I am teaching Intro to Lit and when I teach Intro to Lit, I require my students to read a novel from a long list I give them. I openly confess to not having read all the books on the list and always read one of the ones I've missed as penance. My penance novel this time is The Way of All Flesh. I am not sure that "scathingly funny" is how I would describe it. It has its moments, but then there's the rest of it.
When I have had enough of it, I read What is the What and wish I could just read it. I really like the way Dave Eggers writes and the story is gripping.
When I finish The Way of All Flesh, I will move on to another book from the list (I read a lot faster than my poor students do) and I am trying to decide between One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest and The Maltese Falcon. I have The Maltese Falcon, but I've never been able to get past the first chapter . Does anyone know if it gets better? I kind of suspect the hardboiled detective who calls his girl a doll while staring at her fantastic legs isn't for me, but maybe I am being shortsighted.
I also have Square Peg: My Story and What It Means for Raising Innovators, Visionaries, and Out-of-the-Box Thinkers , which I think will be interesting from a teaching perspective.
I also have a trashy novel for when things get particularly dire (as they are wont to do with Intro to Lit). I can't remember the name, but I think it involves kilts.
"The secret to creativity is knowing how to hide your sources."-- Albert Einstein.
I haven't read any of Hammett's stuff yet, but I'm working my way through Chandler in between more serious books. Generally, I veer between a couple opinions depending upon what is going on in the chapter: woah that description was actually pretty awesome (which may or may not happen with Hammett, as I don't know his writing style yet), huh that was actually a pretty good twist, oh that was actually a pretty bad twist, and a mixture of cringe/LMAO/did people actually think like this then? at all the ridiculously over-the-top, hardboiled, homophobic, racist, misogynistic stuff, depending upon how ridiculous or mean I think it is from my 21st century white female perspective.
So, the detective who calls his girl a doll while staring at her fantastic legs would probably just make me gigglecringe, but if you can't come at it from that angle probably it's not something you'd want to read (unless you're the sort of person who thinks that sort of thing is charming or cool).
Well, hardboiled novels kind of are my trash reading these days. I just can't do romance novels and other standard trash. I'd rather read the contrived hardboiled stuff than the contrived trashy romance stuff any day.
I definitely don't think anyone talked like that.
I read "The Storyteller" by Jodi Picoulet last night. Started at 6:00 and stayed up until 1:30 to finish it. I laughed, I cried, I rolled my eyes at some amazing coincidences. Had no idea it was about a baker and a Nazi war criminal when I ordered it from the library. This is one book that will stay with me for a long time. And I'll be buying the hardcover. It's the kind of book that I'll reread. Just fabulous in parts.
I think I need some light reading today.
I am currently reading "The Lady in the Lake" by Chandler. Mysteries are my staple for relaxing reading. I'm liking Chandler. His detail of description - especially character description - is excellent. I'm also working my way through several Tony Hillerman mysteries.
Also, I just finished "Bambi". I found an old, hashed copy. It was missing the last page, but I didn't miss it. I'm confident I know how it ended. I am also still slogging through "Vanity Fair". I respect it as a classic but I can't say I'm loving the read. I don't think I like any of the characters at all. I know I'm not supposed to, but I like my characters to be likeable.
Yours and a huge number of fangirls all over the internet Who would have thought the dour, sarcastic, mean, conflicted, unattractively described man would be so popular with the ladies?
He's not dour, he is just misunderstood.
I have a Snape action figure (with removable cape) that I bought when the first film came out. I found it in a sale bin for $2.99. It has been perched next to my computer ever since.
Oh, don't worry, I'm with you. I've been reading HG/SS fanfiction since I was 11
The four books in the Hangman's Daughter series are all $0.99 today for Kindle. I don't know much about them but I've heard some buzz.
Plus his voice specifically, I think Though I may be wrong about that.
I hunkered down with YA SF over the weekend: Cassandra Clare's "City of Ashes." I liked it, although the angsty brother/sister duo is getting a bit tiring. I give the author credit for worldbuilding, though. My omly quibble is that I kept wondering how these teenagers are able to get away with virtually no adult supervision and with never going to school. But I'll pick up the third one, the next time I'm in Walmart.
I then moved on to M.J. Rose's "The Book of Lost Fragrances" - a paranormal/reincarnation tale centering around the perfume industry and a quest for a mysterious Egyptian formula for the perfect scent.
I'd rather be thought of as absolutely ridiculous than as absolutely boring.

The following information was provided by the Salvation Army:
The Salvation Army, the administrator of the 2012–13 Massachusetts Good Neighbor Energy Fund campaign, announces that as of Monday, Dec. 3, the Fund will be available to households on an emergency basis due to the "urgency of need" throughout the state. The Fund will open to all qualified candidates on Wednesday, Jan. 2. A cooperative effort between the state's energy companies, their customers and The Salvation Army, the Fund helps households in temporary crisis who do not qualify for federal or state assistance with the payment of their energy expenses. The Fund's 28th Annual "Give The Gift of Warmth" campaign's goal is to raise $650,000 and help more than 2,000 households.
"As we're seeing a heightened need for assistance, we've decided to once again open the Fund in December for emergency cases only," said Major Robert Goding of The Salvation Army in Canton. "Due to the struggling economy and relatively high cost of living, we're anticipating the number of requests for energy assistance will continue to rise as the temperatures drop this winter season." Goding added that the Fund has raised more than $18.3 million and assisting over 80,450 households since its inception in 1985. The Fund is often the last resort for households who have not qualified for federal and state assistance programs. To qualify for assistance from the Fund, an applicant's gross household income must fall between 60 and 80 percent of the state's median income levels.
This year's Fund disbursement is $350 per eligible household per heating season. Massachusetts residents who wish to support the Fund can "Give the Gift of Warmth" by using the mint-colored Good Neighbor Energy Fund donation envelope found as an insert in monthly energy bills or through the 'add a dollar' program some energy companies offer which allows customers to contribute on their monthly bill payment by one dollar or more.
Customers can also donate with a credit card on-line by visiting www.magoodneighbor.org and checking the appropriate box or by calling 1-800- SAL-ARMY. Or, donors can simply mail a check payable to "The Good Neighbor Energy Fund" and send it to The Salvation Army, 25 Shawmut Road, Canton, Massachusetts 02021. Participating energy companies support their respective customers' generosity through various giving programs. For more information on the Fund and how to apply, visit your local Salvation Army Service Center or call 800-334-3047 if you live in area codes 508, 617, 781 or 978. Web: www.magoodneighbor.org.

