How Hard Could Syncing Calendars and Contacts Be?
Posted by Bob Warfield on September 10, 2008
Pretty hard, I guess.
Recently I wanted to sync up my calendar and contact info between my home and work instances of Outlook. In fact, I was slightly more ambitious. I thought this could be a good stepping stone towards moving off Outlook altogether if I could get everything sync'd to appropriate Internet cloud applications. Little did I know!
I started with Google Calendar Sync, because, "Hey, it's Google!" I did this leg at work and it appeared to be perfect that first time. I got home installed it on the home PC, and low and behold about 60% of the appointments didn't go through. Doh! I could see them get created and then almost immediately deleted. It seemed like the more complex an appointment was (e.g. recurring, with a long note attached, with attendees, or whatever), the more likely it wouldn't come through.
I tried all the troubleshooting suggestions and then went into Google Groups to see if their community had anything going. What a mess! Lots of people just blasting out their problem. Most of them didn't seem to be getting any response. Very little rhyme or reason. I must've found 5 or 6 recent posts with the same problem as me. None of them had any answers. Clearly it was a common problem. Does everything at Google get done in people's 20% time? I can't imagine shipping a bug like this and just leaving it.
To make matters worse, Google syncs the calendar, but not the contacts, even though Gmail has contacts. You'll need another solution for that. I reluctantly exported the Outlook and was resigning myself to exclusively using GMail for contacts. At least iTunes synced the contacts from Google perfectly. This is a blessing because there are a very limited number of places the iPhone could sync to with iTunes on my PC. Guess I shoulda bought a Mac, eh?
When I got back in to work and found even my work Google Calendar Sync could no longer do the right thing, I uninstalled and went looking for the next thing. I also resolved that if I couldn't use Google Calendar, I didn't particularly want to leave my Contacts in GMail either. I prefer one-stop shopping for these simple chores.
I got the bright idea that since I was syncing two Outlooks perhaps I should look at Microsoft Live. If anyone could sync two Outlooks, it ought to be Microsoft, right? Wrong!
Microsoft delivered this steaming mug of Fail:
Excellent! The only thing worse than unreliable desktop software is unreliable cloud software. I tried both in the morning and this evening as I write this. No joy!
Onward, there are many more syncing options to try. I downloaded two other programs from small startups. One didn't work at all. One sort of worked. I only synced for 3 days (nice to have the option not to do it all) and it appeared to duplicate appointments the first time. I tried again and there were no more duplicates. This was kind of okay, but I worried about the dupes and they were going to charge me about $30.
There was a sojourn through Yahoo Mail and Zimbra, because a co-worker used Yahoo and pointed out iPhone could sync to it and because I've always admired the Zimbra apps. But somehow, it just didn't seem easy, so I didn't even finish trying out Yahoo. Plus, you never know where that crazy company will wind up these days.
"Let's try one more," sez I. So I tried Plaxo because I read somewhere that it works pretty well for this. Low and behold, it worked perfectly, both at home and at work. My Outlook calendars and contacts are perfectly synced now. I can view them online in Plaxo if need be. I'm a little uneasy that this isn't really what Plaxo is meant for (I see it more as a LinkedIn competitor), but what the heck, it works!
Now why couldn't all these others get their stuff to work? This shouldn't be that hard. My very first stop, Google, should have worked, worked well, and handled contacts. I should never have even needed to try all the rest.
And what does this say if I do want to abandon Outlook altogether? Some would say it makes it easier just not to worry about sync, but I need to take my data with me when I drop of Outlook at the wrecking yard so that won't work. Oh well, onward. Today's primary problem, syncing, is taken care of. Tomorrow I'll worry about web apps. It's no wonder Microsoft still sells a ton of Office!

