ride,will buy the same kind again.
joe pereira
Great Tire!
Put aside cost, premium ride, quiet and smooth. Great grip. I'll buy again for both 2002 Mercedes Benz and 1998 Chevy Lumina. Big name tires have been a let down compared to Doral.....even in Vegas.
Travis. Las Vegas
So far so good
Has these on for 4 months now and seem to ride good. Not to much road noise. Do good in the rain. Not the greatest in the snow but ok. Over all I would recommend for the price so far.

These tires are amazing!! Worth every penny.
Highly recommend these Dorals, I have a Dodge Charger and these tires were originally on my car. Lasted 60,000 miles and still had more life on them. Bought 4 new ones for a little better traction, and I'm expecting to get another 60,000 out of them. I love these tires so much I got them for my wife's car as well! No problems with them. 5* all the way. Definitely worth the price!
Devin Marshall
These tires perform very well for a low cost option

These tires handle well on both wet and dry pavement. They are quiet and so far have worn very well. I put them on a older Subaru and love the traction they provide.
eBay buyer
great tread design
great tread design means no hydroplaneing silent running and good price,if I buy another Buick Riviera I will buy these same tire again

I bought these tires for my Durango. I've kept them rotated, and they are doing as good as any other tire would. I have no complaints. I use them on Highways, back county roads, and some off road during hunting season.
Great tires @ Great price
We are very pleased with these tires.
Tim M.
Great tires!!
I have about 5000 miles on these tires and they have been great. Price was great along with the shipping. Great company to deal with. Have them on my 2013 Kia Optima. Will buy again.
A great tire
Good ride and traction ,for the price it's hard to beat. Nice and rubbery round.
Aldo in NJ
Smooth ride
Great tires, good price. I put about 15,000 miles on them before my car's motor blew up. The guy that bought the car for parts thought they were brand new and didn't believe how many miles they had.
Great tires
These tires look good and drive well. Good traction on wet and snowy roads.
K Lockett
Best tires I've ever had.
I bought 4 brand new tires and they are the greatest tires I've ever had. They handle well in rain snow sleet. I'm usually afraid to drive in the snow but since I got these tires I am king of the road. They fit great on my van too. They also look great.
These tires are a great value
I've used three full sets (4 tires each set) and they are great!!! They normally last me 40K to 60K miles if you rotate every 10K. My 2011 Dodge charger has close to 300K and I've never had an issue or a flat.

