Got "Fetch"? POP/IMAP Email Broken in iPhone 2.1?
As opposed to "push" style ActiveSynch, MobileMe, or Yahoo! iPhone mail, traditional POP or IMAP accounts, like Gmail or ISP mail, needs to "fetch", or check the server on a certain schedule to see if there are new messages.
Reader Mike wrote in pointing us to a thread on the Apple Discussion Forums about "fetch" email being broken with iPhone 2.1. I only fetch mail from Gmail, and Gmail IMAP is a strange and buggy implementation which gives me considerable problems beyond the iPhone, so I can't say whether anything is really broken or not in 2.1.
Reader Steffen, however, after thinking the problem could just be undocumented IMAP IDLE behavior, decided to run some tests:
Finally, I had some time to look into this thorougly. I dumped IP traffic all night to see what iPhone does. My iPhone is set to retrieve data every hour. Here's when the iPhone actually connected to my IMAP server:
Looks like everything but an hour to me... Oh yeah, forgot to mention... I've turned off everything except for GSM radio do be sure to get all traffic. The last three connections occurred when I started to play around with the iPhone this morning. So, the effect that lead me to the assumption of IMAP-IDLE on the iPhone seems to be something else. It appears that the iPhone will contact IMAP more often while using it and somehow random while idling... So, no IMAP at this time, but maybe interesting as well...
Definitely interesting! Thanks Steffen!
Any other readers out there got "fetch" problems? Wacky behavior? Please let us know!
There are 34 comments. Add yours.
I must say... My fetch has been significantly less reliable since 2.1
Nice to know I'm not the only one.
This is a huge problem and well documented on Apples support boards.
I have the same random behaviour. Extremely annoying. E-mail is one of the most important features and it should work.
I have had problems with mail since I got the iPhone. Sometimes it doesn't want to connect.
My question is this:
Sometimes I download the mail to Outlook then if I try to open it on the phone says "This message has been downloaded from the server". If it knows this then why doesn't it clear it off my phone so I don't have to?
My BB would clear them off, not as fast as I would like, but it would.
I have problems with IMAP/POP3 fetch since I upgraded to 2.1. My schedule is every 15 minutes and it only fetches mail when I actually use the phone for mail, web or other. If I leave the phone then no mail is retrieved. Very annoying!
same problem here... iphone will not fetch the emails every 15 hours.
it fetch the mails when itselfe wants or if i use the phone.
@pichel, I get the exact same problem as you. All was fine till 2.1 came out. I am set at 15mins as well and it worked great till after the update.
iPhone fetch worked fine before 2.1 - after 2.1 I rarely get my email unless I open the mail application... or, randomly, as Steffen suggests. Sometimes just using other apps on the phone will make it check my mail. But it's definately NOT doing it every 30mins as programmed. Sometimes I can go more than 6 hours without it checking for new mail.
I have 5 different email accounts (Gmail and 4 IMAP accounts) and too have noticed that fetch (set every 15 minutes) only follows that schedule whenever I am using the phone. When I have it locked - I get no emails. Before 2.1, everything worked great ...
It's this kind of unreliability that led me to abandon my Windows Mobile PDA phone and buy an iPhone. I don't feel like I'm much better off lately on the iPhone. I'm glad I switched for other reasons, but I've been very dissappointed in Apple, and this is my first experience buying one of their products.
Fetch mail on interval seem to only work in sleep mode if it is charging. Otherwise, it will fetch only if you wake up the phone from its slumper.
Another time interval fetch will work while in sleep mode is when you cross over from one cell tower to the next :) Guess the switch temporary wakes it up to poll for new emails.
I have received this error message before, about 3 times in the last 2 months. i have the latest and greatest updates, I think i have gotten this message with all the firmware updates. i have actually had many problems with gmail on my mail.app. i have 4 gmail accounts (2 @gmail.com accounts and 2 domain accts).
I have my gmail acount configured for imap.
I've also noticed that my connections are a bit random although configured for hourly, but i think i've found a "pattern".
It seems that there is no e-mail fetch if the iphone is idle. From my log files, there seems to be an access to the imap server every time I interact with the iphone after a long idle.
It doesn't access at all when i'm asleep, but as soon as i wake up and disable the alarm it accesses the e-mail (i thought it was wierd to hear the "you got e-mail" alarm everytime i wake up.)
Anyone having a "déjà vu" feeling about this?
Since I updated to the 2.1, the email doesn't even open on my phone. I tap the icon, it opens to a white screen, then in about 2 seconds, I am returned to the phone's home screen. I am ready to restore it and reinstall stuff!
I cant get email wich Is very anyoing
Someone asked if this was happening outside of gmail... I've been having problems with getting my outlook emails since I got this phone a couple weeks ago. First of all it took forever to input my account information correctly (it would say "verifying pop info" indefinitely), and since then email retrieval has been very on and off.. some days they all come through, some days none. I actually got a gmail account becuase I thought it would be better supported be the iphone, but lately my gmail has stopped retrieving email from outlook server for some reason.... what a mess
Add me to the list. My Gmail IMAP fetch has totally broken since 2.1
Same here, all fine before 2.1 but now my iPhone 3G will only 'fetch' when I poke it. Using a linux based IMAP server which used to be faster than MobileMe, which never pushed at all for me. Booooo.
Even worse than scheduled fetching failing, my iPhone won't even collect from POP or IMAP servers manually.
The server settings are definitely correct. tailing the server logs I can see, for example, that the iphone is initiating an imap(s) connection, but then nothing. I tried with and without SSL. On the iPhone itself it just says it's checking for messages and sits there until I force quit the mail app.
I purchased my iPhone 3G this weekend and it had 2.1 on so can't comment on previous firmware but something is definitely broken.
Unusable POP/IMAP is a deal breaker for me. If only Apple would state if they're aware of this, and if a fix is scheduled for the 2.2 firmware. Knowing my luck the release date will be after I can no longer return my phone and still won't fix the issue.
Same Here, in Italy, impossible to fetch ANY Pop/Imap email after 2.1. Damn !
Rather than saying I also have the same problem ! Has anyone been in contact with apple on this and got a definitive answer as to the problem and the solution?
Are you kidding??? Apple denies everything, admits nothing, and makes counter-accusations. They won't even acknowledge that we should be able to change our own email alert tones. What makes you think they acknowledge new problem created by their "update"???
I can only speculate that they are introducing such problems intentionally. I can't imagine why, but the reaches of the glaring incompetence of their programmers along with their deafening silence on the problems makes the mind boggle.
My Gmail 15-minute fetch stopped working 24 hours ago, for some unknown reason. I've tried reinstalling the account and all the usuals but it still doesn't work. I use Gmail for work so it's a huge pain.
Here's the scoop:
Apple decided it was better to preserve iPhone battery charge by checking mail only when a user wakes the iPhone up or a "network event" wakes it up (e.g. changing cells towers).
There is a known bug in Apple's POP3 Fetch where the iPhone doesn't close the POP3 session properly on the mail server. This leaves the session open until the server session times out. POP3 does not allow more than one session, so until it times out the iPhone (or any desktop or laptop client trying to access the same mailbox) cannot connect to that same mailbox.
Why can't apple just fix this Fetch problem... I'm about ready to go back to my trusty Blackberry, in which I always, always, always got me email... Even before they showed up on my computer when I sitting in front of it. I already know the battery life sucks, but I want the email. It seems even after 2 days of this new iphone 2.2 update, I still don't get email, unless I hit refresh - then presto emails that are hours old...
I had the same problem. I ran the 2.2 upgrade last night. No more mail fetching problems. None.
My iphine pop won't connect to server. This just started randomly a couple days ago. Running 2.2.1
So annoying.
Anybody got any more info on this promblem?
I have the same problem, I havent received emails for about 4 days? wont connect to server is one message but i checked my settings and noticed that the server options for my yahoo account were all turned off and also other email accounts so i turned them on
i'm not sure yet if this works??? not sure if i shouldve turned them on or not
any help will be appreciated.
I'm really disappointed in my iphone. Some days I get all my email and some days for no reason it doesn't fetch for HOURS!! What good is it if you can'trely on it?
I just don't like this preblem IMAP pls help me I love to see my email all the time 2.1 y .is had now I don't no wthat to du
I just got my IPhone at the end of January, and I HATE IT. I used to get my e-mail, now it tells me "cannot get mail. The connection to the server "pop3" failed" Does anybody know how to fix this. I have my fetch set at 15 minutes.
Another unrelated question. Does anybody know how to reply to tweets with this phone?
I never had a problem with my Blackberry.