KEVIN RUDD'S RUSE has been exposed; to fund a switch from a carbon tax to an ETS — the supposed flagship of Labor's environmental platform — his government will junk annual spending of $1.4 billion on other environmental programs. And lob a grenade at car makers. It stinks of policy on the run.
A lot of mileage has been made today (and not least by Kevin Rudd and his new Treasurer, Chris Bowen) out of modest promised savings for households arising from his decision to "terminate" the carbon tax.
This decision — made to distance Labor from Julia Gillard's Prime Ministership, and to try to wrongfoot the Liberals — was never going to be as harmless as it was made to sound, and in finally being forced to spell out concrete details the Kevin Rudd who was Prime Minister until 2010 has made a dramatic reappearance.
Measures to cut $1.8 billion out of fringe benefits tax concessions for those who drive company vehicles — on the spurious pretext personal use of such vehicles is higher than historical estimates have projected — will throw an incendiary device into the remaining automotive manufacturing industry in Australia: a sector already facing abandonment.
With a third of all new vehicles in Australia purchased by fleet management companies, but 80% of all Australian-built cars finding their way into commercial fleets, it's obvious that this measure to effectively increase the expenses of fleet managers will have knock-on effects to the manufacturers, and could be the final straw for the struggling Holden.
But the most audacious aspect of Rudd's pledge to fund his ETS stunt from budget savings is where the rest of the money is coming from: axing a raft of environmental programs.
These savings include
- Cutting the Energy Security Fund — aimed at assisting electricity generators in adapting to carbon pricing — by $770 million over four years;
- Cutting "clean technology" programs by $586 million over four years;
- Cutting aid to the coal sector — to assist with its adjustment to a "clean energy future" — by $186 million;
- Cutting the Biodiversity Fund by $213 million;
- Cutting carbon farming measures by $144 million.
Apparently, a nominal amount will be saved by cutting the size of the upper echelons of the Commonwealth Public Service and is earmarked to be added to savings made for the ETS, but at the end of the day — given Labor's addiction to stacking bureaucracies with stooges, then crying foul when Liberal governments sack them — "nominal" is the key word.
It should be emphasised that all of this "saved" money isn't being ploughed back into environmental spending, as Rudd and Bowen might hope to give the impression of; it's being cut — the programs eliminated — to pay for Rudd's populist gesture in "terminating" the carbon tax, to ensure the mismanaged budget Labor has presided over doesn't blow out even further into deficit.
In other words, $1.4 billion per year, over four years, slashed from the environment budget.
There goes Labor's credibility on environment policy at a stroke.
Tellingly, the Clean Energy Finance Corporation — a $10 billion "investment" fund that is in reality little more than a pork barrel — is untouched.
But for the most part, the worst aspect of these machinations lies in their deception.
Rudd has at least been honest enough to say — loudly — that he is pulling forward by one year a change that would have occurred under Gillard's so-called Clean Energy regime anyway.
But far from shovelling cash at voters, he's simply throwing a crumb: by linking a floating carbon price in Australia to that traded on European carbon markets, this fraud will only save households money for as long as the European price remains at $6 per tonne, as opposed to the $25 per tonne that the change temporarily abandons.
There are forces in Europe — governments, lobbyists, interest groups et al — not only committed to driving that price up, but determined to do so, and to levels far higher than the $25 per tonne that has already begun to impact consumers in Australia.
When that happens, the handful of dollars Rudd is trying to bribe people with here, in a cynical and grubby charade, will quickly be replaced with hip pocket pain far worse than anyone has had cause to grumble about to date.
And all that money sliced out of spending on the environment? Well, that will still be gone, which should give pause for thought to anyone silly enough to consider voting for Labor on the basis of its environmental policies.
Tony Abbott is right: Rudd isn't "the terminator" in his claim to have banished the carbon tax, he is the exaggerator; and far from being a "terminator," he is simply a fabricator.
And speaking of fabrication, this policy was cooked up overnight, with no consultation, no consideration of its impact and, in fact, no tangible evidence of consideration of anything other than its capacity to generate votes in the very short term.
It brings back all the worst aspects of Rudd's first stint as Prime Minister: the shambolic approach to government, the last-minute policy and the half-baked decision, all conspiring to produce shocking policy outcomes that address an immediate political imperative, yes, but leave a trail of chaos in their wake and a host of other problems for someone else to fix.
This time — in the pursuit of votes — Rudd has jeopardised an entire manufacturing industry, trashed his party's credibility in a key area of policy, and offered voters a short-term honey pot to sip from with one hell of a sting waiting when they reach the bottom.
I actually think it's rather sad. This is the man whom polls show the public has clamoured to see restored to the Prime Ministership, and in his first major announcement all he has to offer is a sellout.
Clearly, nothing has changed in three years.
And once again, Kevin has been just a bit too clever by half.

