World's Best Boutique Hotels
We scoured the globe until we found the 31 best new hotels for under $150.
A night at the two-room Millers64 is like visiting your cool cousins. Sisters Shona and Louise Clelland bought and renovated an 1890s row house last summer, taking care to retain details like the turquoise tiles framing the fireplace. Inspired by their 11 years of living and traveling in Malaysia and Thailand, the Clellands added accents such as pewter washbasins from Phuket. Louise uses local ingredients for her Scottish breakfasts, which feature homemade apricot jam. The sisters live on the third floor with their mom, Sally, and are happy to point you to their favorite sites, like Holyrood Palace. millers64.com, from $133 with breakfast.
The glass-paneled Lánchíd 19 hotel embraces its location right on the Danube River. At night, the façade comes alive with a colorful light installation, and the rooms on floors four to seven offer unobstructed views of the river. Named after the Chain Bridge, the 2-year-old hotel also has a transparent lobby floor, which allows you to see the excavated remains of a medieval water tower below. Fun design elements are sprinkled throughout the 48 rooms: a magnetic chessboard mounted on a wall, or a platform bed separated from an orange-tiled bathroom by a sliding glass door. designhotels.com/lanchid, from $101.
The Circus Hotel in the Mitte district is the grown-up alternative to a popular hostel that shares its name, just across the square. The 60 individually designed rooms have blue, tangerine, lime, or hot-pink accents, and all have dark-oak floors and flea-market finds like vintage glass vases. The organic restaurant, Fabisch, is named after the family that once owned the 19th-century building. Netbooks and iPods preloaded with local artists like German indie rockers Sportfreunde Stiller are on loan at the front desk. circus-berlin.de, from $111.

Kui Buri, Thailand
Impersonal tropical resorts are a dime a dozen in Thailand, which is why X2 Kui Buri is so refreshing: The staff greets you by name, and chefs are happy to go off-menu and customize meals. The first of four resorts in a growing regional chain, X2 Kui Buri has 23 villas spread across four acres of virgin beachfront on the Gulf of Thailand. Each villa has a terrace and garden, and most have a private pool. The exposed rock in the walls was mined from local quarries, and a peaceful walkway connects the rooms to the pool, the open-air restaurant, and the beach, where candlelit dinners complement the fiery sunsets. x2resorts.com, from $148 with breakfast.
Siem Reap, Cambodia
Most guests come to see the Angkor Wat ruins about four miles away, but the experience of staying at Viroth's Hotel is itself a historic treat: The property is in one of the few remaining examples of New Khmer Architecture, a modernist style that thrived here in the 1960s. Two years ago, owners Kol Viroth and Fabien Martial converted the boxy, two-story villa into a seven-room boutique hotel with a saltwater pool, a rooftop hot tub, and an open-air spa. Each of the rooms has a beige duvet covering a white queen-size platform bed, a woven mat on the gray Khmer tile floor, and dark-brown drapes that open onto a private balcony. viroth-hotel.com, from $90 with breakfast.
Owner Pylin Jane Sanguanpiyapand grew up in a family that has sold Sherwin-Williams paint in Thailand for decades, so it makes sense that the 31-year-old went color crazy in 2007 when creating the Seven hotel. The six guest rooms each use distinctive shades of yellow, pink, green, orange, blue, and purple in the bedding and murals. A red-themed communal space serves as the seventh room, an all-purpose reception area, bar, art gallery, and breakfast nook. sleepatseven.com, from $88 with breakfast.

Hanoi, Vietnam
The fact that the year-old Maison d'Hanoi Hanova Hotel lies in the Old Quarter is both a design challenge and opportunity. The newly built 55-room structure occupies a "tube house"—a traditional type of architecture with a narrow 19-foot-wide façade—requiring a resourceful use of space. Skylights, circular mirrors, and silk lamps maximize airiness, while the redwood floors, scarlet walls, and gray-silk headboards lend an authentic old-world feel. Double-glazed windows help block out the motorbike traffic below, and the city's best tailors are steps away on Hang Gai, or Silk Street. hanovahotel.com, from $140 with breakfast.

A dope stoner is someone who smokes dope (meth, crack) without feining for it. As if they were just smoking weed. Not a common breed, seeing as most people that smoke dope are fiends.
"That fool packed a gram in the pipe, took only one hit and let the rest of us smoke it all! Like it really didn't even matter!"
"Yeah, I heard that fool what was a strait dope stoner."