In the salon of her house, Violetta Valéry, one of the stars of the Parisian demi-monde, receives guests for the evening. Alfredo Germont is announced, and is introduced to the lady of the house as an ardent admirer of hers. Baron Douphol, Violetta's lover of the moment, sees the young man as a potential rival for Violetta's affections. Alfredo proposes a toast to the power of love, and Violetta responds with a verse singing the praises of pleasure and amusement. While the guests proceed to the ballroom to begin dancing, Violetta has a dizzy spell, and stays behind. She suddenly finds herself face-to-face with Alfredo, who declares his sincere love for her without further ado. The young woman, who has hitherto only known love from its realistic, down-to-earth side, is surprised and confused by Alfredo's selfless and passionate declaration of love, and says he would do better to forget her, since she can only offer him her friendship. However, she hands him one of the camelias from her decolleté and gives him permission to return when the flower has died. Alfredo understands this as her way of saying he may see her again tomorrow. Left alone, Violetta is assailed by conflicting feelings. She admits that she longs to give and receive love, but when she starts to think that these feeling are taking possession of her, she declares them to be mere silliness and tries to banish all thoughts of love from her mind. Alfredo's voice, heard in the distance, makes her pause for a moment - but then she insists once more that she won't give up the way of life that she knows so well, a life of endless pleasure and dissipation.
Several months later. Violetta and Alfredo have been living quietly on a country estate near Paris. Alfredo is overjoyed at his life together with his beloved, until he learns from the maid Annina that Violetta has gradually been selling all her property in Paris in order to pay for their carefree lifestyle. He is utterly shocked, and sets out for Paris, reproaching himself bitterly for his thoughtlessness, to set things to rights. Violetta has received an invitation from Flora to attend a masked ball, but she is not interested. A visitor is announced. Violetta tells her servant to bring him in, expecting it to be the estate agent - and is surprised when the visitor introduces himself as Giorgio Germont, Alfredo's father. He starts to shower reproaches on her, for he believes that his son is wasting his fortune on a courtesan; but Violetta is able to prove that she is paying all the expenses herself. Giorgio explains that his daughter's marriage will be at risk if Alfredo's way of life continues to damage the family's reputation, and asks her to give up Alfredo. At first, Violetta thinks that Giorgio just means a temporary separation; but then she realises that he wants her to give up Alfredo forever. Germont reminds her that she is living in sin, and foretells that as her beauty fades, so Alfredo's love for her will fade too. He is moved to see her grief, while Violetta agrees to give up Alfredo. She now asks him to leave, and he does so, thanking her sincerely for the sacrifice she is willing to make. She writes a note to Flora accepting the invitation to the ball, then her farewell letter to Alfredo. At this point, Alfredo returns and announces his father's visit. The distraught Violetta, laughing and crying at the same time, throws herself into his arms and assures him that she still loves him then she rushes out of the room. A messenger appears as soon as Violetta has gone and gives Alfredo her letter of farewell. Alfredo's father attempts to console his son and asks him to return to the family. Alfredo is completely stunned by what has happened, and by the premonition that Violetta is going to resume her former way of life. Then he espies Flora's invitation on the table, and hastens off in pursuit of the (as he believes) disloyal Violetta. In Flora's house, the guests are already arriving. The news begins to spread that Violetta and Alfredo have broken up, when Alfredo himself appears and plunges into the activity of the masked ball. Asked about Violetta, he shrugs his shoulders and takes a seat at the gambling table. When Violetta appears on Baron Douphol's arm, she observes how Alfredo - to the growing annoyance of the Baron - is making suggestive remarks in her direction. Douphol joins his rival at the card table, and soon loses a considerable sum of money to him. Before the tension between the two men escalates further, the guests are summoned into the dining room. Violetta returns, followed by Alfredo. She asks him to leave the ball before he starts to quarrel with the Baron. Alfredo cynically implies that she is afraid for her protector, but adds that he is prepared to leave if she accompanies him. Since she won't agree Alfredo forces her to admit that she loves Douphol. He then recalls the guests and announces to the assembled company that Violetta squandered her fortune on him. To reward her for the favours he enjoyed, he flings his winnings from cards at her feet. The guests are indignant, and Violetta sinks unconscious into Flora's arms. Father Germont arrives on the scene too late and criticizes his son's behaviour. The Baron for his part demands satisfaction from Alfredo, who already regrets his vindictive action, while Violetta regains consciousness and laments that she cannot open her heart to her beloved. But she knows that he will forgive her one day.
Violetta lies in bed in her Paris apartment; she is seriously ill, and Annina is looking after her. The doctor promises Violetta that she will get better soon, but he takes the maid to one side and admits that her mistress only has a few hours left to live. As the noise of the carnival is carried up to her ears from the street below, Violetta feels the end of her life approaching. A letter >From Alfredo's father informs her that Alfredo wounded the Baron in a duel, and was forced to flee the country for a while. He has told his son at last about the sacrifice Violetta made, and Alfredo and his father are now both on their way to her to ask her forgiveness. A glance in the mirror tells Violetta that it is too late for any hope, and she bids farewell to the happy dreams she nurtured in the past. Alfredo rushes into the room and sinks into Violetta's arms. For one brief moment, the two lovers forget their hopeless circumstances, and dream of a future together. Although the longing to cling on to life flares up in Violetta one last time, her strength finally deserts her as she tries to get out of bed. Violetta makes Alfredo a parting gift of a locket containing her picture. She says he should keep it to give to the girl who will love him one day, as a present from someone who will be praying for both of them. All of a sudden, Violetta seems to be miraculously cured of her pain, and sits up in bed with a last ray of hope - then she sinks back lifeless into Alfredo's arms.