EU to create new human rights envoy
By Benjamin Fox
The EU will beef up its foreign affairs team within weeks by hiring a Special Representative for Human Rights (EUSR), according to EU foreign affairs chief Catherine Ashton.
Ashton spoke on Tuesday (12 June) in the European Parliament in response to a recommendation by MEPs on the foreign affairs committee to create the post.

The envoy is to represent the EU in international discussions and be expected to engage with the UN, to chair high-level human rights dialogues and to lead consultations with third countries on human rights issues, the committee says.
The post is to be created by EU foreign ministers on 25 June as part of a wholescale "human rights review."
MEPs have been calling for an EU post focusing on human rights since 2010. They also want the nominee to appear at a hearing of the foreign affairs committee before taking up office.
The EUSR would report to Ashton and work closely with her service on the model of existing EUSRs for conflict hotpsots, such as Afghanistan or Kosovo, or issues such as the Middle East peace process and Arab Spring fall out.
Parliament on Wednesday endorsed Spanish centre-right MEP Jose Salafranca's blueprint for the job.
It says the new envoy should have "a strong, independent and flexible mandate" which should "reflect EU human rights policy and cover areas that include strengthening democracy, international justice, humanitarian law, abolition of the death penalty, freedom of expression, gender issues and children and armed conflict."
They will be appointed for an initial two and a half year term, renewable once.
Ashton on Tuesday paid "credit to parliament for championing this idea" and said it now commands "broad consensus across the political spectrum."
"I am looking for somebody with an established track record, real experience in human rights and strong understanding of European Union policy," she said.
Some MEPs expressed concern about the cost of the envoy, however. The European Commission still has to produce information on the new official's precise tasks and size of the secretariat that will be available to them.

An infection that killed three babies at a hospital has been traced to taps in its neo-natal unit.
All the taps and connected pipes in the room at the Royal Jubilee Maternity Hospital, Belfast, are being removed as experts try to eradicate all traces of the pseudomonas bacteria, said the Northern Ireland Health Minister, Edwin Poots. Another baby is being treated after showing signs of the infection.
A different pseudomonas strain, which claimed the life of an infant at Altnagelvin Hospital in Londonderry last month, was also linked to the water system in its neo-natal unit. Mr Poots said special ultraviolet technology may be installed in hospitals to try to prevent further outbreaks.

TV executives only have to wait 24 hours to discover how their programmes rated. But if you work for a local or national radio station, you have to wait up to three months.
The quarterly annual Rajar figures are as exhausting as they are exhaustive - from tiny local broadcasters with a potential audience of just 28,000 (Quaywest FM - we're talking about you) to the mother of all national radio broadcasters, Radio 2.
For this very reason it is impossible to give every station their 15 minutes of fame on Rajar day.
But Organ Grinder wants to put that right. If you are particularly proud of your station's performance over the last 12 months, then here is your platform to tell everyone about it.
Increase average listenership per head by 6.2 per cent? Best ever reach since the second quarter, 2004? Or maybe you just want to tell us how you rated. Dedications to your favourite DJ or presenter also welcome. But if you're a PR - please, keep the puffery to a minimum!

Clemson QB Tajh Boyd leaves Georgia Tech game with injury
CLEMSON, S.C. (AP) -- Clemson quarterback Tajh Boyd hurt his left collarbone on the final play of the third quarter and headed to the locker room in the eighth-ranked Tigers' game with Georgia Tech on Thursday night.
After scrambling for 7 yards as the quarter wound down, Boyd remained on the turf as trainers hurried to his side. Boyd got up on his own power and trotted to the sideline. Moments later, though, he walked to the locker room at Death Valley.
Boyd had completed 20 of 26 passes for 340 yards and four touchdowns. The senior also ran for 43 yards and a touchdown. The Tigers led 41-24 when Boyd left the field.

