I spent the day with my lovely husband and vibrant children so I didn't really speak with you today, but maybe you left me a voicemail or a text or maybe you facebooked me and you've already said "happy birthday!" and that means you thought of me today, you took a moment from your life to place some happiness into mine. That was so nice of you, and you made me smile.
And have I told you about the sleeping? I slept today. I slept in this morning past 10am. I can, you know, because it's my birthday.
It's been my birthday since Thursday night because that's the good thing about having a birthday the day after a national holiday that's also a religious holiday but not your own religious holiday. I take the whole weekend for my birthday, every year. It's my birthday, so who would argue? Sometimes I let my birthday continue until just after New Year's. I'm not trying to be greedy, but there's no reason not to -- it is a festive time of year.
My kids surprised me with a chocolate-candy-covered chocolate-frosted chocolate cake and they stuck 34 candles in it and they sang Happy Birthday to me after their daddy lit the candles for them. And then they said, let's blow out all her candles! and they did while I laughed. They're impulsive and assumptive and genuinely happy for me, and for my birthday. And while I never got a chance to make a wish it's okay, because they're my wish I never knew I even wished come true, anyway. And then they asked, next year, can we put 35 candles on your cake? And I said, "sure!" because that's the fun of birthdays.
The thing about my birthday that's better than your birthday is that it falls at the end of the year. It's tidy for the thinking. I can be all reflective about the past year. I can think about 2010 or I can think about being 33 but it's all the same thinking. Every year is a year of magical thinking, that way. This was a good year, and that's a nice thing to realize when you get to your birthday.
I survived being pregnant in the blizzards and had our last baby and found some cherish-worthy new friendships and laughed a lot with my lovely husband and deported some baggage-ish inhibitions and snuggled my children and delighted in them when I wasn't exasperated by them and it was a good year, 2010/33. That means 2011/34 is starting from a good place. It's nice to feel optimistic, on a birthday day of reflection and projection.
I love birthdays; don't you? They're cake and frosting and wishes made with or without candles and hand-lettered rainbow markered cards and no-share chocolate pizza and the promise of more of this good life. I'm 34 today, and emphatically happy. Happy my birthday to you and to me. I feel good about my 34 and our 2011; don't you?

Masterson out to complete weekend sweep of Sox
Chicago hopes Sale can end series on a high note
Baseball is supposed to be a fun game, but it becomes a difficult endeavor to enjoy when a team loses as much as the Chicago White Sox have this season.
With Saturday's 4-3 loss, the last-place White Sox (32-46) have dropped four games in a row. Three of those losses have come courtesy of the Indians, who will be seeking a sweep in Sunday's series finale at U.S. Cellular Field. Both clubs will send their aces to the hill, with Justin Masterson scheduled to pitch for the Tribe opposite Chicago's Chris Sale.
Sale (5-6, 2.75 ERA) is winless in five June starts. He did, however, strike out 14 Astros on June 14 and 13 Mets on Tuesday. The lefty will look to turn around his own misfortunes, as well as those of his club against the Indians.
"It's not been fun for almost everybody in here," veteran Paul Konerko said. "Everybody has not had fun, as far as the team goes -- and only a couple [of] guys have enjoyed their own seasons. It's just not been a fun ride."
Cleveland, meanwhile, is having a ball. The second-place Indians (43-38) have won nine of their past 12 games.
Throughout the season, Nick Swisher has been one of the most enthusiastic ringleaders in the Tribe's clubhouse. A bum shoulder and a stressful slump combined to bother Swisher over the last month or so, but he seems to have turned things around.
After belting a game-winning homer in the second game of Friday's doubleheader, Swisher drove in the go-ahead run in Saturday's 4-3 victory.
"He feels good about himself," Cleveland manager Terry Francona said recently. "Boy, there'd be nothing better than to see him get hot."
The Indians usually feel good about themselves when Masterson (9-6, 3.76 ERA) takes the ball. In eight road starts, though, the sinkerballer is 3-5 with a 5.54 ERA.
Indians: Perez solid in return from DL
• Closer Chris Perez worked a perfect ninth inning on Saturday to pick up his first save since May 11. Perez, who came off the disabled list on Thursday, also threw a scoreless ninth in the first game of Friday's doubleheader, with the Indians leading by nine runs.
"I was very pleased with his delivery," Francona said afterward. "He was down. He was locating real well. It didn't look like he was overthrowing. I thought he looked pretty good. I was glad that was how we got him into a game. He was able to finish it, but he had a little cushion."
Perez has a 3.86 ERA and is 7-for-9 in save opportunities this season.
• Second baseman Jason Kipnis has been hot all month, but he's been particularly dangerous during this weekend series in Chicago. He went 2-for-3 and hit a game-tying, two-run homer in the sixth inning on Saturday.
His combined production from the past three games includes a .600 average (6-for-10) with three doubles, a homer, six runs scored, six RBIs and two stolen bases. Kipnis has also reached base in 32 straight games.
White Sox: Dunn wrapping up swell month
• Adam Dunn hit his ninth home run of the month on Friday. Though he went 0-for-5 with three strikeouts on Saturday, Dunn has played about as well in June as he has in any other month since joining the White Sox two years ago. In 26 games this month, Dunn is batting .272 (25-for-92) with 24 RBIs and 17 runs scored. He's also compiled 24 walks (including three that were intentional) and 25 strikeouts.
"His at-bats have been good. He's made solid contact," White Sox manager Robin Ventura said. "He looks as good as he did last year during points of just being on pitches and having tough at-bats.
"He's a threat when he goes up there. Again, it's the approach he's had the last three weeks of taking pitches and getting deep into counts. This is solid contact."
In 74 games this season, Dunn is batting .196 with 21 home runs and 52 RBIs.
Worth noting
• Cleveland has won six of its eight games against the White Sox this year. In those contests, the Indians outscored Chicago, 48-33. After Sunday, the two clubs will meet again on July 29 for the first of four games at Progressive Field.
• Prior to Saturday, Jesse Crain had made 31 straight appearances without allowing an earned run. That streak came to an end when Swisher's eighth-inning single brought home Asdrubal Cabrera, sending Crain and the White Sox to another loss.