Part of the conversation on the show with Khorkina and some of the others is that Paseka and the coach are very upset that Maroney won silver over her with a fall. I know it is always tough to lose to someone who fell when you didn't but the bitching and moaning is almost hilarious and more than a little hypocritical. They completely ignore or forget that Mustafina won an AA bronze with a fall. That is never mentioned. They also say they don't like the rules that only allow them to dispute their own gymnasts scores because they feel the judges made a mistake on Maroney's 2nd vault. Do they think the judges forgot to deduct for the fall? The score says it all. Maroney did NOT win silver because of a high score on her 2nd vault, she won silver because her Amanar gave her enough of an advantage to absorb a fall.
"Michelle would never be caught with sausage grease staining her Vera Wang." - rfisher
Falling on vault is completely different then falling in the all around. Heck it is even different than another event final, and another event final would still look alot worse than the all around. Vault you do just one move of gymnastics. It looks pathetic that it is now two Olympics in a row someone medaled on vault, basically falling on one of only 2 moves they did, with a fall. Falls on vault should be a larger deduction than the other events, atleast in event finals. To only do one piece of gymnastics and fall and medal, and for it to happen multiple times now, is a poor reflection on the sport and its scoring, and they need to examine that and prevent it happening again, no matter how lacking the vault field right now might be which in fairness to the judges no doubt on this occasion was also a factor in that happening.
Mustafina medaled in the AA over someone who practically fell as well (Raisman who put her hand on the beam which is almost a fall) and who had a novice bar routine which shouldnt even score above 14. In hindsight I cant believe now so many were upset with people medaling in AAs with falls when it is one missed move in 3 or 5 routines filled with many moves plus a vault, when you have people falling on vault, one event with just one move (or 2 I should say, your 2 different vaults in vault finals) and winning a vault final medal.

Well o.o Paseka's amanar was atrocious in Event Finals and I've seen several people say that she didn't fully rotate her amanar either. I haven't seen replays yet so don't fully remember whether it was fully rotated or not. But really the judging of that event final was rather poor.
Also the Amanar is going down to 6.3 but until judges are stricter with the execution there is still too much incentive to do the more difficult amanar rather than the DTY.
And congrats to Chellsie Memmel on her engagement.
I feel that Paseka robbed Janine Berger of a vault bronze (or Maroney robbed her of a silver) much much more than I feel that Maroney robbed Paseka of a silver. In any other Olympic vault final she would not have medaled, and IMO every single Olympic vault medalist ever in the sport had a prettier set of two vaults than what Paseka did in that final. It's just so frustrating that the past two Olympics the absolute best vaulter couldn't deliver on both vaults, but given how weak the final was I do think Maroney earned her silver. I would've had Paseka's Amanar at least 1 full point lower in execution when comparing the two from the same final, and well you saw the score comparisons.. The for mistakes is getting tiresome for me, thank you Aliya Mustafina for being a such a
I just am happy to forget the London vault final ever happened. Very poor quality and at best iffy judging. The only real low point of the gymnastics womens competition which was otherwise quite enjoyable this time around, a bit moreso than 2008 I thought (although 2008 wasnt bad). I was happy for Izbasa on an emotional level but I would have much rather seen her win floor again, she really a gold medal caliber vaulter, but she did deserve it that day. I am glad they are changing the scoring format for vault finals though, and hope the vaulting field isnt anywhere near as weak as London either by Rio.
I 100% agree with Karpenko though that Berger was robbed even more by Paseka than by Maroney. I do feel badly for her, as I definitely think she was robbed of a medal, and would have won one if she was a bigger name or from a bigger federation. Paseka was lucky her Amanar wasnt downgraded.
It is strange though that maybe the 2 best vaulters ever dont have an Olympic Gold on the event.
Isn't it?! And the everyday fan would never know. I think the only way the vault podiums are going to improve is if we see more gymnasts train a second vault. Think about it, given that final Viktoria Komova, heck even someone like Kyla Ross could've been in huge contention with just a layout Pod. I really hope this gives more gymnasts incentive to learn at least a passable 2nd vault, the medal opportunity is very big there right now. I could also see Maroney winning vault the next 4 years with the same two she has right now, she still has to make those teams but at this point IMO her biggest competition will come from someone in the US (or Pena if she magically started landing nice double fronts).
So o.o were there any other medals where we think things should have been different. For me I can say no. I know many felt Sui Lu was better than Deng Linlin but I easily felt Deng Linlin was better on beam. Funnily enough I agreed with the way tie-breaks went even though I wish they would just reward both gymnasts or change the rules so one can't even get a tie-break.
Rings was a bit of a surprise but as I don't really understand mens COP I just gather the judges got things rights. Overall though those who won or medaled were pretty much who deserved to medal.
According to John Geddert's blog #7 from the Olympics, Paesaeka's vault was at first deemed under-rotated but the decision was changed by Nellie Kim. Is this true? Why wasn't any of this shown if it really happened? I know it is Geddert saying this and I haven't heard of it from any other source but personally I think the floor judge got it right. It was a very under-rotated Amanar and should have been judged from 5.8. If that was the case, I don't think she would have won bronze and she shouldn't be complaining about Maroney's vaults either.
Paseka's first vault definitely should have been downgraded. I am glad to hear someone did it, but horrified to hear it was the corrupt Neli Kim who is still playing such a prominent role in the sport. Berger is the only one who finished below Maroney who had any case to finisher above her, and most definitely should have beaten Paseka, and had the original ruling stood obviously would have done so quite easily.
As for gingercrush's question on the other results I seem to recall having watched the finals live I would have had Uchimura winning floor instead of Kai but I admit to being biased in this case as I really really dont like Zou Kai's gymnasts, although his floor is atleast twice the quality of his embarssing high bar routines. I also disagreed with the rings final result but it wasnt a huge controversy. I disagreed with the beam gold initially but after watching the routines again, I think it was probably correct now.
I also dont know why more Americans dont train a second vault. Wieber or Douglas would have ended up winning easily probably had they trained a 2nd vault and been in finals, with Maroney falling. In a one vault scenario Izbasa comes nowhere near any of the top 4 Americans, but good for her for training 2 vaults like other top vaulters should have been doing too. I think a reason nobody did was everyone just conceded Maroney the vault gold and didnt feel it was worth the effort.
Afanasyeva is continuing
Musty is aiming for AA in Rio
L_S likes this.
Mustafina rocks my socks off. I usually "take a break" from gymnastics for the first year after the Olympics, but I'm actually excited for Worlds next year.
And after watching the beam final again, I agree with the results. Deng Linlin's routine was more difficult and incredibly well executed. She deserved her gold medal. I just have a soft spot for Sui Lu's routine and wanted her to win, and felt so sad for her when she didn't.