Research: 2012 IT Salary Survey
Research: 2012 IT Salary Survey
U.S. IT salaries are doing just OK. IT remains a well-paying field, with median total compensation of $90,000 for staffers and $116,000 for managers. Staffers report a median raise in total compensation of 1%, while managers report a 1.8% raise, according to our InformationWeek 2012 U.S. IT Salary Survey of 13,880 IT professionals. As recently as 2010, the median raise was 0%.
As always, there's a wide range of salaries depending on skills and industries, but pay is on the rise across job functions. People who perform 11 of 23 staff job functions report median total compensation above $100,000. Last year, just three staff functions broke the six-figure barrier: ERP, enterprise app integration, and data integration and warehousing. With managers, all but two functions—training and help desk—top $100,000 this year.
Among industries, Wall Street IT compensation sits even more firmly on top than in recent years, and San Francisco reigns as the highest-paying city, with median IT manager pay of $134,000 and staff pay of $111,000. Despite the high price, the city's talent pool still draws new employers—the likes of General Electric and Ford opened software development centers there in the past year.
This report will examine these and other Salary Survey findings in more detail. Among other trends, we'll look at the rising importance of IT pros with business analytics skills to make sense of their rising horde of data, and of the business analyst role to bridge business unit needs and IT capabilities.
Survey Name InformationWeek 2012 U.S. IT Salary Survey
Survey Date January 2012
Region United States
Number of Respondents 13,880
Purpose To track IT salary and compensation trends from the perspective of those on the front lines, InformationWeek conducts an annual U.S. IT Salary Survey. Now in its 15th year, it's the largest employee-based IT salary survey in the country. Last year, 18,201 full-time IT professionals completed the Web-based survey. This year, 13,880 took part. The goal of this trendable study is to measure various aspects of compensation, benefits, and job satisfaction. This report focuses on the 7,499 IT staff and 6,381 IT professionals who participated in the survey.
Methodology The survey was designed by InformationWeek and fielded online. The survey was promoted in InformationWeek's daily and weekly newsletters. In addition, email invitations with an embedded link to the survey were sent to qualified IT professionals from InformationWeek Business Technology Network print, newsletter and event databases. The survey fielded from November 2011 to January 2012.
The information within this report is based on responses from 7,499 IT staff and 6,381 IT managers. Unemployed and part-time workers were excluded from these results, as were respondents from outside the United States. This report uses median rather than mean or average figures for salary and percentage salary changes to eliminate distortions caused by extremes at either the high or low end of the responses.