Calling the Police: Citizen Reporting of Serious Crime, 1979 (ICPSR 8185)
Principal Investigator(s): Spelman, William; Brown, Dale K.
This dataset replicates the citizen reporting component of POLICE RESPONSE TIME ANALYSIS, 1975 (ICPSR 7760). Information is included on 4,095 reported incidents of aggravated assault, auto theft, burglary, larceny/theft offenses, forcible rape, and robbery. The data cover citizen calls to police between April 21 and December 7, 1979. There are four files in this collection, one each for Jacksonville, Florida, Peoria, Illinois, Rochester, New York, and San Diego, California. The data are taken from police dispatch records and police interviews of citizens who requested police assistance. Variables taken from the dispatch records include the dispatch time, call priority, police travel time, age, sex, and race of the caller, response code, number of suspects, and area of the city in which the call originated. Variables taken from the citizen interviews include respondent's role in the incident (victim, caller, victim-caller, witness-caller), incident location, relationship of caller to victim, number of victims, identification of suspect, and interaction with police.

Weird iPhone habits: Open slots, default layouts, and ringer switches, oh my...
Smartphones and other mobile technology are very personal devices. Not just that they're something that we have on us all the time, but they're devices that we customize to suit exactly our needs and our needs alone. We get used to how they're set up, and if we're handed somebody else's iPhone, well, we're lost. Just try dealing with somebody who has different Smart Corner settings on their Mac than you - it's maddening.
In customizing the set-ups for our devices we also customize our interactions with them. We develop weird habits and tendencies. Some of us are compulsive about the placement of icons in the launcher, others only want specific things in Notification Center. Sometimes it's about where we put the phone, and sometimes we just don't give a damn about some things that drive others insane.
Upon realizing that I do some weird and obsessive things with my iPhone, I asked the iMore editorial staff what weird things they do, and it turns out, we're weird. But you already knew that.
Keeping a slot open for... - Allyson Kazmucha
My main screen on my iPhone and iPad are my most used apps. If I don't use them on a regular basis, they're all put into folders and not allowed to run amuck causing chaos. I don't alphabetize things but they all have to be in correct folders under a descriptive category. My iPhone and iPad also have the same workflow so no matter what device I'm on, I know where to find things.
I'm super picky about Notification Center and what order notifications show up in. Things like email, messages, and Twitter must populate towards the top with lesser important things on the bottom.
My biggest nitpick is ugly icons. If an app has an ugly icon, it goes in a folder, no exceptions. My Home screen must be visually appealing at all times and an ugly icon will throw off that balance. Album art must also be present for everything in my music library or it makes me twitch in cover flow mode. I will literally delete a song from my iPhone if there is no album art.
My weirdest quirk is probably that I need to have at least one empty slot on my first Home screen. I'm not quite sure why but I've done this as long as I can remember. I don't know why it bothers me to have a full page of icons but it does and I must have one free slot on my main page or I feel dirty. Call me weird, I already know I am and I accept it.
Default all the things - Chris Parsons
I have to have my main home screen stock. I do it on all devices except for Android, because Android such a cluster f*** of ugly icons some of it has to be hidden.
Triple-teaming the ringer switch - Derek Kessler
I know the ringer switch vibrates when I switch it to silent and doesn't when I flip it to noise. But when switching from silent to ring without looking at the screen, I always have to flip it three times: ring, silent (so it buzzes), and back to ring. Sometimes I do the same thing when switching to silent: silent (buzz), ring, silent (buzz). I don't know why, but it's like I subconsciously don't trust the switch.
I'm a little psychotic about my app organization. The first page is home to the apps I use the most, and those are alphabetically arranged (excepting the dock). The next page is also alphabetically arranged, with my tier of second-most-used apps but not daily or need-quickly apps out and everything else is put into folders which are... alphabetically-arranged and separated. The only exception are my games, which are put into their own folder, yet still alphabetical inside. Reason being: I'm usually looking for a specific app (except for games), not a category of apps, and muscle memory can guide me. And organization, man.
Updates… what updates? - Georgia
The strangest thing about myself and my iPhone is that I rarely let it be far from my side.
So if I have to go somewhere and my outfit has no pockets ill place my phone in the inside of my pant belt so I can keep my previous close at hand.
My phone is also always on silent with no vibration on. So calling me rarely gets a immediate pick up. I started this due to my job as a therapist but then quickly realized that I am more relaxed when I am not hopping for my phone.
I also don't ever update my phones applications unless there is something I really want in the update. Strange part is that I never read what the update so I find things out by people telling me something cool has changed. At one point I had 150 plus updates on my phone.
And no I don't wear my iPhone as a hat, that rumor was a lie.
Weirdos all of you - Leanna Lofte
Um... I don't do anything weird with my iPhone that I know of. I don't organize my apps... my home screen isn't even that thought out. I could care less how my apps are organized because I just use Spotlight. Spotlight is way faster.
You're all a bunch of freaks.
That like-new look - Peter Cohen
I like to leave the home screen bone stock.
I pile it full of apps on the second page and beyond, but I want my home screen to look like it did when it came out of the box.
Captain Default - Rene Ritchie
I keep my iPhone Home screen stock. What Apple loads, I keep. That's because I switch devices and restore devices a lot. I do add a few apps to the empty spaces, namely Fantastical, the iMore app, and Tweetbot. If I haven't switched or restored in a while, I'll add Launch Center Pro to my dock, because, awesome.
So I may not be Captain Default exactly, but I'm not Mr. Excitement by any means either.
Line it up - Richard Devine
I'm absolutely no tidy freak, far from it. Just take a look in my office any given day of the week and you'll see that. But, for whatever reason I am totally OCD about where stuff sits on my desk, especially my iPhone. It has to be in one of the corners, and it has to sit absolutely in line with both straight edges of the desk.
I also put it on something, like a magazine, or some random paper. Because I don't keep it in a case at home -- cases aren't nice in hero shots -- and I absolutely hate the idea of any thing on the desk damaging or just making dirty the back of my phone.
How weird are you?
There you go, we've bared our weirdness to the world, and, well… what weird people we are. It takes some self awareness to realize these oddities, and if there's anything we should be as technology users, it's aware of how we use that tech.