While there is no way to predict whether a vitamin, mineral, or herb will successfully treat or prevent associated health conditions, our unique ratings tell you how well these supplements are understood by the medical community, and whether studies have found them to be effective for other people.
For over a decade, our team has combed through thousands of research articles published in reputable journals. To help you make educated decisions, and to better understand controversial or confusing supplements, our medical experts have digested the science into these three easy-to-follow ratings. We hope this provides you with a helpful resource to make informed decisions towards your health and well-being.

Boswellia has anti-inflammatory properties that have been compared to those of the NSAIDs used by many for inflammatory conditions.1 Clinical trials have found that boswellia is more effective than a placebo for relieving pain and swelling and preventing loss of function in people with osteoarthritis.2 Boswellia has also been found to be as effective as the anti-inflammatory drug valdecoxib (Bextra). In addition, while the improvements occurred more slowly in the boswellia group than in the valdecoxib group, they persisted for a longer period of time after treatment was discontinued.3 One clinical trial found that a combination of boswellia, ashwagandha, turmeric, and zinc effectively treated pain and stiffness associated with OA but did not improve joint health, according to X-rays of the affected joint.4 Unlike NSAIDs, long-term use of boswellia does not lead to irritation or ulceration of the stomach.References

Boswellia is an herb used in Ayurvedic medicine (the traditional medicine of India) to treat arthritis. Boswellia has reduced symptoms of RA in most reports.1 While some double-blind trials2 using boswellia have produced positive results, some equivocal results3 and negative findings have also been reported.4 In some trials where boswellia has appeared ineffective, though, patients have been allowed to continue use of nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs). Such use of NSAIDs can confound experimental results, because boswellia and NSAIDs work in a similar fashion to reduce inflammation. Some doctors suggest using 400-800 mg of gum resin extract in capsules or tablets three times per day.
Ginger is another Ayurvedic herb used to treat people with arthritis. A small number of case studies suggest that taking 6-50 grams of fresh or powdered ginger per day may reduce the symptoms of RA.5 A combination formula containing ginger, turmeric, boswellia, and ashwagandha has been shown in a double-blind trial to be slightly more effective than placebo for RA;6 the amounts of herbs used in this trial are not provided by the investigators.References

While there have been few studies on herbal therapy for bursitis, most practitioners would consider using anti-inflammatory herbs that have proven useful in conditions such as rheumatoid arthritis. These would include boswellia, turmeric, willow, and topical cayenne ointment.1, 2ReferencesAsthmaDose: 300 mg three times per day of a resin extract
One double-blind trial has investigated the effects of the Ayurvedic herb boswellia in people with acute bronchial asthma.1 Participants took 300 mg of powdered boswellia resin extract or placebo three times daily for six weeks. By the end of the study, the number of asthma attacks was significantly lower in the group taking boswellia. Moreover, objective measurements of breathing capacity were also significantly improved by boswellia.ReferencesUlcerative ColitisDose: 550 mg of gum resin three times a day
A small clinical study found that people with UC taking 550 mg of boswellia gum resin three times daily for six weeks had similar improvement in symptoms and the severity of their disease as people with UC taking the drug sulfasalazine.1 Overall, 82% of patients receiving boswellia, along with 75% of patients taking sulfasalazine, went into remission.ReferencesCluster HeadacheDose: Refer to label instructionsIn case reports, four patients with chronic cluster headaches showed improvement after supplementing with Boswellia serrata extract.1 The amount used varied from 350 mg three times per day to 700 mg three times per day.

