Just add sunshine
Make the most out of your outdoor space this Summer. This year IKEA launches a bigger outdoor range than ever before. From dining sets and umbrellas to storage and low seating - we have what you need for a total overhaul or just a quick refresh. For big spaces or small, we have solutions for entertaining, casual meals or for relaxing with a good book. Whether you like the look and feel of natural timber or something that's maintenance free, we have a range of materials and styles to choose from.
Loving the outdoor life
We're from Sweden where, as soon as the winter snow melts, everyone wants to do as much outdoor living as possible. As the sun gets warmer, Swedes move outside to eat, relax and be with friends. That's why we have so many options here to make the most of your outdoor space. There's everything from decking for a fresh look for your terrace floor to tables and chairs for breakfast on a sunlit balcony and comfy garden furniture for lounging around with a good book. And when the sun is a bit too strong, we have parasols and gazebos to keep you cool and help protect you from those UV-rays.
Make your outdoor space greener and brighter
There's nothing like plants in pots to turn any outdoor area into your own green oasis. So along with some choice plants, we have lots of pots in different sizes and styles. Hanging up some plants and putting more at different heights on our outdoor tables or shelving units will give you a real garden feeling – even in a small space. And sunlight doesn't just make plants grow and people happy, it powers many of our outdoor lights, too. Some lights shining as you sit outside will make your outdoor evenings with family and friends even longer and cosier before the dark winter nights return!

Fortunate photography
Taking great pictures is all about options and opportunity. While you can't control too much about opportunity, options are something you can easily plan for. Take, for example, the Sony DSCTX100 Cybershot digital camera: it's an ultra-thin camera that's easy to carry around, has an incredible 16.2-megapixel resolution, and has easy shooting with autofocus and face detection. That's a lot of options in one small package. Of course, that's not even taking into account the fun side of the camera — you can take 3D still images that can be viewed in all their glory on your 3D HDTV, two types of incredible panoramas, and even has the ability to defocus the background when taking a picture of a subject (something you don't normally see with compact digital cameras). So plan for what you can with the DSCTX100; because, after all, opportunity favors the prepared.

Sony TX100V, a super small camera. (April 08, 2011)
|Ease of Use
|Overall Rating
Reviewed By: Carl B. - Rochester, NY
The Sony TX100V's focus is accurate and sharp in 9 out 10 pictures. Focusing speed is very fast in good light, and about average speed in poor lighting. Colors seem bright and very natural. The in-camera lens distortion correction is very good. The pictures when viewed at close study show some over-processing that smears certain areas. The touchscreen is not without issues. There is a large sensitivity difference between the screen buttons, some you can activate just by hold your finger over the button without touching and other buttons require a swipe, press, again and again before it works. The flash has a very good range and a fairly quick recharge time. I have tried the GPS feature a couple of times and I am not impressed. It was very slow to acquire satellite lock and log your location. Battery life was very short, compared to all my other digital cameras [I recommend spares]. The Sony TX100V and its compact size allow it to be carried in any pocket, always handy.