We're all weird, but in our own unique ways. Except for the Captain Default crowd out there, you're just weird together. What weird iPhone habits and compulsions have you picked up over the years? Sound off in the coments.

Weird iPhone habits: Open slots, default layouts, and ringer switches, oh my...
I'm a hybrid of several of these...
1) I leave 1 spot open on each home screen
2) I leave my first screen with all default Apple icons
3) The 2nd page is strictly regularly used apps then everything else is in folders
That phone is one of the LEAST CUSTOMIZABLE phones on the market!
But you guys are STILL getting your panties in a bunch over having to use someone elses handset (to the point that you're incapable of using it)?
You guys have nothing to complain about until you have to get used to someone else's LAUNCHER in addition to their different choice of screen transitions, gestures, system keyboard, system sounds, system font, icon size, number of rows and columns for icon grid (which don't just wrap), etc....
After trying a handful of methods I finally came up with my personal organization technique. First, I keep the bottom row of clear of any apps because I think it looks very clean. It was difficult selecting which apps made it on my main screens, but switching to the iPhone 5 granted me a much needed extra row.
My first two screens are split up by category -- fun and business. The fun screen includes social media, news and entertainment apps, and the business screen is for utilities, finance and productivity apps. My third page is for categorized folders that contain most of my remaining apps.
@Georgia, I love your tendancy to not update. I remember a podcast a year ago where it was discussed an you indicated that you like had hundreds of mac updates waiting and simply didn't care. Hilarious. A great contrast to the I must have the latest update crowd. That immediately vaulted you to the top of my favorite imore personalities. (Derek: honorable mention because you spell your name wrong. lol)
side note: I never update my computer but compulsively update my iphone apps as i hate that red circle.
My habits:
home screen only has 4 top row icons, nothing in the middle to see wallpaper.
Icons have most used, ones closet to the home page
stuff rarely used are in folders, and on the last page.
I can't have icon gaps. they all must be filled in.
Nothing is alphabetized, simply within a folder, most used apps are always towards the top.
My favorite is when I update an app and it causes it to crash constantly. Sigh...
too bad i can't stand badges on the App Store app. That overrides my sense of logic.
EXACTLY!!! Way too many times i've updated windows (yeah i'm on a windows machine. sorry) and broken the whole darn machine. Two days later i have the darn thing dismantled and windows discs out trying to clean install and wondering, "What kinda moron updates windows explorer when i never ever ever uses it." If it ain't broke.
Red Circle? Nope. I'm a Virgo. Things need to be in order. lol. Darn red circle bugs me. "Go away circle! Stop looking at me! Fine! I'll update."
Oh Exception: Gmail app. I use the native email app more and for some reason i'm fine with the Gmail App having a red icon with 232 unread. lol.
I keep the apps I might need to get to fast on the first page even if I don't use them much, Second page I keep stuff I use alot and games on however Many pages I need after that and a folder on the last page of Defaults and stuff I can Quickly access from launch center, I keep my phone on Vibrate most of the time Because I just find Noise on the small Speakers Annoying
"If an app has an ugly icon, it goes in a folder" made me laugh a lot.
It had never even occurred to me that anyone would be OCD enough to alphabetize their apps (mine are all in category folders).
That said- I do update each device at least once a day whenever I pick it up (I have a 5 or 6, as I'm a developer, so it does get to be a pain) and I also do the triple-mute-switch thing.
I change my home pictures and lock screen pic all the time. I cant stand the badge icon telling you that you have 5 emails unchecked or 10 podcast not played so i read emails right away, or remove that option in the notification settings. I always had 2 home screens nice and neat but i just moved to 3 now all games are in there own folder also picture apps and some more. Is that weird lol
I have exactly the same organizational habits as Allyson, including the blank space on the home screen...and it's interesting that others here do that as well, or variations like an empty row. There's something about not wanting to see that first screen filled to capacity that just seems right to some of us. I wonder why that is?
I always immediately update apps, I despise the notification bubble on my apps.
I organize my apps by most used, every so often I'll put them in folders and all on the home screen, and then I get tired of opening folders and reorganize by most used. From left to right top to bottom like a book.
I've also decided to leave my sounds default so it sounds like every iPhone on TV.
I switch cases far too often and I want more. I want to find a nice balance of protection, minimalism and flash with the exterior of my phone.
Habits of mine: The main home screen is the default layout with the stock iOS wallpaper. Every subsequent home screen will only have a 4x4 grid of icons (I refuse to use the fifth row) and folders must only occupy the right column. I always have to be on the main home screen when I lock my iPhone or I will unlock it and put it there. I refuse to use apps that have a crappy icon. Every song MUST have album artwork and correct metadata which is why I don't use iTunes Match on my phone. I quit all non-stock apps as soon as I close them. There's probably a bunch of other little things I'm forgetting.
I'm definitely the type of person that has to have every app except Music, Messages, and Twitter in a folder and everything has to be in alphabetical order. Which was one of my main reasons for jailbreaking my device, to have folders inside of folders with unlimited space. My homescreen is completely empty so I can fully enjoy my wallpaper. I HAVE to have the correct information and album art for all of my songs. Notifications have to be in a specific order. My contacts have to have first AND last names, no nicknames or anything added. I close every app when I'm done using it except for Settings, Camera, and Music. Every badge HAS to be checked as soon as possible, I hate seeing those little numbers, but I refuse to turn badges off.
I'm the exact opposite of Georgia. I have to have things updated. I hate bubbles on apps/folders. I update apps asap and make sure to clear/view emails, texts, Facebook, Twitter, and missed calls/voicemails promptly. My dad's phone always has several un-listened to voicemails and probably no less than 130 unread emails at any given time. It drives me crazy.
So far I haven't seen anyone mention this habit: I move all my icons to the 2nd page, and have the 1st page empty. I like to see my wallpaper. I also put all my apps in folders by category, except for Calendar, Weather, Passbook, Camera, and my dock apps for phone, sms, email, and Safari. Games/Sports/News/Misc apps go on the 3rd page. Store apps folder, utilities, productivity, travel/navigation, social, remote (vivint, nest, Apple's Remote app, Sonos), and Shopping folders go on the 2nd page.