Parts Used & Where Grown
Boswellia is a moderate to large branching tree found in the dry hilly areas of India. When the tree trunk is tapped, a gummy oleoresin is exuded. A purified extract of this resin is used in modern herbal preparations.

Comments about GNC HERBAL PLUS STANDARDIZED GNC Herbal Plus® Standardized Boswellia:
I have been using GNC Boswellia for a couple of years now, for Osteo Arthritis pain in my knees and hip/low back. I started by taking 3 caspules at a time twice a day and then tapered off to 2 at a time twice a day. Boswellia is also Frankincense and you can get this in an essential oil, the oil can be beneficial to help a tender bursa. I take the capsules and I use the oil for swelling in my knees. For my low back/hip nothing you can rub on is going to get down into the sacroilliac joint, this is where the Boswellia capsules excell for me.

Comments about GNC HERBAL PLUS STANDARDIZED GNC Herbal Plus® Standardized Boswellia:
Perhaps maybe it's the TYPE of joint pain that I have which makes this supplement ineffective, but I have to say that my arthiritis feels worse since starting this almost a month ago.
I have osteoarthiritis & read this might help - but sadly it hasn't.
Obviously it has helped others based on the reviews, I guess it would be worth a shot to someone to try it - it's just sad it didn't help me at all & seemingly worsened my condition.

