Discover how to get the most out of your iPhone or iPod touch, from making calls, browsing the web, managing your time, and getting around town to taking notes, shooting photos, and listening to music. In this course, author Garrick Chow shows how to perform all of these tasks and more, and introduces the enhancements built into iOS 6, including enhanced language support and commands for Siri, shared photo streams, and the new Reply with Message feature for handling incoming calls. The course also includes hands-on demonstrations on how to accurately type and efficiently use finger gestures, and offers tips for personalizing the setup of the iPhone and iPod touch. An extensive section on troubleshooting helps when the occasional glitch happen.
When it comes to syncing the data between your IOS device and your computer, you have the choice of doing so by connecting your device to your Mac or PC with the included USB cable, or you can do so wirelessly, as long as your device and your computer are on the same wireless network. But in order to sync wirelessly, you need to setup your device first by connecting one end of the included USB cable into the device and the other end into your computer. If iTunes isn't currently open, it may open once your iPhone or iPod touch is detected, but that depends on a setting we will look at shortly. If iTunes doesn't open, go ahead and open it manually yourself.
When you first connect an iPhone or iPod touch to your computer, you may have to go through a series of screens where you are asked to agree to a licensing agreement or to register your iPod. Go ahead and do that on your own and eventually you will be back in your main iTunes window and your device should show up under Devices in the source pane. As you can see, I currently have my iPhone plugged into my Mac its just showing up under Devices here in the source pane of iTunes. The first thing you should see when you select your device in the source pane is that the main part of the iTunes window is organized into a series of tabs with the Summary tab selected.
Under Summary, you can find your device's vitals like its Name, Capacity, Software Version and Serial Number. Incidentally if you want to change the name of your device, just click it in the source pane and type a new name. This might be helpful if you have more than one of the same iPod in the house and you want to make sure your name is associated with yours. Under the Version section, you'll either see a message telling you that your iPod or iPhone software is up-to-date or a message that a newer version of the iPod software is available. Apple is constantly releasing updates to its iPods; sometimes fixing bugs, other times adding major new features. Generally, it's a good idea to update to the latest version of the software when it becomes available.
Just click the Update button that appears to download and install the software. Or in this case, I can click Check for Updates, to have iTunes check for new software. And I can see I'm running the current version. This is also where you'll find a button to restore your iPod touch or iPhone. There may come a time when your device is just acting plain weird. Maybe it's not booting up right or it is locked up. Now there are various fixes and solutions you can find on Apple's website and we'll talk more about this in the Chapter on Troubleshooting. But as a last resort, you can click the Restore button to return the iPod to its factory-new condition.
I say it is the last resort, because restoring iPhone or iPod completely erases it and installs a fresh copy of the software on it, so you will lose all the items stored on it. If you backup your phone or iPod regularly, which again, we'll talk about how to do in the Troubleshooting Chapter, you should have copies of everything on iTunes anyway. But it takes time to recopy everything back to your device, so use the Restore button as a last measure. Next, we have the Backup section. This includes an option to back up the iCloud, which I'll talk about in its own movie near the end of this chapter. Now under the Options section we have several options or checkboxes.
You can see that I have Open iTunes when this iPhone is connected checked, and I think that's pretty self-explanatory. With this option checked, iTunes will open whenever you connect your iPhone to your computer. Next we have Sync with this iPhone over Wi-Fi. This is the checkbox you want to check if you want the ability to sync your device with iTunes without connecting it with a USB cable. I will cover this option in its own movie at the end of this chapter. Next we have Sync only checked songs and videos. With this option checked, iTunes won't include any unchecked files when it copies files to your iPod. That's referring to the checkboxes that appear next your files in your library.
So I go into my Music Library here, you can see all of my files are currently checked. But if there are certain songs I don't want copied over to my device, I can just uncheck them. The next two options are useful for saving space on your device. If you check Prefer standard-definition videos and you have two versions of the same video in iTunes, one-standard definition and one high-definition, the standard-definition video will be copied over to your device by default. The option to Convert a higher bit rate songs to, in this case 128 kbps AAC, allows iTunes to automatically convert larger song files into smaller song files before copying them to your device.
The next option is Manually manage music and videos. This is the option that lets you to manually drag songs and videos to your iPod or iPhone, rather than letting iTunes move files automatically for you. Now the question often comes up here as to which option is better, manual updating or automatic syncing? And it really depends on whether you prefer the control of manually managing your iPod or if you prefer to setup some rules and playlists to determine what gets copied to your iPod. We'll look at the syncing options in just a moment, but for now I am going to leave this unchecked. So, those are the items and options you will find into the Summary tab when you connect your iPhone iPod touch.
In the rest of this chapter, we will work our way through the rest of the tabs and see how to manage the contents of your iPhone or iPod touch.

