End of story - funny to watch the haters try to trump this stuff up.
Journal Sentinel TV and film critic Duane Dudek looks at life on the small and big screen, and some of the cool stuff on both.
Could Limbaugh show be dropped here?
Is there a chance that WISN-AM (1130) would ever drop the conservative talk show hosted by Rush Limbaugh?
Unlikely, considering the show is distributed by the station's owner.
But two stations have dropped Limbaugh this week, though the stations in Hawaii and in Pittsfield, Mass., are not in major markets, and their defections so far seem isolated.
Numerous advertisers also have withdrawn from the show.
WISN-AM officials have not responded to requests for comment on local listener and advertiser reactions.
The other stations' and advertisers' actions were in response to remarks Limbaugh made last week, calling a woman who testified before Congress in support of birth control a slut and prostitute.
Limbaugh's show is syndicated by Premiere, a subsidiary of the Clear Channel broadcast chain that owns many of the stations that carry Limbaugh, including WISN-AM.
The show is syndicated on about 600 stations nationwide.
On Tuesday, Clear Channel released a statement saying it was "committed to providing its listeners with access to a broad range of opinion and commentary without condoning or agreeing with the opinions, comments or attempts at humor expressed by on-air talent."
"We respect the right of Mr. Limbaugh, as well as the rights of those who disagree with him," according to a statement that appeared in the Wall Street Journal.
According to Talkers Magazine, Limbaugh's show reaches 15 million listeners a week and is the top-rated radio talk show in the nation. Second-ranked Sean Hannity has 14 million listeners.
Locally, his ratings picture is not so rosy.
Limbaugh's show on WISN-AM is 11th-ranked in its time slot. Local conservative talker Jeff Wagner, airing opposite on WTMJ-AM (620), is ranked second, with almost twice as many listeners.
WTMJ is owned by the Journal Broadcast Group, which like the Journal Sentinel, is owned by Journal Communications.

End of story - funny to watch the haters try to trump this stuff up.
Honestly, I didn't even know his show was broadcast in Milwaukee. I must be living in a bubble, or too busy enjoying life to listen to the ramblings of an irate old fool.
Typical Liberal media bias. Conservative radio gets bashed beyond belief. Yet, when a Liberal says something far worse, no backlash at all! Case in point, Bill Maher - http://tinyurl.com/89a4v9r
Being that the show panders to angry old men and the uneducated, this show will never be pulled. Stupid people who need someone else to tell them what to think will never go extinct.Hide replies
Well, they'll still have Hannity, Sykes and Wagner to tell them to hate other people
and you have Ed Schultz and Martin S on MSNBC and of course your politically correct "Bill Maher".....NOT!
Wow, who started the Bill Maher meme? Caw51, I would bet you what's left of my healthcare that you have never even watched Bill Maher.
Laker...you know squat!......your know-it-all sarcasm is so predictable
from one who can't think of an intelligent response.
JUST BOYCOTT HIS LOCAL SPONSORS.He is a complete horses rear end.
I cannot believe this man has not been fired yet.Hide replies
Why?.......Please do a web search on Bill Maher and what he called Sarah Palin the other evening...........Now what have you got to say?
Bill Maher is a comedian on a subscription only cable network, not a pundit on public airwaves - BIG DIFFERENCE.
meanwhile the ED show can call Laura Ingram a s@ut and still stay on the air...Bill Mahr
Bill Maher is on tv still today...
So, when Rush says something he is consider dangerous...funny the left gets away with everything.... I have heard many horrible things from both sides but and yes it's bad but a total double standard...Hide replies
Look like all the parrots have learned to say "Bill Maher" this week.
Nice, more false equivalency from the right. First of all, Ed Schultz was suspended, and 28 advertisers dropped him. He issued a sincere apology for his comments, and even changed the format of his show to remove some of the more incendiary elements.
Also Ed isn't broadcast on public airwaves, but rather on paid cable networks only. If Rush was on Sirius rather than on publicly owned AM radio airwaves I don't think people would care as much.
Meanwhile, Rush offered an insincere, snarky apology and was not suspended. BIG DIFFERENCE.
Ed Schultz apologized and took himself off the air. Russ Limpballs will not.
Let's call a Waaaaaaaaambulance for Rush!! The racist bigot call called on this by his sponsors, which is the only reason he "apologized". As they say in the military (something you or chickenhawk Rush know nothing about) Tango Sierra!!
To answer your question: No.
Duane Dudek = Shill for the left. Why not be honest about your leanings and write a story demanding his resignation?
The usual double standard in the lamestream media. Making something out of nothing. How many times have conservative commentators/politicians been called worse. And that's not even referring to the mysogynist Bill Maher who was relevant about 10 years ago.
The urinal is more likely to be dropped here, than limbaugh.Hide replies
And yet you are trolling around here...
I simply do not care what Rush has to say and refuse to listen to his simple minded, half-baked drivel.

Who will make the team? So many options! Multiple choice allowed, obv. as there's 3 spots...
Who will make the team? So many options! Multiple choice allowed, obv. as there's 3 spots...
Does the US Junior Champion automatically get a spot?
Caroline Zhang! She's got the experience!
BTW, 2006 Junior champ Megan Hyatt went to 2006 Junior Worlds as the 1st alternate after Katy Taylor declined the assignment and decided to go only to Four Continents (she was initially assigned to both competitions).
I will be very interested to see whether or not 8 different U.S. ladies (and 9 different U.S. men) are assigned to 2011 Four Continents, Junior Worlds, and Worlds.
Let's see how Christina Gao, Yasmin Siraj and Kristiene Gong all fare at the Junior Grand Prix Final next week...
Last edited by Sylvia; 12-02-2010 at 04:58 PM.
I'm torn between 5 girls-Hicks (or whoever will win jr ladies), Lam, Siraj, Agnes Z (depending on whether she gets 4cc or worlds) and Gao (same here)
Hopefull thinking, but I picked Gao, Hicks, and Kulgayko. I think Courtney will win the Jr. title this year unless she has a meltdown. She's made a huge progress this year, and I really want her to do well at the Nationals, and then to be assigned to Jr. Worlds.
It wouldn't surprise me if Agnes gets the nod to go to JW, knowing the USFS, but I'd rather see her at 4CC if she doesn't make the world team.
I picked Gao, Siraj and Lam.
Zawadzki, Siraj, and Lam.
I'm assuming Gao goes to senior worlds and/or 4CC. If Agnes goes to Worlds and/or 4CC, then the next person to take her place would probably be Cesario, Baga if she's recovered from her injury by then, or Kulgeyko if she wins the junior title (which I totally think she can)/whoever does win the junior title. Usually the skaters sent to Junior Worlds skate at senior nationals, except for the junior champion if she put up an impressive score (Agnes last year). Siraj I think is on the team for sure so long as she skates decently well at nationals. The second spot will probably go to another senior lady, and the third the junior champion.
I wouldn't be surprised if USFSA assigns Gao and Zawadzki to 4CC even if neither makes the World team, I guess they could do 4CC and Jr. Worlds, but if the USFSA wants to spread the wealth, then the World Team, 4CC Team, and Junior Worlds team could all be comprised of different skaters. I could forsee this happening if the results are close at nationals. For example if the results were say:
1.) Nagasu
2.) Flatt
3.) Wagner
4.) Gao
5.) Zawadzki
6.) Czisny
7.) Siraj
8.) Lam
9.) Dobbs
10.) Cesario
Then I could see the USFSA sending Nagasu and Flatt to Worlds, Wagner, Gao, and Zawadzki to 4CC, and Siraj, Lam, and either Dobbs or the junior ladies Champion (say Kulgyeko) to Junior Worlds.