Daily Tip: How to manage syncing multiple iPhones, iPod touches, and iPads with iTunes
Have an iPhone, iPod touch and iPad, or any combination of iOS devices and curious how to manage just what music, apps and videos get synced to which device? Apple has posted a handy tip on doing just that. Check it out after the break!
Let's say you want your podcasts only on your iPod touch, your games only on your iPad, and your getting things done stuff only on your iPhone? (Or any combination of music, TV shows, podcasts, apps, games -- you get the idea.) It even works if you have a lot of devices, like separate iPod touches for all the kids. There's no limit to the number you can sync, so here's what you do:
- Plug your iPhone, iPod touch or iPad into iTunes via the USB dock cable.
- Find it listed under Devices in the left sidebar and click on it.
- Go through the tabs on the top of the iTunes window and select the music, movies, apps, podcasts, etc. you want to sync. (Bonus tip: the big, colorful capacity gauge at the bottom keeps track of how much space you have left so you can't add more than your device can handle.)
- Your selection can include none, all/automatic, or just the exact content you wish.
- Sync!
- Repeat with all your (or your family's) devices.
iTunes will remember the individual settings for all your iPhones, iPads and iPod touch and never confuse them so you get just the content you want on exactly the device you want. Every time you sync the content will get updated with whatever new media and apps you've purchased and selected and you can change your selections any time your device is plugged in via the tabs.
If you're using iTunes to manage multiple devices let us know what tips you've come up with to make your life a little easier. And if you have any questions leave them in the comments!
Tips of the day will range from beginner-level 101 to advanced-level ninjary. If you already know this tip, keep the link handy as a quick way to help a friend. If you have a tip of your own you'd like to suggest, add them to the comments or send them in to firstname.lastname@example.com. (If it's especially awesome and previously unknown to us, we'll even give ya a reward...)
There are 40 comments. Add yours.
The best idea: Playlists. Put stuff (Music, Movies, TV Shows, iTunes U, Books and Podcasts) into a playlist for a family member. Repeat for the number of people in your family. When you sync their respective iOS device, only select their playlist.
It has confused my iPad and iPhone many a times
How about 2 iPhones on one pc? With different info in them. Is it possible?
I have 3 iphone 4s, 1 itouch and 1 ipad all syncing on the same computer to the same itunes account. NO issues ever.
My wife and I both have an iphone 4 + 1 ipod touch. We use one computer to sync all 3 devices. Since we both use the same bookmarks, calendar & contacts we use the same user profile however, Her music preferences differ from mine so we use 2 seperate libraries. To do this is easy all you need to do is hold down the SHIFT key THEN launch Itunes. You will be prompted which library you want to open, choose your library and your good to go. If you need to sync different calendar & contacts and you use one pc you will need to set up 2 user accounts on your system. To share apps and music downloaded from itunes setup the same itunes account on both profiles. You'll need to go into your mobile apps directory and copy the .ipa file to the second profile to sync the apps. This will allow you to purchase one time and share on all devices.
Thanks for all the good info here, I have been lurking since I became an iPhone convert.
My concern right now, is that we have 2 iPhone4s, mine and my wife's, but mine is synced to my computer, as I travel a lot and her's is sync'd to her computer. We use the same iTunes account for both computers. Can I sync the apps for both, so we don't purchase twice?
Also, if we wanted to swap iphones (both on Vodaphone Spain) how would I do this, and still have my setup as I like (reason being, hers is unlocked and mine is locked)?
Or just do what normal people do, create separate accounts on the PC/MAC itself and avoid all of this confusion.
Which, at least on my PC, was a problem as music and vids that I imported to my user account would not show up on my wife's until I manually made iTunes re-check for the new media. Much easier to sync from one account
easiest way by far is to have different mac/pc accounts, I have 1 which is my main account on the PC, and that syncs my iPhone, then I created another account called iPad which does that!
hi I want to ask.. Is it possible using 1 pc for 2 iphones… Is the contact etc doesn't sync each phone.. Coz as I know if we sync it the contact will follow even we unthick the "sync automaticly".. so it will be merge or add more contact in the 2nd phone.. how bout that??
Why not create separate iTunes libraries for each device.
Option+Click on the iTunes icon and choose Create Library and go from there.
Switching library is just an Option+Click away.
I agree the previous post to set up separate users on your Mac/PC.
I wasn't suggesting separate users per device, but multiple libraries, one for each device all on a single iTunes account.
Wife and I share an iTunes account so we don't have to buy things twice. Every time one of us syncs, whatever the other one bought on their phone automatically gets added to the other's phone. Kinda of annoying, but not the end of the world.
There's a setting on the iTunes app sync page for "automatically sync new apps" or something close to that. Unchecked it, and you'll stop having your wife's yoga / cooking / period tracker apps sneaking on to your iPhone!
I hold the shift button whilst opening itunes and it gives a dialog box of which library to open, I have one for myself and one for the misses. Much easier this way than the confusion of how its described in this article.
I agree! Hold the shift while opening iTunes, and "Create New Library". Do that for each device. (For instance - I have a library for HusbandsPod, HusbandsPhone, MyPod, MyPhone, and MyPad)
Then, when you're ready to sync, hold the shift while opening iTunes and "Select Library". Easy!
Hold down Shift?
Surely you mean Option!
Shift doesn't work on my MacBook, only Option gets the dialog for choosing a new or existing iTunes library.
Yea, but how to to manage the contact list on two separate iPhones with separate iTune accounts on the same computer? Some how our contact always merge.
Another question:
I just bought an iPad and I set up a new account for it. I have an older account that I don't use anymore that was used for an old iPod Touch 1st Gen.
Problem is - iTunes still has the old iPod Touch Apps in memory!! Signing out of the old account and into the new one did not help.
What else should I be doing?
When I plug in my iPhone, and try to synch aps, it lists only my daughters iPod touch aps, not mine.
What about backups (content backup, not just the app and its setting)? Will itunes create a separate backup for each device when I manually do so, and will these backups store in different folder in the appData/roaming/../ subfolders?
I'm managing a group of 20 iPods and 10 iPads for my school, all which have all the same apps that need to be on each. Given the quantity of apps, our district decided that it would be to everyone's best interest to sort them all into folders to make them easier to locate. Is there any way to do this without having to go through and create the folder and drag each app into it for every individual device?
I have purchased music from the store down to my iPhone, but I can't get the purchased music to my iTunes without without repicking my entire iTunes library, is there a way to leave my iPhone music alone and sync only the newly purchased music over to iTunes ?
I bought my wife the 4s yesterday. I connected her 3g to my itunes, and backed it up. Then I tried to restore her 4s from the backup I made where her name on it. iTunes started putting all my contacts, emails, etc on her phone. Any suggestions?
We are having the same problem. We have a compilation of 3 contact lists mixed together on our devices.
Please help!
Try setting up different users on the machine that you use to back them up, sort of a pain, but that's what I came down to doing, so it wouldn't co-mingle address books with my wife's iphone.
What about contacts?
My wife and I have different iTunes accounts. We want to share the calendar in particular. How do we share a cloud
Music in iTunes will not sync to my iPhone. Every time I try to sync exclamation points pop up on every song. Also says that it can't find the folders. Do I need to add all my CDs again? Help
It keeps saying that it will erase everything thats on my phone, how do I keep my music thats already on there and add new stuff?
I got my two younger children iPod touches for Christmas and I have them on my iTunes account. Now every time I plug them up to my laptop they automatically sync to one another (ex.every app my son downloaded goes onto my daughters and vice versa. I have no idea how to change these settings. Anyone know? Thanks in advance!
Just bought another iPad. Don't have a computer. Can I copy my iTunes from my iPad to my new one without a computer?
Syncing More than one iPhone: Would really appreciate a MacHead's help here: How do I avoid merging contacts while using one User Account and - as it appears we have already merged our contacts - how do we UNmerge the contacts so that my wife has hers, I have mine...Input appreciated.
Wow, marvelous blog format! How lengthy have you been running a blog for? you made running a blog glance easy. The whole glance of your site is fantastic, let alone the content!
My boyfriend is going through a nasty divorce and got his kids a phone so they can always be in contact with him, well he set it up with his iTunes account so every app he downloads on his phone is going to go to theirs is what I am thinking and not only that but the ex will have all of his phone numbers. We have set up the smart controls but how do we have the kids phone not have all of his info in it?
We are managing a group of 30 iPads for our school, all which have all the same apps that need to be on each. Given the quantity of apps, we'd like to sort them all into folders to make them easier to locate. Is there any way to do this without having to go through and create the folder and drag each app into it for every individual device?
My problem is that I'd like to use some of the same sync settings on two different devices... I use my iPhone and iPad all the time, and since I am constantly listening to music, I like to have the same set of music from my library on both devices. Few things are more frustrating to me than wanting to listen to something specific and not having it on the device I have with me. Because I keep a wide variety of songs, artists, albums, etc. it really takes quite a while to go through the huge lists in the music tab and pick out which ones get synced. Do you know of any iTunes feature I may have missed that might allow me to just... do it once for one device and have it apply to both?