Cookie Monster: Whole Wheat Sables with Za'atar
French butter cookies (sables) are topped with the Middle Eastern spice blend za'atar for a savory-sweet snack that would be great as an hors d'oeuvre with wine. More

Want to bake with more whole wheat flour this year? This collection of recipes is a great start. More
These easy whole wheat rolls are soft on the inside with a lightly crisp crust. Pair them with honey butter and sprinkling of fleur de sel for a real breakfast treat. More
Taking a cue from the popular English biscuit brand McVities, these whole wheat digestive biscuits are covered on one side by dark chocolate. More
Just because these rye muffins are a pretty healthy way to start your day doesn't mean they aren't delicious. They have a soft crumb and a warm, toasted oat flavor accented by molasses and raisins. More
This extra hearty whole wheat bread is full of apricots and walnuts. It makes a great breakfast or snack topped with some sharp cheese and, if you're up for it, washed down by a hoppy beer. More
Whole wheat has a not-so-great reputation in the world of desserts and snacks. But we're all for adding a few extra nutrients here and there, especially if the sweets taste just as great as their white-flour counterparts. But don't take our word for it. Just try any of these 12 sweets from the S.E community! More
Italians will eat this egg-free cake during Lent. I went farther, swapping in earthy whole wheat flour and and taking out the nuts. The dough is spiced with cinnamon, nutmeg, and black pepper. The overall flavor is a nutty, slightly spicy cake with a bright burst of orange. More

Which type of boiler do I need?
How do I decide which type of boiler best suits my needs?
There are 3 different types of boiler:
- Combi boiler (or 'combination' boiler)
- Regular boiler (often also referred to as a 'traditional' or 'conventional' boiler)
- System boiler
Combi boilers provide heating and hot water directly from the boiler.
Regular and system boilers heat your central heating system directly and produce hot water for your cylinder.
|Most suitable boiler
|You want to use your loft space for a room conversion or other purpose
|Combi boiler
|You live in a flat or bungalow (i.e. have very little or no roof space)
|Combi boiler
|Your home has more than 2 bathrooms
|Regular or system boiler
|Your main water pressure is low
|Regular or system boiler
|You want to replace an old boiler to improve an existing conventional central heating system
|Regular, system or combi boiler
|You need to have hot water available on tap without waiting for it to heat up.
|Combi boiler
Which boiler you need will depend on several factors, including your property and lifestyle. It will also depend on the professional advice of a Gas Safe Register installer for gas boilers, or, an OFTEC registered installer for oil-fired boilers.
Ask a boiler installer
Find out which is the best new boiler for you by asking your local Worcester Accredited Installer.
Worcester Accredited Installers specialise in Worcester central heating boilers, can offer advice on installation prices and most can offer extended guarantees.
Please remember to discuss the following with your local installer or engineer when they visit your home:
- Have your heating and hot water needs changed since your current boiler was fitted i.e. are there more or fewer residents using the hot water? Have you added an extension or a loft conversion?
- We recommend system flushing and treatment to ensure your heating system efficiency over time - ask for more details.
- How the different controls options can give you an even more efficient heating system and save energy and money.
- What is the impact of having a new shower installed - will it work off the existing hot water system or is it electrically powered?
- How can solar water heating or heap pump technology benefit your efficiency and carbon footprint?
- What funding schemes are available i.e. Green Deal, Eco, Renewable Heat Incentive.
Boiler search
Our Find a Boiler search suggests the best boiler for your home.

The Bachelor
Arie Luyendyk Jr.'s Bachelor Blog: Robyn Was Brave to Ask Sean About Race
Arie Luyendyk, Jr. is Bachelor Sean Lowe's BFFL. And, as such, it's his job to tell us EVERYTHING WE WANT TO KNOW. So, we are so glad that we're not watching this season alone — rather, we have the glory that is Arie's Hollywood.com blog to follow along with the can't miss moments and deep smoldering, um, insights.
For one, do you remember that potentially super-awkward moment in Episode 2 when Robyn Howard pulled Sean aside to ask him straight up if he liked black girls? We knew he dated a black cheerleader in the past, but apparently no one else did, because we could feel Bachelor Nation holding its collective breath.
Still, we were impressed with her moxie and need for truth. "That was an important conversation for her to have," Arie says. "Sean's response was really comforting to her." It's a hard enough environment to be in when you have to compete for love against a bunch of other attractive women — knowing the target actually likes you for you is very important. In the best moment of his season so far, Sean told Robyn that he has dated a myriad of races and cares only about a woman's personality and heart. Swoon.
It's true that this season has the most diverse contestant pool of all time, but it's not the first time a person of color has been on the show. "There was a similar situation on Emily's season with Alejandro asking about Emily dating a Latino," Arie says. "He was very uncomfortable the whole time because he never really brought it up. So I'm happy that Robyn did. She was brave enough to ask the hard question, and Sean handled that very well."