3 girls make the junior world team.
who, so many skaters, Gao, Agnes, Vanessa, Yasmin, Kiri, Kristen, Samantha -not to mention who skates junior level this year. those are senior choice let alone junior, but Gao, Agnes, has a good chance at making world team with Vanessa , Yasmin, Kiri, without side hopes.
i can see Gao and Agnes both finishing in top 6 let out top 4
I said Gao, Siraj, and Lam.
Gao for jumps, Lam for spins, and Siraj for PCS. I dont really enjoy watching Sawadzki but morese than Flatt. and I'll say Caroline Zhang for alternate (she is young enough)
Gao is like a no duh for the juniors she can compete with the russian juniors but she isnt the key to three spots to worlds as of now. I see so much potential in Siraj especially as an artistic skater, like a Czisny with not as pretty spins/spirals but stronger jumps. Lam has spins that blow my mind. They arent like Czisny quality but the centering is great, but her jumps are so tiny. Along with Gao, Siraj and Lam are going to do well as seniors and they're going to need the experience.
Hate me if you want about that Zawadzki part. i do like her music though. I'm predicting two years of positive improvement for Zhang. To keep her ranking up i think USFS can send her to jr worlds as the alternate.
send Dobbs, Zawadzki, and Wagner to 4CC. Dobbs has yet to shine. Wagner gets her points too. Plus, Wagner can prove that she can be part of the world team next year (she hasnt really proven herself here).
and then worlds i would have to pick nagasu for sure, and then chose flatt or czisny depending on how they do at gpf and nationals
I didn't vote for her, but Courtney Hicks could definitely be a factor, especially if she continues to perfect her 3F+3T. She scored just under 100 points for her FS at Coasts.
Cesario is on the upswing, so I feel like she has a decent shot at Junior Worlds, especially if Gao and/or Zawadzki are sent to senior worlds and/or 4CC instead.