When jailbroken I keep all my folders cut down via infinifolders and use infinidock to add extra apps to the dock. I also dislike bulky cases. I usually only use front/back screen protectors and bumper cases, usually from Spigen.
I'm actually a lot like claustin. Having bubbles on my apps is a no-no... it drives me absolutely insane. My first page is filled with apps that are most likely to have bubbles (Facebook, Hangouts, GroupMe, etc.). Anything on pages after are things that rarely-if-ever would have bubbles (Pandora, games, etc).
I'm Mr. Hyper Organised. Every single app, including the stock apps goes into a folder. No app is allowed to stand alone. Folders on my home screen in alphabetical order and apps in folders in alpha order to. Folders in the dock too, except for the Phone icon which is the only one I allow to stand alone. And only one home screen. Hate having more than one home screen.
And like jwalk128, I have contacts organised, and check every single badge because I too hate seeing those red badges. And I clear out my phone log daily. As well as my messaging/iMessage conversations.
But no, I'm not OCD or anything!
OCD for the win.
My main screen cannot have more than 8 icons (4s) and when I get a 5 Im sure that will remain 8 or maybe 12. But I can't have any weird dangling chad or "open spaces" on any but the last screen or in folders. On my main screen I have: Calendar, TeuxDeux, Photos, Camera on top, then Contacts, Notes, Clock and Settings on the 2nd row. My "launch pad" on the bottom is Phone, Mail, Messages and Safari.
My 2nd screen is all foldered apps, 12 folders exactly, and they're organized by type: Graphics, Photography, Financial, Utilities, Travel, Food/Health, Shopping 1, Shopping 2, Entertainment, "Stuff", Social, Games. If I fill up a folder and need space, app I haven't used in a while (or ever) gets deleted. On page 3, I have Newstand and Passbook, two things that I don't use or probably won't ever use on my phone because I can't get my magazines subs on my Newstand on my phone, and Passbook isn't what it should be yet so I don't bother. They're on page three to hide them since I can't totally folder them or delete them.
Notifications are only allowed from Mail, Messages, Phone and Calendar, all in lock screen, with a ding of some kind and popup banner. All other notifications are off. All location services are off with exception of Find my iphone, unless immediately in use, then I turn them right back off. Wifi and BT are off unless I need them and then as soon as I am done I turn them back off. And I almost always update my apps within 24 hours if not immediately.
My phone is always in a hard case, with a screen protector, and unless it is on a charger, I have a rubber "charge port plug thing" in the charge port to keep dust and splashes out, and I always have a little plug protector in the headphone jack as well, bec I only use the headphones when on a plane. If I am not in my house, my phone goes in another soft case pouch, and then into my purse, because even naked it doesn't fit in my jeans pocket (chick jeans do not have large man pockets!) or I carry it if Im just running somewhere. I NEVER toss it, I am super anal-retentive about placements.
I have two icons in the dock and right now it's KitCam and the iPhone native camera. My home screen is blank so I can have a nice photo (one that I took) and nothing else. Then on every screen thereafter I leave the bottom row empty so when I swipe from screen to screen I don't accidentally open an app.
Screen 2 is the apps I use most, positioned around the outside of the circle of 12 (I'm on a 4S) and the two in the middle are next in priority. 3rd screen is the same concept.
The rest of the screens have apps grouped in folders by category and the folders are listed alphabetically.
I don't like folders. Each screen is therefore separated into categories...default, media, games, utilities, networks.
Also need 1 open space. No ugly icons.
No notifications except for txt and phone.
No duplicate type of apps for the same use ie 2 note apps, calendars.
My lock screen is always my cat, my home screen a band. My brightness is always really low. All my music has custom covers.
Hmm. I had to close safari to see what kinds of weirdness I'm into.
1. I change my home screen image often, because I'm never satisfied with the way the icons look on the background.
2. I recently put everything in folders, but new downloads have been left to languish on the second page that I rarely look at.
3. If I don't use an app at least once a week, I delete it... No matter how much space is on the phone.
4. My lock screen is a picture of my son, always. Homescreen is usually my daughter or something my daughter 'does' (like her art etc). My husband has tried to psychoanalyse this behavior...thanks Carl Jung
5. I never answer the phone. Ever. I use it more as an iPad and I'm a misanthropic geek who'd rather relinquish my Signed copy of The Hot Zone than talk on the phone.
I leave the 5th column totally empty on all pages because if I don't I feel it looks too cluttered. Always.
I once had all my apps on one page (most in folders save for the more critical ones), relying on launch-centre-pro and notifications to zip between apps. It helped that I didn't really have that many to begin with (after spring-cleaning away the unused ones).
Just for the heck of it, I switched back the the old grid-of-icons layout, because I found I enjoyed flicking through screens of apps more (though I won't say it has been any more efficient).
Thrilled to find I am not alone! Settings icon MUST be in upper left corner of first screen, camera in lower right. Other than that, apps I use most on first screen, lots of folders on first and second screen, third screen all games, fourth just miscellaneous I haven't found a home for or don't use much but don't want to give up just yet. On a recent visit to Apple Store to buy earbuds, Blue Shirt chastised me when he saw I had 103 updates on phone. I hate keeping them current plus what if an update is flawed and everything gets screwed up. Why can't Apple make it so when you update on one device, it updates on all? I have an iPhone, iPad and Mini!
I'm in the open space on the home screen camp for sure.
Other than that, I'm not that exciting except for a couple of things.
1) I always have to clear out badges, I hate looking at them.
2) My home screen wallpaper always has to be a dark-ish minimal style. Even though I know what the icon is, if I can't read the text under the icon clearly then it just bothers me.
I cannot stand having unread notifications (or the number counter in the top right hand corner of the app) on my iPhone or iPad, so what Georgia does with the apps would drive me nuts. I'm so crazy about it that I will even go on my wifey's iPhone and clean hers up, although she has tons of personal email which I have no desire to go through so I always leave that unread. This is one reason I wish apps like Facebook had better syncing across iOS devices. I hate having to do this stuff twice!