I plan for our city to be popping mobile siege structures. I'm thinking of mainly creating siege ballista as the ballista doesn't need to be dragged slowly up to the wall/tower/gate before it can start to damage the enemy city.Exate wrote:This seems workable. However, it does eat up our next three-four turns with this- what will our city be doing during that time? With the King in Green now aware of his forces' loss, it's vitally important that we move on to our next objective quickly, before he has a chance to fortify. I believe we've discussed previously how Rainbow Springs is a natural rallying point for units from a half-dozen Breatheairian cities; I would very much like to take it before they can use it as such and make it virtually impregnable.Swodaems wrote:My plan to bring them both in:
Tod sighs and says, "I see that talking to you further at the moment would not be productive. I'll attend to my duties elsewhere. Good day." Tod then leaves to check on the status of the elves.ETheBoyce wrote:T. Coil laughs a long, cruel, bitter laugh in Tod's face.
"We both know that I am necessary for you capture plan, just as we both know I was already going to go on it, just as we both know I have been instrumental in every Tenebresian victory since I TURNED to this side. And yet at every opportunity you seek to hinder my advancement of our cause. Their case was neither important nor compelling, the Elves will be of little battlefield use unless we plan on sacrificing them like the King in Green and thus their main purpose will be post-engagement healing and helping me with Turning. If they do not approve of my methods then they will refuse to help, just as we both know Triage and Junetta would be most loathe to do! Turning them my way insures they are obedient which is all we need from them. As for the question of Armolad and who holds the Title of Chief Warlord, quite frankly I have little reason to care who it is, you both seem interchangeable at this point, though Armolad has thus far managed to not put us in a desperate position by convincing a major side to focus solely on us! If you are insecure in your position as Chief Warlord it is not because of Armolad's Bonus, it is because you are worried the King thinks you incompetent, which is a problem well worth considering."
Tod approaches the cells in time to hear the tail end of Wandereus' response to Will's question.MarbitChow wrote:"They've already provided a bit of information, though. A number of stacks of Faerie reinforcements were massing in Rainbow Springs, and at least one or two stacks were already headed here to help reinforce the city when Armolad captured it. They're probably only a turn or two away. They keep several stacks in each city to patrol and clear out the surrounding terrain, since they do so more quickly and safely than regular troops."
MarbitChow wrote:Junetta notices the commotion outside the parlor
MarbitChow wrote:Junetta responds that Romana's Fryahovar mount was popped by Breatheairia, just as our Naughty Kitties are. Fryahovar grow wings once they reach 4th level. She suspects the Turnamancers may be the right place to find what you seek.
MarbitChow wrote:OOC: Note that the pending rules revision allows mounts to carry Heavies when the mount reaches 4th level, if they purchase the ability, as well as the Swift ability to increase their movement. (click)
Also a quick reminder that, thanks to the Crown of Darkness artifact that you gained for King Creperum, any Level 4 Tenebris city can pop Bad Ass mounts, which have flight.
Technically, you already did the epic quest by defeating the Bone Dagron and unlocking the Bad Asses, otherwise you'd be limited to ground mounts only. And I'm still going back and forth between increasing the XP for mounts, but I suspect that since mounts protect the PCs, they'll probably expire more frequently, so getting more than a couple to Level 4 should be a challenge regardless.BLANDCorporatio wrote:OOC: I've been not following the rules discussion thread, so that's interesting news. A bit odd, because it kinda softens the punch of mobility penalty for walking Heavies. I was expecting an epic quest to be honest, since my understanding was that Romana's mount was fairly rare.

Christopher Lehman
Cultural historian and author
Photo of the book cover for "A Critical History of Soul Train on Television" (2007).
Social historian Christopher Lehman's four books have enriched the African-American historical canon.
His most recent book, "Slavery in the Upper Mississippi Valley, 1787-1865," documents the persistence of slavery in Illinois, Iowa, Minnesota and Wisconsin through the end of the Civil War.
Although African American slavery was banned in the region in 1787, slaves were held here by soldiers and federal officials. The illustrated 224-page softcover book was published spring 2011 by McFarland & Company, a North Carolina imprint known for its scholarly titles.
His previous books, "A Critical History of Soul Train on Television," "The Colored Cartoon: Black Representation in American Animated Short Films" and "American Animated Cartoons of the Vietnam Era" drew national reviews and media coverage.
"The Colored Cartoon" was honored by the Association of College and Research Libraries as an outstanding academic title in 2008. View Lehman's Amazon page.
Last summer Lehman was a Summer Visiting Fellow at Harvard University's W.E.B. DuBois Institute for African and African American Research through the National Endowment for the Humanities.
A professor of ethnic studies, Lehman coordinates the African American Studies minor at St. Cloud State and is the former faculty adviser for the Council of African American Students on campus.
Lehman holds a bachelor's degree in history from Oklahoma State University. He earned his advanced degrees at University of Massachusetts Amherst: a master's in history and doctorate in African American studies.
St. Cloud State, where he has taught since 2002, is his first full-time posting.

You need:
- 8 x 6.25 piece of exterior fabric (interfaced)
- 8 x 6.25 piece of lining
- 2 x 3 piece of fabric for key ring loop
- split key ring
- 8" zipper
{1/4" seam allowances throughout}
Cut your exterior & lining pieces in half (measuring 4 x 6.25 each, you'll have 4 pieces)
Take your 2 x 3 piece of fabric, fold right sides together the long way, sew. Turn right side out and press with the seam in the middle of the fabric. Press in half to make a loop, baste raw edges together if desired. Set aside.
Lay down the first exterior fabric right side up, place your zipper teeth side down with the zipper pull to the left. Lay one of the lining pieces right side down. Pin if you'd like. Using your zipper foot sew together.
Flip wrong sides together. Next lay your remaining exterior fabric piece right side up, place your zipper teeth side down with the zipper pull to the right this time. Lay the remaining lining piece right side down on top of the zipper. Pin. Sew. Flip wrong sides together, press.
Flip right sides together (be sure to open your zipper about half way now). Tuck in your tab that you made earlier between the exterior pieces of fabric, with the tab's raw edges facing out.
Sew around entire parimeter leaving a 2 to 3" opening in the lining for turning.
When I'm sewing around the parimeter, I make sure to push the zipper towards the exterior fabric on both sides when sewing across the zipper (zoom in on the above picture if you need to). Clip corners, trim excess zipper. Pull inside out through the opening. Use chopstick to push out corners. Tuck raw edges of opening in, sew opening in lining shut with small seam allowance, or stitch closed by hand. Push lining into exterior. Press.
Attach your metal key ring, you're good to go! Stuff in all those gadgets and whatever else you might need, a camera, cell phone, iPod, you name it. Let me know if you have any questions, I'd be happy to help.