Below is the poem entitled Brother and Sister which was written by poet
Siejka. Please feel free to comment on this poem. However, please remember, PoetrySoup is a place of encouragement and growth.
Read Poems by
Edmund Siejka
Susan sits by an open window
Remembering her brother
It was during the sixties when it happened
The exact date was May 8, 1966
They called the Sixties liberating
A time when America accepted change
But it wasn't like that for everyone
Her brother Stevie
Was two years younger than she was
The guys in school used to call him names
Like sissy boy and queer
Saying if he got into trouble his sister would have to stick up for him.
But Stevie was better
Way better than the bullies at school.
At home Susan and her brother
Would move the living room coffee table
Push the old couch back
And then sing the old favorites
In close harmony
Songs about teenage love
Like the sad love ballads by the Everly Brothers
Or the Righteous Brothers
The sadder the love song
The more they liked it
They would stand together
Moving ever so slowly
And sing those songs so loud
And so close
To each other's face
Over and over
And then Stevie would whistle the ending
While their parents
Clapped and clapped
And clapped.
Then one late afternoon
When Stevie didn't come home from school
The phone rang and rang
With a strange incessant kind of ringing
That jarred their mother
It was someone from the school saying
That horseplay got out of hand
Then the police came
A man in a suit spoke to father in the kitchen
Whispering over the clouds of cigarette smoke
Susan could barely hear his hoarse whisper
Only things like "We're going to investigate this"
And "I promise I'll do what I can"
Her family never did find out what happened to the investigation.
Along the way
Away from home
Something peculiar happened to Susan
She lost something of herself
And would sit
Staring out of the window
Not seeing anything
Just thinking of her brother.
She still does it today
Just staring
Out to nowhere
Every time she hears one of those old songs
She feels that Stevie is still with her.
Forgiveness is a long word
For what happened a long time ago
All Susan has are memories
If she could just absorb them
And put them in a little bottle
And carry them around
So whenever she started feeling down
She'd open the bottle
And all those good memories
Would remind her just how special life is
And Stevie would still be there
Their bodies entwined
Singing harmony
She holding the last note
He snapping his fingers
Whistling the last sad tune.

Top reads for this week from Topping and Company booksellers in Bath
Posted: January 11, 2014|
Topping & Company Booksellers give their pick of the top books of the week:
Sleeping With Dogs
Brian Sewell
The acerbic Brian Sewell shows his tender side in an autobiography that recounts the dogs he has made part of his family and that have always enriched his life. A beautiful little book that captures all of the joy and sadness of sharing your life with dogs. It brought tears to my eyes on several occasions, and I'm the toughest guy around.
The Rosie Project
Graeme Simsion
One of the books flying off the shelves at the moment is this laugh-out-loud romantic comedy about Don Tilman, a thirty-nine year old geneticist who's never had a second date...so he devises The Wife Project, a scientific project to find the perfect partner. Poignant, funny and life-affirming.
Fast Exercise
Dr Michael Mosley
with Peta Bee
Fast Exercise is for all those aficionados of the brilliantly effective 5:2 eating plan and is the companion book that will help you get fitter, stronger and better toned in just a few minutes a day. The secret to a hot body in just minutes, it works wonders!
Jo Baker
Pride & Prejudice: The Servants' Story, Jo Baker's bestselling 'below the stairs' picture of the Bennet Family is an intoxicating love story and an utterly compelling tale of poverty, injustice and loyalty. Fresh, gripping and original, this is a must for all lovers of fiction - especially those Downton Abbey and Austen fans.
Spinning Heart
Donal Ryan
The Spinning Heart is a portrait of a small Irish community ravaged by financial collapse. Seen through the eyes of a fascinating, diverse and perfectly drawn cast of characters, it centres around the emotions and speculations that spiral from a murder at the heart of the community. Though deeply sad at times, it is also funny in the way only minutely observed fiction can be.
Brunot Loubet
Mange Tout
The charismatic Bordeaux-born Loubet gives us an eclectic collection of recipes inspired by his travels across the globe. He emphasises a lighter style of classic French bistro, with a nod to health and Asian influences. Catch him at the bookshop on Wednesday 29th January at 8pm – see www.toppingbooks.co.uk/events/bath/ for details.