Imagining iOS 5
While in previous years Apple has debuted products like iPhone, MacBook Air, and iPad in January and done an iOS preview in March, this year's iPad 2 launch event is March 2, leading some to believe Apple will eschew a separate event and introduce iOS 5 on the same day. So, just in case Apple goes for the 1-2 combo punch, just in case Scott Forstall takes the stage to "blow away" developers and users with what's next, we want to be ready.
Apple begs the question -- what will 2011 be the year of? We'll give you our want list, after the break.
Apple ID activation
Right now before you can use a new iPhone, iPod touch, or iPad you (or the store where you bought it) have to tether it to iTunes on Mac or Windows and activate it. How 2007. Android just needs a Gmail address. webOS just needs a Palm profile. Facebook phones (you know they're coming!) will just need your @facebook.com address. Apple has millions and millions of iTunes IDs, Apple IDs, and MobileMe IDs. Let us use those -- or better yet, unify those first and then let us use our unified Apple ID -- to activate our iOS devices.
Moreover, just like when you login to MobileMe for the first time on a new Mac, let iOS immediately check the cloud and download our preferences. Let us type in that ID and get our mail, calendar, and contacts accounts, Wi-Fi setups, and all our other Settings synced down to our device.
If we lose our iPhone or simply update to a new one, we should be able to login with our Apple ID and immediately have our phone restored to a personalized, working state. Sure huge media, apps, games, etc. will still require iTunes tether to sync, but give us a basic on-device, online way to start.
(Seeing as how the facial recognition login is still likely a few years off...)
Contact and status aggregation
Once we have the one Apple ID to rule them all, we need a saner way of handling all the other IDs and accounts. Facetiously I'd say just copy webOS' Syngery. Seriously, however, between email, IM, Twitter and Facebook status, contact information, and all the different online stores with often conflicting data it's annoying and unworkable to keep them all sandboxed and separate. We've been asking for this on iOS for years now as well. (Don't make Chad bring up those old iChat Mobile patents again!)
If we know a contacts online account, let us enter it. Then pull in their profile information and status, silo it so it stays internally separate, but present it back to us in a unified view.
Facebook is presenting email, IM, SMS, etc. in a unified Facebook message system now and while it's still a little kludgy it shows how the boundary between different communication forms are breaking down. Apple is great at "hiding the pipes" (the backend data sources that bring information into their apps) and showing the user only a single clean, consistent UI. They're doing that now with unified inbox in Mail -- regardless of which account an individual message is in, we see them all in the unified inbox. It would be great to see Apple expand this not just across email accounts but across protocols.
If I bring up Leanna, let me see her latest emails, Twitter and Facebook status, IM's, SMS, etc. all as "messages" (hey, let 3rd parties hook in so I can see Foursquare, Instagram, etc. if she offers them and I approve them on my device.) Then thread them and let me reply back to them automagically using the proper protocol.
App state sync
Taking it one step further, right now if we use an app on iPhone and then go and use the same app on iPad -- even if it's a universal binary -- there's no persistency of state. Unless the developer is syncing on their own or with a popular web service like DropBox, there's no way to get to your latest data from different devices. Apple could provide a consistent method for doing this.
We've asked for it before when it comes to games -- let Game Center sync our game progress between devices. If we get to a certain level in Infinity Blade on iPhone we want to pick up iPad and keep going from that level. But really, a general app state sync API would be even better. When iOS saves the information locally, push it up to the cloud and the next time the app is launched on any device, check the cloud for the latest state.
App store upgrades
Originally I wanted App Store trials, subscriptions, and upgrades. To be able to download an app or game, try it for a short period of time, then decide to buy it and if the developer offers a really compelling upgrade, pay for it without having to buy a whole new "2" app would be fantastic for users and developers alike. Over time, with freemium and $0.99 apps with in-app purchases the need to demo has lessened for me. And Apple has already announced subscriptions -- to much controversy, so we won't retread that again here. But upgrades are still needed.
iTunes knows what apps we've bought. We know it knows because when we try to buy a paid app we've already bought, iTunes tells use we've already bought it and that we can download it again for free. Why can't the same system be used to determine, for example, that we've already bought Tweetie 1 and hence we can download Tweetie 2 at an upgrade price. Apple could allow developers to set that upgrade price in iTunes Connect, an extension of how they can set universal sale prices today. We've seen some strange screens pop up that seem to indicate Apple is at least experimenting with the idea, but why not pull the trigger? Again, it's more overhead for Apple but the customer experience boost would be enormous.
File handling
Similarly, it's still vexing to try and get your documents onto iOS, to make sure you have the latest version, to be able to edit it and seamlessly save it back to the device and cloud. For years we've asked for a Mobile Finder app, or more recently a Files app, that would work like a system-wide repository for documents the way Photos works for videos and images.
Most users don't need file system access the same way they don't need everything running in the background all the time. What they need is the functionality file access provides in a way that's robust and usable on mobile devices.
In that way a Files.app would give us access all our documents the same way we go to the Photos app or call up the picture picker in a 3rd party app today. (Yes, pretty much what Apple does in the online-only iDisk app.)
Good on-device handling is only one piece of the puzzle, however. We need to be able to round-trip the documents from our Windows or Mac PC and our Google or other cloud. Right now we can do some of that, sort of, in a painful and convoluted way. Apple is addressing some of this in the new Mac OS X Lion preview with AirDrop -- a way to move files between Macs as easily as iOS moves video and print jobs with AirPlay and AirPrint. There are also hints of improved WebDAV-based sharing in OS X Lion Server. But that all still sounds disjointed and overly complex.
Something that combines the Files.app idea with AirDrop, supported on iOS, Mac, and PC, and able to sync with a far more robust, speedy, and reliable iDisk or WebDAV would be grand. While I don't expect Apple to include support for DropBox, Box.net, Google Docs, etc. letting the user configure them in a WebDAV-like manner would be outstanding.
Open Files.app. Add a sync source if you want one and have one. Let any app, including iWork, Docs to Go, QuickOffice, etc. open, edit, and save back the files. And keep them in sync. (Oh, and add similar cloud sync options to Photos.)
System-wide Voice Control
Apple introduced basic VoiceControl a couple years ago in iOS 3 for iPhone 3GS letting us place calls or play music. Google trounced this with system-wide voice commands in Android starting with the Nexus One last year. Apple needs to take the lead back here. There are lots of rumors that Apple will use their SIRI acquisition to bridge the gap but SIRI isn't voice control any more than it's a search engine. It uses voice recognition to tie into popular, existing search engines to provide basic, intelligent services for users. Steve Jobs has called it Artificial Intelligence. SIRI could be a robust extension of voice control and a way to "synergize" multiple sources of online data, but Apple needs to deliver the underpinnings and that's new, home-grown tech. (Unless Woz didn't just misspeak and Apple really did secretly buy Nuance...)
It's much-needed tech, however, so here's hoping Apple delivers it.
Elegant notifications
Apple's current badge, sound, and popup notification system -- virtually unchanged since 2007 -- is so unwieldy that it's difficult to imagine Apple built it knowing 3rd party apps and push notifications were in the pipeline. Android is less obtrusive, webOS far more elegant, and while Jailbreak has offered several interesting alternatives for iOS it's time for Apple to pick up the ball on this one.
The status quo is untenable. If you're on the phone or playing a game and one -- or so help you many -- popups appear you have to view them immediately or dismiss them forever and you can't even hang up your call or do any basic screen command while that model dialog remains on screen. It's like being a prisoner. And if you dismiss it out of annoyance you may not even remember what it was for later, and you have no workable way of finding out.
More than just a better system for staking and packing notifications, we need a better way to interact with them. Like Ally said, BiteSMS for Jailbreak runs rings around the current iOS Messages app. That might not be the model Apple implements, but it should be the spirit.
It's the last truly gaping, galling deficiency in iOS. It's the last huge item other mobile OS use to poke fun. It just has to be fixed. Fortunately Apple hired the man who designed the webOS notification system so that's reassuring.
It took 3 years for copy/paste, 4 years for multitasking -- 5 should be notifications.
Theme Store
Georgia said this well; Apple doesn't need to do themes the way Cydia or BlackBerry does. At least not at first. They could provide their own set of 4-6 themes to start the same way they offer templates in Keynote or Pages. They could sell them in a Theme Store and once the process was hardened, slowly open it up to 3rd parties.
There's a lot of money to be made in themes. Apple likes money. Users like themes. It's simple math, even if implementing it is complex.
I don't think we'll see it in iOS 5 but hey, we'll need something to look forward to for iOS 6...
iWork for iPhone, iMovie for iPad, a real iPhoto or Garageband for either... we might see more Apple apps as well. Photobooth is heavily rumored and seems like a given. Maybe a new Maps using Google new vector tiles and Placebase or other differentiating technology would be great. Even at the amazing pace Apple has updated and released a lot of the iOS apps there's still so much that could be done with the built-in and App Store apps that we could easily fill another post. (And likely will!) but this is another area to watch come iOS 5.
NFC, maybe in a discreet mobile payments app, could appear but that feels more like a WWDC and iPhone 5 announcement.
Like we said in Imagining iPad 2, while Apple is secretive they're also cyclical and subject to the laws of physics and economics, which means they're somewhat predictable. This year's iOS will fill some gaps, shave off some rough edges, surprise and delight us with a few killer features, and disappoint us with a couple inexplicable misses.
If Apple shows off iOS 5 tomorrow our guess is 2011 will be the year of notifications, cloud, and a lot more. What are your guesses?
There are 54 comments. Add yours.
I don't think we will see iOS 5 being revealed tomorrow.
You missed the #1 thing for those of us who use the camera a lot: Camera Roll organization! Everybody talks (correctly) about notification improvements being sorely overdue, but that's not nearly as big a mess as a camera roll with 1000+ photos and zero organization.
You're absolutely right! I hope they fix this soon! But I think that tomorrow will also be an iOS 5 preview with a major release this summer. Just you wait and see.
There's an app for this if you jailbreak. It's amazing.
I completely agree .why can't we take pica at the beach and have just a folder for those pics.why do we have to scroll through all the pics just to get there.
If you look at past iOS keynotes, they were 1.5 hours long - just for iOS. As much as I want to see iOS 5 I don't see them revealing it at tomorrow's event.
I'm thinking thay whay Apple means about is this year about tabled device. They'll talks about their iPad 2.
And I'm also expect iOS 4.3 will bring 3G facetime call (without jailbreak)
One of my top feature requests is the ability to add fonts to an iOS device. the current iWork suite on iPad is a non-starter for any serious content creation without the ability to use fonts other than the limited set included with iOS
How about redoing or adding new features to the iPhone Message app. I've been asking Apple ever since the original iPhone to have a button to stop the messaging from sending just in case you screwed up the message or you sending the message to the wrong person. I know most of us or maybe all of us screwed up on a message and sent it. Also add text templates and schedule functions to the app.
So what you are saying is that you want Apple to buy BiteSMS and integrate that into the Messages app. BiteSMS allows for an up to 3 second delay when sending a text. The delay looks like a red version of the "Sending" SMS progress bar, and once it fills, the message is then really sent.
good best of list.
the thing I'd add is more customization of settings and triggered profiles. apple could do location or wifi network or time-based profiles of any combination of the above.
It's wishful thinking for me that we'll see iOS 5 tomorrow... however I'm guessing it'll be much like last year where they held the iOS preview event in the first week of April and the iPad event in March.
Way to sum up the dreamlist. My biggest "want" is wireless sync
dude its safe to say that if apple doesnt have a new notification system in iOS 5... theres going to be a riot.
i think they will reveal the ipad 2 and that the new data center (skynet) is open for business!1 it fits with what they announced a week ago that they will stop selling mobile me
so they will reveal the new improved free(to compete with google) mobile me
Aside from the Apple ID activation thing, I doubt ANY of these will be included in iOS 5. I'm prepared to be underwhelmed.
A free navigation app made by apple!!!! that will stop most of the jailbreaks! and a better notification system
I would like to see a profile manager. Having to go into the phone and turn off notifications is a bit old fashioned. I want to push a button and have it change my settings
What about Airplay streaming in third party apps? That's my big wish. I use Zumocast and Airvideo as well as some photo apps that I would love to send to apple tv or other devices. Also print support for non- HP printers.
I could be mistaken but I'm pretty sure that 3rd party airplay is being enabled in 4.3.
Wow at that whack list it's way better stuff i would like
I want multi user support, its a pain sharing the ipad around with others in the house. I want my own desktop/apps/settings.
Please no themes. They are a nuisance. I want things unified and easy.
You don't want it, you don't have to use it. Just like ability to change wallpapers, you can stick with what Apple gave you or you can change it. Having the OPTION though would be nice.
I would love to see an official call block application, something similar to iBlackList. I get so many marketer calls on my cell and there's no way to block them. I called Verizon and they don't offer that capability. Jailbreak is required for iBlackList.
I'm not asking for much, just the ability to customize my freakin SMS tones and I would be pretty happy for now.
What I want for iOS 5:
- ability to customize SMS tones
- wireless sync
- improved notification
- ability to organize/folder photos collection
you write:
"It took 3 years for copy/paste, 4 years for multitasking — 5 should be notifications."
it did not take 4 years for multitasking. the iphone has only existed for 3-1/2 years. the 4th anniversary of its debut is this coming july. it took 3 years.
3+ years is too long to get basic functionality that Android and WebOS have been offering for years. I love my ViPhone, but implementing basic changes have really taken a long time.
Android and WebOS haven't been out for 'years'.
If it weren't for iOS, Android would have been copying PocketPC.
I have a webOS phone and the key factors that keep me are notifications and aggregated contacts/calendar. I'm probably going for an iPad 2 anyway because notifications and aggregation are less of an issue on a tablet. I can't see myself getting an iPhone until this is solved and I have a 4G option on an LTE network.
Hopefully iPhone 5 will deliver and I can retire my Pre.
I got tired of rumors and imagining,so I sold my 3GS and bought a Dell Streak with android.I can understand now when people say how closed the iPhone is.
I can do whatever I want with my phone without waiting months for a jailbreak.
I'm all the way with you on the files.app. I wanted it after I got DocsToGo. Although that application has it's own file manager , I have to remember to sync that separately. However , I sync my iPhone every day and that's something I'll remember to do.
The second I read that Lion was getting AirDrop , I requested that they do it between two or more iOS devices.
I've used voice control with an EVO and it doesn't work as well as voice control for iPhone does. I know the iPhone has limited functions so figuring out what I said wouldn't be difficult. However in terms of finding contacts, it can be less accurate , especially if a name is pronounced differently and the phone pronouces it another way. I see a problem with searching for completely random things using universal voice control for the iPhone , like to use a search engine.
The only REALLY important thing for me is the notifications!!! Geez! Please Apple! Learn from WebOS and Android! EVEN BLACKBERRY! The new BB OS6 has a pull down menu with notifications and previews! I really hate doing something and someone on their blackberry with the enter key gets enter-happy and sends me:
What's up?
at the park
with the dog
and we're
And for every message I get a darn popup!! LOL! Please! FIX THIS APPLE!
It should have looked like this (each new line is -): Hi! -What's up? I'm -here -at -the park with -the dog and -we're having -a great -time!
Considering that the other smart phones have/had these features already, I imagine iOS 5 will finally bring these to iPhone.
"Users like themes..."
Uuuh, I'm a user and I don't like themes... :P
What I really hope comes with iOS5 is the ability to use custom ringtones for SMS and other notifications. Tri-tone is getting old as fudge.
My twitter username is in Elegant notifications on this LOL
"Begs the question"... I don't think that expression means what you think it means.
Lock screen customization + weather in the status bar = the only reasons I jailbreak. I don't want to have reasons to jailbreak.
How about auto unlock out of your holster like the Berry. It takes too damm long to make a call on an iphone
Click/ swipe/ tap/ tap / tap again. Or speed dial on all keypad numbers. Or home button click to activate phone.
As marvelous as the iphome is for other things it still is a horible phone
I assume the image in the notifications section is from LockInfo. How does one get the Favorites images in there? After seeing that image I checked. I can't seem to locate how to make it work or see an addon that would implement it.
I feel like the notifications system needs the most attention. Apple you utilize their technology with finger gestures to give users access to a notification drawer, much like Android. Coming from an Android device, I miss the extras that Android throws in. Folders for photos are another addition that would compliment the wonderful interface Apple offers.
Multi Touch Gestures! Love them in the developers beta.
I would personally like to see Apple develop / implement an iChat app for all of the iOS devices available. Something where all iOS users can have their own chatting and instant messaging platform like what you get out of BBM from RIM. I know without a shadow of a doubt that Apple could develop a killer app for something like this and combine it with Facetime or whatever for the video chatting capabilities as well. I just think if they went ahead and made something like that, it would satisfy a lot of iPhone users and also draw in some of those stubborn BlackBerry users who cling to their BBM.
I also have to agree that Themes is probably the next biggest thing Apple could do for the iOS platform, and I'm really hoping that's something they're taking into consideration for next years software update. I think people would jump at the chance to be able to customize the look and feel of their iPhone's UI and I personally feel like that's the only thing Android has over it.
My two cents anyways.
I don't know if anyone commented it here, but I have more than one account and it's pretty annoying to update. I mean, "you don't have other updates with this account, login, password, this account is only valid in..., check for updates" is a pain.
Forget AirPlay, I want wireless syncing with iTunes. If iTunes is open and the phone is nearby, why can't i sync it without getting a bit of wire out and plugging them both in?
I hope for a notification LED
Full VoiceControl, unified notifications system for all apps and messages (probably using the space on the multitasking screen, the static app image with multitasking bar bellow does nothing there!) and wireless syncing.