Talk:List of games
I have added some native commercial games, and a respective wine section. ScannerDarkly 14:28, 29 December 2010 (EST)
Svenstaro, this page is about game listings. If you think it belongs here, could you add it to the end of the page? --Gen2ly 19:59, 2 December 2009 (EST)
I do believe that this info should be in front since the page is simply called "Games". A general info on games and playing games on Arch with possible issues would seem more appropriate to me than simply a list of games. Perhaps we can agree that an article with a general name as this one would contain some general info too. The article is not called "Game Listing" and thus some info apart from just a list of games should be here. The length of the list alone draws visual attention to it so what would be wrong with having general info for the user first? --Svenstaro 20:08, 2 December 2009 (EST)
Well, we do have a Common Applications, Lightweight Applications, possibly a Gaming Applications?? And then create a Gaming page with general overall information. Thing is, I couldn't really see enough information to really make an article of it. Any ideas? --Gen2ly 20:48, 2 December 2009 (EST)
I say we link to Wikipedia, an outgoing redirection for Lightweight and Games and keep Common. Three articles basically doing the same thing is ridiculous. Either that or we rename Common Applications to something more appropriate and stick everything in there. --Keiichi 20:56, 2 December 2009 (EST)
I have now added my stuff to the Gaming page. It will be improved and iterated on by me and other persons. It is obviously a stub for now. Keiichi, we weren't really discussing about the stuff you now hint at. Perhaps you should bring up this issue on the mailing list? I prefer the Arch application lists to wikipedia, for one. --Svenstaro 21:08, 2 December 2009 (EST)
Should game links be to existing ArchWiki pages (if they exist) instead of the actual homepage of the game? --Splex 15:27, 27 December 2009 (HKT)
I don't think so. It really shouldn't be necessary for a game to have its own wiki page and if it does it probably is an exception. Best we can do is link to both, homepage and wiki entry. I'd still go with homepage only, though. Which games have their own wiki pages on here? --Svenstaro 03:00, 27 December 2009 (EST)
I don't want to start an edit war wrt http://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php?title=Games&diff=116310&oldid=prev ,but http://wiki.winehq.org/Debunking_Wine_Myths#head-7c9ecddff60d8891414b68d74277244e7109eb says: "When users think of emulators, they think of programs like Dosbox or zsnes. These applications run as virtual machines and are slow, having to emulate each processor instruction. Wine does not do any CPU emulation - hence the name "Wine Is Not an Emulator."
Karol 00:11, 3 September 2010 (EDT)
- Simple. Wine Is Not an Emulator. -- pointone 02:27, 3 September 2010 (EDT)
- What is an emulator? An emulator is a means of running applications written for another system. Whatever they choose to call it, Wine IS an emulator. At least last time I checked windows programs were not native to linux. However, I will bow to the LCD collective. Nevarmaor 08:34, 3 September 2010 (EDT)
Turning into part of Common Applications
How about this: rename article to "Common Applications/Games", add all lists to Common Applications and everything not directly related to lists – to Gaming. Interlink resulting list with Gaming and Netbook Games (which I still would like to improve to state when it can be really useful). --AlexanderR 08:39, 16 January 2012 (EST)
- Sounds like a good plan. Please try to maintain a brief summary of your edits in Talk:Common_Applications#Summary_of_related_changes. -- Kynikos 10:49, 17 January 2012 (EST)
- Common Applications is getting pretty long. Was there already a discussion about chopping it into subpages? -- Karol 10:52, 17 January 2012 (EST)
- It's already chopped, I think all the related discussions are in Talk:Common Applications. I like the fact that we can have a comprehensive ToC in Common Applications, but then be able to get to the needed subpage with the navigation template. -- Kynikos 11:06, 17 January 2012 (EST)
- Ah, indeed. I think I expected a tip like in Beginners'_Guide ;P -- Karol 11:22, 17 January 2012 (EST)
- We can't write exactly the same tip, if you already have something in mind just write it down in Talk:Common Applications ;) -- Kynikos 15:23, 17 January 2012 (EST)
- Ah, indeed. I think I expected a tip like in Beginners'_Guide ;P -- Karol 11:22, 17 January 2012 (EST)

Moving all commercial games into separate article
Commercial games are important and should be covered by this Wiki, but they tend to acquire separate sections in both this article and Netbook Games. Most commercial games are not even packaged in AUR, which means that general App template can not be applied. If no objections follow I will perform splitting soon. --AlexanderR 20:32, 16 January 2012 (EST)
- I've not understood what the result of the split will be. -- Kynikos 10:52, 17 January 2012 (EST)
- >>I've not understood what the result of the split will be
- I guess, everything will result in splitting "Games" into several pieces, included into single article, like it was done with Common Applications. Unlike any other software, games tend to be developed in unlimited quantities, so such splitting seems to be reasonable. Also help with development of cool classification template is greatly apperciated :]! --AlexanderR 08:43, 21 January 2012 (EST)
- Finished --AlexanderR

If you are quite confused on what to do when buying the best pillow for snoring online, the first thing that you should take consideration is the quality. There are numerous anti-snoring pillows available nowadays and each has its own unique selling proposition. If you want to use the pillow for a longer time, you had better find a product that is created with a sturdy material and is built to last. Try to read a lot about the manufacturer and how they make their pillow. Read different product reviews and never make a decision if you are doubtful. This will just lead you to nothing; that is why, be sure to get the best pillow at a good quality.
Test also the comfort that the pillow offers. If it is something awkward or essentially uncomfortable to use, better try another one. Make sure that the company can provide a money back guarantee or product replacement in case there are defects or you decided not to have the product after all. Above all, always work with your budget in buying the best pillow for snoring so that it will not be a total waste of time and money in the long run.
Find Yourself The Right Stop Snoring Mouthpiece
There are actually a number of ways to find the right stop snoring mouthpiece. There certainly are quite a few on the market, including the ZQuiet, which is reviewed here. However, the first thing you should do is research. You have to research carefully the possible sources of these mouthpieces in order to determine which company offers the best quality at a good price. There are numerous websites or companies offering almost the same stop snoring mouthpieces but, with careful analysis, you can definitely have the right one for your needs. Make sure that you do not only consider your own convenience but you also consider the opinions of other individuals who have experience with these anti snoring devices. Take some time to read different online reviews on these mouthpieces and weigh the pros and cons in all information you get. This is not an easy process but it will certainly lead you to the right product.
Nevertheless, you can also have the best mouthpiece if you ask a medical professional about this. Usually, they are familiar with the best mouthpiece to stop your snoring episodes so you can always consider their opinions. Do not be eager to purchase a stop snoring mouthpiece if you have not read a lot of positive reviews about it and the features are not great enough to accommodate your needs.

