OSCache doesn't play nicely with Tiles

I was hoping to use OSCache to cache my JSP pages to overcome my 15-seconds-to-load performance issue. I was hoping to simply place <cache:cache> tags around my entire Tile's baseLayout.jsp. However, I was disappointed to find that this did not work. I get this nice error message:

Can't insert page '/common/header.jsp' : Illegal to flush within a custom tag 

I even tried it just surrounding my 200+ row table of indexed properties, but no dice, same error. Oh well, onto caching with Hibernate's JCS support.

Are you a contractor wondering what you should charge?

I'm sure all of you have wondered what you should be getting paid for your services. Especially if you're a contractor. It sucks that you never know if someone is making more than you. In our society, it's sometimes taboo to discuss how much you make. That's why I like the Government Jobs - sure they pay less, but you know exactly how much everyone makes. Anyway, the purpose of this post is to point you to RealRates.com where you can see what other folks are getting paid. I encourage you all to add your rates. Moving to Florida doesn't look so bad when you search on Java and Florida.