The Environment and Sustainability
Sustainability. A defining philosophy from day one.
As organizations seek out business partners with a proven record of environment responsibility, Océ is proud to be one of the few companies for whom sustainability has been a defining philosophy from the very start. From the founding of the company in 1877, Océ has established a tradition of environmental stewardship that continues to raise the bar across the industry.
In 1927, Océ invented the eco-friendly ammonia-free diazo copying process for technical documents. In 1958, Océ launched a new production process that reduced the use of solvents by 80 percent. In 1975, we received Europe's first award for research in environmental protection. Océ printing and copying systems have met the criteria of the United Nations Global Compact since 2002. Today, we are one of the first companies to be RoHS compliant. And in 2006, Océ received FedEx Kinko's Best in Sustainability/Environmental performance award at their annual supplier summit.
Many of Océ's printing, copying and scanning systems have received Germany's Blue Angel award, given to products that meet a high standard of performance for efficient energy consumption, use of recycled paper and recyclable materials and that meet strict emissions regulations. Increasingly, sustainability is about how a company does business. Océ has employed sustainable practices for 130 years, and continues to build on that commitment every day:
Océ manufactures sustainable printing systems
Océ optimizes its manufacturing processes to produce printers and scanners in a sustainable way
Océ products and services enable Océ customers to operate in a sustainable manner
Océ has reduced paper consumption testing by 90 percent since 1995 and set up a dedicated asset recovery department that organizes the flow of returned goods to maximize their re-use value
Océ is an ENERGY STAR partner
Océ keeps packaging to an absolute minimum and uses recyclable materials whenever possible
Océ meets stringent standards for quality and environmental responsibility through procedures that minimize energy consumption, emissions, and waste