1991 Cadillac Brougham
Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?)
Excellent Speakers I would highly recommend them. I replace Infinity Kappa and these sound much better although the Infinity Kappa's had a higher db ratio, the Focal's sound much clearer, cleaner, & much louder volume.
Pros: Great clarity at max. Volume
Cons: NONE

As a general rule, oxygen and wine don't mix. While some contact is not a problem, prolonged exposure to oxygen can cause negative changes in the color and bouquet of wine. If you are going to store an already opened bottle of wine, it is recommended that you infuse the bottle with an inert gas or else use a device to remove the oxygen from the bottle.

Apple makes more money than any other company save those with oligopoly control of limited fossil fuel resources, yet they're perpetually punished by Wall Street and called doomed by financial-not-really-analysts. Amazon has seldom made a dime on paper and yet they're the darling of Wall Street and can do no wrong with market makers. Yet both are among the most successful companies in recent history. Why the difference? Benedict Evens on Twitter:
Amazon manages net income to zero the way Tim Cook manages inventory to zero
MG Siegler on TechCrunch:
The goal is actually to not make a huge profit too early, and Bezos manages it perfectly. You want to avoid showing your cards too early as you continue to lay the groundwork for an ever-larger business. Occasionally, you'll have to show those cards and win a hand to prove that you can. But the rest of the time you call and fold, as you await the monster to take the entire pot.
John Gruber on Daring Fireball:
The key to Bezos's genius, though, is in how he's set the expectations from Amazon's investors. They're seemingly all on board with this strategy, and, in return, this permission to run at break-even has made Amazon impossible for need-to-turn-a-profit businesses to compete with. That's what makes Amazon "the anti-Apple", as MG writes. Apple is a formidable competitor because it's so massively profitable; Amazon is a formidable competitor because it has permission — even encouragement — from its investors to run the operation at break-even.
On the surface it appears to be nothing more nor less than a riff on the old "perception is reality". Amazon has brilliantly set expectations to the point where they can, so far, operate with impunity when it comes to their stake holders. The potential for profit is so much more compelling than profit alone, that everyone is willing to mortgage today in hopes of tomorrow.
Apple, meanwhile, has failed to - or doesn't care to - set expectations from stake holders so they're punished for success, and the money they generate in the present is meaningless to a market whose eyes are always fixed on the future.
In other words, Amazon is giving up profit to offer great prices, Apple is making profit by offering great products. And the financial world appreciates the former far more than the latter.
It's tough to compete with Apple on product experience, but other companies are doing it. It's even tougher to compete with Amazon on price, and it doesn't seem like they're slowing down. If Apple vs. the DOJ is any indication, breaking Amazon's hold on prices won't be easy either.

In front of the theatre and the neighboring Chilton Paint Co., advertisements for Victor Hugo's "The Main Who Laughs" are posted on a telephone booth. Further on in the left side of the frame, beyond the U.S. Post Office and Customs Building, one can make out signs for various cafes and pharmacies. Among them are Arcadia Lunch and a Western Union. Alongside a few parked cars, multiple retail stores are visible on the right side of the street. At the corner of Church St., a sign reading, "SWEET SHOP" hangs off of building with the corner of City Hall visible in the background. Several vehicles are parked on the street. Wide sidewalks can be seen on each side of the street. Pedestrian crosswalk lines are pained in the street. Utility lines can be seen running overhead. Street-lamps can be seen all the way down Main St. Elm trees can be see in the background on the right side of the image. Mary VanBuren-Swasey writes on 2009-03-10: Correct date is Oct 19, 1929.