(article in Japanese)
She wasn't able to find a new coach.
(article in Japanese)
She wasn't able to find a new coach.
oh no, I was so looking forward to see her again.
and come one, a two time world champion, there should be some coaches out there who are willing to train her.
even though I´m a big fan of her, that sounds more like an excuse.
so this is very bad, if she really wants to compete next season, she has to qualifiy and do well at worlds, otherwise no2 grand prixs mehr. apart from that, she will go do in the rankings, what would be really bad for starting orders next season, but who knows if next season will come
I was expecting something like this. I think the lack of motivation is the real problem. A "coach" is an excuse. If she seriously wants to compete, the federation officials will do their best to find one. Since Ando is an employee of Toyota, she couldn't easily "withdraw" from Lexus Cup of China. She would've been happy if the JSF decided not to send Japanese skaters to China.
Not a surprise. I was very surprised to even see her listed in the grand prix. I really dont think she will compete at all as an amateur again. I have read many reports of her lacking motivation to continue, and lets face it she is never going to duplicate her 2010-2011 season again, that was the perfect note to end her amateur career on.
Miki will add to the depth in ladies and make ladies as exciting and thrilling as men.
Japanese federation didn't sound that much worried that Miki was going coachless which to me seemed like they had confidence in her current training.
I was so looking forward to her comeback!
Miki was so sad when she tweeted about how hard it was to start practice again. This is not a surprise. But she hasn't tweeted anything lately...
no Caro, no Ando, half(maybe) Tuktamysheva in GP series.
GPF competition will be easy.
Does it say she is taking just the GPs off or the whole season off?
Kostner, Silété, and now Ando, 3 skaters out of the same GP events(COC and TEB).
There are too many skaters matching in the same events.
ISU should organize skaters more carefully so something like this won't happen.
Based on the JSF's currently issued selection criteria, skaters who have not achieved minimum TES shall not be chosen for ISU championships. So if Ando wants to go to worlds, she needs to compete at any senior B comps before Japanese nationals. She won't do that as long as motivation is the problem. After all, the same three will go to worlds in Canada.
Nooooo!!! I was so excited to see TEB be a huge ladies event!
DH - and that's just my opinion
We have a lot of talented people here on FSU, why don't we offer our services as coach to Miki? I'd be happy to advise on costuming as I cannot skate worth a damn.

A couple of days ago in a DAC thread I heard about a company called Audio GD. I had never heard of them before so I looked them up on the web. They appear to be a Chinese audio manufacturer. That is, they have no presence in the United States, except for dealers. Since they are pure Chinese their costs must be very low. Yet, their prices are higher than Emotiva's prices for similar gear.
Of course, that raises the question of why are the Emotiva prices so low. We are told it is because they are made in China. Is Audio GD gouging customers, or do they have a better audio product which costs more to make. I have seen a few posts from Emotiva users stating that higher priced gear is not any better than Emotiva gear. So, can it be that while Emotiva does make good gear for the price it is possible that better gear exists, but at a higher price.