UNCW Drops CAA Opener 2-0 To Patriots
Courtesy: UNCW Athletic Communications
Release: 09/22/2012
FAIRFAX, Virginia - Bolstered by goals from Taylor Morgan and Timmy Mulgrew, George Mason topped UNCW, 2-0, in the Colonial Athletic Association season opener for both sides on Saturday at George Mason Stadium.
The Patriots, who suffered their only loss of the season earlier in the week, improved to 7-1 overall and 1-0 in the CAA. UNCW, meanwhile, dropped to 2-5-1 and 0-1-0 with its third consecutive loss. The loss also snapped the Seahawks' three-game winning streak against GMU.
"I thought we played well in the first half, just unfortunate with some of our shots," said UNCW Head Coach Aidan Heaney. "We had some opportunities, but had to chase the game after giving up the early goal. The CAA is a strong conference and earning points on the road is difficult. George Mason played well and defended well all night."
Morgan opened the scoring just 5:31 into the contest when he converted his own rebound into his sixth goal of the season. UNCW goal keeper Brandon Bolen made the initial save, but Morgan was able to knock home the carom.
Mulgrew pushed the GMU lead to 2-0 with a goal in the 54th minute. Ghiles Harmouche started the play on the right side with a feed to Mulgrew, who sent a shot over Sam Williams, who replaced Bolen in the first half following an injury. For Mulgrew, it was his fifth goal of the season.
Williams finished with four saves in his collegiate debut. "Sam played with some maturity tonight, it was good to see him active and play well."
Dustin Butcher needed to make just three saves in recording the shutout.
GMU outshot the Seahawks, 12-7, but UNCW held an 8-7 advantage in corner kicks.
Sophomore Jamie Dell led UNCW with three shots, two on goal.
The Seahawks close out their non-conference schedule on Sept. 25, when they host Duke at 7 p.m.