Not quite ready to say goodbye to "Breaking Bad?" Neither is the show's assistant editor, Sharidan Williams-Sotelo. And to express her love of the dearly departed series, she has shot a short video featuring an ice skating tribute to the AMC series titled "Breaking Ice."
The video, which runs just over six minutes, features such segments as "Elegy for Jane" (Jesse Pinkman's girlfriend whom Walter White allowed to die in the show's second season), "Whitman's Men" (named after the favorite poet of Gale Boetticher, Walt's protege) and "Ionic Bonds," featuring Walt, Jesse and Gale look-alikes skating in yellow haz-mat suits.
INTERACTIVE: 'Breaking Bad' parodies
Ice skating legend Richard Dwyer plays Saul Goodman, the shady lawyer played by Bob Odenkirk in the series.
It was shot early last year in a Southern California ice skating rink, but has only now emerged. Don't worry about spoilers, since it was shot before Vince Gilligan had even written the series finale.
Williams-Sotelo got a bit of recognition earlier this year for cutting the ominous promo for "Breaking Bad's" finale run of episode, which featured star Bryan Cranston reading Percy Bysshe Shelley's poem "Ozymandias" over shots of the New Mexico desert. While this tribute is considerably lighter, it still gets under the skin in the same way.

Classify this one under horror, zombie, big budget, Brad Pitt. In plot and back story, it's another retread of "Day of the Dead," "28 Days Later," "I Am Legend" and a zillion others.
After bubbling under our radar in several isolated regions, the zombie plague apparently reaches critical mass and descends everywhere. Pitt is a retired U.N. inspector living in Philadelphia (which Glasgow imitates admirably). He reluctantly joins old co-workers in trying to trace the infection, while also desperately attempting to reunite with his wife and two kids.
Marc Forster's adaptation of Max Brooks's best seller — written for the screen by Matthew Michael Carnahan, Drew Goddard, Damon Lindelof and J. Michael Straczynski — deals with the book's film-unfriendly episodic structure by having everything happen to Pitt. As a result, it often feels disjointed.
Paramount's Blu-ray looks and sounds great. The transfer is so clean that there are moments that flew by on the big screen but now seem blatantly CGI. The extras are minimal, guaranteeing a deluxe edition down the road. The DVD — both on its own and in either of the combination packages — has the theatrical cut and no supplements. The combo editions are identical to each other except for the presence of the 3D version in one. The Blu-ray in those two combo packs has about an hour of talking-head and behind-the-scenes shorts. It also has the "extended cut," which is about seven minutes longer than the original. I didn't spot any missing scenes, just extra violence expanding certain sequences.
"World War Z" (Paramount Home Entertainment, Blu-ray, Blu-ray 3D, and DVD, $49.99; Blu-ray 3D/Blu-ray/DVD combo pack, $39.99; DVD, $29.99)

So clearly he knows the reason and he just wants to make a dumb little observational point, and yeah, observational humor is about people recognizing the truth in the observation but how many people are going to really say "ha ha, yeah, that bugged me too!, why the hell did they name it that way?"
One person who didn't laugh is frequent commenter Amanda, who e-mailed me shortly after this comic went up to say how much it bothered her. To quote -
What bothers me is that the Randall fans are like WOW I have once thought this very same thought and am remembering it now and oh it is just so funny to remember how stupid this concept is and since I identify with this comic I shall call it funny and Randall remains God so PLEASE GET OUT OF MY HEAD RANDALL. Okay. Perhaps that brief moment in which you learned that the "east" and "west" that were relative to your location in the Americas ARE NOT THE SAME as the ones that apply to "The East" and "The West," you may have chuckled briefly and thought, wow how silly. But I assumed everyone else, like me, eventually did get over it because we all realized that the coiners of these two names did not know of the Americas. I suck at geography and history and whatever, and I'm a stickler for accurate names but I got over it. And the observation itself is not that funny. At least, for me, not comic-writing funny. TELL ME RANDALL WHERE IS THE HUMOR.
What all this reminds me of is, unsurprisingly, a Dinosaur comic. Click it for more readability.
click it for a version you can actually read
this corrected version of my original was made by cow_2001