In the garden
Planting perennials
Fall is the time to plant perennials including herbs. Because some favorites like basil and parsley are annuals planted in the spring, it's easy to forget that many herbs can be planted in the fall and enjoyed until Thanksgiving, or if the weather is mild like last year, all winter long. And herbs can always be planted in pots and brought inside.
"Now is a very good time to get perennial herbs in the ground," says Nicole Schermerhorn, co-owner of A Thyme to Plant at Lavender Fields Herb Farm. "It's cool enough that you want to be outside working in your garden, but still warm enough for the herbs."
"Typically we're also getting enough rain at this time of the year," adds Schermerhorn, "and you're home from vacation now so you can take care of your herbs and begin using them."
Hardy perennials to plant now include rosemary, sage, thyme, chives, fennel, mints, and parsley. The fennel and the mint will die back over the winter but come back in the spring.
"Planting now allows the herbs to establish roots over the winter," says Schermerhorn. "They'll flush out new growth in the spring."
Herbs can be planted in dedicated herb gardens, mixed with vegetables, or added to flower beds and borders. Their various textures and colors can be very attractive, and many people enjoy putting fragrant herbs along walks or driveways where they can easily be touched to release their scents. Culinary herbs should be planted near your kitchen so that harvesting them is easy and convenient. You'll use them more often.
In choosing a site, remember that most herbs require full sun, from 4 to 6 hours a day minimum, good drainage, and good air circulation. Good drainage is so important that Schermerhorn recommends planting herbs in raised beds.
"Clay soil," she says, "does not provide good drainage." She recommends a planting medium of one-third organic matter such as compost, one-third topsoil, and one-third builders' sand.
"Make sure it's builders' sand," says Schermerhorn. "It won't compact like play sand so it adds drainage."
Don't mulch herbs. "We put a handful of organic compost around our plants to dress them up and improve the soil," says Schermerhorn.
"Herbs do not like wet feet, and all mulch does in winter is keep their feet wet."
In fact, most herbs are considered drought-tolerant, though some moisture is needed during dry spells to keep the plants growing. In general, annuals require more moisture than perennials.
Herbs also don't require much fertilizer. Over-fertilizing an herb can produce growth that is too rapid, making the plant more susceptible to disease or insect problems and diluting the concentration of essential oils that produce the taste in culinary herbs. Herbs in pots are the exception. They should be lightly fertilized once a month during their growing season.
Using your herbs is important to keeping them healthy. Evergreen herbs can be cut and enjoyed in recipes or vases all winter.
"Herbs are designed to be used," says Schermerhorn. "Cutting them encourages new growth, so keep using your herbs."

A couple weeks ago, Ben Moser was in town for the unfortunately acronymed NeMLA conference. We took advantage of this to host a special RTWCS event to talk to Ben about his biography of Lispector (Why This World, Oxford University Press), his new translation of The Hour of the Star, and the four Lispector books he's editing for New Directions.
The results were pretty entertaining, in part because Ben (who is also a contributing editor to Harper's and on the board of the National Book Critics Circle) is so damn entertaining, and in part because Lispector is one of the most interesting literary figures of this past century.

I meant to take the high road.... but I missed the exit.
^ I hope you like it as much as I do.
I wish someone would send me some squash - I lurves baked squash with a little cheese on top.
Squash is so plentiful and cheap right now, I love it. I always cook up some extra at this time of year and freeze it for later. Made a curried squash & walnut soup the other day that was heavenly.
And last night I made one of my standbys: squash quesadilla. Basically mash some squash (and I added a little soft tofu since I had extra to use up), season with garlic, green onion, cilentro (optional, since I know there are haters out there), and cumin, maybe finely diced red pepper if you have any on hand. Stir in some grated cheese. Spread between 2 whole wheat tortillas, and brush with oil; pan fry til golden on both sides. Cut into wedges and serve with your favourite condiment. Last night I had it with an amazing smoked tomato salsa that I got at a farmer's market. Mmmm.
No Thanksgiving thread so far this year I'm a big fan of American Thanksgiving, but sadly not celebrating this year - it's a Thursday, just another workday here - and usually look forward to reading everyone else's menus to live vicariously through our American friends.
That, and given that we have no hockey this season, means I've decided to use the 100th Grey Cup (Canadian Super Bowl) this Sunday as an excuse to create a themed food and drink menu. Sadly the teams and game location don't offer much inspiration. The hometeam and stadium are in Toronto, which doesn't have its own food identity or signature dishes. It's a very multi-cultural town, so you get everything in Toronto, but nothing comes to mind that is uniquely Toronto. Ideas welcome!! The other team is from Calgary - so steak and Caesars I guess. Not my favourite drink though, so I might whip up a bath of Earl Grey Martinis in honour of the Cup's namesake. Again, ideas welcome
I plan on making some carrot cake cookies to take over for Thanksgiving dinner. They look/sound delicious. They are actually cookie sandwiches with a cream cheese frosting in the middle. I hope they turn out!