Japfan - A friend told me a secret about crepes - you need TWO pans going. Then when one is done - instead of trying to turn or flip it, you just loosen an edge a little and hold the skillet upside down and the crepe into the other heated skillet. Both need to be non stick skillets. The whole process goes faster too.
Aunt Jemima - I love the mix too but I use the one where you add the egg and oil - I suspect she uses more of a cake flour because nothing comes close to being as light and delicious while still tasting like a pancake.
omelettes - they don't compare to the guy in the hotel restaurant with the funny hat, expensive pan, and 400 ingredients to chose from. Frankly, if I were wealthy I would hire him and a chaffeur!
Chocolate chip cookies - to keep them from going too flat, put the dough in the fridge for a while before you put it on the cookie sheet; don't put them on a hot cookie sheet from the oven; also I subsitute about a 1/4 cup of sour cream for 1/4 of the butter, which also keeps them fluffier and softer.
Pie crust - I've only done a homemade pie crust a couple of times, but making sure that the water you add to the recipe is really really cold (in fact, I just put water and ice cubes into one bowl, and then take the tablespoons of water out of that) is what is supposed to help. But I also cheat and roll the dough out on a piece of plastic wrap (I guess a silicon cutting board would work too), and then just flip it into the pie pan, and then peel off the plastic.
meringue. i have the worst time with them.
That's the one thing I can't do. My dream is for there to be an omelet station with a chef in my kitchen. But it seems like that would be costly. Particularly since we don't want omelets every day.
My grandma constantly repeated to all of us that while you can toss a dash of this and a bit of that and scoop of something into cooking, the rule of baking is to be exact with every ingredient. Make sure you have measured it carefully, level off the dry ingredients, etc... And if you are having trouble with yeast breads or rolls, be sure you check to see that your yeast is active first.
Fried chicken. I recently bought a deep-fryer and had my best-ever result, but still not totally right.
Not a specific item, but whenever there is whipping cream involved, I have to stop and remind myself several times that 1/2 pint = 1 cup. I have screwed up more recipies by dumping in a pint box. And I used to cook for a living! (btw that's not the reason I don't any more )
fudge. I have tried several recipes and it just won't get hard. I am cursed with fudge.
The secret to a good omelett is to heat the non-stick pan, spray it, lower the heat, add egg mixture, and keep shaking it. I like to use a bit very cold water and no milk.
Actual bumper sticker series: Jesus is my co-pilot. Satan is my financial advisor. Budha is my therapist. L. Ron Hubbard owes me $50.
Lemon cheesecake squares were my worst disaster...couldn't get the lemon to firm up on top of the cheesecake mixture.
I also am not good at pancakes....they stick to the pan or tear apart. My mom tells me to use more oil in the frying pan.
I do make a mean chocolate chip cookie (you have to watch them like a hawk or they will burn) and apricot/raisin cake.
I'm not spoiled...I deserve all my stuff.
Hot pan, cool oil = no stick.
Bread; I just cannot seem to knead it correctly; it's always sticky and gummy and ends up everywhere but the bread pan.
Gravy -- either too thin, too gloppy, too salty or tasteless no matter what I do.
Vinaigrette dressing -- if I pour olive oil and vinegar right on my salad, it is just fine, but if I try to make a jar of vinaigrette, it is either too oily or too vinegary no matter what recipe I follow or what ratio I put in.
Eggs over easy - I always break them.
But I can bake without recipes. I just know how the dough/mix should feel. Go figure.
I think I will have a snack and take a nap before I eat and go to sleep.
My worst are meringues and yorkshire pudding. Sometimes the yorkshire pudding rises and other times they turn out like hockey pucks. It makes me sad because I grew up having yorkshire pudding every Sunday as both my mother and grandmother were such pros at it. My family is happier when I don't even try because I am always so disappointed when they don't turn out and everyone is trying to make me feel better by making a gallant attempt at eating them.

Ashley was quoted recently by icenetwork saying
http://web.icenetwork.com/news/artic...&vkey=ice_newsI spent a lot of time studying Michelle Kwan's programs, and the way she would interact with the audience. Michelle was so beloved from the audience. She skated to perform, not only to win. It's certainly a level I would like to reach -- both for the results and the performing success. That would be the best of both worlds.
I wish skating had more strong individuals, some champions the audience can latch on to. In the U.S., the skating audience is dwindling now. I'd like to go back to what it was in Michelle Kwan's times. Performance is what people come to watch, beyond technique. Of course, you go for the elements, where you get the points. But the components are also so important.
I decided to compare one of Michelle's more exotic early LPs, Taj Mahal, with Ashley's Sampson and Delilah.
Kwan Taj Mahal 96 SA
Wagner Sampson and Delilah 12 TEB
I admire her interest in reviving American skating and trying to pick up Kwan's torch. When I compare the two videos the biggest technical difference I notice is that Kwan seemed to have a few less linking moves to process between jumps. More subjectively, Kwan seemed to string her choreography along with the music, but I feel that Ashley's delivery of the choreography does not flow from one gesture to the next. It also feels like Kwan had greater command of her technique than Ashley Wagner does, though Wagner has developed into a consistent athlete. I think Ashley was right, in order to try to be able to perform, the technical aspects will need to be second nature. It's still early in the season and they're two totally different athletes, but Ashley's mention of Kwan begged a comparison.