I'd never tried Vietnamese food before I came to the United States. There was no Vietnamese restaurant in my hometown and Vietnamese cuisine had never crossed my mind.
Then, Thai food was the only exotic food I knew.
I first tasted Vietnamese food when I was attending graduate school in the Midwest.
Stuck in the middle-of-no-where AKA Fargoland, Vietnamese food was a treat to my taste buds. I loved the familiar southeast Asian flavors: the noodle dishes, the steaming hot pho, the rice plates, the fresh bean sprouts, herbs, mint leaves, and oh yeah, fish sauce.
Vietnamese food reminded me of the tastes of home–well, not quite, but they were close. It was comfort food back then and I gradually fell in love with Vietnamese cuisine.
Chao tom, or Vietnamese sugar cane shrimp is one of the appetizer dishes that I absolutely adore.
While I always order them at restaurants, I have never attempted to make chao tom at home until recently. I got myself some fresh sugar cane and adapted my recipe of tau hu ky (shrimp paste with bean curd skin) and deep-fried them.
(The traditional way of making sugar cane shrimp or chao tom is grilling.)
The sweet thing about making these chao tom (sugar cane shrimp) at home was that I could wrap as much shrimp paste around the sugar cane as possible, so every bite was a mouthful of delicious and springy shrimp paste. Yum!

Afteroom Chair 3
The first Menu chair ever is a three-legged one, and it's the result of deconstructing an item, piece by piece, with the purpose of obtaining an original design.
"The Afteroom Chair is an homage to Bauhaus and functionalism. The simplicity of its design combined with the quality of materials is what's important. We embraced the challenge of designing something minimalist with clean lines, without in any way compromise its comfort. In that sense we've looked towards classic Scandinavian features as inspiration", says Hung-Ming.
The rounded details such as the seat and flexible back support, both in wood, contrast the solid steel frame. And when looking at the chair, it's difficult to differentiate what is what, due to the designers' attention to detail
Menu 首次製造的椅子兩位才華橫溢的年輕台灣設計師 Hung-Ming Chen 與 Chen-Yen Wei 組成的 Afteroom 所設計,Afteroom 椅子已經連續幾代,包括 三腳的 Afteroom 餐椅,吧椅,餐桌等。Afteroom 系列是簡約主義和簡潔的線條的挑戰
一張好的簡約設計椅子需要線條簡潔,但無損害其舒適性。Hung-Ming Chen 說:「在這個意義上,我們以經典的北歐設計為靈感。 例如圓形的細節,座椅和靈活的背部支撐;木材與鋼框的對比等,都是體現北歐好設計。這些都是設計師對細節特別關注
Afteroom 系列,運用了同樣的概念 - 是向 Bauhaus 設計與功能性設計致敬,一方面將材料用量降到最低,同時並提高美學到最大值

Hudson Falls Gluten-Free and Dietetic Cakes
There's a new gluten-free bakery in the North Country, Hudson Falls Cakes, operated by Kathy LaPan out of her home. Kathy specializes in custom orders, like special occasion decorated cakes and other goodies. With personal experience in gluten-free baking for her celiac grandmother and in sugar-free baking for herself (she's a diabetic), Kathy is a specialist in "digestible comestibles", as she describes it on her website. Kathy notes that she can also whip up milk/casein-free, peanut-free, egg-free, and other allergen-free sweets , so if you are looking for a fancy cake for a special birthday, anniversary or wedding, check out her website or give her a call at (518) 747-4854.
Hudson Falls Cakes will be offering samples of their baked goods at the August 5th meeting of the Glens Falls Celiac Association at Glens Falls Hospital at 6:30 pm, so plan to attend if you would like to speak with Kathy in person and see what kinds of goodies she can whip up.