Of all the Manchester, England-based bands to emerge in the late 80s, the Charlatans rise was undoubtedly the swiftest and their continuing career proves it was no fluke. Originally formed in 1988 by Baz Ketley (vocals/guitar), Martin Blunt (21 May 1964, England; bass, ex-Makin Time, the Gift Horses), Jon Brookes (b. 21 September 1968, England; drums) and Rob Collins (b. 12 June 1965, Sedgley, Staffordshire, England, d. 22 July 1996, Wales; keyboards), the quartet recorded a number of demos before parting company with Ketley. Tim Burgess (b. Timothy Allan Burgess, 30 May 1967, Salford, Lancashire, England; vocals, ex-Electric Crayons) and John Baker (guitar) were subsequently added to the line-up. The new look quintet fused 60s melodies, Hammond organ riffs and a generally loose feel that was instantly adopted by those taken with the Stone Roses and the Happy Mondays. The bands stage presentation was boosted by the recruitment of veteran...

Intra-abdominal "Reservoir" in patients with permanent ileostomy
- Cite this article as:

Preliminary experience with a new type of ileostomy provided with an intraperitoneal reservoir is presented.
By splitting the distal part of the ileum at its antimesenteric border and folding the split intestine twice, a bladder-like container is formed by suturing the edges of the intestine. In this type of reservoir the motor activity in the different parts of the intestine counteract each other and no pressure waves appear on filling the reservoir. The outlet of the reservoir passes obliquely through the rectus muscle which closes the outlet so that no involuntary flow through the ileostomy is possible, either during rest or during coughing or straining. The capacity of the reservoir is between 300 and 600 ml, depending on the length of intestine used for the construction of the reservoir.
To date, five patients have been provided with this type of ileostomy after panproctocolectomy for ulcerative colitis, and the results obtained from these patients are very encouraging. The patients empty their reservoir one to four times every 24 hours by inserting a plastic tube through the ileostomy. There is no involuntary flow of intestinal content through the ileostomy.