OMG those sound decadently delicious!
I'm reminded of this version of carrot cake from Jamie Oliver - made it once, a bit gooey (likely my fault, not his - I'm not much of a baker) - but the lime icing was a really fresh twist.
Here is the link:
I plan on using Pumpkin Pie Spice instead of buying the nutmeg, ginger, etc. No point in wasting money on those spices which I will hardly use when the pie spice will work just fine.
"Michelle would never be caught with sausage grease staining her Vera Wang." - rfisher
Anyone have suggestions for sweet potatoes for Thanksgiving? I'm up for trying something new.
Pumpkin-Chestnut Soup (Easy and Divine)
You start with equal parts cooked pumpkin and chestnuts (can be baked or boiled, with an X cut into each nut). I bake the pumpkin and roast my own chestnuts, then take off the skin/shells and chop the pumpkin in fairly small pieces, the chestnuts into smaller pieces. Here we can get packaged chestnuts as well and they are preferable because you don't have to cook and shell them. But they are also way more expensive than fresh. And I don't know if this recipe would work well with canned pumpkin.
I had about five cups each of pumpkin and chestnuts for my last soup. First, I chopped a small onion and several cloves of garlic, then sauteed them in butter. Then I added the pumpkin and chestnuts and add chicken stock to the mix, which is very thick. I bring the stock to a boil and then turn the heat down to simmer - add a few bay leaves and some fresh ground pepper, simmer for five-ten minutes. Then puree in a food processor. The mix may still be too thick for soup, so you can thin it down with more chicken stock to the desired consistency. Vegetable stock would work just as well as chicken stock for vegetarians.
You can freeze some of the puree as well, then add more stock when you are ready to eat it.
This dish could be spiced all sorts of way but really needs nothing more, as the chestnuts have such a wonderful flavour. I usually add some shredded parmesan reggiano to the soup and serve with a baguette.
And I plan to try these sometime (but not for this Thanksgiving): http://www.foodnetwork.com/recipes/g...ipe/index.html
One of my friends makes these and a lot of people like them: http://southernfood.about.com/od/swe...r/bl30626r.htm
And there's always sweet potato pie, which has infinite variations.
This is my favorite way to have sweet potatoes (not a huge fan), but not for Thanksgiving: http://clarecooks.wordpress.com/2011...berry-ketchup/
"The secret to creativity is knowing how to hide your sources."-- Albert Einstein.
I tried this last week and it was really good, and simple to make: http://www.wegmans.com/webapp/wcs/st...oductId=348349
Two things are infinite: the universe and human stupidity, and I'm not sure about the universe.
A couple of months ago, Dr. Oz did a show on Gluten Allergies/Celiac Disease and had this lady on who does a blog called Bran Appetit. Which is a play on both her name, Brandy, and how she focuses on trying to come up w/healthy recipes that still taste good. Her blog is now one of my "I've got to see what's on there today" first time online stops of my day. We've tried a couple of Brandi's recipes since, but this one? I saw this over there, saw the words "Raspberry" and "Mocha" and BING!!
Bran Appetit ~ Raspberry Mocha Chip Snack Cake
The best part? It's all done in the Microwave and so easy peasy to make, it's hard to believe until you give it a shot. If you hadn't read the recipe before tasting this, and didn't know what you were eating wasn't decadent and not filled to the brim w/not so good ingredients before reading the recipe, you wouldn't believe it.
One heads up...You might have to play around w/the cooking time, as everyone's microwave cooks at different levels. We had to add, IIRC, 2 or 2 and a half more minutes of cooking time when Mom and I gave it a shot and have added that to our copy of this recipe. Just keep doing the toothpick in the centre of the dish test you're baking it in and go by 30 seconds until you get it baked.
Once done, enjoy the yummy nummy fudgy goodness that this is.
My cookies are coming out well. I am baking them today and going to ice them tomorrow before we leave. I am not thrilled with the icing but it will do.
"Michelle would never be caught with sausage grease staining her Vera Wang." - rfisher
the quick chicken fricassee recipe from america's test kitchen is delicious AND makes extra-delicious leftovers! try it! it's online
I don't bake a lot (too many rules!) ... but I think I'm going to have to try these cookies. And then try not to eat them all.
Coffee dulce de leche icebox cookies
Does anyone have any good tips on how to zazzle up the traditional green bean casserole?
I was toying with the idea of adding some diced onions (in addition to the French Fried Onions that are, lets face it, the ambrosia of the Gods...), but I'm not sure if that would be too OTT.
So many of the recipes on here look delicious, so I'm confident that you will all guide me in the right direction!
"You may know what you need, but to get what you want better see that you keep what you have." ~ Stephen Sondheim
What about some caramelized onions? Or maybe some meat such as ham diced up in there?