I once had all my apps organized by color.
That habit stopped once folders came along. I love the folders.
Not so much a habit *on* the phone, but *around* the phone.
When we sit down to eat, all phones go on the table so nobody is tempted to start screwing around with web/email/messaging. (I'm a worse offender than my kids.)
I love that I'm not the only weird one out there. I tend to organize my icons by color when they're on one of my screens and not in a folder. Also, my Settings app always has to be in the bottom right hand corner of the home screen. I rearrange apps to make that happen. Ugly icons go into a folder.
LOL! I pretty much fall into the same level of weirdness as Allyson Kazmucha!! From keeping one slot empty on the home screen to keeping ugly icons tucked away in folders. But most importantly is the album art...
I just can't stand having songs without proper album art in my collection. I have an increasing number of songs in my library right now and only those are synced with my iPhone that I have already fixed with the proper information and album artwork. I even grabbed Rinse for iTunes to automatically fix the songs but alas! that didn't fix the songs properly and the album artwork that it set on most wasn't high resolution making 'em appear blotchy/pixelized on the iPhone's gorgeous display.
So every weekend, I spend an hour or two updating as many additional songs as I can with the proper tags and high resolution album artwork. My wife keeps teasing me about that... ;)
Apart from that; I always have to have my applications updated to the latest version. And can't bear having any apps installed on my phone that I know that I won't use.
My home tscreen has 3 folders and 4 icons on the bar-that's it, so you can see the background. A-G, I-O, and R-Y. Favorites. Screen 2 has Newsstand and the rest is folders. Screen 3 has new apps not organized yet. Everything is in alphabetical order, folders and apps. Favorites list is personal #'s on top half, and business #'s on the bottom. Ipad and Iphone match eachother pretty much, even done to the alert tones.
The way my iPhone is structured is having my homescreen fully covered with apps that I need the most and are organized based on function and where I'm used to them being. Then my second screen is full of other apps that did not make it but still organized similarly with a folder at the end titled "other" and containing everything else alphabetically. Finally, the third screen contains games also organized alphabetically then a last page for testing new apps.
I am an OCD Minimalist...if that is a real term. I have 2 screens and I will delete an app if my 6 folders are full just so I don't create a new screen. I have all my most used apps on main page and second tier ones on top of 2nd screen with all other random ones in folders. Settings has to be the very last icon for quick access. Also 2 similar color icons can not be next to each other. I never noticed these before I read this article.
I also refrain from updating my apps. This is a behavior that I carried over from Android. Sometimes, the first iteration of an app is perfect...then 'improvement updates' break it. I still have my reel to reel version of the podcast app :D

Without (yet) having the benefit of getting this information through reading (to be done), I would like to ask:
In the sentences of this kind: "Having come to the city, I entered a shop." or "Having knocked, the door opened." would you expect frequently the participle of perfect in the Attic Greek? I know that logically it should be here (because this is exactly how would one describe the perfect: it fits the definition), but I wonder if there is maybe some different (counter-intuitive) use in Attic that for example in these type of clauses one finds rather the participle of aorist, etc.
To rephrase the question: are there some participles which are really rarely used (and/or some other participles are used in their place) and are rather avoided? (Like in this particular case?)
But I'm just purely curious, I don't propose or claim anything...
Thank you!

by Kristen Schaub Remarkably realistic performance and a compact footprint Polk's LSi M 703 gives you the kind of high-end performance that's characteristic of the LSi M line's larger floor-standing model, but in a smaller, more flexible bookshelf speaker. You'll hear a wide, deep soundstage with realistic imaging fleshed out in pinpoint detail, and complemented by surprisingly deep bass even without a sub. Use a pair of LSi M 703s to create a compact stereo music system or as front speakers in a high-end home theater system. Building upon the widely acclaimed LSi family of speakers, the new LSi M series incorporates the latest developments in speaker technology, fitted into a newly designed enclosure that's beautifully sculpted and luxuriously finished. Polk's Dynamic Sonic Engine: The speaker within a speaker An exploded view of the Dynamic Sonic Engine with the tweeter and midrange on the upper part of the speaker. Like Polk's larger, floor-standing LSi M models, this smaller bookshelf speaker uses a Dynamic Sonic Engine. Made up of a 3-1/4" midrange driver and a 1" ring radiator tweeter in its own acoustically sealed enclosure, this tightly spaced duo acts like a "mini-monitor." The precise alignment of the midrange and tweeter allows them to disperse sound over a wide, uniform area with excellent off-axis response in the critical 200 Hz to 2,000 Hz midrange. The ring radiator tweeter features several improvements from the version in the earlier LSi line. A slight reshaping of the tweeter's bullet-shaped phase plug allows it to move even farther out of the baffle, while a redesigned diaphragm has made the tweeter even more efficient. It even has its own tuned enclosure within the Dynamic Sonic Engine. These changes result in higher power handling, extended dynamic range, improved dispersion, and extended high-frequency response all the way up to 30,000 Hz! Advanced driver material for even more realistic sound The original LSi speakers featured a light, stiff mineral-filled polypropylene cone that was "puffed up" with injected air to form a honeycomb-like structure. The new super cell aerated polypropylene uses larger "puffed cells" to create a cone material that's thicker yet lighter than the original. It's used in both the midrange and woofer, allowing them to move faster and with more efficiency. This speaker also uses proprietary Orth Crossovers to send the right frequencies to the right drivers, making it extremely efficient and easier for your receiver or amplifier to drive. PowerPort technology for smooth, deep bass Like all LSi M speakers, the 6-1/2" woofer has its own PowerPort®. Designed exclusively by Polk, this specially designed "cone" at the mouth of the bass port directs moving air to eliminate bass-stealing turbulence. No turbulence means no wasted power, which means more efficient bass response. You'll hear surprisingly deep bass for a bookshelf speaker that blends smoothly with the mid- and high-frequencies. Careful cabinet design with a stunning real wood veneer The '703 cabinet is made of heavily braced 3/4" thick MDF with an even thicker front baffle (1-1/4") to keep distortion to a minimum. Each driver has its own separate, non-parallel chamber to increase the efficiency of each driver and eliminate internal resonances and standing waves. Dual gold-plated binding posts let you bi-amp or bi-wire this speaker for even better performance. The magnetic grille easily snaps on and off, and it measures less than 1mm thick, so it won't interfere with the sound. And finally, the curved cabinet is finished with a furniture-grade, real-wood veneer that's hand-polished to achieve a gorgeous glow in your home. Achieve startling realism and seamless surround effects when you build a complete LSi M system. All LSi M models feature the same components and tuning, so you can create any combination of bookshelf or floor-standing speakers in the front of your room with a center channel speaker for crisp dialogue, and either additional bookshelf speakers or dedicated surround speakers in the back of your room for wraparound sound effects.

