klearvue··on A Tor of the Dark Web
If using OpenVPN, there is one precaution one must take - make sure your firewall prevents traffic escaping when your VPN connection fails. Shorewall lets you set up such an arrangement fairly easily. Many US poker players have been burnt this way when using overseas VPN services to play poker as operators are able to catch their real location during brief moments of VPN failure.

With SSH tunnel, if your connection fails, no traffic will escape regardless.

A word of advice for those living under truly oppressive governments - do not connect to Tor directly (nor to a Tor bridge, to be on the safe side). Get a cheap VPS/EC2 abroad and use SSH tunnel to connect to that and from then onwards - to a Tor bridge. The reason is that, if connecting to Tor directly, security services will be able to figure out you are using Tor (although not what you are using it for) and may take an interest.

MIT's OpenCourseware makes available a set of very good course lectures on pricing here: http://ocw.mit.edu/courses/sloan-school-of-management/15-818... Although unlike the article, it focuses on economics rather than psychology.
klearvue··on What PHP 5.5 might look like
Drupal 8 looks very promising with its adoption of Symfony Elements (HttpFoundation, HttpKernel, Routing, ClassLoader, EventDispatcher, DependencyInjection). Presumably it will be easy to integrate with other Symfony stuff and Symfony itself will benefit from the huge Drupal community.
