Tips & Tricks for Databases (Sybase, Oracle, MySQL, PostgreSQL, SQLite), Windows, Linux, Solaris, Perl, Java, Bash and so much much more
Hey there! Thanks for dropping by Jason L. Froebe – Tech tips and How Tos for Fellow Techies! Take a look around and grab the RSS feed to stay updated. See you around!
Our contest for today is for the new, exciting WHOLE AND CHUNKY FRUIT BOX from TCF Organics. The box contains a wide selection of fruits, some whole (obviously) and some already cut and prepped for you! Anything that is appropriate to cut, like pineapple and melons, will arrive cut up and ready to eat. Things that would turn brown, like apples, pears, and bananas, arrive whole, perfect for out-of-hand eating.
The box is normally a $35 value, including delivery. And TCF is letting me give one away!
So, you want the details? Not a problem!
To win this wonderful box full of fruit, delivered right to your door, you need to live within 100 miles of Chicago. Please click this link to make sure that you are part of the delivery area. If you enter, and aren’t eligible, I’m sorry to say that I’ll have to choose someone else. So please, only enter if you can actually get the box.
Now until July 30th, Sybase is accepting videos from companies,
students, mega corps, hobbyists and the ghost that lives in your

something ‘cool’ (in Sybase marketing speak: create an innovative solution to a real-world challenge). The videos must be original (you own the rights), under 3 minutes and file size of less than 50MB.