SAP reported record fourth-quarter results that beat its own as well as market expectations, pushing up the shares of Europe's biggest software group by sales.
The German group's operating margin rose to 39 per cent in the last three months of the past year, higher than the 35.5 per cent reported in the fourth quarter of 2009. The news triggered a 3.5 per cent jump of SAP's share price to €40.40 late on Thursday.
The reaction came as relief to SAP's management after several setbacks in the past few months. In November, the world's largest business software maker by sales was forced to pay $1.3bn plus interest in damage claims in a copyright infringement verdict, which followed a lukewarm response to the group's third-quarter results the month before.
Bill McDermott, SAP's co-chief executive, said: "We are pleased to announce the best software sales quarter in the history of SAP. We achieved outstanding growth in all regions and customer segments."
SAP said its full-year revenues rose by 17 per cent year on year to €12.45bn. Its full-year operating profit, reported in non-IFRS standards, came in at more than €3.9bn, pushing its operating margin from 27.4 per cent in 2009 to 31.5 per cent.
Revenue from software and software-related services, reported in non-IFRS standard and excluding currency effects, grew by 13 per cent, exceeding the group's 9-11 per cent target.
SAP's strong results reflected a boost in the software market in the past year as companies in emerging markets, the US and parts of Europe splashed out to underpin their economic recovery. It followed similarly upbeat results by Oracle, the group's US-based arch-rival, in the past quarter.
"These are really good numbers," said Thomas Becker, analyst at Commerzbank.
SAP took some of the gloss of the results when it warned that the copyright infringement verdict in the US would have a "significant negative impact" on its – yet to be announced - operating result under IFRS.
Last November, Oracle successfully sued SAP for illegally downloading its software. The damage award from the court battle is eight times higher than the $160m provision that SAP had previously made in its balance sheet.
SAP has not yet made a decision whether it would appeal against the verdict. It said in November that it was "considering all options".

Oprah Winfrey Finally Comments on Paula Deen's N-Word Controversy
Oprah Winfrey befriended Paula Deen when she interviewed the butter-loving cook for an episode of "Oprah's Next Chapter" in March 2012. The former talk show host even spent the night at Deen's Georgia home, where the women discussed everything from Deen's financial insecurities to her diabetes diagnosis.
PHOTOS: Memorable moments from 'The Oprah Winfrey Show'
More than a year later, in a videotaped deposition, Deen admitted to once using the N-word in the past. The 66-year-old Southerner was subsequently fired by the Food Network and lost multiple endorsement deals. Until recently, Winfrey had remained silent on her friend's latest controversy.
"In the very first days I tried to reach her, and then I decided to stay out of it as I saw it blowing up," Winfrey, 59, tells "Entertainment Tonight." "In time she will be fine. For me, it all just felt kind of sad."
PHOTOS: Celebrity chef scandals
Winfrey believes people need to let the "dust settle" before they can have a "real conversation" about racism in today's world. While the TV titan hasn't been subjected to racial epithets in years, she has experienced racism in the workplace.
"Nobody in their right mind is going to call me the N-word. You know, you see those fools on Twitter sometime say ridiculous things. But nobody in their right mind is going to do that to my face, because true racism is being able to have power over somebody else," Winfrey explains. "So that doesn't happen to me that way."
PHOTOS: Oprah Winfrey's hair evolution
"The Butler" star continues, "It shows up for me if I'm in a boardroom or situations where I'm the only woman or I'm the only African American person within a hundred mile radius. I can see in the energy of the people there, they don't sense that I should be holding one of those seats. I can sense that. But I can never tell, 'Is it racism? Is it sexism?'"
PHOTOS: Inside Oprah Winfrey's $85 million mansion
When asked to comment about Deen during an interview with "Extra," Winfrey laughed but declined to say anything more about the disgraced TV personality. "Oh my god! I don't have anything to do with Paula Deen," she insisted. "She is not the first white lady to use the N-word! Good lord!"