Simple, straightforward and low shipping rates for these toilet repair parts.
Q. "Why do the 84503 and 84499 come with two flush valve gaskets? Don't you only need one gasket for installation?"
A. These repair kits include two slightly different flush valve gaskets so they can be used to repair a variety of toilet models. In the case of the San Raphael, the larger gasket is used when replacing the flush valve for the 3397, while the smaller gasket works perfectly for the 3395.
Q. "How do I adjust the water level for the 84499 conversion kit?"
A. As with any conversion or "will fit" replacement kit, you might need to make slight adjustments for the unit to function exactly like your original valve did. For the 84499 fill valve, you simply turn the adjustment screw counterclockwise to raise the water lever or clockwise to lower the water level. You may need to flush the toilet and keep turning either way until the water level in the tank matches the line on the flush valve overflow tube. If you're not sure where to find the adjustment screw or water level, view our handy parts diagram.
Q. "What are the most commonly replaced toilet parts?"
A.This depends on several factors. Your toilet's trip lever, flapper, and fill valve are operated each time you use your toilet. You will find, however, that the flapper and fill valve are the parts most exposed to water and will be the first ones to wear out in most cases.
Q. "I installed a new fill valve and my new valve comes on (and then goes off) for a few seconds about once per hour?"
A. This could be caused by many things. This most commonly occurs with a Fluidmaster 400. This is a great valve but be sure to install the 1/4" tube per their instructions. Use the clip that comes with it and do not just stick it into the overflow tube or it will go on and off every so often by itself. If that isn't it, take some food coloring and place it in your tank. Wait a few hours and if some of the color has gone into the bowl then you probably need a new flapper.
Q. "Why does my toilet continue to run after flushing?"
A. If you find that the toilet continues to run after flushing, and you have discovered that by jiggling the handle it will stop, then the problem may be that the chain controlling the flapper is too long. When installing your flapper, you want the flapper chain's S-hook in the hole closest to the handle with very little slack in the chain itself. By doing so, when the toilet is flushed, the chain will fall behind the flapper where it won't snag and cause problems such as keeping the flapper from closing properly. Check to make sure that the flapper has enough clearance to close, i.e. not hitting the float ball when the water level drops. You also want to be certain the toilet's flush handle (aka tank lever) is installed securely so it can't rotate too high, hitting the tank's lid (or other parts) and sticking.
Q. "What's the best way to replace my toilet flapper?"
A. Generally, with most toilets: Turn off the water supply and flush the toilet. Reach in and unhook the ears of the flapper and unhook the chain from the trip lever. Install an identical flapper to the original that came from the factory. Do expect to get your hands dirty from the old flapper. Simply reinstall the new one in reverse order. Note that should you have very old brass pipes inside of your toilet, be careful not to be rough on them. They can easily break and end up leaking. After you have replaced your flapper, and the toilet tank bowl has refilled, the water fill valve should not leak (be going on and off in cycles). If it does, then we recommend putting some food coloring into your tank. This can help diagnose the problem. The colored water should not be going into the bowl (unless you flush the toilet of course). If the food color does go into the bowl, then possibly the flapper is not the correct one, the surface where the toilet flapper sits has eroded (feel below where the flapper touched the toilet and see if you can feel erosion/groove), or you may only need to add some slack to the chain.
Q. "How long 'should' the parts inside of my toilet last?"
A. That depends on a number of variables and which parts. Water quality is one of the major factors. If your water source is heavily chlorinated then many parts won't last long. Or if you have a lot of sand or grit or have a low pH or "aggressive" water source then parts simply won't last as long as the 'average' length of time. Also the quality of the parts matters. The replaceable parts such as flappers and washers/seals generally will last at least 4 to 5 years on "average." If you use a chemical bowl cleaner some flappers won't even last one year. However, some toilet bowl cleaners isolate cleanser from the internal workings of the toilet therefore, maximizing the life of your toilet parts. If your flapper has black "goo" on it then it is either due to age or quality of your water and if it feels soft then it's best to change it.

Emerson Lake & Palmer: "The Best of"
This is an incredible sounding CD on SDAs. The soundstage is absoutely huge and the 1.2 TLs simply disappear. Listening to this brought me back to the first ELP concert I attended 38 years ago in Philadelphia. The opening band was a little know group called, "Yes." I was about 13 years old then and needless to say that concert left a lasting impression on me.
Even if you don't like ELP or never even heard of them, this CD is worth every nickel and will blow you away.

Really, though...things like this open me up to more music than I used to listen to 20 years ago when my "blinders" were on. Now, it's a lot more eclectic than it used to be.

I'm of the opinion that hardware will never be an issue as far a shortages go, however, software, that is good music, recorded well on a good medium won't always be available. That is why I have a monthly budget slated just for the acquisition of music.

"Appreciation of audio is a completely subjective human experience. Measurements can provide a measure of insight, but are no substitute for human judgment. Why are we looking to reduce a subjective experience to objective criteria anyway? The subtleties of music and audio reproduction are for those who appreciate it.

