JDOM 1.1 Released I just posted the JDOM 1.1 release for download. This release includes about 20 improvements and bug fixes. iPhone 1.0.2: Beware Did Apple fire the QA department or something? What's on Jason's Hard Drive? O'Reilly just posted a new article of mine titled <a href="http://www.onlamp.com/pub/a/onlamp/2006/11/02/personal_document_management.html">What's on Jason's Hard Drive?</a> It's all about document management. Sun: First thing we do, let's fire all the lawyers Today's big news story is that Sun will lay off 5,000 employees -- 13% of its workforce. My advice to Sun: start with the lawyers.

Jason's 2006 Speaking Schedule In case you're wondering where you can see me on this year's speaking circuit, here's my anticipated schedule. New Features Added to Servlets 2.5 I wrote the cover story for JavaWorld this week covering the new changes in Servlets 2.5. Here's <a href="http://www.javaworld.com/javaworld/jw-01-2006/jw-0102-servlet.html">the link</a>. The Innovator's Dilemma: It's Happening to Java I came to a realization this weekend. The Java web tier is suffering "The Innovator's Dilemma"... Being BileBlogged I've been "BileBloged". Getting "biled" is an honor. It means Hani Suleiman has dedicated one of his BileBlog entries to me, bitching and moaning as only he can. In this case he's biling about a talk I gave on open source at the TSS Symposium in Vegas this afternoon.
But sadly -- instead of a good healthy lampooning of my actual beliefs and words -- Hani put words in my mouth. That's just not right. I've gotta bile back. Jason's 2005 Speaking Schedule Some people have been asking me when and where I'll be speaking in 2005, so here's a short rundown. Screencasting with Jon Udell I recently did a "<a href='http://weblog.infoworld.com/udell/2005/02/15.html#a1177'>screencast</a>" with Jon Udell at Infoworld in which I demo XQuery and the MarkLogic Server. It's 12 minutes long and shows some short but powerful queries running against O'Reilly book and article content. Blog spam on ISP reviews The blog spammers look to be posting to any form with a "comment" field. I predict what's next... Top 10 Must-Read Java Programming Books "Java Servlet Programming" made the About.com "Top 10 Must-Read Java Books" list. New Poll: Choose an XML object model I've noticed that XQJ (the XQuery API for Java) has first class support for reading and writing DOM nodes but using JDOM and the other Java-based XML object models requires a lot more work. I'm wondering if that's proper. Me? Distinguished? I'm giving a talk next week as part of the SD Forum "Distinguished Speaker Series".

Tips To Rent A Wedding Dress By Jerry Leung There is no doubt that your wedding dress will be one of the most expensive items in your wedding. In fact, you can save a fortune if you are going to rent the wedding gown. Renting a gown is also considered environmental friendly. However, renting a wedding gown is not the same as buying a new one because you have to return it after your wedding. In order to prevent unnecessary arguments with the bridal shop or the wedding dress shop, you should bear the following points in mind.
Place your order as early as possible
Since it will certainly take some time for the alterations of the gown in order to make it fit your body, you should place your order to rent it at least half year before your big day. You may need to place the order even earlier if you are going to do that in the peak seasons.
Check the gown carefully when you pick it
You have to check the wedding dress with the greatest care when you pick it. You need to check if there are dirt and damages on the gown. You will then drop down everything about the dirt and damages on the contract before signing it.
This is very important if money saving is the main reason for you to rent the gown. You will certainly rent an older gown with a lower price. However, there will usually be more dirt and damages on such a gown (since it is an older one). If you do not check all the problems of it carefully and drop notes about that, it can be sure that you will just be arguing with the people from the bridal shop when you return the gown.
Pick the wedding dress yourself
You should not ask others to pick the gown for you. This is because they cannot try the wedding dress for you when they pick it. You should spend the time to pick it yourself. If you find that the gown does not fit when you are trying it, you can ask for alterations right the way. You may not have enough time to bring the gown to the shop again for alternations if you are having others to pick it for you.
Pick the gown a few days before your wedding
You should pick your wedding dress at least a few days before your wedding. If you really find that the wedding dress does not fit, you can still allow the shop a few days to alter the dress for you. Of course you should not pick it too early either since you may become fatter or slimmer
(it should be slimmer, I bet) after you pick the gown.
Ask about the penalties if the gown is damaged
You will also need to ask about the penalties if you damage the gown. The penalties will certainly be different for different shops. Dropping down all the penalties may be involved if the gown is damaged will be a crucial step. Otherwise it will just render unnecessary arguments.