Wedding Wedges to Everyday Wear
With the height of a pump but the support of a flat, wedges are the perfect alternative for a day-to-night look. Remember, all of our shoes are made to order; simply select a style, wedge height and size and we will handcraft your shoes to your exact specifications. Our collection featured below ranges from casual chic to sweet and flirty, from everyday wear to bridal wedges.
Design Your Own
If a pair in our collection doesn't strike your fancy, you can design your own perfect wedges with our revolutionary shoebuilder. You become the shoe designer and, with a few simple clicks, you can easily create one-of-a-kind wedges.
Start by selecting the toe shape, straps and wedge height, then, get playful with our embellishments, from dainty and delightful bows to rocker studs. Finally, choose your material and color.
We provide a virtual rainbow of colors to choose from, plus fun patterns, metallics and wild-for-animal prints. Add that to our extensive material choices, including luxurious lambskin leather, sleek patents, lush and crush velvets, suave snakeskin and animal-friendly alternatives, and you have over a million possible combinations. The result? A shoe that is uniquely … perfectly … exactly you.
Vegan Wedges
For our vegan shoe-innovators, we have animal-free alternatives, such as faux leather, faux patent, ultrasuede, velvet, glitter and faux snakeskin. Rubber, instead of leather, is used for the sole and our high-end, non-leather material lines the insole. It's quality and style that honors your commitment to cruelty-free fashion.
Wedding Wedges
Wedding wedges are perfect for brides getting married on grass or on the beach. You have the height and glamour of heels with the support and stability of a flat. Choose your wedding wedges from our signature collection or make your dream pair a reality with our shoebuilder. Opt for a blue insole in your wedding wedges and you've got something blue covered!
Our bridal wedges also make the perfect option for your bridesmaids' shoes for an outdoor wedding. You can select a color that matches the scheme of your wedding and allow your bridesmaids to each design their own wedding wedges. This way, you can ensure each girl loves her shoes and is comfortable in the heel height.

This adapter set has been used for 2 babies now on my Sport v2 with my Chicco car seats; it's easy to use, and you can leave it on when not actually being used for the car seat. I've never had any fit issues! All around a great and necessary accessory.
This adaptor is great, it turned my stroller into a snap n go!! There are some adaptors out there for this stroller that involve strapping the car seat into the stroller and they looked very complicated, but this was easy to install, I am even able to fold it up and put it in my van with out removing the adaptor. This is a must buy!

Orford/Williams got the spot at Rostelecom Cup
Orford/Williams got the spot at Rostelecom Cup
It will be interesting to see if the rules changed to allow the host to choose among the skaters in the Top 24 SB with one rather than go in strict order -- strict order was specified last year -- or if Tobias/Stagniunas passed on a second. Last season there was speculation that Joshi Helgesson, who was Top 24 WS, turned down a second when it was her turn and the host chose from Top 75.
Russia/Japan (O/W's original assignment) is probably the toughest travel schedule for NA skaters.
"The team doesn't get automatic capacity because management is mad" -- Greg Smith, agile guy
But the organizers have some flexibility. The can pick anyone from the top 5.An these top 5 will be updated when someone is picked from this group. Now that Orford \Williams (I think they were 3rd or 4th in this list) are picked for the second event, the couple with the 6th SB moved to the top 5.
O/W were #21 in the SB list.
Top 5 would be new this year. Last year the third and fourth bullet points (after comeback skaters and split couples) were:
• Skaters in proper order of top 24 season's best would be next.
• Skaters from the top 24 who have only one event will be listed in the next order and should be
picked in that order (done by points).
Does that mean that it's the top 5 SB with one or none, and that Top 24 SB and WS can be skipped for a second, while skaters in the Top 75 with none can get a first (or second)? This could mean more spots for more skaters and going into Top 75 or deeper into Top 75, thus spreading the wealth, since there's incentive for a host to get the weakest competition for their own skaters.
Top 5 after Orford/Williams:
- Tobias/Stagniunas (18-USA)
Chock/Bates (20-CHN)
Alessandrini/Vaturi (22-USA)
Slobina/Sitnikov (23-CAN)
Ralph/Hill (25-CAN, also 21 WS)
If Top 24 SB and Top 24 WS are taken into consideration, then
- Guignard/Fabbri (29-CHN, also 18 WS), assuming Zenkova/Sinitsin stay Junior,
Pushkash-Guerreiro (32-FRA, 17 WS)
Yu/Wang (50-JPN, 20WS)
would be next, in that order to move into the top 5.
If only SB is taken into consideration, then
- Guignard/Fabbri (29-CHN, also 18 WS)
Heekin-Canedy/Dun (30)
Pushkash-Guerreiro (32-FRA, 17 WS)
would be next.
"The team doesn't get automatic capacity because management is mad" -- Greg Smith, agile guy
Can somebody explain why Orford/Williams (21st on the SB list) were picked over Tobias/Stagniunas (18th) and Chock/Bates (20th)?
I find it highly unlikely that both of these teams would pass on a second spot, so I guess ISU is again making it up as they go along?
That is certainly not the USFS' problem.
Dornbush has a higher WR than Ihaveasnoozeday and the latter had a low SB as well.
Why would he get assigments?
SUN explained that the host Fed can choose any one if the top 5 with none or one in SB order, so O/W could be chosen over T/S. (The team in between was already assigned to RC. )
It looks like a rule change from last season.
"The team doesn't get automatic capacity because management is mad" -- Greg Smith, agile guy
if they're going by top 5 from SB now, then for the ladies...
Alissa Czisny
Kiira Korpi
Mirai Nagasu
Sofia Biryukova
Polina Korebeynikova
who's the weakest link of the 5? XD
Well Czisny probably won't accept a replacement due to her surgery.
I guess Biryukova and Korobeynikova would be the weakest here but then Nagasu and Korpi are both the kind of names that could draw skating fans in.
And well you'd want Kiira just so you could use her pictures in your promotional materials.