Buckeyes Fall to Michigan 76-74
It was the epic battle that all fans would hope for. A classic that was almost suited more for the football field than the hardwood, the Buckeyes and Wolverines certainly went at it on Tuesday night.
In a weird contradiction, a game that featured great defense also featured some big scoring from both sides. For Michigan, the playmakers came out and hit shots from beyond the arc. Tim Hardaway Jr. was 6-9, Trey Burke finished 5-7, freshman Nick Stauskas dropped 3-5, and Glenn Robinson III was 1-3 from behind the arc. Accounting for 45 of their 76 points, the three pointers doomed the Buckeyes in the end.
It was a bit of a breakout night for Aaron Craft and LaQuinton Ross on the offensive side for Ohio State. In 23 minutes on the floor, Ross accounted for 16 points on 7-10 shooting, including 2-2 from the three point line. Ross has certainly been an enigma all season, yet showed what he is capable of against the Wolverines. Craft had a memorable day until the final minute or so in overtime. Craft finished with 11 points on 5-12 shooting, including an incredibly long three point attempt with the shot clock winding down. Of course, Craft's defense was truly the difference in his game. He ended up with 3 steals and countless defensive pressures that forced Michigan into turnovers.
The game was certainly a nail biter that featured quite a few major moments. First and foremost, Lenzelle Smith Jr. drained a shot with about 30 seconds left to tie the game, forcing a last-second fadeaway three from Trey Burke that nearly went down. In overtime, the action wasn't as eventful. Both squads were unable to make a big bucket to put the game away. Michigan hit a three for the first points of overtime, and wouldn't score again until they hit a free throw with seven seconds left in the half. Aaron Craft put the game within a point with one minute left and subsequently forced Trey Burke into a turnover. He then went on to take a jumper right in front of the free throw line that was blocked. After Glenn Robinson missed his second free throw, Craft took the ball down the court, was hit with some contact by Tim Hardaway Jr., was unable to put up a shot, and the Wolverines came away with the victory.
The man who was on the top of the minds of all Buckeyes after the game was DeShaun Thomas. Where, oh where, did old DeShaun go? He didn't touch the ball in overtime after scoring 17 points in regulation. Sure, he was 6-15 from the field, not his best night, but when the game is on the line, you have to get the ball to your playmaker.
The Buckeyes are slowly, but surely, getting there. LaQuinton Ross and Aaron Craft have finally lived up to their roles, but DeShaun has to get more involved. There needs to be more balance. When DeShaun is making all the shots, LaQuinton and Craft are nowhere to be found. Wfhen Q and Aaron are doing their job, they don't seem to get the ball to DeShaun enough. I have faith that the Buckeyes are going to find this balance sooner, rather than later, and are going to be a tough team to beat in March.
You never want to lose to That Team Up North, but when you do, you want them to be a great team. Certainly, the Michigan Wolverines are a great team this season, as much as it may annoy us. Tonight, their shots were falling like water, and even with their incredible shooting percentage, the Buckeyes were able to stay in the game, and probably should have won it.
For Ohio State, the next game is against Indiana on Sunday, in Columbus. Michigan just came off of a loss to IU in Bloomington before beating the Buckeyes on their home floor. It will be very interesting to see what Ohio State can do against the #1 team in the nation. Remember that Michigan was ranked #1 when the Buckeyes beat them in Columbus, so it's certain that Ohio State can beat #1 again.

Hey guess what? While you weren't looking, while you were paying attention to the election and to taxes and bizarre behavior by President Obama, the democratic congress passed the "Healthy, Hunger-Free Kids Act" because as Michelle Obama says, "We can't just leave it up to the parents."
Making sure kids eat right that is. Now with this legislation becoming law, the feds have the power to regulate what type of food your kids can eat at school even in the vending machines. Mrs. Obama spoke at the signing ceremony for the bill and declared that most parents are trying very hard to monitor what their children eat. They're cutting down on desserts, and trying to increase fruits and vegetables. But….
There's always a but with these people. Don't worry though. If you can't make sure your kids are eating right, the "Healthy, Hunger-Free Kids Act" will do it for you. If you had planned to have your child break the Guinness Book Record for being buried in something larger than a piano case you're out of luck. Michelle Obama isn't going to let that happen.
Within the "Healthy, Hunger-Free Kids Act" you'll find all kinds of goodies. For instance, a new pilot program for "organic foods" in our kids schools, $4.5 billion in increased spending on school food programs, and The Department of Agriculture will design new school nutrition standards. Yummy!
The First Lady has been a fierce defender of your child's health and weight since entering the White House. Whew! That's just one less thing you've got to worry about as a parent. Pretty soon we won't have to make one decision during our daily lives. These folks will take care of everything. Cradle to grave.
Because as Michelle Obama says, "We can't just leave it up to parents."

Surf contests bring community to coast
Last weekend was all about the hometown community surf events, with locals able to compete in a fun, laid-back atmosphere at two unique contests.
In Seal Beach, more than 100 competitors came out for the Katin Surf Shop Seal Beach Surfing Championships, an event that was started in the 1980s by the city recreation department but fizzled out over the years. A group of local surfers and the Seal Beach Lifeguard Association decided to resurrect the event more than a decade ago.
"The waves were really fun, the weather was great and everyone had a good time," contest organizer Tim Senneff said.
The contest was held in memory of Sean Collins, the founder of Surfline.com, who died in December 2011. He was instrumental in brining the contest back, and Surfline sponsored the event for several years.
It also helps out in donations, with funds this year going to "A Walk On Water," a group that helps provides water therapy through surf instruction to special-needs children. The contest raised more than $1,000 for the group.
"The goal is just get the community together and have a good time, and, at the same time, raise money for local charities," Senneff said.
The swell showed up for the competitors, with head high and even some overhead sets, he said. There were plenty of regulars who always show up, as well as a handful of newcomers, including the women's division that had surfers in their first contest, Senneff said.