Out has released an interview with Dan from the March issue of the magazine, along with a gorgeous new photoshoot.
Speaking to Out's Aaron Hicklin, Dan discussed how he's always known it would be a long process to create a career that isn't defined by his role as Harry Potter – potentially a life-long one. "It's about proving to people that I'm in this for the long haul, and that I wasn't just looking to viagra tablets sale get as famous as I could for as long as I could and order cheapest levitra online ride that out. I love almost every aspect of this industry and I want to be in it, and if I could drop dead on a film set at 80, that's how I'd want to go."
For more from the interview, visit Out.com
Out has released a preview of Dan's interview and photoshoot for the March edition of buy tramadol 180 fedex cod shipping the magazine.
When John Krokidas, the director of Beat-genesis movie Kill Your Darlings, approached Daniel Radcliffe to gauge his interest in playing Allen Ginsberg, he was struck by Radcliffe's humility. Although a marquee name whose involvement could guarantee the levitra viagra price investment necessary to make the film, Radcliffe nevertheless insisted on a proper audition.
"I think he was nervous about whether I would want to audition or not, and so at my first meeting with him I said, 'I want to read, I want to audition,' because at this point in my career, I am aware that my name brings a certain kind of cachet," recalls the actor, who is the face of Out's upcoming March cover. "I want to know that a director wants me for me, rather than for the cachet. I can see why people are skeptical about me playing Allen Ginsberg, because I don't look like him—although, neither does James Franco—and I'm English and middle class, and not from New Jersey, but that's what I think is so exciting about it, because people have no idea. I've always known I have potential to be a good actor, and I think more than a good actor, but I've also at times lacked the tools and didn't have any training. When John was first auditioning me for Ginsberg, we hadn't even done the seventh Harry Potter yet, so I was 17 or 18, and he had nothing else to go on apart from the fact that he'd seen me in Equus."
Director Krokidas recalls the audition as a revelation. "He [Radcliffe] wanted to make sure that the primary creative collaboration in the just try! movie was going to levitra for sale online be between me and him, that our chemistry was going to be successful," he said. "In some Midtown corporate boardroom, the two of us read some lines from the script together, and wow—a lot of actors talk about colors of the rainbow and different facets of emotion in their performance, and Daniel showed me colors I'd never seen before—it was astounding."
Look for Out magazine on news stands in the next few days, or as a digital edition.
USA Today has reported that Dan will be making an appearance at this year's Academy Awards, in a special segment. Details surrounding the ceremony are being kept secret, but show producers Craig Zadan and cialis generic levitra viagra Neil Meron (producers of viagra gel online without prescription Dan's Broadway musical How to Succeed in Business Without Really Trying) have said that the show will have a theme of "music in movies", so it's entirely possible we'll see Dan singing and dancing on http://www.polyairtas.com/buy-xenical-online the Oscars' stage.
Regarding Dan's involvement, Zadan said "We were bewildered. How can you have the biggest franchise in motion-picture history, Harry Potter, and yet no one has ever been on the Oscars? (It) was strange to us."
The Academy Awards take place Sunday 24th February. Check your local TV listings for broadcast times.

I didn't want to go into a Transparent debate on the other thead so I figured starting my own should be fine.
Russ feels Transparent is a joke and I'm looking for his reasons why. Do others feel this way who has experience with Transparent?
Now others can speak up who own MIT as they are a sister company who split off Transparent years ago. There designs are very close to Transparents. Both companies took this technology and went there own way with it but all in all very close.
I personally like both wire companies but I favor Transparent after a one on one demo on Krell and Dynaudio, I felt the Transparent Supers sounded better then the MIT's I forget the correct model but they where white wires with huge white network bricks. WBT type connectors on each end. Nicely built.