I really hope Misha Ge gets a spot. I feel very badly Armin doesn't have one (honestly, that is a travesty), but Ge is amazing too- and the only skater from his country. How can federations grow programs if they can't even send out the skaters they have? (I'm surprised Caluza isn't on there either.)
I'm surprised Mroz doesn't have one, but his skating isn't too exciting to me, so eh. There are a lot of Americans out there.
Why did the GP reduce the number of spots. What a mistake.
Lara's point (and mine earlier) was that Armin Mahbanoozadeh's 4th place finish at US Nationals should have earned him at least the men's 1st alternate spot to 4CC. Dornbush ended up going as the 1st alternate instead (he did not raise his SB score from Cup of China at 4CC), and so Mahbanoozadeh missed out on the opportunity to raise his ISU SB score (he was skating much better following the GP season after he moved his training base to Colorado Springs to prepare for Nationals).

ah okay, sorry, I assumed because so many seem to believe that the federation has a say in this (well, a bigger say than they do)
USFSA had somehow managed in the past to get a GP for their top 5 at nationals. This is the first year the fed won't be able to do so, mainly because of reduced entries, a couple of poor strategies (4cc assignment), and probably the return of Evan (who will likely take up the TBA at SA)

Detroit Pistons Draft Dreams: Enes Kanter
It's strange that a college player who never actually played a game for his college team is considered one of the can't-miss prospects in this draft, but such is the plight of Enes Kanter. Ruled permanently ineligible by the NCAA after he received impermissible benefits after playing for a professional team in Turkey, Kanter was solely a practice player for Kentucky this season.
Measurables: 6-foot-10, 250 pounds, freshman C from Kentucky
Key stats: N/A
Projected: Top 10
How would he help the Pistons?
Kanter's biggest attribute is that he's, well, big. At 6-10/250, he has great size already for a young big and is ahead of older players in the draft who need to do some filling out if they're going to handle the punishment of playing in the paint in the NBA.
He also has a fairly advanced post game for a young player. He's good at establishing position, comfortable playing with his back to the basket and he also possesses a bit of a mean streak, something the Pistons sorely lacked last season. It doesn't stop with his physical game though. As you can see by his Nike Hoops Summit highlights, Kanter can hit the 15-footer and has enough finesse to put the ball on the floor and get to the basket as well.
How wouldn't he help the Pistons?
The major question with Kanter is simply experience. Outside of a few highlights and very brief minutes with a team in Turkey over a year ago, no one has seen much of Kanter. Practicing all season with Kentucky certainly helped, but he might need some extra time to adjust to the NBA game because he hasn't consistently played high-level organized basketball for a while.
What are others saying?
On top of his excellent skill level, Kanter impressed with his intangibles as well. He's the type of quiet, competitive player that simply goes about his business without getting frustrated at officials or letting a few bad possessions throw off his game. The fact that he didn't start the Hoop Summit game didn't seem to faze him, as he could be seen enthusiastically supporting his team from the bench.
The NCAA denied Kanter's bid to play for Kentucky this season, placing him in limbo all year. He's been hanging around Kentucky, working as a student-assistant coach, but the loss of playing time hurts. He'll spend the spring working with Michael Jordan's former trainer, Tim Grover, in Chicago in preparation for the draft. Most GMs still have him as a top-five or top-six pick. Great workouts could lift him even higher.
"Where he ultimately lands depends on what underclassmen come out," one NBA scout told Yahoo! Sports. "But he's definitely top seven at worst. He's just so skilled offensively. He has a decent midrange game and can definitely finish in the paint. He has good footwork, runs the floor well and is very agile for his size.
"From what the international scouts say, he's the top big man coming out. He's like a taller Al Horford. He can pick and pop, and score inside. He can pretty much fit into any system for any team that needs a center doesn't matter if they're a half-court or running team."