Along the coast in Newport Beach, the waves were a lot smaller for the Arnette Cash Pot Surf Series, but that didn't stop local pros and amateurs from trying to score some cash at Sunday's contest.
The event brought out 60 surfers to the north side of the pier at Blackies, where waves in the 1-2 foot range made surfers put look for the best sections for turns and airs.
Surfers were only allowed to sign up early the morning of the contest, and there were two divisions: pro-am and 16 and under. There was $3,000 up for grabs, with winners of various divisions throughout the day getting cash.
Here are highlights from Arnette:
The 16 and nnder division final was the heat of the day with Griffin Foy just beating Jay Christiansen for the last $250 to be awarded to the groms.
In the pro finals it came down to quality wave selection as Cory Arrambide only caught two waves but made the most out of them to put $500 in his pocket.
The Cash Pot heads to Hawaii in July before hitting the east coast at the end of the summer. Information: arnette.com.

MacKinnon steals show in battle with Portland, Jones
by Staff Writer / Calgary FlamesNathan MacKinnon showed once again why he's the top offensive player available for the 2013 NHL Draft.
The Halifax Mooseheads center, No. 2 on NHL Central Scouting's final ranking of North American skaters for this year's draft, showcased his full offensive arsenal, scoring a second-period hat trick as his team cruised to a 7-4 victory against the Portland Winterhawks in round-robin play at the MasterCard Memorial Cup on Saturday at Credit Union Centre in Saskatoon, Saskatchewan.
The game was billed as MacKinnon against Portland defenceman Seth Jones, Central Scouting's top-ranked North American skater -- they're expected to be the first two players picked at this year's draft. It marked the fourth time they had met on the ice this season. MacKinnon and Canada beat Jones and the U.S. in the preliminary round at the 2013 IIHF World Junior Championship, but Jones got his revenge with a 5-1 win in the semifinals en route to winning the gold medal. Jones' Team Orr also beat MacKinnon's Team Cherry at the 2013 CHL/NHL Top Prospects Game.
This time, though, it was all MacKinnon, who scored at even strength, on the power play -- powering past Jones to get to the net -- and shorthanded. He also had an assist and a plus-4 rating.
"He won't be scoring three goals every night, [but] at the same time he's a guy that competes all the time," Halifax coach Dominick Ducharme said. "Tonight he made things happen. He was skating, he was hard on the puck. It was hard to get the puck away from him, he was strong on it. Obviously he was a key player in our comeback in that win. He's a kind of player that can make a difference like that."
Two other top draft prospects excelled for Halifax. Jonathan Drouin had a goal that sparked a five-goal second period, and goaltender Zach Fucale, Central Scouting's top-rated North American goalie, made 37 saves. Detroit Red Wings draft pick Martin Frk had a goal and an assist, and Luca Ciampini and St. Louis Blues draft pick Stephen MacAulay also scored.
Jones scored Portland's first goal but was minus-2. Winterhawks defenceman Troy Rutkowski, an Ottawa Senators prospect, had a pair of goals and Ty Rattie, a Blues draft pick, had a goal and two assists. Mac Carruth, a Chicago Blackhawks prospect, allowed seven goals on 35 shots after he surrendered 10 in six games to the Edmonton Oil Kings in the WHL finals.
The Winterhawks led 3-1 at 2:19 of the second period, but that's when Halifax, the Quebec Major Junior Hockey League champions and the top-rated team in the Canadian Hockey League, turned on the attack.
"We thought that we were not skating as well as we're able to skate, we weren't applying pressure," Ducharme said of his team's early play. "We were looking; we were watching them a little too much. We were not as active as we wish. When we started doing this, we played better. The other thing is quite often we were getting caught puck-watching, getting beat two or three guys by one pass, leaving a lot of space for them to gather sped. They played much better in the first and we wanted to make sure we came back strong in the second and that's what we did."
Drouin, No. 3 on NHL Central Scouting's final ranking of North American skaters for this year's draft, reached back to knock a loose puck past Carruth at 3:16 of the second to get the Mooseheads within a goal at 3-2. Just over a minute later, MacKinnon's first of the game tied it at 4:36 when he tipped a Brendan Duke shot past Carruth.
Undisciplined play by Portland allowed Halifax to take over the last half of the second period. A slashing penalty on Derrick Pouliot led to Ciampini's go-ahead goal at 11:17, and after Chase DeLeo was called for hooking, MacKinnon's man-advantage goal at 14:03, which saw him race around Jones and drive to the net, made it 5-3.
"I think he [MacKinnon] was happy about it," Drouin told the Halifax Chronicle-Herald. "Seth was probably not happy but that's just part of the game. Nate has that speed to burn and he used it there."
MacKinnon completed his hat trick with a shorthanded goal that he scored from a sharp angle with 1:25 left in the second, giving the Mooseheads a 6-3 lead.
"I've never played with a junior hockey player that has that much speed coming wide or that power to break to the net at the same time," Halifax co-captain Stefan Fournier told the Halifax Chronicle-Herald. "Nate's a fantastic hockey player and whether he goes one, two or three [in the NHL draft], it really doesn't make that much difference. He'll probably have a lengthy and extremely good career. For him at this point, it's just important he shows he's on the right path and I think he did that [Saturday]."
Portland coach Travis Green said he was happy with his team's play in the first period, but when Halifax raised its play in the second, his team couldn't keep up.
"They had to push, give them credit," Green said. "They pushed back. We mismanaged the puck a couple times. They had a couple lucky bounces for goals that went in from behind the net. All of a sudden the momentum starts to go and they were feeling good about themselves. Our energy level dipped, which happens when momentum swings like that."
Portland got a goal back on Rutkowski's second of the game, a power-play score set up by Rattie 1:09 into the third.
However, Halifax regained the momentum back when MacAulay, who was part of the Saint John Sea Dogs team that won the Memorial Cup in 2011, spun and knocked a puck past Carruth at 5:33.
Portland carried the play in the first period, outshooting Halifax 16-7, but it was Frk who opened the scoring when he scored off a MacKinnon setup at 15:46. Jones answered with a rocket from the point that went over Fucale's glove at 16:41.
That was all Portland was able to get in the opening 20 minutes thanks to Fucale, who went 16-1 with a 2.02 goals-against average in 17 QMJHL playoff games.
"He's done pretty good, that's for sure," Ducharme said of his goaltender. "The best thing about it is if your team doesn't start the right way, your goaltender can give you time to come back, and he did that [Saturday]."
Rutkowski's shot from the point got past Fucale 39 seconds into the second to put Portland ahead 2-1, and after a penalty on Abeltshauer for closing his hand on the puck at 1:51, Rattie gave the Winterhawks a 3-1 lead at 2:11 when he cut through the slot and slid a backhander past Fucale. However, it was all downhill after that for Portland, which sustained its worst loss of the season.
Halifax returns to the ice Sunday against the host Saskatoon Blades. Portland next plays Monday against the Ontario Hockey League champion London Knights. London opened its Memorial Cup play with a 3-2 win against Saskatoon on Friday.