TGI Monday: Brocade profits up, Scality and Tegile fattening up
Not all that glitters is gold, but storage sure is pretty right now
Tracking storage supplier and association news is like standing underneath a waterfall; you get deluged. Of course, the main stories stand out but there are lots of others that are worthy of note.
In alphabetic order we have:
- Fibre Channel and Ethernet switch networking vendor Brocade announced strongly profitable results for its first fiscal 2014 quarter. $565m revenues were up on the prior quarter's $559m but down on the year-ago quarter's $589m. Profits were $81m. They were $64m last quarter ago and contrast strongly with the $21m loss announced a year ago.
- Overall Brocade revenues are flatlining at the $2.25bn annual level over the past three years. Where is the company going in the face of a maturing Fibre Channel market and intense competition from Ethernet gorilla Cisco and other Ethernet product suppliers?
- Analyst Jason Ader of William Blair wrote: "We expect Fibre Channel will be a shrinking market over the next several years. We applaud the new CEO and management's strong operational execution, as well as management's shareholder-friendly attitude ... However, the implication of four consecutive quarters of year-over-year revenue declines—and continued expectations of such—is inescapable and invariably drives our long-term view. ... Ultimately, the company will need to demonstrate that it is more than a cost-cutting story and is capable of growing the top line."
- Diablo Technologies has achieved VMware Ready status for its MCS (Memory Channel Storage). This is the heart of the ULLtraDIMM technology - flash with DDR3 DIMM interface - produced by SanDisk's SMART Storage unit and OEM'd by IBM for its X6 servers.
- Egnyte, an enterprise-focussed file sync'n'share startup, is expanding into Europe and says it has an answer to European privacy concerns, fuelled by the activities of the NSA (and the UK's GCHQ). The company is set to IPO in 2015.
- Exablox is floating high with HGST's 6TB helium-filled Ultrastar He6disk drives which it's put inside its OneBlox appliance. It says it has the best cost/TB in the industry. Customers buy the drives and populate the box themselves, adding the 6TB drives alongside lower-capacity ones, such as 4TB drives. Scale-out OneBlox has an global object file system using a ring of nodes. Maximum node capacity goes up from c200TB to 300TB with, we think, 48 drive slots per node.
- The FCIA has announced a Gen 6 32Gbit/s Fibre Channel (32 GFC) standard, doubling - of course - the present fastest Fibre Channel speed available, 16Gbit/s. Products may arrive in 2016. There's an n option to quadruple 32 GFC to 128GFC throughput.
- Seemingly perennial loss-making Overland Storage announced (what else?) another loss-making quarter, but things are looking up. The ugly news is that revenues in its second fiscal 2014 quarter were $10.6m, the same as the previous quarter and $2m less than a year ago. There was a loss of $4.3m, marginally better than the first quarter's $4.6m loss, and the same as a year ago.
- On the rosy side of things it's merged/taken over Tandberg Data, giving it "critical mass for profitability" - we'll believe that when we see it and be mightily relieved when it happens. Also, the Sphere3D relationship is getting stronger (Overland CEO Eric Kelly is chairman of Sphere3D's board) with Sphere3D's acquisition of V3 Systems Inc.
- V3 Systems' products include Desktop Cloud Orchestrator software, which allows administrators to manage local, cloud-hosted, or hybrid virtual desktop deployments, and a V3 Appliance; a series of purpose-built, compact, efficient and easy-to-manage servers. So now Overland us getting into VDI - who isn't?
- Oxygen Cloud has made a beta version of its odrive product available. It's a new take on file sync'n'share, achieving generalised file access by tacking a gateway onto a file server. The company says "odrive provides the easiest way to connect any user to existing Windows, Mac and Linux file servers." No files are sent to the cloud. The "odrive [product] installs on your file servers, lets you invite people with a simple email, and connects users with all the content they need, right on their desktops." Sign up for the beta at www.odrive.com.
- Object storage startup Scality wants us to know that 2013 was a year of significant business and product expansion, with year-over-year bookings growth of 500 per cent, the addition of twelve major customers, significant product enhancements broadening the range of applications for Scality's RING, major industry recognition, and a $22m Series C investment.
- Tegile, one of the three pumped up hybrid flash/disk array startups, saw a 300 per cent year-over-year revenue increase for its Zebi products. It says it has "a significant number of Tegile users becoming repeat customers, ordering multiple units." Its corporate HQ has moved to a larger office in Newark, Ca.
- Tegile has also added FlashVols to its MASS architecture. These "are volumes that are pinned in SSD so applications run at maximum performance without the potential delay due to caching algorithms or tiering policies."
- Tintri, another thrusting hybrid array startup, has gained $75m in its Series E funding round. Total capital raised is now $135m and Tintri says it's on track for an IPO:
- "The funding will accelerate continued global expansion and technology innovation as well as help the company further scale operations and support its rapidly growing customer base. ... Since launch, Tintri has consistently exceeded triple digit growth year over year ... The company completed 2013 with 115 per cent year over year growth while more than doubling its enterprise customer base worldwide. ... close to 70 per cent of Tintri customers made repeat purchases averaging 2.5x of their initial order."
- Solidfire's all-flash array has been verified as Citrix Ready for Citrix XenDesktop. This builds on last November's announcement of support for VMware VDI.
- VMware hypervisor cacher PernixData announced its support for VMware vSphere 5.5 and vSphere Web Client. It also announced PernixDrive, a technology alliance program that brings vendors together for advancing server-based flash storage architectures.
- WD, the twin to HGST in the overall Western Digital company, has announced version 10.2 of its Arkeia network backup software, featuring scalability improvements in its Progressive Deduplication technology. It reclaims orphaned deduplication blocks incrementally without needing a dedicated maintenance window.