Bookshelf speakers may be small in size, but they can deliver surprisingly big sound. Some ultra-compact models even fit on a desktop. Most are right at home in tight spaces like shelves, so they're usually good choices for your home theater's rear channels. For the best performance, try placing bookshelf speakers on solid speaker stands to help the sound really "open up." If you want full bass impact, add a powered subwoofer and enjoy punchy sound that's as deeply satisfying as that of floor-standing speakers.
There is no speaker Written By Dan, New Hampshire on Tuesday, April 14, 2015 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) It all begins at the source. If you are looking at speakers of this caliber, you must also assume the responsibility of obtaining material worthy of playback. 44.1khz/16bit minimum. Don't bother with MP3. If you listen to MP3, go down to the super center and pick up a set of Beats headphones. Those will suffice for the compressed quality and over compensation of low frequencies. These speakers deserve a quality soundtrack. A decent CD player or equivalent source; Turntables very much acceptable. When I close my eyes, these speakers disappear. Only the music is left standing and it sometimes leaves me in ecstasy. There are times I'm listening while engaged in something else, and I stop everything to look up and make sure I am still in my living room and not on stage with the composers For those who are OCD about their music room decor; I went with the midnight mahogany and they are basically black. You would need a bright light under them to notice the dark wood tone. If your room composes of a black theme, these should fit right in. Alright, I am done ranting. I came from the Polk RTI A3 and these are on another level. Be aware, they are heavy. You will need a sturdy stand. I built mine for $20 at the hardware store. MDF and 2x6 pine. Pros: Everything? Cons: Price?
Polk Audio LSi M 703 Written By Cliff, Atlanta, Georgia on Saturday, January 24, 2015 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) These are excellent bookshelf speakers. I prefer the three-way design because I find it lends a little more texture and produces cleaner mid-range compared with two-way designs. There are of course caveats to this generalization (three-way vs two-way), but I'm finding my ears prefer three-way designs. I initially purchased the Definitive Studio Monitor 65, which are also capable speakers. But, they sounded a little enclosed and constricted and lacked the presence that I find pleasing in the Polks. The analogy to that would be if somebody was talking with their mouth covered by their hand. Conversely, the Polks sound as if that hand has been removed with clear and present sound. Vocals sound great, the highs are clean defined and the bottom end is tight. I find they are very nicely balanced, have presence, and handle volume well without losing separation. Overall, a very nice soundstage that I think would likely appeal to many. My source is a Denon X4100 which seems to have a very compatable sound signature with these Polks. I realize that sound is very subjective but I hope that this at least gives you a useful frame of reference. The speakers are also aesthetically beautiful (except for the rather large metallic looking Polk badge on the front). Also, I want to give Crutchfield a plug because they really have been wonderful to deal with RE: shipping damage and/or returns if you are simply not happy. Pros: Nice spread, definition, presence Cons: I find these speakers are a little power hungry so having a capable amp is necessary to bring out the best in these speakers.
Fantastic Speakers Written By Ken, Maplewood, NJ on Friday, October 03, 2014 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) In short, the 703s are fantastic speakers, particularly so for a bookshelf design. The 703s replaced a pair of Polk RTi A3s that I have had, and enjoyed, for about three years. They are in the same room, position and used with the same equipment (dedicated music streaming PC, HRT dac, Dynaco tube amp and all AudioQuest cables, source material is a combination of 320kbps streaming and lossless iTunes with the occasional use of a FM tuner, the room is about 500 ft^2 / 4,000ft^3 and relatively 'live') Compared with the RTis, the 703s are substantially more textured, detailed and sound much larger overall despite their being only marginally larger physically - they are about twice as heavy as the RTis which seems to be a good thing. Vocals are really fantastic, a favorite of mine, and the lower registers are substantially more controlled and defied, not all that much deeper per sea, but much improved giving a greater sense of timing and rhythm. Also, the fit and finish are wonderful, very impressive. Keep in mind however that the advantage(s) of the 703s vs the RTis were more clearly apparent as the quality of the source material increased, if you were only to listen to low bit rate streaming, say Pandora, the advantage is much reduced. In sum, the RTi A3s are, on their own, a very good sounding speaker and a fantastic value. The 703's however are a truly fantastic sounding speaker if only a good value, as usual, Crutchfield was great to deal with. Pros: great sound Cons: none to date
Polk Audio LSi M 703 Written By C. A. Massa, Chaplin, CT on Monday, June 16, 2014 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) i am very pleased with my recent purchase of the Polk Audio LSi M703 Speakers. Clarity and imaging are excellent for speakers of this (or any) size. They also handle power quite well, and I especially like the "presence" of the mid-range frequencies without the need for any additional coloring or boosting of the signal. I purchased the speakers with the Dark Mahogany finish.... beautiful! They look almost black; but when light hits the cabinets at an angle, you can clearly see the red in the finish. All said, I am very happy with these speakers; I am pleasantly reminded of those boutique speaker systems found only in "Audiophile" stereo shops of the 1970's. A little pricey; but I've learned that you get what you pay for. I would recommend these speakers to a friend. Pros: Clarity; presence; separation; and construction. Cons: As said; a bit pricey.