In this episode, Rocky Lhotka joins us to talk about CSLA.NET. CSLA is a software development framework that helps you build a powerful, maintainable business logic layer for Windows, Web, service-oriented, and workflow applications. Its primary goal is to help you implement, manage, and reuse business logic. Rocky introduces CSLA.NET and then shows us how the upcoming version supports async programming and Windows 8 apps.

DEV282 - What's New in TFS and Test Manager 11 Live Q&A with Dave Lloyd and Debra Forsyth
DEV282 - What's New in TFS and Test Manager 11
The Discussion
Hi Mr. Green. I really like your swag. I am a fan of yours. I have a question.
There are frameworks being built to bridge the 'impedance mismatch' gap created by trying to map the database to OOPs. Could you please tell me how this gap is being minimized by some of the frameworks out there? -
CSLA is awesome (and so is its creator of course!).
While Rocky was presenting the WPF sample, he set the DataContext of the view to a CSLA object which is supposedly a Model object and not a ViewModel object. Now I understand that this was for the purposes of the presentation and brevity but since these objects already have the change notification, validation etc. built into them I was wondering what would be the correct strategy when wrapping these objects in ViewModels. Exposing these models as public properties would break the layering concept and not exposing them would require reimplementing all the public properties of the wrapped Model object, change notification etc. And by the way, what is used in theses objects for binding OK and Cancel buttons? Command objects?! Wouldn't that (again) break the layering? What if one wants to wrap the cancel object with a confirmation first? Out of top my head wouldn't it be nice to have a maybe dynamic object creator mechanism that wraps CSLA objects and re-exposes their properties with the option of adding extra responsibilities?
I'm wondering if one can leverage the infrastructure already available in the CSLA framework for creating object graphs for a View-Model-pattern-backed framework since a lot of concepts are similar here ...
I really liked what Rocky said about the Javascript in WinRT ... totally with that! -
I've been a Rocky & CSLA fan ever since I read his book on VB6 Business Objects. While my current projects don't lend themselves to that framework (different architectural paradigms), I've learned a lot from CSLA and my use of it in the past. (Though I never did like its DataPortal implementation of a facade over the data access layer, it always seemed like a hack to not just map CRUD operations directly to an interface... And CSLA's properties could be much, much nicer with metaprogramming facilities available like in C++...)
Where can I get the cool Magenic wallpaper with the Technical Relevance chart? Looks like a great orientation tool.
@Kaveh: The idea of domain driven business objects predates the current MVVM concept.
The idea behind a viewmodel is two-fold. First, the assumption is that the model object is in the wrong shape, so the viewmodel needs to expose the properties needed by the view because the model is wrong. Second, the assumption is that there'll be actions specific to the presentation layer that won't (and shouldn't) be implemented by the model.
If you do a good job designing your domain business objects they _will_ be in the right shape. And if you use CSLA then they'll also be fully bindable. So you really don't want or need a viewmodel to reshape the model, because the model is right to start with. Because of this my viewmodels tend to just have a Model property that directly exposes the domain object to the UI.
I do still have a viewmodel though, because the second reason (presentation layer actions) is _extremely_ valid, and I absolutely recommend using viewmodel objects to address this requirement.
CSLA includes a ViewModelBase class (in Csla.Xaml) that helps you create a viewmodel that exposes a Model property and provides protected members to make it easy to implement some common presentation layer actions.
I discuss this at some length in the 'Using CSLA 4: WPF and Silverlight' book. This is also a common topic on the forums (http://forums.lhotka.net) and on my blog (http://www.lhotka.net/weblog).
@Lars Kemmann: I might agree about the data portal if it were only a facade, but that's not the case.
The primary purpose of the data portal is to abstract the entire concept of an "application server", thereby providing location transparency. When you call the data portal your code doesn't know if the app is deployed in a 1-, 2-, 3-, or 4-tier environment, and it doesn't need to know or care.
