In general I really enjoy using Windows Scheduled Tasks to run time specific jobs on a server. This could be anything from an emailing service to an export routine.

SASS (Syntactically Awesome Stylesheets) originally designed by Hampton Catlin and developed by Nathan Weizenbaum. SASS is a meta-language on top of CSS that’s used to describe the style of a document cleanly and structurally, with more power than flat CSS allows as well it is an extension of CSS3 which adds nested rules, variables, mixins, selector inheritance, and more. SASS generates well formatted CSS and makes your stylesheet easier to organize and maintain, especially if there is more than one stylesheet.