I've like Kanter and have been on his bandwagon for a while, but now I'm a bit concerned he's too much like Monroe – skilled, solid, but not very quick or athletic. I wonder if they would fit together well. Biyombo or Valanciunas would probably complement Monroe better.
Besides the experience thing, you forgot to mention there were some concerns about his knees, though that may not be much of an issue.
Apr 20, 2011 • 10:12 pm

I think Kanter and Monroe would be a great pairing offensively. You can't go wrong having two versatile bigs. From all the videos I've seen and reports I've read Kanter is a very talented offensive player. What I do worry about is pairing him with Monroe defensively. As you stated, the problem would be that neither are quick and athletic so we'd have no interior shot blocking. Jonas would be the other big man getting a lot of playing time so we'd almost never have a shot blocker in the game.
Apr 20, 2011 • 6:32 pm
by BIG MARV
A bit raw but I do like that he has a nose for the ball almost similar to Kevin Love. He does play big, has an attitude and runs the floor. It would be a hard sell at the 7th pick, detroit cannot blow that pick. I still say get the point guard first but this guy def would go in the top 15 mabey either 11th or 13th if they can convience me more in the next couple months that he's at least a steal at 7th then I will buy it but for now. he's a 10-15th pic which aint bad at all I still think we can get our big in the free agent market. I wouldnt have no problem with him and monroe on the court together because you can put monroe at center and now you have a legit PF that can play in and out the paint that wont be in the way.
Apr 20, 2011 • 10:15 pm
by James
He's definitely better than a top 10-15 pick especially in a weak draft like this one. I'd be pretty shocked if he dropped past 10. All the draft sites I've checked have him in the 4 to 10 range.
Apr 20, 2011 • 11:23 pm
by detroitpcb
He is slow footed defensively.
Offensively he is quite skilled. He definitely has size and can rebound. he is not going to block shots but i like his mean streak.
i think he is gone before the Pistons pick – and like our friend from Turkey (wonderful country – at least along the coast) i think some of the other international players are overrated.
This is a easy year to make a mistake with the 7th pick
Apr 20, 2011 • 11:31 pm
by detroitpcb
i think Motiejunas might be the best big in the draft but he is not a rebounder or defender – he is a better CV in that he doesn't seem to mind taking his man down low more often than Cv does while every bit as capable of hitting the outside shot.
a lot of people question his attitude and 'softness'. Skinny kid though, just filling out, might turn out to be a better defender and rebounder than people expect but maybe that is wishful thinking.
easy draft to make a mistake in.
Apr 21, 2011 • 11:28 am
by BIG MARV
Exactly this draft is not that deep and you cannot be making mistakes, James said he's a 4-10th pick in the draft NO WAY IN HELL! if you have a half way stacked team and you need more big's help (such as the bucks, or the miami heat) then he would be a steal but with a team like detroit thats desperate for a splash at either PG or the Center position I think you go with the PG first because you will have good scoring guys available such as Kimba Walker Brandon Knight and mabey nolan smith. But he's def a top 15 guy but I really dont see him in the top 10 unless you really believe in the guy. Draft a PG and just worry about a big in the free agent market.

Kanter is definitely the best CENTER in the draft because of this size and the fact that there are no other centers. (although Biyombo could become one) The problem is the Pistons can't draft Kanter unless that get a top 3 pick.
Apr 22, 2011 • 9:33 am

The sad thing of it all is that with all the kids going back to school this year (which is not a bad thing) this draft is so weak that i don't think Walker,Knight or Kanter will be available at #7 for us. We will be looking at options such as Fredette,Terrance Jones, or the Bismack guy. I agree with the person from from Turkey and would probably look to trade if we are unable to land one of the first three. The Euro invasion doesn't look to promising outside of Kanter.

Hi I am from Turkey.I read the thoughts you all made and i understand u have no idea about Kanter. He measured 6ft11 and 260 pound in amare stoudemire's camp last summer.yes he is not an elite athlete but when did u see a monster 360 jam from an european big man. He has really good foot speed to guard power forwards.He will play 4 and 5 positions in nba. The only reason for not being selected in the first pick is he did not play pro level games last two years.For me he is 'Duncan Light'