World's most unique photo or video set is now available - a perfect recreation of RMS TITANIC
Professional photographers, videographers and filmmakers can now use the world's most authentic recreation of the Titanic as a set or backdrop. The Titanic is owned by longtime entertainment industry professionals John Joslyn and Mary Kellogg.
The Titanic Museum Attraction was built according to the actual blueprints for the Titanic from Harland & Wolff, the engineering company that built RMS Titanic a century ago. Inside, the museum features 100-percent, full-size, exact recreations of third class cabins, third-class hallways, the Captain's bridge, the promenade deck, first class suites, and – the centerpiece of the museum – the Titanic's amazing Grand Staircase (which alone cost well over $1 million to create). All areas of the one-of-a-kind museum are available for professional photo and video shoots through Cedar Bay Entertainment.
Joslyn had a long stint in TV before opening the Titanic Museum Attraction. Joslyn is best known as the executive producer of more than a dozen high-profile television documentaries and specials including "The Mystery of Al Capone's Vault" with Geraldo Rivera and the series of documentaries that gave the world its first look at the Titanic two and a half miles beneath the surface of the Atlantic. He was a network executive with NBC in Chicago and CBS in Los Angeles before forming his own production company, Westgate Entertainment Corp., in 1980. John Joslyn later worked for Universal Pictures.
"The Mystery of Al Capone's Vaults" (1986) and "Return to the Titanic LIVE" (1987) – both produced by John Joslyn – are two of the highest-rated syndicated television specials of all-time. The shows were viewed by a combined 50 million U.S. households.
Kellogg has an extensive background in entertainment, marketing and production having served as Executive Vice President Television for The Walt Disney Company for 20 years. During this period, she worked directly with Disney CEO, Michael Eisner and Studio Chairman Jeffrey Katzenberg, contributing to their successful effort to revitalize the Walt Disney Company with creative energy and evolutionary concepts. In her operations capacity, she worked closely with Don Ohlmeyer, former President of NBC's West Coast Division, in overseeing production of Disney LIVE Event Specials.
As an executive director in both marketing and programming at CBS, Inc. for 10 years, Kellogg Joslyn negotiated exclusive sports packages with Los Angeles Rams owner, Georgia Frontiere; entertainment packages with King World, Paramount Television and with legendary movie/TV director and producer John Landis. She shared multiple Emmy honors during her tenures at both Disney and CBS.
At Disney, Kellogg was responsible for bringing to television the highly successful "Live with Regis and (Kathie Lee) Kelly" show for twenty years and served as the executive-in-
Joslyn and Kellogg combined their unique entertainment backgrounds to bring the Titanic to life through the Titanic Museum Attraction.
The new Titanic Museum Attraction in Pigeon Forge, Tenn. has been open for just two months and already more than 135,000 "passengers"
The Titanic Museum Attraction opened in April with a star-studded weekend-long Grand Opening hosted by Regis Philbin. The event also featured numerous descendants and family members of those on board the Titanic and included a christening of the ship by Captain Edward J. Smith.
Titanic Museum Attraction is a half-scale, permanent, three-deck recreation of the Titanic. The museum houses 20 galleries to display nearly 400 authentic, priceless Titanic artifacts that were either carried from the ship and into lifeboats by passengers and crew, or were found afloat soon after the sinking and quickly salvaged by rescue boats.
Inside the Titanic Museum Attraction, visitors find full-size recreations (built to actual Titanic blueprints) of Third-Class quarters, a First-Class suite, dining rooms and – the museum's centerpiece – a $1 million exact reproduction of the Titanic's Grand Staircase. The First-Class suite in the Titanic Museum Attraction, which is dedicated to Isidor and Ida Straus who co-owned Macy's Department Stores, was also the cabin used in James Cameron's blockbuster movie Titanic as Rose's suite.
"What we have created is special in so many ways," said John Joslyn, co-owner of the Titanic Museum Attraction. "It is truly a museum – with hundreds of priceless artifacts from the Titanic, but it is also an overall experience for our guests. They get to talk to crew members and maids who know the detailed story of the ship and her passengers. Visitors are able to touch an iceberg and feel the 28-degree water exactly as it was on that fateful night.
"While you're visiting the Titanic Museum Attraction, you truly become a passenger on board the Titanic. It's a complete experience that honors and respects the ship and its passengers by keeping their stories alive. It's a one-of-a-kind place that you have to experience to fully understand."
In addition to being a world class museum in the truest sense of the word, Titanic Museum Attraction is also highly interactive and offers a hands-on experience for children, teenagers and adults. The ship is anchored in water to create the illusion of Titanic at sea, and a two-hour self-guided tour gives guests the sensation of sailing on the original ship's 1912 maiden voyage. Upon entry, each guest receives a boarding pass bearing the name of an actual Titanic passenger or crew member whose fate is revealed on the Memorial Wall at tour end. Along the way, powerful emotions surface as guests:
• Walk Titanic's Grand Staircase
• Touch the frozen surface of an "iceberg"
• Feel the chill of that fateful "Starry Night"
• Study some of the largest, most detailed Titanic models ever built
• Grip the ship's wheel and follow the Captain's commands
• Tour world-class galleries and the rare historical artifacts they hold
• Sit in a Titanic lifeboat and listen to actual survivors tell their stories
• Send an SOS from the Marconi Wireless Room
• Test their balance while standing on mini-decks built to show the ever-steeper slope of Titanic as she sank
• Watch children eight years and younger explore the special interactive Tot-Titanic Play-and-Learn Room
• Dive to Titanic's wreck site via spectacular underwater camera footage
The Titanic Museum Attraction – which is conveniently located to all areas of the Great Smoky Mountains National Park, Gatlinburg, Pigeon Forge and Sevierville – is now open every day beginning at 9 a.m. ET. Tickets are available online at www.TitanicPigeonForge.com and visitors are strongly urged to purchase tickets in advance or make reservations by calling 1-800-381-7670.
Cedar Bay Entertainment, which owns and operates Titanic Museum Attraction, is a privately owned entertainment and development company headquartered in Branson, Missouri, the site of Cedar Bay's first Titanic Museum Attraction. Since its April 2006 grand opening, it has welcomed more than 2,200,000 guests.

Two new studies published last week by the British Medical Journal suggest that taking newer, fourth generation birth control pills may bring a higher risk of blood clots than previous pills. These newer pills, sold under the brand names Yaz or Yasmin, contain drospirenone, a new type of progestogen hormone associated with two to three times the risk of blood clots when compared to traditional levonorgestrel-containing pills.
The first study conducted at the Boston University of Medicine found that women aged 25 to 44 taking Yaz or Yasmin had a 2.3 times greater risk of suffering from blood clots – 30.8 per 100,000 women taking drospirenone (Yaz), compared to 12.5 per 100,000 for those on levonorgestrel. A study from the United Kingdom on women in the same age group found a three times greater risk – 23 per 100,000 women for the drospirenone group and 9.1 per 100,000 women taking levonorgestrel.
Despite the increased risk associated with Yaz and Yasmin, the overall chance of suffering a blood clot remains very small. Dr. Steven R. Goldstein, professor of obstetrics and gynecology at NYU, has stated that the findings may affect his prescribing of Yaz to new patients, but it would not force him to remove the birth control drug from current users that are doing well and have no family history of blood clots.
While this news of these studies is unlikely to make any major waves in birth control prescription practices, it reinforces the fact that people at an increased risk for blood clots should steer clear of birth control pills altogether.
Have you or a loved suffered harm as a result of a Yaz or Yasmin prescription? A Yaz attorney may be able to help counsel you with your situation.