Part One, published yesterday, can be accessed here.
Agricultural investing, even with its shortcomings, is attracting interest from investors and from fund managers. The main reasons for are, for one, the rising global population and the dwindling available land; and secondly, the search for an inflation hedge and for real assets which are uncorrelated to financial markets.
And some managers argue that investing in food is not enough: buying the land that grows them - as a fixed resource - should be an integral part of an agricultural portfolio.
Investing in land
Many fund managers agree that agri investing is good for diversification, although not for long-only investing. And there is another thing they seem to agree on: investing in land is the way to go.
Research from consulting firm HighQuest Partners shows total cultivated land (globally) stands at 1,400 million hectares and has not changed in 20 years. An additional 80-100 million hectares of land will be needed to meet the anticipated demand for major crops in the next decade (see Opalesque Exclusive here).

The iPhone had trouble with repeating alarms back during the change to Standard Time

UPDATE: According to comments below, this affects **ONE TIME ALARMS* rather than recurring ones, so the opposite fix should work:
- Tap Clock
- Tap Edit
- Tap your alarm
- Tap Repeat
- Set a repeat interval
- Tap Save
iOS 4.2 fixed that bug. Will we have to wait for an iOS 4.3 this time? If you're experiencing the problem and if you've found any other fixes, let us know in the comments below or help trouble shoot in our iPhone Forums.
UDPATE 3: Engadget confirms it's one time alarms that are causing the problem, not repeats.
UPDATE 3: 9to5Mac says the bug fixes itself on January 3.
There are 75 comments. Add yours.
Christ, come on Apple. This is unacceptable.
I like how folks in Austrailia are the guinea pigs for everything time related...
Likewise, my alarm didn't go off. It's a one off alarm too.
Engadget is claiming this bug is relevant for one-time alarms only and not recurring. I'm not saying who is right, just noting the discrepancy. If you really need to get up I would set both.
Even my one time alarm didn't work today morning, tried deleting all set alarms but still not working, this is really frustrating!
Anyone finds a solution, kindly update.
I live in Cali...will this affect me.
Would a work-around for repeating alarm be just to create an appointment in Calendar that repeats, or is this affecting Calendar notifications as well?
(And I realize no one wants to see "Wake Up" on their calendar every day, but just a thought)
Never mind...as I was typing my post TiPb updated the original post
@Derek Kessler
It's an alarm bug chill out. It sucks but give me a break. Crap happens and no company is perfect and no product is perfect.
You've already cried the river, now build a bridge
Since a 2 week my iPhone 4 have a delay with the alarm. Have a delay of 30 min.
Happy New Year from Venezuela.
This isn't big at all. Angry droids on engadget are trying to attack this post. They have similar one up. Why don't you just use a real alarm or get a third party alarm.
buuuhhuuu, such a big deal =P
Hey listen up everyone, start sell all your iphones 'cause theres a major bug with the alarm at the very first day of the year!!!
PS: but the rest of the year you're safe!
Works fine for me. Even let the clock run from 11:58 to 12:00 and both a 12:01 and a 12:02 alarm went off.
I just started using repeat alarms last week. Lol I've managed to avoid both occurrences.
Just as noted above, same is happening in Brazilian iPhones.
Not a beep from my alarm so far.....
Hope it gets fixed before Monday.
Use it as an excuse to go late to work @Freo
I got the alarm bug here in Michigan as well.
Lol this is weird does anyone why this is happening?
I was just coming back to this to ask the same thing. I could see the daylight savings time bug but new years? Sucks because I use my phone as an alarm. Hope they fix it soon, if not it's not too big of a deal I'll find another app or source of alarm clock.
But enough of what I'll do if it's not fixed fast since no one cares nor should they...anyone know what's causing this?
Confirmed in Eastern US time zone.
can i find out right now like a test. let me try and I live in Miami FL
not working here in Miami FL :(
i just put it for 12:43AM and it didn't work let me try again
yeah is not working her in Miami FL
Guess I should read the whole article lol. Didn't see that it should fix itself Jan 3
Glad to see 9to5 Mac can see into the future.
Hopefully it's true
So Y2K was a problem because programmers took shortcuts and only used two-digits to specify the year. When Apple wrote iOS in thd middle of the decade, did they only use one digit? Is the Alarm set (internally) for 2001?
Happen in Malaysia as well
Still trying to logic out a reason it should start working again on the third, though.
I've had the problem in Paris, France, this morning. Late at work for the first day of the year :-(
Man, is a simple alarm clock THAT hard to program?! >:(
I guess I'm 'that guy,' mine worked fine this morning at 3:45.,,thank goodness!
Mine worked fine this morning. Up for work ok. (UK)
Same here.. One time alarm not ringing but repeated alarm works. hope they release a fix. SOON !
It happend to me here in Saudi just few minuets ago!!!
I'm really pissed and angry,,,I missed all my classes!!
I would agree that in the main this is a small problem and in the great scheme of things is not "Life threatening" but that is no excuse for not carrying out proper testing before releasing products.
In the Military an alarm not going off can seriously affect mission targets. Come on Apple, I love my iPhone but you need to get a grip, you're not Microsoft ;-)