Additionally, the data portal automatically manages a number of common requirements such as impersonation of custom principal/identities from the client, flow of client culture onto the server thread, abstraction of network technologies (Remoting, asmx, WCF, Web API, raw TCP, etc).
It is true that the data portal could have been interface-based. I conciously chose not to go that route because I wanted to support method overloading, thus allowing you to have different read (fetch) method overloads to support different application scenarios.
That said, the current CSLA 4.3 data portal does provide a number of important interfaces necessary for mocking and unit testing scenarios, including at the data portal level. If your primary concern was around mocking and testing you might find that the concern no longer applies in current versions of the framework.
@RockfordLhotka: Thanks for responding! I wasn't aware of the impersonation/culture flow - it's nice to have that, especially since the average developer (me) wouldn't have thought of that (getting to your point about the value of frameworks). Although, again, I could make an argument for using an interface with an optional abstract base class to help out those who are providing CSLA "adapters" to various persistence locations/schemes... Anyways, I think the most recent version of CSLA that I used was around 3.6-ish, so I'm definitely behind the times somewhat.
So... about that wallpaper...?
Nicely done.
What are your thoughts on CLSA.NET versus the the new LightSwitch product for a large LOB app ? (I have no experience in either) -- in particular, whether LightSwitch provides the same level of seperation of concerns that CSLA.NET does. What are the driving forces to chose one over the other? There's a thread on this topic at http://forums.lhotka.net/forums/t/9411.aspx but it's two years old now.

New Brunswick Witnesses Whooping Cough Outbreak
As per Brunswick's public health office report, it has been revealed that whooping cough pandemic has been increasing with time and number of cases has doubled since February. Dr. Eilish Cleary, who is the province's Chief Medical Officer, was of the view that they are expecting the number to rise in coming months.
There has been a rise of 100 cases of whooping cough in New Brunswick and still then health authorities are expecting the number to rise even further. "Public Health officials are monitoring the situation closely to ensure that appropriate interventions are in place", said Cleary.
She further affirmed that they have been closely investigating the matter and are trying to make sure that situation can be made under control. People, who are at risk are children, who are between five and 14, newborns, expecting mothers and elderly and people, who have been already suffering from other disease.
Whooping cough is a highly communicable disease, which occurs due to the presence of the Bordetella Pertussis bacterium in the respiratory tract. Some of its common symptoms are sneezing, running nose, mild fever and things get complicated with passage of time. The Health department has recommended people to take vaccination.

Universal Pictures, which produces and distributes the films worldwide, released the following statement: "All of us at Universal are heartbroken. Paul was truly one of the most beloved and respected members of our studio family for 14 years, and this loss is devastating to us, to everyone involved with the Fast and Furious films, and to countless fans. We send our deepest and most sincere condolences to Paul's family."

Supposedly it improves upon the detailing, separation and sound staging between the left and right channels. Basically 1 chip it dedicated to 1 channel from what I remember (I could be wrong though). Personally it was a very nice improvement over the RWA AK100 (which is supposedly better than the AK100). I intend on keeping my unit. I'm very satisfied with it. Now in regards to the pricing well I don't agree on this area (it's simply overpriced) but that still doesn't take away from it being a great DAP and an all in one solution IMO. Now for full size headphones I'd think the DX100 and Hifiman 901 would be better suited. But for IEMs you are hard pressed to beat the AK120 as a single all in one solution. Also keep in mind they significantly reduced the impedance on the AK120 so it works well (for the most part) with sensitive IEMs.

lol, unfortunately with google talking to the leading music industry executives, there will probably be some kind of DRM, and some kind of over-priced subscription service. I think that with this new announcement we are seeing a turning point in the Google saga. With this new turning point I believe we are loosing our lovable Google in favor of a Google that wants to just make money.