The Winner of our iPhone 3G contest is....
The response to our iPhone 3G givaway has been tremendous. We love all the new action in our forums and we fully expect it to continue after this week -- which is to say that The iPhone Blog adores you and will continue to treat you right, stay tuned for future contests in the coming weeks.
Meanwhile, the time has come to announce the winner of our contest as chosen randomly via random.org. It's iLoveiPhones! Check your inbox for an email from me and we'll set you up with the $400 Gift Card we promised so you can be all set for Friday. Happy? Happy! Joy? Joy!
The air of contest finality is thick and we're going to make it thicker still: this is our final Wait-a-Thon post: comment here for your last chance to win a $100 iTunes gift card. We'll be sending out the final gift cards tonight (yes, it's still tough what with Apple's limit to the # we can buy in a month, but we figured out a workaround).
So congratulate iLoveiPhones (a username so good it's gotta be kismet) and let us know: once the iPhone 3G is really and truly out, what sort of stuff do you want TiPb to cover in the coming weeks and months? Are apps king? Shall we pit the iPhone 3G against every other darn smartphone out there, one by one? Should we continue to bring you tips and tricks? What'll it be?
Update: Looks like we made somebody's day. :D
I'm never gonna forget this day. Thanks so much to everyone here at the iPhone forum and the staff at the iPhone Blog. Couldn't have done it without you guys. Being someone who's never won anything, this is quite a day!
There are 52 comments. Add yours.
Congrats to iLoveiPhones!
Congratulations!! I am very happy for you and hope you enjoy it very much!!!
Congrats! I want a recount or something, this was rigged! just kidding. Enjoy and let us know how bad the lines are.
$ 100 itunes gift card for me pls? Yes, no, maybe... anything
Congrats, there!
Congrats to the winner.
As far as future content, the number one thing I want to see is reviews. Cases, Bluetooth headsets, App Store apps, and anything else iPhone related. Doing more reviews may help sales at the Phone Different Store too!
Congratulations to iLoveiPhones. Even though I didn't win. You'd better not be kidding us, we'll mob you if you don't send iLoveiPhones the prize :)
Thanks for the wait-a-thon, prizes, etc. It's been fun to watch!
Awesome contest, awesome results show! Dieter pwnd Ryan Seacrest!
Ladies and Gentlemen, YOUR iPhone 3G iDol!
Congrats iLoveiPhones!!!
Congratulations to the appropriately named iLoveiPhones. As for future coverage, I think an occasional smartphone vs smartphone is fun, but at the same time we're showing that we already chose iPhone by coming to this site, and I would love to see some app reviews here. So I guess the answer is some of both. Keep up the good work!
Congrats to iLoveiPhones ... of course, with a name like that, it almost seems like the winner was picked by name . . . :)
As far as future content, I agree with Nathan that reviews would be good. Of course, reviewing things that you DON'T SELL in the Phone Different store would lend credence that you're not just posting the review as a mini-infomercial. Also, it would be helpful if you reviewed several similar products in a category and did a compare/contrast among 5 or 6 and not just a stand-alone review 1 product at time.
I agree with WatersWest, PLEASE don't review products because you're trying to sell them or are getting paid by somebody.
hehe no surprise . . . i think i saw a post of theirs on almost every forum :P anyway, congrats and i hope you enjoy your free Phone! But i do hope that i can win the iTunes money so i can fill my comming BIRTHDAY PRESNT!!
Either way i have like 14GB of music :)
Congratulations, it was a fun contest. Let's just hope everyone else who signed up to the site isn't going to drop off now. This site is pretty cool to begin with, my only regret is not signing up sooner and just being a reader of the place. Thanks everyone for all your discussions on the forums.
Congratulations, iLoveiPhones! Man, I was really hoping it was going to be me, but oh well…
I know I'm not planning on ditching this site, even though I didn't win...
I'm never gonna forget this day. Thanks so much to everyone here at the iPhone forum and the staff at the iPhone Blog.
Couldn't have done it without you guys. Being someone who's never won anything, this is quite a day!
Once again, Thank you.
i hope that the traffic in the forum doesnt slow down too much now that the contest is over, it keeps me entertained at work. Everyone keep up the great work in teh forum and keep posting about your new Iphones. ALSO we shoudl try and draw attention of softwear developers and get them to start using the forum as a place to test ideas out. A few weeks ago we had somone asking questions about a movie/resturant rating app. WHICH WAS GREAT! i think we shoudl try to draw some mroe attention so that developers can get feedback from real iphone lovers.
I'm, of course, sour that I didn't win. However, congrats iLoveiPhones. In the coming weeks, if possible, try to give out $30 gift cards to the Apple store. Everyone could use some iPhone docks, right?
I thought I was the one grrrr j/k :D Congrats iLoveiPhones - enjoy your new iPhone. I'll still be getting mine on Friday. I think one of the best things about this contest is that I got the chance to "meet" so many other iPhone fans. It's been great reading all the posts here. I'll have to continue spending time here - maybe I can win the next model of iPhone hehehe :D
iLoveiPhones! Congrats!
cool...the winner is the luckiest to win the first iphone.
Congrats! What a nice surprise just a couple of days before iPhone 3G release! Have fun with that gift card!
I think some smart phone vs. Smarter phone (iPhone 3G) would be cool.
Also is this where I enter for the $100 dollar iTunes Gift Certificate?
Congrats iLoveiPhones! Enjoy...
As to the future, I'd certainly like to see tips and tricks continue, but I think apps will be where the action is. TiPb should be the primo independent source of apps; news, reviews, etc.
That lucky iloveiphones! I'd like to see info about less obvious but still useful tools for the new iphone. Things I might not find myself.
Congratulations ILoveiphones! Only one more day to go, Yah!
Like others have said, it would be cool to see reviews of and news about apps.
...so, you were going to buy an iPhone 3G right?
Wanna donate the money to me so I can buy one?
Dang it. Ah well, congratulations. I love how appropriate your name is for this contest. I wish you and your iphone the best of luck
Congrats to iLoveiPhones! You know, if you're giving away your gift card, I'd be happy to receive it...
Congrats I'm glad I got to talk to you. I had a strange feeling you'd win something..
Or how about we just let iLoveiPhones do as he/she pleases?
its so cool that a real person won i thought it was going to a fake person.
agian congrats
@Dieter Bohn
How do we know it's not you that's lying about who they are :).
E-mail me and I'll give you iLoveiPhones address. Okay, Dieter? And don't read the line below, it's only for the commenters. I'm serious.
For commenters ONLY: I think Dieter is going to fall for it. I'm going to get a free iPhone!! I rulz.
the ultimate cool: winning an iPhone.
Congrats champ! I'm still holding out for a $100 itunes gift card, pretty please? I promise to use it to buy some apps at the app store and provide a solid writeup for you guys to use. BTW, loving the accuweather iphone web app - you guys should write that one up next. It kills the native weather app - sat feed pictures every 15 mins, hour by hour forecasts graphically depicted, 15 day forecast. Tough to beat, can't wait to get an installed version from the app store.
wow. And I'll say it again... Wow.
Too bad today wasn't my lucky day, but congrats man.
Congrats to iLoveiPhones. I'm extremely jealous, nah I'm happy for them. I'm crossing my fingers and praying to the iPhoneBlog Gods for one last chance to win a $100 iTunes card but if I don't win, well c'est la vie.
Hey guys I hope you plan on covering as many of the new apps as possible. The most important part of this whole iPhone 3G business isn't the phone itself but rather the 2.0 software. And because all of us 1st gen iPhone users and iPod touch owners will be able to use these apps too the product reviews will be very important.
Bummed I didn't win, but that's okay. I'll keep coming back.
Congrats! I'd say app reviews and product reviews would be good. Keep the jailbreaking info coming in case there are good apps worth jailbreaking for: such as VoIP over cellular network or turn-by-turn GPS directions or other handy apps that don't play by Apple's rules.
Congrats to the winner. I guess I'll be paying for my own iPhone on Fri.
Congratulations to iLoveiPhones!
For someone who has never won anything this is a great first. Congratulations!!!
Congrats on the iPhone winner. It must feel great! It was a very fun contest and I love this forum. Keep up the great work in the blog!
I've never spent any time in the forum, but I really like the blog posts. Keep it up! Oh, and congratulations to the winner!
Judging by the random.org URL that your link points to, the odds of winning the iPhone were 1 in 86. That's not as bad as I thought...
Pick me!!! Please!
it would be cool to see reviews of and news about apps.