Im constantly struck by how so many otherwise intelligent people suddenly sound like idiots when discussing issues related to money. A number of these people are certainly not idiots theyre accomplished business owners and/or people who have achieved considerable success at running businesses. So if they arent as stupid as the words theyre saying makes them sound, one can only assume that they think the people hearing/reading their words are stupid enough to believe what theyre saying.
Yes, Im referring primarily to the Twins front office.
It was over a month ago that the Twins held a press conference and made owner Jim Pohlad, President Dave St. Peter and General Manager Terry Ryan available to the mainstream media. Predictably, the topic of the teams potential 2013 payroll came up. Also predictably, the Twins brass was non-committal. Heres an excerpt from the story written at the time by MLB.coms Twins beat reporter Rhett Bollinger (click here for the link):
Weve never told anybody they have to spend X dollars or that they cant spend whatever they are recommending, Pohlad said. So it could go up, it could go down. Its whatever Terry tells us. Weve talked about spending in that 50 percent of revenue, but it doesnt mean Terry will spend that.
Ryan said that the payroll situation will be fluid and that it should not hinder him from acquiring the starting pitching the club needs to compete next season.
I think we can quit fooling ourselves that money is the answer, Ryan said. Were going to have to make good decisions to create a pitching staff thats going to give us a chance.
Well, Im glad they put that question to rest, arent you? Im so glad to know that money doesnt matter.
We dont know whether the Twins could have made a deal with the Marlins for the same package of players that they dealt to Toronto last week. Theres absolutely no doubt, however, that the addition of Josh Johnson, Mark Buehrle and Jose Reyes would have gone a long way toward addressing the biggest holes in the Twins lineup and the level of players the Jays sent back to Miami certainly could have been made available by the Twins.
So why wasnt it the Twins that made the deal? I dont know. But its such a friggin relief to know that whatever the reason was, it wasnt money!
The Twins also lost Scott Baker to the Cubs last week. Baker got a good deal. $5.5 million guaranteed with another $1.5 million in incentives on a straight one year deal. According to the Star Tribunes beat reporter, Joe Christensen, the Twins were very interested in keeping Baker, but wanted an option year for 2014, which Baker wouldnt agree to. Again, it makes me feel so much better to know that the reason Baker wont be wearing a Twins uniform in 2013 had nothing whatsoever to do with money.
Heres something Ive learned from working in Corporate America for the past 30+ years: Whenever someone in senior management tells you, Its not about the money, that means that money is exactly what its all about.
As Twins fans, weve become programmed to just accept the company line. Weve been hearing it since the days of Calvin Griffith and on through the Pohlad era at the Metrodome. Sure, there were hints that having a new stadium and the revenues it would generate might change things, but by and large, the fan base has continued to just accept the, well spend 50% of revenue on payroll, line of crap that has always come out of the Twins offices.
It has become second nature, to the point where Twins fans seem to almost think thats how every Major League team does business and we act surprised when other teams behave differently.
The Tigers went to the World Series, but clearly needed to improve at a corner outfield position. They looked for the best option on the market, moved quickly and signed Torii Hunter to a deal that seemed like it was a little excessive, given his age. How can they do that? Wont that mean their payroll might exceed half of their revenues? Ah, but theyve got an old owner who wants to win a World Series before he dies, so thats why they can do what the Twins wont, right?
The Blue Jays saw themselves needing much the same kind of help that the Twins need. They agreed to take on more years of higher salaries than they might have really been comfortable with, but they made the deal because they want to compete. But thats ridiculous, right? Boy, theyll sure regret having Buehrle and Reyes on the payroll toward the back end of those contracts because in a couple of years, their payroll might exceed half their revenues! Ah, but theyre owned by a giant Communications conglomerate and thats why they arent limited as to payroll.
Ive got a news flash, folks. Every team starts the offseason with a self-examination that identifies what their biggest needs are. The next step for most teams that are committed to being competitive is to identify the best options available via free agency or trades to meet the identified needs. Unless youre the Rays (who have a whole bunch of financial issues unrelated to the quality of their team), your front office knows that the quality of the product on the field drives revenue.
But if youre a Twins fan, youve been conditioned not to ask who would best fill the teams needs, but who would fit in to the Twins designated payroll limit. Thats because the Twins have historically seemed oblivious to the basic business tenet that product quality drives revenues.
Theyve brainwashed fans in to believing that the only reasonable way to operate a business is by subscribing to the theory that a drop in revenues last year means they must cut payroll next year. Its time for fans to become deprogrammed from that mindset and let the Twins know that their fan base is not as stupid as the club has treated them as being.
Maybe Im being premature with this criticism. After all, its still early in the offseason and the Winter Meetings are still a couple of weeks away. Terry Ryan may actually sign honest-to-goodness legitimate starting pitchers to fill the Twins needs in that area, regardless of the cost. He may make a trade or two that will improve the middle infield, even if it means making his bosses nervous. Maybe hell prove that his words about payroll not hindering him from doing his job were more than just more of the same BS weve heard for the past decade.
But until the Twins start ACTING like money doesnt matter, they should stop saying it. It just makes them look like fools or like they think thats what we are.