NAYPYIDAW, Myanmar (AFP) – Myanmar's parliament will consider amending the country's constitution – which currently bars opposition leader Aung San Suu Kyi from becoming president – ahead of crucial elections next year, an official said Friday.
Suu Kyi is trying to change key sections of Myanmar's charter ahead of 2015 polls that are widely expected to be won by her National League for Democracy (NLD), if they are free and fair, after decades of disastrous military rule.
The move to moot constitutional reform was discussed during unprecedented talks between President Thein Sein and his political rivals, including Suu Kyi, as well as top army brass and election officials.
"They agreed to discuss the issue of amending the constitution in parliament, according to the law," presidential spokesman Ye Htut told reporters after the meeting in the capital Naypyidaw.
The NLD has focused on altering a provision in the constitution that ensures the military in the former junta-ruled nation has a veto on any amendment to the charter.
It believes revising the clause will open the way for further changes to other constitutional provisions, including the ring-fenced proportion of soldiers in parliament and the effective bar on Suu Kyi becoming president.
As it stands, she is ineligible because of a clause in the 2008 charter blocking anyone whose spouse or children are overseas citizens from leading the country. The Nobel laureate's late husband was British, as are her two sons.
To alter the constitution there needs to be support from a 75 per cent majority in parliament, and as unelected soldiers make up a quarter of the legislature they have the last say on any changes.
Ye Htut did not elaborate on which elements of the constitution were up for debate but said the talks had a "good result".
Suu Kyi, however, downplayed the outcome of the meeting in comments to reporters.
"I do not know how they stated the meeting was a success," she said, adding the NLD would like to see a more focussed discussion with a smaller group of people.
The extraordinary talks Friday – the first of their kind as the nation emerges from decades of outright military rule – saw Thein Sein and Suu Kyi walk into the meeting together.
The discussions came a day after the White House said US President Barack Obama spoke to Thein Sein and Suu Kyi about the elections, which are seen as a key test of democratic reforms under the quasi-civilian government.
Obama "underscored the need for an inclusive and credible process for conducting the 2015 elections" during telephone talks with the Myanmar president, said the White House in a statement.
The US leader also spoke to Suu Kyi about how Washington can help promote "a more inclusive political environment", less than a fortnight before he visits the once pariah nation for a major regional conference.

You're so special to me
Poem by: King webstar Da 1st
Status: Finished
Genre: Poetry
I'm blinded to the world with only your beauty I see.
Like baby blue jello your eyes is more prettier then the ocean to me.
A juicy kiss from you takes me to la la land.
Describing how much I love you is like trying to count the beach's sand.
I'll be your umbrella to cover you from the rain.
You made it disappear, like white out ,most of my pain.
Love is the symbol of you and I when we're together.
Our matching souls was meant to be forever.
Our love is infinite meaning forever plus more.
Into my heart you came and I told you to lock it after you close the door.
You bring the shine to my face like Lincoln on a brand new penny.
The amount of love I have for you is more then plenty.
Happiness for me wouldn't exist without you.
To take you as my Queen forever,a million times I do.
My love for you shoots through my body more 5000 bolts of electricity from a teaser gun.
We can go somewhere but every moment of being with you automatically fun.
It's you, so there is no need for you to ask me what I'm thinking of.
You might not be to everybody but to me you're special my love.

Reborn Dolls come with a birth certificate, instructions for care, a magnetic pacifier, Mohair conditioner and a faux formula sealed baby bottle.

The reborn dolls weigh about 5 1/2 pounds and are about 20″ long. They have been weighted with glass beads and polyfil for "that real baby feel".