Tim Ferriss discussed, at the The Next Web 2010 event in Amsterdam, how to deal with haters, how to benefit from them as well.
Here are some ideas that Mashable listed after they interviewed Tim. Quoted from Mashable of course.
"1. It doesn't matter how many people don't get it. What matters is how many people do.
"It's critical in social media, as in life, to have a clear objective and not to lose sight of that," Ferriss says. He argues that if your objective is to do the greatest good for the greatest number of people or to change the world in some small way (be it through a product or service), you only need to pick your first 1,000 fans — and carefully. "As long as you're accomplishing your objectives, that 1,000 will lead to a cascading effect," Ferriss explains. "The 10 million that don't get it don't matter."
2. 10% of people will find a way to take anything personally. Expect it.
"People are least productive in reactive mode," Ferriss states, before explaining that if you are expecting resistance and attackers, you can choose your response in advance, as opposed to reacting inappropriately. This, Ferriss says, will only multiply the problem. "Online I see people committing 'social media suicide' all the time by one of two ways. Firstly by responding to all criticism, meaning you're never going to find time to complete important milestones of your own, and by responding to things that don't warrant a response." This, says Ferriss, lends more credibility by driving traffic.
3. "Trying to get everyone to like you is a sign of mediocrity." (Colin Powell)
"If you treat everyone the same and respond to everyone by apologizing or agreeing, you're not going to be recognizing the best performers, and you're not going to be improving the worst performers," Ferriss says. "That guarantees you'll get more behavior you don't want and less you do." That doesn't mean never respond, Ferriss goes on to say, but be "tactical and strategic" when you do.
4. "If you are really effective at what you do, 95% of the things said about you will be negative." (Scott Boras)
"This principle goes hand-in-hand with number two," Ferriss says. "I actually keep this quote in my wallet because it is a reminder that the best people in almost any field are almost always the people who get the most criticism." The bigger your impact, explains Ferriss (whose book is a New York Times, WSJ and BusinessWeek bestseller), and the larger the ambition and scale of your project, the more negativity you'll encounter. Ferriss jokes he has haters "in about 35 languages."
5. "If you want to improve, be content to be thought foolish and stupid." (Epictetus)
"Another way to phrase this is through a more recent quote from Elbert Hubbard," Ferriss says. "'To avoid criticism, do nothing, say nothing, and be nothing." Ferriss, who holds a Guinness World Record for the most consecutive tango spins, says he has learned to enjoy criticism over the years. Ferriss, using Roman philosophy to expand on his point, says: "Cato, who Seneca believed to be the perfect stoic, practiced this by wearing darker robes than was customary and by wearing no tunic. He expected to be ridiculed and he was, he did this to train himself to only be ashamed of those things that are truly worth being ashamed of. To do anything remotely interesting you need to train yourself to be effective at dealing with, responding to, even enjoying criticism… In fact, I would take the quote a step further and encourage people to actively pursue being thought foolish and stupid."
6. "Living well is the best revenge." (George Herbert)
"The best way to counter-attack a hater is to make it blatantly obvious that their attack has had no impact on you," Ferriss advises. "That, and [show] how much fun you're having!" Ferriss goes on to say that the best revenge is letting haters continue to live with their own resentment and anger, which most of the time has nothing to do with you in particular. "If a vessel contains acid and you pour some on an object, it's still the vessel that sustains the most damage," Ferriss says. "Don't get angry, don't get even — focus on living well and that will eat at them more than anything you can do."
7. Keep calm and carry on.
The slogan "Keep Calm and Carry On" was originally produced by the British government during the Second World War as a propaganda message to comfort people in the face of Nazi invasion. Ferriss takes the message and applies it to today's world. "Focus on impact, not approval. If you believe you can change the world, which I hope you do, do what you believe is right and expect resistance and expect attackers," Ferriss concludes. "Keep calm and carry on!""
That was enlightening. (quoted from Mashable).
Update: Added clarification about quoted part.

thanks fluffy! Do you know what criteria pictures must have to fulfill the rules to be a fanpic. would have been really nice to be able to see them in public as all of the other fan art pics. but I dont know. Maybe pics have to be paintings to be called fan art. But maybe this could give opportunities for creating a new fan art form here on JCO.
Kind of you! Any favourite pic?
Well would have been nice. You know what I mean I think. Directly now when you visit Jim Carrey Online the first news are 50 new fan art on the site. hope someday that my pics will be among them. But I dont know the JCO stuff and who is the person to ask.
it's Tommy he's the person to ask...... TNPihl drop him a PM
i really like them all and i've seen your myspace stuff.........you've got a very unique style......they are really good i've never seen anyone else do stuff like it...... Fluffy
oh are you visiting me on myspace too. nice! mostly I am active on facebook. but I add all my pics to myspace. well yeah I kind of inspired of other artists. last of my had an Andy Warhol style. I also have done Tim Burton Art project. Maybe i will add them to the off topic forum. I talk to Tommy. Hard to explain my idea maybe. I am from sweden and somtimes very ashamed of my bad english. But I will try. Well to another thing. I heard that JCO have published a book. I just wonder what it look like inside. Kind of feels like I know the people a little bit on this site. Maybe I should buy it.