OTHER! Please state, and please forgive, if I didn't mention someome/somthing remarkable!
Sarah didn't capitalize on her win at the insistence of her father, IIRC.
In my spare time, I like to interview figure skating legends.
I voted OTHER: Trixi Shuba 1972 Sapporo.
I don't know why she is not in the poll. Either I am too old or you know something I don't.
I think Sarah Hughes is the anti-favorite on FSU, with Evan Lysacek a close second. But in my opinion, both of those gold medals were 100% deserved and I am a big fan of both skaters as well as those particular performances.
My personal least favorite of the list is G&P. I think G&P's gold in 1994 should have gone to Torvill and Dean and their gold in 1998 should have gone to Krylova and Osviannikov. Just my opinion.
i know of few people who don't like sarah who aren't associated with the fsu blog
I never liked G&P so very much either, but I'm miles from calling them unbeloved, because I know they have millions of fans. Still, I'm amazed and a little shocked how persistently it's stated that their OGM from '94 should have gone to T/D. I never thought that. To U/S, maybe, but I wouldn't say the gold for G/P was undeserved.
Sale/Pelletier and Hughes are a close tie...but watching this hilarious video again tipped me over the edge to vote for S/P : http://www.dailymotion.com/video/xkq...?search_algo=2
I think a lot of people disliked Hughes for winning gold because she wasn't a gold-caliber skater, while the two most dominant figures in skating during these quadrennials (Slutskaya and Kwan) never won gold. I too thought she shouldn't have won gold that year, but Sarah was always a class act.
Well as far as "most unbeloved Olympic championship wins" for me personally, I'd have to say Anett Potzsch of Germany; Grishuk/Platov whose pairing I was never fond of altho' they were excellent ice dancers -- I agree with those who posted earlier re the teams who they would have preferred win OGM over G/P; T/M in 2006 --great lines in the great Russian tradition, but zero connection with each other and the audience (although they both seem to have very sweet and kind personalities, for me they never quite reached the level of greatness that they had the potential for reaching -- so what that they won OGM, they never actually transcended boring skating). I also was never fond of Navka/Kostomarov's ice dancing -- I thought their OGM win was and obviously political.
I think Elvis deserved to win OGM in 1994 (especially since Boitano and Browning took themselves out of the running by not skating well overall -- Browning had the best choreographed free program). I wasn't unhappy for Urmanov medaling, because I like him. I was just confused about why the judges felt he deserved gold -- I think Urmanov was confused too, and he ended up unfairly paying for that premature win.
I think Michelle Kwan should have won OGM in 1998 (but that's history and a lesson still being learned) -- doesn't make me feel Tara is "most unbeloved" however. As far as Sarah H, I always thought she and her sister were pleasant to watch and talented overachievers, but the judges had shown in the '02 Olympic sp that they did not think that highly of Sarah's skating. The pressure was off for Sarah in the fp as she had nothing to lose. She went out there to enjoy herself and the moment which helped her a great deal. While she skated an "uplifting" program with abandon, she also underrotated her jumps which wasn't being scrutinized and marked down at the time. Ultimately, I feel Sarah's win was heavily influenced by the ongoing scandal that year in pairs -- the judges were on notice that a "perfect" skate would have to be rewarded. Otherwise possibly Slute or Kwan would have edged out the win in judges' overall marks. But granted that Kwan, Slute, and Sasha allowed themselves to be psyched out -- they all three faltered under nerves.
I don't remember "Schwarz" at all. The year Potzsch won over Fratianne, Dagmar Lurz won bronze. Don't remember Lurz at all either. In looking back at the list of winners historically, I find it interesting that in the 1970s and 1980s there were a lot of "forgettable"/ "forgotten" European skaters who were medalling at Worlds and Olympics.
I guess the popularity of these "forgettable" polls is just the fact of the off-season. I don't "unbelove" any of these champions as people, since I never knew/ don't know them personally. Altho' I never liked Navka's or Grishuk's personalities that I perceived from afar.
I always enjoyed and still enjoy watching Jamie and David skate (I only voted for them in this poll b/c I think they probably inspired this poll in many respects here on FSU). The votes S/P have received in those ubiquitous survivor polls here are very obviously for the most part "payback" by the fans who heatedly dislike them for all kinds of reasons which have been itemized with seeming malicious glee and with hypocritical justifications.
Case in point, the linked Saturday Night Live S/P parody (those SNL comics are a laugh riot). That just by looking at that old skit, a poster was prompted to vote for S/P in this poll is also hilarious.
Last edited by aftershocks; 07-27-2012 at 04:21 PM. Reason: spelling correction
Olympic Champions should not be getting 10th place ordinals.
It wasn't influenced by the pairs event. Irina had four 1st place ordinals in the long program. No one was making sure Sarah won anything. In fact, I believe a few judges had Sarah first and Michelle second, which would make Michelle the winner. I never understood why Irina's four 1st place ordinals were never a topic of discussion regarding the judging of the ladies event. Sarah should have had all 1st place ordinals for the long program and Michelle and Irina should have had 2nds and 3rds-I don't see how that can be argued at all. That whole event, if you look further into the results, was a mess LOL.
I believe if one more judge had Michelle in 2nd place, she would have won. I could be wrong though. I would like to see the ordinals again just to see how many judges actually had Sarah winning, placing her first, Irina second, and Michelle third. is there anywhere we can view?
Sarah-1 4 3 4 1 2 1 1 1
Irina- 3 1 1 1 4 1 2 3 2
Mk- 2 2 2 2 2 3 3 2 3
judge #1 had MK as the overall winner
judge#2 had Irina as the overall winner
Judge#3 had Irina as the oveall winner
Judge #4 had Irina as the overall winner
Judge #5 had MK as the overall winner
Judge #6 had irina as the overall winner
Judge #7 had Sarah as the overall winner
Judge #8 had MK as the overall winner
Judge #9 had Sarah as the overall winner.
So Michelle had 3 judges place her as the winner of the competition
Irina had 4
Sarah actually only had two because out of the five judges that ranked her 1st in the LP,3 of them had MK in second which would have make her the winner.
If I did this correctly. So no one was trying to make sure she won. She just ended up winning.It actually looks to me like judges 2-4 were trying to ensure that Irina won, putting her first and Sara 3rd or 4th.
Interestingly, three of the four judges that had Irina in 1st place had Michelle in 2nd place and Sarah third or lower.
Also here are Sarah's placements for the short program 6 10 4 5 5 5 5 4 4