St. Stephen Elementary School students and staff would like to give a big thank you to the members of the Santee Circle Community Church for remembering them during this cold winter.
The members of the church got together and donated some much-needed coats for some of the boys and girls. The donation of coats came at a great time especially with the temperature outside being cold lately.
Although the holiday season has already passed the boys and girls were very appreciative of the gifts given to them by the Rev. Chris Williams and his congregation.

Ordered it today, tried the whole wheat pizza for the first time. It was pricey and thought it wasn't that great. Also, if you like thick slices order from here.

I have grown up going to Pizza Park for the last 30 years. It's a home away from home. Many of the workers, I have known for years. The slices are amazing and they have whole wheat pizza crust with all different toppings. They will also accomodate you with whatever toppings you want. I love this place. Of all the pizza places in NYC, this is THE place to go to...

This place serves great pizza after a night on the town. I have lived on the UES for 6 years and this place is by far the best place for a late night slice. The staff is always friendly and eager to please. As a college student who lives on a pizza diet, brought up with new haven style pizza this pizza joint is a must try!

I can't wait to spend valentines day at pizza park! Best whole wheat pizza everrrr...

Yum! Best Pizza for Delivery on the UES. The heros and back ziti are also spectacular.

The whole wheat crust is *better* than the white crust which is excellent. The pastas are first rate. But they drop the ball on delivery - half the time you dont' get all that you ordered. (And they promise on the phone that you have a credit there next time, but when you bring it up they never give it to you) Still, it is my favorite slice in the city and it's open late. I feel so lucky that it's so close!

Music Together of NapervilleRead MoreThe only thing more fun than watching babies and toddlers make music is being the baby or toddler making music (unless you're riding a roller coaster). Plunge head-first into melodies with today's Groupon: for $15, you get a two-week sing-along session for a child and parent at Music Together of Naperville ($30 Value). There are locations in Aurora, Naperville, and Plainfield. Children between the ages of birth and 6 can participate in these classes.23913 West Lockport StreetPlainfield, IL US
Chicago's #1 Drum LessonsRead MoreMike Semerau and the instructors at Chicago's #1 Drum Lessons have a trick up their sleeve. In addition to in-person tutelage, they provide professional pre-recorded take-home videos of proper drumming techniques for students to refer to while practicing. This kind of constant visualization and repetitive watching is what the instructors claim makes their students so successful as they drill new techniques such as double bass, ostinatos, and stick control. During lessons, teachers also cover subjects such as soloing, learning a student's favorite song, creating original beats and fills, and teaching yourself. Chicago's #1 Drum Lessons has a play-along machine stacked with more than 1,000 songs, all of which have no drum track so that students can provide their own percussion and experience the sensation of playing and keeping time with other instruments.329 Plainview Dr.Bolingbrook, IL US
School of RockRead MoreToday, the School of Rock franchise has branched out to more than 100 locations throughout the United States, Mexico, and Brazil with recent openings in Canada, The Philippines, Chile, United Kingdom, and Australia. During the school's music lessons, encouraging instructors well versed in methods of rocking and rolling teach guitar, bass, vocals, keyboards, and drums to students of all skill levels. Believing that the best way to learn music is to play music, School of Rock gets students playing music as quickly as possible. This immersive, performance-based teaching method inspires students to do their best. School of Rock's Rock 101 program acquaints all students—beginners and experienced musicians alike—with the instrument of their choice using a curriculum of weekly private lessons and group band rehearsals which prepares students for live performances.9613 194th Pl.Mokena, IL US
Gymboree Play and Music CenterRead MoreIn 1976, busy California mother Joan Barnes wanted nothing more than to find a play place where she and her kids could enjoy age-appropriate, educational activities. Finding none, she developed her own innovative play environment within a developmental-based program structure now known as Gymboree Play & Music. Today, kids tumble and learn in more than 650 locations in 33 countries around the world, engaging in open play and classes designed to build cognitive and motor skills. As parents participate in their children's development, their kids learn to paint, play music, and interact socially outside of their preschool knitting circles.9289 159th StreetOrland Hills, IL US
Red Dove MediaRead MoreAt The Talent Pros, a multitalented staff of veteran video producers, Grammy nominees, and visual artists combine their talents to offer a wide range of creative services.
