<description><![CDATA[If you know what this is and where it is located, you could be eligible to win a prize in the CNET Road Trip Picture of the Day contest.(Credit:Daniel Terdiman/CNET)Update (Monday, 11:36 p.m. PDT): The answer to Monday's challenge--which 103 people got--is the main hall of the main train station in Zurich, otherwise known as the Zurich Hauptbahnhof. Also featured in the picture, as many people identified, is the 'L'Ange Protecteur,' or Guardian Angel, by Niki de Saint-Phalle. Thanks to everyone who played, and to all, please come back for Tuesday's challenge.Welcome to the Road Trip Picture of the Day contest. This is your chance to win some cool prizes as you test your skills at recognizing pictures.Each day, I'll be posting a new photograph from my various travels, and your job is to try to correctly identify it using any means at your disposal. Throughout Road Trip 2011, which will take me to a number of countries in Western Europe, there will be a new challenge each and every day, and the opportunity to win some great prizes.And now on to today's challenge. If you know what this is and where it's located, please send me an e-mail with both pieces of information (to daniel*dot*terdiman--at--cbs*dot*com) by 6 p.m. Pacific time today. Please note: in order to be considered, you must include the phrase &quot;Picture of the Day challenge&quot; in the subject line of your e-mail. No other methods of entering are guaranteed to be considered.And please forgive me if you don't hear from me if you're not the winner. I get dozens of responses each day. Also, I've turned off comments because otherwise people will post the correct answers there. I hate to shut down discussion, but I want you to figure out the answer on your own. The giveawaysThis year, I'll be giving both a weekly prize and one grand prize at the end of my Road Trip project. Here's how it will work:For the weekly prize, I'll pick a winner at random from among all those who correctly identified one of that week's daily challenges. You get one entry into this drawing for each correct entry you submitted that week. For the grand prize, which is a major brand video game console, the winner will be the person who answers the most daily challenges correctly during the entire project. So there's definitely an incentive to play every day and to answer correctly as often as possible. Be warned: last year, there was no shortage of people who had the right answer most of the time, so the competition for the grand prize will be stiff.Given the constraints of the work I'll be doing on Road Trip, I have to minimize the complexity of the Picture of the Day challenge, so if you want to accumulate right answers and compete for the grand prize, you must use the same e-mail address and name each time. If you use a different name or e-mail address, your answers won't all be counted together. For complete information and rules about the Picture of the Day challenge, please click here. Good luck today, and throughout the summer. The disclaimer: NO PURCHASE NECESSARY TO ENTER OR WIN. MUST BE A LEGAL RESIDENT OF ONE OF THE 50 UNITED STATES OR D.C., 18 YEARS OLD AND AGE OF MAJORITY OR OLDER IN STATE OF RESIDENCE AT DATE OF ENTRY INTO SWEEPSTAKES.

<description><![CDATA[A judge has granted Google's request for a temporary court order that puts a freeze on a contract the U.S. Interior Department planned to award to Microsoft for an e-mail system.  U.S. Court of Federal Claims Judge Susan Braden cited deficiencies in the procurement process for the $49.3 million contract, according to the 27-page court decision unsealed yesterday and reported on by Bloomberg today.  &quot;Without a preliminary injunction, the award will put into motion the final migration of Interior's e-mail system, achieve 'organizational lock-in' for Microsoft, and cost Google the opportunity to compete,&quot; the judge wrote. The Interior Department intended to give the contract to Microsoft later this month, she said.  Google sued the Interior Department in October claiming that it was essentially barred from competing for the project because the agency's proposal request specified that only the Microsoft Business Productivity Online Suite-Federal could be proposed.  The company has made the same complaint about a contract the USDA awarded to Microsoft.  Google executives said they are pleased with the court's decision, according to a statement provided to Bloomberg. Microsoft provided CNET this statement: &quot;The Department of the Interior determined that the dedicated, U.S.-based cloud solution offered by Microsoft met its minimum security and other requirements after a careful and thorough evaluation, and that Google's solution did not. The judge's decision does not address this fundamental determination. We believe the full record will demonstrate that this award is in the best interest of the government and taxpayers. Microsoft can't publicly comment further due to its ongoing relationship with DOI.&quot;  A spokeswoman for the Interior Department said she could not comment on ongoing litigation.  Google and Microsoft are in a heated battle over government and other contracts for tech services as agencies and businesses increasingly move to cloud-based systems to save money and create efficiencies. <br/><br/>0 Vote(s) ]]></description>