Stainless Steel Brake Lines For Porsche®
- Peformance Replacement
- Teflon-lined
- Stainless Steel Braided
- Set Of 4
Our teflon-lined, stainless-steel, braided brake lines give you a firmer pedal feel and better brake control. This is a permanent fix, eliminating the cost of repeatedly replacing rubber lines. Our brake lines are exclusively built, using factory race specifications, by the people who supply the brake lines for Porsche Factory and Formula One race cars. These lines are much stiffer due to the stainless steel shielding and may be slightly longer than stock.
TECH TIP: Inspect your brake lines and brake fluid regularly because brake fluid is hydroscopic (attracts water) and under extreme conditions may need to be changed.

Snowboarding: Munich
Nokia Air & Style went down as THE most progressive contest in snowboard history as Travis Rice (USA) romped his way to victory with a double back-flip backside 180 to an ecstatic audience of 27,500 snowboard fans, and claimed the first 1000 TTR points of the season.
The mass crowd roared in awe as the world's legends went all-out in a three-round best trick head-to-head battle, culminating in a final that pushed freestyle snowboarding to a level never seen before, cut from 16 to 8 to a four-rider Super-Final. Deserving their finalist positions, in the previous rounds Travis Rice (USA) delivered extraordinary technicality landing a frontside double-cork 1080-to-backside Rodeo; Risto Mattila (FIN) entering via a Cab 1080 nose-to-switch backside 540 and Antti Autti (FIN) stomped a frontside 1260 tail-to-switch backside 720. Local hero David Benedek (GER) landed an epic double-corked 1260 but couldn't manage to repeat the same in the Super-Final.
Shaun White's (USA) invincibility was blown away by the technical wizardry of Antti Autti, as White took fifth place. "What the hell do you need to do to win this contest! I'm stoked on my riding but it's out of control!" quoted White. In any other normal contest White would have been assured pole position the Nokia Air & Style 06 panned out to cause a sensation. TTR CEO Drew Stevenson stated, "In all my years of snowboarding this was the sickest contest I have ever been to."
Constantly coloured by outstanding tricks, the night included Nicolas Müller's (SUI) attempt at a one-footed Misty 720, which nearly came off as one of the hardest tricks of all time, earning huge respect from all riders. Finland's Eero Ettala constructed a sweet switch double-back flip. Mikkel Bang (NOR) cleaned up with a backside 900 to earn the title of Rookie Challenge winner and secure a position in next year's Nokia Air & Style at the Olympic Stadium, Munich.
Following Müller's slopestyle and halfpipe results at the Abominable Snowjam in Mt Hood earlier in July, Müller's 7th position meant his first TTR Ranking List Top Ten entry of the season: "I'm looking forward to the challenge to stay in the Top Ten – it feels good to be back there again. I'm trying my best at Nissan X-Trail to make that happen and hoping all the young guns won't kick me out!"
Straight into the TTR Ranking List at Rank 30 with his first result of the season, Travis Rice looks set to be a hot contender in the fight to be TTR World Snowboard Champion 0607. "TTR is one of the best things to happen in snowboarding for a long time, and will help propel snowboarding in a credible and respectable way."
The suspense continues with the next 6 Star event Nissan X-Trail Jam at the Tokyo Dome 9th-10th December, 2006 as Rice competes again against White, Müller, Finch, Crepel amongst yet another board of legends and a further 1000 prestigious TTR Ranking points to grab.

The one you that you listen to over and over again? Listening to it sort of brings back to mind the first time you made love. Something totally unforgettable.
For me it is the recording made by George Winston in the "Autumn" piano series. The first hearing was magical and the nth hearing remains just as magical. Just like making love.

Burton-exclusive features like the NEW seamless Infinite Ride liner and NEW ReBounce cushioning spring into action for curve-hugging comfort and shock-absorption that outlasts the competition. The most respected and thoroughly developed Supreme ever built, this is the best of the best channeled into one boot that balances pro-level responsiveness with comfort that any rider will appreciate.