Polk Audio LSi M 703 Written By JamesB, Redding, Ct on Tuesday, January 07, 2014 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) I really love these speakers. Right out of the box they impressed me. 29.6 pounds each, heavy and solid. The real wood vaneer is beautifully finished; like a fine pc. of furniture. An impressive freq. responce; 50- 30,000 HZ, and a 20-200 watts power range. They are running off of a NAD C165 pre amp and a NAD C275 power amp which produces very clean power. They sound full and musical at low volumes, which was important to me and they have the ability to really stand up and grow some hair. I matched them up with a Polk Audio DSW Pro 660 wi subwoofer and now the whole neighborhood is enjoying the music. Pros: Quality construction, beautifully finished. Great sound at high, medium and low volumes. (Not the case with all speakers.) Five year warranty parts and labor. Cons: None
LSiM 703 Perfect for my HT Written By BobR, Ashburn on Monday, July 01, 2013 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) I bought these to compliment my Polk 705's and 703c. The sounded is near as perfect as what my ear can detect. The re being driven by a Marantz SR7007. With that amp you match the speaker set up for distance, balance and sound quality. I would recommend these to both HT buyers and those who are just into stereo, they are per fort for both formats. Great bottom. Sub hardly needed. Pros: Build quality, great mids and bass. Very aesthetic. Cons: None really. Could be price prohibitive, but you get what you pay.
Audiophile Sound at a Fair Price Written By Anonymous, Boston, MA on Thursday, April 25, 2013 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) With the LSiM703, Polk has rediscovered their audiophile roots. Not only does it sound very good; it's also well built, its curved cabinet is attractive in its real-wood veneer, and it's available at a reasonable price for all that it offers. Pros: Superior sound quality from furniture quality cabinets. Cons: N O N E .
Polk LSiM 703 book shelf speaker Written By Leslie, Pioche, NV on Sunday, March 24, 2013 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) Fantastic speaker-----all it was billed up to be. Crisp, sharp upper mids and highs without being too bright. Trumpets snap just like being there in person. It's amazing how Polk was able to get such a small driver for the lows to get down that low, without loosing too much gain. The lows are very clean and precise, however many people will probably want to supplement the bottom end with a powered sub woofer, to give more control and gain to those frequencies 80 Hz and down. The cabinet is a work of art, but if that is really Cherry wood, I would have preferred to see some grain and personality to the wood-----it's too perfect to look real.
The Ramblings of a Happy Customer Written By J. T, South Holland, IL on Saturday, November 03, 2012 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) In a multi-speaker showroom situation an truely excellent speaker will often sound unassuming or even a bit bla. If you are smart enough to buy such speakers, you will find that the speakers fall away and only the music is left standing. These wonderful speakers do just that. I highly recommend them. Cons: None
I Really Thought They Would Be Too Small Written By Al, Lancaster, OH on Tuesday, September 18, 2012 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) I read a lot of positive reviews on the LSiM 703 but still I thought they would be too small for my room. I have them on 28" stands, 4' from the back wall, and I sit 15' from them. I use them with 200 watt mono amps and a subwoofer. I do like to turn it up and really expected to try them out and send them back to Crutchfield for something larger. These speakers not only satisfy my volume needs, but they have clarity and image like many of the the much more expensive boutique speakers. The mid-woofer, mid-range, and tweeter are identical to those found in Polk's LSiM 707 Tower Speakers. The cabinets are beautiful, the magnetic grills are cool (just pull them off), and the binding posts are high quality. I had a popular electrostatic speaker before getting the LSiM 703's, and the Polks are every bit as clear and open sounding and a whole lot easier to position in the room. I highly recommend the LSiM 703! Pros: Clear & Open Sound-Beautiful Cabinet-Easy To Place In The Room Cons: None
worth the price Written By jj, Columbia, MD on Wednesday, November 02, 2011 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) I purchased these after hearing the wonderful lsi tweeter in the blackstone tl3. They are wonderfully musical and good with cinema. They are beautiful but I couldn't figure out how to make them look right in my living room due to my furniture. I felt that I wanted to fill in the low end and move up to the 705s. I may have made a mistake 703s with the 6.5 midrange may outperform the 705s. Pros: very musical solid midrange rich sound best looking bookshelf I've seen amazing tweeter- super highs Cons: low end handicapped (bookshelf reality)

The length of time for the expiration date or "best used before" date depends on the type of product, as well as the brand.
Perishable items (such as flax oils or certain probiotics) generally have shorter expiration dates. Although our warehouse is fully air-conditioned, these more fragile items are put in cold storage (freezer or refrigeration unit) for maximum freshness.
Our receiving department does its best to verify and then enter the correct expiration dates for all incoming products. However, discrepancies do occur from time to time. This being said, the exceptionally high turnover at iHerb ensures that our inventory is among the freshest in the industry.

Shipping Weight
The Shipping Weight includes the product, protective packaging material and the actual shipping box. In addition, the Shipping Weight may be adjusted for the Dimensional Weight (e.g. length, width & height) of a package. It is important to note that certain types of products (e.g. glass containers, liquids, fragile, refrigerated or ice packed) will often require protective packaging material. As such, these products will reflect a higher Shipping Weight compared to the unprotected product.