A male or female that not only happens to be very good-looking, but also has a high quota of intelligence, whether they display it openly or not. Usually mistaken for a Bimbo at first until a high degree education or mental prowess is accidentally or purposefully revealed.
"It seems I misjudged her. I took her for a complete air-head when we first met because she's so good-looking and ditsy, but it appears she has a first degree in law. A Bimbollectual, who'd have thought it."

Community Standards
For security, legal and social reasons, there are time-proven community standards for you and your guests (for whom you are responsible). Violations of these standards can result in disciplinary action and forfeiture of your housing assignment.
- Don't drink or possess alcoholic beverages if you're underage.
- Don't drink alcoholic beverages in any public area on campus.
- Don't smoke on campus.
- Room visitation of the opposite sex is allowed, but cohabitation is not.
- All visitors must be escorted.
Shared Space Roommate Agreement
Before you arrive, you and your roommate will need to talk over who is bringing what, so you can reduce the number of space-taking things (such as TV, microwave, fan). Their contact information will be in your assignment letter. After you get to UNI, you will also need to talk about the similarities and differences in your preferences for sharing your space together. This includes things like study habits, frequency of friends in the room and room cleanliness.
Because sorting out preferences between roommates is so important, your RA will arrange with both of you a time to share what you have worked out as your agreement for living together. That agreement, "Shared Space", will be in writing. Each of you and the RA will keep a copy in case it's necessary to refer back in the months ahead. The process of identifying and agreeing on ways to live together will be the most important part of your roommate agreement. Refer to this handy Roommate Guide for tips on how to adjust to living with your new roommate.
Three keys to coping with homesickness are understanding, involvement and patience. First, understand that change is almost always difficult and that you are going through a huge change. Second, get involved. Engagement in the social and academic parts of your life is essential to making the adjustment. You have a lot to offer, but you need to expose yourself to different arenas in which you can make contributions. Third, be patient with yourself, people here, people at home and this new place. Pay attention to these three things and you'll eventually have two places -- here and home -- where you feel like you belong.
Also, remember that you can talk about how things are going with your RA. Sometimes, it just helps to have someone else to listen and provide some advice.
Room Changes
The most frequent reason for room change requests are initial feelings of incompatibility with a roommate. These usually disappear when at least one roommate makes efforts to communicate and negotiate such things as when guests can be in the room, cleanliness, bed times and sharing/borrowing possessions. Take the initiative to talk about these things with your roommate - early on. Almost all roommate relationships can be successful, but only with genuine effort. If you'd like help with this, ask your RA for ideas. But, most of all, be the roommate who tries to communicate caringly and honestly, as early in the relationship as possible. Remember, your roommate is new to this too. So be patient.
You may request a room change through your Residence Life Coordinator once you have arrived. Changes depend on availability of rooms. Most will not happen until after the first two weeks of classes.
Things to Consider
Please contribute to the quality of life in your community.
- Hallways, bathrooms and lounges are quiet areas after 10 p.m. and before 8 a.m.
- Keep entrances clean.
- Don't prop outside doors open for strangers to get in.
- Always lock your door when you leave your room and when you're sleeping.
- When conflicts arise, try to resolve them by talking with people, not about them.