Speed Zone™ Lacing System for True Zonal Lacing Control
Lightning fast lacing control. Customize the fit of the upper or lower zone in seconds, and because the system is so powerful, you get more rebound, more wrap, and better response—with less effort.
Flex / Response
Articulating Cuff
Allowing the upper and lower zones of the boot to flex independently creates fluid forward motion, minimizes shell distortion, and maximizes heel hold and response.
Seamless Power Spine Backstay
Allow for fine-tuned medial/lateral support, edge-to-edge response, and durability.
NEW Power Up Medium Flex 3D® Molded Tongue
For greater rebound and durability, we have upgraded the majority of our 2014 boots to this new dual density tongue construction. Like all our Thin Profile 3D® Molded Tongues, it's available in one of three flex options based on the boot. For even greater response, check the thermoplastic-reinforced Power Up Plus Tongue on the Driver X.
Removable Rider Adjustable Flex [RAF] Tongue Insert
The RAF Tongue Insert lets you customize the forward flex, increasing the support, response, and life of your boots. Featured on the Driver X™ and Supreme™.
Cushioning / Traction
Women's-Specific True Fit™ Design
Enjoy a more harmonious connection with Burton's True Fit™ women's boards, boots, and bindings. True Fit means that every element of every piece of your setup—from boot liners to lace guides, baseplate to strap designs, board shapes to flex profiles—has been designed and engineered for the way women ride. Because when it fits right, it rides better.
Dual Zone B3 Gel
The same cushioning found in our high-end boots for unstoppable impact protection.
NEW ReBounce Cushioning
More comfort and more warmth is the Burton-exclusive upgrade of NEW Rebounce Cushioning. The extra hops are accomplished by surrounding the foot with a two-layer 3D laminate of cushy PU plus reflective material, which not only reduces impact and absorbs chatter but also turns heat inward. Featured on the SLX, Ion, NEW Ion Leather, Hail Restricted, and Supreme.
Total Comfort Construction
Get an instantly broken-in feel right out of the box. Total Comfort's industry-exclusive construction eliminates the break-in period for a fit that feels just as good from day 1 to 100.
NEW Articulating True Fit Custom Cuff
This one-of-a-kind, women's-specific cuff automatically fine-tunes the fit of the upper boot around your body geometry. The result is an even truer True Fit™ for calves of all shapes and sizes, eliminating potential pressure points to improve comfort and warmth. Exclusive to the Supreme™.
Snow-Proof Internal Gusset
All Burton boot tongues feature an internal gusset construction to completely seal the lower zone of the boot, keeping feet warm and dry.
Level 3 Molded EVA Footbed
Lightweight and long-lasting shock absorption.
ESS Support Shank
The added support reduces fatigue while preventing your arch from collapsing on itself when you bomb drop a 40-footer.
Dual-Density Cushioning
Dual-density cushioning uses denser EVA laterally for support, and a softer, more cushioned EVA medially to allow your foot to roll naturally, reducing stress on your joints and ligaments.
NEW Infinite Ride™ 4 Liner
1. DRYRIDE Moisture Wicking Tech [Men's Only] 2. Tuff Cuff with Velcro® J-Bar Interface and Inner Lace Lock 3. Aegis™ Antimicrobial Coating 4. Plush Cuff 2.0 [Women's Only] 5. Sock Lock 6. Rad Pad for Lace Comfort 7. Velcro® Liner Closure 8. Level 2 Molded EVA Footbed with ESS Support Shank, Dual-Density Cushioning, and Aegis™ 9. Heat-Moldable
Plush Cuff 2.0
The Plush Cuff 2.0 steps to the next level with a separate cuff that wraps the bottom of your calf and stretches to fit a greater range of shapes and sizes. Featured on the Supreme™.
Rad Pad
Located on the top of your instep, right where the liner laces exert the most pressure, these pre-curved panels keep your feet stoked and secure.
NEW Tuff Cuff
Ankle support and inner cuff stability is mandatory in a pro-level boot. Our solution is the Tuff Cuff, which increases heel hold and wraps the ankle with medial and lateral support while still flexing freely from toe to heel. Featured on the SLX, Ion, NEW Ion Leather, Rover, Driver X™, Supreme, and Felix™.
Aegis™ Antimicrobial Coating
Inhibits foul odors. Your feet [and your friends] will thank us. Look for Aegis™ on select liners and footbeds.
Ultimate Set-up
For the best performance, ride these together

Comments about Avenir 100 Series Road Saddle:
It has been very nice upgrade from my previous saddle but still during long rides it starts to get a bit uncomfotable. but a great seat for the price
Best Uses
Comments about Avenir 100 Series Road Saddle:
It is a great saddle for the price. It looks good, fits good, and will last a long time if treated with care. The saddle is very sturdie and wont break easlily. Great choice for any road bike rider.
Comments about Avenir 100 Series Road Saddle:
I use this on a road bike for 20-40 mile rides. It fits me very well for width and padding for these rides.
I have noticed that after 35 or 40 miles I'll get soreness from sitting on it, but after a few minutes of break soreness is gone. I might try a more expensive saddle if this continues to bother me but it's not that often that this is a problem
Comments about Avenir 100 Series Road Saddle:
This is the most comfortable saddle I've ever ridden. The shape is a proven design, put to use by many different manufacturers, but this one takes the cake. The foam padding is the perfectdensity, not too firm, not too soft. It's great for the racing cyclist that spends hours on the bike. I would recommend this saddle to any cyclist. I sure hope Avenir keeps this one around. I'll use it for life.

Farm-to-Table is a fashionable restaurant trend in which chefs use locally grown ingredients to ensure freshness by reducing shipping and storage time. Menus change according to what is seasonally available in a particular region. Restaurateurs employing this model are good neighbors who support their local economies and ecosystems, avoiding the health hazards associated with corporate farming. And locally produced food is more likely to be organic.
But like the Peter Allen song says, "Everything Old is New Again." Many of our "new" trends are really old, recycled ones. Farm-to-Table is in fact the way most people lived before the 20th century. It may surprise readers to know that our 4th-ranked United States President, Thomas Jefferson, was a huge proponent of "farm-to-table." In fact, he extolled the virtues of eating a diet high in fresh vegetables and fruits and low in meat. And he "walked the walk" by eating that way himself.
Jefferson grew loads of vegetables in his kitchen garden at Monticello, with peas being given a huge space allotment because of his fondness for them. Several lettuce crops were grown and harvested there each year and he was one of the young nation's earliest growers of tomatoes. The recorded purchases of cabbage made by the Jefferson's indicates it was a big family favorite, too.
Farm-to-table methodology made the Jefferson menu healthy, and it would stand up well to those in any of today's chi-chi restaurants. Home chefs wishing to use this cooking strategy can use local food co-ops and farmers markets. Daily healthy and delicious vegetable recipes appear in Easy Weekly Meals smart cookbooks. Check one out if you'd like to add more veggies to your table.
Our third President believed in getting regular exercise and moderation in all things. And although he had a penchant for French cuisine and enjoyed fine wines, vegetables, small quantities of meat, and olive oil were the staples of his diet.
What a difference a century makes! Presidents' ranking 5th and 6th were carnivores. Watch for more on the Top 10 Presidents' Favorite Foods to learn more about them.

Cloud Computing Prompts New IT Planning
Microsoft's announcement last week that it will offer a new software development platform for cloud computing added new energy to the debate over how and when organizations might begin turning to the technology. Security concerns continue to fuel the belief that it will be years before companies consider trusting their information to remote, commercially operated datacenters. However, a variety of forces are accelerating strategy considerations for information technology officials and their contractors, according to cloud computing experts at a symposium in Washington, D.C. on Oct. 29.