Cane and Austin Customer Reviews
One of my favorite creams! - 11/8/2014 12:09:23 AM I actually wanted to purchase the Miracle pads a year ago when I also recieved a full sized retexurizing moisture cream as a gift with purchase. By the description, I thought that the Miracle pads would be far more effective, but just after one use I discovered that this cream is worth its weight in gold! I wake up with skin like butter! So smooth, so refreshed, and so even! It takes the redness out of my skin and makes it look and feel so much healthier. It lasted me a very long time since a pea size really is all you need because it melts into the skin. I love it, but have to wait to repurchase it since it is so expensive and I'm broke. However, it is the only cream that ever worked so well for me! I have been battling acne, sun damage, and scaring for a long time, and with this cream my face feels like a baby's butt! Amazing and no pain or reactions! It's gentle and effective!light and high protection - 10/20/2013 5:00:25 AM Like this sunscreen but it is a bit liquid-y and therefore challenging to apply. Once you figure out a technique it is great.Love This Exfoliator - 9/23/2013 1:31:43 PM This is great for those who have oily, sensitive and acne prone skin. It is also great to use for razor bumps after a wax.Awesome&unique - 4/5/2013 5:49:06 AM This is not a usual sunscreen. I have sensitive, acne-prone skin, that becomes very dry or very oily with any wrong skin care. Formula has no oils or silicones, which is something almost impossible to find in SPF products. I am pretty sure that this is the only sunscreen existing now that has higher than 30spf, no silicones, oils, and mineral filters. I dont mind mineral filters in my mineral makeup, but in creams with SPF30+ it looks awful on me because I cant apply it perfectly even and in a very thin layer like a mineral veil and usually it dries out my skin. Due to the lotion liquidity (almost a watery consistence), it requires some practice with application, can run thru your fingers if you are not quick enough. This is annoying during first applications, but then you will find your smart way of applying it. You cant have formula free of all what clog pores and still being thick. It is not a mattifying formula, provides light but sufficient moisturizing with a nice glow on a bare skin and is perfect to use under mineral powder make-up, which stays on me all days without melting. I already ordered multiple back-up and will definitely buy it again.Best Treatment Pad I've Found!!! - 8/28/2012 11:38:46 AM This is by far the best exfoliating treatment I've used! I've tried using them twice a day, but my skin stings too much. So, for me, once a day is enough. I've been using the pads for a month and a half and my skin is much smoother and my pores are smaller. I also have less black heads around my nose. I will not be without these in my skincare regimen.Awesome Product - 7/12/2012 6:08:52 AM I have been using this product for about a year and it has really cleared by skin. It is a very convenient, well packaged, easy to use product. I use it morning and night after washing my face. Kinda costly, but I usually find coupons online to save some money and cost is not an issue to me with such a well working product.a great find - 12/2/2011 6:43:06 AM I don't usually write reviews, although i frequently read them. I discovered C & A retexturing pads through a daily health & beauty email. I liked what the claims said, so i gave it a try. I am 43 with normal to dry skin. I began my treatment using it only at night for the first week. Then added the morning treatment. It only slightly tingled my skin, not enough to be uncomfortable or stop using. I did notice additional drying to my skin..but when i followed with a good moisturizer, all was good. 3 weeks in to the routine, my sister asked me if i had Botox. I laughed and said NO. A friend asked me the same thing after a 30 day period of application. I am going to keep a stock of this product and can't wait to pair it with the moisturizer they just came out with.Gentle and effective - 11/14/2011 9:59:31 PM I am finally reviewing after returning to this product and on my third bottle. I have used other glycolic products before as well as salicylic acid products for the acne on my greasy 33yr old skin and I have to admit, something about this combination of acids just works on my face and it makes putting on my make up in the mornings enjoyable. This stuff makes my skin glowy and smooth after 3 days of using (I only use it once a day at night) and it stays that way until I run out or I feel pinched by the price tag. My acne scars have faded quite a bit as well and when I combine this with my hyaluaronic acid moisturizers from my Asian beauty hauls...I get complements every time on how healthy my skin looks! I admit I have strayed from this stuff before and I cannot tell you how terrible my skin was when it returned to it's original ruddy bumpy and acne scarred texture. I wish the results were permanent but like all beauty regimens...it must be maintained. I will buy this as long as I can still afford to do so.Seems to work so far - 9/27/2011 11:29:21 AM At 62, I am having a resurgence of breakout. I have tried changing my cleanser, toner, foundation, etc. and even tried several Neutrogena acne washes and scrubs with few results. I have been using these pads for about 2 1/2 weeks and I am seeing some improvement FINALLY!!! If I do breakout, it usually goes away in a day. I was using them 2x/day but they made my face sting, so I am using once a day at night. I really haven't noticed my skin being more even-toned or less lined yet.We'll see what my skin looks like after the full month is complete. But overal, I would recommend them. The only downside is the cost. -
Learn More About Cane and Austin
Cane and Austin is dedicated to delivering top quality products that can be used at home. In the past, this type of quality glycolic peel style treatment was only available through doctors. Now everyone can enjoy better looking skin without the trip to the dermatologist.
The dermatological impacts of the aging process and of acne are some of the leading skincare issues both men and women grapple with. The Cane and Austin brand takes aim at both conditions with a revolutionary glycolic-acid-based product that's easy and straightforward to use, even as it offers a comparable approach to many expensive clinical procedures.
The innovative Cane and Austin pads are stocked with pure glycolic acid obtained from sugarcane. They're designed to exfoliate the skin, shedding the layers of dead skin cells that can degrade the complexion as well as plug up pores, encouraging acne breakouts. Cane and Austin products also draw upon such natural texture-boosting ingredients as witch hazel and green tea as well as the acne-fighting properties of salicylic acid, all combined in the brand's Acne Treatment Pads to powerful effect.
In addition to exfoliation, the Cane and Austin formulations help your skin build back its collagen reserves for a revivified complexion, and are also richly hydrating.
The brand's vision stems from decades of investigation into anti-aging and acne approaches by its founder, Dr. Craig Austin. Clinical trials have shown encouraging results, with many patients reporting more luminous, even-toned and textured, and youthful-looking skin within weeks of starting their Cane and Austin applications.
Whether you're seeking some relief from the complexion-shattering effects of pimples and blemishes, or looking to counteract some of the cosmetic advertisements of the aging process, consider the varied products of the Cane and Austin line. They make for an elegantly refined approach to firmer, smoother, more lustrous skin.

Use a Husqvarna Gator Blade on your walk behind or commercial lawn mower if you want the best mulching results you've ever seen. The high lift durable blade cuts grass into finer clippings so you can bag more or produce better grass mulch to settle in your lawn. Jack's has G3, G5, and G6 gator blades. The heavy-duty G6 is thicker and wider, resulting in a longer lasting blade. And don't forget to measure your blade to find an exact replacement size for your Husqvarna lawn mower. G3 Gator Blades:G3 blades offer faster and higher quality mulching capability than standard mulching blades. The teeth on the back of the blade redirect the grass clippings toward the cutting edge over and over again. G5 Gator Blades:G5 blades combine a higher air lift with a longer cutting edge for a greater mulching performance than the G3. These blades also stay sharper longer than standard blades. G6 Gator Blades:G6 blades are thicker and wider than the G3 and G5. This makes them more durable to cut through thick terrain. For heavy-duty mulching, consider using a G6 gator blade to get the job done right.