I've never run a business and don't know much about these things, but I'm sure part of the reason why Yoox beats Mr. Porter on prices is because they don't have garment measurements and poor product descriptions. You'd have to pay people to do that extra work, and that extra cost gets added to their prices. Yoox works and is successful for now because a huge, hyper-efficient warehouse is better for cost savings than reducing return rates.
I think that's right. I also think that Yoox sources its inventory differently. My guess is Yoox is buying large lots of merchandise, probably without knowing specifically what they are getting; e.g.: here's a lot of 100 shirts from supplier x. They get it really cheap, obviously. But they are not spending time having buyers decide which items to carry, as Mr. Porter is. They buy cheap, in bulk, then they get it on the site as quickly as they can. Very lean operation, I'll bet.
Also, not having B&M stores helps with costs, of course.
But this is not the first time I've heard of customers being rejected, and not just from Yoox. On the other hand, I don't know how anyone can be confident of what they are getting when they order from Yoox, due to their vague descriptions.
This happened to me, as well. They sent me a nice email asking if there was a reason I've made so many returns. I actually have not purchased from them in at least a year. But I noticed I don't get the DealFlyer anymore. STP is not quite as bad as Yoox, but they also suffer from not giving enough information, not to mention sending out merchandise that is really beat up.
But I don't know how you can sell clothing online without expecting lots of returns. LA Guy cited 10% returns for B&M vs. 30% for online; that's because you can actually see and try on the merchandise in person in a store. I don't know that there's a level of description on the web that would narrow that gap much; although whatever it is, Yoox is far from it.

Nikon are as guilty as some other makers of downgrading specifications. The slowest (equal) flash sync speed in the group restricts users development in this area.

From what has been written about Vandalia in the history books and personal memoirs, our county seat was an armed camp during the years of the Civil War.
This week's Mystery Banks Photo: This young lady, pictured about 40 years ago, grew up in Ramsey, married and moved to Vandalia. She has three children and teaches school in Vandalia.
25 Years Ago
1988 – The Vandalia Hardee's opened its doors. St. Elmo's eighth grade basketball team took first in the Brownstown Invitational. More than 78 percent of the registered voters in Fayette County elected Marsha Wodtka, circuit clerk; Don Sheafor, state's attorney; Dan Taylor, sheriff; and Gary Blurton, coroner. Johnny Houston and Sherry Britt were crowned king and queen of the Patoka Halloween Carnival.
35 Years Ago
This week's Mystery Banks Photo: These young people, pictured about 20 years ago, grew up in the Vandalia and Shobonier area.
1988 – The Madonna of the Trail monument was rededicated on Saturday, the 60th anniversary of the Vandalia monument. The team of Gary Gray, Danny Kellow and Randy Fechtler won first place in the Fifth Saturday chili cookoff. Brownstown's volleyball team won the Altamont Regional by beating Ramsey in three games. The Bombers were only 12-12 when they entered regional action. They were eliminated by Pana in the Casey Sectional.
Have you noticed anything different about today's issue of The Leader-Union? Think old friend, new friend. Give up? Take a look at the next two pages. That's where the old-and-new theme comes in. On page 5 is the old friend. We're bringing back The TV Leader. After more than a year's absence, we revisited our decision to pull the plug on that feature. At the time, we weren't sure how many people were using it. Since cutting it, we found the answer: quite a few.
With this Tuesday being an election day in some parts of the nation, I thought it appropriate to recount some true stories of past elections in our area. The earliest actually took place shortly after statehood, and the people involved lived near the current site of VanBurensburg. In 1816, a group of families and neighbors from that part of Warren County, Kentucky, which is now Allen County (near Bowling Green), left their home and proceeded northward to what is now Bond County, Illinois.
This week's Mystery Banks Photo: This young fisherman, pictured nearly 20 years ago, is now a carpenter who lives and works in the Vandalia area.
1988 – The Vandalia Volunteer Fire Department's rescue truck sustained major damage when it jumped into gear and rolled down an embankment after being called to a three-vehicle collision at the intersection of U.S. Route 51 and Van Tran Avenue. Ramsey won the Egyptian-Illini Conference volleyball tournament. Shanin Whitten of Ramsey was named tournament MVP. Beth Herrington and Cindy Harrison represented Vandalia Community High School at the IHSA state tennis tournament.
One day, while scanning microfilmed copies of what was described as "miscellaneous newspapers," images from The Bingham Agriculturist from Jan. 24, 1889, appeared on the screen.