Same problem here, South Wales, UK - alarm ( one off setting) has decided not to function overnight. Was staying with family so was my only available alarm. Woke up in time to get my daughter to work
In Portugal The same thing happened.The 6.45AM alarm (and others) did't go on. Arrived late at work! :(
"not "Life threatening" " But very serious in my case!
I've got an iPhone 4 on iOS 4.2.1, and I woke up at 11:00am here in the UK because the alarm failed to go off. It's not a big deal for me yet as I'm not due to go back to work until the 4th of Jan (one of the benefits of socialism lol). I tried the recurring alarm fix and it seems to work okay, it's not that big a deal really.
I tried changed the date to 3rd of January and its fixed automatically...
It is an easter egg by Apple's programmer.. Those guys just want iPhone user get a rest in holiday... LOL!
Good Work!! Happy New Year!!
I set the one time alarm last night, but was worried I would not get up (secondary to lack of sleep, 1.5 hr - new years party). I set a count down timer as a back up (thank you Lord), otherwise I would have missed my flight! I thought to myself, I must have been sleeping very heavy to not even hear the 1st alarm.
I just woke up to my alarm on time and it's not on repeat..?
Why would it automatically fix itself on Jan 3? Is there some logic in that?
The assumption that it fixes itself on January 3rd is dangerous. Obviously the logic in the alarm is flawed. Who's to say it won't stop working again in January 11th, or February 1st, or even January 1st 2012?
The frustrating part is that Apple will probably barely acknowledge the problem and not issue a fix for weeks or months.
Yeah. Thanks Apple. I didn't get up today.
The (not recurring) alarm worked fine on my iPhone 4 (OS 4.2.1) this morning, so the bug may not happen for everyone... Strange...
Yep thanks Apple 1hr late for work not happy !
Pretty sad such a huge successful company cannot make an alarm program app work...
Apple is not responsible for you being late to work. Dc if the alarm went off or not
Everyonebquit your whining
What the heck, Apple? Is it so %%%^%!!! hard to write a calendar app that can handle a new year???
As a software engineer who has dealt with these kinds of issued, I can tell you it is NOT that hard. Or it shouldnt be.
thank god I checked this before Sunday, I set my alarm on everyday and it seems to work now. THANKS TIPB <3 I would have been late to university tomorrow morning.
Mine works great!
Yep. My i 4 alarm quit functioning. I tried your suggested fix, but it didn't fix it
Happened to me too, but i didn't have to get up for anything important. My alarm was a recurring one though.
It just DOESNT work
Another reason jailbreaking is good. Let's developers fix things without waiting for apple to update.
Problem also affects my older 3G phone as well
My recurring alarm which was setup last year still works but any new single shot alarm doesnt. This is a disgraceful effort by apple. Such a simple piece of programming and they can't get it right.
Twice I have slept through the start of my shift due to apples incompetence to write a decent program... A simple alarm clock program..... Ffs... Get your game on apple!!
Am now using my old nokia permanently plugged in on charge next to bed as an alarm as apple has proved itself to be too #*%^ing unreliable...
iPhone = junk
One more for Apple to release ios 4.3 and screw up the jailbreak and unlock.Apple should be ashamed.
Surely the alarm going off makes the product unreliable. I mean come on thats what we all buy the iPhone for, for an alarm clock!
And why should apple be ashamed for screwing up the jailbreak? It voids their warranty, if they could find out the device was jail broken . It's a hack. They have nothing to be ashamed about. You just want to cry like a little baby.
I was 2 hours late for work! But after a bit of research I found that if I changed the date to the 3rd of January the alarm works! I know we shouldn't have to do this but if you need the alarm during the day that's the quick fix.
No wonder my alarms didn't work, I had four on aswell!
Just go in and set the time and day from automatic to manual and set it to at least Jan. 3rd. I tried everytign else and nothing worked. With today being Jan 1st and my phone thinking its the 3rd, the alarm works normally now.
I tried setting an alarm to test this "bug", but it still worked as it was supposed to. What gives?
three iphones, not one went off for the new years morning flight!
really pissed. this sucks, and my iphoney still isn't setting off alarms.
Steve Jobs just released a statement on alarm-gate:
"Who sets alarms on a weekend? It'll work Monday."
My single and recurring alarms have all worked. Running on 4.1. Maybe that's why?
Vince, awesome! Lol
If the alarm does in fact fix itself on the third...the only days affected are Saturday and Sunday...a very small minority will actually require the alarm to work on the weekend without losing their jobs lol
Did apple do this intentionally so that they could offer a fix which many will require and for many will require to unjailbreak their phones?
None of my alarms work.including one-time alarms. I have an iPhone 4 running 4.1
Alarms worked up until 2011
To the tune of Bob Dylan's "The Times They are a Changin"... "The iPhone's times it ain't a Alarmin"
Alarm didnt go off and was late to work ! Thanks alot apple!
I was in the cell business for over three years, nothing does better than that $5.00 alarm clock you can get at Walmart. I could't tell you how many phones had this same issue.
My repeat alarms are not working

Hurricanes are severe tropical storms that form in the southern Atlantic Ocean, Caribbean Sea, Gulf of Mexico and in the eastern Pacific Ocean. Scientists can now predict hurricanes, but people who live in coastal communities should plan what they will do if they are told to evacuate.
Prepare your family
Familiarize yourself with the terms that are used to identify a hurricane.
|Scale Number (Category)
|Sustained Winds (MPH)
|Storm Surge
|Minimal: Unanchored mobile homes, vegetation and signs.
|4-5 feet
|Moderate: All mobile homes, roofs, small crafts, flooding.
|6-8 feet
|Extensive: Small buildings, low-lying roads cut off.
|9-12 feet
|Extreme: Roofs destroyed, trees down, roads cut off, mobile homes destroyed. Beach homes flooded.
|13-18 feet
|More than 155
|Catastrophic: Most buildings destroyed. Vegetation destroyed. Major roads cut off. Homes flooded.
|Greater than 18 feet
Prepare Your Home
Prepare Your Business
Plan to stay in business, talk to your employees, and protect your investment.
Listen to Local Officials
Learn about the emergency plans that have been established in your area by your state and local government. In any emergency, always listen to the instructions given by local emergency management officials.
Find additional information on how to plan and prepare for a hurricane by visiting the following resources:
Encourage Electronic Payments for Federal Benefit Recipients
Keep in mind a disaster can disrupt mail service for days or even weeks. For those who depend on the mail for their Social Security benefits, a difficult situation can become worse if they are evacuated or lose their mail service – as 85,000 check recipients learned after Hurricane Katrina. Switching to electronic payments is one simple, significant way people can protect themselves financially before disaster strikes. It also eliminates the risk of stolen checks.
The U.S. Department of the Treasury recommends two safer ways to get federal benefits:
Signing up for direct deposit or the Direct Express card is a simple but important step that can help protect your family's access to funds in case the unthinkable were to happen. If you or those close to you are still receiving Social Security or other federal benefits by check, please consider switching to one of these safer, easier options today.

The folks at Penny Arcade and PvP sat down with R&D's Chris Perkins to play 4th Edition Dungeons & Dragons (for some of them, it was their very first game of D&D). How did it go? Well, they recorded the entire session—which we're thrilled to offer in episodic podcasts, along Penny Arcade comics commemorating the game!
In this episode, the players make their most difficult decision: What to name their characters. And although they don't quite meet the infamous rat king, they do experience the horrors of a rat swarm.
Warning: This podcast contains strong language.
To subscribe to the D&D podcast, follow these easy steps.
Once you subscribe to the podcast, iTunes will automatically check for new files and download them to your computer. To ensure that you get timely updates, set your Podcast Settings to check for new episodes every hour (the Settings button is in the lower-right corner of the iTunes window, or you can find it under Edit --- Preferences --- Podcast).
What is Podcasting?
Podcasting is delivering audio and video content on demand so that it can be enjoyed at the user's convenience. The main benefit of podcasting is that listeners can sync content to their media player and take it with them to listen whenever they want to. But they're not just for iPods...the files are ready to watch or listen to on just about any computer.

Once upon a time, eBay was a place known for scoring collectibles and the occasional hard-to-find band t-shirt, but the truth is its fashion offerings are pretty stellar. Years ago, Christina of Musings of a Fatshionista introduced me to the wonders of eBay fashion, and I haven't looked back since. From amazing new lingerie to vintage dresses to discounted well-known brands, I go to eBay whenever there's a specific piece I need to have and haven't found in any mainstream stores. One of my favorite outfits that Jay Miranda has ever worn includes the amazing Ralph Lauren silk pants she found on eBay.
I've put together a few great plus size options that are available right now, simply by searching for plus size [insert anything here]. Sometimes I'll include a fabric or style in my search, like "plus size leather" or "plus size sheer." It's super easy, it's just a matter of digging a little. Do you have any eBay searching secrets? Let me know in the comments!
